Chapter 401: The Lord of Desire, the Evil Aura Rising on Mount Longhu, the Limit-Breaking Ceremony, the Demon Lord’s Handwritten Book “Devouring the Heavenly Demon Spirit”

Same starry night, different people.

At the banquet, all the cultivators from Mount Longhu were smiling happily, and their cheerful laughter echoed throughout the entire venue.

But happiness belongs to others. Zhang Long raised his glass with a stiff expression, like a walking corpse. He only felt that they were noisy.

Especially the few who had some grievances with him in the past, kept scanning Zhang Ronger and him with their thieving eyes, finally stopping on Zhang Ronger, whispering, as if commenting on something.

Even though a few of his good friends saw that he looked lonely and ran over to clink glasses with him, he felt that there was a strong sense of ridicule in their eyes.

Zhang Long had a blank expression on his face. Except when everyone was toasting, he just sat at the table without saying a word.

Time was so unbearable, every minute and every second was like torture. Everyone's sight was like a steel whip, lashing Zhang Longyi's heart fiercely, splashing blood.

He was in a daze and finally made it until late at night. When the cultivators dispersed, Zhang Long stood up numbly and walked in the opposite direction of the crowd.

It doesn't matter where you go, as long as there are few people.

Night, quiet.

The bleak autumn wind suddenly rose, just like his mood at the moment.

As proud as he was in the past, he is as miserable now.

Walking in the cold autumn wind, the exquisite magic boots stepped on the yellow weeds and fallen leaves, and the air gaps were compressed, making dull creaking and breaking sounds.

From time to time, a few yellow leaves fell from the treetops above his head and landed on Zhang Longyi's head.

Those things that were drifting away and being crushed were all dreams, the beautiful dreams that Zhang Long had when he was in high spirits!

Looking up at the cold moonlight shining through the treetops, Zhang Long suddenly felt dizzy and countless noisy sounds seemed to pour into his ears.

"Look, he looks like a lost dog now!"

"Hey, fellow Daoist, be careful with your words. Zhang Longyi is the pride of our Tianxuan Peak. Besides, how can a dog who can stay in our Tianxuan Peak be so miserable?"

——

"I heard that the fellow cultivators in the Dragon and Tiger Mountains of the Demon Realm spread the news that the reason why Zhang Ronger was having an affair with her senior brother was because this Tianjiao from our Tianxuan Peak was actually a 'toothpick'. It is said that he also likes to brag when he does things. He is very arrogant. You have to bear with it."

"Ah? Senior Brother, what does toothpick mean?"

"Haha, Junior Brother, you don't know. This is a new and strange term that has become popular down the mountain recently. A toothpick is short and thin, mostly made of bamboo. People outside the country often use it to stir water tanks."

"Pfft, haha, I've got it. It's no wonder Fairy Rong'er is like that. Regardless of Brother Zhang Menqing's character, I've also appreciated the 72 pieces of jade with images imprinted at different angles. Brother Zhang is indeed very wealthy and gifted."

"Junior brother, you are wrong. Your image jade is incomplete. I have more than ninety pieces in my cave. Why don't you make a copy to play with in your spare time? I have to say that Senior Brother Zhang Longyi's Taoist partner is really good."

——

"I, Zhang Longyi, swear on my integrity now that my wife is pure and virtuous, and my senior brother Zhang Menqing is upright and incorruptible, and does not like women..."

——

“Ah! Ah! Ah!”

Just as Zhang Long felt dizzy, roared, and fell to the ground with disheveled hair, suddenly a strange laugh broke into his mind.

"Zhang Longyi, do you desire power? Sell your soul to me and become my slave. I will give you power that you will never get in your lifetime."

"A filthy and despicable soul like you is outstanding even in the underworld, and is qualified to be an apostle of my Lord of Desire."

"As long as you can give me strength, I'm willing to do anything." Without any hesitation, Zhang Longyi replied firmly in his heart.

"Haha, in that case, I will give you a seed of lust. If you can complete the task tonight, I will accept you as my apostle."

An illusory black 'meat seed' fell from the sky and disappeared between the young Taoist's eyebrows. Suddenly, Zhang Long felt a powerful force surging in his body.

"This...this power is real."

"Haha! Since God doesn't favor me, my father no longer loves me, others don't think highly of me, my Taoist partner betrayed me, and my master ignored me."

"I have to love myself more, be more optimistic about myself, be more adventurous and more radical. Only in this way can I, Zhang Longyi, achieve something!"

"Those who owe me, betray me, look down on me, and laugh at me, I, Zhang Long, will definitely make you pay with blood, especially you, Yichengzi."

"Haha, you all just wait!"

——

"Haha, you all just wait for me~"

At this moment, Zhang Long was suddenly awakened by a doubtful voice.

"Brother Long Yi, you suddenly laughed out loud and said that you all should wait for me. What does that mean?" A Taoist with a kind face looked at Zhang Long Yi who suddenly laughed out loud, and asked puzzledly. Just as the words came out of his mouth, he seemed to think of something, and a hint of pity flashed in his eyes.

"Forget it, Senior Brother Long Yi, the banquet is over, and we are still not satisfied. We were thinking of having a small gathering. I don't know if you are interested, so I didn't invite you. How about you come over and have a drink with us?"

"Ah...ah?" Zhang Longyi came back to his senses at this moment, looking at the people around him who were looking at him with puzzled eyes. For a moment, he felt like a duck with its neck strangled.

For some reason, he was not in the wild forest at this moment, but at the exit square where the banquet was over.

The monks who were on good terms with each other were gathered in groups of three or four, discussing something.

The so-called Lord of Desire is just... No! This is real!

Zhang Long calmed down and suddenly found that a black "meat seed" was floating in his sea of ​​consciousness. Countless black lines were corroding his body like an octopus, emitting an evil aura.

An adventure, a real adventure!

Zhang Long looked around but found nothing. Even the Taoist masters who had not left nearby did not notice his abnormality. For a moment, he felt more in awe and admiration for the mysterious Lord of Desire.

His expression changed, and he forced himself to calm down, and said as calmly as possible: "Junior Brother Ming Zhenzi, thank you for your kindness. I have something important to do today, so I won't accompany you."

After saying that, Zhang Longyi immediately turned away, with a hint of strong resentment flashing across his eyes.

He saw clearly the look of pity on Ming Zhenzi's face when she invited him before.

He, Zhang Longyi, had actually fallen to the point where he had to endure the pity of a tiny Ming Zhenzi. Did they deserve it?

"Brother Zhang Longyi was stimulated by this, and he probably has some mental problems. It's really pitiful."

"Forget it, forget it. He still thinks he is the proud son of Tianxuan Peak. Junior Brother Qi Longhu is extremely talented, his cultivation is improving rapidly, and he is very approachable. He is not as arrogant as Senior Brother Long Yi. Why don't we go find Junior Brother Qi Longhu and have a few more drinks together?"

A thin Taoist priest suddenly made a suggestion. Several people looked at each other, and they all understood what the other person meant. They all smiled knowingly and said yes.

With Junior Brother Qi Longhu's character and talent, as long as the relationship is good, the benefits in the future can't be small? At a corner in the distance, Zhang Long, who was parasitized by the strange "Seed of Desire", paused. He could hear everything that was going on in the distance, and it was very magical.

After secretly noting down the identities of these people, a creepy smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Longyi's face.

late at night.

Sensing the faint evil thoughts emanating from the seed of desire, Zhang Long's face was uncertain for a moment.

After some struggle, he finally made up his mind secretly.

"Dad, you betrayed me first. This is all your fault. Don't blame me!"

"In order to avenge Yi Chengzi, I am willing to pay any price. It is you who forced me to this point."

A ball of black gas suddenly enveloped Zhang Longyi's whole body, emitting strange fluctuations. He came to an exquisite mansion like a ghost.

"Aunt, open the door. I am my father."

As the seed of lust in the body trembled, the door of the room suddenly opened, revealing the dull face of a plump woman.

With a creak, the door suddenly closed with a creaking sound.

…. …. “Haha, interesting, interesting!”

"Zhang Jishi, ah Zhang Jishi, you said that my City of Desire is a place of filth and evil, and you wanted to kill me. Unfortunately, you are still one step behind. You didn't expect the exquisiteness of my Soul Transfer Technique."

"Hehe, this is the secret method that I have painstakingly studied for countless years to find out in order to escape from the predicament. I need a powerful idiot to replace me and help me escape from the shackles of the City of Desire."

"I will give you the City of Desire. Your physical body as the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master, and this huge Dragon and Tiger Mountain, will be my paradise."

In Tianxuan Peak, in an elegant room, a silver-haired Taoist with a kind face was sitting cross-legged. The flickering candlelight in the room cast a huge twisted evil shadow on the wall.

At this moment, in the underworld, it is the same day in March.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Unknown how many miles away from the Rakshasa Kingdom, fog was swirling inside a majestic and strange giant city.

A tentacle demon as black as ink actually drove a sacred golden thunder and soared into the sky.

Just when he was about to leave this magnificent city, countless black gas columns suddenly rose up from the huge black city, connected with the body of the "Tentacle Demon", and actually pulled him back.

"How dare you, you bastard, to slander me? I'm going to fuck my young mother!"

The elegant words and remarks immediately resounded throughout the majestic city.

After another unsuccessful attempt, the giant tentacle-like evil monster that looked like an octopus returned to a huge black iron throne that was over a hundred meters high.

His countless huge tentacles are covered with densely packed suction cups and eyeballs. The eyes on the tentacles are clearly black and white, and the whites of the eyes are very clean, without any bloodshot or yellow spots.

His eyes were crystal clear, as pure as a pool of autumn water.

The 'Tentacle Demon' has a very calm and peaceful demeanor, and a very gentle aura, as if it has merged with the world.

Beneath his black iron throne, countless alienated monsters were trembling, including two-faced men, windlass heads, horses with ox heads, oxen with horse heads, snake bodies with human faces, sheep with green hair, and many other strange monsters.

The eyes of the 'Tentacle Demon' rolled around and swept under the Black Iron Throne in unison, looking at the group of cow-horse monsters below. For a moment, the many eyeballs on its tentacles clearly conveyed a 'painful' emotion.

"From today on, everyone in the City of Desire must do morning prayers and recite Taoist scriptures. Those who refuse to obey will be killed!"

"By the way, you still have to abstain from sex. I feel sick watching you guys mating!"

Amidst the strange looks of many people as if they had seen a ghost, suddenly a loud and majestic voice swept across the city.

After a long silence, the sounds of ghosts howling and wolves howling arose, and soon the monsters that screamed the loudest were blown to pieces by the golden thunder that fell from the sky.

The old Heavenly Master is very angry now! …. …. Wu Ding Shen Zong.

There was a huge underground river with turbulent waves.

Taking the central axis of the river as the boundary, this underground river is half in light and half in darkness.

The river water is surging.

A burly middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back by the dark river, as if waiting for something. Not long after, a black coffin suddenly floated upstream in the dark river, stirring up waves, and soon the black coffin came in front of the middle-aged man.

"Ancestor, do you have something to talk to me about?" Tu Lingjun, the current leader of Wuding Divine Sect, who loves to bet with others on their Taoist companions, said in a muffled voice.

"Lingjun, two things."

"First, the Yuling Shenggui Sect's sinking tide has secretly broken through the limit and has already walked ahead of you. Now that the Yuling Shenggui Sect has become a major force, you must work harder."

A sound like the friction of rough iron sheets came from the black coffin.

"Ah? This... How is this possible!?"

"Shut up, you are so ignorant and look down on all the heroes in the world, how is this impossible?" The man in the black coffin cursed with some regret, and then spoke again.

"The second thing is that Qin Emperor Ying Si sent me a message that the Great Qin will soon appoint a national teacher named Yi Chengzi. This person is an anomaly with a mysterious origin. I have searched through ancient books but cannot find his origin. However, this person will never give up even the slightest grudge. The ancestor admires his style of doing things. He is very much like a person of my demonic way."

"You have suppressed the Yuling Shenggui Sect for many years, but you have been defeated by Chen Haichao one after another. This Taoist Master Yi is a top-notch choice in both his methods and character. He happens to have a life-and-death feud with Chen Haichao, so it's a good idea to make friends with him."

"Grandmaster, what you mean is..."

"Doesn't he like to collect powerful martial arts that are derived from top-notch scriptures? My Wuding Divine Sect's ancestor was the Demon Lord's disciple. When the Demon Lord was sorting out his own path, he casually created a top-notch martial art, 'Demon Spirit Swallowing the Sky'."

"This is a powerful martial art that was born from the One and Only Demonic Scripture. Give him the golden volume of 'Demon Spirit of Devouring Heaven' and the Demon Lord's handwritten divine intention as a gift."

"I think this will definitely allow Yi Chengzi to feel the kindness of our Wuding Divine Sect."

“Hehe, very few people know the background of our Wudingshen Sect’s founder, and even fewer know that the “Devouring Heavenly Demonic Spirit” that the former Demon Lord discarded as waste paper was secretly preserved by our sect’s founder.”

The coffin board opened a crack, and a golden book and scroll floated out from the gap and landed lightly in Tu Lingjun's hands.

"Ancestor...you just gave this divine object to Yichengzi? I didn't even know that our sect has this miraculous skill. Something written by the Demon Lord must be extraordinary. Why don't we let our disciples practice it?" Tu Lingjun's eyes moved, and a look of reluctance appeared on his face.

"Lingjun, do you think the ancestor is a fool? This technique has been studied by me and my ancestors, and we finally came to the conclusion that it is useless. Practicing the Heaven Devouring Demon Spirit will lead to death. Every small step forward will bring disaster.

Even with your current physique, Lingjun, you still have to be extremely careful when you reach a high level of training."

"The sect has secretly captured people with outstanding talents to practice this method before, but they exploded and died after only practicing to the second level. An elder in the True Lord Realm refused to believe in evil and persisted until the fourth level before dying..."

"I guess this is also the reason why the Demon Lord discarded it like a worn-out shoe. It is impossible for anyone to successfully practice this kind of technique. If it is spread out, it will only damage the reputation of the Demon Lord."

"A useless but valuable martial arts manual is perfect as a gift. The sect only has so much wealth, and we can't really give those treasures away."

"Grandmaster, that's brilliant!" Tu Lingjun was delighted upon hearing this, and immediately raised his thumb and said, "The writing of the Demon Lord is so precious. If Yichengzi can't learn the principles behind it, then we can't blame him."

"We even took out the Demon Lord's handwritten letter, showing our sincerity."

"What are you talking about? Lingjun, be careful with your words. Perhaps Taoist Master Yi can get some inspiration from this technique and compile the martial arts classic that he said is amazing and can be practiced by everyone."

"This is the coffin book of our Wuding Divine Sect. We can't belittle ourselves."

A burst of chuckles suddenly came from the black coffin, and then the voice was filled with a hint of regret and sadness.

"From Yichengzi's behavior, I can sense his suppressed devilish nature. It's a pity that such a talented person has entered the Taoist sect. It's really a waste of talent."

"If this person joins my Wuding Divine Sect, he will surely shine!"

"Forget it. There is no point in saying more. The opportunity for the ancestor to break the limit for the second time is approaching. I am leaving now."

Before he finished speaking, the coffin boards were suddenly closed, and the black coffin instantly disappeared in the waves of the dark river.

…. …. "Master Yi, Sea Dragon City is not far ahead."

"I have already used the secret treasure to inform the Emperor in advance that you are willing to join my Great Qin and become my Great Qin's national teacher. I think the Emperor is already preparing for the Taoist's coronation ceremony and the limit-breaking ceremony."

In the distant green hills, a purple-haired girl was smiling at Yi Chen.
