There was still silence in front of the Golden Palace. Only a few argali sheep were shaking their tails nervously and looking at Su Yun in horror.
The giant argali is definitely an extremely ferocious beast, it even has demonic nature, otherwise it would not have caused thirty years of unrest in the West.
However, Su Yun just swallowed them raw one at a time, making the argali sheep terrified and they wanted to escape.
"This seemingly lazy boy is actually very strong!"
Cang Jiuhua couldn't suppress the cold sweat on his forehead. He turned his head to look at Bai Yuelou and thought to himself, "Could it be that I saw it wrong? He is the good-for-nothing?"
Bai Yuelou stood there with a smile as warm as the spring breeze, as if Su Yun's actions were nothing to him.
Bai Yuelou's heart was filled with anxiety: "From now on, even if you kill me, I will never challenge the eldest brother. I will just be the second in command. He even kills the argali in one bite. How cruel!"
His calm demeanor made Cang Jiuhua a little suspicious, thinking: "Am I overthinking? All the civil and military officials in Yuan Shuo's court were shocked, and only a few people could remain calm, but this man remained calm, obviously unfathomable! His strength will only get stronger. Yuan Shuo's strength..."
He felt that he was in a difficult situation and suddenly said in a stern voice: "Yuan Shuo scholar, you are practicing the magic way and bringing disaster to the people. My Great Qin..."
“That’s right!”
A civil official stepped out from the crowd and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, Yuanshuo is a great country with a history of 5,000 years, and many saints have emerged. This scholar used magic to defeat his friends from the Qin Dynasty. His heart is worthy of death, and his crime is worthy of death! Please order the execution of this beast and save the reputation of Yuanshuo."
Cang Jiuhua was stunned, thinking: "Is this person a spy planted by my Great Qin in Yuanshuo? It seems not, but why is he speaking for my Great Qin?"
Emperor Ping did not comment, but turned to Qiu Shuijing and asked, "What do you think of what Huang Shicao said?"
Qiu Shuijing bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this is the Twenty-Four Transformations of Gods and Demons that was derived from the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Array. It is indeed powerful. The foreign country of Daqin, a barbarian land, only knows the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Array, but does not know its changes, so they mistakenly think it is the devil's way. Little do they know that this is the upright and righteous way!"
He glanced at Huang Shicao and said, "As for Huang Shicao's old eyesight, he doesn't know the changes of the Zhoutian Array. I think Huang Shicao should resign and return home. I heard that a new calcite factory has been opened in Lingnan, Huang Shicao's hometown. Why not ask Huang Shicao to go to Lingnan to support the factory and dig calcite."
Huang Shicao was furious and kept scolding Qiu Shuijing.
Another minister stepped out, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Qiu Taichang abuses his power..."
Emperor Ping waved his hand and said impatiently: "Drag them away together, and send Huang Shicao and Zhongsan Dafu to the robbery factory together."
Immediately, the Jinwu Guards stepped forward and dragged Huang Shicao and the Zhongsan doctor down.
The other court officials were silent, for they all knew that Qiu Shuijing was highly regarded by the emperor and no power could rival him.
Emperor Ping stood up and saluted the tall and thin monk: "The Holy Buddha has come out of retreat, it is a cause for celebration."
It was the Holy Buddha who had just rescued the Great Qin spiritualist Gao Fu from Su Yun's mouth. The Holy Buddha put Gao Fu down, clasped his hands together, and said, "Outsiders, please pay your respects to Your Majesty."
Although he greeted Di Ping, his eyes were still on Su Yun.
Su Yun was still thinking about the scene just now, and suddenly a great fear arose in his heart: "What happened to me? Why did I suddenly turn into a glutton? I also ate a big sheep! The big sheep was so big, and I actually ate it... It tasted good, but it was raw!"
He shuddered, feeling as if there was another powerful and evil being living inside him.
In his spiritual world, Yingying looked at Su Yun's soul with inexplicable horror.
When Su Yun transformed into a Taotie just now, she saw that Su Yun's soul also transformed into a Taotie, which was so scary.
Now that Su Yun's spirit had recovered, he was in a daze, and she didn't dare to approach him.
"Yingying, Mr. Shuijing just said that my transformation into Taotie is derived from the twenty-four transformations of gods and demons from the Zhoutian Star Array."
Suddenly, Su Yun came to his senses and asked, "Doesn't this mean that I can indeed transform into a Taotie?"
“That’s not the case!”
Yingying was so angry that she wanted to rush over and hit his forehead with the book, but she didn't dare to. She said angrily: "You just turned into a glutton. It was definitely not some twenty-four transformations of gods and demons! You were controlled by something..."
Su Yun was lost in thought, as if he hadn't heard her words, and murmured, "I think Mr. Shui Jing's words are very meaningful..."
"Deep meaning, you bastard!"
Yingying said angrily: "There is no such thing as the Twenty-Four Transformations of Gods and Demons! Instead, you have been possessed by a Taotie! If you continue like this, you will turn into another Taotie!"
Su Yun continued, "... I think I understand Mr. Shui Jing's profound meaning. It must be the art of creation! Yes, the art of creation is in the transformation of the furnace! The art of creation can change the blood and the body. If I can push the Taotie to the extreme, I can indeed activate the Taotie supernatural power and transform my soul into a Taotie!"
Yingying was stunned for a moment, then stammered, "Now that you put it that way, it seems to make sense..."
She suddenly came to her senses and continued angrily, "But the transformation you just now into a Taotie was definitely not caused by your magical powers! You were possessed by the Taotie Demon God!"
Su Yun said to himself: "The soul and the body are one. If the soul is injured, the body will also be injured. If the soul changes into the form of a glutton, then the body will also change into the form of a glutton. In other words, if this magical power is used in this way..."
He suddenly activated the furnace to transform, refined the art of creation, visualized Taotie, and his spiritual nature gradually changed.
Yingying looked dazed, she saw Su Yun's spirit suddenly change from human form to that of a demon god, his hands made a hissing sound, sharp claws grew out, scales grew out of his body, and his skull grew in all directions, getting bigger and bigger!
"This..." Yingying was completely stunned.
Deep in Su Yun's memory, a long tongue was trying to break through his memory seal, but suddenly the tongue retracted: "This kid, can he still study me like this? Don't make him stronger..."
The Holy Buddha took a step forward and walked towards Su Yun. At this moment, miraculous changes suddenly occurred all over Su Yun's body. Scales grew on his body. The scales were gorgeous in color, and arranged into various patterns that only taotie had!
The Holy Buddha was surprised, stopped, activated the Buddhist Heavenly Eye, and looked Su Yun up and down.
Su Yun's body was seen changing, his muscles bulging, becoming taller and taller, and his head was also changing into the head of a Taotie!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Behind him, caves of all sizes emerged, and the seventy-two caves were glowing with light of various colors. On the inner walls of the caves, all the marks of gods and demons turned into marks of Taotie!
An endless supply of gluttonous energy rolled in from the Seventh Spirit Realm, causing his cultivation to improve rapidly!
The Holy Buddha looked up at the demon god, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed: "Well done, well done." After saying that, he turned and left.
He had come here with the intention of sealing Su Yun. The Pavilion Master of Leiyin had appeared in his dream and asked him to seal Su Yun, so as to prevent the gods and demons in Su Yun's memory from breaking the seal.
Just now, Su Yun did lose control and was invaded by the demon god Taotie. However, at the critical moment, Su Yun suppressed Taotie again and drove him back into the seal.
This has shocked the Holy Buddha.
And now, before he was about to take action to suppress it, Su Yun actually transformed into Taotie again!
This time, when he turned into a Taotie, it was not that his mind and soul were occupied by the Taotie, but that Su Yun had mastered a profound art of creating gods and demons!
Su Yun can change himself at any time and do whatever he wants.
"The Taotie suppressed in his memory cannot escape for the time being. Instead, his vitality is constantly being absorbed because of his use of this magical power. Although it is still unsafe, there is no need to suppress him in this situation."
The Holy Buddha's eyes fell on Wutong, hesitating for a moment, and silently said in his heart: "Since Taotie is like this, then let the human demon go for now."
Cang Jiuhua was shocked, his eyes fell on Su Yun who was trying to use the Taotie True Body, and he thought: "His Taotie True Body was just cultivated, which means that he really just comprehended it from the Zhoutian Star Array! Is there really such a strong comprehension ability in the world? Then..."
He looked at Bai Yuelou, who smiled at him.
Cang Jiuhua felt a little dizzy: "His talent is probably even higher! Could it be that Mr. Shui Jing really revitalized Yuan Shuo? But why is the people still in such a dilapidated state..."
Qiu Shuijing was also extremely confused. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that Su Yun really mastered this technique of creating gods and demons, and refined the true form of Taotie in public!
At this moment, there was suddenly a loud bang, and the Great Qin spiritualist Gao Fu was beaten to pieces by Su Yun, who had transformed into a Taotie!
The Qin envoy was furious and murderous.
Cang Jiuhua's face was green, and he said sternly: "Emperor Yuanshuo, the victory has been decided, why do you still want to kill my Junior Brother Gao Fu?"
Emperor Ping did not answer, and a minister said, "Your Majesty, this scholar is wild and difficult to tame. I am afraid he has ruined the friendship between our two countries. Please make a decision, Your Majesty!"
Su Yun dispersed his Taotie body and shrank in size. He said in confusion, "The envoy just said that only by deciding the victory or defeat, life or death, can we see the depth of one's knowledge. He just lost, I haven't killed him yet. Now that I have killed him, I can verify the depth of his knowledge."
"How disgraceful—" an old minister pointed at him and said in a trembling voice.
Qiu Shuijing said: "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Ping said lazily: "Zhao Changshi is old, and Lingnan needs Zhao Changshi to shine, so Zhao Changshi should go to Lingnan to dig up the ashes."
He stood up and said calmly, "The envoys of the Qin Empire have come a long way and are exhausted. Please prepare a reward and then submit it to me for review. Please ask the envoys to go and have a rest. Scholar Bai and Scholar Su will stay, and General Qiu and General Xue will also come in to see me."
Cang Jiuhua opened his mouth but said nothing. He thought, "Well, let's settle down first. Although the young people in Yuanshuo are strong, many of the civil and military officials are spineless. If we stay for a few more days, we can slowly plan."
Bai Yuelou smiled slightly, walked down the stairs, got off the argali, and came to Su Yun as if in a trance.
Su Yun opened his mouth, but a gluttonous forked tongue popped out from it, and he quickly dissipated his gluttonous magical powers.
"Follow me." Bai Yuelou said calmly.
Su Yun followed him, and the two of them walked one in front and one behind, to Qiu Shuijing's side, and followed Qiu Shuijing and Xue Qingfu towards the imperial carriage.
