Chapter 90: Can’t Stay Wei Mubai paused while setting up the formation, “…

Wei Mubai paused in his formation, "What did you say?"

"Huh? I said Yi Qingxue has good luck, what's wrong?" Xu Hui asked back. As for the heroine, it is normal for her to have good luck. When encountering any danger, there will be cannon fodder to help her ward off disaster.

Poor thing, she is a cannon fodder and Wei Mubai is a supporting actor, the best person to block the disaster.

"No!" Wei Mubai frowned and quickly made hand gestures.

Xu Hui didn't understand, "What's wrong? She has always been lucky," otherwise she wouldn't have encountered a new secret realm, and she wouldn't have come to pick up the spoils immediately after they solved the big devil in the Demon Sea Abyss.

She thought it was natural, but seeing Wei Mubai's expression so solemn, she did not disturb him. She ran outside, removed the layers of defense, and brought Lechen over.

"Donor Xu, you forgot that we just killed the Taohun and our luck is at its peak." After hearing her doubts, Lechen immediately realized what was wrong.

Taohun and the Demon Bone Sect have done a lot of bad things over the past thousand years, too numerous to list.

What's more, that fellow Taohun actually tried to deceive the heaven, which is an even greater crime!

Since they destroyed Taohun and the Demon Bone Sect, the Heaven would naturally reward them. Although the concept of luck is difficult to understand and explain, it does exist.

And this is the time when their luck is the strongest. Otherwise, why would Wei Mubai use a small air-drawing formation to protect the Demon Bone Sect's territory after his rebirth, preventing anyone from entering?

It is all caused by strong luck. As time goes by, this luck will gradually fade and be integrated into their destiny line. The impact will not be that great, but will only subtly produce positive feedback on their future destiny.

But now, their luck is still suspended, and they can almost make their wishes come true, at least in destroying the Demon Bone Sect's inheritance.

Because of the Taohun, the Heavenly Dao must be disgusted with the Demon Bone Sect, and their idea is a natural result.

But unfortunately, Yi Qingxue got there first.

This wasn't a big deal. They did good things and gained good fortune. Shouldn't Yi Qingxue be allowed to do the same?

Perhaps, before coming here, she had done some good things and accumulated merits, but it is hard to say.

That’s why Wei Mubai and Lechen had no doubts before!

But the key to the problem is that Yi Qingxue and Fentian not only found the place of inheritance before them, but also diverted the trouble to others, allowing them to help solve the big problem.

This is not right. How could Wei Mubai and Xu Hui become cannon fodder when their luck almost brought Lechen back to life?

So there must be something fishy going on, and the problem is quite serious!

"So that's how it is," Xu Hui suddenly realized.

Because Yi Qingxue was the heroine, she had never thought deeply about the reason why she had such strong luck. After all, she was the heroine, so she must be the chosen one by God, so it was natural for her to have such strong luck.

But perhaps, Yi Qingxue did something to gain more and more luck, which led to her promotion to the heroine.

The cause and effect relationship here may be reversed.

"How?" Seeing Wei Mubai open his eyes and the silver light on his fingertips fade away, Xu Hui asked hurriedly.

"Yi Qingxue and Fentian's luck has suddenly increased in a short period of time, and they have continued to have good luck," Wei Mubai's eyes flashed with a solemn look.

"What do you mean?" Xu Hui didn't understand. Isn't it normal to have good luck when one's luck improves?

"Merit and good fortune will be integrated into the soul and will flow over time, rather than having good luck that lasts for a short period of time and consumes all the good fortune," Wei Mubai explained simply.

Let me put it this way, it is normal to gain merit by doing good deeds, but you will not be lucky every time you do a good deed. If that were the case, the balance of nature would be out of balance.

Therefore, true merits are integrated into the soul, transforming you over the long term, and will not be realized in an instant.

However, Yi Qingxue and Fentian are obviously not like this. Their luck is superficial and is exchanged for them in various forms of benefits, just like instant prize redemption.

This only shows that the luck did not originally belong to them and was plundered.

Because it is not their true merit, it cannot be integrated into the soul.

But luck does exist, so their continuous good luck offsets all the bad luck.

"In other words, they used some method to plunder other people's luck!" Xu Hui concluded, and at the same time, she was shocked. "Isn't this the same as Zhao Hongze?"

"It's different," Wei Mubai shook his head. "Zhao Hongze used forbidden techniques to plunder other people's luck, causing their families to be destroyed and their luck to be mixed with sin and blood. However, Yi Qingxue and Fentian do not have such sinful debts. Although their luck is suspended, it is real and exists. Even if something happens in the future, they will not suffer backlash."

It can be said that the method they used was much more sophisticated than Zhao Hongze's, and it also looked much cleaner. At least the way of heaven recognized it.

"What's the solution?" Xu Hui asked.

Wei Mubai thought for a moment and said, "I once saw a method in an ancient book that could help people accumulate merits. It is said that it has been lost for a long time."

"Yes, the Cihang Pudu Jue was created by a Buddhist monk to protect his beloved disciples," Liaochen confirmed his guess and explained the origin of this technique.

Zen Master Huiming was a great Buddhist monk who traveled thousands of miles to spread Buddhist teachings and accumulated rich merits.

Once, he encountered a demon tribe harming people and stepped forward to help. However, the demon king was no match for him and was seriously injured by him.

At the critical moment, a pregnant woman rushed into the battlefield and stood in front of the demon king.

The Buddhist Dharma hit her, and she was seriously injured and died. The demon king went completely mad, and he hugged the woman and blew himself up, wanting to die with everyone.

However, Zen Master Huiming had profound Buddhist knowledge, which protected himself and most people.

But he found out afterwards that the conflict between the two sides was not entirely the fault of the Demon King. It was just that the Demon King had great magical powers and acted more domineeringly.

That woman was just an ordinary woman. She was not a demon, nor did she have spiritual roots. She was just an ordinary mortal. Yet, she fell in love with the demon king and became pregnant with his child.

The half-demon's bloodline was impure, yet it carried a strong demonic power that the woman could not bear.

In order to save the child, the couple searched everywhere for rare treasures.

Those who were severely injured by him were cultivators who were competing with the Demon King for the same elixir. There was no significant cause and effect between the two sides. It was just a matter of survival of the fittest, and the strong would be respected.

It is normal for Zen Master Huiming to help human monks. After all, the demon king used his power to oppress others and even attacked them severely. It is only natural for him to help his own kind and the weak.

But the bad thing was that the woman broke in and he didn't stop, resulting in two deaths.

The woman and the half-demon in her belly were both innocent, and he had committed a sin of murder.

Zen Master Huiming felt guilty and spent half his life cultivating himself to collect the souls of the mother and son, hoping to help them be reborn.

But when the woman learned that her husband, the demon king, had self-destructed and his soul had been scattered, he had lost the will to live and would rather disappear. However, she could not bear to leave her child, so she asked the Zen master to save her son.

Zen Master Huiming, a great Buddhist monk, also had many ways to help the child be reborn, but he was a half-demon after all, and would not be tolerated by heaven and earth. Even if he was reborn, he would still face many disasters in his life.

Zen Master Huiming couldn't bear it, so he created the "Cihang Pudu Jue", not only passing on the merits of his many years of doing good deeds and promoting Buddhism to the child, but also accumulating merits and fortune in the years to come, and transmitting them all to him through this method.

With the blessing of the technique, the child was born with good fortune. At birth, he could choose to be a human or a demon, and he would not have to suffer the pain of being half-demon.

Following Zen Master Huiming, the child had already been influenced by Buddhism and naturally chose the human race. After rebirth, he became the Zen master's disciple and grew into a little monk.

This young monk inherited the will of Zen Master Huiming, promoted Buddhism throughout his life, saved all living beings, and finally passed away and ascended to heaven.

"The Cihang Pudu Jue is the most orthodox Buddhist practice, it won't be like this," Liaochen concluded after explaining the ins and outs of this practice.

It is an orthodox Buddhist scripture. The accumulated merits can help the little monk to be reborn. How could it be so vague?

Therefore, what Yi Qingxue and Fentian used would definitely not be the "Cihang Pudu Jue"!

"I know," Wei Mubai nodded, "They might be using similar techniques."

It’s just that “Cihang Pudu Jue” is about giving away the merits that one has accumulated to others unconditionally, while they use the opposite effect and absorb the luck of others themselves.

"No! We can't let them succeed!" Liaochen was furious after realizing what was going on.

It would have been fine if "Cihang Pudu Jue" was given voluntarily, but perhaps it was precisely for this reason that no one was willing to give it willingly, so it was lost.

However, there is obviously something wrong with the skills of Yi Qingxue and the others. They can absorb the luck of others, bringing themselves good luck without having to bear the consequences.

If they succeed, the entire cultivation world will suffer!

Just imagine, do those who stand at the top of the pyramid in the world of cultivation want tremendous luck?

For example, for a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, if his merits and luck are deep and thick enough, even if they are suspended around him, he can hide from the world during a thunder tribulation and ascend smoothly.

What’s the difference between that and Taohun?

It’s just that one persecutes people openly and the other does it silently.

Since ancient times, the world of cultivation has been one where the strong are respected and the hierarchy is clear. Strength determines everything, and the strong can possess more cultivation resources and opportunities.

However, they are bound by the laws of cause and effect in heaven, so they dare not abuse their power and wantonly oppress the weak. They want the world to reach a balance where the strong will naturally shine, and the weak will have their own path to follow.

But once that kind of skill that plunders people's luck is leaked, the entire world of cultivation will become purgatory.

The strong will no longer be satisfied with the status quo. Driven by greed and desire, they will treat the weak as prey to be plundered at will, or even as pigs and sheep in captivity, just to cultivate more "nutrients" for themselves to plunder merit and accelerate their cultivation.

At that time, the world of cultivation will fall into chaos and terror.

The weak live in endless fear and despair, with their fate at the mercy of others.

And the strong, after losing the constraints of the law of cause and effect, will eventually lose themselves, fall into endless greed and killing, and ultimately perish.

By then, the rules and laws that maintain the operation of the cultivation world will no longer exist, and this world will eventually become a place abandoned by God.

The world is destroyed!

Do you really think that by ascending to become an immortal, you can completely get rid of the sins you committed in the past?

No, all the three thousand worlds, big, medium and small, are governed by a set of closely related laws.

Those who succeed in ascending to the upper realm by taking advantage of other people's luck will also be struck by lightning. When they reach the upper realm, they will be naked after the tide recedes, and it will be obvious at a glance.

But there are still people who do this, because 80% of Mahayana cultivators cannot survive the thunder tribulation of ascension.

The difficulties we may face in the future are nothing compared to the death that lies ahead.

This is not even a question of virtue, but an inevitable choice for survival.

Therefore, that technique must be destroyed!
