Chapter 609: Japanese Immortal, Hundred Demons Parade at Night
Longhu Mountain, Li Daoxuan!
When he heard this name, Fujiwara Junichiro, who was holding high the Eight-foot Mirror, felt his heart tremble as if struck by lightning.
He looked at Grandmaster Abe who had fallen lifeless, and a feeling of despair welled up in his heart.
Why is this happening?
Didn’t the delegation in Chang’an bring news that Li Daoxuan, the imperial master of the Tang Dynasty, was practicing in the Xuandu Temple in Chang’an?
But the fact is, he happened to appear in Langzhong, thousands of miles away.
Fujiwara Junichiro's body was shaking slightly, with despair and fear.
Even though there was a vast ocean between them, he had heard of the legend of Li Daoxuan in Japan. He was the immortal who protected the Tang Dynasty, and the number of yang gods who died at his hands was so great that he could not count them with both hands.
The Yangshen Realm is known as the Immortal Realm in Japan, and no one has set foot in it for hundreds of years.
In the past, he would have comforted himself that the legend about Li Daoxuan might not be without exaggeration, but the death of Grandmaster Abe today was like a bucket of cold water poured on his head.
Those rumors were not exaggerated, Li Daoxuan was even more terrifying than the legend!
One flower with nine petals, a gentle blow can kill the nine evil ghosts that are roaming around Japan. What an incredible power!
A mortal body can actually have god-like power!
At this moment, Fujiwara Junichiro's worldview seemed to collapse. His face was ashen, and the hand holding the Eight-foot Mirror was shaking slightly.
Li Daoxuan didn't care about him. He was just a useless man with no spirit left. He didn't even look at the reward for the "Book of Demon-Exorcising".
Because it's too weak, really too weak.
If this is the most ferocious ghost in Japan, then he can only say that he is really disappointed.
This so-called Shikigami technique is actually just a side branch of the Taoist technique of raising ghosts, and it has not been fully learned. It has gone astray and gone astray without knowing it.
For example, the Taoist technique of moving the five ghosts completely enslaves ghosts, and life and death are all decided in a single thought. However, the Japanese shikigami worship ghosts, raise them in their bodies, and provide them with blood food from time to time.
Little do people know that if they raise ghosts with their bodies, they will only be slowly deceived by the ghosts, and their personalities will become extreme, and their life span and fortune will also be affected. It may seem that they are gaining power quickly, but in fact, they are drinking poison to quench their thirst.
For example, Abe Ryuken has good aptitude and practices diligently, but at his old age, he has yet to enter the Yang Shen realm. Even if Li Daoxuan does not take action, his life will be over in a few years.
This thing that brings endless harm, they still pass it on to their descendants like a treasure...
"How can a frog in a small well speak for itself?"
Li Daoxuan shook his head and continued to walk towards the black dragon. At this moment, most of the dragon veins had been collected into the jar. The young Japanese man who was responsible for collecting the dragon veins was trembling all over.
Are you scared?
Li Daoxuan stopped and did not interrupt him. Instead, he waited for him to completely take in the dragon vein, thus saving him the trouble of any more efforts.
"Li Daoxuan... the Great Tang Immortal... is truly amazing!"
After collecting the dragon vein, the fair-faced young man looked at Li Daoxuan, his body trembling slightly, with an inexplicable light in his eyes.
His Chinese is very standard, unlike Abe Ryuken who still has a Japanese accent.
Li Daoxuan frowned slightly. He discovered something interesting and his eyes fell on the young man.
"I don't feel a single bit of fear in you."
"Japanese, you want to fight me?"
The young man put away the jar, then bowed deeply to Li Daoxuan, his body at a ninety-degree angle, appearing extremely respectful.
"I am Li Daoxuan, the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty. I have long heard of your great name. I am Kamo Yakuko. As you said, I am not afraid of your coming, because..."
He raised his body little by little, his brown pupils revealing beast-like excitement and ecstasy.
"Because I want to kill you so badly!"
That look was like a long-hungry beast that finally saw its prey. He trembled all over, not because of fear, but because of excitement.
I am excited about the decisive battle with the strongest man in the Tang Dynasty, and I am confident that I will eventually cut off his head!
"Kamo-kun's little corner..."
Li Daoxuan pondered the name and felt it was somewhat familiar. Then he suddenly remembered that he had heard of it in his previous life.
Kamo Eikoku is the first immortal in Japanese legend and the founder of the Onmyoji lineage.
The famous Abe Haruaki in later generations was considered his disciple.
Thinking of this , Li Daoxuan finally became interested.
"Interesting. You are indeed stronger than that old man just now. You are hiding it well enough."
But he always felt that Kamo Eikoku's crazy look didn't look like an immortal at all, and it was more like he was possessed by a demon.
"Haha, don't compare me to that useless master. He is just a toy of mine."
Li Daoxuan raised his eyebrows.
Even Fujiwara Junichiro was stunned, wondering why Kamo-kun suddenly insulted Master Abe.
Kamo Yakuko looked at Abe Ryuken's body with a disdainful smile on his face.
"He was indeed my master, but this old fellow is really stubborn and stubborn. He stubbornly believes that cultivation requires hard work, staying away from the mundane world, breathing in spiritual energy as slowly as a turtle, and spending decades to improve his magic power!"
"I used to think so, until I learned from the immortals and created the way of Shikigami. I sealed the demons with my body and seized the power of evil spirits for my own use. I could easily surpass others who have practiced for decades or even hundreds of years!"
As he spoke, he angrily said, "But this old fellow said that I had fallen into the devil's way and wanted to clean up the sect!"
It seemed as if he had been holding these words in his heart for a long time, and now he finally spoke them out. He looked crazy and his face was distorted, no longer as handsome as before.
“Hahaha, this old guy never expected that his proud practice would be completely powerless under my shikigami. I won easily, but I didn’t kill him…”
Having said that, Yi Xiaojiao revealed a ferocious smile.
"Didn't he say that the shikigami are evil heretics? If that's the case, I will tear open his body and sew the ten evil spirits into his flesh one by one. Then, I will use illusion to modify his memory and make him think that he subdued these evil spirits himself."
His smile grew wilder.
“Li Daoxuan, can you understand why the master who used to say he wanted to exorcise demons and defend the Way of Dao has now become the biggest believer of the Way of Shikigami and is teaching me the Way of Shikigami in a serious manner? Hahaha, this is so interesting!”
The laughter echoed in the valley, wanton and crazy.
Li Daoxuan felt a chill . He took a look at Abe Ryuken's body and felt sad for him.
It's unfortunate to have such a disciple.
No wonder he felt a little strange when fighting with Abe Ryuken before. The other party was obviously practicing evil arts, but he had a very solid foundation.
Shaking his head, he sighed, "The so-called shikigami is indeed a crooked way. The only fault of your master is that he is too weak."
Hearing his way being despised, Yi Xiaojiao said angrily: "You don't understand at all!"
"Li Daoxuan, even if you are the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty, you are not allowed to insult the way of Shikigami. I will never allow it—"
"Stop talking nonsense. Are you Japanese only good at talking?"
Li Daoxuan interrupted him coldly. He felt that it was a waste of life to say any more words to such a person.
Finish the fight early and go back early, train the apprentice, tease the senior sister, isn't that great?
"In that case, Li Daoxuan, I will let you see the power of the way of the shikigami!"
Yi Xiaojiao suddenly tore his shirt, revealing a body full of holes and scars. Then his body was covered with dense tumors and ghostly hands stretched out.
Dark shadows emerged from his body.
"One, two, three, four..."
Fujiwara Junichiro stared at the scene blankly. He counted the number of ghosts, his pupils grew bigger and bigger, and finally his voice trembled.
"One hundred...thirty-two evil spirits!"
Yes, a total of one hundred and thirty-two evil spirits ran out of Yi Xiaojiao's body, making the originally empty valley suddenly become a little crowded.
Komei, Haki, Daitengu, Shantou, Hashihime, Shiranui...
Thick yin energy rose up into the sky, covering the sun and making the sky dark. The hostility and resentment were like a dark ocean that was about to swallow up the world.
A hundred demons parade at night!
Li Daoxuan also showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect that Yi Xiaojiao had sealed almost all the ghosts from Japan in his body.
No wonder his temperament became so extreme.
In Japanese history, there is indeed a legend about a hundred demons parading at night. Could it be that the physical body of this little bastard collapsed later, causing all these demons to run out?
"Li Daoxuan, don't compare me with that useless master. Even if ten of him were added together, they wouldn't be as good as one of my fingers!"
Yi Xiaojiao stood shirtless among the ghosts, like the devil in the abyss, full of evil aura. He opened his arms, completely intoxicated by this powerful god-like force.
Under such great power, even the legendary immortals of the Tang Dynasty would tremble!
"Li Daoxuan, I hope you won't die so quickly, so that I can play with you for a while longer."
With a wave of Yi Xiaojiao's hand, 132 evil ghosts roared like the waves and rushed towards Li Daoxuan. The horrible yin energy made the grass and trees around wither quickly.
Hundreds of ghosts wailed miserably, causing Changle, who was standing behind Li Daoxuan, to show a trace of pain. Willow branches grew up and covered his ears, and only then did he feel better.
From a distance, it looked like a black wave spreading towards Li Daoxuan.
“Master…”
Changle subconsciously pinched the corner of her clothes, feeling a little nervous but not worried, because in her heart, her master would always be undefeated, and that green robe was the symbol of invincibility.
Li Daoxuan did not disappoint her.
He looked at the oncoming tide of ghosts calmly, his expression calm, and sighed: " Is this your way of Shikigami?"
The next moment, a clear cry was heard, shaking the sky and filled with a sacred and awe-inspiring aura, easily covering up the voices of the hundreds of ghosts.
A big sun rose slowly from behind Li Daoxuan, emitting dazzling golden light. In the center of the sun, one could see a three-legged golden crow with gilded wings and surrounded by flames.
The Golden Crow Dharma Image!
Without any obstacles, the golden light of the sun easily penetrated the hundreds of ghosts that were roaring in, and the extremely strong and masculine true fire of the sun completely tore apart the dark sea of demons.
The ferocious ghosts immediately let out shrill screams, and in just a few breaths, they were devoured by the golden flames, leaving nothing behind.
The bright sun will burn all ghosts!
The Golden Crow dissipated, and the sky and earth returned to clarity. There was no trace of ghostly evil spirits anymore, and the sky was filled with righteousness, grandness and magnificence.
Li Daoxuan looked at Yi Xiaojiao who was standing there blankly, with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "If you have any other tricks, use them as soon as possible."
"I'm in a hurry."
He doesn't want to be deducted more wages by some unscrupulous employer.
