Huizhou, Xuanming Temple, the Taoist biography of Bixia Yuanjun, the great Taoist master.
Lu Mingzi, the headmaster of Xuanming Temple, was inspired by Bixia Yuanjun to attain Taoism, so he established Xuanming Temple to worship Yuanjun Bixia. It has been more than 70,000 years.
But tonight, the wind is blowing coldly, the demon light is far away, and the inside and outside of Xuanming Temple are surrounded by demons and immortals from the Tushan tribe.
"Lu Mingzi, you and Xuanmingguan are done today." Zuo Lingju stood on the top of the cloud and shouted loudly to Lu Mingzi, the headmaster of Xuanmingguan below.
Lu Mingzi held a fly whisk, and stood beside him were a group of disciples, including Tianxian, Xuanxian, True Immortal, and Xuanmingguan disciples from all realms below the True Immortal realm.
"Fu Sheng Boundless Heavenly Lord." Lu Mingzi looked up at Zuo Lingju in the sky, then glanced at the Tushan demon cultivators surrounding Xuanming Temple, and then asked Zuo Lingju: "Fellow Taoist is Tushan Are you from the army? Why do you want to besiege my Xuanming Temple?"
Zuo Lingju sneered and said: "Lu Mingzi, you are such a noble person who forgets things. Two thousand years ago, you killed me, Zuo Mingfang, the leader of the Tushan tribe. I didn't expect you to forget it so quickly?"
"But even though you have forgotten, I, Tu Shanbu, have never forgotten!" Zuo Lingju said fiercely.
Lu Mingzi frowned, looked at Zuo Lingju and said, "It turns out that Taoist friend is here for this matter. Yes, Pindao did kill Zuo Mingfang, but he should have suffered this fate."
"It's high-sounding. Killing someone is killing someone. What excuses are there? You Taoists and Buddhas will always be so hypocritical." Zuo Lingju said coldly.
Lu Mingzi said softly: "Zuo Mingfang wanted to seek the opportunity of the Golden Immortal and absorbed the Yuan Yin of mortal women in the human world. The poor Taoist was just doing justice for heaven."
"You are talking nonsense." A female demon fairy who besieged Xuanming Temple said: "When my brother takes those women's Yuan Yin, he always falls in love with them first, and then takes their Yuan Yin after they get married!"
A Celestial Realm disciple beside Lu Mingzi laughed out loud, "Zuo Mingfang once built a palace in Luzhou Mansion, with more than a thousand mortal women in it. He married all of them, right?"
"That's right." The female demon fairy said: "They are all married by fair matchmakers. Is there any problem? He has not harmed those women from good families."
Lu Mingzi said: "That's the problem. Immortals and demons cannot have families in the human world, and they cannot marry mortals! What's more, Zuo Ming has married so many mortal women, which has seriously disrupted the order of immortals. Pindao refuses to listen to his repeated advice. , I have no choice but to do justice for heaven."
Zuo Mingfang was a little clever in this regard. He thought that he could avoid a lot of trouble by marrying those mortal women home, but he ignored the difference between immortals and mortals.
But the Tushan tribe would not listen to Lu Mingzi's explanation. Zuo Mingfeng was a rare genius in their clan, but he was killed by Lu Mingzi because of such a trivial matter.
It would be fine if Zuo Mingfang's death was his own fault. It would be fine if he didn't avenge this revenge after so many years.
But Zuo Ming, as the clan leader of the Tushan tribe, was a rare genius. His death also cut off most of the Tushan tribe's luck, causing the Tushan tribe's prosperity to be cut in half.
This revenge is a big one, and Tushan tribe has to avenge it. Zuo Lingju and Tushan tribe also have a plan, which is to kill Lu Mingzi and destroy Xuanming Temple, and then take away Xuanming Temple's luck. Used to bless Tushan's luck.
"Clan leader, stop talking nonsense with them and take action quickly." said a Tushan tribe demon immortal.
Zuo Lingju nodded, and then said to Lu Mingzi: "Lu Mingzi, after all, you were the one who killed me, the clan leader of the Tushan tribe. Let's put the matter to rest today."
Lu Mingzi waved the duster in his hand and said calmly: "Since the fellow Taoists of the Tushan tribe are determined to have a show, I won't say much."
As she finished speaking, the whisk in Lu Naringzi's hand suddenly grew larger in the wind, and then the whisk turned directly into a huge white dragon tail and swept towards the surrounding Tushanbe demon cultivators.
The sweep of the dragon's tail was accompanied by dragon roars. Wherever it passed, walls collapsed, roofs collapsed, tiles collapsed, and rocks cracked. It was like a white galaxy streaking across the night sky, bringing up pieces of stars as it swept across.
But in the face of this powerful blow from the Golden Immortal, those Tushan tribe demon immortals did not panic at all.
I saw them quickly using the magic formula, and then a white light lit up all over their bodies. The next moment, all the Tushan demon cultivators present turned into half-human and half-fox.
Fox ears, human face, human body, fox tail.
Especially. "What? Are they all seven-tailed foxes?!" Lu Naruko suddenly looked shocked.
The Taoist behavior of the fox demon clan can be seen from their tails. The seven-tailed fox is equivalent to the Taoist Golden Immortal, the eight-tailed fox is the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and the nine-tailed fox is the Taiyi Golden Immortal who has achieved a great path.
Although both Taiyi Jinxian and Zhengdao Taiyi Jinxian are classified as "Taiyi Jinxian", ordinary Taiyi Jinxian is not as good as Zhengdao Taiyi Jinxian.
At present, all the demon cultivators from the Tushan tribe around them have revealed their seven tails. Does that mean that there are more than a hundred golden immortals besieging Xuanming Temple?
Are you kidding me? Just now, in the eyes of Lu Naringzi, these people were just a group of mysterious immortals and true immortals. Why did their Taoist strength suddenly increase so much?
However, these Tushan tribe monsters have not only improved their Taoist strength, but also their physical strength. In just a moment, Lu Naruko's fly whisk was held by two Tushan tribe fox immortals with their bare hands.
Then the immortal light in the hands of the two fox fairies burst out. Lu Naruko's expression changed and she hurriedly let go of the fly whisk in her hands.
'boom'
As soon as Lu Mingzi let go of the whisk, the whisk exploded under the fairy light.
Lu Naringzi's face was extremely solemn. He looked at Zuo Lingju in the sky and said, "What evil magic did you use? You actually raised the strength of so many people to the level of a seven-tailed demon fox."
"If you can't beat me, just say that someone used evil magic?" Zuo Lingju said coldly: "Is it true that the great Taoist sect's Golden Immortal can't afford to lose?"
After saying that, Zuo Lingju waved his hand and said: "Come on, no one above the True Immortal level will be left alive, the rest will be captured and taken back to the Tushan tribe!"
Following Zuo Lingju's order, more than a hundred seven-tailed fox immortals rushed into Xuanming Temple instantly.
Lu Mingzi gathered the Taoist robe lightly, pinched the magic formula with one finger, and in an instant three golden lights flew out, and Xuanmingguan's mountain-protecting formation immediately came out.
Under a sudden tremor of the mountains and the earth, the mountain-protecting formation collided extremely violently with the seven-tailed fox immortals who came in. For a moment, the sky was stirred and the void was torn apart.
However, two fists were no match for four hands. At the cost of four seven-tailed fox immortals, Xuanmingguan's mountain-protecting formation was directly shattered, and even the base of the formation was uprooted.
More than a hundred seven-tailed fox immortals entered the Xuanming Temple, and Lu Mingzi immediately led his disciples to fight with the Tushan tribe.
The battle lasted for half an hour, and the various fairy lights and spiritual lights produced by the fierce battle directly illuminated most of Huizhou Mansion.
Xuanming Temple has been reduced to ruins, and all the monks above the True Immortal Realm have been killed. Lu Naruko herself was torn into pieces by ninety-eight seven-tailed fox immortals, and her soul and all the dead Xuanming Temple immortal cultivators were killed by Zuo Lingju. Put it away.
Subsequently, more than 230 disciples of Xuanming Temple and below the True Immortal Realm, including those wild dogs adopted by Xuanming Temple, were captured by the Tushan tribe and taken back to Tushan.
Xuanming Temple, the first Taoist temple in Huizhou Prefecture, turned into ruins overnight. When the people from Huizhou Prefecture arrived the next day, there was nothing but ruins covered with broken limbs and bloody flesh. Leftover.
Zuo Lingju and others who returned to the tribe have restored their original Taoist cultivation, which shows that there are limits to their ability to become stronger.
When Zuo Lingju announced that Xuanming Temple had been destroyed and showed the disciples of Xuanming Temple who had been captured by them, the entire Tushan tribe was boiling.
Every Tushan tribe member shouted the names of Zuo Lingju and the 'White Fox God'. Zuo Lingju, under the cheers of the tribesmen, ordered that the dozens of tribesmen killed by Lu Mingzi be buried first. Then they preserved their souls, and then had all the captured Xuanmingguan disciples imprisoned.
Zuo Lingju then went to find the White Fox God, and the White Fox God now had his own temple and no longer had to hide in the cave.
The identity Zuo Lingju found for the White Fox God was the 'White Fox Ancestor' of the Tushan tribe. After all, it's not okay for you to call yourself the 'White Fox God'. Anyone who claims to be a god without being canonized by heaven is an 'evil god'.
But offering sacrifices to ancestors is different. Offering sacrifices to the statues of ancestors does not violate heavenly law.
"Succeeded?" The White Fox God asked as he looked at Zuo Lingju who was offering incense to him.
Zuo Lingju nodded and said, "Don't your Heavenly Blood Techniques last forever?"
White Fox God said: "Permanently sustained? Permanently improve the strength of a fox fairy to a 'seven-tailed fox'?"
"Yes." Zuo Lingju nodded and said, "In this way, our Tushan tribe will be unrivaled in Nanzhan tribe."
The White Fox God sneered and said, "It's okay, but can you afford so many sacrifices?"
"Soul." Zuo Lingju said in a deep voice: "The sacrifice can only be the soul, can't it be anything else?"
The White Fox God said: "I'm sorry, the sacrifice I want can only be the soul of a living being."
"I understand." Zuo Lingju said with some regret.
The White Fox God looked at Zuo Lingju's regretful expression and said calmly: "Don't be disappointed. There will always be a way in the future. The human race is a very large ethnic group."
Zuo Lingju's eyes narrowed and he said: "Although the human race is big, it is not easy to mess with."
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." The White Fox God said calmly: "Besides, I am now teaching you the 'Sky Blood Technique' and helping your people eliminate the backlash of the 'Sky Blood Technique'. I am accepting a sacrifice. Just work two jobs and be content.”
Having said this, the White Fox God suddenly straightened his statue, and then said: "Trouble is coming, deal with it well."
Hearing the words of the White Fox God, Zuo Lingju raised his brows, turned around and looked outside the Tushan tribe's station, only to hear the roar of gongs, ghost drums, and ghost flags waving, appearing in Tushan Outside the headquarters.
When Zuo Lingju came outside the main hall of the Tushan tribe, he found that groups of Yin soldiers had entered the Tushan tribe's quarters. The fox tribe of the Tushan tribe who had just cheered and celebrated the destruction of Xuanming Temple were now in silence. .
"Clan leader." Two fox immortal elders from the Tushan tribe's Xuanxian Realm came to Zuo Lingju, and behind them followed a Celestial Immortal Realm monk wearing a divine robe.
When the Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivator saw Zuo Lingju, he immediately took out his Immortal Official Jade Certificate and handed it over, "The poor Taoist Luo Feng will commit an offense against the Righteous God of the Tiangong Palace in Wucheng for six days tomorrow morning. His Taoist name is Duyan."
Luo Feng, the righteous god of the Six Heavens, Master Duyan!
Zuo Lingju immediately took the Immortal Official Jade Certificate and looked at it, then held the Immortal Official Jade Certificate in both hands and sent it back. Then he bowed his hands and said, "Zuo Lingju, the leader of the Pindao Tushan Demon Tribe, pays homage to Master Duyan." .”
After Master Duyan took back the Immortal Official Jade Certificate, he did not greet Zuo Lingju. He directly took out a decree from his sleeve and said: "In accordance with the decree of Emperor Fengdu of Beiyin, this god came to capture the Tushan Ghost King and bring him to justice. Therefore, the case may involve to your department, so I want to conduct a search on the Tushan Demon Department.”
After saying that, Master Duyan sent the decree in his hand to Zuo Lingju and said: "This is the decree of Emperor Fengdu of Beiyin. Please check it with Chief Zuo."
When Zuo Lingju heard this, his heart tightened slightly, but his appearance was very calm. His eyes quickly glanced at the two pale elders beside him, and then he reached out respectfully and took the decree.
After reading the decree, Zuo Lingju immediately paid his respects in the direction of Fengdu: "Since it is the decree of Emperor Fengdu of Beiyin, I should be the one to lead the decree, and we, the Tushan Demon Tribe, should be free to do what Master Duyan and the gods of the underworld are doing. search."
"Good." Master Duyan nodded slightly, then took back the decree from Zuo Lingju, then turned and said to the tens of thousands of ghost kings and Yin soldiers below: "The gods and generals of the Yin Division listened to the order and immediately searched the Tushan Demon Department. mistaken!"
"Receive the decree!"
Tens of thousands of ghost kings and Yin soldiers shouted in unison, and for a while the ghost energy on Tushan Mountain was dense, and the light fell into the netherworld.
Zuo Lingju also immediately ordered all the Tushan clan members to cooperate with the Yinsi search, and he led two elders to follow Master Duyan.
Soon, the Yin Division generals discovered two anomalies in the Tushan Division. The first one was the previous cave.
"There are a lot of traces of ghosts that have haunted this cave." A ghost king came to Master Duyan and reported.
Master Duyan asked: "A large number of ghosts are infested?" He glanced at Zuo Lingju who was standing aside, but Zuo Lingju did not panic at all, but said: "Back to the Master, this cave was originally a mass grave, so there were once Many lonely wild ghosts were entrenched here, and later they were all taken away by Tushan Ghost King to the ghosts."
Master Duyan was dubious about this statement, and he asked the ghost king, "Are there any other discoveries?"
"Back to Master, there is no more." The Ghost King shook his head.
Master Duyan could only continue to check for the next anomaly, but when passing by the temple dedicated to the White Fox God, Master Duyan felt a cold feeling behind his back. He turned around and saw a statue of a white fox faintly enshrined in the temple. .
"This is..." Master Duyan asked, looking at the white fox statue.
Zuo Lingju said quickly: "Oh, this is the statue of a white fox ancestor of my Tushan tribe, and there is a true spirit of this ancestor on it."
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Master Duyan immediately used his spiritual thoughts mixed with the divine power of the Immortal Official Jade Order to shroud the white fox statue. However, after carefully scanning the inside and outside, Master Duyan did not find anything. No abnormalities were found.
"That's it." Master Du Yan found nothing unusual, so he withdrew his spiritual power, bowed to the white fox statue, and then left the place.
At this time, Zuo Lingju breathed a deep sigh of relief in his heart. Only after passing this level could he truly feel safe and sound.
Finally, Master Duyan saw the Xuanmingguan disciples who were detained by Zuo Lingju. They ranged from the realm of refining essence to the realm of Yangshen, from young children to octogenarians.
"These people are all disciples of Xuanmingguan. They were captured by my Tushan tribe." Zuo Lingju made no secret about this and showed extremely excited emotions, expressing his hatred between Tushan tribe and Xuanmingguan. Briefly described.
Master Duyan frowned. He looked at the Xuan Ming Guan disciples who were locked in the prison and wanted to take care of it. However, the Heavenly Court has always had rules not to interfere in the grudges and fights between monks and sects unless they were involved. Mortal creatures.
"Revenge is a matter of course, but Xuanming Temple has been destroyed, and the leader, elders, and others have been killed. These low-level monks don't have much grudges against your Tushan tribe, so let them go if they should." Although he can't intervene, Du Master Yan still tried his best to advise Zuo Lingju.
Zuo Lingju did not express his position clearly, but respectfully said that he would consider it.
At this time, Zuo Lingju asked: "May I ask the Master, did the Ghost King of Tushan commit something?"
Master Duyan simply narrated the case of the theft of Meng Po Tang, and then said: "Yesterday, a large number of ghosts who took Meng Po Tang entered Huangquan Road, and they all entered the underworld from Tushan ghost ghosts, so... this god After leading the Yinsi gods into Tushan Guixi, they found the soup base of Mengpo soup, and all the Yin soldiers and ghost servants of Tushan Guixi had taken Mengpo soup. Therefore, it was initially concluded that the ghost king of Tushan secretly detained the ghosts for the sake of peace. The accountant stole Meng Po Tang, but he was so eager that he released thousands of ghosts back to the underworld at one time, so he was exposed."
Hearing this, Zuo Lingju nodded immediately, then shook his head and sighed: "It's really unimaginable that Tushan Ghost King would do such a thing."
After half an hour of searching, no clues related to the theft of Meng Po Tang were found in the Tushan Division. So after half an hour, Master Duyan announced his evacuation and led the Yinsi army to retreat. To the underworld.
Of course, Tushan Ghost King was also brought back together.
Seeing that the underworld ghost army had all withdrawn, and the ghost energy and yin energy on Tushan had disappeared, Zuo Lingju finally breathed a long sigh of relief, "Finally passed the test." His tone was full of joy, and next, he It's time for Tushanbe to show off his talents.
Zuo Lingju, who was relaxed, asked the two elders behind him who were also looking happy: "How many ghosts who drank Meng Po soup did you release to the underworld?"
The two elders were smiling, and the fox fairy elder on the left smiled and said: "Including Tushan's ghost soldiers and ghost servants, there are about thirty or forty people."
When they first started talking, the two fox fairy elders from the Mysterious Immortal Realm were still smiling, but after they finished speaking, their expressions suddenly froze, and then they looked at Zuo Lingju in astonishment.
Zuo Lingju's face froze, and his eyes instantly revealed a look of doubt, "Did Master Duyan just say that thousands of ghosts who took Meng Po Tang entered the underworld?"
"." The two fox immortal elders shuddered, "It's impossible. We promise to only let thirty or forty people go back."
Zuo Lingju took a deep look at the two elders, then immediately turned around and headed to the temple where the White Fox God was.
After listening to Zuo Lingju's words, the White Fox God said: "Don't be afraid. There are only two possibilities in this situation. One is that Master Duyan is deceiving you. If you don't have any reaction at that time, it means you have passed the test."
"What about the second possibility?" Zuo Lingju asked.
White Fox God said: "The second possibility is that the underworld also wants to take advantage of the theft of Meng Po Tang to settle some unexplained bad debts, and then just put all the blame on Tushan Ghost King."
"This is a good thing." White Fox God said: "If the underworld really takes the opportunity to write off the debt, then this case should end with Tushan Ghost King, and the underworld will not investigate further."
After hearing the White Fox God's explanation, Zuo Lingju finally understood and felt relaxed.
"That's it! God is really helping me."
