"Mukui?"
The owner of the Dark Red Mountains, who was discussing with his men about further expanding the borders of the 'Past Mountains', looked a little surprised after sensing the breath of the wooden Taoist priest.
The Woodcarving Taoist is an outlier in their group. This guy was not at a high level when he was first born, but his strength has increased rapidly in the past few years. Not long ago, he even reached the threshold of the Emperor Realm. This is a relatively rare type among the calamity demons.
The owner of the Past Mountain, who knew the whole story, gave the Taoist woodcarver a place and made him a member of "Past Mountain".
But he didn't expect Mu Kui to show up so soon. Judging from the aura around him, it was obvious that he had suffered a serious injury.
"Even Mu Kui was severely injured. It seems that he encountered some difficult enemy."
After thinking about it, a smile appeared on the face of the mountain master.
He is not afraid of trouble, but he is afraid of not having the opportunity to do favors.
For the demons of their level, the most important thing is nothing more than two things. The first is to become an emperor, and the second is to break free from the shackles of the calamity and regain freedom. Both steps are difficult, even the top demons with a good reputation like the Mountain Master in the past could not do it. He was just half a step faster than everyone else on the road to becoming an emperor, and achieved the same semi-finished product as the Ghost Emperor.
But even if it is a semi-finished product, it is still an "Emperor"! Only those who have touched this level of power will understand the horror of the "Emperor" realm powerhouse. If there is no "Infinite Tribulation" suppression, an Immortal Emperor can flatten all the demons here.
In the past, the mountain master believed that now was a good opportunity to subdue Mu Kui.
The troubles of the other party were not taken seriously by the Mountain Master in the past. The purpose of the existence of these calamity demons was to destroy the order of the fairy world and destroy this era of fairy cultivation.
"I didn't expect this kid would have such an embarrassing day."
A blood-red demon with a calamity aura grinned and laughed. This person was named Peng Jiang, and he was the second strongest person in the Past Mountain Range after the Past Mountain Master.
Upon hearing this, the other demons all laughed in a gloating manner.
The Taoist Woodcarver had rejected the invitation of the Mountain Master, and declared that he would become an emperor and create a force as powerful as the Mountain Master. Many people present at the time had been taught a lesson by the Master, and were naturally very happy to see the Taoist Woodcarver in trouble.
"Did you run into any trouble, fellow Daoist?"
The past mountain master had a thought, and the wooden Taoist at the door was moved over instantly. This mountain range was part of the body of the past mountain master. He was the mountain god of the Eternal God Mountain in his lifetime. After being eliminated by the ancient god era, he had been sleeping in the long river of history. It was the arrival of the calamity that awakened him from the past.
The flying wooden Taoist felt a tightness in his heart at first, but then he reacted.
This is the magical power of teleportation used by the mountain master in the past.
As long as it is within the range of the "Past Mountains", the Lord of the Past Mountains is the absolute ruler. This is the characteristic of the innate gods. In that era, this group of innate gods relied on this innate ability to control the world and enslave all living beings.
If they had not later encountered the ancient gods who had extremely strong powers over them, perhaps the fairy world would still be under their control.
"I have indeed encountered a problem, and I hope the mountain master can help me."
The wooden Taoist took a deep breath, suppressed his former pride, and bowed his head to ask for help. The pressure from the weird old man was too strong. Only the former mountain master could deal with this kind of demon that seemed to be from the beginning of the world.
"No problem."
The mountain master narrowed his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He likes this feeling of "all the talents in the world are in my hands" the most. Only when he gathers enough strong people can he plan to escape the control of the calamity. Compared with this, troubles are just minor problems and are the necessary tests to obtain talents.
"Mountain Master, please be careful. This person may be a demon from the same era as you."
"No problem."
The mountain master waved his hand and said.
He was very confident in his own strength. Even in his era, there were not many innate gods who could rival him. Even if those old monsters of the same level were revived, they would give him face after seeing him. This was the confidence brought by his own strength.
"Since we have come to Gugu Mountain, we must follow the rules of the mountain owner." Peng Jiang next to him suddenly spoke up.
The Taoist woodcarver was silent for a moment after hearing this, then bowed his head and respectfully saluted to the former mountain master.
"Greetings to the mountain master."
"You're welcome."
The mountain master raised his hand and a force of energy lifted up the wooden Taoist priest. He also specially arranged a seat for him, and then continued speaking.
"Let me first tell you what happened and see which old friend has been revived."
“This story started five days ago.”
The wooden Taoist began to tell his story. From the revival of the "Land of Vitality" to the later encounter with the three burly demons and breaking through the cave barrier with them, the whole process was described in great detail. Even the process of being drained of power by the "Calamity" was not omitted.
"I know the three people you mentioned. They are powerful people from the Immortal Witch Era and I have crossed paths several times." Peng Jiang nodded beside him. He could distinguish the corresponding information with just a simple description. This was Peng Jiang's ability.
He draws strength from words.
".Until we broke through the barrier of the cave, and then we met that strange old man." When he said this, the wooden Taoist couldn't help but look back.
He still had lingering fears from the experience of the short demon being turned into a small pig by the black light. He had never seen such a magic that wiped out all cultivation and completely rewrote a person's life from soul to body.
"Brush away your cultivation?"
Listening to the description of the woodcarving Taoist priest, the mountain master frowned. He began to think about the abilities of several old friends. But after thinking around, he still couldn't find a corresponding fellow Taoist priest.
"The soul can also change? Maybe you saw it wrong."
Peng Jiang next to him felt something was wrong.
The description of the wooden Taoist priest was too incredible. The cultivation level can be changed, the body can also change, but the soul is unique. From the moment of birth, the soul has its own appearance. After so many years of cultivation, this is the first time he has heard of the immortal art of changing the "nature of the soul".
"I checked it carefully, and I'm sure I'm not mistaken."
The woodcarving Taoist said affirmatively.
At that time, he saw with his own eyes the tall and thin demon breaking the spell. If it was really a simple transformation, how could he be so shocked?
"The world is so big that nothing is impossible. It's nothing more than some special innate magical powers. Similar creatures are not uncommon in the ancient times."
The mountain master interrupted several people's speculations.
"What the mountain master said is true. In the final analysis, it is still a contest of strength. If that person dares to come to the mountain, we will attack together. With the mountain master's imperial realm cultivation to suppress him, no matter how many tricks the other party has, he will not be able to use them."
Upon hearing this, the other demons immediately stood up and responded.
While they were talking, the former mountain master on the high seat suddenly frowned.
boom!!
A huge explosion sounded from outside the mountain. Everyone felt the ground shake and subconsciously looked towards the source of the explosion.
Then a huge red sun appeared outside the mountains.
The 'time barrier' that the mountain master had set up outside was actually crushed and collapsed by this red sun. Several demons guarding the door were burned to ashes by this red sun before they could even make a sound.
"It runs pretty fast." (End of this chapter)
