After hesitating for a long time, Yuan Xiujie finally drank the blood tree sap that was suspected to be 'ancient immortal blood'.
"How do you feel?" Cheng Huo asked after seeing him take the juice.
"I felt like there was suddenly more strength in my body, and I was very irritable."
Yuan Xiujie described: "This force is constantly competing with the 'power of pain', and then canceling each other out."
After a moment of this, he suddenly showed joy and said, "I can feel that after the two forces are offset by each other, the unrefined 'power of pain' in my body is obviously reduced."
As soon as these words came out, Chengshuo and others felt excited.
The old monk Wusheng explained on the side: "According to the ancient records of our small Buddhist temple, the power contained in the sap of the blood tree is called the 'power of flesh and blood'."
"Ordinary monks who accidentally consume the sap of the blood tree will be aroused by the 'power of flesh and blood', and will eventually fall into madness and die."
"But it's different for monks who have unrefined 'power of pain' in their bodies."
"When they take the blood tree sap, the 'power of pain' in their bodies will offset the 'power of flesh and blood', so not only will they not fall into madness, but it will also play a role in resolving the 'power of pain'."
Wu Sheng's words are not difficult to understand.
If Cheng Sheng comes to his senses: "Isn't this the same as fighting fire with fire?"
"Fighting fire with poison?" Wu Sheng's eyes lit up and he praised: "This word describes it very appropriately!"
Chengshuo looked at the 'blood fruits' on the blood tree and said, "What about the fruits on the blood tree? What's the use of eating those fruits?"
"It's the same." Wu Sheng said: "It's just that compared to the juice, the 'power of flesh and blood' in the blood tree fruit is more and stronger."
"If you swallow it hastily, it is likely that the 'power of flesh and blood' will overwhelm the 'power of pain', leading to unpredictable serious consequences."
"So I don't recommend that you eat the fruit. If you want to dissolve the 'power of pain', you just need to drink some juice."
Is that so....
Cheng Huo glanced at the blood fruits hanging on the blood tree with suspicion in his eyes.
at the same time.
Seeing that Yuan Xiujie was safe and sound, and had successfully resolved the 'power of pain' in his body, the other monks also gave up their worries.
Everyone stepped forward and picked up the blood tree sap in containers.
Survive a group of seven people.
One of the strange monks suddenly became greedy while receiving the juice, so he used his flying sword to cut off a small section of the bloody branch.
He planned to take the branch away and keep it for other purposes in the future.
only....
The moment he cut off the branch, the monk seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying.
He suddenly fell to his knees without warning, his eyes widening.
"I...."
The monk couldn't stop trembling all over his body.
"What's wrong with you?" The two companions who were accompanying him saw him and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
The monk didn't say anything, he just fell straight to the ground.
After a moment, he stopped breathing.
"Amitabha!"
Seeing the monk's death, the old monk Wusheng explained: "This blood tree is like the afterimage of the 'Ancient Immortal'. It already existed thousands of years ago."
"There is something magical about this tree being able to be preserved for so many years... So while we are taking the sap, we should also maintain a sense of awe."
After hearing what the old monk said, when Chenghuo, Tieniu and others looked at the blood tree again, there was a hint of awe and fear in their eyes...
After taking the blood tree sap, the 'power of pain' in everyone's bodies was resolved one after another.
The only exceptions were Tieniu and Chengshuo.
"Weird."
Tieniu looked puzzled and asked: "Why do I feel that the 'power of pain' in my body is not only not resolved by the 'power of flesh and blood' of the blood tree sap, but is actually in a stalemate with the 'power of flesh and blood'?"
After hearing this, Cheng Huo felt something was wrong in his heart, so he put the water bag containing the blood tree sap into the storage bag.
He remained silent, just watching the changes.
at the same time.
After hearing what Tieniu said, Wu Sheng was shocked, with a hint of joy in his tone: "What's the stalemate method?"
Tieniu described it: "It was like two armies facing off... Not only did the two sides not break out into a war, but they faced each other on the battlefield because they were evenly matched."
"well!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Sheng's face became even more joyful: "Okay! It's exactly what I thought!"
There was undisguised excitement in his tone: "Actually, the 'power of pain' that we monks practice is a reward from the creature 'Buddha' to us all living beings."
award?
As soon as these words came out, all the monks present looked at the old monk.
The latter continued: "Although the creature 'Buddha' feeds on human painful emotions, it itself has no means of extracting human painful emotions."
"So it needs humans to help it."
"So, in order to encourage people to torture each other or torture themselves to extract painful emotions, 'Buddha' will give the torturer the 'power of pain' as a reward."
"This is also the real reason why the 'power of pain' can only be absorbed by whoever tortures it."
"The 'Power of Pain' is a reward given by 'Buddha' to torturers."
"If others dare to take it away by force, they will be punished by the 'Buddha' and will feel endless pain as a result."
"Just like you are now."
"Of course, this kind of punishment is not insurmountable."
As the old monk Wusheng spoke, he looked towards the blood tree again.
He continued: "Just like this blood tree...the blood tree contains the 'power of flesh and blood' corresponding to the 'power of pain'."
"The 'power of pain' comes from 'Buddha'."
"As for where the 'power of flesh and blood' comes from, I'm not sure."
"But in short, this power can compete with the 'power of pain' of 'Buddha'."
"It is precisely because of this that after taking the sap of the blood tree, you can resolve the 'power of pain' coming from the 'Buddha' in your body."
"The decomposition process of blood tree sap is generally divided into two situations."
"The most common one is that the two forces cancel each other out in the human body and eventually dissipate into nothingness, as if nothing happened."
"And another extremely rare situation is like Tieniu, where the two forces in the body form a confrontation between the two armies."
"In other words, these two forces form a delicate balance in the human body."
"By maintaining a stalemate without canceling each other out, the power will be preserved in the human body so that it can be used at any time."
The more Wu Sheng talked, the more excited he became.
He looked at Tieniu as if he were looking at a piece of flawless jade: "Shengsheng, do you know that your physique is unique among thousands!"
At this moment, Wu Sheng looked at Tieniu like an idiot looking at a little girl who had no ability to resist.
Those eyes were full of naked desire...
Realizing that something was wrong, Tieniu subconsciously stepped back a little, and said nervously: "Master, what do you want to do?"
"Amitabha!"
Wu Sheng proclaimed the Buddha's name with a hint of fanaticism in his eyes: "The great Buddhist monks want to solve the great catastrophe in the West by summoning the descendants of the Buddha and using the method of the true 'Buddha' to come into the world."
"But in my little Buddhist opinion, this is completely wrong..."
"After all, the creature 'Buddha' is already so powerful that we humans cannot understand it. Once it loses control, the consequences will be disastrous."
"So the way my little Buddhist thought of was not to bring a 'Buddha' into the world, but to strengthen himself."
"My little Buddhist does not save the world, only saves oneself."
"Through practice, make yourself stronger to a certain extent, and then use it to fight against the great catastrophe of the West..."
As Wu Sheng spoke, the enthusiasm in his eyes gradually turned into a look of compassion.
He said to Tieniu: "And if you want to do this, the first thing you need is your body..."
"Your body can contain the power of creatures such as 'Buddha' within the body, forming a balance without dissipating."
"This is your gift."
! !
Upon hearing this, Tieniu was shocked.
Without saying a word, he immediately took out a dagger and put it on his neck, and quickly distanced himself from the old monk.
There was a hint of threat in Tieniu's tone: "Don't come over. If you dare to take action, I will kill myself directly. I would rather die than let you have an easy time!"
After saying that, he turned to Chenghuo and the others and said, "Chenghuo, you go first and leave me alone!"
"snort,"
Wu Sheng sneered and said meaningfully to Tieniu: "Disciple, why do you think I said so much nonsense just now?"
"Calculate the time, those heart-relieving pills I gave you before are about to take effect."
