Chapter 7: The Beast Venerable

Between heaven and earth, the five elements are mutually reinforcing.

Gold begets water, water begets wood, wood begets fire, fire begets earth, and earth begets gold.

Jin Ke Mu, Mu Ke Earth, Tu Ke Water, Water Ke Fire, Fire Ke Jin.

The same is true of all things in the world, which have always been mutually reinforcing.

At the beginning of the Five Elements, the Qi of Heaven and Earth turned into the Five Spirits. The five spirits set the essence of the five elements, and after ten thousand years of tempering, they finally turned into five spirit beads, that is, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and five spirit beads.

After the birth of the five spirit beads and fall in all directions of the world, they are the treasures of the world, inheriting the essence and aura of heaven and earth. Guarded by generations of Five Elements, the Five Elements are very individual and special.

The Golden Walker abandons evil from good, can forge all kinds of sharp weapons in the world, has a tenacious personality, and is decisive in everything, but not cold-blooded and ruthless.

The Wood Walker is amiable, has the specialty of nurturing souls, and is also the most selfless of the Five Elements.

Aquamariners are highly intelligent and know the art of transfiguration, and they have an unusually cool mind, and they are tactful and resourceful.

The Firewalker has a fiery temper, can summon the spirit of ten thousand fires, is irritable by nature, and is easily impulsive, but it is the most powerful existence among the Five Elements.

The Earth Walker is confident and sincere, understands Qimen Dunjia, and has the spirit of a prophet, able to foresee what will happen in a short period of time, and is also the most mysterious of the Five Elements.

The name of the Five Elements originates from the Five Elements Gate, which has no fixed mountain courtyard pavilion and temple, and the disciples in the door are distributed all over the world. The disciples of the Five Elements Sect walked the world with the slogan of punishing evil and promoting good, and were praised by the world.

The Five Elements are not mavericks, and they are all over the world.

The Five Elements Gate was born in ancient times and has a deep relationship with the Lingtu clan.

――――――――――――――――――――

In ancient times, gods and demons fought, and between heaven and earth, life and soul were devastated.

The water god Gonggong and the fire god Zhurong fought against the Zhou Mountain, causing the heavenly pillar to collapse and the sky to shatter.

Nuwa couldn't bear the death of the living beings in the world, so she used her own body to shake the sky, kill the heaven and earth, and return her soul to the nine heavens.

Heaven and earth have spirits, and they were touched by Nuwa's feat, and they landed in the world with five spirit beads, and scattered to the spiritual mountains of the Three Realms in the west, the abyss of the deep sea in the east, the Taigu City and the Flame City in the south.

The five spirit beads appeared in the world, shocked the demons, sealed the gods, and calmed the turmoil of heaven and earth.

In the years that followed, the tribes prospered, and although there were occasional minor frictions between them, there were no major wars.

Until the rise of the Lingtu clan, the general trend of the world gradually changed.

A picture of heaven and earth, unfolding like an epic.

Picturesque rivers and mountains, beacon fires and wolf smoke, fierce battles of all races.

The murderous aura is pervasive, filling the entire heaven and earth.

A huge figure stood among the ten thousands, and he shouted loudly, causing the gods to descend from the sky, the demons danced wildly, and the heavens and the earth fell into a melee again.

The gods and demons broke through the seal, and the battle between all races was fought to the death. The heavens had mercy, and it rained heavily for seven days and seven nights, and after the heavy rain, the earth on earth was already a mountain of corpses.

On the battlefield, leaving only a slender and soft lonely back, she cried softly, looking at the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains corpses.

In the seven-day tragic decisive battle, only a few people survived, but the Lingtu clan that caused this great war disappeared completely, and the heavens and the earth were in ruins, until the five spirit beads reappeared, so that the souls of the dead were reincarnated, and the peach blossoms bloomed after thousands of years, and it was a new world.

This battle has gradually been forgotten by the world with the passage of thousands of years, but the sacred five spirit beads have been passed down forever.

In the middle of the night, Baili Qinglan suddenly woke up from a nightmare. He looked at the surrounding woods and looked at his sister, who was still sleeping next to him, and knew that he had just had a strange dream.

In his dream, he saw the great battle between heaven and earth thousands of years ago, and saw the legendary Five Spirit Beads. He felt that the scene in his dream was so real that it seemed to be there, and he could not forget it.

In the dream, he saw his ancestor, a tall giant, a great hero who stood up to the sky. The giant fought alone in the world, drank blood for nine days, and was finally killed by the gods and demons of the heavens, and the blood rained all over the sky, telling the lonely and desolate, shocking the world.

The cold wind came, and Baili Qinglan was no longer sleepy. He took off his coat and put it on his sister's body, looked at his sister's innocent face, and said softly: "Sister, I seem to see you in my dream, although the woman's back and body shape are different from yours, I always feel that she has your breath." Why did that great war break out 6,000 years ago? ”

"Five Spirit Beads......

Baili Qinglan thought that maybe finding the Five Spirit Beads would solve the thousand-year-old puzzle, so she pondered all night and unconsciously entered a new day.

――――――――――――――――――――

A drizzle of rain moistens the earth. Mountains and mountains, shrouded in rain. Hazy, like a fairyland.

After the rain in the valley, the mountain breeze is cool. Beasts lay on the ground, and birds soar.

This mountain is nameless, but the valley is famous, called the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts.

The name of the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts was spread thousands of years ago, when the wind of cultivating immortals was prevalent and all races were in full bloom. This Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts was also a famous clan among all the clans back then.

It's just that time has passed, and all races have become dust, or disappeared, or hidden, and the wind of cultivating immortals has gradually faded. Nowadays, there are only disciples of the Five Elements Sect all over the world, or some small sects, but they are not worth mentioning.

At this moment, the ancient sarcophagus turned into a spirit slaughter body and was obtained by the descendants of the spirit slaughter, the seal of the underground palace was automatically broken, and the beasts regained their freedom.

In the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, a man in white stood quietly among the beasts, staring at the sky, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

After a long time, there was no movement in the sky. He slowly walked up the mountain, looking at the Futu Peak in the distance, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and on the distant mountain, a woman came in the air, flew here in the blink of an eye, and landed in front of the man.

Facing this woman, the man in white conjured a jade flute with his bare hands, held it with both hands, looked gentle and elegant, and smiled faintly: "If there is a woman, the temperament is still the same." ”

The woman had a very cold temperament, wearing a white dress, her eyes were sharp, and she said coldly: "I owe you a favor at the beginning, and I am here to repay your favor today." ”

As she was speaking, Bai Ruochu suddenly exuded a domineering aura outside her body, and a strong true qi was forced out of her body and forcibly ejaculated into the body of the man in white.

The man in white has long hair flying, and there is no wind to automatic. Feeling the strong true qi entering the body, his eyes became hot, and he couldn't help but roar loudly, and the beasts surrendered to it.

Slowly, two horns grew on the man's forehead, and his long hair turned red. He opened his mouth, but let out a piercing roar, like a dragon's roar, like a tiger's roar, and like a phoenix's roar, as if countless beast roars came out of his mouth at the same time, shocking to the extreme.

The man looked at his hands, regained his composure, couldn't help laughing, and said to Bai Ruochu: "My strength has returned to its peak, you saved me six thousand years ago, I rescued you from the Black Yarn Clan two thousand years ago, and now you have returned the power of the beast god to me." Sure enough, it's a causal cycle. ”

Bai Ruochu's eyes were still cold, and he said, "Back then, the Beast Venerable rescued me from the Black Yarn Clan and sealed my spiritual sense in a juvenile nine-tailed spirit fox. In order to keep my spiritual sense immortal, the Beast Venerable sealed the power of the Beast God in the body of the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox. Now I will return the power of the beast god to you, and it is only right. ”

The man in white sighed: "Today, only the Spirit Tu clan still remembers the existence of my beast venerable. Only the Lingtu clan helped the orcs six thousand years ago, and although the orcs were eventually wiped out by all races, I still thank you very much, thank you brother Lingtu. ”

It turned out that this man in white was the supreme of the beast clan and the king of all beasts.

This beast venerable is the man in white that the two sisters and brothers of Baili Qinglan met not long ago.

Bai Ruochu said: "Six thousand years ago, we were also acting on the orders of our master to help you beast clans. The master hopes to get a good cause and effect, and when the descendants of the Spirit Slaughter re-emerge after six thousand years, he hopes that the Beast Clan can become the firmest backing of the Spirit Slaughter Clan. ”

The Beast Venerable smiled noncommittally and said, "Although I have now regained the power of the Beast God, this new body has not yet fully fused. ”

"Speaking of physical fusion, I still have one more thing that I hope the Beast Venerable can help me." Bai Ruochu faced the beast venerable and said.

The beast venerable nodded and said, "I know what you want me to do, the body of the nine-tailed spirit fox is integrated with you, which will cause you great inconvenience, so I will cast a spell to separate you from the body of the nine-tailed spirit fox." ”

The Beast Venerable did not procrastinate, and directly cast a spell to separate the body of the nine-tailed fox from Bai Ruochu's body.

This is a white fox with very cute eyes that blink at a glance. She shrunk back, a little afraid of the beast venerable, and didn't dare to look directly into the beast venerable's eyes.

Bai Ruochu glanced down at the nine-tailed fox, revealing a hint of a smile but not a smile, and then flew up, said "There will be a period later", and flew into the distance.

After Bai Ruochu left, the Beast Venerable picked up the nine-tailed fox that was trembling on the ground, touched her head, and chuckled: "What, haven't you had enough fun?" The Spirit Slayer is not something you can provoke. ”

The nine-tailed fox stared at the beast venerable with big watery eyes, and let out two beast screams, but he didn't know what he was saying.

The beast venerable smiled and said, "Of course you have seen me, have you forgotten it so quickly." That day, I saved you and your senior brother Dengyun, you fused with Bai Ruochu's body, and willingly guarded Baili Qingyue for twenty years. Moreover, the people you met that night were not ghosts or ghosts, and the things that were not ghosts were the physical bodies that had just been fused with the deity at that time. ”

Hearing the beast venerable talk about this, the nine-tailed fox was so frightened that he immediately broke free and jumped on the ground, running away.

Seeing this, the beast venerable laughed, looked at the nine-tailed fox that was running farther and farther, and shook his head silently.

…………

At night, migratory birds return to their nests, and beasts fall asleep. The whole valley is particularly peaceful.

Under the moonlight, the white-clad nine-tailed fox quietly ran back to the valley, hiding in a bush and secretly staring at the beast supreme.

The beast venerable sat cross-legged on the ground, enjoying the moonlight and bathing in the moonlight. Gradually, he frowned, took off his clothes violently, and his body began to rot, exuding a bloody aura.

He let out a low roar, his palms folded, and his head was dripping with sweat, and he looked in pain.

Gradually, his whole body began to rot, even his cheeks were rotten, and when the flesh was rotten to a certain extent, his body began to dismember.

His legs parted from his body, then his arms, and finally his head fell off.

The nine-tailed fox hiding in the grass was so frightened that he couldn't move when he saw such a strange and terrifying scene, his body shrunk into a ball, and his eyes didn't blink, for fear of being discovered by the beast venerable.

The moon falls on the treetops and passes away overnight. As dawn rose, the rotting flesh regrew flesh and limbs, and soon reverted to the beast's original form.

The Beast Venerable stood up and yawned. walked directly towards the nine-tailed fox's hideout, picked it up, shook his head and said, "You have observed me all night this night, aren't you sleepy?" Look at what scares you, the deity doesn't eat people. ”

The nine-tailed fox looked directly into the eyes of the beast venerable, and his body trembled for a while before fainting in fright.

"Heh, this is the first time I've seen a cowardly goblin like you." The beast venerable chuckled lightly, and walked into the nearby cave with the sleeping nine-tailed fox in his arms.
