Chapter 174: Immortals in the Pass
The palace is magnificent and the exquisite decorations inside are quite exquisite.
On the top of the wall are various rare crystals, dazzling to the eyes.
Several tables and chairs made of precious red sandalwood were quietly placed in a corner of the palace.
Those red sandalwood spiritual woods are priceless things in the outside world.
Here, they are offered to the gods and immortals to be used as dining tables and chairs.
Even gods and immortals don’t need to eat at all.
Exquisite fruit pastries were placed on the silver plate, all made from special rare spiritual fruits.
There are also many precious foods with fragrant smells placed on the rosewood dining table.
Some of them were still emitting heat, obviously they were just made.
In the Demon-Suppressing Pass where fighting with demons broke out from time to time, the luxury inside the palace was like that of an imperial palace.
In order to "please" the immortals and gods who came to Zhenmo Pass, the mortals have tried every possible way.
When arranging beautiful women to serve, some immortals and gods thought it was vulgar and polluted their eyes; when offering rare treasures, those immortals and gods also disdained them.
To immortals and gods, the valuable treasures in the human world are far less valuable than spiritual objects.
Not to mention worldly money, which is basically regarded as dirt by the immortals and gods.
In the end, the people in Zhenmo Pass could only collect rare fruits and treasures from everywhere and make exquisite dishes and snacks.
Then place precious and exquisite ornaments and utensils.
We don't expect the gods and immortals to really eat these mortal foods, as long as they like them.
If a god or immortal really ate it, the mortals in the Demon-Suppressing Pass would be afraid of being blamed.
Obviously, before Li Yuan, the immortals who came to Zhenmoguan to "assist" the human race did something that left a very "deep" impression on the mortals in this huge city.
The palace is so vast that you can't even reach the end even after walking hundreds of steps.
However, in addition to Li Yuan and the other person, there was another figure in the palace.
"I am the God of Wuchen Mountain, an eighth-rank god."
The thin man with narrow eyes introduced his identity as soon as he met her.
Li Yuan restrained his breath and bowed lightly out of politeness.
"The god of Anshan Mountain, seventh rank of priesthood."
The thin man - the Wuchen Mountain God - raised his eyebrows slightly and forced a smile.
"I haven't heard of the name Anshan around here."
Li Yuan casually took some food in the palace, his tone was rather indifferent.
"I have traveled to a distant land."
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Wuchen Mountain God's narrow eyes:
"I see. But, the Demon-Suppressing Pass is dangerous, why would the Anshan Mountain God travel so far to gain merit?"
Vaguely aware of the other party's eyes full of deep meaning, Li Yuan tasted the food in the hall and did not reply for a while.
He really wanted to say, 'It's none of your business.'
But keep it classy first.
"I came to this Demon-Suppressing Pass by chance."
"At most one year, then he'll be gone."
Li Yuan picked up a spiritual fruit and took a big bite.
He was quite satisfied with the taste of some snacks and fruits.
The Wuchen Mountain God narrowed his eyes and looked a little cold, like a long snake.
"Oh? It seems that... the Anshan Mountain God came here for a purpose?"
Li Yuan answered with a casual "hmm".
But the Wuchen Mountain God was pressing forward step by step.
"I wonder why the Anshan Mountain God came here to suppress the demons?"
"It's not that I'm curious, I'm just worried that your intentions will affect the safety of Demon Suppression Pass."
The Wuchen Mountain God began to put on a moral high hat.
Li Yuan took a deep breath and secretly told himself: I want to be a civilized god.
"It's just to find something. It doesn't involve the demon race, it doesn't involve the power change in Demon Suppression Pass, and it won't affect the stability of Demon Suppression Pass."
"Are you the immortal god who is in charge of guarding the Demon Suppression Pass during this period? If you need anything, you can ask me for help."
Li Yuan tried his best to force a faint smile.
Wuchen Mountain God made an "oh" sound out of curiosity and walked towards Li Yuan.
A pair of narrow eyes were full of scrutiny.
"I wonder what the Anshan Mountain God is looking for here?"
"I have been in charge of this Demon-Suppressing Pass for decades. Perhaps I can help you find it."
Li Yuan looked at those narrow eyes, and veins on his forehead bulged slightly.
"What I'm looking for is related to my own karma. It's not convenient to involve other immortals and gods, so don't bother."
Li Yuan's words were very clear.
A normal person with a bit of common sense wouldn't ask again.
Unexpectedly, Wuchen Mountain God made an "oh" again out of curiosity, with the tail sound dragging out very long.
"I don't know the God of Anshan..."
Li Yuan couldn't bear it anymore and jumped up instantly.
"Oh, you, Nima!"
He walked over directly, grabbed the collar of Wuchen Mountain God, and lifted up the immortal god with narrow eyes.
"I've explained it to you so clearly, why are you still asking?"
"Do you know that this is considered an invasion of the privacy of immortals? Be careful or I'll beat you up!"
The whereabouts of the Fu Shang Sword was unknown, which already made Li Yuan feel bad.
Seeing Zhenmoguan's servile attitude towards him, it was obvious that he had been badly bullied by the immortals and gods in the past.
Seeing such a luxurious and out-of-place palace again, Li Yuan began to feel unhappy about the immortal gods who came to "assist" the human race in the Demon Suppression Pass.
Then, this Wuchen Mountain God clearly showed his rejection and hostility, and kept asking questions.
Just like a curious baby, who can stand this!
Li Yuan lifted up the Wuchen Mountain God so that his entire body was suspended in the air.
A breath of a seventh-level mountain god was released.
The Wuchen Mountain God's expression suddenly changed and he dared not say a word.
There are more than ten thousand mountain gods in the world, and half of them are at the eighth and ninth levels!
Seeing that Li Yuan looked young and frail, he thought that Li Yuan was just making up his strength, but who knew that he was actually a seventh-class mountain god!
"Don't be angry, my friend. If you don't like it, I won't ask."
A hint of a wry smile flashed across Wuchen Mountain God's face, and his eyes clearly softened a lot.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, and the other party doesn't have much grudge against me now.
After Li Yuan calmed down for a while, he let him go.
"Who is your fellow Taoist..."
Li Yuan muttered and continued to select delicious food in the palace.
Immortals and gods do not need to eat, but they value the desires of the worldly world.
When you see delicious food, you can’t help but take a few bites.
On the side, Zhang Tiansheng was still concealing his status.
The master's magic is naturally very effective.
The Wuchen Mountain God was influenced by a mysterious force and didn't pay any attention to the elegant middle-aged man in white.
So, when Wuchen Mountain God was meditating in the palace, he was secretly spying on Li Yuan.
Seeing Li Yuan handing food to the man in white next to him, everyone was stunned.
Where did the white clothes come from...
Oh, he seems to be always there.
He's just a mortal monk, nothing to worry about.
Wuchen Mountain God shook his head, feeling that he was making a fuss out of nothing.
"Somebody come!"
After sitting cross-legged for a while, the Wuchen Mountain God seemed a little annoyed and called out softly to the outside of the temple.
A man in black armor came running out of the palace. He was also a captain of a thousand men in the Demon-Suppressing Pass.
Before the man in black armor could stand firmly, the Wuchen Mountain God roared.
"You idiot, can't you see that the palace is dirty and messy?!"
"Hurry up and get someone to clean it up!"
“If you disturb my rest and cause my power to become disordered… then the Demon Suppression Pass will encounter a wave of monsters… humph!”
The man in black armor was terrified and knelt down quickly.
"I admit my guilt! Please don't blame me, Immortal God Master. I will arrange for someone to clean up the palace right away!"
The man in black armor was terrified, fearing that the Wuchen Mountain God would use this as an excuse to once again ignore the disaster of the monster tide besieging the city.
Basically, every hundred years, a nearby immortal god must be stationed here to help Zhenmo Pass resist the tide of monsters.
This is a contract passed down from ancient times.
The next demon wave will come in a few months, and it will be a large-scale one. Everyone at Demon Suppression Pass is being extremely cautious.
Fearing of angering the immortal god Wuchen, they had to once again use the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Demon-Suppressing Pass to fight off the terrifying demon tide.
The man in black armor did not notice Li Yuan and the other man sitting in a corner of the palace, and hurriedly started to pack up with a few soldiers.
Li Yuan said calmly: "My friend, I haven't finished eating yet."
It turned out that a soldier was in a panic and was busy cleaning up, so he took away the plate in front of Li Yuan.
After they entered the palace, they didn't dare to raise their eyes, for fear that their gaze would anger the gods, so they kept their heads down the whole time.
This misunderstanding happened accidentally.
The soldier was startled and looked up subconsciously.
Only then did they discover that there was another immortal god in the palace!
Not far away, the man in black armor was stunned when he saw this scene.
Bang-!
The soldier knelt down with a look of despair on his face.
"Master Immortal, spare my life!"
