Volume 2 The First Palm Xuan's Decree Rewards and Punishments Chapter 98 The clouds and mountains are not clearly covered
Actually, there is a reason for this, or it is inevitable. Wuyun Ancestor is a demon cultivator, the bloodline of the desolate alien species. Although his bloodline was already impure and had a lot of impurities, compared to the human body cultivator, his physique still had a great advantage and was extremely strong. This is the physical advantage of the race, and it is difficult to make up for it the day after tomorrow. Among the younger disciples, the human cultivators, as well as those races that are far from his bloodline, it is not suitable to follow his path. Moreover, with the stability of heaven and earth, the variety of all things has increased, and the number has skyrocketed, but the quality of individuals has declined as a whole. In the era when the Holy Mother of Jiufeng was born in the first heaven and earth, although there were few living beings, they were born noble and strong, and the power of the bloodline was strong. The further back, the more numerous, but the more mediocre the strength. Moreover, the method of refining the body requires the support of a large number of external medicines, but most of the external medicines are genus of plants, trees, birds and beasts, and they are also facing the situation of individual decline. The same formula, the medicinal properties are much worse, and even some ancient recipes have no source of raw materials. Moreover, with the rise of the Terrans, most of the place was occupied by the Terrans, and the high fertility rate of the Terrans made the original rich areas barren. The breakdown of the relationship between the demons of the Northern Wilderness and the Terrans also caused some foreign medicines to completely disappear from the territory of the Terrans. Only a fierce cultivator like the Jindan disciple of the Tiancang Sect who carved a tablet with a leaking rune outside the Moyun Cave dared to enter the Northern Wilderness and rob foreign medicine. Ordinary junior disciples, how can they have this kind of ability. Therefore, the decline of the inheritance of power is also a trend, and only those sects or characters with special means do not have this kind of crisis. And then there is the demon cultivation of the Northern Wilderness that is not affected by these. The Cangyun family in the Five Clouds Sect seems to have gone to the depths of the Northern Wilderness to hide.
Although the Qingyun family originally also took the road of strength refining, their ancestor was born as a mortal, and he led the art to invest in the teacher, making a good spiritual rune. And his disciples are also all Terran disciples, and gradually this disciple lost his strength cultivation method, and only retained some simple methods of breathing and strengthening the body, and the incomplete talisman making technique. Later, these people were no longer considered monks in the true sense of the word, and they mingled in the rivers and lakes. More or less, there are some elements of magic sticks and false ways, in order to make it easy for fools and fools in the world to believe them, and they are integrated into the habits of the people of the rivers and lakes. They began to cast spells like witches and witches in the fog that people couldn't understand. When Wu Ze told these past events, he couldn't help but sigh. Jiang Bo also felt a little empathy, in the final analysis, his current situation was quite similar to Wu Ze. It's just that he still has a chance to improve, and the Youquan Sect doesn't seem to be really dead, but Jiang Bo is actually not much different from a loose cultivator now. Out of caution, Jiang Bo did not mention too much about the identity of his Youquan disciple, and only said the identity of the reward and punishment envoy. and let Wu Ze recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and told him that Zheng Tianduo's body had been brought back by himself and had been buried, and when Wu Ze recovered from his injuries, he could be placed and buried. Wu Ze thanked him again, and Jiang Bo saw that there was nothing to do, so he went straight to the City God Temple in Longsong City.
Jiang Bo had been to Longsong City before when he was in the township test, and now more than ten years have passed, but there has not been much change here. He followed his memory to Yaoxing Street, Caoshi Street, where the local City God Temple is located. This area is the urban area of Fang, where pen shops, medicine stores, cloth shops and other trading shops are thriving, and the City God Temple was originally flourishing with incense. But nearly 100 years ago, there was a big event here. One night, the city god temple was shrouded in black fog, the fishy wind was monstrous, and the sound of ghosts crying wolves was heard all night, and it was gradually peaceful until the fourth watch. After dawn, some brave and good people came out to check, but they found that the temple was dilapidated and the walls had collapsed, and it seemed that even the statues of the gods of Chenghuang and his subordinates had been shattered, and they looked very embarrassed. After that, strange things always happened here at night, and the people did not dare to approach it until night, and gradually it fell. But no one dared to touch the ruins and ruins here, and even the government ignored them, and over time it became a special scene here. All kinds of strange anecdotes have been heard from time to time, and there was a rumor that the young man on duty in the middle of the night saw a person who was covered in darkness looking for herbs to apply to his body in the medicine cabinet, but when he got closer, there was nothing. There are also headless people in the tailor's shop who borrow needles and threads to sew up their bodies in the middle of the night, and the sound of panting for no reason in the coffin shop, and so on.
Many years ago, when Jiang Bo participated in the township test, he was waiting for the news of the list at the inn. Some candidates have visited the City God Temple at night when they are young. As a result, the matter was big, and some people went crazy, and finally alarmed the government and took away the fame of the seven students in one go. Jiang Bo was very impressed by this matter, and he also discussed it with his peers, but in the end, of course, he didn't know the point. On that occasion, more than a dozen young students ran to the Chenghuang Temple after the third watch, and one disappeared after dawn, and the other two fell to the mouth of the street a few feet away from the Chenghuang Temple, foaming at the mouth. The remaining seven people ran aimlessly around the outer wall of the City God Temple like puppets for a night, and only came back to their senses on the fifth watch. Later, the government investigated the matter, and several people's statements that the donkey's lips were not the horse's mouth, which was absurd. Moreover, the explanation of the missing person was not clear, and he was almost not convicted of murder, and in the end, it was a general sentence surnamed Hu who did not pursue his life after investigation. But except for the two who went crazy, the remaining seven were all beaten off their fame and were never allowed to participate in the scientific examination. It can be described as a heavy sentence, but it finally saved their lives.
While Jiang Bo was reminiscing about the past, he unconsciously came to the City God Temple, it was still daytime, but the temperature here was much lower than other places. Jiang Bo frowned, under his Tiantong eyes, what he saw was something that others couldn't see. Originally, according to his thoughts, there might be some unsightly wild ghosts haunting this place, but now it seems that this is not the case. There is actually a place surrounded by earthly evil yin qi, and it is flowing according to a certain law. Jiang Bo couldn't help but be surprised, the formation was a very profound method, and not even everyone among the cultivators understood it. Just like he used to talk to the old man Zhou who studied feng shui in Jinzhu City, he talked about sorting out the spirit and mobilizing feng shui at the Lu family in Jinzhu City. At that time, he had an understanding and deduced that what Zhou Lao had learned should be derived from the broken cultivation method that had lost his heart and backbone. I also realized that the formation is also a way to distribute spiritual opportunities. But theory and practical use are completely two situations, not to mention, Jiang Bo is just a superficial understanding. The formation in front of him made him really a little tricky, but fortunately, there was a Tiantong eye that allowed him to see the direction and distribution of these spiritual machines, as well as the nodes. He observed for a while, and directly found a nearby three-story restaurant, and went directly to the elegant seat on the third floor, overlooking the City God Temple from a high vantage point. This is more intuitive, Tiantong Eye faintly found that there seemed to be something in the temple that was gathering yin evil spirits, slowly swallowing. Jiang Bo only theoretically understood the principles of the formation method, and did not have too deep research on the spirit array. But through the Tiantong Eye, he now basically understands that the thing inside should act as an array eye or a core. If this is removed, this spirit array will naturally dissipate slowly. But it's one thing to see clearly, but it's another thing to want to break the formation. With his level, Jiang Bo decided to observe for a while. As he ate, he watched as he knew it, and before he knew it, it was starting to darken. Jiang Bo felt that it was about the same, so he called Xiao Er to settle the bill. When he walked out of the seat, a man happened to come up from the stairs and greeted him from afar. Jiang Bo glanced at him from a distance and didn't care, but the other party saw that his pupils shrank, and he involuntarily took a step back. I almost knocked the running hall behind me down the stairs. It's just that this person secretly emitted a very subtle energy, and with a clever flick, he straightened the body of the running hall in the air, without revealing any traces.
Jiang Bo suddenly felt as if someone was casting mana, but the feeling was fleeting. He frowned and looked up to see that the diners upstairs were all eating in their private rooms, and everything was business as usual. There were only him and a young man walking in front of him in the aisle, as well as a runner who couldn't go up or down the stairs. There seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, and he couldn't notice anything more, he looked at the young man opposite, and strode downstairs. The young man passed by him, his breath was steady and sluggish, and he looked like an ordinary person. Jiang Bo didn't look too much, if he was more cautious and used Tiantong's eyes, he would have found something. There is a feather fan suspended in this person's dantian, and it is this thing that covers the spiritual veins of this person's body, making it difficult for outsiders to identify. After Jiang Bo left, the young man walked to a private room with a window facing the street, and sat down and gasped for breath. After a long time, his face showed a look of ecstasy, and he said to himself, "It's true, it's true." What I saw was not a dream, I, Yang Zheng, really came back. He peeked at Jiang Bo, who was walking away on the street, and said a little fiercely: "Since I don't know which Divine Venerable Dao Ancestor gave me the opportunity to start over, I must change those unfair thingsγγγγγγ β
Jiang Bo didn't know this, he observed in the restaurant for a long time, and he already had a rough idea in his heart. After leaving the restaurant, he did not rush to the ruins of the City God Temple, but first went to the Zaowang Temple in the south of the city. In the eastern high continent, most countries have a tradition of worshipping the god of the stove. There will be a Stove King Temple in the general big cities in the Great Unification Kingdom, but it is not as grand as for the Dao Ancestor Gods. The systems of the Stove God and the City God are also very different, and Mo City God once mentioned a little to Jiang Bo. The god of the stove is different from other gods, and unlike the officials of the underworld, it does not exist in all the heavens and all worlds. This great god only exists in a world where humanity is neither high nor low. The heavenly immortals, gods, Buddhas and demons generally carry out their own unique teachings to image the beings in the realm, but the Stove King is different from them. He is more like a big parent, and he is very helpful to ordinary people's trivial matters, parents' shortcomings, needles and threads and brains. And his power is not limited to the kitchen, everything related to fire, he has a certain ability to control.
