Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 308 It smells so good

The barbecue was sizzling under the roaring bonfire.

The air is filled with the aroma of barbecue, making people unable to help but take a deep breath, as if they want to keep this tempting aroma on their noses forever.

The militiamen sat around the fire, each of their faces filled with satisfaction and joy.

Some were flipping the meat on the grill, some were preparing the seasoning, and others were sharing their interesting stories with each other.

The stars in the night sky seemed to be attracted by the warm firelight. They flashed even brighter, as if adding brilliance to this bonfire feast.

Occasionally the wind blows, bringing with it distant roars and rustling sounds of leaves, adding a bit of solemnity and liveliness to this quiet night.

This is the scene in the mountains and forests outside the No. 2 Underground Palace Camp.

As the ghost wolf pack was tracking them, Yihuo led the team to the No. 2 underground palace just in case.

As the landlords, the wolves had to entertain the guests well, so there was a scene of bonfires, the aroma of barbecue, and exclamations from time to time.

As for the origin of the exclamation, it was caused by Da Niu and his friends bragging to the hunting team that set the trap.

"Little Wolf, you should retreat tomorrow depending on the situation. The ghost beast army is getting closer and closer to the underground palace camp. It will not be good if we are blocked in the underground palace. Besides, there are few defensive forces in the village." Yihuo said to Yilang.

"Okay," the Wolf didn't say, "We'll stay and fight alongside you." Instead, he nodded in agreement.

"Haha, I'm back." Heizi came back with a roar.

"Boss, how many ghost birds did you catch?" asked the barbecue cube.

Hanzi was eating barbecue, his mouth full of oil, not afraid of the heat at all.

"Haha, there are only two left, and they were all caught by me, Heizi. I won't say anything more. I have to go back and ask the master to transform the ghost beasts." Heizi flew towards the underground palace.

In the pavilion on the rock peak, Shang Liangshan, the old clan leader, and Taoist Liu were all stunned when they saw the ghost birds caught by Heizi, simply because their appearance was so distinctive.

For example, the first one is a ghost bird with a snake tail.

The second one is even more outrageous, with a bird's body and a rat's head.

The third ghost bird beast. Just when Shang Liangshan and the other two nodded, thinking it was a real ghost bird, two scarlet eyes suddenly stretched out from its belly and looked around.

The fourth one was even more outrageous. It had three bird heads and two small bird heads. It looked a bit weird and soft, shaking all the time, looking very soft and weak.

The fifth one is a normal bird, except for one extra leg.

The sixth one has a snake body and a bird head.

The seventh one has bat wings and a bird body.

The eighth and ninth are of the same species as the seventh.

The tenth one is even more distinctive. It has an eagle's body but a turtle head.

Is it the turtle that is disturbing the eagle, or is it the eagle that is disturbing the turtle?

The old patriarch's mouth twitched as he watched, unable to bear to look at it, and he said, "The appearance of the ghost bird beast is really bizarre."

"Haha, this time we have really broadened our horizons." Liu Weizi said happily.

Shang Liangshan did not comment on this. His eyes were fixed on the three-legged ghost bird, studying the function of its third leg.

"Master, please help to change it." Heizi requested impatiently.

The way he won the hearts of his younger brothers was just like a man's true nature.

"Okay." Shang Liangshan nodded. He became interested in the transformation of the ghost bird. In the blink of an eye, a dark purple light from thousands of homes shot into the body of the ghost bird with a snake tail.

"Cry" dark purple flames shot into the ghost bird's body and exploded, causing it to scream in pain, and the transformation began.

The hissing sound, accompanied by the howling of the cold wind, turned into the howling of ghosts and wolves, which shocked the hearers and made them lose all their sleepiness.

This was done intentionally by Shang Liangshan. As things have been too peaceful recently, the military and civilians have been waiting for a while.

With a "crackling" sound, the ghost bird with a snake tail made a hissing sound that became weaker and weaker, but the fire became more and more fierce. Under the curious gaze of the old patriarch, under the inquiring eyes of Liu Weizi, and under Heizi's expectation.

The ghost bird's body turned from solid to virtual, transforming into a dark purple fireball the size of a fist.

"Burned to death?" the old patriarch asked doubtfully.

"He is indeed dead. His body has turned into essence and his soul has been ignited and recast. If he survives, he will be reborn. If he can't survive, he will just be a ball of energy." Liu Weizi answered.

"Haha, it smells so good." Heizi, who was standing on the back of the chair, smelled the inexplicable fragrance and was intoxicated with a bird-like face.

Seeing this, the old patriarch happily asked it, "Do you want to eat or do you want a younger brother?"

"Haha, this...this..." Heizi was in trouble, but soon a strange roar came from the dark purple fireball and made the choice for him.

In the dark purple fireball, there was a dark purple firebird that was reborn from the flames. It absorbed the energy of the fireball and its figure quickly became real. It looked 70% like Heizi.

"Haha, I can't eat this now." Heizi wiped his mouth with his wing, feeling both disappointed and happy.

This scene made the old patriarch and Liu Weizi burst into laughter.

Shang Liangshan couldn't help but smile.

The firelight dimmed, and a stupid little night owl stood in the air.

Shang Liangshan waved his hand and sent it to the Huawai Dojo for nurturing. He shook his head and said, "The energy is too complex. Refining it can only barely maintain the third level of strength."

"Master, level three will be enough. Heizi will feed it later, and it will surely grow quickly."

"It seems that you have gained a lot this time." Shang Liangshan smiled and continued to refine the ghost bird.

The first five were based on Heizi as the motherboard, and the last five were based on Yingyi as the motherboard. With their careful refinement, all of them succeeded, but the price was downgrading and rebirth.

After expressing his thanks, Heizi hurried to feed the newborn brother.

"Liangshan, from my perspective, your method of transformation seems to only be able to limit the birth of new spirits to the fourth grade or below." Liu Weizi said thoughtfully.

"Indeed." Shang Liangshan nodded. He also discovered this problem. It seemed that there were rules restricting it in the dark.

"Train the Huang Lingwei. The Lingwei will fight outside, and the Huang Lingwei will guard the Taoist temple." Liu Weizi gave a suggestion.

Huang Lingwei is good at defense. He can borrow the power of the Taoist temple and be commanded by the Mountain and River Seal. His strength is unmatched by other Huang Lingwei.

"To be honest, the Mountain and River Seal is cultivating the Yellow Spirit Guards on its own, but its cultivation method is different from others."

"How is it different?" Liu Yu asked curiously.

"It is modeled with gold, absorbing the essence of ore and the power of the earth to give birth to the Yellow Spirit Guard."

"This..." Liu Weizi found it difficult to understand for a moment, because this method of conception was indeed unique.

As far as he knew, the Huang Lingwei were all temple spirits. They drew the power of the earth from the outer Taoist temples to construct their spiritual bodies, allowing them to absorb the power of incense and vows to grow.

But the Mountain and River Seal used gold to construct its mold, absorbed the essence of the ore and the power of the earth, and gave birth to the Yellow Spirit Guard. This was beyond his understanding.

"It's normal to be different. If you follow the ordinary path, the old man will think it's abnormal." The old patriarch said as a matter of course.

"That's right." Liu Weizi agreed deeply.

Shangliangshan…
