Chapter 146 Demon Corpse Gu Chen

Chapter 146 Demon Corpse Gu Chen
"Xinzhan, just look at that."

Taoist Cunsi pointed to the northwest and said.

There, a cloud of black smoke rose from the western mountains. At first it was just a thin wisp, but in the blink of an eye, the black smoke spread out and spread towards the east, swallowing up the sunset.

The sky darkened at a very fast speed.

Cheng Xinzhan frowned. Was it a celestial phenomenon or Taoist magic?

If it was a celestial phenomenon, I have never heard of such a strange phenomenon. If it was a Taoist magic, what realm could be able to perform such a Taoist magic that could cover the sky and the sun?

"evil creature!"

"Thief!
Several angry shouts came from where the black smoke rose, resounding through the sky.

I don’t know how far it is from here, but the sound seems to be right next to my ears.

Along with the sound, there was also a bright light, which lit up from the place where the black smoke first rose, illuminating the black smoke that was about to blend into the darkness.

It took only a few breaths from dark to light again, and the black smoke quickly spread, covering half the sky from northwest to southeast.

Taoist Cunsi and Cheng Xinzhan looked at the place where the light rose. It seemed to have become the legendary Tanggu, with thousands of rays of light shining brightly.

And in that light, it is now clearly visible that dozens of the Dharmakāya images of the ancient gods have appeared, standing tall and performing world-shaking Taoist techniques to lock up the black smoke.

In addition, there is a divine bird with clear light all over its body flying out from the valley of light. Its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky, and its tail is like a rainbow across the sky.

"Juqu Mountain!"

Cheng Xinzhan and Taoist Cunsi said in unison.

Some people may not know Juqu Mountain, but if we talk about Maoshan, Shangqing Sect Altar, and Difei Mountain, the first of the 72 blessed places, then everyone should know them.

Cheng Xinzhan knew that it was Juqu Mountain because of the dozens of ancient gods' Dharma images, which had the same Dharma essence as his inner god and were the fusion of the gods of heaven and earth and the gods of the human body.

In fact, the visualization method he practiced and the "Zhou Tian Bai Qiao Nei Jing" both originated from the Taoist tradition of preserving the spirit. The Taoist tradition of preserving the spirit is ranked alongside the Taoist tradition of the primordial spirit, the Taoist tradition of saving people, and the Taoist tradition of the five thunders, and is second only to the Taoist tradition of inner alchemy.

The way of cultivating the spirits originated from the Shangqing Sect Altar on Mount Juqu, with the "Huangting Neijing Jing" as its classic lineage.

The main focus of Sanqing Mountain is to cultivate inner alchemy, and to cultivate all dharmas, and to enrich the inner alchemy with all dharmas. Among them, the way of keeping the spirit can definitely be regarded as one of the most difficult dharmas. Haven't you seen that the Five Thunders dharma, which is known as the root of all dharmas, has also developed a mountain dharma lineage in Sanqing Mountain?

Only the way of preserving the spirit is understood by few, and even those who are proficient in it are lacking.

The word "visualization" is difficult for those who don't know it, but it is not difficult for those who know it.

Cheng Xinzhan's attainments in the art of concentrating the mind are unique in Mount Sanqing.

Cheng Xinzhan proved himself with the Pleiades star official, the golden unicorn corpse and the three gods of thunder.

Later, when he was about to open up the Tufu, Wen Sukong personally went out to find "The Picture of the Three Mountains and the Gods When Prince Bingling Went to Sea to Inspect the Gods" and "The Picture of the True Shapes of the Five Mountains" for Cheng Xinzhan.

When he wanted to open the Wood Mansion, the head of the Three Pure Ones and the Lord of Ziyan Mountain gave him the "Picture of Donghua Mugong and Qingtong Dadaojun Riding on a Raft to the Sea" without hesitation.

When Beiyin saw the shadow of Cheng Xinzhan's inner spirit, he immediately gave him the highest-grade visualization diagram he had, "The Emperor's Moon Palace Demon-Slaying Diagram".

Visualization pictures are not common, but there is no doubt that those who are good at keeping their mind focused are even fewer!
When the phantom of the ancient god appeared on West Kunlun Mountain, many people's first reaction was the golden elixir Dharma image, and the second reaction was the master of Juqu Mountain. No one thought that this was the work of the disciples of Sanqing Mountain.

After that incident, it wasn’t that no one from Juqu Mountain came to Sanqing Mountain to negotiate, but Ji Hehe simply refused and kept the matter secret from Xinzhan.

Comparing the three mountains of talismans, there are few people on Longhu Mountain because it is the ancestor of a single family and the teachings are not passed on to outsiders; there are few people on Gezhao Mountain because the consequences of practicing the way of saving people are too great, so they dare not accept too many people; and there are few people on Juqu Mountain because it is too difficult to practice the way of keeping a god, so there are not many disciples.

On the other hand, Mount Sanqing, which advocates the mutual reference of all dharmas and inherits the unique knowledge of the sages, has the largest number of disciples.

Juqu Mountain is in Jinling, and the reason why Taoist Cunsi knew that it was Juqu Mountain from such a distance was because of the green divine bird.

According to legend, the guardian deity of Juqu Mountain is an ancient mythical bird, the Qingluan, one of the Five Phoenixes. However, since almost no one has ever seen it, many people thought it was an exaggeration. But today everyone has seen it, and it turns out to be true.

What on earth had happened? What was the origin of the black smoke that even alarmed Qingluan, who had not been out of Juqu Mountain for a long time.

The black smoke swept eastward rapidly and was about to cross Taihu Lake and head towards Kuaiji.

"Fellow Daoists from Siming Santian! Please help me intercept this demon!"

The powerful people from Juqu Mountain chased after the black smoke, but the black smoke was too fast and there was still a long way to go. Only the blue phoenix flapped its wings and quickly closed the distance.

The fact that the Shangqing Sect asked for help seemed to have pushed it into a corner.

The vast black smoke came from Jinling in the south, and Siming Mountain was just in front of it. At this time, the red mist on Siming Mountain became thicker and thicker, and it seemed that the mountain protection formation had been fully activated.

As they are both Taoist sects and face each other by the lake, no matter whether Siming Mountain had previously thought about lending a helping hand or choosing to remain inactive, after hearing the cries of the followers of Juqu Mountain, Siming Mountain can no longer move, otherwise it will not be able to survive in the Eastern Taoist sect in the future.

Cheng Xinzhan saw a bright light on the main peak of Siming Mountain. A man rose into the air and raised a magic weapon in the air that looked like a gate tower and archway. It was a hundred feet high and blocked the black smoke right in front of it.

The light in Siming Mountain was shining brightly and the black smoke was approaching, so the people in the mountains could see the black smoke more clearly.

“Is that a flock of birds?”

Taoist Cunsi narrowed his eyes and said.

The black smoke was getting closer, but it didn't look like real smoke. Instead, it looked like a large number of flying objects gathered together, like migrating birds or a swarm of bees leaving their nests.

At this time, the purple bamboo basket tied around Cheng Xinzhan's waist began to tremble violently.

This is the insect corpse giving a warning.

Cheng Xinzhan's face changed, and he activated his Dharma Eye, only to see that the overwhelming black smoke was not a flock of birds, but clearly countless twisted beast souls with bared fangs and claws, and terrifying, hideous zombies!

"Gu Chen is here! Who dares to stop me!"

The black smoke was like a tide, and above the tide, there was a handsome man standing with a banner in his arms.

Seeing Siming Mountain release a magic weapon to block the way, the man sneered and just waved the flag in his hand. The speed of the black smoke did not slow down, but became faster. Countless beast souls and zombies rushed forward and pounced on the magic weapon on the gate tower like a wave.

Under the tide of beast souls and zombies, the gate tower magic weapon was as small as a stone. At this time, the black smoke was right above Siming Mountain. Everyone in the mountain could see clearly that the beast souls had monkey heads and bear bodies, with fangs and fangs, and each was about ten feet tall, like a demon descended from the world. The zombies were all human bodies, with different clothes and hair accessories, but at this moment, they all had green faces and white eyes, and had no life at all, like evil guests from the underworld.

It was like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, or even worse than raging waves crushing rocks. One hundred thousand beast souls and zombies crashed into the magic weapon on the gate tower. The latter was emitting precious light and should have been a magic weapon of extremely high grade. However, it did not last for a moment and broke into pieces immediately. The Taoist who was offering the treasure vomited blood and fell from the sky.

"Headmaster!"

Taoist Cunsi cried out in grief and immediately flew over.

The man on the Kuroshio chuckled and continued to head south.

Cheng Xinzhan watched the beast souls and zombies passing by like a dark cloud, and an idea came to his mind. He opened the purple bamboo basket at his waist, and the insect corpses flapped their wings and flew out, turning into an inconspicuous little dot, flew to a zombie, and drilled into its clothes.

Taoist Master Cunsi went to visit the head of Siming Mountain. Faced with such an earth-shaking event, Cheng Xinzhan did not have time to say goodbye to Elder Cunsi. He grabbed his third sister and stuffed her into his arms, flew to the gate of Siming Mountain, and was about to go out.

He was going to leave the mountain, not to chase the black cloud, but the blue phoenix.

The formation allows people to leave but not enter at this moment. The Taoist priest on duty advises Cheng Xinzhan not to go out at this moment, and it will not be too late to leave after it is safe. However, Cheng Xinzhan insists on leaving, and the Taoist priest on duty has no choice but to let him go.

After leaving Siming Mountain, Cheng Xinzhan followed the black smoke southward, his heart filled with shock.

The "Qing Xie Hua Sheng Jing" says that the corpse of Gui water is an extremely yin thing, and it is difficult to form a corpse. If it is formed, it will be a big demon, an evil corpse, or a demon corpse. It must not be raised, and must be eliminated when seen.

When talking about the corpse of Guishui in the book, an example was given, which was the great devil hundreds of years ago, the demon corpse Gu Chen.

But wasn’t it said that Gu Chen was locked up and suppressed in the underground evil fire by the founder of Emei, Changmei Zhenren?

Why did he appear in Juqu Mountain?
And why does this skill of waving flags and playing with beast souls seem so familiar?

He looked at the direction where the black clouds were flying in the sky. That was where Tianmu Mountain and Tiantai Mountain were located. He wondered if the two mountains could stop the demon. As for Tianmu Mountain, it should be said that it was lucky. It was located in the northwest of Kuaiji and escaped this disaster.

I saw a golden shuttle flying out from Tianmu Mountain and a white sword energy flying out from Tiantai Mountain, slashing towards the black clouds.

But this time, the man on the black cloud was too lazy to move, and let the golden shuttle and sword energy rush into the tide of beast corpses. The golden shuttle and sword energy did not cause any waves and quickly dissipated.

Cheng Xinzhan, who was far behind, could see clearly that Tianmu Mountain and Tiantai Mountain had seen the power of Heiyun and the fate of the head of Siming Mountain, so they did not dare to stop Heiyun's edge and were just pretending.

Sanshan took action, but the speed of the black cloud did not slow down at all, and it seemed that it was going directly to the East China Sea.

However, the masters of Juqu Mountain were also extremely fast, especially the Qingluan in the lead. When Cheng Xinzhan looked over his head, he did not feel the strong wind and flying sand and rocks as he had imagined. He only felt a gust of light wind passing by, and then he saw the Qinghong fading away.

Cheng Xinzhan also used all his skills, stepping on his own created Four-Unlike-Beast Step, turning into a shadow and following Qingluan from a distance.

Is there any image of the wind god in the world that can compare to a living blue phoenix?
The eastern sky was already dark, but the clear light emanating from Qingluan was like the bright moon, illuminating wherever it was.

The oncoming wind brought with it moisture, and as the sea line was in sight, Qingluan also caught up with the black smoke.

Qingluan treated the beast souls and the walking corpses as nothing and rushed directly into the black cloud. Wherever the clear light shone, the beast souls melted away and the walking corpses fell. Wherever it passed, it tore a crack in the black cloud.

"Bah!"

The blue phoenix let out a clear cry, and a hole appeared in the clouds in the sky. The strong wind above the cloud roared down like a river pouring down from the sky, rushing towards the man on the top of the black cloud waves.

All the beast souls and zombies that came into contact with the strong wind were turned into dust.

Even a demon who had experienced many disasters could not be careless when facing a divine bird that had been rampant since ancient times. The man finally frowned, muttered something, and waved the flag, and countless strands of yellow air escaped from the flag.

No one knew what kind of magical thing this yellow gas was. It was not afraid of the strong wind. It remained condensed in the howling wind, went up against the wind, and wrapped around Qingluan.

The blue phoenix seemed to know the power of the yellow energy. It flapped its wings slightly, flew a little higher, and spit out a blue bead from its mouth.

The green bead shone brightly, and the man's robe fluttered without wind. His muscles trembled for no reason, shaking like a sieve. Pain appeared on his face, as if a gust of wind blew up from his body, seeming to tear his body apart.

The man still waved the flag, and the diffuse yellow gas was inhaled into his mouth and nose. This yellow gas was difficult for Qingluan to avoid, but to him it seemed like a tonic, and it quickly calmed down the evil wind that arose in his body.

In just these two exchanges, the high-ranking masters of the Shangqing Sect arrived. These people were already furious, and without saying a word, they each summoned up their magic weapons, practiced Taoism, and attacked together.

For the man, dealing with these people was obviously much easier than dealing with Qingluan. The banners were shining with spiritual light, and the souls of millions of orangutans were crying out in unison. The cries of ghosts were deafening, and the invisible sound waves stirred up ripples in the void. Ordinary Taoist magic weapons could not get close to him at all.

"You are such an evil killer! Orangutans are kind and gentle animals, strong but timid, living in the northwest mountains on snow and water. There are only a few hundred thousand of them in total, and you killed their entire clan to make your magic weapon complete!"

Among the pursuers in Juqu Mountain, there was an old man who was furious and shouted loudly. He formed an incantation with his hands, and his inner spirit manifested externally, transforming into a Dharma image that stood tall and upright.

Cheng Xinzhan was well-read and could tell at a glance that it was the god of thunder, General Liujin Huoling.

The Dharma Image stretched out his hand to grab it, and at the same time, golden thunder fell from the sky and red fire surged from the ground. This thunder and fire were the nemesis of Yin objects. However, as the demon corpse waved its flag, yellow air surged into the soul of the orangutan and the body of the walking corpse, and it was not afraid of thunder and fire anymore, and roared and pounced on the people of Juqu Mountain.

There was a famous woman among the people who came from Juqu Mountain. She had a dignified appearance. When she saw the beast souls and zombies rushing towards her, she also used her Dharma appearance. This time the Dharma appearance was even more extraordinary. She was a goddess, but she wore a crown on her head and wore a rosy dress with scenes of the earth and mountains on it.

This is the Dharma image of Bixia Yuanjun!

The Dharmakāya made a hand seal and a gigantic mountain appeared in the sky with a magnificent appearance.

The shape of the mountain was so familiar to Cheng Xinzhan that he could recognize it at a glance.

Mount Tai.

After Taishan appeared, it was as if the door to the underworld was opened, and all the beast souls and zombies that were rushing over were sucked over.

Gu Chen's face changed, and he waved the flag to withdraw the beast soul zombies. At the same time, he also sacrificed another magic weapon, which was a chain shining with red light. It was densely engraved with runes and had leaping flames clinging to it.

Gu Chen held one end of the chain and swung it in a full circle like a whip.

The chains were emitting fierce flames that cut through the darkness. More importantly, there seemed to be divine power in the chains, and no one knew where they came from, so everyone had to avoid them.

He only managed to temporarily avoid the crowd, but in the end, two fists were no match for four hands. Gu Chen fled again, heading straight to the East China Sea, shouting,

"Madam Cui! Prisoner Wu! Why don't you come over yet?!"
