The Soul-Luring Lamp reflected his life, all its details, which seed normal up until now.
However, at this mont, the scene began to change.
The scene was at the edge of the Tang City refuge, in a house that had been converted into a makeshift Buddhist hall.
Above the hall, there was a statue of a pitch-black Buddha with four faces and eight arms, and beneath the statue did not sit a normal lotus platform.
Instead, there was a mountain.
Lin Yuan strained his eyes to see the Buddha statue clearly, but he just couldn’t make it out.
The face of the Buddha statue was hazy, giving a feeling of mirror flower water moon.
Everyone in the hall was devoutly kneeling before the pitch-black Buddha statue and gradually began to grow fanatical.
The life scenes shown by the Soul-Luring Lamp had images but no sound, so Lin Yuan couldn’t hear what was said among them.
However, just based on these images, it was clear that in this Buddhist hall, he completed his transformation from a diligent, downtrodden citizen to a mber of a radical evil organization.
The scene continued...
As ti passed, more and more people died at the hands of Evil Spirits, and this evil organization expanded quickly.
From the initial dozen people in the dilapidated little Buddhist hall, it gradually evolved into hundreds, even thousands...
The followers developed by this evil organization all shared one trait.
That is, they were all ordinary people, not awakened ones, and they were all at the bottom of society.
Perhaps because of his devoutness, or perhaps because he joined early, his status in the evil organization rose quickly.
A week ago, the evil organization began slaughtering survivors, turning them into Buddha Lamps, arranging a great array to summon a Buddha under the World Honored One to this world for preliminary purification.
They succeeded, summoning a Buddha under the World Honored One to this world, along with the Buddha’s dojo.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan understood everything.
But what nonsense of a Buddha, what nonsense of a dojo.
This damn thing clearly brought over a Tier Five Evil Spirit and a Deceitful Demon.
At this point, the scenes still continued.
It seed his devotion moved the World Honored One, and he received a blessing from the World Honored One, which was a scripture.
His hands trembled as he opened the scripture.
The first page of the scripture said...
In the ti after Sakyamuni perished and before Maitreya is born, I shall cleanse the world...
Just as Lin Yuan’s eyes moved to the words "cleanse the world," intending to look further, black flas rose from the scripture, burning it to ashes.
The black fla burned more fiercely, and the scene was filled with black fla, obscuring everything else.
"Ah!"
"Ah! Ah!"
Suddenly, the Evil Buddha let out a roar, and black flas burst forth on his body, quickly engulfing him entirely.
Silencing witnesses?
Could it be that the World Honored One sohow sensed it and intended to silence witnesses, refusing to let him spy further?
"The World Honored One cleanses the world, all things perish."
"I am rely returning to the embrace of the World Honored One ahead of ti. You will, one day, be like !" Amidst the roaring flas, the Evil Buddha’s gaze remained devout.
Within the black flas, the Evil Buddha gradually turned to ashes, leaving no trace of his existence in this world.
With the Evil Buddha gone, those present looked at each other.
Clearly, the situation in Tang City was worse than they had imagined.
In the scenes just shown by the Soul-Luring Lamp, in this evil organization alone, there were at least ten individuals with status and rank akin to the Evil Buddha.
After invoking the evil array to summon the Tier Five Evil Spirit and Deceitful Demon, they attempted to transform themselves into Evil Spirits through dark arts.
This ant that, as of now, in the entire Deceitful Demon realm, there were at least a dozen Evil Spirits like the Evil Buddha, at the Half-Step Tier Five.
Even Zhang Zhen was no match for the Evil Buddha.
And Zhang Zhen’s strength could be said to be at the peak of combat power in Tang City.
Describing the situation in Tang City as precarious would not be an exaggeration.
The Evil Buddha had been burned to nothingness, and this lead was now broken.
However, fortunately, even before the Evil Buddha’s demise, he had provided ample information.
The only pity was likely that scripture.
Lin Yuan thought that the scripture might have recorded so secrets about the "World Honored One."
Sadly, just after seeing the first few words, the entire scripture was turned to ashes.
The scripture stated: after Sakyamuni’s death, before Maitreya’s birth...
According to Buddhist texts, Sakyamuni undoubtedly refers to Sakyamuni Buddha, and Maitreya definitely to Maitreya Buddha.
Sakyamuni Buddha is the present Buddha in the Buddhist sect, while Maitreya Buddha is the future Buddha.
Which ans, if Sakyamuni Buddha enters parinirvana, Maitreya Buddha will succeed.
After Sakyamuni’s death, before Maitreya is born, I shall cleanse the world.
This "I" should be the World Honored One.
Lin Yuan couldn’t fathom and really couldn’t imagine who this World Honored One could be.
A Buddha of the Buddhist sect?
Or, perhaps, is it the identity of a Buddha from the Buddhist sect after succumbing to evil?
In the real world, Buddhas exist only in mythological legends.
Although everyone had heard of them, before the mysterious invasion, nobody would have believed.
Even after the supernatural invasion, only tattoo awakening and the Totem Visualization thod can grant extraordinary powers.
There’s simply no such thing as Buddhist sect monks.
Speaking of cultivation thods, Lin Yuan has only seen it on Bai Ling’Er; Bai Ling’Er practices the cultivation thod of the Qingqiu Fox Race.
Moreover, Bai Ling’Er also ntioned that people in their world are unable to cultivate.
This evil Buddha just now clearly didn’t use tattoo power, nor the power of visualization thod.
He distinctly employed the wicked arts of the Mysterious World to transform himself into evil spirits, thus obtaining extraordinary power.
Based on this known information, Lin Yuan can basically deduce that in that Mysterious World, Buddha and Buddhist sects exist.
However, the Buddha and Buddhist sect in that Mysterious World are different from the Buddha and Buddhist sect in the mythological tales of the Real World.
The Buddha and Buddhist sect in mythological tales are at least sowhat righteous in their image.
Even though there are so criticisms about the Buddhist sect on the internet, the Buddhist sect is never associated with evil.
However, from the current situation, the Buddhist sect in the Mysterious World is evidently evil.
The World Honored purifies the world.
Is this intending to slaughter all living beings in the world and turn the whole world into his large Deceitful Demon?
After careful consideration, Lin Yuan feels he knows too little about the so-called World Honored purifying the world.
"Boss, what shall we do next?" Zhang Zhen approached interrupting Lin Yuan’s reverie.
Lin Yuan hesitated slightly and replied, "Continue searching for survivors, like encountering other evil organization mbers is even better."
"I do want to see what exactly these evil organization mbers intend to do."
In Lin Yuan’s view, people from this evil organization seed even more terrifying than those from the Deceitful King Faction.
The Deceitful King Faction’s goal is to obtain power, benefits, status, control of the world.
Although the Deceitful King Faction is bad, if they were to rule the world, at least they could allow survivors to live.
After all, the power, benefits, status they desire can only be produced if survivors are alive.
But the actions that these evil organization mbers are undertaking now are world-destruction!
They’re aiming to annihilate the entire world, cutting off all people’s lifelines.
At this mont, Han Kun also approached after watching the image reflected by the Soul-Luring Lamp, looking anxious.
"Mr. Lin, can we crack this Deceitful Demon here?" Han Kun asked solemnly.
This Deceitful Demon is very special; aside from being the largest after the supernatural invasion,
It’s also the first Deceitful Demon brought into this world through human guidance.
In other words, these evil organization mbers are accelerating the fusion of the real world and the Mysterious World.
Can we crack this Deceitful Demon?
Frankly, Lin Yuan wasn’t sure.
If it were a Deceitful Demon at the level of the Mother-Child Deceitful King or Golden Armor Zombie, he could confidently say he could crack it.
But right now, he doesn’t have confidence.
"Hard to say!"
"If it’s just an evil Buddha of this level, I can easily handle them."
"But the evil spirit they’ve summoned, I don’t have a guarantee of victory!"
"Currently, we know nothing about the evil spirit they summoned. All I can say is to do our best and leave the rest to fate!" Lin Yuan slowly said.
...
....
Another direction in Tang City.
A team of nearly a hundred people has already assembled; this team is all elite.
Among the team, almost half are Tier Six Life Pattern Masters, and the rest are the elites among Tier Seven Life Pattern Masters.
At the forefront of the team stood two won and one man.
All three were fully ard, radiating energy fluctuations from head to toe.
The man was about thirty years old, compact and robust, with dark skin, looking very steady.
Among the two won, one had white hair and green eyes, tall and slim, exuding a queen-like deanor.
The other girl was petite, with red hair in twin ponytails, her face heavily adorned with smoky makeup, dressed like a "princess."
Yes, a nightclub princess.
These three are code-nad Zhi Ming, Jian Bing, and Ling Guang.
The aura they exude is in no way weaker than Lin Yuan’s.
Clearly, to beco the true aces of Emperor Dragon City, they possess absolute strength.
At this mont, they are leading a nearly hundred-mber team at the edge of Tang City.
A few hundred ters forward would be entering the Deceitful Demon’s scope.
"Let’s go in!"
"I hope there are still people alive in Tang City!" Zhi Ming’s voice was sowhat heavy.
As the strongest force of Emperor Dragon City, each of them possesses rich combat experience.
Their experience in cracking Deceitful Demons is also very abundant.
There are rarely any survivors in ordinary Deceitful Demons, let alone this kind of super-large Deceitful Demon.
In Zhi Ming’s view, Tang City’s survivors are already in grave danger.
The twin ponytailed red-haired Ling Guang leapt up, as she jumped, red flaming wings appeared behind her.
In the next second, she had already landed on a tree at the edge of the Deceitful Demon.
