As the saying goes, you can eat mountains if you rely on mountains, and you can eat water if you rely on water.

The Yuqin Mountain Range is one of the large mountain ranges in Yunzhou. It stretches for hundreds of miles. It is home to outstanding people and beautiful places. It is a blessed place where the energy of nature gathers. It is rich in natural materials and treasures. It is a paradise for countless monsters and monsters to survive.

In the past, before the Demon Emperor Yuqin came to power, there were endless conquests here.

The powerful men with great supernatural powers competed for the earth's veins and fought for the position of mountain god in an earth-shattering battle;

The monsters below, the monks also fought hard to fight for the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the mountain. The struggle for the treasures and the battle of spirits often turned into a life and death battle, which was extremely chaotic for a time.

Yuqin Mountain has also become increasingly impoverished due to endless demands from all parties.

It was not until later that the Yuqin Demon Emperor joined forces to sworn brother Fu Hua Taoist, and Xiong Wu captured Yuqin Mountain and secured the throne of the Mountain God. The chaos was ended and basic order was established.

After the Yuqin Shrine took over Yuqin Mountain, it did not occupy Yuqin Mountain, but opened the door of convenience for all living beings.

The local mountain god has absolute control over the divine domain and holds the power to "open and seal mountains".

In order to fish without drying up the lake, the Yuqin Mountain God has not opened up all the Yuqin Mountains. Some areas have been "opened" and anyone can enter and come and go freely. The other part will be "closed" and practitioners are strictly prohibited from entering. Only those who have not yet enlightened their spiritual wisdom.

Mountain beasts are not restricted.

In the secular drama Yi Zhi story, there is a certain master who "opens the mountain with one sword", and this is what he is talking about.

But, you can’t open a mountain casually.

If you offend a tiger, he will look for trouble. If you don't have the guts to attack the mountain randomly, you are looking for death.

The God of Yuqin Mountain is a top-notch monk with great supernatural powers, and his magic power reaches the sky. Few monks dare to make trouble in his territory, randomly "open mountains" to steal heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and break his rules.

Because of this, after a period of time in the "Forbidden Mountain", natural treasures will spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain, turning into a real cornucopia with natural treasures everywhere.

It is said to be the feast of the mountain gods, but in essence it is a "land distribution meeting", a "treasure distribution meeting", or the "dividends" from the mountain closure for many years. Everyone in the Yuqin Mountain Range has a share.

Yuqin Shrine, Taoist Fu Hua, and Xiong Wu, the three great supernatural monks, are the masters of Yuqin Mountain. Needless to say, they take away 30% of the mountain each time and pick out the best and most fertile treasure land.

The rest was handed over to the major forces in the Yuqin Mountain Range.

Tianchao Yuqin County is at the top level among the major forces in the Yuqin Mountain Range, second only to the main Yuqin Palace.

It's not that Xianting was reluctant to send a powerful person with great supernatural powers to take over, but it just didn't want to antagonize the neutral Yuqin Shrine, so it maintained a certain degree of restraint.

Correspondingly, although the Yuqin Demon Emperor did not accept the imperial edict from the Celestial Court, he did give the Celestial Court generous treatment. During the Mountain God's Banquet, a large amount of land was allocated to Yuqin County each time.

Of course, there are good and bad lands. If you want to get the best treasure land, you have to rely on your ability.

Some fertile and fertile lands are rich in natural materials and treasures. One piece of land is worth several pieces. The difference is huge every time you come back.

Therefore, the overt and covert fighting at every mountain god's banquet is extremely fierce.

The Yuqin County of Dachang Dynasty is adjacent to Yuqin Mountain, and most of the monks' cultivation resources in the county also come from the Yuqin Mountains. This is why Xianting is urgently looking for candidates to manage the county.

Next, whether Yuqin County's treasury is sufficient or not, whether the monks in the county will live a good life or a hard life will depend on this Mountain God's Banquet.

If you participate in the Yuqin Mountain Divine Banquet and fail to allocate good land to Yuqin County, even if the Heavenly Court does not blame you, the subordinates of Yuqin County will probably continue to criticize you and secretly criticize their current county governor for his inability to manage the county.

.

If the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.

As the governor of Yuqin County, Wang Xi naturally understood the seriousness of the matter, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Chu Chen had successfully refined his body.

"Ling Xiao, it's up to you. Hey, I don't know why the God of Yuqin Mountain suddenly changed the rules this year. I was shocked. Fortunately, Xianting sent you Ling Xiao to take over the county capital."

"Uncle Wang, please rest assured, I will do my best."

Chu Chen smiled and his eyes fell on the banquet.

While he was talking, someone at the banquet had already come up to the stage to raise the cauldron.

Those who are qualified to participate in the Mountain God's Banquet must have at least a fifth-grade Taoist cultivation level and practice in Yuqin Mountain all year round. Only in this way can they have the opportunity to receive an invitation from the Mountain God.

The first person to take the stage was a white-faced scholar. He was handsome and handsome, but he was not good at physical strength. He stood in front of the first bronze cauldron, his mana surged, he suppressed his blush, and shook his head slowly.

For a long time, I could only lift the bronze tripod slightly.

At the end, the snow-white fox tail was exposed, but he still could not lift the bronze cauldron blessed with the power of the earth's veins, which made the guests laugh, and the banquet was full of joy.

The God of Yuqin Mountain, who was sitting on the high platform, shook his head and flew up a white warrant in front of the case:

"Inferior place! Draw lots!"

The fair-faced scholar blushed slightly: "Thank you, Master, for the reward!"

After allocating the lower-ranking land, we had to draw lots. This was undoubtedly the lowest ranking. The last piece of forest land must have been chosen by someone else. Whether it was good or bad all depended on luck. Participating in the Mountain God's Banquet was basically just a formality.

After the white-faced scholar, one after another people came to the stage to hold the cauldron.

Monsters and cultivators in the mountains walk around alone. There is no need to discuss who has achieved physical training and who should be sent out. They move quickly, one after another, on the stage to lift the cauldron.

Among them, many raised one-color and two-color bronze tripods, and performed quite well.

If you can lift the bronze tripod, you can be ranked. Those with higher rankings will be given priority.

However, there are not many casual cultivators and monsters who can lift the bronze cauldron. Only a few monsters with natural divine power and human martial arts casual cultivators who refine their bodies and shapes have successfully lifted the cauldron.

Brother Dog Lao Liu also participated, and he raised a bronze tripod with a divine light.

In fact, Lao Liu's performance was quite good. It wasn't long before he broke through to the fifth level of Taoist cultivation. His cultivation method was not specialized in physical body refining. It was extremely difficult to lift the giant cauldron that blessed the ground.

The real fierce competition does not come from casual cultivators, but from the competition between large and small forces in the Yuqin Mountain Range.

To be able to achieve success in the Yuqin Mountains, possess a certain amount of power, and have strong Taoist and magical powers, all those who take action must be at least a late-stage fifth-grade practitioner, or even a Dzogchen practitioner, and physically strong.

Not long after, people quickly raised the "three-color bronze tripod" and "four-color bronze tripod" one after another.

There were even two big demons who raised the "Five Color Bronze Cauldron", which attracted the attention of everyone in the audience. Even the God of Yuqin Mountain applauded and praised them endlessly.

One is a bull demon, whose name is "Blood Barbarian King". He has the blood of ancient barbarian bulls in his body, is born with divine power, and his physical body is extremely tyrannical;

The other end is the ape demon, nicknamed the "Eight-Armed King". Its true form is an eight-armed diamond ape, a powerful beast with a great reputation in the wilderness. It is said that it has the power to tear apart tigers and leopards not long after it is released. It has martial arts and divine powers, and is extremely powerful.

powerful.

"Ho ho ho!"

"Moo!"

After these two peerless monsters took action, the atmosphere of the entire Mountain God Banquet reached a climax, and countless monsters applauded and made friends.

Xiong Wu said with a smile: "Being able to lift a five-color bronze cauldron is already at the level of a great supernatural power in terms of strength. It is extremely rare."

Demon Emperor Yuqin and Taoist Fu Hua also nodded slightly, affirming the power of the two demons Niu and Ape.

However, Yuqin Demon Emperor did not say much, but cast his gaze on Wang Xi and Chu Chen who were standing aside, and said with a smile:

"Wang County is the governor, Chu Du is in charge, and you, Dachang Yuqin County, are the only ones who haven't taken action. I wonder which of you two will take action?"

After Yuqin Demon Emperor finished speaking, all eyes in the audience fell on Chu Chen and Wang Xi.

The Blood Barbarian King and the Eight-Armed Heavenly King also cast provocative glances at Chu Chen and Wang Xi, especially when they looked at Wang Xi, they were full of provocation.

The scholar Zhang Linsheng and the dog brother Lao Liu looked at him with concern and curiosity.

"Senior Yuqin, this junior is willing to give it a try."

Chu Chen didn't feel timid at all before the battle, so he calmly stood up and left the table, flying towards the high platform.

When Wang Xi, the governor of the county, saw Chu Chen coming to the stage, he felt quite ashamed and said through his spiritual consciousness:

"These two big demons are both alien beasts, and have learned extraordinary skills. I have fought with them before, and I can't lose to them in a serious fight. It's just a pure comparison of strength, and our human race can't match it. Ling Xiao,

Don’t feel pressured, just do your best.”

"Uncle Wang, I know."

Chu Chen smiled, and with a flash of his body, he appeared on the high platform.

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on him.

"When it comes to Taoism, magic and magical powers, the human race is indeed powerful, but in terms of strength, how can they compare? Now Yuqin County can't take the lead after all."

"This is a wonderful move by the mountain god."

"Not bad, the mountain god has good intentions."

At the mountain god's banquet, many monsters booed him and talked a lot.

Chu Chen ignored the comments of the demons at the banquet and the concern of the scholar and Lao Liu. He looked at the bronze tripod on the high platform with a faint smile on his lips.

Coincidentally, at the main seat of the banquet, Taoist Fu Hua, a monk with great supernatural powers, saw his disciple ascending to the high platform, and the same smile as Chu Chen appeared on his lips.

"Second brother (second brother), why are you laughing?"

Yuqin Demon Emperor and Xiong Wu noticed something strange about their companions and looked sideways at them one by one.

Taoist Fu Hua smiled, stroked his beard and said:

"Eldest brother, third brother, how many cauldrons do you think this Chu Duguan from the Dachang Dynasty can lift?"

Xiong Wuxin was straightforward and said immediately:

"Although he is a weak human race, I think he has practiced the superior essence-nourishing immortal skill. His physical body has been trained quite well, and his strength is not small. He is estimated to be able to lift three or four cauldrons!"

Speaking of which, Xiong Wu's evaluation was not low, and this was because of Chu Chen's fifth-grade super-grade Taoist cultivation.
