Yang Sheng's words made Chen You frown.
"Ah Sheng, what do you mean by this? Do you really believe that bastard Fang Yunhai's instigation?"
That guy has become possessed by evil; all those things he said were meant to sow discord between us!
He was clearly greedy and wanted to cultivate into a Yin spirit, yet he blames everyone and everyone else, saying I was the one who caused it—it's utterly absurd!
Yang Sheng gently shook his head and said, "Of course I don't believe Fang Yunhai's words. I only believe my own judgment."
Actually, Brother You, you taught me Maoshan secret techniques and guided me in Taoist arts, so you're practically my mentor. I really don't want to fall out with you.
But if you don't stop now, not only will you lose your life, but everyone in the Golden Cloud Building will die with you.
The anger on Chen You's face dissipated, and he slowly asked, "When did you realize something was wrong?"
Yang Sheng said in a deep voice, "It started with Amei's incident."
You said that Ami can no longer be sealed, but in reality, the talismans on Ami's door have been there for a long time, and they don't need to be reinforced every now and then as you said.
Moreover, I have carefully examined the sealing talisman. It is a very niche talisman from the Maoshan secret arts. It is not used for sealing, but rather for gathering Yin energy.
Some talismans are for sealing, but others are used to gather yin energy. Are you worried that Amei isn't growing fast enough?
Chen You paused for a moment and said, "This doesn't prove anything. Perhaps I didn't get rid of the old talismans? There are also methods in Maoshan secret arts to use Yin-gathering talismans to form talisman arrays."
Yang Sheng sighed, "Yes, so I thought I was overthinking it back then."
However, Fang Yunhai's ability to stir up trouble and do so many things at the Jinxiao Building is the biggest loophole you left, Brother You!
Fang Yunhai is a sorcerer by training, and his strength is far inferior to yours, yet he has managed to raise so many evil and strange creatures right under your nose. This must be the result of your deliberate indulgence.
The same goes for that Buddhist scripture. If you don't want Fang Yunhai to steal it, how could he possibly take it away with his strength?
Fang Yunhai himself has already fallen into demonic possession, pursuing that illusory ascension and wanting to truly become a Yin God, so he corresponds to the "unfulfilled desire" among the Eight Sufferings, right?
Fang Yunhai isn't the only one who wants to refine the Barrier-Breaking and Form-Separating Relic; you, Brother You, are too!
Fang Yunhai probably already realized it, but he was already possessed by demons, too confident that he could kill you, Brother You. In the end, he just paved the way for you.
Listening to Yang Sheng slowly recount his story, Chen You revealed a bitter smile: "Ah Sheng, I told you back then that you weren't suited to practicing Maoshan magic and should join a gang as a double-flower red stick. Now it seems that I was completely wrong!"
Not only are you a skilled fighter, but you're also incredibly intelligent. You'd be more than capable of being a gang leader.
Yang Sheng sighed and said, "Someone said the same thing back then."
Brother You, you're not an ambitious person like Fang Yunhai. You also have compassion for people like Mrs. He who have suffered so much.
But you still went ahead and plotted to lure Fang Yunhai into turning them into ghosts. What exactly are you trying to do?
Chen You looked at the memorial tablet in the bedroom.
On the wall above the memorial tablet hangs a slightly blurry black and white photograph of a middle-aged Taoist priest with a square and dignified face and thick, dark eyebrows that are almost joined together.
Looking at the memorial tablet and the photograph, a trace of pain appeared in Chen You's eyes.
"I just want to revive my senior brother!"
My senior brother killed zombies, exorcised evil spirits, and vanquished demons, saving thousands of people throughout his life. What was his final fate?
He was killed by those ignorant fools, and suffered the backlash of evil spirits, without even a complete corpse left behind!
In the Dharma-ending Age, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dissipates, and corpses are cremated; there are no more zombies.
Most Taoist priests have switched to fortune telling and feng shui master jobs to make a living. They are content with that, but I am not!
I discovered the Golden Cloud Building more than ten years ago. It is a place where yin energy gathers and spiritual energy does not dissipate. It can be said to be the only place in this land of declining Dharma where one can perform Taoist arts.
"If I can refine the Barrier-Breaking and Form-Separating Relic here, I am confident that I can reshape my physical body, allowing my senior brother to be resurrected with a wisp of his remnant soul, and revive our Maoshan lineage!"
At this point, Chen You's spiritual energy fluctuations became obvious, but they also carried a sinister aura, clearly indicating that he had also fallen into demonic possession.
Yang Sheng gently shook his head and said, "Brother You, you've misunderstood. What your senior brother might want is not for you to revive him."
For a general to die on the battlefield, or for a Taoist priest to die on the path of slaying ghosts, is the best end.
Why bring back what's already gone?
Moreover, Brother You yourself may not have realized that even if the Golden Sky Building is filled with yin energy, it is impossible for it to create so many ghosts.
The world is changing, and spirituality may be making a comeback.
Although you are the last Celestial Master, we are not necessarily in the Dharma-ending Age.
Birth, old age, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, encountering those one hates, not getting what one desires, and the five aggregates in their intense activity.
This final suffering, the intense burning of the five aggregates, is it you yourself?
"You'd risk your own demonic possession to resurrect your senior brother. Even if he could truly be resurrected, is that what he truly wanted?"
This world evolved from the Yellow Character World; the area that has now changed is merely the Golden Sky Building.
But a world cannot be just such a small place; there must be a much wider world behind the fog.
Therefore, Yang Sheng guessed that the mutations in this world were more profound than he had imagined.
Spiritual energy is reviving, and ghosts and monsters are attacking.
If this is truly the truth of the world, then Taoist priests and celestial masters are no longer in their twilight years, but have truly ushered in a glorious era.
The yin energy in Chen You's eyes grew stronger and stronger. He shook his head and said in a cold voice, "It's too late. I've been setting up this for seven years! The entire Golden Sky Building is filled with talisman arrays that I've set up!"
