Chapter 1309: Chapter 1303: Acquired Demons
Inside the high tower.
Li Kuanghua chanted scriptures. However, in just a brief moment, she realized she was in trouble. The imprisoned Second Uncle was staring at her with a look of bizarre amusement.
She had cultivated the Buddhist Dao in the Lotus Ferry Nunnery, and her mastery of the World-Crossing Buddhist Sutra could even make Nun Dairou go eat grass.
Yet, using Buddhist methods on her Second Uncle had absolutely no effect.
Li Kuanghua could even feel Second Uncle’s demonic qi actively eroding her Buddhist Dharma.
Her seven uncles and aunts weren’t nearly this wicked…
Staring at Second Uncle was like staring into a pair of sinister eyes in the abyss that embodied the ultimate evil of heaven and earth; the slightest carelessness would lead to sinking into depravity and bewitchment.
Li Kuanghua said gravely, “Second Uncle, it’s alright. Relax your mind and chant the Buddhist sutras with me. It will definitely suppress the evil thoughts.”
“Alright.”
A moment later, Li Kuanghua walked out of the high tower holding her battered wooden fish and battered wooden mallet, telling everyone she met, “My Second Uncle is invincible in the world.”
It wasn’t until half a day later, standing in the family’s main hall and looking at the clansmen all around her, that she suddenly snapped out of it.
She looked blankly at her family and said, “I was bewitched by evil.”
That very day, the Myriad Dao Pagoda became a forbidden area.
Li Wei appeared inside the Myriad Dao Pagoda.
He saw Yunbing locked by iron chains within the tower, self-imprisoned, with evil qi surging to the heavens.
Looking at Li Yunbing, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed as usual, Li Wei sat on the ground for a long time.
After becoming a demon, Yunbing’s interface panel had been constantly updating.
[Your descendant Li Yunbing devoured everything of Banshu Weide.
With the help of the Seven Ironclads and the Demon Lord, he transformed into a demon using the demonic and evil qi from the watchdog’s tentacles. Acquired Trait: Demon Tribe]
[As a acquired demon, the wicked thoughts he had accumulated for the sake of the family, as well as the family’s millennium of experiences, erupted in a single instant, causing his strength to skyrocket.]
[Acquired Demon Tribe Talent: Wicked Thought Heavenly Demon]
[Demons imitate immortals; devouring the heavens and the earth is their basic instinct, but what they feed on differs.
Your descendant Li Yunbing excels at operating behind the scenes. In addition to devouring flesh and blood, he can feed on the evil thoughts of humans.
As a demon of ultimate Yin, he can invade the consciousness of people.]
[Li Yunbing devoured the majority of the tentacles from the half-immortal watchdog physique of Banshu Weide. Acquired Trait: Immortal Eater]
[Devouring the heavens and the earth is only the beginning; only by devouring immortals can a demon activate their body’s ultimate power.]
[Acquired Demonic Dao Divine Ability: Claws and Fangs — Watchdog]
[Transforms demonic qi into tentacles. The tentacles are incredibly resilient, using heaven and earth as a trapping array to erode the world.]
Kuanghua walking out of the tower acting crazy was clearly the result of being hit by Yunbing’s innate evil art.
Even Buddha couldn’t resist the manipulation of these evil thoughts.
But all things in the universe have a price.
Li Wei could feel that Yunbing was trying his utmost to maintain his original humanity.
Li Wei remained silent for a long time.
The long passage of time still hadn’t made him accustomed to the changes in his descendants. Or perhaps, as the Old Ancestor, he too was slowly turning into something else.
Not long after, the doors of the high tower swung wide open.
Li Yunlin slowly walked in and silently sat down beside Li Yunbing.
It was so quiet inside the high tower that one could hear a pin drop.
The two brothers simply sat together like this, feeling the slivers of light filtering into the tower from outside.
“Eldest Brother, you didn’t bring the old cat.” Li Yunbing exhaled a long breath.
“No.”
Li Yunlin smiled.
“The old cat doesn’t really like the demonic qi on you. I sneaked in while everyone wasn’t paying attention.
Third Uncle beat up the third brother and the others. You know the elders don’t like us acting recklessly.”
“This time… it truly was a bit crazy.”
Hearing this, Li Yunbing grinned.
“Being a little crazy is better than not being able to do anything at all. I’ve had enough of the demons and monsters outside. With power, I can do a lot of things.”
“I came to let you go,” Li Yunlin said casually.
The chains clanked.
Li Yunbing’s eyes darted around as his demonic nature and humanity waged war against each other.
But looking at his elder brother beside him, he let out another long breath of foul air.
“Forget it. Right now, I want to eat everyone outside. If I really eat them, the elders will be unhappy again.”
Li Yunlin leaned casually against the wall, resting his head on his hands, looking at the bright light shining through the window.
He frowned. “When I was young, I was trapped. Now, I have trapped you. Yunbing, what kind of ghostly state have we all become now?”
Li Yunbing followed his brother’s gaze.
Within the incoming light were motes of dust dancing in the high tower.
These dust motes seemed to transform into the two children they once were in the village.
He used to follow behind his elder brother. If anyone came to trick him out of his candy, his elder brother would definitely chase them away.
He suddenly smiled. “If we had just stayed in the village this whole time… how nice would that be?”
“Ah, the passage of time.”
With a smile from Li Yunlin, inside the high tower, the two brothers sat quietly together.
Through a small window, they watched the sun set in the west, and the first light of dawn rise again—tranquil, yet seemingly eternal.
