Chapter 183: Your Guest Arrives
Zhang Qian's eyes were calm, and he had no intention of wondering if the Eight Great Demons were sincerely attached at this moment.
"Now the 3,000-mile waters of the Minjiang River will be temporarily under my control, until the day when the Minjiang Water God reshapes the divine body, and then the power will be handed over, do you have any objections?" Zhang Qian asked.
In a short period of time, Li Yu was unable to absorb enough of the power of incense faith, and he was unable to condense the divine body, at least half a moon would have to pass.
Several demon generals looked at each other, and did not dare to figure out whether this is true, or this Taishang Taoist wants to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, it is not much different for several people, and there is no need to bother to entangle, hurriedly bowed, and said: "Now that the waters of the Minjiang River are in chaos, it is necessary for people like the Taoist to come to rectify and adjust, and you will control the overall situation, and we naturally have no objections, and please give instructions, and we will do our best to do everything well." ”
"You don't need to do anything, first open your hearts, worship sincerely, and recognize the god of water as the Lord. Zhang Qian turned sideways and took half a step, pointed to the carp phantom suspended in the void behind him, and said.
The gods can recruit subordinates, like the old demon under the command of the fairy Wangxia, this kind of existence is called the god in the Daomen, but it is not simply to surrender by force can be achieved, it must be its own heart and sincere worship, there is no trace of distractions in the heart, pious worship, you can place your own soul on the god edict, so as to get rid of the demon road, but it also means that every move in the future and even a thought in your heart will be detected by the gods you believe in, as the so-called ' If you don't believe it, you won't be able to get rid of it, unless you completely betray the faith, but then the gods are also aware of it, and can punish you for sending calamity.
This is different from ordinary believers, who at least keep themselves, while priests give everything they have to the gods.
This kind of thing Zhang Qian heard from Fairy Wangxia, but now it just came in handy.
Even if the strength gradually increases in the future, not afraid of the revenge of the gods, but betraying the faith, the Dao heart will also leave defects in the heart, it is difficult to consummate, even when he was ruled by the three major lords before, he did not recognize it as the master, and the old turtle was a self-proclaimed water god, without the edict issued by the heavenly court, and could not absorb the incense faith. But now to be like this, it is simply to put a shackle on yourself, and I am extremely resistant to this, but under Zhang Qian's indifferent scrutiny, the insignificant courage in the hearts of several people quietly collapsed, and they did not dare to have a disobedient heart.
Believing that the gods are the master, I am afraid that I can only be at the mercy of others for the rest of my life, and I am afraid that I will be a slave and a servant.
But if you don't follow it at this time, I'm afraid it will be the end of the destruction of both form and spirit, which is more important, how to choose, the eight demon generals will naturally understand in their hearts.
Moreover, the return of the Minjiang water god is canonized by the Dongyue Emperor, is the god of righteousness, orthodox in the world, attached to his name, can be removed from the demons, classified into the Shinto, recognized by the righteous way, in exchange for the usual this is the opportunity that can not be sought, but also a few people in the Minjiang River water mansion for the king of the mountain for too long, accustomed to freedom, this is hesitation, and now considering the situation carefully for a moment, he made up his mind, since there is no choice, simply go all the way to the dark, otherwise he will fall into a dilemma, and the end will be even more miserable. There is no need for Zhang Qian to say more, he immediately bowed down, throwing away all the distractions in his heart, and he was extremely pious, just like a Taoist disciple worshipping Dao Ancestor.
In the process of bowing to the eight demon generals, Zhang Qian's divine sense felt every wisp of faith in detail, and did not find a trace of distractions, which was extremely pure.
Moreover, the strength of the eight demon generals is not bad, the spirit is strong, and the power of faith generated by each bow is extremely huge, like a python winding towards Li Yu's body, integrating into the body, and turning into flesh and blood.
After bowing nine times, the soul of the eight demon generals and Li Yu's edict have formed a bridge between them, communicating with each other, no need to worship, and the power of faith continues to flow into it, and the demon energy circulating on several people is reflected by the golden divine radiance, and it has also lost the taste of demons, and it looks sacred and dignified, although the appearance is still a little hideous, but it is not a fierce god, but it gives people a feeling of not being angry and self-righteous, obviously has broken away from the demon road, and the success of recognizing the master, Zhang Qian saw this, waved his sleeves, and lifted the eight demon generals from the ground, and then said in a loud voice: "Now that you have recognized the water god of the Minjiang River as the master, you will be the attendant of the gods, you must not be a demon, you should act in checks, you must not kill innocents indiscriminately, you must not destroy the mountains and rivers and the leylines, you must not damage the heaven and earth to benefit yourself, respect the Tao and respect God, all those who obey the rules and precepts of the Qing Dynasty must not act recklessly, if there is a disobedience, they will be punished severely!"
The eight demon generals nodded again and again, and now they didn't dare to have the slightest objection, not even the slightest thought of questioning.
"Present the blades of your men. Zhang Qian suddenly remembered something, and stretched out his hand to point at the demons.
When the eight demon generals heard this, they didn't dare to ask more about the reason, and the magic weapon that they had worked so hard to refine, The blades are offered with both hands, mostly axes and hammers, refined according to the appearance of human weapons, not as mysterious and multi-segmented as the magic weapon of the Daomen, with infinite changes, but there is one thing in common, that is, the evil spirit is awe-inspiring, all of them are washed with the blood of cultivators, with a deep resentment, Zhang Qian flicked his fingers, and a pure yang was really entwined up, and the evil qi on it was all broken, and the original demonic blades suddenly glowed with the light of the spirit, making people's hearts smooth, and it has changed into a righteous spiritual treasure, several demons looked at each other and did not dare to say more, it seems that this Taishang Taoist is really a righteous person who can't rub sand in his eyes。
After refining a few demon weapons and returning them to a few people, Zhang Qian brushed his sleeves and let them retreat, not forgetting to tell them.
"In the future, the Great Array of Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Ruins does not have to be opened at any time, just maintain the basic operation, dismiss the redundant demon soldiers, return to their respective waters, and govern their fiefdoms. "Zhang Qian's intention is to change the appearance of the Minjiang Water Mansion, and he can't stay in the past of the Demon Mansion, otherwise even if he enters the place in the name of righteousness, he will still be criticized by people in the right way, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold.
"Yes, follow the instructions of the Taoist. ”
The eight demon generals ordered to retreat, but also knew Zhang Qian's intentions, without his careful explanation, he did things in an orderly manner according to his intentions, all the sixty or seventy thousand demon soldiers privately stored in the water mansion were dismissed, leaving the waters affected by the water eye dragon vein, immediately shedding the demon body, and changing into a fish and crab that was old for a long time, most of these demon soldiers did not cultivate the demon road, but were blessed by the water eye dragon vein, which gave them such a strong strength, after the dismissal, they immediately recovered their original appearance, and their consciousness gradually degenerated, and they were carefree in the middle of the river, and the original group of demons lived togetherThe Minjiang Water Mansion, which was as chaotic as an anthill, suddenly emptied, and it also had an unprecedented calm.
In addition, some of the minor gods in the tributaries of the waters, who were previously recruited by the three major lords and gathered in the water mansions, were driven as slaves, and now they have also regained their freedom and have returned home.
He is also grateful to the new water god and is convinced.
In the fighting method, the water house was severely damaged, and the building was also repaired, but it was less extravagant. Extravagant, more a little simpler, there is the natural appearance of Taoism, Zhang Qian retreats and recuperates in the water house every day, waiting for Li Yu to reshape the divine body, and does not over-restrain the eight demons, but also free, several demons have gradually adapted to this new life, and after the death of the old turtle, no one occupies the dragon vein of the water eye, and the vitality of heaven and earth exuded from the crypt merges into the river water, nourishing hundreds of millions of creatures in the water, the original vitality of the Minjiang River has changed its appearance in just a few days, and the fish and shrimp in the water are in groups, Waterfowl frolicking, snow on both sides of the bank is civilized, and cedars bud.
And before that, the heaven and earth vitality emanating from the crypt was devoured by the old turtle alone, and Hugh said that the hundreds of millions of living beings in the water mansion could not take a trace of benefits, and it was difficult for even the eight demon generals to absorb a trace.
Now that he can share the benefits, he is satisfied, and he doesn't have to work hard every day to stay in the big array, and he has enough time to cultivate.
After a few days, he also recognized the rule of the Taishang Daoist over the waters of the Minjiang River, and even faintly had the intention of maintaining, rather than the previous attitude of going with the flow and resigning himself to fate, Zhang Qian took the changes in the mentality of the eight demon generals into his eyes, and did not say much, but he was waiting for the news, a few days ago, he sent a message to the Wangxia Fairy, and informed her of the robbery and death of the Yang Dao people and Chixia Dao people, and then reported the matter through the Dizhi lineage. Emei Mountain Xiaodongtian should have received the news at this moment, and a distinguished guest came to the door in a few days, although it seemed like he was going around in circles, but Zhang Qian had his own plans.
And in the past few days, his Purple Mansion has also appeared, and the pure Yang True Qi is converging towards it like ten thousand streams returning to the sea, and the original Pure Yang True Qi can fill the twelve righteous scriptures, but now it only occupies less than one-tenth of the capacity of the Purple Mansion.
"The realm of Qi Xing Zhou Tian is indeed a watershed on the path of cultivation, opening up the Purple Mansion, and the amount of pure yang true qi that can be contained in the furnace is more than ten times that of the realm of a hundred bones and unobstructed. Zhang Qian secretly pondered in his heart, and also knew that there was a gap between his current strength and the realm of Qi Xing Zhou Tian and even the Jindan human immortals, if he relied on the three inner pills in his body, the cultivators in the later stage of the Qi Xing Zhou Tian realm would not be his opponent to compete for true qi, coupled with all kinds of magical means and Lingling Liuhe Tower, the two sides fought the method, he had a ninety percent chance of winning, but if it was a human immortal in the realm of Jindan, I am afraid that there was only room to save his life, and it was also very embarrassing, and he would definitely not be able to compete head-on.
"It is also necessary to improve the strength as soon as possible, and only by achieving the immortal industry position can we have the ability to control the overall situation and deal with the crisis. Zhang Qian still didn't dare to relax in his heart.
However, the realm of Qi Xing Zhou Tian is a process of accumulation of benefits over time, unlike the realm of a hundred bones that can be tricked, using external forces to penetrate the meridians, so that Zhang Qian has opened up the twelve canons in just half a year, saving decades of effort, faster than taking the elixir, but the realm of Qi Xing Zhoutian can only run one week after another, which is difficult to trick. In particular, the operation method of the Great Zhou Tian is extremely exquisite, divided into different schools, the more subtle the effect, the more obvious, the view of the portal is extremely strict, although Zhang Qian now knows one or two, but they are all born from the Demon Sect exercises, one is derived from the "Heart and God Void Refining Fire Technique", and the other is derived from the "Nine Palaces Golden Immortal Formula".
The Demon Sect was brave and diligent, and it was more subtle than the authentic Dao technique of the Xuanmen Sect before the Hundred Bones Unblocked Realm, but after reaching the realm of Qi Xing Zhoutian, it could not be compared at all.
These two sets of big Zhou Tian running routes, are very clumsy, on the basis of the small Zhou Tian basically did not change too much, it is impossible to mix any mystical truth, and the Dao Sect in the Great Zhou Tian operation method is a comparison, it is simply not a thing on the table, Zhang Qian added a little worry to this, an ordinary Great Zhou Tian operation can contain pure Yang true qi and a subtle Great Zhou Tian can contain pure Yang true qi, it is very likely to be several times the difference, which means that he spends the same amount of time to practice, but can only be affected by a fraction of the effect of others, he does not want to waste so much time, and his heart is planning how to obtain the advanced Dao skills in the Daomen。
The "Tianyi Divine Water" and "Void Nature Origin Sutra" and even "Vermilion Bird Fire Technique", although they are all the supreme methods of Taoism, but they belong to the Five Elements Taoism, which is not orthodox, but to lay the foundation for the future Five Qi Dynasty Yuan, which does not have the operation of the Great Zhou Tian, and those orthodox Taoism are hidden in the Taoist Palace, which is regarded as the foundation of the Teaching, how can it be easily revealed, Zhang Qian has no clear idea at present, so stay for now.
Anyway, there is only one running line for Xiao Zhoutian, but there are not so many changes to be desired.
was about to mobilize the pure yang true qi in the purple mansion to run Zhou Tian, suddenly there was a demon outside the water mansion to transmit the divine consciousness to report the message, Zhang Qian listened attentively, he knew the specific situation, brushed his sleeves and got up, withdrew the ban on the water mansion, and let the demons prepare the feast, immortal brew, The spirit fruit is readily available, it was prepared a few days ago, there is no panic at this time, these little demons are agile, and they will be cleaned up in a few breaths, with a warm look, Zhang Qian did not go to greet him in person, straighten out his clothes, and sit in the middle of the hall, his shoulders are as steady as a mountain, the tiger is on the dragon plate, and his bearing is majestic, but after a while, he saw the two demons welcoming the curtain into a group of people, and the Taoist female crown is a total of seven people.
The man is elegant, the woman is graceful and luxurious, although the appearance is young, between the gestures and the look of the eyes, it gives people a feeling of old and serious.
is completely different from Chaiyang, Chixia and others, and invisibly gives people a heavy pressure, although there is no edge, but people dare not compete with it.
Those two demon generals can be regarded as big demons who have cultivated humanoid paths well, but they can lead the way with the seven people, but they don't even dare to raise their heads, like the little eunuch who leads the way in front of the emperor, cautious, for fear of making a mistake.
The seven walked steadily, and although they did not speak, there was anger in their eyes.
Walking into the water mansion, his eyes invariably looked towards Zhang Qian, who was sitting upright on the main hall, as if an invisible cold wave was pressing away, making the atmosphere here suddenly drop to freezing.
Zhang Qian's gaze swept over a few people lightly, but he did not hide his breath, and his divine sense could easily feel that the pure yang vitality gathered in the purple mansion like an abyssal sea, and it was constantly releasing yang evil towards the outside world, like a round of dazzling white sun, making it a little difficult for people to breathe, as if all the white light that was inhaled into the lungs was pure to the extreme, and the thoughts in his mind were also blank, these seven people were all masters of the realm of Qi Xing Zhoutian, especially the middle-aged Taoist priest at the head, who was full of yang energy, giving people a feeling of warmth and jade, and he actually stepped into the realm of filling in the hurdles, with a long sword tied to his waist, and his eyes were cold, and he knew at a glance that he was the kind of difficult person who was not close to human feelings。
This kind of formation, if it were an ordinary person, was scrutinized like this, and there was still a slight hostility in the eyes of several people, I am afraid that they would have already panicked and even lost their temper.
However, Zhang Qian was calm, with a light and breezy appearance, several people's eyes fell on him, as if they had fallen in the water, and they were all dissolved, and they didn't even get up, and they stretched out their hands slightly to make a gesture of please, and said: "A few Taoist friends are tired of traveling and driving, and they must have been extremely tired all the way, and they must have eaten some wine, melons and fruits, don't be too rude, Minjiang Shuifu has been occupied by demons before, and it has only been restored recently, and many places are not formal, and it is extremely difficult to do so." Then seeing that a few people didn't move, they also stood up and continued: "What happened here, I have already reported to the Dongyue Emperor's Mansion, and all fellow Daoists should already know, right?"
Several people were silent, as if they wanted to see through this Taishang Daoist.
How could such a little-known and even unheard of Scattered Cultivation Wild Dao do such an earth-shattering event, especially since this matter also implicated the lives of five true disciples of his two major sects.
It's a pity that after some efforts, he finally frowned and gave up, and he couldn't find the slightest flaw in this person.
The only flaw is probably that he is too calm, and when such a major matter is mentioned from his mouth, it is like an inconsequential trivial matter, as if the lives of the five true disciples of the two major sects are as light as a feather in his eyes, and if he dies, he will die. I didn't feel at all how great it was to exterminate the Minjiang Water Demon, and I couldn't feel a trace of pride in his tone, as if he was a person who stayed out of the matter.
"Where are the bodies of my nephews now?" the middle-aged Taoist raised his hand and pressed his sword, and asked in a deep voice, breaking the deadlock of mutual suspicion and temptation between the two sides.
Although the name and origin of this Taishang Taoist person are strange, before coming to Minjiang Water Mansion, he carefully investigated, and there is no problem with the identity of this person, just a trace of guess. Suspicion will give people a random conviction, it is completely untenable, especially this Taishang Taoist seems to have a good relationship with the gods and spirits of the earth, from the edict issued by the Dongyue Emperor's Mansion, it can be seen everywhere that the Dongyue Emperor's maintenance of this person, and he does not dare to tear his face easily, as long as this person cooperates with them and investigates the matter clearly, there is no need to settle this grudge, if the matter is really as he said, but it is his two major sects that owe him a favor, and his attitude is slightly relaxed.
And Zhang Qian still looks calm, not disturbed by the emotions of several people.
With a wave of his sleeves, four long boxes of Bai Sensen were thrown out of the storage ring in his hand, but they were simply carved coffins from cedar trunks, lined up in the main hall.
