Chapter 6 Disciples of the Flesh Buddha, Great Sage's Brahma Sound
Dog Egg cried three times in his life.
First, her family members died one by one before her eyes; second, Xiaocao caught a cold and almost didn't make it.
Thirdly, now.
He never imagined that the wandering swordsman he had taken in out of kindness would one day save his life.
Xiao Cao darted out from behind Li Qingchen. Seeing the mangled corpses scattered on the ground and the perfectly healthy Gou Dan, her heart skipped a beat, and she cried out:
"Dog Egg!"
Dog Egg seemed to wake from a dream, and burst into tears of joy:
"Waaah, little grass, I thought I'd never see you again..."
The two little ones hugged each other tightly.
Li Qingchen revealed a smile like that of an aunt.
Having seen so much filth, it's rare to find genuine kindness.
He brought up the control panel.
Current number of resurrections: 1/3
"This approach is feasible."
After calming himself down, Li Qingchen stepped over the corpses scattered on the ground and walked into the house.
Looting is a good habit.
Li Qingchen ransacked the Chen residence, leaving everything valuable, before taking the two children with him.
I went back to the shabby little house.
Li Qingchen immediately fetched hot water and let Gou Dan take a bath first.
He went out again and bought back several pounds of pork, several pounds of beef, and two large jugs of good wine.
Baked flatbread, steamed buns, peanuts, side dishes... everything you could want was available.
Li Qingchen understood that the best way for someone who had experienced great ups and downs to calm down was to eat and drink well, take a hot bath, and get a good night's sleep. He had personally tested it and found it effective.
Gou Dan swallowed hard, wondering if he was dreaming.
In less than a day, he experienced plowing, cockfighting, witnessing a chicken demon destroy his family, being rescued by a wandering knight, and... a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.
It felt like I had lived through a lifetime of ups and downs.
The dark-skinned youth suddenly knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly to Li Qingchen.
The little grass didn't know why.
However, she also kowtows to Gou Dan.
Li Qingchen hurriedly helped the two up, saying, "There's no need for that. You saved my life; these are just small favors, nothing to repay."
……
Night has fallen.
After settling the two little ones in, Li Qingchen went to the courtyard, faced the bright moon, and silently recited the "Hun Yuan Tian Ji Jue" in his heart.
With the acupoints fully opened, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth comes unbidden and circulates continuously within the body.
All alcoholic beverages and meat were absorbed and digested.
The effects of the alcohol have completely worn off, and the altar is now completely clear.
Li Qingchen silently reviewed the situation.
Today, I killed the chicken demon at the Chen residence, which triggered the 'Plunder' talent.
The chicken demon didn't have any magical powers, but it still gained experience points.
However, there are far more of them than the living dead.
The Nine Swords of Soaring Void allowed for rapid advancement in cultivation level.
Now that they've tasted the sweetness of being a middleman, they're naturally itching to get back to it.
However, Li Qingchen was also aware of this.
Swordsmanship alone is no match for an army of thousands of undead.
We need to break this deadlock.
It's safer to first master a skill of lightness in reality before venturing into lawless areas.
We can either continue exploring this treasure trove of mass graves, relying on our innate "good luck" and seizing opportunities to break through the current predicament.
Without much thought.
Li Qingchen opened the panel.
【Great swordsman, you are a being who can make gods and demons retreat, how could you stop moving forward just because you encounter some difficulties?】
You have one chance to revive. Do you want to use it?
"Ha, trying to provoke me again."
Li Qingchen manipulated his hand bones and clicked "Yes".
Brave swordsman, unwilling to give up, you have returned to the mass grave.
The army of the undead is still relentlessly pursuing you.
The treasure that has already been taken will not trigger another opportunity.
Which direction will you choose this time?
The panel offers three options: South, North, and West.
These are the only escape routes available at the moment.
Li Qingchen recalled:
"I remember the last grave with the monkey was in the south."
[This time you chose to flee westward, perhaps it was fate. Having chosen the sword embryo as your initial talent, you faintly heard ethereal chanting.]
The "Primordial Heavenly Secrets Technique" makes your body more agile. You mobilize your true energy to quickly distance yourself from the army of the living dead and head towards the place where the sacred chants are being transmitted.
[Hint: The "Strong Luck" talent has been triggered!]
"They're here!"
Li Qingchen thought to himself, "As expected of the newbie protection period, there are opportunities everywhere."
Sooner or later, we men will wipe out this troublesome army of undead.
Then they ransacked the mass grave, turning it upside down and taking all the treasures for themselves!
You see a large, fat worm wriggling not far ahead.
[You notice that it moves incredibly slowly, and it's chanting incantations; the Sanskrit sounds are coming from its mouth.]
The army of the undead is closing in. The situation is dire. Will you choose to kill them with a single sword strike?
Should we go over and find out what's going on?
Li Qingchen hesitated slightly.
Killing the flesh worm might reveal a secret manual, but how could a worm chant Buddhist mantras?
You chose to go and find out.
To your surprise, you discover that it's not an insect at all, but a person.
[A monk with missing hands and feet, and an extremely obese body!]
The fat monk claimed to be a disciple of the Flesh Buddha, and that his purpose in coming here was to eliminate the remnants of the Blood Demon.
Unexpectedly, he fell into a trap set by villains on the road and had his arms and legs severed.
【Kind-hearted swordsman, would you be willing to lead it to find the remnants of the Blood Demon?】
"Blood Demon? Tsk, isn't that the great demon who sacrificed the internal organs of his disciples and manipulated the Demon Emperor to wage war against Taoism hundreds of years ago?"
"It's been so long, and he's still not dead?"
The fat monk explained to you that the Blood Demon Ancestor did indeed die in that battle.
The wisp of its soul that managed to escape successfully inhabited a piece of flesh.
Over the years, flesh and blood, constantly devouring living beings, gradually developed intelligence and grew physical bodies.
If this continues, given time, it may return to the peak of the demonic sect, unleashing another bloodbath.
Li Qingchen couldn't help but think of the skeletal soldiers he had seen before.
It turned out that the blood demon had eaten its flesh and blood.
Hearing that the spirit ape had died in a mass grave, the Blood Demon traveled a great distance to this place, solely to obtain the "Primordial Chaos Heavenly Secrets Manual."
Li Qingchen's heart sank immediately.
If the Blood Demon discovers that the Heavenly Secret Technique is on him...
What else is there to say? We must help the master to eliminate evil and uphold justice!
[You circulated your inner energy, hoisted the incredibly obese monk onto your back, mustered your last breath, and once again shook off the army of the living dead.]
But you know full well that you can't hold on much longer, while the undead army has unlimited stamina.
So you ask the master if he can intervene and wipe out the army of the undead?
The fat monk explained to you that his magical power was only sufficient to remove the remnant of the blood demon; any loss would prevent him from doing so.
"Depend on!"
Li Qingchen hadn't expected this outcome, and had no choice but to carry the fat monk around searching for the remnants of the Blood Demon.
[You notice a blood-soaked figure three zhang tall ahead; without a doubt, it is the remnant of the Blood Demon.]
The Blood Demon has also noticed you. You discover that wisps of blood energy are seeping from your body, continuously flowing into the Blood Demon.
[You were horrified: In just one exchange, your life force was drained; this demon is truly formidable!]
Suddenly, a soft, melodious chanting came from behind, blocking the Blood Fiend Demonic Art, and your life force stopped draining away.
The fat monk said, "Amitabha, I will deal with this demon. Please, benefactor, hold off that living dead for a while."
Li Qingchen's lips twitched:
"Tsk, this stinky monk, he doesn't even hesitate to order me around."
【Fearless swordsman, you chose to help others to the very end. You set down the fat monk, then picked up your silver sword, activated the final Hunyuan Heavenly Secret Technique, and charged alone with your sword into the army of the living dead.】
You bought the fat monk precious time, though only a few seconds, but it was enough to decide the outcome for the other side.
The evil remnant soul on the Blood Demon's remnant body has been purified by the chanting of sacred words; it can no longer hold onto its flesh and blood and is rapidly collapsing.
The monk's body was mostly skeletonized, but his expression remained compassionate and serene.
"It's a lose-lose situation."
Although Li Qingchen did not witness the battle between good and evil firsthand, he could still feel the brutality of it from the text.
[Two flowers bloom, each telling a different story. Here you are, about to give up, and be captured by the living dead...]
Li Qingchen couldn't sit still any longer.
At this moment, the Buddha looked at you with compassion on his face. To thank you for your help, he decided to impart his final chanting to you.
"Amitabha Buddha, may the Buddha have mercy. This humble monk wishes that you, benefactor, may forever maintain your true nature throughout your life."
[Hint: You have obtained the Great Sage's Brahma Sounds!]
