In the Yin Ping Lady Temple, inside the statue of Zhenwu, Ji Xiang is refining the Finger of Chandala. The demonic energy of Zhui is refined into the black finger by Ji Xiang without hesitation. In this way, he really encounters a powerful opponent.
Using this finger, just touching it once can not only make the opponent fall to a lower level temporarily, but also make his Taoist heart turn back.
If the Taoist heart retreats, if it is not stopped in time, the next step will be that the Taoist heart will be broken. Anyone whose Taoist heart has retreated will have a sharp decline in their Taoist behavior and character, and even the good deeds they have obtained will decline. In serious cases, they may even retreat from immortality.
Mortal world.
In Taoism, such immortals have a special name - Exiled Immortal!
"In mythological stories, immortals make mistakes and are demoted to the mortal world, which is the banishment of immortals. Such immortals are caused by the retreat of Taoism."
"The retreat of the Taoist heart will cause immortals to be contaminated by worldly thoughts, so that they will fall into the dust and no longer have the means to return to heaven. They can only wander around in the world of mortals. Finally, they will lose themselves in the mortal world and lose the form and spirit of immortals.
Become an ordinary human being in the world."
The fusion of the black finger and the demonic energy is successful, the refining is completed, and the fingertips are wrapped with fire and lightning. This is the power of pursuing the demonic god, but it only manifests for a moment and disappears in a flash.
Ji Xiang still does not trust Peacock Daming King at present, and in the description of the blank divine card, there are two choices for how to deal with this demonic energy. If it is handed over to Daming King, it can help him further escape from Abi Hell, but if
Refined into this severed finger, the connection between the Great Ming King and the severed finger will be reduced.
"I want to get a useful magical weapon, not to release an evil demon into the world. King Ming claimed to have fallen into hell, but how could a Buddhist protector be knocked down so easily?"
"Perhaps he snatched the throne of King Ming from someone else."
It is normal to have the ability to exorcise gods, and to have higher-level magical powers to seize other people's divine thrones. Didn't Emperor Jiajing also seize the divine throne of Taishang Laojun?
It takes skill to be able to snatch such a huge position of God away just as quickly as you want.
Besides, strictly speaking... I also have the skill to seize the god's throne, but this skill is a passive skill belonging to the blank god card.
The skill to seize the throne of God is an advanced ability, but it is by no means unique.
Sure enough, after Ji Xiang finished refining the black finger, the aura of Peacock Daming King he felt from above was much less. And he has not yet had the need to activate the Hell Mark of the Vulgar Vajra, so Peacock Daming King cannot contact him on his own initiative.
After completing this important matter, the next step is to restore the incense in the temple. Now the Qiantang County magistrate has sent officers to stand guard at the door, and normal pilgrims dare not come in. This has greatly affected the recovery speed of Ji Xiangxing Shen.
"I need a huge amount of incense, how can I let you make this temple so deserted?"
Looking at Miss Yin Ping again, this lady seems to be confused about Master Jingxian going home alone before, and she is still trying very hard to remember.
Although Ji Xiang was also puzzled by the old monk's sudden departure, he could roughly feel that the old monk probably used some fortune-telling method to predict that there would be some problems during this trip, so he hurried home.
If there is no problem on this trip, he should take Lady Yin Ping with him normally. So if he goes back, then there will definitely be a problem. Therefore, he must use two methods, either bring weapons or recruit more people before going.
As the saying goes, a large number of people gives you confidence. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers standing behind you, you still feel that you are much stronger than the opponent's flying and leveling masters. This is the confidence brought by a large number of people.
Lady Yin Ping frowned: "Who is the founder of Yulong Taoist Academy? I have been here for two hundred years, and I seem to have never seen him before."
"On my way to Phoenix Mountain, he saw my ability and then told Lingyin Temple. Why did he tell Lingyin Temple?"
"Isn't this a trap? But if it is a trap, taking me and the master of Lingyin Temple into his trap, are you looking down on me or the master of Buddhism?"
As the daughter of Yue Fei, she has been wielding knives and guns since she was a child, and has a special intuition for danger. Moreover, her remnant soul has been wandering for more than three hundred years, and it has been two hundred years since she became a god. This Silver Ping Lady Temple is even more
It was established during the Yuan Dynasty. Although she was trapped in the temple and could not leave too far away, in Qiantang County, all kinds of people have encountered it for more than 200 years, and intrigues have also happened.
Happens often.
However, this matter seems very simple, but in fact it is extremely strange. There are many things that do not make sense. For example, why did the founder of Yulong Taoist Temple go to Lingyin Temple first? The masters of Lingyin Temple seemed to be the same as him.
He didn't look like he knew him.
Since they are not friends, why did you notify them immediately?
Is it because there are some terrible monsters under the Phoenix Mountain Palace?
Lady Yin Ping frowned: "If there is such a monster, that's the one I have to deal with, but she shouldn't be worthy of the attention of Lingyin Temple and Yulong Taoist Temple..."
"It seems that I have to go to Phoenix Mountain again. There must be secrets in that place that I haven't discovered yet!"
"But next time you go, be prepared."
Lady Yin Ping was quite concerned about the fact that she almost died in Phoenix Mountain, so she couldn't help but look at the Zhenwu Statue. Was the power lent to her by the Zhenwu Statue then the power of Buddhism? No, that power was clearly the Zhenwu Great Curse.
It is the absolutely pure power of Taoism to subdue demons.
But she did not have any doubts about the Zhenwu Statue. After all, it could help her at a critical moment. This was enough to identify the Zhenwu Statue's "camp."
"I have been cultivating the statue with incense for decades, and finally the Emperor's spiritual will comes to me in person. I will borrow this power from you!"
After she finished speaking, she did not return to the statue to practice. Instead, she walked outside the temple door and called to the guard on guard:
"There will be heavenly fire burning the temple here. You should go back separately first to avoid any problems."
The officers were a little puzzled and frightened: "What are you talking about? Your temple has never caught fire in decades. Are you going to burn down your own temple? But why?"
"Conquer demons and eliminate demons."
Lady Yin Ping waved her hand and used magic to drive away several servants. The servants' bodies suddenly lost control and ran away on their own. This is a basic use of divine power, commonly known as "ghosts on the body".
Gods can imitate the behavior of ghosts and use magic power to control the bodies of mortals to act, so there is no problem at all in driving away a few ordinary people. If they are monks, this technique of divine power will not have any effect.
"The best way to improve your strength in a short period of time is to attract a powerful god!"
Lady Yin Ping looked at the high sky or the great earth. Even though she was a minor folk god, after she gave up her divine status and returned to the wandering soul state, she could still lead to a new divine status.
!
However, gods are resistant to thunder and calamity and heavenly fire, including the good deeds obtained from the body, which can help cultivate divine power and even eliminate disasters and calamities.
But the wandering soul is a completely yin object. If she does this, it will be equivalent to giving up all the good deeds she has gained after becoming a god, and using the body of yin object to compete with the pure and pure yang, the most powerful and powerful thunder calamity sky fire.
!
Ji Xiang was also surprised: "Although overcoming tribulations is a test of life and death, fire tribulations and thunder tribulations will not appear under normal circumstances. Although taking the initiative to lead the tribulation will be easier than passively entering the tribulation, the evil object itself
, cannot withstand the training of such a huge Yang Qi.”
"However, if you can get through it, you will truly shed your body as a people's god and ascend to the Thirty-Six Heavenly Righteous Gods."
After all, there are limits to being a folk god. Folk gods rely on the incense or wishes of the people to exist. The more believers they have, the more powerful they become, and the gods are closely connected to them. It can even be said that they themselves are conscious gods.
The position is the "god" itself.
Therefore, the incense of the folk gods is strong, but the incense of the gods is sporadic. Firstly, there are many gods, and secondly, there are few holy manifestations.
In this land, only gods that appear frequently will be believed by the people. Those gods from the pre-Qin era have long been no longer believed in.
Ji Xiang recalled some situations in Dafuli. Although the gods of the pre-Qin Dynasty still retained their powerful divine power, they had almost no incense. Since there was no incense to pick up, Ji Xiang basically did not hang around them.
"Should I be a giant in terms of incense, or a poor man in terms of faith? I think the people of all dynasties have already made their choice..."
Ji Xiang couldn't help but secretly complain.
It is difficult for people to do things, and it is also difficult for gods to do things. If the people's gods want to expand their power, they will inevitably have battles with other gods about incense.
At this time, Lady Yin Ping was talking to herself. Although she had no heartbeat and was a remnant soul without a physical body, her thoughts were still filled with tension and fear.
Don't be afraid that it's fake.
"Although our foundation is weak, our potential is huge..."
There is still a lot of room for the development of folk gods. On the contrary, if no one guides the thirty-day gods, it means that they will not be able to show their holiness in the human world. In this way, their incense will become less and less, which will lead to
The reason for this vicious cycle is that those ancient gods were too powerful, and it was difficult for future generations of monks to meet their standards for induction...
Moreover, not everyone thinks that having a god is a good thing. When the imperial court monopolizes most of the gods, it is really difficult to attract a god who is satisfactory and powerful at the same time.
Lady Yin Ping murmured to herself, and Ji Xiang finally understood some of the situation.
No wonder the gods in the imperial court are weak, and there are no powerful gods outside. Even if there are, they are masters sent by Li Shanhe, or they are "hidden masters" who hide among the people and dare not show their faces.
"I remember that Emperor Wanli seemed to have said this. The imperial court had a secret method that could transfer gods to mortal bodies. Therefore, there was no need to practice, and mortals could immediately become divine generals..."
"So, in general, the imperial court itself cannot attract powerful gods, but it also has secret methods that restrict others from being able to attract them. As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell, and I have to pull him to go to hell.
Let’s all go to hell together…”
"Damn it, that's how the end of the law was created... But there are always some cheating players in this world. If you don't allow it, don't allow it. I just want to go against the imperial court..."
Ji Xiang can understand this kind of behavior, but he doesn't particularly agree with it. After all, he is also a monk...
"Speaking of which, when I took over the karma of the gods, I didn't feel any obvious pressure at first, but later on, with my immortality in the Ascension Realm, I actually felt the pressure when I was in the twelfth position of the heaven.
With so many difficulties, I can’t even get into the top ten. Maybe this is also the influence of the imperial court’s secret method..."
"Those mortals in Bei Zhenfu all have the divine status of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Heavenly Division, but the owner of my dignified Ascension Taoism is still a monk and can only hold the Heavenly Division Twelveth. This seems to be a problem. It turns out that
That’s the problem.”
Ji Xiang clapped his hands, suddenly enlightened.
No wonder I was so depressed at the time.
It turned out that the imperial court was causing trouble.
For the folk gods, the more they are contaminated with the mortal world, the more closely they will be connected with it. With the incense and wishes contributed by believers for thousands of years, it is completely possible to compete with the gods in the sky, because they themselves can also continue to do so.
of practice.
So in the later stage, even if the court has high-level divine generals, the divine power that mortals can exert is limited. If they come to attack these folk gods, the result will be "I haven't done anything, and you will fall." The gods will be defeated by the mortals.
The gods of the people fought back.
"The imperial court is beginning to collapse on its own, and for the sake of its own rule, everyone must work together with me to defeat it..."
"But as long as the reception cannot be completely prevented, the powerful divine power will still descend from the Dafu Li Tu... The most indispensable thing on the road of spiritual practice is genius!"
Watching the flames rolling in the sky, and the Yin Ping Niangzi Temple starting to light up, these flames will not really burn down the building, at least under the current circumstances, the flames have not been completely released from the Big Fuli.
"She is not in the Ascension Realm, so she cannot enter Fuli to be escorted like me. It is very dangerous for mortals to be escorted. If she cannot withstand the divine power, the illusions manifested in the Great Fuli will become reality."
"If she fails to seize him, her temple will turn into a sea of fire...Eh? Wait a minute, she will receive the god of fire in the place where the incense of Emperor Zhenwu is at its peak?"
Emperor Zhenwu has the function of warding off fire. At the beginning, Lord Fire tried to find a way to get the statue of Zhenwu in Longde Palace to the warehouse before he could set fire to it unscrupulously in the Forbidden City.
Ji Xiang nodded.
Very good, your fire prevention awareness is indeed very good.
Just because you think so highly of me, I, Ji Xiang, will help you take the throne today! Don’t worry, everyone in the sky is my old acquaintance!
"You are also a great fighter. If you can take over the position of a powerful god, I will have more confidence in fishing this time, and you can also become the replacement of Lord Fire."
"That murderous and resentful woman cannot be a folk god of fire!"
The scent of incense wrapped around Ji Xiang's body, causing yellow light to rise and white clouds to linger outside the statue of Zhenwu.
