Chapter 215 The Devil is Coming

Jumping from the lake, Ye Feng went straight to the bottom of the lake.

He pinched the Water Avoidance Technique, looked at the mark in his hand, and reached the bottom of the lake.

The bottom of the lake is not deep, only about thirty or forty meters.

Wait, this should be considered deep for mortals, right?

Forget it, it doesn’t matter.

The key point is that he had fallen to the bottom of the lake, but he couldn’t find any trace of the Nine Cauldrons.

Is it that the Nine Cauldrons are not here, or are they in this paradise in the lake?
Ye Feng gently picked up the measuring ruler. The measuring ruler seemed to have sensed Ye Feng’s intention, and it vibrated with two buzzing sounds.

The next moment, the measuring ruler drew a line, and a crack appeared on the bottom of the lake in front of him?

No, it cannot be called a gap, it should be called another space!
Sure enough, there is another space under the bottom of the lake!
After Jiuding came here, a space was created to protect itself. I think that’s how it is.

But for some reason, Ye Feng always felt uneasy when he looked at the space in front of him.

It’s as if there is some danger here.

The measuring ruler also felt it and was reminding him that there was danger inside.

“Little Leaf.”

Mu Lao’s voice sounded in his mind, and Ye Feng tightened the measuring ruler.

“I know.”

He took a step forward and walked in.

Spatial ripples appeared at the bottom of the lake, and Ye Feng’s figure disappeared into the lake bit by bit.

And as he broke in, the gap was completely healed.

——

Lei Ze, also known as Lei Ze and Lei Xia Ze, is the place where the Thunder God lives in Lei Ze in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

This place is not only the residence of the Thunder God, but also a holy place for the human race. To some extent, even the Fire Cloud Cave dare not say that it can definitely surpass the Thunder Lake.

Huaxu stepped on Lei Ze and gave birth to Fuxi, and Shun fished in Lei Ze. This is it.

Emperor Fuxi is the ancestor worshipped by all human beings, and Emperor Shun is the saintly ancestor who led our ancestors from ignorance to a civilized country. They are both closely related to Lei Ze.

Therefore, Lei Ze occupies a sacred position in history and is the life-giving fountain that nurtured the ancestors of the Chinese nation.

This should be a rich place. No matter what, it must be protected by good fortune.

But
This place looks like a ruin.

Ye Feng walked on this land.

This is like an ordinary piece of farmland.

But the black soil smelled foul, and the crops in the fields were not crops at all.

What are those things?
What a disgusting look.

It’s stomach-churning just to look at.

Huh! ! !
Ye Feng couldn’t help but pinch his nose.

Is this really where the Nine Cauldrons are placed?
How could it be like this where the Nine Cauldrons are?

“Little Leaf.”

“I know, teacher.”

Ye Feng thought that Mr. Mu wanted to remind him to be careful, but that was not what Mr. Mu meant.

He came out of the ring, looked at the environment here, and felt the foul smell. For some reason, he had a sense of familiarity.

“This place, this atmosphere, always feels so familiar.”

“Disgusting, dark, and filled with a certain depravity.”

Ye Feng was a little surprised.

“Teacher, do you know this place?”

“No, I just feel familiar. It feels like… a demonic aura!”

Demonic energy?

“Is it the evil energy in the magic way?”

“It’s not that kind of pure magic!”

The magic way and the devil are two different concepts.

The magic path refers to a method of spiritual practice.

A method of practice that allows one to do one’s own thing and transcend the self.

It is a recognized existence.

But the devil is different.

Demons are evil beings and will never be allowed to exist.

From Volume 1 of the Numinous Treasures’ Supreme Scripture of Infinite Salvation, we can see that the divinity of demons is the same as that of immortals and can reach the realm of the heavens.

The Blue Sky Demon King is Ba Yuan Chou Bo. The Red Sky Demon King is Fu Tian Dan Shi. The White Sky Demon King is Fan Shan Liu Mu. The Black Sky Demon King is Jian Chou Lang Fu. The Yellow Sky Demon King is Heng Tian Dan Li. The Five Emperors Demon King is the leader of all gods. He leads the flying drums and ghost soldiers. He waves the flags and drums and tours the universe. He calls himself He Yi, and all the gods are equal in merit. He saves people from heaven and strictly controls Bei Feng.

I, Bai, have no idea which gods and immortals correspond to the Five Emperors and Great Demons.

The Shangqing Yinshu says: “All ghosts and demons are skillful in changing in various ways, some sinking, some floating, some visible, some disappearing, some gathering, some hiding, some taking shape, some breathing, some dead, some alive, some flying in the clouds, some ruling in the void, the five colors are hazy and have no fixed shape. All of these are under the control of the six heavens and are received by the three heavens. Within their limits, they can do whatever they want with their evil and ugliness.”

“The emperor also believed that the people’s hearts were not pure when there were too many clever scholars, and that harm would multiply and evil would flourish. Therefore, he tolerated it to intimidate the people so that they would cooperate with the truth, and punished those who did not serve as officials so that they would not destroy the root of the problem. If the cycle is completed, the evil will naturally disappear, and the people’s hearts will naturally become pure and the scholars will naturally become immortals.”

In Taoism, there are ten kinds of demons: Heavenly demons – those who come from heaven to test Taoism.

Earth Demon – the cause of all disasters.

Man-demon – one who fascinates people.

Ghosts and demons – wronged souls and evil spirits.

Gods and demons – those who are greedy for profit and support them.

Yang Demon – the followers who hinder the path.

Yin Demon – the one who disturbs the mind in dreams.

Disease demon – a person who is plagued by karmic illness.

Demons are the spirits of wood, stone, and animals.

Realm demon – a person who has no concentration and sees gods in illusions.

In addition to Taoism, there is also Buddhism. Well, of course, Buddhism also has theories about demons.

However, the demons in Buddhism are much simpler.

Simply any obstacle that can hinder spiritual practice can be called a demon.

Therefore, the inner troubles such as anxiety, anger, greed, etc. can all be called demons.

However, in Mr. Bai’s setting, the Taoist view is adopted.

Demons are treated as a race and then opposed to immortals, gods, humans and monsters.

The so-called demonic energy is a kind of power used by demons.

No, you’ve already created a myth, it would be a bit too much not to bring out the devil, right?

And this Lei Ze experienced the destruction of the devil.

“magic”

Ye Feng muttered twice when he heard this word for the first time.

“Teacher, what kind of demon is this? Is it very powerful?”

“If it’s really that powerful, then why haven’t I seen a demon until now?”

Mu Lao was silent for a while, and then said, “I don’t know why. Even the so-called demon is something I just remembered.”

“If I hadn’t seen this scene and felt this aura, I might not have known what the so-called demon was.”

“But Xiao Ye, be careful, be careful!” “The devil is absolutely an extremely terrifying existence!”

Since Mr. Mu said so, Ye Feng would naturally be more careful.

But they have been walking for a very long time. From the time they came in to now, it should have been almost three hours, right?
No matter how slowly he was walking, Ye Feng had already climbed over several mountains with his speed.

Instead of still wandering in these fields and unable to get out.

“We are probably trapped here.”

“I don’t know what method was used to create this area. Or maybe this is how the space is. There is only this kind of scenery.”

Ye Feng did not notice anything like a formation. The formation did not exist here, and the space was endless and boundless in his perception. So, it might be something like an illusion.

The teacher said that there are ten kinds of demons, one of which is called the mirror demon.

Demons are regarded as beings that can bewitch people, but in fact not every kind of demon has the ability to bewitch people. In Buddhism, the heavenly demon is like this, but in Taoism, only the mirror demon has such ability.

The Great Law of the Sutra says: “When practicing, the demon of the environment is when you see something on the road or in another room and have a greedy and angry mind, see something that is not a color, hear an evil sound, or see various weather patterns and shapes in the room. These are all tests from the demon of the environment.”

As for the statement about the demon in the realm, that statement means that one lacks pure tranquility, which means that one has not cultivated one’s mind to the fullest level.

When people who study Taoism and cultivate the truth see the various kinds of wealth and rare objects in the outside world, they can have the desire to obtain them, but they cannot have greedy thoughts.

It is just as it is said in Volume 16 of the Lingbao Infinitely Saving People Sutra.

All scholars who practice clairvoyance are often annoyed by demons, which results in the decline of their powers. If you see a beautiful spirit concubine, you should not look at her too closely, as she is often the Jade Boy and Jade Girl of the Three Officials and Five Emperors, observing people’s merits and demerits. There are also pure and kind demon armies that transform to confuse people. Or they may become ghosts and monsters and show hundreds of demonic tests to prevent people from achieving great merit. And the obstruction of the wife and relatives is all caused by demons, who want to stop people from achieving their goals.

Cultivating the mind and practicing Taoism is of paramount importance.

Ye Feng had no idea about the Mirror Demon’s abilities. He just thought it was an illusion, so he simply believed that he had been being watched since he came in.

Now he has fallen into the other party’s trap without realizing it.

Then what should be done?

Ye Feng thought about it and felt that he still had to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.

Since the other party attacked me, he must have found my weakness or something else, or he is very confident in me and all he needs to do to defeat me is to remain as still as a mountain!
With a ruler, there is nothing that cannot be handled!

Thinking of this, Ye Feng took the initiative to walk into a house.

There is a lot of dust in the house, which shows that no one has lived here for a long time.

He waved his hand casually, sending away all the dust, and then found a place to sit down and rest.

I plan to wait here quietly.

Then several days passed while we waited.

This demon’s patience is even greater than Ye Feng imagined. He has been here for such a long time, but it has not come out at all.

Wow, you’re so good at hiding?

Or do you feel that you will be completely controlled here?
“Xiao Ye Zi, waiting isn’t a solution after all. Let’s try and figure out how to get out.”

“It’s really not a solution to keep wasting time with the other party like this.”

Ye Feng thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case, so he decided to get up and take a look.

However, the moment he stood up, he suddenly felt weak all over, and he fell forward uncontrollably.

The measuring ruler fell to the side, and Mu Lao came out of the ring and hurriedly helped him up.

“Little Leaf!?”

“My body.”

Ye Feng said in disbelief: “Teacher, I can’t control my body anymore.”

My hands and feet are weak, shaky and trembling, and I feel as if I have a serious illness.

But how is this possible?

How could he get seriously ill?

He is a powerful person in the fifth realm of Yang. Even if he doesn’t have the Heaven-Measurement Ruler, he won’t be invaded by the disease.
Wait, disease! ?

Ye Feng seemed to have thought of something and his expression suddenly changed.

Disease!!!

One of the ten demons!

What had infected me was not the mirror demon, but the disease demon! ?
The explanation of illness in the Dharma Sutra is:

The disease demon is caused by a person’s improper practice. As a result, the four elements are out of balance, the diet is not right, the cold and heat are not balanced, and many diseases arise. If the disease demon persists and damages one’s practice, it is a test for one’s practice.

That is what is called – hygiene imbalance.

You should eat when you are hungry and put on clothes when you are stunned. This is in line with the laws of nature.

If you eat and drink in an irregular manner, do not avoid cold and heat, and do not distinguish between drought and humidity, it is natural that you will get sick, as these things go against the natural laws of heaven and earth.

However, the diseases in the fantasy world are definitely not that simple.

If everything can be fine just by obeying the laws of nature, then why would I be a devil?

Here’s a little disease shock for you!

“The gas here is poisonous!”

“Xiao Ye, hold your breath and quickly mobilize your magic power to heal your wounds!”

Ye Feng also knew that he had to heal his wounds quickly, but… he couldn’t move at all.

It felt like I had lost control of my body.

“Teacher, this poison is colorless and tasteless. Maybe it should have been poisonous from the beginning.”

No, it’s not colorless and tasteless, it has color and taste!
As soon as they came in, they smelled the stench.

In fact, he was still on guard against the stench at the beginning, but later, the smell disappeared unknowingly. They thought it was the gas that disappeared. How could it disappear?

How did their sensitivity drop to this level?

What a shame.
Or is it that the poison has gradually caused their five senses to disappear?
Stay calm and don’t rush.

“Measure the sky.”

With a call, the measuring ruler came to Ye Feng’s side, and a faint light flowed out, trying to purify the toxins in Ye Feng’s body.

But when the light fell, Ye Feng remained the same.

There is no improvement at all.

Even if the Measuring Ruler input his power into Ye Feng’s body, Ye Feng remained the same.

This poison is more terrible than they imagined.

Just as they were thinking this in their hearts, a sound suddenly came from outside.

“who!”

Mu Lao shouted immediately.

The door was opened. It was late at night outside. The moonlight was shining, and the fields outside could be seen through the door. The fields had turned into black soil, and had absolutely nothing to do with crops. The black soil was gradually turning into people. No, it was not people, but something that could not be described.

They transformed into an appearance that walked upright like humans, but they had large horns on their heads, like bull horns. They also had disheveled hair and patterns on their bodies.

There was a huge hole in the chest, making it look like there was no heart.

Disgusting and weird, although I can understand it when I look at it, I just can’t accept such a guy in my heart.

It was as if this guy was an existence that absolutely could not be tolerated.

That is the devil!!!
The real devil!

These guys seemed to have smelled the most delicious food and crawled towards Ye Feng with smiles.

Mu Lao took action immediately.

The magic power turned into a strong wind, sweeping in all directions in an instant, blowing away many guys.

The body made of mud seemed to have no resistance and was easily blown away.

“How dare a mere little demon approach my disciple?”

“Get out of here, old man!”

The old man was domineering and protected his disciple, but the blown mud turned into a demon again.
