Chapter 458 Black Water and Blood Spring

Facing Shao Siming's attack, the Ghost King Xuanyuan leaped up and avoided the vital position, but the dragon and tiger hooks were so fast that the two crossed and cut off one of the Ghost King's feet.

Suddenly, shrill screams were heard, and blood splattered all over the sky, turning into thin mist amid the screams.

The fog vibrated, and the screams became even more shrill. This time the screams were very strange. They did not enter the ears, but went straight to the heart, rising from Shao Siming's mind. However, Shao Siming, who faced the impact directly, remained calm and unmoved.

With a wave of the purple bamboo branch in his hand, bursts of Buddhist sounds rang out, and an illusory arm stretched out from the void and suddenly pressed down on the ghost king.

"Stop pretending. You are definitely capable of more than just this. Why don't you show your true colors?"

Shao Siming stared at the Ghost King, only to hear the original screams becoming multiple, and then the Xuanyuan Ghost King began to swell, and streams of black water flowed out. Many ghosts existed in the black water, and as the black water spread, they grabbed something around them.

Slowly, the boundary between the edge of the Ghost King's body and the outside world became very blurred, and his face seemed to be wearing a bone mask, reflecting a pale and dead light.

The arm with lotus patterns like eyes passed directly through the Ghost King's body. With a turn of the wrist, the lotus blossomed, and many hands stretched out from inside, but none of them could catch the Ghost King.

"So that's how it is. Your method of cultivation is based on Buddhism, but it also incorporates some of the methods of Shinto and immortals. With a system that is neither Buddha, nor God, nor immortal, you actually have the nerve to call yourself Shao Siming..."

Before the Ghost King Xuanyuan could finish his words, a purple bamboo branch passed by, causing ripples and causing his shape to change slightly. The already blurred boundaries became even more illusory, and the Ghost King was so scared that he hurriedly solidified his shape a little.

And this solidification was also an opportunity for Shao Siming to seize. The ripples created by the waving of the purple bamboo branch made lotus flowers appear in the void. Arms stretched out and hit the Ghost King several times.

The ghost king's mask was also slightly red after being beaten, and he angrily said, "Asshole, if the Xuanyou Yuanying Pearl that I painstakingly refined had not been taken away by that half-faced scholar..."

Shao Siming had gradually seen through the Ghost King's intentions. He sneered and spoke in a similar tone as before.

"So that's how it is. Your cultivation method is not based on the Ghost Immortal and Ghost King system, but is related to the Secret Treasure Master. Mystery, hiding, and forgetting are your foundation, and outside of that is the Ghost Immortal and Ghost King cultivation system that you specially mixed in."

"This can explain why it was you who brought Banmian Shusheng into the Chiyou Blood Spring, but everyone seemed to have forgotten you in the end. No wonder you wanted to refine the Xuanyou Yuanying Pearl. It was to use the innocent heart contained in it to stabilize your state and prevent yourself from being completely forgotten?"

"Unfortunately, your body is too full of Yin and turbid Qi. It's ok to maintain yourself with the Xuanyou Yuanying Pearl. Once you choose a better pure Yang Yuanying Pearl, it will inevitably cause the Yin in your body to become unbalanced, and the Yang will rush outward, causing the Yin and Yang to be misplaced and disappear. But now, without the Xuanyou Yuanying Pearl, you are not much better. You dare not use the method of forgetting easily."

"What do you know? My magic is far beyond your imagination! The so-called Pure Yang Yuanying Orb is just a gem condensed from the pure Yang energy of one person. Although mysterious, it is just the manifestation of Yang and harmony. And my Xuanyou Yuanying Orb is made from the blood, flesh and soul of 36,500 infants. I sacrifice the blood, flesh and soul of 36 infants every day. This has been repeated for nine years before it is considered a minor success. During this period, more than 100,000 infants were sacrificed, and each infant must have parents."

After Xuanyuan Ghost King shouted loudly, he showed a smug attitude.

"If only half of the more than 100,000 families could remember these babies, it would help me maintain the current situation."

Such remarks made Shao Siming so angry that he laughed instead.

"It's really a wonderful method that makes people want to beat you to death. I didn't care about your method originally, but now it seems that if I don't get involved, it seems that I will be sorry for what you did in the past. It just so happens that your current state is in a mysterious state of being hidden and forgotten, which is really easy to define. Let me see how far you can go."

Shao Siming chanted the small mantra of "All Dharmas are as you wish" softly, and at the same time, he activated Chu Tai's ability of offering wine. Hearing the mantra, Xuanyuan Ghost King was a little surprised, and then he felt his body begin to twist uncontrollably, as if changing into other forms.

"what have you done?"

"I have seen the incarnation of Jiuliu Zhenjun, and learned a short spell of Wanfa Ruyi. I also know some secret methods that can define certain concepts in a certain period of time. It just so happens that you are in an uncertain state of being forgotten at this moment, so I will combine the two methods to define your form. This method can be called the Hundred Changes Heavenly Demon Spell for you."

As he spoke, a tiny illusory grasshopper gradually appeared in Shao Siming's hand.

The essence of the grasshopper was the small spell of all good fortune, and Shao Siming added some of the aura of the Xuanyuan Ghost King. The combination of the two made the outline of the grasshopper gradually emerge on the edge of the Ghost King's illusory body.

"Don't even think about it!"

Xuanyuan Ghost King, who noticed Shao Siming's thoughts, widened his eyes, and a complex and corrupt aura of sin gradually emerged from the black water on his body. This was his hidden mystery and also one of his core essences.

Revealing it at this moment not only stabilized himself, but also allowed Shao Siming to seize the opportunity.

Arms fell down and plunged into the black water, and then lotus flowers bloomed, trying to redeem the dead souls within.

“Hahaha, what do you know? My essence is the sin of the fallen souls of the past. It is the truth hidden by the Secret Treasure Master. It is the wailing of countless creatures in this world. How can you, a cultivator,…”

The ghost king Xuanyuan only heard half of his sneer. In the pupils behind his bone mask, a shadow of a god sitting among countless flowers, like a goddess or a bodhisattva, was reflected. Orchids and flowers were growing, and thousands of arms stretched out, holding up the sins. The god shed tears of blood and whispered, "It's hard! There is no Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

The Buddha's light surged upward, and a seemingly illusory and broken world spread out, with countless auras of decadence and destruction settling in it.

That world is very unreal, because Shao Siming is not the real bearer, but it also has a real atmosphere, because Shao Siming, who has completely integrated the Dharma, has witnessed it.

Now, Shao Siming used the part of the illusion of this world that he carried to carry the illusory concept, and finally constructed the illusion of suppressing the essence of Xuanyuan Ghost King.

The purple bamboo branch was thrown out and fell into the illusion, generating a bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves trembled, shedding drops of dew, which brought out the essence of the Ghost King and allowed black water to flow in the illusion, filling in part of the reality.

Later, it was led out by Shao Siming, spreading around along the earth veins, gradually washing away the blood spring power retained in the earth veins.

This action made the Half-Faced Scholar feel something. Just as he was about to take action, he saw a ruined illusory kingdom unfold. In it sat a goddess with a thousand arms and eyes, who looked like a bodhisattva. The moment she saw the Half-Faced Scholar, the flowers and orchids around her grew and became extremely lush. During the expansion process, more arms grew out and reached into the earth veins to suppress the surging power of the blood spring.

Let the black water flow through, neutralize the remaining power of the blood spring, and gradually reduce the influence of the Half-Faced Scholar on the outside world.

Seeing what Shao Siming had done, Fahai and Ren Laodao both took action to intercept the Half-Faced Scholar who wanted to attack Shao Siming.
