Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 433: Disaster is coming

The dog-skinned Taoist opened his mouth and uttered a weak sound.

"It's good to be back!"

Lin Beixuan could hear the reluctance of the Taoist Dog Skin from his words.

He forced a smile from the corner of his mouth, and his skinny chest twitched like a bellows, indicating that he had used up all his strength.

Lin Beixuan walked forward and Tao Tao immediately moved a stool over from the side.

After Lin Beixuan sat down, he looked up and down at the Taoist Dog Skin and communicated with the spirit of the Xuanhuang Pagoda with his mind.

"Ajiu, can you still condense the Xuanhuang Dao Seed now?"

Ajiu's voice echoed in Lin Beixuan's mind: "If you refine the two secular gods that you suppressed in the tower, you can condense some Xuanhuang Dao seeds."

"Then refine them all!" Lin Beixuan said without hesitation.

After receiving the order, Ajiu smiled happily, and then the Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Tower began to emit a rich mysterious light, which went straight from the top of the tower to the bottom floor.

While in a layer of Xuanhuang Realm, the two gods and the God of Wrongful Death who were not yet dead looked upward in shock, with unwillingness in their eyes.

Until now, they still hope that the Evil Spirit Lord will come to rescue them.

However, the mysterious light completely covered the two gods and the god of wrongful death without any hesitation.

It was as if thick sulfuric acid was poured on a person's body, and the two secular gods immediately let out painful and miserable howls.

As secular gods, they had never experienced such pain, which was even more terrible than the punishment of hell they had imagined.

Their flesh and blood slowly melted under the mysterious light, but their wills remained clear, and the divine organ in their bodies continuously released divinity in an attempt to resist the erosion of their flesh and blood by the mysterious light.

But because of this, they could only endure the pain of their bodies dissolving.

Unfortunately, this resistance did not last long.

Under the illumination of the infinite mysterious light, the incense and temple in the bodies of the Twin Gods and the God of Wrongful Death all dissipated, and their bodies slowly turned into a pool of thick water on the ground.

And the place where the two gods stood before was left with only two divine organs and fragments of the essence of the divine realm.

"It's okay!" Ajiu shouted in Lin Beixuan's mind.

Lin Beixuan nodded upon hearing this, spread out his palms, and an illusory nine-story tower slowly rotated in his palms.

The mysterious and yellow energy emanated from the tower in wisps, like soft smoke rising up.

Tao Tao and many other alien leaders from Qingyun Village behind Lin Beixuan held their breath when they saw this scene.

At this time, they had already realized what Lin Beixuan wanted to do, and their eyes were full of surprise when they looked at the Dog Skin Taoist.

Taoist Goupi has a very high status in Qingyun Village, because it can be said that this group of aliens was organized bit by bit under the supervision of Taoist Goupi.

So when they saw that Lin Beixuan might have a way to save the Dog-skin Taoist, they were all extremely happy.

Gradually, a drop of crystal that looked like colored glass and was filled with a mysterious yellow aura flew out of the small tower and was gently held by Lin Beixuan's hand.

Lin Beixuan was planning to send the Xuanhuang Dao Seed into the Goupi Daoist's body, but at this moment, an old and thin hand suddenly pressed Lin Beixuan's wrist.

Taoist Goupi looked at Lin Beixuan with a tired look on his face, forced a smile and said, "Commander-in-chief, I would like you to not use such treasures on me, okay?"

Lin Beixuan frowned and looked up at the Taoist Dog Skin.

"You don't have to care whether this thing is rare or not. If it can cure you, then it's all worth it."

The dog-skin Taoist smiled and patted Lin Beixuan's wrist. He took a deep breath, and his face turned rosy as if he had a last burst of energy.

He waved at the strangers from Qingyun Village standing by the door, signaling them to go out, leaving Tao Tao in the room and asking her to watch the door.

"Sir... Whether this thing is useful to me or not, it doesn't really matter to me."

For the first time ever, the Taoist Gou Pi got down from the bed. Although his steps were slow, each step was solid and he showed no signs of falling.

He slowly walked to the window, stretched his neck and looked out at the vegetation that had turned lush green due to the continuous rain in recent days.

"It's so beautiful! My eyes haven't been as clear as they are today for a long time!"

Lin Beixuan stood behind the Goupi Taoist and asked silently, "Do you want to die?"

In fact, from the attitude of the Goupi Taoist in refusing to absorb the Xuanhuang Taoist Seed and the words he said at this time, Lin Beixuan vaguely felt what the other party was thinking.

The dog-skin Taoist slowly turned his head and said, "The one who knows me is the commander-in-chief!"

He shook his head, and his voice didn't sound like a normal conversation, but rather like he was singing in the dialect of his hometown.

Some of them are similar to Peking Opera, thin and long.

"Why?" Lin Beixuan asked.

The dog-skinned Taoist laughed, but as he laughed, his chest began to twitch violently and he let out a series of coughs.

Tao Tao rushed forward to help upon seeing this, but was forcefully pushed away by Taoist Goupi.

His gaze passed through the gaps between the emerald green leaves and gazed into the distance.

"My Lord, let me tell you a story about myself!"

The dog-skin Taoist stood there quietly, as if lost in memories.

"I was born in a small village in Yangtian County, Minzhou."

"My grandfather was the village chief, so I had better food, clothing and supplies than other children in the village since I was a child. In addition, I had a bad character and often bullied my playmates in the same village by relying on my family's power."

"Because of this, I basically had no friends since I was a child."

The dog-skin Taoist recounted his past, his expression seemed to be both crying and laughing, but overall it was all good.

"But until one day, I was wandering around the village and met a man."

At this point, the Taoist Goupi's tone became gloomy, and his eyes seemed to be filled with tremendous anger.

"I was so lonely at the time. Every time I went to the village entrance to play, that person would appear and bring me a lot of things that seemed delicious and fun at the time."

"I gradually let down my guard. He asked me a lot of questions about the village, such as where the ancestral hall was and which secular god we worshipped... and I stupidly told him everything!"

"As the man learned more, strange things began to happen in the village."

"The secular gods we worship have been blindfolded, and the tablets of all the villagers' ancestors placed in the ancestral hall have all been lost."

"At that time, the adults were frantically trying to find the root cause of the problem. They speculated that it was man-made. In fact, I knew in my heart at that time that it was most likely that person who did it, but I was afraid of being punished by my father and grandfather, so I didn't dare to tell the adults at home."

"Time passed day by day, but more and more strange things happened. Gradually... people started to disappear in the village!"

Taoist Gou Pi could no longer conceal his anger. He had always been a respected and calm elder in the eyes of the strange people in Qingyun Village, and no one had ever seen him like this.

Taoist Goupi said: "At first it was some young children, then it became the women in the village, and finally it even spread to young and middle-aged people."

"My grandfather found out that something bad has happened. Someone is digging up the roots of our clan!" A trace of fear began to appear in the eyes of the Taoist Dog Skin.

"But I know that this matter has reached a point where it cannot be handled. If I don't speak up, I'm afraid the whole village will be destroyed."

"So I stopped hiding it and confessed everything to my grandfather... the man's appearance, height, I told him everything."

"As expected, my grandfather was furious. He yelled at me with red eyes, asking why I told an outsider about what happened in the village. The other party is now using me as the cause to harm the entire village. If everyone dies, this huge cause and effect will eventually fall on me."

"I remember that day, my grandfather held my father in the room and talked to him all night. The next day, he severely punished me and made me reflect on my mistakes in the ancestral hall for 15 days. I was not allowed to enter without his permission. That was the last time I saw my family. My mother didn't stop him with red eyes."

"I was locked in a sealed ancestral hall, which contained enough food for me to eat for fifteen days. When the time is up, the door will open automatically."

“Although I will be staying in the dark temple for fifteen days, I know that it is because of me that the villagers are indirectly missing.”

"I accepted the punishment willingly, but when I came out, I found that everyone in the village had disappeared."

"They have all been turned into beasts!?" Lin Beixuan said with a frown.

"Yes! They were all made into beasts!"

The Taoist Goupi seemed to be recalling the scene at that time, and his whole body was trembling.

"I still can't forget that scene. The man was standing in a pool of blood, holding a skinning knife in his hand. The world around him was all blood. The ground and the roof were all covered with floating animal skins."

"He smiled and told me to look around and choose if I liked anything. These would be perfect for making clothes."

"I was so scared that I didn't dare to move, but I could clearly see that under those animal skins were people from my village."

"After I woke up, I turned around and ran. Strangely, that person didn't chase me. Instead, he looked at me and smiled..."

"What a pity, what a pity!" As he spoke, the Taoist Dog Skin suddenly laughed.

"Unfortunately, I still couldn't escape, and instead saw hell!"

The dog-skinned Taoist took a deep breath and turned to look at Lin Beixuan: "Sir, do you know what it looks like when a person is completely skinned naked?"

"It's just like during the Chinese New Year, when we slaughter a pig and hang the red meat on the beams waiting for the weather to dry."

"The eyes are bulging, the nostrils are sunken, and human teeth are so long!"

“My grandfather and his family were hanging in the front, just looking straight at me, their bodies swaying, as if telling me to hurry up.”

"My grandfather and his men locked me up in the ancestral hall so that I could temporarily avoid this danger. They gathered the strength of the entire village to face this demon."

"It's a pity that they were no match for the enemy and all died there!" Lin Beixuan said calmly.

"Yes, this is how the world is. Ghosts eat people, and people also eat people. If you don't have strength, you can't survive."

"Have you ever thought about reporting to the police?" Lin Beixuan asked puzzledly.

"At that time, the dynasties were just like today, in a chaotic world. In the eyes of the court, only the aristocratic families were considered human beings. What were we, the common people, considered?"

"The two states of Jiangxi and Fujian were the most chaotic during that period, because they were located along the coast, close to the South China Sea, and full of islands. Villages like ours, by the time they received attention from above, were often completely gone."

"It was not until later that I found out that the man who massacred our entire village was the Evil Spirit of Nanyang!"

When these words were spoken, not only Tao Tao, but even Lin Beixuan was shocked.

He didn't expect that the Evil Spirit Lord and the Dog Skin Taoist had this kind of connection.

"When you were a child, True Lord Evil Spirit was already a young man, so he must be over a hundred years old now? Can a human immortal live that long?" Tao Tao asked curiously.

The dog-skin Taoist shook his head: "For us humans, even if we become human immortals, we won't actually grow much older."

"But if it's a secular god, it's different!"

The Evil Spirit is not a human being.

In fact, Lin Beixuan already knew about this when he was fighting with the opponent.

The panel cannot be wrong. Since the panel has determined that Evil Spirit is a great secular god, it means that the other party cannot be a human being.

"Can humans become secular gods?" Tao Tao asked curiously.

The dog-skinned Taoist laughed, his laughter gradually turned from loud to hoarse, and his face turned from rosy to pale.

His life force was decreasing at a terrifying rate. At this moment, anyone could see that the Taoist Dog Skin would not live long.

“Even if you are a human immortal, you will only become a ghost after death. Your strength will be gone. If you want to become a secular god again, you can only cultivate again.”

"But if a person becomes evil, then he is no longer a human being."

"The methods practiced by the common people in the island countries of Southeast Asia are mostly the evil arts passed down from our dynasties. However, they are good at studying and have improved these evil arts, making them their new and orthodox ways of cultivation."

"Skinning and recreating animals, replacing heads and limbs...these techniques were thoroughly developed and applied to us. The entire Jiang and Min states became their training grounds!"

"I watched the villagers die tragically, and became a dog following the side of the Evil Spirit Master."

There were tears in the eyes of the Taoist Gou Pi, and his aura was like a candle in the wind, flickering, as if he would die in the next moment.

"Do you have anything you want to confess?"

Looking at the current appearance of the Dog Skin Taoist, Lin Beixuan became a little silent.

"call……"

Taoist Goupi sighed and looked out the window: "I have kept these things in my heart for a long time. Now that I have spoken them out, I feel much better!"

The dog-skin Taoist turned his head and smiled, and his ugly, pus-filled face seemed to become bright at this moment as if the last rays of the sun had burned out.

His smile was frozen at this moment and will always be frozen at this moment.

Lin Beixuan stood up silently and gently laid the Dog Skin Taoist's stiff body down on the bed.

He did not wipe away the smile on the Dog Skin Taoist's face with his hands, because he knew that this was the happiest moment for the Dog Skin Taoist.

Taotao next to her was already crying. She covered her mouth, trying hard not to make any sound.

Lin Beixuan reached out and grabbed the skin of the Dog Skin Taoist. The dog skin that had accompanied the Dog Skin Taoist for most of his life could not be peeled off. At this moment, it was just a loose layer of cicada shell, which he took off easily.

"Ha ha……"

Looking at the dog skin on his hand, Lin Beixuan suddenly laughed out loud, but his voice was so cold that it was a little scary.

"Tao Tao, I want to know all the information about those esoteric monks."
