Chapter 984: The Last Ghost Lawsuit

~9 min read 1,601 words

At the Sea-Watching Pavilion, a crow holding a blue-pupiled eye landed in front of Qian Chen.

"Sect Master, that Westerner hid extremely deeply. Your subordinate did not notice for a moment, allowing him to rescue that old Daoist. However, your subordinate also pecked out one of his eyes... Should I use this eye as a guide to curse and kill him with the Eight Talismans of the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo?"

Qian Chen looked up at the mermaid corpse being carried by Wu Ponu below and scattered six copper coins with his hand.

Excluding the five copper coins refined by Daoist Daoist Tongshen that covered the corpse's five senses, another Treasure of Divine Communication, broken at one corner like a crescent moon, fell right onto the corpse's forehead.

"That Westerner wants to use it to raise the second pillar! The so-called 'truth'—the closer it is, the more 'false' it becomes; the closer it is to 'truth,' the closer it will be to 'Tzeentch'... Don't worry about him."

Qian Chen came to the mermaid corpse, reached out and slashed, and the chest full of mucus and scales split open, revealing the slightly beating internal organs inside.

"The Five Viscera Store, the so-called Five Yin operating in the year of Jia. There were two brothers who came from outside the realm as True Immortals, born as brothers, each operating the five elements, wishing to attain the Dao and ascend in this realm. But he underestimated the depth of this realm's water and was calculated by the Fifth and Sixth Shichen, finally leaving only this relic."

The crow looked up: "I have also heard the Sect Master tell the story of the Yaksha King and the Yaksha King."

"Therefore, the Dao path of the Five Viscera Store is actually divided into two parts. The Open-Belly Buddha is the Yaksha King. In the Dharma body he cultivated, Xin Metal is the lungs, Ren Water is the kidneys, Yi Wood is the liver, Bing Fire is the heart, and Ji Earth is the spleen. It is the rotation of the five elements of Yin Metal, Yang Water, Yin Wood, Yang Fire, and Yin Earth. Although it can also operate the five elements and become an immortal in the year of Jiazi, this rotation of the five elements has a huge backdoor."

"That is the portion of the Five Viscera Store of the Yaksha King!"

"Geng Metal is the lungs, Gui Water is the kidneys, Jia Wood is the liver, Ding Fire is the heart, and Wu Earth is the spleen."

"Yin and Yang combine, and the five elements generate each other. With the former as the foundation, when ascending, it is easily usurped by the latter, so I did not let any of you seize this Dao path, because it is not complete..."

"The Yaksha King's way of operating the Five Viscera Store is to store the five elements in his own five viscera, alienating them into monsters."

"Therefore, the Open-Belly Buddha's five viscera will manifest as five monsters: Ren Water Snake, Yi Wood Scorpion, Bing Fire Centipede, Xin Metal Toad, and Ji Earth Gecko. They were alive to begin with."

"And the Yaksha King's five viscera were installed as divine statues, receiving countless incense, and refined into a god."

"He originally wanted to use this god to usurp the Dao path of the Six Ancestors of the Green Skin Sect and open the Gate of Ascension, but he was intercepted by me in this calculation."

Qian Chen had long calculated the key to controlling the Dao path of the Six Sects, which still remained in the hands of the Black Tai Sui Alliance.

In the Black Tai Sui Alliance's calculations, that Dao seed was gathered from seven longevity Dao paths: Golden Human Dao, Yin-Yang Road, Five Viscera Store, Yinhe Corpse, Penal Remnant Ghost, Filthy Evil Bone, and Heavenly Calamity God. Among them, the Five Viscera Store was the lock that operated the five elements and controlled the six sacrificial Daos.

And Kundun operated the Five Yin, internally refined the Five Viscera, and finally took out this world, refining the Heavenly Calamity God with countless incense in the Samsara Land.

This was the key to opening this lock and usurping the secret ritual at the critical moment.

Unfortunately, everything that happened in this world could not be hidden from Qian Chen.

So he also prepared a key that was inserted into the lock first, preventing the Heavenly Calamity God from usurping it, and that was—Reversal of the Six Roots.

The original Dao seed should have been an evil god composed of Golden Human Dao as the skin, Yin-Yang Road as the seal, Five Viscera Store as the organs, Yinhe Corpse as the flesh, Penal Remnant Ghost as the qi, Filthy Evil Bone as the bone, and finally Heavenly Calamity God as the soul.

Its Dao path was decay, filth, and death, symbolizing the impermanence of constant things being eroded and changing and declining.

Therefore, the rust of the golden human, the death of the yin road, the rot of the five viscera, the decay of the yin corpse, the ash of the filthy bone, the qi of the penal remnant, and finally the grinding of the calamity god...

These paths, in the final analysis, could be classified as—the external causes of things moving toward decay.

Therefore, the Six Ancestors of the Green Skin Sect needed various 'unnatural deaths.'

The Calamity God to be achieved in the end could be seen as the internal cause triggered by external causes when things move toward decay, which is 'decay' itself.

Rust—the decay of the material itself.

Movement—the wear and tear of motion.

Rot—the disease inside the system.

Decay—the ulceration of external erosion.

Ash—the change brought about by material exchange.

Penal—the destruction of violence.

The intention of this Dao seed was not high, and the process of achievement felt like a patchwork, belonging to the lower grade among the myriad worlds. Finally, with the Heavenly Calamity God devouring the six Dao paths and melting them into one, it could not avoid the various contradictions and conflicts within.

Its Dao backlash was extremely powerful. Encountering the Taiyi Demon Xie Xie Zushi might just be a matter of a strand of energy causing bad luck.

But in the current situation where the path of Dao seeds is becoming increasingly difficult to walk and the predecessors' Dao fruits occupy all the paths ahead, it seemed extremely rare.

But such a Dao seed had no meaning for Qian Chen.

The greatest value of this Dao seed for Qian Chen was to encapsulate the title of Great Supreme Supreme Tian Mo...

So Qian Chen used the Demonic Thought of Divine Communication that twisted the five roots to replace it, twisting the Dao seed into the external force that changes the state of things—that is, violence, Khorne!

Pulling the internal organs out of that mermaid corpse, Qian Chen nodded at Du Xiaoling.

Du Xiaoling decisively drew his knife and dissected the chest and abdomen, revealing the corpses of the five monsters—fox, rat, snake, weasel, and hedgehog—curled up in his triple burner.

Qian Chen placed the five viscera back into their proper positions one by one. Those viscera, which were pulsing as if they were about to squirm and transform into living things, were held in the arms of the five demons—the fox, rat, snake, weasel, and hedgehog—that still retained the fierce, lingering baleful qi of their torture, and they immediately calmed down.

"With these five heavenly punishment monster corpses to suppress them, and my personally written Moon Demon Skin Secret Tally on the outside, this Five Viscera Store won't be able to cause any trouble."

Qian Chen then handed the six copper coins representing the six roots to Du Xiaoling, telling him to swallow them and place them in the body cavities of the gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and triple burner...

In some unknown pot-house village, Zhang Sanzhi used the only two fingers left on his left hand to support his pipe, exhaling a cloud of smoke, and looked sideways at the several uncertain big thugs in front of him.

Suddenly, he grinned and said: "Why, are you afraid?"

The pipe tapped on the letters on the table in front of him.

Zhang Sanzhi smiled: "These Westerners have written to help us win the last game, and there is even the secret help of the Northeast Shaman Sect leader. The Tianli, Hongyang, and Luo Sects—so many sects are helping us openly and secretly!"

"Didn't you all cheer at the beginning?"

"Why are you afraid now?"

"Do you know you have become pawns for others to fight? Do you know you have become the rafters that stick out?"

Zhang Sanzhi smiled: "If you ask me, the fact that we still have value to be used is already a stroke of luck!"

Yuan Laosan gave a bitter smile: "It seems we have no choice but to compete in that last game! Third Master, how do you say we should compete?"

Zhang Sanzhi sighed slightly: "The three rules of Dagukou—we lost the duel at the bell tower and lost the Great Dharma Assembly at the South Canal. Isn't there only that ghost lawsuit left where we tearfully file a complaint?"

As he spoke, he tapped the letters on the table with his pipe and said: "Just ask the Westerners to help us fight this lawsuit."

"If we lose the lawsuit, at worst we'll have bad luck for a few days, but at least no one will die again!"

Zhang Sanzhi smiled mockingly... ===== CHAPTER 985 =====
