After Guishenji died, Wu Jie originally planned to lead everyone to find Shi Huowen, but his spiritual thoughts swept across the land of Kyushu, but he frowned.
"This Shi Huo Wen is very clever!" He sneered and said to Sun Huo'er and others, "You should go back to the mountain gate first... This Shi Huo Wen's methods are very cunning. It seems that I have to take action myself."
Yin Shuang originally just stood aside and watched. Hearing this, he was stunned. His spiritual thoughts also swept across the entire Jiuzhou realm, and then he couldn't help but sneered: "It seems that he has been preparing for this method for a long time, and has always been in contact with the Jishen Ji, otherwise there will be no ghosts and gods."
As soon as Ji dies, he will be able to use this method immediately."
"Yes, they say that this guy is fierce and wild, and does things unscrupulously, but it seems that is not the case." Wu Jie said with a smile, "There is no Nine Transformations Golden Pill in today's world. If the ordinary master of the Tribulation came here, he would still be here.
There’s really nothing we can do against him!”
The two of them were talking like riddles. Qing Yangguan looked at everyone, looking at each other, and they were all a little confused.
"Martial Nephew Wu, what on earth are you talking about?" Changsun Wu couldn't help himself and asked.
Almost all of the Huandan elders who came with Wu Jie to hunt down the two murderers this time had met him before. But almost all of them were his juniors. The only ones with higher seniority were Xiao Yue and Changsun Wu. The two of them
Humans are demons and have very long lifespans. Six hundred years of time does not have much impact on them.
Oh, it still has an influence on Xiao Yue. He has been looking for a suitable Taoist companion. Five hundred years ago, he finally found the Taoist companion he wanted. He was a banshee from the Green Wolf tribe in the prairie. The banshee
She doesn't like the gentle atmosphere of Qingyang Temple, and she doesn't like to turn into human form. Instead, she likes to show her true body and run in the wilderness. Xiao Yue doesn't know
How much time and effort it took to pursue success - when Zhang Long ascended, their first child had been born, and just now when Wu Jie scanned the nine states with his spiritual thoughts, he saw a giant cyan wolf leading more than ten or more animals.
Young wolves, green or white, were running together on the grassland, leaving a group of panicked wild horses far behind, and they were extremely happy.
In contrast, Changsun Wu seems not to have been affected by time at all. His appearance is the same as before, but his temperament seems to be a little smoother - six hundred years have left only a few traces on his body.
That's all.
Unlike juniors like Sun Huo'er, eldest Sun Wu and Xiao Yue did not feel restrained in front of Wu Jie. They were the only ones who had the courage to ask questions now.
Naturally, Wu Jie would not deliberately show off to Changsun Wu. He smiled and explained: "This Shi Huowen has arranged a large formation, connecting three thousand miles of earth veins. And he himself is a key to the large formation - as long as he has a thought
, or be killed, the formation will erupt immediately, causing the area three thousand miles away to collapse and explode, and I don’t know how many lives will be destroyed.”
"Taking hostages? It's really hateful!" Changsun Wu said angrily, "We must not keep this beast! And we must not compromise with him! Otherwise, if this case is opened, more innocent people will be killed and injured!"
"Uncle, don't worry. He won't stand a chance if we, husband and wife, take action." Wu Jie said with a smile, "But we need to move directly there, and we may also have to use some special means. You haven't survived the catastrophe yet,
Witnessing those methods is harmful and useless.”
Only then did everyone understand, so they said goodbye and left, taking Guishenji's body with them back to Qingyang Temple.
This ghost has done many evil things and has countless enemies. Although he is dead, his body must be seen by those who have been harmed by him, so that they can put an end to their worries.
When everyone walked away, Wu Jie and Yin Shuang looked at each other and took a step forward. In just one step, they crossed thousands of miles and arrived at the country located to the west of the desert.
This country feels a bit like ancient Arabia, but compared with what Wu Jie saw back then, it is no longer as prosperous as that time, and wars are going on in many places.
"The reason why these people are fighting is really strange. They actually want to argue about whether the scriptures can only be explained by the monks in the temple." Yin Shuang understood the reason for their fight with a glance of his mind and said in confusion, "Such a trivial matter is too small.
Is it worth fighting?"
"The right to interpret scriptures is a big deal. Several religious wars have broken out on earth over this matter. The Orthodox, Catholics and Protestants have beaten pig brains out of people's heads so many times..." Wu Jie sighed, "Even if Islam and Christianity
, in the final analysis, it is just a fight over the right to interpret scriptures. They both believe in the same God, but one uses the Bible and the other uses the Quran... This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly. They are happy with it, and we should not interfere.
"
While the two were talking, they came to an inconspicuous small house and opened the door.
The house was empty without any furniture, but there were deep cracks in the ground. You could see magma flowing and earth air surging inside, forming a complex formation.
As far as the mind can see, this formation is connected to the energy veins of the earth, extending straight out, almost covering most of the Far West Country. Once there is a problem with this formation, most of the Far West Country will immediately erupt into chaos.
Such a disaster and become a hell on earth!
This formation is not stable, and it seems that it may collapse at any time. The core that keeps the formation from collapsing is the stone man sitting in the center of the formation, his body surrounded by flames.
"What a good design!" Wu Jie said with a smile, "You are Shi Huowen, right? This formation is so exquisite, I wonder who designed it?"
The stone man opened his eyes and looked at Wu Jie, his eyes full of doubts: "Who are you? There seems to be no such person as you among the masters in the world."
"It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that your formation... looks familiar to me." Wu Jie said with a smile, "Many years ago, an old friend of mine designed a formation similar to this.
However, his idea is that when a monk dies at the end of his life, he will put his physical body
Condensed into a treasure to replace the thousands of miles of earth, endure all kinds of disasters, thinking that you will accumulate merit in the next life. My friend's formation was to accumulate merit, but you used it in the opposite direction... Unfortunately, he has passed away long ago
, otherwise I will probably be very angry when I see what you did."
The stone man's eyes showed surprise: "What's the name of your friend?"
"His name is Xiao Buyi, but when he was alive, people generally called him 'Buyi Shenxiang'." Wu Jie said with a smile, "He is the second generation Buyi Shenxiang, and some people say he is the first generation Buyi Shenxiang Li
I don’t know whether Bu Yi’s reincarnation is true or false.”
The look of surprise in the stone man's eyes was even heavier, and he was a little more frightened: "The commoner god didn't have many friends during his lifetime."
"Well, he doesn't have many friends, but I'm definitely his friend."
The stone man looked at Wu Jie carefully, then his face suddenly changed and he exclaimed: "You are Wu Zhifei! The master of Qingyang Temple! Haven't you already ascended?"
Wu Jie smiled slightly: "Now that you recognize it is me, do you have anything else to say?"
The stone man showed a ferocious look, and a ferocious aura surged around him: "Do you know how powerful my formation is?"
"I know, of course I know." Wu Jie said lightly, "But do you know how powerful I am?"
The stone man's momentum suddenly choked and he could no longer rise. After a long time, he muttered dullly: "Being able to work my way up to the lower realm of immortals, I can be considered a worthy death..."
Wu Jie did not say irritating words such as "I was just passing by", but asked: "Now that you have finished speaking, it is my turn. I have a small personal question - is there anything in your name?"
origin?"
"Name? Origin?" The stone man looked at him doubtfully, "Why do you have to ask this?"
"I have a disciple in the upper realm who has the same name as you." Wu explained, "Shi Huowen's name is definitely not common. Although the world is so vast, it is not surprising that he has the same name and surname. But why does Cha Cha appear in this place?
Where is the Kyushu realm? I'm a little curious."
"I was originally an elf in fire. I absorbed the essence of the rock core and transformed into one. I took stone as my father and fire as my mother." The stone man said, "So my original name was 'Stone Fire'. Later I became friends with Ji Shen Ji, who is good at
Divination, one time we happened to catch an elixir-returning monk and used that guy as a sacrifice to divine a hexagram, and he suggested that I add the word 'question' after my name."
Wu Jie nodded and fell into deep thought.
If all this is purely a coincidence, he really doesn't believe it. But if it is not a coincidence, then the person behind this matter is a bit scary...
He was thinking, suddenly something came to his mind, and he turned around.
In the shadow not far away, a flaming shadow was staring at him.
"Master Zhu Rong, do you want to save him when you suddenly come here?" Wu Jie asked with his spiritual thoughts.
"Gui Shen Ji and Shi Huo Wen are the people favored by heaven here." Divine thoughts came from the shadow of the flame, "Just like Zhu Quan back then."
"Zhu Quan? I don't feel that God is so favoring him."
"That's because he met you. Tiandao pursues balance, and the most objectionable thing is a single family. In the past, the righteousness was too prosperous, and Zhu Quan came into being. He wanted to restore this situation and restore balance. Later, Zhu Quan came into being.
Quan was killed by you, and the destiny changed, forming a new pattern. But over the years, the righteous path has further developed, once again compressing the destiny of the evil path, so the way of heaven sent another person who came into being."
"...Don't beat around the bush. Guishenji is already dead. Shi Huo asked whether he wants to die or not? Please give me an accurate answer."
"Originally, no matter how powerful the righteous way is, it cannot kill them. It will eventually cause the internal division of the righteous way and the destiny will be lost. But you have once again changed the established destiny of the heaven... Maybe this is the decision of a higher level of heaven. I
The reason why I came here specifically is to tell you that heaven will no longer breed people like them in the future, and this Kyushu realm will become a world where righteousness dominates."
"What should I do if Shi Huo asks?"
"Whatever you want." The shadow of the flame disappeared.
Wu Jie turned back to look at the stone man, was silent for a moment, and then sneered.
"No matter who is behind it, since I have encountered it, I will naturally do whatever I need to do!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed it. The stone man fell down and turned into countless rubbles seeping into the ground. The unstable and huge formation changed its shape as he grabbed it, turning into the one designed by Xiao Buyi.
The prototype has absorbed most of the disaster power of the Far West Country, and it has been borne by these rubbles.
"I took away your destiny and gave you this merit. Although it cannot offset your sins over the years, it is still a small supplement." Wu Jie said, putting away the handful of luck and preparing to
After returning to the upper realm, he handed it over to his apprentice Shi Huowen.
Shi Huowen has been immersed in hard training for these years, almost never leaving the quiet room on the edge of the earth fire, and he is like a cultivator. Now his cultivation has been promoted to the peak of the Daoguo realm, and he can hit the Yangshen realm at any time, but
He felt that there was still a crucial opportunity missing, so he delayed it until now.
Perhaps, this luck from Jiuzhou's "Shi Huo Wen" is the opportunity he has been waiting for.
After solving this problem, Wu Jie sent a message to Qingyang Temple, and then came to Taoyuan County with Yin Shuang.
Taoyuan County is now equivalent to an autonomous territory of the Han Empire. Although there are officials and government offices, they hardly care about anything. Except for symbolic taxes and annual tribute, the Han government will not interfere with anything in Taoyuan County.
But six hundred years of time are no small matter after all. The Wu family cemetery, which once existed as a sacred place for the entire Taoyuan County, now has no luster of the past. Except for the descendants of the Wu and Du families and some nostalgic people, no one comes here anymore.
Sweep and worship.
Wu Jie and Yin Shuang stood in the center of the cemetery. Not far in front of them was the tomb of the old Marquis Wu and his wife. To the left of the tomb of the old Marquis Wu was the tomb of the great Marquis Wu, in which his brother Wu Cheng and his wife were buried.
The right side is no longer the thatched cottage of the past, but a small ancestral hall, built for the young Marquis Wu and his wife.
Standing here, they can feel the power of faith coming from the incense in the ancestral hall, which has been accumulated over the years by people paying homage and paying homage.
The two of them had already achieved immortality, so naturally they would not want the power of faith in the incense. With a slight smile, they sent them back and condensed them on the stone statues of Wu Jie and Yin Shuang in the ancestral hall. However, the two of them had different methods. Wu Jie
What is condensed on the statue is a ball of spiritual fire, but what is condensed on the Yin Shuang statue is a sword intent.
Inside the ancestral hall, there was an old Miao Zhu who was guarding. When he felt the changes in the stone statues, he was startled and walked out. Although he was white-haired and old, his steps were very fast and vigorous, and he walked out of the ancestral hall in two or three steps.
Seeing him coming out, Wu Jie and Yin Shuang smiled at each other and removed their invisibility spells.
The Miao Zhu looked at them blankly, hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Master? Master Wife? Didn't you ascend?"
"Just passing by... I would like to ask, Ah Xiao, you are not too old, how come you are so old?" Wu Jie asked with a smile.
Only then did Lao Miao Zhu come to his senses, smiled slightly, shook his body, and turned into a handsome young man, who was Wu Jie's third disciple Lin Xiao.
"Alas! It's a long story! After the death of the eldest brother, the second senior brother and I stayed near the cemetery. Later, the second senior brother Dancheng failed to escape the tribulation at eight turns. I have almost no acquaintances in Taoyuan County, and I don't want to go.
Qingyang view simply becomes
An old temple blessing, guarding the ancestral hall for the master and his wife..." Lin Xiao sighed, "Unknowingly, time has passed by. If you hadn't come to wake me up, master, maybe I would still be so confused...
…”
"Your cultivation has improved quite well over the years." Wu Jie said with a smile, "Being confused may not be a bad thing. If being confused can reveal your true intention and achieve the Return of Elixir, monks all over the world will probably rush to be confused!"
Only then did Lin Xiao realize that he had achieved the Return Pill without even knowing it!
He looked surprised, but quickly regained his composure.
Hundreds of years have tempered his mind, and now he is no longer the irritable young man he used to be.
"Where is Li Zixiao? My spiritual mind swept across the nine states, but I found no trace of him. Could it be that he has also survived the tribulation?" Wu Jie asked.
"Senior Brother Li... I don't know what happened to him." Lin Xiao sighed, "One day he came to me and said that he had found the ancient teleportation array left by the senior master, and he could sneak to the upper world. He planned to directly
He crossed the border illegally and asked me if I was interested. I said I would stay here to guard the ancestral hall, and he left alone."
Wu Jie was silent for a moment, shook his head and sighed.
There are indeed some ancient teleportation arrays in Kyushu. However, these ancient teleportation arrays are not only dangerous, but the places they go to are also very uncertain. Back then, Han De's brother used the ancient teleportation arrays to leave Kyushu and escaped from the evil mirror demon.
The devil's hand. But Hande has been looking for him in the Divine Gate for a long time, but there is no clue about him at all.
Li Zixiao used the ancient teleportation array to leave, fearing that Wu Jie would not have the chance to meet him again in the future.
Wu Jie sighed for a while, and an interesting thought suddenly came to his mind, and he asked: "Ah Xiao, when it comes to sneaking into the upper world, I can barely do it as a teacher. Are you interested?"
Lin Xiao was stunned and looked at Wu Jie stupidly.
He never dreamed that the master who had been ascending for many years would bring such good news when he descended to the mortal world this time!
"It is not necessarily a good thing to sneak into the upper world. The rules of the upper world are different from those of the lower world, and it is not that easy to grow up." Wu explained, "But as a teacher, I have already achieved immortality. When you go to the upper world, I can take care of you a lot."
——I can’t guarantee that you will achieve immortality, but no matter what, there will always be more opportunities when you reach the upper world.”
"Of course, there is also a disadvantage in the upper realm - if you achieve the golden elixir in the upper realm, the quality of the golden elixir will be relatively poor, and the chance of achieving immortality in the future will be much smaller than that of a monk who ascends from the lower realm... This is something that cannot be done.
As a teacher, I can only try my best to help you make up for it, but to what extent I can make up for it, I’m not sure..."
While Wu Jie was rambling on, Lin Xiao had already shown a smile and knelt down to kowtow: "Master is here, and I am willing to go directly to the upper world! Even if I can't achieve immortality, it's good to be able to serve the master!"
Wu Jie was planning to say something more to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of sneaking into the upper world. When he heard what he said, he didn't come back to his senses for a while, but it was Yin Shuang who pushed him gently and made him wake up.
He immediately laughed and helped Lin Xiao up.
"That's good! Then when I set off as a teacher, I'll take you with me!"
Having said this, he suddenly froze and had a somewhat crazy idea.
What if...we bring the entire Qingyang Temple with us? (To be continued)
