This whip was made of extraordinary material, about three feet long, and extremely flexible. The head of the whip was faintly dark red in color, as if it had been soaked in blood, but because it had been used for too long, only a little blood stain remained.
And Su Ming couldn't easily destroy it with his physical body without using the Buddha Yuan. Moreover, although Ghost Buddha was not very powerful in combat, he was still a Yuan Shen cultivator, so the things he collected must be extraordinary.
He threw the ghost body of the ghost Buddha aside and began to study it carefully. If there is a spirit in the heart, there will be something accomplished. This whip can attract his attention among so many clutter, which shows that this thing is indeed destined for him.
With a thought in his mind, Su Ming found out his spiritual thoughts. The powerful spiritual thoughts quickly penetrated into the black whip and began to explore. There was no weapon spirit in the black whip, but Su Ming found a seal on it.
This seal is very complicated, and it has a somewhat sinister meaning.
"interesting."
Su Ming smiled softly, the color in his eyes deepened, and he began to violently crack it. The material of this whip was extraordinary, and it was difficult to damage even with violent cracking. Maybe this whip was just a container, and what was sealed inside was the most important thing.
Under the impact of his tyrannical spiritual thoughts, the seal was gradually washed away, and the strength of the seal became weaker and weaker. The whip also changed accordingly. The evil spirit seeping out of the seal became heavier and heavier, dyeing the whip into blood red.
"boom!"
Finally, the seal was cracked by the explosive force, and a soul shadow emerged from it. The face of this soul shadow could not be seen clearly, but it was condensed with strong evil aura. From Su Ming's perspective, the evil aura on this soul shadow was second only to The blood sword that is unstained by blood.
As soon as this soul shadow appeared, it almost caused a strange phenomenon in the world. Fortunately, Su Ming strengthened the surrounding magic circle in time, and it calmed down.
Who is it that has such a strong evil aura on his body? Su Ming became increasingly curious, sealed the surrounding area with his spiritual thoughts, and began to search for its soul.
But as soon as his spiritual thoughts touched the soul shadow, he encountered great resistance. Su Ming was even more surprised. With the intensity of his spiritual thoughts now, an ordinary soul body could not resist at all, let alone a residual thought. What on earth was he? people?
Under the forcible exploration of Su Ming's spiritual mind, he gradually saw the memory left in this remnant soul: beside the river, in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, an unparalleled figure stood here, looking in all directions, at his feet, A mountain of corpses lay there, and the whole river was dyed red.
However, this figure uttered, "It is not a crime of war to kill me here!" Then he swung his sword and killed himself. Then the scene turned, and the Bone Ghost appeared immediately. A peerless figure was holding a divine halberd in his hand. He was unparalleled in domineering power. Behind him were densely packed Yin soldiers, all of them filled with ghostly auras and evil spirits.
Suddenly, ten thousand Buddha lights appeared in the void, and several monks came across the void. Although they were kind-hearted and compassionate, they were not kind.
These monks started a bloody battle with this figure. In that battle, the rivers were cut off, the mountains and rivers were broken, the sun and the moon were dim, and all the Yin soldiers under his command were lost, and these monks were also injured accordingly, forcing those monks to have no choice but to He sacrificed himself and transformed into a relic to defeat him. In the end, a trace of his thoughts escaped, landed on the riding crop, and fell into the netherworld.
But that battle was so brutal that even the riding whip on his body was contaminated with Buddhist aura. Before he could recuperate, these Buddhist charms turned into a seal and sealed him in the riding whip until now.
Seeing this, Su Ming naturally recognized the owner of this riding whip. Who else could it be besides Xiang Yu, the famous Overlord of Western Chu?
In fact, Su Ming had previously wondered why even Cao Cao could become a ghost emperor, but there was no news about Xiang Yu in the Netherworld. Moreover, many people who were weaker than Xiang Yu in history also left traces in the Netherworld.
"You will be a hero in life, and you will be a hero in death!"
Logically speaking, even if Xiang Yu died and turned into a ghost, he must be so arrogant. How could he be silent and leave no trace at all? It turns out that he was sniped.
Xiang Yu inherited the remnant dragon energy of the Chu Kingdom and called himself the Overlord of Western Chu. In the Battle of Gaixia, he was ambushed by Han Xin from all sides and was defeated and committed suicide. Xiang Yu was an enemy of ten thousand people during his lifetime. His martial arts cultivation was so great that he almost turned into a martial immortal. You know, there are monks in this world, but people like him are greatly affected by dragon energy.
Once the fate of the country declines, it will be useless to let his martial arts reach the sky. Although Xiang Yu died, the lingering shadow of Chu's dragon energy made him become a ghost emperor after his death. Moreover, he killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the former Qin and swallowed the dragon of Qin. Qi, the evil dragon energy all over his body was so powerful that even the power of the Han Dynasty could not easily suppress him.
He has always occupied Wujiang and has neither expanded outward nor entered the underworld to recruit people. Logically speaking, a ghost emperor like him will definitely be coveted by the three sects.
Because he is an enemy of thousands of people, and he also possesses dragon aura and strong evil aura. Once he is subdued, he will definitely be a powerful warrior.
However, after Xiang Yu's death, he completely absorbed the remnants of the great Chu state's destiny, and his combat effectiveness was even greater than during his lifetime. Although the three sects could capture him, they would still suffer a lot of damage, which was not worth it.
Therefore, many people have always ignored him, but there are also some people who overestimate their capabilities and want to subdue him, but the fate of those people can be imagined.
By the time of the Yuan Dynasty, the Great Yuan Qi Luck was at its peak and suppressed all dissenters in the world. He was also targeted because of this. At that time, the Yuan Dynasty arranged ten powerful Yuanshen, plus the suppression of the national luck, to beat him to death. destroy.
Unexpectedly, he didn't die. Instead, a trace of his residual thoughts escaped and hid in his riding crop.
Thousands of years have not been able to erase him, he is so powerful!
Although the memory left behind in this remnant was incomplete, Su Ming was still able to deduce the general process based on this information, which also solved the doubts in his heart. No wonder Xiang Yu left no traces and was killed early.
At the same time, another question came to Su Ming's mind: why was Emperor Wu of Wei not destroyed by Dayuan? But in the blink of an eye, he reacted without looking where Emperor Wu of Wei was.
Mangshan!
There are the tombs of countless emperors and generals, and I don’t know how many ancient powers are sleeping there! From the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Qin, Han, Northern and Southern Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Two Jin and Ten Kingdoms, it spanned ten thousand years.
No matter how powerful the Yuan Dynasty was, they would not dare to poke such a hornet's nest! In comparison, although Xiang Yu was difficult to deal with, he was single and weak, so it was much easier to deal with. I am afraid that people in the Yuan Dynasty could not have imagined that Xiang Yu was so ferocious and forcefully forced the monks who besieged him to die before being eliminated. I am afraid that At this time, Xiang Yu already had the combat power of three sect leaders.
But despite this, Xiang Yu still left a trace of his spiritual thoughts in this world.
Thinking of this, Su Ming also understood why the ghost Buddha would collect this riding whip. After all, it was once contaminated with the aura of Buddhism, so it was no wonder.
However, this residual thought is really missing. It has been sealed for thousands of years and cannot be nourished by spiritual energy. Now that it has just been unsealed, it has a tendency to dissipate.
Su Ming quickly input spiritual energy, stabilized his soul body, and sent him into the riding crop. After being nourished by the spiritual energy, this residual thought stabilized and did not collapse.
However, he also knew the name of this riding whip, "Wuzhai Whip."
Su Ming turned it over casually and put the Wuzhui Whip into the storage ring. Unfortunately, the soul thought was too weak to be used as an avatar. If Xiang Yu was about the same back then, a ghost emperor at the level of a master could be used as a clone.
After rummaging through his storage rings, Su Ming could no longer find anything similar to Wu Zui Whip. Such a thing was something that could only be found.
After cleaning up, Su Ming planned to formally deal with this ghost Buddha.
During the battle in the underworld, the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu had to abandon the Red Cliff Beacon Map to escape. The ghost Buddha known as the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" was not so lucky. Not only was he sealed by the inner demon clone, but also the Ksitigarbha inheritance that he cherished so much Also got by the inner demon.
Perhaps it won't be long before the inner demon clone can completely digest the underworld, obtain the status of Ksitigarbha, and master the authority of the underworld. Ksitigarbha's authority is also at the forefront in the underworld, higher than the ten kings of hell and the ghosts of the five directions. Almost like an emperor.
Apart from Chengtian, who followed the example of the Earth Emperor, the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions had the greatest authority. After all, he had once been the leader of Buddhism.
Once he obtains the throne of Ksitigarbha, Su Ming's plan in the underworld will be completely completed. The catastrophe of heaven and earth is approaching. What an advantage it is to have the upper hand. The order of the underworld will be reestablished sooner or later.
Just a few decades of chaos have caused an imbalance of yin and yang in the world. If this chaos continues, there will be fewer and fewer living beings in the world, more and more people will die, but there will be no reincarnation. I am afraid that the world in the yang world will also be invaded by ghosts and monsters. This is worse than the calamity of the end of the Dharma. It’s also terrifying. By then, there will be no living creatures in the world.
At that time, if you want to seize the chance of transcendence, you can only become a ghost.
When he leaves the capital this time, Da Zhou will confront the forces supported by the Demon Sect head-on. Although he doesn’t know the outcome, it may not be that easy to win. According to reports from his spies in various places, the Demon Sect has formed an alliance with the Dragon Clan. , these two formed an alliance. Although they have different intentions and appear to be inseparable, it is very difficult to defeat them.
"We must seize the time as soon as possible." Su Ming suppressed these thoughts and turned to the ghost Buddha in front of him. With a thought in his mind, the appearance of the Tathagata appeared, and the Buddha's aura suddenly illuminated the universe, imbuing everything with Buddhist charm.
Su Ming has practiced the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra to the fourth level, and has gained the true meaning of the Tathagata. His Dharma of the Tathagata has also improved rapidly, and its power is far beyond what it was before.
Ghost Buddha was forced to withdraw from the Ghost Buddha statue in the previous battle, and the Buddha energy in his body was transformed into ghost energy, turning him into a complete ghost. Now what Su Ming has to do is to convert the ghost bone ghost in his body. The qi disappears, leaving only the foundation. Focus on Taoist exercises to build a solid foundation.
In fact, he was prepared to convert all the spiritual cultivation of ghosts and Buddhas into Taoist mana, even if he fell to the realm of spirituality.
But before that, what he has to do is to swallow the soul!
The seal on the ghost Buddha's body was unlocked, and his consciousness also awakened. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the Tathagata's Dharma sitting in front of him. The aura exuding from the Dharma was like a true Buddha coming into the world. It was unfathomable and made him The soul trembled and was horrified.
However, before he could react, he saw the Buddha opening his huge mouth and sucking hard at him. In an instant, a severe sting came, and the soul of the ghost Buddha was forcibly peeled off from his body by Su Ming and swallowed. In the entrance.
As the Buddha statue continued to be chewed, the ghost Buddha let out a scream and was wiped out of its spiritual consciousness. The soul was also controlled by Su Ming and became a clone.
Not long after, Su Ming opened his eyes, which were as dark as a pool of stagnant water. He had just absorbed the memories of Guifu's life. It was not easy for Guifu to reach this point.
This ghost Buddha was a monk during his lifetime, and his cultivation level was only at the level of foundation building. Although his cultivation level was not high, he had a very good understanding of the Dharma, so his attainments in the Dharma were also extremely high. But unfortunately, during a demon slaying When he was a demon, he was stabbed in the back by his companions and had to die together with the ghost. It happened that he was good at body training and his body was preserved.
Unfortunately, there was a crack in the ghost's cave that led to the netherworld. His body fell into the netherworld and slept in the land of the underworld for an unknown length of time. Under the nourishment of the huge yin energy, the corpse became a spirit and became a ghost bone.
The corpse became a spirit, but he was no longer the same person. He was already a ghost. After hundreds of years in the underworld, he entered the realm of the Ghost King (Nascent Soul) and stayed in this realm for five hundred years. After many years, it was not until the end was approaching that he realized the method of ghost Buddha and successfully entered the realm of ghost emperor.
After he became the Ghost Emperor, he discovered that the order of the underworld was in chaos, and the gods disappeared without a trace. It was at this time that he was concerned about the inheritance of Ksitigarbha. After all, he had practiced the methods of ghosts and Buddhas, and he could only rely on ghost cultivation to The Tao can never go any further.
In the netherworld, only Ksitigarbha's inheritance can allow him to pass on the Buddha's teachings and reach heaven in one step.
It's a pity that he has been unable to find the inheritance of Ksitigarbha. It wasn't until he saw the golden body of the demon Buddha in his heart that he became greedy, but the result was that his body died and his Taoism disappeared, and his life's cultivation was all spent. Running water.
Calculating the time, this ghost Buddha has been practicing for much longer than the original Pudu Cihang. The original person has only been practicing for more than nine hundred years, which is still close to the thousand-year catastrophe of the demon clan.
Su Ming let go of the ghost Buddha and returned his soul to his original body. The original body and the clone sat cross-legged and faced each other, forming a magic circle, just like the two rituals of Tai Chi. The ghost energy from the ghost Buddha was continuously extracted and absorbed into Su Ming. It is refined, polished, and then transformed into pure spiritual energy that is passed into the body of ghosts and Buddhas.
The ghost Buddha who became Su Ming's avatar was also constantly running Taoist techniques to refine these magical powers. His aura fell from the Yuan Shen realm to the Qi Condensation realm until all the cultivation in his body was completely exhausted, and then from the Qi Condensation realm again. Start practicing on the first level, then go to foundation building, elixir formation, Nascent Soul...
The clone was originally in the realm of the Yuan Shen, and it was a good start to practice again, making rapid progress. However, the ghost energy in the clone's body was drained out, and a lot of spiritual energy was consumed, so in the end his cultivation level stayed in the middle stage of the Yuanying realm. His progress has stagnated, and his ghosts, Buddhas, paths and fruits have also been transformed.
If you want to build the true foundation of Taoism, you must use the method of Taoism to step into the soul and condense the three pure Tao fruits. Other things will deceive people, but Tao fruits will not. This represents the foundation of a monk. It is impossible for a monk to condense it. The two Dao Fruits are recognized by the world of immortal cultivation.
