Chapter 538: The Sun Suppresses the Poison Dragon, the Immortal Light Overwhelms the Old Gods
Juye County.
The huge county town was empty and deserted, with almost no living people to be seen.
Rotting corpses lay on both sides of the road, including common people and government detectives. Without exception, they all died miserably, their bodies covered with sores and maggots.
Occasionally there were a few living people, but they were dying, with measles-like red spots all over their faces, and there was a tendency for them to fester.
Bones are exposed in the wild, and no rooster crows for thousands of miles.
Li Daoxuan's expression became more and more solemn. He could sense that there was a faint miasma in the air, penetrating into people's limbs and bones, spreading the disease.
Ordinary people can hardly survive!
"Master, this is most likely the fault of that willow monster!"
The God of Land also came and led the way personally.
"He deserves to die!"
Lou Ling's gaze lingered for a long time on a little girl about seven or eight years old. She was wearing a green skirt and a small flower in her hair. She was at the age where she loved beauty, but her body was floating in the stinky ditch, swollen and twisted.
It is hard to imagine what kind of pain she endured before her death.
Lu Chunliang, a usually cheerful Taoist priest who loves food, now looked serious and clenched the talisman in his hand.
Not long after we walked, we came to a valley shrouded in clouds and mist, eight miles northeast of Juye County. A frosty and snowy miasma lingered there, and a few dead trees could be vaguely seen.
"What a poisonous miasma!"
Lou Ling stared at the place. The miasma there was a thousand times denser than that in the county town. Not to mention people, even a bird flying overhead would turn into a pool of rotten meat.
"The miasma here is so dense, it looks like this is the lair of the willow monster!"
Lou Ling took off the golden bow, his eyes were cold and murderous.
The pure yang energy in her body was beating violently, reminding her that there was something extremely dangerous hidden in the miasma and it was best not to get involved.
However, with Lou Ling's personality, he doesn't know what retreat means, not to mention that the National Master is here.
"Three immortals, you have great powers and magical abilities. I am a humble old man, so I will not accompany you in. I will wait for your triumphant return here."
The God of Land bowed and wanted to escape into the underground.
But he was surprised to find that the land, which was as soft as tofu in the past, was now as hard as black iron and fine steel, and his earth escape technique had completely failed.
The Five Elements Escape, pointing the ground turns into steel!
"Master, this..."
Li Daoxuan raised his eyes to look at him and said calmly: "Your acting is very good, there are almost no flaws from beginning to end, but unfortunately, you are too cautious."
"Lord Qingdi, you, what do you mean by this? I don't understand!"
Not only the land, even Lou Ling and Lu Chunliang had some doubts.
But they surrounded the God of Land at the first opportunity and were ready to take action at any time.
Li Daoxuan looked at the Qinglong Mountain in the distance and said calmly, "Qinglong Mountain God, you have been following us for so long, why don't you come out to see us?"
Upon hearing these words, the God of Land's expression suddenly changed, with shock in his eyes.
The next moment, Qinglong Mountain shook, the ground veins undulated, and huge rocks rolled, turning into a giant mountain dozens of feet tall with trees growing on its body.
"Have you discovered me a long time ago?"
The voice of the Qinglong Mountain God was heavy and low, like muffled thunder.
Li Daoxuan stood with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly: "Since leaving Qi County, you have been following me secretly. You are so big, do you think I am blind?"
In fact, the Qinglong Mountain God's technique of concealing his breath was very good, but it was a pity that he happened to meet Li Daoxuan, who had mastered the Five Elements Great Escape Skill.
Such a strong earth energy was quietly moving with them. To Li Daoxuan, it was like lighting a lamp in the dark. It was hard not to notice it.
"At first I thought he was going to attack us halfway, but along the way, I found that you, Land God, already knew about the existence of the mountain god, and even left some small marks to prevent him from losing track."
The God of Land had a gloomy face and held the cane tightly in his hand.
He didn't expect that all his tricks were discovered by the other party!
"I guess you wanted to lure us into the miasma and let us die there, but you were worried about your own safety and feared that something might go wrong on the way, so you asked your mountain god friend to follow you. If we find out, you will be more confident of escaping."
The God of Land had made all sorts of plans, but he never expected that he would be exposed because of his excessive caution.
He didn't look particularly panicked, though.
“As expected of a hibernating dragon, you are indeed not easy to deceive. But you are too conceited. You clearly saw my flaw, but you still waited until here to point it out.”
He sneered and said, "This is near Qinglong Mountain. With the blessing of the mountain, you haven't entered the Yang God stage yet. Even if you all join together, you can't beat the Qinglong Mountain God!"
This is his confidence.
Mountain gods are different from land gods. Land gods have good eyes and ears, but are weaker in fighting skills. Mountain gods are often superior to those of the same level in fighting skills. Apart from anything else, their huge bodies alone are enough to kill ordinary Yin Gods with one punch.
In addition, this place is located in Qinglong Mountain, so the power of this mountain god can be exerted to the maximum. Even if it is a dormant dragon, he is not afraid of it at all!
boom!
The mountain god picked up a huge rock weighing ten thousand pounds and smashed it directly towards Li Daoxuan and others. The sound was so powerful that it was like a meteor falling to the ground.
Li Daoxuan did not take any action and still stood there quietly.
whoosh!
An arrow shot through the air, surrounded by bright starlight, and smashed the huge rock into pieces. The remaining power pierced through the head of the Qinglong Mountain God.
Gravel flew everywhere, and the scene became quiet for a moment.
Golden pure yang energy rippled from Lou Ling's body, and his cultivation level of Half-Step Yang God was no longer concealed at all. His long hair tied into a ponytail fluttered in the wind. He held a golden bow, looking heroic.
Buzz!
The bowstring was raised again, but this time it shot not one arrow, but six arrows!
The starlight from the sky descended and turned into six brilliant arrows, like six thunders, which pierced through the limbs and neck of the Qinglong Mountain God at the same time with a roaring sonic boom.
"Run, she's not an ordinary bad person!"
"She is Erlang Shen among the dormant dragons!"
The God of Qinglong Mountain did not hesitate to expend a large amount of divine power to reassemble his shattered body. Then he shouted loudly and turned around to flee without looking back.
He was friends with the God of Land of Qi County, who had even saved his life, but so what; his own life was the most important.
The spirit of the land was shaken. Erlang Shen, the sleeping dragon? One of the four pillars guarding the country?
In the past five years, countless demons have died under Lou Ling's arrows. She is decisive in killing, and her archery skills are extremely fierce. She has the potential to be the leader among the four pillars of the country.
Such a person actually came to Dengzhou. The most incredible thing is that she disguised herself as someone else's follower?
No, maybe not a disguise!
Along the way, the God of Land could feel that Lou Ling's respect and obedience to the Green Emperor was a respect that came from the heart.
If that's the case, then this man wearing the Green Emperor mask, could it be...
The God of Land trembled and was about to speak when he saw the man wearing the Green Emperor mask slowly raise his hands. His fingers were as slender as jade and glowed with a faint luster.
A mysterious Taoist rhythm flowed between his fingers, and the five elements of energy were mutually generated and restrained, rotating endlessly.
The man pressed his hand into the air, floating like a feather.
The next moment, the fleeing Qinglong Mountain God suddenly froze, and vertical and horizontal cracks appeared on his body, spreading from head to toe, and then he shattered with a loud bang.
Dust flew, and the world lost a mountain god.
Li Daoxuan flicked his sleeves lightly, as if brushing off the dust on them.
His indifferent eyes fell on the God of Land.
"Now, can you tell me who ordered you to lead us here?"
The God of Land opened his eyes wide and his hands holding the cane kept shaking.
“You…you are…”
Li Daoxuan didn't say anything, just nodded.
The God of Land suddenly looked ashen and completely desperate, without any desire to resist anymore.
“I see…I see…”
The God of Land gave a miserable smile and looked sad.
"Either way, we will die. After all, I am the ruler of a piece of land and have enjoyed the incense of the people. So I will tell you that the person who sent me to bring you here is Jia Huo, the governor of Dengzhou!"
Li Daoxuan looked calm, but Lou Ling and Lu Chunliang were shocked.
Jia Huo?
Shouldn't it be the governor Xia Qingfeng who colluded with the demons?
"Jia Huo stole my divine seal and threatened me to do things for him. He tried to bring you all here so that you would die in this miasma!"
The seal of the god is the foundation of Shintoism, especially for an existence like the God of Land who has no physical body of his own and relies entirely on the power of Shintoism to condense his soul. If the seal of the god is controlled by someone, it means that life and death are in the hands of others.
"Jia Huo is just a mortal, but you own a piece of land. Why did he take away your divine seal?"
Lu Chunliang couldn't help but ask.
Land took a deep breath and said: "Jia Huo is not an ordinary person, his true identity is——"
Snap!
Before he finished speaking, cracks suddenly appeared on the land, and his soul went out like a lamp, dissipating into nothingness in an instant.
Li Daoxuan looked towards the miasma suddenly, and saw poisonous gas surging and clouds and mist rolling. In the unfathomable miasma, it seemed that some terrifying existence opened its eyes and looked at him from a distance.
…
Qi County.
Jia Huo led his soldiers to destroy the entire land temple. He even smashed the statue of the God of Land into pieces with his own hands and splashed the woman's blood on it.
A small brown divine seal also fell into Tiankui's blood, dim and lifeless.
Jia Zhongyuan was a little scared and asked, "Uncle, why are we destroying the land temple?"
There are many folk legends that if you anger the God of Land, you will be punished. It is said that someone once got drunk and urinated on the statue of the God of Land. As a result, he fell seriously ill the next day and almost died.
Destroying the statue is even more serious than that.
Jia Huolong walked with the gait of a tiger, his eyes sparkling, and he didn't look like a man who was almost sixty years old at all.
He said calmly: "This is the order of Lord Qingdi. The landowner of Qi County colluded with the demons and together with Xia Qingfeng, caused countless corpses in Juye County. Humph, I will not only smash him, but also burn him!"
A moment later, a huge fire shot up into the sky and burned the land temple to ashes, leaving the people of Qi County looking at each other in worry.
After setting fire to the temple, Jia Huo led his men back to the mansion. When passing by Xiaoqing River, he stopped. He looked at the seemingly calm river surface and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
…
Li Daoxuan looked at the miasma and found that in just a few moments, it seemed to have become even thicker.
"Let's go and clear away the fog and see what secrets Dengzhou hides."
"promise!"
The three of them stepped forward and finally entered the miasma.
“Ahem!”
The extremely toxic miasma rushed towards the three people like a leech seeing blood, causing some unknown lesions in the human body and even corroding their magic power!
Even Lou Ling, who had cultivated pure Yang Qi, kept coughing and quickly held his breath.
The evil-repelling talisman on Lu Chunliang's body was directly ignited, and it only lasted for a few breaths before turning into ashes.
Only Li Daoxuan remained calm and did not use any protective magic. The Green Lotus Robe emitted a lotus shadow, isolating all the miasma outside.
He stretched out his finger and drew a talisman in the air. The golden pure yang energy outlined two amulets and stuck them on Lou Ling and Lu Chunliang.
For a moment, the surrounding miasma became turbulent, and a vacuum zone formed within several feet around the three people.
Wherever he goes, miasma will avoid him.
But such behavior seemed to have angered the terrifying existence in the miasma. Low roars were heard in the hazy miasma, coming from all directions.
boom!
All the miasma surged along with it, following the sweeping long wind and transforming into a hundred-foot-long poisonous dragon, attacking the three people, corroding even the stones wherever it passed.
Lou Ling took the lead in launching a counterattack. She used all her strength to cast Dou Mu Yuanjun's bow-refining spell. The bright starlight gathered into six arrows and shot towards the poisonous dragon at the same time .
However, the divine arrow that was always effective decayed into ashes in front of the poisonous dragon and could not get close at all!
Lu Chunliang recited the Maoshan Anti-Poison Curse, hoping to dispel the poison dragon, but it was of no use. His magic power even backfired, and he turned pale and almost vomited blood.
"The laws of Shinto...interesting."
Li Daoxuan took a step forward slowly, his Taoist robe fluttering, and stood in front of the two men, facing the surging poisonous dragon.
roar!
The poisonous dragon swallowed him into its stomach in one gulp, and the shadow of the green lotus was submerged in the miasma in the sky.
However, Lou Ling and Lu Chunliang were not worried. If the national teacher could be defeated so easily, he would not have become their leader.
Sure enough, the next moment, a golden light shot up into the sky and pierced through the poisonous dragon, like the sun at noon, majestic, vast, extremely strong and masculine!
The majestic pure yang energy gushed out like a volcano, transforming into nourishment for the Golden Light Mantra, causing it to shine with dazzling light.
The poisonous dragon swallowing the sun will only bring about its own destruction.
In an instant, the miasma dissipated, revealing the true appearance of Mount Lu.
A figure appeared in front of the three people. He was wearing a bright red robe, his face was as blue as indigo, his hair was like cinnabar, he had a huge mouth with fangs, his three eyes were wide open, he was born with three heads and six arms, one of his hands was holding a large black banner.
When Lou Ling and Lu Chunliang saw this person, they felt dizzy, as if their bodies had suddenly become much weaker.
This is because we have Li Daoxuan's amulet, otherwise the consequences would be even more serious.
Mortals cannot look directly at gods!
The plague bell in Li Daoxuan's arms suddenly moved. If this magic weapon had not been refined by him long ago, it would probably have flown into this person's hands.
"In such a small place like Dengzhou, two great gods, locust and plague, came at the same time. How interesting."
Li Daoxuan remained calm and said with a smile: "Should I call you Plague God Lü Yue, or... the evil god who was revived on the remains of the old god?"
The God of Plague raised the plague banner, and the miasma that was dispersed by the Golden Light Divine Spell condensed again, and it was more vast and evil than before, as if it wanted to plunge all the immortals into the sea of disease.
"Who are you, and why do you have this god's old magic weapon?"
"Offer me the treasure, and I will spare your life!"
He clearly didn't say anything, but sounds came from all directions, as if the miasma was his mouthpiece.
"Save me from dying?"
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, and five-colored fairy lights bloomed from his body. This was the protective fairy light he gained after mastering the Five Elements Great Escape, and it was inherited from the Empress.
Although it is far inferior to Kong Xuan's innate five-colored divine light, it is still a rare great supernatural power.
The energy of the five elements circulated, and the brilliant fairy light blocked the advancement of the miasma. With the body of a mortal, he blocked the old god!
"Who are you?"
The Plague God's eyes moved. He had not expected that a mere mortal could actually challenge him. Even his divine body felt a hint of danger.
Li Daoxuan finally took off the Green Emperor's mask, revealing a handsome face.
He has a straight nose, thin lips, and sword-like eyebrows, like a thousand-year-old pine or cypress standing on the top of a snowy mountain.
"I am Taichong, my common name is Li Daoxuan."
"Today I am so bold as to lend you my head."
