Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 18 The Great Buddha and the Great Demon
"Yes!"

Everyone agreed, and the noise was deafening!
"Boom, boom, boom..."

Xiao Ying released all the Star Souls again at the right time and possessed them, causing countless auras to burst out, and dozens of people broke through the shackles in an instant!

There are more than 2,400 people in total, including 875 star souls. They can be rotated in the next three rounds. Over time, we can win people's hearts and cultivate loyalty!
After all, he was the commander of the imperial guards, and he had the help of sixty-four experienced and highly skilled Zhoutian envoys, so the division of large and small teams was completed quickly.

The training officially began, the atmosphere in the square was boiling, and the shouts of killing were deafening!
Xiao Ying stood on the platform, watching all this with excitement, anticipation, and satisfaction...

He knew that this team would become his core team and strength to gain a foothold in this world and even dominate the world in the future!
"My elder sister is wise, my younger sister is dull! Commander Xiao is indeed the best commander, unmatched!"

Looking at everything in front of her with complicated thoughts, Empress Cui praised repeatedly in a way that seemed to make amends.

This is the third time that the Star Soul has possessed me!

Empress Cui and others who had been living in close proximity finally reacted.

Such a terrifying divine cultivation method came entirely from Xiao Ying alone, rather than being a group divine method created by many divine cultivators working together as previously speculated.

No matter what level of cultivation Xiao Ying has, or what his experience and abilities are, just based on his incredible abilities, there is no one more suitable to be the commander than him!
"..."

Three women make a drama, not to mention so many. If you don’t want to be crushed, stay out of it!
Xiao Ying complained in his heart, but wisely pretended not to hear it. He didn't hear it, didn't participate, and didn't know!
"Crackling..."

While everyone was training, Xiao Ying was not idle either. He sat on the high platform in front of everyone and began to digest the possessed star soul...Gongsun Wuda!
Scattered memories and knowledge of famous generals came flooding in, as well as the temporarily enhanced talents and qualifications of famous generals, rapidly filling in Xiao Ying's growth as a famous general!
"Sword Dance of Gongsun", the ancient great family Gongsun, inherited the ancient and established itself in the world, with the family's treasured book that shocked the world, using sword to enter the Tao and dance as the law!
"Tianxin Yi Swordsmanship", one of the Gongsun clan's secret books, is an extremely rare treasure book that integrates swordsmanship, mind cultivation, strategy and other aspects.

"Tianwu Sword Technique", the famous general Gongsun Wuda integrated the Gongsun secret manual and transformed it into a tactic suitable for battlefield combat!
"Boom, boom, boom..."

While digesting everything that Star Soul Gongsun Wuda had, Xiao Ying also did not lag behind in his cultivation!
Infused with the power of a second-grade divine general, Xiao Ying's aura and momentum surged at an astonishing speed...

Seventh-grade Dark Energy late stage, peak...

The early, middle, and late stages of the sixth level of transformation...

breakthrough!

The initial stage of fifth-grade Dan Jin!

In just a few incense sticks of time, Xiao Ying soared from the seventh rank to the fifth rank in front of countless people, which strongly shocked countless people who were paying attention!
This was because Xiao Ying was suppressing it deliberately, otherwise it would be even more terrifying, and it wouldn't take too long for him to burst out with his peerless strength!
Of course, Xiao Ying will not deliberately suppress it for too long just for the sake of the future. He must have the power to protect himself before being threatened by the rebel camp!

At least you have to reach the state of extraordinary destruction before the decisive battle in order to protect yourself, right?

……

Several miles away from the square, dozens of masters and monks, including the abbot of Qiling Temple, Master Lingzhen, gathered to "peek"!
"This...this...is there really such a magical method in this world?"

Master Lingming, the head of the Zhengdao Academy, who focuses on cultivating his mind and remains calm even when facing a mountain collapse, muttered to himself in disbelief!
Generally, divine skills increase a group's strength by 10% or 20%, such as speed, strength, defense, recovery, and other single factors. This is already very powerful and is called a divine skill.

Empress Xiao and her entourage, however, directly advanced several realms, their combat power increased several times, and their state became even more difficult to count.

Xiao Ying's personal cultivation was like taking a magical elixir. Even the phrase "a thousand miles a day"—a child of destiny—couldn't describe his speed. "A chaotic era is approaching, and evildoers are everywhere!" The newly rescued Master Lingyan, the head of Pudu Academy, sighed and shook his head with a compassionate expression.
"Unheard of! Unheard of! This is one of the main reasons why I treated Empress Xiao so well and sold out my favor to Commander Xiao..."

Abbot Lingzhen was also shocked, and sighed repeatedly, somewhat doubting his own life. After a pause, he quickly continued:
"Commander Xiao has changed drastically. His fate, fortune, and luck have all undergone significant changes! From what I've seen and guessed, this boy is surrounded by blood and evil spirits, yet he still has a clear mind..."

"In the future, either you will be a great Buddha or a great devil!"

"In these troubled times, we all need to take sides and choose the right people to support in order to protect our sect! I have chosen Commander Xiao. What do you all think?"

After saying this, Master Lingzhen looked solemnly at the monks present.

This concerns the survival and future of Qiling Temple, and even the world situation. Naturally, it is not something that Master Lingzhen can handle, even as the abbot.

Master Lingming was the first to speak out: "When chaos breaks out, there will inevitably be great conflict, and we have to fight! This boy is rare, a Buddha and a demon in one body, worth a try!"

"Amitabha! This boy is surrounded by a thick blood mist, and his murderous aura reaches the sky. It's like the blood demon in the world. He is clearly the appearance of a great demon."

The monk Zhixin, who had been in seclusion for many years and was of the Zhi generation, chanted a Buddhist name and made Master Lingzhen and others feel a pang in their hearts.

Although the Zhi generation is basically reclusive and does not take charge of affairs, they are the highest generation and are the foundation, trump card and pillar of Qiling Temple, and are fully aware of the major and important matters of Qiling Temple.

Then the monk Zhixin slowly continued, "However, judging by his actions, he seems quite open-minded and compassionate, with a strong Buddha-nature. Clearly, his mind hasn't been taken away. Such a person who possesses both Buddha and demonic qualities is truly rare in this world!"

After he finished speaking, he paused, looked at the monks and asked, "My fellow disciples, do you remember one of the verses left by the ancestor?"

"The gods appear in the world, and demons dance wildly; Buddha and demons become one, and the world is united!"

Abbot Master Lingzhen frowned in deep thought, then blurted out something. After a pause, he continued in surprise and confusion:

"One thought leads to the devil, one thought transforms into Buddha. The devil and Buddha are only a thought away. Doesn't this verse mean that when troubled times come, the Buddhist sect should join forces with the demon sect to restore order and unify the world?"

"..."

Many people present looked at each other in silence.

"Could it be that the ancestor's verse, that Buddha and devil are one body, refers to a special physique, that is, this child, and that he wants us to join forces with the demon sect? This... this... this..."

Master Lingyan blurted out with a change of expression on his face. He was speechless for a moment and almost had a mental breakdown!
Not to mention Master Lingyan, the others were in a similar state. The abbot, Master Lingzhen, even trembled slightly, and his mind almost collapsed, turning from a Buddhist into a demon.

If this is true, then the misunderstanding is huge, too big!

The original purpose of Buddhism is to eliminate demons, defend the way, and save all living beings. However, they misunderstood the teachings of the ancestors and have been quite tolerant of the demons, and even colluded with them secretly. Recently, with the chaos in the world, they even intend to join forces with the demons.

How will they face their ancestors after they pass away?!
"Amitabha! It should be so, we are stupid!" The wise monk Zhixin chanted a Buddhist name to make it clear.

"What does it mean when the gods appear and demons dance wildly? It refers to the 36 rebel kings, 72 smoke and dust, and the other 108 demon stars of the chaotic world. The winner will be deified, and the followers will ascend to immortality. This time, it's right, right?"
