What kind of evil method is this? This is the righteous method..

Chapter 139: Facing the Holy Father, the battle of words can be left to Jiekong

“This is the golden Buddha.”

After returning to the county town, Jiekong was attracted by the Buddha nature emanating from the golden Buddha. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but was slapped away by Guiwu.

This is the result of Guiwuzou Temple. It is extremely precious and is a top-notch sacred object in Buddhism.

If it had happened in the past, when the Golden Buddha appeared, he would have been targeted by many thieves. But now the social atmosphere is so good that when the people around saw the Golden Buddha, they were not greedy. Instead, they were very pious. Some of them put their hands together and bowed in the direction of the Golden Buddha, hoping for the Buddha's blessing.

With the golden Buddha in his hand, Master Guiwu's temperament has changed significantly. He looks more sacred and dignified. With the blessing of the golden Buddha, Buddha's light seems to emerge from his body.

At this moment, for those who have never seen the true Buddha, Master Guiwu is like the true Buddha appearing in the world.

Lin Fan was quite confident in his own Taoism, but at this moment, the oppression given to him by Master Guiwu holding the golden Buddha was extremely strong.

The masters with and without the golden Buddha are two extremes.

"Master, let's go." Lin Fan said.

"Okay, I'm ready." Gui Wu nodded.

Lin Fan looked at Jie Kong, "Bald donkey, what do you say?"

Jiekong said: "I have been practicing Buddhism and have made a great vow to persuade people to put down their butcher knives and become Buddhas right away. Since you are going to save the Holy Father, how can I not follow you?"

Lin Fan didn't want to say much about Jiekong. Just like the master said, Jiekong was not a bad person, it's just that his words really deserved a beating. For those who did many evil things, they would rather meet Jiekong than Lin Fan.

If you meet Lin Fan, you are doomed, but if you meet Jie Kong, you can put down your butcher knife and have a chance to survive.

Lin Fan returned the staff and cassock to Jiekong. Jiekong was obviously overjoyed after getting his lost items back. He opened his mouth to speak, but as if he had learned his lesson from the beating, he quickly shut up, stroked the things he had found, and stopped asking for a beating.

Guiwu felt very relieved. It was obvious that Jiekong had grown after experiencing all kinds of things.

This is a kind of progress in spiritual practice.

They left the inn and headed towards the northern headquarters of the Huangtian Sect. The journey was long, but now that they had determined their goal, they naturally quickened their pace. With their speed, it wouldn't take too long to reach the north.

The further north you go, the more depressing the situation becomes. It seems that the demons and evil people in the north don't care much about Xuan Dian's reputation.

It seems that he feels that the Holy Father is backing him up and is not afraid of his madness.

Gui Wu looked around and said in a deep voice, "We should have been known to the Holy Father about our whereabouts. I feel like I am being spied on."

Lin Fan said, "The Holy Father has many spies, so it's normal for our whereabouts to be known. But even so, what can we do about it? Unless the Holy Father hides away like a stray dog, but I don't think he will. As an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, he still has to keep some face."

The voice was quite loud and spread widely, and it was meant to be heard by the people around.

"Speaking of the Holy Father, there is one thing that makes me laugh to death."

"What's the matter?" Gui Wu asked.

Lin Fan said, "It turns out that the place where my poor master obtained the cultivation method was the first one that Holy Father went to, but he looked down on those cultivation methods and stayed there. However, he didn't know that there were hidden secrets in the seemingly ordinary cultivation methods. Holy Father is blind."

"Is there any chance of such a thing?" Gui Wu and Xuan Dian sang the same tune and chatted enthusiastically.

"Some time ago, I met the Holy Father, the Human-Faced Eagle, and performed this technique in person. He was amazed at how incredible this technique was and even wanted to practice it. But I did not teach him," said Lin Fan.

If you listen carefully, you can hear a rustling sound coming from a hidden place in the distance.

Gui Wu was also amazed at the magic spells that Xuan Dian knew. Those spells were truly too overbearing. How could such earth-shaking magic spells appear in this Dharma Ending Age?

Some Taoist friends also said that the Demon Subduing Fist can be deduced into the Buddha-Demon Meditation Seal.

He thought it was bullshit.

How come a good and upright Buddhist boxing technique has become neither Buddhist nor demonic?
Gradually, the surrounding sounds disappeared without a trace.

Lin Fan knew that the unknown thing that was spying on their whereabouts must have left, and might have passed back what they had just said.

Although he did not have much interaction with the Holy Father, an old monster who had lived for so long must be proud and confident.

It should be impossible to run.

Gui Wu sighed, "Fellow Daoist, you have skills that even I cannot compare to."

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Master, if you want to learn, you can take a look at the Taoist scriptures first. I will give you what I know when the time comes."

Gui Wudao: "Forget it, forget it. Buddhism is profound. Even I only understand the basics. How can I have the energy to get involved in Taoist magic?"

Jiekong on the side licked his face and said: "Master, I am willing to learn."

"Get out of here." Lin Fan glanced at him and rejected him without any mercy.

Jiekong looked at Xuan Dian and thought he was really a bad guy. Not only did he cause physical harm to him, but he also attacked his mind with words.

Fox Daji and Cat Miaomiao were both stunned.

Jiekong is so shameless, how could he even ask such a question? He has slandered our Taoist priest many times and even wants to learn his magic. He is just dreaming.

They continued on their journey, passing through several counties where they saw the whereabouts of Huangtian Sect demons. After entering the city, Lin Fan's Eye of Merit was opened, and he picked up the axe and started chopping. Gui Wu followed silently, as he had long been accustomed to his fellow Taoist's style of doing things and did not think there was anything wrong with it.

On the contrary, Jie Kong couldn't bear it and thought that the Taoist priest was too cruel. Why not hand these people over to him and let him convert them with the Buddhist teachings he had learned? As the saying goes, it is never too late to abandon evil and do good.

"Bald donkey, don't influence my Taoist priest's temperament. This time we are going to find the Holy Father for a decisive battle, and there are many crises. My Taoist priest is accumulating momentum to slay demons and eliminate monsters. If you insist on influencing my Taoist priest, I will not be polite to you." Fox Daji warned Jiekong with a very stern tone. This was the first time she spoke such harsh words to someone since she followed the Taoist priest.

Jiekong said, "How can you, a little demon, treat me like this?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Although I am not as good as you in Taoism, I am not afraid of you. I have the courage to attack you. If you dare to hurt me, I will not let you go." Fox Daji said coldly.

Miaomiao, who was standing by, also clenched her fists, and was eager to charge forward to support her sister.

Even the green-haired rat bared its two big front teeth, as if it was about to rush forward.

Jiekong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Master Guiwu, "Jiekong, shut up. Miss Daji is right. Fellow Daoist Xuandian's method of cultivation is different from ours. Don't keep talking here. Once the Holy Father is destroyed, the world will surely be at peace. You can convert anyone you want at that time."

Gui Wu attaches great importance to this action of joining forces with fellow Taoists to kill the Holy Father.

Even with the golden Buddha in his hand, he did not dare to be careless.

I dare not say that I can defeat the Holy Father with 100% certainty.

Jie Kongla shrugged his head, feeling a little aggrieved. The master was so strict that it made him feel uncomfortable.

Gui Wu did not look at Jie Kong, but looked at fellow Taoist Xuan Dian who was hacking and killing in front of him. He found that fellow Taoist was absorbing the resentful and evil spirits of the killed monsters, and was indeed gathering strength.

The local people were surprised. They didn't expect that someone would kill people in the city, and those killed were all members of the Huangtian Sect. A storyteller who had been lurking in the city disguised as an ordinary citizen shouted when he saw this situation.

"Master Xuan Dian is here."

"My fellow villagers, when Taoist Xuan Dian appears, the blue sky will also come."

The storyteller had a very loud voice, and the whole city knew it. Some people secretly listened to the storyteller telling the deeds of Taoist Master Xuan Dian. They were all extremely excited and walked around happily telling the stories and spreading them.

If it were in the past, no matter what, Lin Fan would definitely have to have a good chat with the storytellers, but now, after clearing out the local monsters, he continued on his journey with the master and others.

The northern part of Huang Tian Sect.

Lang Xiao and Mo Ren stood outside the Holy Father's retreat, waiting.

"What's the matter?" The voice of the Holy Father came.

Lang Xiao's feelings towards the Holy Father have changed greatly. Those scenes kept appearing in his mind. He tried his best to find his true self, but for him, the more he accepted, the more tormented he felt inside.

"We have news that Xuan Dian and Gui Wu are heading here." Lang Xiao said.

There was no sound in the house. After a while, the door opened and the Holy Father walked out with red eyes. He looked a little tired. Perhaps just as the news came back, the Holy Father was thinking about those spells.

Anyway, he had never seen the Holy Father like this before.

Unconsciously, deep in Wolf Howl's heart, he seemed to no longer call the Holy Father "Master".

Mo Ren said: "Master, let me take some masters from the sect to stop them."

The Holy Father closed his eyes, and when he opened them, his red eye sockets returned to normal. "No need. Your cultivation is not good enough. You will die even if you go. Xuan Dian and Gui Wu have joined forces. It seems that they have brought the Golden Buddha with them. Well, I will wait for them here. No one has ever challenged me in all these years."

The Holy Father was calm and confident, and he remained calm even when he learned that there was no Golden Buddha with him.

After saying this, the Holy Father returned to the practice room.

Only Lang Xiao and Mo Ren were left at a loss as to what to do.

The two left and walked far away.

Mo Ren stopped and looked at Lang Xiao, "You secretly went to Master's study, right?"

Lang Xiao's expression changed, and he wanted to deny it, but Mo Ren didn't give him a chance. "Don't try to lie to me. You can't lie to me. What do you know? Why have you changed so much since you came back?"

"If Master hadn't been in seclusion and had no time to take care of you, do you think Master wouldn't have noticed your changes?"

Mo Ren knew that Lang Xiao had been in the deep mountains and dangerous places, practicing the way of all beasts, and his temperament was very easy to capture. Whether it was true or false, and if there were any changes, he could tell the problem with a careful look.

Lang Xiao looked at Mo Ren, then looked around and whispered, "Mo Ren, do you know who your parents are?"

Mo Ren frowned, "Parents? How can I have parents? We were rescued and raised by our master when we were young. Why are you talking about this?"

"Have you ever thought that our parents actually love us very much, but we were taken away by force by someone, or that we are different from ordinary people, like humans but not human at the same time?" Wolf Howl said.

What he said was exactly the same as what Xuan Dian asked him.

Mo Ren's eyes gradually turned cold. He was unwilling to listen to what Lang Xiao said. "Do you want to say that Master harmed us? Or do you want to betray Master?"

Lang Xiao didn't say much, but took out a booklet and said, "Read it yourself. I copied it down in the study."

After handing the thing to Mo Ren, Lang Xiao left in a hurry.

……

At this time, Lin Fan and his companions passed by a mountain and were shocked by the gloomy energy shrouding the mountain. Even though it was broad daylight and the sun was shining brightly, it still could not block the bitingly cold gloomy energy.

“Master, the yin energy here is so strong that many people are probably buried there. Let me go up the mountain and collect them in the Umbrella of Ten Thousand People. When I go to fight the Holy Father, let them lend me a helping hand.” Lin Fan said.

Master Guiwu nodded and followed his fellow Taoist in whatever he wanted to do. In order to prevent the Buddha power emitted by the golden Buddha from shocking the Yin Qi in the mountain, the master cast a spell to temporarily cover up the Buddha power of the golden Buddha. Walking into the mountain, many corpses merged with the ground. As you walked, you could find bones emerging from the soil. I don't know how long they have been dead, but it must have been a long time.

"Amitabha." Master Guiwu shook his head. Even though he had not seen it with his own eyes, he knew that these corpses exposed in the wilderness must have lived in extremely miserable conditions when they were alive.

Lin Fan cast a spell, and the purple Taoist energy in his body filled the sky, covering the sky and the sun. At the moment of covering, the temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly, and a biting cold emerged. At the same time, many eerie and strange ghost howls rang out.

"Soul summoning."

As he cast his spell, horrible gusts of wind blew up in the surroundings, and countless ghosts filled with resentment rushed towards this side from all directions.

"You died unjustly, and your resentment is still there. I will first let you get rid of your resentment, and then we can have a good chat."

Lin Fan used the water and fire refining method to reach bliss and heaven, and a mysterious wave of magical power spread out. The surrounding space shook violently, and the resentment on the ghost dissipated like smoke.

Master Guiwu was extremely impressed by his fellow Taoist's magic. In an instant, he was able to dispel the resentment from these ghosts. If it were him, he would need to recite scriptures to resolve it.

As the resentment dissipated, the ghost gradually condensed into an illusory human figure.

Men and women of all ages.

"I am Xuan Dian, why did you all die here?" Lin Fan asked.

A ghost said: "To answer what you said, Taoist priest, there was a demon who practiced here before. He abducted us to practice evil methods, but he would not let us leave and trapped our souls here."

Lin Fan said, "Master Guiwu and I will go to the northern part of the Huangtian Sect to kill the demons there. Are you willing to practice with me and lend me a helping hand?"

"I'm willing."

"Well."

Lin Fan immediately used the soul refining technique to transform these wandering ghosts into ghosts, and then threw the Umbrella of All People into the air.

"go."

With a flick of his two fingers, the ghosts poured into the Umbrella of All People.

There is a Yin Di Eye in the Umbrella of All People. The Yin energy below this place is thick and rich, which naturally cannot be wasted. As it is activated, a steady stream of Yin energy flows into the Umbrella of All People.

Yin Diyan cursed Xuan Dian's ancestors countless times.

But there is no way for it now.

I can only work hard for Xuan Dian.

As a large amount of original Yin energy merged into the Umbrella of All People, the Taoist souls and spirits in the umbrella were boiling. The Yin souls that had just entered the umbrella absorbed the Yin energy and began to transform, evolving towards a higher level.

Gradually, as the negative energy in this place was completely absorbed, the bone-chilling negative energy disappeared without a trace, and people did not feel the slightest bit of discomfort.

The Dao Soul entering the body can enhance one's strength.

Once the Demon Subduing Fist was upgraded to the Demon Summoning Fist, it could accommodate the Dao Soul in the body and continuously strengthen itself. Even now that it has been upgraded to the Buddha Demon Meditation Seal, it still has this ability.

In order to deal with the Holy Father, he must have increased his strength to the extreme.

Whether it's spirit or state.

Everything has to be pulled to the extreme.

"Master, what do you think of the situation here? They kidnap people to practice evil ways, and imprison their souls here. Do you want to turn this place into a ghost world?" Lin Fan asked.

Gui Wudao: "It should be the same as what the Taoist thought. The one who can have such evil methods must be the Huangtian Sect."

"What a pity." Lin Fan felt quite regretful.

His regret was that the monster was not here. If he was here, the monster would definitely pay a heavy price.

He didn't know how many monsters were waiting for him in the northern headquarters, but he thought it shouldn't be too few. The only regret was that he didn't encounter any big monsters.

I think it has something to do with the Holy Father. The little demon doesn't care and doesn't have any self-ideas. He just feels more comfortable with the mountain behind him.

But those big monsters all have their own calculations. Who would like to have a mountain pressing down on their head? Any big monster with extraordinary skills would definitely go to other places to become the king, rather than face an old monster like the Holy Father who has lived for hundreds of years.

a few days later.

An unimaginable towering city appeared before their eyes.

"We have arrived at the northern headquarters." Lin Fan was amazed as he looked at the city in front of him. There was no evil spirit in the sky, but instead there was a dazzling aura.

"Could it be that the Holy Father built the city on a spiritual vein?" Lin Fan was shocked. With the Holy Father's ability, if he really wanted to choose a place to practice, he would definitely look for the best place. An ordinary place would not be in his eyes.

Think about how the Southern Headquarters compares to this place; there is simply no comparison.

Gui Wu sighed, "I have to say that the Holy Father is a genius. In this Dharma Ending Age, there are not many people who can truly be considered as cultivators, but the Holy Father is definitely one of them."

"Does this poor Taoist count?" Lin Fan asked.

"Forget it." Gui Wu was helpless. In this situation, why did fellow Taoist still care about these things?

"Master, what about me?" Jiekong also wanted to know whether he was considered a true practitioner in the master's mind.

Gui Wu looked at Jie Kong and said, "You don't count."

"Ah? Why?"

Without giving Master Gui Wu a chance to speak, Lin Fan spoke first: "You have damaged your brain, do you think you can calculate?"

"Amitabha." Jiekong wanted to argue with Xuandian, but when he saw the two women looked like they were about to eat him, he closed his eyes and silently chanted the Buddha's name. It seemed to be 'Amitabha', but it could also be 'Fuck you.'

As for what it means, it depends on what the listener thinks.

A deep voice came from afar, "Xuandian, Guiwu, I have been waiting for you here for a long time, come in."

Apparently, the Father was aware of their arrival outside.

"Master, this guy has some pretty good skills. We knew that as soon as we got to him," Lin Fan said.

Gui Wu took out the golden Buddha, wiped off the covering method on the golden Buddha, and released the Buddha's power. "Daoyou, be careful. This is the territory of the Holy Father. Don't be careless."

Lin Fan had rarely seen the Master so serious. Now, facing the Holy Father, the Master's expression was very serious.

They walked towards the city.

There were no civilians in the city, not even any houses. There was only a majestic palace in the center of the city, and they were still some distance away from the palace.

Lin Fan looked around and saw many strange things standing on the empty ground.

These things are not ordinary.

Everything that appears here has its magical use.

Lin Fan studied them carefully and found that the placement of these things made sense.

As expected, the longer you live, the more you learn. What the Holy Father learned was indeed quite complicated and had reached an extremely profound level.

In the distance, a figure was walking towards this side. It turned out to be Wolf Howl.

Lang Xiao came up to them and looked at Xuan Dian with complicated eyes.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Do you know who you are now?"

Wolf Howl did not answer the question, but said: "Come with me, the Holy Father has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lin Fan understood that Lang Xiao had found the answer. It could be seen from the way he addressed the Holy Father that Lang Xiao had always called his master the Holy Father before, but now he just called him the Holy Father.

He must feel the love of his parents in those organs.

Who else would be willing to bear the negative impact of spiritual practice for him and ensure that he is sober, except for the unreserved love of a parent?

"Wolf Howl, is there a spiritual vein under this city?" Lin Fan asked.

"do not know."

"What are those strange things around here? Are they formations set up by the Holy Father?"

Wolf Howl slowed down his pace, his voice as soft as a mosquito's. "The Holy Father has learned a lot. It is indeed a part of the formation. Once it is destroyed by external forces, the formation will automatically activate."

"Oh? Where are the other members of your Huang Tian Sect?"

"There are not many followers. The Holy Father does not like crowds, and not everyone can stay here. Only the four Dharma protectors remain here for the Holy Father to command." He knew everything that Lang Xiao said.

But he also didn't know much.

In the past, he had always been practicing with the beasts in the deep mountains and forests, and seldom cared about the things happening here.

"Hey, where is your black tiger?" Lin Fan asked.

"Black Tiger has returned to the forest. He doesn't need to stay by my side."

Master Guiwu, who was following beside them, was quite surprised. He did not expect that Taoist Xuandian was so familiar with this donor, and what the donor said seemed to be a reminder to them.

Lin Fan looked at Lang Xiao's tall back and had a thought: could it be that Lang Xiao was planning to turn against him?
Only those who are prepared to die will leave the things they value in a safe place.

Perhaps for Wolf Xiao, he felt that he could not survive this time, so he sent Black Tiger away, not wanting it to stay and die.

Not long after, there was a high platform in front, where the Holy Father stood like a god, looking at Xuan Dian and Gui Wu with a smile on his face.

There was no sense of tension or fear at all.

Before they could speak, Jiekong, who had been silent the whole time, came out and frowned, saying, "Are you the Holy Father? Why do you hide your evil nature so deeply? You appear normal on the surface, but you are already corrupted in your heart. I, Jiekong, am willing to recite a scripture to help you lure out the evil nature from deep inside your body."

"After all, only by floating on the surface can this evil nature be transformed."

Lin Fan and Gui Wu didn't speak.

All gazed at the Holy Father on the high platform.

Just leave the war of words to Jiekong.
