Chapter 126: I heard your plan from the other side of Xianyin
Li Xiuchang finally knew where those blood monks came from, and why they could not be killed.
It turned out that the eighteen bald donkeys were all thugs condensed by the blood jade tree.
So it seems that this strange tree has always existed, but he did not find it because it was mixed in a large area of similar trees before.
Li Xiuchang took a deep breath and took out the eighth-level protective talisman.
It seems that he still needs to use the eighth-level talisman brick.
The eighteen bald donkeys are immortal, and there is really nothing he can do.
At this moment, suddenly a ray of light broke through the sky, fell from the sky, and landed in front of Li Xiuchang.
Finally, it turned into an old illusory figure.
"Brother Gui?"
Li Xiuchang was surprised. How could Brother Gui appear here?
And this seemed not to be a physical body, but a soul, similar to the soul of the fat Taoist priest who escaped before.
Brother Gui's soul gradually became clear from virtual to real, and he could switch his soul freely between virtual and real.
"Brother Gui's strength is indeed unfathomable." Li Xiuchang thought to himself.
To be able to have his soul leave his body means at least he has reached the level of transformation, and to be able to switch between reality and illusion means at least he has reached the level of refining emptiness!
However, Li Xiuchang was no longer in a state of excitement, and this was not something to be surprised about.
He would not be surprised by anything that happened to his neighbors.
Brother Gui nodded with a smile, looking at the eighteen bald donkeys rushing towards them, took the abacus magic weapon from Li Xiuchang's hand, gently moved five beads, and just moved "18", and the next moment the eighteen bald donkeys exploded together, and blood splashed everywhere.
It turns out that the abacus magic weapon can be used like this... Li Xiuchang was very envious.
Before, he thought it was cool to hit people with a door panel or a big seal, but now he thinks that Brother Gui can kill the enemy by moving the abacus, which is so cool!
Invisible pretense.
Brother Gui put away the abacus and pulled Li Xiuchang to the ground.
"Brother Gui, why are you here?" Li Xiuchang couldn't help asking.
Senior Brother Gui arrived too quickly. He had just used the abacus magic weapon for a short while when Senior Brother Gui arrived.
He even suspected that the biggest function of the abacus magic weapon was to summon Senior Brother Gui?
The powder on the ground in front of Li Xiuchang began to flow, and soon a line of words was spelled out: [I heard the sound of your abacus at the other end of Xianyin. ]
It turned out that Senior Brother Gui was in Xianyin, no wonder... But Xianyin is so dangerous, why is Senior Brother Gui here?
Li Xiuchang did not ask, it is better for him not to ask about the masters.
He turned to ask about the matter in front of him: "Senior Brother Gui, what is that tree?"
The powder on the ground flowed again, spelling out a few lines of words:
[This is the blood bodhi tree, a spiritual plant that a group of strong men from Jiufeng Temple watered with their own blood. It was just affected by the environment of Xianyin, and it had some changes, but the overall effect was still similar. 】
"Spiritual plants? There are such evil spiritual plants?"
Li Xiuchang has heard of many aggressive spiritual plants, but this is the first time he has heard of a spiritual plant that can gather a group of hands to attack others and even use Buddhist magic.
The powder on the ground changed, and this time there were several dense paragraphs of text:
[Back then, Buddhism gradually declined, and Jiufeng Temple was in a period of transition. The last few great Zen masters in the temple planted this blood bodhi tree before their death, and used their own blood to water it to help it grow, hoping that it could help the descendants of Jiufeng Temple to rebuild the glory of Buddhism.
After that, this became the tradition of Jiufeng Temple. Every Buddhist cultivator in Jiufeng Temple would come here to offer his own blood before his death, and leave his remains to guard the underground palace below.
Until later, Jiufeng Temple completely declined and was found by enemies. The only 18 Buddhist cultivators left in Jiufeng Temple escaped here through the teleportation array. They felt that their future was bleak and they were ashamed of their ancestors. In grief and despair, they committed suicide under this tree.
But the obsession in his heart was hard to dissipate, and it turned into eighteen ghosts, which merged with the blood bodhi tree and became one. From then on, the blood bodhi tree was controlled by the will of the eighteen ghosts.
As time went on, the evil spirits in the ghosts grew, gradually turned into evil spirits, and lost self-awareness. The blood bodhi tree completely turned into a vicious tree, which would capture all passing creatures and absorb blood to nourish itself.
And because of the obsession left by the eighteen ghosts before their death, the blood bodhi tree would be particularly obsessed with people who practiced Buddhist techniques. Once they met, they would capture them at all costs. 】
Senior Brother Gui really had a strong desire to share... Li Xiuchang didn't expect that Senior Brother Gui would say so much when he asked casually.
But how did Senior Brother Gui know so clearly?
When he thought of Senior Brother Gui's profession, it was not surprising. It was probably calculated again.
At the same time, Li Xiuchang also extracted a lot of information from Senior Brother Gui's text, which also solved many of his doubts.
The teleportation array of Jiufeng Temple was specially built by Jiufeng Temple for escape, so the destination of the teleportation array, that is, the underground palace, is undoubtedly the refuge of Jiufeng Temple.
The Buddha corpses in the underground palace are also the remains left by the deceased ancestors of Jiufeng Temple.
They volunteered to guard the underground palace after death.
Therefore, as long as you reveal your identity as a Buddhist in the underground palace, you will not be attacked by the Buddha corpses.
As for the blood bodhi tree, because there are eighteen Buddhist ghosts in its body, it can be explained that it can use Buddhist magic.
In addition, Li Xiuchang finally figured out why the eighteen bald donkeys chased them and even used magic to pull them back.
It turned out that the blood bodhi tree wanted him.
Because he was the only one who practiced Buddhist skills, he was specially taken care of by the blood bodhi tree.
"Brother, how do you plan to deal with this blood bodhi tree?" Li Xiuchang asked.
The text on the ground appeared and answered: [This blood bodhi tree is the blood of several generations of Buddhist practitioners in Jiufeng Temple. It carries the blood of hundreds of Buddhist practitioners. If it is destroyed, it will be contaminated with great karma. If it is in the outside world, it will not hurt to bear some karma, just as it is to eliminate harm for the people. However, in Xianyin, let it go. It is better to have less trouble than more. 】
"Brother, what you said makes sense." Li Xiuchang complimented, and his mind was thinking quickly about what else to ask.
It is rare to have such an opportunity to communicate with the big-mouthed Brother Gui, so I must ask whatever I want to ask.
Li Xiuchang suddenly thought of his mission on this trip.
The fat Taoist priest is dead, where can I go to ask the location of the Demon Sealing Land?
I can only ask Brother Gui.
But this time, when Li Xiuchang asked his question, Brother Gui did not answer as straightforwardly as before.
He took a deep breath, and his fingers couldn't help but want to move, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and it looked like there were little bugs crawling on his body.
But in the end, he forced himself to hold back.
Li Xiuchang felt guilty, and almost caused Brother Gui to shorten his life again.
Suddenly, Brother Gui looked at a place, and Li Xiuchang remembered that it was the place where the fat Taoist priest fell before.
Brother Gui grabbed it from the air, and grabbed an extremely solid ghost from the thick layer of powder piled on the ground!
The ghost was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears, and it was the fat Taoist priest!
Li Xiuchang didn't expect that this guy didn't reincarnate after his death, but turned into a ghost.
The fat Taoist priest was still a little confused at this moment, as if he had just manifested a ghost, and he hadn't figured out what was going on, and he hadn't even reacted to the fact that he was dead.
He was caught in Brother Gui's hand and shouted: "Spare my life!"
Brother Gui signaled Li Xiuchang to interrogate him, and the fat Taoist priest cooperated very well in Brother Gui's hands, answering whatever he asked.
Li Xiuchang asked for the required information in a few words.
The fat Taoist priest did not know the exact location of the Sealed Demon Land, only the leader of the Blood Flower Sect knew it.
But as an elder of the Blood Flower Sect, the fat Taoist priest also knew the approximate range based on his daily observations.
And this time the fat Taoist priest met with the envoys of the other three magic forces, mainly to bring them the token of the ancient demon cultivator in the Sealed Demon Land, so as to gain the trust of the other three magic masters.
In this way, the four families can unite and jointly unseal the ancient demon cultivator.
However, those tokens were already turned into dust in the sonic attack of the abacus magic weapon.
Senior Brother Gui controlled the text on the ground and said: [I will take this ghost. ]
Of course, Li Xiuchang had no objection. The fat Taoist priest was killed by Senior Brother Gui's abacus magic weapon, and he could not subdue the ghost of the fat Taoist priest's level.
"Oh right." Li Xiuchang suddenly remembered, "I forgot to ask, how did the Blood Flower Sect know about the teleportation array of Jiufeng Temple?"
The text on the ground changed: [No need to ask, I know this. Jiufeng Temple once had an abbot. After the decline of Buddhism, he lost his way and eventually betrayed Jiufeng Temple and voluntarily fell into the devil's way. Many years later, he became a famous devil in the Blood Demon Way, nicknamed 'Blood Buddha'. The secret of the Jiufeng Temple teleportation array should have been mastered by the Blood Demon Way since then. ]
"Brother is knowledgeable and well-informed, which makes people admire him." Li Xiuchang complimented.
Brother Gui waved his hand: [It's nothing, I used to practice Buddhism, it's normal to know some of the history of Buddhist forces. ]
Li Xiuchang was surprised: "Brother, have you been a Buddhist practitioner?"
[I joined Buddhism when I first started practicing, but later found that Buddhism was not suitable for me. I would only be unable to move forward if I continued, so I gave up Buddhism and followed Taoism. 】
"Brother." Li Xiuchang pointed to the blood bodhi tree behind him and reminded him, "That tree is here again."
Brother Gui had already noticed the movement of the blood bodhi tree without Li Xiuchang's reminder.
This time, the blood bodhi tree once again condensed eighteen blood monks.
It's just that it can be clearly seen that the blood monks this time are different from before. They are bigger and look more robust and imposing.
And this time, the eighteen blood monks did not rush to attack, but started to stack up like a human wall as they did before when they used their magical powers.
The eighteen blood monks pinched their hand seals at the same time, and the blood light and the Buddha light intertwined on them.
In the end, the eighteen blood monks merged into one and turned into a huge Buddha with a height of dozens of feet!
Li Xiuchang looked envious. If his Dharma image could be so tall, he should not be far from becoming a Buddha in the flesh.
Brother Gui looked indifferent, and Li Xiuchang was relieved when he saw this.
Brother Gui raised his hand, and a beam of light shot out of his soul, and when he landed, he turned into a golden-haired ape.
The golden-haired monkey grew taller in the wind, and in a blink of an eye it suddenly became a giant ape that was more than 500 feet tall!
The giant ape raised its foot and stepped down, crushing the huge Buddha who was dozens of feet tall into a pool of bloody mud.
