Chapter 434: 238. Master Lei Borrowing Buddha Offering Flowers_5

A group of disciples from the Great Void Temple was quickly dealt with by Lei Jun.

Within a limited range, Lei Jun did not need to set up the Taiji Yuan Magnet Dragon Locking Array in advance, relying solely on his own Dual Polarity Yuan Magnetism Spell, and adding the Reverse Heavenly Vision and Earthly Listening Talisman, he caused the flow of Global Spiritual Qi around him to form a closed effect.

Both were his life-bound magic arts, so he could try out new tricks as he pleased.

Still, to completely prevent being traced, Lei Jun made sure to use the Dark Side of the Celestial Book to sweep away any clues once again.

Then, he left the place without delay.

After getting far from the snowy ridge mountains, Lei Jun at last looked again at the cloth bag in his hand.

King Sea Chrysanthemum... Lei Jun furrowed his brow slightly.

He was no stranger to that name.

Back when demons from the East Sea were causing trouble, stirring up chaos, this demon was one of the main culprits.

It had the power of a Great Demon, equivalent to a master in the Human Race’s Nine Heavens Realm.

It resembled both flora and octopus-like creatures, but was massive in size, capable of rooting itself and drawing power from the land and the ocean, yet also transforming into a fish to roam the sea freely.

In the end, it had been struck down by Empress Zhang Wantong, suffering severe wounds, and escaped into the deep sea under the cover of the ocean. The Empress did not pursue closely, being focused on the affairs on land.

However, he had never heard before that King Sea Chrysanthemum could spread spore clones or the like.

Otherwise, such a demon would have been even more destructive.

*Did doing this consume too much for the demon, requiring it to weigh the cost-benefit ratio?*

*Or was it related to timing or opportunity?*

*Such questions flashed through Lei Jun’s mind, but he did not ponder them for now.*

*At the moment, what mattered more to him was whether he could make use of this pouch somehow.*

Referring to what those Great Void Temple disciples had said, Lei Jun could make some rough guesses,

The years that the Great Void Temple had spent drifting at sea had not been wasted. Aside from building their strength, they had also connected with some of the Demon Race.

It was not just the East Sea.

The demon riot in the Northern Lands that had once trapped Bodhi Temple was likely orchestrated by famous clans like the Jinzhou Ye Clan and the Youzhou Forest Clan, reaching out to the Great Void Temple to connect with Great Demons from the Northern Border.

Now, against the Celestial Master Mansion, they just repeated the trick.

If those rumored clones of King Sea Chrysanthemum really were released, they would likely attack all living beings nearby indiscriminately, unable to distinguish between Tang Xiaotang, Lin Che, or Lin Yuwei.

Judging from this, those so-called clones had not inherited King Sea Chrysanthemum’s intelligence, and were probably not connected to it in mind and will.

At the same time, they also could not be controlled by the Lin Clan, Great Void Temple, or others.

Special wind, or wind after a certain time, was one of the triggers needed to wake these demons.

As for the power of the demons, he believed it would be formidable—even if they could not actually kill Tang Xiaotang, causing her trouble would leave Lin Che and Lin Yuwei an opening to strike at her.

Lei Jun hefted the pouch in his hand and glanced back in the direction of Dragon Bone Ridge.

Even if he notified Tang Xiaotang now, Lin Che and Lin Yuwei already knew. Using this demon to ambush them would have limited effect.

So then...

Watching the fight rage on, Lei Jun saw that Tang Xiaotang was holding her own, so he withdrew his gaze and restrained his aura, leaving for now.

He arrived at Great Black Mountain.

It was past noon.

The previously predicted moderately unlucky lot here probably referred to the ambush by Lin Che and Lin Yuwei, two great scholars of the Eightfold Heaven of Confucianism.

Of course, it was not safe to say that Great Black Mountain was secure now, so Lei Jun still approached with caution.

He silently observed the distant mountains.

At first glance, it seemed silent and deserted.

But Lei Jun faintly sensed that the Void Realm here was unstable.

This was probably not just a spot chosen by the Lin Clan for an ambush, but was an actual doorway to the Void.

However, the ritual instrument the Lin Clan had used to block the portal was set up at Dragon Bone Ridge.

If this was such a key place, then surely there were still Lin Clan members left behind to keep watch.

Especially since the experts who had just hurried to Dragon Bone Ridge were only Lin Che and Lin Yuwei.

Right now Great Black Mountain was quiet, likely because there was some master concealing things.

Here, there was a good chance Upper Three Heavens Cultivators were holding the fort.

Without getting any closer, Lei Jun could not spot any more clues for now.

But he had his own way to confirm things.

He lit a top-rank Heaven’s Sight Earth’s Hearing Talisman, but it did not release any smoke, simply dissipating invisibly instead.

Lei Jun himself sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and unleashed the Dual Polarity Yuan Magnetism Spell.

After a moment, it was as if ripples bloomed in his sea of mind.

As expected, at Great Black Mountain, someone had established contact with the outside world.

Although he did not know the details, Lei Jun sensed its existence.

That could all be studied and improved on later. For now, it was enough.

"They say to present flowers to the Buddha, but let a poor Taoist present the Buddha to the flowers instead, please accept this and enjoy."

Lei Jun calmly got to his feet, went to the summit of a high snowy peak, and gazed into the distance at Great Black Mountain.

He took out the pouch, then fished out no less than twenty Spirit Talismans.

Genuine Wind-rolling Clouds Talismans, direct transmission from Celestial Master Mansion.

Unlike the talismans in the hands of Great Void Temple disciples, which varied in quality and grade,

his were all supreme-grade.

With the Dragon-Tiger Talisman and the Yin Yang Pen boosting him, even if they were not life-bound talismans, Lei Jun could still draw supreme-grade high-grade Spirit Talismans.

He opened the pouch.

All the supreme-grade Wind-rolling Clouds Talismans were ignited.

In an instant, violent winds howled!

The wind force was focused, too.

From the pouch, countless fluffy white balls resembling dandelions shot out, converging and flying straight toward Great Black Mountain!

The white furry balls floated in the sky like drifting snow, swiftly approaching the mountains and falling down.

During that flight, each white furry ball rapidly swelled several times in size.

Their appearance was still unremarkable, but a murderous Demonic Qi Evil Miasma had already begun to seep out.

On the summit of Great Black Mountain, an elder suddenly appeared, raising his head to the sky, his face changing dramatically,

"King Sea Chrysanthemum’s clones?! How did they end up here?"

This was Lin Likong, an elder of the Youzhou Forest Clan.

He was well acquainted with both the Great Void Temple and King Sea Chrysanthemum’s clones.

At this moment the old man did not dare to hesitate, raising his voice in a long chant, "The north wind shakes the earth, rivers overturn the heavens, I sit at the pole, adrift on an empty ship!"

This great scholar of the Confucian Chanting Sect had reached the Seventh Heavenly Layer, able to attune his poetry to the world, borrowing the powers of nature. In a moment, raging winds howled above Great Black Mountain. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

But Lei Jun had prepared thoroughly, and his spell was strong. Wind battled wind, and neither side lost ground for the moment.

Lin Likong’s gales made those white furry balls pause in the sky, no longer drifting forward.

But the wind could not blow them away, either.

As time went by, the dandelion-like white fur balls swelled even larger, their numerous white silks spreading out in all directions.

The moment those white threads started to spread, they fully unfurled in the blink of an eye.

And once those threads unfurled, they no longer drifted delicately on the wind as before,

but moved with a life of their own, like some otherworldly Heavenly Demon, killing aura blanketing the sky.

"Careful!!" Lin Likong shouted in a harsh voice, "Run!"

Lei Jun, watching from a distant mountaintop, saw that after the furry white balls unfolded, they looked like jellyfish, or blossoming white chrysanthemums, but the countless extending threads reaches astonishing lengths—just one flower covered hundreds of meters in all directions.

Though the white silken hairs looked impossibly long and fine, wafting lightly as if they weighed nothing, they pierced straight through several Lin Clan disciples hiding on the mountain, turning them into blood gourds!

On top of that, the King Sea Chrysanthemum clones moved like Wind Riding, incredibly fast, actively encircling and slaughtering the Lin Clan members on the mountain.

"Oh? They only react to those cultivating Spiritual Energy? That means they don’t attack ordinary people or livestock?"

*Lei Jun’s comprehension was exceptional, so even just watching, he gleaned some insight, "But King Sea Chrysanthemum’s main body is not like this; the variation is worth careful study."*

*He felt a little disappointed he didn’t have any popcorn or something right now.*

*At that moment, Lei Jun even missed Xiao Xueting, who was always stocked with snacks.*

On the opposite Great Black Mountain, it was just like a restricted-level horror film.

From afar, the snowy white peaks were stained red in wide swaths, as if the mountains themselves were bleeding.
