Black Myth: You and I are both destined

Everything that Madam Red Snake did was too obvious to be concealed.

A large number of demon kings and little demons on this mountain died, all because Lady Red Snake used a treasure chest at the foot of the mountain to lure Tianming up the mountain.

This is an open conspiracy. Humans and demons cannot coexist. As long as we go up the mountain at dawn, this will be the result.

But Tianming didn't hate all this. After going up the mountain, he had a clearer understanding of the world.

Lady Red Snake came to Tianming and slowly told him a Buddhist story.

"These things all start from Lingshan, where there are beautiful mountains and clear waters, and numerous temples. It is a holy place in the hearts of many Buddhists."

“It all started with a story about a robber and Buddha.”

She began to narrate with a hint of melancholy in her voice: "Five hundred years ago, there was a robber who committed countless crimes and was eventually sent to hell."

The lady continued, "But the Buddha was merciful. He saw the only good deed in the robber's heart, which was his kindness in releasing a spider at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. The Buddha decided to give him a chance, so he descended from the sky and dropped a thin spider silk."

Mrs. Red Snake's voice became low, as if she could feel the robber's joy and hope: "The robber found this spider silk. He was ecstatic and began to climb up along it, hoping to escape from hell."

"But more and more sinners discovered the thread and tried to climb it. The robber got scared, worried that the thread would break, so he started kicking those below him."

Lady Red Snake sighed, her voice full of disappointment: "But it was this selfish behavior that caused the spider silk to break."

"The Buddha saw all this and knew that the robber had not yet truly learned compassion."

The story ends abruptly here.

Tianming looked up at the silk threads, and they really looked more like spider silk.

"Mrs. Red Snake, you've already tricked me once. This time it won't be so easy."

"The Buddha I know is not the same as the Buddha you are talking about!"

But Lady Red Snake did not answer, nor did she intend to leave, as if she was waiting.

Tianming looked at Madam Red Snake in front of him and thought in his heart.

"She is now the biggest winner in Ziyun Mountain. There is no need for her to stay here. This will only cause trouble."

'Then why did she come in twice and tell me this story?'

"Buddha? Robber?"

Tianming seemed to have a new idea.

'Mrs. Red Snake has been evasive in her words since the beginning, but it seems that she is of a high status and knows something that others do not know.'

'So the story she told was a metaphor!'

Tianming connected all these things together and said to Madam Red Snake.

"The robbers are the ones who climbed up along the silk thread. The ones who want to climb up now are the Pleiades Star Lord. No, it should be all the monsters in Ziyun Mountain!"

"The Buddha means people who are born to let go of the spider silk, and people who really want to help them ascend."

"But the real spider silk has been broken, and the people who wanted to help them no longer help them, so the spider silk now is fake."

"The current ascension is a scam!"

Tianming looked at the red snake.

"Am I right?"

"Yes or no."

"Oh, Madam Red Snake feels something is wrong."

"Why?"

"Why?" Tianming pondered over what Lady Red Snake said, and gradually he discovered that there was a point in the story he had never considered.

In the story of Lady Red Snake, the last sentence is that Buddha said that these robbers had not learned true compassion.

This is the reason why the 'Buddha' no longer lets go of the spider silk.

Lady Red Snake would not add anything useless to this fable.

Simple combing.

Once upon a time, people in heaven helped people on earth to ascend to become immortals, and people on earth gave them "mercy" in exchange, but now there is no "mercy" anymore.

So now the real path to ascension no longer exists, but there are some behind-the-scenes forces who are harvesting those creatures who want to ascend.

The problem seems simple now, and there are only three questions.

Tianming said to Red Snake: "I roughly understand it, but now I have three questions."

“What is compassion?”

"Who is behind the fake ascension?"

"Who is Ziyun Mountain's master?"

After hearing Tianming's three questions, Hongshe looked even more shocked!

"I didn't expect you to be so smart. It would be nice if he were here."

"I can only answer your third question."

"There is a Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, named Huanghua Temple. The Taoist priest loves to collect herbs and make elixirs."

"I once boiled a thousand kilograms of bird droppings into one spoonful, then refined it into three parts, and fried and tempered it. After it was made, only one centimeter was enough to kill a person. Even gods could not exceed three centimeters!"

"In order to cover up the stench, they crushed dates and brewed tea to trick people into taking the medicine, and then used living people to make the medicine. It was called date poison!"

"This person is called the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord. If you meet him in the future, don't get close to him."

At this point, Tianming understood everything.

Although it is not mentioned directly, it makes no difference.

The master here is the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, the date poison is the poisonous miasma here, and the last elixir made from living creatures is lotus hail.

I think the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord is the senior brother of the spider spirits. In the original novel, he was taken back by Bodhisattva Vimala to guard the gate. Unexpectedly, now Dao Fan Tiangang has occupied Ziyun Mountain!

The most terrifying thing is that a high-level deity like the Pleiades Star Official has actually fallen to the point of being used as a medicine by others!

How is this possible?

Even if it was the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord, so what? He was subdued by the Bodhisattva Vimala using the divine needle made from the eyes of the Pleiades Star Official. This was a natural nemesis!

Thinking of this, Tianming started to wonder again.

The Pleiades star official is the Dark Moon Demon Lord. When he was fighting with Tianming just now, he didn’t feel the oppression from him as a high-level deity at all.

If he was really in his prime, how could he be killed by Tianming using a stick and poisonous miasma?

Tianming stood up and walked down the mountain.

"Young Master, are you going down the mountain?"

"Yes, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord you mentioned must be very powerful. I don't want to wait for him to come."

"If he finds out that I broke his lotus hail, and he has nothing to eat and can't ascend, that would be troublesome."

"Oh!" Tianming turned around: "How did you know I would come?"

Mrs. Red Snake thought for a moment and replied, "I didn't know it was you."

It seems that Mrs. Red Snake only knows that someone will come to help her, but she doesn't know who will come.

"Young Master, I am leaving too. Perhaps we will meet here someday. If you run into any trouble before then, come to Mount Li and I will help you."

"I know."

Tianming didn't say it directly, but he had already guessed the true identity of Mrs. Red Snake.

Now she calls herself an old person. In the beginning, she liked to pretend to be a widow. She lived in Mount Li, knew everything about the sky, had a high status, and watched the star official of the Pleiades grow up.

There is only one immortal who meets these conditions, the Jade Purity Saint Ancestor Zi Yuanjun - the Mother of Lishan!
