Deep in the mountains and forests of Liaodong, Hu Sangu carefully led Yang Cheng to Wuxian Valley.
Aunt Hu also took some measures to cover it up. She found some animal pelts, burned them to ashes, and smeared them on her clothes, saying that this could cover up her "human presence".
These animal pelts were left behind by spirits and monsters from the mountains and fields that had developed intelligence and become sentient, so they naturally carry a demonic aura.
The Five Immortals Valley is located in a dense forest that is rarely visited by people. Normally, no one would come here. If Yang Cheng and his group came here in this way, they would be noticed before they even entered the Five Immortals Valley.
"You've been a shaman for so many years, you should know that shamans can empower those Jurchens. Is there any way to break this power?"
Yang Cheng asked.
Hu Sangu said cautiously, "The Jurchens have signed a blood oath of worship with the Five Immortals lineage, which is different from the shamanic practices of us who directly possess the spirits of others."
Because the Five Immortals used the Jurchen dragon vein for cultivation, it can be said that there was already a connection between the two sides through a trace of incense offerings.
Therefore, there is no need to divide the soul to descend; one can directly summon the blood pact to utilize the power of the Five Immortals.
If you wish to resolve the issues with the Five Immortals and the Jurchens, you must first sever their dragon vein source and completely eliminate the Five Immortals.
However, the dragon vein is closely related to the Jurchen people. As long as the Jurchen people exist, the dragon vein will still have power.
Therefore, these two things must be done simultaneously.
Yang Cheng nodded naturally.
Human will can conquer nature. Dragon veins are the power of heaven and earth, but if humans fail, even the strongest power of heaven and earth is useless.
Just like the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty did not decline because of the decline of the dragon vein, but because of the serious corruption and decay within itself.
Therefore, simply destroying the dragon vein is useless in order to destroy the Great Zhou. The Great Zhou must be dealt with first before the dragon vein can be dealt with.
"However, sir, after those Jurchens borrowed the power of the Five Immortals, their own blood and qi were imbued with demonic energy, so fire attacks would be more effective."
All things considered evil or demonic are most afraid of fire.
Yang Cheng nodded thoughtfully, took out a communication jade talisman, and sent a message to Yuwen Du.
This thing was left to him by Master Xuanwei before he left. Yang Cheng felt that this thing was quite useful, so he asked Master Xuanwei for a few more.
Otherwise, it would be too much trouble to send the message out in this desolate wilderness.
Just then, bursts of singing suddenly came from afar.
Yang Cheng and Hu Sangu jumped up into the tree and looked over. They saw four dirty, stupid pig demons carrying a sedan chair. Inside the sedan chair sat a monster with a leopard's head and a human body, wearing a golden Taoist robe.
The monster held a folding fan in its left hand and a book in its right, swaying its head and singing a song, looking extremely carefree.
"The idea that human nature is inherently good at birth? Bah! I was born to eat meat! Why is being a human so complicated!"
The leopard-headed, human-bodied monster cursed and swore while reciting the Three Character Classic as if singing.
Hu Sangu whispered, "He is also a monster in the dense forests of Liaodong, also known as the Money Taoist."
Besides the Five Immortals lineage, there are other mountain spirits and monsters in the dense forests of Liaodong who have independently comprehended the power of heaven and earth and become demons.
However, their cultivation levels were not very high, and very few of them were able to fully cultivate into human form.
It's strange, though. Judging from his destination, it should be Wuxian Valley, but these mountain spirits from outside rarely appear around Wuxian Valley.
The two sides are constantly in conflict, and have a lot of grudges against each other.
As soon as Hu Sangu finished speaking, Yang Cheng appeared in front of the Money Taoist.
When the Taoist priest saw someone blocking his way, he was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter: "I haven't eaten anyone for many days, and suddenly I've run into someone with delicate skin and tender flesh."
Kid, blame your bad luck! Perfect timing, it'll give me a nice snack!
The Five Immortals have been in human form for a long time. They are powerful and intelligent, so their actions are no different from those of humans.
But monsters like the Golden Money Taoist have only been in human form for a few years, and haven't even fully transformed into human form yet, so their brains aren't very sharp, and their heads are full of blood and food.
Just like now, his first reaction wasn't that this person wasn't alarmed to see a monster like himself, but rather that he could have an extra meal.
"Kids, get on them! Be gentle, or you'll break the skin and it won't taste good."
At the command of the Golden Coin Taoist, the four pig demons huffed and puffed as they pulled out four steel knives covered in scarlet rust from under the sedan chair.
But the next moment, as Yang Cheng looked over, all four pig demons were suspended in mid-air, looking around in terror.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Yang Cheng turned the four pig demons into chunks of pork on the ground.
Before the Money Taoist could prepare how to deal with it, a powerful mental force lifted him up, and a strong sense of suffocation suddenly surged over him.
"Tell me, what are you going to Five Immortals Valley for?"
The Golden Coin Taoist exclaimed in terror, "Go...go to the Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals!"
The Five Immortals invited us to the Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals, saying they were there to deal with the army of the Great Zhou and Yang Cheng, the Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall.
"Once we annihilate the Great Zhou army and deal with Yang Cheng, the Five Immortals lineage will take over the Central Plains, and the incense offerings of Liaodong in the north will be ours."
Yang Cheng nodded naturally.
He wanted to eliminate the Five Immortals and their group of demons in one fell swoop, but the Five Immortals also wanted to eliminate them in one fell swoop.
The Five Immortals have gone to great lengths, summoning all the mountain spirits and monsters of Liaodong in the north to deal with him.
The Taoist priest who was still holding the money in mid-air cautiously said, "My lord, I have already told you, could you spare my life?"
