Yinshan Record

Chapter 805 Testing the Mysteries of Transformation (Part 2)

"Transformation?"

Hanako Ryu's brows relaxed slightly. Su Che could roughly conclude that this senior brother didn't have much real understanding of the mysteries of the dragon pupa and was mostly just acting as an intermediary.

That makes things easier.

"In Buddhism, there is the six realms of reincarnation, and even more so, the distinction between womb, egg, moisture, and transformation. Senior brother, haven't you ever heard of an old tree conceiving a woman, or a spirit stone transforming into an ape?"

Su Che looked at Hua Ziliu and continued, "The various Yin Demons that my Holy Sect relies on, and even the endless Heavenly Demons in the outer void, are all creations."

"Of course I know. Are you saying that this dragon pupa is a kind of evil spirit?"

Hanako Ryu stared at the wax pellet in Su Che's hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"It's somewhat like Gu magic, but I've never actually seen it before. I still need to know its true nature before I can further refine pills and medicines. If you see this as a big deal, senior brother, why not let me see the source of this product? All future dealings will go through you. At least let me see the origin of this product before I can truly get started."

Su Che said a lot, and Hanako Ryu pondered for a moment before continuing.

"Junior brother is indeed a great expert in alchemy. His insight alone surpasses that of his elder brother. How about I contact them and arrange a meeting with you another day?"

“That’s settled then. I wonder if Senior Brother has finished using the portion of the Records of All Heavens that he used for the Demon Lord of the Extinction of Law and the Demon King of the Heavenly Joy of the Sacrifice of Juntian? If he has finished reading it, I can take it with me, so that this trip won’t have been in vain.”

"Isn't that going too far? You only come to me when you need something, and you don't come when you don't. That won't do." Hua Ziliu looked at Su Che and said, "Don't think that just because Helian Qianqiu and I are both disciples of Master Lingkong, we can truly be more comfortable with each other. I'm more comfortable with my junior brother."

"Senior brother, there's no need for such formalities."

"You rascal, fine, I'll have someone move the books over there for you right away. They also sent over a few bottles of aged wine, so I'll move those to your Lingyu Palace as well."

Hanako Ryu then saw the guest off again, but finally added a final remark.

“Junior brother, if Patriarch Ma Yi is too busy to accept you as a disciple, how about I make the decision for you to directly become a disciple of Master Ling Kong? What do you think?”

"Senior brother, you shouldn't make such jokes. Even if I were willing to switch sects, wouldn't Hua Gu and the others eat me alive?"

Su Che waved his hand in thanks before leaving.

Back in the Lingyu Hall, several more days passed in the monotonous routine of meditation and alchemy. There was nothing much to do except for Sun Cheng coming to report on matters large and small within the sect.

If there were any gains, besides refining two more external pills, it was carefully reading through the records of the Demon Lord of the Extinction of Laws in the Records of All Heavens.

According to the above statement, this Demon Lord of the Extinction of Laws has a long history. He was already renowned in the void before the establishment of the ancient Heavenly Court. He possesses profound magical power and profound demonic arts, and is a master of the laws of the void.

He commanded a small number of slaves, but those under his command were all exceptionally skilled, particularly adept at remote empowerment, and renowned for their mysterious and ancient nature in the outer void. Of course, he was extremely cautious in his actions, rarely contacting his followers directly. Since the founding of the Longevity Cult, unless there were fundamental matters at stake, he had completely ignored his followers.

In general, he was a mysterious Lord of the End of Dharma who had a reputation in the outer realms but rarely took action, and he was the opposite of the Mighty and Fearless Heavenly Demon King who traveled around causing trouble everywhere and eventually met his demise.

No wonder the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes could easily teleport back from the depths of the void, and no wonder he, with only the cultivation of a Longevity True Person, could travel so freely in the outer realms—it turns out that this person was in charge behind the scenes.

Since the Demon Lord of the Extinction of Laws is shrouded in mystery and rarely directly declares his will, it's no wonder that the Wrathful Heaven said that the state on his body was left by this Demon Lord.

There is a clear trend right now.

That is, is it possible that Venerable Lingkong's lineage intentionally betrayed them? Hua Ziliu suddenly remembered to study the worship method of the Demon Lord Juntian Guangle, and he also has many connections with Bailudong. Obviously, he is plotting something.

Alas, if the venerable Yin-Yang Dharma King were still alive, he would surely have some solutions.

Thinking of this, Su Che couldn't help but reminisce about how good this person was.

Thinking about this person's style of doing things, Su Che felt that he needed to make some changes, to secretly plot against the Hanako-ryu, and to see what they were really up to.

Suddenly, Sun Cheng arrived.

"Reporting to the Palace Master, Chief Jin Yunu has arrived, saying she has important matters to discuss with you."

Jin Yunu? What important matter could she possibly have to do?

Su Che muttered to himself.

"Please come in quickly."

The palace doors opened, and a soft laugh rang out from outside.

Jin Yunu, dressed in her finest attire, entered with a smile before speaking. "Junior brother, your life here is rather austere, with no one keeping you company as you toil away all day."

"It's nothing compared to my senior sister, who has someone who cares about me and keeps me company."

Su Che looked at Jin Yunu curiously and asked, "What brings you here today?"

“I’m just destined to toil. My master sent me here to be punished because I talk too much, and he wants to make up for those hundreds of lashes.”

She looked at Su Che with a smile: "Junior brother, please don't be so polite."

"I couldn't bring myself to do it."

Su Che shook his head: "Senior Sister is such a beautiful woman, she should be cherished. How can you only cherish her and not love her?"

"Sometimes you fall in love when you feel pain, and love naturally brings pain."

Jin Yunu's eyes flickered, but she carefully sat down next to Su Che.

“I heard someone say that my junior brother recently met with Hanako Ryu.”

"It's all for the Demon Lord's important matter."

Su Che looked at Jin Yunu, but she moved closer and closer.

"Did you come here to ask about this, senior sister?"

"I'm here to remind you to be careful. It's not just Mai who has those kinds of thoughts; Venerable Lingkong hasn't been idle all these years either."

"Senior sister is indeed incredibly resourceful. She already knew the results of my painstaking thinking over the past few days."

"Small? You're anything but small-minded."

Jin Yunu quietly moved closer, wrapped her arms around Su Che's arm, and leaned against her chest.

“We must help each other. Mai is capable of anything for herself. How did Fakong die back then? Don’t think that having the Demon Lord’s mark is some kind of get-out-of-jail-free card. It might just be your death warrant.”

If this person hadn't leaned so close, Su Che would have truly thought that Jin Yunu was there to threaten him.

"It's best not to speak too definitively."

Su Che didn't stand on ceremony with her and directly reached into her bosom.

"Senior sister came to see me today, could it be to offer alms to your junior brother?"

“Not bad, today we’re offering alms to the monks.” Jin Yunu giggled, then rolled up her legs and climbed up.

The soft, agar-like flesh pressed against me.

"Senior sister, it's not good that Hua Gu knows about it."

"So what if she finds out? I'm not going to pretend with you today. What I hate most is her androgynous attitude. Brother, let's not be polite to each other today. Let's settle this first, and then we'll talk about other things."

"I must remain chaste."

“I’ve been holding on for many years now. In this situation, we all need to make a guarantee to each other. Let’s use our innocence as a witness so that we can truly support and help each other in the future.”

"So, Senior Sister came to form an alliance."

Su Che flipped over and knocked her to the ground.

"Then it seems we need to give them a good lashing."

"If you have the ability, junior brother, I'll give you ten thousand, let alone two hundred."

Jin Yunu gritted her teeth and said, "Hurry up and do it. We need to give an explanation."

"That's offensive."

"Why be so polite in this situation?"
