Chapter 304: 8 Trigrams Seal the Corpse, Taiyin Destroys the Form
Chapter 304: Eight Trigrams seal the corpse, and the moon destroys the form
Mercury, blood, and copper corpse.
Cheng Xinzhan's mind moved and he had an idea.
He kept moving his hands, parrying the long spear, and at the same time dispatched the inner scene god of the earth palace, Prince Bingling, to come out of the mountain. Prince Bingling responded to the call, opened his phoenix eyes, took a respectful step, left the earth palace, floated up all the way, came to the vicinity of the central palace, and then entered the Dragon Scale Virtual Realm.
After opening up the Dragon Scale Void Realm in the Yellow Sea, he returned to Sanqing Mountain to rest for a while. During this time, he also cleaned up the Cave Stone Void Realm and tidied up the Dragon Scale Void Realm.
With the experience of using the cave stone virtual world, he did a lot of preparatory work before officially using the dragon scale virtual world. He created many shelves, cabinets, boxes, and various bottles and jars of different sizes and shapes, and placed them neatly in the virtual world.
Rows of thirty-meter-high wooden frames stand in the virtual world like tall buildings, arranged in blocks according to the Bagua diagram, with a large circular blank space in the middle.
There are eight areas: Kun, Zhen, Li, Dui, Qian, Xun, Kan and Gen. The things stored in each area follow the elements of the Eight Trigrams. The more commonly used things are placed closer to the inside. This is the arrangement made by Cheng Xinzhan according to his own habits.
For example, he placed the most common talisman paper in a wooden box on the first layer of the first row at the innermost part of the Xun shelf. For example, the two copies of Disha he had just obtained from Monk Kongse and Monk Jingshi were packed in lead bottles and placed on the first layer of the first row at the innermost part of the Kun shelf.
As for magic treasures or some filthy things, he would not put them in, and continued to use cave stones to store them. After all, this Dragon Scale Void Realm was not only a virtual world, but also one of his own acupoints, a part of his inner world.
At this moment, Prince Bingling came to the virtual world. With a thought, the lead bottle containing the "Bone-Dissolving and Blood-Coagulating Evil" flew out by itself. The prince took it in his hand and uncorked it.
The blood-red evil spirit overflowed and immediately began to spread. The evil spirit realized that this was not in the great world but in the acquired acupoints. It immediately began to churn violently, wanting to rush forward and overturn the sky.
This is what the monks often call "true evil rushing into the acupoint."
But now Cheng Xinzhan is no longer the young cultivator who hadn't even opened his heart palace yet. To refine such a quantity of True Evil, he doesn't need the assistance of lead and mercury. Prince Bingling grabbed his hand, and the earth-based magic power containing multiple earthly Evils including the "Huangji Zhengwu Evil" poured in, instantly suppressing the surging "Bone-melting and Blood-coagulating Evil", and then he began to refine it.
He chose to refine the True Evil while fighting with Yao Kaijiang. With the help of Prince Bingling, the process lasted very shortly and was accomplished in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, the thought came to his mind again, and several pieces of talisman paper flew out.
The prince stretched out his finger, and magic power mixed with true evil gathered at his fingertips. It contained both the "Bone-Dissolving and Blood-Coagulating Evil" that he had just refined, as well as the "Purple Fire Rotten Peach Evil" and the "White Spot and Impermanence Evil", all of which were Taiyin's form-destroying evil spirits.
The prince used the evil spirit as ink and began to draw talismans on paper, writing in ghost seal script, with "imperial edict" as the head, followed by "Prince Bingling, the inspector of Fengdu Criminal Department, controls the punishment", "rain ghost head or" as the opening, and "destroy the form" as the foot.
A "Corpse-Transforming Talisman" was completed in one go.
Meijishan practiced the art of resurrecting the dead, and was involved in raising corpses, saving corpses, and subduing corpses. He passed down methods for all of them, and Cheng Xinzhan naturally knew them all.
To raise a corpse is like Wu Qingbo, awakening the spirit to rebirth; to save a corpse is like Tian Jiaoshan, turning a corpse into a firefly. Both are fasting and offering sacrifices. Only to subdue a corpse is a fighting method, used to subdue a corpse possessed by a demon.
Previously, Cheng Xinzhan had used tricks to get rid of corpses in Tianjiao Mountain, so he had never used the method of subduing corpses. Now he met Yao Kaijiang, and it seemed that he had already transformed into the mercury-blood-copper corpse of the ancient Yelang Kingdom. Could the family-inherited method of subduing corpses be used to treat his condition?
Cheng Xinzhan wants to give it a try, because once it works, it will be twice as effective with half the effort.
The "Corpse-Transforming Talisman" is a secret talisman from the Meiji Mountain Corpse-Subduing Method. Cheng Xinzhan made some changes to it, adding the name of Prince Bingling, who is in charge of the underworld's criminal department, and hand-painted the talisman with the prince's divine image, adding the taboo of the god Fengdu, and replacing the cinnabar ink with the Taiyin ink of the Earthly Evil that can destroy forms. In this way, the power of this talisman is incomparable.
He drew the eight "Prince Bingling's Corpse-Transmutation Talismans" with great speed.
He thought again, and with a flip of his hand, a talisman he had just drawn was held in the palm of his left hand - for Cheng Xinzhan, whose inner world was extremely rich and active, the role of this acupoint virtual world was far more than what Long Jun had mentioned.
After fighting with Yao Kaijiang for a hundred rounds, the mist exhaled by Cheng Xinzhan once again filled the prison virtual world. He hid in the mist, and his sword became more tricky.
"Pretend to be a ghost!"
Yao Kaijiang sneered. He had already refined a body of mercury, blood and copper corpse, which was immune to all poisons. The miasma and phantom poison in the mist could not harm him, and his blood-red eyes seemed to be some kind of magical pupil technique. At such a close distance, even with the mist covering his eyes, he could still roughly see Cheng Xinzhan's figure and sword, so it did not affect his moves.
"This trick of yours might be useful against those Xuanmen sword cultivators who dare not approach me, but it is useless to me!"
Yao Kaijiang taunted and swung his spear with great force.
Cheng Xinzhan raised his sword and swung it away. Although he used the sword technique of using softness to overcome hardness, the force transmitted back from the sword still made his blood boil. The physical strength of Yao Kaijiang was far beyond his level.
However, Cheng Xinzhan ignored Yao Kaijiang's ridicule. His clouds were meant to prevent outside snooping, not to trap Yao Kaijiang. However, the cover of the clouds did help him to do some covert actions.
He began to step on the Eight Trigrams Ghost Locking Step.
The first step is to enter the Zhen position.
At the same time, start chanting the mantra:
"I ask Fengdu Binglinggong to shine his flaming eyes through the Nine Nether Palace. He will stand on top with a golden sword in hand, and the evil winds in the altar must not stop."
He touched the tip of the sword with his left hand, and the talisman stuck to the tip of the sword. He leaned over to avoid the attack, stabbed forward with the sword, and tapped Yao Kaijiang's Zhangmen acupoint.
As soon as the talisman paper touched Yao Kaijiang's protective divine light, it turned into ashes, but the runes on the talisman paper were quietly permeated with black light and imprinted on his copper skin, and disappeared in just a flash.
Yao Kaijiang only saw that Cheng Xinzhan's sword failed to pierce his copper skin, and the talisman paper was also disintegrated by his body-protecting divine light. He did not realize that the talisman had been imprinted on his body, so he laughed twice and continued to attack.
"What tricks do you have? Feel free to use them!"
Cheng Xinzhan turned to Xun position, stabbed Qimen acupoint with the sword, and then went straight to Li position and stabbed Tanzhong acupoint. After narrowly avoiding a spear, he jumped into Kun position and stabbed Shenque acupoint. Then he turned and stepped into Dui position, and then Qian position, stabbed Feishu and Dazhui acupoints.
At the same time, continue to chant the mantra:
"Until you reach Xunxu, you will patrol the barrier, then turn to Dui and Kun. Walk to Tiangang and head towards Qianhai, then look at Fengdu from afar and pay homage to the Emperor."
He took six steps in a row, stabbed six times with the sword, and sealed six talismans in a row, with endless variations.
But it was precisely because he took too quick and big steps that Yao Kaijiang seized upon his weakness. Although he tried his best to avoid it, he was still hit in the lower abdomen by Ge Feng - this is the location of the Huangting Palace!
"Ding!"
At the critical moment, Cheng Xinzhan promptly sacrificed the seal in Huangting. At this time, he did not care about the ritual usage of the seal. He just treated it as a stone and hit Ge Feng.
With a crisp sound, the seal was knocked away, but Ge Feng was also knocked off balance, and the sharp edge cut through Cheng Xinzhan's Taoist robe, leaving a two or three inch long bloody wound on his right abdomen.
Yao Kaijiang's spirits were greatly boosted and his momentum grew stronger.
Cheng Xinzhan put his left hand on the wound and sealed it with his magic power. He could only wait and see about the injury later.
Fortunately, the most difficult six changes are over.
He stepped into the Kan position, came behind Yao Kaijiang, and pressed the Mingmen acupoint on the lumbar spine with his sword.
Yao Kaijiang turned around and said,
"It's useless to stab me anywhere. I, Yao Kaijiang, am already invulnerable to swords and guns. I no longer have any so-called vital points!"
Cheng Xinzhan still ignored him, stepped into the Gen position, jumped into the air, jumped high, dodged the sweeping spear, swung his sword down, split Huashan with force, and pressed the shoulder well point on Yao Kaijiang's right shoulder.
Oral recitation:
"Kan passes through Hengshanzi, goes to Gen Palace and reaches Guimen. Anyone who dares not follow my way will have his head chopped off and crushed into dust!"
He flew down and stabbed, using all his strength, but still couldn't pierce Yao Kaijiang's copper skin. The Qiushui sword was bent into an arc, and Cheng Xinzhan took advantage of the momentum and bounced away from Yao Kaijiang. Yao Kaijiang laughed,
"You're talking big but your steps are not up to par. You said you were coming to take my head, but why are you running away now?"
Yao Kaijiang believed that the wanderer in front of him should have realized the power of his protective divine light, and he should have reached the end of his strength. Although his footwork and sword moves were strange and exquisite, the weapon in his hand could not break his protective divine light. It was like adding snow to fill a well - a futile effort.
But now he has realized it, but it is too late to escape. There is no time in this prison, no wine or blood food. It is not easy to get a tender and delicate person in here, how can he get away?
Yao Kaijiang kicked the ground and flew over again to chase after him.
However, Cheng Xinzhan no longer needs to deal with him.
He stood still, pointing his sword at the man who came.
"The Eight Trigrams seal the meridians and lock the bones, the Taiyin destroys the form and turns the body into a zombie, hurry up and obey the orders of Fengdu Binglinggong!"
Follow your words.
"Bang-bang-bang—"
There was a crackling sound like firecrackers, and blood mist suddenly exploded from Yao Kaijiang's body as he was running. Blue-gray flesh and silver-gray blood were scattered everywhere.
Yao Kaijiang naturally stopped.
When the blood mist dissipated, eight fist-sized holes appeared on Yao Kaijiang's body - they were exactly the eight acupoints where Cheng Xinzhan had just inserted the talisman.
Yao Kaijiang still looked a little dazed.
Cheng Xinzhan could see that Yao Kaijiang's body, including his face, did not tremble at all, so he judged that Yao Kaijiang should have lost his sense of pain for a long time - and this is exactly the characteristic of a zombie.
Not only that, in the eight holes of flesh and blood, the eight talismans were still flashing with light. Wherever the light shone, Yao Kaijiang's copper skin was like white wax meeting hot oil, slowly melting, and his mercury blood was like dry firewood meeting fire, instantly ignited, making a hissing sound and emitting a burst of white smoke.
Although Yao Kaijiang felt no pain, his face turned into extreme fear. He looked at Cheng Xinzhan and shouted,
"what have you done?!"
Cheng Xinzhan just said secretly:
Really useful.
Then, he made a sword gesture and said,
"Clouds lock up the thousand peaks!"
Youdu, who had been ready for action, suddenly turned into thousands of sword threads and attacked Yao Kaijiang like a storm.
At this moment, Yao Kaijiang no longer had the majestic appearance of a man of steel and iron, like a paper figure in the rain, instantly riddled with holes and shredded into a ball. The sword rain had only been blowing for ten breaths, and Yao Kaijiang's body had completely disappeared, leaving only a trace of his soul floating in the sword rain.
Cheng Xinzhan retracted the flying sword.
The lion also came over with a golden pill in its mouth.
Yao Kaijiang's soul knew that it was meaningless to use the art of wandering in this small prison virtual world. Moreover, if this person wanted to, as long as the sword rain just now continued for a while, his soul would not be able to hold out for much longer.
Without the bronze corpse body that he was so proud of and yet so ashamed of, Yao Kaijiang's soul and face underwent extremely complex changes in a very short period of time, but in the end, he showed a hint of melancholy, and a feeling of relief.
Yao Kaijiang's soul did not move, just waiting for Cheng Xinzhan to approach, then he asked again,
"who are you?"
At this time, Cheng Xinzhan finally spoke up, but he did not answer Yao Kaijiang's question. Instead, he asked himself,
“Were you arrested seven years ago?”
Yao Kaijiang was stunned when he heard this, thought for a while, and then gave up.
"I don't remember, I think so. We can't see the sun or the moon in this tower."
"Six years ago, Hong Changbao entered the Four Territories."
Cheng Xinzhan looked at Yao Kaijiang.
Yao Kaijiang's expression froze, and his soul fluttered like a candle in the wind, as if Cheng Xinzhan's words were even sharper and colder than the Youdu sword rain just now.
It was another indescribable change of emotions. Yao Kaijiang's spirit gradually stabilized, but it became much weaker. He no longer cared about who Cheng Xinzhan was. He asked in a low voice,
"Is Fuxia Lake still there?"
Cheng Xinzhan nodded.
"exist."
Yao Kaijiang's soul suddenly relaxed, as if he had heard some good news.
Cheng Xinzhan was puzzled. He had said this because he wanted Yao Kaijiang to die in pain and regret. But he had never expected that when he was alive, he had betrayed his master and led people to hunt down his fellow disciples who had fled, sparing no effort. Seeing that he was about to die, he was happy to hear such news.
"You look somewhat happy?"
Yao Kaijiang could actually laugh at this moment.
"Happy."
Cheng Xinzhan couldn't understand this kind of person, and didn't ask why, but asked another question.
"How did the red-haired ancestor die, Blood God Son?"
Yao Kaijiang's expression changed again.
"who are you?!"
Cheng Xinzhan still didn't answer, but just looked at Yao Kaijiang.
Yao Kaijiang thought about it and laughed. He was going to die anyway, so what was there to hide? He answered,
"Since you can mention Blood God Son, I believe you know something. But I want to tell you that you still think too simply of Blood God Son. To deal with Master, there is no need for Blood God Son to take action."
Yao Kaijiang did not keep the secret and continued,
"It's the Red Corpse Lord. I know Gu Chen is too famous, and you're all staring at him. But the Red Corpse and the Beautiful Corpse are no worse than the Demon Corpse, they just cultivated the Taoism at different times. You're underestimating the other two corpses."
"Ah."
Yao Kaijiang laughed.
"Master was brave and valiant throughout his life, with a broad mind and high vision, and he looked down upon the evil tricks, but in the end, he died because of the evil tricks."
"Hahaha--"
As Yao Kaijiang was talking, he started laughing again.
"Master, I've come to see you. I want to ask you why you don't love your eldest disciple!"
Amidst loud laughter, Yao Kaijiang's soul began to emit dazzling golden light.
He is going to self-destruct.
Cheng Xinzhan frowned, waved his sleeves, and dispersed them before he could.
The Red Corpse God.
Can the Red Corpse God of the Fourth Realm actually kill Jinlong of the same realm?
