Chapter 464: Pearls and Round Jade
Summer is entering with the chirping of cicadas.
Northern wild geese know autumn.
Shanyang County.
In the courtyard arranged by Liu Mansion.
The leaves of the sycamore tree have fallen one layer after another. The autumn wind swept through and the leaves fell. In this bleak transition between summer and autumn, Shen Ping sat cross-legged on the stone platform like an old monk in meditation, unmoving, letting the fallen leaves fall on his body.
Until the sun rises.
The solid vitality on his body slowly dissipated like mist.
Open your eyes.
A rising inner breath could not help but spit out from the mouth, and then the true spirit entered the body, surrounding the Tao bone to check the lines, and saw that there were more than 300 circles of lines, like artistic carvings gathered on the surface of the Tao bone.
"Since I started practicing Taoism, I have practiced Taoism for more than 370 years in one and a half years. This speed of cultivation is not bad."
If it were those Taoist geniuses with strong Taoist lineage who could achieve such speed, It would definitely shock the whole world, but Shen Ping behaved very calmly and had many advantages and blessings, which was nothing in his eyes.
Putting his fingers together, as the vitality and mana surged, his fingertips quickly sketched a fixed character in the air, and the surrounding air suddenly solidified.
“Yes, I can finally cast the Immobilizing Spell easily.”
“And under my Taoist practice, this Immobilizing Spell is not weak. No demons or monsters can break free."
There was a hint of satisfaction in Shen Ping's eyes. Although the Immobilization Curse was not a very profound spell, it was very practical. Many Taoist practitioners would use this method when fighting against the enemy. Some wandering Taoists even used it. Think of it as a special skill.
Then he took out two talismans from his arms, shaped them into the shape of paper cranes, and waved his sleeves to inject the vitality into his body. The paper cranes suddenly became vivid and lifelike.
This is a Taoist communication method using paper cranes to send messages, but it is relatively low-level and can easily be destroyed halfway. The ones that can really quickly send messages are Fu Jian Shuan Shu, or even Immortal Sword Shuan Shu. It is said that there is land Immortals can send books thousands of miles away with just a wooden sword.
He can now make talisman swords, but as soon as the distance is far away, the magic power attached to it will disappear. Only a real person with five hundred years of Taoism can use the vitality in his body to keep the magic power.
“The strongest person in Changling Taoist Temple is the real person.”
"If I practice for more than four months, I will be able to catch up with the cultivation of all the ancestors."
Shaked his head.
He stood up slowly.
There are so many Taoist temples in the world, but Taoist temples like Changling Temple are very small. If the ancestors of the past generations were not real Taoists, even the small Shanyang County would not offer incense to them.
"Senior brother, Uncle Lingwu is here."
Just heard the sound.
Shen Ping sensed Uncle Lingwu coming from the entrance of the courtyard, and he quickly went up to meet him.
Taoist Priest Lingwu was carrying a wooden sword on his back, and his expression was a little solemn.
"Disciple Lingzhen has met my uncle."
The salute is completed.
Taoist Master Lingwu said, "Lingzhen, you have been in Shanyang for more than four months. You have done well in the errands sent by your senior brother. Even the ancestor praised you."
Shen Ping said hurriedly : "This is a disciple's duty."
Taoist Master Lingwu nodded and continued: "I came here mainly for Xiaolianzi Mountain. There is news from Shanyang City God. "In recent days, the yin energy around Xiaolianzi Mountain has been abnormal, and business trips have frequently encountered accidents. You must have heard about this."
Xiaolianzi Mountain was where Shen Ping first arrived. Barren Mountain, this mountain is not high, but it is very wide, half the size of Daliang Mountain. In addition, every summer and autumn, business travelers will pass by this mountain. As time goes by, business travelers will invest in the establishment of mountain temples to gather together. Incense has given Xiaolianzi Mountain a mountain god.
Of course he had heard about what happened to the business travelers recently, but Xiaolianzi Mountain did not fall under the jurisdiction of Changling Taoist Temple, but Lingyin Temple, so he did not go to check too much.
Now listen to my uncle talk about it.
He couldn't help but wonder: "Uncle Master, shouldn't Lingyin Temple send someone to do this?"
Uncle Lingwu sighed, "Lingyin Temple also sends people Just to be on the safe side, I informed Changling Taoist Temple."
Shen Ping suddenly realized that Lingyin Temple wanted Changling Taoist Temple to take the lead.
"Okay, get ready and come with me."
"In Shanyang County, I will let the City God Yinsi take care of it. Your two junior sisters and junior brothers will stay in Shanyang County."
"Yes, uncle."
Simple Packed the baggage.
He then followed Uncle Lingwu to the mountain temple in Xiaolianzi Mountain.
There is only one abandoned ancient temple in the entire mountain range. However, compared to the last time Shenping came, this mountain temple is even more dilapidated. The roof is covered with weeds and the pillars inside the temple have collapsed, but the statue of the mountain god is still there. There was no damage at all, and it looked somewhat majestic.
Shen Ping knew that this mountain god statue was not simple and had the blessing of the mountain god.
Boom Kaka~
As soon as we stepped into the mountain temple, the sky became gloomy, and thunder rolled in an instant.
"Where is the mountain god here?"
Uncle Lingwu shouted in a low voice, with a penetrating force in his voice.
I shouted several times but got no response.
"Uncle Master."
"Will the mountain god also listen to the instructions of our Changling Taoist Temple?"
Shen Ping asked.
Uncle Lingwu smiled and said: "Most of the mountain gods, river gods, and river dragon gods are entrusted by the imperial court, and a small number of them are naturally condensed by absorbing the people's incense and wishes, but no matter what they are, All these divine positions are born in response to the energy of the dragon veins of heaven and earth. The path cultivated by my Dao lineage must be superior to the energy of the dragon veins. Therefore, anyone who faces my Dao lineage with any divine position will be somewhat disrespectful."
"The mountain god of Xiaolianzi Mountain is a natural aggregation, his Taoism is not high, and he is within the scope of Lingyin Temple, so he should obey his orders."
Speaking of this.
He said with a rather proud tone: "Besides, there is a magical technique in my Dao channel, which is the technique of restraining gods. This technique can arrest any god."
Shen Pingsi He nodded with understanding. The so-called spirit-binding technique is actually similar to the principle of the immobilization spell. However, if you want to use this kind of magical power, you must at least be at the level of a true king. His uncle is obviously not qualified. The person from Xiaolianzi Mountain It's normal for the mountain god to ignore you.
“Where is the mountain god?!”
shouted again.
Still no response.
Lingwu frowned, "It seems that something happened to the mountain god here."
"Uncle Master, what should we do?"
"Without the mountain god's help, , it will be more difficult to find out the changes in Yin Qi in detail. In this case, Lingzhen, you first make some five-element spells. Let’s rest in the temple tonight and wait for the people from Lingyin Temple to come and discuss it later.”
Didn't wait a moment.
There were bursts of footsteps outside the temple, and soon five people came in from the door. The leader was wearing a special Taoist robe from Lingyin Temple, with a long jade sword tied behind his back and hanging at his waist. Wearing a jade pendant, he looks like an immortal.
"Taoist Master Yinzhu, I didn't expect that Lingyin Temple would send you here this time."
Lingwu stepped forward quickly and said with enthusiasm.
Taoist Master Yinzhu said calmly: "Now that the temple is busy, many brothers and sisters couldn't get away, so they asked me to come over."
With that said, he turned back to a female Taoist priest with a pretty and pleasant face and said, "Yin Shu, why don't you come over and pay homage to Master Lingwu from Changling Temple."
Yin Shu held the same jade sword. , and bowed towards Lingwu.
As for the other three behind him, Yin Zhu briefly introduced them.
"Taoist Master Yinzhu, this is Lingzhen, the new disciple of our Changling Temple. He is quite talented in spells. He has mastered the Immobilizing Spell within one year of practicing Taoism." Lingwu introduced at the same time. , let Shen Ping salute.
Taoist priest Yinzhu looked at Shen Ping in surprise. He was able to master the Immobilizing Spell in just one year. Such talent was truly outstanding.
“There are such outstanding disciples of Changling Temple, and there will be successors.”
“It is not as good as Lingyin Temple. It is said that the year before last, your disciple of Lingyin Temple only practiced for two years. It takes ten years to achieve a hundred years of Taoism?”
The two Taoist priests inquired about each other humbly.
Then we talked about Xiaolianzi Mountain.
"Where is the mountain god here?"
Yinzhu shouted.
Chi.
As soon as the voice fell, the eyes of the ancient temple mountain god statue moved, and then a middle-aged man in robes appeared in the temple, "The little god has met all the Taoist priests."
< br>Lingwu looked ugly. He shouted several times before, but the mountain god didn't respond. Now, when Lingyin Temple's Yinzhu Taoist priest shouted, the other party immediately appeared. It was obvious that he and Changling Taoist Temple were not put there. In eyes.
"Mountain God, let me ask you, what is the reason why business travelers in Xiaolianzi Mountain have been attacked frequently in the past?"
Yin Zhu said in an arrogant voice.
How can the Xiaolianzi Mountain God have the wanton power that he used to deal with Xi Lengyan? His condensed Yin body posture was extremely low, "In reply to the Taoist priest, every time at the turn of summer and autumn, Xiaolianzi There are bandits in the mountain city, and those business travelers should be attacked by bandits. "
"Humph, that's ridiculous."
"I'm deaf and blind, if it's really bandits. , Why can’t those businessmen find the body? The mountain is full of yin and evil spirits. Don’t tell me, you, the mountain god, can’t notice it?”
Yin Zhu said coldly.
The rest of the Taoist priests stared at the mountain god.
The mountain god looked troubled, and finally sighed helplessly, "Oh, you Taoist priests don't know something. There is a ferocious tiger demon in the mountain of Xiaoshen. It is powerful and does evil in Xiaolianzi Mountain, causing harm to the past. The little god also tried to stop the business traveler, but due to his shallow conduct, he was almost swallowed up. Even the mountain temple was ruined. "
Yinzhu asked unmoved, "Since then. So, why don’t you ask the nearby mountain people in their dreams to find me, Lingyin Temple, to slay the demon?” …”
He hesitated and said nothing.
Yinzhu and Lingwu understood its meaning. Most mountain gods, river gods and other gods will absorb the yin and yang qi of heaven and earth and the qi of the five elements. Although they grow slowly, they accumulate over time. , but very huge.
This is a great temptation for some Taoists with bad conduct and who like to take advantage of opportunities.
"Hmph, my Lingyin Temple is one of the thirty-two branches of the world. How can I covet your accumulation and tell the tiger monster where it is?"
"Yes, the little god will lead the way personally."
Xiaolianzi Mountain God immediately led a group of Taoists to the depths of the mountain.
Shen Ping and Lingwu walked behind.
"Uncle Master, be careful, there is something wrong with this mountain god."
When the mountain god attacked Xi Lengyan, he had the help of the wolf demon, and its power was definitely comparable to that of three hundred years ago For Taoists who practice Taoism, even if the tiger demon is powerful, it is impossible for them to dominate the mountain and become king.
Ling Wu nodded.
Come to the depths of the mountain forest.
The sky has long been dark, the rain is falling, and the lightning flashes from time to time give the mountain forest a strange feeling.
Taoist Master Yinzhu, who was walking at the front, waved his hand, and several spells floated, and light soon appeared on them, dispelling the darkness.
After two cups of tea.
Everyone stood in front of a deep cave.
"The tiger demon is entrenched here."
The mountain god said.
The Taoist priest Yin Zhu flicked his fingers, and a floating spell quickly entered the cave, and soon there was an astonishing roar of a tiger.
His expression changed slightly, "This tiger demon may have the strength of nearly three hundred years of Taoism. Taoist Master Lingwu, you go in with me, and the others stay at the entrance of the cave to arrange the spell to trap the demon."< br>
Then he looked at the mountain god and said, "I hope the mountain god will stay here to help."
Xiaolianzi Mountain God hurriedly said: "The little god obeys the instructions of the Taoist Master."
Lingwu gave Shen Ping a look, which meant to run away if anything happened.
After the two Taoist priests entered the cave.
The only woman among the crowd, Yin Shu, immediately called the other Taoist priests to arrange spells.
Boom boom.
Soon.
There were sounds of fighting in the cave, and a large number of rolling stones fell from the mountain.
"Ah..."
At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the side. In the darkness, snake-like vines sprouted from the ground, and one of the Lingyin Taoist priests was struck by lightning. Wrapped up.
“Sister, help, help!”
Yinshu hurriedly activated the jade sword and struck it quickly on the vines. However, the jade sword was restrained by a black energy, and the next moment the Taoist priest was dragged away by the vines.
Boooooooh.
A large number of vines sprouted from the ground, dragging Yinshu and other Taoist priests one by one.
Shen Ping could easily save these Lingyin Temple disciples, but if he did so, his own strength would be exposed, so he struggled briefly and allowed the vines to drag him underground. .
He wanted to see what was causing trouble behind this.
The ground extends in all directions.
The vines were extremely fast, and it took only dozens of breaths to drag Shen Ping and others into an empty cave hall.
"Haha, you stinky Taoist priests are usually sanctimonious, but now I am going to let you taste the feeling of being sucked out of life!"
There is a huge tree stump directly in front of the cave hall. , black air surrounded the tree stump, and the black air condensed into the face of the mountain god.
At this moment, it swung its root vines to tear the Taoist priest's clothes to pieces, and then pierced into the Taoist priest's flesh and blood like a pipe, devouring the flesh, flesh and mana crazily.
However, Yin Shu was protected by magic spells, forming a protective shield around her body, struggling to support her. She glared at the middle-aged mountain god who slowly appeared, "You hateful mountain god, how dare you attack us from behind?" , when my uncle destroys the tiger demon, he will definitely destroy you."
Xiaolianzi Mountain God laughed, "Stop dreaming, your uncle will also die here, not only him, but also your souls. Hidden view will soon be destroyed."
While speaking.
A large number of roots completely absorbed the other three Taoist priests into mummies.
“Junior Brother!!”
Yin Shu was filled with grief.
Stab it.
However, the shield on her body gradually became unable to support itself under the attacks of roots. Her clothes were torn to pieces by the roots, and her fair skin was exposed to the air. Her round and round figure could not be concealed, and her legs were even more damaged. It was a very shameful posture being stretched apart by the root vines.
