Chapter 834: Nine Lotus Alliance (2)
The thirty-six divine generals have cause and effect.
They were orphans and were adopted by Yu Changle, the palace guard. They learned literature and martial arts since childhood. When they grew up, they followed Yinyuan and became his closest guards and confidants.
Later, Lu Yi rose to power in the imperial court of Jishengtian Dayin, and Yinyuan bestowed upon him thirty-six divine generals as ceremonial guards.
Therefore, the fate of Yu Dianhu and others was closely linked to Lu Yi.
They followed Lu Yi all the way from Jisheng Heaven to Yuanling Heaven, from Yuanling Heaven to Liangyi Heaven, from Qionghua Mountain all the way to the southern border of Zhenmo Ridge, and then to the ancient city of Loulan... If there were a person with great supernatural powers who could predict the secrets of heaven and deduce fate, the luck of the thirty-six people would be almost integrated, and the trajectories of their fate would be exactly the same!
This is a ready-made introduction to magical powers!
If you do something to any one of the thirty-six people, you can easily implicate the others!
So, this is what the Thirty-Three Years Cicada did - he used Yu Canglang as an intrigue, set up the terrifying magic skill of 'Nine Sons Ghost Father Xiaodu Lu Yuan Mo Mi', and used blood as a link, wanting to catch the thirty-six people and their relatives in one fell swoop!
Because the thirty-six people are the emperors of the Shen Yin Dynasty and the rulers of the thirty-five feudal states, after capturing them in one fell swoop, with the help of their destiny, they can easily harvest the entire Shen Yin Dynasty and countless ordinary people in the vast world!
This was a relatively perfect plan. Without making any noise, he could collect all the "resources" that he had kept for countless years, and turn them into a support for his own survival.
You must know that the cicada has been undergoing tribulation for thirty-three years!
As for this thing called disaster, no one knows where it comes from and no one knows where it will end. It starts without form or trace and ends without any sign or foreshadowing. It can start from a tiny thing and become a catastrophe that sweeps across the world.
Therefore, for those who are undergoing tribulation, no matter how brilliant or ingenious the means they use to avoid the tribulation, the smaller the noise, the better, and the shallower the involvement with oneself, the better - therefore, Thirty-Three Years Cicada would use such a circuitous method, using this almost subtle way, starting with Yu Canglang, letting him practice magic, and then offering sacrifice to all the people of the entire Shen Yin Dynasty!
In this way , the one who comes to the fore is Yu Canglang, and the one who will suffer the disaster in the end will also be Yu Canglang, while he, the Thirty-Three Years Cicada, can stay firmly behind the scenes and watch quietly that the catastrophe will crush Yu Canglang and all the living beings involved in Yu Canglang into pieces, and finally he, the Thirty-Three Years Cicada, can rise up and escape.
But the methods used by the senior brother behind Yu Dianhu are much more brutal!
They don't need to survive the calamity, they want to bring the calamity to the Thirty-Three Years Cicada!
So they directly used Yu Dianhu to tamper with the bodies of these mighty generals... No one knew when it happened, maybe it was a cup of imperial wine as a reward, or when Yu Dianhu was preaching, or even when a small feng shui formation was adjusted near the palace.
In short, the thirty-six Shenwu generals and all the people of the Shenyin Dynasty have had the 'secret bone view' implanted in their bodies!
At this moment, as soon as the 'senior brother' behind Yu Dianhu launched his attack, all thirty-five mighty generals turned into skeleton gods and demons!
As their qi and fate were intertwined, Yu Canglang was also sucked tightly by the secret method of "White Bone Viewing", unable to escape - Yu Canglang also practiced the secret of Xiaodu Lu Yuanmo of the Nine Sons Ghost Father. This secret method, no matter how the Thirty-Three Years Cicada tried to cover it up or how he used clever tricks, always had a connection with him that could never be completely severed.
Through this connection, this terrifying and evil secret method of "viewing bones" has also firmly locked onto the Thirty-Three Years Cicada!
No matter where he hides.
Even if there is a precious treasure to protect it.
Let him share his achievements with nature.
Even though the Thirty-Three Years Cicada has rich experience in struggling to escape from "life disasters" many times.
Under the actions of 'Senior Brother' and the strange beings on the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat, the Thirty-Three Year Cicada was locked, the 'White Bone Temple' locked him, and the calamity of the 'life calamity' that was brewing around this world also followed this lock and suddenly gathered here!
The secret method of the thirty-three-year cicada to avoid disaster is very simple.
The calamity in his destiny is like a bow and arrow, and he is like a target.
The sharp arrow from the divine bow was whistling towards him, and his target was destined to be pierced, or even smashed to pieces... So, he took a shortcut. He raised countless living beings, let them be imbued with his breath, and then hid himself, turning these living beings into targets that were exactly the same as him!
Tens, hundreds, thousands...
With so many targets standing here, no matter how powerful the divine bow and arrows are, after destroying ten, a hundred, or a thousand targets, there will be a day when their power is exhausted... When the power of this 'life calamity' is completely exhausted, he will officially survive the calamity in his thirty-third year, and can live a carefree life and return to the good days of the human world!
However, 'Senior Brother' and the others on the Nine Lotus Boat directly used secret techniques to lock him down.
It was as if in the darkness of night, the Thirty-Three Years Cicada had hidden in the darkest secret place, searching for his enemy who had lost his position and was ready to attack randomly to vent his anger... Then someone suddenly lit a huge bonfire next to the Thirty-Three Years Cicada, illuminating his body, and then shouted loudly with a tweeter - 'Hey, look here, your target is here'!
This is really terrible!
Even before the 'magic bow and sharp arrow' used to hunt the thirty-three-year cicada was aimed at him, this group of bastards who had lit a bonfire and shouted through a loud speaker put their swords on his neck one after another!
This is very angry.
The thirty-three-year-old cicada is also a decisive person.
Otherwise, he would not have brazenly brought so many high-ranking Buddhists from his hiding place into the ancient city of Loulan to sacrifice them for this disaster.
A very shrill cicada cry rose into the sky, and the entire world suddenly turned into a blurry blue-gold color!
The light, as clear and transparent as the finest glass, illuminates the world.
Everyone looked up at the sky and saw that it had turned into a crystal clear cicada shell - the world where Lu Yi and others were now, this vast world where even a powerful being who had reached the peak of the Ten Tribulations True Buddha would need hundreds or thousands of years to fly in a straight line from east to west and from south to north, was just a cicada shell!
I don't know how many times the cicada has shed its shell during the thirty-three-year cicada's life-threatening calamity in the past years.
In short, this kind of strange chaotic species, every time they go through a serious catastrophe of their life, they will shed a layer of cicada shell - either turn into the supreme innate spiritual treasure, or turn into an extremely powerful innate magical power. Each cicada shell is extremely precious, containing infinite power of creation and vitality!
This piece of heaven and earth was created by the Thirty-Three-Year Cicada using his own cicada shell, the method of opening up the Buddhist kingdom he had learned, and the help of the unique natural environment of the ancient city of Loulan!
The energy of this Buddhist country had nothing to do with his thirty-three-year-old cicada body.
The power and the great principles he used to open up this Buddhist country had little to do with himself... All the power and the great principles came from the fellow disciples of Thirty-Three Years Cicada and his 'senior brother' who died here that year!
Swallowing its essence and blood, swallowing its cultivation, swallowing its Taoism, after melting them into one furnace, it injected them into this cicada shell, and with the help of the power of a certain calamity of its own life as a trigger, it transformed into this vast world full of vitality!
Even over the years, the Thirty-Three-Year Cicada has continued to absorb all kinds of creatures from the outside world.
There are creatures who accidentally enter the ancient city of Loulan.
Some people intentionally release various insects.
There are also unlucky guys like Ah Hu and Yu Dian Hu who were exploring the ancient city of Loulan and accidentally got lost and were dragged into this place!
These creatures multiplied and grew in this world, their population rapidly expanding, and gradually, their numbers and their overall comprehensive strength had satisfied the cicada's need to survive the calamity for thirty-three years.
So, the thirty-three-year cicada started!
And the 'senior brother' who had been waiting for him and hunting him down for countless years also took action!
Seeing the transparent, dimly lit cicada shell, Yu Dianhu murmured, "Brother, your true form is indeed very beautiful... Haha, it is said that the thirty-three-year-old cicada is the most capable creature in the world at seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster. Its body, which has been tempered by many calamities of its own life, is the most solid material for refining weapons."
"You owe us something, so pay it back with your true self!"
A sharp, hoarse roar resounded throughout the world: "I owe you? Ha, ha, I used my mind and my means to lure you thieves in here and kill you... I won this opportunity with my own means, what do I owe you?"
"The truth of the world is very simple, that is, the strong prey on the weak!"
"I am strong, so I use your flesh and blood, as well as your cultivation, as a trigger for me to escape the disaster... Is there anything I did wrong?"
"What are you doing today? You just took a fancy to me and wanted to hunt me down, use my body as materials, and satisfy your selfish desires... How is your action different from what I did back then?"
"Survival of the fittest!"
"Stop making excuses for me, stop trying to find the moral high ground... Don't you know what your true hearts are like? If you take them out, aren't they all the same color?"
The sound of the thirty-three-year-old cicada shook the earth to pieces, twisted the void, and threw the Dao rhyme and spiritual inspiration of the entire world into chaos.
Yu Canglang's body was burning rapidly, and he was howling miserably. The nine demon shadows slowly merged inward and turned into one shadow. Then, under the rapid burning of the white Buddha flame, it quickly turned into a white bone relic the size of a human head, and then slowly condensed into the final white bone god and demon!
Thirty-six white-bone gods and demons were suspended in the air, forming a perfect circle.
Their energy is in harmony with each other and they echo each other, like an extremely strong shackle, locking down this world and this void. It is also a destiny, a life trajectory, a mark of existence that exists between existence and non-existence, firmly trapped in the circle formed by the thirty-six white bone gods and demons!
The original form of the Thirty-Three Year Cicada was locked because of this circular formation .
No one knows how far his real body is from this world, or even whether his real body is in the ancient city of Loulan.
But because of this circular formation's lock, he...can't escape!
The sound of the pipa was piercing and sharp. The faceless woman who played the pipa laughed and said, "Well, fellow Taoist Thirty-three, since things have come to this, why don't you show up and have a good talk?"
Strands of dark Buddha light emerged.
No emotion.
No fluctuations at all.
Cold and severe.
Respect and hierarchy.
This is a Buddhist atmosphere that is completely different from the Buddhist teachings of Liangyi Tian.
This line of Buddhism gives people the feeling that it is like a precisely structured, strictly controlled machine, where every part, from top to bottom, has its place, and if there is even a slight deviation from the norm, the whole thing will be shattered!
This line of Buddhism even gives people a feeling that Buddhism itself is already a living thing!
Within the framework of this lineage of Buddhism, even the highest leader of this lineage of Buddhism is just a larger gear and a stronger screw in this framework.
Once he is fixed in a certain position, he can only act according to the rules of this framework.
It cannot be exceeded, it cannot be changed, and there cannot be any deviation or mistake.
Otherwise, even if you are the leader of this lineage of Buddhism, if you slightly touch the operating rules of this framework, you are doomed to be shattered into pieces and reduced to ashes.
Lu Yi felt the aura emanating from this line of Buddhist teachings, and felt his hair stand on end.
Compared with the Prison-Suppressing Buddha Dharma of the Prison-Suppressing Xuanguan Buddha, the two give people a somewhat similar feeling, both are filled with extremely powerful and irresistible terrifying power - but the Prison-Suppressing Buddha Dharma only suppresses with extremely powerful force... and this line of Buddhism is not suppression, not a blow, but a kind of emotionless, purely rational... extremely mechanical assimilation!
This feeling is very bad.
Lu Yi subconsciously took three steps back, each step taking him back a million miles.
But even if he retreated quickly, at this moment, the black Buddha light had already fallen from the sky, along the empty shell of the cicada, illuminating the world. As long as you are between heaven and earth, you can't dodge, it's impossible to avoid.
The deep sound of Buddhist chanting resounded through the sky.
One by one, the bodies of monks with dark-gold skin and stiff faces quietly emerged in the black Buddha light.
The bodies of these monks give people the feeling that they are mummies that have been buried in the desert for tens or hundreds of thousands of years... their bodies are completely empty, yet they have perfectly preserved their appearance before death.
Moreover, a strange power fills these empty shells.
They were still breathing, their hearts were beating, and there was even a sticky liquid flowing through their blood. If you listened carefully, you could hear their heartbeats and blood... everything was the same as that of a living person!
But Lu Yi was sure that these guys had been dead for many years.
Yu Dianhu's bony face suddenly froze. He stared at the three old monks in the front of the monks floating in the air and said in a hoarse voice, "Master, Uncle Master, Uncle Master!"
The roar of anger like thunder shook the void, and Yu Dianhu hissed, "Pushan, you bastard...how dare you, how dare you..."
The sharp voice of the thirty-three-year-old cicada rang out from all directions of the world: "Why shouldn't I dare? They are just some dead bodies... Do you still have feelings for these bodies? Haha, feelings are really meaningless."
"Okay, stop showing off your friendship here. I don't believe that people who come from the Buddhist sect in that heavenly world would have such a thing as 'emotion'... It's a cheap thing and not worth existing."
"You came here to hunt me. I admit that you were half successful."
"But you want to hunt me? Haha, it's not that easy... First, pick up these guys who are used as waste, okay? Otherwise, don't even think about seeing my real body so easily!"
"Hey, hey, hey...be careful, be careful, don't try to kill the tiger but end up getting hurt by it...hehe!"
"I understand. You are my destiny's great tribulation this time!"
"You are my calamity!"
The cries of the thirty-three-year-old cicadas faded away with the wind, and the three old monks who stood at the front of the countless monks and were obviously the most respected opened their eyes at the same time. Their eyes were dark, emitting a dazzling black light, like a burning little black sun.
They raised their right hands at the same time and gently pressed towards Yu Dianhu and the other thirty-six white-bone gods and demons.
The void vibrates.
Overbearing, cold, ruthless, without any fluctuations, like a guillotine about to fall on the execution ground, the murderous Buddha power of "equality of all beings" surged in, tearing the void, shattering time, destroying all the rhyme and spiritual inspiration of this world, turning everything into nothingness, and fiercely crushing the thirty-six white bone gods and demons!
The thirty-six white-bone gods and demons emitted dazzling white light all over their bodies, which collided fiercely with the dark Buddha light emitted from the palms of the three old monks.
The collision of black and white is like the annihilation of positive and negative.
An incredible destructive force surged up, and the entire Shenghaojing was annihilated in an instant. The land within a radius of one billion miles turned into a huge black hole. There was nothingness inside, and absolutely no object existed.
The lotus platform of immortality behind Lu Yi's head emitted a faint bright light, suppressing the void a hundred feet around him.
This is the only safe place in this billion-mile black hole, bright and warm.
The Taoist priest stopped his frantic attack because of this blow. He turned around and turned into a transparent black 'shadow'. He laughed loudly with a hint of amazement: "Master Pudu, your White Bone View is indeed extremely powerful!"
The Taoist applauded and said, "You have such power just by reaping the people of the Shenyin Dynasty. When we are done and leave the ancient city of Loulan, we can reap another 1,800 heavens and turn all their lives into bones... Your cultivation is incredible!"
Yu Dianhu said calmly: "The power is enough, but the backlash is also very strong..."
Before he finished speaking, the thirty-six white bone gods and demons including Yu Dianhu shook at the same time. The white light on their bodies wavered and became slightly weaker. The black Buddha light that was invading from all directions crushed thousands of layers of white light and moved a little closer to their bodies.
"I would like to ask all Taoist friends to lend me a helping hand." Yu Dianhu said hurriedly: "This beast is extremely ferocious. It is not so easy to hunt it down!"
The faceless woman holding the pipa laughed softly, then she stood up and spun around, instantly transforming into three thousand graceful afterimages that flew through the air. The graceful afterimages lightly pressed the pipa, and the crisp sound of "ding ding" tore through the void.
Large patches of black Buddha light were constantly disappearing amid the faint sound of the pipa.
There was no loud noise of collision, no fluctuation of light or shadow... It was as if an invisible giant beast had appeared in the void, biting off the black Buddha light in the sky bit by bit, and continuously swallowing it completely.
The woman was playing the pipa and singing a little tune with "hmm ah ah".
The lyrics are strange and the melody is erratic, like a naughty boy pulling a rusty saw, extremely obscure and unpleasant to the ear.
However, this seemingly insignificant tune caused the Buddha's light on the monks floating in the sky to shake violently. Wisps of black Buddha's light continued to dissipate out of thin air, and from time to time, a piece of flesh would be missing from the monks' bodies, or the flesh on the surface would be intact, but a small piece of the bones and internal organs would be missing out of thin air.
Yu Dianhu muttered in a low voice: "Madam Qin has taken action, fellow Taoists, please act quickly."
A low "cooing" sound was heard from the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat.
The next moment, a gigantic owl, about three feet tall, with blood-red feathers all over its body and only a pair of eyes as black as ink, as dark as hell, quietly appeared at the bow of the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat.
The huge owl's neck spun extremely flexibly, without making a sound, and suddenly spread its wings.
Countless streaks of blood shot up into the sky, accompanied by slight tearing sounds. The streaks of blood turned into light silk ribbons embroidered with countless feather patterns, gracefully wrapping around the countless monks.
These blood-colored ribbons swayed gracefully, carrying a faint smell of blood. Once they touched the bodies of the monks, they would be transformed into a pool of sticky blood plasma and swallowed up in one gulp.
One monk after another disappeared in the blood. The owl on the bow of the ship was shaking slightly. Every time a monk's body disappeared in the air, a blood-colored feather fell off his body quietly, ignited without fire, and turned into a green bean-sized flame that floated beside him.
Soon, all the hair on the owl fell off, and a little bit of blood-red flame almost covered his entire body.
The owl looked down at his naked body covered with goose skin, cursed angrily, and then stomped his feet hard.
Countless tiny blood-red sparks gathered inwards, and with a bang, they transformed into a huge ball of blood-red flame.
Blood flames rose, and the owl chanted a spell "coo coo coo" while walking with its two long legs. It stomped its feet on the bow of the ship in a very strange way, and danced like a shaman.
As the owl chanted and danced, the huge blood-red flame gradually condensed into a small bow and arrow. When the bow and arrow took shape, the owl roared and sprayed a thin stream of blood from its mouth onto the bow and arrow condensed from the blood flame. Then the bow and arrow automatically opened and locked onto one of the three old monks wrapped in black Buddha flames in the void.
Yu Dianhu clasped his hands together and bowed to the three old monks: "Master, please return to your seat!"
'laugh'!
The arrows formed by the blood flames were released suddenly, and a flash of blood light flashed. A transparent hole appeared between the eyebrows of the three old monks at the same time. Countless extremely fine blood lights spread rapidly from the transparent wound to the surroundings. The bodies of the three monks were like tender tofu cut by a sharp knife, and were cut into countless tiny pieces in a very short time.
With a "pop" sound, the bodies of the three old monks shattered and turned into blood-red light spots that slowly dissipated in the sky.
Then, the bodies of the monks, which were emitting infinite black Buddha light, also exploded one after another. For a moment, all the sight was blood-red spots, and the sky seemed to be set off by a grand fireworks display, beautiful and yet extremely weird.
"My hair!" Owl panted and sat down on the bow. He shouted, "I have used all my strength. This old hair of mine will not grow back in three to five thousand years... Don't even think about me taking action again this time!"
As the owl complained, ninety-nine beautiful women dressed in silver gauze and emitting a biting cold air slowly emerged from the countless blood lights.
Yu Dianhu's voice became extremely strange: "Pushan, where is this unlucky guy who was harmed by you?"
The voice of the Thirty-Three Years Cicada was still as sharp as ever: "Who they are has nothing to do with you... Anyway, you just need to be careful... I still say the same thing, if you want to hunt me, let's see if you have the qualifications!"
“Haha, be careful! You may be annihilated by the consumables I used before before you even see my true self!”
