The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 85: The Strongest Newcomer in Huangquan

This time, Zhang Jiuyang did not hide his anger.

The Jade Pivot Heavenly Fire burned on his body, and to be honest, it was very painful. He felt his skin becoming hot and red, like a cooked shrimp.

But the burning pain aroused the violence in his heart even more, making him look ferocious, like a demon from heaven.

In fact, he did not lose his mind. After a month of hard training, his magic power has made great progress. The improvement of Zhongli Eight-Section Brocade and Master Chongyang's Golden Gate Jade Lock Technique has made his physique continue to grow stronger.

Although it is painful at this moment, it is much better than the last time.

Zhang Jiuyang did this on purpose.

Question: How to infiltrate an organization full of evil without being suspected?
The answer is to act more like a demon than the demon itself!

After discovering that there was a cloud of smoke around him that obscured his face and breath, he became even more unscrupulous, even with a hint of provocation, calling the people on the mountain "bastards."

It turned out that his fierce performance did intimidate some people.

The dancing red-gold flames were extremely strong and masculine, domineering, yet also full of violence and inexplicable ferocity. It was simply a combination of contradictions.

The charred corpses of ghosts on the water surface all told of the horror of the fire.

At this moment, even Geng, who had the hottest temper, was shocked and did not refute immediately.

It took him a long time to realize, how dare this newcomer scold me?

Not only was he not angry, but a strange look appeared in his eyes, and he became even more expectant of this newcomer.

Oh well, I finally met a guy who has a worse temper than me. That’s awesome!

After so many years, the other Heavenly Stems have become more profound than each other, and none of them are to my liking. This newcomer looks good.

The eighth Heavenly Stem 'Xin' sneered, his voice still hoarse.

Zhang Jiuyang's flaming red eyes immediately looked towards him, his anger was as strong as a erupting volcano, as if they had a blood feud that would not end until one of them died.

A cold, majestic, magnetic and murderous voice sounded. It was the ventriloquism that Zhang Jiuyang learned from Yue Ling.

"Old eunuch, what are you laughing at?"

The eighth Heavenly Stem 'Xin' immediately stopped laughing. The pair of sinister eyes under the clouds stared at Zhang Jiuyang. Even from a distance, he could feel the horror of the scarlet-gold flames.

Gathering in the underworld, covered by clouds and mist.

Not only can it hide one's appearance, but it also blocks the prying eyes of others. One cannot tell each other's cultivation level, and can only get to know each other through gradual contact.

But this newcomer had just arrived and he displayed his magical powers in public, boiling the Yellow Springs and capturing a water monster with his bare hands. His hostility was as heavy as a sea of ​​blood and a mountain of corpses. He was simply insane to the extreme.

But this also made him fearful and he never dared to underestimate him again.

After a moment's silence, Xin finally didn't say anything harsh, but just snorted coldly.

Seeing Xin's frustrated look, Geng almost laughed out loud, it was like drinking ice in summer, so refreshing!
This new guy is so fucking awesome!

He hadn't seen such a fierce and aggressive newcomer in a long time. Even the old man, Painted Skin Master, was defeated. Haha, it was really too exciting!
The fourth Heavenly Stem 'Ding' said loudly: "Haha, besides liking to eat hearts, what I like most is to make friends with strong people. It seems that you are stronger than the old ghost and deserve the position of the ninth Heavenly Stem!"

His voice was powerful and deep, like muffled thunder, echoing between the mountains and rivers, and even causing gusts of whistling evil winds.

The next day, Gan'Yi' chanted a Buddhist name and said, "No fierce dragon can cross the river. Congratulations, God. It seems that my Huangquan will have another fierce general."

Even Wu and Ji, who had been silent, spoke up. However, to Zhang Jiuyang's surprise, these two people seemed to be women.

"I have no objection to him serving as the ninth heavenly stem."

My voice is very pleasant, faint and cold, like brittle jade.

Wu's voice was even colder, and his words were even more concise, just one word.

"can."

As soon as he appeared, Zhang Jiuyang's performance won the recognition and respect of most people except for the vacant Bing, Ren and Gui.

Even if you have resentment and other thoughts, you can only hide them for now.

In a trance, the voice of Blind Lin seemed to echo in his ears again.

"Xiao Jiu, I was right about you. You and I are actually the same kind of person!"

"One day, you will become more cruel, more terrible, and more evil than I am!"

A smile appeared on Zhang Jiuyang's lips.

If I can eliminate harm, what if I become a bad person?

I thought of Yunniang and her little daughter, the people in Chenjia Village who were buried alive, Xiao Luo who fought to exhaustion in the raging fire but refused to fall, and the devout prayers and incense sticks...

One day, he will kill these evil spirits one by one, chop them up and feed them to the dogs!
As soon as he thought of this, he looked up at the top of the mountain, at the most supreme figure. Even though it was obscured by clouds and mist, he could still feel the vast aura.

Zhang Jiuyang seemed to be able to sense that in the clouds and mist, there were two terrifying gazes falling on him.

The Jade Pivot Sky Fire that was swirling around his body suddenly shrank a little, as if it felt some kind of tremendous oppression.

As unfathomable as the abyss.

Zhang Jiuyang had personally witnessed the birth of Zhong Kui and witnessed his divine power that competed with the heavens, but the current Tianzun actually gave him a feeling that he was no less powerful than Zhong Kui.

It is even more vast, magnificent and mysterious. No wonder a proud person like Blind Lin would compare himself to a mayfly and see the sky as blue.

But Lord Lingguan has a bad temper. He is the Taoist guardian god of the mountain. Even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva of Mount Jiuhua cannot suppress him. So how could he be afraid of an evil spirit?
In an instant, the flames on Zhang Jiuyang's body burned like boiling oil. He looked at Tianzun from a distance, walked out of Huangquan, and stepped onto the foot of the mountain. Every step he took left a charred footprint, and even wisps of flames were burning on the footprints.

Geng was shocked again.

Is this newcomer...challenging Tianzun?
Brother, you are so awesome!

Don't you die?

Little did he know that Zhang Jiuyang was helpless at the moment and was at the end of his strength.

The outburst just now had already reached his limit. He wanted to put away the Heavenly Fire and end this bluffing show, but he didn't want to face the pressure from the Heavenly Venerable. The unruly Jade Pivot Heavenly Fire was actually aroused to its ferocity. The more it was suppressed, the more ferocious it became, and it was almost out of his control.

At this moment, Zhang Jiuyang felt that his limbs and bones were being roasted by flames. If it weren't for the great improvements in his magic power and physical strength in the past month, his body would probably have melted by now.

If he continues like this, he will burn himself to death before Tianzun can take action.

Fortunately, at this moment, he suddenly felt the pressure on his body relieved, and in the clouds and smoke, Tianzun withdrew his gaze.

The Jade Pivot Sky Fire slowly weakened, and under Zhang Jiuyang's efforts to control it, it gradually dissipated.

He breathed a sigh of relief silently.

so close!

However, the performance seemed very successful. He used the power of the Jade Pivot Heavenly Fire to successfully intimidate this group of evil spirits and gained their attention and respect.

Little did he know that he was now just a wax head with a silver spear and couldn't hold on for long.

Moreover, his cultivation level was too low, only at the second realm. Fortunately, he was covered by clouds and mist, so he could avoid revealing any flaws and maintain his image as a big boss.

This should be considered a successful infiltration.

He took a step and prepared to go up the mountain, but the next moment, a figure blocked his way.

In the mist, one could faintly see a pair of extremely sinister eyes, like a poisonous snake in the dark night, and his voice was also extremely hoarse.

"Although your strength has been recognized, according to the rules, if you want to become the ninth Heavenly Stem, you must first accept my assessment. Only after passing the assessment can you go up the mountain."

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes moved. It was the eighth heavenly stem 'Xin'. In this way, the assessment of newcomers was done in order. The eighth was responsible for testing the ninth, and the ninth was responsible for testing the tenth.

He appeared indifferent on the surface, but he was actually very nervous.

Are you kidding me? I have to fight this Xin again?
Not to mention that he no longer has the strength to fight, even if he was in good condition, he would never be his opponent.

The grade of Yushu Tianhuo is very high, but it cannot withstand his current weak cultivation. According to Yue Ling, the evil spirits in Huangquan are at least evil-level or even disaster-level. Blind Lin also said that he is the weakest in Huangquan.

But Zhang Jiuyang knew that he must not reveal any flaws on the surface, otherwise he would only die faster.

In this devil's den, any trace of cowardice and kindness will be a deadly poison.

He sneered, his voice domineering and contemptuous.

"You bastard, are you looking for death?"

His pupils turned red again, and the hostility that had originally dissipated suddenly condensed.

Xin obviously felt the pressure, his sinister eyes flickered under the clouds, and finally he smiled grimly and said: "Ten days later at midnight, go to the Xishikou execution ground in Luotian County, Qingzhou, watch an execution, and then..."

He said meaningfully: "Grab the head of the second beheaded person and bring it to the next Huangquan gathering, and you will pass the test."

Zhang Jiuyang stared at him quietly, feeling relieved, but his eyes were cold and overbearing.

At this time, the voice of Tianzun sounded.

"Go up the mountain to be a fairy, go down the mountain to be a ghost."

"The assessment has already begun. Whether you can go up the mountain depends on your luck."

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly asked, "I can abide by your rules, but you have to tell me what benefits there are after going up the mountain, right?"

Tianzun was not angry, his voice was still loud and deep, like a calm well.

"You will know it naturally when you go up the mountain."

After a pause, he continued, "According to the rules, we are not allowed to interfere or watch the newcomer assessment. Those who violate this rule will be killed. At the same time, those who are being assessed must not be timid and retreat, otherwise we will all be killed together with Huangquan Tiangan."

Zhang Jiuyang was startled when he heard this. The first half of Tianzun's sentence was to protect the newcomer, but the second half was to warn him.

Although the clouds and mist obscure each other's true identities, this world is full of wonders and the Heavenly Master is even more unfathomable. Who knows if others can find you?

This blocked Zhang Jiuyang's way out. He now had only two choices: either pass the assessment and join Huangquan, or die in the assessment.

Under such heavy pressure, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the ruthlessness in his bones made him not afraid of anger.

Then take the third path, join Huangquan, and then... send you on your way!
"I will go to watch the execution in ten days. I hope your task will be interesting. Otherwise..."

Zhang Jiuyang tilted his head slightly and stared at Xin, his red eyes filled with murderous intent as he spoke every word.

"I'll take your head off and roast it over the fire."
