Chapter 57 "Merit"

What are you doing?

Because the immortal consciousness was disturbed by the Baoguang from the north, Li Changshou and other paper figures approached the stockade and hid in the top of a big tree, and only then could they look at the situation inside the stockade.

Hundreds of villagers gathered near the village gate, where a stage was set up, with several figures in Taoist robes jumping up and down on it.

Someone is preaching here...

Looking clearly at the source of the light, it is actually a clay statue behind these 'preachers';

Li Changshou smiled in his heart, and the middle-aged man transformed into a paper man jumped down from the treetop and was about to leave immediately.

He thought some kind of treasure had been discovered and wanted to come over and pick it up.

How can there be so many treasures to pick up these days...

If this kind of preaching happened outside Nanfangbu Continent, it would probably be done by some big sects to recruit people. Propaganda activities carried out to recruit disciples.

But if it happens in Nanfangbuzhou, it is either to defraud money or to collect incense and merit.

This kind of thing is not uncommon.

The cultivation levels displayed by those evangelists are all at the third or fourth level of the Transformation Realm;

The old Taoist guarding the three-foot-high clay statue showed His cultivation is at the peak of the Return to the Void Realm and is close to the Return to the Dao Realm...

In short, it has nothing to do with him.

The paper man pinched the magic formula with both hands, hid behind the tree and began to perform earth escape;

The sound of chanting scriptures came with the wind and reached the paper man's ears. Longevity in my heart.

I heard the verse singing:

"... I have great aspirations to realize the supreme path, and I promise to make the West achieve Bodhi..."

The West teach?

The speed of the paper man's hands on the magic formula was faster. As soon as a few ripples appeared on the ground in front of him, the paper man couldn't wait to get into it;

He ran even faster than before. Three points.

At the same time, Li Changshou's body on the desert island also stood up, used the transformation technique to turn into a swimming fish, and headed straight towards the east.

Western religion is a great cause and effect, why don’t you wait here!

Unexpectedly, this is still the southwest of Nanfangbuzhou, very far away from Xiniuhezhou, but the Western religion has already put its tentacles to collect incense here.

But just as Li Changshou was about to escape, his immortal consciousness suddenly caught something strange in the sea water in the southeast.

About eight hundred miles away, there was a dense mass of demonic energy, swimming in the direction of the shining treasure...

Li Changshou immediately stopped. Falling to the bottom of the sea, he tried his best to hide his whereabouts;

He also stopped the paper man who was still traveling underground and stayed motionless underground.

Is there a great sea monster attracted by the treasure light in the village?

This is not a good thing.

After careful observation, the great demon in the sea has a cultivation level equivalent to that of a Qi practitioner in the early stage of the True Fairy Realm. The body wrapped in the demonic aura is a strange-looking big fish, somewhat similar to a carpet ray, but The body is relatively large, long and wideIt’s all over a hundred feet.

If you consider that the other party has hidden cultivation, it is not conservatively estimated to be in the late stage of True Fairy Realm.

Under the strong demonic aura, this monster is surrounded by wisps of blood, and the blood is like a flame;

This is a sign of the evil nature of this thing, and its killing is very serious. The karma has already manifested itself.

Li Changshou’s heart was pounding.

Of course, he doesn’t have any special preference for such weird things, he just likes the power of karma in this big monster.

You can earn a lot of merit by clearing away such strong karma!

Do you want to kill this big monster?

Li Changshou was thinking rapidly in his heart.

After becoming an immortal myself, my background is too weak, and my treasures are not many.

Merit is a good thing, and it is quite rare;

If you huddle in a mountain gate to practice and do not do good deeds that are conducive to the stability of heaven and earth, you will not get a trace of it for hundreds of years.

If you are a ruthless person who is focused on [proving the Tao through strength], you must avoid being blessed by merit, so as to ensure that you will not be affected by the way of heaven in the future.

But Li Changshou did not have such lofty ideals. The issues he considered were very practical.

——If you have more merit to protect yourself, your safety factor will be higher.

If I can get great merit in the future, I will not learn from the big guys to cultivate magic weapons, but I will definitely build a golden body with merit first!

Having a golden body of merit is equivalent to a gold medal for immunity from death. No matter what disaster you encounter, you don’t have to be too afraid;

At that time, even if the saint wants to force Even if you shoot him, you will hesitate to lose the power of merit several times the merit of the golden body.

Of course, the golden body of merit is extremely difficult to cultivate and requires a huge amount of merit.

Today, the way of heaven is becoming perfect, and there are not many opportunities to obtain great merit.

Going to heaven would give you more opportunities to earn merit. Li Changshou had also considered related matters before.

Let’s talk about the matter at hand first.

Killing this big monster will definitely bring you a lot of merit;

As the saying goes, sand makes a mountain and drops of water make a sea. Everything must have a beginning.

As for being involved with the demon clan...

The human race and the demon clan are mortal enemies. Even if I am polite to the demon clan, if one day I fall into the hands of a master of the demon clan, , and the only way is to be thrown into the frying pan.

There is no need to be polite to the demon clan.

But if you consider that the other party may be hiding his cultivation, you have to bear some risks...

This is the South China Sea, not a place where monsters gather. There are only This big demon's aura is just a sprinkling of small demons on an island...

Now that water escape and earth escape are complete, it's no problem to travel a hundred thousand miles a day. Kill this thing yourself. He immediately ran away and hid in the secular world, without fear of retaliation from other demon clans...

Moreover, he had the ability to stop it while ensuring his own safety, but he just watched the big fish demon go.Killing a fellow human being is somewhat unjustifiable.

After all, he was born in two lives...

Although Li Changshou had reservations about whether the organisms in Xiong Village were of the same race.

......

With the mentality of giving it a try, Li Changshou used Water Escape, which was ten times faster than the big demon, and silently rushed to the shore. A sea area hundreds of miles away.

Except for the three immortal sects, most of the escape methods in the ancient times are quite difficult to find;

And among the group of Qi Refiners nowadays, the trend of attaching importance to treasures and despising methods is prevalent, which makes many People underestimate the role of escape.

Calculating the path of this big demon, Li Changshou flicked his sleeves and robes, and six paper figures flew out from left to right, transforming into men and women with different faces, different body shapes, and different auras.

The six-paper people immediately became busy on the bottom of the sea and began to quietly arrange trapping formations suitable for use in the water.

The treasure umbrella is temporarily out of use and has not been upgraded yet.

Li Changshou fled towards the shore, met up with the paper man hiding underground, put the paper man away, and found a forest by the sea to hide.

Close your eyes and concentrate, and all the wind, grass and movement within a radius of hundreds of miles will enter your heart.

A moment later, huge waves arose on the sea a hundred miles away!

A large circular formation appeared on the sea surface, directly trapping this huge wave!

The hundred-meter-long monster did not notice the ambush ahead, and ran straight into the temporary trap. Then it realized that something was wrong, and immediately began to rush madly!

The six paper man clones have appeared from everywhere, rushed to the big demon's body, each sprinkled a few bottles of poisonous powder, and used fairy power to stick to the big demon's body.

In an instant, the sea water around the big demon became turbid. Every part of the big demon's body was quickly corroded, and the demon soul was also severely damaged!

"You are! Who... people..."

This time, Li Changshou sacrificed the last two bottles of super-grade Ruanxian powder...

Li Changshou's spirit was highly tense;

After the six paper mannequins had sprinkled poisonous powder on their hands, they each held swords crossed and rushed forward, and there were also images in the sea connected by fairy lights. The talismans are raised;

The sword formation and the True Flame of Samadhi are powerful at the same time!

The talisman array is like a chain, locking the big demon from everywhere. The power of the talisman array explodes, sealing, electric shock, freezing, charcoal grilling...

Then The monster's body, which had been mostly corroded by the poisonous powder, now had little defense power.

Six paths were scratched by the fairy sword wrapped in the true flame of Samadhi, and six intersecting cracks appeared on the big demon’s body immediately!

A stream of Samadhi true flames penetrated into the cracks everywhere, using the fairies, Qi, and gods as fuel, and the fire burned everywhere!

The fire enveloped the big demon in the sea in an instant, but the latter could not let out any screams...

Among the trees on the coast, Li Changshou clenched the five fingers of his left handWith fists, six paper mannequin clones, each holding a flaming sword, rushed into various parts of this monster's body.

Inside the array wall, in the sea water, fire burst out!

Water pillars exploded from the sea surface, and several pieces of broken bodies wrapped in the true Samadhi flames rose into the sky. The demon souls inside were locked in the air by the long chains of the talisman array, and were blocked by the rising Samadhi true flames. Swallowed directly!

Li Changshou performed the Five Elements Escape Technique, turning Wood Escape, Earth Escape, Water Escape in one go, and rushed towards the place where the trapping formation was.

When he arrived at the formation, three paper figures were sitting cross-legged on the sea, reciting the Sutra to Save People, the Mantra for Rebirth, and the Mantra for Disaster and Blessing;

The three paper figures were dealing with it. The poisonous powder remaining in the seawater will be sucked into the abdomen with the polluted seawater and the immortal flames, and then recovered later.

This Samadhi True Flame is really fierce. When it was time to drink tea, the huge body of this big demon was only a puddle of ashes on the sea...

Li Changshou emerged from the water. A question suddenly occurred to me.

The power of Samadhi True Flame is too strong. If you need to use it to make elixirs in the door, or someone else suddenly asks you how you are doing with your practice of Samadhi True Flame, wouldn’t it be...

It’s time to think about how to reduce the power of this true flame;

It’s best if the power is controllable and the size can be adjusted at will.

Li Changshou threw out the soul-capturing beads, raised his sleeves and robes, and the pile of ashes and seawater was taken into his palm, formed into a water ball, and was thrown into the air, exploding gently.

Unexpectedly, it felt a little refreshing...

The chanting sound continued. Li Changshou held the soul-capturing bead and checked the memory fragments inside.

Well, this big monster is indeed not from the South China Sea. It originally lived in the West Sea...

There are no powerful people in our ancestors. The deep sea monster clan has never been able to support it because of its lack of luck. Get up...

This fish demon has killed countless people, and countless fishermen on the sea have perished in its hands. Killing them is justice.

A ray of golden light suddenly flew up from the sea and injected into Li Changshou's arm;

Li Changshou suddenly felt a little enlightenment in his heart, and felt that his own way had an extra layer of protection. My own path to immortality seems to have become a little smoother.

This is merit.

A rough estimate is that if you kill a few million of these evil monsters, you will be able to condense your merits into a golden body...

Otherwise, let’s forget it. , it’s good to be in the mountains without going out.

"Huh?"

Li Changshou frowned and saw something strange in the memory fragments of this thing.

Sneak attack on a village, pretend to be repelled by the clay statue, return to the sea to lurk...

Then sneak attack on other villages, pretend to be repelled by the clay statue, return to the sea to lurk...< /p>

Li Changshou couldn't help but tremble at the corner of his mouth. As soon as the chanting ended, he immediately packed up the paper figures, magic weapons, and treasure bags;

He did not go to recover the formation base, and hurriedly gathered the formation here. Destroy it, use blinding techniques and transfiguration techniques, and crazily activate water escape towards the east.

This big demon was taught by the West!

He is with those people who are preaching in Xiong Village!

They first propagandized the essence of Western religion there, waited for the big demon to attack, and then used clay statues to pretend to repel the big demon and perform "miracles", thereby gaining a group of die-hard believers and providing Western religion with Offer incense!

This strategy is definitely despicable, but Li Changshou does not have such a sense of justice to expose this matter, and he really does not want to have anything to do with Western religions.

The two sages of the West love to save people to the west, and are also planning to become gods;

Before and after the catastrophe of becoming gods, many unnecessary Taoist conflicts were planned behind these two saints shadow!

After becoming a god, I turned Hu into a Buddha, and forced the Western religion to become Mahayana Buddhism...

This is a dispute over the fate of religion, and five saints are involved!

In this game of chess, Daluo Jinxian is just a chess piece that the saint plays with at will, let alone a little immortal who has just overcome the tribulation.

If you can't afford to offend, just run away, run away.

With the wind and lightning, Li Changshou alternated between water and earth escape to the east;

I originally thought that I could travel one hundred thousand miles a day, but I didn’t expect that I could reach one hundred thousand miles in half a day. inside.

There is such a thing as potential, even if you give it a fright, it does exist.

Goed ashore, hid, found a place to touch up his makeup, and equipped himself with physical and magical means;

This time Li Changshou turned into a weak scholar and went to court. Rush to the northeast.

His right hand hidden in his sleeve holds the soul-capturing bead, and Li Changshou is carefully observing the sporadic memories of this big demon.

Not long after, he actually found some more useful information;

He even heard the words "Du Xian Sect" in an article about the Three Religions Immortal Sect. In the topic, someone else was talking about this big monster...

...

When Li Changshou escaped five or six thousand miles away.

At the gate of Xiong Village, a group of strong men and women were bored, yawning and watching the people on the stage jumping around.

These Qi Refiners were also a little puzzled and kept communicating with their eyes.

It stands to reason that their boss should show up, but why has there been no movement?

The boss overslept? Wrong place?

This prayer dance has been performed three times, and the simple villagers below are tired of watching it.

"Cough!"

The old man coughed lightly, stopped chanting, shook his head first, and then shouted in a weird tone:

" If you believe in the God, you will be protected by the God, and you will be invulnerable to fire and water!

Wang Cai, come and demonstrate it for everyone.”

The young man who was selected suddenly said. After agreeing, he immediately secretly attached a talisman to himself, knelt down before the clay statue and offered incense, and a golden light appeared on his chest and behind him.

This talisman is called the Diamond Talisman. It is a relatively elementary talisman and can resist vulgarThe World Weapon is of course not a problem.

However, this young disciple took half a step forward, and just as he was about to follow the 'process', he called one or two people to come up and chop him with a knife;

But as far as he could see, his thoughts At the same time, the spiritual sense in my heart was beating wildly, warning frantically.

Looking at the crowd of incredibly strong humanoid creatures, Wang Cai was gradually swallowed by the shadows, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

Suddenly, he found a cute little girl with red and swollen eyes behind the crowd. He was delighted, pointed at the girl and said:

"This Girl, can you come up and try, can you beat me?"

"Huh?"

Xiong Lingli looked up and wiped her tearful eyes. That little face is particularly adorable.

But the moment she squeezed out of the crowd, Wang Cai's legs couldn't help but tremble.

This...

This...

"Do I really want to hit you?" Xiong Lingli asked in a low voice.

"Yes, that's right."

Wang Cai turned his head and looked at the team's number two person. The old man glared at him. This Wang Cai could only agree like this, and kept telling him in his heart. Self:

This little girl is just a little stronger, but she is still a mortal;

Yes, she is just a mortal.

We are Qigong practitioners, we... will not be afraid.
