On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the sun and the moon both meet the ninth day. Nine is the pole of Yang, and nine and nine return to one, so it is called the Double Ninth Festival.
In ordinary people's eyes, this day is a good time to climb high to worship ancestors and celebrate the harvest. However, in Taoist culture, although this day is equally important, its meaning is quite different.
They believe that on this day, the pure air in the world rises and the turbid air sinks. The higher the terrain, the more pure air gathers, and you can take advantage of the pure air to ascend to the sky. Therefore, it is considered to be the best time to ascend to heaven and become an immortal.
It was also on this day that in the Central Plains, dozens of rivers and lakes forces mobilized at the same time and gathered towards Zhulu Mountain, the Holy Land of Demonic Dao.
Of course, they didn't dare to get too close, they just stayed ten miles away. However, they formed formations according to their respective sects and tightly wrapped Zhulu Mountain from all directions.
Naturally, such a big move cannot be hidden from the people on Zhulu Mountain.
Ke Zhanyue took the initiative to ask for orders: "The demon lord's subordinates will take the people out to kill them, let them know how powerful they are!"
Look at the gathering forces below. They are basically small sects such as Guangling Sword Sect and Chaoxin Sect, which are only somewhat famous within a state or even a county.
Not to mention the current demon sect, even before Chi Yao came, they were not qualified to run wild in Zhulu Mountain!
However, Chi Yao waved his hand to stop him: "Don't worry, these are just appetizers, and the real owner hasn't appeared yet. It seems that Longhushan's move this time is bigger than I expected. This is to gather the entire Zhongyuan Zhengdao, are you here to hold a demon slaying conference?"
Chi Yao has better eyesight. He basically looked at all the sects with his own name below, and found that although they are not among the first-class, most of them are the backbone of the world, and there are basically two in the sect. A young master who is at or close to the second level is in charge.
Being able to recruit so many sects to beat drums and cheer for him at one go shows the prestige of Longhushan Tianshi Mansion in the world. In the Central Plains, except for a few transcendental forces such as Wudang Mountain and Wu Family Sword Tomb, which are both at the top, most sects have to give them some face.
Time passed minute by minute, and finally, when the sun was high in the sky, several loud sword sounds sounded outside the mountain.
Immediately afterwards, the wind and clouds surged, the purple air rose, the lotus fell, and the auspicious clouds carried several purple-robed Taoist priests and landed in front of Zhulu Mountain.
This scene made Chi Yao's mouth twitch slightly.
Yes, the realm of celestial phenomena can indeed stir up the world in a short period of time and create some auspicious scenes of one kind or another. The purple energy, lotus flowers, and auspicious clouds just now were all created in this way. There is no secret at all.
But you’re not here to fight this time. What’s the use of all these fancy things?
The next second, he knew what it was for.
I saw an old man wearing a gorgeous Taoist robe of yellow inside and purple outside, rising with a sword, flying into the air, and his voice rolled out:
"Zhao Danxia, a poor Taoist, is the headmaster of Dragon and Tiger. This time I invite the righteous people from all over the world to gather here to slay demons! However, God has the virtue of good life. Except for the demon leader Chi Yao in Zhulu Mountain, the rest of the people are like If you are willing to abandon darkness and embrace light, you can go down the mountain as soon as possible. Those who turn back will be given a lighter sentence!"
"Oh, it turns out it's for differentiation."
Chi Yao snorted disdainfully, becoming increasingly disdainful of Longhu Mountain in this world.
Ke Zhanyue and Qingqiu had similar expressions. They had been involved in the demonic path for more than a day or two, so they naturally understood how unreliable the promises left by the so-called righteous path were.
Besides, Zhao Danxia only promised to be given a lighter sentence, but she did not give any specific details on how to deal with it. What if my martial arts skills were abolished and you were spared your life? It would be better to die! Zhengdao always plays this kind of word game very poorly.
However, Yuan Tingshan's eyes moved imperceptibly.
Chi Yao, who was well aware of this, raised the corners of his mouth, feeling the poison that had taken root in their bodies, and showed an expectant smile.
Everyone in Longhu Mountain knew that people in the Demon Cult were untrustworthy and had almost no loyalty or credibility at all, so they chose to launch a psychological offensive before the war to undermine the enemy's fighting spirit. How could Chi Yao not know this?
As a grand master of voodoo, he had many ways to prevent his subordinates from betraying.
"You can even use the trick to your advantage..."
Looking at Zhao Danxia shouting in mid-air, Chi Yao's eyes became more and more strange.
…
…
After Zhao Danxia persuaded her to surrender a few words, she was not surprised that everyone in the Demon Sect remained motionless.
After all, he is someone who can integrate the Demonic Cult in a short period of time. It would be abnormal if they really disintegrated on the spot with such a show and shout.
This kind of thing is not very effective now, but it may be able to work wonders at critical moments.
Then he changed the topic, suppressed the trace of compassion, and his aura suddenly became fierce: "Devil Chi Yao, you slaughtered your comrades, plotted against the heavenly master, and disrupted the world. The crimes are so heinous that it is impossible to describe them! This poor Taoist will be punished by heaven today, Get rid of you! Do you dare to come out and fight?"
This Prime Minister in Yuyi, who was ordered to take charge of Taoist affairs in the world and who always presented himself as gentle and tolerant, finally revealed his murderous and fierce side in front of the world.
It is said that Li Dangxin, who is invincible, also has Buddha's angry eyes, and he, Zhao Danxia, also does not lose at all!
As soon as he said this, Zhao Danxia's aura surged, and purple-gold light covered her whole body, almost covering his face.
There was a storm between the sky and the earth. The dark clouds rubbed against each other and the "rumbling" thunder continued.
"Thunder comes!"
Zhao Danxia gave an order, and at the same time, a talisman with complicated patterns on her fingertips spontaneously ignited without fire.
crackling——
Thunder roared.
Following his command, a blazing white lightning crashed down towards the top of Zhulu Mountain!
Seeing this scene, the many sect disciples gathered outside Zhulu Mountain were all distracted.
How could they get the chance to see such a scene where a real person commands the might of God?
Not to mention the disciples, even the head or great elder of their little master realm may not be able to see him once in his life.
At this time, each of them was trembling with fear and sincerely convinced. At this moment, Longhu Mountain's luck was also slowly rising.
This is Longhushan’s strategy.
This time they not only want to get back the luck that was taken away by the Demon Sect, but they also want to take advantage of the opportunity to seek blessings from misfortune and reap a wave of luck in the world!
There is no such thing as a martial arts leader in the world today. The city that gathers the most luck in the world is Wang Xianzhi's Emperor Wu City. Because of its reputation of being invincible in the world, it is regarded as a holy land of martial arts.
Although Longhu Mountain has taken up most of the Taoist sect's luck due to the royal canonization, they are not willing to stop there and want more!
It's okay if he doesn't have the chance usually, but this time he took advantage of the opportunity to eradicate the demon sect and shocked the world, killing two birds with one stone.
Listening to the faint exclamation and envy coming from below, Zhao Danxia nodded secretly in her heart.
Just now, he used the Immortal Talisman as soon as he made his move, just to gain the upper hand. Now it seems that the effect is indeed good.
The thunder of heaven's punishment traveled thousands of miles in an instant, and before Zhao Danxia's words had completely dissipated, the lightning had already landed on the top of Zhulu Mountain.
Boom!
!
There was a huge explosion, thunder and smoke mixed with it, and a small mushroom cloud rose from the top of Zhulu Mountain.
"So easy?"
When Zhao Danxia saw this, not only was she not surprised, but she frowned.
As for the strength of Chi Yao, the newly promoted demon lord, many of the Celestial Masters of Longhu Mountain, big and small, have gone through repeated discussions.
Chi Yao didn't have many public successes, and he only had three full hits.
The first time was at Spring God Lake. It is said that he had just been promoted, and then he defeated Wang Mingyin with one move and overturned several Huanglong ships of the Qingzhou Navy.
Wang Mingyin is the eleventh master in the world. Although this ranking is often ridiculed, his ability is not false. Wu Fu's Vajra realm has been almost perfected by him, and he is only one step away from entering the Zhixuan. Once a martial artist is promoted to Zhixuan, his combat effectiveness will be better than most of the first-level martial arts among the three religions.
If he can defeat him with one move, Chi Yao's strength is guaranteed to be very high.
The second time was at Zhulu Mountain, where he single-handedly defeated King Guangling's thousand cavalry.
Longhu Mountain has a close relationship with the Liyang court. For this reason, they sent someone to communicate with King Guangling and understand the specific situation that day.
From Lu Shengxiang's description, they learned that although Chi Yao borrowed the power of the insect beasts from Zhulu Mountain to defeat a thousand iron cavalry, he had already defeated Chai Qingshan, the previous great swordsman of Dongyue Jianchi. !
The Great Sword Sect of Dongyue Sword Pond is a solid Zhixuan realm swordsman, and in terms of combat effectiveness alone, it may even exceed the Celestial Realm of the three religions. Neither Zhao Danxia, the leader of Longhu Mountain, nor Zhao Xiyi, who is a generation above her, are completely sure that they can defeat him.
As a result, their assessment of Chi Yao's strength can only be improved to a higher level, pointing to the peak of Xuan or the beginning of the celestial phenomenon.
There is not much to say about the third battle. Even if Zhao Danping holds the Dragon and Tiger Immortal Barrier, let alone a Celestial Realm warrior, he may not be his opponent against Chai Qingshan.
So in the end, to be conservative, Longhushan's assessment of Chi Yao's strength was fixed at the level of a Celestial Realm warrior.
As for the warriors in the Celestial Realm, with very few exceptions, in actual combat, it is agreed that they correspond to the land gods of the three religions, which are also commonly known as the saints of the three religions.
Therefore, Zhao Danxia used her own celestial realm to activate the immortal talisman to summon thunder as soon as she took action. This was an attack belonging to the terrestrial realm of gods!
However, after the thunder and smoke dispersed, the scene revealed shocked everyone.
I saw an illusory statue standing a hundred feet high on the top of Zhulu Mountain!
The Dharma Appearance as a whole showed a deep dark red color, as if it was completely composed of blood. The face could not be seen clearly, but the pair of black horns on the top of the head were particularly eye-catching.
The huge statue has only the upper body, without any clothing to cover it. The solid muscles as strong as a knife and an ax are clearly exposed, and a strong and rough aura hits the face, giving people the most primitive power impact that seems to come from the ancient wilderness!
Compared with this figure, even the angry-eyed Vajra form of Buddhism actually feels a little weak in retrospect.
Many feelings such as wilderness, desolation, ancientness and domineering are almost perfectly displayed in this Dharma image. It seems that only by seeing him can we truly understand what these words describe.
Every muscle line on his body is so simple and strong, even ordinary people can feel the terrifying power contained within. The truly strong ones were even more dismayed by it, as they seemed to be able to see some microcosm of laws similar to talismans.
The Dharma is not a dead thing. With every breath it takes, the surrounding mountains and earth veins are faintly vibrating simultaneously, and the vitality of heaven and earth has already resonated with it. Every breath and every breath is completely natural.
The Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain is naturally very knowledgeable. Things like Dharma, which are almost completely beyond the imagination of ordinary Jianghu people, are not so strange in their eyes.
But one thing still needs to be emphasized -
Dharma, also known as Dharma, Heaven and Earth, is a great weapon that can only be obtained by borrowing the power of heaven and earth. It can also be regarded as the real reliance of one person on the army after the realm of celestial phenomena.
Zhao Danxia's sword was hovering in mid-air, feeling bitter in her mouth.
They felt that they had high enough regard for this new leader of the Demon Sect who suddenly appeared, a martial artist in the Celestial Realm. That was a higher evaluation than Cao Guanzi in Tsing Yi, who was ranked third in the martial arts evaluation.
But they didn't expect that the other party could still surprise them!
In the realm of ordinary celestial phenomena, even Cao Changqing can wave the wind and clouds with the wave of his sleeves, but it is still difficult for him to use the power of heaven and earth to construct such a lifelike statue.
The Buddhist and Taoist families do have some tricks up their sleeves, because they have many ascended predecessors and can borrow immortal dharma from the sky, but if their own realm is not enough, they will have to pay a huge price.
If it were an ordinary martial artist, the one who could truly condense this level of Dharma on his own would have to be a land immortal!
"Land God, how is this possible?!"
Zhao Danxia almost pulled off her beard.
Even in this current era, it is a golden age that was born after a large amount of luck flowed into the world, and first-class masters emerge one after another. But at present, the 100% confirmed land gods in the world are still dissatisfied with the magic of two hands, and most of them are saints of the three religions.
The two ancestors of Longhu Mountain, Zhao Huangchao and Zhao Xuansu, the Buddhist monk Nagarjuna and Li Dangxin, the leader of Beimang Daode Sect Yuan Qingshan, the Confucian sage Xie Guanying hidden in Tai'an City, and the one person who suppressed them in Emperor Wu City The invincible Wang Xianzhi in this world.
Among them, the only true martial artist in the Earthly Immortal Realm is Donghai Wang Xianzhi!
Everyone knows that the actual combat ability of a martial artist is generally higher than that of the three sects of the same realm. Could it be that the person he has to face today is actually the second best in the world?
Zhao Danxia knew very well that with her own cultivation level, even if she held an immortal talisman, she could only deal with a Celestial Realm martial artist, and she might not be able to win. For land gods, their ultimate move is equivalent to someone else's average A, which is impossible to fight.
However, they are just immortals on land, and Longhu Mountain is not without them.
"Originally it was just a trump card that would not be used, but now it seems that it has to be activated in advance."
He sighed, flicked his fly whisk, and winked at his father Zhao Xiyi who was also a Heavenly Master behind him.
Then, he made a Taoist secret with his hands and said silently in his heart, "Zhao Danxia, the unworthy descendant, respectfully invites our ancestors to come!"
Suddenly, there was a stream of clear air rising into the sky from the Longhu Mountain, the ancestral court of the Southern Taoist Sect, and an illusory old Taoist with white hair and childish face could be seen flashing away.
The soul of a celestial being, invisible to ordinary people, left the body thousands of miles away, and poured into the headmaster Zhao Danxia's body from Baihui above his head in an instant.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were exquisite and his expression was completely different from before!
