Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 209: Immortals and Gods Enter Guixu, Blood of Sin Establishes Order

In Yunzhou, in the Xuntian Tower, General Wu Jingyu closed his eyes and kept rubbing his temples.

It's really a headache.

Right in front of him, Xu Chong, dressed in linen, folded his arms, raised his chin, and glanced around coldly.

The one who comes is not kind.

"If it weren't for my disciple, I really wouldn't want to come to your shabby place."

As he spoke, Xu Chong pulled over a chair, sat down with his legs crossed, picked up a pot of tea, sipped it twice and spit it out, then looked up at Wu Jingyu.

"Although my disciple Jiang Yue has not been practicing for a long time and his experience is still relatively young, his achievements are beyond reproach, right?"

"Of course, Inspector Jiang has been promoted rapidly all the way, and his promotion speed is rare in our Sky Patrol Division..."

"He is still young, not even an adult yet, but he is about to break through the fifth realm. He can even create his own technique based on my technique. You should also recognize this kind of talent, right?"

"Unparalleled talent, rare in the world."

……

Although he knew that the other party was here to call him to task, the Yunzhou general had no choice but to stand up and smile, thinking quickly about how to get away with it.

"But why did you send him to Kyoto?!"

Xu Chong slammed the table, looking extremely furious. The table made of fine black pear wood shattered into pieces, and the overflowing force almost created a small breeze.

Startled by the noise, Wu Jingyu looked solemn and prepared to explain.

"Didn't he want a sinecure? Just a place where he could practice in peace. Do you really think he is your Sky Patrol's lackey?"

"Don't you know what Kyoto is? If this kid is like me back then, he won't be able to live peacefully there!"

Having said that, a hint of relief appeared in Xu Chong's eyes, but it quickly turned into greater anger.

"Inspector Jiang is extremely talented and has unparalleled achievements. He can be called the pride of Yunzhou. He will surely achieve great things in the future."

"I did agree to give you a sinecure post as an inspector. It's a job I promised you in exchange for your merits, but..."

Having said that, Wu Jingyu shook his head slightly.

"It's just that this trip to Beijing was specifically requested by the higher-ups."

"It's not my assignment, it's not my fault..."

Xu Chong had already guessed this, so he didn't say anything. He just looked at him coldly and said, "You can't decide whether to go or not, but why don't you tell me? At least I have time to prepare."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and an expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on his face.

"Is that what they meant? Seeing that I won't take up the post, they're going to take away all this authority?"

Sure enough, Wu Jingyu did not give any explanation and looked helpless.

"If you were just escorting an heir to the throne, you wouldn't have to hide it from me."

"The Immortal God's Tomb is open?"

When Wu Jingyu heard the name, his expression changed slightly. Although he quickly calmed down, he still couldn't escape Xu Chong's eyes.

"Knew it."

"That old immortal... forget it, I can't mention him. The Upper Thirty-Six States are in such a mess, why are you still thinking about his Immortal God Ruins?"

"After so many years, if there really was something he wanted, how could there not be even a clue? And why come up with a Heaven and Earth Ranking to be mysterious... Isn't it just a selection?"

After calming down a little, Xu Chong did not vent his anger in the Xuntian Tower, but what he said surprised Wu Jingyu.

If these were to get out... it would be better for the other party to tear down the Xuntian Tower.

"Miao Xingyu is there too?"

"He went. You know my disciple. Although he has just completed the ascension to the marquisate, he has accumulated a lot of experience and his swordsmanship is unmatched. He just killed a marquis a few days ago. You can rest assured..."

Seeing the other party asking, Wu Jingyu quickly changed the subject. After all, if he continued talking about what had just happened, it would be a big deal.

Although the matter of the Ruins of Immortal Gods is no longer a secret at their level, that person... really cannot be mentioned.

"They passed through Yunzhou yesterday and left a record of the Sky Survey Seal, which is right here."

As he spoke, Wu Jingyu picked up the Sky Survey Seal and handed it forward.

"What's the use of this token?"

Xu Chong just waved his hand and refused to take it.

"Once we leave Yunzhou, how do you know whether they are safe? Even if your Tianjian Division still has the ability to govern, what about other provinces?"

As he said this, he picked up his Sky Survey Order and threw it away.

"Since you don't want me to know, I won't ask. This matter has nothing to do with you. I will find someone to settle the score! You don't need this Bird Patrol Order!"

……

The mountain paths were filled with dark fog and accompanied by many sudden changes in terrain. If you had not walked this path many times, you would have thought it was steep and difficult to travel on and impassable.

But Jiang Yue, who knew the veins of mountains and rivers, could completely ignore this.

He knew very well where to go. Even the monsters in the mountains that had the ability to climb might not be as familiar with the terrain as he was.

I just don’t know if there are any monsters on this path.

"what?"

Feeling the view ahead, Jiang Yue suddenly felt something strange.

Are the demons here so smart that they can build such a complicated structure with stones?

Even if you feel it carefully, you can find that the locations of those buildings are excellent and closely connected to the earth's veins. They can utilize some of the earth's energy, which is definitely an excellent choice for planting.

"No, this is a human village."

Seeing the black bear wearing clothes and even having a collection of books, Jiang Yue's thoughts were misled for a moment.

But come to think of it, although the monsters here are imitating humans, most of them live alone, so why build settlements?
"Is there a village ahead?"

Miao Xingyu was also surprised when he learned about it.

"It seems that they are the descendants of the criminals and fugitives mentioned before. I didn't expect that they have formed a settlement."

"It has been completely isolated from the outside world... I don't know what kind of society this is."

Jiang Yue nodded and said, "It's not easy to give birth in this environment."

Of course it's not simple.

The man who attacked them mentioned the word "stranger" before his death.

I'm afraid it's because according to the rules of this mountain, they can kill strangers they meet directly.

As for this settlement... I'm afraid there is some order in it, otherwise it would have become a den of demons long ago.

I just don’t know how much of this order still exists.

"There are indeed many powerful people who have fled to the Black Mountain, but in recent years, as the borders have become more and more clearly demarcated, there are fewer people who can roam around."

"However, I didn't expect that there would be a settlement here. After all, they are all extremely vicious people. It's good that they don't kill each other."

“Avoid if you can. Unlike demons, if people want to do evil, it will be more difficult to deal with them…” As he said this, as if he had sensed something, Miao Xingyu pressed his sword, ready to go.

“It’s unavoidable.”

Jiang Yue sighed softly. Although he had learned the location of the settlement through the earth veins earlier, he could already feel the energy coming from nearby, as if it had been prepared for a long time.

After feeling it carefully, more than ten auras have gradually appeared around, and the power of will emanating from the operation of the decree is also extremely obvious.

"My whereabouts should not have been exposed, and I was not attacked when I was acting alone... Now that I have found out the situation in advance, I have encountered him. It seems that the other party is not targeting me."

Suddenly, Jiang Yue thought of something.

It was the man who attacked and killed them when they first entered Montenegro!
It seems that the man must be a member of this settlement. His death gave this place an early warning. However, because he was killed by Miao Xingyu, Jiang Yue was not targeted.

However, Jiang Yue did not say these words.

After all, he didn't see through it at that time because he hadn't formally started practicing Shinto. Looking back now, he felt that something was wrong.

Of course, that's fine.

Even if these people were prepared...what can they do?
"Revenge for Fourth Uncle!"

A red-haired young man walked in the front, crushing a spell with an indignant look on his face, and instantly fireworks ignited all over his body to protect him.

Dozens of people around were all practicing Shintoism, and the spells they used seemed to be identical as if passed down from generation to generation. At the same time, dozens of blazing fireballs were created and rushed straight towards the three people!

"Let me do it."

It had been a long time since he had a real fight, and Jiang Yue was itching to get his hands dirty. He summoned out his three-pointed, double-edged sword and rushed out at full speed.

Miao Xingyu on the side nodded and held his sword to protect Jiayin.

Although these people's cultivation is not low, they are Shinto monks of the third or fourth realm, which is also a powerful force in the outside world, but...

Under the light of the sword, the protection of the law seemed to be non-existent and shattered in an instant!
After casually hacking a man to death, Jiang Yue faced the scorching ball of fire without dodging or evading. He held the long blade in his hand with an imposing manner.

boom! boom! boom!
The roar of the explosion was endless, but Jiang Yue, who was at the center of it, stood still, as if he was not affected at all.

Do you understand the value of the invincibility of the physical body?

This level of attack wasn't even enough to break his skin!
The red-haired young man was anxious. Seeing that the decree had no effect, he took out a long spear, covered it with red flames, and stabbed out with all his might.

"Well done!"

Seeing that this young man actually had martial arts skills, Jiang Yue's eyes lit up and he swung his sword to fight.

The tremendous force did not cause the blade to shake at all. Jiang Yue turned his hand and flicked the halberd, causing it to fly backwards.

"You have tremendous strength at such a young age. This is a martial arts inheritance."

"It's a pity that you didn't take the right path and met me."

Jiang Yue won with one move. Without any further ado, he swung his hand back and cut off the boy's head. The red flame actually stuck to the blade, as if mixed with corrosive power. Fortunately, with the quality of the three-pointed, double-edged sword, it was naturally impossible to be affected by this degree of corrosion. With just a flick, the flames all dissipated.

Seeing this scene, the besiegers were frightened, but they did not dare to flee. They still mustered up their courage and rushed towards Jiang Yue.

Ten breaths.

There was no one left alive, and Jiang Yue didn't plan to ask any questions. Since they came with murderous intentions, he would just kill them all.

Looking at the black stone fragments all over the ground, Jiang Yue couldn't help but sigh. This Black Mountain encourages killing. If someone has a weak mind, he will probably be influenced by it and kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Even if his mind is clear and not disturbed, what about others?
No wonder it's such a mess.

.........

Black Mountain, deep valley.

The ape demon frowned, slowly retreated behind the other demons, and observed quietly.

The human holding the spear was too powerful, and the monsters might not be able to match him. But if they ran away now, they would probably be killed as a warning to others. They could only make sure they would not be the first to stand out.

At this point, how could it not understand that the many demons that came here had already been used and were just tools of the other party.

"Everyone, don't forget our previous agreement."

"After the matter is completed, the proportion of the essence of the transformed black stone will remain the same. I will not take the tiger demon's share either. You can divide it among yourselves."

"Although you are demons, you are also intelligent people who have practiced the way of the gods. I think you should know what to do."

"Of course, if there are those who don't want to, that's fine too. Just withdraw now."

“Is there anyone who wants to quit?”

The man holding a big spear, with blood-red hair and beard, looked excited. He swept his eyes over the monsters present, and his imposing manner was very intimidating.

"If that's the case, I won't do it."

"You are not on the same page. The inner protective array is not my fault. If something goes wrong, I will be blamed. Then I will go back to the top of the mountain to practice in peace."

At this moment, Bai Niu, who had been silent all the time, spoke in a muffled voice, muttered a few words, and prepared to leave.

brush!
The spear was swung out in an instant, as fast as a meteor and as quick as lightning. The blood-stained spear head burst out with power again, directly crushing the white bull's heart into pieces!

"Why did you... attack again? I didn't disobey you. Didn't you say you could leave on your own..."

The white bull endured the severe pain, but due to its strong vitality it did not die on the spot. It quickly made a gesture to protect its heart, then stepped back a few steps, facing the man with its horns, staring at him with a pair of angry eyes, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"You are all educated demons, but I am just a warrior who doesn't know many principles."

"But I also know that a demon cannot survive without trust, right?"

There was a sneer in the man's eyes, as if he was mocking this fearless resistance.

I have to say, the monsters in this black mountain are indeed more interesting than those in other places.

They actually want to reason with themselves?

If the truth really made sense, he wouldn't be here.

The man's name is Lou Yixuan. He was wanted by the Demon Suppression Bureau in Lizhou more than a hundred years ago. He was on the run and was almost surrounded and wiped out.

Seriously injured, he had no choice but to take shelter in the mountains. However, he did not expect that entering the mountains would completely cut off his hope.

In the past, he was a noble and powerful warrior, but his foundation was broken, and his old wounds were difficult to heal. There was no possibility of returning to the top.

But even so, he can still roam the mountains and even kill his way out of a forbidden area for demons.

The descendants of sinners in the forbidden land revered him as their lord and almost worshipped him as a god. There were countless women who were willing to sacrifice themselves for him.

only……

What's the use?
Could he really be willing to live in this black mountain and never see the vast world again?
If he had just entered this place, his answer would definitely be unwillingness.

If it were fifty years ago, he might have said that there was nothing that could be done about it.

However, after living here for a hundred years, Lou Yixuan has already established many ties and also has new goals.

He was destined to never get out, but that human race could, and his descendants could.

However, if you really want to walk out of Black Mountain with dignity...

Then you need to have enough strength!
"So, let's use this Black Mountain as food."

"You use us as nourishment, and although you occasionally give us something in return... it is reasonable for us to eat you, right?"
