In everyone's impression, the existence of mounts is almost universally liked by cultivators. After all, a majestic and powerful mount can not only make one look respectable when traveling, but can also scare some evil spirits.
It can be said that a mount is sometimes a manifestation of a person's own heritage.
However, it is extremely rare for a mount to be as powerful as an emperor. It seems that such a powerful being is already comparable to an emperor, so how can it be willing to become someone else's mount?
Of course, unless it is an incense beast that one party has devoted all its efforts to worship, but if there are so many huge incense resources, how many people are willing to smash them on an incense beast.
Therefore, there are mounts that are powerful enough to compete with those in the Emperor Realm, but they only exist in legends. Only those powerful beings who stand at the pinnacle occasionally have legends about their mounts left.
Huang Huai opened his mouth and said that he wanted to sacrifice an extremely powerful peerless demon as a mount, which made Ji Changnian subconsciously have the idea that no matter how powerful the mount was, it could not be as powerful as the Lord God.
But Ji Changnian soon realized that he had forgotten that Huang Huai seemed to be unable to judge with common sense.
It is extremely rare for others to worship gods and demons, and it is extremely rare to be able to invite a statue of gods and demons in the realm of gods. Just like their Ji family, it can be said that there are only a few who can truly worship the gods and demons in the realm of gods from the beginning. The vast majority The strong ones are strengthening themselves little by little to worship the gods and demons, so that they can break through to the realm of gods.
But Huang Huai has worshiped powerful gods and demons of the emperor level from the beginning, and there are more than one.
Thinking about it now, it seems that if the mount that Huang Huai wanted to sacrifice was too weak, it would be a little abnormal.
Ji Yang did not notice the change in Ji Changnian's expression at this moment, and said calmly: "Father, since Brother Huang said that the mount he wanted to sacrifice was very powerful, it must at least be a powerful god and demon that can rival the emperor."
Hearing this, Ji Changnian couldn't help but cough lightly to cover up his embarrassment. Seeing the serious look on Ji Yang's face, he felt ashamed in his heart. It was in vain that he had seen so many incredible things in Huang Huai, even worse than his own son.
Even Ji Lin nodded slightly, as if she agreed with Ji Yang.
Seeing this, Ji Changnian bowed his hands slightly towards Huang Huai and said, "It's my subordinate's lack of knowledge that made the palace master laugh."
Huang Huai chuckled and shook his head and said: "Master Ji, you don't have to be like this. The peerless monster I want to sacrifice is really powerful. I'm afraid I can't just help it channel spirits and become a saint."
While talking, Huang Huai said to Deng Mao and Cheng Yuanzhi: "Go and bring the statue."
Deng Mao and Cheng Yuanzhi were seen quickly walking over carrying a huge stone lion that was almost as tall as a person, and carefully lowered the huge stone lion.
Ji Yang opened his eyes and said curiously: "Brother Huang, if I read correctly, this should be a stone lion. Is this stone lion really that strong?"
Because lions, wolves, tigers, bears and other fierce beasts are so common, people will subconsciously have the feeling that these creatures are not enough compared to those above.
Ji Yang originally guessed what the powerful god and demon body Huang Huai wanted to sacrifice was, but he didn't expect it to be a lion.
Today, there are at least hundreds of golden lions and incense beasts in Tai'an Prefecture. This makes many people marvel at Huang Huai's profound knowledge and great skill. He casually produced so many incense beasts and secretly guessed that Huang Huai Do the masters behind them all worship lions as incense and sacred beasts?
Huang Huai glanced at everyone, chuckled, walked forward, reached out and patted the stone lion statue and said: "This god and demon's name is Jiuling Yuan Sheng, and he is an extremely powerful sacred figure from our sect. Mount.”
Huang Huai said: "This green lion has nine heads. It has immeasurable magical powers and boundless magic power. Even a casual emperor-level expert can swallow it in one gulp."
In fact, Huang Huai didn't need to say anything. At this moment, Ji Yang and others had already clearly seen that this stone lion actually had nine heads. It looked quite powerful at first glance. They were curious that this stone lion had so many heads. At that time, after listening to Huang Huai's words, everyone looked shocked.
Ji Yang opened his eyes wide and said with a look of astonishment on his face: "This... this Nine Spirits Yuansheng can actually swallow an emperor in one mouthful?"
Not only Ji Yang, but also Ji Changnian, Zhu Fang and others also looked horrified.
To them, the emperor-level existence was already the supreme power, but now Huang Huai actually told them that a mount could devour the emperor at will.
With a grunt, Ji Changnian swallowed subconsciously, thinking that just now he had questioned the power of the mount that Huang Huai wanted to sacrifice. Now when he looked at the nine-headed green lion statue, a look of awe could not help but flow out of his eyes.
Regardless of the reactions of several people, Huang Huai strode forward and walked to the mysterious case.
At this time, the five animal sacrifices have been prepared. In addition, there are also spiritual fruits, incense orbs and other sacrificial objects.
Looking at the nine green lions enshrined on it, Huang Huai took a deep breath.
Huang Huai didn't have high hopes for this peerless great demon to help him perform sacrifices and return as a spiritual saint. After all, his status was not low, let alone his strength. He was probably in his prime. Even if Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun, who is under his command, faces him, he may not be able to gain any advantage.
Unexpectedly, Tang Seng and his disciples met this person back then. Even with the protection of Sun Wukong and the other three, they were not easily manipulated by Jiuling Yuan Sheng.
It can be said that among the many monsters encountered by the master and disciples during their journey, there are really only a handful of people as powerful as Jiuling Yuan Sheng.
However, for the peerless great demon like Jiuling Yuan Sheng, Huang Huai could use the five-animal sacrifice method to sacrifice without worrying about creating an incarnation of the killing Bodhisattva like the sacrifice to Guanyin.
Standing still, Huang Huai took the five slaughtered animals, cut his fingertips at the same time, squeezed out a drop of his heart's blood, mixed it with the wish power orb, and soon made the psychic fluid.
Then I saw Huang Huai lighting incense candles and chanting inscriptions to worship the gods:
"Praise and respect the gods, the most holy and spiritual ones, with high virtues through the ages, worshiped for generations, powerful spirits, and great blessings... Nourishing the name of the Huang family in Huaihe, worshiping the gods sincerely, respecting the gods, presenting the five sacrifices piously, and showing their sincerity , the gods and all the spirits are silently sheltering, sincerely bowing their heads, and praising virtues and graces. The gods have spirits, come and enjoy them, Fu Wei! Enjoy!"
After the words fell, Huang Huai used a very fast pen to touch the nine brows and eighteen eyes of the nine-headed blue lion with a pen stained with psychic liquid.
A flash of light showed that there were faint traces of psychic fluid between the eyebrows of the nine-headed green lion statue and the eyebrows of the eighteen eyes, but there was nothing strange about the whole blue lion.
Seeing this situation, Huang Huai was not disappointed.
I didn’t have high hopes, so it was expected that the sacrifice to the spirit channel would fail. If the sacrifice to the spirit channel was successful in one go, Huang Huai felt that what kind of sacred thing should he worship, so he would directly worship a wave of Chinese gods and demons first. The emergence of a group of peerless monsters among them is enough for him to dominate this other world.
Ji Yang, Ji Changnian and others who saw this scene looked a little disappointed.
Ji Yang said with a bit of disappointment on his face: "I also want to see with my own eyes the form of the Nine Spirits Yuansheng that Brother Huang admires so much. I guess it must be a hundred times a thousand times stronger than my green lion." ."
Huang Huai chuckled when he heard this and said: "The Nine Spirits Yuansheng is the ancestor of all lions, and your little lion is this disciple's disciple. There is no comparison between the two."
Huang Huai sighed softly as he spoke: "It's a pity that the Nine Spirits Yuan Sheng is too powerful. It seems that he can't just sacrifice to the spirit."
At this moment, Ji Lin suddenly said: "Master, why don't you change the sacrifices and perform sacrifices more frequently? I don't know when I will be able to successfully channel spirits."
Huang Huai raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ji Lin in surprise.
Ji Lin thought for a while and said: "If it is a sacrifice to a fierce god, there is another possibility that the sacrifice will fail. Generally, the sacrifice is too poor, and the energy contained in it is not enough to make the gods and demons channel spirits. I I wonder if the success of the channeling would be increased if I replaced it with a stronger sacrifice?"
Huang Huai only felt that what Ji Lin said was quite reasonable, but he still looked at Ji Changnian, Zhu Fang, and Chen Hu.
After all, in comparison, Ji Changnian and Zhu Fang are well-informed, and their insights must be much broader than Ji Lin's.
Noticing Huang Huai's gaze, Ji Changnian and the other three looked at each other, and heard Ji Changnian slowly say: "Palace Master, what this girl Lin'er said is true, it's just that ordinary sacrifices are compared to five The possibility of increasing the number of sacrifices is not high, so when people offer sacrifices to powerful gods and demons, they usually follow the most orthodox way to offer sacrifices to them all year round, or they use the most extreme means to sacrifice blood to the gods and demons."
Huang Huai understood what Ji Changnian said.
The meaning is very simple, that is, Ji Lin's method is effective, but the effect is not great. The key is that the sacrifices offered must be strong enough. Otherwise, it is better to offer them honestly and don't think about taking any shortcuts.
Huang Huai suddenly smiled and said: "Master Ji, do you think that if we use a few powerful gods and demons in the realm of emperors as sacrifices, will the sacrifice be successful?"
Ji Changnian and the others couldn't help but have strange expressions on their faces when they heard this. They looked at Huang Huai as if they had heard something incredible.
Ji Changnian suppressed the turmoil in his heart, bowed to Huang Huai and said: "The master of the palace is joking, he is a powerful man at the level of an emperor. If he can really get five of them, he can use the method of five animal sacrifices to sacrifice the fierce god. If so, its effect will definitely far exceed that of the Heaven-Bearing Spirit-Gathering Incense, and the Palace Master, the Nine-Ling Yuan Sage, will definitely be able to channel spirits and manifest himself as a saint."
Zhu Fang said to Huang Huai: "It is too unbelievable to use the emperor as a sacrifice. Palace Master, please think twice."
Huang Huai laughed loudly and said: "I'm just talking. You don't think that I can really capture a few emperors to sacrifice to the Nine Spirits Yuansheng."
Hearing what Huang Huai said, everyone couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that Huang Huai would really have such thoughts.
Existences at the level of emperors are not easy to provoke. Even the weakest emperor is still a strong man who can suppress a country.
On the contrary, Ji Yang looked at the nine-headed green lion statue, then looked at Huang Huai and said in surprise: "I think Brother Huang can definitely do it..."
With a slap, Ji Changnian slapped Ji Yang directly on the head and said: "You bastard, even the master of the palace doesn't have such a big tone like you. I think you want to go to heaven!"
Ji Yang couldn't help but shrink his neck after being slapped.
Huang Huai waved his hand to Deng Mao and Cheng Yuanzhi to invite the statue of Jiuling Yuansheng down.
A group of people walked into the living room. After the guests and hosts took their seats, Huang Huai glanced at Ji Changnian and others and said, "Master Ji, is there anything going on in the mansion during the past few days when I am in seclusion?"
Ji Changnian shook his head slightly and said, "Thanks to the master of the palace, nothing major happened in the palace."
But when the words changed, Ji Changnian said: "But the master of Huayin Palace, which is adjacent to Tai'an Palace, sent an envoy to see the master!"
Huang Huai couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Adjacent to Tai'an Prefecture were Beiling Prefecture and Huayin Prefecture. Needless to say, Beiling Prefecture was the fiefdom of King Beiling, King of Dayanzong.
However, Huayin Mansion, like Tai'an Mansion, is dominated by local wealthy sects. The only difference is that Huayin Mansion belongs to the Huayin Sect alone. The Huayin Sect is the only one in the mansion, unlike Tai'an Mansion, which is generally dominated by the Ji family. The three families, Lieyang Sect and Iron Flag Sect, are in charge of one government.
It can even be said that in Huayin Mansion, except for a few small families and sects that are struggling to survive, there are no sects or families at all.
The huge Huayin Mansion is completely controlled by the Huayin Sect family, integrating the power of the whole government. It can be said that the strength is far from intrigues, and can be compared to the Tai'an Mansion, which has endless internal battles.
Even if Huang Huai now uses strong means to integrate the internal situation of Tai'an Mansion and take a large part of the local incense will power for his own use, but if you really want to talk about it, compared to completely controlling Huayin Mansion, Huayin Sect is still far behind.
When Huang Huai was in charge of Tai'an Mansion, he couldn't help but sigh when he learned about the situation in Huayin Mansion.
Glancing at Ji Changnian, Huang Huai asked doubtfully: "If I remember correctly, when I was in charge of Tai'an Mansion before, the Huayin Sect sent people to send congratulatory gifts. I wonder why they sent people here this time?"
Ji Changnian shook his head slightly and said: "My subordinates don't know either, but seeing that this envoy is the third elder, one of the nine elders of Huayin Sect, I'm afraid it's not a small matter."
Huang Huai nodded and said, "Where is the other person?"
Ji Changnian said hurriedly: "Because the Palace Master is practicing in seclusion, the subordinates dare not disturb the Palace Master, so they are temporarily placed in a separate courtyard in the city."
Huang Huai pondered for a moment, then chuckled and said: "Since the other party is officially visiting, no matter what the purpose is, we will talk about it after meeting him first."
Huang Huai said to Ji Changnian: "Please, Master Ji, please bring them to see me tomorrow!"
Ji Changnian bowed and said: "I accept your order."
In the evening, night slowly falls.
In other worlds, night is often the time when evil spirits are most rampant, so in most cities, whenever night comes, people will return home and close their doors to prevent being stared at by evil spirits outside. superior.
Therefore, whenever night comes, the city will seem quite cold and quiet. Except for a few powerful practitioners, it is rare to see anyone active outside.
However, Tai'an Fucheng is a bustling scene at night. Just looking at the crowds of people coming and going on the long street, it is no worse than during the day.
Among the crowd, several figures were walking around, looking at the life scenes of the people in Tai'an Prefecture under the night with great interest.
Chai Tong, who was dressed in a green shirt and had an elegant temperament, walked with a faint smile on his lips. Behind him, several disciples of the Huayin Sect were talking in a low voice.
A woman wearing a plain dress with long hair like a waterfall, tied up with only a red rope, followed Chai Tong lightly and said: "Uncle, the prosperity of Tai'an Prefecture looks worse than ours." The Huayin Mansion is not bad at all, it is not as deserted and deserted as we imagined, caused by evil spirits."
Hearing this, Chai Tu glanced at Cao Yun with a smile and said: "In the past, when night fell in Tai'an Fucheng, although the city was not sparsely populated, it was far from lively. But now, it has changed a lot. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, , I’m afraid and can’t believe that Tai’an Mansion can undergo such a big change.”
A disciple on the side could see that he was also highly regarded by Chai Tu. Hearing this, he said: "Master, I heard that the new lord of Tai'an Mansion is very unusual. He dares to act in front of him when he is the lord of a small town. The Prince of Beiling and his incarnation have been beheaded in front of countless people. It would be difficult for such a strong person to speak to him."
Cao Yun frowned slightly when she heard this, with a somewhat worried look on her face.
Chai You noticed the change in Cao Yun's expression, smiled slightly, glanced at the disciple and said, "Zhang Wenqian has never seen this person, so how can he judge his character?"
Zhang Wen said almost instinctively: "In the past two days, my disciples have been in the city to inquire about the news about the Huang Palace Master of Huanghuai. Many people say that the Huang Palace Master is extremely powerful. Even many small and large forces entrenched in the local area are... Being uprooted by him shows that he is definitely not someone to deal with."
While he was talking, a disciple who was traveling with him suddenly said in surprise: "Master, senior brother, senior sister Yun, look, is that the legendary golden lion, the incense beast?"
At this moment, several people also clearly noticed that many people in the originally noisy and lively crowd in front were looking at the golden lions jumping vertically and horizontally.
I saw a group of about ten majestic golden lions running and jumping between the buildings on both sides of the long street. The golden lions with golden light all over their bodies looked strong and burly, but they seemed extremely light when they moved around. It even landed silently, and it felt like ten rays of golden light whizzing by.
"What a powerful incense beast. It feels a bit more powerful than the incense beast enshrined in our sect."
A disciple looked at the golden lion that flew away with a gust of wind from beside him, his eyes filled with wonder.
Chai Tong still had a faint smile on his face. He was not angry at all because of his disciple's words. Instead, he nodded and said: "This incense beast is indeed a bit stronger than our Huayin Sect's."
Zhang Wen looked around and said with some curiosity: "It is said that every night, in Tai'an Prefecture, there will be incense beasts, golden lions and protector gods, yellow scarf warriors, patrolling the whole city, frightening the gods and evil spirits, and protecting them. People, if this golden lion is as powerful as the rumors say, we don’t know how powerful the protector the Yellow Turban Warrior is."
While he was talking, someone from the front suddenly shouted: "Everyone, please give way, don't block the way of the Yellow Turban Warriors."
Cao Yun smiled slightly and said to Zhang Wen: "Senior Brother Zhang Wen, isn't the Yellow Turban Warrior you were talking about coming?"
At this time, Zhang Wen and others all raised their heads and looked forward, and saw the people on the street making way for them to come out. Then they saw a group of six people who were ten feet tall, with bronze bodies and flying clouds on their feet. He was wearing boots and had a yellow ribbon tied around his waist. He was as powerful as a god, striding over more than ten feet in a step.
Chai Tu's eyes fell on these yellow scarf warriors, and his eyes couldn't help but shine with a bit of splendor.
As for Zhang Wen, Cao Yun and several Huayin Sect disciples, they waited until the figure of the Yellow Turban Warrior disappeared into the distance and then slowly withdrew their gaze, their eyes filled with wonder.
Cao Yun looked at Chai Tong and said: "Uncle, this yellow scarf warrior protector god gives people the feeling of being a god. This is not something ordinary forces can have. Who do you think this Huang Palace Master is? "
A flash of light flashed in Chai Tong's eyes and he said: "Didn't this Palace Master Huang himself say that he was born in a Taoist sect and respected the Heavenly Martial God of Xuantian Town in the North Bei as his ancestor, and his sects had many saints?"
Cao Yun frowned and said, "What kind of force is Xuanmen? Since such a force has so many holiness, why have you never heard of it?"
Chai Tu stretched out his hand and knocked on Cao Yun's forehead and said: "Girl, we are just living in a corner of the world. The world is vast. Even the Yan Dynasty is just a drop in the ocean. We are not even sure about the affairs of the Yan Dynasty. If you can know everything, how can you know the vast world."
Cao Yun said: "I'm just curious about what kind of existence the gods and demons can be that can give birth to emperors such as Guan Sheng Emperor, Qing Yuan Miao Dao Zhenjun, and the Bodhisattva of Killing Life."
Upon hearing this, Chai Tu laughed loudly and said, "If our goal can be achieved, Yun Yatou, you will know the origin of Palace Master Huang sooner or later."
Cao Yun raised her head and looked at Chai Tong and said, "But Master, if the other party has a good background, we may not be able to achieve the purpose of our trip so smoothly."
Chai Tong looked solemn and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, we come here with good intentions and just do our best to obey fate."
While speaking, Chai Tong put his hands behind his back and walked forward slowly, followed by Zhang Wen, Cao Yun and other disciples.
the next day
In a rather elegant courtyard in Fucheng, Tai'an Prefecture, Chai Tong was practicing self-cultivation when he heard a knock on the door.
Slowly opening his eyes, a bright light flashed in Chai Tu's eyes and he said softly: "Here he comes!"
When Zhang Wen opened the door and saw Ji Changnian standing at the door, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I have met the head of the Ji family!"
Ji Changnian nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am here. The master of my palace just came out of seclusion yesterday. Hearing that you are coming to visit, I have specially ordered you to come and invite me."
"Hahaha, Palace Master Huang really thinks highly of me. He even troubles Master Ji to come in person. I am missing out on meeting you from afar. Please forgive me!"
Accompanied by Chai Tong's hearty laughter, Chai Tong, an extraordinary person, strode over with a smile on his face, giving people a feeling of spring breeze blowing on his face.
Although Ji Changnian said that he had met the third elder of Huayin Sect several times, he was still amazed by his charm every time they met.
The third elder of the Huayin Sect was very kind to others, and his charming demeanor made people unconsciously fall in love with him as soon as they met him.
"Elder Chai was joking. The master of my palace ordered me to come and invite the elder. I don't know Elder Chai..."
Chai Tong smiled and said: "Zhang Wen, you stay here with a few junior brothers. Yun girl, you go with me to pay homage to Palace Master Huang."
Zhang Wen immediately accepted the order respectfully, and Cao Yun also bowed to Chai Tong and stood beside Chai Tong.
Regarding Cao Yun, Zhang Wen and other Huayin Sect disciples who followed Chai You, Ji Changnian had naturally collected information and was no stranger to them. He nodded slightly and said: "Elder Chai, Miss Cao, please come with me!"
Huang Huai's residence is located in a rather clean courtyard near the Tai'an City Lord's Palace.
When Chai Tong and Cao Yun came to this courtyard with Ji Changnian, although they already knew that this was Huang Huai's residence, Chai Tong still felt quite emotional.
As the head of the Huanghuai Mansion, he did not carry out large-scale construction, build a mansion or live in the city lord's mansion, but chose such a location. It is really quite low-key.
Passing through a group of pavilions and pavilions, in front of a main hall, he saw a figure slowly performing a set of boxing techniques. This set of boxing techniques seemed ordinary, but in fact they were obtained by Huang Huai from the Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques. To temper the body.
As if he sensed someone approaching, Huang Huai withdrew his fist skills and looked towards the person. He saw Ji Changnian walking towards him with a middle-aged man in green shirt and a woman.
Through the eyes of Erlang Xianshengzhenjun, Huang Huai could see at a glance that the middle-aged man in Qingshan who came with Ji Changnian contained terrifying power in his body. The feeling given to him was no better than when he saw the ancestors of the Ji family and Ancestor Lieyang and the others are inferior, even a little better.
When Huang Huai looked at Chai You and Cao Yun, they were also looking at Huang Huai, but in comparison, Chai You's gaze was more obvious.
With Chai Tong's strength and eyesight, he could tell Huang Huai's true strength at a glance. He was about 20 years old, and his strength was about the same as Cao Yun, roughly comparable to a strong person in the fourth realm.
Such a being may be considered a genius in the Yan Dynasty, but when looking at some big forces, it is not considered outstanding.
Even in Chai Tu's view, Huang Huai was far inferior to his previous expectations in every aspect. Although Huang Huai had a slightly different temperament, he could not come out with the big force he imagined. comparable to his disciples.
"It's strange. This guy doesn't look like the kind of kid from a big power who has been trained in all aspects since he was a child. Could it be that he got a chance and became a disciple of a powerful man?"
When Cao Yun saw Huang Huai, she was slightly startled at first, and then a trace of disappointment flashed deep in her eyes.
Huang Huai didn't know what Chai You and Cao Yun had in mind when they saw him.
At this moment, Ji Changnian coughed and led Chai You and Cao Yun forward. He first saluted Huang Huai and said, "Palace Master, I have been ordered to invite the third elder of Huayin Sect."
At the same time, Ji Changnian said to Chai You and Cao Yun: "This is the master of my palace."
Chai Tong bowed his hands and said, "Huayin Sect Chai Tong has met Master Huang."
Cao Yun bowed slightly and said: "Cao Yun, a disciple of the Huayin Sect, pays homage to the master of the palace."
Huang Huai nodded and said with a smile: "You two are here, Huang is a little far away from us, so please forgive me."
A group of people entered the hall, and both parties took their seats. The boy transformed from the gourd god and demon with a seven-color gourd on his head served the tea, and then stood beside Huang Huai.
Chai Tu glanced at the boy transformed by the gourd god and demon, and couldn't help but shrink his eyes, and there were waves in his heart. Such a boy actually gave him an unfathomable feeling.
