Chapter 859: Careful Budgeting (6)
"You are qualified to be a general of a thousand men." Linghu Wuyou looked at Lu Yi with a happy smile.
His cultivation and his background determined that his vision was incomparable to that of ordinary people. Behind Lu Yi, the Red Dust Heaven turned into layers of bright light that slowly rotated. Although Linghu Wuyou could not completely see through the Red Dust Heaven, he could sense that in the outermost Buddhist kingdom of the Red Dust Heaven, there were thousands of vast auras rising into the sky like wolf smoke.
This kind of strength... is insignificant to him.
But in this lower world, the combat power of the Buddha Lord level is already considerable... and even in the upper world, in the Supreme Taichu Heaven, the combat power of the Buddha Lord level, placed in an important frontier town like Loulan Pass, with a few discounts and a few slightly exaggerated entries in the military resume, is enough to serve as a grassroots officer like a decurion or centurion.
Thousands of Buddha-level combat power?
Aren't these thousands of centurions... Aren't these the framework that supports hundreds of thousands of elite troops? Moreover, these gods and demons in the Red Dust Heaven obviously have a coherent aura, they are born from the same source, and are more proficient in military formations. This is the prototype of a "strong army".
It's amazing.
It is truly breathtakingly beautiful.
Linghu Wuyou was so happy that he laughed so hard that his big teeth were shaking.
Lu Yi looked at Linghu Wuyou solemnly. He did not think Linghu Wuyou's praise was a good thing. Worthy of being a general of a thousand men? Haha, just a general of a thousand men... Lu Yi did not think that this was such a high honor.
Linghu Wuyou's origins were strange, and he was obviously not a good person. In particular, the skeleton beside him had begun to shake all over. It was unknown whether he was excited, nervous, or afraid, but he kept shaking all over... He was still muttering words like "eternal white bone marrow"... He had not forgotten to "give Lu Yi a piece of good fortune and a chance".
The four mistresses also looked at Linghu Wuyou solemnly.
Especially Lady Scorpion, looking at the descendants lying limply on the ground, she said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do, Your Excellency?"
Although they have evolved to such a level, possessing such powerful strength and incredible skills, the instincts and nature of insects are still strong. Scorpion Lady and the other three mistresses felt the great terror from Linghu Wuyou, as if he were their natural enemy.
Therefore, with the arrogance and arrogance they had developed over the years, they were extremely cautious and did not attack Linghu Wuyou immediately. Instead, they were careful to find out his origins and his strength, and then consider how to cut him into pieces more safely, chewing him up and eating him up bit by bit.
Linghu Wuyou looked at the four mistresses with a smile.
He shook his head slightly and said softly, "Four lucky little bugs, you are qualified to be the deputy garrison commanders of Loulan Pass... We don't need you to lead troops to fight. Obviously, you are not cut out for it. You just need to focus on having children."
Linghu Wuyou's smile was very 'evil', very 'cruel', and very 'wicked'. His smile made the four mistresses feel inexplicably cold all over, and countless goose bumps appeared all over their bodies unconsciously.
"I happen to have a 'Life-giving Pill' in my hand, which is most effective for people like you who are poisoned by insects... As long as you take the Life-giving Pill, your reproductive vitality will be enhanced by a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times. Moreover, as long as you pay attention to supplementing your nutrition, the blood of your offspring will continue to be purified and improved."
"My descendants, endless...my descendants, each generation is stronger than the previous one."
"You will be a constant source of troops for Loulan Pass." Linghu Wuyou laughed so hard that his whole body was shaking. "Hee, four little insects that have been recognized by the true spirit of Loulan Pass, this is your luck, and this young master's luck as well. Hey, you will all be blessed in the future, you only need to sit here and give birth to your children every day, and there will be someone to take care of your eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, how happy is that?"
The four mistresses' faces turned red and their eyes turned green with anger.
How insulting is Linghu Wuyou's words?
They are the most supreme matriarchs of the four holy clans. What does Linghu Wuyou think of them as? Lowly, reproduction tools?
Before they could attack, countless elites from the four holy clans in all directions were already roaring in anger. The mighty army formation turned into an overwhelming dark cloud and rushed straight towards Linghu Wuyou.
Linghu Wuyou chuckled and shook his head: "No, no, you insects are too weak to enjoy the blessings that this young master will give you. So, Loulan Pass, listen to my orders!"
Linghu Wuyou took out a translucent, blood-blue seal with countless stars swirling around it. The seal, which was as big as a baby's head, had a white tiger as its button and cloud patterns swirling around it. Looking closely, countless images of wars and bloodshed on the battlefield kept appearing in the cloud patterns.
Following Linghu Wuyou's order, countless strands of extremely fine starlight on the seal surged and spurted out. The starlight rushed straight into the sky, shattering the turbid and chaotic air that enveloped the ancient city of Loulan. The clouds surged, and suddenly a bright blue sky and moist white clouds appeared.
The chaotic energy directly condensed into a huge sun hanging high in the sky. The red sunlight shone down, and everyone felt warm all over. The heat went straight into the bone marrow through the skin and flesh. No matter what race they were, no matter how high or low their cultivation level was, including Lu Yi, whose physical strength had been improved to an incredible level, everyone felt the heat rising in their bone marrow, and a powerful new force continued to grow.
Just by basking in the sunlight, physical strength is constantly increasing.
The great Dao laws contained in this round of sun are infinitely higher than the great Dao laws contained in the sun that countless creatures in the countless heavens in this spatial dimension are accustomed to.
It is still the 'sun', it is still the 'great law of the sun', it also contains the mysteries of 'warmth, light, life, creation' and so on. However, the mysteries contained in this sun temporarily condensed from the chaotic energy are a hundred times more brilliant, a hundred times more powerful, and a hundred times more intense.
Such clear laws of the sun roared down, like burning steel nails, directly hitting everyone's body and branding everyone's soul. Even those creatures who naturally liked negative forces such as darkness, coldness, evil, and darkness were forced to begin to comprehend the mysteries of the sun, and they gained a lot.
Including Baoguang Gongde Buddha and Baiyang Shangren exclaimed in surprise. They staggered out of the hall and stared blankly at the red sun hanging high in the sky.
The blue sky and white clouds spread rapidly in all directions, and the entire ancient city of Loulan was like a zombie that had been sleeping for billions of years. At this moment, it suddenly started to wake up, and the deathly aura that filled its body quickly dissipated, and its life force and youthful vitality were rapidly recovering.
Deep in the foundation of the ancient city of Loulan, the broken formations began to frantically devour the chaotic energy from all directions.
The orbs of good fortune that had been covered in dust for many years began to flicker. The boundless chaotic energy was swallowed by these orbs of good fortune. Wisps of spiritual light gushed out and condensed into pieces of divine crystals and pieces of divine gold out of thin air. These crystals and gold stones melted quickly, outlining a series of avenue runes and array bases and array plates, repairing the broken array bases with a "clang" sound.
This is the extraordinary formation of the Supreme Taichu Heaven.
The great formations of the Supreme Taichu Heaven all have the attributes of 'eternity' and 'immortality'. As long as they are not completely wiped out or annihilated by the supreme power, these great formations can infinitely self-repair and self-reorganize as long as they receive instructions and have enough resources.
In a sense, the ancient city of Loulan is an "eternal" and "immortal" city.
Linghu Wuyou felt the great changes that took place deep inside the ancient city of Loulan, rubbed the seal in his hand, and cursed in a low voice: "Uncle, uncle, what can I say? As the chief officer of Loulan Pass, you can even lose the seal of defense... This is a fatal crime, let's see if the emperor will pursue it..."
The warm sunshine shines on the ancient city of Loulan.
Wherever the sunlight reached, sharp roars rang out from the countless pavilions, towers, gardens and palaces in the city. Countless strange and bizarre creatures that had been nurtured over the years were all fatally damaged by the sunlight.
The evil creatures like the old lady selling apricot blossoms that Lu Yi had seen before were immediately turned into smoke and disappeared when illuminated by this bright sun.
The dust and garbage accumulated in Loulan City disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye; countless weeds, fallen leaves and wildly growing shrubs also ignited golden flames and turned into ashes in an instant; the collapsed pavilions and halls were propped up by invisible forces, and the broken bricks and tiles were pieced together and returned to their rightful places; some bricks and tiles that had been completely destroyed in the past years were born out of thin air into new bricks, new tiles, new beams and columns, etc., which formed a brand new building according to the most original design.
The broken city gates and walls were completely restored by the incredible power.
Amidst the shimmering light, on the walls of the ancient city of Loulan, towers with bases about ten feet long and wide, and a height of a thousand feet, shaped like four-sided golden maces, stood up again. On top of the towers, complex formations quickly spread and grew, with purple-gold Taoist patterns outlining complex formation patterns. The majestic chaotic energy was refined by the formations, turning into strands of extremely bright golden light that quickly gathered into a ball.
Along with the dull hissing sound of thunder and lightning, huge purple-gold lightning eyes slowly appeared on these tall towers.
The shape of these electric eyes is exactly the same as the vertical eyes between the eyebrows of Linghu Wuyou and other "celestial beings". The huge eyeballs condensed from lightning are about ten feet long. Occasionally, they open and close, and thin electric lights shoot out from the pupils for several miles.
As these high towers were repaired and as these electric eyes hung high in the sky, overlooking the entire city, a mighty and majestic aura enveloped the entire city. The insects that were rushing towards Linghu Wuyou felt their bodies go limp, and all their murderous intent and evil spirits disappeared. It was as if they had lost all their strength and turned into ordinary insects. Facing the hunting of their natural enemies, they lost even the strength to escape.
Amidst loud 'booms', dozens of palace buildings appeared out of thin air in the core of the ancient city of Loulan, spewing colorful smoke. The halls that had been beaten to pieces were constantly being reorganized and healed, and the forbidden formations were constantly being repaired and then quickly restarted.
The terrifying power of the restriction swept in all directions. Outside the door of the core hall, Morenli Tianfo, who was thinking about how to enter the hall and take away the benefits inside, screamed strangely, grabbed his beloved little disciple, the monk Jiese, and turned into a beam of light and fled into the sky.
Even though he ran fast, a newly repaired forbidden formation reacted with a bang, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, striking the Buddha of Morenli exactly. As expected of being the number one Buddha of Liangyi Tianduobao, a large piece of golden light exploded from the Buddha of Morenli, and the twelve Buddha treasures simultaneously faced the thunderbolt, shattering one after another, but it also bought him a chance to escape.
With a muffled groan, the fatal lightning strike only caused a few minor burns to Morenli Tianfo. He cursed in a low voice and dragged the monk Jiese away in a panic. But just after escaping a short distance, he felt the pressure and threat exerted on him by the giant eyes of thunder on the towers on the city walls in all directions.
"Buddha, have mercy on me!" The Buddha Morenli stopped running immediately. He put his hands together, looked around solemnly, and suddenly smiled and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, which Taoist friend from the ancient city of Loulan is here? Such a holy city has escaped disaster and returned to its original state. It is really a great joy!"
The Buddha Molinari smiled brightly, gently, and joyfully, looking like an enthusiastic elder and a compassionate person who was sincerely excited about the happy event of his neighbor.
Linghu Wuyou glanced at the Morenli Tianfo. His originally indifferent look, as if he was looking down on a small insect, suddenly became more fierce. "What a blessed person! He is a blessed person... Haha, this kind of good fortune is rare. It is worth cultivating one or two."
Linghu Wuyou waved his hand, and a huge force came. Morenli Tianfo and Jiesexing Monk flew to Linghu Wuyou's side. Linghu Wuyou looked up and down at Morenli Tianfo, who was smiling very brightly, and said slowly: "I am still short of a servant to serve tea and water. You seem to be just the right height, shortness, fatness and thinness."
Morenli Tianfo took a deep breath and looked at Linghu Wuyou carefully, especially the seal in his hand. His smile became brighter. He clasped his hands together and bowed to Linghu Wuyou, saying respectfully, "As you said, I will obey your orders."
Linghu Wuyou laughed with great satisfaction.
Loud rumbling sounds continued to be heard in the ancient city of Loulan. The city's self-repair work had been mostly completed. The terrifying power of restriction permeated the void, suppressing the four holy clans and countless alien races so that they dared not move.
Linghu Wuyou held the seal, glanced around, and said calmly: "You... that's all. What's the point of explaining to you? Now, I will announce the rules."
"All those who are not 'celestial beings', fight to your heart's content."
"All the enemies you kill, everything they have, will be completely taken away by you and become yours. In other words, the more you kill, the stronger you will become."
"If you become a 'celestial being', you will be able to escape from the slaughter and live on."
"Become a 'celestial being', or become the source of other insects' advancement to 'celestial beings'... live or die, it's your choice!"
Linghu Wuyou laughed loudly, and gently swung the seal in his hand. The area where Yuchan Lake was originally located had turned into a circular arena with a white jade base and high platforms on all four sides. The void expanded in all directions, and the arena that was originally tens of thousands of miles in radius became tens of billions of miles in a short breath.
Vast mist rippled out from the huge Dao patterns under the arena, and the mist exuded a faint fragrance with a strong sense of warmth. Lu Yi took a wisp of the mist and sniffed it gently, and he felt his body slightly warmed, and his physical strength was replenished a little bit.
With Lu Yi's physical strength, he could feel every bit of replenishment. For those creatures whose physical strength was far inferior to his, it was like a tonic pill, enough to replenish their consumed physical strength in the blink of an eye.
On the seal, stars are twinkling.
The four holy clans, countless alien races, and those alien races in the ancient city of Loulan who occupied a small area and called themselves kings and dominated the world, and who did not submit to the four holy clans, were all absorbed by that little bit of starlight and thrown into the arena.
However, all those who entered the arena were creatures with cultivation below the level of Buddha Lord.
All the creatures with the cultivation level of Buddha Lord stayed where they were without moving at all.
Lu Yu suddenly realized that the so-called 'heavenly being' was actually the 'Buddha Lord'... because a Buddha Lord at least had the cultivation base of 'one day'... was this the so-called 'heavenly being'?
However, feeling the boundless divine power of the sun in the sky, Lu Yi couldn't help but wonder - Linghu Wuyou was definitely not a creature from this dimension, he was from the upper realm. What was the basis for the upper realm's "celestial being" to identify him?
You know, even if one has completely mastered one of the Heavenly Daos of Liang Yi Heaven, based on the aura emitted by the condensed sun above one's head, one can judge that the great Dao of the Supreme Taichu Heaven is thousands of times more mysterious and powerful than that of the lower realms... Can a creature who has mastered one of the Heavenly Daos in the lower realms be qualified to be called a 'celestial being' in the Supreme Taichu Heaven?
Or is there a 'ratio'?
Perfectly mastering a great way in the lower realm is equivalent to mastering a fraction of a great way in the Supreme Primordial Heaven? With such a level of cultivation, can one be called a "celestial being"?
Lu Yi shook his head.
Perhaps, "celestial being" is just the most common name in the upper realm.
'Heavenly man', 'heavenly man', is just the most ordinary 'man', which means 'common people'!
Without the cultivation of the Buddha Lord Realm, in the upper realm, you are not even considered a "human"? You are not qualified to be a "commoner"?
Everything is unknown, Lu Yi remained silent.
However, a little bit of starlight sprinkled down and penetrated the great formation set up by Lu Yi, and sucked in a large number of mortal gods and demons arranged by Lu Yi, as well as those insects that were forcibly converted and accepted as his disciples, all of whom did not have the cultivation of a Buddha, into the arena.
That would have been fine, but the Red Dust Buddhist Kingdom behind Lu Yi also shook violently, and bits of starlight actually penetrated the barrier of his Buddhist kingdom and forcibly invaded his Buddhist kingdom. Countless Red Dust gods and demons who did not have the cultivation of a Buddha also shouted in fear, turned into countless points of light and flew into the sky, and were forcibly brought into the arena.
At the core of Hongchentian, the formation set up by the old monk Hongchen suddenly lit up.
A vast and terrifying aura was about to rise into the sky and hit Linghu Wuyou head-on... After all, the old monk Hongchen also came from the upper realm, and this Hongchen Heaven was his natal Buddhist kingdom. Even in the upper realm, it was an extremely extraordinary existence.
But Lu Yu's heart moved slightly, and as soon as he thought of it, the counterattack force that was ready to be launched in the Red Dust Heaven suddenly subsided. He let the starlight penetrate the layers of Buddhist barriers, sweeping away the astonishing number of gods and demons and sending them into the arena.
There are more than ten thousand levels of Buddhist kingdoms in the mortal world, and there are trillions of gods and demons in each level of Buddhist kingdoms.
This is the wealth that the old monk has accumulated over countless years of wandering in the world.
When the four mistresses and a group of alien leaders saw large groups of mortal gods and demons constantly emerging, and gradually the number of these gods and demons even exceeded the total of the four holy clans and countless alien coalition forces, and the number was still increasing, their faces all became extremely wonderful!
Three times ... five times... ten times...
When the number of gods and demons that were swept out from the mortal world by starlight had exceeded three hundred times the number of the four holy clans and the coalition forces of countless alien races, the faces of the four mistresses looked as if they had been forced to eat a hundred kilograms of cow dung. It was truly beyond words.
Such a large number of subordinates are actually hidden in Lu Yifo Kingdom!
Moreover, each of these gods and demons in the Red Dust World looked like they were shining with precious light, and it was obvious that they had extraordinary talents. After all, how could the creatures that could be favored by the old monster, the Old Monk Red Dust, and accepted into the Red Dust World be ordinary beings?
Such a race with extraordinary qualifications, and such a huge number of people… According to the average proportion of the four major holy clans, the number of Buddha-level powers emerging from these mortal gods and demons should be at least a hundred times the total number of the four major holy clans!
Damn baldy thief!
Damn bald ass!
With so much wealth and background, he actually set up two shabby formations and engaged in a tug-of-war with me?
Not a good son!
This is not a human being!
If you had shown this property to me earlier, the four mistresses would have sent you off from the ancient city of Loulan with gongs, drums and suonas...would they really have to fight with you here?
The number of gods and demons emerging from the mortal world is increasing and becoming larger and larger.
Gradually, the number of gods and demons has exceeded that of the four holy clans and the coalition forces of various alien races by a thousand times!
Even Linghu Wuyou looked at Lu Yi in surprise: "Little monk, you are really lucky. This Buddhist treasure should not be made by you yourself, right? Well, my comment just now was wrong... You are also qualified to serve as the deputy guard at Loulan Pass. Unlike the four deputy guards who are responsible for giving birth, you are qualified to take on the duties of conquering and fighting."
Lu Yi remained silent and saluted Linghu Wuyou with his hands clasped together.
The starlight was falling, and the three girls Qingyou, who were in seclusion in the main hall to refine the many swords left by the ancestors of the Qinglin Sword Palace, as well as many female disciples of the Qinglin Sword Palace, were also drawn into the arena by the starlight.
Lu Yi's expression finally changed slightly.
He looked at Linghu Wuyou: "What you mean by killing, sir, is that if we kill enough people, their cultivation and everything can be transferred to someone else?"
In the Little Vajra Sumeru Mountain, Ah Hu and a group of tiger masters, as well as the Taoist monks who had followed Lu Yi when he was in the Jishengtian and Yuanlingtian periods, were all swept out.
Lu Yu's expression became even uglier.
Behind Linghu Wuyou, more than a hundred men and women from the Linghu family appeared quietly.
The aura of each of them was like the might of heaven, so vast and powerful that it filled the entire ancient city of Loulan, making people feel suffocated for no reason and unable to resist at all.
Linghu Wuyou smiled brightly: "Yes, that's exactly the truth."
"That's exactly the rule!"
"Now, you can start killing. I only want the last batch of elite celestial beings. All the other insects must die!"
