Chapter 122: Evil Ghost

The Sea Lotus Throne was the supreme treasure of the original Buddhism of the 'Kingdom in the Clouds', the 'Asura Path of the Lotus', which had been sealed in the Great Elephant Majestic Temple of the 'Central Tibet' for over a thousand years.

On that day, it was personally broken open by the Yuanshan general Chang Gong Zhe Bie, by the order of Chang Sheng Tie Mu, and taken out and bestowed upon Baori Eshen.

The reason for the bestowal was that the Yuanshan Emperor felt that Baori Eshen had a naturally bad temper and was prone to making mistakes, so he should carry a Buddhist treasure to suppress his temper.

But Heaven's will thus caused Baori Eshen to embark on another path.

In the clear breeze and fine rain.

Using the fire of the 'anger, ignorance, and greed' of the Buddhist three poisons in his heart as a fire seed, and borrowing the 'Asura Path of the Lotus' to infinitely amplify it.

He ignited the anger deep in the hearts of those Hanli prisoners of war on the giant lotus seat who had been tortured to the point of losing their will to survive.

They had been reduced to death row prisoners from soldiers, officials, wealthy households, and even nobles and royalty.

They had lost wealth, relatives, loved ones, health, happiness, and everything else.

Even when the time of death arrived, how could they truly be willing!

Thus, angry roars, sorrowful wails, and meaningless roars just for venting were shouted from one ashen face after another.

Until their eyes were bloodshot and blood surged from their seven orifices.

In the end, anger burned away all reason, making them forget even how to walk, turning into living evil ghosts.

They lay down like wild beasts, using their hands and feet to leap into the sea.

And these poor wretches who were forcibly turned from humans into ghosts. The infinite resentment left behind began to backlash against the lotus throne, but was easily dispelled by the Buddhist treasure.

In the end, it turned into a hurricane, heavy rain, midsummer snow, and frost, covering the Zhihai Town not far away.

As for the evil ghosts who went into the sea, a few sank directly to the bottom and became fish food.

The rest, under Baori Eshen's mental control, swam very lightly and approached the ironwood fleet, trying to jump onto the ship.

And this time, some evil ghosts kept jumping up and falling into the sea, slowly exhausting themselves to death.

The rest slowly grew barbs on their fingers, their mouths split to their ears, and their teeth turned into fangs.

Hooking onto the ship's body, they climbed onto the deck using their hands, feet, mouths, and teeth.

On the deck, the soldiers holding thunderclap bombs had long been waiting on the side.

Seeing an evil ghost emerge, they skillfully stuffed the thunder pearl into its mouth.

After waiting for the evil ghost to swallow it into its belly, they continued to stuff it in.

At the same time, Zhihai Town dock.

In the bridge tower of the red dragon fish giant ship floating in the sea, unafraid of the hurricane.

Prince Zhen, who was both nervous and bored, observed from the water curtain that it was actually snowing in July outside, and hurriedly asked the strategist beside him,

"Which gentleman can tell me what kind of omen 'heavy rain turning into snow' is.

Mr. Yin still hasn't sent any news, are we just going to wait here?"

From the founding of Ming Song, the three generations of the emperor, prince, and commandery prince, that is, the son, grandson, and great-grandson, studied in the royal 'Imperial Study Academy' before the age of fifteen.

After the age of fifteen, they were all sent to the Imperial Academy to compete with the talents of the world.

So although Prince Zhen called the strategists beside him 'gentleman' with a straight face.

In fact, they were all fellow students and friends who were close to him and had talent, and everyone knew who was good at what.

Before the words fell, his eyes had already turned to a young man with a romantic brow, dashing temperament, and red lips and white teeth.

As a result, the young man met Prince Zhen's eyes and laughed dumbly,

"Your Highness really thinks we live in a legendary novel.

Among a group of strategists, the one with the most ideas must be the one with the most bumpy background, but the most handsome appearance, the youngest age, and the most dashing temperament, making people feel like a spring breeze at first sight..."

"Zhao Pujun, I didn't praise you, but you praised yourself enough."

Prince Zhen said angrily:

"What time is it now, and you are still acting stupid and selling cute.

Why don't you hurry up and say what to do next?"

Zhao Pujun clapped his hands,

"Your Highness, Mr. Yin is a true talent who has achieved both civil and martial arts.

He told us to remain calm and wait for news, so we should naturally continue to wait."

He said the two words 'martial achievement' extra loudly, and gave a special wink.

Prince Zhen immediately understood that his uncle was a top-level cultivator, and even that his relationship with himself was special, had been seen through by Zhao Pujun.

However, he had already left the capital, came to the Southern Kingdom to start inspecting, and was fighting with the enemy, so he didn't think about continuing to hide it from the people close to him.

After being silent for a while, he changed the question,

"Then do you think we can win this sea battle?"

"Now we have only sent one great general, and we have held the situation with the opponent.

There is also the trump card of the red dragon fish mechanism giant ship that has not been moved.

As long as they don't have other killer moves, we will definitely win."

Zhao Pujun answered confidently but actually said nothing.

And Prince Zhen was not a stupid person, frowned when he heard this,

"Who would send out all their chariots, horses, and cannons at the first encounter.

We are hiding our trump cards, and the opponent probably also has a backhand.

Sigh, that's enough, let's wait."

Just like this, the people in charge of the dragon fish giant ship did not act rashly and continued to be a surprise force.

Outside the dragon fish giant ship, Zhang Gui had evil thoughts, urged the main divine cong 'Fate Meets Gray-Black' born in his body, and faint gray-black energy permeated from the pores all over his body.

Floating toward Mr. Yin at the berth.

According to common sense, just like no matter how strong an ant is, it cannot bite the thick skin of a rhinoceros, the power of a mere 'Bing Superior' Seventh Rank divine cong is difficult to affect a 'Jia Superior Great Auspicious' strong man.

But Zhang Gui's bloodline abilities had the suffix of 'Divine Ability Power', even 'Heavenly' figures could bite off a piece of flesh.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a familiar loud noise came from behind him,

"Zhang Gui, what are you dazing for at this time, why don't you hurry up and hide over here."

It actually made Mr. Yin turn his head to look.

At the critical moment, Zhang Gui dispersed the bad luck energy generated by 'Fate Meets Gray-Black'.

And this distraction made his head clear up immediately.

Although he founded a country by himself and created a clan by himself.

If he really wanted to mix up the Eastern Sheng Continent in the future and overthrow the Song Ming society, he probably wouldn't hesitate for a second.

But now comparing Ming Song with Yuanshan, rationally thinking, no matter which aspect, Zhang Gui should be more inclined to Ming Song.

What's more, what Yuanshan is invading now is his fief.

But thinking of the fief Zhihai Town, Zhang Gui associated it with the fact that this place had been eyed by Prince Zhen.

And from Prince Zhen's covetousness, he associated it with the second position of the Dragon Tiger Mansion, 'Zaicheng', which was about to be taken away.

For this, Prince Zhen even killed...

That name didn't even need to be recalled, and a nameless anger rose from Zhang Gui's chest, connecting the operation of the divine congs in his body.

However, this time he already had psychological precautions and immediately suppressed the anger.

Turning around, he flew toward the direction of Xuanzhi Mountain.

"Just now Shen Shijing of the Qingdou Academy said to me:

'Urgent fire attacking the heart, heart demon invasion, blessing in disguise bloodline explosion, divine cong manifestation'.

It seems it wasn't a description, but really suffered from a 'heart demon'.

In legendary myths, this is 'divine wisdom confused, triggering internal fire burning the body', a big problem that might lead to 'form and spirit being destroyed'.

No matter what, I still have to stay away from the 'source of anger' quickly.

This kind of thing is absolutely better to be careful than sorry!"
