The Ming Dynasty in Another World: People are in the Heavenly Prison, and Wuji becomes a Taoist

On the other side of Qianfeng Mountain.

The three diners who had watched Lin Mo's lively life at Zhang's Tavern also came here.

However, their experience of going up the mountain was far from as easy as Lin Mo's.

It can even be said to be a bit bumpy.

The middle-aged man was fine, holding the torch, calm and composed.

However, the two young men and women around him looked a little disheveled, with mud on their clothes.

Especially the young woman Bai Ling, her face was pale and she looked frightened.

She looked at the dark woods ahead and asked in a low voice, "Master, the evil spirits in this mountain are a little too fierce, aren't they? Should we really continue to go in?"

The middle-aged man was a Taoist priest from Mount Longhu, named Li Jinping.

He frowned and said in a deep voice, "I have long noticed that this mountain is filled with evil spirits, but since we have agreed to the request of the villagers at the foot of the mountain and come here to exorcise the demons, how can we give up halfway?"

"Can……"

Apprentice Bai Ling wanted to say something but was interrupted by the middle-aged man.

"Come on, let's go in!"

The cold wind howled, causing the three people's clothes to flutter.

Xiao Fei, the youngest of the three, pointed at the blood-red mushrooms under the tree and shouted, "Master, these are the blood-red mushrooms the villagers are talking about, right?"

Li Jinping nodded, his expression solemn: "Yes, this kind of mushroom will release spores when it matures. Once inhaled, it will cause hallucinations, and in severe cases it can make people crazy and bloodthirsty. We have to be careful."

Bai Ling felt even more frightened when she heard this.

She originally thought that this trip down the mountain for training would be easier with a master leading the team.

But I didn't expect it to be much more difficult and dangerous than I imagined.

She said in a panic: "Master, how about... we come back during the day?"

Li Jinping shook his head with a serious expression.

"The magic circle here will only appear at night. We can't find the entrance during the day. Now that we are here, we can't retreat!"

"But……"

Bai Ling wanted to say something else but was interrupted by her master.

"You and I are both cultivators. If you are afraid of even this little difficulty, how can we subdue demons and monsters and eliminate harm for the people in the future?"

Senior Brother Xiao Fei saw that Junior Sister was scared, so he stepped forward and comforted her: "Junior Sister, don't be afraid, Master and I are here, we will protect you!"

"Thank you, senior brother."

Bai Ling looked at her senior brother with gratitude and felt a little more at ease.

The three of them continued to move forward, and soon they arrived in front of the strange sea of ​​flowers.

A strong smell of blood wafted into their noses, making the three of them frown.

"Hmm? Such a strong yin energy!"

Li Jinping looked around vigilantly, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.

"Xiao Ling, Xiao Fei, please be careful!"

"Yes, master!"

The two brothers and sisters nodded heavily.

Soon, they saw the same horrific scene that Lin Mo had experienced before.

The three of them held their breath for a moment, their hearts beating wildly.

"Are these...all children in here?"

Bai Ling stared blankly at the horrifying scene before her, her voice filled with fear and disbelief.

Xiao Fei's fingers trembled slightly as he pointed at the vaguely visible white bones on the ground.

"It seems that the remains of those innocent people have turned into nutrients to nourish these strange flowers."

"The noble and upright sects emphasize self-cultivation, a pure mind and few desires, and a deep concentration on the Tao."

Bai Ling gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with intense anger, and for a moment she even forgot to be afraid.

"And these evil demons always try to use crooked ways and quick methods to harm innocent children. Such evil deeds are simply intolerable to heaven!"

"The child's third eye is still open, and his Yin energy is extremely heavy. For evil practitioners, he is the perfect material for refining Yin spirit instruments and practicing evil arts."

Li Jinping spoke in a heavy tone and sighed, "Back then, the people of the Pagoda Cult used children and women to practice martial arts, which aroused public outrage. The righteous sects joined forces to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Although the Pagoda Cult has been destroyed, there are still many villains who do evil things in the dark. "

Hearing the master's sigh, the brother and sister fell silent.

Why do so many people continue to do these despicable things?

Because, by relying on unorthodox methods, one can improve his cultivation without having to work hard for more than ten years.

Let me ask you, who wouldn’t want to take a shortcut?

After all, it is the greed in people's hearts that is at work.

"No wonder evil spirits are rampant in Qianfeng Mountain. It turns out they are trying to cover up the heinous crimes here!" Senior brother Xiao Fei was indignant.

"Master, what kind of evil magic is this?" Junior sister Bai Ling looked around, her eyes full of confusion.

Li Jinping frowned.

After taking a quick look around, he fell into deep thought.

He had read many Taoist texts, but had never seen this kind of evil magic in orthodox Taoist books.

He thought hard.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind.

Li Jinping looked up suddenly, a look of intense surprise appeared in his eyes, and his breathing became slightly rapid.

"If... my guess is correct, this should be the long-lost technique of 'stealing a dragon and switching it to a phoenix'!"

"The art of stealing a dragon and turning it into a phoenix?"

Xiao Fei widened his eyes, his face full of shock.

"What is stealing a dragon and switching phoenixes?"

Bai Ling Bai Ling became very curious.

Li Jinping took a deep breath and said slowly: "A thousand years ago, there was a genius in Maoshan named 'Zhen Yuanzi', who was known as the ancestor of earthly immortals in the world. He practiced Taoism for decades and finally ascended to heaven in broad daylight and became an immortal.

He has a precious spiritual root in his hand, and the fruit it bears is called 'Cao Huan Dan', which is what we often call ginseng fruit."

"I seem to have heard this story from my great-grandmaster uncle." Bai Ling frowned and opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

Li Jinping's voice deepened a bit: "But you know, Zhen Yuanzi was able to become an immortal not only because of that spiritual root, but also because of his own creation of the art of stealing dragons and switching phoenixes. But this thing is made of the souls of millions of ownerless babies!"

"The current situation is quite similar to this technique, but it is also different."

"Ah? Could such a great master use such evil techniques?" Bai Ling exclaimed.

"Don't people who practice Taoism pay the most attention to karma? Isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning for doing this?"

Xiao Fei was also very puzzled by this.

Li Jinping explained: "Zhen Yuanzi's method of stealing the dragon and changing it into a phoenix can steal the souls of millions of ownerless babies without anyone noticing, and use them at his will.

It can also cleverly avoid the punishment of heaven and earth and increase the success rate of raising ghosts.

Putting aside his character, the fact that he could come up with such a profound Taoist technique is enough to prove that he is a genius!"

Just when several people were talking about it.

Suddenly, a sinister voice sounded out of nowhere.

"I never thought that there are still people who know how to steal a dragon and turn it into a phoenix? It's really rare!"

"Who?!"

The three of them exclaimed in unison and turned around warily.

I saw a flower behind me slowly blooming.

A child sat cross-legged among the petals and slowly opened his eyes.

There was a complete darkness in the eye sockets!

It was like an abyss, filled with an indescribable weirdness.
