Volume 2: The Great Tribulation of the Lich Chapter 354: Mingyu's Strategy to Attack the Demon World
Mingyu recited the sutra very slowly. He only recited the entire "Huangting Sutra" three times and then stopped.
Because it's getting light.
"Xiaowu, it's your turn on duty!" The Big Golden Crow pushed Xiaowu, who was listening to the sutras with great concentration. Xiaowu suddenly woke up and, without caring about anything else, quickly flapped his wings and flew away.
boom--
The golden liquid boiled, and the Fusang tree grew larger. In an instant, it became billions of feet high, towering into the clouds and piercing the sky. The bright sun rose out of the golden pool and was held up by the Fusang tree. Xiao Wu carried the sun out and gradually traveled around the sky.
A sound fell from the sky.
"Uncle, I'll tell you when I get back!"
"good!"
Mingyu smiled and nodded.
He kept his word and did not continue preaching.
With a flick of his sleeves, the phantom golden sword box floated into the air.
Today, shoot the golden crow with sword!
The remaining nine golden crows were stunned when they saw this.
"Come again?!"
Thinking back to the pain of the sword piercing their feathers and touching their skin last night, the little golden crows trembled in fear.
Looking at the dumbfounded Jinwu, Mingyu smiled and said , "Why don't you run away now?"
The sword's power is immeasurable, condensed into ten, and the murderous intent is overwhelming!
"run!"
The nine golden crows' fur stood on end and turned into rainbow light. They tried their best to avoid the sword that existed in yin and yang, came from the void, and pierced through time.
Mingyu's sword was too fast and too sharp, and soon the Golden Crow was caught up and stabbed.
"ah!"
Emperor Twelve Yue exclaimed, she saw blood, the blood of the Golden Crow.
Last time it was a sword, and I controlled it very well, chasing the little guys without hurting them; now whenever I catch up with them, there will be blood, and even if it only pierces the flesh, the pain is real.
The nine golden crows were stimulated by this and their speed increased a bit, and their dodging ability also improved.
Even Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, who were stabbed, unconsciously used the Huangting Sutra they had just learned to heal their wounds. The rest of the brothers followed suit and circulated the small circulation of the body using the contents of the Huangting Sutra.
The sword intent of life and death pursued relentlessly, and the Golden Crows learned and applied it flexibly, and the Feihong technique was used more smoothly.
"good!"
Mingyu praised generously.
The little white rabbit finally let go of the worry in her heart, her brows relaxed, a smile returned to her face, and she continued to cheer for her brothers.
Xiye, who was standing by, supported his chin with his hand, looking thoughtful.
He stared at the Yin-Yang Sword that was constantly changing and getting faster and faster, and asked sideways, "Are you teaching them how to escape faster and dodge attacks?"
"right!"
Although this sword and that arrow are different, Mingyu has seen Houyi's arrow and was personally taught by the moon goddess Chang'e, so his understanding of time is exactly the same. Therefore, the Yin-Yang Sword is fast, accurate, and ruthless enough!
He had never learned archery, so imitating the arrow with a sword was bound to be a bit of a copycat. However, all paths lead to the same destination and one can learn by analogy. The ultimate pursuit of an archery is nothing more than these three words.
Practice slowly and there will be some effect.
As the sun sets in the sky, it is noon, and Xiaowu is still silently reciting the Huangting Sutra. Revisiting the past can help you learn new things. If you read a book a hundred times, its meaning will become clear. The principles it conveys are the same.
Carrying the Great Sun to practice the Big Circulation, reciting the Huangting to practice the Small Circulation, the Big and Small Circulations are both cultivation, which is good!
I don’t know if it’s because the Golden Crow with the Sun on its Back is reciting the Huangting Sutra, but there’s a hint of Taoism in the sunlight.
In the ancient land, the creatures who were breathing in the sun's essence to practice Qi cultivation suddenly discovered that today's sunlight was exceptionally warm. They felt inexplicably much smoother when practicing Qi cultivation. The secretive and evil spirits in their hearts were all reduced after being exposed to the sun.
They didn't understand why and just thought it was the result of their own improvement in practice.
…
At the same time, Emperor Fengdu's journey to the demon world went very smoothly.
His mission is to break up the situation in the demon world, take the opportunity to correct the chaotic order here, and try to replace the previous "old" test of magic with the "new" test of magic.
The "old" test of the devil's calamity originated from the oath of the Demon Ancestor Luohou that the Tao and the devil would rise and fall. It is a calamity that the demon world targeted at all the cultivators in the prehistoric world. All cultivators will encounter the disturbance of the demon in their hearts and give birth to demonic obstacles. If they cannot overcome it, falling into the devil's trap is the least, but losing their body and destroying their Tao is the biggest!
Affected by the catastrophe, the frequency of demons causing trouble in the center of the prehistoric world increased more and more, and more and more people were possessed by demons and died, causing many chaos in the already chaotic prehistoric world.
The "new" test of the Dao, modified by the great demon king Mingyu, is generally a re-test instead of a re-tribulation, using the power of chiseling and carving to test the cultivators, and generally it is for the cultivators to achieve great things. And this test is not only aimed at the prehistoric creatures, but also the demons in the demon world.
He used the ten demons in the heavens, "Heaven, Earth, Man, God, Ghost, Yin and Yang, Sickness, and Demon Realm", to test the creatures of the two worlds. No matter whether they were cultivating Taoism or practicing magic, they had to go through various tests of the Demon King. He always had one thing in mind: make the demonic calamity more disciplined, treat everyone equally, and don't do it recklessly.
The fact that this matter was able to move forward quickly was due, firstly, to the "Supreme Demon Book" created by Mingyu, and secondly, to the clever operation of Emperor Fengdu.
Relying on the cover of the Great Demon's Black Law and the Supreme Charter, he dispatched the Ten Demons from the Heavens to preach among the low-level demon cultivators.
The "Supreme True Demon Book" records in detail the "orthodox" methods of practicing demons, including what a demon is, how to practice demons, and how to become a demon, from low-level demons to demon generals, demon lords, demon kings, and so on.
This book was created by Mingyu as the general outline, edited by Nuwa several times, read by Fuxi a hundred times, perfected by Minghe, verified by Fengdu, and Lei Ze reluctantly helped to revise it...
It took everyone’s joint efforts and a hundred years to make it worthy of the four words “Supreme True Devil”.
How could one not be moved by such a vast and complete "orthodox" scripture of magic? !
Moreover, when Fengdu Emperor preached, he shouted the slogan: "In the sky, the devil's song sounds like a cave chapter. Recite it a hundred times, and your name will be known in the south palace; recite it a thousand times, and the devil will come to welcome you; recite it ten thousand times, and you will be ready to fly into the sky!"
In a word: recite my true magic book, you will not be afraid of the devil's test, you will not be afraid of the heaven's calamity, and the great road will be in your sight. Please recite it quickly, and there will be no more waiting after the time comes!
As a result, "The Supreme Demon Book" spread like wildfire among low-level demon practitioners, and the Emperor of Fengdu gained a large number of believers and followers.
"Orthodox" magic practitioners flourished in the demon world, and soon their sparks grew into a raging fire.
As the True Demon Book spread, the concepts in the general outline, such as "Great Demon King", "Taishi Blue Sky", "Boundless Land", etc., were constantly rooted in the minds of the cultivators.
They really believed that there was an almighty demon king in this world, who sat high in the azure sky, preaching the great principles to the demon kings in the boundless land...
And this is exactly the effect that Fengdu Emperor and others want!
Only when the True Demonic Scripture is deeply rooted in people's hearts can the Demonic Trial be imprinted between heaven and earth, replacing the original chaotic demonic calamity step by step!
…
That night, Mingyu was perfecting the formation of the five Yujing towers, and Xiye was responsible for explaining the Huangting Sutra to the little ones.
Boom!
There was a fluctuation in the void, and Mingyu looked up, only to see the high-spirited King of Fengdu appear. He did not come in his real body, but used the Three Lives Stone to open up three worlds of time and space and have a cross-border communication with Mingyu.
"It's going well?"
"That's natural. You should be able to see the clues from the changes in the ancient times." Emperor Fengdu deliberately glanced at Xiye who was busy giving a lecture, with a hint of meaning.
Mingyu smiled and said, "The Great Blue Sky and the Infinite Vast Earth, have they really come out?"
Speaking of this, a strange look appeared on the face of Fengdu Emperor. He looked at Mingyu and said in an inexplicable tone: "It is really as you expected. Whatever sentient beings think, the heaven and earth will have an echo. I originally planned to open up a world as my base camp, but as the True Demon Book spread, the Taishi Blue Sky and the Infinite Vast Land were naturally conceived and came into being.
The Demon Realm has also had a corresponding Heaven and Earth Seal for the position of Great Demon King. I used to be afraid of being exposed and targeted by the Demon Realm's high-ranking officials, but now that I have the Heaven and Earth Seal, I feel more secure. "
Mingyu stopped and inquired carefully about what happened. When he heard that the high-level officials of the demon world had not taken any major actions yet, he frowned.
“This shouldn’t be the case…”
Whether it is the three great demon lords of the new generation or those old guys, they are not so easy to deal with.
"But I feel it's almost there..." Fengdu Emperor said, "Before that, the Great Demon Black Law and the Supreme Charter blocked the secrets, and the Great God Lei Ze helped to cover up a little, so we were able to seize the initiative.
Now, if we want to get the Demon Realm back on track and avoid internal friction with the Primordial World, we must face those old guys who control the Demon Realm, otherwise we will always just be fighting small battles."
"Is it almost time?" Mingyu said to herself, lowering her head in thought.
Then he looked up suddenly, as if he had thought of something.
"Do you have a solution?" asked the King of Fengdu.
Mingyu nodded: "Well, we need to change our strategy."
"How do I change it?"
"On the basis of integrating the devil into the Tao, add one more thing: Heaven and earth advance together!"
Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Fengdu's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently, "How do I get in?"
Mingyu looked up at the sky, the corners of his mouth curled up, "The Heavenly Dao wants to take in the Demon Realm, and the Dao Ancestor wants to eliminate the demonic calamity, but we can't just do it without any help, at least lend some strength!
Listen to me, let’s do this first… and then this…”
The King of Fengdu listened attentively, with the light in his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.
“There’s something going on!”
"Then go ahead and do it."
Mingyu waved his hand and issued an order.
The Emperor of Fengdu said: "I will go back to the underworld. If it is inconvenient for you to leave, let them go to the outer chaos."
"good!"
The two of them did what they said. The King of Fengdu immediately stopped his preaching in the demon world and returned to the underworld. He planned with Houtu for a long time, then went to the dream world to find Youmeng, and finally stopped by Cuiwei Palace to fool Dizang.
Dizang immediately said, "Brother, don't worry. If I don't enter the demon world, who will? Even if the demons are rampant, my Western religion has its own great Dharma to suppress them!"
“Hahahaha, I have a junior brother who can defeat a hundred thousand ghost immortals!” The Emperor of Fengdu exclaimed in praise.
On the other side, Mingyu sent a sword talisman into Longhu Mountain. The three Taoists Taishi, Taisu and Taiji ascended to the sky together, heading towards the chaos outside the sky, looking for the Zixiao Palace!
"What are you doing here?"
Haotian and Yao Ji who stayed here were very confused.
"The master said he doesn't want to see guests, please go back!"
Tai Su and the other two looked at each other, then bowed deeply towards the palace and turned to leave.
Finally, Tai Su stopped and looked at Hao Tian: "Daoyou, can we talk?"
Haotian didn't understand, but nodded anyway.
When Haotian approached, Tai Su suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist Yuhuang, I have an important matter that needs your help. Are you willing to do it?"
Haotian's pupils shrank slightly, and he stared at Taoist Taisu.
"Are you here to see me?"
"right!"
The three Taoists did not hide anything.
"Tell me more about it!"
Haotian did not agree or reject it immediately, but chose to listen.
He wanted to see what Mingyu was going to do.
So Tai Su and the other two told the truth.
The devil world, the devil king, the devil test, the devil book...
The more he listened, the more surprised Haotian was. Was his friend too troublesome?
Finally, Taisu said, "Bring the teapot!"
"Bring a teapot?"
Haotian narrowed his eyes, looked back at Zixiao Palace, and nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, but I can't go. The master still needs to watch the door."
"Brother, do you have something to do? Then go ahead, I will watch over you." Yao Ji was very considerate.
Haotian's mouth twitched, and he silently glanced at his silly sister, and then told Taisu and the other two: "I can't go, but Yuhuang can go!"
“As it should be!”
Tai Su and the other two bowed to him with smiles on their faces.
Upon seeing this, Haotian no longer hid himself and pushed away his Taoist crown. The Jade Emperor walked down the Qingyun holding the jade seal and jade pot.
"Please come in, fellow Taoist!"
"please!"
…
After arranging the affairs of the demon world, Mingyu no longer cared about it.
Whether it is bringing the demon world under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao, or the rise and fall of the demon world, it cannot be accomplished overnight.
The situation is very good now, but it is just the beginning.
Tanggu’s daily life continues.
At night, Mingyu and Xiye take turns explaining scriptures to the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit. This is a quiet moment; during the day, it is a battle royale, each time more dangerous and severe than the last. This is a noisy moment.
Under the pressure of death again and again, the ten Golden Crows' reaction speed, intuition about danger, anticipation of murderous intent, skills in avoiding attacks, proficiency in their own magical powers, ability to adapt to changing circumstances, speed of healing, and all kinds of potential were tapped.
Of course, even though Mingyu's teaching was a combination of relaxation and intensity, the little golden crows still couldn't help but have some thoughts of escaping.
On weekdays, I look forward to my turn on duty so that I can take the opportunity to work under the sun and go out of the valley to be lazy.
And from time to time they would act like brothers, competing to take on the duty.
In response to this, Mingyu slightly changed her teaching methods and added a reward and punishment system.
If you are stabbed by the sword, your duty will be handed over to someone else; if you are not stabbed, you can have priority on duty next time!
It has been proven that with a reasonable reward mechanism, people's initiative can be improved.
The same goes for the Jinwu brothers . Whether they were practicing Taoism at night or fighting during the day, they became more active.
"very nice!"
When they achieved obvious results, Mingyu decided to give them a holiday!
"Uncle is leaving?"
Instead of being happy, the Ten Golden Crows were extremely reluctant to leave.
Mingyu smiled and replied, "I need to go listen to a senior's sermon and ask him to help me solve my doubts."
"Will you come back then?"
"certainly!"
Mingyu pointed at Xiye, "If you don't believe me, I can pin him down here with you and let Xiye teach you!"
Xiye: “???”
Seeing that Little Golden Crow was quite interested, Xiye's eyelids jumped, and he quickly said: "I also have some confusions on my path that I need to find a saint to answer, so I can't accompany you for the time being!"
"Okay! Then uncle, remember to go and come back quickly!" Although the ten brothers were reluctant to leave, they also knew the importance of the matter and did not force him to stay.
"Don't be sad, brother. Little Twelve is here to accompany you!"
"Sister is still the best!"
