Chapter 467 Peach (1/2)
What the middle-aged letter delivery man heard was real. There were two peaches; the one that was taken by the white crane was the Daoist. While he was an unusual object, after going through many challenges, he finally achieved enlightenment under Xuanmen.
His Mana however was not as deep as his elder brother, as ultimately he took in blood and flesh of living beings. The cumulation of Mana allowed him to go through the trial of thunder. One could imagine the level of Mana the elder brother possessed.
Fortunately, the Daoist was from Xuanmen and hence he had other divine response. It was not impossible for him to beat the elder brother to save the living beings on the Seven Peaches Mountain. The woodcutters' Qi on Seven Peaches Mountain had disturbed them when they were young. Given that now he had become a real demon, for the greatest satisfaction, he would definitely take revenge on the human of Seven Peaces Mountain. The living beings of the mountain too had to suffer without a reason.
Because of the unintentional words of the middle-aged letter delivery man, they had eliminated the last strand of possibility for the evil to be good.
The Daoist was not willing to allow this to happen. Furthermore, the elder brother had the idea to swallow him for replenishment.
There was a thick demon fog ahead. One could hear the endless scream of living beings. The fog spread to a larger area, and every inch of the ground was soiled by the blood of the living beings.
The Daoist made up his mind to step into the demon fog. He was protected by the divine light of Tai Qing. In the depth of the fog, there were two people. One of them was the owner of the tea shop, and the other was the storytelling elder.
The owner of the tea shop was the evil thought, but the storytelling teller was the good part his elder brother possessed. However, the elder was now withered, but the owner of the tea shop looked energetic.
His cold eyes stared at the Daoist from head to toe. The enormous pressure made the Daoist realize that after going through the trial of thunder, the demonic power was even stronger. Even though he was protected by the divine light of Tai Qing, he still could not stop the demonic power from invading.
The owner of the tea shop sneered, ”My seventh younger brother. Long time no see.”
The Daoist calmed down, and said, ”Elder brother, today I will grant the wish for all my other brothers.”
The tea shop owner began to laugh wildly, ”Just by you? Luck is on my side. You have to know that if not because that human was dumb, he would not allow me to become a real demon. There is no such rule that says that I have to become a human after I obtain a human form. The divines and the demons all have a human form, but do they think they are the lowly human? Ridiculous.”
The Daoist spoke slowly, ”Elder brother, you're wrong. Humans are not lowly. You haven't been to Da Xia. There are some people there who are more terrifying than divines or demons. You haven't been to Yin Shang, there are other Qi cultivators who are much more powerful than me. The heaven and earth place a great deal of fortitude on humans. For the Gods who do not get approval from Emperor Xia for sacrificial rituals, they can only become demonic gods without ever being recognized. Only by getting close to humans, blending in with them and following the morals, we can then have access to the fundamentals of power. Please stop being stubborn.”
The tea shop owner spoke in disdain, ”I believe in power, and the fundamental of power is that the truth lies with the person with the strongest fist. So what if you get a human form? Do you dare to tell the dumb fools you are just a peach?”
The Daoist sighed, and all of a sudden his hands went through thousands of transformation and countless formulas were released. The techniques formed into a flooding stream that broke through the demonic power of the fog and it went straight for the tea shop owner.
All the demons retracted, with some color of blood, they dispelled the techniques easily.
During that gap, the Daoist pinched his nose and opened his mouth. A fire dragon was let out, and it was Daoist's True Samadhi Fire. Although the power was not even a hundredth of the real True Samadhi Fire, the fog was still unable to extinguish it. It began to burn.
There were ways to extinguish the True Samadhi Fire, like for someone like Shen Lian, he could use the divine thought to eliminate the fire meaning of the True Samadhi Fire, and disturbed the connection between the essence, Qi and spirit and extinguish the fire easily. However, the tea shop owner was definitely not one of them.
He could feel the inextinguishable fire on him. He made a decision to stop considering for what could be the consequences. As the demon fog gathered towards the fog, they exploded. All of a sudden within a perimeter of two miles, one could feel the shocking wave. The letter delivery man who did not go away was impacted by the wave. His body was torn apart and he was dead.
The Daoist did not have time to care whether the letter delivery man was dead or alive. His daoist robe was a mess. He was dusty, and his face was like a burnt charcoal. He took out a gourd and he removed the cork. With the opening facing the tea shop owner, he shouted, ”Elder brother.”
