Chapter 386: Incense

With the fall of the Buddha Lord, the Saint of Thieves being rescued, and Mount Wuliang being destroyed.

A series of news spread from the Brahma Pure World. The disciples of Mount Wuliang were numerous, and the forces entangled behind these disciples were intricate, so the news spread rapidly to all provinces and cities.

Not long after Li Hao and Li Mu left, two black shadows appeared on Mount Wuliang. When they saw the broken Spirit Mountain and felt the residual Great Dao power in the air, their expressions changed drastically.

Soon, they dissipated and left like light smoke.

Outside the Great Yu Province, in a secret place in the continuous mountain ranges.

The surroundings were permeated with mist, and the population was sparse.

Two figures appeared quietly, landing in a hall in the mountain secret place like ghosts.

"Demon Sheep Venerable, just received news. We went to investigate, and that Buddha Lord who sought cooperation with us earlier—he is dead!"

One of the black-robed youths said in a low voice.

Beside him was a graceful woman with purple patterns on her cheeks. If Li Hao were here, he would recognize that these two were the two Desolate Gods outside Qingzhou City.

In front of them, an old man with a huge body was squatting on the ground. His hunchback was high, like carrying a thick stone. He held a dark, curved cane like an ancient tree in his hand. There was a human face on the top of the cane, and the eyeballs were turning constantly, squinting from time to time, revealing a strange smile.

"Buddha Lord?"

Hearing the youth's words, the old man turned around. His eye bags were sagging with wrinkles. He looked at the black-robed youth and said: "Really? What about the Demon Luo?"

The black-robed youth said grimly: "Unless a saint takes action to cover our perception, it is absolutely impossible to be wrong. That Demon Luo is also dead. There is residual demonic aura there, and undissipated Dao power. He should have merged with the Demon Luo."

"Buddha and Demon as one, two extreme Dao Hearts. He is really greedy enough. No wonder he was still in the Taiping Dao Realm after two thousand years. It turns out he was plotting to become a saint in one step, and also wanted to become a top-tier existence among saints."

The old man narrowed his eyes, and the layers of wrinkles on his eye bags seemed to pull up a bit.

The black-robed youth and the woman looked at each other, both seeing solemnity in each other's eyes.

Extreme Dao Heart fusion, crossing a major realm to become a saint directly?

Such a figure, even in that Land of All Saints, could be considered an astonishing existence, right?

"He should have been forced to merge in advance. There is only residual Great Dao aura there, no saint aura," the black-robed youth said.

Demon Sheep Venerable old man snorted coldly: "That's natural. He sought cooperation with us to plunder the incense of the Great Yu Dynasty, which shows that the incense he accumulated was not enough. This is also normal. That Great Yu Emperor would not allow anyone to occupy the magpie's nest and plunder the incense that his Jiang family is plotting, to resurrect that Jiang family saint! He now merged in advance, belonging to a premature baby, unable to become a saint, which can be considered dying unjustly!"

"Incense?"

The purple-patterned graceful woman was puzzled.

"You are not yet in the Dao Law Realm, so you cannot sense it."

Demon Sheep Venerable old man said: "On the path of cultivation, one plunders the creation of heaven and earth. Below the saint, all are ants, only able to rely on ability to defy heaven. But the saint realm has the three disasters of heaven and earth, and must borrow incense to cross the tribulation. Otherwise, why do you think this Jiang family left the Desolate Ancient Heaven and ran here?"

"Do you really think they were defeated in the battle for the Desolate Ancient Sacred Clan and squeezed out of the Desolate Ancient Heaven? Heh, this Jiang family is just following the trend, plotting to use this dynasty to accumulate incense, to resurrect that Jiang family saint!"

Hearing this, both were stunned, looking at him in shock.

The Jiang family is actually plotting to resurrect the ancestor saint? This ambition is somewhat terrifying.

"Demon Sheep Venerable, is there no other way to become a saint besides incense? Then we..."

The black-robed youth's eyes flickered.

"You should first contemplate the Dao Law Realm before talking. If you want to plot in advance, that's fine, but our demon race cannot get human incense. Who would worship demons? Even if it's by force, it's useless. If the heart is not sincere, it is useless. It is called incense, but it is actually wish power, the sustenance of the wishes of all living beings!"

"We can only get this power from demons. The Holy Son promised us that after taking Great Yu, he will build demon temples for us everywhere. At that time, you can drive all demons to worship."

Demon Sheep Venerable said.

Hearing him mention the two words "Holy Son," both of their eyes tightened, revealing a few points of awe.

The purple-patterned graceful woman asked: "Is there no other way to become a saint besides incense?"

"There is, but it is basically impossible. That path has long been broken. It requires unimaginable comprehension..."

Demon Sheep Venerable shook his head: "In short, these are too far away for you. Even in the Dao Law Realm, you may not be able to contemplate the Saint's Dao, open up your own Great Dao, let alone collect incense. If there is no such astonishing posture, plotting in advance is just making wedding clothes for others, just like this Buddha Lord."

The two looked at each other, both feeling sympathetic.

Becoming a saint—who doesn't want to? But the two of them thought about it, but they really didn't have much confidence. That is indeed too far away.

One must first contemplate the Dao Law, and after contemplating the Dao Law, one must open up one's own Great Dao. It is too difficult.

"Speaking of which, although the Buddha Lord failed to become a saint in one step, Buddha and Demon merged, and he was forced into the Hearing Dao Realm, and it is even possible that he was in the Dao Law Realm!"

Demon Sheep Venerable shot cold light from his eyes:

"That boy was able to kill the existence of the Dao Law Realm. Are you sure that when you fought him in Qingzhou earlier, he was only in the Four Standing Realm?"

The two were stunned, a look of horror appearing in their eyes.

The Buddha Lord directly became the Dao Law Realm? They went to investigate afterward and only sensed the rich Great Dao aura, unable to distinguish whether he had mastered Dao Law.

But after hearing what Demon Sheep Venerable said, they also understood that the Buddha Lord was also an astonishingly talented powerhouse. With such a plot, even if he was premature, it was impossible for him to be an ordinary True Person Realm.

Taking a step back, even if he was only in the True Person Realm, he must be the most top-tier existence.

"We definitely won't see that wrong. When he fought in the Qingzhou Great Battle earlier, he exposed his aura and only used the Dao Domain to fight. It's impossible to hide, otherwise his cultivation would be too exaggerated..."

The black-robed youth's face changed and he said in a low voice.

The purple-patterned graceful woman's face was gloomy: "It's also possible that the battle with us allowed him to contemplate some breakthrough? But we have cultivated for ten thousand years and are only in the True Person Realm... Compared to him, haven't we lived in vain?" Demon Sheep Venerable's face was gloomy: "A sixteen-year-old Four Standing Realm—isn't that exaggerated enough? Let alone the Four Standing Realm, have you seen a second sixteen-year-old Three Imperishable Realm?"

Hearing his words, the two looked at each other, both speechless.

Indeed, a sixteen-year-old Three Imperishable Realm is very heaven-defying. Now it's just more heaven-defying.

"Is that boy really human? Could he be some saint reincarnated?"

The black-robed youth couldn't help but ask, thinking of the "Holy Son" they mentioned earlier.

Demon Sheep Venerable's eyes flickered. There is indeed this possibility, but even if a saint is reincarnated, I haven't heard of one being so monstrous, unless it's a saint directly disguised.

But if that were really the case, they would have come to wipe them out long ago, and there wouldn't be a chance for them to talk here.

"I have long heard of some peerless monsters who are extremely exaggerated, cultivating for one day is equivalent to a year for ordinary people. That boy should be like this."

Demon Sheep Venerable sighed lightly. Their plans were all disrupted by one person. It's hard to imagine.

"It's just that the Buddha Lord was too greedy. If he had chosen to join forces with us to ambush, even if that boy had three heads and six arms, he would have been hard-pressed to escape Mount Wuliang. It's a pity that he was afraid that we would become his stain and affect his incense. Now he can be considered to have died deservedly!"

The purple-patterned graceful woman said with a cold face.

"It may not be fear of affecting incense, it may also be guarding against us. After all, we all entered Mount Wuliang... He must have been restless too," the black-robed youth said.

"Then without the Buddhist sect to respond, wouldn't our plan have to change again? The Liangzhou matter previously fell short of success, and we were angered to death by that boy!"

The purple-patterned graceful woman gritted her teeth, hatred appearing in her eyes.

"Now, we can only use waste."

Demon Sheep Venerable old man's face was gloomy: "Earlier, outside Qingzhou City, I let you solve that boy with your main bodies, but that Buddha Lord insisted on saying he would solve it. As a result, he made a stupid move, getting himself killed. He wanted to use that Saint of Thieves to attract that boy, ruin his reputation, and make him break with the imperial court."

"As a result, he forced himself into Buddha-Demon fusion and was beaten to death. It's simply stupid."

The black-robed youth was silent. A wise man makes a mistake in a thousand thoughts. It can only be said that no one expected that boy to be so terrifying, even able to behead the existence of the Dao Law Realm.

When the information is unequal, all calculations are as ridiculous as a clown.

In their long-term planning, everything was originally in order, and nibbling away at Great Yu was just around the corner. But that boy rose like a sudden force, appearing out of nowhere, like a sharp knife killing from outside the field, disrupting everything.

Who could calculate this?

If they had known earlier that Great Yu could give birth to such a monster, their planning would have been carried out in advance, even if it meant sacrificing more costs.

"Now, although the Buddha Lord is dead, we can only continue to use his stupid move. And by borrowing his death, we can better make that boy break with Great Yu, letting the hundreds of millions of tongues of the Buddhist disciples spit one by one, drowning that boy!"

Demon Sheep Venerable old man sneered: "When that boy can't stand it, he will kill in all directions again, killing all those Buddhist disciples. I don't believe others won't be afraid. That boy is Great Yu's sharp sword, but the sword is double-edged. Now let them realize that this sword can also hurt them!"

The black-robed youth and the woman nodded slightly.

That boy being able to behead the Buddha Lord made their jaws drop, and he was already an existence they couldn't match.

The two felt a sense of luck in their hearts. Fortunately, the Buddha Lord made this stupid move to stop them, otherwise, if they went to find that boy with their main bodies, maybe they would be in trouble now.

"But that boy is now an existence that can behead the Dao Law Realm. Will Great Yu break with that boy?" the black-robed youth asked.

Demon Sheep Venerable sneered: "As an emperor, if a fierce character like that appears in your jurisdiction, will you be happy or afraid?"

The two looked at each other, both having the answer in their hearts.

Human beings have been brilliant in cultivation since ancient times, but they are extremely stupid in other matters. Even emperors cannot escape the shackles of human nature.

"Even if we are eyeing us like a tiger, some stupid humans would rather build high walls than allow an existence that can threaten them to be by their side. This is human nature."

Demon Sheep Venerable's eyes seemed to see through everything: "Moreover, that boy's current strength and age are just when his mentality is expanding. He can't stand even a little grievance. The world is so big that he can be carefree, and it's not like he must stay here. Do you think he will swallow his anger?"

"So, breaking is inevitable?"

Hearing his words, the two's eyes lit up.

If they break, then when they attack Great Yu, they don't need to worry about that boy anymore.

Solving the enemy doesn't necessarily mean killing; if it really doesn't work, pushing him away is also fine.

"What you need to do now is to let the Tianji Hall contact the Buddhist sect, let the Buddhist sect put pressure on that His Majesty, and make him suspicious!" Demon Sheep Venerable old man said.

"Understood."

The two nodded.

Demon Sheep Venerable sneered slightly: "This world respects the strong, but humans prefer to pretend to be fair and just. Clearly, there are distinctions between officials, nobles, clans, and commoners, dividing people into three, six, and nine grades, but they always want the bottom people to feel that there is still justice and righteousness. In this way, they have to pretend to be reasonable on the surface. That Buddha Lord is also like this, restricted by this, but he is fighting for a mouthful of incense, so he can only pretend to be kind. We don't lack human incense."

Hearing this, the two also laughed.

"Go, the Holy Son is also getting impatient."

Demon Sheep Venerable's eyes were deep: "If we drag it on, don't wait for the batch of geniuses who entered the Immortal Gate a thousand years ago to return. At that time, things will go wrong. We can only ask the Holy Son to come forward to solve it."

Hearing this, both of their scalps felt slightly numb, and they agreed, then disappeared and left.

At the same time, the news had long since spread to Qingzhou City.
