Fellow Taoists, please respect yourself.

Chapter 396: Falling into a trap
A human body with a snake tail!

It's extremely weird, like a demon, with a snake tail in a human body that makes people resist it from the bottom of their hearts!

Jiang Lin widened his eyes slightly, and the surprise in his eyes was obvious.

"Ah……"

From the face of the Luoshui God, which was lowered again and covered by thick black hair, came a laugh that sounded both self-deprecating and panic-stricken. It was extremely weak, but it woke Jiang Lin up.

Jiang Lin frowned, coming back to his senses from his initial surprise.

He slowly said, "In the past, the Taoist Taiqing was reborn as Nuwa and was reborn into the Huaxu clan of the human race. She is a blood relative of Fuxi, and the two call each other brother and sister."

"Later, in order to sense the way of heaven and follow the will of heaven, the two of them transformed into human bodies with snake tails, the man was yang and the woman was yin, with their tails entwined, using the rhyme of Nuwa's Taoism to comprehend the rules of heaven and earth."

“That’s why His Majesty Fuxi was able to attain enlightenment, and that’s why Nuwa was able to successfully comprehend the Way of Heaven and understand her own mission, and to straighten out the sky that had tilted to the northwest due to the collapse of the Demon Court.”

(The Nuwa patching up the sky here adopts the world view of Journey to the West. In the world view of Journey to the West, Laojun is the ancestor of the creation of the world, and it is also Laojun who manifests the incarnation of Nuwa and refines stones to patch up the sky.)
(For details, please refer to the 35th chapter of the original Journey to the West, where King Silver Horn mentions the purple gold gourd.)
Listening to Jiang Lin's words, Luo Shuishen didn't make any movement. She just stood there quietly with her head down. She had no choice but to stand there. The tight chains bound her almost airtightly.

It can be imagined that in the countless years of the past, from the ascension of His Majesty Fuxi in the late ancient times to the present day, she has been enduring such torture.

There was no such thing as Fuxi's eldest daughter who was so obsessed with the beauties of the human world that she was unwilling to ascend to heaven with her father. She was even made into a negative example by some people in later generations.

Yes, there is only one daughter who willingly sacrificed herself for her father.

"But, that kind of incarnation is, after all, just the manifestation of the Dao rhyme. It is a unique manifestation that is close to the Heavenly Dao."

Jiang Lin sighed in his heart and continued, "Logically speaking, this kind of incarnation can be controlled at will and will not have any impact on others."

"but……"

"Looking at your current condition, I'm afraid that's not the case."

Jiang Lin had read the classics of the Black Law Division before. Among the contents about ancient human beings, there was a picture of Fuxi and Nuwa mating.

At just one glance, Jiang Lin was shocked, because the intertwined appearance of the two snake tails was almost identical to the DNA spiral in his current memory!

In that picture, there is a hint of weirdness and barbarity unique to the ancient wilderness.

But this hint of weirdness and barbarity is completely eliminated by the more essential explanation of the origin of the human race and the holiness of Fuxi and Nuwa themselves.

However, Jiang Lin also said just now that this is just an external manifestation of His Majesty Fuxi getting close to and understanding the Way of Heaven.

It will never bring harm to future generations.

Cultivation emphasizes following the will of heaven and embracing the Tao. His Majesty Fuxi is almost the originator and practitioner of this concept.

This definitely cannot be something that poses a hidden danger, otherwise, since His Majesty Fuxi, the vast majority of practitioners in the Three Realms have been on the wrong path.

But, if this was not the reason, then what caused His Majesty Fuxi's eldest daughter to become like this?

His Majesty Fuxi and Lady Nuwa have human bodies with snake tails, full of the glory of the human race. They carry the explanation and truth of the origin of the human race and even all living things. Their holiness and Taoist charm need no explanation.

But at this moment, the human body and snake tail of the Luoshui God in front of Jiang Lin were not like that.

It is weird, wild and strange, and has an aura that makes the human race uncomfortable.

"Your Highness."

Jiang Lin was confused and said frankly: "Since King Yu sent me here, you also agreed that I should come to you and witness your most unbearable scene."

"I guess I believe in Your Majesty King Yu, and believe that I have a way to relieve your pain."

At this point, Jiang Lin paused and said softly: "To be honest, although I have some secrets, I really don't know why His Majesty King Yu has so much confidence in me. I believe that I can help you out of your predicament."

"But, since you believe in King Yu, please believe in me too."

"After all these years, no, maybe from the beginning, you knew why you became like this, right?"

Jiang Lin's voice and question made Luo Shuishen tremble subconsciously, and the tight chains made the cold and clanking sound again.

The answer is self-evident. The God of Luoshui is indeed very clear why he has become like this.

But she didn't say anything, just remained silent. Jiang Lin didn't urge her, but just waited quietly.

After a long time, the soft voice sounded.

"I knew it from the beginning, I always knew it."

The God of Luo River raised his head again, with crystal clear light in the corners of his eyes.

It was the first time she looked directly at Jiang Lin, and she completely saw the strangeness on her face.

This seemed to give Luoshui God some courage, or perhaps it was just a desperate move.

She spoke softly, "Father and aunt both have the Dao Principle of a human body with a snake's tail. Just as you said, they can control it as they please, and it will not affect others, especially their bloodline descendants."

"But that's the general situation..."

Luoshui God smiled sadly as he slowly said, "When my father rose to power, the human race had just emerged from barbarism and ignorance. At that time, although the demon court was in decline, the demon race still existed."

"The human race led by my father became the protagonist of the world, replacing the demon race. It carried the destiny of the three realms and laid the foundation for the human race to dominate the three realms in the future."

"So the demon race was angry, because the emergence of the human race almost deprived the demon race of the possibility of regaining its glory."

"Then the demon race's destiny rioted, and countless anger turned into resentment, wanting to haunt my father forever and make him never have peace."

"Blessings and disasters go hand in hand. When the human race takes the position of the protagonist of heaven and earth, it will inevitably face a counterattack from its predecessor. This was also predicted by the sages of the human race."

"Originally, the one who should bear all this should be the king of a tribe, and the king should bear it, and the king will be willing to do it. Compared with the rise of the entire human race, the suffering of one person is insignificant."

"But the Human Emperor is too powerful. The human race's great fortune is so glorious that no ghosts or evil spirits can escape."

"then……"

Having said that, Luoshui God looked at his snake tail, and the bitterness at the corners of his mouth became more intense.

Jiang Lin continued with a complicated expression, "So, this hatred, this curse, this resentment of the demon race towards the human race, fell on you."

"Luck is entangled with cause and effect. The counterattack of the demon race's luck has alienated His Majesty Fuxi's human body and snake tail, and turned this original Dao rhyme appearance into the true appearance of the demon race. It is attached to your body like a carbuncle on the tarsal bone."

Luoshui God nodded slightly and said with self-mockery: "The eldest daughter of the first emperor in the world is a monster with a human body and a snake tail..."

Jiang Lin remained silent.

The curse and cause and effect of the demon race's fate are not that simple.

Perhaps, people would regard this as a sacrifice and would therefore be full of respect for the sacrifice of the Luo River God.

But this is unlikely to happen, or rather, the vast majority of humans would not think so.

Because humans will always hate demons.

The demon curse on the Luoshui Goddess will make all human beings feel disgust and hatred towards her from the bottom of their hearts.

This kind of disgust and hatred is the most terrifying thing about the demon curse.

Being an outcast is the most painful punishment for a person.

The Goddess of Luo Water is alone in the Three Realms. There is no place for her in the human race, nor in the demon race. This extreme loneliness is the most miserable and terrifying curse that the Goddess of Luo Water has faced over the countless years.

"I have the instincts of a demon, and a cruel and bloodthirsty desire is stirring in my heart."

The voice of Luoshui God was still very soft, but the misery and richness in it seemed to overflow.

"So, I can only treat myself this way..."

Jiang Lin looked at the chains on Luo Shuishen and slowly raised his hand.

'Zheng! '

The sharp sword energy rushed straight towards Luo Shui God and cut off all the iron chains on Luo Shui God's body.

The God of Luoshui was not careful for a moment and fell to the ground from the position where he was tied up with chains. He looked at Jiang Lin in a daze.

The devil's nature was stirring in her heart, and she might suddenly attack and hurt people at any time, or even eat raw meat and drink blood.

"Now I know why King Yu thought I could do it."

Jiang Lin was not worried at all. Instead, he came directly to the side of Luo Shuishen, stretched out his hand to her, grinned, and said, "The demon race no longer exists. The demon race's luck has collapsed, and the demon race's ancestral home has collapsed. I did it."

The God of Luo River suddenly looked up and stared at Jiang Lin blankly.

In that rather heartless smile, the shining white teeth were dazzling. "So, the curse on you is now just a floating duckweed without roots. All it takes is..."

Jiang Lin raised his hand towards Luo Shuishen. Luo Shuishen hesitated for a moment and placed his hand in Jiang Lin's.

And the next moment, Luo Shuishen only felt a weight on his hand.

An exquisite, palm-sized tripod-shaped incense burner appeared in the hands of the Luo River God.

The incense burner has the ancient rust unique to bronze, which makes this originally exquisite incense burner look ancient and heavy.

"This thing is called the Removal of Filth."

Jiang Lin said with a smile.

At the same time, the Seven Souls Technique was activated!

‘Buzz! ! ’

The obscure, almost invisible power burst out from the Purifying Incense Burner as Jiang Lin's Seven Souls Technique was put into practice.

"Well……"

Luo Shuishen's body trembled, and his already big eyes widened even more.

The long-lost, unfamiliar feeling of comfort and relaxation gradually emerged in her body.

The fate and cause and effect of the demon race turned into a resentful curse, which, like a carbuncle on the tarsal bone, clung to the body of the God of Luo River for countless years.

This curse, which was supposed to be invisible, was so huge that it even had actual weight.

It's like carrying a mountain.

But now, the ease and comfort as if he had nothing returned to the body of the Luoshui God again.

The God of Luo River couldn't help but shed tears.

In a daze, she saw that in her hand, above the delicate yet heavy incense burner, there were streams of sticky and strange black qi floating.

In the dark space, a woman with a human body and a snake tail was half-sitting on the ground, with a half-squatting man in front of her.

The two men faced each other, both raised their hands, holding an incense burner in their hands.

From the incense burner, there spread out strange black Qi that was three times thicker than the pitch-black space.

The embodiment of the demon curse.

This was the demon race's initial resentment towards the human race. They resented the human race for taking away the demon race's foundation in the Three Realms and taking away the demon race's living space.

This was originally a curse that should have been borne by the Human Emperor, but in the end, because the Human Emperor was too powerful, it fell on his daughter.

The demonized body and alienated mind are all due to this curse.

The God of Luoshui stared blankly at the spreading black energy, which gradually gathered into an ominous black cloud in the air.

This black cloud seemed to have its own life, wriggling and unscrupulously displaying endless malice and resentment.

Luo Shuishen's body couldn't help but tremble. She had been tortured by this curse for too long.

Before, I had tried to extract the curse from my body. My father was able to do it, but even he couldn't do it so cleanly and thoroughly.

The curse of the demon race has become closely entangled with the cause and effect of Luoshui God.

More importantly, as long as the demon clan still exists and as long as the demon clan's luck continues, the curse in Luoshui God's body will continue and there is no possibility of it being completely extracted.

All of this combined created a situation where even His Majesty Fuxi was helpless.

But now, everything has changed.

The demon race no longer exists, the demon race's luck has collapsed, the ancestral temple has been destroyed, and the curse has no source.

The seemingly gentle but in fact extremely domineering incense burner was also thoroughly cleansing the curse in the body of the Luoshui God from the most fundamental level.

This is a force that is totally unreasonable, and it seems to have exceeded the limits of "Tao"...

Luoshui God thought silently in his heart.

Time passed little by little, and accompanied by a happy groan from Luo Shuishen, the last trace of black energy in the body was extracted.

The dark clouds in the sky were already as big as an acre of land.

'laugh……'

This materialized curse seemed to have intelligence. It swept and surged, transforming into pitch-black steel needles, trying to return to the body of Luoshui God.

Seeing this scene, Luo Shuishen looked ruthless, and was determined to do everything he could to stop it, even if the price was his own life.

The daughter of the Human Emperor never feared death, but was only afraid that she would not be able to die as a human.

The reason why she didn't die before was because if she died, the curse would spread to other descendants of Fuxi according to cause and effect.

But now it is different. This curse has become rootless and has left her as its carrier. Without the stimulation of the source of the demon clan's destiny, it can no longer persecute others according to cause and effect.

Therefore, the worst result is that the curse will disappear when the God of Luo River dies.

This is completely acceptable to the God of Luo River.

But at this moment, Jiang Lin stood up.

He looked up at the curse formed from the resentment and hatred of the ancient demon clan and blew a breath gently.

Taiyi's pure yang energy gushed out, and with just a breath, the sticky black energy turned into meaningless gray matter and dissipated.

The God of Luo River stared at Jiang Lin blankly.

Jiang Lin lowered his head, grinned, and said, "I refined a golden crow."

Using the pure yang energy of the Golden Crow to destroy the curse of the demon clan is such a professional match. The emperor took the lead in surrendering, what can his subjects do?

After that, Jiang Lin extended his hand to Luo Shuishen and said with a smile: "Now, you can stand up as a pure human."

Luo Shuishen subconsciously took that hand, followed the force, and stood up somewhat awkwardly.

After she stood up, she staggered and involuntarily put most of her weight on that hand.

The God of Luo River looked down.

The pale, weird snake tail disappeared, replaced by a pair of slender, well-proportioned legs with a healthy pink color.

"Congratulations, you have finally escaped from the cage. From now on, you can..."

Before Jiang Lin could finish his words, he felt a sinking sensation on his body.

The God of Luo River hugged him tightly.

Jiang Lin subconsciously wanted to push her away, but he heard the sobbing of the daughter of the Human Emperor who had her head buried in his neck.

"thanks, thanks……"

Jiang Lin's expression relaxed, he slowly put down his hand, patted Luoshuishen on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "From now on, you will be like a dragon entering the sea, without any shackles."

…………

On the bank of Luo River.

King Yu watched the Luo River surging. First, Jiang Lin appeared, followed by a woman in a snow-white dress who looked graceful and extremely bright.

The woman smiled at King Yu and saluted with perfect manners.

"Feng Luo, the eldest daughter of Fuxi clan from Huaxu tribe of the human race, greets His Majesty King Yu."

Seeing the Water God Luo, no, Feng Luo appeared in front of him as a human, King Yu nodded with satisfaction. He was about to praise Jiang Lin, but suddenly found out...

The eldest daughter of Emperor Fuxi, the eldest princess of the human race, even when she was paying her respects, her eyes seemed to be fixed on the Taoist in black beside her.

As a person who has been through it all, as the Emperor of Man, and as an experienced old man, he knew very well what that look meant.

King Yu was filled with alarm.

Oh no! My pigs haven't been put into the pen yet!
