Chapter 348: Swallowing Rock Harmless
Although Zhao Huang regarded the Chihiro Snake as a demon, it did not prevent him from dealing with it carefully and preparing more.
Zhao Huang stayed in the Valley of Hundred Flowers for a while, in addition to sending Dongtian generals to inspect the surroundings and prevent demons, he was also surveying the mountains and rivers by the way.
At the same time, Zhao Huang was also imitating his distant ancestor Zhao Daoxiang, trying to refine the God Killing Nail that specialized in restraining ghosts and gods.
The Killing God Nail can be called the highest achievement of the refining of the official magic object of the Tianxia Dynasty, this thing is not only borrowed from the power of heaven and earth, but also spreads the heavenly tribulation, and has the power to destroy all kinds of laws, shake the Dao foundation, and destroy the true form.
If you want to deal with ordinary obscene ghosts and gods, and old spirits, you don't need to kill gods at all. Only a person like the Southern Earth Demon God with a long lifespan and profound mana is the target of the God Killing Nail.
In addition, the God Killing Nail is also a means used by the Tianxia Dynasty Praise Officials to target the immortal masters. Although it was all over the world, the God Killing Nail had never been used on any immortal master.
And the sword of silence, which also has the wonderful use of instigating disasters in the world, although it is also cultivated by the teacher Zhang Duanjing with scientific rituals, but to exert an invincible edge, it has extremely high requirements for the state of mind. Although Zhao Xiao knew the teacher's wishes, he didn't know how to kill the demon god without being hurt by the edge of the sword.
Zhao Xiao's cultivation realm is now more advanced than his mother and teacher, but he doesn't dare to boast that he can use the Silent Sword better than them.
Although it can be deduced that in order to give full play to the edge of the divine sword, they are all using the "Jade Ding Liuxia Chapter" to reshape the meridians and change the Dao base, but this move is irreversible, and even to abandon the immortal Dao achievements, it is by no means a long-term solution.
Now Zhao Huang vaguely has the desire to become the Emperor of Heaven, he does not intend to give up the immortal path, but he can't find the best of both worlds for a while.
Although Zhao Xiao can also rely on the magic weapon of the immortal family passed down by Liang Tao to fight the Qianxun Snake, it is not necessary to take such a risk. And Zhao Xiao also has to consider that he will fight with the King of Hundred Phases in the future, and he can't pay too much price to deal with the Chihiro Snake.
"Isn't there still four immortals in the country of bears? Why don't you ask them to help? ”
Seeing that Zhao Huang had hit more than a dozen iron nails like an ordinary craftsman, Miao Suluo asked puzzled.
"They're chasing down the cult cultivators of the Corpse Accumulation Sect, and everyone is busy with their own work." Zhao Xiao said: "And my feud with the Southern Earth Demon God can be said to have continued from the distant ancestor Zhao Daoxiang to the present, in order to relieve the burden, it should be settled by my own hands......"
Halfway through his words, Zhao Xiao suddenly stopped and looked into the distance.
"What's wrong?" Myosarata asked.
"Something close to my new barrier." Zhao Xiao frowned and said, "It's also a demon god scroll, but it's not like the snake Luo clan." ”
Zhao Xiao raised his hand and led it falsely, and the Daming Treasure Mirror flew out by itself, and a strange beast appeared in the mirror, resembling a wild boar, fat and stocky, with short fangs, but the mouth was as big as a basin, and the jaw and abdomen were like a big bag, almost hanging to the ground, and the appearance was strange.
"Rock pigs?" Myosara recognized the beast at a glance.
When Zhao Huang heard this, he remembered that there was also the name of the rock pig in the codex atlas of his predecessors: "It turns out that this is the rock pig?" I have heard that they like to eat iron and stone, and the excrement they excrete is a treasure of heaven and earth, which is used by the Southern Earth Witch Zhu to smelt the blade. ”
"Yes, the rock pig is the descendant of the Rock Swallowing Lord, one of the nine gods." "I heard that the Rock Swallower was seriously injured when the star fell to the ground, and he has long since fallen into a deep sleep, and these rock pigs have also been captured and domesticated by various tribes because of their own habits. ”
"This rock pig didn't come here by accident." Zhao Xiao looked at the Da Ming Treasure Mirror and said.
Miao Sara smiled, "It's just such a rock pig, but you can't break into the barrier you have set up. ”
In order to protect the Valley of Hundred Flowers and allow Miao Suo Luo to rest temporarily, Zhao Huang set up an enchantment formation in the surrounding area, and would also teach her some magic techniques in her spare time.
"It's not trying to break in, it's trying to invite me to talk." Zhao Xiao seemed to have a subtle sense.
Miao Sara dissuaded: "Don't be fooled! These demon gods are the most cunning, and they have a deep enmity with you, so they may have set a trap waiting to deal with you! ”
"Of course I do." Zhao Xiao's sword finger outlined, and the virtual book cloud seal, and then turned into a doppelganger: "So I plan to let the doppelganger go." ”
After saying this, Zhao Xiao handed over the Jade Tree Scepter to the clone, and at the same time, the Great Ming Treasure Mirror bloomed with a round light, connecting the inner and outer ends of the realm. The clone stepped into the round light with a staff, and walked directly through it, until it reached the outside of the barrier of the enchantment, and came to the rock pig.
"It's really the mana of the Immortal Family." Miao Suo Luo was amazed when she saw this, and her gaze at Zhao Xiao added a little more eagerness.
"I also learn from others." Whether it is the change of the clone or the movement of the body, Zhao Xiao is imitating Liang Tao.
The clone looked at the rock pig and said, "Why did you come here?" ”
The rock pig did not have the ability to speak, but it was also quite humane, and turned around and shrugged his shoulders, obviously asking Zhao Xiao to ride it.
"You're going to take me somewhere else?" Since Zhao Huang turned into a clone, he must not be afraid of taking risks, so he simply rode on this rock pig and let the other party carry him and gallop up.
Seemingly fat and stocky, with stubby limbs, although it does not have the ability to soar, its speed in the mountains is not inferior to that of a galloping horse. Zhao Xiao sensed that the rock pig's qi machine was connected with the soil and rocks, not like a gallop, but more like "swimming" on the ground.
Zhao Xiao secretly knew to himself, this rock pig and the swallowing rock lord must also be a flood desolation alien species, it seems that the depths of the southern soil are poor mountains and bad water for mortals, but for these flood desolation aliens, it is more suitable.
However, if humanity wants to develop and reproduce, it will inevitably compete with the things of the world, and there is no difference between good and evil, only the interests and disadvantages of each other.
Looking at the wilderness, grass, trees, mountains and rivers that quickly swept by on both sides, Zhao Xiao couldn't help but think about Yuqing's Divine Mother's move to mend the sky.
If you talk about the cultivation of the Immortal Dao, the Yuqing Divine Mother was the first immortal family to open up the Cave Heaven in the Ancient Flood Wilderness, but her move was not to detach herself, but to leave the Cave Heaven in the world, protect the clansmen, and carefully care for the newborn humanity like a faint spark.
The sages have a cloud - "I only wish the immortal Tao to be successful, and I don't want to be humane and poor", I think that's it.
And the feat of Yuqing Divine Mother to make up for the sky with her body, in exchange for Zhao Huang herself, can she really have the courage to give up everything? Even the Yuqing Divine Mother still wants to cut off the suspicion of greed for life, and finally turn into a spirit flute.
Whether it is as an earthly being who is protected by the great plan to make up for the heavens, or as a disciple of Lingxiao, Zhao Xiao himself owes too much. In the past, the realm had not yet arrived, and many things could not be done if I wanted to, but now that Zhao Huang is immortal, it is time for him to take responsibility.
The Rock Pig ran for two days, and finally came to the vicinity of the Polis Crash again. Zhao Xiao saw a majestic mountain peak, and the mountain rocks facing the starfall land were scorched black, and there was no grass, which was very strange.
"This is the place where the Rock Swallower Lord sleeps?" Zhao Xiao lowered his head and asked.
The rock pig snorted twice, and then carried Zhao Huang to the side of the mountain, through a forest of dead wood, to the outside of a cave.
The rock pig stopped walking, it couldn't get in with its fat body, Zhao Xiao didn't ask much, turned over and landed, and walked into the cave with a cane.
The cave was not damp, nor did it smell of the beast's lair, and through the narrow and long corridor, Zhao Xiao came to a slightly empty place, and he paused his cane, and the top of the staff lit up, illuminating the lifelike floating on the wall.
What is presented by the floating of the stone wall is a huge rock pig, carrying the mountains and towering in shape. It's just that this floating is not an ordinary carving, but more like it has been forged by the flames, revealing a hint of gold and iron matte, and the rock pig also vaguely exudes a painful expression.
"It turns out that this is called sleep." Zhao Xiao was not surprised, and said suddenly: "Integrate your own form and spirit with the mountain veins to preserve the remaining vitality." But this move can only protect itself for a while, and after a long time, the form and spirit will be consumed by the mountains and rivers and the leylines, leaving only a little true spirit. If you are lucky, you may be able to achieve a mountain god and earth, and if you are unlucky, you will disappear from now on. ”
The float is silent, but in the silence, Zhao Xiao sensed a mysterious aura coming from afar, not like a sound transmission, but it can be understood naturally.
"I beg the immortal to save my life, I am willing to serve the immortal from now on." The Lord of Rock Swallowing got straight to the point.
Zhao Xiao was concentrating, and at the same time, the jade tree scepter was lightly floating in front of him, and the original wall of iron and stone was also a little more vivid.
"Help?" Zhao Xiao sneered: "This is too wishful thinking, right? A demon god like you, who is unable to atone for his sins after a hundred deaths, is in danger now, but he knows how to beg for mercy? ”
The Swallowing Rock Lord was puzzled: "The sin that the Immortal said, is it to let the believers offer sacrifices?" ”
"You claim to be a god, and you shouldn't have extorted offerings." Zhao Yan said: "But for the sake of you and others in a wild and uncivilized place, there are some things that I don't force too much, just acts like blood sacrifices for living people, and I can't be spared." ”
"I assure the Immortals that for thousands of years, I have never asked my followers to perform a blood sacrifice." The Rock Swallower said.
"Empty words." Zhao Xiao said bluntly.
The attitude of the Swallowing Rock Lord was resolute: "I am willing to prove my innocence, and the immortals can use the method of soul searching." ”
Zhao Xiao frowned slightly, and did not rush to cast the spell, but asked, "You seem to know much about the immortal family's spells?" ”
"I didn't come from the Southlands, I lived in Middle-earth a long time ago." The swallowing rock master said: "However, mortals burn forests and ploughs, dig mountains and mines, and we are unbearable to be disturbed. Later, under the guidance of the immortal family, he migrated to the depths of the southern soil in order to seek tranquility. ”
"Which immortal family is it?" Zhao Xiao didn't believe it, as soon as he showed his means outside the Hundred Flowers Valley, this Rock Swallowing Lord sent his heir to ask for help, obviously with intentions.
"The Lieshan clan, that is, the lord of the god of agriculture that the people of Middle-earth say." Swallowing Rock said.
Zhao Huang was suspicious, he immediately looked at Ruomu, and asked her if she knew about it, and Ruomu replied:
"I haven't heard the Lord of Ji mention that before I came to this world, there were many powerful beings in the depths of the Southern Earth. I didn't have any dealings with them in the past, but they don't offend me. ”
"How much do you know about the Rock Swallower?" Zhao Xiao asked again.
"The magical creatures that devoured the ore?" There was a hint of a smile in Wakaki's words: "They are interesting, although the believers also worship them as gods, but they are actually using unrefined ores as offerings, and obtaining refined metals from the excretion of their excretions. I think they're not so much gods as special animals raised by the faithful. ”
Zhao Huang was slightly stunned, this result was a little unexpected, and then asked: "Do the Rock Swallowing Lord and the Rock Pig have any evil deeds that harm the innocent?" For example, extortion and worship, demand blood sacrifices, kidnapping young children and women, and inducing natural disasters. ”
"I haven't heard of that, but at best, it's a mad rock pig breaking into the fields and villages to wreak havoc, or rush into the mines to devour minerals." Wakaki said.
Zhao Huang was speechless for a while, this Rock Swallowing Lord and his heirs felt like a group of psychic beasts, and the biggest scourge was similar to ordinary beasts, and it was completely incompatible with the likes of demon gods.
Moreover, Ruomu and the Eternal Emerald Sacred Tree have been rooted in the southern soil for thousands of years, and they know the past of this place, which is quite credible circumstantial evidence.
"You went to crusade against the false gods, did you find out that the Rock Swallower Lord is not evil?" Ruomu sensed Zhao Xiao's doubts.
"Indeed, it was a bit of a surprise to me." Zhao Xiao said: "It's just that this group of demon gods descended the star at the beginning, if I hadn't been lucky enough to use the remaining discipline and law to make the star back, I'm afraid that it is not only me who will die, but millions of living beings will be wiped out." ”
"I vaguely knew that the meteorite was originally going to fall into the depths of the southern earth, which was the punishment of the evil deeds of the pseudo-god by the laws of this world itself, but the pseudo-god used some means to make the meteorite stay in the void for a long time, and when it fell again, it deviated from the original direction." Wakaki said.
"Apocalypse?" Zhao Xiao actually knew about this situation for a long time, but now that he thinks about it, he has a little more understanding.
According to what Jiang Yingke said, after the Yuqing Divine Mother made up for the heavens with her body, the creation law of this heaven and earth also changed. The Southern Earth Demon Gods were in conflict with the Heaven and Earth Creation with their Qi Engine, thus incurring the Heavenly Tribulation, but the problem was that they could actually delay the Heavenly Tribulation that should have fallen on them, and even divert the direction of the Heavenly Tribulation.
And Zhao Xiao's ability to reverse the stars came precisely from the remnants of the Tianxia Dynasty's discipline and law. And the discipline and discipline set up by the praise official happened to be the perfection of the Yuqing Divine Mother's work to make up for the sky, so Zhao Huang was a real representative of the heavens.
Perhaps the situation of practicing the Dharma at the altar in Pujia Pass back then, and almost losing his soul was the closest moment for Zhao Huang to make up for the heavens with his body by the Yuqing Divine Mother, no wonder Ling Xiao had such a strong reaction, and even denounced the inheritance of the praise official as a fallacy and heresy.
Now the question is, which demon god summoned that star? Zhao Huang asked Ruomu, but she didn't know.
Retracting his mind to the floating stone wall, Zhao Xiao said to the swallowing rock master: "You claim to dare to face the method of soul searching, aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to destroy the soul and let you be destroyed?" ”
"Even if the immortals don't do it, how far is my current appearance from the extinction of the form and gods?" Lord Swallowing Rock said in a depressed tone: "Shangxian is willing to come, it is my only way to live." ”
Zhao Xiao can see that the current Rock Swallowing Lord really has no other way out, it comes to beg itself, maybe it is also making a last stand, if Zhao Huang wants to kill him, as long as he exerts great mana, shatters the floating withering in front of him, and then uses the method to channel the earth's vein qi, he can make the Rock Swallowing Lord completely die.
"Okay, then you can take it carefully." Zhao Xiao pondered for a moment, and then used his mana, and Zhou's body shone brightly, illuminating the spiritual light of the floating stone wall.
