Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 195: Peace Comes

Taoist Priest Liu thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about forcing them. As long as it succeeds, it's fine. We can just treat it as a local custom of kidnapping a bride."

"Besides, the Earth Qi Golden Python was very happy after being dragged to the Mountain and River Seal. That's it."

"Yes, yes, yes." Liu Yu was the first to agree. He couldn't let Yihuo get ahead of him anymore.

"Brother Liu, what benefits will there be after the Earthly Golden Python moves into the Mountain and River Seal?" the old patriarch asked expectantly.

I have to ask this. I've put in so much effort and I owe Mr. Mo a favor. My expectations are so high, how can I not ask?

"There are many benefits. In summary, the place is outstanding and the people are smart."

"Tell me more about it." Forgotten took over.

"The speed at which the dojo gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will increase, the academy will gather luck, the people will live longer, the practitioners will become enlightened, the children will become more intelligent, and so on."

"Brother, what benefits will Shang Huangling get as the owner of the Taoist temple?" Liu Yu focused on the point, asking on behalf of Shang Liangshan.

Taoist Priest Liu pondered and said, "I don't know the specific benefits, but what I can be sure of is that the earth energy of the Huawai Taoist Temple will be extremely rich, and the earth spirits and plants will benefit infinitely. The other thing is cultivation."

"Once the Earth Energy Golden Python becomes intelligent, it can mobilize the Earth Energy of an area to fight, and it will be able to attack and defend at the same time. It will have the combat power of a top-level spiritual beast, and will be the envy of others."

"That is to say, Shang Huangling has gained another powerful disciple." Liu Yu pondered.

"This is just one of them. In short, there are many benefits. If you can transform the earth-energy golden python into a dragon, even the king will be in awe." Taoist Priest Liu said enviously.

"It's only courtesy in return. Here you go." Shang Liangshan handed Taoist Liu a mist ball.

This is the mist condensed by the golden python from the earth. After the golden python was dragged into the space of the Mountain and River Seal, the mist remained in the Huawai Taoist Temple and was compressed into a ball by Shang Liangshan as a gift.

The mist ball contains luck, earth energy, and water spiritual power, which can be refined into a spiritual weapon, which is very suitable for the Taoist style of riding on clouds and mist.

"What a good thing! I'll accept it without hesitation." Taoist Priest Liu's eyes lit up. He took the mist ball without hesitation and put it away, fearing that it would be snatched away.

"What is the use of this fog ball?" Yihuo asked curiously.

"Hehe, Brother Huo, are you envious of Liangshan's ability to fly on the clouds?" Taoist Priest Liu asked.

"I'm envious." Yihuo nodded honestly.

"I envy you too, but now that I have this mist ball, I am not so envious, because if I refine the mist ball into a Taoist spiritual weapon, I can also fly in the clouds."

When Yihuo heard this, his eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to Shang Liangshan and said, "Liangshan, give me one too."

Shang Liangshan spread his hands and said, "No more, just condense one. Besides, you can't use it, Fifth Elder, and Brother Chao can't refine it either. If you don't believe me, ask Taoist Liu."

"Indeed." Taoist Priest Liu nodded and said, "This mist ball is very complicated to refine. It needs to be strengthened with Taoist methods to solidify its shape and contain its wisdom. It also needs to be allowed to devour natural treasures of the same nature to help it grow."

This was why Shang Liangshan had brought it out to give as a gift. He suggested, "It would be best to add a formation. This way, the Xiangyun Spirit Weapon would have even greater potential."

Taoist Priest Liu pondered for a while and nodded, thinking that this was a good suggestion.

Ghost Festival is Ghost Festival after all. The peaceful days were broken by the "crackling" warning sounds coming from the air and continuous roars coming from the mountains and forests.

On the village wall, soldiers and civilians looked vigilantly at the mountains and forests on the other side of the river.

Due to the light source, the soldiers and civilians could only barely see the river bank, and there was no way they could see the enemy clearly. However, the pairs of scarlet eyes were creepy to look at.

"Ha ha, brothers, prepare for battle. A large number of ghosts are coming. Among the ghosts, besides wild beasts, there are also corpses and zombies. They are very scary and difficult to kill." Heizi flew above the village gate and loudly read out the information he had gathered.

As soon as it finished speaking, it whistled towards the rock wall.

"Prepare torches. After a wave of arrows, those who feel their archery skills are not good enough can switch to spears, and the swords and shields can defend." Chen Jun began to make pre-war arrangements.

There was no way, they would definitely be attacked first because the entrance was right opposite.

"Haha, Leopard, quickly organize the militia to go to the village for support. There are so many ghosts, and their eyes are red with hunger." Heizi, who was roaring to the top of the rock, said to the leopard who was looking out.

The leopard had no time to complain, as Heizi and the others' eyes were red with hunger, so they hurried to gather the local militia and go to the village to provide support.

Since the establishment of markets and villages, these two targets, the villages have become safer.

The roars resounded through the night sky, and the dense "bang bang bang" sounds of water falling into the water were heard. The stench was carried by the wind into the noses of the soldiers and civilians, making people feel sick.

"Swoosh" a rocket streaked through the night sky and landed in the river, reflecting a tide of ghosts like a black torrent, and everyone who saw it gasped.

Because this time, it was a real tide of ghosts. Their bodies had undergone mutations, and there were signs of rotten flesh falling off.

"Roar" a bloodthirsty roar suddenly broke out, and the ghosts crossing the river chased each other, you attacked me, I attacked you, scrambled to rush to the river bank, scattered on the river bank, and rushed towards the village wall.

Yijiu looked at the waves of ghosts attacking each other and eight words flashed through his mind: no rules, acting on instinct.

"Shoot!" Chen Jun pointed his long sword and thousands of rockets were fired.

The "puff" sound of arrows hitting the target came one after another, creating a sea of ​​fire. However, only a few ghosts fell down, which instead aroused their ferocious looks.

"Roar" the ghost roared and rushed forward with rockets.

"Crossbow, suppress the group of ghosts!" Chen Jun gave the order loudly.

"Swish, swish, swish" dozens of arrows like long spears shot out, and the sky exploded, shooting out hundreds of powerful arrows, sweeping through the army, nailing the ghosts to the river bank, and being trampled under the feet of the subsequent wave of ghosts.

"Attack!" Yijiu pointed with his long sword, and a rocket streaked across the sky, creating a sea of ​​fire.

The ghosts were shot by arrows and were unaware of the danger. Flames were burning on their bodies, and their ferocity was revealed. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they ran towards the village wall like starving ghosts pouncing on their food, facing the rockets.

Because on the wall of the village, there is the delicious meat they desire.

"Bang bang bang" Not long after, a series of crashing sounds, roars, and climbing and scratching sounds were heard under the west wall of the village.

Seeing this, Liu Taozi took out a red talisman, injected spiritual power into it, and threw it into the air.

"Swoosh" the red talisman soared into the sky and exploded in mid-air, turning into a fireball.

When the disciples of Xuanxu Sect heard the sound and saw the fireball, they took out yellow talismans, slapped them on the wall of the village, and injected spiritual power into them.

The yellow light radiated in all directions, forming a line and pouring into the village wall, stabilizing it.

"Shua, shua, shua" the disciples of Xuanxu Sect took out another green talisman, brewed it according to the method, and the green light flowed and was injected into the wall of the village.

A magical scene then appeared. On the ground under the corner of the village wall, thorny vines suddenly emerged. They pierced through the ghosts, attached themselves to the village wall, grew rapidly, and intertwined with each other to form a thorny vine wall.

After doing all this, the disciples of Xuanxu Sect quickly assembled and fought in groups, with elemental light shining in the sky.
