《80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled》Chapter 140: The Jiangnan Hundred Ghosts Portrait Shows Its Might
Advertisement
Monk Qingyun looked at Lin Jiufeng meaningfully.
He knew that Lin Jiufeng was very powerful.
He also knew that Lin Jiufeng was the guardian deity of the Yuhua God Dynasty and had the responsibility to protect the people of the dynasty.
Hence, he directed a meaningful gaze at Lin Jiufeng.
Without blinking…
His thoughts were written all over his face.
Lin Jiufeng shivered under his gaze.
Although there were traces of age on him, Qingyun was still a handsome and charming monk.
And he stared at Lin Jiufeng without blinking.
What's more, his expression looked wronged and aggrieved. He was giving off a vibe similar to that of a young lady in need.
Lin Jiufeng was speechless.
Lin Jiufeng knew what Monk Qingyun was thinking.
He just wanted Lin Jiufeng to deal with this underground cave, right?
Why was there a need to look at him in such a disgusting way?
Meow!
The white cat had been watching silently all this while.
But now, she let out a shriek and stared angrily at Monk Qingyun.
The cat felt that her territory was being invaded.
Monk Qingyun retreated awkwardly and said, "Senior, may I invite you to take action and get rid of this demon's den?"
"No problem." Lin Jiufeng agreed directly.
Monk Qingyun was stunned.
He didn't expect Lin Jiufeng to agree so readily.
"Senior, don't you need to consider it first?" Monk Qingyun asked.
"There's no need to think about it. Your Dalin Temple discovered this demon's den and suppressed it for more than a thousand years. Your temple has contributed greatly to the dynasty. I naturally won't decline. Even if not for you guys, for the people of Jiangnan, I will still take action," Lin Jiufeng said.
He looked at the bottomless pit with a probing gaze.
He wanted to see how many active demonic creatures were inside the cave.
After hearing Lin Jiufeng's words, the excited Monk Qingyun asked, "Senior, how do you plan to deal with the demonic creatures in this underground cave?"
"Should we continue to reinforce the seal? This way, the seal can persist for another few decades." Monk Qingyun suggested.
"Why should we continue to do something like drinking poison to quench our thirst?"
Lin Jiufeng countered.
Monk Qingyun asked curiously, "Why is this drinking poison to quench our thirst? The Dalin Temple did the same thing back then."

"Won't they become stronger if you continued to seal them?"
"Aren't these demonic creatures stronger than they were 30 years ago?"
"If we continued to seal them, wouldn't we be letting them quietly become stronger inside? But you won't know this. You're thinking right now that everything will be fine, but when the time comes, they will explode out with their full power and we won't be able to stop them anymore."
Lin Jiufeng said in a matter-of-factly way.
These words made Qingyun feel ashamed, but at the same time, he felt helpless. "I don't want to do this either, but there are at least a thousand demonic creatures here. If we don't reinforce the seal, what should we do?"
Lin Jiufeng stretched out his hand and pointed.
Then, he said coldly, "Naturally, the only way is to kill them."
"Kill them?" Monk Qingyun looked at Lin Jiufeng, dumbfounded. "There are a thousand demonic creatures there, and they are powerhouses. If it wasn't for this Heavenly Dao Sealing Array, our Dalin Temple would've already been destroyed by them…"
How were they supposed to kill these demonic creatures?
Lin Jiufeng looked at Monk Qingyun calmly and asked, "These so-called a thousand demonic creatures that you've mentioned… Are they really powerful?"
Monk Qingyun was about to say that they were very powerful, but he quickly shook his head after taking a look at Lin Jiufeng. "Of course, they aren't as powerful as you."
"Since they aren't as powerful as me, I can kill them then," Lin Jiufeng replied.
"It's not just one or two demonic creatures though. There are at least a thousand demonic creatures there. An army of ants can even kill an elephant." Monk Qingyun explained.
"Even if there are five thousand demonic creatures in there, they are still lambs waiting to be slaughtered. There's no need for you to worry about them. If you don't agree to kill them, then you can handle the demonic creatures yourself. I won't help anymore," Lin Jiufeng said lightly.
Monk Qingyun's expression turned vicious as he shouted, "Kill them!"
"They deserve death!"
"I support you in killing these demonic creatures, senior! The Buddhist sects are particular about not killing, but if killing a demonic creature can save tens of thousands of people, I will do it…"

"Let alone killing these demonic creatures. I will be the first to support you, senior!"
"I will do whatever senior says."
Monk Qingyun's expression changed in an instant.
Right now, he was 100% supportive of Lin Jiufeng.
As for him handling the demon's den on his own?
He was unwilling to do such a thing.
Since Lin Jiufeng said that he wanted to kill the demonic creatures in the underground cave, Monk Qingyun would just do as Lin Jiufeng said. After all, even if the sky fell, there would be taller people to hold and support the sky for the weaker ones down below.
Lin Jiufeng looked at Monk Qingyun and smiled…
The latter's heart jumped.
"Senior. Since you said that you want to kill them, how are you going to do it?"
Monk Qingyun hurriedly asked.
"I'll kill them directly. Just remove the seal and let them come out. Let's kill them all," Lin Jiufeng replied casually.
"Isn't that too dangerous?" Monk Qingyun murmured.
"Do you have a better solution?" Lin Jiufeng squinted at him.
"No, I will listen to senior. Then, shall I undo the seal now?"
Monk Qingyun immediately shook his head and replied decisively.
"Guard the entrance for me. Don't let anyone in. I will open the seal now."
Lin Jiufeng instructed Monk Qingyun.
Monk Qingyun was very obedient. He immediately guarded the entrance and raised his guard.
He positioned himself in a way that he could easily slip away if something went wrong.
Lin Jiufeng ignored him and looked at the Heavenly Dao Array that Miss Hong had set up.
His eyes glistened as he looked at the array.
"There's nothing special about this array, except that its connection to the Heavenly Dao is pretty good. As expected of a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect, its affinity with the Heavenly Dao is extraordinary." Lin Jiufeng muttered calmly as he analyzed the structure of the array.
If the affinity to the Heavenly Dao of an ordinary person was one.
Then, the affinity to the Heavenly Dao of the people from the Heavenly Dao Sect was 10.
Or maybe even higher…
But Lin Jiufeng wasn't envious.
Those with high affinity and those who were members of the Heavenly Dao sect were indeed blessed with ample benefits and opportunities, but it also meant that they had a responsibility to shoulder.
For example, Miss Hong suppressed the experts of the previous era time and time again, as she did her best to delay their return to the world.
This was the responsibility of the people from the Heavenly Dao Sect.
She couldn't escape this responsibility.
Hence, Lin Jiufeng wasn't envious of her.
After observing for a while, Lin Jiufeng directly stomped his foot.
Boom!
The seal instantly exploded.
Lin Jiufeng used brute force to crush the seal.
The huge impact was directly carried by him into the depths of the demon's den.
Dong dong dong!
A huge explosion happened in the underground cave. Sonic waves spread out and shook the ground. The demonic creatures in the underground cave woke up one by one. They looked up and saw that the seal had disappeared.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Roars that shook the sky reverberated as they rushed out of the cave.
The vibrations spread across the entire Dalin Temple.
The monks of Dalin Temple were petrified.
They all rushed over.
"All of you, stay where you are! There's no need for you to come over. I've hired an expert to handle this, don't get involved!"
Monk Qingyun roared, not letting them come over to disturb Lin Jiufeng.
Fortunately, the monks of Dalin Temple were obedient.
They stopped and watched nervously.
As for the demonic creatures in the demon's den, they rushed up rapidly, brandishing their fangs and claws.
They were in all sorts of strange shapes, looking aggressive and terrifying.
When their auras overlapped, even Lin Jiufeng's aura seemed insignificant.
But Lin Jiufeng didn't fight with them.
He took a step back and took out something.
Jiangnan Hundred Ghosts Portrait!
Lin Jiufeng injected all of his True Qi into the painting and activated the Jiangnan Hundred Ghosts Portrait.
Shuash!
A painting unfurled, blocking the entrance of the demon's den.
The terrifying demonic creatures rushed forward one after another, only to crash against the Jiangnan Hundred Ghosts Portrait.
The Jiangnan Hundred Ghosts Portrait itself was an immortal artifact.
Thus, it was extremely powerful.
Although it lacked a portion of its power, with Lin Jiufeng's help, it was able to capture the demonic creatures and instantly use the energy inside the portrait to kill them in an instant.
