"May 16 of the thirteenth year of Tianxing.

"I confess, I'm afraid of death.

"Even after cultivating the Forbidden Technique, I was still afraid of running into a difficult enemy that would cause me to completely dissipate into this world.

"So in the last few years, I have successively created several clones and scattered them in various areas of Jiaodong Province.

"They mingle with the crowd and live independently.

"Unless someone is capable of attaining a greater attainment than I am in the path of cause and effect, no one will be able to perceive the relationship between these doppelgangers and me.

"But having a doppelganger doesn't mean you're absolutely safe.

"And I'm tired of living in hiding.

"I had to find a way to make myself stronger.

"At this time, I suddenly remembered that when I defeated the 'Han Zhu', I had obtained an important message from its memory through the soul searching spell - if the 'Fierce God' wanted to be promoted to the 'Ghost King', he needed to sacrifice 100,000 souls.

"I think that if I can become the legendary ghost king, maybe I can no longer fear the Tianxing Emperor and the saints of the Great Qi Dynasty!

“……”

"The ninth day of the first month of the fifteenth year of Tianxing.

"My experiment was a success.

"I took the nine water snakes in the Yi River, used the Zhao Ming Forbidden Technique and the Bagua Circle, combined them into one, and transformed them into a giant monster.

"As the saying goes, the array of gossip is formed by sincerity, and it is psychic for a long time; When you encounter a prosperous age, you will become auspicious; When a world is declining, it is a disaster.

"The current Great Qi Dynasty seems to be peaceful, but in fact there are hidden dangers-

"The royal family, big families, and big sects occupy more than ninety percent of the cultivation resources, but the low-level monks have to do their best to do the task for a small 'meditation pill', and if they are not careful, they will go mad in the process of cultivation......

"The resentment of the people is enough to give birth to a powerful ghost at the level of a 'fierce god'.

"This snake demon is the product of the combination of the essence of Kan and Li's two hexagrams and the resentment of the world. There are four short paintings and one long painting; The two short paintings and the two long paintings are a total of nine paintings, which correspond to the nine heads of the snake demon.

"Kan is colored for water, so the five heads are good at water, and they are black; The color is red because of the fire, so the four heads make good use of the fire, and they are red.

"I named it 'Nine Babies'.

"It is my most proud work after 'Snow Girl', and it will also be an important tool for me to promote to 'Ghost King'.

“……

"The twenty-first day of June in the fifteenth year of Tianxing.

"The plan to become the 'Ghost King' failed.

"I discovered that becoming the 'Ghost King' requires not only sacrificing 100,000 souls, but also performing a special ceremony.

"The 'Nine Baby Snake Demon' that I worked so hard to create was also defeated by the Great Qi National Master, and he sealed it in the underground of Qingzhou Mansion with a spell array.

"It's not easy to create another fierce god like the 'Nine Infants' - because it will not only consume my strength, but also need to accumulate enough resentment among the people. The resentment accumulated by Qingzhou Mansion was obviously not enough to create two 'fierce god' level ghosts like the 'Nine Baby Snake Demon' with huge lethality.

"I'll have to figure out a way to break its seal and release it again."

“……

"The eighth day of the eleventh month of the sixteenth year of Tianxing.

"The Great Qi National Teacher is worthy of being a strong man who has entered the sainthood with the Fu Dao. It took me three years, but I didn't find a way to crack the sealing formation.

“……

"The twenty-fifth day of the fifth month of the nineteenth year of Tianxing.

"Jia Boming, the governor of the Anqiu County Exorcism Division, was injured during a ghost killing mission, and wrote a letter to beg for bones, and sent him back to his hometown.

"One of my clones found him and tried to get some information from him about the 'Nine Baby Snake Demon' sealing formation.

But because he had made an oath of secrecy when he was in office, he would not open his mouth when he died.

"Of course, this kind of small problem is not bothering me.

"I turned him into my puppet with the help of the 'puppet' spell, and naturally inherited all his memories.

"So, I learned from his memory that the Great Qi National Master divided the formation diagram of the 'Nine Infant Snake Demon' sealing formation into eight, and hid them in the yamen of the exorcism division in the eight county towns of Qingzhou Prefecture. As for the exact hiding place, only the governor of the exorcism division of each prefecture knows.

"It's a bit of a headache for me.

"The Yamen of the Exorcism Division belongs to the focus area of the Great Qi Imperial Court, and the governors of each county must have been under the watchful eye of the Heavenly Technique for a long time.

"I certainly can't kill them at will and make them puppets like I am now.

"I have to think of a way to be hidden enough to find out where these eight formations are hidden."

“……

"October 19, the twenty-first year of Tianxing.

"Today, when my doppelganger was wandering around Xunliu Street in Yishui County, I found an artist who was playing with mice. This gave me a new inspiration in my mind.

"According to Cui Mingbo's memory, the governors of each county need to strengthen the seal of the 'Nine Baby Snake Demon' every three years. In this process, they will definitely take out the formation diagram left by the national teacher.

"I just need to make some species such as rats, spiders, and ants into my puppets, and let them infiltrate the Yamen of the Exorcism Division, and observe the governors' every move anytime and anywhere, and maybe I can follow them and find the hidden location of the formation.

"Because I control these puppets through the 'thread of cause and effect', no one will notice anything unusual about them.

So, I turned this rat-playing artist into my doppelganger, and asked him to take the puppets to the exorcism offices in various county towns to follow the governors' every move.

"After a while, through the eyes of these rats, I discovered that the formation map of Mengyin County was hidden in a secret room under the public kitchen - I only needed to tap on a specific floor tile three times to enter the secret room.

"Of course, the entrance to this chamber will authenticate the intruder.

"It's definitely not okay to break in.

"Because the formation at the entrance of the secret room was personally arranged by the national teacher. If you forcibly break in, you will inevitably be known by the national teacher.

"But it's not going to bother me.

"In the Avenue of Cause and Effect, the name is a symbol that symbolizes everyone's identity. I can use the art of cause and effect to borrow someone else's name temporarily.

"More than 40 years ago, I borrowed the name of my neighbor Wu Qilang and spent the night with his wife—although I did not change my appearance, the beautiful woman firmly believed that I was his husband.

So, I temporarily borrowed the identity of the governor of Mengyin County, sneaked into the secret room, and saw the sealing array.

"But I didn't take this formation diagram with me, I just memorized its contents firmly in my head.

"I think I can do the same thing and see the rest of the formation.

“…………

"The eleventh day of the fifth month of the twenty-third year of the heavenly journey.

"As of today, I have used the same method to see the content of the six array maps, and at present, only Le'an County and Yishui County are missing.

"At the same time, on the basis of the memories left by the 'Han Zhu', I basically restored the process of the promotion ceremony to the 'Ghost King' - I needed to find a place that was hidden enough to build an altar and hold the ceremony.

"I set this location in Yishan.

"Yishan, in everyone's cognition, is the territory of the Snow Maiden.

"But actually, it's also my chassis.

"According to the memory of '梼杌', during the process of building the altar, a large amount of Yin Qi will spread to the outside world, causing nearby residents to be eroded by Yin Qi and become ghosts.

"However, as long as I build the altar in Yishan and use the technique of cause and effect, I can mislead others into thinking that the spread of yin qi is caused by the increase in the strength of the Snow Maiden.

“……”

"The eighth day of the ninth month of the twenty-third year of Tianxing.

"My doppelganger in Yishui County suddenly discovered that there was a little official named Gu Xu in the Yamen of the Yishui County Exorcism Division, and his cultivation talent was terrifying. It only took a few months of hard work, and he was about to cultivate to the first realm of consummation.

On top of that, he is entangled in extremely complex threads of cause and effect. Even a quasi-immortal like me, who once entered the Tao with cause and effect, can't see through him completely.

"He's clearly just a man.

"However, when I looked at him with the art of cause and effect, I found that he was two people.

"That sounds a bit mysterious. But I clearly saw that in him, there were two different causes and effects.

"I have to make this person my priority.

"Although with his strength, it is not enough to hinder my promotion ceremony, but with my current situation, no matter what I do, I must be extremely cautious."

“……

"The twenty-third year of the Heavenly Journey, the thirty-third year of September.

"The yin qi in the Yishan area became more and more intense, and it gradually alarmed the imperial court.

"In order to prevent the saint from knowing about the situation here and interfering with my promotion plan, I set up a ban in Yishan to block the heavenly opportunities here.

"From now on, all the heavenly tricks and divination techniques will not be able to accurately predict the situation in Yishan.

"In addition, I also used the 'Traceability' spell to constantly hinder and delay the support of the capital to Qingzhou Mansion.

“……

"The twenty-ninth day of the tenth month of the twenty-third year of Tianxing.

"Today, there are two guys in the way from Yishan.

"A person has a very faint dragon aura on his body, if nothing else, he should be the prince of the Great Qi Dynasty; The other man, apparently, was supposed to be his retinue.

The two men sneaked all the way into Yishan and came to the vicinity of the black altar. Unsurprisingly, they thought of the Black Altar as a creation of the Snow Maiden.

"But anyway, I've got to find a way to get them out as soon as possible.

"However, I can't let them die here - if this prince really dies on my chassis, then the Emperor of Heaven will have a 1 in 1000 chance of discovering my existence.

"In the process of promoting the 'Ghost King', I will not allow the slightest accident to happen.

"So, I used the 'Traceability' spell to set the result that 'they will crash into the Snow Maiden, have a fierce battle, and will eventually be rescued by a mysterious powerhouse'.

"As for what the process is, it doesn't matter to me.

"It's just that I didn't expect that in order to achieve the result set by the 'Trace the Cause' spell, He Yiqun, the junior brother of the Great Qi National Teacher, who has been traveling all over the world and does not ask about the world, actually changed his nature and became the savior of the prince and his entourage!

"I was a little surprised!

"It seems that as my strength gradually improves, my attainments in the 'Way of Cause and Effect' are also improving!"

It turns out that this is the legendary sword that breaks ten thousand laws?

If I were in the same state as him, would I be able to defeat him?

Gu Xu is not 100% confident in this.

However, Gu Xu is not interested in the titles of "the first person in the world" and "the first person in the same realm".

At this moment, he only cares about cultivation and breaking the realm.

So he sent the same question to "Candle Dragon" Chen Yanping again.

Chen Yanping took a long time to reply to the message.

[Candle Dragon: I used to have a puppy named Ah Hei. It loves to lick my shoes, eat my leftovers, and catch rats in the middle of the night. Then it died, and I broke the border. As for more details, and what are my supernatural powers...... I'll tell you when I get a chance later. 】

Chen Yanping's answer was very concise, but Gu Xu could still feel the sad emotions when he broke through the words. Maybe this Chen family's son, who seemed to be moody, sat down next to his puppy's corpse and cried.

After ending the conversation with these people, Gu Xu wrote down a few key words in his notebook - "character", "emotion", and "desire".

There is indeed a pattern to follow in such a thing as supernatural powers.

It's just that he still can't predict what kind of supernatural powers he will awaken when he steps on the Nai Ho Bridge.

…………

Gu Xu's peaceful life didn't last long.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Chen Jisheng summoned all the officials of the Yishui County Exorcism Division to the yamen hall and told them a piece of heavy news:

The battle against Snow Maiden and mutant ghosts in the Yishui region has become white-hot. Wei Qianhu of Qingzhou Prefecture issued an urgent convening order, requiring all monks from the second realm and above in Qingzhou Prefecture to rush to the war zone as soon as possible to assist in the fight against ghosts and help the surviving people evacuate.

When he spoke, Chen Jisheng's expression was solemn and solemn.

And everyone present was also worried.

Shi Xiaohan raised his head and glanced at Gu Xu with an uneasy gaze, the heavy "Kunwu Knife" on her back set off her figure extraordinarily petite.

Gu Xu's expression was still calm, but deep in his heart, he couldn't help but sigh silently: The things that should come are still here after all.

PS: Ask for a monthly pass! (It's almost time for the climax of the first volume, and a lot of threads will be connected, so I hope I can write the feeling I envisioned smoothly...... ）
