As the saying goes, you can rely on mountains to eat mountains, and you can rely on water to eat water.
The Yuqin Mountain Range is one of the large mountain ranges in Yunzhou. It stretches for hundreds of miles. It is home to outstanding people and beautiful places. It is a blessed place where natural spirits gather. It is rich in natural materials and treasures. It is a paradise for countless monsters and monsters to survive.
In the past, before the Yuqin Demon Emperor came to power, there were endless conquests here.
The powerful men with great supernatural powers competed for the earth's veins and fought for the position of mountain god in an earth-shattering fight:
The monsters and monks below also fought hard for the treasures in the mountains. The struggle for treasures often turned into a battle of life and death, which was extremely chaotic for a time.
Yuqin Mountain has become increasingly impoverished due to endless demands from all parties.
It was not until later that the Demon Emperor Yuqin joined forces to worship his brother Fu Hua.
Taoist and Xiong Wu captured Yuqin Mountain and secured the throne of the mountain god. Only then did the chaos end and basic order was established.
After the Yuqin Shrine took over Yuqin Mountain, it did not occupy Yuqin Mountain, but opened the door of convenience for all living beings.
The local mountain god has absolute control over the divine domain and holds the authority to "open and seal mountains"
In order to fish without drying up the lake, the God of Yuqin Mountain has not opened up all the Yuqin Mountains. Some areas are "opened" and anyone can enter and come and go freely. The other part will be "closed" and practitioners are strictly prohibited from entering. Only people who have not yet enlightened their spiritual wisdom are allowed to enter. Mountain beasts are not restricted.
In the secular drama Yi Zhi story, there is a certain master who "opens the mountain with one sword", and this is what he is talking about.
But, you can’t just open a mountain casually.
If you offend a tiger, he will look for trouble. If you don't have the guts to attack the mountain randomly, you are looking for death.
The God of Yuqin Mountain is a top-notch monk with great supernatural powers, and his magic power reaches the sky. Few monks dare to make trouble in his territory, and break his rules by "opening mountains and stealing heavenly materials and earthly treasures".
After a period of time in "Forbidden Mountain", natural materials and earthly treasures will spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain, turning into a real cornucopia of natural materials and earthly treasures everywhere.
It is said to be a banquet of the mountain gods, but it is essentially a "land-dividing conference" and a "treasure-dividing conference", or a "red-dividing conference" that has been closed for many years. Everyone in the Yuqin Mountain Range has a share.
Yuqin Shrine, Taoist Fu Hua, and Xiong Wu, the three great supernatural monks, are the masters of Yuqin Mountain. Needless to say, they take away 30% of the mountain each time and pick out the best and most fertile treasures.
The rest was handed over to the major forces in the Yuqin Mountain Range.
Tianchao Yuqin County is at the top level among the major forces in the Yuqin Mountain Range, second only to the main Yuqin Palace.
It's not that Xianting is reluctant to send powerful people with great magical powers to take over, but it just doesn't want to antagonize the neutral Yuqin Shrine and maintains a certain degree of restraint.
Correspondingly, although the Yuqin Demon Emperor did not accept the imperial edict from the Celestial Court, he did give the Celestial Court generous treatment. During the Mountain God's Banquet, a large amount of land was allocated to Yuqin County each time.
Of course, there are good and bad lands. If you want to get the best treasure land, you have to rely on your ability.
There are some dense and fertile lands that are rich in natural materials and treasures. One piece of land is worth several pieces. The difference is huge every time you come back.
Therefore, the open and secret fighting at every mountain god's banquet is extremely fierce.
The Yuqin County of Dachang Dynasty is adjacent to Yuqin Mountain, and most of the monks’ cultivation resources in the county also come from the Yuqin Mountains. This is why Xianting is urgently looking for candidates for the county capital management.
Next, whether Yuqin County's treasury is sufficient or not, whether the monks in the county will live a good life or a hard life will depend on this mountain god's banquet.
If you participate in the Yuqin Mountain Divine Banquet and fail to allocate good land to Yuqin County, even if the Celestial Court does not blame you, the subordinates of Yuqin County will probably continue to criticize you, secretly criticizing the incompetence of their current county governors and county governors.
If the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.
As the governor of Yuqin County, Wang Xi naturally understood the seriousness of the matter. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Chu Chen's physical training was successful.
"Ling Xiao, it's up to you. Alas, I don't know why the God of Yuqin Mountain suddenly changed the rules this year. It shocked me. Fortunately, Xianting sent you Ling Xiao to take over as the county governor."
"Uncle Wang, please rest assured, I will do my best.
Chu Chen smiled and his eyes fell on the banquet.
While he was talking, someone at the banquet had already come up to the stage to raise the cauldron.
Got it
Those who are qualified to participate in the Mountain God's Banquet must have at least a fifth-level Taoist cultivation level and practice in Yuqin Mountain all year round. Only in this way can they have the opportunity to receive an invitation from the Mountain God.
The first person to take the stage was a white-faced scholar. He was handsome and handsome, but he was not good at physical strength. He stood in front of the first bronze cauldron, his mana surged, he suppressed his blush, and shook his head slowly. For a long time, he could only lift the bronze cauldron slightly.
At the end, the snow-white fox tail was exposed, but he still could not lift the bronze cauldron blessed with the power of earth veins, which made the guests laugh, and the banquet was full of joy.
The God of Yuqin Mountain, who was sitting on the high platform, shook his head and flew up a white warrant in front of the case.
"Inferior place! Catch and sniff!"
The white-faced scholar's face turned slightly red: "Thank you for the reward, Master!" After being allocated a lower-level land, you still have to catch it. This is undoubtedly the last place you have waited for. The forest land you finally get must be picked by others. Whether it's good or bad depends on luck. , participating in the Mountain God Banquet is basically just a formality.
After the white-faced scholar, one after another people came to the stage to hold the cauldron.
The monsters and wandering cultivators in the mountains move around alone. There is no need to discuss who has achieved physical training and who should be sent out. They move quickly, one after another, on the stage to lift the cauldron.
Among them, many performed quite well in lifting one-color and two-color bronze tripods.
If you can lift the bronze tripod, you can be ranked. The one with the highest ranking will be chosen first.
However, there are not many casual cultivators and monsters who can lift the bronze cauldron. Only a few monsters with natural divine power and human martial arts casual cultivators who refine their bodies and shapes have successfully lifted the cauldron.
Brother Dog Lao Liu also participated, and he raised a bronze tripod with a divine light.
In fact, Lao Liu's performance was quite good. It wasn't long before he broke through to the fifth level of Taoist cultivation, and his method of cultivation was not specialized in physical body refining. It was not easy to be able to lift the giant cauldron that blessed the land of earth veins.
The real fierce competition does not come from casual cultivators, but from the competition between large and small forces in the Yuqin Mountains.
Being able to achieve success in the Yuqin Mountains, possessing a certain amount of power, and possessing Taoist and magical powers are not weak. Everyone who takes action is at least a late-stage fifth-grade cultivation, or even a Dzogchen cultivation, and is physically strong.
Not long after, people one after another raised the three-color bronze cauldron and the four-color bronze cauldron.
There were even two big demons who raised "five-color bronze that attracted the attention of the whole audience, and even the God of Yuqin Mountain slapped the table cauldron" and applauded and praised them endlessly.
The head is a bull demon, whose name is "Blood Barbarian King". It has the blood of ancient barbarian bulls in its body. It is born with divine power and its physical body is extremely powerful. The other head is an ape demon, nicknamed "Eight-Armed Heavenly King". Its body is an eight-armed Vajra Ape, a wild beast. A famous and powerful beast, it is said that it has the power to tear apart tigers and leopards shortly after it is released, and it is extremely powerful.
"Ho ho ho!"
"eye!"
After these two peerless monsters took action, the atmosphere of the entire mountain god's banquet reached a climax, and countless monsters applauded and made friends.
Xiong Wu said with a smile: "Being able to lift a five-color bronze cauldron, in terms of strength, has touched the level of great supernatural powers, which is extremely rare.
Demon Emperor Yuqin and Taoist Fu Hua also nodded slightly, affirming the power of the two demons Niu and Ape.
However, Yuqin Demon Emperor did not say much, but cast his gaze on Wang Xi and Chu Chen who were standing aside, and said with a smile;
"Wang County Governor, Chu Du Governor, you are the only one in Dachang Yuqin County who has not taken action. I wonder which of you two will take action?"
After Yuqin Demon Emperor finished speaking, all eyes in the audience fell on Chu Chen and Wang Xi.
The Blood Barbarian King and the Eight-Armed Heavenly King also cast provocative glances at Chu Chen and Wang Xi, especially when they looked at Wang Xi, they were full of provocation.
The scholar Zhang Linsheng and the dog brother Lao Liu cast their eyes with concern and curiosity.
"Senior Yuqin, this junior is willing to give it a try."
Chu Chen didn't feel timid at all before the battle, so he calmly stood up and left the table, flying towards the high platform.
When Wang Xi, the governor of the county, saw Chu Chen coming to the stage, he felt quite ashamed and said through his spiritual consciousness:
"Both these two great monsters are alien beasts, and they have learned extraordinary skills. I have fought with them before, and I can't lose to them in any serious fight. It's just a matter of pure strength, and our human race can't match it. Ling Xiao, Don't be stressed, either.
Just do your best. "
"Uncle Wang, I know."
Chu Chen smiled, and with a flash of his body, he appeared on the high platform.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on him
"When it comes to Taoism, magic and supernatural powers, the human race is indeed powerful, but in terms of strength, how can they compare? Now Yuqin County finally cannot take the lead.
What a wonderful move by the mountain god.
"Yes, yes, the mountain god has good intentions."
At the mountain god’s banquet, many monsters booed him and talked a lot.
Chu Chen ignored the comments of the demons at the banquet and the concern of the scholar Lao Liu. He looked at the bronze tripod on the high platform with a faint smile on his lips.
Coincidentally, at the main seat of the banquet, Taoist Fu Hua, a monk with great supernatural powers, saw his disciple ascending to the high platform. The same smile as Chu Chen appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Second brother (second brother), why are you laughing?"
Yuqin Demon Emperor and Xiong Wu noticed something strange about their companions and looked sideways.
Taoist Fu Hua smiled, stroked his beard and said
"Brother, third brother, how many cauldrons do you think this Chu Duguan from the Great Chang Dynasty can lift?
Xiong Wuxin was straightforward and said immediately;
"Although he is defeated by the weak human race, I think he has practiced the superior spirit-raising immortal skill. His physical body has been cultivated quite well and his strength is quite high. He can probably lift three or four cauldrons! 99
Speaking of which, Xiong Wu's evaluation was not low, and this was due to Chu Chen's fifth-grade super-grade Taoist cultivation.
The Yuqin Demon Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"This boy has an extremely good escape technique. I can't tell the exact depth of it, but my third brother is right. He cultivates the energy to refine his form very well and has a solid foundation.
After saying that, Yuqin Demon Emperor’s eyes fell on Fuhua Dao’s body.
"Second brother, you were born in the human race, but you have refined your physical body to the pinnacle. You are an expert at it. Tell me, what does this Chu Du Guan do?
When Taoist Fu Hua heard this, he secretly felt funny. You must have asked the right person.
"This boy is as good as I was back then."
Hearing this, Yuqin Demon King and Xiong Wu were secretly surprised by such a high evaluation.
As sworn brothers, they really knew how terrifying the body of the white-haired, boy-faced Taoist next to them was, no less intimidating than the descendants of mythical beasts with top bloodline like them.
In other words, Taoist Fuhua believed that Chu Chen could also lift the five tripods.
Just as everyone was talking, a burst of exclamations broke out at the Mountain God Banquet.
I saw that Chu Chen lifted the first bronze tripod easily, without any sign of difficulty, and he was able to do so with ease.
Afterwards, Chu Chen put down the bronze cauldron and raised the second and third cauldrons...
The whole process seemed very relaxed, which was in sharp contrast to the way everyone was blushing and struggling to lift the cauldron before.
Suddenly, the lively mountain god’s banquet became more and more lively.
The monsters who had just been booing him actually started cheering and shouting for Chu Chen to lift the fourth cauldron. Monsters, ghosts, snakes, and demons danced wildly. It was so lively.
"Boom!"
Chu Chen put down the third bronze tripod and moved towards the fourth bronze tripod.
The bronze cauldron itself is not heavy. For fifth-grade Taoist monks, it can be lifted easily. However, with the nine-color divine light blessed by the Jade Qin Demon Emperor and suppressed by the power of the earth's veins, the bronze cauldron becomes extremely heavy.
At this time, it is no longer a matter of lifting the cauldron, but of fighting against the power of the surrounding heaven and earth.
Chu Chen has perfected the fifth-level Taoist practice, the [Spirit Embryo Treasure Body] has been completed, and he possesses divine power. The first three tripods do not put much pressure on him.
However, after lifting the fourth cauldron that blessed the four-color divine light, he clearly felt the pressure and lived up to his initial ease.
The five tripods are heavier than the four tripods, and the power to connect the earth veins is deeper and deeper. Just now, the two super-level monsters, Ox and Ape, stopped here.
As long as he lifts the five tripods, it means that he will be ranked among the top three, and Yuqin County will be able to get a first-class place.
I thought that if Chu Chen could lift the Four Cauldrons, Yuqin County would be able to do it, but I never expected that Chu Chen’s physical body could be cultivated to such an extent.
step.
How can this person be better at physical training... He has obviously cultivated to an extremely advanced level, comparable to the top alien monsters.
"Zhang Lang, this is your best friend? He is so powerful!"
In the corner of the banquet, Lu Yan, the third princess of Yuqin, was watching in the side hall. When she saw this scene, she immediately heard from her spiritual consciousness that Zhang Linsheng was greatly surprised.
"Yes! Brother Chu is naturally powerful, but...but when did he reach this level of physical cultivation?
When Zhang Xiucai saw this scene, he was slightly stunned. He was no longer the poor and ignorant scholar he was before. Naturally, he knew how far his friend's physical cultivation had reached.
On the high platform of the banquet, the three monks with great supernatural powers were also alarmed.
Yuqin Demon King and Xiong Wu watched Chu Chen with great interest and were very interested in him.
The only old god present was Taoist Fu Hua. He half-squinted his eyes, as if he already knew the outcome.
However, Taoist Fu Hua soon became a little surprised.
For no other reason than Chu Chen did not step down after putting down the Five Cauldrons, but continued towards the Sixth Cauldron.
By winning the first place, Yuqin County can choose good treasures at will. Naturally, Chu Chen has no reason to be polite.
Just heard a loud shout.
As the palace trembled slightly, the sixth cauldron rose slowly.
For a moment, the lively mountain god’s banquet fell into silence
Xiong Wu couldn't help but ask: "Brother, can the power of your Six Cauldrons be shaken by the fifth-level Taoism?"
Demon Emperor Yuqin said truthfully: "It is possible, a few cubs of mythical beasts who are born with earth and are good at divine power can do it.
After saying that, Xiong Wu and Yuqin Demon Emperor both looked at Taoist Fu Hua with strange expressions on their faces:
"Second brother (second brother), was your level of fifth-level Taoism so strong back then?"
"Ahem~ Yeah, almost, almost."
Taoist Fu Hua was perfunctory, but he was greatly surprised in his heart.
There's something wrong with this disciple's technique. Why does it seem to be much stronger than the technique I practice...
