Secret Buyer-Chapter 131 - 115: The Creator’s Authority, Heaven and Earth Bare Their Fangs at Me
’Bang!’
The old man slammed the table hard, yet he controlled his strength well, not damaging the wooden table in the slightest.
He looked sullen:
"What exactly does the Investigation Bureau want? They are unwilling to provide any video data on the Jiangzhou incident."
"Mr. Legislator."
A young man said politely:
"The Jiangzhou incident is still classified, and according to regulations, our Investigation Bureau is not required to disclose details to the parliament or the governor."
The old man raised his head, speaking coldly:
"In that case, I think these regulations need to be changed."
The young man felt chill but maintained a smile:
"If Mr. Legislator insists on interfering with the internal affairs of the Investigation Bureau, even going as far as to convene the parliament to push through a new proposal..."
His smile faded:
"Then the Investigation Bureau will also conduct a province-wide purge."
Hu Zhongli raised an eyebrow:
"Purge what?"
The young man remained unfazed:
"We believe the life-extending medicine greatly aids the cultists, so naturally, it would mean purging the life-extending medicine and classifying it as a banned substance."
Hu Zhongli chuckled angrily:
"Is the Investigation Bureau threatening me?"
"Mr. Legislator jests, we wouldn’t dare."
The old man stared at the young man for a moment, then waved his hand:
"Fine, you may leave."
"Yes, Mr. Legislator."
The young man left.
Hu Zhongli tapped the wooden table lightly, and someone approached, bowing respectfully.
"Go."
He instructed:
"Arrange for a few people to deal with the one who just left. Use the methods of the evil cult."
"Yes, Master."
The butler nodded, his face showing concern:
"Master, the life-extending medicine is extremely rare, and as of now, there have been no results."
The aged Golden Legislator, who seemed on the brink of death, slowly nodded, sighing:
"Once entering the Innate Realm, one can extend their life by a thousand years."
"Unfortunately, I have reached the end of my lifespan, my body is depleted, my spirit exhausted. How could I challenge the Innate Realm?"
The concern on the butler’s face deepened.
The master had just reached the brink of Breaking Limit in the Spirit Realm, but he was too old, his bodily functions deteriorating, and his spirit declining,
leaving him without the energy to challenge the Innate Realm.
If only it had been fifty years earlier, no, thirty years, or even ten years.
Hu Zhongli closed his eyes, tired:
"I can hold on for two more months, prepare for the aftermath. After I die, the children and grandchildren in the family should not covet power. Immediately hand over everything to the new legislator and leave the Golden Province."
The butler nodded silently:
"Yes, Master."
He quietly left, leaving the elderly man alone in the room, gazing out the window, looking over the entire waiting area.
"How many miles of life’s journey in the mortal world, yellow earth, yellow earth."
......
"In reverence, to the Central Pole Sect Leader, Emperor of the Underworld, Nine Netherworlds Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate....."
"Holding position in the Netherworld, ruling over Youdu..."
The droning chants echoed before the insurmountable great river,
Fifty-six souls, numbly bowing their heads, worshiping that towering and solemn statue, over and over again.
No one knew if they could gain the mercy of the [Nine Netherworlds Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate], but.....
What if?
"Emperor, dispenser of life and death’s balance in the human world..."
Chen Yuque chanted softly, still somewhat dazed, Central Pole Sect Leader, Emperor of the Underworld, Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate.....
Little junior brother, turns out, was a true descending deity.
Moreover, not an ordinary deity it seemed.
If he were to return to his position after enduring countless tribulations in the mortal world, what a scene it would be?
She did not know, and continued chanting.
’Buzz!!’
A violent rumble seemed to come from the celestial vault.
Fifty-six subconsciously looked up, seeing the hazy flowing aurora in the sky rolling violently,
A Heaven and Earth Golden Bridge, coming from beyond the heavens!!
The earth trembled, and from all directions rose an ethereal calling.
Soul, return...
Soul, return..... Driving long whips and harnessing six reins....
Soul, return..... Singing as you cross mountains... Return... Soul, return.....
The mighty sound, resounded from that Heaven and Earth Golden Bridge coming from beyond the heavens!
"Calling..... soul?" a True Soul murmured.
They saw heaven and earth in unison, saw thunderclouds rolling, saw a great sun, a decree!!
The decree appeared, celestial clouds and auspicious omens in the sky, with golden lotus flowers falling, and immortal flowers blooming,
accompanied by an unknown song, solemn, majestic, grand, vast!
That decree descended.
"The Emperor has issued a decree."
Mountains, rivers, plants, trees.
The entire world.
All resonated at this moment, producing an incredibly clear mighty sound!
"Emperor’s Decree."
"Guide the spirits back to the human world, to be the vanguard for the Emperor, with life and death in dual measure."
"The Nine Netherworlds shall comply!"
The words resonated from the vibrating heavens and earth, echoing in all directions, and the Heaven and Earth Golden Bridge from beyond the heavens, thunderously connecting to the ground.
Precisely at... in front of Chen Yuque.
And another Martial Arts Master’s Flawless Soul.
The two found in horror, they were unable to move, and stepped towards the Heaven and Earth Golden Bridge,
The decree emitted an astonishing heavenly light, accompanied by the mighty sound of calling the soul, soaring along the Heaven and Earth Golden Bridge into the sky!
A vast whiteness before their eyes.
Nothing was visible.
Meanwhile.
Zhang Fusheng looked at two sealed souls, with a thought, imagined two bodies of flesh and blood, attempting to integrate the souls with the bodies,
but failed.
It’s not that integration was impossible, but the bodies would collapse soon after merging, unable to bear the souls!
Why is this?
The flesh can be imagined and then refined into reality, but why can’t the bodies of flesh and blood?
Unable to bear the souls?
"Ah, in the human body, deep in the muscles and bones are shackles, as are the internal organs, there’s secret storage, and even more is the mystic Ancestral Acupoint at the forehead....."
Zhang Fusheng muttered to himself, creating a human body, it seems not so simple.
The human body is not merely a product of piled flesh and blood.
Zhang Fusheng pondered for a moment, finally made a decision, he extracted ’Yin World Wood Marrow’ from Niu Dali’s body,
After some thought, he extended his divine thought into the Heaven and Earth Tablet — during which, Zhang Fusheng found that the page of the Tao Scripture, which was blank before,
had new words appearing on it.
[I have come to find you]
Five large characters with ink still wet.
"Such boasting."
Zhang Fusheng muttered, though his expression was anything but pleasant. Although it was a fake Zhen Yuanzi, an usurper of the celestial position, it was, after all, a deity!
Not to mention the God of Plague occupying Jiangzhou.....
Zhang Fusheng truly had a bit of a headache.
He sighed and, with immortal thoughts that had seeped into the Heaven and Earth Tablet, imagined two bodies.
The first was naturally in the likeness of his second senior sister, aiming to be as precise as possible, and as for the second.....
Zhang Fusheng visualized the form of a child, a little boy about five or six years old, looking even younger than Lin Dongxi.
He tried once more to merge the two souls into the flesh bodies.
This time, the bodies did not collapse; they were even capable of autonomously setting ’restraints’ in the muscles, flesh, bones, and five major visceral organs,
but what about the secret storehouse in the organs?
Zhang Fusheng found that he could only imagine the great secret in the spleen — because he had only unearthed the spleen secret.
But it was enough.
With immortal thoughts and his spirit contemplation, the two bodies, capable of reaching the level of ’Martial Arts Master,’ successfully fused with the two souls,
he then injected Yin World Wood Marrow into the child-like body, not to contaminate it,
but to make the Yin World Wood Marrow the foundation of the body, turning what was an invasive affliction into this body’s ’unique constitution.’
It actually succeeded.
Though unsure of this unique constitution’s specifics, yet.....
"Does this make me half a creator?"
Zhang Fusheng muttered, his expression showing no hint of joy, even a touch of horror.
Creating, or one might say, the creation of humans.
It actually succeeded.
"With immortal thoughts as the foundation, one must yet be seated on the meditation mat, with an exceedingly high position as a prerequisite..."
Zhang Fusheng whispered to himself:
"These conditions are excessively stringent, especially the exceedingly high position."
Sitting cross-legged on the meditation mat, while creating humans, he could faintly sense a kind of ’repulsion.’
As if Heaven and Earth did not permit him to create humans.
Yet that resistance from Heaven and Earth ultimately could not overshadow the towering position.
"Creating human bodies....."
"Since I can create human bodies through imagination, can I not also imagine primordial souls?"
"Would that not make me a true creator??"
Suddenly, Zhang Fusheng thought of the so-called breeding planets, the synthetic humans within, and the so-called ’pseudo-souls.’
A terrifying idea erupted in Zhang Fusheng’s mind.
Could it be that the pseudo-souls circulating on the market were originally imagined and then refined illusion into reality??
It was not beyond the realm of possibility.
Collecting his thoughts, he gazed at the two pure and immaculate bodies,
gently patting the head of Niu Dali beside him, who struggled but could not make a sound.
"The final step."
"Refining illusion, transforming it into reality."
Sitting upright on the meditation mat, his thoughts connected with his divine realm.
And then...
Descend into reality!
’Rumble!!’
It seemed like an illusion.
Zhang Fusheng felt as if he heard the sound of Heaven and Earth’s wrath, as if refining illusion into reality by blending the human body with the soul was a kind of blasphemy against [Heaven and Earth],
or rather, a ’transgression.’
But this sound of wrath came from ’down below.’
Sitting on the meditation mat, infinitely elevated, high above Heaven and Earth, yet now beneath him.
All things were dwarfed, only I stood high.
Under the sensory perception of such a high position, the wrath of Heaven and Earth was like a little kitten hissing at him.
"Now that I am above you, how could there be talk of transgression?"
The Celestial Venerate on the meditation mat whispered, his voice suddenly solemn and majestic, rebuking the [Heaven and Earth] down below, hissing at him:
"It is you who are transgressing."
The ’hissing sound’ coming from [Heaven and Earth] abruptly stopped.
Zhang Fusheng sensed as if he heard a faint sigh.
It was a sigh of helplessness, humiliation, and grievance.
"You’re really quite like a little cat, huh....."
Continuing, refining illusion into truth.
A tidal wave of fatigue surged from the depths of his spirit, drowsiness, drowsiness, drowsiness.....
Yet the meditation mat beneath him supported him.
He didn’t know how much time had passed.
The two bodies, which originally only existed in ’imagination,’ reversed into reality, and then... descended into reality!
The Celestial Venerate left the meditation mat.
Zhang Fusheng opened his eyes.
Right before him, right beside him, in the cave charred black from repeated lightning strikes.
Lay the two bodies, pure as jade, immaculate and unstained.
One was his second senior sister, with a delicate face and disheveled wine-red hair, the other, a five-year-old form, with a third eye in the center of his forehead.
Since they would serve as his ’messengers,’ it was only fitting for them to have higher standing — so Zhang Fusheng, in his imagination, gave him an additional eye.
"In this way, I could even imagine people with wings on their backs, or directly conceive a Taotie..."
"Of course, just with the appearance of a Taotie."
The youth muttered wearily, yet his eyes shone brightly, quietly gazing at the newly birthed pure bodies.
Their souls had not been unbound, their consciousness was not yet permitted to awaken,
they merely lay on the ground, breathing instinctively,
yet Mysterious Factors surged towards the bodies like mad!
Ten meters, a hundred meters, a thousand meters!
Nearby Mysterious Factors flocked to enter the two naked bodies.
Zhang Fusheng softly narrated:
"Coming into existence from nothing, they are the ’source’ of their bloodline, the very first generation."
"In a certain sense, doesn’t that mean they are... Innate People?"
"Or perhaps, Innate Spiritual Beings?"
"No wonder Heaven and Earth were hissing in madness..."
A faint smile appeared on Zhang Fusheng’s pale face as if he vaguely grasped a remarkable capability!
The Heaven and Earth Tablet at the Five Mansions Temple, the ancient meditation mat inside the Eight Sceneries Palace,
embody immortal thoughts and exalted positions.
They truly could create spiritual beings!
Truly assembling the authority of the ’Creator’!
Despite the fatigue, despite the imperfection, the beings created could only reach the level of uncovering two layers of the Spleen Secret.
But it was only a beginning.
’Snap!’
Zhang Fusheng snapped his fingers, and the unconscious ones slowly opened their eyes.
A bright light appeared outside the cave.
A bolt of startling lightning struck down from the celestial vault.
’Rumble!’
