”"Cut the chatter, move when you're all here," Jiang Qiyun said with a slight frown.We immediately prepared to retreat to the gate where those two puppets were located. Thirteen Fragrance saw that we...If naivete were to crumble, this would be the picture.
The opening in the black clouds was tinged crimson, drawing the wisps of cloud inwards and forming a massive vortex like a giant umbrella.
The space rift looked like a piece of the world's painting had been torn apart, overlapping with scenes from somewhere unknown.
I saw a carriage appear suddenly, and several streaks of light rushed out. Fluffy clouds scattered like feathers in the air, and thunder rolled across the sky while lightning flashed frequently among the clouds.
Black feathers……
My heart pounded wildly in my chest. When I was caught by the space rift, that deity who only showed a shadowy form truly had something "moving" on its body. It looked like the wings of some kind of monster.
Is he coming
As a few streaks of light flashed from the speeding carriages, they charged into the ranks without hesitation, heading straight for Jiang Qiyun.
Jiang Qiyun raised his sword, blocking the two blades that came at him from both sides.
A beam of light and shadow shot directly towards me, incredibly fast, nearly shattering Qingluan's barrier. I heard Qingluan chanting incantations, stabilizing her form.
The black clouds on the light and shadow dissipated, revealing a tall and muscular figure. It was an image of a middle-aged man who carried an axe and sneered: "Chong Mo! This woman is sitting here just fine, are you eating your keep You can't even handle such a small matter! Give me her blood puppet, let me go in and hack to pieces those damned ghosts in the underworld!"
Chongmo jumped over and roared coldly, “Shut up, she’s still useful, we need to catch her alive!”
"Isn't it hard enough to keep her alive Just chop off her hands and feet, so she can just lie there obediently What are you afraid of It's not easy to keep someone alive even on a thread! Hahaha... Besides, this woman is evil to the bone and still hasn't died. She's got a tough life!"
No sooner had he spoken than an axe struck the barrier, its shock wave scattering the yin soldiers on the outermost layer.
I feel sorry for them, I know it's not easy for these "ghosts" to cultivate. They were all people with good deeds in their lifetime, perhaps just ordinary kind people, or warriors who fought on the battlefield. Because of their good deeds, they had an afterlife, although they are only ordinary Yin soldiers, if their ghostly bodies and cultivation are destroyed, they can only return to the underworld like Ah Da and Ah Meng, as a wisp of ghost energy, not knowing how long it will take to gather into a body again and be reborn.
The thunder roared incessantly above. The man carrying the axe looked up at the sky, black with clouds pressing down, and said impatiently, "Boom boom boom, what's the big deal I don't practice your celestial arts, so why would I be afraid of lightning"
Lightning strikes! My mind immediately reacted—Jiang Qiyun had just instructed me!
The Pure Heaven Divine Spell cleanses the aura, and the Golden Light Divine Spell protects my body.
Taiyi Bao Gao saves suffering and difficulties, while the treasures of Shenxiao Jade Palace are... Lei Zu.
It is said that this Nine Heavens Profound Yuan Thunderclap Universal Heavenly Venerable is the incarnation of the Southern Pole Longevity Great Emperor.
Residing in the Heavenly Jade Palace, amidst the azure and ethereal vapors, he commands the legions of thunder gods, executing the will of Heaven.
The Thunder God is the pivot of yin and yang, responsible for the birth, death, flourishing, and decline of all things in heaven and earth, as well as good and evil, rewards and punishments. He also subdues demons and exorcises evils. Unlike the underworld officials who handle yin virtues and sins in the netherworld, the Thunder God primarily operates in the mortal realm.
Different kind of beings preach, they will face the tribulation of lightning, demons and fiends are frequent, punish them with thunder.
This is probably the deity that practitioners of cultivation most often invoke and venerate when facing strange oddities, fiends, ghosts, demons.
Amongst all the celestial lineages, the most venerated was that of Tianzun. This included Taoist practitioners from other schools; anyone who practiced thunder magic had to pass through Shenxiao Jade Clearing Palace and offer incense to Lei Zu.
I placed the Soul-Drawing Lamp before me on the ground, hands clasped in a seal, holding aloft the Zi Xiao Ruyi.
I am not unfamiliar with the Heavenly Venerable's Decree. I have also invoked it occasionally when performing thunder techniques before.
The Palace of the Nine Heavens Yuan, the Supreme Jade Purity King...
Imperfectness transforms into fine dust, and actions are swift like wind and fire. With a tranquil mind and boundless aspiration, with wisdom subdue all demons.
The calamity of heaven and fortune, the power to weigh objects, to control things and people, to govern life and death.
Anyone who feels the presence of evil spirits beside them, or feels a chill in their heart, can often recite the Thunder Mantra.
The Purple Sky Staff in my hand emitted a brilliant glow. A bolt of thunder erupted above my head, splitting the heavy black clouds apart with a flash of lightning that descended suddenly!
Bang—
A sudden bang.
The cold glare of lightning struck the cobblestone ground, shattering stones and sending dust and grass flying.
That's helpful!
I immediately closed my eyes and meditated, continuing to silently recite the Lei Zhu Bao Gao, the prayer for summoning gods, and the Five Thunder Talisman all over again.
The thunder grew louder, and it was unreasonable for such heavy rain and rolling thunder to occur during this season. It should be late summer or early autumn. Yet, the thunder grew stronger with each passing moment.
Boom, boom... A series of deafening roars echoed as lightning struck down from the sky. Two trees beside me were hit by the bolts, bursting into flames and rapidly turning to charcoal.
It seemed terrifying, but Qingluan was surprised and exclaimed, "Wow! This is adding a protective talisman array for us!"
Lightning-struck wood is one of the Daoist magical tools, carrying the yang energy of heavenly thunder and the energy of killing. It is often used as an important material for Daoist magic weapons. Superior lightning-struck wood is rare and hard to come by.
And the two trees beside me, still burning with celestial fire, forced Chongmo and that hulking demon back a few steps.
The strong man frowned and said, "How is this little girl so troublesome Does she have the ability to summon lightning from the sky"
Chongmo shrugged, looking indifferent: "Anyway, strong methods don't work on her. There are always some strange things protecting her."
"Give me the doll! I'm going to go get her and take care of it!" The burly man impatiently gestured at Chongmo.
That blood doll seems to be a kind of contract that can summon a demon lord by its side. Just now, Shuumo charged into the barrier with it, appearing directly beside me.
After retreating a step, Chong Mo said coldly: “This blood puppet was obtained by me. Why should I give it to you If you have the ability, catch her yourself.”
The strong man was taken aback and angrily retorted, “We are all doing this for His Majesty! You still want to seek merit and reward! It is your tedious pity that requires us to bind our magical powers and come to this world!”
Whether it was the female ghost Siman Princess just now, or this burly Demon King, Chongmo seemed unwilling to hand over that blood puppet to them.
Is it really just for the sake of gaining merit and rewards
"This is our Underworld's little lady. Is she someone you can just arrest!" Qingluan couldn't help but reprimand.
The burly man let out a sneer: "I know ~~~ Emperor Beita has a little empress... But, did this little empress ascend the Immortal List Isn't she still just an ordinary person Even if the celestial deities bestow many conveniences upon her, she's still just... a tool!"
He raised his axe and swung it down with a mighty blow at a lightning-struck tree!
I was afraid he'd smash the formation with one axe, so I quickly used the Purple Cloud Magic Rod to summon a bolt of lightning. Amazingly, the thunderbolt seemed to respect my authority and struck in his direction!
Hey It actually worked! I'm really struck by lightning
Five thunders of the Grand Command, running through the Three Realms! Great Sage, great compassion, supreme emperor, supreme Tao! The sound of thunder from the Nine Heavens responding to the primordial element purifies Heaven Venerable!
Look!
Boom—
A deafening roar shook me to my core. Suddenly, thunder boomed like a drum in the heavens, and lightning crackled like withered branches.
On Jiang Qiyun's side, the spring water boiled, and mist surged into the sky. Ethereal apparitions entangled the demonic kings emerging from the cracks, dragging them with all their might to the other shore of Huangquan.
However, the carriage that rushed out first, stood alone in mid-air, a black red-eyed warhorse clad in armor, hanging high above the mist, pawing the ground and panting heavily.
The carriage was empty.
Before I could get a good look, the giant, with lightning on his head, raised his axe again and chopped at the thunderbolt tree.
"Infernal deities, heed my command, guard the Immortal Empress, let nothing befall her..."
The crisp voice came from afar, like a bolt of enlightenment.
I was stunned. Was this Jiang Qiyun's order
The minor deities of the Netherworld by his side were also momentarily stunned, but they quickly regained their composure with solemn expressions. The leading Yin official brandished his long staff, and an army of Yin soldiers surged forward, heading straight for the mighty demon lord.
