Deep in the water layer, the Canal Dragon King is like a ferocious dragon emerging from the sluice, and the canal water system begins to respond to his anger, galloping!
The entire water layer was transformed into a thunderous ocean under the exaggeration of the divine power of incense.
Dazzling lightning filled the world.
Zhang Jian felt the danger of those thunders and quickly restrained his overly sensitive spiritual thoughts to prevent himself from being hurt by the thunder.
"What a terrifying divine power!"
Zhang Jian squinted his eyes. He knew that the thunder should be the god of the Canal Dragon Lord. It seemed that the direction of the Canal Dragon Lord to strengthen the god was different.
Zhang Jian had frequent contact with the gods during this period, and he knew more about the mysteries of the gods' cultivation than ordinary cultivators.
After a god is officially consecrated as a true god, he will receive the corresponding Shinto inheritance.
Among them, the spiritual practice of the priest is the most important.
Similar to the Fengling Mountain God he met and his father-in-law Bai Shuilongjun, they all followed the path of balanced development.
Various temples will evolve within the priesthood to match the functions of the priesthood, such as merit pools, water eyes, earthly orifice spirit pools, etc., and finally various Shinto magic weapons will be condensed.
In this way, you can assist yourself to maximize the power of incense.
It can also alleviate one's own tedious Shinto functions.
Occasionally, some evolved temples can also assist in the practice of various Shinto techniques.
But there are exceptions.
For example, the old dragon king in front of him directly evolved the god into a single thunder ocean.
Turn into a thunder pool!
The killing ability will be reflected to the greatest extent.
Both have their pros and cons.
Zhang Jian was also taking the opportunity to communicate with the Demon-Slaying Lord at this time.
"Master, you said before that this old Lord Long has some benefits here, but I don't know what the benefits are?"
Demon-Slaying True Monarch heard this and said calmly.
"You're such a snobby little bastard!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jian had a different opinion: "Master, you can't say that. Look at my thin arms and legs. If I intervene in the fight between Yin Shen Lords like this, am I taking a huge risk? Mr. Long is not familiar with me, so he must be planning something!"
Hearing this, the Demon-Slaying Lord did not comment, but said calmly.
"Did you choose the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron as your natal magic weapon?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian immediately realized something and replied: "Master, this is indeed the case!"
Demon-Slaying True Monarch said: "Taking the tripod as the natal magic weapon, most of them are ambitious and intend to get involved in the mountains and rivers of the country. I know what your kid has planned, and the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron itself is imitated by the ancestor's king tripod of the country. Since the refining is the King of Sheji's Cauldron, if you want to continuously advance to the level of a magical weapon, you will naturally need to rely on the aura of the Mountains and Rivers of Sheji!"
"If Old Lord Long asks you what you want in return later, just tell him that you just need to borrow the fragment of the ancient mountain and river map in his warehouse for a look!"
"Ancient mountain and river map?"
Zhang Jian was stunned.
Demon-Slaying True Monarch then gave guidance: "Collecting the spiritual charm of mountains and rivers, you occupy the position of the mountains and rivers, gather the luck and turn it into spiritual charm to temper the cauldron, there is also another way, which can directly understand the ancient maps of mountains and rivers. Understand its form and spirit, and imprint it on the Qianyuan golden tripod!"
"The ancient sages measured the mountains and rivers and gathered the appearance of the Chinese state into them. It has both form and spirit. If you get it, you can also condense the essence of the mountains and rivers. This is also a quick way!"
"However, this ancient map of mountains and rivers has gone through the vicissitudes of time. It has been snatched from different hands several times and has become broken. How much you can understand from these fragments depends on your own ability. If you can condense the map of mountains and rivers in advance and gather it on the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron, no matter It is not difficult to say that in the future you can directly condense the foundation of your soul and achieve the foundation of your golden elixir!"
Zhang Jian's eyes brightened upon hearing this.
Isn't that his specialty when it comes to questions like enlightenment?
This is not a big problem!
In the water layer, after being violently dealt out by the furious Old Dragon Lord, Xuantian Demon God's divine power was dimmed all over his body. He tried to escape from the water layer, but everything inside and outside the water area was surrounded by the old Dragon Lord's thunder pool.
It's like being stuck in a mire.
After several attacks, it was like a prey trapped in a swamp, tightly trapped by the old dragon king, and gradually tore the god's true body into pieces.
Old Dragon Lord hated Xuantian Demon God so much that the thunder light directly wrapped up the many fragments of divine power one by one and refined them all!
Seeing this scene, Zhang Jian couldn't help but ask. "Master, are these two gods completely dead?"
Demon-Slaying True Lord said calmly. "Gods are not that easy to die. Most gods have two bodies: the true body of divine power and the true body of true nature. Remember that if you want to kill gods, in addition to killing their souls, you must also destroy their temples. Only in this way can it be completely killed.
Of course, this is only the characteristic of most high-level gods. Other weaker Mao gods basically die after their souls are destroyed.
However, the two gods of Xuandu also lost their divine bodies that had been tempered for hundreds of years. Hundreds of years of accumulation were destroyed in one blow, which can be regarded as a complete and severe damage to them! "
Hearing this, Zhang Jian nodded.
Said it was noted down.
Demon-Slaying Lord also took the opportunity to give Zhang Jian some advice on how to strangle gods.
Zhang Jian listened carefully with his ears raised.
As the natal ghost and deity, the Red Flower Empress also listened to it for a while, but after hearing it too much, she felt like the hair on her head stood on end.
This Demon-Slaying Lord seems to have a lot of experience in killing gods. Many methods are beyond her imagination. For example, how to trace the true location of a god? You can use the power of incense to search for it with magical methods. However, The Demon-Slaying Lord seemed to be interested in taking care of her, and he also explained some of the corresponding solutions.
This has benefited the Red Flower Empress a lot.
But at this time, after slaying the Xuantian Demon God, Old Dragon Lord manifested the Lilong dragon body and did not stop. Instead, it flew straight out of the water and headed in another direction.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Jian also pulled away and returned to the water first.
He is not in a hurry to ask for favors, as this has to be done by others.
If the Canal Dragon Lord is really not going to come, it won't be too late for him to come to your door when the time comes.
At this time, many people on the guest boat on the water discovered that the storm on the canal had finally subsided.
It seems that the natural disaster has passed.
This can't help but make many people feel relieved, and at the same time they are even more grateful to Zhang Jian.
Zhang Jian's words saved the lives of a boatload of people.
On the guest boat, the captain and his young grandson came to Zhang Jian's door and knocked on the door.
"Zhang Langjun, you must be worshiped by my whole family. If it weren't for you, my whole family would be dead!"
"Brother Zhang, we are still waiting for you! There is no way I can repay you for saving my life!"
Shi Lun also followed with several people, and he was even more shocked by Zhang Jian.
Many of the candidates bowed their hands, even the previous ones who were full of complaints.
Zhang Jian immediately helped everyone up.
"You don't have to be like this. Since we are on the same ship, we are naturally in the same boat!"
Everyone nodded.
The group of people didn't stay on the shore for long. When the river was completely calm, they set off again.
…
On the other side, the Canal Dragon Lord flew out of the water and headed downstream quickly.
As the Dragon Lord of the Canal, he immediately sensed that Taoists from the Xuandu Sect ambushed the troop transport ship of Daqian Chaotang downstream.
As the Dragon God of the Canal, he naturally cannot sit idly by.
It's not just about his incense, but these cultivators have crossed the line.
At this time, he was furious, like a beast king whose territory had been violated.
But when the Canal Dragon Lord arrived at the narrow waterway at the junction of Jixian County and Shanyang County, his face was gloomy.
Most of the dozens of huge troop transport ships have leaked and sunk to the bottom of the water.
Corpses of soldiers were floating in various places on the water.
Many of the corpses were bloated and had arrows stuck in them.
There were countless casualties.
Of the 30,000 reinforcements, at least 60% became water ghosts, and a small number relied on some floating wooden barrels, and the wooden boards were still struggling.
Some were lucky enough to swim back to the shore.
At this time, there were only a dozen or so lonely troop carriers left on the water. The generals on the troop carriers were still shouting loudly, trying to rescue the soldiers who fell into the water.
"Xuandu Sect!"
Old Long Jun had a gloomy face and looked towards the mountainside. The second leader of Xuandu Sect had obviously known about the disadvantages on the Dragon Palace battlefield in advance and had already led his people to evacuate.
Old Longjun held his breath deep in his heart, full of anger and nowhere to vent it.
"Xuan Du Jiao, I have remembered this matter. I will definitely seek justice for my Canal Dragon Palace and these tens of thousands of water ghosts!"
He took a deep breath, his eyes filled with awe.
At this time, deep in the mountains, many rebels were retreating in an orderly manner. The second leader of the Xuandu Sect, known as the Gu God, also noticed the gaze of Old Longjun, and saw that the other party did not dare to retreat due to the divine law. He chased after her with a sneer in his eyes.
Although gods like Long Jun have great powers, most of them are limited by divine laws and areas. Once they leave the Canal God Division, they may be a little weaker than the strong ones of the same level.
What does he have to fear from such a strong man?
As for revenge.
When the Xuandu Sect sweeps through the southern counties and separatizes the territory, this Yunhe Dragon Lord may still rely on the Xuandu Sect to live his life.
"Hmph!"
With a bit of pride, Gu Shen left in an instant.
The next step is to see if the hidden dragon method chosen by Xuandu Sect can capture Jixian County in one fell swoop and seize the foundation of Longxing. If he cannot sweep through the southern counties before Daqian Chaotang reacts, Xuandu will Tongjiao will also be in big trouble.
…
However, the second leader of Xuandu Sect did not know that the situation in Jixian County had changed dramatically at this time.
The letter sent home by Shi Lun quickly attracted the attention of the entire Shi family. Shi Junan, the patriarch of the Shi family, went to personally meet with the county governor Wu Hongqiao.
Wu Hongqiao realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately summoned the county lieutenant Wang Gong. At the same time, he summoned Jiang Chang, the commander of the black guards, and Lu Daoren, the master of the Dongshen Temple. While actively arranging the arrangements, he also asked Lu Taoren of the Dongshen Temple to try to send people to the distant mountain again. Cai Hengxing, the imperial envoy of Yangjun and the governor of the southern counties, warned.
At the end of the battle on the canal, the black-clad guards in Jixian County, with the cooperation of the county soldiers stationed in Jixian County, began to clear up the infiltration of the Xuandu Sect with lightning speed.
Countless killings started at the same time.
…
In the city of Shanyang County, Cai Hengxing had gray hair during this period.
He originally only went to Fengyang County to investigate the death of County Governor Yu Tongguang, but he was unlucky enough to encounter a rebellion caused by the refugees in Shanyang County. He was forced to become a general to quell the rebellion.
That's all.
However, during this period of time, instead of being exterminated, the bandits in Shanyang County were suppressed in increasing numbers.
The rogue bandits swept through more than a dozen counties in a short period of time, claiming to have tens of thousands of troops.
Sitting on the Grand Master's chair, he rubbed his wrists gently. During this period of time, he was already tired of dealing with official documents. He also had to run around coordinating various ministries to exterminate bandits.
Taoist Xue stood next to Cai Hengxing, frowning.
"Brother Cai, you don't need to worry. Reinforcements from the surrounding counties are speeding up. When the reinforcements arrive, it will be easy to kill the rebel!"
Nowadays, the rebellion in Shanyang County is mainly caused by Chang Li, who claims to be the descendant of King Ming.
Taoist Xue also didn't understand how Chang Li, who was just an ordinary long-term worker, could gather so many bandits in a short period of time.
However, he was quite concerned about Chang Li's slogan.
Chang Li claimed to be the Ming King in Xuandu Religion who came to the world. He was the incarnation of a god who was born specifically to save hundreds of millions of people from suffering. He also used the slogan "I am equal to the rich and the poor, I am equal to you", which attracted many people. There are many refugees, and the team is still growing.
What makes Dongshen Guan sensitive is the Xuandu religion.
The Xuandu Sect has long been dismissed as an evil sect by the Dongshen Temple, one of the demonic sects. It has been surrounded and hunted down by the Dongshen Temple.
Taoist Xue knows very well how difficult this sect is!
Hearing this, Cai Hengxing nodded.
"I hope I can complete my journey as soon as possible!"
The two of them were talking in detail when they saw Taoist Xue's expression change. They saw an extremely splendid Green Falcon Crane flapping its wings and flying from a distance. In an instant, it fell into Taoist Xue's hands.
It is a rare bird specially trained by the Taoists of Dongshen Temple to communicate messages. It can travel thousands of miles a day at an extremely fast speed.
Just after reading the information, Xue Daoren's face suddenly changed.
"Brother Xue, what's wrong?"
Taoist Xue glanced at Cai Hengxing, with a troubled look on his face. Sensing something strange, Cai Hengxing quickly took the letter, but after just one glance, he felt like he was struck by lightning.
"The 30,000 reinforcements were attacked halfway across the river, and more than half of them were lost?"
Cai Hengxing's eyes were filled with disbelief at this moment.
He couldn't help but lose consciousness.
"How can this be?"
Taoist Xue also realized the seriousness of the matter. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Governor, there is no lie in this matter. You and I must deal with it carefully to prevent the evil people of Xuandu Sect from taking the opportunity to attack the mountain." Yang County County City!”
Hearing this, Cai Hengxing felt a little dizzy. He was a little unsteady on his feet and couldn't help but hold the chair with his hands, and just murmured in his mouth.
"Thirty thousand reinforcements!"
"Without reinforcements, how can Shanyang County defend itself?"
…
On the canal, the river was clear at this time. There were no other ships for thousands of miles, and there was only one passenger boat drifting among the water and clouds.
This kind of situation makes many people who are used to the bustle feel strange.
But they also know that it is not easy for them to survive such a natural disaster, and other ships may not be so lucky.
On this day, an invisible white mist suddenly began to diffuse from the bottom of the river, covering the water of the Grand Canal.
"Divine power?"
In the cabin, Zhang Jian, who sensed the change in the water surface, moved and couldn't help but walk to the cabin. At this time, he noticed that a layer of white mist was sweeping in. Many people in the cabin, and even the boss of the boat, seemed to fall asleep in an instant.
At this time, the waves were rushing on the water, and only the faint sound of fairy music was heard, and a group of people and horses emerged silently from the water.
At a glance, they were all soldiers and generals, led by a young man with a handsome face and a dragon horn on his head.
