On the way back to the mountain temple following the female ghost in white, Jiang Yuebai learned from the female ghost in white that this world was called the Iron Palm Realm, named after the previous master of the world, Master Iron Palm.
Master, Sanren, etc. are all suffixes in Taoist titles. The Iron Palm Master was a martial arts cultivator who transformed into gods. He led this world for less than three hundred years before he left with several of his disciples.
The Iron Palm Realm is very small, with only three continents, the largest being Xiting Continent where Iron Palm is located.
The female ghost in white has never been there, but I heard that there is the last unexhausted spiritual vein in the entire Iron Palm Realm there, and there is enough spiritual energy to be used for cultivation.
The disciples of the Tie Zhang Sect who have never left with the Tie Zhang Master are still practicing there. The current sect master is a monk at the peak of the Golden Core and is about to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
They are currently located in Dongyue Continent, the smallest area in the Iron Palm Realm. According to the description of the female ghost in white, Dongyue Continent stretches thousands of miles with only one main mountain range and more than a dozen peaks. Mountains and woodlands account for 90% of the entire Dongyue Continent. In the area, there are less than 100,000 mortals and more than 20 mountain gods.
Shintoism is prevalent in Dongyuezhou. The so-called gods are all mountain spirits and wild ghosts that were enshrined by the Immortal Sect Master in those days. They are mainly used to harvest incense from mortals.
When Master Iron Palm was here, he conferred the title of Emperor Dongyue, who commanded the entire Dongyue Continent thousands of miles away, and his Shinto cultivation level was close to that of Yuanying monks.
Unfortunately, Master Iron Palm left and Emperor Dongyue followed, so the Shinto of Dongyue Continent gradually declined.
"Is there a teleportation array to other realms in Xitingzhou?" Jiang Yuebai asked the female ghost in white.
The white-clothed female ghost floating in front paused, "I haven't heard of anyone leaving the Iron Palm Realm in the past hundred years, so I don't know. The temple of the Supreme Immortal and the Little God is right ahead."
Jiang Yuebai looked in the direction pointed by the female ghost in white and saw a dilapidated temple standing in the mountains and forests, with holes in the roof, peeling walls, and overgrown grass all around, desolate and dilapidated.
There is an old tree with a crooked neck next to the temple, covered with dirty and faded red prayer cloths, floating in the wind.
The female ghost in white covered half of her face with her hair and said shyly, "It makes the immortal laugh. In the past two years, it has been difficult for believers to accept it. No one has repaired the temple, so the temple has become like this."
Jiang Yuebai walked into the temple, and there was a stone statue in the middle. It was carved like a female ghost in white, but the statue's face was solemn and not gloomy at all.
"My temple here is small and there is nothing. If the Immortal wants to inquire about the Immortal Way, you can actually go to Xitingzhou. It would be better to go to Tiezhang Sect to inquire."
The female ghost in white was careful.
"You want to drive me away?" Jiang Yuebai asked with raised eyebrows.
The female ghost in white was frightened, "No, no, absolutely not, I..."
"Guihunling Mountain God obeys the order!"
Suddenly, a burst of black smoke billowed in, covering the entire ruined temple in an instant. A sharp sound and rumbling sound came from the black smoke.
"According to the order of Lord Guangling, please quickly hand over this year's incense for worship. Anyone who violates this will be deprived of the divine status and killed without mercy!"
Hearing this, the female ghost in white panicked and knelt down on the ground, covering her face and crying bitterly, "I beg the envoy to grant me some more time. I don't see many people in Guihun Ridge all year round, so where can I get the incense from you?"
There was no response from the black smoke. The female ghost in white removed her face-covering hand and took a peek. When she saw something coming out of the black mist, she immediately cried louder.
"I really don't have any incense at all, I really don't have any incense..."
"Who is this Lord Guangling?"
Jiang Yuebai was seen walking out of the black smoke, holding a dead yellow leather bag in his hand.
The female ghost in white opened her eyes wide in shock, and blood and tears could not stop pouring out of the corners of her eyes. This yellow-skinned man was the number one henchman under Lord Guangling, and he often bullied little mountain gods like them.
Although he relied on Lord Guangling's power, he was also very capable, and they, little mountain gods who didn't even have a dharma body, couldn't defeat him at all.
The female ghost in white looked at Jiang Yuebai again. No spiritual energy fluctuations could be seen on her body, and her depth could not be detected at all. Could it be that she was a foundation builder like Lord Guangling?
The female ghost in white rolled her eyes and immediately bowed her head, "Yan Hongyu, the God of Guihun Mountain, thanks the Immortal for rescuing me. As long as the Immortal has a mission, the little god will never give up."
Jiang Yuebai found a relatively clean place to sit under the statue, threw away Huangpizi's body, and took out the golden page that almost flew away when he killed it.
When Yan Hongyu saw the golden page, her eyes suddenly brightened.
"Tell me, who is this Lord Guangling and what is his cultivation level."
Yan Hongyu suppressed her desire for the golden page and said quickly, "Guangling Lord was an immortal monk during his lifetime. He died unexpectedly while building the foundation, so he took the throne of a nearby mountain god. He spent more than a hundred years cultivating in the mountains, cultivating the Shinto Dharma Body, and It is the late stage of foundation building equivalent to the Immortal Way."
"In the entire Dongyue Continent, he is currently the most powerful. He collects incense offerings from us little mountain gods all the year round for our cultivation. We are so miserably oppressed by him, Supreme Immortal, you must make the decision for us..."
Jiang Yuebai frowned, raised the golden page and asked, "What is this?"
She felt a strong scent of incense on it, the same as the Lin Jingyue seal she had obtained before.
Yan Hongyu swallowed her saliva and said, "We little mountain gods all became self-proclaimed wild gods later on. The orthodox divine position requires the Immortal Sect's Golden Book. This is the Golden Book of Emperor Dongyue. With it, we can truly He controls the mountains and rivers of Dongyuezhou, and all creatures and spirits in the mountains and forests obey his orders."
"Such a great ability?" Jiang Yuebai wondered. She had never seen anything like this in the earth and spirit world.
Yan Hongyu felt that Jiang Yuebai was like a barbarian who didn't understand anything, but in the face of strength, she only dared to think about it in her heart.
"The Imperial Golden Book was refined by Master Tie Zhang using the method of the Immortal Sect. It contains the power of the laws of heaven and earth and the power of the Realm Lord to control a realm. Under these two powers, within the realm, it is lower than that of the Transformation God. No living thing can resist.”
Jiang Yuebai suddenly understood, that is to say, the realm master has the supreme power of life and death within a realm.
No wonder the Supreme Elder said that in the upper world, the composition of sects is no longer important.
She had to be careful when walking in the upper world from now on, and it was best not to mess with beings like the Realm Lord, otherwise she would be like a turtle in a urn, being killed behind closed doors.
"Sir, what you have in your hand is just a corner of the golden book. Emperor Dongyue gave up his throne and followed Master Iron Palm to leave. The golden book left in Dongyue Continent was broken into pieces by wild gods from all directions. If you have a corner of the golden book, you can You can gather incense faster and better, cultivate the Dharmakaya, and officially embark on the Shinto. As long as it is not destroyed by external forces and continues to offer incense, the Shinto Dharmakaya can live as long as heaven and earth."
"Do you have this thing?" Jiang Yuebai looked at Yan Hongyu.
Yan Hongyu's expression choked up, and finally she gritted her teeth and took out a little gold page from her fingernails and offered it to her with both hands.
"The little god is willing to give the fragments of the golden page to the Immortal. I beg the Immortal to let the little god follow you."
Jiang Yuebai accepted the golden page, lowered his eyes and said, "It doesn't matter whether you want to follow me or not, leave your Shinto skills for me to see, and then help me give a gift to this Lord Guangling and invite people here. Meet me."
Jiang Yuebai threw Huang Pizi's body in front of the female ghost in white.
The female ghost in white understood that she was being asked to die. If she dared to bring Huang Pizi's body to Lord Guangling, Lord Guangling would kill her immediately.
"Shangxian... I'm afraid it's not good, right?"
Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "Xiao Lu, you go with her. If Mr. Guangling doesn't come, you should reason with him. Do you understand?"
Xiao Lu appeared, with phosphorus fire surging on both sides of the lantern.
[Kill kill kill]
The female ghost in white felt the terrifying aura of yin fire on Xiao Lu's body, which had already passed the foundation building stage. She was immediately ecstatic and quickly picked up Huang Pizi's body and stood up.
"Don't worry, Immortal. The little god promises to 'invite' Mr. Guangling to you."
"Well, go ahead."
The female ghost in white left behind her Shinto skills and left with Xiao Lu in a majestic manner. Jiang Yuebai released Jixiang again and fed it a little golden spiritual energy.
"Explore the three hundred miles around to see if there are any spiritual veins or other heavenly materials or earthly treasures left behind. The main thing is to look for fragments of this kind of golden book. You are not allowed to eat them. I am useful."
Zhizhi!
Ji Xiang took the order and left. Jiang Yuebai picked up the bamboo slip on the ground and opened it. It recorded the "Incense Refining Method".
"This is rare in the earth spirit world. The mortal incense in the earth spirit world is basically harvested by Taoist temples and Buddhist temples under various sects. Mountain spirits and wild ghosts have not yet had their turn. New knowledge, let's take a look!"
