Chapter 267 The World
Chapter 267 The World (Part 2)
Xu Qing stared at the eighteen Fire Cloud Horses that were approaching continuously, with Tantric prayer wheels embedded around their necks.
At this moment, the prayer wheel was spinning wildly. With every rotation, the horse's flesh and blood would peel off a little, and finally turned into a pile of white bones wrapping around a lava-like heart.
"The secret method of living sacrifice in the Tantric Kalachakra Sutra." The devilish voice of Vajra Demon King sounded in a low voice.
The Fire Cloud Horse under Xu Qing's mount was restless.
Seeing the same bloodline being desecrated, Huoyun Horse, which had already entered the stage of transcendence, couldn't help but feel angry.
The fire burning in the eye sockets of these excellent horses that were sacrificed alive was the "soul-burning fire" of the Tantric Kalachakra Sutra.
The huge glazed pit created by the collision between the Vajra Demon King and the huge Buddha's hand in the blood-colored lotus suddenly oozed black water, and twelve bronze coffins broke out of the ground. The gluttonous pattern on the coffin lid instantly swallowed up half of the gold foil scripture in Xu Qing's hand, and Buddha's light appeared in the air, piecing together a complete diagram of the Great Sun Lotus Platform.
The King Kong Demon King suddenly groaned, and the tattoo of the Heavenly Wolf Devouring the Sun on his chest was actually torn into blood and flesh by the formation diagram.
The core of the formation diagram was reflected in Xu Qing's pupils - there was half a divine talisman with the word "Murong" engraved on it floating there.
A loud sound of gears turning was heard from the bottom of the glass pit, and sixty-four Tantric statues of Vajra Kings broke out of the water.
The Vajra King in the center suddenly opened his third eye, and all the Vajra Kings immediately formed the Vajra Wheel Seal, and the entire canal suddenly rolled back into the sky!
Xu Qing rode his Fire Cloud Horse and crushed the void in the raging torrent.
The divine talisman on the formation diagram suddenly lit up, and an illusion emerged: it was the scene of Grand Master Murong making seals and worshiping the Black Mountain Old Demon.
There was an earth-shaking roar from the bottom of the canal.
Xu Qing suddenly realized: This might be the opportunity that the Black Mountain Old Demon and the Living Buddha of Snow Region want to use Fu Xuan's Martial Saint flesh and blood to unlock the seal of Emperor Yu.
One has to admit that the Primordial Demon Qi's transformation into something free and unfettered is too terrifying. It actually uses the false to cultivate the true and achieves the effect of the flesh and blood of a Martial Saint.
Xu Qing felt powerless to complain.
Is it not a good thing that the Heavenly Demonic Power is too powerful?
At this moment, Xu Qing couldn't afford to be distracted by these things.
He looked to the northwest, where the shadow of a towering bronze city could be seen...
The phantom of the bronze civilization's city walls twisted in the dark clouds, and the phantom of the bronze tripod was reflected in Xu Qing's pupils - that was one of the nine cores where Emperor Yu sealed the ancient water demon.
"So they are the real killer." Xu Qing pressed his Heaven-Repairing Hand on the Fire Cloud Horse's mane, and the fire from the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire flowed into the horse's body along its spine.
"Senior Fu Xuan, do you still remember how it felt when Grand Tutor Murong dealt you a fatal blow?" Xu Qing said in a low voice. The real Fu Xuan of Jiangning Mansion suddenly echoed Xu Qing's words in his mind. Painful memories flooded into his heart, followed by the pain and despair of being backstabbed by the person closest to him.
The despair and pain from the Martial Saint!
The Taichu Demonic Qi seemed to have had a full meal.
The shadow of the King Kong Demon King suddenly solidified, and the Martial Saint's blood actually burned into golden red under the urging of the demonic energy. The Heavenly Wolf Tattoo broke free from the restraints of the formation diagram and bit the phantom of the divine talisman in mid-air.
"Click——"
The sound of the shattering divine talisman was like thunder splitting a canal. The eighteen ghost riders were blown into dust, and the lava heart gathered into a red stream at the bottom of the glass pit, flowing into the body of the Fire Cloud Horse under Xu Qing's seat. It neighed to the sky, and scales grew on its forehead, interspersed with a bronze vertical pupil!
"Double pupil Pegasus?"
The Buddhist voice from afar was filled with surprise, "This is the bloodline that only the Eight Horses of King Yu have!"
The moment the vertical pupil turned inverted, the Fire Cloud Horse was instantly blessed by the Heaven-Repairing Hand and the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire, which stimulated the innate instinct deep in its blood.
The canal hanging upside down in the air fell down with a loud bang under the pull of the Fire Cloud Horse's innate instinct.
The Vajra Wheel Seal formed by sixty-four statues of Vajra Kings was washed to pieces by the mighty force of the water.
At this time, blood and tears burst out of the third eye of Kundalini Vajra - the tears condensed into blood-colored relics in mid-air and went straight to the back of Xu Qing's heart.
"Come on!" Xu Qing grabbed the relic with his backhand, and the Taishi Demon Qi turned into a vortex in his palm. The moment the blood sank into the vortex, the shadow of the city of the bronze civilization in the northwest suddenly solidified by three points, and the pattern on the city gate was exactly the same as the Taotie pattern on the bronze coffin lid. The King Kong Demon King suddenly shouted: "Demon Lord, be careful!"
Blood-colored vines grew wildly from the Great Sun Lotus Array, and the face of a living Buddha appeared on every leaf.
The tip of the vine pierced the bronze vertical pupil on the forehead of the Fire Cloud Horse, but the moment it touched, a sound of metal clashing was heard.
"Ding--"
Hundreds of Fang Xian Dao's specially made thunderbolts flew out of Xu Qing's sleeves and exploded at the center of the Great Sun Lotus Platform. The air waves tore the blood-colored vines into pieces. As the blood rain fell, he saw that at the bottom of the glass pit, the falling blood rain was surging along the patterns of the bronze coffin.
At the same time, the scene of the salt merchants' private port flashed in Xu Qing's bronze mirror.
This is the scene that Xu Qing saw from Yan Shan through the demonic consciousness.
Yan Shan and the students of the Military Academy were leading the Embroidered Uniform Guards to break into the Yuhang Salt Warehouse. What spilled out from the mountains of sacks was not japonica rice, but millet mixed with bones!
"Lure the tiger away from the mountain?" Xu Qing frowned. He now knew very well that this time it was the Black Mountain Old Demon, the Living Buddha of Snow Region, and Grand Tutor Murong who had joined forces to plan this.
"Humph, it's a pity that you found the wrong person."
...
...
Yingtian Prefecture, Blackwater Lake.
Many steam water wheels began to work, and the roar drowned out the thunder when Fang Xiandao and Longhu Mountain joined forces to attract thunder from the sky and bring down heavy rain.
The water from the Yangtze River began to flow back into Heishui Lake, alleviating the drought in Yingtian Prefecture.
Suddenly, the heavy rain turned into bloody rain.
A large number of steam water wheels began to crack due to the erosion of the blood rain.
At the same time, in the direction of Black Water Lake, there is also a city of bronze civilization looming. This is also one of the nine sealed cores of ancient water demons when Emperor Yu was controlling floods.
The civilians who took part in this drought-killing operation became living sacrifices of Emperor Yu's seal under the erosion of blood rain.
Three generations ago, sacrificial activities always used living people as sacrifices.
Whether it is the seal of the Qingzhou Canal section or the seal of Emperor Yu in the Black Water Lake, both require living people to perform some kind of mysterious sacrificial ceremony.
...
...
Yingtian Prefecture, Fang's residence, Lord Fang was lying on a rattan chair. He slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze seemed to penetrate all obstacles and reach the Black Water Lake.
He saw everything that was happening at this moment.
"Xu Gongming is right. The world has been a cannibalistic place since ancient times. People in the world have always been slaves like cattle and horses. The world has never changed." Elder Fang sighed.
Cannibalism and slavery have been the way the world has been since ancient times.
Elder Fang slowly extended his hand.
In an instant, a hand seemed to ignore the distance in space and so calmly and plainly smoothed out the bloody rain phenomenon in the Black Water Lake.
Suddenly, everything was calm and the dark clouds had dispersed, as if nothing strange had ever happened.
However, the corpses of the laborers beside the waterwheel are still the most direct evidence of the previous horror.
"Go on." Master Gu of Fang Xiandao said to the official from the Ministry of Works, then looked in the direction of Fang's residence in fear. He didn't even realize what means the other party had used to solve this huge trouble.
