Chapter 863 Lingtai Fangcun Mountain

"Intentional or not?"

The three immortals were a little surprised to hear this, but when they saw that Chu Tai did not continue speaking and seemed a little disappointed, they all shut up.

Chu Tai calmed down his emotions and silently memorized the breath of the divine bird.

With five fingers spread out, two Bodhi leaves floated in the palm of the hand. After silently calculating, the two Bodhi leaves pointed in one direction from afar.

Chang Xuan took a step forward, and the golden ruyi in his hand dropped bits of clear light, which then hung upside down after hitting the ground, transforming into hundreds of thousands of golden lanterns, illuminating the way ahead and paving the way.

Seeing this, Xie Ling and Fu Ying were secretly angry that they were a step slow.

But both of them soon found their own position.

A rolling rosy cloud transformed into many celestial maidens scattering flowers, which spread on the path of light.

One of them lifted up a pagoda, and gathered the precious light to form a canopy that fell above Chu Tai's head.

It can be seen that the three people are trying their best to uphold Chu Tai's majesty and holiness, but in the eyes of Chu Tai, who has seen the dignity of Shinto, such strange phenomena are really too trivial.

However, he did not reject the kindness of the three people and allowed them to roll up the rays of light and pull the golden lantern.

But when they were halfway there, the sky suddenly appeared with strong red and yellow glow, followed by green, blue and purple glow.

The three men's expressions changed slightly, and they stood in front to guard.

The next moment, all the colors mixed together, as if the sky had turned into a canvas with paint splashed on it at will.

Those gray or bright colors twist and rise and fall like mad snakes, leaving behind abstract lines. The strong contrast makes people feel dazed.

The surrounding scenes were then pulled away and transformed into countless abstract lines, which made people feel absurd and distorted.

"what is this?"

Xie Ling screamed and began to speak. Her breath leaked out and the abstract lines around her immediately started to burn. From them walked out twisted figures with faces that looked like skeletons and their hands covering their ears.

What followed was a strong emotion filled with depression, anxiety and pain, which easily penetrated Xie Ling's mind, tormented her thoughts, impacted her soul, and made her want to cover her ears.

The most troublesome thing is that beneath this extreme emotion, there is a terrifying desire rising up, disturbing his mind.

This kind of desire cannot be suppressed by the demon-subduing pestle in his hand. After all, in the current time period, the scorpion spirit naturally matches the concept of "wind and moon demon", and even its magical power, the horse-inverting stake, is related to the concept of "wind and moon demon".

This is also the reason why Chu Tai gave her the Demon-Subduing Pestle, so that he could use the way of "discipline" to suppress her nature and assist her in her practice.

However, those twisted figures just happen to restrain the way of "precepts". By distorting and twisting the meaning of the precepts, they destroy the effectiveness of the precepts and even lead people to break the precepts.

Once the rules were broken, Xie Ling naturally could not hold on any longer.

"careful!"

Fu Ying realized something was wrong and hurriedly took out the Linglong Pagoda. The pagoda in her hand gathered the power of "concentration", which had the power to open consciousness and transcend life and death. At this moment, she also wanted to use the power of the pagoda to stabilize Xie Ling's mind.

But the glow of the pagoda had just risen, and the various colors above quickly intertwined, forming a gloomy, terrifying, and gloomy gate between the light and shadow.

Ghostly fires were floating around the portal and a chilling wind was gushing out from it, sweeping in all directions. Tens of thousands of ghosts were desperately scratching out from behind the door, trying to pull the pagoda inside.

Anyone who tries to transcend life and death will be envied and hated by the dead.

The resentment of the dead souls turned into black air, tightly entwined around the pagoda, polluting the six senses and confusing the six roots.

The relics on the pagoda were gradually covered with dust, and Fu Ying's breath became increasingly chaotic, even revealing a hint of death, and he was no longer able to take care of himself.

When Chang Xuan saw this scene, he immediately stepped forward to help.

His golden Ruyi embodies the way of "wisdom", which has four mysteries: pacifying disasters, increasing benefits, blessing, and subduing. But just as the Buddha's light rose above the Ruyi, a knife light jumped out from the sky.

As soon as it appeared, the sword light dispersed into thousands. As it was swung, countless flickering sword shadows filled the void, making it impossible to see where they came from and where they went.

What’s interesting is that although the sword lights are sharp, there is not even the slightest sword wind in the air, and there is not even the slightest distortion or fluctuation. The power is completely restrained, as if it is an illusion.

But the aura of slaughter that came with the sword light and the thousands of troops could not be faked. Under that power, no matter how Jin Ruyi changed, it was useless.

After restraining the three people, the colors in the sky changed again.

A large amount of dim yellow fog emerged from the void, squirming and twisting, and then gradually turned into dark evil spirit. Many distorted faces gradually emerged inside, roaring and rushing towards Chu Tai.

"Your Excellency?"

Chang Xuan, Xie Ling and Fu Ying were all shocked and struggled to help, but the more they struggled, the more terrifying the power derived from the surroundings became. Even with the protection of treasures, they could only maintain the purity of their own body and mind, and were unable to help Chu Tai.

Chu Tai didn't even look at the falling black fog and just took a step forward.

The falling black fog dissipated instantly, and the many illusions that trapped the other three people also disappeared one by one.

A mysterious realm with thousands of wonderful appearances was exposed in front of the four people.

Looking up, you can see the misty clouds, the flying eaves of the buildings, and the magnificent fairyland of heaven.

Below, there is a dark and foggy hell filled with demonic shadows, mysterious and bizarre.

Buddha's light and golden lotus are revealed in the west, and beneath the chanting of Sanskrit is the solemn and majestic paradise.

To the east, the lights are dim and the world is full of fireworks...

It seems so real and illusory, making people intoxicated.

"what is this?"

Chang Xuan, Xie Ling and Fu Ying were stunned at the scene before them.

"This is a spiritual world, where the sun, moon, and stars move, flowers, birds, insects, and fish grow, and the cycle of life and death changes. All of these are based on the principles of their master."

"So, all of the previous ones were illusions?"

Xie Ling asked in a low voice, and Chu Tai retorted.

"To me, it's an illusion. As long as you don't pay attention to it, there will be no problem. But it's not the same for you. Even if you see through it, you can't get rid of the influence of this spiritual world on you. At most, you can keep it pure because of your intention. You will still get hurt, because if this world goes one step further, it will be no different from the world outside."

After a brief explanation, Chu Tai didn't care about this high spiritual achievement, he just looked down.

There is fear, and it is boundless. It is a "purgatory" formed by the fearful thoughts of countless living beings in the current period of time.

With just one glance, one can see scenes of hundreds of ghosts roaming at night, demons dancing wildly, thousands of souls wailing at night, thousands of beasts eating people, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, etc. These endless scenes express the darkest and most twisted emotional illusions in human hearts and human nature.

When Chu Tai noticed this power, the boundless fear began to erode outward.
Thick clouds covered the sky, obscuring the fairyland of the Heavenly Palace. Cold winds surged, blowing down the golden lotus of the Pure Land. Flames rose from the dark clouds, like fire snakes running around in the clouds, making rumbling sounds and shattering everything in the world.

Such a horrifying scene frightened the three immortals so much that they retreated again and again, and among the many strange phenomena, a sigh was heard.

"You can just come, why make such a big fuss?"

The mist and clouds spread out in all colors, dispelling the dark clouds; the sun and the moon shine brightly, suppressing the sinister wind.

Thousands of old cypresses rise from the ground, tens of thousands of tall bamboos appear out of thin air, black monkeys and white deer run around, golden lions and jade elephants hide among them, and in front of this wonderful place, there stands a stone tablet, more than three meters high and about eight feet wide, with a line of words on it, which reads "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain".
