Not long after, Master Huang He returned, but he brought back some not-so-good news.

"The evil one has escaped!"

Several real Yuanshen expressions are even worse!

Several evil spirits escaped, but the evil heretics in the three levels were in bad luck and became the targets of the Dongshen Temple's liquidation.

On the ridge, Taoist Jingming commanded many monks from the Cave God Temple to block all the side paths that were running around and eliminate them in the mountain.

After Zhang Jian transformed the war spirit of the third pass of the ancient battlefield, he continued to the second pass of Hanchi Pass and the first pass of the ancient battlefield of Tianquan Pass.

It's just that most of the fighting souls in these two ancient battlefields have been devoured by the Ghost Mother, but it didn't take much effort.

However, since Zhang Jian came to the Nine Passes of Western Sichuan, he simply saved the war spirits from the ancient battlefields of other passes, which was regarded as a great meritorious deed.

Guangwuguan

Duke Cheng Guo held a celebration banquet for everyone in Guanzhong.

The four passes of Tianquan Pass, Hanchi Pass, Taiyechi Pass and Dulong Pass were recovered one after another, which also solved the danger of Guangwuguan Pass.

During the banquet, Xiong Tingwu was full of praise for Taoist Jingming and Zhang Jian.

"Dongshen Temple is worthy of being our national religion. The master of the majestic and righteous way can ward off demons by himself and avoid a catastrophe in Zhongjinzhou. I will give you a toast to the master!"

Standing on the main seat, Xiong Tingwu's face was full of boldness.

Many lieutenants also stood up and looked at Taoist Jingming with much respect.

Zhang Jian sat aside and smiled slightly. After seeing everyone finish their drinks, Xiong Tingwu turned his eyes to him again and said.

"The second glass of wine must be given to Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang has the great power of compassion and has saved countless people. I don't know how many heroes died in the Nine Passes of Xishu in those days, including my great lord. They still can't rest in peace after their death." , but were harmed by these evil heretics, who used them to harm lives and spread endless poisons. Mr. Zhang was compassionate and saved the world, and his wonderful method saved the stubborn ones. Now these sons and daughters have successfully liberated themselves, and I will respect Mr. Zhang on their behalf!"

Listening to what he said, the lieutenants next to him were a little confused at this time. They had slandered Zhang Jian a lot before.

But they still raised their glasses.

Zhang Jian stood up slowly and smiled.

"General, your words are serious, I will drink this cup to the full!"

He raised the tall bronze wine cup in his hand and drank it slightly. The whole group was enjoying themselves as the host and guest.

Zhang Jian did not take the initiative to mention the killing of the Ghost Mother at this time.

Especially when he learned from Jingming Taoist people that the reinforcements only injured two of the five intruders. The results looked very unsatisfactory, so there was no need for him to show off his reputation!

Anyway, the biggest benefit has been achieved!

With his current strength, there is no need to take credit from Dongshen Guan!

The benefits of claiming credit are outweighed by the disadvantages of self-destruction!

Taoist Jingming in the audience had a smile on his face, but he was a little sad in his heart.

The subsequent results were really beyond his expectation.

Five versus five, they severely damaged the Xuandu Ancestor in advance and forced him to withdraw from the battlefield. Later, five versus four, they unexpectedly used the Dong Shen Guan Killing Formation to severely injure Master Nie Xiang.

In the end, it was almost five against three, and the ancestor Baixiang, the Lord Fire Spirit, and the Ghost Mother were able to escape.

It can be described as anticlimactic.

If these demon souls escape this time, it will be even harder to deal with them next time.

But he still tried his best to keep a smile. As the national advisor, he coordinated the overall situation and must not reveal any clues, so as not to affect the morale of the whole army.

Zhang Jian was sitting aside. At this time, he was surrounded by other young monks from Dongshen Temple. He noticed that these young monks from Dongshen Temple and some elders looked at him with some curiosity, but most of them were extremely curious. Respect, no one is blinded by passion, jealous or provocative.

…

But at this time, on the other side, escaping from the Nine Passes of Xishu, Patriarch Baixiang approached the two realms all the way!

His figure appeared on the south bank of the canal, and his true form appeared at this time. It was a figure with an old face, and he seemed to always have a cold mask on his face.

Master Nixiang's face turned pale, and there was a faint gray light in his eyes. However, when facing the ancestor of Baixiang, he looked respectful. Looking carefully, there was a hint of fear in the depths of his eyes.

Ancestor Baixiang's old face was now filled with gloom, and the surging river water failed to brighten his mood.

"I didn't expect that there is such a huge force hidden deep in the Daqian Palace. We underestimated the enemy!"

He spoke slowly.

His losses this time were also huge.

In Tiangang Zhenren's last blow, he successfully used the peach wood puppet to escape, but was also struck by the terrifying sword of national destiny following the connection between himself and the puppet, injuring his soul.

The Sword of Luck is so magical that it cannot be easily endured.

Fortunately, Master Tian Gang had not fully understood the Sword of Destiny and entered the Dharma Realm, otherwise he might not be able to leave Taiye Pond.

The evil prime minister’s eyes flickered and he said softly:

"The ancestors of the Dongshen Cult have been moving around in recent years, and have attracted a group of casual cultivators with the benefits in their hands. Now that Daqian's luck has not yet fallen, it is not surprising that the real rogue cultivators have seen profits, so they came to help. As long as Daqian really falls apart, these real Yuanshen may not be willing to wade into this muddy water!"

"The world praises others and puts them down, but the real Yuanshen may not be able to transcend the world!"

The evil-faced man had a sneer on his face.

Ancestor Baixiang's eyes flashed with a cold light.

Said after a moment.

"Did the Ghost Mother and the Fire Spirit ever get in touch?!"

"The ghost mother has lost contact, but the fire spirit has made contact. This guy said that he wants to go into the depths of the wilderness to heal his wounds, and it is temporarily inconvenient to come to see her!"

Master Niexiang was speechless, Lord Fire Spirit was obviously afraid of the revenge of Niemo Sect and ran away in advance.

The ghost mother went even further and completely lost contact.

Ancestor Baixiang's face trembled slightly, and he said after a moment.

"Order everyone from the Yugui Sect to enter the Demon Valley within half a month. If anyone refuses, they will be killed!"

The evil-faced master next to him nodded slightly.

Patriarch Baixiang has obviously expressed his anger to everyone in Yugui Sect, but with the style of Ghost Mother, the soul of the side sect, I am afraid that he will not care about the life and death of his disciples. At this time, he has benefited, and I am afraid that he does not know where to hide to refine the war soul. .

The two evil spirit masters of the Evil Demon Sect were in a bad mood. At this time, they had no intention of staying and seeking revenge, so they planned to return to the Evil Demon Sect to make a new plan.

…

Inside Hao Capital City, Zhang Jian fell down and looked at the endless flow of horses and caravans around him. Zhang Jian smiled slightly.

The winter sun fell on him warmly. He first entered the XC area and chose a paper horse shop.

This time, all the war spirits on many ancient battlefields in the Nine Passes of Xishu were wiped out. He believed that there should be gains after entering the ancestral temple at this time.

However, before entering these paper horse shops, he used the Golden Lotus Hidden Breathing Technique to slightly change his appearance and hide his identity.

Zhang Jian searched around the XC area and found a paper horse shop called Liu Ji.

The gold and silver ingots in this paper horse shop are more exquisite and complete. As for the individual sacrificial objects, Zhang Jian plans to carve them himself.

The last time the ancestor worship was successful, Zhang Jian changed his mind and prepared to prepare some sacrifices himself, which might have miraculous effects.

After Zhang Jian came back to the No. 1 Scholar's Mansion, the whole house became lively.

Zhang Jian still completed his tasks step by step.

Every day, a part of time will be allocated for practice. In addition, he will go into Danong Temple and teach many Danong Temple officials some breeding methods, how to cultivate high-quality species, and how to select and optimize seeds.

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish!

This is the real merit!

The second step is to carve sacrifices.

Half a month later, inside the ancestral temple, Zhang Jian covered the courtyard with a map of mountains and rivers.

This time he chose to worship his ancestors alone.

After all, there is nothing to do, and it is not the first or fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, so suddenly worshiping ancestors seems a bit strange.

At this time, in front of the ancestral temple, large bundles of gold and silver ingots gradually turned into smoke and disappeared in the light of the fire.

Zhang Jian's main gaze fell on a small and exquisite thing in the brazier.

That's a gold hairpin.

To be precise, this is a formed magic weapon. Zhang Jian imitated the Milky Way Golden Hairpin of Our Lady of Yaochi in myth and legend, and refined it with some space-like runes to form a magic weapon.

In fact, it is very different from the Milky Way Gold Hairpin of the Queen Mother in myths and legends.

The only function of this magical instrument at present may be that the power of the stars in the sky can cut through a little air. Other than that, it only has the function of being sharp.

It's a small magic weapon.

Zhang Jian wanted to try to see if it would be effective after using this thing for sacrifice.

Anyway, there is actually no loss if it doesn’t work.

When Zhang Jian looked at it at this time, the 'Galaxy Gold Hairpin' in front of him slowly turned into powder. Zhang Jian noticed that it was not melted by the flames, but turned into a puff of blue smoke and disappeared.
