Chapter 139: Saving Souls



Here's the thing.

That day, when Xu Sheng was having dinner at a restaurant in the city, he heard a few diners nearby talking about the country and the past while eating and drinking.

It seems like there is nothing they don't know.

They also talked about the founding emperor Xu Longsheng and the imperial teacher Yun Ling.

Then he went on to say that cultivating immortals was simply a delusion!

Look at how powerful the national teacher Yun Ling was back then?

Hasn't it disappeared without a trace now? Decayed over the years?

The so-called immortality does not exist at all!

Xu Sheng had no intention of refutation of such remarks.

It is normal for ordinary people to have such discussions.

Xu Sheng also felt a little complicated about becoming what others called a historical figure.

He had never imagined that he would have such an experience before traveling through time.

However, he did not expect that at this moment, a young man at another table suddenly slammed the table and retorted that it was the national master Yun Ling who had not decayed in the long river of time.

It is said that the National Master is a real living fairy!

It is said that the Imperial Master has already transcended the mundane world!

You guys know shit!

He said that he had seen the divine appearance of the Imperial Master with his own eyes a few days ago!

It is said that after so many years, the Imperial Master is still as young as a young girl, with fair skin and beautiful looks, absolutely stunning!

The boy spoke with conviction and had a red face and thick neck, just like a star-chasing boy on Earth who was arguing with the haters for his favorite female idol!

Xu Sheng turned to look at the young man in astonishment.

Others were still doubting whether what the young man said was true or not, but Xu Sheng had seen with his own eyes that the "Master of the State" was still alive.

"Could it be that this young man really had seen the little nun a few days ago?" Xu Sheng couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

At this time, the diners around were pointed at and scolded by the young man, and they were very unconvinced and said that the young man was bragging!

Even if the Imperial Master were still alive, how could you possibly see him?

Tell me what evidence you have?

The young man continued to refute that he was a member of the Zhenbei Palace, his grandfather and his father both worked in the Zhenbei Palace, so he was able to work in the Zhenbei Palace.

And he saw with his own eyes that the National Master Yun Ling appeared in the Zhenbei Palace a few days ago!

The young man's words shocked everyone.

Of course, National Master Yun Ling lived more than two hundred years ago.

The diners present still found it unbelievable.

Many people still questioned that the young man was talking nonsense.

The young fan of Yun Ling wanted to continue to refute, but at this time a middle-aged man who was traveling with him came back.

The latter scolded the former in a low voice.

The former may also realize that they shouldn't say these words.

After he shut up, he was taken away by the middle-aged man and others.

Xu Sheng also went downstairs and followed them quietly.

At night, Xu Sheng changed his clothes and sneaked into the boy's room and interrogated him with a knife.

Later, Xu Sheng learned the general situation of the matter.

According to what the young man said, the eldest daughter of the Zhenbei Palace was suffering from a strange disease, and many doctors said it was incurable after examining her.

At this time, the stunningly beautiful and fairy-like national teacher 'Yun Ling' appeared wearing the same Taoist robe as she did more than two hundred years ago.

The young servant was immediately impressed by the grace and elegance of Fairy Yun Ling.

I almost drooled.

But he was just a family slave, so naturally he didn't dare to have any delusions.

Then the national teacher Yun Ling said that the young lady of the palace was haunted by a demon, and then used his magic power to directly capture the female ghost who was entangled with the daughter of the Zhenbei King.

Moreover, 'Yun Ling' also showed the token that Xu Longsheng, the founding emperor of Daxu, bestowed on the 'national teacher'.

Seeing this, Prince Zhenbei knelt down directly.

After understanding the situation, Xu Sheng knocked the boy unconscious and left.

The little nun actually acted alone and appeared in the Zhenbei Palace? What was she trying to do?

Xu Sheng couldn't help but think at this time.

Could it be that this fake Bodhisattva Guanyin wants to use the King of Zhenbei to do something?

But this fake Bodhisattva Guanyin couldn't show up himself, so he arranged this?

First, let the most beloved daughter of Zhenbei Palace be haunted by evil spirits.

Then let Yun Ling, who is the national teacher, come forward?

After witnessing Yun Ling's magical powers, he also saw the token that Xu Longsheng bestowed on the national teacher.

If some requests are made within one's ability at this time, Prince Zhenbei will naturally choose to obey.

"It seems that we have to go to the Zhenbei Palace."

Xu Sheng immediately said in his heart.

At this time, Xu Sheng was located in the northern part of the Daxu territory, only a day or two away from the Zhenbei Palace.

The fan boy had come to this city to purchase supplies for the Zhenbei Palace.

In short, after learning about this situation.

Xu Sheng used his internal energy from martial arts to run wildly.

A few hours later, Xu Sheng arrived outside the Zhenbei Palace.

However, at this time, both the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva and the little Taoist nun Yun Ling were gone.

Of course they couldn't just stay there and wait for Xu Sheng to come.

This was also within Xu Sheng's expectations.

That fake Bodhisattva Guanyin's whereabouts are always elusive!

Xu Sheng felt that there must be a reason for this.

Maybe she was also hiding from the terrifying existence that had ascended? So she didn't dare to reveal her whereabouts? That's why she has become such a mysterious figure that can only be seen from the head but not the tail?

Of course, there are no answers to these speculations for the time being.

Afterwards, Xu Sheng wandered around the Zhenbei Palace to gather information.

Fifteen days later, Xu Sheng finally found out some information.

He discovered that after Yun Ling left, people in the Zhenbei Palace began searching for something that looked like a small tripod.

The Zhenbei Palace has the largest antique industry across the country.

Therefore, it is understandable that they would choose to use the help of King Zhenbei to investigate.

Of course Xu Sheng also got the picture of the tripod.

"Could this thing be a magical weapon?"

Xu Sheng looked at the picture in his hand and pondered: "This magic weapon has spread to the people? And there is no way to sense and find it with magic power? Can only use primitive methods to search? So this fake Guanyin Bodhisattva sent 'Yun Ling' to perform such a show?"

As he thought about it, Xu Sheng slapped his hand on the table: "This may be a chance for me!"

Then Xu Sheng took action.

He first disguised himself and found a famous counterfeiter, and paid him money to make him a few fake small tripods that were exactly the same as the ones in the picture.

Then Xu Sheng contacted the people in Zhenbei Palace who were looking for this small tripod.

But I didn't go directly to them to sell this small tripod.

After all, many people must have known that the Zhenbei Palace was looking for this thing.

I guess there are some daring people who want to make counterfeits to cheat people out of money.

What Xu Sheng has in his hand now is also fake, so if he sells it directly, it will definitely be seen through.

Therefore, Xu Sheng simply appeared in front of them, and then accidentally revealed in his conversation that he was a hermit Taoist priest practicing in the mountains somewhere.

He said that he had the small tripod they were looking for, which he had obtained by accident before.

But he has no intention of selling it at all, he just wants to reveal that he has it!

It wasn't long before people from the Zhenbei Palace wanted to buy it.

But Xu Sheng naturally said that he would not sell it no matter how much money was offered.

Then he went straight into the mountains.

The troops from the Zhenbei Palace wanted to intercept and rob.

But Xu Sheng had disappeared directly into the mountains.

"The bait has been put down. Now it all depends on whether the fish will bite the hook." Xu Sheng thought to himself as he watched the people from Zhenbei Palace unable to find his departing figure.

After that, Xu Sheng just waited patiently.

Xu Sheng didn't have to wait too long.

Just three days later.

Xu Sheng saw Yun Ling's figure appear in the mountain.

"Fairy!"

Xu Sheng was also a little excited and said to himself: "I didn't expect that it would actually come here."

In this way, he might be able to rescue the little nun first.

And he doesn't have to wait until the day when he is strong enough to kill the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva to rescue her.

After all, Xu Sheng’s Yang God Soul now has reached thirty-six.

His magic power is relatively strong.

He is no match for the powerful existence like the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva.

But facing most of the ordinary monks in this world, they are completely crushed.

However, Xu Sheng still did not show up casually at this time.

Because he didn't know whether the fake Bodhisattva Guanyin came with 'Yun Ling'.

Therefore, Xu Sheng just hid himself and observed silently.

At this time, 'Yun Ling' was searching everywhere in the mountain for the Taoist priest played by Xu Sheng before.

Three full days passed.

Xu Sheng didn't show up.

Afterwards, Xu Sheng saw a figure in white descending from the white clouds.

It turned out to be that fake Guanyin Bodhisattva!

"She actually followed me."

Seeing this, Xu Sheng couldn't help but said in awe: "It's just hiding in the dark!"

If he hadn't been careful and showed up earlier, he would have been captured on the spot by this fake Guanyin Bodhisattva.

After that, Xu Sheng of course continued to keep his troops in place.

The fake Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara and 'Yun Ling' searched the mountain again.

But Xu Sheng’s concealment methods are naturally still very good.

It is especially difficult to detect him when he is not taking any action at all.

Finally, Bodhisattva Guanyin and Yunling both left in disappointment after a few days.

Xu Sheng did not pursue this.

He is not in a hurry.

Since this fake Bodhisattva Guanyin was willing to come in person and spent a lot of time searching here, it means that this small tripod should be a very important treasure.

After they leave.

Xu Sheng stayed in the mountains for a few more days before leaving.

He appeared as the Taoist priest he had played before, letting people know that this Taoist priest really existed, but no one had found him before.

Then Xu Sheng fled into the mountains again before the King of Zhenbei's men arrived.

Then he waited silently in the mountains.

Sure enough, a few days later.

The figure of 'Yun Ling' appeared in the mountain again.

She continued searching.

He even shouted:

说愿意拿出宝物来交换这个法器。

说这个小鼎是自己的祖上留下来的,很有纪念意义,所以想要收回而已。

说请道友成全。

对此许升当然不会相信。

他早就知道小道姑祖上根本没有什么修行之人。

不过听着这些话,许升倒是更加确定了这个小鼎是蛮重要的宝物。

只可惜真正的小鼎也不在许升的手里。

如此操作几次。

许升又这么苟了一些天。

终于在某一天,许升觉得那假观音大士应该是没有跟着来了。

“想要这法器!”

他才以纯阳之魂钻入飞剑,操作飞剑现身出去,从中震**出声音道:“就跟我来。”

又以飞剑狂飞。

而身后的‘云灵’也是在飞剑之后速追。

绕了一段时间后,发现假观音大士还是没出现。

许升这才放了心。

看来她应该是在做其他的事情。

而‘云灵’的速度也很快。

此时她已经追上了许升的飞剑且施展出法力将许升的飞剑禁锢在了空中。

当然此时许升也戴着面具出现了。

一出现他就施展五把飞剑蜂拥杀了过去,剑影呼啸间便把自己被禁锢的飞剑给解救了出来。

与此同时许升的其他十二把飞剑已经悄悄地潜伏在周围的草丛间,一点点慢慢慢地朝着对面的‘云灵’靠近了过去。

不过由于怕被她察觉到,所以移动的速度非常慢。

剩下的六把飞剑则是隐藏在自己所处的周围的草丛里以留着来护卫自己。

“就是你想要买我的法器?”

这时候许升则悠然瞥向‘云灵’道:“你拿什么来跟我换?”

“你是一个剑修。我这里有一本飞剑剑阵之术。还有十把上品飞剑。”

‘云灵’拿出来玉简跟飞剑说道:“我拿这些东西跟你换怎么样?”

许升眼睛一亮。

但还是犹豫。

“不过,等等,你,你,你怎么长得这么……?”

接着他又立即装出刚认出来云灵的样子说道:“我看过你的画像!你难道是开国大帝许龙升当年身边的那个国师云灵不成?”

“你认得我?”

闻言‘云灵’微微一笑,点头叹道:“没错,我是云灵。只不过,那已经是两百多年前我俗世中的身份了。”

许升仍旧心中保持怀疑态度。

因为他总感觉现在的‘云灵’讲话的时候的语调与当年的云灵稍微有点不一样。

他必须要试探一下‘云灵’才行。

只有确定了‘云灵’是不是当初的小道姑。

一会儿出手的时候才能决定是不是要下狠手。

另外也要说点话拖延一下时间才能让自己的飞剑无声无息地靠近她。

之后才能取得最有利的出击效果。

“没想到竟然是国师云灵大人当面。”

于是许升又说道:“传说中,国师大人冰雪聪明,灵慧绝顶,乃是开国大帝许龙升的左膀右臂。其实我一直有一些问题想要请教国师大人。这样吧,国师大人,若你愿意回答这些问题,我就答应跟你交易,你觉得如何?不然今日就作罢。”

“什么问题?”

闻言‘云灵’一愣,随后也笑道:“好,那你问吧。”

“好。”

许升也点头说道:“那你听好了。——山上有三只狼,猎人用枪打死一只,还剩下多少只?”

“什么?你这是什么问题?”

‘云灵’诧异,她还以为许升要问一些修行上的问题,当然她随后也思考了一下便回答道:“两只!”

“错。”

但许升立即道:“一只。知道为什么吗?”

“为什么?”

‘云灵’不解道:“三减一,难道不是二吗?”

“因为有一只被打死了。”

许升道:“另外两只当然是吓得跑掉了。它们又不是傻子,只有傻子才会认为它们还会待在原地等着被杀。”

“……”‘云灵’无言。

“我再给你一个机会。”

而此时许升已经再次开口道:“你听好了,问题是:你的父亲的哥哥的堂妹的表妹的母亲与你叔叔的儿子的父亲的儿子的嫂子的奶奶的妹妹的孙子的哥哥是什么关系?”

“???”‘云灵’傻眼。

“笨!”而许升道:“当然是亲戚关系啊!”

“……”‘云灵’无言。

“我再问你!”

而许升又说道:“一位高僧与一位屠夫同时去世,为什么最后是屠夫比高僧先成佛?”

“???”‘云灵’努力思考。

“笨!”许升已经道:“因为——放下屠刀立地成佛!身为修佛之人,你连这句话都没听过?你这佛门弟子,不及格啊你。”

“???”‘云灵’满脸无语。

当然随后她立即眼神一冷道:“戏耍我,很好玩吗?”

“死!”

说着她直接出手了。

显然她早就已经意识到被许升给耍了。

但她刚才也只不过是在虚以逶迤以给自己的攻击创造时间而已。

“轰!轰!轰!轰!轰!轰!!”

顷刻间,在许升的周身一个个佛印突然凭空出现,高速地旋转着凶猛地疯狂地杀向许升。

“飞剑,档!”

当然此时许升也立即眼皮一掀。

“嗡!嗡!嗡!嗡!嗡!嗡!!”

瞬间六把藏在周身的飞剑顿时出现,阻挡住了杀来的一个个佛印!

其实刚才问了第二个问题之后,许升就已经完全确定此时的小道姑的身体里根本就不是原来的她的意识在主宰了。

因为这些脑筋急转弯以前许升跟小道姑相处时曾经拿来跟她开过玩笑。

忘记一个可以接受。

忘记两个不至于。

忘记三个就更不可能!

所以原来的小道姑到底还活着吗?

刚才许升虽然表面上在嬉笑,可心中却是非常的难受与沉重。

“砰砰砰砰砰砰!!”

佛印与飞剑碰撞发出一声声闷响。

“杀!”

接着许升的手印一变以加强心神与飞剑的联系,瞬间刚才悄悄潜伏到‘云灵’身边的一十三把飞剑齐刷刷腾空而起,呼啸着蜂拥杀向‘云灵’。

“不好!”

此时‘云灵’也是脸色一变,她身躯一晃,周身佛光**漾涟漪,一条条手臂的虚影出现在她的身上,好像是被千手观音附了身。

“轰轰轰轰轰轰……!”

将许升的十三把飞剑的攻势都连连挡住。

“怎么可能?你的法力居然如此强?”

此时面前的‘云灵’很是吃惊,她阻挡飞剑的同时脚下连踩想跑路。

因为这个世界的修行界里,玄真这样的十六个纯阳之魂的道行的都已经算是强者了。

‘云灵’毕竟只是假观音大士的跟班。

假观音大士根本没有给她太多的力量。

“大饕餮术!”

而此时许升又心中狂吼。

他将半步武圣的内劲修为全部激发出来。

飞剑呼啸攻击的同时身躯猛然前冲上去接近了‘云灵’。

拳头带着半步武圣的内劲打向前方,突破‘云灵’的一些法力防御的同时!

手掌一张!

得自张道灵的那一门恐怖如魔功般的功法已然运转了起来。

剩下的十二个的纯阳之魂的法力顷刻在识海之中汇聚在一起观想成了一只饕餮的形态!

上古凶兽饕餮的身影出现!

其张开血盆大口,嘴巴里宛如含着一个个黑洞,其中好似能够吞噬天下万物!

识海里的气氛都瞬间大变!

而在识海之外!

一只饕餮的虚影也瞬间出现在许升身上。

而许升手所触及之处,顿时散发出来一种神秘而可怕的吸力,宛如饕餮张开的血盆巨口瞬息之间就不断地将这个面前的‘云灵’的法力给不断地吞吸过来。

这‘云灵’应该也是假观音大士的一个供食者!

因为其身上的法力都是很精纯的。

并不是驳杂的。

正是大饕餮术最好的食物!

“你这是什么功法?”

此时面前的‘云灵’也是再次脸色大变,惊恐非常地说道:“你竟也是魔修??!!”

此时许升的二十四把飞剑仍旧在疯狂地攻击着她。

她根本就难以一边应付飞剑还一边抵抗大饕餮术这门恐怖的功法的吸食。

毕竟她根本就不是‘拥有七七四十九个阳神之魂的法力’的真正的小道姑!

所以此时她根本就不是现在拥有足足三十六个纯阳之魂加大饕餮术的许升的对手。

虽然‘云灵’仍旧在拼命抵挡。

可是没有什么用,很快她就挡不住了。

法力被许升越吸越弱!

许升吸了一会儿后,飞剑就已经停止攻击了。

毕竟许升不想伤害小道姑的身体。

当然二十四把飞剑仍旧悬浮在‘云灵’的周身!

防备着她继续爆发出意外的反击!

不过最后并没有发生其他的意外。

这‘云灵’的法力被许升的大饕餮术直接给全部都吸干了!

足足二十个陌生女子的面容的神魂被吸入许升的识海,又被其中的狰狞的饕餮全部吞了下去。

接着许升外面的飞剑全部归鞘。

之后一个个纯阳之魂回归识海!

当然此时小道姑的身体已经变得软了下来。

因为其失去了意识!

In order to prevent the little nun's body from dying, Xu Sheng flew out one of his pure yang souls and entered the little nun's body, temporarily dominating the little nun's body to prevent her from dying.

At the same time, Xu Sheng's other pure yang souls returned to his sea of ​​consciousness.

One by one, they gathered into the soul origin of the Taotie's body.

Suddenly, the body of this glutton became several times larger!

“Ahhhh!” The soul with the strange woman’s face screamed continuously in the gluttony.

"Refine!" Xu Sheng continued to practice the Great Taotie Technique.

After some time.

The strange woman's spirit was reduced to a weak ghost.

The rest were refined by Xu Sheng.

While digesting these powers, Xu Sheng also felt that the power in his soul had become less pure, and some of them were conflicting with each other.

After all, it is the magic power cultivated by others.

"Get out of here first!"

Then Xu Sheng took the little nun's body and quickly left the battlefield.

Then sit cross-legged in a safe place.

Afterwards, he closed his eyes and practiced the digestive part of the Great Taotie Technique.

Suddenly, the blood and energy of the extremely yang body surged up into the sea of ​​consciousness and violently suppressed the abnormal movements of these external forces in Taotie's body.

After practicing like this for three months.

Finally everything was completely digested!

At this time, Xu Sheng's cultivation had been improved again.

Xu Sheng dispersed the Taotie.

It once again transformed into a huge divine soul.

Then Xu Sheng divided his soul and thoughts into parts.

He discovered that the number of his Yang Shen souls had reached forty-six!

It’s increased by ten as much!

It can be said that there has been a great improvement in strength!

"This great gluttony technique!"

Xu Sheng couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart at this time: "It's really terrifying."

Then Xu Sheng immediately brought the strange woman, who was only a weak ghost left, to his front.

"Who are you?"

His magical power condensed into a claw that grabbed the throat of the strange woman's ghost. He asked sternly, "Why are you the one controlling this body? Where is the original owner of this body? Tell me! Otherwise, I will turn you into ashes!!!"

"Have mercy, have mercy."

The strange woman's spirit also begged for mercy: "I was also forced..."

Then she began to tell the story.

It turned out that she was a female demon who was deceived by the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva and practiced the Buddhist teachings he taught, and was thus controlled by him.

But the owner of the body she used was not dead!

He simply had to abandon his physical body and escape.

This fake Bodhisattva Guanyin was reluctant to kill the little nun's physical body directly.

After all, the nun's body is a body of top-grade spiritual roots, and she has been practicing for so many years, especially practicing the Great Pure Land Sutra with Xu Sheng for many years and being nourished by the dragon blood.

It brings about a qualitative improvement in the physical body!

In short, this body has become of very high quality!

Using it to practice will speed up your practice a lot.

So this fake Bodhisattva Guanyin put the spirit and soul of the demon girl that he controlled into the body of a young nun, allowing her to act and practice with the body of the young nun, and after a period of time, the demon girl would provide the pure yang soul for him to devour.

This fake Bodhisattva Guanyin only eats the souls of those who have achieved success in cultivation.

She is cruel though.

But they do not eat the flesh.

So the little nun's body was preserved in this way.

This banshee has been using it all along.

Usually, it is used for cultivation and to serve as a lackey for the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Apart from that, nothing else special was done.

"So, the little nun is not dead?"

Xu Sheng was also happy when he heard this.

Although we have not been able to save the little nun completely.

But at least her body has been saved now.

After that, as long as her soul is recovered and her body is returned to her, the little nun will be able to completely return to her original state.

I just don’t know how the little nun escaped?

After all, that fake Guanyin Bodhisattva is so powerful!

Of course, Xu Sheng immediately asked this question to the soul of the banshee in front of him.

At the same time he continued to ask:

"Where did she escape to? Where is she now? Do you know?"
