The so-called Five Immortals are the fox, the yellow fox, the white fox, the willow fox, and the gray fox.
Fox is a fox, yellow is a weasel, white is a hedgehog, willow is a snake, and gray is a rat.
There are many legends about fox spirits. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a saying that "no village is complete without fox spirits". Fox spirits in various stories of gods, demons and monsters often fall in love with humans, leaving behind many legends.
Weasels, also known as Uncle Huang, are said to be able to influence people's mental world and cause hysteria. The Wong Tai Sin Temple in a port city in southern China is still a popular place of worship.
There are even more legends about Liu Xian. According to legend, both Fuxi and Nuwa had human heads and snake bodies, and the snake was also known as a small dragon, belonging to the twelve zodiac animals. Some say that Liu Xian's magical powers were greater than those of the fox spirit, capable of transforming into a dragon and a human, and able to manipulate objects from a thousand miles away.
There are many folk tales about snake spirits, the most famous of which is "The Legend of the White Snake".
White and gray immortals are not commonly seen and have gradually disappeared from folklore.
The Five Immortals Formation that the old man mentioned is an evil formation that uses five kinds of evil creatures that can become spirits or monsters as the core of the formation.
Minglu thought for a moment, wondering if the furry thing that had attacked her earlier was a fox or a weasel? The spirit snake that had entered Nie Yuchen's body was naturally the Snake Immortal among the Five Immortals.
That's quite interesting.
Unfortunately, it couldn't withstand her attack.
A mocking smile played on her lips as she looked at the squeaking animal hiding in the shadows, using the sunlight streaming in.
It really was just a few foxes and rats.
Not far from the foxes and rats, there was an old man with white hair.
The old man was dressed in a moon-white robe, wearing a Taoist robe, with his hair tied in a bun, and holding a whisk in his hand, looking like a Taoist immortal.
Minglu looked at him and really thought she had traveled through time.
No, she had already traveled through time.
She smiled.
"Your formation is so-so, it's not hard to break."
"These pets aren't any good either, they're mediocre."
"If you think you can subdue me with such limited skills, you're just dreaming."
The old man was furious, and a cold glint flashed in his worldly-wise eyes.
"Very well, the last person to talk to me like that is already buried in the ground. Let's see how much ability you have to talk so arrogantly."
The old man got into position, and with just a slight raise of his arm, the sky seemed to darken a bit.
A gust of cold wind swept up, carrying several pieces of paper that wrapped around Mingluo's body.
Suddenly, a pile of cloth nearby moved, and a weak voice came from inside.
"President Ming, be careful. This is someone from the Ji family of Jiangbei. They specialize in illusion magic. We just fell for their illusion magic."
The one who spoke was an old-school Taoist who had come in with Master Lin.
Mingluo became cautious.
These past few days, I've been in contact with Fang Zhengqi and have learned about some old-school esoteric practices.
They are similar to some sects in the divine realm that do not leave the mountains, each possessing unique skills in their ceremonial regalia.
Illusion, when used skillfully in the realm of gods, can be deadly. It can penetrate people's hearts and awaken what they fear most, what they are most terrified of, and what they are most obsessed with.
Many enlightened and saintly gods are often defeated by illusions.
I wonder how skilled this old man really is.
At this moment, she also realized that the yin wind was carrying several illusory talismans.
It seems that Old Man Ji needs props to use illusion magic, while the Five Immortals beside him, with their eyes half-closed, are opening and closing their mouths, clearly cooperating with Old Man Ji.
She looked at Nie Yuchen and said calmly, "I'll deal with him. You go and save the people!"
"Okay, take care of yourself." Nie Yuchen quickly crept into the corner to prepare to rescue the person.
"Um!"
Minglu responded and quickly took out a stack of talismans.
Several talismans protected Nie Yuchen as she forced back more than a dozen henchmen, causing them to bounce up and fall against the wall, knocking them unconscious.
The other talismans broke through the yin wind, quickly dissipating the talisman emanating spiritual power that was entangled in the yin wind into ashes.
Old Man Ji was furious. He bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Go!"
Several evil creatures also opened their mouths, and wisps of black gas emerged from them.
It seems that the black mist is the source of the white fog downstairs.
The case is solved!
Minglu sneered and decisively released the Golden Silkworm Gu.
Sensing danger, the evil creatures scattered and leaped away.
The golden silkworm gu relentlessly pursued them, causing chaos as chickens flew, dogs barked, and snakes and rats scurried about.
Old Man Ji's expression changed drastically. Without the help of those guardian spirits, the effectiveness of his illusion magic was greatly reduced.
In his anxiety, he roared, "How long are you going to wait? If you don't act now, it will be too late!"
From the shadows, a few more people stepped forward.
Mingluo sensed a very strong aura emanating from these people.
One of them exuded an aura of immortality, though he was far from achieving true immortality, he was already far ahead of his contemporaries.
After a quick calculation, Mingluo became cautious.
This person lived to be over two hundred years old.
This method of saving one's life seems quite extraordinary.
The group exchanged glances and then attacked simultaneously.
A powerful force, mixed with illusions, spells, and an evil aura, rushed towards Mingluo.
The wind howled, and the world changed color.
Mingluo was instantly enveloped.
Several men, their faces beaming with satisfaction, stroked their beards and spoke arrogantly.
"It has an empty reputation, and it seems to be nothing special."
"Don't underestimate her; she's quite good among the younger generation."
"It's a pity that they insist on being our enemy. The Xuanmen Association has controlled the Xuanmen for so many years. They should have given up their position long ago and let the capable person take it."
