The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 227: Leading the Jizhou Army to Flatten Biming Mountain
into the night.

The grass in Biming Mountain is hazy, the moon is dark and the wind is strong.

One after another figures stepped into the mountain. The strange thing was that these figures stepped on the dead branches and broken leaves without making any sound, as if they were ghosts floating by.

They were carrying a black sedan chair, which gave off a sinister aura.

Two figures could be vaguely seen in the sedan chair.

A man wearing a black robe and an iron mask, with only one scarlet eye exposed, he looked sinister and deep, with an unfathomable aura.

The other was a woman in a red dress. She was kneeling at the feet of the man in black robe, listening respectfully to her master's arrangements.

After the man in black robe finished speaking, her eyes seemed to be filled with excitement, and her voice was trembling a little.

"Yes, Master!"

"I will arrange it right away!"

Zhang Jiuyang nodded, thinking about tonight's plan in his mind, and after making sure that nothing was missed, he slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were cold.

Tonight's assessment task is destined to be a fierce battle. Let's see who will win in the end.

The Painted Skins carried the sedan chair, but did not go directly up the mountain. Instead, they came to a secret cave and put Zhang Jiuyang down.

He asked all his men to guard outside, and he entered the cave alone without lighting a torch.

The sound of a knife clanging!
There was a flash of cold light in the cave, and the knife light was like thunder, illuminating a pair of heroic eyes. The momentum was terrifying, as if there was the wrath to slay demons.

The knife was so fast, moving like thunder, and the strong knife energy cut fine marks on the surrounding stone walls.

Zhang Jiuyang seemed to see thunder and sky fire, fierce and domineering, wiping out all the demons!
He was suddenly startled, and his third eye opened instantly as he sensed the danger. Then the knife, which was as fast as thunder, began to slow down, allowing him to finally see the trajectory clearly.

retreat!

Zhang Jiuyang formed a seal with his hands, and his body suddenly turned into a ball of mist, drifting in all directions.

Thirteen Forms of Escape: Mist Escape!
The sword missed, and the opponent immediately drew his sword to defend himself. At this moment, a hand with a bronze luster stretched out from the clouds, with lightning and thunder on its palm.

Taoist palm thunder!
boom! !

The collision of the palm and the blade actually produced a sound of metal and stone, and an obvious burnt mark appeared on the snow-white blade. Thunder blasted in all directions, shaking the cave with a rumbling sound.

The evil painted-skin spirits outside heard the noise and tried to go in to check, but were stopped by the embroiderer.

The noise only lasted for a moment, and soon it became quiet again.

in the cave.

Zhang Jiuyang looked at the long knife on his neck, smiled bitterly, and said, "Yue Ling, I know you are powerful, but you don't have to hit me like this."

Yue Ling smiled slightly, reached out and took off his Painted Skin mask. She thought she would see Zhang Jiuyang's face, but her pupils froze.

Under the mask was a hideous and ugly face, exactly the same as the one in Painted Skin.

She reacted immediately, with a strange look in her eyes.

"The art of human escape?"

Zhang Jiuyang nodded and said, "It's getting better, right? This time I go up the mountain as the Painted Skin Master, which gives me an extra layer of protection."

His Taoism has improved rapidly during this period. He has reached the critical stage of preparing to collect herbs and refine the elixir. He also found time to practice the Thirteen Forms of Escape and has mastered the Mist Escape and Human Escape.

In addition, secret techniques such as the Immortal Golden Body and Palm Thunder have also been improved and become even more powerful.

He was full of confidence and thought he was a good fighter among the four realms, but he didn't expect Yue Ling to smash his pride with two sword strikes.

"Change back to me, it looks awkward."

Zhang Jiuyang pinched the seal again, and his appearance changed rapidly, returning to his original appearance, handsome and elegant, with a jade-like figure.

The Human Escape Chapter allows one to have a thousand faces and appearances, and transform into anyone Zhang Jiuyang has ever seen. Of course, whether the person looks exactly like the person and how many flaws there are depends on the level of this magic.

Zhang Jiuyang has only achieved the initial stage of cultivation, but he has already achieved a high level of accomplishment. He is already a genius.

Yue Ling then let go of the knife, looked at the cracks on the blade that were visible to the naked eye, and said with a smile: "It's amazing. You are only in the third realm, but you can dodge my first knife and take the initiative to attack. Even among the fourth realm, it is rare."

She didn't feel too surprised. After all, she had killed a fourth-level demon when she was in the third level.

For geniuses like them, crossing borders to kill enemies is normal when they are at a low level.

But what really shocked her was that Zhang Jiuyang's progress was too fast!
How long has it been since then, and his magic power has improved to this extent?

"That agarwood is indeed very effective, but unfortunately it only has the greatest effect on the third realm. The effect on the fourth realm is greatly reduced, and there is almost no effect on the fifth realm."

Zhang Jiuyang shook his head, with some regret in his eyes.

Agarwood is not a panacea. The Dragon Girl has tried it but found that it has almost no benefit. She even needs to use her magic power to refine it again. It is not as convenient as practicing on her own.

Otherwise he would have sent some to Yue Ling as well.

Yue Ling didn't care at all and smiled, "I've already inquired about it. This kind of agarwood is extremely precious. Only the imperial palace has it in the capital. It is a tribute from the island country in the East China Sea. Generally, only a few favored ladies and the queen are qualified to use it."

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes flashed. No wonder the Moon Goddess could get the agarwood.

In addition to helping people to practice, this incense can also calm the mind and promote sleep, and nourish the soul. Therefore, ordinary people can also smell it, but the dosage should not be too large.

"We'll talk about the Moon God later. Let's talk about Wan Fu Tower first."

Zhang Jiuyang looked at the sky outside the cave, and without further delay, went straight to the point.

The reason he came to meet Yue Ling this time was to ask if Yue Ling had discovered anything during his secret surveillance of Wanfu Tower these days.

When talking about business, Yue Ling's expression immediately became much more solemn.

She sheathed her sword and said in a concentrated voice, "Just as you expected, the two-faced Buddha should have told Sun Tianchi about the collision with the mountain. These days, the Wanfu Tower has been closed to the outside world, and no disciples are allowed to go out. It seems that they are setting up some kind of formation."

Zhang Jiuyang nodded. This was not surprising. Sitting and waiting for death was definitely not the style of the Two-Faced Buddha.

"I wanted to observe what kind of formation it was, and then ask the supervisor to give me a way to break it, but I didn't expect to find something very strange."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Yue Ling said seriously, "It seems that a disciple in Wan Fu Tower got married a few days ago, and it was quite a big wedding."

Zhang Jiuyang raised his eyebrows slightly. It was not uncommon for Taoist disciples to get married. The Wanfu Tower did not prohibit women, had fewer rules, and even had the method of dual cultivation of the cauldron and furnace.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Sun Mingyu is addicted to beauty.

The art of bedroom is also an orthodox Taoist practice, but if one’s intentions are not right and one’s concentration is insufficient, it is easy to go astray.

"There's nothing wrong with getting married, but at this point in time, it's very wrong."

Zhang Jiuyang said lightly.

"Yes, his son died not long ago, and the mountain crash is about to happen. It is really inappropriate to hold a wedding at this time."

"The most important thing is that Sun Tianchi has an extreme temperament. His son just died and he is in grief and anger. Who among his disciples would dare to get married at this time?"

Zhang Jiuyang smiled and said, "That's definitely touching the tiger's butt, but strangely, Sun Tianchi didn't get angry, and the wedding went very smoothly, right?"

Yue Ling nodded and said, "I know this is very wrong, and I wanted to investigate, but the Wanfu Tower has been closed and a formation has been set up. I was afraid of alerting the enemy if I sneaked in rashly, so I didn't go in."

"You're right. Instead of sneaking up the mountain and taking risks, it's better to be open and aboveboard and let the other party take the initiative to invite me up."

Zhang Jiuyang smiled slightly and slowly put on the iron mask.

With the art of human escape, he once again turned into the sinister, weird, cold and deep Master of Painted Skin.

"Just let me go and see what they are doing."

He turned and walked out of the cave.

Looking at Zhang Jiuyang's back, Yue Ling suddenly said, "It's dangerous tonight, be careful."

Zhang Jiuyang paused, turned around and said, "After we go up the mountain, I will find out the situation. If there is any change, I will send someone to contact you. Otherwise, everything will proceed according to the plan."

"General Yue, it looks like we'll have to fight side by side again tonight."

Yue Ling smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will protect your life."

"Remember you once asked me what I would do if you were trapped in Wanfu Tower?"

Zhang Jiuyang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course I remember. At that time you said you could only help me collect the body."

Yue Ling looked at him, her eyes clear as water and sharp as a knife.

"I will lead the Jizhou Army to flatten the entire Biming Mountain."

Zhang Jiuyang was shocked. Looking at the frank and sincere female general in red robe and silver armor, he couldn't help but feel moved.

Yue Ling is a person who always keeps his promises.

Leading the Jizhou army to flatten the Biming Mountain may sound domineering, but she will have to pay a huge price. Apart from anything else, the emperor of the time will be the first to get angry.

If a general mobilizes troops without permission, he will be beheaded. Even if Yue Ling has a strong backing and connections, he may not be able to withstand the emperor's wrath.

But as comrades and colleagues, this commitment is very admirable and reassuring.

He didn't say anything, but just looked at Yue Ling deeply, then turned and left, surrounded by countless painted-skin evil spirits, heading towards the Wanfu Tower on the Biming Mountain.

On a dark, windy night, it is the time to kill.

It’s a pity that the beautiful mountains and rivers are like this, but I wonder how many bones will be buried here.

Sun Tianchi, after tonight, whether Wanfu Tower will be wiped out from the world depends on your choice.

……

Demon-subduing cave.

Sun Tianchi was standing outside, looking at the dim moon above his head, his face as gloomy as water.

Perhaps because a demon was going to crash into the mountain tonight, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.

Looking back, there was a huge amount of resentment in the Demon-Subduing Cave, but it was also accompanied by some kind of Sanskrit chanting, and an extremely terrifying aura was quietly brewing.

The eight hundred evil-suppressing talismans that he had laid out with his own hands were actually trembling slightly, as if they were unable to suppress the evil spirit in the cave.

"Two-Faced Buddha, I have already given you the brow bone of the founder. Why is it so slow that you have not yet refined it?"

Sun Tianchi looked very unhappy.

The two-faced Buddha was refining a cassock made of human bones in the cave. This thing was too cruel and against the harmony of nature, and it could easily attract thunder and natural disasters.

Many demons had been imprisoned in the Demon-Subduing Cave, and their resentment was so deep that it could obscure the secrets of heaven. Coupled with the large formation formed by eight hundred evil-suppressing talismans, this cassock composed of four hundred and ninety monks' brow bones could have a chance of coming out.

"Mr. Xuanfu is worthy of being the founder of your sect. He was a master of talismans back then. His brow bone is not that easy to refine, so it is normal that it takes some time."

An old voice with a sense of Zen was heard in the cave, like the sound of Sanskrit, but with an indescribable evil feeling.

"But according to what you said, a demon will come and crash into the mountain tonight!"

"Haven't you already arranged the formation in advance?"

"Besides, I have found a helper for you."

"Helper? Who is it?"

The voice in the cave paused slightly, and then said with a smile: "He is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, an evil aura rose up from the mountain. Countless evil spirits with painted skins carried a sedan chair and flew towards the back mountain on the wind.

Many disciples of Wanfu Tower were alarmed. Feeling the terrifying aura, they were terrified and took out various talismans, ready to go.

Outside the Demon-Subduing Cave, painted skins are rampant.

The sedan chair slowly descended, and a figure walked out of it.

His black robe fluttered, his eyes were disdainful, he held a nine-section golden scepter in his hand, and his cold voice was like the sudden arrival of winter, making everyone shudder.

"I am the Master of Painted Skin."

"Master Sun, is this how you treat guests?"
