The Ten Thousand Mountains are the main habitat of the demon race and also the main defense place of the Taoist sect. The twelve Taoist sects each send people to guard it.
In addition to the Ten Thousand Mountains, at this time, each village and town also had disciples from various Taoist temples or Taoist sects who came down the mountain to guard it.
I saw that fences had been erected around each village and town. The elderly, the weak, women and children hid in the cellars prepared in advance, and the young and middle-aged were also gathered together and patrolled everywhere with torches.
"Everyone, don't be afraid. It's just a mere evil spirit. With the Taoist priests here, it's easy to deal with."
The village chief was also holding a torch with a smile on his face.
"When the evil spirits come, listen to my instructions. Use the exorcism powder I gave you to climb up and use the knife in your hand to see. Don't be afraid. People are three parts afraid of ghosts, and ghosts are seven parts afraid of people. As long as you are fearless in your heart, it is these evil spirits that you should be afraid of."
The Taoist in Taoist robes also spoke with a smile.
For such a small village, it was already the limit for them to gather fifty or sixty young and strong men. Fortunately, their fellow apprentices had cleared the area nearby before and mobilized the villagers to clear the trees near the village. Now the area around the village was empty and the pressure was relatively small.
In addition to these villages, cities naturally did not dare to take it lightly at this time.
Even if there are runes on the city walls, the bigwigs, wealthy businessmen and powerful people in the city are naturally worried about their own safety.
That night, not only were the Taoists flying back and forth in the sky, but with their collaboration, the armies of the secular dynasties were also mobilized. Led by warriors, they led the troops to the wilderness, unleashed their qi and blood on the spot, killed human evil spirits, and relieved the pressure on the town.
In this situation, what if the emperors are unwilling?
It's not just one city that has been breached. If you don't obey orders at this time, you will be the one who suffers.
"Lord Luo, are we just going to let those Taoists bully us?"
On the top of a small town, a young man looked indignantly at the other side of the city in the distance, where a young Taoist priest was sitting quietly.
"It's amazing that Dao Palace is here!"
"Those who come from the Dao Palace are amazing!"
A young woman nearby sighed.
"Wang Er, don't be dissatisfied. The Twelve Dao Meridians dominate the world. Who in this world's dynasties doesn't want to be canonized by the Dao Palace?"
"Yuan Jing is right."
An old man with an old face looked at the young man beside him.
"Wang Er, don't say such things again. His Majesty ordered me to form the Spirit Exorcism Division and gather extraordinary people and events from all over the world. I know you have the ability, but you must be respectful of the Dao Palace."
As he spoke, Luo Xuan looked at the Taoist who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the city wall with his eyes closed, but his gaze was fixed on the ancient long sword placed across his legs.
This world belongs to Taoism!
Since Buddhism was driven to the West, the fertile land has been occupied by the Twelve Dao Meridians.
Sixty percent of the world's land is privately owned by the twelve Taoist sects, and the remaining ten percent is jointly governed by the Taoist Palace and the secular dynasty.
So in fact, 70% of the world is ruled by Taoism, and the world naturally belongs to Taoism.
"What's so great about that? I can also use thunder magic!"
Wang Er muttered.
He just refused to accept it. Why should the Twelve Meridians send him astray with just one sentence?
"Do you have the fundamental Dafa?"
In the distance, the young Taoist priest sitting cross-legged on the top of the city wall suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Wang Er calmly.
"Law? The law is controlled by you. Who else in the world, besides the Dao Sect, can have the fundamental law?"
Wang Er was sad and angry.
"If there is no Dharma, is it possible that you can prolong your life by practicing it?"
The young Taoist didn't care about his accusations.
“Without fundamental principles, how can one prolong life?”
Wang Er looked at him puzzledly.
"You said you knew thunder magic. What's the price? Judging from your bone age, you're only twenty-two or twenty-three, but the aura of your body suggests you're already thirty!"
The Taoist shook his head.
"You mean the Dharma is controlled by our Daoist sect? The Daoist elders and sages overcame all difficulties and realized the great Dao of Heaven and Earth, creating the Twelve Dao Meridians. Learning from Heaven and Earth, the Dharma is there, who can possess it alone?"
"Greetings, Taoist Master Yizhen."
Luo Xuan quickly saluted the young Taoist.
Yizhen is also a return gift.
"I am Yi Zhen from the Qisha Temple of White Tiger Mountain. Nice to meet this fellow cultivator."
Yizhen behaved in a gentle manner, without any of the coldness and arrogance of a sword cultivator.
"We Taoists follow the will of Heaven and cultivate to attain the Way and become immortals, not to be brave and aggressive, to trade our lives for power, or even to commit atrocities. Isn't this an unorthodox path?
However, in such a time of great change, you still stand up, well done!"
The magic spells practiced by unorthodox practitioners all have a price, so they are rarely used. Every time they are used, they will ask for a lot of benefits from others.
After all, there is no way to become an immortal, so one can only pursue worldly wealth and honor.
So at this time, when the evil spirit descended to the world, it was very commendable that Wang Er was able to stand up at this time.
This is also the reason why Yizhen is gentle towards him.
Wang Er was a little dissatisfied at first, but facing Yizhen's performance, he was unable to lose his temper.
"Master Yizhen, tonight..."
At this time, Luo Xuan was more concerned about the casualties tonight.
"This night is long!"
I really sighed.
Although he was a sword cultivator from the Qisha Temple in Baihu Mountain, he was alone and did not have the legendary ability to fly a sword and take someone's head from a thousand miles away.
"I can defend this city, but I can't kill all the evil spirits or annihilate all the zombies. Your Exorcism Department should have made preparations long ago."
Yizhen's words were full of confidence.
I am here to keep this city safe.
Luo Xuan heard this and nodded silently.
I feel a little sad.
If Yizhen can save this city tonight, what about the future? What about other places?
After tonight, Yizhen will definitely continue to kill the evil spirits and zombies scattered everywhere. By then, these villages and towns will still need their Exorcism Department to protect them.
In the past, he was always afraid that the Taoist priests would be too powerful and would threaten the imperial power.
But today, I sincerely hope that there will be more Taoists so that they can protect more people.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
In the past, those great Buddhist monks and virtuous people enjoyed all kinds of honors, but now they all stay indoors, which is really chilling.
At the same time, Luo Xuan understood that only if he had a strong fist could he not be afraid of any challenge.
The problem is that when the dynasty army faces evil spirits, they can rely on military formations to suppress them and then kill them.
However, when facing zombies, it costs a huge price to kill them.
If the numbers are large, the army may even be defeated.
Yizhen didn't care about the evil spirits attacking the city. What he was more afraid of were some unorthodox methods that would use evil spirits and ghosts to increase their strength, and even do something sad at this time.
There are many kinds of evil magic spells in the unorthodox sects, and the price to pay is also different, so there are people who harm their own kind. Although there are many Taoists who hunt them down, it is not uncommon to see such people who want to gain greater power.
This has been the case in the past and in peacetime, not to mention how many people will take advantage of the situation now that the Taoist sect is unable to take care of itself.
There won’t be a minority of such people anymore.
Some crazy people don't care how many casualties they will cause, they only care about whether they can gain powerful strength.
