The God and Buddha are actually me

"who I am?"

The old Taoist priest seemed to have remembered something, a playful smile appeared on his face, and the fishing rod in his hand changed in some way.

The fishing rod turned into a fluffy fox tail, filled with a strong evil spirit.

"This is the tail of the demon fox. I borrowed it specially for use. Does it look familiar to you?"

Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved and he looked at the fox tail carefully.

The fox's tail hair is bright and soft, with a strong demonic aura. It exudes a strange power under the moonlight, seeming to be able to confuse people's hearts.

If he hadn't been gifted with the Heavenly Eye, he might have fallen into obsession after seeing it too much.

With a flash of lightning, he blurted out: "That nine-tailed demon fox in hell?"

He finally understood why the fox's tail felt vaguely familiar. When he transformed into Wang Lingguan, he had entered hell and seen the demon fox.

"Are you that demon fox?"

Zhang Jiuyang felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy for a moment. If it was the nine-tailed demon fox that escaped from trouble, it would be no wonder that he had such terrifying illusions and supernatural powers.

Unexpectedly, the old Taoist priest shook his head and smiled after hearing this, and said: "Nine tails? That fox is not worthy. It only has seven tails, and the eighth and ninth are just magic weapons it has refined, used to show off and scare people. "

"I'm just borrowing it for a while."

After hearing these words, Zhang Jiuyang suddenly realized that no wonder the fox demon was imprisoned in hell. It turned out to be a paper tiger.

Zhang Jiuyang had found it strange before that the fox demon's realm was judged by its tail. The nine tails could be called the celestial fox, corresponding to the ninth realm in the human world, which is the realm of becoming an immortal and attaining the Tao.

However, based on the performance of the fox demon in hell, it was completely unworthy of the title of Nine-tailed Sky Fox.

Not only was he in jail, but he was also frightened by the crazy old man from the Eight Realms, who looked like he was timid and bullied the weak and afraid of the strong.

It turns out that the last two tails are the magic weapons it refined, not the real Taoism.

But this old Taoist priest could 'borrow' it so lightly. Could it be that he...

Suddenly, Zhang Jiuyang's pupils widened with a look of shock. He carefully looked at the old Taoist priest's eyebrows, and the surprise in his expression became more and more obvious.

"Who are you……"

The old Taoist priest put away his fox tail, straightened his Taoist robe, nodded with a smile, and looked expectantly.

"Are you the crazy old man who wanted to be my disciple?"

Zhang Jiuyang blurted out.

The smile on the old Taoist priest's face froze in an instant. With his determination and Taoism, he actually felt restless, as if this place was a bit hot.

"You were crazy at that time, saying that you couldn't beat me, and I also practiced Jade Cauldron Xuan Gong, so you insisted on worshiping me as your teacher. Before I could refuse, you kowtowed -"

As Zhang Jiuyang was talking, he suddenly found that he could not open his mouth, as if it was sewn shut.

"At that time, I was cultivating walking fire and was possessed by demons. I was confused and confused. How could I take what I said seriously?"

"besides……"

The old Taoist priest looked at him deeply and said, "Is it really you that I worshiped at that time?"

Zhang Jiuyang's heart skipped a beat, and then he remembered that at that time he invited Wang Lingguan to get on top of him, and the other person saw Wang Lingguan, not Zhang Jiuyang.

"I am willing to accept that person as my master. As for your kid..."

He smiled and shook his head: "Being my apprentice is more than enough."

After saying that, bright golden light shone from head to toe, and the vast power of pure Yang was like a vast ocean, endless, and even the river was dyed golden.

An invisible wave enveloped the surroundings, and Zhang Jiuyang was surprised to find that his connection with heaven and earth seemed to be cut off.

Golden light dojo, pure Yang mana!

At this moment, what is in front of me is not a Taoist, but a Taoist Yang God with golden light flowing like a god!

The eighth realm, the Yangshen!

"The physical body of the old Taoist is still in the prison of hell. The person who comes to see you is the poor Taoist Yang Shen. Maybe you already know my identity."

The old Taoist priest smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to unblock Zhang Jiuyang's silence spell, and said seriously: "I am not a crazy old man, nor is I your apprentice, but the thirty-first-generation master of Jade Cauldron Palace, whose Taoist name is Yuzhen. Common name Miao Shenke."

Zhang Jiuyang looked at Taoist Yang Shen in front of him, feeling the vast power of the same sect and coming from the same source, and felt an inexplicable kindness in his heart.

I really couldn't tell that after the crazy old man shaved off his beard and combed his long hair, he changed so much. Even though he was old, he could still see the handsomeness and graceful demeanor in his bones.

"I'm Zhang Jiuyang, I've met Headmaster Yuzhen!"

Zhang Jiuyang quickly bowed and saluted, and was shocked by the power of the Yang God. You must know that even Zhuge Yunhu, who is in the Sixth Realm, cannot leave his body for too long, but the headmaster of the Jade Cauldron Palace can directly penetrate the yin and yang. boundary!

"Headmaster..."

Hearing this title, Miao Shenke felt a little sad in his eyes, and for a long time, he laughed at himself.

"The huge Jade Cauldron Palace has been inherited for thousands of years. In the end, I am the only one left. The title of headmaster is really a joke."

After a pause, he looked at Zhang Jiuyang and said: "Speaking of which, you have been very kind to me. If you hadn't woken me up that day, I'm afraid I still wouldn't be able to understand the real Jade Cauldron Mysterious Skill, and I would always be crazy and sane. Unclear.”

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes lit up. Since the other party accepted this sentiment, things would be easier to handle.

"Senior, have you ever seen Ah Li? Is she okay now?"

"That little girl is smart and her life should not be cut off. She absorbed part of the power of the Yin Thunder and should have died. However, in a flash of inspiration, she used the Yin Walking Technique. Her soul came to the underworld, and she happened to meet the successful deducer. I regained my sanity."

Zhang Jiuyang was excited and said hurriedly: "Is she fine now?"

Miao Shenke smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm saving her, but there's still a little bit of heat left."

Zhang Jiuyang was wondering about this sentence when he heard his voice again.

"I made an agreement with the Lord Fu that my true body can no longer leave the underworld, so I chose the method of going out of the Yangshen to find you."

"Looking for me?"

Zhang Jiuyang immediately smiled and said: "Senior, if you have any instructions, it doesn't matter."

As long as the other party really saved Ah Li, he would no longer care about the illusion test just now.

Well, he couldn't care less about a powerful person from the Eighth Realm of Yangshen.

Moreover, Zhang Jiuyang could vaguely feel that the other party seemed to have some very special purpose in coming to him this time, so he 'borrowed' the Demon Fox's Tail to test him.

"I'm looking for you to tell you something."

"What's up?"

"There is a problem with the Jade Cauldron Xuan Gong."

The understatement shocked Zhang Jiuyang. The last time he saw the other party in hell deducing from the beginning, he had a premonition, but when he actually heard the other party say these words, he was still a little surprised.

The Taoist sect has been passed down for thousands of years and is known as the best mysterious skill in the world. There is something wrong with it?

"This technique has been tampered with. Not only has its power been reduced, but if it continues to be practiced, it will gradually make people become obsessed with it. It can range from mental damage to madness, to death of the body and soul at worst!"

"And the most important treasure of our Jade Cauldron Palace, the Immortal Cauldron passed down by the Patriarch, is also fake. I now suspect that we have never seen the real Immortal Cauldron."

"Someone wants to deliberately destroy my Jade Cauldron lineage, and they have succeeded."

In the Golden Light Dojo, in the Yangshen Realm, Miao Shenke revealed this secret that could shock the world, his expression extremely serious.

Zhang Jiuyang felt chilled in his heart when he heard these words. He seemed to smell a huge conspiracy.

At the same time, he also thought of the cauldron in the Penglai Island Immortal Palace. That cauldron was probably real, but he hesitated and did not tell the news for the time being.

"That's why my uncles and uncles in Jade Cauldron Palace fell one after another, and no one could ascend to immortality. As a result, the dignified Taoist Holy Land was destroyed by the hands of demons."

"Although I took the wrong approach and relied on talent and luck to forcefully practice the wrong technique to the eighth level, if things go on like this, I will inevitably die in the end. Fortunately, I met you."

"In other words, it's that Wang Lingguan."

Miao Shenke looked at him deeply and said: "The golden whip of Wang Lingguan hit me on the head, but it woke me up and made me realize the problems in Xuan Gong and start to deduce it again."

"Now I have deduced the first eight pictures of Jade Cauldron Xuan Gong, corrected the problems, and traced the source. Therefore, my spiritual intelligence has naturally recovered, but I still pretend to be crazy."

"But the problem is, I haven't been able to deduce the ninth picture."

Zhang Jiuyang said in surprise: "Senior, isn't the cultivation of the Eighth Stage Yang God enough for you to find out the real culprit behind the scenes and take revenge?"

"not enough."

Miao Shenke shook his head and said solemnly: "The other party's tampering with the technique shows that he is afraid of the Jade Cauldron Xuan Gong. Only when I practice it to the highest level can I be completely sure."

"Senior, how can I help you?"

"You can't help me unless... let that Wang Lingguan appear again."

Zhang Jiuyang coughed when he heard this and remained silent.

Seeing this scene, Miao Shenke had a hint of disappointment in his eyes. It seemed that the idea of ​​asking Wang Lingguan for help was out of the question.

"Zhang Jiuyang, the reason why I used illusion to test you this time is because I have experienced similar things."

He suddenly changed his tone and said: "At that time, like you, I had to make a choice between the dilemma, whether to save the life of senior sister or the lives of ordinary people. I finally chose the latter."

"Master did not blame me. Instead, he passed the position of headmaster to me. He said that it would be better for the world to fail the Jade Cauldron Palace than for the Jade Cauldron Palace to fail the world."

"Zhang Jiuyang, if you had just chosen to save the lives of ordinary people, you would now be the thirty-second generation headmaster of the Jade Cauldron Palace."

"I will not only teach you the Jade Cauldron Mysterious Technique that you have rediscovered, but I will also teach you all the seventy-two true secrets of the Jade Cauldron Palace and the thirty-six holes of magical powers."

"There is also this treasure tripod. Although it is fake, it is still a valuable treasure. In addition, there is also a token that symbolizes the identity of the leader - the Yuqing Xuanmen treasure seal, which will also be given to you."

He looked at Zhang Jiuyang with a half-smile and said, "Boy, do you have any regrets now?"

Zhang Jiuyang was startled when he heard this, then smiled and said: "No regrets."

"Even if you give me another chance to choose, I will not sit idly by and let Ah Li do nothing. To practice Taoism, one must have a compassionate heart, but if you can't even protect your loved ones around you, then what's the point of succeeding?"

These categorical words made Miao Shenke slightly distracted.

"What if this wasn't an illusion? What choice would you have made?"

Zhang Jiuyang thought about it seriously, but finally shook his head and said: "I don't know either. Maybe you won't know what you will do until you really face it."

"But one thing I can confirm is that I will never draw my sword and kill myself. That is a cowardly act and an act of escape."

Suicide in the illusion is a resistance to the caster, but in reality, Zhang Jiuyang would never do this.

"You are so smooth, it's the same as saying nothing."

Miao Shenke glanced at him with some displeasure, shook his head and said: "It seems that you are only destined to Yuding Xuan Gong, but not to my Yuding Palace."

After saying that, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Jiuyang's eyebrows.

The vast power of the soul attacked, and Zhang Jiuyang felt a little bit like being taught by the gods in the visualization picture.

In an instant, many mysterious and obscure information poured into his sea of ​​consciousness, evolving into fairy pictures, mantras, and insights.

The information was so huge that Zhang Jiuyang felt a little dizzy with his soul power.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of excitement flashed.

This is... the real Yuding Xuan Gong after Miao Shenke traced the origin!

"Although the Purple Thunder Book is also considered a top-notch method, it is still far behind the Jade Tripod Mysterious Art of our sect. Boy, the reason why you can't refine those Yin Thunders is because what you practiced was never the real Jade Tripod Mysterious Art."

"Go back and cultivate this skill again, swallow the Yin Thunders from his Feixian Cave, and rebuild your foundation, so that those old guys who play with Yin Thunders can see what is the first Mysterious Art of Taoism!"

Zhang Jiuyang was overjoyed. In this way, those Yin Thunders that have been entangled with him for a long time can be refined, and after re-cultivating the Mysterious Art, his strength will probably have a leap!

"That Ah Li..."

He mentioned Ah Li again, and he couldn't let her go after all.

"Haha, don't worry, she will see you soon."

After that, he pointed to the reflection in the water and smiled, "Look, isn't that little girl fine?"

Zhang Jiuyang looked closely and found that the illusion world had not disappeared and still existed.

The people who ate the pears began to itch constantly, and bark grew on their bodies, and then they all turned into pear trees.

These small pear trees entangled together and turned into an extremely large pear tree, and finally produced a "fruit".

Under Zhang Jiuyang's gaze, the "fruit" suddenly opened its eyes, and its crisp voice was full of joy.

"My old pear finally came out~"

"From now on, I will not be the Monkey King, but..."

"Old Mother of Pear Mountain!"
