Chapter 848 Selection (2)
The middle-aged man in green snorted coldly, and also looked in the direction of the tributary, then nodded happily: "So that's how it is, the Saint Huang Xiu has been successfully hunted down, and his tortoise shell has been perfectly removed... This old ghost has been hiding for so many years, but still couldn't escape from our hands... Hey, no wonder your branch has such leisure and elegance to go and fight with that Lu Yu."
An abnormal blush appeared on the face of the beautiful woman in blood-stained clothes.
Her body was trembling slightly, and her voice became up and down: "Haha, stop talking nonsense, don't disturb me... Haha, this Lu Yu, does have some talent... Haha, fine, you want to compete with me, and see how I squeeze your bones dry, let your soul fly away, and cut off all your hopes for the past and future!"
Xingshang River, 'normal river channel'.
On the stage, people were singing "Yiyi Yaya", Hua Dan and Wu Sheng were fighting happily, and the musicians were playing and singing with great ecstasy. The beautiful woman put her hands on Lu Yi's temples, rubbing them gently, and a trace of evil coldness kept invading Lu Yi's mind, but was constantly chopped off by the Taiming Emperor's axe.
Lu Yu's heart gradually sank.
He was thinking about how to escape.
Otherwise, if this beautiful woman realized that she had tried so hard for so long but had not been able to cause any significant harm to Lu Yi... God knows how many vicious restrictions there are in this garden?
A "guard dog" is a Buddha of the "Twelve Heavens" level.
The heritage of this garden is unfathomable. Even Lu Yi felt uncomfortable sitting here.
The beautiful woman suddenly laughed and said, "By the way, dear guest, don't be shy, little master. This is the fragrant tea that we grow, pick and stir-fry ourselves... Try it and see if it suits your taste?"
A beautiful maid with a translucent figure and a faint cloud of smoke around her, who was unclear whether she was a living person or a ghost, appeared quietly beside Lu Yi. She picked up the teacup on the small table beside her with both hands and smiled as she brought the teacup to Lu Yi's lips. In the teacup made of celadon with light blue spots was green tea that gave off a faint cool aroma.
This tea has no smell.
It has no fragrance or odor, just like a cup of frozen boiled water.
But when Lu Yi's lips touched the teacup, his heart twitched violently and he felt a great threat coming. He couldn't drink this cup of tea!
Lu Yu closed his mouth and frowned.
The big parrot lying on top of Lu Yi's head raised its head and chirped at the beautiful woman, "Your tea looks cheap... Tsk, you don't have the sincerity to entertain a distinguished guest... Young lady, can you show some sincerity? Go on stage and dance for me?"
The big parrot smiled brightly.
He chattered away, spouting a long string of words like "long", "white", "round", and "smooth" to the beautiful woman. If he had said these words in front of a daughter of a good family, she would have been beaten to death with sticks by her family.
The big parrot was talking happily, and the beautiful maid holding the teacup was surrounded by a cloud of light, as if she was in a "stiff state" where she "didn't know what to do".
The beautiful woman's hands also suddenly froze.
She tilted her head slightly, her smile frozen, and stared straight at the big parrot.
After a long while, the beautiful woman's eyes, which were frozen like glaciers, flickered with a faint light, and she laughed: "Little Phoenix, you are born with a good mouth... Eh? Is my sincerity in entertaining guests not enough? Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's my fault, it's my fault... Then, then..."
The beautiful woman waved her hand at the maid holding the teacup and said calmly, "Send up the best 'Eternal White Bone Marrow'!"
Lu Yi's face twitched violently.
'Eternal White Bone Marrow'... this name is not a good thing.
The big parrot's feathers trembled as well. He opened his mouth and was about to croak when, over the Xingshang River, the sound of war drums and horns rose to the sky. Waves of air-breaking sounds came from afar. Large groups of strong Scorpion men were waving colorful flags, holding colorful banners, driving strangely shaped metal chariots, and riding colorful flying warships. They were like dark clouds, gathering from all directions.
Just a hundred miles away from the opposite side of the Glass Monk, in the blink of an eye, over a million strong scorpion men gathered.
Among these scorpion men, the ones with the most terrifying aura are a few tyrannical men whose cultivation, according to Lu Yi's estimation, is around twenty kalpas.
In the Yin-Yang Heaven, the highest level of Buddha’s cultivation is no more than that of a True Buddha of Ten Kalpas.
However, in the ancient city of Loulan, the rules of heaven and earth here are very different from those of the Yin-Yang Heaven. Among these scorpion people, there are those who have broken through the ultimate level of Buddha in the Yin-Yang Heaven.
The skin of these scorpion warriors was light silver, and sharp blood-colored lines were wrapped around their skin like flames. Surrounded by many tribesmen, they gestured towards the glass monk and laughed coldly.
The Glass Monk looked at the scorpion men and shook his head slightly.
The prismatic ancient mirror on his head suddenly expanded and turned into a size of a hundred miles. Black flames condensed on the ancient mirror, and then a black light with a diameter of a hundred miles burst out and covered the million-scale scorpion army.
With a muffled sound, nearly a million Scorpion people disappeared in an instant.
Blood-colored relics, some as big as a human head and some as small as green beans, flew up into the sky and were swallowed by the Glazed Monk. Three colors of light flashed in the Glazed Monk's body, and his aura was obviously strengthened.
"Come on!" The Glazed Monk laughed happily, "I have been very weak due to lack of blood and food these years. Come on, you ignorant insects... The more the better, the more the better!"
The Glazed Monk held back on purpose, as there were tens of thousands of scorpion men in the scorpion army that were not covered by his attack.
At this moment, after a panic, these scorpion people bit their tongues and spat out blood, drawing mysterious blood symbols in the air, sending out the most urgent distress and warning signals from their family group.
Both sides of the Xingshang River suddenly became extremely chaotic.
A strong wind blew up, and the flags and banners suddenly accelerated and flew towards this side.
Farther away, on the other side of the river, a large area of jungle was violently destroyed. Under a large banner made of human skin and hair, hundreds of scorpion women with long flowing hair were busy, quickly setting up a void teleportation array with a diameter of several miles on the river bank.
As the teleportation array's light flickered, more scorpion men poured out of the teleportation array.
They brought more array equipment, and increasingly larger void teleportation arrays were continuously laid out on the river surface and in the air.
The evil spirit is overwhelming and the blood is lingering.
Finally, a void teleportation array with a diameter of 100,000 miles took shape in the sky.
A triangular blue-red moon appeared from behind a large patch of thick clouds, and the blue-red moonlight sprinkled and fell on the teleportation formation. The loud sound of war drums went straight into the sky. Terrifying aura surged, shattering the thick clouds in the sky. The rolling evil spirit condensed into three golden scorpion shadows that were thousands of miles long in the sky.
The golden scorpion had blood-colored lines wrapped around its body and six pairs of slender, transparent membranous wings growing on its back.
The huge image of the Dharma was hanging high in the void, and its sharp eyes were fixed on the Glazed Monk. The terrifying fluctuations of the magic power disrupted the laws of heaven and earth, announcing the arrival of the Buddha-level powerful man from the Scorpion Clan!
When this group of scorpions were abandoned in the ancient city of Loulan, a great Buddha from the Buddhist sect cleansed their blood, opened their spiritual wisdom, and enlightened their wisdom. Therefore, the main practice of this group of scorpions originated from the Liangyi Tian Buddhist sect. Behind their condensed giant scorpion images, there are flaming Buddha niches and lotus halos, which have a bit of Buddhist atmosphere.
“Evil demons and heretics…how dare you, a mere insect, call yourself a Buddha?” The Liuli monk laughed strangely.
He licked the corner of his mouth and whispered, "Come on, come on ... Let me fill my stomach... By the way, let's cause some trouble for the owner here!"
There were three scorpion men with golden skin and blood patterns. They looked exactly like humans except for their eyes which were slightly golden. Their eyes sometimes gathered and dispersed like a group of fireflies. They came in a mighty force, surrounded by a large group of scorpion men.
In the sky, the three golden scorpion images slowly shrank, and finally became hundreds of feet long, hovering above the heads of the three powerful scorpion men.
The blood-colored Buddha light condensed into a flaming shrine, shrouding the three powerful scorpion men. Wisps of blood smoke intertwined with each other and transformed into a straight blood flag that rushed into the void - there was no escape, these three powerful scorpion men were all in the realm of "One Day"!
And the Glazed Monk, that old sinister fellow, had already hidden the strange sign behind him - the twelve light rainbows that reached the sky and the earth were hidden by him, concealing the fact that he had control over the 'Twelve Heavens' Avenue.
There are three great Buddha-level Scorpion people, over a thousand Buddha-level masters, the remaining Great Bodhisattvas and Bodhisattva-level Scorpion people number in the millions, and there are also ordinary True Immortal-level Scorpion people, totaling over 100 million - the four holy clans in the ancient city of Loulan are like this. Once the battle formation is really started, their people are like dark clouds gathering, and the number of people participating in the battle will reach a number that will make the enemy despair in a very short time!
Insects have extremely terrifying reproductive abilities.
Under the strange control of the flow of time in the ancient city of Loulan, no one knows how many ethnic groups there are in the four holy clans, and how many masters with high realms have been cultivated by relying on the number of clansmen.
Although, the practice of these scorpion people is really rough.
Under the scanning of Lu Yi's divine sense, apart from the three Buddha-level Scorpion people, the mastery of a certain great way by these three people can be said to have reached the extreme... The mastery of the 'Tao' by the other Scorpion people is just like a one-year-old baby playing with sculptures, which is really dragging and messy.
Even for those three Buddha-level Scorpion Men, their control over the Great Dao has certainly reached the pinnacle, but judging from the Dao rhythm emanating from their bodies, their use of the Great Dao is very crude!
It's like everyone has a perfect grasp of a heavy knife. Some people can use it to carve patterns on tofu, some can use it to carve words on hair, but some people can only use it to chop a big buffalo into seven or eight pieces, and the chopping is messy and the ground is in disarray...
The feeling these three scorpion men gave to Lu Yi was that they were at the level of chopping wild boars with swords!
It's over.
No need to look.
The idiot who delivered the food to your door is here!
Moreover, these three unlucky guys did not have any spiritual aura or mysterious hidden energy. In other words, they did not have any precious magical weapons that could match their strength!
Tsk!
The powerful masters of the four holy clans in the ancient city of Loulan don't seem to have the habit of refining "natal Buddha treasures"?
That's right, they are just insects that have been refined by Buddhism and had their wisdom opened by Buddhism. They have not received the truly complete Buddhist inheritance. How could they know anything too profound?
Everything is just instinct.
The three scorpion men came forward with their heads held high and their chests puffed out. They did not use any magical powers or spells, but walked arrogantly to within a hundred feet of the Glazed Monk, summoning their blood and energy to engage in close combat!
This... makes sense!
As an insect, it is natural to advance and kill, and hunt prey.
As a Buddhist practitioner, with an indestructible golden body, one can defeat demons with violence; this is the righteous way passed down by the sect.
As a Buddhist cultivator who was born from an insect and has even cultivated to the level of a powerful Buddha, unless his brain is broken, he has a strong body and tenacious vitality. Why would he use those troublesome, long-winded, and cumbersome magical powers instead of choosing more straightforward close combat with the physical body?
The three powerful scorpions formed a "品" shape and rushed towards the Glazed Monk. A layer of stratum corneum that looked like golden armor floated on their skin, and wisps of flame patterns and blood-colored lines entangled in the golden stratum corneum. The sound of blood shaking like a tsunami came from their bodies. A terrifying force that was enough to destroy a standard heaven with one blow surged out and turned into hundreds of golden-red fist shadows that smashed into the Glazed Monk's limbs.
A powerful scorpion man was still shouting excitedly: "Be careful... Break his limbs, pick them up and make dumpling fillings... If his internal organs are broken, I hate the taste of 'foie gras' the most!"
Another powerful scorpion man shouted happily: "Indeed, it is more joyful to eat the liver and heart of a person alive as a whole!"
The glass monk smiled.
Looking at the fist shadows coming from the sky and bombarding his limbs, he hesitated for a moment, then waved his two translucent glass arms to meet the fist shadows.
"Clang, clang, clang", a series of ear-piercing metal-metal clashes sounded. The Glazed Monk was beaten back by the three Scorpion Mighty Men. His body was trembling slightly, and there were even faint cracks on his arms. In the cracks, there was even a sticky three-color liquid oozing out, and he looked like his body was severely injured, and the blood in his body was scattered.
The Glazed Monk cried out in pain and was beaten back into the garden by three powerful Scorpion Men.
Countless green willows shook in unison, and countless green branches rose into the air like whips, entwining with each other and wrapping around the three scorpion masters. There were frequent "crackling" sounds, and the three scorpion masters were entangled and unable to move. The golden cuticles on their bodies kept breaking into deep cracks, making a harsh cracking sound.
The Glazed Monk laughed wildly, and in his hand there appeared a glazed scimitar of strange shape, inlaid with nine black and lively eyes. He swung the sword silently and easily killed the three scorpion men.
A jet of black flame spurted out, and the three scorpion men screamed miserably. Their souls had no time to escape, and were forcibly refined into three blood-colored relics the size of water tanks. The black flame swirled, and the three relics emitting scarlet light quickly collapsed and turned into the size of a human head, and were swallowed by the glass monk in one gulp.
Three powerful Buddha-level scorpion men were killed by the Glass Monk with the help of the power of prohibition. He roared and rushed out, killing those Buddha-level and Great Bodhisattva-level scorpion men masters who were surrounding the three powerful scorpion men.
The scimitar flew into the air, and nine eyes left the blade and fell into the air, emitting a dark light.
With an evil light flashing, tens of thousands of Scorpion masters' bodies suddenly stiffened, unable to move anymore. The blade spun, and dazzling arcs of light filled the sky, killing them one after another. Sticky blood plasma with a highly poisonous smell splattered, and black flames ignited on the bodies of these Scorpion masters, which were also refined into blood-colored relics, which were swallowed by the Glazed Monk in big gulps.
"Haha! Idiots!" The Glazed Monk deliberately raised his voice: "I was originally no match for these three idiots, but you are too arrogant... You know there are restrictions and ambushes here, but you dare to rush in?"
The glass monk laughed happily.
Scimitars were whirling all over the sky, and the sword light covered the void for a thousand miles. Large groups of scorpion soldiers were killed by the sword light, and blood splattered all over the sky.
The scorpion man's miserable howl rose to the sky.
Large groups of defeated soldiers fled in all directions in a panic, issuing various warnings and calls for help. With the help of the Scorpion People's strange talents and magical powers, the news that they were attacked and the three commanders were "ambushed" spread quickly to far away places.
The Glazed Monk carefully controlled the blade light, avoiding those large and small void teleportation arrays, for fear of delaying the Scorpion Clan's speed in mobilizing troops.
He killed almost all the masters in the scorpion army, and let the "henchmen" below the tenth level of True Immortal escape, screaming and calling for help.
Lu Yi sighed: "He is a cunning one."
The beautiful woman was still rubbing his temples, and the cold and piercing evil spirit kept invading his mind, but was constantly chopped off by the axe of the Emperor Taiming. The big play on the stage was still going on, the female martial artist was still jumping around, and the four male martial artists were performing with great dedication...
In the pavilions surrounding the garden, several windows slowly opened, and a cold gaze shone through the windows and fell on Lu Yi.
Malice strikes.
Lu Yi felt cold all over.
The pretty little maid appeared out of thin air again with a bright smile. She held a tea set made of a human skull in her hands. It was filled with a white juice that was as fine and sticky as tofu brain and had a strong smell of blood. The juice was like magma, bubbling. Every time a bubble burst, a thin wisp of cold air rose into the air, condensing on the surface of the juice into twisted, hideous human faces with their mouths wide open, crying and wailing silently, and then suddenly exploded.
"Maybe the tea just now was really not good."
"This Wanjie White Bone Marrow is different... It is already the best fragrant tea for entertaining guests in our house." The beautiful woman placed her index fingers on Lu Yi's temples. Her long, bright red nails were like blades, emitting a chilling chill that could penetrate Lu Yi's temple at any time.
She leaned close to Lu Yi's ear and whispered with a smile, "Little Master, please taste it for a while."
The big parrot opened its mouth and roared out a bunch of vulgar language.
But this time, the beautiful woman was not affected by the big parrot. Her attention was focused on Lu Yi. She smiled softly and said, "Little Master, please taste it as soon as possible... This Wanjie White Bone Marrow is not easy to come by. If you miss the time, the taste will be greatly lacking. It would be a real waste of heaven's gift, what a pity."
Lu Yi stared at the human skull teacup held in front of him without moving.
The big parrot's eyes were randomly picking, and pieces of phoenix fire were rising under its feathers.
The caracal lay on Lu Yi's shoulder, curled up into a ball pretending to be extremely honest. Its sharp claws stretched out silently from its four thick fleshy paws. The silver-white translucent claws were extremely hard and sharp, and quietly locked onto the beautiful woman's carotid artery.
The green snake is even more straightforward.
The big parrot and the caracal hadn't moved at all, but he had already quietly exhaled wisps of colorless and poisonous mist from Lu Yi's sleeves.
Countless Scorpion Men were running around wildly in all directions, stirring up the Tiangang River wind. The strong wind blew through the garden, just helping the Green Snake's poisonous fog to spread rapidly in all directions, covering the entire garden in an instant.
The Green Snake has also cultivated to a sufficient level. After following Lu Yi for so many years, the Buddha can make a stubborn stone nod, and the Lord Buddha can turn decay into magic... Those former powerful men of the Yin-Yang Heavenly Sect were so naughty that they threw a few nests of insects into the ancient city of Loulan, and they were able to breed the four holy clans. But the Green Snake has been following Lu Yi and has been influenced by him for so many years!
Therefore, the poisonous aura of the green snake is also permeated with a strong Taoist flavor.
The poison gas is not only extremely harmful to the flesh and blood body, but also has enough killing power to those invisible ghosts, monsters, evil spirits, goblins, etc.
Even more, his poison gas contained the innate and acquired Dao rhythm of Jiamu and Yi Mu. From the vitality of wood, the Dao of wind and thunder was derived. From the vitality of wood, the meaning of death and prosperity of withering flowers and plants was derived... Therefore, when the wind blows, the faster the poison gas spreads, the stronger the power it contains!
Inexplicably, I saw that the green leaves on the large weeping willow trees around the garden were becoming more and more lush and vibrant. Strands of extremely fine green Taoist charm turned into green threads visible to the naked eye and extended from the leaves, spreading rapidly to the surrounding branches and trunks.
These green threads quickly formed dazzling lightning patterns, which gradually spread from the trunk of the big willow tree to the surrounding ground. Looking down from the sky, the lightning patterns derived from these green willows actually outlined a huge lotus thunder Buddha seal on the ground!
This is the terrifying power of the various mysteries derived from the innate and acquired wood principles that the Green Snake now possesses.
Just like soft water, moistening silently.
With the help of the geographical advantage, just like the blooming and falling of flowers, the erosion is silent, invisible and traceless, without any signs... When the poison infects day and night, seeps into the internal organs, gradually lingering and becoming a disaster, once it erupts, it is almost impossible to cure...
In comparison, the explosive burning of the giant parrot's Way of Fire and the cutting of the caracal's Way of Gold are too sharp and violent, and their lethality is too strong and direct. On the contrary, they are far inferior to this strange restriction in effect!
The green snake's body squirmed slightly, and Lu Yi felt his small movement.
He sighed heavily and said with a wry smile, "May I ask if your master could come out to see me? Your tea doesn't look good... I'm afraid that after drinking it, I won't be able to control my life or death."
The beautiful woman smiled, and her two nails stretched forward slightly, piercing the oily skin on Lu Yi's temple. The slight stinging pain made Lu Yi shiver. The beautiful woman laughed softly and said, "There are countless tribes in the world, but how many of them can truly decide their own life and death, and can truly live a carefree and happy life?"
The beautiful woman chuckled: "Look at that bald guy, he is also the supreme ruler of the Buddhist sect in a heaven in this void. In that heaven, he is the only one who can call the wind and rain and is omnipotent... So what? After coming here, isn't he still a guard dog for our master?"
"Young Master, just drink this Eternal White Bone Marrow generously... If you can benefit from it, there will be endless good fortune waiting for you."
"Even if I can't benefit from it, it's nothing more than keeping company with that bald guy."
"Our master has collected so many guard dogs. Little Master is not the first one, and he certainly won't be the last one... Each of them was once a powerful figure... It's not shabby for them to guard our master's house!"
The beautiful woman finally revealed her ultimate goal.
This is a test.
If Lu Yi can endure the backlash after taking this so-called fragrant tea, he will have a so-called great fortune waiting for him.
If you can't withstand the backlash... haha, you'll be like the Glass Monk, with a chain around your neck, imprisoned under the stage, guarding this garden!
How could Lu Yi accept such a fate?
