MTL - In the Great World of Martial Arts, You Use the Tao of Talisman To Rule the Ages?-Chapter 108 Complete Fire and Thunder Dharmakaya
Chapter 108: The Complete Fire and Thunder Dharmakaya
The moon is on the top of the mountain, and the dust is locked in the fog.
The huge mountains lurk secretly in the moonlight, and the pervasive poisonous miasma seems to be falling from the sky, blocking the entry and exit of all life.
Chen Lin lit up a talisman to ward off evil spirits and returned to the village under the protection of the spiritual light.
In his hand, he was also carrying a nine-foot gray snake that was as thick as a human arm and wanted to attack him on the way.
Compared to before, the village is quite lively now.
It is already April in Mengxia, and some families who hunt and dig medicine in Xiaojin Mountain will slowly return to live here until winter.
And this year is different from the past.
He is a famous figure from Nanshan Pass. Before Ajin and Ayin came back secretly, not even the gangsters from the He family dared to come and cause trouble.
As soon as the news spread, more and more mountain residents returned.
Many dilapidated and empty houses in the village have signs of being cleaned and lived in. Some people are even renovating and adding stoves and fire pits to the houses. It seems that they plan to stay there even in winter.
Lao Chai’s original house was also bulldozed and a new cabin was built. I don’t know who took over.
Although night has fallen.
Some people still lit bonfires in the village, and about twenty people talked to each other around the rising sparks.
“Master Lin.”
“Brother Lin!”
As soon as they saw Chen Lin coming back, everyone stood up to greet him, and Little Carrot, who was squatting by the fire to join in the fun, also came over.
Until I saw clearly what Chen Lin was holding, it was swaying, soft, and long...
“Ah!” He suddenly rushed back into his house, and with a bang, the door panel was almost broken.
The aunt didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she quickly went to take him out again.
“Let’s share this snake among ourselves.”
Chen Lin walked to the bonfire and handed over the nine-foot long snake.
Little Carrot shrank further when he saw this.
On the other hand, other mountain people happily took it and disposed of it, and divided a few pieces into each household.
After the interlude, voices continued to ring around the campfire.
Chen Lin listened for a while, all related to the county town.
Now the situation in the city is even worse.
Beicheng, which had plenty of food before, is now also facing the risk of food shortage because rice and flour shops are out of stock.
As for the two cities in the east and west, the grain trading in these two places was monopolized by a family named Zhang. They began to accumulate grains early and set up limited sales at one price per day.
Not only that, I heard that the entire county's food is now transported back from outside by the Zhang family's fleet. Only his family can transport the business ordered by the county magistrate Ren Chengjin.
No matter which grain merchant you are, you have to purchase goods from the Zhang family.
But the Zhang family doesn’t export goods at all...
The fishermen in Nancheng are having an even harder time. I heard that the fishermen are forced to drive small sampans deep into the dangerous waters of Daze to catch treasure fish to supply the needs of their martial artists.
In just a short period of time, more than 20 people died.
In today's fishing market, it is no longer strange for people to die, but it will be strange for one day to be immortal.
“Why do you need so many treasure fish at the fish market?”
Chen Lin couldn't help but ask.
Someone immediately responded: "I heard some rumors, it seems that they are going to take it as an offering, but I don't know who they are going to give it to..."
“I’ve also heard that many martial arts schools in Dongcheng are now spending a lot of money to buy precious fish and strange beasts. Even if they only have one leg, they want it!”
"Yes, I came here to hunt after I saw the reward they issued in Shanshi... Speaking of which, Mr. Lin was the one who suppressed them, otherwise those martial arts schools will definitely use their methods to drive us away like they bully fishermen. Shan works hard!"
“Yes, it must be Mr. Lin!”
…”
While everyone was chatting, they suddenly talked about tax collection.
Datao once collected summer taxes in August and paid autumn grain in February.
But for the people who fish and hunt, they only need to pay the mountain tax once every August. Generally, the mountain people are required to pay all kinds of skins and mountain things.
You can also pay in silver coins, with a discount of three coins per household.
Generally everyone chooses to pay in kind.
Not only will the tax burden become heavier this year, but summer taxes may have to be paid in June or even May...
As soon as this topic started, everyone said something to me, but no one had anything good to say, and the atmosphere became heavy.
It felt like a stone was falling in my heart at any time.
Everyone gradually lost interest in chatting, extinguished the bonfire and dispersed. Chen Lin returned to the house and remembered what they had just said. The special envoy Jin Yin Ding sent by the imperial court appeared in front of his eyes.
“It is estimated that those precious fish and strange beasts were provided to this person.”
“The times are so difficult, this ghost court will take pills sooner or later, so let’s continue practicing.”
The next day.
He then entered Jubao Mountain again and continued to find Lao Niu for body training.
…
…
The sun and moon rotate, and the stars move.
April 15th, the fourth level of Qi refining was easily achieved.
After breaking through the third level of Qi refining, it took another month and a half, and Chen Lin officially entered the middle stage of Qi refining.
As before, no bottlenecks were encountered.
The mana is more powerful, and the Geng-Gold Moon Phase Sword becomes more comfortable.
If we say it was easy to control before.
That is now like using an arm to use your fingers.
Chen Lin crossed his arms across his chest, with the moon phase sword hanging next to him.
He looked at the small patch of dense forest that had been flattened in front of him, and a wide cave that he had dug out with the Moon Phase Sword.
He nodded with great satisfaction.
There is now space black stone, which can carry supplies.
Even if you live in the mountains for a while, it won’t be too troublesome…
The old cow behind him opened his mouth and looked at the vast space in the cave with envy.
couldn't help but bite the corner of his clothes, tap the ground twice with the cow's hoof, and pointed directly at his old cow hole:
“Moo! Moo!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll widen it for you too…”
A moment later.
“Poof!!”
ulugululu…
One man and one cow were soaked and they withdrew from the old cow cave in embarrassment.
“Old Niu, why didn’t you say there was a fountain under the cave?”
Chen Lin was about to slap the cow's head hard, but he saw that the shameless old cow looked nonchalant and ran leisurely into the hole he had just dug.
boom!
It just lay down.
“You bastard! That’s my hole!”
…
A few days later.
Outside the newly dug old cow cave.
Chen Lin is sitting cross-legged on a giant tree, breathing in purple air facing the rising sun in the east.
There are red thunder lightning flashes all over the body surface, flowing around the body, and slowly condensing on the chest to form a thunder pattern full of violent aura.
The thunder pattern is shaped like a round bead, with a red fire on top and a sea of thunder on the bottom. There is only a thin line between them.
Electricity flashes.
Chen Lin's black hair was flying, his mind was concentrated, and he controlled the magic power in his body to push the thunder pattern on his chest to expand until...
The earth and the sky are connected, and the thunder patterns are completed!
brush!
In an instant, the thunder all over his body violently restrained and disappeared!
The scene just now seems to be just a big dream.
Chen Lin opened his eyes, but his eyes seemed to be transformed.
The pupils instantly turned into a pulsating golden red, like a blazing spiritual fire or like the thunder of the nine heavens.
A violent momentum suddenly rose, the leaves of the dense forest in all directions kept whirling, and even the air became oppressive.
The hot wind blowing by seems to have a hint of electricity, constantly sending dangerous signals to the surroundings.
The birds and animals dispersed in the forest, and for a while everything was completely silent.
“Fire and Thunder Dharmakaya, great success!”
Chen Lin slowly closed his eyes and quickly calmed down his momentum...
