Chapter 33: Buddhist Counterattack

After thinking for a long time, it suddenly occurred to me that basically all the creatures in this ghost place can be called bugs, and whether it is my candle bee or ghost beetle, they all belong to the category of bugs. I guess the reason why the monster didn't attack them was because it thought they were the indigenous people here, so it didn't attack them.

"Damn, why would I have gone to such trouble if I had known this?" Under my command, the ghost beetle and the candle bee worked closely together, and as expected, they successfully obtained the petals of the wisdom grass growing on the guy's head. That thing was extremely fierce when it dealt with me just now. I didn't expect that when there were only candle bees and ghost bugs, it was just like a piece of wood, and it completed the task smoothly. "Let's go!" After collecting the petals of the wisdom grass, I called out to the demon pets and prepared to escape. Who knew that the remaining Indian players were still planning to rob them by force. It's a pity that these guys can't protect themselves now, let alone rob them. , even chasing me is impossible. I was in a hurry to hand in the task, so I didn't waste time with them. I put away my magic pet and put on the flying bird to leave this terrifying swamp at high speed.

It was almost night when I returned to Essinger, but I couldn't care less about the time, so I teleported directly to the Heavenly Court. Who knew that as soon as I left the teleportation array at Nantianmen, I found a large group of heavenly soldiers there inside and outside? Running around and not knowing what I am doing.

"Hey, hey, hey..." I grabbed a heavenly soldier who passed by me and asked, "What happened? Are you all running around like headless flies?"

"Ah! It's President Ziri!" The heavenly soldier was also happy when he saw me, and then said quickly: "We have something big going on here. I can't explain it in a few sentences. You'd better go to Tianqing Palace as soon as possible. ! The Jade Emperor and the three classes of immortals are all there!"

I knew I couldn't get anything out of him if I caught the Heavenly Soldier, so after hearing what he said, I simply let him go and ran to the Azure Palace. Along the way, I was wondering why the gods in Heaven didn't stay in Lingxiao Palace but went to Tianqing Palace? It is said that the Lingxiao Palace is the place where the Jade Emperor handles matters in Heaven, but the Tianqing Palace is actually more like a prison in Heaven, but its name is more elegant.

As I ran all the way to Tianqing Palace, I noticed that there were a lot of immortals coming and going on the road. Many of them were being carried away by heavenly soldiers, but I didn't find any wounds on their bodies. It looked like they were caused by exhaustion due to excessive use of magic power. Ignoring these gods, I continued to run forward and soon arrived at Tianqing Palace. There is a large square outside the main hall that was originally used for military training, but now it looks like a field hospital. Groups of gods were carried out of the main hall and then placed in this square. There are several gods who are good at medical treatment. There, he examined these people one by one like a doctor, and then separated some of them to be carried away by the heavenly soldiers, while the rest were arranged to meditate on futons in the square. I couldn't figure out what they were doing, so I walked directly into the main hall. As long as you find those boss-level figures in Heaven, you can ask about anything.

After entering the main hall, I felt that the situation in front of me had changed dramatically. The buildings in Heaven basically use space spells, so the volume of a general house has little to do with the size it looks like from the outside. From the outside, the Tianqing Palace only looks like a thousand square meters, but when you go in, you see a huge building complex, which can be said to be a small town.

"Ziri, why are you back?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded next to me. When I turned around, I saw Mr. Polar Star meditating against a pillar. There were many futons next to him, and on each futon sat an immortal meditating, but I only knew Mr. Polaris, so I just nodded to him.

"What did you do?"

"It's not all the trouble caused by those Buddhist guys!"

"Buddhist? Are they coming to attack?"

"Attack? Just rely on them?" Mr. Polar Star said unconvinced: "Even if Heaven does not drive out all the Buddhist forces in China, Buddhism can only draw a tie with us. If we say it will hurt our fundamentals, That is simply a dream. What's more, now that Heaven has driven Buddhism out of China, without the help of the power of the earth here, their strength has declined greatly, how could they do us like this?"

"Then what are you...?"

"It's those Buddhist clones!" Polaris Lord said: "I don't know how it happened. The real bodies of Buddhism suddenly used a secret method to forcibly fuse the reincarnated clones, but the Tathagata's reincarnated clones were already quite powerful. , as a result, the forced fusion progressed slowly, so we had to support him and come to report to us, and then we dispatched all the gods in heaven to help suppress the power of forced fusion, but this fusion power uses the power of law. It is very difficult to suppress them with our magic power alone, and the result is like this!"

"Can the reborn clone be forcibly fused?"

"Yes, the reborn clone can not only be forcibly fused, but can also assist in cultivation. In fact, the Buddhist clone is similar to our Taoist clone cultivation method, but Buddhism has modified it in many places, and even its use has changed. . Our Taoist sect has a method of cultivating clones, which is to separate one or several clones from your own soul, and then let the clones fight or practice and absorb the energy of heaven and earth. Because they are individuals separated from the main soul, these The clones are exactly the same as the main soul in terms of qualifications and talents, which means that each clone has the cultivation speed of the main soul."

"Damn! Doesn't that mean how many times the cultivation speed can be achieved by dividing as many clones as you like?"

"It's not that exaggerated, but that's what it means. After the clone has practiced independently for a period of time, the main soul can use secret methods to forcibly take it back. Then after the clone merges with the main soul, the main soul can obtain what the clone has gained through cultivation. The power, but this process involves a certain amount of loss. It does not mean that the clone can obtain as much as the master spirit absorbs. However, this is much faster than practicing alone, and if there are enough clones, it can even reach hundreds. Increase the speed of cultivation by thousands of times."

"Damn, is this too exaggerated?"

"It is not an exaggeration. Because that is theoretical data. The real situation is that after the soul is separated, whether it is the main soul or the clone, its soul will become quite fragile, and sometimes a clone will be separated from the main soul. The body completely inherits certain characteristics, which means that the clone takes away some of the characteristics of the main spirit. For example, a Taoist friend of mine once used this method. As a result, the clone took away his feelings after being separated. After being brought out, the avatar became particularly sentimental, and his main soul completely lost his emotions. In the end, he lost his goal of survival because his behavior was too rational, and finally became a god of heaven. Part of it. So it is actually quite dangerous to use this method to clone yourself, and it does not mean that you can continue to clone without limit. If the clone can drive the body, it must have a certain strength, and the main spirit must not be cloned Anti-devouring requires more than the clone, so no matter how it is divided, the main soul only needs to retain more than 50% of the soul. Because the clone will also strengthen the soul during the cultivation process, so for the sake of safety, practitioners usually only dare to use Less than 30% of the soul is used to create a clone, and this 30% is not used on a clone. However, the strength of a person's soul is always limited. Even if it is strengthened after practice, it cannot be enhanced without limit, so it can only Using 30% of the soul to make a clone and ensuring the minimum soul value of the clone, the number of clones that can actually be created is actually quite limited. With the strength of Tathagata, the strongest soul in Buddhism, I estimate that at most, I can make Just three to five clones.”

"Oh, that's it. So if Tathagata absorbs our Ruolai, wouldn't his strength suddenly increase a lot?"

"That's right! That's why we put so much effort into preventing him from successfully absorbing it!"

"But why is Tathagata so powerful at absorbing clones? Can't so many of you suppress it?"

Mr. Polar Star paused and said: "It's not all Tathagata. In fact, everyone in Buddhism is using secret methods to take back their clones at the same time, which is why we are in such a mess. Moreover, the clones and the main spirit are originally one. , once the secret method is used to restore it, it is equivalent to complying with the way of heaven, so this power of fusion is extremely powerful. When we suppress the magic power of Buddhist members, it is equivalent to fighting against the way of heaven at the same time, so it is so hard. However, It should not be difficult for the Buddhist side. After all, normally, the absorption of clones for fusion should be completed face to face at a relatively close distance. Their absorption from such a distance is very limited. Otherwise, they would have to rely on the strength of people like us. If you have the strength to fight against the way of heaven, it is basically like seeking death."

After listening to Polaris-kun’s explanation, I suddenly thought of my mission. "By the way, doesn't that Tathagata's clone have a way to break this connection? Do you have all the materials ready?"

"That's right!" Mr. Polar Star seemed to suddenly remember something and jumped up and grabbed my arm and asked, "I heard that there are only two things missing at the end. Didn't you go find them? Did you bring them back?"

"I brought the Wisdom Grass back. The powder shed by the hybrid flower demon is already being collected, but I'm not sure how much it is yet."

"Send us as many as you can! We are all like this. If you send some first to unlink a few clones, at least we can free up more manpower for shifts!"

"That's right, I'll do it right away."

Since the situation was so urgent, I couldn’t do it slowly. I quickly ran into the core area of ​​Tianqing Palace and handed the Wisdom Grass to Taishang Laojun. Without waiting for him to ask, I directly told Mr. Polaris’ proposal, and then he He also hurriedly urged me to get the powder from the mixed-race flower demon. I had no choice but to run to Europe again to get the powder. Who knew I would run into trouble as soon as I arrived at the first settlement of the mixed-race flower demon!
