I use my supernatural powers to prove my immortality

Zhong Lixiao snapped his fingers, and the lionworms that he had subdued for many years instantly shot out.

Wherever the black light transformed by the lion worm passed, everything seemed to be eaten by worms, and immediately began to decay and collapse.

Even space seemed to have a new "wormhole" because of this.

When everyone on the Nether Bone Demon Ship saw this, they were all stunned.

Did they really come to the underworld with fellow Taoist Zhonghuang to adventure and search for treasure?
How come the maggot, ahem, black snake, that Brother Zhonghuang subdued has such powerful potential and power?

Not to mention the people on the Nether Bone Demon Ship, even the Rotten Monk had a gleam in his eyes at this moment.

There are shocks, complexities, and an indescribable enlightenment!

It seemed that the Master had arranged for him to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens until now, as if he was waiting for the destined person in front of him.

And the lionworms that can never be eliminated from his body, the purpose of their existence may also be to wait for the destined person in front of them.

In the dark, there is God's will.

The rotten monk was seen with his hands clasped together, and he still had a strong sense of decay on his body, but in the dark light of decay, a certain light of enlightenment slowly began to spread again.

It is a bit like the Buddha's self-sacrifice of cutting off his flesh to feed the eagle. If I don't go to hell, who will? No matter how much suffering I endure, as long as I can finally become a brick and stone for the restoration of darkness and light in the world, all the suffering and sacrifice will be enough.

The Rotten Monk's body was still rotten, but he exuded an immortal gold that seemed to be reborn in the face of death, as if he had really crawled out of hell.

Withered bones turn into dust, rotten flesh turns into green apples.

A lotus moon suddenly emerges from the source of my heart, shining through ignorance to reveal the truth.

Today I know that I am myself, and my true self is the real me.
The Rotten Monk clasped his hands together and muttered to himself, but the Taoist rhyme symbolizing the rebirth of decay continued to emerge.

It became brighter and brighter, as if the rotten monk had successfully captured the bright light from the other side and successfully taken a further step on the path to enlightenment.

At this moment, even Zhong Lixiao was quite surprised.

The truth is simple, and many truths in the world are very simple.

The same is true for the principle of decay and rebirth. Not to mention practitioners, even ordinary people, who doesn't understand the principle of decay and rebirth, and turning into spring mud to protect flowers?

but.

Knowing is easy, but doing is difficult. How many people in the world can truly survive from death like the rotten monk?
Not to mention, the Rotten Monk is the Lord of the Underworld, and the power of decay and decay has almost marinated him.

But even so, the rotten monk was able to realize the Buddha's heart in the decay, and even had a vague feeling of "no attachment to the mind" of Buddhism.

When the mind has no place to stay and nothing to cling to, it can achieve transcendence.

There is no doubt that the people present are the small group standing at the top of the world pyramid.

Naturally, everyone could understand what the Rotten Monk's current situation meant. There was surprise in their eyes, and their envy and respect were beyond words.

In the past, they always felt that the Buddhist theory of “Seven Places to Conquer the Mind” was a bit boastful.

It now seems that if Buddhism is practiced to a high level, it is possible to transcend the world at the spiritual level.

At least for now, it seems that the Rotten Monk has a body that is somewhat in line with the Rotten Avenue, but his mind seems to have transcended the Rotten Avenue.

Everyone present did not waste time, but carefully sensed the Rotten Monk's current condition from all angles.

Even if you don’t understand it now, just remember it silently.

If one could achieve a sudden enlightenment one day, perhaps one could achieve a breakthrough in one's cultivation level.

One has to admit that there is a reason why everyone on the Nether Bone Demon Ship has been able to reach this level of cultivation.

After a cup of tea, the bright mood on the rotten monk disappeared.

Everyone present said respectfully, "Congratulations, Master. Congratulations, Master. You have found new life in the midst of corruption, captured the bright light in the other shore, and made great progress in your cultivation."

As for the most exciting ones, of course they belong to Ratnakūta Buddha and Vajra Indestructible Buddha.

To put it bluntly, the current state of the rotten monk is an example for them to strive to cultivate in the future.

"Congratulations, Master Uncle, congratulations, Master Uncle, for realizing your mind, breaking through attachments, and gaining enlightenment."

There was also a smile on the Rotten Monk's face. At his level, it would be really not easy to make further progress in cultivation.

As long as you can take a crucial step forward, your cultivation will surely see great progress.

The Rotten Monk believed that with his current level of strength, he would definitely be ranked among the top even among the Lords of the Underworld.

And all this was brought by Zhong Lixiao!

At this moment, the Rotten Monk understood more and more why so many Taoist masters in the world would unanimously choose this boy.

Some people are born with a good eye for chess, and cannot be judged by common sense.

The Rotten Monk smiled and said, "Donor Zhong, you saved me not long ago, and now it's my turn to save you. The Rotten Monk's way has successfully brought new life out of decay and decay, and now the Monk will share his new seeds of enlightenment with Donor Zhong."

The Rotten Monk changed the way he addressed Zhong Lixiao, which also shows the change in Zhong Lixiao's identity in his eyes.

Half a day later.

Zhong Lixiao successfully refined the Rotten Monk's decaying new Dao Seed, and skillfully pressed it into the magical power map.

In an instant, Zhong Lixiao felt that the whole world seemed to be a little different.

His connection with the underworld increased dramatically, and most importantly, he once again regained the feeling of being in the world of the living where he could feel the surging power of the avenue filling his body at every moment.

Zhong Lixiao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt like he had unlocked a golden lock and released a dragon.

With the power of the Rotten Monk's Avenue of Decay and Rebirth constantly nourishing him, he will almost never lack mana in the underworld.

If you want to do anything else, even if you have to face the Lord of the Underworld, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.

While refining this underworld seed, Zhong Lixiao also deeply understood what the Rotten Monk had said not long ago - he was very weak, and the Lord of the Underworld was very weak.

In fact, it has been proven to be true, and the destruction of the way of heaven in the underworld is really serious.

In Zhong Lixiao's opinion, the way of the underworld really feels a bit like "the collapse of rituals and music".

The "rituals" that were once orderly and powerful now seem to have become a piece of empty paper.

Perhaps it was because he had refined the Confucian Dao Seed of the Saint Master, Zhong Lixiao was indeed quite dissatisfied with the sense of the collapse of rituals and music in the underworld.

However, Zhong Lixiao naturally understood the principle of not being too proud or too excited, so he suppressed this dissatisfaction completely in his heart.

He still has a bronze life lamp hanging above his head. Time is running out, and the underworld's rejection of him will only become stronger and stronger.

From this we can see that even order and rules have different levels.

The existence of the bronze life lamp is undoubtedly the "main rope" of the highest level above the order and moral principles, and is the key to defining the order of yin and yang.

Zhong Lixiao seemed to be lost in thought, and his understanding of the bronze life lamp became clearer.

It even reminded him of some insights he had gained when he was compiling knotted chains not long ago.

As long as he is given some more time, he will definitely be able to emulate the Bronze Life Lamp and compile a more powerful contract knot.

The Rotten Monk, with the "Contract Knot" wrapped around his wrist, successfully joined the group of people from the Yang World, including Zhong Lixiao.

It's not just because of the sense of security brought by the contract knot, but also the strong guarantee brought by the mysterious little girl Jin.

Because not long ago, perhaps because of the Rotten Monk's enlightenment, the mysterious little girl Jin changed her previous disdain, and under the witness of Zhong Lixiao, the middleman, she successfully snatched a ray of mysterious energy from the Rotten Monk.

This kind of weird thing would never have been easily accomplished without the "middleman" Zhong Lixiao's guarantee, who even took the initiative to show the seven-story pagoda to further gain the trust of the rotten monk.

Although the mysterious little girl Jhin is cunning and powerful, the Rotten Monk, as the lord of the underworld, would never take the risk of allowing a strong man like Jhin to snatch the mysterious energy from him.

Only with the mediation of Zhong Lixiao, a powerful "middleman", can such an agreement be reached peacefully.

After Jhin snatched some mysterious energy from his body, the Rotten Monk did not feel any difference.

but.

This mysterious little girl named Jhin seems to have grown significantly, and even gained a lot of wisdom.

This inevitably made everyone marvel and become more curious!

Who is the real identity of this little girl named Jin? What is the mysterious energy that she took from the rotten monk?
When everyone at the scene heard Zhong Lixiao's guess that she was the Queen Mother Hou Tu, they were all stunned!
What’s even more incredible is that it seems that Zhong Lixiao’s guess actually makes some sense.

When they thought about the possible identity of the mysterious little girl, everyone present couldn't help but become more excited.

If the guess is true, then all their current actions have a certain sense of justice.
Another half day later.

The Rotten Monk said excitedly, "If fellow Taoists want to seize an opportunity similar to that of the Corpse Demon Emperor and the Yin Demon Emperor, the great monk suggests that you prioritize attacking the Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Skeleton Soldiers."

"???"

Everyone looked at the Rotten Monk with curiosity, wanting to know his reasons.

Could it be that this Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers has a deep grudge against the Rotten Monk?
If so, then it is only natural.

However, if the Rotten Monk and the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Skeletons really have an irreconcilable hatred, then it would definitely be huge good news for everyone present.

When facing an enemy, one must be willing to risk one's life.

Even if they can't eat the meat, they can still drink the soup!
The Rotten Monk said seriously, "The Great Monk will not hide it from you. The Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers is a close friend of the Great Monk, and they are inseparable."

Everyone present was stunned, and some were surprised.

Really good friends?
Isn't the monk saying the opposite of what he means?
The rotten monk put his hands together, and a faint light emanated from his body, giving him a sacred feeling of saving the world.

"Like the great monk, Wan Hai Bing Zu is a very determined and pragmatic person. His origin is even older than that of the great monk. At the very least, he is a Bing Zu who fell into the human world before the heyday of Buddhism."

Following the Rotten Monk's explanation, everyone present finally had a detailed understanding of the Ten Thousand Bones Weapon Ancestor mentioned by the big monk.

This Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones of Soldiers is absolutely a ruthless villain. Even if he falls into hell, he is definitely a ghost king.

The fierce aura from his body alone is enough to shock the entire underworld.

Different from the Rotten Monk who lives a carefree life, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones of Soldiers is a general in the true sense of the word.

Not only is he powerful, but he also loves fighting.

In this underworld, almost all forces with some strength have been conquered by the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones.

He is a very powerful and arrogant person who likes to stir up trouble.

Not only is he tyrannical, but he is also fearless of death and is even proficient in the art of military formations.

After fighting for so many years, Wan Hai Bing Zu has been recruiting soldiers, but he only has the most elite 10,000 core elite troops under his command.

The battle loss rate is evident!
Upon hearing this, everyone present had a distorted expression on their faces.

You rotten monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are you sure you are really giving us advice? Rather than deliberately deceiving them to touch the tiger's butt?

The Rotten Monk said seriously, "Everything the Great Monk said was for the greater good."

"It is true that the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones is a poor and tyrannical person in the underworld, but there is one thing that the great monk admires very much, and that is the spirit of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones who is unyielding and unwilling to give in."

What is this statement?
Everyone listened silently, and with the Rotten Monk's explanation, everyone present finally gained some understanding.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones is too ancient, and the aura of decay and old age on his body is many times stronger than that of the Rotten Monk.

but.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones is definitely the one among the underworld lords known to the Rotten Monk who most wants to have another fierce battle with the enemies from outer space.

He had been preparing for war year after year, never taking off his armor and always ready to fight at any moment. However, due to the separation between the living and the dead, the ancestor of all soldiers had actually always lacked an opportunity.

If anyone could give Wan Hai Bing Zu a chance to return to the battlefield, Wan Hai Bing Zu would definitely not mind dying on the battlefield for his benefactor.

If this enemy on the battlefield were replaced by an enemy from outer space, Wan Hai Bing Zu would still have no scruples even if he died on the battlefield and never reincarnated.

He will even be grateful to the benefactor who gave him this opportunity!

Zhong Lixiao and others were quite shocked when they heard this.

The Rotten Monk is already old enough, having been born in the most prosperous era of Buddhism. Even the God Emperor would be just a junior when he came.

but.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones is actually even older than the Rotten Monk. Doesn't that mean he must have existed in ancient times when he was alive?
In this way, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers has survived the eternal darkness when the underworld collapsed more than once.

The Rotten Monk said righteously, "You are absolutely the outliers among outliers and the variables among variables to the Great Underworld."

"Donor Zhong is an extremely rare chess player. As long as you can withstand the attack of Wan Hai Bing Zu and confirm that you are qualified to be his master, and then the great monk can mediate and persuade Wan Hai Bing Zu to join us, there may be some possibility."

At this point, a hint of fanaticism ignited in the Rotten Monk's eyes.

"With the tyrannical army of the Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers Ancestor and His Excellency Jin, who is suspected to be the Queen Mother Hou Tu, we may be able to restore order in the underworld!"

To be honest, everyone, including Zhong Lixiao, was deeply moved.

Who is our friend and who is our enemy is always a question that needs to be clearly identified first.

Once they can really win over Wan Hai Bing Zu, they might really be able to achieve great things in this underworld.

However, even the rotten monk used the words "poor and arrogant" and "fearless of death" to describe the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Bones Army.
Can they really withstand such an existence?
Everyone present looked at Zhong Lixiao. At this point, he was the only one who could make the decision.

Zhong Lixiao thought about it again and again, and said, "Master, please tell us more about the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones."

Upon hearing this, the Rotten Monk immediately smiled and said, "Of course it's possible."

He immediately began to talk eloquently about Wan Hai Bing Zu's personality, catchphrases, and ways of doing things, and even included some of his confidants, commonly used formations, magic weapons, and other means.

The more everyone present listened, the weirder their expressions became!
Judging from what the Rotten Monk said, he and the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Skeletons might actually be good friends.

The reason is simple: the Rotten Monk knows the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones too well.

Even Zhong Lixiao couldn't help but recall a famous joke from his previous life - if you are a brother, come and chop me up.

The Rotten Monk naturally noticed the strangeness in everyone's expressions, but his face remained calm, without any guilt for dragging his brothers into trouble.

It seemed as if he was really saving his brothers from danger, and no one could deny his psychological quality.

"The weapon of the Ten Thousand Bones Weapon Ancestor is called the Heaven Shaking Hammer. It was forged by the Ten Thousand Bones Weapon Ancestor using the essence of the endless bones of the underworld and the essence of all kinds of divine gold from the underworld. It is extremely heavy. If it is combined with the Ten Thousand Bones Heaven Shaking Array he created, its power is simply unbelievable."

When everyone present heard this, their expressions changed again and again.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers is already so powerful, and he can also coordinate military formations and cooperate with all kinds of Yin and Ming magic weapons. How can we attack him?

The Rotten Monk laughed and said, "The Great Monk and the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones are good friends. He has refined a cassock of the Emptiness of All Laws, which can more or less restrain the Heaven Shaking Hammer of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones."

"In addition, the great monk's Vajra Pestle and Netherworld Purple Gold Bowl can more or less restrain the many magic weapons of the Ten Thousand Bones Shaking Heaven Formation. Maybe they can help you a little when the time comes."

When everyone present heard this, their faces became somewhat distorted and their hearts became tense.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones and the Rotten Monk are truly good friends. Their friendship is truly touching!

Zhong Lixiao nodded and said, "If we can restrain the Heaven Shaking Hammer and the Ten Thousand Bones Heaven Shaking Formation, then we can indeed fight."

"I also have a military formation here, it's called the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Zhu Xian Formation'. If we Taoists work together, we might be able to fight against the Wan Hai Bing Zu's Wan Hai Shaking Heaven Formation."

Strictly speaking, this Zhoutian Xingdou Zhuxian Formation is not particularly suitable for use in the underworld.

After all, there are no stars in the sky to lend strength in the underworld, so its power is inevitably greatly reduced.

What's worse, if Zhong Lixiao had not obtained the Rotten New Dao Seed from the Rotten Monk, he would not have taken out this formation, and he didn't even have the idea of confronting the Ten Thousand Skeletons Weapon Ancestor head-on.

but.

With the blessing of the Rotten Monk's rotten new Dao Seed, Zhong Lixiao's magic power is inexhaustible. He can use it to activate the Dao Seed of the Star Lord's Ten Thousand Stars Avenue, and then use it to turn it into the core eye of this formation.

Using this formation as a link, connecting him, the Rotten Monk, many gods, and even the mysterious little girl Jin, he might be able to defeat the Lord of Ten Thousand Bones.

If the plan succeeds, their trip to the underworld might really be able to open a new chapter.

As for the soldiers needed to set up this formation, they can completely use the many steps of the magical power "King of Martial Arts" and then coordinate with the clay puppets learned from the geomancer to set up the formation.

Even if we are still short of some manpower, don’t we still have the many refined corpses of the Demon Emperor?
With so many incarnations of gods, Taoist soldiers, and Yellow Turban strongmen present, there must be some of them.

Sure enough, upon hearing the solution proposed by Zhong Lixiao, many of the gods present suddenly became excited.

Next one, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Bones Soldiers! (End of this chapter)
