Chapter 821: The Fall of the Ancient Buddha (2)
Taking back the white elephant demon from his mount, Lu Yi searched around in the mortal world and found a huge bull demon with dark green horns.
When this guy was in human form, he was twelve feet tall, covered in heavy chitin armor, with amazing defense and even more powerful physical strength.
This fellow has no magical powers, no magic, no knowledge of the secrets of heaven, and no cultivation of the soul. He is just an iron fool who relies purely on brute force. However, the physical brute force of this iron fool is amazing and unparalleled, almost reaching the power of the Thousand Tribulations True Buddha.
In the Yin-Yang Heaven, this fellow's brute force has already approached the threshold of the Buddha realm.
Of course, because he does not cultivate supernatural powers, does not understand the mysteries of heaven, and does not cultivate his soul, this fellow has no other strengths except brute force. A true Buddha would have a thousand or ten thousand ways to kill him easily.
Even so, this guy's strength is scary enough.
However, although this flat-horned bull demon has amazing strength and looks ferocious, he is actually a real herbivore, and his nature is simple and honest, just like a real domesticated bull . Therefore, in the Red Dust Heaven, this flat-horned bull demon clan is one of the few clans that have not been suppressed by the old monk's Red Dust formation and can move freely.
Precisely because they only have brute force and no other magical powers, the potential of this clan of bull-horned demons is limited. The big guy released by Lu Yi is already the strongest patriarch-level being in their clan.
After releasing the Bull Demon, he gave a light shout, and the Bull Demon snorted loudly, shook his body, and with a dull sound of flesh and bones rubbing against each other, he turned into a green-skinned, flat-horned bull that was about two feet long from head to tail. He swung his tail, turned his head and glared at Lu Yi, then lowered his body slightly.
Lu Yi sat on the ox's back. The big ox swung its tail and rushed to the outside of Mofeng City in the blink of an eye. It landed heavily on the ground and stretched out its neck. With a "crack", it bit a big green pine tree on the side of the road and cut it in half. Large pieces of wood and leaves were chewed by him, making a loud noise.
Riding on a harmless-looking bull, Lu Yi's clothes began to glow with light and turned into an ordinary coarse cloth gown. He touched his head with his hand and found that he had grown a head of long hair. He then leisurely arrived at the gate of Mofeng City.
When the guard at the city gate saw Lu Yi, he snorted coldly with disapproval.
He was wearing coarse cloth, obviously coming from a poor family with no connections.
However, this big buffalo looks unusually fat. If we seize it and slaughter it in the evening, we will definitely be able to have a delicious hot pot meal.
A group of guards were planning to order Lu Yi to get off the bull and get out, but the big bull suddenly widened its eyes and snorted at them fiercely. The terrifying blood and energy surged like a tsunami, almost tearing the guards' bodies and souls apart. They kept bleeding from all seven orifices, and stood there stiffly like wooden sculptures.
By the time the big ox carried Lu Yi into Mofeng City, it took the guards a full quarter of an hour to finally wake up.
Their memories of an entire day had been violently erased.
Not only did they lose a day's memory, but the Bull Demon's method of erasing memories was too rough and crude, and the souls of these guards were also shattered by the fluctuations of his qi and blood. Their seemingly intact souls were actually riddled with holes, like broken pieces of porcelain barely held together by batter, which would disintegrate if left alone for a short while.
These guards won’t survive more than half a month!
Lu Yu naturally understood what the Bull Demon was doing. He gently patted the guy's neck and said softly, "The Buddha said that your clan... is simple, honest, kind, and has no ulterior motives... Your actions don't seem simple, honest, or kind at all."
The Bull Demon stuck out his tongue, regurgitated a piece of precious Ganoderma lucidum from his stomach, and chewed it slowly in his mouth.
He complained in a low voice. He had tried very hard and carefully to conserve his strength, but these guards were too weak. He had been extremely careful and had only blew a small breath...that was all!
Lu Yi said nothing.
He released his divine sense and locked onto Ben Yuan, who was pretending to be serious and walking quickly in the alley with a weird smile.
When Lu Yi entered the city, Yu Canglang was already sitting in a restaurant in the center of Mofeng City, which was in an excellent location. This restaurant was located diagonally opposite the City Lord's Mansion. Sitting on the ninth floor, one could even cross the wall of the City Lord's Mansion and spy on the movements of the surrounding courtyards of the City Lord's Mansion.
Early in the morning, Yu Canglang saw clearly all of Yu Dianfeng's brilliant moves.
Yu Canglang had a pale face, a slightly thin body, a pointed nose, thin lips, and a pair of narrow eyes with a gleam of light that never stayed on a single point for more than a breath. He broke open a peanut with a "crack", rubbed off the red skin, separated half of the pulp, and fed it to a pretty girl nestled in his arms.
The girl chewed the half peanut in her mouth carefully and swallowed it.
Yu Canglang waited for a few breaths, threw half a peanut in his hand into his mouth, and chewed it slowly. At the same time, he picked up a wine cup and put it to the girl's mouth.
The girl lowered her head and drank half the wine in the cup.
Yu Canglang waited for a few more breaths before drinking the remaining wine in the cup. Then he grabbed the wine jug and filled it with wine.
In the room, Yu Canglang's concubine's son, the Princess of Feilang County, Yu Gunao, was smiling, slightly hunched over, and standing aside carefully. Seeing Yu Canglang's actions, Yu Gunao was extremely disapproving in his heart, but his smile was very respectful and submissive, and he did not show this disapproval at all!
Yu Canglang's cultivation is already extremely powerful.
He practiced the genuine Buddhist Golden Body Technique, and his body was extremely strong, almost as strong as the furnace of the sun. There might be poison in the world that could poison him, but it would definitely be hard to find...
Therefore, Yu Canglang's behavior of asking his maid to eat half of a peanut to test the poison before eating it seemed a bit puzzling to Yu Gu'ao!
But thinking about Yu Canglang's temper and his methods... Yu Gu'ao's smile became more respectful and respectful, and he asked cautiously: "Father, do you want anything else? This Mofeng City is very remote and there is not much to produce. These wines and dishes are really shabby. I hope Father will not be offended."
Yu Canglang waved his hand, glanced at Yu Gu'ao's face, and then quickly looked around the room.
He said calmly: "Forget it, this time I came to Mofeng City, not for eating and drinking. Well, you are my biological son, so I have an opportunity to fulfill you... Do you have the courage and the heart to do it? What's next?"
Yu Gu'ao was stunned.
Yu Canglang suddenly sneaked to Feilang County last night, and then dragged Yu Gu'ao and came to Mofeng City stealthily.
Such secretive behavior has made Yu Gu'ao nervous for most of the day.
He thought carefully about it for a whole night and half a day, but he couldn't find anything he had done that might displease Yu Canglang - in the years since he was named the Princess of Feilang County, he had done nothing but bully the people of Feilang County and live a life of luxury and debauchery... Isn't this the daily routine of Yu Canglang's descendants?
If oppressing the people and indulging in extravagance and debauchery are crimes, then all the descendants of Yu Canglang would have been unforgivable!
After worrying for such a long time, Yu Canglang suddenly said, there is an opportunity for him?
Yu Gu'ao hesitated.
The suspicion and hesitation that came from Yu Canglang's blood made Yu Gu'ao speechless for a long time... He secretly glanced at Yu Canglang with the corner of his eye, but Yu Canglang was so experienced that he looked him up and down for a long time, but he couldn't see any possibility from Yu Canglang's dead-like pale face.
"Well, I don't dare." After hesitating for a long time, Yu Gu'ao finally decided to follow his heart.
He does not ask for any chance or fortune.
He only wanted to be able to sit safely on the throne of Princess Feilang, happily exploiting the people, living a life of luxury and debauchery, and would be satisfied with just that.
As for ideals in life and ambitions and the like... with my own talents and qualifications, with the identity of my biological mother, and especially with Yu Canglang's greedy, vicious, mean and insidious nature, haha, how could it be possible for me to have my turn if good things happen?
Yu Gu'ao smiled brightly: "Father, you see, I have no ambitions and my cultivation is low... Why don't you give this opportunity to my eldest brother? He is the eldest brother of our brothers and will inherit your throne in the future..."
Yu Canglang interrupted Yu Gu'ao and said, "Your elder brother? He will inherit my throne? Haha, don't even think about it, it's impossible... I can't die, and I can't give the throne to him... Not only him, but you bastards, don't even think about it!"
He picked up the wine cup and fed the girl in his arms half a cup of fine wine. After waiting for a while, he drank the remaining half cup of wine with a gulp. Yu Canglang pointed at Yu Gu'ao fiercely and said, "This opportunity is a great fortune, but I'm afraid there are risks involved. So, I'll let you try... Just tell me, are you willing to help me try, or will I just pretend that I don't have a son like you in this life!"
Yu Gu'ao's face turned pale.
very good!
The old bastard finally told the truth - the so-called chance and fortune may involve risks... No, not possibilities. With the old guy's bad nature, this matter is definitely unreliable and must involve great risks. That's why he himself didn't dare to try it, and wanted to let his not-so-favored illegitimate son take the risk!
Yu Gu'ao looked at Yu Canglang with a sad and angry face: "If the child dares..."
Yu Canglang pointed at Yu Gu'ao and said, "I don't have a son like you. I will destroy your cultivation and expel you from the family tree. Go out and find a place to settle down. I won't care whether you live or die!"
Yu Gu'ao thought of his throne as Princess Feilang, his beautiful wife and gorgeous concubines...especially, in the past month, he had just taken in twelve new concubines, each of them was extremely charming and stunningly beautiful!
If my cultivation was abolished and I were expelled from the family tree, I would definitely not have the chance to be a princess. I don't know which of my fierce and ferocious 'brothers' would get the throne, as I have my own wife and concubine!
After coughing lightly, Yu Gu'ao looked at Yu Canglang pitifully and asked, "Will he die?"
Yu Canglang frowned. He did not answer the question immediately. Instead, he looked around the house and outside the window for a long time before he said lightly, "Maybe? But according to my estimation, there is a chance of a real death, but... it won't be too outrageous... After all, the possibility of great opportunity and good fortune is greater!"
Yu Gu'ao hesitated for a long time again: "What if the child succeeds?"
Yu Canglang smiled, put the girl down, and gently patted Yu Gu'ao on the shoulder: "Then, I will give you the Black Wolf County and Wind Wolf County next door... The territories of those two counties are seven or eight times as large as your Flying Wolf County, and the population is more than ten times, which is enough for you to live happily."
Yu Gu'ao gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and laughed dryly: "So, wealth and honor must be sought in danger? Uh, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Yu Canglang looked around quickly for a while...
Although the restaurant was guarded by his trusted guards, and there were more than a dozen heavy formations blocking the surroundings, and he even ambushed an elite guard of the Greedy Wolf Country 30,000 miles outside Mofeng City, with enough military strength to wipe out the entire Feilang County in just a quarter of an hour, he was still extremely careful and meticulous in patrolling for a long time, and then he took out a palm-sized piece of golden bone from his sleeve.
This is clearly a human skull, but it is only one foot square, which shows that the head of this person must have been extremely large and his body must have been quite majestic. This skull is as jade-like in color, faintly transparent, and pure gold, as if it were carved from a piece of golden amber. There are faint traces of grayish-white light entwined in it, and the thin white light outlines tens of thousands of tiny characters as thin as a fly's head.
These fonts are definitely not any of the characters that Yu Gu'ao has learned.
But as soon as Yu Gu'ao's eyes came into contact with these words, he naturally understood the meaning behind them.
A stern force of suppression came towards him, and a suffocating sense of evil and distortion surged into his soul... Yu Gu'ao, whose cultivation was not profound and who had just entered the realm of Great Bodhisattva, turned pale in an instant, groaned, and two lines of hot blood spurted out of his nostrils.
"What is this?" Yu Gu'ao asked in a hoarse voice.
"Well, the bones of an ancient Buddha." Yu Canglang muttered in a low voice: "Of course, what this is is not important. What is important is that this 'Nine Sons Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuan Mo Mi' is recorded in it... This secret method is powerful, strange and magical, and it is incredible to the extreme... I counted the many children carefully, and you are the most suitable one!"
In just two sentences, Yu Gu'ao had already understood from the bone fragment what the so-called 'Nine Sons Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuan Mo Secret' was.
bloody.
evil.
Mysterious.
It is even more against the ethics of heaven, earth and human beings!
This method is extremely powerful, extremely quick to master, and full of mysteries. It has the power to turn the world upside down and change the destiny.
The minimum requirement for its practitioners is to have more than nine biological sons!
A slightly better claim is that these nine biological sons each have more than nine biological sons!
What's even more wonderful is that if these ninety-nine eighty-one biological grandchildren each have nine or more great-grandchildren, then they will have excellent qualifications and superb talents for cultivation!
Nine biological sons, eighty-one biological grandchildren, seven hundred and twenty-nine great-grandchildren... In short, and so on, as long as it is nine times nine, it can be stacked almost infinitely!
These flesh and blood relatives were taught secret methods, and they were allowed to practice, strengthen their three souls and seven spirits, and condense into a small Dulu demon soul. Secret medicine was also used to strengthen their muscles, bones, blood, and qi, stimulate their vitality and potential, let all the vitality be transformed into the demon soul, and nurture the demon soul to be extremely powerful!
Then, he bewitched them with words, provoked them with interests, and used various means to make these great-grandchildren kill and devour each other. In the end, just like raising a Gu, only one person was left.
Eighty-one grandchildren and nine sons are all the same.
Afterwards, the only remaining son, grandson, and great-grandson... let them commit incest and retaliate, the grandson killed the father, the father killed the grandfather, and finally they got the most powerful, the most evil, the most murderous, and the most resentful demon soul, and then imprisoned it with secret methods, processed it with the most cruel and bloody means, devoured it alive bit by bit, and cut it into nine pieces.
After that, he divided his own soul into nine parts and merged them with the nine demon souls.
Once accomplished, he would take away all the luck and fate of these sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons, all their talents, qualifications, lifespans, and potentials… In a very short period of time, the final Nine-son Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuanmo would possess earth-shaking and terrifying magical powers, and with rapid progress in future practice, he would be able to become a Buddha within a short period of time!
Yu Gu'ao was sweating profusely and his body was shaking uncontrollably.
What a terrifying skill!
Of course, he was trembling not because of the horror of this technique, but because after this technique was finally formed, the Nine-Child Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuan Mo that was generated could be controlled by others and refined into a clone puppet. From then on, his life and death would be in the hands of others and he would not be free!
Yu Canglang said slowly: "Among your many descendants, Yu Tiejun is the most suitable one. His talent is ordinary, but he has many children and grandchildren, and there are thousands of great-grandchildren. It would be a great bargain to use him to practice this secret method."
"When he succeeds, you will use the secret method left in his soul to refine and absorb it. This Nine-son Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuan Mo..."
Yu Gu'ao knelt on the ground with a thud. He said tremblingly, "Father, there is really no problem in letting my unfortunate son Yu Tiejun specialize in this secret method... He has many children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and they are the most suitable candidates to practice this secret method... Besides, his aptitude is ordinary, and his mother... I have been tired of her for many years and have no feelings for her at all. Even if Yu Tiejun's lineage is wiped out, I will not hesitate or feel heartbroken!"
Yu Canglang raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to say?"
Yu Gu'ao's body trembled as he spoke cautiously, "Look at this secret method, if it goes well, it will be successful in at least forty-nine days. It is extremely fast and unbelievable... But, after I subdue that unlucky kid from Yutie Army... I will give him, I will give him... to you, father?"
Yu Gu'ao was terrified to the extreme.
This secret method clearly states that the eventually formed little Du Lu Yuan Mo can be forcibly absorbed and subdued by Yu Gu'ao and used for his own purposes... If this is the case, then is it possible that after the Yu Tie army finally succeeds, if he, Yu Gu'ao, subdues this little Du Lu Yuan Mo, he will eventually become a delicious fruit and be harvested by his own father ?
Based on his understanding of Yu Canglang, this is very likely!
Yu Canglang smiled slightly and patted Yu Gu'ao's shoulder gently: "Don't worry, as long as you can keep your mouth shut, you won't be in any danger at all."
After a moment's silence, Yu Canglang said calmly, "To be honest, I cannot tell you the origin of this secret technique. However, this technique is too powerful and too vicious. I dare not practice it myself, so I will let you try it."
"If you succeed, it will prove that this secret method has no other hidden dangers. I will naturally practice this secret technique."
"But if I want to practice this secret technique, I must naturally choose better materials!"
Giving Yu Gu'ao a look of disdain, Yu Canglang said in a cold voice: "I might as well tell you that I have already selected nine of your brothers with excellent talents and qualifications... You are not qualified to be my target for harvesting. After all, the stronger the qualifications and talents of this demon soul, the more powerful the final small capital demon will be!"
"How can you, Yu Gu'ao, deserve to occupy a place?" Yu Canglang said it in an extremely bloody and naked manner.
But the more Yu Canglang said this, the more relieved Yu Gu'ao felt.
He looked at Yu Canglang and smiled, "Father is right. I am a waste. Why should father waste his energy and thoughts on me? It is a great honor for me to be able to test the law for you!"
Yu Canglang nodded slowly and pointed at Yu Gu'ao: "Go, pass on the method of refining the devil soul to Yu Tiejun and his descendants. Hey... I will be watching you all the time... You, be careful. If you succeed, you will be rewarded. If you fail..."
Yu Gu'ao shuddered and patted his chest vigorously: "Don't worry, I won't fail, I won't fail... uh..."
After hesitating for a while, Yu Gu'ao lowered his voice and said, "If I succeed, uh, the Jin Xianglian that Big Brother loves the most... Father, can you let me try my hand at that, too?"
Yu Canglang narrowed his eyes and looked at Yu Gu'ao with a half-smile: "Oh, you're already thinking about the people around your eldest brother? Haha, if you succeed, he... haha, then, if you want his women and his belongings, just rob them."
Yu Gu'ao's face turned pale again and his body trembled slightly.
Very good, got it.
His eldest brother, Yu Canglang's most talented and virtuous son, has already been included in the list of practitioners!
Good, very good, really... terrific, extremely good!
Thinking of the beautiful women around his eldest brother, who were the top beauties plundered from all over the country of Tanlang, Yu Gu'ao was so excited that his blood boiled. He jumped out of the restaurant in a hurry, called a group of guards, and swaggered towards the City Lord's Mansion of Mofeng City.
Looking at Yu Gu'ao's back, Yu Canglang smiled slightly and filled his own glass of wine.
He muttered in a low voice: "If it succeeds... according to the records of this secret method... hehe, what are a few descendants? These things are just debt collectors that I accidentally created for a moment of pleasure. I use them to exchange for the entire Shen Yin Dynasty, for this entire world, I won't lose anything!"
After a few chuckles, Yu Canglang took out a still beating heart that was as crystal clear as glass and golden in color. On this heart, strands of turbid black-gray flames flowed slowly. As the heart beat, these thin flames occasionally turned into a distorted human face. At first glance, it looked like a kind-looking bald old monk.
“Thirty-three?” Yu Canglang looked at the golden heart that was as big as a sea bowl and whispered, “What a weird name… What’s your origin? Old man… The secret method you gave me, are you setting a trap for me?”
"But, with only one heart left...what else can you do? Huh? What else can you do?"
"Could it be that you can still plot against me?"
With a few cold sneers, Yu Canglang put away the heart, glanced at the girl standing beside him, stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, stay away from this Mofeng City... Yu Guoao, that idiot, don't make any mistakes in your practice and trap me ... This kind of inexplicable secret method, tsk, you still have to be careful, be more careful!"
With a single blow, the girl was reduced to ashes!
Yu Canglang laughed nervously: "Haha, you still have to be careful. You can't blame me for listening to so many things you shouldn't have listened to... Come on, hurry up and leave the city. Get at least 100,000 miles away from here!"
Yu Canglang hurriedly rushed out of the restaurant with a large group of guards and left quickly through the back alley.
At the same time, Lu Yi was riding a big bull and slowly passing by the main entrance of the restaurant.
Across this magnificently decorated, vast restaurant, Lu Yi took a deep look in the direction of Yu Canglang - he saw Yu Canglang clearly, but did not react.
Yu Canglang suddenly felt his hair stand on end for no apparent reason. He shuddered and his eyes became dazed. He quickened his pace and ran away in a flash. He ran out of the city and headed towards the direction where his elite guards were hiding.
Lu Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Back then, I really didn't realize that you, Yu Canglang, would be like this... Haha, was I blind back then, or were you originally a good person, but over the years, you gradually became bad like this?"
At the west gate of the City Guard House in Mofeng City, a large group of guards had already knelt on the ground with their foreheads pressed tightly against the ground.
Yu Gu'ao stood at the door with his hands behind his back, shouting, "Where is my son Tiejun? Your father is here, why don't you come out to greet him? Tsk tsk, and all of my grandchildren and great-grandchildren, get out here right away."
