"It's not the right time yet, let's let it go for a while. After all, we can't leave Jinyao Peak Base Camp easily."
Lin Shan and Brother Ji had a rough understanding of what had happened in the past few years, and decided to collect outside intelligence and wait and see what happens. He still had a lot to do when he came back this time.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you that Lin Fan came here some time ago!"
Brother Chicken flapped his wings and suddenly mentioned this.
"Lin Fan?"
Lin Shan suddenly became energetic and quickly asked him where Lin Fan was now.
"I don't know. He said that he went all the way north and didn't find you at the Xun Gu Sect of Lu State. Then he came to the Kun Sect of Chu State to have a look at me. Suddenly something happened on the way and he came down the mountain. He said he would come back after finishing the matter."
Brother Ji also sighed.
If Lin Fan were still there, its Kun Sect would not be stretched thin. Unfortunately, that guy was also a wandering cloud crane. He came very suddenly and left even more suddenly, as unpredictable as a gust of wind.
Lin Shan nodded and didn't care about it anymore.
Thinking about it, the guy probably discovered something again, so he didn't care and left in a hurry, so he could only meet again when he had time in the future.
Jin Yaofeng is very lively during this time.
Because three new demonic golden elixir masters have joined, plus a group of disciples, the Kun sect's strength has been greatly enriched.
Lin Shan unlocked the mana restrictions on the three of them, but before they could fully trust them, necessary measures still had to be put in place.
Brother Ji used his old skill again - "Demon God Contract"!
Because ordinary control methods are difficult to work on the golden elixir stage, and those that are too vicious will arouse resistance, so they can only be bound in the form of a contract.
They also signed a Jiazi service contract first, and then it was up to them to leave or stay as they pleased. In this way, Kejizi, Xiyin Cave Master, and Taoist Shenyu could barely accept it.
In addition, under the supervision of the little fox girl and the three evil spirit brothers, the demon dog king Remnant began to train an army of demon dogs that collected money. At the same time, he began to introduce and acquire cubs from the outside world and use the blood pool to cultivate them.
Lin Shan himself first refined the new evil spirit to "suppress the evil spirit".
This mass of evil spirit is the highest quality among all the evil spirits he currently has. It is very laborious to refine, and sometimes it even needs to be calcined with real fire!
In the later stage of the golden elixir, he increasingly felt that the ghostly ghost fire that he had snatched from Protector Qiu's hands was not enough. Even if his magic power was strong, he could not increase its power.
If you don't change to a real fire when you reach the Nascent Soul stage, it will be completely useless against enemies of the same level.
At the same time, he ordered Li Yuanjie to collect materials and prepare for something he had been dreaming about for a long time.
"Acquired spirit body"!
The spirit body is the representative of the talent of human monks. The innate spirit body cannot be controlled by oneself, but the acquired spirit body is not bad either.
After receiving the "Secret Technique of Opening Spirits" from Young Master Jiuyou, he has been studying the details repeatedly. Now that he has returned to Kun Cult, he feels that the time is ripe and it is time to complete it as soon as possible.
Of course, if you want to be on the safe side, it would be most appropriate to go back to Lu State to find the ancient religion.
But now the Kun Sect really can't leave, so they can only make do here for a while.
Moreover, there are also mountain gates and subordinates here, which can come in handy whether collecting materials or arranging ceremonies.
This time he wanted to take advantage of this gap and take a break from his busy schedule to complete it as soon as possible.
The "acquired spirit body" was learned from Ancestor Honglian, and it requires the following steps to be broken down in total:
Bloodline purification, altar drawings, spiritual opening spells, and auxiliary formations.
The step of purifying the bloodline has already been achieved. The next step is to build the altar according to the drawings and arrange the auxiliary array.
There's not much of a problem with the materials.
He himself has a lot of wealth, and the black market in the world of demonic cultivation is diverse. As long as he is willing to pay, he can always buy it back.
The arrangement of the formation was handed over to Taoist Shen Yu, the formation master. After the arrangement was completed, Ling Xiaoxin, the master of Xuxing Pan, checked it to make sure there were no flaws.
The next step is to choose an auspicious day.
This day is not chosen randomly, it is not even the same as an auspicious day in the ordinary sense.
In Yishu, choosing a good day requires the use of a spell called "auspicious selection".
Regardless of Bagua, Taiyi, Liuren, Qimen Dunjia, Qinxing, Congchen, Jianchu, Kanyu, Fengjiao, astrology, Guxu, Five Elements, Deer Ming, Six Days, Seven Points, etc., they are all categories of auspicious selection techniques. One of them.
If the ceremony Lin Shan needs to hold this time is related to the stars, so-called "astrology" will be used.
If this ceremony is related to the Five Elements, then the auspicious technique must be the "Five Elements Technique".
And his ultimate goal is to achieve the wind spirit body, so the best choice for auspicious techniques is the "Wind Angle Technique"!
The so-called "Wind Angle" auspicious technique is based on simple numbers and predicts good or bad luck for people based on wind direction, wind force, wind speed, wind color, wind time and other celestial phenomena.
Theoretically, wind is the product of yin and yang, and is closely related to the five elements. The things involved need to be judged by professional scholars.
In order to seek stability, Lin Shan certainly didn't want his spiritual opening ceremony to fail, so he naturally had to choose a good day.
So he made a special trip to spend a lot of money to find a famous Feng Shui master in the cultivation world of Chu State, and calculated a suitable day for himself in the near future.
September 23rd.
At this time, the Libra star is in orbit, and the wind signs are coming in full force, which is in harmony with myself. Everything goes smoothly and everything is ready.
On this day, the whole mountain of Jinyao Peak was heavily guarded.
With everything in place, Lin Shan stepped onto the altar step by step.
The weather suddenly turned gloomy, with dark clouds as thick as ink.
"Lelelelele~~~"
The strong wind swept across, making the twelve large flags in the surroundings rustle, moving from west to east, bringing with it a bit of autumn coolness.
Brother Ji lay on Luan Chun's shoulder, both of them watching nervously.
Behind him were the little fox girl, Ke Jizi, Xiyin Cave Master, Sheyu Taoist, etc. Although they didn't know what Lin Shan was going to do, they all guessed that it must be an extraordinary ceremony.
Otherwise, at such a critical moment in the outside world, there must be deep meaning in seizing the time to hold it so carefully.
Lin Shan stood on the stage, turned around, held a sword in one hand, and made seals with his hands.
"Report——"
At this solemn moment, an urgent report suddenly came from below, and Li Yuanjie hurried up to report before he started.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"Reporting to the leader, hundreds of people have come down from the mountain. They are the people of Yuan Shuiyao Peak, including three Jindan masters and the remaining disciples from all walks of life. Please take shelter!"
"People from Shuiyao Peak?"
Lin Shan looked at Luan Chun aside, who nodded and told him that among Jiu Yao, he was the only one who had a good relationship with Shui Yao Feng. This time Shui Yaofeng came to seek refuge, without even thinking about it, he must be homeless.
Not long after this, Shuiyao Peak also fell!
After receiving the instruction, Luan Chun went down to receive him personally, and temporarily led him to rest halfway up the mountain. After the opening ceremony, the leader would come out to meet him.
"If there is anything else, tell me now!"
Lin Shan guessed that it was still early and there was still time, so he let Li Yuanjie finish what he said.
"Since the defeat of the alliance, the Immortal Castle and the Wild Bear Gang divided their forces and advanced towards the Jiuyao Peaks. Master Linli and Taoist Cangxuan tried to summon resistance again, but there were very few responders."
"Each peak established its own position, but was defeated one by one. It is understood that only Ri Yao Peak, Yue Yao Peak and Jin Yao Peak are left. Most of the remaining peaks retreated to the Sun and Moon Peaks and are making final resistance!"
"The Immortal Castle and the Wild Bear Gang have already arrived at the foot of the mountain and have been attacking the second peak for several days. All parties suffered heavy casualties, but the outside world generally estimates that they cannot hold on!"
Li Yuanjie also had a heavy expression when he said this, and there was even something in his words that secretly reminded the leader, shouldn't we make plans in advance?
Do you always leave a way out?
Once others abandon their lost land and run away, they are truly homeless and become lonely ghosts.
But no matter how desperate they are, they can withdraw from the Xun Gu Sect. There is still a way out, so it is still not too late to make plans in advance.
The reason why the Immortal Castle and the Wild Bear Gang did not deal with Jin Yao Peak was because they were chasing the remnant soldiers all the way. They did not want the manpower of the gathering organizations at Ri Yao Peak and Yue Yao Peak to grow day by day, so they simply did not give them a chance to breathe, and chewed the hard bones first, and then fought. Set the course!
Jin Yaofeng will be isolated and helpless when the time comes, and he will be in the bag sooner or later, so there is no rush at all.
Other native monks in Jiuyao also generally distrusted the Kun religion, so except for a few who left for other places, most of them went to Ri Yao Peak and Yue Yao Peak, after all, in terms of familiarity and relationships.
Only people from Shuiyao Peak came, probably because of Luan Chun's friendship.
"Okay, I understand, go down."
Lin Shan did not express his position. After listening, he closed his eyes again and began to recite the incantation to maintain the ritual.
Li Yuanjie took the order and went back to collect information.
The strong wind in the sky is getting stronger and stronger, and the twelve flagpoles are still standing. They are strong enough in terms of material and formation, but the sandy leaves lifted up gradually obscure the view.
"Light the fire!"
A deep voice came from the wind and sand.
Kejizi had already prepared the real fire in his hand. He raised his finger to light the forty-nine oil lamps in the distance, igniting a dark green flame.
The lamp oil here is all specially made. It has been prepared by Master Xiyin Cave, the master of pharmacy, and is enough to withstand the strong wind and burn for several months.
"Open the formation!"
Lin Shan's voice sounded distant, as if it came from ancient times.
Taoist She Yu quickly ordered his apprentices to prepare, and each of them placed the special formation plates in their hands in the formation base holes on the outside.
There are a total of seventy-two bricks, which are embedded in the array plate and fit perfectly.
For a moment, the light green light flickered, echoing the forty-nine oil lamps, and the green silk threads were connected in parallel to form an intricate network.
This big net is between reality and illusion. It is swaying in the wind and floating here and there with the flames. Those who look at it are frightened for fear of being blown away.
"Pay tribute!"
Following the order from inside the altar, the disciples of the Kun Sect outside had been waiting for a long time and filed in under the guidance of the master of Xiyin Cave.
Each of them held in their hands sheep heads, pig hearts, foie gras, various spiritual fruits, fine wines, incense sticks of different colors, silk and satin, spiritual gold and spiritual iron.
Placed in different locations, there are a total of one hundred and eight altars.
"Please God!"
A low shout came, and all the disciples retreated in unison.
A door to the Nine Nethers rises from behind the altar. There are only three door frames, and the remaining half of the door and threshold are underground. There is a terrifying howl from inside!
Countless gray claws stretched out from the door.
Some grabbed the bloody food directly, some fought for the silk and satin, some snatched gold and silver jewelry, and some even cut off other claws to get the trophies.
Amidst the dancing of the demons, a smell of blood spread out, and there was also the cold sound of chewing, which combined with the frantic roar of the demonic sound, frightened the disciples so much that they turned pale!
Fortunately, there was no commotion at the scene, because their leader was still in the center, and the three Jindan masters on the periphery were holding the formation, so nothing would happen.
Lin Shan muttered something, and he vaguely felt that he had opened a portal. In the distant underground void, a netherworld full of will-o'-the-wisps was slowly opening its arms to him.
Balls of netherworld energy emerged from around the altar, rushing into his body, transforming him, and giving him a chance to evolve!
Lin Shan adheres to the Qingming Festival on the spiritual platform, seals all pores in his body, and cuts off the interaction with the spiritual energy from the outside world.
He could feel that if he inhaled these ghostly energies, it would most likely damage his legal body and transform him into a feminine and nondescript form.
At the beginning, the Nine Nether Sect gathered the wisdom of so many generations in order to transform it into the Nine Nether Body, Netherworld Body, Xuanyin Body, Xuanming Body, etc. acquired spiritual bodies that fit the sect's skills.
But Lin Shan's innate bloodline is wind bloodline, and even if he undergoes transformation, he cannot transform into those spirit bodies. Each spirit body has special talent requirements, otherwise the spirit body would have been ruined by the day after tomorrow!
If he absorbs too much Netherworld air now, it will pollute himself and destroy his foundation by then!
Therefore, he rejected all the gifts from Jiuyou, not daring to include any of them. The ghosts and gods didn't care at all, and after plundering the tributes, they left hastily.
And the one hundred and eight gates to the Nine Netherworlds are always open.
These portals are the key. With the help of the dark wind of the Nine Netherlands, you can exercise your blood, stimulate the potential in your body, open the heavenly door to the spirit body, and activate your own magical powers!
In an instant, the cold wind filled the body, and the pain penetrated the bone marrow.
He gritted his teeth and persisted, looking inside himself, feeling the changes in his bloodline, the aura given by the mysterious ritual, and the oil lamps around him glowing with sparks.
"Bo~"
With a slight burst, it turned into stars and floated into his body. He only felt warm all over, and was not so cold after being blown by the cold wind.
“Boobobobo~~~”
Sparks exploded, continuing to help his bloodline transform.
This ceremony requires forty-nine oil lamps to burn for seventy-seven forty-nine days, until he completes his spiritual enlightenment!
Sun Peak.
"Kill! Don't stop! Rush in. The first one to put the battle flag in the center of the opponent's formation will be rewarded with 100,000 spiritual stones and the title of elder. Rush!"
Rows of demon disciples fell down like wheat, but more people rushed up from behind.
These are cannon fodder pulled by the Wild Bear Gang from all over the world. In the world of demonic cultivation, such low-level casual cultivators are available in as many quantities as they are worthless!
In comparison, the charging Warcraft Death Squadron behind them was much more precious than them all.
And the real elites of the Wild Bear Gang are waiting at the end, ready to go.
On the cart, the Xiongshan people looked into the distance and observed the battle situation without saying a word.
A minion ran up from behind and handed a letter to the car.
The leader of Wu Dao Sect took it on his behalf, opened the letter and read it once, then passed it around to read in turn, and finally handed it to the Xiongshan people.
"The progress at Xiuxian Castle is very fast. I'm afraid they are ahead of us. Should we start the plan in advance?" (End of Chapter)
