Chapter 621: Refining the Demon

The strange human-shaped shadow reached out and grabbed it. The old man in the tree hole groaned, suddenly flew up, and fell heavily to the ground. There was a painful expression on his face. He stared at the shadow and shouted: "My heart." Devil, don’t even think about defeating me!”

Xuying snorted coldly, and the sound he made was like coming from the netherworld, which made people's hair stand on end. He said viciously: "My lord, give up your resistance. I will cut off your hands and feet. The next step is to dig out your eyes and cut your tongue." , beat your muscles and peel off your skin until you surrender."

"Haha..." the old man laughed, "My body is your body. You are just a wisp of evil thoughts in my heart. Without this body, you will also die."

"Hmph! You don't cry until you see the coffin!" Xuying was furious, and a snake-shaped sword appeared in his hand and stabbed forward.

"Sen!"

With a wave of sword energy, he cut off the old man's little finger. After the little finger was cut off, it actually didn't bleed, and there was crystal clear flesh inside. Seeing this scene, Zhang Jun was secretly shocked, what kind of physique is this?

The old man's expression did not change and he said loudly: "Inner demon! You are just a demon on my path of cultivation. I will refine you sooner or later. Don't be complacent!"

Zhang Jun was even more shocked. A thought of this old man could manifest itself in the real world and form a humanoid monster with autonomous consciousness. This shows that he has reached the level of manifesting the saint! In other words, he is stepping on the threshold of becoming a saint, but now he encounters inner demons. Is this the disaster for those with supernatural powers? terrible!

The shadow was furious, roared loudly, and struck the old man's left ear with his sword.

"Sen!"

The old man's left ear fell to the ground in response, but there was still no blood.

Zhang Jun couldn't stand it any longer. He thought for a while and took out the Demonic Pestle from the leather bag on his waist. He thought that the Demonic Pestle had collected eight fighting spirits. He didn't know if he could defeat this demon. Thinking of his experience in the Demon Realm, he felt that the Demon-Subduing Pestle was quite majestic and might be able to suppress the opponent.

After pondering for a while, seeing that the devil was about to chop off the old man's other ear, he shouted loudly and said, "Hey, are you done yet?"

As he spoke, he held the Demon-Conquering Pestle in his hand and strode over, his eyes wide open, ready to activate the pestle at any time to respond to the enemy.

The shadow suddenly turned around, and its translucent face became clear at this moment, but it was not very stable yet. He stared at Zhang Jun fiercely: "Little baby, don't worry about me, or I will kill you with one sword."

"Kill me?" Zhang Jun grinned, and as soon as his mind moved, he heard a "buzz" sound, and a white light emerged from the magic pestle, looming. The white light resembled a lotus flower, which suddenly bloomed. Seven rays of white light rose from the flower's stamens, rushed into the air, and turned into seven fighting spirits.

These seven fighting spirits guarded Zhang Jun, each of them filled with murderous intent and fighting spirit.

Xuying's expression changed and he shouted: "Dharma Protector!"

When the old man saw Zhang Jun, he originally wanted him to leave to avoid any accidents. However, when he saw the Demon Subduing Pestle in Zhang Jun's hand and the method he used to use it, his eyes lit up slightly, as if he thought of something. However, he did not speak and remained silent.

Zhang Juncai didn't know what a "Dharma Protector" was, but since this thing could bluff the opponent, it meant it was pretty powerful. He took a few steps forward, stood with the old man, and said loudly: "Devil, you'd better leave immediately, otherwise I will use the magic method to suppress you and kill you directly!"

"What a joke!" the devil said in a contemptuous tone, "How dare you, a little monk, threaten this devil! In front of me, you are almost like an ant. If it weren't for that pestle protecting you, I would be dead!"

The old man suddenly laughed and said to the shadow: "Devil, are you blind? You and I are both wise, don't say you don't recognize that this is the most precious Buddhist pestle."

The phantom suddenly shook a few times, and then snorted heavily: "So what? This junior can't use it at all."

"Really?" Zhang Jun grinned and was in a particularly good mood. He could tell from the old man's tone that this magic pestle should be able to restrain the devil.

As soon as he thought, the seven war spirits purified by the Buddha's light suddenly roared like thunder. Carrying billions of golden lights, they suddenly pounced towards the demon. The devil was furious. He swayed and suddenly grew to a height of more than ten meters. Then he opened his mouth and swallowed the seven war spirits in one bite.

After swallowing the fighting soul, he burped, then laughed wildly and asked the old man: "How?"

A smile appeared on the old man's face and he said, "You are so bold that you even ate the Buddhist protector." After saying that, his demeanor suddenly changed.

Before, he seemed listless and physically weak. But at this time, his energy and spirit actually reached their strongest state, forcing Zhang Jun to retreat continuously, not daring to get too close to him.

The devil was surprised and shouted: "You have been pretending!"

"Devil, you are just a wisp of evil thoughts from me. Even if it doesn't work, I can fight you to a draw. Over the years, the reason why I have always shown weakness and swallowed my anger is just to wait for the opportunity. If you swallow the protector, at least you will have to wait for the opportunity. Allocate 10% of the magic power to refine and suppress them. Do you think the hand in this state is still my opponent?"

Zhang Jun rolled his eyes. The old man looked kind-hearted, but he didn't expect him to be so cunning.

The devil was startled and shouted repeatedly: "It's just empty talk, let's fight!"

The scene suddenly became bright, which made Zhang Jun unable to open his eyes. He could only turn his head. Then a strong storm rolled up, which even his strong physique could not withstand, and he was swept hundreds of meters away.

In mid-air, he vomited out a mouthful of blood and said in his heart: "Sage-level supernatural beings are too scary!"

He didn't know how long it took, but he felt a sense of comfort and woke up immediately. When he opened his eyes, he saw the old man sitting aside with a smile, and he was sleeping on a pile of hay. The hay was soft, thin, and exuded a fragrance.

He sat up immediately and asked: "Senior, where is the devil?"

"The devil has been killed by me, you don't have to worry." The old man said with a smile. His temperament was so different from before that it was completely invisible to people.

Zhang Jun breathed a sigh of relief and said repeatedly: "That's good!" Then he discovered that the old man's legs and feet were back to normal, and even the fallen ears were reattached, as if he had not been injured.

He sighed with emotion: "Supernatural people really have incredible methods. Even with my medical skills, I can't achieve such perfection."

The old man smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "How are you, a supernatural being? Look, I was almost killed by my own inner demon in order to attack the Holy Spirit. If I hadn't met you, I don't know how many years or months I would have been able to get rid of it. It was even possible. Swallowed by it, you will completely fall into the devil's path."

Zhang Jun became more energetic and asked: "Senior, will inner demons arise if you break through to the Holy Realm?"

"Most of them are like that." The old man replied, "A saintly person can manifest his soul in the human world, turn stones into gold, water into oil, every thought and every word, every word and every cause and effect. Because of this, it is easy to have inner demons. , if you give out a thought, you may become a devil and harm others and yourself. "

What else did Zhang Jun want to ask? The old man said: "Now that I have refined my inner demons and my merits are complete, it's time to go back. Little baby, I want to thank you very much today. I owe you a favor."

At this point, he handed a green leaf to Zhang Jun and said with a smile: "Every favor must be repaid. When you encounter a big crisis in the future, you can put the leaf to your mouth and scream. If you shout the word 'Escape', I can help you escape from danger; if you say 'kill', I can help you kill your enemies; if you say 'suppress', I can help you suppress your opponents. Remember, you can only use it once. After one time, we no longer owe each other any more.”

After saying that, without waiting for Zhang Jun to speak, he flashed and disappeared. Zhang Jun stared blankly at the leaves in his hands, feeling happy and envious at the same time. He knew that this old man might be the incarnation of a certain Taoist Lord.

"It's incredible to interfere with the real world with your mind!" He murmured to himself.

At this moment, half a day had passed since he broke up with Ouyang Ningjing and others. He immediately got up and left to join them. Ten minutes later, the two sides met.

Seeing him coming back, Ouyang Jingping quickly asked: "Brother Zhang, have you found grandpa?"

Zhang Jun nodded: "I saw him and healed his injury. However, after he recovered from his injury, he left without saying where he was going."

Ouyang Jingping was a little disappointed, but more happy, saying: "Great! This makes me feel at ease."

The four of them spent another half day on the Shenxian Mountain. They went down when it was getting dark. Then they stayed at a farmer's house for the night and set off again the next day. This time, they are going to see Chu Shenzhen.

Chu Shenzhen has lived in seclusion for a long time and rarely goes out. His place is located on a small peak in Luliang Mountain, with three thatched houses and a few tables and chairs, very simple. This miraculous doctor did not even want to live with his children, and those who sought treatment from him had to climb over mountains and ridges to climb up the hill where he was.

It was already two days after the four of them arrived at Luliang Mountain. The mountain road was really difficult to walk. Ouyang Jingping was very tired and had to rest for a day before continuing. Zhang Jun had no choice but to temporarily stay in a small county town, preparing to meet Chu Shenzhen the next day.

This small county is called Yunhua, with a population of 100,000. There is a coal mine in the county, and the economy is prosperous. It is said that it is one of the top 100 counties in the country. A five-star hotel was built in the small county town, and Zhang Jun was naturally prepared to move in. It's not that he is greedy for enjoyment, it's because Ouyang Ningjing is very tired and needs a good rest. The conditions of the five-star hotel are better.

However, when several people walked into the hotel, they were told that the hotel was full and there was no room available. Ouyang Jingping immediately grimaced and said, "It's over, it seems we have to find a hotel again."

At this moment, a beauty in a long dress walked up, and Zhang Jun discovered that there was a very small mark on the corner of her skirt, which was extremely inconspicuous. If he didn't have excellent eyesight, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

The beauty in the long skirt walked to the counter, and the front desk lady immediately said respectfully: "Manager Wei."

Zhang Jun turned to Ouyang Jingping, smiled, and said, "We don't have to change places." After that, he walked towards Manager Wei.

When he got closer, he made a complicated gesture, interlacing his fingers.

Manager Wei took a look, his expression changed, he nodded slightly and said, "Sir, how can I help you?"

Zhang Jun smiled "haha": "We wanted to stay in the hotel, but it seems that you are full."

"It doesn't matter. We have several emergency high-end suites for you to use. Please come with me." After saying that, she took the key and walked towards the elevator with Zhang Jun and others.
