Chapter 15 The Secret of Sealing the Demon Cave

Ren Hong built the foundation today and ran to the human world holding a pure Yang Juntian jade ruler.

It's just that he didn't go to the town where Juntian Fairy often visited. Instead, he sent Juntian Fairy to fly to another county.

"Hey, why are you here? I don't know anyone here."

In Changshan County, not far from Lianhua Mountain, Juntian Xianling often bought books and sold fruits, and had one or two connections in this year.

But in this strange town, they could only find the largest local restaurant and prepare a banquet based on the menu.

"You don't know, but I know."

Bailu County, Tianyao Restaurant. The most famous restaurant in this county. It has a complete menu. In addition to the banquets in the palace, other banquets can be purchased.

What Ren Hong wants is a tail-burning banquet.

The Shaowei Banquet was a luxurious banquet held when scholars of this dynasty entered the imperial examination or when officials were promoted.

One of the meanings of burning its tail is that the carp jumps over the dragon gate. Its meaning is "the dragon burns its tail and goes straight up to the blue clouds", which is also the so-called "transforming from the mortal body and ascending to the gate of immortality".

This is very consistent with Ren Hong's current situation.

"Tail-burning feast?" After Ren Hong placed his order, he went to the private room on the second floor to wait. Juntian Fairy said: "When spirits and monsters take form, the tail is usually the last step to disappear. Therefore, the tail-burning feast is a transformation from the ordinary to the ordinary.

'Is this where the meaning comes from?"

"Maybe."

Ren Hong sat by the window and filled himself with tea.

He chose this banquet not only because of the occasion, but also because of a small agreement he had made with his parents.

There was no one around, and the fairy from Juntian appeared. The boy sat opposite Ren Hong, picked up the teapot and poured tea slowly by himself: "Calculate the time, I will definitely not be able to make it at noon, it will be good to prepare it in the evening."

The dozens of dishes for the Shao Tai Banquet are complex and require expensive ingredients, so they cannot be prepared in just one or two hours.

"Don't worry, Tianyao Restaurant is the number one restaurant in Bailu County. With their reserves, they will definitely be able to make it tonight."

"Seeing that you are so familiar, are you from Bailu County?"

This dynasty divided Jiuzhou into thirty-three counties. Jiuzhou included Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang, and Yong. Bailu County and Changshan County, where Lianhua Mountain is located, were both among the five counties in Jizhou.

"Well, I am from Lingyang County, Bailu County. I have been to Tianyao Tower several times before going to Kunlun Mountain."

Mentioning the past, Ren Hong was in a bad mood, and even the joy of just building the foundation faded away.

At this time, they heard whispers from next door to the private room.

"Hey, do you think Xuandu Palace will send people to catch monsters this time, will it be successful?"

"I hope those immortals can succeed, otherwise our caravan will be blocked and this business will not be good."

"Catch monsters?" Ren Hong thought of this and became slightly distracted.

Fairy boy didn't care, cracked melon seeds and said: "Are you worried about the three-headed female demon who escaped from the Demon Sealing Cave? Don't worry, just three golden elixir demon girls can't make a big splash. This world of Kyushu is the territory of Xuandu Palace."

The three sects of Kunlun, Xuandu and Biyou are the leaders in Xuanmen, but the three sects have different footholds. Biyou Palace went overseas and commanded 108 island countries in the East China Sea. The Kunlun sect based itself on the Greater Kunlun Mountains and transformed the Kunlun Ruins.

Suppressing Zhongji, it became the ancestral palace of the mountains. Xuandu Palace cooperated with the imperial court to transform Chixian Shenzhou into Jiuzhou and rule it.

Xuandu Palace has nine palaces, thirty-three Taoist priests, and seven hundred and twenty Taoist temples in Jiuzhou. The heads of the nine palaces are all Taoists, the thirty-three ministers are all Yuanshen, and the masters of the seven hundred and twenty temples all have golden elixir cultivation.

With such power, why should we be afraid of three little golden elixir demons?

"I remember when we were going down the mountain, Brother Tao mentioned that these three demons had some origins? Are there any other public cases?"

"I heard from the gossips of the Kunlun masters that these three demons seem to have some relationship with the human dynasty. Xuandu Palace sent disciples to negotiate and send the three demons to the human world for a full day."

"So, you don't have to worry about these three monsters. Besides, there is only one case of a monster escaping from Kunlun Demon Sealing Cave in three hundred years, so don't worry about it. Even if it's not you and Fan Yuchun, someone else will release the three monsters."

"One case in three hundred years? This...is this a bit frequent? Is the Kunlun seal so weak?"

"It's intentional. When the Demon-Sealing Cave was originally built, Lingshouzi deliberately left a flaw. Once every three hundred years, the flaw is revealed, and some spirits can escape, allowing them to carry the resentment of the monsters in the Demon-Sealing Cave down the mountain."

"The resentment of ten thousand demons?" Ren Hong's heart moved: "Senior Brother Lingshouzi is worried that the resentment in the Demon Sealing Cave will grow and breed evil spirits?"

If the Demon Sealing Cave prohibits the killing of Ku Lie and uses the Demon Refining Furnace to devour all the demons, these evil spirits will be resentful and will definitely form demons to break the ban for a long time. No matter what happens, they will work together to resist the Kunlun Divine Ban.

Therefore, the Kunlun Master deliberately left a loophole and released some spirits down the mountain every three hundred years to instigate the demons in the Demon Sealing Cave to fight among themselves and give them a chance to escape.

In this way, although the spirits still resent Kunlun, part of their hatred will be transferred to the escaped companions. It will also allow the escaped spirits to bring the luck of the group of monsters for three hundred years, weakening the spirit of the monster clan within the sealed monster.

Ren Hongdao: "Since ancient times, it is better to remove floods than to block them. This is the principle, right?"

"Exactly. Lingshouzi always said, 'Heaven's heart is the most merciful, and everything leaves a glimmer of hope.' So he opened a loophole to vent his grievances. If the escaped demon has a chance, he may be able to worship in Kunlun Mountain and practice."

Of course, what Juntian Fairy Spirit doesn't know is that escaping from the evil spirits once in three hundred years is itself a kind of Kunlun trial.

Let the evil spirits escape down the mountain, and then send the disciples down the mountain to eliminate the evil spirits. Let the disciples be tempered by this, so that they can become enlightened as soon as possible.

As for how to deal with those escaped spirits, it all depends on the actions of the disciples.

Some disciples felt that it was not easy to practice with spirits, so they took them under their disciples as guardian spirit beasts. Some disciples wanted to practice magic, so they took inner elixirs and used them as medicine to practice. Some disciples directly sacrificed spirits and refined them into magic weapons.

Three hundred years ago, a snake spirit and a scorpion spirit teamed up to escape from Kunlun. Soon after, Kunlun disciples went down the mountain and refined the snake spirit and scorpion spirit into the gourd magical weapon. After completing the twelve refinements, the magical weapon was promoted to the Yin-Yang Ruyi Gourd.

"But if you do this, you won't be afraid of the escaped monsters taking revenge on Kunlun?"

"Retaliation? Kunlun disciples will go down the mountain to practice after getting the Golden Pill. Which Kunlun disciple walking outside would be afraid of a Golden Pill-level spirit? Oh, I forgot, you are an exception."

"..." Ren Hong twitched the corner of his mouth, too lazy to talk to the fairy: "Can't we escape a few Yuanshen demons?"

"The Great Yuanshen Demon?" Juntian Fairy Spirit said disdainfully: "Have you ever been to the Demon Sealing Cave, have you seen the Great Yuanshen Demon in it?"

Ren Hong fell silent.

There are countless monsters in the Demon Sealing Cave, but according to Ren Hong's observation, most of them are real fire and golden elixir level monsters, and they are only a handful compared to direct disciples like Luo Yu and Zhang Feng.

"There are no great Yuanshen demons in the Demon Sealing Cave. There are a few monsters at the spirit embryo level in the sky to serve as firewood. There are not even monsters at the Zifu level, let alone the true Yuanshen demons."

"The Demon Sealing Cave in Longshou Rock is for low-level disciples to practice their skills. Sometimes, some stone demons will be captured from it and brought out for you to practice in actual combat. What big waves can be caused by escaping three little golden elixir demons?"

The Yuanshen Great Demon suppressed by the Kunlun Sect would not be thrown into a realm like Longshou Rock. Naturally, there are other more suitable realms at the Forty-Eight Peaks of East Kunlun.

Besides, the Yuanshen Great Demon is full of treasures, and Kunlun Dao Master is reluctant to send the Yuanshen Great Demon to Longshou Rock for the low-level disciples to spit out their Qi and use it as firewood.

"What kind of trouble can three escaped firewood cause? Even if they escape to the human world, they don't dare to be arrogant. Do you really think that Xuandu Palace only eats incense and does not work?"

"Having said that, the three demons were finally released because of me. I want to settle this grudge myself."

Moreover, Ren Hong had a vague feeling that killing the three demons would be helpful to his cultivation.

"Isn't this simple?" Listening to Ren Hong's words, the fairy child obeyed and clapped his hands and said: "Then we will go to Xuandu Palace to place a list and ask Xuandu Palace to help find the location of the three demons, and then we will get rid of them."

The three-headed golden elixir banshee was not in the eyes of the Juntian fairy.

Waiting until dusk, Tianyao Tower will prepare the tail-burning feast.

After the Juntian fairy paid the bill, he used the Pure Yang Law Ban to transform into a cloud bag, collected all the dozens of dishes, and took Ren Hong to Lingyang County.

"Hey, I said you don't plan to have this roast tail feast with your parents, do you?"

"is it not OK?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. Don't mortals often say 'returning home in fine clothes'? It's okay to go and meet your family. I'm just worried that you won't be able to let go of your worldly relationship, or your parents will find you a wife, which will delay your spiritual practice."

"Don't worry, this won't happen."

"Hey? Why? Don't tell me that your Taoist heart is strong or something? I have seen this kind of thing many times. Many Kunlun disciples hold their magic power close to themselves before coming down from the mountain, and their Taoist heart is strong. Then after arriving in the human world, each one becomes more greedy for the mortal world.

, resulting in one’s own Taoism falling short, and having no choice but to reincarnate and rebuild.”

"That's them, not me."

"I always said this before everything happened, and after everything happened hehe..."

The Jun Tian Immortal Spirit's expectation for Ren Hong is not that he ascend to immortality, but that he can steadily cultivate into a Yuan Shen, preferably a Dao Lord.

In this way, Ren Hong took charge of Wulian Villa and established a separate Kunlun Palace. When he ascended to the throne, he also had an explanation in front of the master, which was not considered a betrayal of Kunlun.

Therefore, Juntian Fairy Spirit was very worried that Ren Hong was delaying his practice because of distracting thoughts in the world of mortals.

"Speaking of which, why didn't you ask me to take you home when we went down the mountain? Did you plan to go back after you have achieved success in practice? Or... are you timid about being close to home?"

However, a year ago, Ren Hong did not propose to return home, which indeed satisfied Juntian Immortal.

At that time, the two of them had just escaped from Kunlun. If people thought that the two of them escaped together, there might be Kunlun monks waiting for them in their hometown.

But now that Ren Hong has completed the foundation building, he has begun to have the ability to protect himself. The two of them work together, and they are sure to escape as long as the real Yuanshen is not there in person.

"Because it's not necessary."

"Why is it unnecessary? Don't worry, we in Kunlun don't pay attention to cutting off worldly ties. As long as you are not bound by the world of mortals and hinder your own practice. You can leave a few elixirs to your parents later, that's it. Oh, it seems that neither of us are interested in it.

If I know how to make alchemy, I will assign an alchemist to Wulian Villa later."

The fairy chattered all the way, but Ren Hong thought of his hometown and looked depressed. He heard it in one ear and out the other, but he didn't hear a word.

"Huh, weird? Why haven't you arrived in Lingyang County yet?"

After flying for a long time, the fairy even turned back several times in the air and said in surprise: "I remember Lingyang County is nearby, right?"

"We've arrived." Ren Hong came back to his senses and looked at the sparkling lake below with a complicated expression: "This is it."

"Arrived? Hey... don't think I don't know. Although I rarely leave Kunlun, when the master was still alive, I was also an expert in traveling across China. Lingyang County is a thousand-year-old city. I came here with Master Yuxu in the early years

Pass."

The boy recalled Lingyang County in his memory: "I remember the master once mentioned that Lingyang County was built by one of his named disciples, and that the named disciple would be here in the future. So the master deliberately left a bell tower..."

Hearing the bell tower, Ren Hong's expression changed slightly and he clenched his fists subconsciously. He said in a deep voice: "The big lake below is Lingyang County. Let's go down first."

"This is Lingyang County?"

The lake surface glowed orange with the sunset, and no trace of the town could be seen at all.

"Yes, this is Lingyang County. After an earthquake, the ancient city turned into a lake." Ren Hong tried his best to make his tone calm, but Juntian Fairy still heard a little sadness in his words.

earthquake?

Juntian Fairy remembered in a daze that the reason why Ren Hong went to Kunlun Mountain with a few companions was not to become a serious disciple, but because his family suffered a great disaster and was rescued by Kunlun disciple Zhang Feng.

But if he thinks this way, his family members might...

"You ask me why I didn't come back to visit my parents a year ago. Because to me, it makes no difference at all whether it's one year earlier or one year later."
