"Ah Yi, do you think the leaders of Lifeless Sect and Zhen Kong Sect will come personally? When I was in the grassland, I often heard Ululette talk about the leaders of Lifeless Sect and Zhen Kong Sect. The leaders of these two evil sects are unfathomable. The leader of Lifeless Sect is the Ajati Matriarch, and Zhen Kong Sect is the King of the Vacuum. Although their realms were not high and they had not cultivated to become Ghost Immortals, they had cultivated the Seven Great Charms of the Chariot and were extremely powerful. The strength of each clone was comparable to the Godly Soul Power of a Ghost Immortal! Even a real Ghost Immortal is not a match for them! Even if my grandfather met one of them, he would not be able to win. He could only protect himself! "
It was still a dark night.
However, there were a few stars in the sky, shining down their starlight and illuminating the whole Wu Yuan City. There was a gloomy atmosphere in it.
Hong Yi was wearing a dark golden robe, sitting cross-legged on the roof of a house. He looked up at the starlight above his head, as if he was trying to identify something. The cold night wind blew on his body, causing his dark golden kasaya to rustle.
Below the house, a few dim lanterns were shining. One could vaguely see the cold and damp ground. There were also wooden fences, layers of iron locks, iron chains, and some badges, tiger heads, iron hooks, and other fiendish instruments of torture.
Faint moans and howls could be heard from behind the wooden fences. If a Daoist who knew how to look at Qi looked from above, he would see a lot of Yin Qi and Evil Qi. There seemed to be some indistinct souls and ghost-like things. There was also a foul smell.
Without a doubt, the house below Hong Yi was Wu Yuansheng's prison.
"No wonder when people hear about prison, it is like hearing about a grave. They would rather die than come in. Sigh! In such a cold, damp, and smelly cell, even if a strong person was locked up for a night, he or she would only have one breath left. Especially those who had been locked up until their death, their souls would not go away. They would condense into a gust of Yin Qi, gathering in the dark, damp, and sunless corners. It was the easiest for them to be attracted by the Yang Qi in people's blood. Once they entered it, they would die. If I become the Minister of Justice, the first thing I will do is to clean up all the prisons in the world. I have read the history books. Every time there is a plague, it is most likely to come from the prison. "
Hong Yi sighed and looked at the prison cell below. He knew that the prison cells of the world were not places that humans could stay in.
Not only was there a foul smell, but it was also cold and damp. The prisoners' excrement and urine were not cleaned. No one would clean it. In such an environment, even if a strong person was locked up for a night, it would not be much different from being in a dung pit.
What was even more terrifying was that the souls of those who had been imprisoned to death could remain in a dark, damp, and sunless place without being exposed to the sunlight. If this continued for a long time, they would become Yin Qi like the thoughts of ghosts and immortals. Ordinary people would fall sick when they came into contact with this Yin Qi.
If this continued for a long time, these Yin Qi would become stronger and stronger. If they were not destroyed, they would very likely become harmful ghosts.
Hong Yi had read many novels and notes. He knew that the source of many great plagues in history, which caused thousands of miles of land to be cut off, were all from the prison.
It was not obvious to him before, but now he finally understood.
The prison was similar to a dung pit. Even he was not willing to be locked up in a prison for a night.
Hong Yi decided that if he helped Prince Yu ascend to the throne, the first thing he would do would be to become the Minister of Justice. He would clean up all the prisons in the world and eliminate the source of the plague.
"Ah Yi, we are waiting for the Sect Masters of the Lifeless Dao and the True Void Dao to come. These two sect masters are very powerful. Even my grandfather is afraid of them. How can you still have the leisure to study how to govern the world?"
Arachnida Gigantea sat on Hong Yi's shoulder and swayed her body. Her two bare legs kicked Hong Yi's chest and rubbed against it.
"Alright, Jin Xuner, don't move. If you move again, you will kick me off." Hong Yi grabbed Arachnida Gigantea who was sitting on his shoulder and moving around. "I heard what you said just now. I am also studying the Dao techniques of the Lifeless Dao and the True Void Dao. You said that the Sect Masters of the Lifeless Dao and the True Void Dao have not cultivated to the level of ghost immortals, but their strength is seven or eight times greater than that of ghost immortals, right? "
"Eh? Ah Yi, don't you find it strange? Logically speaking, the Ghost Immortal Realm is the first level of Dao techniques. Those who have cultivated to the Ghost Immortal Realm can be called Perfected Person. They have truly entered the next level, and their strength surpasses other Dao technique experts. If a ghost immortal fights with a Dao technique expert who has not become a ghost immortal, the ghost immortal will definitely win. However, the Sect Masters of the Lifeless Dao and the True Void Dao are not ghost immortals, but they have strength ten times greater than a ghost immortal. No ghost immortal is a match for them, and they can even stand up to a Thunder Retribution expert! I have never seen such people before. Just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy. "
Arachnida Gigantea pouted.
"There's nothing strange about this. The Great Zen Temple's Lifeless Future Scripture is a technique that gathers the faith and belief of countless people to cultivate their own magical powers. Of course, it's powerful. However, this kind of power is external and cannot be integrated into one's body. Therefore, they cultivate this power into external bodies. As for those external bodies, it is inevitable that they are powerful. The Black Devil and the Great God of Destruction in the Xuantian Hall were born from the faith and worship of countless people. How powerful are they? I am afraid that even the Monogatari is not a match for them. "Hong Yi spoke with fervor and assurance. It seemed that he had a great understanding of the Lifeless Future Scripture.
"Ah Yi, you seem to know a lot about this! Tell me about it. I know that you have read a lot of books, and you have read a lot of Dao techniques. Tell me about it. "
Arachnida Gigantea stretched out her chubby little hand and pinched Hong Yi's earlobe.
"These days, I have been trying to refine the Sword of Impermanence that I seized from Nalan Yanluo. However, every time I came into contact with the Divine Talisman of Destruction, I stopped because I vaguely felt that there is indeed a God of Destruction with infinite power hidden in a Minor Chiliocosm in the void. It is like the Minor Chiliocosm in the Cosmos Sack. It is not hidden, but sealed and imprisoned. However, I can't figure out the specifics. Opening a Minor Chiliocosm is something that only the Immortals of the Yang Spirit Realm can do. My Taoist magic is too shallow to figure it out. "
Hong Yi said to Arachnida Gigantea, "However, I have pondered a lot about these Devil Gods born from the burning of incense. I have figured out some of the principles. Jin Xuner, a person's soul is made up of thoughts. There are evil thoughts, good thoughts, unyielding thoughts, and so on and so forth. Among these thoughts, there is one that is the most fervent, the most resolute, and the most powerful. That is the thought of faith. We scholars believe in reason. For the truth in our hearts, we can take the risk of being beheaded to admonish the king. People who practice Buddhism believe in the Dharma. They can cut off their arms to seek the Dharma. People who practice Taoism believe in the Way of Heaven. They can forget any feelings for the Way of Heaven. For example, the Taishang Sect's Great Indifference. Ordinary people believe in the gods and hope that the gods will save them. This kind of fanatical and firm thoughts, when gathered together, will evolve into a real god. The Lifeless Scripture of the Future uses the fanatical beliefs of the world's people to gather together to increase the power of one's soul and break through the limit in one fell swoop! "
"Grandpa said that the two sect masters of the Vacuum Path and the Lifeless Path are not Ghost Immortals. Why is that?" Arachnida Gigantea asked.
"That's because they might be cultivating an incomplete version of the Lifeless Scripture of the Future. They can only borrow the fanatical thoughts of their believers to form an external body. They don't know how to fuse these beliefs into their own souls. It's just like a person with average martial arts skills using godly weapons or ancient magical treasures. Therefore, even though they are strong, they can't break free from it. They can't break through the barrier of life and death. Once their lifespan comes to an end, they will die. They are far inferior to Ghost Immortals who can disintegrate their corpses."
Hong Yi patted Arachnida Gigantea's petite hand, "Alright, Jin Xuner, come down. Our enemy is here. Whoever I say is here, will be here."
Then, Hong Yi stood up and looked into the distance. With a melodious voice, he said, "I wonder if it's the sect master of the Lifeless Path or the sect master of the Vacuum Path. Why is there only one person here?"
Just as Hong Yi's melodious voice rang out, a voice suddenly rang out.
BOOM!
An invisible force descended from the sky and stopped on the other side of the house.
"Hmm? Who would have thought that Wu Yuan's Imperial Inspector Hou Qingchen would actually be able to invite a person like you who knows some logic. Just now, I heard you talking about the idea of burning incense and faith. Everything you said was clear and logical, but there was a bit of jealousy in your tone, like a scholar. Are you waiting for me on the roof? Young man, how dare you. Don't you know who your master is? Didn't he tell you about my reputation? "
On the other side of the house, about a hundred feet in the air, there was an old woman with white hair and wrinkled skin. This old woman was raised like the Longevity Goddess of a rich family, but there was a strange look in her eyes.
Behind this old woman's head, there were seven halos.
These seven halos were very obvious and had different colors. They were exactly the same as the halos behind the heads of the Taoist Masters and Buddhas in the temples!
Such a scene could easily make people think that this old woman was a deity from the heavens who had descended to the world!
Especially when the halos moved, the entire space was filled with an incomparable spiritual and spiritual pressure. This pressure made people feel no different from the deities in the heavens.
Arachnida Gigantea's expression became solemn, because she felt that this old woman's spiritual power was too strong!
"Oh? You must be the Ajati Matriarch of the Lifeless Sect? "
Hong Yi looked at this old woman and his eyes flickered for a while. "You evil woman, you actually came here in your physical body. Aren't you afraid that after I capture you, I will soak you in the dung cellar for three days according to the Da Qian Law?"
Hong Yi could immediately see that this Ajati Matriarch came in her real body. Moreover, the thing that controlled her real body to fly was the seven halos behind her head.
These seven halos had a very strong power. Hong Yi could also see that. Each of the halos was very strong, so strong that it was comparable to a ghost immortal like Yan Zhen Zong!
Moreover, these seven halos protected this old woman's body. No magic could break through. This was because, based on his own intuition, Hong Yi could already feel that the protective power of these seven halos was stronger than Shin Yu-seng's Five Elements Dao and Five Elements Sword Devilry!
However, this old woman's Taoist techniques seemed to be not much stronger than Mr. Zhou and Mr. Duan. She had not broken through the realm of ghost immortals at all.
Moreover, Hong Yi could also see that this old woman's martial arts seemed to have only entered the Innate Realm. She had not even reached the cultivation of a grandmaster.
She was not a ghost immortal, but much stronger than a real ghost immortal! She was so strong that she could easily kill ghost immortals who had not gone through the Thunder Tribulations.
This was originally something that did not exist in the cultivation of Taoist techniques. However, it had indeed appeared in front of Hong Yi.
"The Lifeless Future Scripture is really powerful. These seven halos, each one is probably comparable to a ghost immortal's external body." A thought flashed through Hong Yi's mind.
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha!" When the old woman heard Hong Yi's words, she could not help but laugh. Her teeth were all exposed, but there was a cold, undisguised killing intent in her laughter.
"Young man, you are too arrogant! Originally, when I heard that you could understand the mystery of the burning of incense, I wanted to spare your life and let you be my servant. However, I did not expect that you would anger me. Fine, I will kill you, grind your bones into ashes, and then imprison your soul so that you will never be reincarnated! "
The old woman said in a nonchalant tone.
"Do you think that you can kill me with your cultivation base and the seven divine halos that you've cultivated? Unfortunately, your cultivation level is too low. If your cultivation level was one level higher and you reached the cultivation level of a ghost immortal, you would know that he and I are ghost immortals who have gone through the Thunder Tribulations. How dare you come here to die? Sigh... this man, if his eyes are not open, he will step on an iron nail. "
Hong Yi shook his head. Suddenly, he raised his hand, and a huge Yang wind violently turned into an egg-shaped canopy, surrounding the sky within a radius of several miles!
"Hmm? This is the Illusory Void! Your thoughts are not Yin wind, but Yang Qi. You are indeed a Thunder Tribulations expert! How is this possible? How could a Thunder Tribulations expert appear in a small place like Wu Yuansheng! "
The old woman's expression changed immediately!
Thunder Tribulations Ghost Immortal! That was the real top Taoist technique in the world! He was an expert that even God's lightning couldn't kill! Suddenly, the old woman had encountered two of them. How could she not be shocked!
This was like a rich man going to chase away a beggar in front of his door, only to find that the beggar was actually Wang Ye, the Prime Minister in disguise!
