The room is lit with candles.

Luo Shen sat cross-legged in his chair and read, and the huge bookshelf behind him was already filled with books of various materials, old and new, and different fonts.

From the Taoist scriptures, to the monks' Tripitaka scriptures, and then to the "caravans" of the subordinate families, they used various means to collect martial arts cheats, Taoist methods, evil arts, and anecdotes from all over the Great Wei...... The whole nine yards.

Of course.

Luo Shen also understands that the Jin Liang of his underground family members, although his physical strength will increase greatly after being parasitized by the second-generation white worm, and he is not afraid of death. Even ordinary warriors can't bargain in their hands, if you add the large-caliber revolvers, grenades, and new chemical agents that have been assigned to them on the side of the Xinming Empire that have begun to be installed for Jinyiwei...... It can also kill some masters in the Great Wei world.

However, this is basically their limit.

This world is a world retrieved by Luo Shen with the background of Liao Zhai and the movie version of A Chinese Ghost Story, although the customs and some basic information are very similar to the world of Liao Zhai or A Chinese Ghost Story, but in fact it is not so simple.

From some of the cultivators and court officials who had gradually taken control over the years, Luo Shen already knew some secrets about this world.

And these secrets are also the reasons why he did not immediately mobilize a large number of dependents throughout the entire territory of Great Wei, and even some surrounding countries to directly establish a copy of the Xinming Empire.

There are too many cultivators in this world!

Luo Shen originally thought that the strongest people in the world were none other than a few characters who appeared in "A Chinese Ghost Story", the decent Yan Chixia, Baiyun Zen Master, the centipede spirit among the demons, the old demon of Black Mountain, and the tree demon grandma.

Now that I look closely, I find that things are not like that at all.

First of all.

Yan Chixia and Zen Master Baiyun are indeed the existence of great masters in the cultivation world in this world.

But if it's the highest, it's not.

First of all, Yan Chixia was a Taoist priest who practiced halfway, and when she was young, she was a spicy judge in the twenty-six provinces of the famous earthquake, and she hated corrupt officials the most in her life, and she also retired because of the traitorous ministers, and finally ran to the abandoned Lanruo Temple.

It can be seen that Yan Chixia did not learn Taoism when she was young, but she only became a monk halfway later.

In the second part of the movie, Zhiqiu Yiye once asked Yan Chixia what sect he was, and reported that his family said that it was the Kunlun faction, but Yan Chixia was vague about the past.

It can be seen that Yan Chixia is not willing to report to the sect.

Here, Luo Shen is speculating - could it be that this Yan Chixia was expelled from the sect? Or is there no sect at all?

If it is said that Yan Chixia was expelled from the sect, it is actually not reliable.

Not to mention that most of those famous and authentic apprentices will start from young children, or at least teenagers, and judging from Yan Chixia's age and experience, he was obviously still running around as a head catcher when he was young, where did he have time to enter the sect to cultivate?

Actually, through some timeline speculation.

It is not difficult to find that the first half of Yan Chixia's life is relatively simple - it is a path of practicing martial arts, becoming a head catcher, catching thieves all over the world, and martial arts are getting higher and higher.

In the second half, I found that the world was turbid, and I was really disappointed, and I was already middle-aged when I retired in a rage.

During this period, where did he have time to cultivate?

However, in the blink of an eye, this Yan Chixia appeared again but already had a deep Dao technique!

No matter how you look at it, it was after he went into seclusion that he began to formally practice Taoism, and he became a great master in a thousand days.

Again.

Yan Chixia's learning is very complicated, from the commonly used "Heaven and Earth Wuji, Qiankun Borrowing" to "Prajnaparamita", as well as the swordsmanship and Xuanyuan Divine Sword used in the later period......

If it had been before, Luo Shen might not have been able to tell the difference, but now that he had read countless books on the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect, he knew that these spells came from completely unrelated sects!

From Qiankun Dao, Buddhism, and then to the Shushan School...... How complicated?!

Moreover, Luo Shen also learned from an ancient book that the Xuanyuan Divine Sword was actually one of the top ten divine swords in this world, and if such a divine object was owned by the sect, it must also be placed in the mountain gate to worship day and night, and it could only be used when it was a major event. How could he be carried around by a sloppy Taoist priest like Yan Chixia, who had become a monk halfway through the head hunting?

Judging from all indications, there is a possibility that this Yan Chixia is a wild cultivator!

It is very likely that he encountered some chance when he was serving as a head catcher, and thus obtained a cultivation method.

It happened that he was so disappointed in the world that he went into seclusion and practiced.

The methods, pills, and magic weapons obtained by chance have made great progress, and more than ten years later, he has become a top master.

In the first part of A Chinese Ghost Story, Yan Chixia was still unable to use the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, and the power of the spell was not as strong as in the second part.

In the second part, Yan Chixia was able to defeat the centipede essence that was much stronger than the tree demon grandma, in addition to some luck components, it also showed that Yan Chixia's strength has increased tremendously over the years.

Combine this information.

Luo Shen could deduce that in the first part, this Yan Chixia could only be regarded as a first-class master among cultivators, and in the second part, he could only be regarded as the peak state after thoroughly mastering the Xuanyuan Divine Sword and the flying of the Imperial Sword.

In the third part, the Baiyun Zen Master has profound mana, and even his blood has been cultivated into gold, but he is still unable to deal with the tree demon grandma who is "five or five open" with Yan Chixia in the first part...... It can be seen that he is not Yan Chixia's opponent.

As for the third cultivator, Zhiqiu Kazuha.

It is a typical disciple of the Damen Sect, which is not difficult to guess from the fact that he proudly reported the name of the Kunlun Sect to Yan Chixia, or from his age and conversation.

However, Zhiqiu Yiye's strength is not strong, and his spells are not effective from time to time, and he only relies on one hand to escape the earth and a few small spells to mix the world.

And it's not a good mix.

Obviously, he can't be the most core and elite disciple of the Kunlun faction.

From this point of view, it's really interesting to look at - in this A Chinese Ghost Story trilogy, those demons are desperately working with cultivators like Yan Chixia, Baiyun Zen Master, and Zhiqiu Yiye who have no way to live.

And what about those famous and authentic?

Could it be that there are so many real people, mages, and so many famous and authentic sects in the world who can't compare with a wild cultivator like Yan Chixia and a monk like Baiyun Zen Master?

The implication of this is somewhat interesting......

……

Compared to monks, demonic information is more secretive.

There are many monsters that appear several times in the play, from the female ghost controlled by the tree demon grandmother, the grass and tree demon, to the invisible insect under the centipede spirit, and the ghost soldiers and ghost generals under the command of the old demon of Montenegro...... There are always a lot of zeros.

However, the main ones that are really worth mentioning are the centipede spirit, the old demon of Black Mountain, and the grandmother of the tree demon.

It's not hard to know from the plot.

The strength of the Dryad Grandma is the weakest, but because of the nature of its body, it is seriously injured and hidden every time, waiting for decades or hundreds of years to come out again to make waves.

The strength of the old demon of Montenegro is much stronger than that of the tree demon grandmother, and it seems to have mastered some kind of doppelganger method, and even controls a large area in the underworld, so that the tree demon grandmother has to curry favor with this giant in the underworld.

The strongest should be that Pudu Cihang.

Not only is this centipede spirit about to turn into a dragon, but it is also able to pretend to be a high monk in a world where there are so many cultivators, and it has also become a great Wei national teacher!

Such a wrist...... I don't know where to go higher than the old demon of the Black Mountain who can only hide in the underworld and the tree demon grandma who seduces passers-by with the help of female ghosts in the mountains!
