Chapter 56: Entering the Demon Country and Taking Action



The young Taoist's spirit, with the help of the power of the Exorcist Institute, rushed to the Heavenly Palace. As a warrior of the Exorcist Institute, the young Taoist appeared directly in the Exorcist Institute. Tianyou Great True Lord was on duty today. He raised his eyes slightly and said, the calmest among the North Pole Saints: "What are you doing here, you devil?"

The young Taoist bowed and told the story of what had just happened.

Then he said: "If the rain in the Heavenly Palace is not required by a large formation, it should not be considered a violation of the Heavenly Rules, right?"

Tianyou Dazhenjun said, "In other words, you want to use your Tiandi money to ask the water god or rain master to help bring rain?"

Qi Wuhuo nodded.

Great True Lord Tianyou lowered his head, took out a jade scroll, and said calmly: "From the ninth rank right judge, you are already an immortal official. In the past hundred years, you have 5,000 pieces of Heavenly Emperor coins, as well as elixirs and many other items. They are all in the list. You want to borrow the cloud beast, rain master, and thunderbird, which requires 1,000 pieces of Heavenly Emperor coins, which is more than enough."

"How extensive is the rain?"

The young Taoist said in a calm voice, "Jinzhou."

Great True Lord Tianyou's movements paused.

He looked up at the young Taoist in front of him, and then said calmly: "A state is so large, with tens of millions of people and countless common people. It will rain for one night, and it will cost 100,000 Tiandi coins. Your merits are not enough, and in the Exorcism Institute, it is not allowed to advance the merits and virtues."

The voice paused, and he took out something and threw it to the young Taoist:

"I'll lend it to you on a personal basis."

"Give it back to me when you have it."

The young Taoist originally planned to look for Uncle Niu to get the money from the Emperor of Heaven that he had obtained in exchange for the spells, but he did not expect that the Great True Lord would give him the money.

Taking the item with both hands, Tianyou Great True Lord remained silent in astonishment. He knew that if the merits of the young man in front of him were not suppressed, he could have taken out the money from the Emperor of Heaven at this moment. It was just that the disciples of the Three Pure Ones needed to go through more tests to hone themselves when serving in the Heavenly Court. The more they got, the more they had to bear. Now that they had inherited the Three Pure Ones' Taoism, they had to bear more hardships.

The name of the Three Pure Ones is not something to show off.

This is the rule set by Jade Pure Great Celestial Venerable herself.

So he just said briefly: "It is useless for me to ask for the Emperor's money."

"In addition, Taibai is out of danger and his spirit has calmed down."

"At least I saved my life."

The boy's eyes lit up and he looked delighted.

Tianyou Great True Lord smiled and said, "When you have time, you can come to heaven to visit him."

"But not now. He still needs to rest for a while."

"Okay, go out now. Remember to walk outside and don't use your identity as a member of the Exorcist Court. You are now a ninth-rank immortal official in the North Pole Ziwei Palace in the sky. Since you don't have armor or weapons, I will temporarily give you a civilian identity."

After Qi Wuhuo expressed his gratitude, he continued to walk along the path of the Heavenly Palace. The place was so big that even though Great True Lord Tianyou had told him the location of the Water Department, he still couldn't find it. After much difficulty, he found the Water Department and an immortal official asked him about his purpose. Only then did he meet many rain masters and water officials in the Water Department. From Jinzhou, they sent a Thunder God, a Lightning Goddess, and other gods of clouds and rain to go together.

Lei Gong said: "I never thought that someone would ask us to make rain just for Jinzhou."

He was very polite. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the young Taoist, letting him step on the clouds.

The young Taoist seemed to be walking on empty air and was about to fall down at the next moment, but the cloud was rolling, which cleverly dispersed the weight of the young Taoist. With the help of the changes in Yuan Qi, the cloud was made more resilient, and the energy of thunder was running through it, enabling it to soar and fly.

The young Taoist experienced the art of riding on clouds for the first time and gained a profound understanding.

"Hasn't it rained in the past?"

"Of course it rains. Without rain, yin and yang cannot rotate normally."

"Our duty is to maintain the changes of yin and yang, and to make it rain."

"But Jinzhou is too hot. Coming here is tiring. It rains a lot here and in other places, but other places can handle it. Now in Jinzhou, only 50% of the water is left on the ground, and the water that can be retained here will be reduced by another 70%. So day by day, year by year, it becomes like this."

"Haha, if you hadn't offered this price today, we wouldn't have come here."

"If we want freedom in this world, then we will not be protected by heaven."

The Lightning Mother smiled and said, "In the early days, Emperor Haotian established the Penglai Division and the Water Department to ensure favorable weather and good harvests."

"But later on, we didn't want the Heavenly Court to take care of the affairs of the human world, and we were happy and free."

"Besides, water vapor will naturally rise and fall in the sky and on earth. This is the law of all things. We will only add some rain when the yin and yang are out of balance. But this star official, I also want to tell you that your compassion and great efforts in sending down rain can only protect them for a period of time. It is only a temporary solution, not a permanent one."

"It's not a long-term solution."

The young nodded.

The old land god saw that the young Taoist had his eyes closed and was in doubt. Not long after, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the sky, dark clouds rolled in, and there were several thunders. The air was filled with the smell of water. The old land god's beard was flipped up by the moist wind, and with a few loud bangs, raindrops as big as beans fell and hit the old land god's face.

The heat above the earth suddenly rolled up and spread, colliding with the water vapor. It was clearly raining heavily, but the world was cheering as if it was New Year's Day. Adults and children hurried back home, brought out buckets, basins, and gray ceramic bowls and cups to catch the rain from the sky.

“It’s raining!”

“It’s raining!”

“What a heavy rain!”

Everyone cheered. The old land god looked at the sky in disbelief, his eyes wide open. He couldn't help but feel happy like a child. He turned around and looked at the young Taoist sitting under the tree. The little peacock just flapped its wings slightly, and a blazing golden flame rose up, evaporating the falling rain water. The young Taoist slowly opened his eyes.

Falling from heaven to earth.

I saw countless water lines falling into the earth, and above the earth, a fiery breath like fire still remained.

Like water and fire.

Like planting thousands of acres of lotus in the fire!

The young Taoist priest stood up and opened his arms, laughing to welcome the rain from the sky, just like dry land waiting for the heavy rain to fall. He laughed and then started crying, just like countless people in Jinzhou. He turned around and looked at the young Taoist priest, only to see that the young Taoist priest was standing next to the old tree in the center of the village.

There are some similar traces on the roots of this tree.

The old land god was stunned, and suddenly his eyes widened. In the rain, he couldn't see the person clearly, but he seemed to see the young Taoist. It was clearly a naughty boy a few years ago. He was also brought here every year by his family to compare heights, leaving some traces. The land god's expression changed slightly, and he murmured: "You are..."

"Qi Siyi?!"

"No, no, you are his grandson?!"

The young Taoist priest slightly bowed and did not answer, as if he was one of the generations living in this village.

It was as if in a trance and a dream. When the old land god ran over, he could not see the figure of the young Taoist. Only heavy rain was falling, covering the sky and the earth. It was gloomy. The rain fell into the river, and the dry land recovered. The young Taoist had walked to the front of the yard and looked at his home. He used his magical power to cover up his collapsed yard.

So others could no longer see or get in, and his fingers were lightly pressing against a bluestone.

The young Taoist suddenly murmured and stretched out his hand to write down some words.

"My father Qi Shijing and my mother Zhu Qixia were buried here in their full attire."

"Son, Qi has no doubts."

"The Great Mysterious ..."

"stand."

The words on the stone tablet were like the dream he had forgotten at this moment. When the young Taoist wrote the last stroke, he looked at the world. The earth was steaming, but water was falling from the sky like water falling into fire. He stood in the changes of heaven and earth, feeling the joy of the people and the happiness of their souls. He also saw the actions of the water god and the thunder god.

He wrote the last stroke of the word "Li" and then dropped his fingers.

【stand】.

A point of primordial spirit light, like the god of thunder and the god of water, walked through the clouds and rain in the sky and fell to the earth.

Also fell down along with the soul and body.

Fall into the Qi Cauldron in the middle Dantian.

The young Taoist stood up, bowed slightly to his past and his hometown, and said softly in the falling rain:

"Dad, Mom."

"This time, my son is really gone."

“This time, I’m ready.”

He seemed to vaguely remember the things in the dream of Yuanshi Tianzun's trial. He turned around, his sleeves clean, and walked away in the joy of the people in the world. He felt that his soul had naturally separated and fell into his own Qi Ding, just like rain falling on the earth, and he murmured softly:

"If you don't know the mystery of the upside down, how can you know that it is good to plant lotus in the fire?"

"Take the white tiger home and raise it."

"The pearl is like the full moon."

The white tiger represents the primordial spirit, and the bright pearl represents pure yang.

Watching the rain falling from heaven and earth, you will know that water enters into fire.

Therefore, [Moving the Tripod]

It's done.

The young Taoist returned to the team without anyone noticing, and he controlled his breath very well.

At the cultivation level, he naturally moved from the initial stage of Qi refining to [Moving the Cauldron], which means he embarked on the path of human immortality. This step wrapped the soul with Qi, and naturally, the aura became more restrained. King Qin had gradually become accustomed to the whereabouts of the young Taoist, but he was still startled by the sudden appearance of the young Taoist, and said: "Sir, your aura seems to be more restrained."

"Um."

The young Taoist replied, "It's just a slight breakthrough."

The King of Qin did not ask any more questions. He just stood by the window and looked outside. Every household brought out basins of water. Looking at the city of Jinzhou, the rain washed away all the dust and finally restored the tranquility of the past with its flourishing flowers. He said, "All along the way, I saw people with stern faces. When I came here, it rained and people finally became happy."

“What a nice rain.”

"What a timely rain! If I were in the capital, I would definitely build a statue for the god of rain and offer incense to him."

The young Taoist said, "It only treats the symptoms but not the root cause."

“But it doesn’t have to be like this.”

The King of Qin originally wanted to share his joy, but he never expected to receive such an answer.

After thinking for a while, he answered seriously: "Sir, even if you are the sir, I still want to refute you. This rain is very important. It really solved the urgent needs of many people and saved countless lives. Why is it not necessary to do this? Not only do I have to do this, I also have to do the immortal ranking. This is what I should do after doing good things..."

The young Taoist looked at him and replied:

"Because I ordered it."

The King of Qin's voice suddenly stopped.

? !!!!!!

Like a wooden chicken.

Qi Wuhuo walked past the stiff King Qin and looked at the night view outside the window. The people on the road were happy, so the young Taoist priest couldn't help but smile. His mind was lively and happy, but he was tempering himself in the Qi Ding. If the two were tempered into one, he could cultivate the Yang God. Every step needs to be solid and must be taken step by step. It cannot be achieved overnight.

The moonlight is clear, the difference between humans and gods, the undercurrent in heaven, and the disaster of the demon clan.

The young Taoist looked calm.

He closed the window and walked past the dumbstruck young King Qin again, his voice flat:

"We need to be careful when we enter the demon country tomorrow."

"Don't show any flaws."

It seemed that the sudden heavy rain and the aura of immortals in the sky made the big demon leading the team feel oppressed. Although the immortals who were in charge of making it rain were not warriors and might not be able to defeat the big demon in a real fight, the heavens represented a majestic murderous intent that could not be challenged.

However, the big demon can only feel at ease if the Heavenly Court does not care about what happens in the mortal world.

But even so, he urged to move forward quickly. The young Taoist looked at the huge crack. He had seen his master walk into the crack before, and he was able to come back. He felt sad and nostalgic, but his soul had been put into the Qi Ding, and his emotions were restrained and calm. He still looked like a dull and quiet monster.

In an instant, he stepped into the crack.

Using this means similar to teleportation, they arrived at the territory of the demon clan. This place seemed to be not much different from the human world, with small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, and towers. Demons came and went, and the clothes they wore were different from those of ordinary people. There were also demons lined up, in charge of this place, inspecting this so-called human delegation.

The young Taoist restrained himself, his soul was dim, and he walked over calmly. The magic arrays of the demon tribe could not detect his transformation skills. Until now, King Qin's heart finally relaxed. He had been a little worried along the way, wondering whether Mr. Qi Wuhuo's transformation skills could pass the test of the demon tribe. Although his heart was relieved now, his expression remained unchanged.

Just let everyone pass the levels and formations here.

There were no problems.

The young Taoist narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing the subtle differences between this world and the human world, but he didn't know where this place was in the demon country. From afar, he could see the bright and warm sunshine and the distant sky. He could faintly smell the scent of some demons, which was a little pungent.

The demon clan's territory is extremely large, so this means they are close to the location of the so-called Great Saint's ritual.

So follow the guidance and see where the Great Sage is...

all the best.

At this moment, there was a burst of noisy sounds, and everyone's faces changed. They saw a small child moving back and forth among the transformed monsters. Their faces turned slightly pale, and they had the aura of a human. The monster behind them was furious, like a pig with red hair and fangs, holding an axe in one hand and a broken chain in the other, and said angrily:

"Human slave, you dare to run away!!!"

"Today, I will sell you to the market and eat you up!"

The child was barefoot, staggering, with a chain on his right ankle, and his face was pale and frightened.

How could he avoid the pig demon? The axe was chopped down, with a ferocious look in his eyes. The young Taoist paused for a moment. If he continued to move forward, he would have the chance to get close to the ritual of the great demon king's enthronement. But he finally sighed. The axe was chopped down, and the surrounding demons were just there to watch the show, no different from the powerful people in the human world who saw someone killing Kunlun slaves.

The little child's face was pale and his eyes were filled with horror. He saw the axe was suddenly knocked away, and the pig demon staggered backward. The child seemed to have finally found a life-saving straw and tightly grasped the hem of the young Taoist's clothes. The group of demons looked and saw a rhinoceros demon with a dark face and faint signs of cracks, standing in front of the human slave with a fork in one hand.

Qi Wuhuo still maintained the dull appearance of a demon, and spoke in the words that Uncle Niu had taught him in a strong demon accent:

"Killing him, what a pity."

"I'll buy it."

"I bought it... This is not impossible."

The pig demon looked at his hand. His axe was stabbed away by the rhino demon's fork. The rhino demon could kill him with just a lift of his hand. So he said, "This is a very important person. You have to give me ten, no, one hundred Heavenly Emperor coins."

Qi Wuhuo raised his eyes and was about to speak when suddenly a domineering voice came: "Get out!!!"

A sound of breaking air was heard.

The pig demon was whipped away, and the wolf demon who led the way appeared here, his eyes widened, grinning:

"My subordinates cannot possibly have such strength!"

"What you just used was not the magical power of the rhino demon at all!"

"Isn't it one of those Taoist priests? They specialize in the art of deceiving the eyes. They have no tricks, they just deceive people. I didn't even notice it."

"Okay, did you sneak in with the humans? I feel like there's something fishy going on, so I'll search these humans one by one later!"

This great demon was extremely experienced and had sensed the clues in an instant. The young Taoist glanced at the King of Qin, who reacted quickly. His eyes changed slightly, he reined in his horse and drew his sword, pointing it at Qi Wuhuo, and angrily said, "Okay, it's you guys from the Taoist Alliance again, right? You came to kill us before, and you dare to sneak in today!"

"Form a formation and teach them a lesson!"

He looked at the big demon again and sneered: "And you!"

"How come among your subordinates there are those rebellious Taoists who attacked us?!"

"I will tell the Great Sage!"

The wolf demon never expected that the young human King Qin would directly retort and speak harshly.

He wanted to refute, but this person had turned into his own monster, and it was difficult to refute for a while. Accompanied by roars of beasts, the many demon cultivators and war troops who were waiting here to participate in the ceremony rushed directly over. They all had cultivation, riding on the bloodline of exotic beasts that had not been transformed into monsters, wearing heavy armor, and were full of murderous aura.

The young Taoist looked calm.

Perhaps it would be a safer approach to not rescue the child and go find the Monkey King to avoid any setbacks.

But he came to find the Great Sage because he felt the hatred for the deaths of the people back then was unforgettable and he only wanted to save people. If he watched the child being killed in order to achieve his goal, then how would he be different from the Human Emperor who watched everything happen and took advantage of it to achieve his goal?

No matter how small the evil is, it can lead to destruction in just one step.

Hence the name “cultivation”. Practice and hold on to it, do not let go.

The child trembled, and the young Taoist touched the child's hair with his warm palm, smiled, and said softly, just like when the Master picked him up that year: "Don't be afraid."

The fork in his hand suddenly changed and turned into an ordinary whisk.

Then he swept the whisk, and three thousand silver threads spread out in an instant, directly hooking the neck of the big monster with a move of his wrist.

Three thousand silver threads were all robbed and killed!

The wolf demon's head flew into the sky.

The blood flowed three feet high, and a murderous aura suddenly rose.

"Since you have already breached the contract and betrayed me, I will no longer hold back."

However, the heavily armored cavalry of the demon race formed a force similar to luck and demon souls, and charged towards the young Taoist priest. The leader was also very powerful, a Pixiu in human form, and shouted angrily: "You are a sneaky human villain, die now!!!"

The arrogance was overwhelming, the black clouds were rolling, as if it had turned into an incomparable strange beast that was biting down with a cold murderous aura.

The rhinoceros demon transformed into a handsome young Taoist priest.

The young Taoist swept his whisk and took a half step forward lightly. The huge amount of Qi suddenly dispersed and pressed down. As a result, all the demon soldiers in a whole street were forced to kneel on the ground, roaring incessantly, and smoke and dust surged into the sky.

The whisk fell, swept across the place, and then rested on the arm.

The young Taoist priest was surrounded by demons, holding the child who was called a "human slave" and speaking in a cold and calm voice:

"I am a poor Taoist monk, and I have no doubts about the square inch mountain."

"Everyone, please."
