Chapter 257: Shameful Skill, I Am Not A Good Fox

Suddenly, Gu Yuan and the others wanted to join Buddhism.
That was a Luck Treasure. It was approved by Heaven. If nothing went wrong, the Buddhism religion could prosper!
Yuecha was too freaking awesome. That was her first visit to the expert. The expert liked her and blessed her.
Why? Was she the lucky Chosen One?
First, it was the Human Sovereign. Then, it was Buddhism. The expert had started his schemes.
Once the Immortals were more reconnected to the ordinary people of the Immortal Realm, it would be more like the eldritch eras.
What a sight to be seen. They were filled with anticipation.
They were so lucky to witness it every step of the way. They had learned a lot.
Yuecha carefully caressed the Buddhist Scripture. She had love in her eyes. It was as if she was looking at her child. The Buddhist Scripture signified the start of something new.
She stood up and bowed respectfully at Li Nianfan. She said from the bottom of her heart, “Mr. Li, you’re like the living Buddha!”
Li Nianfan quickly waved and laughed. He said, “No way.”
Yuecha was silent for a while. Then, she finally said, “Mr. Li, I still have a question.”
Li Nianfan said curiously, “Tell me.”
Yuecha tried to put her sentence together and felt slightly anxious. She asked in a low voice, “In ‘Journey to the West’, the Monk became Buddha. What happened to Buddhism then? Was it successful?”
Everyone started to breathe heavily. They looked at Yuecha in agreement. What a wonderful question!
It would not work if you asked the expert about the eldritch eras directly. Questions had to be asked with technique. Then, the expert would be glad to answer it.
The expert liked to tell stories so she asked a question regarding the story. It would not displease the expert. What a nice touch from Yuecha!
“This…”
Li Nianfan smiled. He sat down and looked like he was reminiscing. He said softly, “There is indeed an excerpt to the ending of the story.”
Here it comes!
Storytime!
Everyone was exhilarated. They instantly sat down and listened closely.
Li Nianfan noticed that and laughed. “It’s just a story. You guys don’t need to be like that.”
Payne immediately said, “Don’t mind us, Mr. Li. We like listening to stories.”
Li Nianfan did not mind it either. The plot of ‘Journey to the West’ was more relatable to Immortals, so they liked it more than ordinary people would. There was nothing wrong with that.
He groaned for a moment and said, “When Buddhism was Westernized, it was successful in the West. It was better than all the other religions and became the main religion. A lot of people think that Buddhism is unstoppable. However…”
Everyone felt their hearts beating out of their throats. They wanted to rush him but did not dare to.
Li Nianfan gave them a cliffhanger on purpose. Then, he said, “Something happened in the end. There was a Demon named Lawless that came out of nowhere. He was extremely powerful. He caused a lot of trouble for the Buddhists.”
Everyone was simultaneously shocked. “Lawless? What a bossy name!”
“Someone dared to be named Lawless?”
Yuecha asked, “Mr. Li, was Lawless more powerful than Buddha?”
Li Nianfan shook his head, “Lawless was the reincarnation of the Calamitous Black Lotus. It forced the Buddha to reincarnate as a newborn, forcing him to restart his cultivation again. Wukong self-destructed as a Relic to die with Lawless. You tell me if you think Lawless was powerful or not.”
Yikes.
Everyone gasped. They felt like it was creepy. They were extremely horrified.
They were familiar with Buddha and Wu Kong. One of them was the main character, another was the final boss. However, they were forced to do those things because of Lawless.
How could they not be shocked?
Only a savage could call himself Lawless.
No wonder Buddhism was left in the past. They encountered such a powerful character!
Lawless did not exterminate Buddhism completely but Buddhism lost Buddha. Hence, when Buddhism lost the main character, Wukong, the fate of Buddhism was set. Plus, they would be targeted by other opponents. It was fated to be lost over time.
The eldritch world was filled with bigshots. How intensely scary!
Yuecha felt an impact on her faith. She asked, “How did Lawless become so powerful?”
“Haha, it’s just a story. Don’t worry about it. Also, it’s the Prehistoric World. There were a lot of bigshots during that time.”
Li Nianfan smiled. The story was shortened and simplified by him so he did not expect the Immortals to enjoy it so much. How interesting.
Prehistoric?
What did it mean?
They had a lot of questions but they noticed that Li Nianfan was not willing to answer any more questions. So, they did not continue to ask. They stood up and said their farewells instead. They had a lot to process.
The four of them walked out of the four-part architecture. They could not remain calm.
Yuecha was holding onto the ‘Diamond Sutra’ like it was the Bible. She could not wait to start reading it.
The book emitted its own golden lights. It also had an audiobook effect as they heard hymns echoing.
Yuecha walked slowly. She was mesmerized by the Buddhist Scripture.
She was obsessed with Buddhism. From time to time, she would say to herself, “Nice, so nice.”
Payne and the others were following her by the side. They were jealous.
The Scripture contained Luck and wise Buddhist practices. They thought about how powerful Buddha and the 108 strong men were. They could tell the book was powerful and full of knowledge.
Yuecha finally snapped out of it when they were at the foot of the mountain. She carefully put the Buddhist Scripture away and did the Namaste gesture. She looked at everyone and said, “Amitabha. What are the three of you planning to do next?”
“We plan to check out the front lines of the battle. We’re going to stop the demons. If we can, we also plan to check on some Immortal Relics.” Gu Yuan paused. He suddenly smiled and said, “It’s unexpectedly funny now that we’re speaking. For thousands of years, you were sealed in our Azure Ville. Who would’ve thought you’d become one of us?”
“That’s why I said you all have a predestined fate with Buddha,” nodded Yuecha. Then, she said, “I plan to preach Buddhism and make it powerful and prosperous again. If you guys change your mind, feel free to join anytime.”
“We’ll consider it, ” Payne said sincerely.
Ding Xiaozhu suddenly asked, “Tara Yuecha, did you realize that the expert already paved the way for Buddhism preaching?”
Yuecha nodded, “Yeah. ‘Journey to the West’ is already popular. The success rate for Buddhism preaching will be high. The expert’s schemes are unimaginable.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They gradually grew more shocked by the expert’s methods.
One move from a chess piece could change the entire game. A seemingly casual move might be a huge scheme. Once they began to see the light, they then realized there was a meaning behind each move.
They thought ‘the game’ of the bigshots was very cool but they never witnessed it first-hand. They finally admitted they were just insects when they met the expert. They were even proud to be chess pieces.
They thought about it for a while then they said their goodbyes and left.
The sky gradually became dark.
Soon, it was nighttime.
Daji and the Fire Phoenix walked out of the four-part architecture at the same time. They headed into the woods.
Soon, they saw a small fox that was leaping around in the woods. Her nine pure-white tails shined under the moonlight. It was beautiful and pure.
“Hehe, sister.” The little fox wrapped one of her tails around a branch in front of her. Then, she gently swung herself and flew toward Daji. Her nine tails wagged fast as she said, “I grew out my ninth tail.”
“You’re laughing? I spent so much energy just for you to grow out your ninth tail. What’s there for you to boast about?” teased Daji. She smiled and said, “Since you have nine tails now, what’s your natural gift?”
The little fox did not dare to look at Daji. She said quietly, “Oh, yeah. Sister, I don’t think I have any natural powers.”
Daji twitched and held the little fox up by her tail. “Stop bluffing. Tell me now!”
“Okay, okay…”
The little fox had teary eyes. She looked pitiful. Then, she leaped into Daji’s embrace. “Boohoo, no… I can’t say it. I’m not a good fox.”
Daji said through clenched jaws, “Speak!”
The little fox’s ears drooped downward. “It’s too embarrassing. I can’t say it.”
“Hehe, is it fox stench?” laughed the Fire Phoenix. She teased, “Skunk attack to scare the enemies away?”
The little fox was pissed. “No, it’s not!”
Daji frowned. She said in a serious tone, “Stop messing around! The Master wants us to do something. Show me your skills. Let’s see if you can help us.”
“Oh.”
Noticing that her sister was mad, the little fox did not dare to say anything further. She started playing coy.
“Then, I shall show you.”
She raised her nine tails and used her powers.
Daji and the Fire Phoenix noticed the aura of the place changing into a pinkish one. They started having weird emotions. Suddenly, they felt like the Nine-Tailed Fox in front of them was so beautiful. She was so fluffy and her fur was shiny and smooth. So cute. They felt mellow and wanted to reach out to caress her.
Then, they snapped out of it. They were shocked and surprised.
They looked at the little fox.
The little fox wrapped herself up with her tails. She cowered beneath them, sobbing quietly.
Daji shook her head. She was speechless. “What are you doing?”
“Boohoo, it’s so embarrassing!”
The little fox continued to bury her head. She acted as if she had just sinned. “I’m just a pure, innocent little fox. Why would I have this sort of awakening? Boohoo, I’m so ashamed.”
“Where did you hear that from?”
Daji felt awkward. She asked, “You have the most powerful gift a Nine-Tailed Fox could ever have. Why are you embarrassed?”
The little fox sobbed, “Isn’t Seduction shameful? I’ve become the Vixen that everyone hates. Can I not use my power at all?”
“The name ‘Vixen’ is famous because of Seduction. It’s not because Seduction is shameful, but because it’s so powerful.”
Daji shook her head and explained, “To be more accurate, the real name of Seduction is Mind Control. You can warp a person’s mind without them knowing it!”
She looked like she was convinced.
Mind Control, the most powerful skill a Nine-Tailed Fox could have. She could warp minds. How scary! She could get someone into trouble in an instant.
Moreover, her magical power was different from the other Forces of God. It had no consequences!
For example, you would face consequences if you attack the Human Sovereign and it would be difficult to succeed. However, the Nine-Tailed Fox could simply seduce the Human Sovereign. It was twisted.
Daji thought it would be nice if she had that sort of awakening.
Then, her Master could…
She quickly shook her head. How could she think of her Master like that? Such dirty thoughts!
“Is that so?” The little fox looked up at her. “But it’s unlikeable.”
The Fire Phoenix said, “The skill is truly frightening.”
“Seducing civilians is so scary. It’s naturally unlikeable.” Daji took a deep breath and said, “But it’s good and it’s powerful. Follow us to the Above Immortal Realm.”
“The Above Immortal Realm?” The little fox was immediately intrigued. She could not wait.
Daji nodded, “That’s right. The Master wants to drink milk from the Five-Color Sacred Cow. We have to capture it from the Above Immortal Realm. However, the cow is an Immortal Beast that has lived for a long time. It’s a force to be reckoned with, but we can catch it with your gift.”
“You want me to seduce a cow?”
The little fox did not look happy at all. “No way! Boohoo, I knew having this skill would be shameful!”
