Chapter 207 5.8 The Soul-Eating Monk in the Human-eating Mural
Chapter 5 I started cultivating in Liaozhai
5.8 Cannibal murals and soul-eating monks

"Just now, Deng was too blind to recognize Mount Tai. What's your name, master?" Deng Feng said politely, but his tone and expression didn't have the slightest hint of politeness.

"The monk is old and faint, and has long forgotten the name of the Dharma. The donor just calls him 'Old Monk'." If it weren't for his ruddy face and bright eyes at this moment, maybe Deng Feng would really believe it.

"Master is so humble." Deng Feng's tone was already cold.

He had already tried the mental scan just after he came in, but found that the effect was greatly reduced. The clear distance that was originally more than a thousand meters could not even cover the shadow area in the hall.

The old monk looks lean and lean, as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind, but he is very dangerous in the mental scan. His whole body is really no different from an ordinary human body, but there is no trace of life in it, as if he is a moving corpse. There is no mental fluctuation at all, just like a machine.

The most important thing is that although everyone can hear the old monk's voice and there is an old monk standing in front of them, they are very sure that the voice is not from the monk, because all the words are directly echoed in the mind!

"Ling Yatou, keep your mental shield at all times, Ghost Girl, mental shock wave, Long'er, plundering formation, and protect the little fox by the way!" Deng Feng finished the arrangements softly, then took a few steps forward and looked up at the statue, "Old Monk It’s better to step aside and let your master talk, right, Master Baozhi?”

Among the Deng family, Cheng Lingsu has the highest mental cultivation, so she has the best protection; although Xiao Longnu has high mental power, her mental resistance is definitely at the bottom; Xiao Zhao has the highest aggression and is definitely the best candidate for a sharp knife; Deng Feng is more Average, but with the highest level of martial arts, ready to be used as a human shield.

The old monk quietly stepped aside.

"Donor is so knowledgeable!" The voice sounded again, and this time everyone judged that it was the statue in front of them that was "speaking"!

From the beginning of the mental power scan, the statue gave Deng Feng a very complicated feeling.

On the one hand, this is indeed a statue. Although the material that looks like gold is hard to determine the specific name, it is indeed some kind of metal.

But on the other hand, the statue has very clear mental fluctuations, and the intensity is very strong. At least, no one in Deng Feng's family can compare with it!

The good news is that this mental wave is not so strong that it cannot be resisted, at least Deng Feng can still feel the upper limit.

"For thousands of years, the master's reputation has been spread all over the world. I'm afraid no one would have thought that the master would live in this small wild temple, sitting and watching the flowers bloom and fall in the world." Deng Feng gently held the long sword in his left hand upright. He turned to the right side of his body and held the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand.

"The donor is too worried. This world is full of entertainment, colorful and complicated, and the beauties are as beautiful as jade, and as beautiful as flowers. But in the end, you will not be able to escape this rolling world, and in the end it will be nothing. Why not follow the old monk and listen to the Dharma, and seek a grand future life?"

The sound came clearly and resounded in everyone's ears, making people feel very comfortable and making them want to kneel down and listen to the teachings.

"If you listen to this Buddhist teaching too much, you will be like them, right?" Deng Feng pointed to the mural on the west side with a smile. Such spiritual induction was of no use to the Deng Feng family, because the spiritual strength of Baozhi's soul did not exceed too much.

He pointed to the mural on the east side and asked, "I'm just curious, what are they?"

The murals on both sides were beautiful and looked the same, but in Deng Feng's perception and expectation, the two were completely different.

The entire lecture map gives people the impression of mental chaos, full of all kinds of resentment and madness, because these so-called "mural characters" are actually the souls of real people, so the death, resentment, and blood around the murals It has become a reality!

Not only that, the murals are only the core of these things. The entire hall is actually filled with these things, but the surroundings of the murals appear to be more concentrated.Deng Feng just glanced at it and didn't dare to look at it again. If he continued to look at it, he would probably suffer mental trauma.

The Beauty Picture is another situation. On the one hand, the art of looking at the Qi has basically no effect, as if it is really a mural; but on the other hand, in Deng Feng's mental induction, the painting constantly exudes the sound of melancholy. , constantly working on the minds of the people around, inducing the onlookers to join in. For example, the scholar in the original work just glanced at the girl and entered the mural.

"It's just another group of pink skeletons." Baozhi's voice was a little helpless.

"When Sakyamuni realized the Tathagata, evil demons from outside the world appeared to stop him. Some of them were the witches of the world of desire. The demon king Bo Xun even sent the three top witches of love, greed and pleasure to take action. However, Nothing effective.

Later there were threats of force, inducements of money and status, etc.Bo Xun tried all his methods, but in the end he was unable to stop Sakyamuni. In the end, he succeeded in becoming the Tathagata Buddha who "is the only one in heaven and on earth."

Bo Xun was dissatisfied and debated with Tathagata for many days before leaving. He stayed and recited the iron law that has been passed down to this day, "The Tao eliminates demons, and the Tao eliminates demons." It seems that the master is not as bright as he seems. "It was Cheng Lingsu who spoke this time. She was the only one in the Deng family who truly believed in Buddhism.

"Wow, isn't it? Master has cooperated with the Demon Realm? Or let me put it another way, this is actually a hole left by the Demon Realm?" Deng Feng's tone was relaxed, but his eyes were extremely cold!
One thing is universally recognized by any country or nation, that is, enemies can be forgiven, but traitors will never be tolerated!
This Master Baozhi obviously chose to betray Buddhism and cooperate with the devil for some purpose, and the "Buddha Dharma listeners" who can't be seen on the mural are the dead victims!
"Amitabha!" Baozhi said the Buddha's name, but it was unspeakably ironic in Deng Feng's eyes!
"Historical records show that Master Baozhi dedicated his life to Buddhism and died without any illness at the age of 90. After his body was cremated, his relics appeared and were dedicated to the temple for worship. But because it lasted too long and wars broke out frequently, the authenticity has long been impossible to test.

Unexpectedly, the master was not willing to die, but chose to cooperate with the devil. His soul did not return to the underworld, but continued in the world through the devil's means.

These two murals must be tools for your cooperation. You absorb the soul power of these victims and continue it. The dark side of their souls, such as lust, greed, lust of tongue, etc., all return to the devil world.

But when there are believers who come, as long as they enter the hall, they are either seduced by witches or confused by Buddhist teachings. In the end, their flesh and blood are offered to the murals, their souls are transformed into soul power, and they are absorbed by the demon world. The master has such a vicious mind! "Cheng Lingsu's face turned pale. It was obvious that his faith had been greatly impacted!

"Amitabha!" It was still a Buddha's name, but it resounded in everyone's ears like a thunder. In everyone's mental perception, it seemed that they were facing this powerful "spiritual storm". Cheng Lingsu, who was in charge of the mental shield, instantly changed his face. Whiter.

With a cold snort, Deng Feng unsheathed his sword, and a fierce sword energy whizzed towards the statue. However, it seemed to hit an invisible wall in front of the statue. After a ripple, most of it disappeared strangely, and the remaining sword energy disappeared. It didn't even manage to leave a single scratch on the statue.

Almost at the same time as Deng Feng made his move, Xiao Zhao's spiritual thrust hit the statue accurately, and everyone heard the screams ringing in their ears - obviously, they wanted to deal with the remnant soul of Master Baozhi, and physics The attack is basically ineffective, and it must be a mental shock or energy attack!
For a time, the entire Sword King team attacked. Even the little dragon girl who was in charge of plundering the formation took action many times. Baozhi Soul launched many counterattacks in spiritual ways, including illusions, impacts, etc.

But neither side could do anything to the other, and Deng Feng couldn't even leave any traces on the statue; the only thing that made everyone feel the effect was that Baozhi's mental attack was significantly weakened.

"Stop!" Deng Feng suddenly heard a loud shout, and the speaker was of course Baozhi Canhun.

Although he didn't want to leave any trouble, Deng Feng still calmly asked the girls to take a few steps back. Of course, the most important thing was that Cheng Lingsu, who was in charge of the mental shield, had been seriously injured. His face was pale and his orifices were bleeding. He might not be able to continue the beating. What good results will there be?

"Master, are you ready to die?" Deng Feng shouted coldly.

"Donor, we have no inextricable hatred, why do we need to fight to the death?" Deng Feng didn't feel any mental fluctuations in his voice, and it was obvious that Baozhi couldn't hold on any longer.

"Deng is not the one who strikes first. Whether to fight or not, you decide, how long to fight, and when to end, then it's not your turn to speak." Deng Feng has never had the habit of keeping a hand, and killed everything. This is his usual style. "I'm afraid the female donor won't be able to last for such a long time." Baozhi is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

"Sir, Sister Ling's life is intact, but her injuries are serious." Xiao Zhao explained the situation immediately.

"Young Master, I'm fine!" Cheng Lingsu helped Xiao Zhao to Deng Feng's side. If Xiao Zhao hadn't held her up, she might not have been able to stand still. She thought Deng Feng nodded and showed a forced smile.

"Master is very calculating. During this period, because my consciousness has been covering the whole place, I have always felt an energy flowing from the lecture mural to you. After such a long time, Master's soul must have recovered a lot, right?
Your remnant soul has always been in the statue, so we have been attacking the statue, but your foundation is in this sermon mural, right? "

"The female donor is worrying too much!" Guan Guan replied in a cold tone, but while speaking, he started to attack mentally again!
Xiao Longnu's mental power quickly unfolded and she easily blocked the attack, because while Cheng Lingsu was speaking, Deng Feng had already asked her to wait in the sea of ​​consciousness to block it. Cheng Lingsu's injury was not serious, and if he continued to carry it on, it would probably cause unpredictable consequences. as a result of.As for the hallucinations that appeared together, everyone casually ignored them.

"Qiang!" Deng Feng's sword passed over the lecture mural, and then he heard Bao Zhi let out a shrill howl. There was a sword mark on the mural, and blood even oozed out!

"Donor, please stop, there is no life or death between you and me - ah!" Deng Feng was not interested in talking to an evil spirit!
"My lord, stop for a moment!" Seeing that Deng Feng made more than a dozen sword strikes in a short period of time, Cheng Lingsu stopped him.

"Ling girl, what's wrong!" In his perception, Baozhi's remnant soul was already crumbling, and as long as he worked harder, he could easily be driven away.

"The soul power that the master has obtained over the years has become less and less, right?" Cheng Lingsu did not answer, but asked Baozhi.

"Ahem, little girl, you don't have much cultivation at all, but you can analyze so many problems with only a little knowledge. Those famous sects are afraid that they are blind and let you go." Baozhi's voice is now a bit erratic. .

"Sister Ling, what are you talking about?" Xiao Zhao asked a question that everyone was curious about.

"It is impossible for the stone murals to bleed. The only explanation is that the demon world kept a hand when trading with Baozhi. This is not a mural with the demon world's function at all, but some kind of demon from the demon world.

Master Baozhi must have thought he had refined it back then, but in fact it was not under his control at all, right? Cheng Lingsu asked, looking at the statue with a sneer.

"It's a pity that if this poor monk had the qualifications of a female benefactor, how could he have ended up where he is today." Baozhi sighed, obviously admitting it.

"This mural is indeed a type of demon. It feeds on all kinds of souls, but it can also purify the souls of normal people into pure soul power. However, it also consumes itself, and its consumption has been increasing over the years. Otherwise, The poor monk won’t be stuck here until now.”

"Then, you have been stumbling upon each other, and until now, no one has achieved the goal. You are still a ray of remnant soul barely surviving. The devil has never been able to form a complete body, so you have to continue to act as a mural, which happens to be obtained by us fishermen. Lee, hehe!”

Deng Feng finally understood. "As for the other mural of the goddess, I'm afraid it's really just a group of witches from the demon world. They only have the ability to lure spirits. They are actually just cooperating with this soul-eating demon. You also need to share a share, and then very few of them will get into your hands. Right? Hahahaha!"

"Master, you were originally a Buddhist monk, but you cooperated with the demon world, betrayed your faith, and betrayed the human race. Do you regret it?" Cheng Lingsu asked seriously.

"Regret? The poor monk just regrets that he didn't dare to hurt anyone back then, and only dared to secretly absorb a little soul power and essence. Although the absorbed person will be weak for a long time, his life will not be affected; if he had followed the instructions of Demon King Bo Xun earlier, , how could it be today!" Probably knowing that his doomsday had come, Baozhi laughed wildly and continued to clamor.

"Hmph!" Deng Feng poured more than [-]% of his mana into the long sword, and a loud shout passed over the mural. He only felt a roar from the sea, and the mural was cut into two parts, split into pieces.

The demon girl mural, on the other hand, had little strength. It was chopped into pieces of rubbish by Xiao Zhao's horizontal and vertical chops, leaving only the remnant soul inside the statue, which became weak at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Master, let's go. I won't say anything about making you suffer, because you will only lose your soul and you are not even qualified to go to hell." Deng Feng looked at the statue with a sneer.

"Hahahaha." After a while, Baozhi's remnant soul became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared completely under Deng Feng's mental scan.

Almost at the same time, the old puppet monk fell to the ground without saying a word, and his body quickly shriveled up, eventually shrinking to the size of a baby.

"Huh -" Deng Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the stone slab.

"Sir, can a person really be so vicious in order to survive? Even our Tushan clan, in fact, most of us just secretly do things to collect yang and replenish yin, and all of them are done consensually. There are very few who dare to directly hurt people's lives!"

Qingfeng came to Deng Feng and asked timidly.It was a big battle, because she had always been hiding behind and was well protected, but she was not hurt now.

"And he is also a famous eminent monk." Xiao Zhao glanced at the statue with disgust.

“These usually very decent people will become darker once they lose their bottom line.

Their minds are very complete and their will is very firm. If they are always upright, there will be no problem; once they fall into evil ways, they will be much more terrible than ordinary people. "

Deng Feng said helplessly, remembering some similar examples, such as Yue Buqun and Hua Tiegan. "Okay, pack your things and get ready to rest.

Long'er, go chop some firewood; Ghost girl, set up the stove. Ling girl, the two of us won't move. The little fox will stay and take care of you - Ling girl, Ling girl? "

"Sir, I'm so sleepy. Let me sleep for a while. I'll be fine." Cheng Lingsu tilted his head and was about to fall to the ground, but Deng Feng caught him.

"Girl, practice "Meditation" immediately. No matter what, don't sleep!" Deng Feng quickly input mana into her. This battle was mainly due to severe mental trauma. In fact, the mana consumption was very average.

After a lot of fussing, the messy things were finally arranged. Without even caring about the Buddhist quiet place, they cooked a big pot of beef in the Main Hall.

After a hot dinner, everyone sat around the fire and finally regained some energy. After all, this battle was too exhausting. Cheng Lingsu didn't even eat and was still in a meditative state.

For three whole days, Cheng Lingsu did not move. If her breathing and physical condition had not been normal, Deng Feng would have felt like losing her. For these three days, no one went anywhere. They all meditated or practiced "Shangqing Dao". Sutra", or meditate with all their strength, but until Cheng Lingsu woke up, no one had even recovered half of their strength!
