Chapter 360 Experimental Taoism
"Devil, devil, you are the big devil!"

The "giant Taoist Wu" that Taoist Wu imagined in his own spiritual space was extremely miserable at this moment.

The flesh on his upper body was completely peeled off, blood was stuck on the white bones, his abdominal cavity was empty, and even his heart was pulled out and thrown away, turning into a group of Yu Fengxian.

But there was still a pool of blood where his heart was originally.

The blood lake was bubbling, and when the bubbles burst, the shadow of "Smiling Feather Phoenix Fairy" could be seen.

Many bubbles gather together, like cells, and still form new Feather Phoenix.

"Hehehe, I am the devil, the devil in your heart."

Thousands of Yu Fengxians around were laughing and talking in unison and in unison.

"Master Wu, you are also a master who has cultivated into a Yin God. Even though you are still a long way from becoming an immortal, you have not encountered the inner demon yet. But you must have heard of the inner demon, right?
In the records you heard about the inner demon, does it mean that you have to use the power of your mind to forcibly crush the inner demon?"

A thoughtful look gradually appeared on the pale and twisted face of the giant Taoist Wu.

“I was wrong, you are a demon, a demon in my heart, I can’t just crush you with my mental power.

The best way to control the inner demons is to kill the demonic thoughts in your mind, to have no thoughts, no desires, and to be empty and extinguished. "

He closed his eyes, focused all his thoughts, and no longer thought about Yu Fengxian.

"Gulp, gurgle--" The boiling blood lake in his chest gradually calmed down, the bubbles decreased, and finally disappeared completely. No Yu Fengxian appeared for a long time.

“Pa pa pa!” The Feather Phoenix Fairies clapped their hands softly and praised, “Yes, this is the attitude that a man of virtue should have.

Just now, you looked just like a young boy who has just entered the world.

When they encounter an enemy, they just fight them without thinking at all."

The giant Wu Taoist's skeletal torso grew internal organs and flesh again, returning to his original normal human appearance.

"Yu Fengxian, have you practiced magic?" he shouted angrily.

Although he was angry at this moment, he tried his best not to think about Yu Fengxian.

Being free of distracting thoughts does not mean having no thoughts at all, but rather being focused and concentrating one's thoughts on one thing.

When the mind is focused, distracting thoughts will naturally disappear; when the spirit is focused, delusions will naturally disappear.

If one can achieve true "emptiness of nature", then Taoist Wu is not a Taoist, but the "Buddha" of Lingshan.

He cannot be truly "empty", so there are still a small amount of "cancer cells" growing in his heart.

It’s just that the speed and scale are tens of millions times slower than before.

According to the previous speed of demonization, his mind and spirit would be exhausted in an instant, and he would completely become the "Demon Eyed Feather Phoenix Fairy".

At the current speed, he estimated that he could hold on for several months, or even several years. Of course, the premise was that the Demon Eye Feather Phoenix Fairy would not cause trouble. After all, it had already entered Wu Daoren's heart and had accumulated so many evil thoughts.

"Yes, I practiced the 'Daoist Magical Art', which is essentially still a kind of immortal martial arts." Xiao Yu smiled and nodded, "I reminded you at the beginning that you must destroy my martial arts will, and don't think of crushing me with your size.

The inner demon cannot be suppressed or destroyed.

To eliminate the evil thoughts at their root, I must destroy my martial arts will.

This martial arts will is the main god of immortal martial arts and magic skills.

You can defeat the martial arts master god, so you will definitely not be affected by evil skills or evil thoughts anymore."

Taoist Wu's expression changed several times, "What tricks do you have? Why are you telling me all this?"

She could have chosen not to remind him, not to let him regain his sanity, and just let him go crazy until he became mentally exhausted.

Xiao Yu said: "The magic skills are just being created and have not been officially used yet. You are the first one, and I want to use you to test the sword."

"You, you are indeed a devil, a big devil~~~" Taoist Wu shouted in shock and anger.

"Have you rested well? If you have, let's officially start." Xiaoyu said.

Taoist Wu's expression changed several times, and he suddenly softened his tone and said softly: "Fairy Yu, you and I have no grudges in the past and no hatred in the present. The one we are fighting for is nothing more than Zhu Yitai's daughter.

Even I have to admit that Zhu Yitao is a good official. You rescued his daughter, and you deserve the reputation of being a righteous man.

I am now completely convinced by you.

I admire your character as an ancient sage and I am in awe of your unparalleled magical powers.

I apologize to you, and you let me go, how about that? "

Xiao Yu asked, "Do you really think Zhu Yitao is a good official, or are you just lying to me?"

Taoist Wu raised his hand and swore, "I admit that I am not a good person, but I am not stupid. How can I not tell the difference between good people and bad people?"

Xiao Yu sighed, "Since they knew Zhu Yitao was a good official, why didn't they kill him and instead let his daughter be raped and humiliated?"

Taoist Wu looked a little embarrassed and said, "Zhu Yitao and I have no hatred or grudge against each other, this is true.

Tonight really is the perfect occasion.

Crown Prince Li Rongji hosted a banquet for the celebrities and heroes of Yingxiang Prefecture at the "Yonghe Palace", and I happened to be among them.

During the dinner, many people talked about Zhu Lingling. Seeing that the prince was also quite interested, I took the initiative to volunteer. Alas, all the mistakes were my fault.

I was ungrateful and insisted on taking the lead, which offended Fairy Yu.

But there's really nothing personal between us, is there?
There is absolutely no need to make such a fuss over such a small matter."

Xiaoyu already knew that Crown Prince Li Rongji had come to Yingxiang Mansion.

At the beginning of the month, Shaoyao and a group of nobles from Yingxiang Mansion took a boat to Luodu.

After congratulating the King of Shu on his birthday, he headed home the next day and had just returned two days ago.

Also arriving at the Heilong River wharf was Li Rongji, the Prince of Western Shu.

On the day she arrived at Yingxiang Mansion, the "Xima" of the Prince's Mansion brought the Prince's invitation to invite her to attend the banquet.

She has been mentally exhausted these past two days, wandering around every night and going to the streets every day looking for the "big villain". How could she have the energy to attend any banquet?
"Why is the crown prince of the current dynasty interested in Zhu Lingling? It can't be that Zhu Yitao is qualified enough to offend him, right?" Xiaoyu asked.

Taoist Wu lowered his eyes and said, "The prince did not send me to capture Zhu Lingling. It was just that Guan Chenghuang, who was sitting at the same table, suddenly exclaimed, saying that the three heads of Bu Sigui and a group of heroes from Yingxiang Mansion had failed one after another, and even Leng Wushuang was killed cleanly.

Everybody was discussing who was bold enough to do such a stupid thing as cutting himself off from Yingxiang Mansion.

The prince was also very curious, so I left my body and came here.

I was just investigating the situation. All conflicts are caused by misunderstandings. "Xiao Yu said calmly, "You, the 'immortal', are really worthless. The prince was just curious, and you came to fight me."

Taoist Wu hesitated and said, "I drank a few glasses of wine during the banquet and I am confused."

Xiao Yu said: "I always keep my word. I warned you before that if you take one step forward, your head will fall off.

Since you have taken more than one step, you must be prepared to fight me to the death."

Taoist Wu shouted excitedly: "We are all cultivators who have mastered great supernatural powers and have the hope of becoming immortals.

Just for Zhu Lingling, why would you go to this extent? Why would you go to this extent?!"

Xiao Yu shouted: "Don't let me look down on you, draw your sword!"

Taoist Wu had a conflicted expression, and suddenly said, "Actually, I'm trying to figure out the prince's intentions.

Cao Chun, the prince's uncle, is in charge of the 'Four Seasons Trading Company' on behalf of the prince.

Before Tianmen Town suffered a fire disaster, Four Seasons Trading Company stored a total of 32 pairs of old ginseng in the government warehouse, the youngest of which was 1,500 years old.

There are also hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and pine nuts from ten-thousand-year-old ancient pines.
All the various spiritual herbs and precious medicines together probably filled thirteen large wooden boxes."

Xiao Yu was shocked and asked, "Why are so many spiritual medicines kept in the government warehouse instead of being transported away immediately?"

Taoist Wu said: "For ordinary people, even a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is a family heirloom.

But for the prince, almost every quarter, larger quantities of spiritual medicines are gathered in Tianmen Town through the Four Seasons Trading Company on both sides of the Liusha River.

It was stored in the government office's warehouse because it was guarded by gods and was the safest place.

Haven’t you encountered the door god at the gate of the yamen?
Many wild Taoists and evil monks who disregard the law may have mastered Taoist techniques such as the art of moving objects and the five elements escape technique.

If you leave valuables in the Four Seasons Commercial Store and they are spotted and stolen by strange people, the shop assistants will be completely unaware.

There are door gods at the gate of the yamen, and the storehouse is protected by the god of the treasury, the god of Gongcao and the god of wealth.

Even for an immortal, it would be difficult to steal things from the warehouse quietly.

Even if it is something from the government storehouse, it can be easily tracked by the gods."

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "So, the Yingxiang government has more and more valuable magical herbs collected?"

Taoist Wu glanced at her and shook his head, saying, "Not necessarily. First of all, Prefect Wen monopolized the lawsuits, took bribes and perverted the law, making the government office a mess.
What I mean is that the "official aura" is not clear enough. There is heavy resentment and foul air in the government office. It is a place where filth and dirt are hidden, making even the "clear and spiritual" gods unwilling to approach.

Unlike the county government office in Tianmen Town, where the air is clear and bright, you can easily meet the two great gods Shentu and Yulei.

Besides, Prefect Wen himself is a corrupt official. Who would dare to put treasures in the warehouse he manages?

The Fire Dragon Burning Warehouse is not a skill exclusive to Shopkeeper Hu."

Xiao Yu sneered, "Zhu Yitao was honest, but it's a pity that he was forced to death by you. From now on, the Tianmen Town County Government's warehouse can no longer be used."

"Zhu Yitao's matter has nothing to do with me!" Taoist Wu shouted first, and then said with a slightly disdainful look: "Fairy Yu, you don't have to think too highly of Zhu Yitao.

What this world lacks the least is honest officials.

There are so many academies and scholars in the counties and prefectures of Western Shu.

Using the art of qigong, you can easily select a large group of upright and honest young heroes.

They specifically selected young scholars who had no talent for martial arts and came from ordinary backgrounds because they were easier to control.

Let him serve in the officialdom for a few years and then observe his temperament, or ask the City God to investigate his character, and you will know whether he is good or bad at a glance."

This method of selecting officials should be feasible to a certain extent, but Xiaoyu does not believe that it can be implemented normally.

"College students" who have just stepped out of the campus can maintain a relatively high degree of purity even if they are "student leaders" who have been hanging around in the student union for many years and have a good job application resume.

But once you step into society, once you enter the officialdom.
If he has been in the officialdom of Western Shu for a few years and has developed his personal connections, integrated into the circle and started to "progress", what's the point of investigating his character?
In other words, who dares to investigate the private affairs of the "progressive young cadres" in the circle?

Everyone knows that Magistrate Wen is a corrupt official.

But everyone also knows that Magistrate Wen will never be dismissed from office.

All the official positions are occupied by corrupt officials with connections. Even if honest officials are selected, where will they be placed?
"Okay, that's all. Just go to your death in peace." Xiaoyu didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore.

Taoist Wu was stunned for a moment, then became excited again, "I said so much, but you didn't listen?

Zhu Yi set is not worth much.

For the sake of his daughter Zhu Lingling, no matter who dies, let alone death, even if we are just injured, it is totally not worth it. "

Xiao Yu said disdainfully: "Do you know how valuable you are in my eyes?
In my mind, Zhu Yitao is just a familiar face, not even a friend, but better than a passerby on the street.

But if you compare your life with his, you are not even as valuable as one of his legs.

If I have to choose between chopping his legs and chopping your neck, I would rather chop you with my sword."

Taoist Wu was furious, "Yu Fengxian, you are insulting me too much! Do you really think that you can do anything to me just because you practice magic?"

Xiaoyu smiled, "Let's give it a try!"

After saying this, all the Yu Fengxians around "Jumbo Taoist Wu" disappeared in an instant.

A huge and rotten eyeball suddenly appeared above the head of "Giant Taoist Wu".

"I have already devoured nearly 30% of your spiritual power. If you cannot destroy my true martial arts, I will kill you instantly."

Every word and every sentence of the Rotten Giant Eye was like a tangible tree root, penetrating deeply into the body of the giant spirit Wu Dao Ren, drilling into his flesh and all the way into his heart.

"Ahhh~~~" The giant Taoist Wu scratched his face with one hand and used the other hand to dig into his chest desperately, until blood came out and the flesh was rotten.

His face was also covered with scratches.

The skin on his face became fair and delicate, his face shape gradually shrank from a square fat face to an oval face, and his facial features also became delicate and pretty - it was Xiaoyu's face!
His body also changed from being short and fat to being slender yet agile.

Currently, only a small half of the face and a small half of the body are changing, and most of the face and body remain the same.

"Please, please, let me go~~~"

"Idiot, what's the point of just begging for mercy? I'm determined to be the devil, you should give up your fantasy and fight hard!"

Xiaoyu's scolding could be heard from the mouth of the other half of his body.
