Chapter 542 The road is like wood(1/2)
Seeing that the Demon Subduing Manual had quietly added an extra page, Lin Yi knew that there was no end to the road, and the Demon Subduing Manual was still reliable.
When Lin Yi clicked on this page, nine words came to his face.
"The Tao is like wood, its hair is like branches, and its branches are like leaves."
Suddenly, he saw a towering tree. The tree branched out into countless branches, and each branch sprouted many green leaves.
And the surface of the green leaves was filled with various different gases. Suddenly, Lin Yi understood.
No wonder there is one sentence from Zhen Chuan. With just this sentence, Lin Yi understood the essence of the so-called Dao.
The rhizome of this tree can be regarded as the origin of the avenue. The infinite avenues all evolve on one path and divide into different parts.
Like the Taoist charm absorbed by the monks, it is like something escaping from the leaves.
Along with Ji Yi's realization, the picture disappeared, and what appeared in front of Ji Yi's eyes was the true appearance of the newly added page.
What I just saw was like a cutscene.
The page of the Demon Subduing Manual seemed to be only one page, but it had a lot of content, because Ji Yi saw the skill tree.
This is really a tree, with countless branches that finally converge into one trunk.
The branches are divided into left and right branches. There are obviously fewer branches on the left side, and Ji Yi can easily count them.
Under a branch line on this side, Ji Yi saw several points that could be lit.
"Wasp, leopard tail, fish gills, bird's beak..."
The killed Yin Shuai all appeared at the bottom of the branches. Ji Yi reached up with his tentacles and realized that by spending a hundred thousand years of Taoism, he could merge the authority they controlled.
Not only that, Lin Yi also learned about the upgrade route.
The four he killed happened to be all demon envoys, and the four demon commanders could spend an additional hundred thousand years of Taoism to merge into the authority of one demon envoy.
The Demon Envoy has four abilities in total. Ji Yi analyzed them from the perspective of their uses, which are the fish gills' enhanced perception and spiritual energy extraction, the wasp's Demonic Poison, the bird's beak's spell-breaking attack, and the leopard's tail's speed increase.
After the four-in-one, there is also a demonization ability, which can temporarily demonize any part of the body, not only a bird's mouth, a leopard's tail, but also a tiger's claws, ape's body, etc.
Although the power of Ji Yi's magic, sky, elephant and earth is more powerful, these tricks are more agile and faster, and consume less money.
It was precisely because of this synthesis that Lin Yi knew the upgrade route.
Four demon commanders of the same category can combine to form the Demon Envoy. So, if he had killed the Minotaur and Horse-faced Black and White Impermanence, he could also combine to create the Underworld Envoy.
Killing all the ten evil commanders can combine them into three. If he kills all the gods under King Yama, wouldn't it be possible to combine them into the authority of King Yama in the end?
Thinking along this line of thinking, Lin Yi's spirit was also lifted.
Normally, it is difficult for a person who has control of authority to usurp the throne. For example, Yama has absolute control over his subordinate gods. Once someone threatens him, he can use his authority to overthrow that person.
Drive yourself out of this way.
This way, there is no risk.
But Ji Yi does not take the ordinary path. This ability to forcibly deprive power, in the end, can be at least 50-50 against those who control this path.
He has half the authority, coupled with his extraordinary physical cultivation, the winning rate is definitely above 50%.
This is true for the Yama line, and it should be the same for other branch lines.
Lin Yi was inspired and felt that his idea should be right.
The domineering and powerful nature of the Demon Subduing Book was truly demonstrated at this moment.
The previous one is about killing people and seizing the Dao. This is nothing. Many magic weapons can do it, but the efficiency is not so high.
But to kill the god and seize power, if you say this, all gods will tremble.
The power of the demon envoy has greatly increased Ji Yi's strength. He is physically powerful, but he doesn't have many magical powers related to the physical body to use. He is usually very clumsy in battle.
The various spells he has used in the fight so far were all learned from other people's memories, but there are few people who practice physical training in the world. Naturally, those magical powers and spells are not so consistent with Ji Yi's, and they are all at the mortal level.
Killing someone weaker than him is like killing a chicken, but against someone of the same level or stronger, Ji Yi has no advantage.
Now that I have the authority of this evil messenger, I will be even more powerful.
The Demon Subduing Book is indeed as tempting as ever.
This is the case in the human world. As long as you kill demons, your moral conduct will improve, regardless of whether the other person is good or evil.
Now in the underworld, this temptation is even more obvious.
In order to obtain higher authority, Ji Yi will naturally want to collect the authority of others.
Every god who has control over authority is an irreplaceable part, which is completely different from killing monsters and taking advantage of the law.
Like some monsters that don't need to be killed, it doesn't matter if you leave them alone. There are so many monsters in the world, and you can just kill them in a different way.
But it’s different for God who has control over the authority. If he doesn’t kill, he can’t synthesize them.
By that time, in Ji Yi's eyes, the gods were just the materials that needed to be collected for upgrading.
Besides, the camp is wrong in the first place, so killing him is not a crime.
This is a terrible thing.
In the past, demon subduing charts could distinguish between good and evil, but now, the merits and demerits of gods are basically positive, which also makes Ji Yi unable to distinguish between good and evil.
It would be too time-consuming and laborious to investigate one by one carefully, and there is still the possibility of killing the wrong person.
Ji Yi is also worried that he will become a person who kills indiscriminately in the future, but in fact, his moral bottom line is declining again and again.
For example, during this trip to the underworld, he came to the underworld primarily to improve his moral conduct and to hunt.
What prompted him to make this decision was the pressure from the immortal world, as well as the fact that there were so many judges in the underworld who intended to invade the human world.
These are all real enemies.
But those Yin commanders and Ji Yi did not know each other before. When the two armies faced each other, Lin Yi was not merciful in the slightest, and his swords were deadly.
To this day, when we talk about good and evil morality, it really feels like we have become a prostitute and are still erecting memorial arches.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zero One doesn't know how to care about people, but seeing Lin Yi's expression sometimes solemn and sometimes sad, it is definitely not a good sign.
Ji Yi shook his head and said: "Nothing, let's go, first go hide in Banishing Yuan."
The Yin Qi in the Exile Abyss is very strong, and because it is a place of exile, resentment abounds. Even gods do not like to go there.
The only ones who have stayed in the Exile Abyss are the ghosts whose minds have been swallowed up by obsession.
Lin Yi thinks he can pass from there.
Although the formation has been destroyed, the space there may be relatively weak, and a passage back to the human world may be found.
"Then let's go!"
Ling Yi was very obedient and did not confront Ji Yi at this time.
Lin Yi couldn't help but asked curiously: "Who are you now?"
Ling Ling doesn't talk that much, she has always been very quiet.
And Ling Yi, who talks a lot and has a bad temper, how can he be so well-behaved?
Lin Yi was also worried about what Empress Taishan had done to her, so she asked this question.
When Ling Yiyi heard this, he suddenly became unhappy and asked: "Who do you want me to be more?"
Lin Yi: “…”
It was difficult to answer this question, so Ji Yi had to say: "I like you better the way you are now, but the changes are a bit big. I wonder if she did anything to you when you were at Empress Taishan's place."
In this way, no matter whether the person in front of him is Ling Ling or Ling Yi, Ji Yi will not be offended.
The corners of Zero One's mouth rose slightly, feeling a little proud.
Huh, I'm just too lazy to be obedient on weekdays, but if I'm a little more obedient, wouldn't he like me?
As for Ji Yi's concerns, Ling Yi waved his hand casually and said: "She didn't do anything to me, she just treated me to delicious food for a few days and took me around.
We hold candles every night and talk about the past."
Ji Yi quickly locked in the elements.
"Talking by candlelight at night? You two sleep together every day?"
Yo, are you jealous?
Ling Yi felt more and more happy, but pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Yes, is there anything wrong with this?"
Unlike Ji Yi, she doesn't have some strange knowledge in her head.
Lin Yi couldn't help but cover his face. This silly girl probably didn't even realize that she was being eaten.
However, the most they could do was sleep together, and nothing more extreme would happen, otherwise she wouldn't be so calm.
After thinking about it, Ji Yi just said: "It's better not to sleep with her in the future."
The guards and commanders of Empress Taishan are all women, which shows that she likes girls. Even if she has no mortal desires and just likes to get along with beautiful girls, that is too orange.
