Chapter 142: The Sad Story Of Yaksha Spirits tribe
A green paper scroll was currently laying inside his soul sea. Joey used his soul force and moved it toward his golden soul ball with purple stripes. Finally, it was sucked inside the soul ball. Then, Joey started comprehending the skill quickly.
After a few minutes, he opened his eyes and said, “Grandpa Du Shan, please remove your shirt and seats before me. “
The old man removed his shirt and sat just before him.
Joey then started chanting the mantra of the ‘Heavenly Carb Leaping and Breaking the Seal’ in a strange tone. Soon, a diamond shape seal appeared on his right hand. Then, he pressed it on the navel of the old man. After that, he pressed it again on the forehead of the old man.
Immediately, two popping sounds could be heard from inside Du Shan’s body. Then he started flying up passing through the thatch of the house and finally stopped high above in the sky.
A large amount of essence qi was absorbed inside his body. Then, his cultivation base started rising up slowly and finally stopped at lvl 10 of the Supreme God Realm. At the same time, his old-aged body started changing and slowly transformed into a middle-aged man.
Then he landed on the ground, kowtowed toward Joey, and spoke loudly, “I, Du shan the current chieftain of the Yaksha Tribe make a pledge to our ancestors that we Yaksha Spirits will follow you from today onward. Thank you, young master.”
“Grandpa Du, do you recover all your memories now? Please, stand up.” Joey appeared before him and picked him up.
“Yong Master, I am not joking.” Grandpa Du Shan said firmly.
“Alright,” Joey said.
“Now, I remember everything now,” said Grandpa Du Shan and started telling him his story.
This world was ruled by four powerhouses. They were Theravada Buddhist Monastery, Mahayana Shaolin Temple, the Great Wang Empire, and the Black Tiger tribe. Once the Theravada Buddhist Monastery and the Mahayana Shaolin Temple were under the same monastery. But, due to differences in their ideology, they finally broke into the current two factions.
(Theravada Buddhism: It has been practiced in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia such as Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand.)
(Mahayana Buddhism: It is also practiced in Nepal, Malaysia, Bhutan, China, Korea, Vietnam, and Taiwan.)
For more than a thousand years, the Yaksha Spirits had been serving for the Theravada Buddhist Monastery. They had been doing all the dirty works for them. But, ten years ago, something bad happened to them. The old Uncle of Du Shan went missing suddenly. At the same time, the Buddarupa that he had been guarding also went missing. So, the monastery accused them of stealing the Buddarupa and held a trial for whole the tribe.
(Buddarupa: statue of Buddha)
The result of the trial was that the whole Yaksha Spirit tribe was sentenced to death. But the Sangharaja intervened and finally announced that the Yaksha Spirit tribe had been the humble servant of the Theravada Buddhist Monastery and removed the death sentence. Instead, he gave another order to seal all of our memories and cultivation base and kept us under the supervision of the Black Panther Tribe. (Sangharaja is the patriarch of Theravada Buddhist Monastery )
“Alright, let go outside.” Grandpa Du Shan said and all of them get outside the room.
Joey saw that the village was messed. Then he looked at Du Shan while feeling some guilty.
A big feast was prepared for them. They had a simple party the whole day. After finishing the party. Joey then released all the seals of the 55 Yaksha spirits.
“Young Master Joey, we need to leave this place tomorrow. When you unseal all of our seals on our bodies, they must have noticed it.” Du Shan warned at him.
“Alright, we will leave this place tomorrow,” Joey said.
Then, everyone returned to their houses.
Late at night Joey came out of his house and happened to see Hai Yun sitting beside the village pound while staring at the sky.
“Floral Lady, you are here. So, you also like staring at the night sky.” Joey said and sat beside her.
She nodded her head.
“Brother Joey, let me tell you something I witness that day. Do you remember shouting at the sky while you kept laughing weirdly?” Hai Yun asked.
“Nope, when did I do that?” Joey asked.
“Just after Jiu You’s heavenly Tribulation had finished, suddenly your eyes turned pitch black and you shouted at the sky. That time, you seem to have become another person completely.” Hai Yun explained.
“But, I don’t remember that,” Joey replied.
“Are you alright now?” Hai Yun asked and looked at him with concern.
“Hey, I am fine. Don’t you see?” Joey replied with a warm smile.
“Hahaha, you seem to have more concern for me now.” He chuckled and said to her.
She blushed and quickly turned away her face from him.
Joey suddenly cubbed her face and kissed her forehead.
“Ahh!” She exclaimed and remained stunned for a few seconds. Then she glared at him and shouted, “What the hell are you doing?”
“Hey, did I do something wrong?” Joey asked her shamelessly.
“You, you…. Fine, I am leaving.” She said and started walking toward her room.
“Wait! ” Joey appeared before her blocking her path and said, “I know you have feelings for me. But, why are so stubborn to admit it? I will tell you this, I really like you.”
“I know. But, I already have someone I really like. Let’s just stay as a friend like before. Good night!” She said sincerely and disappeared afterward.
“Alright, I will that in my mind.” He murmured to himself and returned back to his room.
Inside his room, Joey sat on the bed in a lotus position.
“Sister Ai Long, what exactly happens after I lose my consciousness? Do you know?” Joey asked in his mind.
“Boy, I know. There is something evil inside your body.” Ai Long replied in a casual tone.
“What!” He exclaimed and felt an uncomfortable feeling all over his body.
“Listen, Boy, don’t worry too much. That dark ball is the soul residual of one of the previous owners of the heavenly Corruption Pagoda. Unfortunately, he failed the 3rd-floor test and turned into a corruption beast. Then, he started wreaking havoc everywhere he passed by. Finally, he met an old man and was killed by him. But an infinitesimally small amount of his residual soul managed to enter inside the pagoda. ” Ai Long told him.
