Chapter 271
Funeng frowned and said, "This kid has too many demons in his heart. It's not easy to pass this illusion."
Although Mu Yinghai was a pretty boy with a nose that wasn't a nose and eyes that weren't eyes, they still had some friendship for each other as they were traveling together. Besides, he didn't want Mu Yinghai to affect their exploration of Yingtan Gorge.
Yuan Jing said softly: "After all, it is the revenge for the murder of my mother. It is not easy to let it go before the enemy is dealt with, but it should be possible to get over it."
After all, Mu Yinghai is the male protagonist, and he has great luck. It is impossible for him to be easily defeated by such an illusion.
Fu Neng rolled his eyes and asked, "Junior Brother Jing, what do you see in him?"
Yuan Jing whispered even more: "He has strong luck."
Funeng immediately understood that with such a half-demon with great luck joining them in dealing with Lingxiao Demon Dao, their chances of winning would be much greater.
Mu Yinghai's face became hideous and ferocious. He chopped wildly with the knife for a while, and also transformed into a half-demon body, that is, an incomplete demon body. The human form was still there, but the upper body was covered with a layer of feathers, and there were fine scales under the feathers. The aura on his body also became stronger because of this change.
Fu could see this half-demon body and said, "Is there any connection between this guy and the demon king inside? This kid must have concealed a lot in the story he told before."
Yuan Jing could also see that Mu Yinghai's demon body was a flying crane, and there was a hint of divinity in his blood. He thought to himself that he was worthy of being the hero, otherwise it would be difficult for an ordinary flying crane to cultivate to perfection, so how could Mu Yinghai have the strength to deal with the ultimate villain BOSS.
"Maybe he himself doesn't know what's going on."
As they were talking, a powerful aura suddenly rose from the mountain stream. Yuan Jing and Funeng's faces changed and they said at the same time: "It's the demon king!"
The two looked at each other, and Yuan Jing concluded: "It seems that Mu Yinghai's situation has alarmed the sealed demon king."
Funeng also guessed the same thing, and saw that because of the powerful aura that rose, the illusion outside began to weaken, and the expression on the face of the mad Mu Yinghai gradually calmed down. He thought to himself, could this be the power of destiny? Relying on the demon king to help Mu Yinghai, the son of destiny, overcome his inner demons?
Well, he was not envious at all, as he was able to defeat all enemies with his own abilities.
Mu Yinghai finally broke free from the illusion. When he regained consciousness, he realized that everything he had just experienced was an illusion. His face changed again and again, and finally he sighed, clenched his fists, and told himself in his heart that one day he would rush to the capital to kill the Ling Xiao demon and use his head to sacrifice to his mother.
Suddenly his expression changed again. He looked towards the center of the seal and was about to walk over there, but then he remembered the two companions who came with him. He turned around and looked at them and said, "The owner of that powerful aura must be the demon king. There is a voice calling me over there. I want to go over and take a look."
Yuan Jing said, "Let's go together."
"Okay, thank you." Mu Yinghai breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt a little ashamed. He almost got stuck in the illusion and couldn't get out. How could he talk about revenge for his mother at that time? Compared with Taoist Yuan Jing and Monk Funeng, he was still too weak and could hardly get through an illusion.
Mu Yinghai led the way in front, Yuan Jing continued to copy the formation patterns and runes on the stone wall behind, with Fu Neng helping him, and they went deeper into the center of the seal.
There, the three saw a handsome man trapped on an altar. He was truly handsome, the kind of handsome whose whole body glowed. Yuan Jing, Funeng and Mu Yinghai were all good-looking, but Yuan Jing and Funeng were still young, not fully grown up, and looked a bit immature. Mu Yinghai had a bit of hostility and was a tough type. But the handsome man on the altar was so attractive that people could not take their eyes off him.
It's a pity that the handsome man's limbs were each locked with a chain, and the chains were engraved with runes. The chains and runes continuously drew spiritual energy from the ground and the surroundings, trapping the handsome man firmly on the altar, unable to leave. Because he just struggled for a moment to release his breath, his face was now paler and he looked a little weak, but his eyes were very sharp.
Being looked at in such a way, Mu Yinghai almost took a few steps back, but he didn't know what he thought of and stood there firmly to meet the two gazes. Yuan Jing and Funeng looked at them calmly. Yuan Jing even had the leisure to appreciate the beauty of the handsome man and gave him a thumbs up in his heart.
That Taoist Qianhua really deserves to die, for he was willing to deceive such a beauty. But on the other hand, it also proves that Taoist Qianhua is determined enough. In the face of such beauty, he is not shaken and still wants to throw him into the mountain stream and seal him. Therefore, Yuan Jing feels more and more that Taoist Qianhua will not die so easily, and even if he is going to die, he will leave a way for himself in advance.
The beauty's gaze swept across Yuan Jing and Funeng, and a murderous look flashed in her eyes. It was obvious that she was very unwelcome to the appearance of the Taoist priest and the monk.
Yuan Jing touched his nose awkwardly. It was because the man who deceived and harmed him was a human Taoist priest. If he were in the other's shoes, Yuan Jing would not be able to be kind to a human Taoist priest.
"Are you Mu Shuang's son? You have Mu Shuang's scent on you. Where is Mu Shuang? Why are you here?"
Mu Shuang was Mu Yinghai's mother. Mu Yinghai became excited and said, "Senior, do you know my mother? But my mother died seventeen years ago. She was seriously injured by a Taoist priest and died soon after she gave birth to me after escaping."
"Hmph, it's a human again. Hasn't she learned enough from my lesson back then? Why does she still trust humans so easily and even give birth to a half-demon child like you with a human?" The handsome man frowned and said angrily.
A beauty is still so beautiful even when she frowns, Yuan Jing said secretly.
Mu Yinghai's face flushed as he defended himself, "Mother said that father did not let her down, it was just a Taoist priest who forced her and father to separate. That Taoist priest was too abominable."
"Taoist? Another Taoist? What a hateful Taoist! Why are you traveling with the Taoist and this monk?" The beauty glared at Mu Yinghai and pointed at Yuan Jing and Funeng.
Funeng crossed his arms across his chest, not minding at all that the handsome man was pointing at him. Seeing Mu Yinghai awkwardly not knowing what to say, Funeng sneered and said, "Senior, you have been framed by a Taoist priest, so you regard all Taoist priests and practitioners in the world as enemies. How unreasonable! The Taoist priest who deceived you was you who didn't see through his bad intentions. Why are you taking your anger out on others?"
"There are bad guys among Taoist priests and monks, just like there are monsters that eat humans and their own kind. Should we beat them all to death with a stick like the senior did?"
"Master Funeng, please stop talking." Seeing that the handsome man's face was becoming more and more gloomy, Mu Yinghai hurriedly reminded Funeng in a low voice, asking him to be more sarcastic at this time.
"What are you afraid of? This demon king is now just bearing the title of demon king in vain. He can't get out of it." Funeng continued to provoke.
Although the handsome man was handsome, he had a very bad temper. He was almost angered by the monk Funeng to the point of having his nose crooked. The chains were also rattling because of his struggle, but just as Funeng said, he just couldn't get out.
Mu Yinghai now didn't know who to help. Nothing he said would be right, so he just stood there awkwardly.
Yuan Jing smiled for a while, and then simply found something for himself to do. He continued to study the seal here. When he was tired, he would admire the beauty, and then continue to study the seal. The Taoist priests and monks who sealed the demon king here were all very powerful, and they brought together people from several schools. They had studied these things thoroughly, which was of great help to him.
The demon king finally swallowed his anger. He had decided in his heart that if he had a chance to get out of the seal, he would teach the little monk a lesson. The aura from the little monk was obviously from Guiyuan Temple. If the monk could escape, could the temple also escape?
So no matter how much Funeng provoked the Demon King, the Demon King ignored him. Funeng also found it boring, so he shut up. Now Mu Yinghai could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and the Demon King inside the seal and the three people outside the seal began to get along peacefully.
With the cultivation level of the three people, it doesn't matter if they don't eat or drink for a short period of time. For example, the Demon King has been sealed for who knows how many years and can still live well. However, while studying the seal, Yuan Jing took out food and drinks, gave some to Mu Yinghai, and then ate and drank with Funeng. This made the Demon King, who had finally calmed down, very angry again.
Mu Yinghai silently turned around and ate with his back to the Demon King. After spending a few days with him, he actually knew that Taoist Yuan Jing, who seemed to have a very good temper and was always smiling, was the most difficult to mess with of the two.
After eating, Yuan Jing burped, stretched and said, "I'm done, I'll continue working."
Fu Neng happily said, "I'll help you."
"good."
The Demon King held back his words, but at the same time he glared at Mu Yinghai with disappointment. It was obvious that among the three people, Mu Yinghai was the follower of the Taoist priest and the monk. Mu Yinghai was too disappointing.
What could Mu Yinghai do? In the end, he helped Yuan Jing copy the runes under the gaze of the demon king.
Funeng is right. Now that the Demon King cannot come out, he alone cannot deal with Yuan Jing and Funeng who have joined forces. If he wants to work under these two people, he'd better be honest.
One day, two days, three days...
In the past three days, even Mu Yinghai hadn't spoken a word to the Demon King. Instead, these three people would occasionally exchange a few words with each other, leaving the Demon King aside. The Demon King couldn't stand it anymore. Seeing Yuan Jing lowering his head to study the runes on the chain, he finally spoke:
"You are so ambitious at such a young age. Could it be that you, a little Taoist priest, want to break the seal here?"
Yuan Jing snickered, then looked up at the beauty, waved his hand and said, "I just want to study this seal, but I don't want to break it. Senior is so powerful, and Senior Brother Fu and I have only practiced for a short time, so how can we be your opponent?"
The implication is that the Demon King should stay in the seal. Even if we have the ability to break it, we don't want to unseal him and let him out.
The demon king silently swallowed a mouthful of blood, wishing he could flatten the little Taoist priest with one palm: "You are young, but you are so arrogant. I think I am familiar with the Taoist world. Which sect or Taoist temple are you from? Let's see if your ability matches your tone."
Yuan Jing said with a smile: "I guess the elders of the Taoist temple where I came from have never heard of it. There is nothing I can do. The Taoist temple is too small and located in a remote place."
"You didn't even tell me, so how do you know I haven't heard of it?" The Demon King said unconvinced.
Yuan Jing said, "Senior, have you heard of Liuzhuang Taoist Temple? Now there are only me and my master in the temple. Before my master accepted me as his disciple, it was even worse. My master was the only one guarding the temple on the top of the mountain."
The demon king frowned. He had never heard of the name of this shabby Taoist temple. He became even more suspicious. Could this be some wild Taoist temple? Could the young Taoist priest from such a wild Taoist temple really be so powerful?
Yuan Jing spread his hands and said, "I said you haven't heard of it, senior, let's continue chatting." Yuan Jing simply sat down, holding his chin and looking at the beauty on the altar, "Senior, how many years have you been trapped here? Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
Mu Yinghai twitched his lips and turned around to see Funeng also sitting with Yuan Jing. It seemed that they wanted to chat with Senior Demon King together. Mu Yinghai was speechless and could only follow them.
The three of them sat in a row, looking at the Demon King above, which made the Demon King very upset.
Then Yuan Jing took out three fruits, one for each of them, and started biting into them, crunch, crunch.
The demon king was lucky. He was not angry. He did not need to argue with these three guys. It would be a loss of his demeanor as a demon king. Then he replied: "I have been trapped here for about three or four hundred years. Is the human world outside still the Great Qi court now?"
Yuan Jing stretched out a finger and shook it: "No, senior, it's the Great Zhou Dynasty now. The Great Qi was replaced by the Great Zhou more than a hundred years ago. Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
The demon king didn't expect that during the time he was trapped here, a new dynasty had already been established outside. Thinking back to the past... He shook his head. What else was he thinking about? Wasn't it enough that that bitch had deceived him? If it weren't for that bitch, would he have been trapped here for hundreds of years?
"Unfulfilled wishes? Of course I do. I want to get out of here. Little Taoist priest, can you help me accomplish this? I also want to kill all the Taoist priests and monks in the world. Can you help me?"
Yuan Jing spread his hands: "That's definitely not possible. I can't kill myself. Senior, please change your wish to something more feasible. It's fate that we met each other."
Bah! He doesn't want this fate. Are all Taoist priests and monks like this now?
If he was not mistaken, the cultivation of this young Taoist priest and the young monk was quite good, and even Mu Yinghai, a half-demon, could not compare to them. Could it be that the demons outside were weakened and humans were thriving? The demon king felt extremely sad.
The demon king lowered his eyes and thought for a while. When the three of them finished eating the fruit and threw the core aside, he raised his eyes and said, "I do have an unfulfilled wish. If you can help me fulfill it, I can also give each of you a good thing. I have been roaming the human world for many years, and I don't know how many good things I have collected. Taking out any one of them will be enough to make their cultivation level rise rapidly."
Mu Yinghai was a little excited. This was exactly the purpose of his trip. To avenge his mother's murder was his obsession. However, his current strength was too weak, and he did not dare to rush to the capital to look for his enemy.
Yuan Jing and Funeng were very calm. Yuan Jing held his chin and said, "Then tell me, senior. We can't do anything that is beyond our ability."
