Chapter 239 The old monk wanted to meet the so-called Nian tree demon!
Shifang naturally knew that he had gotten into trouble, so he didn't dare say a word and just walked away.
Finally, he followed his master to Qi Tongwei's door and heard his master expressing his intention to leave the market at the door.
"My dear friend, I can no longer discuss Buddhism with you. I have been bothering you for many days. I am here today to say goodbye. I hope we can meet again in the future!"
His magic cannot erase people's memories.
If we don't leave now, we will be besieged by all the gangsters in the market.
Bai Yun is naturally not afraid of mortals. No matter how many come, they will die, but he cannot kill all living beings.
When one has reached this level of cultivation, breaking the precepts means a fall in cultivation and failure to achieve enlightenment.
Just as Bai Yun was about to leave, the door suddenly opened. Qi Tongwei stood in front of the door with a frown on his face, and tried to persuade the old monk to stay.
"Master, please stay! I have something I want to explain to you!"
"Oh?"
Bai Yun turned around and took a look at Qi Tongwei, who had a serious expression on his face. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and walked into the room.
"Brother Zhiqiu, please come over and have a chat!"
"okay!"
Zhiqiu Yiye naturally came as soon as he was called, and walked into Qi Tongwei's room happily and smiling.
Everyone took their seats one after another. Qi Tongwei looked at Bai Yun and started a conversation.
"The master suddenly wants to leave, but what happened?"
Bai Yun glanced at his disciple who was standing beside him with his head down.
He thought that Qi Tongwei had no shortage of money and would not covet the golden Buddha, so he explained it clearly.
"The bad disciple was careless and accidentally exposed the golden Buddha to everyone. If he hadn't left..."
"Golden Buddha?"
Upon hearing this, Zhiqiu Yiye's eyes lit up immediately and he couldn't help but look at the little monk.
Qi Tongwei casually threw a small goldfish to Zhiqiu Yiye.
Tell him to shut up and stop interrupting, then say to Baiyun.
“Master, to be honest, this place is not peaceful… In the past few nights, I discovered that there is a thousand-year-old tree demon hiding in the outer Lanruo Temple, and it is causing great trouble!
Its territory is hundreds of miles in radius, and it feeds on human essence! I wanted to solve it alone, but the opponent is so powerful that I am no match for him, so I urgently want to improve my strength.
Yesterday, since I obtained Yan Chixia's inheritance, I am ready to take action against him today. If you leave now... you will be easily targeted by the tree demon!
How about staying for a few more days while I deal with the tree monster, and then taking your disciple on the journey?"
When acting, you have to act the whole thing!
Qi Tongwei did not invite Bai Yun to exorcise the demon right away, but advised him to wait a few days and he would solve the problem himself.
Hearing this, Bai Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Tongwei in surprise.
He didn't expect that Qi Tongwei, who was ruthless, would take the initiative to exorcise demons.
However, thinking that Qi Tongwei did not harbor much resentment despite his murderous aura, the old monk felt relieved.
Something like murderous intent can reveal whether a person kills innocent people indiscriminately.
Qi Tongwei doesn't have much resentment, which shows that he is not the kind of person who would slaughter people at will.
This is also the fundamental reason why the old monk is willing to travel with Qi Tongwei!
At this moment, hearing Qi Tongwei say this, the old monk felt that he was looked down upon, so he said with a smile.
"What you said makes me ashamed! You are a person without any sect or school, yet you are willing to exorcise demons. I have practiced for many years, so how can I just stand by and watch?"
At this time, Zhiqiu Yiye next to him suddenly thought of something and asked hesitantly.
"Brother, you said that place is called Lanruo Temple?"
"Yup!"
"Depend on!"
Zhiqiu Yiye slapped his head and exclaimed in surprise.
“Senior Yan Chixia once lived here and fought against this tree demon that was harming people everywhere!
A hundred years ago, the senior severely injured the tree demon, causing it to fall into a deep sleep to recover from its injuries. Who would have thought that it would come out and cause trouble again now? "
Now, the old monk completely believed what Qi Tongwei said.
Because Yan Chixia's name is well-known in the world of cultivators, he is a true hero.
The fact that he could be hostile to the tree demon must be that the tree demon had caused too much harm!
Bai Yun immediately stood up and spoke decisively to Qi Tongwei.
"Then what are we waiting for? Since we have encountered the demons causing chaos, we must eliminate them and restore peace to the land!"
Qi Tongwei quickly persuaded, "Master, that tree demon is very strong!"
"Haha, this old monk is not weak either! I was just thinking of meeting the so-called thousand-year-old tree demon!"
Zhiqiu Yiye also quickly stood up and agreed, "Brother, you should have told me about this earlier, why do you have to solve it by yourself?
It is our duty as monks to exorcise demons and monsters. Otherwise, what is the point of practicing?"
almost!
Seeing this, Qi Tongwei could only agree reluctantly, but he still gave a shot of prevention.
"Master, Brother Zhiqiu, I have figured out the tree demon's tricks in the past few days. I can weaken its strength tonight. Since you want to go, why don't you try my plan first?"
"go!"
Bai Yun went out first without saying a word, holding a magic wand, and appeared quite confident.
Zhiqiu Yiye also went back to pack his things, carrying his bag and traveling with Qi Tongwei.
The group walked out of the market and soon arrived at the forest.
Bai Yun looked around, frowned and said in a deep voice.
"It is indeed a thousand-year-old demon! In broad daylight, this place is filled with demonic energy, countless wronged souls, and I don't know how many innocent people have been killed!"
Zhiqiu Yiye also sighed, "It's really powerful, even more powerful than the centipede monster back then. No wonder Brother Qi can't deal with it alone!"
Qi Tongwei took advantage of the day before it got dark and took the old monk and others directly to the main location of the big locust tree.
He thought that with the help of Baiyun and the other man, he might be able to destroy the tree monster during the day, but the result was very disappointing.
Because, after seeing the true form of the big locust tree, the old monk spoke frankly to persuade them.
"There is a formation from the underworld here, it is extremely powerful, don't act rashly! Otherwise, once the formation is broken, it will open the passage to the underworld and summon hundreds of ghosts to parade at night!"
"What should I do?"
Bai Yun thought for a while before saying, "Wait until the tree demon reveals itself at night. We must first break its power so that it cannot control the magic circle. Only then can we destroy the tree demon's body!"
Sure enough, isn’t it not that easy?
Opening the passage to the underworld is a huge cause and effect.
Neither Zhiqiu Yiye nor the old monk were willing to bear it!
They would rather spend time and effort to fight the tree demon head-on than take such a risk.
Therefore, Qi Tongwei had no choice but to take them to Lanruo Temple.
……
After entering Lanruo Temple.
The old monk took out his various instruments and chanted scriptures before it got dark.
Prepare in advance for the big battle in the evening.
Zhiqiu Yiye lay on the beam, ready to take a nap.
However, when he saw Qi Tongwei taking out four urns, he couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Is this... a vengeful spirit? It's quite powerful! Brother, do you know how to raise ghosts? Be careful not to be attacked by the vengeful spirit!"
Including the cultivation level given by the tree demon, Xiao Zhuo and the others’ cultivation level has exceeded a hundred years.
For a cultivator, this is not considered weak, and is considered a demon or monster that has become a spirit.
