I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818: Chapter 306: Mantis Catching Cicada, Burning Beauty Behind! Ji Lianxing Stealing the Chicken! (Part 2)

"Starting from the Western Regions, let the Buddha’s radiant light fill every corner of Jiu Zhou!"

As Hui Neng spoke, he became more and more excited, his compassionate expression turned slightly ferocious.

Although the young monk couldn’t fully understand, he felt inexplicably uneasy, sensing that his senior brother seemed to have changed into a different person.

"There’s no time to waste, seize the chaos to find the Dragon Vein!"

Hui Neng took a deep breath, calmed himself, grasped the young monk’s shoulder, and vanished in a flash.

...

...

Since the "earthquake" occurred, Ling Ningzhi had been rushing around the city, using Daoist skills to assist the people, until her Primordial Qi was completely exhausted, allowing her a moment to catch her breath.

Staring at the ruined scene of collapsed walls and rubble, with cries and wails surrounding her, her exquisite face slightly paled.

"Why did it suddenly become like this?"

She really couldn’t comprehend.

The people were clearly still hanging lanterns, celebrating the arrival of the Longevity Festival.

The next moment, the street was shattered by a violent explosion, houses collapsed, beams snapped, and who knows how many people were crushed into pulp, transforming it into a literal hell.

"Could it be a rebellion?"

"But no rebel troops have entered the city, it seems it’s just wanton destruction..."

As Ling Ningzhi pondered, she suddenly sensed something and looked up sharply to the east, where a brilliant golden light flashed faintly at the horizon.

"It’s the Demon Suppression Department!"

"Not good!"

Ling Ningzhi crushed a piece of Spiritual Marrow, her Primordial Qi surging around her, flying towards the direction of the East Suburb.

Upon arriving at the Demon Suppression Department, she found the courtyard leveled to the ground, and her heart sank instantly as her form descended and scanned the surroundings, she noticed the dazed silhouette of Ling Yishan.

"Grandfather!"

She hurried forward, seeing Ling Yishan’s miserable appearance as her heart jumped to her throat.

Just when she didn’t know what to do, Ling Yishan suddenly inhaled sharply, his eyes regained a trace of vitality, and the fissured patterns on his body slowly dissipated.

"Cough, cough—"

He coughed violently a few times, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sighed, "Can’t fight old age, couldn’t stop him in the end, had to use the substitute technique to transfer the damage..."

"Grandfather, are you alright?" Ling Ningzhi asked concernedly.

"I’m fine." Ling Yishan shook his head, concisely said, "The one who came is a bald monk from Wuwan Temple, he holds a bizarre string of Buddha Beads, can gain power exceeding First Grade in a short time, do not engage him directly."

"But while I was grabbing his ankle, I left a mark, with this Spirit Talisman, you can track his exact position... he’s still in town, likely searching for the Dragon Vein."

Ling Yishan retrieved a Jade Talisman from his sleeve, handing it to Ling Ningzhi with a warning, "Take this, go find Qi Chengze at the Observatory, remember, don’t act alone..."

"Alright."

Knowing the gravity of the situation, Ling Ningzhi confirmed he was okay before accepting the Jade Talisman and swiftly departed.

After Ling Ningzhi left, Ling Yishan’s figure wavered, his back became hunched, the blood color quietly faded from his face, and the Spirit Platform was enveloped in a cyan-black deadly aura.

"Alas..."

"Time is running out..."

...

...

Hui Neng’s form almost merged with the shadows, silently moving with the young monk through the city.

Sweeping past the chaotic district, arriving at a desolate courtyard.

This area was also affected by the aftershocks, brick walls tilted, floor tiles cracked with fissures.

Hui Neng halted his form, his eyes filled with golden light, comparing with the scripture in his hand, carefully observing every inch of the area.

"Dependent origination is empty in nature, the Three Bodies and Four Noble Truths..."

"Green Dragon Locking Qi, Mountain Tablet suppressing the foundation... judging by the position, this should be the place."

Hui Neng stored away the scripture, golden light gathered in his palm forming a blade, striking down fiercely at the gap on the ground.

Boom—

The ground trembled, the fissure widened further, faintly revealing a deep shimmering glow beneath.

"Indeed, it’s here..."

"Who’s there?!"

The commotion alerted nearby patrolling soldiers, several figures landed in the courtyard.

However, before they steadied themselves, a golden light flashed, and suddenly they were decapitated, blood splattering the ground.
