Chapter 710 Exile (3)
For a true immortal, time is really not a very valuable thing.
Ever since Monk Zhencan and his entourage slipped away in disgrace, and Lu Yi extorted a large sum of merit from the two Buddhas, nine years had passed in a flash before he knew it.
The huge Qionghua Mountains have gradually become more popular.
As Lu Qi sent his disciples to travel around and preach, children with outstanding talents were constantly discovered by the wandering disciples and directly accepted into the Qionghua Mountain sect.
Lu Fu also imitated the existing rules of the Liangyi Tian Buddhist sect and rebuilt the rules in his own territory.
In the Qionghua Mountain and Liuxia River, cities, towns, villages, and forces all came to worship under the Qionghua Ancient Temple. Every year, they would search their own territory and select a batch of seeds with the best talent and send them to Qionghua Mountain.
Therefore, in just nine years, among the nearly 5,000 temples of all sizes and tens of thousands of branch temples in Qionghua Mountain, each of them had thousands or hundreds of little monks running around.
Outside the entrances and exits of various mountain roads, there are specially set up incense halls, which are also crowded with people. Every day, countless believers come from far and wide to devoutly burn incense, worship Buddha, and make offerings.
In just nine years, the Qionghua Mountain lineage has absorbed countless incense and spiritual power.
Billowing green smoke rose into the sky, and above the main peak of Qionghua Mountain, a faint auspicious cloud of nearly a thousand miles in size had condensed. The phantom of a short and sturdy Prison-Suppressing Pagoda, entangled by a wind dragon and a water dragon, was looming in the auspicious cloud, echoing the upgraded 108-story pagoda on the top of the mountain, emitting a subtle Prison-Suppressing Force Field that enveloped all directions.
Above the Qionghua Mountains, looking with the great supernatural eye, from east to west, one can see eighteen huge whirlpools of Buddha's light slowly rotating. With every blink of an eye, they swallow up a terrifying amount of immortal spirit energy.
In the eighteen vortexes of Buddha light with a diameter of more than one million miles, the terrifying shadow of Buddha can be seen looming.
Near these eighteen whirlpools of Buddha's light, there are hundreds of millions of layers of light that are as thin as a cicada's wing but heavy and thick. Each layer has its own mysterious Buddha's light, covering the entire Qionghua Mountains.
Nine years ago, the Prison-Suppressing Xuanguan Buddha stepped forward and used favors to invite the Miaoxin Xuanji Buddha, who was the best in Buddhist formations, to upgrade the mountain defense formation for Mount Qionghua.
With the help of three mid-grade innate spiritual treasures handed over by two unlucky Buddhas, and the infinite essence provided by the super beautiful jade vein left by the Queen Mother Qionghua under the Qionghua Mountains, Miaoxin Xuanji Buddha performed amazing methods and spent six years to finally set up a terrifyingly powerful "Hell-Suppressing Reincarnation Buddha Array".
The current power of this great formation can pose a fatal threat to those who have just entered the Buddha realm, or those who have just broken through to the Heavenly Lord realm in Dao Court!
If we ignore the killing power of this formation and only talk about its defensive power, with the help of the endless jade essence provided by the underground super mineral vein, even an ordinary "senior" Buddha or Heavenly King would find it difficult to break through this mountain-guarding formation head-on.
This formation ranks among the top 1,000 in terms of defensive power in the entire Buddhist community.
But this is only the most basic power of the formation now.
In those eighteen giant whirlpools of Buddha's light, there were also nurturing the corpses of 108 demons and evil monsters that were killed by the Prison-Suppressing Black Light Buddha in the past, whose cultivation levels when alive were comparable to those of great Bodhisattvas .
The corpses of these evil demons were already terrifying beings at the level of great bodhisattvas when they were alive.
Whether it is a monster or a demon, the strength of their physical body is not inferior to the golden body of Buddhism. Even some species with special bloodlines have physical bodies so strong and talented that they are simply terrifying.
In this great formation, with the nourishment of the infinite immortal spirit energy drawn from the formation and the jade essence from the underground, and with the help of the pressure of the formation to temper his body day and night, his body will be terribly improved every day.
According to Miaoxin Xuanji Buddha's design, as long as there is enough time, the corpses of these monsters and demons will be completely refined, and their physical strength will be comparable to that of ordinary Buddhas... Because of the lack of spiritual intelligence, their magical powers and combat power are certainly far inferior to those of real Buddhas, but with the help of the power of the formation, they are enough to pose a fatal threat to "senior" Buddhas or Heavenly Kings!
Therefore, Miaoxin Xuanji Buddha called this large formation the 'Hell-Suppressing Samsara Buddha Formation'. If you enter the formation, it is equivalent to entering the reincarnation, and you will have no say in your life and death.
In short, with this great formation, Lu Yi's foundation is completely stable.
Although this formation offended the two Buddhas, Dragon Elephant Treasure Buddha and Pure Land Joy Buddha...but Lu Yi really didn't care.
During the three years since the formation was built, Lu Yi was neither anxious nor busy, nor did he practice hard in seclusion. He spent the whole day with Qingyou, Qingning and Qingmeng, exploring the wonders of the Qionghua Mountains. He saw countless wonderful and beautiful scenery, and witnessed countless exotic flowers, plants, rare birds and animals.
In such a leisurely, natural and stress-free atmosphere, Lu Yi's cultivation had unexpectedly broken through to the tenth level of True Immortal. His True Immortal status had also been completely integrated with the Fantian Seal. He could control this natal Buddhist treasure as easily as with his own arm and was extremely agile when using it.
At the same time, in the southern region of Liangyi Tian, the southernmost land.
The Southern Region was originally the territory of evil spirits. Three thousand years ago, the Taoist court and the Buddhist sect joined forces to wipe out the monsters and evil spirits in Liangyi Heaven, destroyed their Taoist lineage, and took over the entire fertile land of the Southern Region.
Logically, the demons and monsters in Liangyi Heaven should be killed and their bloodlines should be completely cut off.
but……
The perspective of a cultivator on issues is different from that of an ordinary person.
In Liangyi Heaven, those monsters and demons with strange bloodlines always produce some rare treasures that cannot be provided by nature.
Just like the thousand-year-old monsters among the evil spirits, as long as they survive long enough, thousand-year-old monster beads will condense in their bodies... These thousand-year-old monster beads are the best materials for refining various "dream" and "psychedelic" fairy tools and Buddhist treasures!
Especially those infatuated men and women of the Great Joy lineage of Buddhism, they can use the magic Buddhist treasures refined with these monster beads to create amazing and erotic scenes, whether they are used to kill the enemy, to attain enlightenment, or simply to enjoy and add interest, they have infinite magical uses!
For example, the bone demons among the evil demons, as long as they live for more than 100,000 years, a spirit bone with the purest and most lively aura of life in time will condense in their bodies.
This natal spiritual bone is used for sword practice. It is extremely hard, sharp, and naturally spiritual. It is one of the best materials for sword immortals to refine their natal immortal swords.
If this life spirit bone is used to refine other tools, it will also be of infinite use. For example, it can be used to refine the "God-enchanting Banner", "Soul-calling Banner", or even the handle of the "Relic Treasure Banner" commonly used by Buddhist masters, which can increase the power by at least 50%.
Even more, the pure life energy contained in this life-bearing spirit bone , if it falls into the hands of alchemy masters of Buddhism or Taoism, can be used to refine elixirs that can turn bones into flesh and bring the dead back to life!
Another example is the bloodthirsty bat demon among the evil demons. It has a pair of bat wings on its back. The Taoist sect likes to use them to refine immortal artifacts such as "Wind and Thunder Wings". The longer the bloodthirsty bat demon lives, the more powerful and faster the wind and thunder wings refined from the bat wings on its back will be!
Once upon a time, there was a bloodthirsty bat demon that had lived for hundreds of millions of years. The wings behind it were slain by a mighty Dao Court. After the wings were refined into wind and thunder wings and worn by a small True Immortal, its speed actually surpassed that of all the mighty Heavenly Lords… Unless a sage or Buddha Lord took action, no one could catch up with it. The formations and prohibitions that were usually enough to trap Buddhas and Heavenly Lords were unable to stop the escape of this pair of wind and thunder wings!
From the above, we can see how attractive the rare materials on the monsters and demons are to the monks of Taoism and Buddhism.
So in a great war three thousand years ago, all the powerful masters of monsters and evil spirits were killed, and among their descendants, a group of those with excellent bloodlines and strong minds were carefully selected by the two powerful men and thrown into the wild land of Liangyi Heaven to be raised!
The Yin-Yang Heaven, like the worlds in the lower world, is a vibrant, 'living' world.
He is still constantly absorbing the chaotic power outside the clear and bright void, and constantly expanding his territory in all directions.
The Southern Region is merely the "cultivated land" that has been opened up and developed by various evil sects over the countless years. It is a fertile land that has been cultivated with countless efforts and hard work.
However, in the south of the Southern Region, the vast wilderness is the new territory that has slowly grown out of Liang Yi Tian over the past countless years.
The creation of the world is mysterious and unpredictable.
These newly grown wild areas are full of dangers and opportunities. They may contain some unprecedented wild beasts and terrible poisonous insects, but they may also contain some innate spiritual objects and rare medicines.
One after another, carefully selected evil demon clans were thrown into the wilderness, allowed to recuperate in the wild land, reproduce their bloodlines, and "multiply various rare materials"!
As for those carefully selected evil demons... because they are needed to produce excellent, even top-grade rare materials, so they are carefully selected excellent bloodlines.
Because the wild land is extremely dangerous, these evil demons are all carefully selected to have strong minds and tough characters.
His bloodline is excellent, so his cultivation level increases extremely fast.
With a strong character, one will always remember the blood feud.
Often, among the evil demons in the wild land, a few gifted demons and giant monsters would emerge, gather a group of followers and thugs to counterattack the southern region...
The Taoist and Buddhist sects also set up the Demon-Suppressing Ridge at the border of the Southern Region and the Wilderness to suppress and monitor these captive demons.
From time to time, the true immortals and monks stationed in the Demon-Suppressing Ridge would receive orders from certain major sects and religions of the Taoist Temple and Buddhism, and would regularly send out harvesting teams to go deep into the wilderness to collect certain consumables.
While Lu Yi was enjoying himself in Qionghua Mountain, Yin Yuan, Bai Yuan and his companions had been tortured to a state worse than death in Zhenmo Ridge and were almost in a desperate situation.
