Chapter 361 "Monster Hunt"
In the vast night, a palm-high wooden man was suspended in the air, looking up at a chair somewhere.
There was a vague figure on the chair, the figure was so light that it seemed transparent.
"Your subordinate... respectfully welcomes the Holy Master." The wooden man slowly bowed.
"You and I are just our own Dharmakāya puppets, so there's no need for King Mu to be so polite." The shadow said calmly.
"Although they are not the real bodies, we still have to distinguish between the superiors and the inferiors." The wooden man's attitude was also very respectful.
This wooden man is naturally the Wooden King, and the only person in the world who can make the Wooden King so respectful is that person.
The Demon Sect's Feather Emperor and Yanyue Sect's Leader were reborn.
“Haha.” The shadow laughed loudly and said, “Now that you have transformed the Fuhuang demon body into a puppet, and possessed this greatest body of all time, your strength may far exceed mine. I’m afraid the previous hierarchy will be reversed.”
"I dare not." The wooden man lowered his head, paused, and said softly: "At least I dare not do it now..."
"Oh?" The shadow's eyes turned.
"Although the transformation of Fuhuang's demonic body was successful, it is extremely difficult to control. At present, I can only control 60% of its power. If it is more, it will be out of control. And your Yuhua magic skill will be perfected soon, and then you will undoubtedly be the most powerful in the world. Even if Chen Fuhuang's body is resurrected, he will still be able to fight. How dare I, relying on this demonic body puppet with only 60% of its power, reverse the hierarchy with you, the master?"
Mu Ren analyzed it carefully.
The shadow couldn't help but chuckle and nodded: "It's well-reasoned and convincing."
Then, he changed the subject: "What I mean is...if I can't practice the Feathering Divine Art, or if you completely control the Demon Body Puppet, then you are willing to sit on the position of the leader?"
The wooden man was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Master, let's not talk about these hurtful things for now, okay?"
"Hahaha!" The shadow laughed even more happily. "That's right, I like your honesty, King Mu. I promise you, if one day my cultivation is not as good as yours, I will let you take the position of leader! But at this moment, I am still stronger, so you should listen to my orders, right?"
"Of course." The wooden man bowed deeply.
"I heard that the Huaxu Secret Realm has been closed, and the team sent by the Seven Families of Tiannan was massacred. Then, have you found the Immortal Phoenix Gall that I asked you to get?" asked the phantom.
"If you want to obtain treasures from the Huaxu Secret Realm, you must go through the projection. This is also the reason why I opened the Huaxu Secret Realm. I can only wait for the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder in the secret realm to be released before snatching it. This was my original plan..."
The wooden man hesitated for a moment before continuing.
"It's just very unfortunate that the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder was handed over to a very difficult person."
"King Mu, you now control the demon body of Fuhuang. In terms of combat power, you are considered to be in the upper reaches among the immortals on earth. Even if you fight against Li Maoqing again, you will not necessarily lose. Now, is there anyone who you find difficult to deal with?" the phantom asked again.
"To be precise, the one who got the Fairy Phoenix Gallbladder was a little goblin, who herself was not very troublesome. But she happened to live in a Taoist temple in the south of the Yangtze River. There was a little Taoist priest in that temple, who was a person I couldn't figure out. Last time, I tried to use many forces to plot against him, but in the end I was killed easily..." The wooden man shook his head.
"oh……"
The shadow understood, "From what you said, it's the little Taoist priest who killed Lord Canghai in Shenluo City?"
"It's this person." The wooden man nodded.
"But the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder is of great use to me, I can't give it up so easily..."
The wooden man said, "Since the leader has given the order, I dare not give up. I just asked a professional team to take action... and try to obtain the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder without alerting the little Taoist priest. As for helping Lord Canghai to avenge his death... we will talk about it later."
"That's good. It's unnecessary to avenge Lord Canghai." The phantom snorted coldly.
"I just learned not long ago that he had initiated the Shenluo City plot for his own selfish reasons, and actually contacted the descendants of the Yin family. The condition for the descendants of the Yin family to take action was that Lord Canghai would tell them the news about the Yin Emperor and help them welcome the Yin Emperor back..."
"There is such a thing?" The wooden man was also a little surprised. "Welcome back the Yin Emperor? He is betraying his own people. Moreover... the Yin Emperor has been missing for so many years, how can he still be alive?"
"hehe……"
The shadow sneered twice.
"In fact, it's okay to tell you. Lord Canghai got the news from me. As everyone knows, the reason why my position as the Demon Sect Emperor has never been legitimate is because I can't control the Demon Emperor's token, the Origin Demon Heart Jade."
"The reason why the Beginning Demon Heart Jade refused to recognize me as its master is actually because its previous owner, the Yin Emperor, has never died. Even more than a decade ago, the Yin Emperor once sent a faint thought through the Beginning Demon Heart Jade..."
"There is such a thing..." The wooden man was surprised.
"The Yin Emperor and the First Demon Heart Jade are connected in spirit, and a thousand miles is just a thought away. But after so long, the thought sent back only contained one word, which shows how deeply he is trapped."
"What is that word?" Mu Ren asked curiously.
"well."
…
The wind in the south of the Yangtze River gradually became moister, and the hillside path also had some bright colors.
The little koi walked alone on the way to school, and his steps were much more cheerful.
The fox girl was studious and often arrived at school first, but she liked to stay in bed and was always late, so their school times often didn't match.
In the distance there were still some "moon worshippers" chanting something to the little koi.
But she no longer worries about it.
As Li Chu said, "It's normal to be watched by people when you're walking on the street. There's nothing to worry about. Just get used to it."
She is already a mature koi.
After returning to Deyun Temple, the little koi followed the instructions of the spirit and held the fairy phoenix gallbladder and exhaled for an hour every night before going to bed. After practicing, he always felt comfortable all over.
Although she was not very proficient in the practice, she felt that she was getting smarter.
This is definitely a big treasure.
But the little koi had no idea that in the darkness not far away, several evil eyes were watching him...
"Master, the target is approaching the formation." A white-faced Taoist priest with bright eyes and a slightly plump figure reported in a low voice.
Next to him, there was another burly Taoist priest who also said in a competitive tone: "It is estimated that the target will fall into the net in 500 steps, and he has not noticed anything wrong yet."
"knew……"
On the tree branch next to the two young Taoist priests, an old Taoist priest wearing a black round hat and two tufts of goatee responded lazily, slowly opened his eyes and yawned.
"Think of me, Master Fu Yao. I have traveled across the country for many years and have captured evil demon kings, dragon and phoenix cubs more than 800 times without fail. This little carp with shallow cultivation is really not interesting to me."
"Yes, yes, it's a waste of Master's talent to deal with this little carp. How about letting me do it for you this time?" The white-faced Taoist said with a flattering smile.
"Yes! Disciple also wants to share Master's worries!" The burly Taoist priest immediately followed suit.
"You wish!"
With a whoosh, the Demon-Subduing Master landed on the ground in the blink of an eye and slapped each of his two disciples on the top of their heads with one hand each.
Pah pah.
"The reason why I still accepted it even though it was not challenging, isn't it because the customer gave too much this time?" Master Fu Yao said unhappily, "If I let you two take action, what if you fail at the first try and alarm the target? The customer said that this little carp is easy to deal with, but her owner is quite powerful!"
"It's because we are not skilled enough and don't think things through." The two apprentices hurriedly held their heads and apologized.
The Demon-Subduing Master flicked his sleeves, his eyes shone, and he could immediately see the situation several miles away.
This old Taoist priest did have some background. He was a disciple of the Fengzheng Sect among the Twelve Immortal Sects and was considered to be a gifted person. However, he was caught by the elders of the sect for reselling his demon slaves for profit and was expelled from the sect.
After he wandered around the world, he still relied on his previous skills to capture monsters and sell them, calling himself the Demon-Fighting Master. Over time, he made a name for himself in the world and had some commendable achievements.
Gradually, many people would ask him to help them capture any monsters. He could not handle it alone, so he took in two apprentices to form a professional team.
This time he came to Jiangnan, he was commissioned by a mysterious customer to catch a small carp with little cultivation.
As long as it is done covertly, this business will be easy.
"Attract wealth and treasure, prepare to activate the formation!" Master Fu Yao suddenly shouted.
"yes!"
The two disciples responded in unison.
Then they each took out a red thread in their hands, and they intertwined them in their hands, and in less than a moment they had formed a net.
Zhaocai and Jinbao looked at each other and said, "You spit blood."
"You spit."
"You spit..."
"Hurry up!" Master Fu Yao urged unhappily.
The white-faced Taoist priest named Zhaocai immediately said, "He's so handsome that he's about to vomit blood!"
When the burly Taoist priest named Jinbao heard this, he immediately bit his tongue and spat a mouthful of blood onto the red rope net.
call out.
The red rope net emits a faint glow, as if it has spirituality.
At the same time, a little koi fish in the distance was walking across an open space, not noticing at all that the dust under its feet was vibrating slightly, and a grid-like mark appeared on the flat ground.
After walking through the open space, there seemed to be nothing unusual, but her shadow disappeared...
Looking back along the way, the shadow was left in the same place, in that net! "Get up!"
The Demon-Subduing Master shouted, took the red rope net with five fingers of one hand, and was about to cast a spell to drag the shadow over.
This magical power was created by him himself and is called "Wind-Catching Shadow Array".
As long as you can catch someone's shadow, you can drag its body over effortlessly. If a monster is hit by this trick, it will be useless no matter how fast it runs.
"Hehe, come here!" The Demon-Subduing Master grinned fiercely and exerted force with his finger gestures!
Just when success seemed imminent, unexpectedly, dark clouds suddenly gathered on the clear spring morning.
The sunlight was blocked out, and everything within a few miles was shrouded in shadow.
The light in front of him dimmed, and Master Fu Yao suddenly cried out in his heart that something was wrong!
You know, the only weakness of his magical power is that it is afraid of cloudy days. Because once the sun is gone, all the shadows will merge into one. What's more terrible is that he happened to be using his magical power at this time...
It was as if he was just carrying a little girl on his back, but suddenly he turned into a mountain !
A stream of blood spurted out, and Master Fu Yao took two steps back, almost falling down. The red ropes on his hands broke with a snap.
“Master!” “Master!”
Two disciples immediately came over to support him.
"I'm fine..."
After all, Master Fu Yao had a high level of cultivation, so he quickly adjusted his breathing and stood up again. Then, he looked up at the sky with a confused look on his face.
"It's really weird. The sky was clear one moment and it was covered with dark clouds the next. What kind of weird weather is this?" he said puzzled.
"Maybe...the weather in Jiangnan is like this..." Zhaocai scratched his head and said.
"unlucky!"
Master Fu Yao cursed and looked around, "This is a gloomy and windless day, perfect for using the Three Yaos Ecstasy Incense!"
"yes!"
The Demon-Subduing Master sat cross-legged. Two of his disciples, one took out three long incense sticks wrapped with yellow talismans and inserted them in front of him, while the other lit a candle.
A little green smoke slowly emerged.
The Demon Subduing Master changed seals with his hands, pointed forward, and shouted, "Go!"
Following his command, the green smoke no longer went up, but flew rapidly in the direction of his finger.
The effect of this three-line soul-bewitching incense is extremely strong. As long as you inhale a trace of it at the tip of your nose, it will immediately penetrate your soul. The person who is hit by the incense will immediately lose all consciousness and be unconsciously controlled by the caster.
It is indeed a must-have medicine for home travel and human trafficking.
"Here!" Master Fu Yao shouted again.
The green smoke looked like a long rope that was about to wrap around the little koi.
But I didn’t expect that there would be such a sudden storm at this moment!
A gust of wind suddenly blew from west to east, whistling past!
"ah--"
The little Koi screamed in surprise. The heavy skirt she was wearing was blown up by the wind! Fortunately, the weather was not yet warm, and she had long pants under her skirt, which avoided the risk of exposure.
He quickly quickened his pace and walked towards the school ahead.
It's no big deal that she's blinded by the wind.
Over there.
The faint green smoke from the incense could not withstand the strong wind, and it immediately covered the face of the Demon Subduing Master. He immediately took a big puff! Then the whole person was motionless.
"Hey? What's wrong with Master?" In the strong wind, Jinbao caught a glimpse of Master Fu Yao and saw that something was wrong, and asked hurriedly.
"Master, could it be that you have inhaled the San Yao Soul-Loving Incense yourself?" Zhaocai said.
"What will happen then?" Jinbao asked.
“The person who is struck by the incense will completely lose his mind and obey the control of the caster… But if the caster is the one who is struck by the incense, then the caster will lose his mind and will not be able to issue any instructions… Then the person who is struck by the incense will not do anything…” Zhaocai analyzed the situation and finally came to the conclusion: “Master has crashed!”
"Ah?" Jinbao asked in surprise, "What should we do then?"
"At this time... you should try to hit him on the head." Zhaocai said: "Go ahead and hit him."
"What? Why don't you go!" Jinbao glared.
"It takes a lot of force to wake up the master! I'm not as strong as you, it won't work." Zhaocai said.
Jinbao came to the back of Master Fuyao with doubt and slapped him. Just like Master Fuyao had hit them just now, he slapped them hard! Snap! There was a dull sound.
The Demon-Subduing Master immediately jumped up in pain, turned around, and kicked Jinbao several feet away!
"You traitor, do you want to murder your master?" He rubbed the back of his head and roared.
Jinbao pointed at his senior brother and said, "Zhaocai asked me to beat him!"
Zhaocai waved his hands quickly, "I only asked you to wake up the master, but I didn't ask you to take the opportunity to vent your anger."
“I’m so pissed off!”
Master Fu Yao rubbed his head and said angrily:
"This wind is just like it was blown up from the ground, and it can be so fierce. It's really weird."
"What bad luck!"
