Chapter 249 Mission 023

The furious Northland Demon King attacked with anger, and his attack was earth-shattering. A huge black palm print covered the sky and sun, and fell from the sky towards Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan, who was locked by the will of the Northland Demon King, could not move. Looking at the palm print falling towards him, he remembered the embarrassing resistance of the White Snake Demon under the suppression of the Lingbao Buddha beads before, and smiled bitterly in his heart. He really underestimated the power of the demon king of this world.

When Xiao Yan was about to resist the attack of the Northland Demon King with all his strength, and then use the Great Teleportation Jade Talisman given to him by the Buddha Sect Master to escape from Cuimang Mountain, a golden giant palm with clear palm lines, which was much larger than the black palm print, slapped the black palm print. Under the Buddha's light, the endless evil spirit wrapped around the black palm print melted and disappeared like snow meeting the morning sun.

After the golden giant palm slapped the black palm print, it continued to slap the projection clone of the Northland Demon King below.

The fierce and majestic figure of the Northland Demon King suddenly disappeared under the golden giant palm. The original ruins of Cuimang Mountain could not be seen at all, and only a deep palm print pit remained.

Seeing this huge reversal, the white snake demon was stunned and couldn't believe it, but Xiao Ying shouted in surprise: "Master!"

The one who just made the move was the timely arrival of the Buddhist Sect Master, Kong Jue's master. And the move that the Buddhist Sect Master used to suppress the projection of the Northland Demon King was also the famous Tathagata Palm, which is the signature move of the Buddhist Sect Master and is said to be inherited from the Tathagata Buddha.

A compassionate old monk appeared silently beside Xiao Ying, it was the Buddhist Sect Master!

Compared with the cool appearance of the Tathagata Palm, the appearance of the Buddhist Sect Master can be said to be ordinary, but no one dared to underestimate this seemingly ordinary old monk.

A black smoke emerged from the deep palm print pit and condensed into a human form again, but this human form was fainter and less shaped than the projection of the Northland Demon King before. If it weren't for the iconic scarlet beast pupil, it would be hard to tell that this seemingly ordinary black smoke was the projection clone of the previously ferocious Demon King.

Xiao Ying saw that the projection clone of the Northland Demon King was almost condensed and not completely dissipated after being hit by the Buddha Sect's palm. He wanted to kill him while he was sick and take action to eliminate the last bit of the Northland Demon King's clone.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the Buddha Sect's leader. Xiao Ying could only watch the projection clone of the Northland Demon King just came out of the palm print pit and quickly rolled up the seriously injured white snake demon and fled without saying a word.

Xiao Ying looked at the leader of the Buddhist sect in confusion: "Master, why don't you chase them? That white snake monster likes to eat living people, has killed countless people, and has committed many evil deeds. How can you let it escape like this?" If he were to kill the monster, he would have to kill it thoroughly. Wouldn't it be asking for trouble if he let it go after seriously injuring it?

The leader of the Buddhist sect just said indifferently: "Amitabha, it is not easy for the white snake demon to practice for nearly two thousand years, and it has never harmed the disciples of the Buddhist sect. What's wrong with letting it go? Moreover, the relationship between the white snake demon and the Northland Demon King is unusual. If you want to kill it, you will have an irreconcilable feud with the Northland Demon King."

Xiao Ying fell silent. He couldn't figure out what kind of relationship between the white snake demon and the Northland Demon King could make the Northland Demon King willing to make a deadly feud with him, the disciple of the Buddhist sect leader, for a white snake. The so-called sworn brotherhood of the monsters is really cheap. There are also cases where the monster king pulls the little monster to swear brotherhood after drinking too much. So he doesn't believe that the relationship between the Northland Demon King and the white snake demon is a sworn brotherhood that is uploaded on the surface. But the Buddhist sect leader said so. Obviously, if he wants to kill the white snake demon, he must face the Northland Demon King. His cheap master just stopped him, probably because he didn't want to make an enemy with the Northland Demon King, who is comparable to a human fairy, for a white snake demon.

But Xiao Ying was silent not because of these. He was thinking about what the Buddhist Sect Master said just now, 'It has never harmed Buddhist disciples, so what if it is let go?'... The white snake demon has killed countless people. Just because it harmed ordinary mortals and not Buddhist disciples, can it be let go? Can its sins be ignored?

Xiao Ying couldn't figure it out. Don't people in the Buddhist Sect always say that they are compassionate and save all living beings? But looking at the behavior of the Buddhist Sect Master just now, it has nothing to do with these two words.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Xiao Ying fell silent, but the Buddhist Sect Master took this opportunity to talk about the Northland Demon King.

It turned out that the Northland Demon King was a white bear in the extreme north. He had ordinary roots, but he had thousands of years of cultivation and extraordinary strength. But the Northland Demon King was a homebody bear. He always stayed in the deserted extreme north and rarely came out. It became famous in the human world because of the white snake demon.

The white snake demon was actually the lover of the Northland Demon King before he became the Demon King. Although both demons were male, the Northland Demon King was infatuated with the white snake demon. The white snake demon disliked that there were no people living in the Far North. It liked to eat people alive, so it wanted to leave the Far North. Since the Northland Demon King's true body was a white bear in the Far North, he had to stay in the Far North if he wanted to practice, so he couldn't accompany the white snake demon to leave the Far North. The white snake demon secretly escaped by himself, came to the mortal city and ate living people wantonly, attracting the attention of the mortal empire, and was injured by a cultivator invited by the mortals to kill demons.

The white snake demon fled back to the Far North in a panic. When the Northland Demon King learned the truth, he was furious and killed the cultivator who injured the white snake demon.

The cultivator was also backed by a large sect. Although it was not as high as the Buddhist sect, it was not bad except for the lack of a human immortal-level strongman. However, the Demon King of the North broke into the sect and wiped out the entire family, which immediately established the Demon King of the North's notoriety.

But this was more than nine hundred years ago, so only those major sects or well-informed practitioners know about the relationship between the White Snake Demon and the Demon King of the North. A novice grass-headed god like Tudigong who has only been in the business for hundreds of years can only know the most superficial information.

"It is said that the Demon King of the North is so powerful that he can only survive under the hands of the powerful human immortals. But that was more than nine hundred years ago. When a large sect was destroyed by the Demon King of the North, the powerful human immortals thought I wanted to get rid of it, but it escaped. Now that more than nine hundred years have passed, the strength of the Demon King of the North must have increased a lot, and I am afraid that he has already reached the realm of human immortals." The master of the Buddha Sect looked at the deep palm print pit. Sighing slightly, "Although I didn't use my full strength with that palm just now, the fact that a mere projection clone of it was able to survive and escape with the white snake demon is enough to explain everything. I am about to live for a long time, or I will die in a few hundred years." To ascend to the Heavenly Spiritual Mountain, it is not appropriate to offend the Demon King of the North at the moment..."

Xiao Yu listened silently. In fact, he understood the pros and cons that the Buddha Sect Master said, but he always felt that it was a bit difficult to accept it from the Buddha Sect Master's mouth.

Probably because he was influenced by the memory of the original master Kongjue who respected his master very much, so he felt disappointed in his heart when he saw that the master of the Buddhist sect was not so righteous.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

After the head of the Buddha Sect left, Xiao Yu once again embarked on a journey of experience.

As for the behavior of the Buddhist sect leader letting the white snake demon go in order to avoid a major conflict with the North Demon King, Xiao Yu can also understand it from his perspective. After all, the leader of the Buddhist sect has not yet become a Buddha. He is still just a human being. He will naturally have selfish motives and will think about issues and make choices for the benefit of his sect. It cannot be said that he is afraid of the Demon King of the North. It is just a compromise made after weighing the pros and cons. It is an inevitable problem for leaders of large forces.

Xiao Yu continued his journey. This time he specifically asked for a map of the entire human world from the head of the Buddhist sect. This map, which was as detailed as every powerful monster's territory in every village, was considered a valuable treasure because the entire human world was The world is too big. Even if this map was drawn by a practitioner, it would still require many practitioners to work together to draw it completely. It is also updated and revised every year. Only a big force like the Buddha Sect has such courage.

With the map in hand, Xiao Yu naturally stopped looking for a random direction and walked in the direction of human settlements.

Cuimang Mountain belongs to the corner of the Buddhist sect's sphere of influence. It is said to be relatively desolate and Buddhist disciples rarely come here. It refers to the desolation with thin spiritual energy. Mortals don't need to choose a place with abundant spiritual energy to practice, so if you walk further, you can see people living there. Because the spiritual energy in this area is thin, there are few practitioners and monsters. There are few monsters, so many humans who suffer from monsters naturally choose to live here. Otherwise, the white snake demon who likes to eat people will not choose Cuimang Mountain as a cave. Naturally, it is for the convenience of catching people for food, and I don’t worry about encountering nosy practitioners.

Xiao Yu found the location of Cuimang Mountain that had been moved to flat ground on the map, then followed the direction to see where there were villages, and headed in that direction.

Before reaching the entrance of the village, Xiao Yu stopped and did not go inside. He said very politely to the curious villagers who came over: "The poor monk traveled around the world and passed by here. Seeing that it was getting late, he wanted to borrow a place to stay. ”

One of the villagers surrounding him immediately said happily: "Little Master! If you don't mind my family being small, then you can live in my house!"

Demons are rampant in the world, and ordinary mortals have no power to protect themselves, so they place their hopes on gods and Buddhas. Among them, Buddhism is very popular, and monks are also very respected.

So Xiao Yu, who was dressed as a monk, said he wanted to stay overnight, and the villagers invited him to stay at their home.

Xiao Yu was about to choose a random house to stay in for a night to renovate. The village chief came over and invited Xiao Yu to stay at his house. Thinking that this man was the village chief after all, it was hard for him to abandon his invitation and accept the invitation of a certain villager, so he agreed.
