"Is Taoist Fellow Qin nearby? Can the Taoist Master contact him now?"
The first person Lu Zhang asked about was Qin Sang.
Qin Sang was a little surprised. He couldn't take Lu Zhang directly to see the deity, so he said vaguely: "Fellow Daoist Qin has been in seclusion for many years. It is the most critical time. We can only send the news to Daoist Qin's cave. As for when Daoist Qin will have free time."
, it’s hard to say. Moreover, even if Fellow Daoist Qin receives the news and rushes over, it will take some time... Fellow Daoist Lu’s matter is urgent?"
Now is not the critical moment for me to hit the bottleneck. I can get out, but it must be an extremely important thing.
Hearing what Qin Sang said, Lu Zhang's expression was obviously disappointed, "The most lacking thing right now is time. There is no time to waste. Otherwise, Lu can go back to the mountain gate first and ask the master brother to come out. I originally thought that Qin Taoist friend Xu Shi and Taoist Master
When we travel together, we can rely on fellow Taoist Qin's ability to see through illusions."
Qin Sang said "Oh" and suddenly felt enlightened.
I defeated the Liuxu Sect Chenghuanzi, and destroyed the Liuxu Mountain with one hand of swordsmanship, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that there must be other magical powers to break the illusion, and only then can the true identity of Chenghuanzi be accurately revealed.
Cheng Huanzi is the master of a sect, and his cultivation level is not weaker than any of them. There are probably not many people who can easily crack Liuxu Mountain.
Unfortunately, this is the ability of Tianmu Butterfly.
As the original insect Gu of the deity, the Tianmu Butterfly is closely related to the deity and is very helpful for practice and breakthrough. Even if the Tianmu Butterfly has the ability to hide and save its life, it is impossible for the incarnation to run around with it.
Lu Zhang sighed and explained: "I have practiced a Taoist skill. If I can master the Taoist skill, I can feed back the skills, but I have been stuck at the last level for many years. If I want to master the Taoist skill, I need to find some rare ones in the world.
At least one of the rare objects was refined into my body. My master used to know the whereabouts of one of the rare objects, but something unexpected happened and I couldn't get it. Over the years, my master has also helped me search for it, and I have been disappointed many times.
Lu has almost given up on this path. Unexpectedly, this time he got a clue unexpectedly on the Chinan Island Chain, but the opportunity is fleeting and he must leave as soon as possible. There is no time to ask for help from the master..."
Hearing this, Qin Sang probably understood the whole story, "Is this thing proficient in the art of illusion?"
"That's right, magical objects hide themselves. These rare and rare objects are born with the instinct of self-protection. Even if you know their whereabouts, it is not easy to find them. I have a magic weapon called Baose Ling. It is a strange magic weapon and has the ability to break illusions.
Ability, but after all, it is not specialized in this way, it is not as good as Taoist friend Qin’s magical power, and it is a bit troublesome to use."
As he spoke, Lu Zhang touched his palm on his waist, golden light flashed in his palm, and something appeared.
Just looking at the appearance, the Baose Bell does not look like a bell, but is similar to a tower shape.
The Baose Bell is generally square in shape, and its outer layer is surrounded by ripples. The ripples are neat, like layers of a tower stacked on top of each other, gradually narrowing upwards.
The interior is empty and there is no bell.
Lu Zhang poured his true energy into it, and the precious-colored bell did not move, but a crisp ringing sound was heard. Along with the ringing sound, circles of precious light visible to the naked eye rippled.
"This treasure uses this precious light to dispel illusions. Fellow Taoists have also seen that in order to ensure sufficient power, the range must be limited, and it must be activated with true energy at all times. When activated, the wave created by the Baose Bell
It can't be hidden. It would be nice if I could find that rare object as soon as possible. It takes too long. I'm worried that I will consume too much and cause trouble." Lu Zhang put his fingers together and put away the treasure bell. "Can Taoist Master accompany me?
A trip? This thing is hidden deep in Nanzhou, close to the border of Manzhou. Bu Nian Shan rarely sets foot there. Mr. Lu is not familiar with the place and needs a helper."
The two Nanman states and the four North states are far apart, and they are located at the southernmost tip of the Zhongzhou continent.
Qin Sang had never been to the two southern barbarian states before.
From the Chinan Island chain, you can go straight west to Nanzhou.
Manzhou is located in the southwest of Nanzhou. It is said to be the most extensive and sparsely populated state among the Nineteen Prefectures.
Lu Zhang could not find a better helper for a while, so in order to persuade Qin Sang, he did not hesitate to promise a huge treasure, "The Taoist master is proficient in the magical power of the ice way, and the master brother happens to have a strange cold crystal in his hand, which contains an extremely sinister...
If the Taoist priest can refine the cold evil spirit of Han, he can use his magical power to add the cold evil spirit. No matter whether it succeeds or not this time, I will ask for the cold crystal from the head brother as a reward. If the Taoist priest does not need the cold crystal
, as long as you ask for it, I will do my best."
After listening to Lu Zhang's description, Qin Sang couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Over the years, Bingso Divine Light has made slow progress, and the right path will most likely not work.
Qin Sang had already come up with the idea to learn from Liuli's original method and find a new way to use the treasures from Zhihan Zhiyin to pile them up until it was completed.
The Ice Soul Divine Light is one of the most powerful magical powers that Qin Sang has seen since he started practicing. Even if he reaches a later stage in the future, it can still provide great help.
The cicada sloughs of Yinli Pearl and Eight-Winged Heart Cicada are hard to come by.
Other treasures may not be suitable for the Ice Soul Divine Light, and Qin Sang is not sure, so he can only try little by little. The special treasure like Han Crystal is exactly what he needs.
Qin Sang hesitated a little, asked Lu Zhang about various details, and after weighing the pros and cons, decided to accompany Lu Zhang.
Lu Zhang was overjoyed and stood up immediately. He couldn't wait to say: "If Taoist Master has nothing else to do, how about setting off now?"
Qin Sang returned to the quiet room, called Zhou Ruan and his wife over, and told them to stay in the East China Sea and watch. After conquering Lan Jiao, their safety could be guaranteed as long as they did not provoke Yuanying.
After burning the incense, Qin Sang and Lu Zhang left Fangshi and rushed to Nanzhou.
…
Shuonan Port.
The largest seaport in Nanzhou.
Bu Nian Shan has a stronghold here.
Qin Sang and Lu Zhang flew to Shuonan Port without stopping for a while, found a stronghold, and after adjusting their breath for a while, they asked for a map of Nanzhou and set off again.
This time, their direction was southwest.
Going deep into the hinterland of Nanzhou, the various sights he saw gave Qin Sang a sense of familiarity.
He soon remembered that the source of this feeling was actually the western border of the Canglang Sea Witch God Continent, where he fell after teleporting from Ziwei Palace.
They're all the same poor places.
Mortals live in villages, with inconvenient transportation, closed environment, and lack of opportunities to communicate with the outside world. Only the northern area closest to the six states of Jiangzuo is considered normal, and most of the sects in Nanzhou are gathered there.
the difference is.
This place is not barren, but the miasma is everywhere, it is colorful, and dangers can be seen everywhere, which can even threaten immortal cultivators.
Lu Zhang smiled and said: "Does the Taoist believe that Nanzhou is not worthy of the reputation of the Nineteen Prefectures of Misty Rain? When I have the opportunity to go to Manzhou, I will know that compared with Manzhou, Nanzhou is a good place. Manzhou is often several kilometers in diameter."
There are no traces of people for thousands of miles, and it is even more desolate than the Northern Wilderness. Someone has long suggested that the two southern barbarian states are not worthy of being placed alongside the other seventeen states and should be kicked out. However, legend has it that this was not the case for the two southern barbarian states a long time ago..."
Lu Zhang couldn't explain what this place was like before.
On the way, they passed several markets.
Qin Sang noticed that the further into the hinterland of Nanzhou, the more Nanzhou monks became proficient in poison poisoning due to the environment, and their methods were similar to those of the three masters of the Leng family.
They are most likely from the two southern barbarian states, and this is probably the source of the Gu God Cult.
Qin Sang told this discovery.
Lu Zhang was convinced, "The development of the Gu God Cult in the two southern barbarian states will indeed not attract too many people's attention. After we get the treasure, we will stay for a few days to find out the origin of the Gu God Cult."
When they arrived at the border between Nanzhou and Manzhou, as Lu Zhang said, the population was even sparser.
Lu Zhang held several Kanyu maps in his hand, turned them over and over to verify them for a long time, and finally confirmed a direction.
It flew between the mountains for more than half an hour.
When he was approaching his destination, Qin Sang inadvertently caught a glimpse of a mortal village below. He let out a light sigh and pressed the light escape button.
Noticing Qin Sang's actions, Lu Zhang in front also stopped and followed Qin Sang's gaze.
This cottage is very large, built on the bank of the river at the foot of the mountain, with layers of stilted bamboo buildings spreading all the way to the top of the mountain, almost covering the entire hillside.
The top of the mountain is a huge boulder, very flat and a naturally formed stone platform.
There are no extra buildings on the stone platform, only a wooden sculpture is placed on the north side, and a fire pit is dug out in the middle of the stone platform.
As night fell, the fire pit was filled with firewood, burning red.
The wind on the top of the mountain was strong, and the wind helped the fire. The flames shot up several feet high, and the sparks were blown into the air by the wind. The stars were like a river of stars, flying far and wide.
Today may be a special festival in the village.
In the village, everyone, men, women, old and young, gathered on the stone platform.
The dew is heavy and the night is cold.
Perhaps the chill was dispelled by the fire pit. These people did not feel cold at all. They danced a weird dance around the fire pit and gave out a rhythmic shout, as if they were completing some kind of sacrifice.
After a while, these people all knelt down on the ground, facing the statue to the north, and shouted in unison.
"Vacuum Fairyland."
"Vacuum Fairyland."
…
His voice and expression were full of fanaticism.
This is a world where immortal cultivators exist.
A monk in the Qi Refining Stage can dominate the mortal world. As long as he is willing, he can give out a few healing elixirs and talisman water, which can indeed alleviate the pain. It is a simple matter for ignorant mortals.
Let mortals worship and worship for their own enjoyment.
Zhongzhou has strict management by various factions, and there is no soil for evil spirits to breed. This is different in remote areas like the two southern states.
Similar situations are common in the world.
However, it was the statue that caught Qin Sang's attention.
The carving of the statue is very rough, the body shape is thin and extremely uncoordinated, and the face has no facial features and is a smooth plane, which is very weird.
The most bizarre thing is the crown on the head of the statue, with five jade pieces inserted in it.
Naturally, these jade pieces cannot be good jade, they are turbid and rough, but regardless of shape or color, they can match the pattern on the back of the Gu Shen Token.
"Is this the Gu God Cult?"
Qin Sang was surprised.
I didn't expect to find traces of the Gu God Cult so easily, and even more unexpected that it would be in an ordinary mortal village.
If the Gu God Sect only preached in the mortal world in the two southern barbarian states, it is no wonder that not many people noticed them. However, if the Gu God Sect with the Nascent Soul protector bewitched these mortals, what good would it do to them?
Qin Sang thought of the Gu God Order.
He did not disclose this matter to Lu Zhang.
The whereabouts of the Zhongzhou Transformation God are unknown, and I don’t know what direction the situation in the world of immortality will develop in. After I have achieved success in cultivation, I am fully qualified to stand on my own and watch the general trend of the world. There is no need to be tied to Bu Nian Shan early.
There may not be opportunities to cooperate with the Gu God Sect in the future.
Qin Sang made an excuse and pointed at the crown on the statue's head, telling Lu Zhang that the statue might be related to the Gu God Cult.
Lu Zhang did not understand the Gu God Sect's intention, so he activated his consciousness and scanned the statue several times. It was indeed just an ordinary wooden sculpture, not a legal weapon, and had no special power.
"Vacuum Fairyland."
"Vacuum Fairyland."
…
Mortals are still shouting, as if they are immersed in a fantasy world. There is only this word over and over again, but no one chants the name of Gu God.
At the end of the sacrifice, an old man who was probably the leader of the village lit a stack of yellow talisman papers and ordered people to mix it into talisman water for everyone in the village to share.
Then everyone went home satisfied.
"It's not a magic talisman. It has no effect. These people just drank a lot of gray water," Qin Sang shook his head.
A village can't explain anything.
The two of them didn't stop anymore and flew for a while, arriving at the top of a mountain.
The mountains here are very steep, but they are very common in the two southern states.
Ahead is a rare flat basin. There is not a single normal plant in the area for thousands of miles. There is a rotten smell everywhere, and there is no sense of life.
At night, the miasma rises, and wisps of miasma appear out of nowhere. They have accumulated a thick layer in the basin and are spreading upwards rapidly.
It is conceivable that by late night, this place will be completely blocked by miasma.
"It should be right here."
Lu Zhang looked ahead and said.
There was a green bead in his hand. The bead was green but opaque, with a soft surface and looked like the seeds of some kind of flower or plant.
"Can't you find the stone toad through this phantom seed?"
Qin Sang looked at the beads and asked.
What Lu Zhang was looking for was a strange thing called a stone toad.
This kind of stone toad is born and raised by heaven and earth. It is said that it is transformed from stone and has the ability to transform naturally.
The stone toad absorbs the purple energy of heaven and earth all year round, gradually matures, and finally transforms into a purple-striped spiritual toad. At that time, it can develop spiritual wisdom and become a real living being.
The purple-striped toad comes and goes without a trace, which is more effective, but almost impossible to catch.
This was also the reason why Lu Zhang was so eager. What he was looking for was a nearly mature stone toad.
The process of the stone toad breathing purple gas will cause special phenomena. If there is a threat approaching, it will spread spores disguised as a kind of seeds called phantom flowers - phantom seeds.
The appearance is almost identical, and the functions are similar.
If the Nascent Soul cultivator doesn't know what's going on, he won't be able to tell the difference.
Without the need for sacrifice, the infusion of true energy can generate illusions, which can also play a role in fighting spells, which is very attractive to low-level immortal cultivators. Obtaining the phantom seed is like obtaining a treasure, and you don't know that you have missed the real treasure.
The closer the stone toad is to maturity, the more powerful the spores it spreads.
The one in Lu Zhang's hand can already be transformed into a house or courtyard, which is almost the best.
When a Nascent Soul monk shared a rare object, he showed it to Lu Zhang. Lu Zhang saw that it was not a phantom species but a stone toad spore, and he tricked it out.
Lu Zhang shook his head, "The stone toad spread the spores, and the golden cicada completely lost contact after it shed its shell."
