Linzhang County, with a radius of dozens of miles, is silent.

There is black smoke emerging from the ground, rising up, quickly diffuse, the whole square city is like a huge steamer, but the rising steam is a different kind of black from the black of the night, extremely weird, incomparably evil, among them, there is a terrifying breath flowing, everywhere passed, all the creatures were pulled into the dream.

It's a huge nightmare, and nightmares are different, and what you fear most in your heart will meet in your dreams, and you can't break free from it.

In the world of Du Rui's previous life, there was a myth that someone kept pushing stones up the mountain in hell, and when they reached the top of the mountain, the stones would roll down the hillside, and everything would start from the beginning, endlessly, and repeatedly.

This was the case with all the people in Linzhang City in their nightmares, and their experience was the same as that of the person who was punished.

Endlessly facing one's own horror, at first I will feel fear, repeat it too many times, and after getting used to it, I will become numb, and in the end I will lose even the feeling of pain, just repeat everything indiscriminately, and after that, the self-will in the soul will disappear little by little, first the three souls, then the seven souls, once all of them are gone, as a living being, it will also lose its life.

If there are no surprises, it will be!

All of them lost their souls in this nightmare, leaving only their bodies, a body without a soul, and to outsiders, they were just dying in a deep sleep, and it didn't seem to be painful, but this was not the case, and all of them were suffering and dying in the nightmare.

This black qi is the true body of the evil spirit.

Call it a dream.

At this time, Li Yuan already knew that he couldn't control the expression on his face, and at this moment, it was like being painted with a layer of turquoise, and there was a trace of fear spinning in the depths of his eyes.

He had no way to deal with the Dream Spirit.

Even, there was no way for him to escape.

Now, all he could do was to use his mana to keep the light of the soul lamp in the sea of consciousness intensifying, so that the rotating runes would not disappear, so that the black qi could be kept out and protected from invasion.

However, will you be able to sustain yourself until dawn?

He didn't have that kind of confidence.

Mana is limited, if it is not replenished, it will eventually be exhausted, especially when he is running mana at full strength, in the past, he can use the exercises to absorb the aura of heaven and earth from the outside of the body, and convert it to his own use, but now it is naturally not possible, all the aura is expelled by the diffuse evil qi, once absorbed, it is just to inhale the evil qi into the body, what is the difference between it and opening the door to steal?

Dream Spirit!

If you want to expel it, you must be a demon suppressor who has lit two soul lamps, that is, a character like Huashan Zang Qingshu, similar to that existence, there is one in the Li clan of Zhaojun, however, this person has traveled far away in the East China Sea, and it is impossible to rush over, if all the demon suppressors in the manor go out together and form a magic circle, it is possible to fight against it.

Now that he's alone, it's impossible.

However, Li Yuan did not despair.

Since, His Royal Highness King Zhao can really sense the strange appearance of evil spirits and arrange for them to come to Linzhang County in advance, Patriarch Li Dan readily agreed, that is to say, the little novice in front of him, who is not afraid of black gas, must have two brushes.

Let's see......

Light!

In the darkness of the night, suddenly there was light.

It was a golden flame, a shallow golden flame, suddenly appeared in front of Li Yuan, in Li Yuan's sight, there was no figure of Huiyuan Xiao Shami, he seemed to disappear into the void, however, in his mind, Huiyuan Xiao Shami existed, however, it was no longer the appearance of a human being, but became a ball of golden light, a shallow golden light flame.

There is a divine aura in the air.

People can't help but want to bow their heads and worship sincerely!

Buddha?

He frowned slightly.

Li Yuan was born in the Li clan of Zhao County, and he was able to become a demon suppressor, not only with family resources, but also with his own talent, and most importantly, he would definitely not be a fool, he must have some knowledge, otherwise, Li Dan would not have arranged for him to come with Huiyuan.

He had read many secret books.

I know that in the previous dynasty, the Central Plains land Buddhism was lined up, at that time, there were some small novices like Huiyuan with the title of Buddha, they themselves carried the Buddha's light, and they had a sacred atmosphere of great compassion, at that time, the Central Plains land was peaceful, and the evil spirit was weird, and compared with now, the Buddhism at that time suppressed the evil spirit and weirdness much stronger.

Is this little novice a Buddha?

You know, the Tang Empire replaced the Great Qi Dynasty, Buddhism was suppressed, the Shaolin Temple, which was originally known as the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, was broken by the empire, even if there was a great master, the Shaolin Temple also chose to surrender, and now, it has become a ruin, and even the Tallinn behind the temple has mostly collapsed and broken.

Only in Jiangnan and other places, Buddhism still has some influence, and the Shaolin Temple of Nanzong still exists, but the influence is not the same as that of the Great Qi Dynasty.

His Royal Highness King Zhao actually has a Buddha as a companion, what does this mean?

Li Yuan is not an ascetic cultivator who is dedicated to cultivation, in the family, the kind of ascetic cultivator who is dedicated to ascetic cultivation does not have any right to speak, yes, even if they become a strong grandmaster, they have no ambition for mundane things, and Li Yuan is not that kind of person, he knows very well that although he has talent, however, the talent is not amazing enough to easily cross that level, he can light a soul lamp, it is already amazingly lucky, if you want to light a second soul lamp, there is basically no possibility in this life.

So, he has thoughts about the mundane world.

So, I thought about it more.

Now, although the Tang Empire did not suppress Buddhism as strongly as during the founding of the country, it was also rejected, so there were almost no Buddhist temples in the Guanzhong area, and in the Central Plains in the north, there were few Buddhist temples, and most of the monks in the temples were closed, dedicated to penance, and they did not see the wandering monks who would be seen in the south, the kind of ascetics who traveled everywhere with a staff and a bowl in hand.

In this case, King Zhao actually found a novice like a Buddha as a companion, is he stupid?

The patriarch of his own family actually supported such a King Zhao, and pressed the future of the Zhao Jun Li clan on this person, and changed the previous Zhao Jun Li's way of acting, it looks like he is making a fool!

You know, once you win all the studs, you win, and if you lose, you will lose the whole thing.

At that moment, Li Yuan thought a lot, but it was in an instant.

Then he saw the light bloom.

In fact, the breath of Buddhism and this evil spirit are natural enemies, the two are incompatible, once they meet, there will be a conflict, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, and it will definitely be divided into superiority and inferiority, life and death.

In Li Yuan's view, the golden light transformed by Huiyuan's little novice will purify the boundless evil qi and expel it into the void, and these evil qi that suddenly appears from somewhere in the void will surround the golden light, bent on devouring it, this confrontation is endless, until one party completely consumes all the energy, even if Huiyuan has the strength and is really a Buddha with boundless Buddhism, if you want to suppress the dream spirit and drive it away, you must consume a lot of vitality, and there will be a grinding battle between the two.

Before dawn, most of the time there is no winner or loser.

However, this moment is not the case.

At that moment, in Li Yuan's sea of knowledge, the golden light was shining, and there was a faint sound of Buddha, great compassion.

Almost instantly, there was a golden light on the entire Linzhang City, the node where the rune array was located, and at that moment, Huiyuan, who had already gained control of the Linzhang City magic array, used the city protection array to incarnate hundreds, as if there were countless clones appearing on the rune array node.

Countless evil qi swept in, and these evil qi from the void rushed towards the golden light.

It's instinct, the instinct of the dreamer.

For the evil spirits and weirdness, the cultivator's true qi and mana are nourishing supplements, especially the cultivator's divine thoughts, which are the best nutrients, which come from instinct, and they will not let go when they encounter them.

Especially Buddhism.

In the past, there were also Buddhist Arhats who were subject to demons in their hearts, and the lotus throne in the sea of consciousness was polluted by evil qi and degenerated into demons, at that time, the evil spirits would use the Arhat gold body as a container, and with their own sanity, they would become a terrible existence, just like the essence of Huiyuan, that time, if he could successfully break through the shell and be born, even Zang Qingshu would not be able to subdue him again.

Unfortunately, this dream spirit has no human will, and can only act on instinct.

If he had the will, he would probably have dodged as far as he could, and would never have pounced so greedily as he did now, knowing that something so delicious-looking was actually a poison to him.

The evil spirit poured into the golden light like gasoline thrown into the fire.

Although Huiyuan has Buddha nature and the memory of that Arhat, however, his body is actually an evil ghost, but by mistake, under the control of Du Rui, he has become what he is now.

The golden light of Buddha nature is just a bait, but there is an evil true nucleus in the depths of the origin.

His grade is above the dream spirit, and he is born to suppress the other party, if the other party escapes into the void and is no longer generated, he can't think about it now, but the dream spirit this guy pounced, and it was the same as a moth that pounced on the flames.

At the same time, all in the dream.

There was a golden light, above the sea of clouds, there was a young man who looked like a god and stood attached, and as far as the young man's gaze went, the boundless nightmare shattered, and in an instant, the black gas dissipated without a trace.

That young man was exactly what Du Rui looked like.

Naturally, it can't be the appearance of Huiyuan, Du Rui doesn't want to rebuild Buddhism and create a Buddha, what he needs is the faith of everyone, so, on the occasion of eliminating demons, he will imprint his own image in the souls of the people in Linzhang City, which is what it should mean.
