Wen Shuai is the Earth Deity Law Master, also known as the Supreme Commander, and he holds the title of the highest Marshal in the Earth Deity Technique. He possesses a golden medal that grants him access to the Heavenly Gate, allowing him to traverse freely across the heavens with eight words of authority.
His origin story is linked to plagues, making him a go-to figure for curing diseases and managing households. Wen Shuai is also referred to as the Purple-Haired Demon King, a title that signifies his bravery. His origin tale involves a conflict with Tian Peng, which further establishes his role in battling evil and chaos.
As the Earth Deity Marshal, he resides in Dongyue Palace, the closest realm to the mortal world, enabling him to respond swiftly to prayers. His effectiveness in law and magic is well-regarded, and he has a broad base of followers who widely believe in him. Consequently, Wen Shuai's teachings have spread far and wide, with families practicing at least a few of his methods. Even those without extensive knowledge of his laws often possess several of his talismans.
Dao Xing exists within Fa Jing. Ordinary cultivators are no match for him. That old rascal indeed has some skills!
The Black Cripple shook his head and said, "He has set up a Five Coffin Lotus Formation within this shop Fang Yuan. I haven't even seen his face. In fact, I don't even know who he is. Yet he has already made it clear through his actions: if we don't leave now, death awaits us!"
"Five Coffin Lotus Formation?" Zuo Ci chuckled and remarked, "That's quite an impressive move! Did you steal someone's wife or sleep with that old hag's daughter?"
Coffins are not only used for burying ancestors in folk traditions; they also symbolize promotion and wealth. Some Fang Shi even use coffins to set up formations for suppressing evil or guarding tombs. Notable formations include the Nine Dragons Coffin Raising Formation and the Five Coffin Lotus Formation.
The Five Coffin Lotus Formation must be set up. The Shaman needs to prepare five adult men with great life fortunes. Then, they must be brutally killed. Their blood should be drained and smeared on the inside and outside of the coffin boards. This creates a large red coffin for the purpose of burying the dead. Ordinary coffins are black or dark red, but only the large red coffins used for burying those who died violently can easily attract malevolent energy.
Next, these five bright red coffins should be arranged in a lotus shape according to the Five Elements, which will suppress the Sha Qi in the area. The Five Coffin Lotus Formation was originally created by folk Yin-Yang masters to suppress the drought demon that could not be destroyed. However, it has been misused by some scoundrels and turned into a method for raising corpses!
The Black Cripple said with a face full of reluctance, "I don’t even know where that bastard found five corpses. The Sha Qi is heavy; just two days in, and my shop has already started to be eroded by it. You high-ranking Daoists aren’t afraid, but some of my old friends with shallow cultivation are scared that they might be turned into zombies by that so-called Old Ancestor and have moved out. As for me, I feel like I’m not myself every day!"
"Raising corpses with malevolent energy?" Zuo Ci's eyes lit up. He had been cultivating the Seven Fiendish Nightmares and was missing this so-called Sha Qi. Thinking of this, Zuo Ci smiled and said, "I’ll take on this task!"
The Black Cripple's eyes brightened as he replied, "Are you serious? You name your price! As long as it’s not dragon liver or phoenix marrow, I can get it for you! From now on, the property rights of this shop will belong to me!" Zuo Ci laughed.
"Cao Juan Dao Ren, you’re being unreasonable!" The Black Cripple said with an unhappy expression, "The wolves in the West eat people, and the tigers in the East do too. We’ve known each other for so many years; can’t we show a little bit of kindness? Have you ever seen me do charity?"
Zuo Ci glanced at him, then spat out a piece of chicken bone, saying, "Who told you I am the Bodhisattva Heart? If the shop changes hands and the new owner wants to kill you, just based on today's meal, I will ensure you have a proper burial!"
The Black Cripple twitched.
"Is there no other solution?" he asked, still unwilling to give up.
"You think I don't know?" Zuo Ci laughed. "Your shop has had its feng shui altered; it has become a gathering place for Yin energy. This is to nourish your Ben Ming Shan Jing. That’s why it’s suitable for us practitioners of Evil Practices to reside here."
"Over the years, I owe you a favor. My cultivation has progressed so quickly because of it. I can help you out for free once. Of course, if I can't kill the opponent, I won't protect you again. You’ll have to figure it out yourself!"
The Black Cripple sighed in resignation. "I can transfer the property rights to you, but I have one condition: I must still be here. Otherwise, even if it means death, I cannot agree!"
"Deal!" Zuo Ci replied readily.
Now it was the Black Cripple's turn to feel suspicious. He began to doubt Zuo Ci's intentions.
Zuo Ci's initial goal was to take over this Yin Yang Building and its connections!
Damn it. To avoid working in a factory tightening screws, he had practiced the Earth Deity Technique and cultivated diligently. In the end, he ended up as someone else's Niu Ma!
The Black Cripple felt a wave of sadness wash over him as he thought about it.
"Boss, can we make our move now?" he said irritably.
"Little Black, we’re all family here."
"Who cares about being a boss or not? You're just being overly formal."
Zuo Ci patted Black Cripple on the shoulder and said, "From now on, I’ll be your big brother!"
What the hell!
This is outrageous!
I’m almost fifty!
And now I have to recognize this young punk as my big brother?
Damn it, I—I—I can’t take it anymore!
Black Cripple forced a smile that looked worse than crying.
He bitterly said, "Big brother!"
"Alright then!"
Zuo Ci stood up and began to use his Ghost Eye to explore the Feng Shui of the place.
After a moment, he discovered an even denser Sha Qi in the reception area, almost solidifying.
Black Cripple followed closely behind Zuo Ci and was taken aback when he saw Zuo Ci sitting confidently in his own spot. His eyes nearly popped out.
Is this a death trap? Black Cripple exclaimed in shock.
You're not too foolish after all!
Zuo Ci squinted and smiled, saying, "Those people never intended to let you live. After all, if a rising power wants to establish itself in a foreign place, they must kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"
Boss, are you saying I'm the chicken? Black Cripple immediately became unhappy.
Kind of! Zuo Ci replied casually.
Those bastards! Black Cripple was furious.
Alright, watch me break the formation!
Zuo Ci sneered and took off his shirt.
The pale skin began to gradually turn pitch black. Flesh twisted and emitted a gurgling sound. Sinister faces started to protrude from beneath Zuo Ci's skin, writhing in agony and howling in pain. Hollow, crimson pupils revealed a look of fear.
Zuo Ci sought to harness the Sha Qi gathered by the Five Coffin Lotus Formation, aiming to merge these Yanfu Tongshen with his own body. At that moment, he would not only be impervious to all methods but would also have his magical resistance maximized. As a Left-Handed Sorcerer, he could even manipulate Flesh!
Zuo Ci opened his mouth, inhaling the Black Malevolence into his body. The faces on his form twisted even more grotesquely, their wails growing louder. One face seemed on the verge of breaking through Zuo Ci's flesh, but it fell just short, forcibly drawn back into him by the Sha Qi he summoned.
At that moment, centered around the shop, five figures from Wu Fang stood guard in the suburbs. Each had two young men clad in yellow robes protecting a large red coffin partially buried in the ground. They remained oblivious to the fact that the surface of the coffin, once vibrant red, was slowly dimming.
