Shi Feiyang originally intended to restrict Ji Fan's Lifebound Divine Demon, forcing it to swear allegiance to him in order to control it. He also wanted to use a Divine Demon he refined himself to replace Ji Fan's Guardian Divine Demon to monitor him for a long term but discovered that the West Pole Sect's approach of integrating three into one was indeed somewhat formidable.
Every time someone took a master, the master would sever a part of their Guardian Divine Demon to give to the disciple, becoming the disciple's own Guardian Divine Demon.
And the master's Guardian Divine Demon itself hailed from his own master, eventually tracing back to the origin, the Creator God.
As they cultivated, they swore allegiance to the Creator God, forming a mysterious connection; when their Lifebound Divine Demons were fully cultivated, their final destination after death would naturally be to the paradise where the Creator God resided.
The sect had over five thousand years of history, producing only six beings with Undying Bodies; most others either underwent Corpse Disintegration to reincarnate or their souls ascended to paradise when their time came.
Ji Fan couldn't swear allegiance to anyone else, so Shi Feiyang could only suppress his Guardian Divine Demon temporarily. If pressed too hard, it would dissipate, returning to its original form.
This thing was truly quite interesting.
"Do your job well. I'll come to see your results in a few days!"
Shi Feiyang took out the Yin Yang Creation Spirit Glue, spread it over the inside of Ji Fan's neck cavity, adjusted his head back to the correct position, and used the Five Elements Essence Qi to connect various blood vessels, airways, and nerves. Shortly after, he completely healed.
He then slapped Ji Fan's Primordial Spirit back into the cavity, recalled the Nine Child Mother Sky Demon, and floated away.
Ji Fan was left sitting staggeringly on the ground, unable to regain his composure for a long time. He touched his neck, feeling an indentation that hadn't fully healed, breathing and moving as before, but now with a faint pain and severe dizziness from excessive blood loss.
Looking through the open door at the night sky outside, Ji Fan's heart continued to pound violently: This person was too terrifying!
After leaving, Shi Feiyang didn't return to Tianjin but went to Bitter Bamboo Temple on Big Bear Ridge by the Yuan River in Yunnan.
He found Bai Guanhong, "I've opened Mingyu Immortal Market in Tianjin; I'll give you your own quarter to sell your Gu."
Bai Guanhong replied, "I only know how to raise and refine Gu; I don't know how to do business. My human body was given by you, all kinds of Gu worms were collected with your help, and this place was also provided by you. How about this, I'll give you all the Gu I refine, and you can sell them. I don't want the money; you can have it all."
Shi Feiyang laughed, "I have no use for money. You should sell them yourself. There are many good things in the Immortal Market, you should go and look around, and you'll surely find something you want to buy, and then you'll need money."
Bai Guanhong nodded, "Alright then."
Shi Feiyang then said, "Give me one Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu."
Without asking why, Bai Guanhong selected the largest one, with the deepest Dao Level—a fat one, about a foot and a half long.
Shi Feiyang had limited knowledge of the Gu Refining Skill, so he inquired about some refining methods and uses. Bai Guanhong naturally spared no detail in explaining.
After understanding everything, Shi Feiyang began casting spells in the temple to refine the Gu worm, using his own spiritual energy to refine it for three days and nights until the Gu worm merged with his will and obeyed him completely. Only then did he leave Yunnan and return to find Ji Fan.
Ji Fan was still recuperating, taking a large amount of medicines to replenish blood and Essence Energy every day.
Suddenly, Shi Feiyang pushed open the door and entered. The two maids serving Ji Fan had just turned their heads when they were possessed by two Demon heads, acting as if they didn't see him, their expressions calm, they walked out of the room with a tray, closed the door, and as for the Lifebound Divine Demon placed on the altar, it didn't react. Since it had already suffered a loss from the Nine Child Mother Sky Demon last time, it dared not show itself this time and stayed quiet as a chicken.
"Three days have passed, and you've done nothing. This disappoints me greatly. To resurrect you was a sheer waste of the Spiritual Medicine."
Ji Fan, trembling with fear, hurriedly said, "I've been extremely dizzy these past few days, breaking into profuse sweats after just a few steps... Although I haven't taken action, I've already come up with a method to deal with Xie Shan while lying in bed."
Struggling to get up, he reached for some papers on the table, "I've got people working together to write the 'Xie King Seventh World Awakening Sutra'..."
Shi Feiyang picked up the paper, and at the beginning saw, "Thus have I heard, at one time..." This was the standard beginning for a Buddhist Scripture, it seemed this fellow indeed had someone skilled in Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism.
He continued to read, "One time, the Buddha was in the Mahajati Country, at the Alara Kalama's Bodhimanda, beginning to achieve complete enlightenment... There were the Virtue Protector Bodhisattva, Bao Guang Bodhisattva, Saint Light Bodhisattva, Tianyu Bodhisattva, and Demon Suppression Bodhisattva... all were Mahas, all came to the assembly... There was the Mystic Dragon Bodhisattva, who circled the Buddha thrice, prostrated at the Buddha's feet, and spoke to the Buddha..."
Buddhist Scriptures typically listed many names at the beginning, filling seven pages rapidly, with nothing after that.
Shi Feiyang asked, "Where does Xie Shan appear?"
Ji Fan explained, "He is the Xuan Dragon Bodhisattva. I asked about his background, and they said he was originally a Black Dragon from Dinghu Peak who cultivated diligently with a heart toward virtue, once invoked Cloud Formation and Rainfall, protecting the locals. Many people saw him showing up back then. It's said his first existence was as the Xuan Dragon Bodhisattva; in his earliest life, he was a Great Poison Dragon.
Because he endured countless ants crawling on his body, eating his flesh, without harboring anger or hatred, he thus achieved the First Fruit Sotapanna. After seven lifetimes, this is his sixth existence, already having cultivated to the level of Bodhisattva ready for enlightenment. After one more life, he will attain Buddhahood."
"And what about your god? Where does he appear?"
"Our True God is called the Creator Tathagata King Buddha, the king of all Buddhas, the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas. The Three Realms and all heavenly beings were created by him; Xie Shan too was created by the Buddha King. In the first life, he was a Great Poison Dragon that tempted the ancient human ancestor woman Xia Yi to steal the Immortal Pill crafted by the Buddha King, and as punishment, he was driven from paradise, thrust into the vast ocean, cursed to crawl on his belly on earth, consuming soil for all of his days..."
