Demon Lord Tang Dynasty

Inside the tent, wisps of misty air rose up.

As the scroll before Gao Yi's eyes slowly unfolded, a stunning image appeared on the map: a physician's robes fluttering, gracefully dancing.

A pleasant fragrance inexplicably wafted from the surroundings.

The feeling was as if the figures on the painting were about to step out of the scroll and descend to earth at any moment.

Unfortunately, this breathtaking scene lasted only a few breaths.

Soon, all the strange phenomena around them disappeared, leaving only the scroll floating quietly in front of them, like a transparent screen.

One day, he was transported to another world and fell directly into a den of dragons and tigers, becoming fish on someone else's chopping board.

This kind of start is definitely not good; it could even be described as hell.

Faced with this situation, Gao Yi did not panic or rush to plan his escape.

After all, this is the world of The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, and the surrounding Dharma protectors, even the maids and servants, are all skilled in martial arts.

Making any rash moves will only hasten his death.

Of course, the most important thing is the painting in front of us.

This is why he remained calm and collected, even accepting all those unknown pills of dubious origin without hesitation.

This scroll has remained within Gao Yi's body ever since he transmigrated.

In other words, this is his cheat code, and it's also the legendary cheat code that every time traveler is said to have.

Gao Yi raised his eyes and looked at the painting in front of him.

The ancient scroll floated in mid-air, moving without wind, just like ripples on a lake.

But apart from that, there is nothing else on the scroll.

It's like a wordless book.

Gao Yi was clearly already familiar with this situation, and there was no disappointment in his eyes.

He stretched out his palm and gently stroked forward.

The moment his palm touched the ancient scroll, the previously calm scroll suddenly began to move.

It's like a stone falling into a lake, creating ripples.

Moreover, the ripples gradually grew larger and larger, spreading outwards like invisible waves.

In the center of the ripples, a portrait slowly emerges.

She was a stunningly beautiful woman wearing a green dress, with a smile playing on her lips.

The image ripples back and forth with the undulations of the ancient scroll, making it look not like a painting at all, but like a beautiful woman standing in front of you, smiling and waving gently at you.

As the portrait appeared, several large characters slowly emerged above the ancient scroll.

Hundred Flowers Album

The three ancient characters are like an eternal mark.

Below the three large characters, there is a line of smaller characters that are barely visible: "Pluck ninety-nine flowers, and ascend straight to the heavens beyond."

Gao Yi's lips twitched involuntarily.

Yes, this is Gao Yi's cheat code. At first glance, the three characters "Hundred Flowers Manual" do seem somewhat similar to those of the amorous young master Hou Xibai. However, when you add the following characters, it becomes completely different. How should I put it? This doesn't seem like anything serious.

Gao Yi shook his head helplessly. He was a model youth of the new century, a gentleman of integrity. How come after transmigrating, he ended up in a shoe cult and a womanizer, going further and further astray?

While lamenting the injustice of the Great Dao, Gao Yi's gaze also fell upon the portrait below the scroll.

On the soles of the woman's feet in the painting, there is also a line of small writing:

The first flower to bloom

哺: Food reaches the heavens—to eat everything under the heavens, one's belly can hold the heavens.

Yes, this is what Gao Yi gained after obtaining the cheat system.

Although Gao was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to take that step against his conscience under the coercion of the evil cheat.

This ability to connect with the heavens through food is the power that the ancient scrolls have given him in return.

This is why he dared to take those blood-red pills without hesitation.

He didn't know if he could devour the heavens, but poisons and narcotics would have no effect on him.

Moreover, the strongest aspect of this ability is the word "容" (rong), which means digestion.

Judging from its characteristics alone, it does resemble a unique skill from a certain anime.

However, his ability to eat in the heavens was not a skill, but rather something that was directly integrated into his body, becoming his innate ability.

Grains and cereals, as well as precious and poisonous medicines, can all be transformed into energy that nourishes the body once they enter the stomach.

It was precisely because of this ability that the elixirs sent by the Dharma Protector with ulterior motives became his greatest asset.

Each blood pill he swallowed continuously increased his physique and strength.

Moreover, as his physical strength increased, a unique energy slowly emerged within his body.

From outside to inside, true energy is generated by itself.

This is the path taken by some people in the martial arts world who only practice external martial arts.

Gao Yi did not practice external martial arts. However, as he continued to take drugs, his strength and physique increased to a certain limit, and he also developed true qi from the outside in.

Gao Yi felt the true energy flowing like silk threads within his body, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He raised his gaze and looked at the painting again.

"Still no movement. It seems that certain conditions are really needed to get it into the catalog."

Gao Yi gently shook his head.

When Rourou arrived earlier, the scroll of the Hundred Flowers Manual did not make any sound.

In addition to the same experiences from the past.

Clearly, his golden touch is not indiscriminate; on the contrary, he is very selective.

Gao Yi pursed his lips, raised his hand and wiped it away, and the scroll in front of him disappeared instantly.

It's a pity. If this ancient scroll hadn't been so picky, he was sure that it wouldn't have taken three days to teach that so-called protector a lesson.

He squinted, shook his head, and once again felt the power within his body.

"But it will be soon, and I hope you will fully enjoy the surprise when it happens."

Gao Yi smiled and picked up the Buddhist scripture again, slowly turning the pages.

Inside the huge tent, only the occasional sound of turning pages could be heard.

Those in power within the Maitreya sect would never know that in this prison they had specially set up for their puppets, a monster was slowly taking shape.

……

Time flies like water, and seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these days, Gao Yi's life remained as usual, as regular as a machine.

Every day, without fail, he sits in his tent, reading Buddhist scriptures.

Three meals a day were served by maids, and of course, there was always the Buddha pills.

Until this day.

"Huh? Protector Bai actually has time to come here today? Is there something you need?"

At the usual mealtime, the maid Rou Rou did not appear; instead, a middle-aged man dressed in a loose white robe was present.

The protector of the Maitreya sect is also the true controller of the Maitreya sect today.

Protector Bai frowned slightly. As the leader of the Maitreya Sect, he didn't really care much about Gao Yi, this pawn, and hadn't seen Gao Yi for a long time.

Hearing Gao Yi's tone of voice, the protector was clearly displeased, because there was no fear in his voice, but rather a hint of mockery and casualness, even disregard.

Protector Bai snorted coldly, not bothering to argue with Gao Yi, and simply spoke calmly.

"An enemy is attacking, and the Maitreya Sect needs to move deeper into the grasslands. From now on, you will stay by my side without ever leaving my side."
