The founder of all religions

Little Fox! ?

Li Mo looked at his room subconsciously and nodded immediately.

"I did raise a little guy... maybe it stole the uncle's soup." Li Mo joked casually.

The little fox has a wild temper and doesn't recognize anyone except Li Mo.

It can be said that no matter what this little guy does, Li Mo will not be surprised.

"Not really."

Uncle Ma shook his head and swept the floor, seemingly chatting unintentionally.

"It is not very auspicious to raise foxes in the capital."

"Why?" Li Mo was stunned and looked puzzled.

Although foxes are not common pets, the pets kept in wealthy mansions and aristocratic families are much more bizarre than this.

Cat demons, fox demons, snake demons, horse demons, donkey demons, python demons, cucumber demons... all kinds of things. In comparison, it was normal for Li Mo to raise a little fox.

"It doesn't matter now. In the early years, raising foxes was taboo."

Uncle Ma's deep and hoarse voice showed the vicissitudes of time.

Li Mo was stunned and couldn't help asking: "How do you say it?"

"In the early years... a long time ago... about seventy years ago... there was a fox raised in the palace." Uncle Ma suddenly raised his head and looked at the long blue sky and flowing clouds, as if looking up at the long river of time, trying to capture the past. bits and pieces.

"More than seventy years ago...a prince was born in the palace. The sky was filled with red clouds when he was born. He was regarded as a good omen and was deeply loved by the late emperor..."

"The prince had just been born, and the late emperor rewarded him with a royal estate in the eastern suburbs..."

As he spoke, Uncle Ma lowered his eyes, intentionally or unintentionally looking at the tombs in the mountains.

"When the prince reached the age of six, he was given the gift of being able to leave the palace at will and live in the palace... As time went by, His Highness became proficient in bow and horse, and gradually entered into spiritual practice... When he was seven years old, he was in the eastern suburbs I hunted a fox..."

"Somehow, he managed to spare the fox's life and brought it back to the palace."

"Can such a wild fox be kept in the palace?" Li Mo asked puzzledly.

"You're right." Uncle Ma nodded: "The rules of the Inner Forbidden Land are strict, and you are never allowed to raise anything that looks like hair and drinks blood... Moreover, there are many spirits in the mountains and wild places, and this kind of fox of unknown origin will naturally not Allowed to enter the palace.”

"It's a pity that His Highness was so courageous that he secretly raised her because of his favor."

Speaking of this, Uncle Ma sighed softly.

The palace is the place of true dragons, where the emperors of the Qian Dynasty gather together, where the lifeblood of the world is tied, and where the feng shui of the mountains and rivers are born.

The fox was carefully cared for in the palace, and its daily diet was more refined and expensive than that of ordinary practitioners.

After a long time, how can it become just an ordinary fox?

What's more, it already has some origins.

"What's the origin?" Li Mo blurted out.

Uncle Ma took a deep look at Li Mo, then shook his head and said: "If it is just an ordinary fox, it can still be hidden. Since it has given birth to Tao Xing, how can it be hidden?"

"It's a pity that at this moment, His Highness, a weak-headed man, came out of the palace to build a mansion and took the fox out..."

Uncle Ma sighed softly: "Although that fox escaped, it also laid the foundation for disaster."

"The root of the problem!?" Li Mo's eyes narrowed slightly.

"His Royal Highness was born in a royal family and admired Shenzong's deeds. In his spare time, his favorite thing was to study and pursue the footsteps of [Xia, Shang and Zhou]. With his status and means, he naturally gained a lot of treasures...but he was very fond of that fox. For the sake of pampering, even if you delve into it, you won’t shy away from it..."

"Finally one time, the fox saw a paper scroll among many collections..."

"Scroll!? What kind of treasure was that?" Li Mo's heart skipped a beat. He was also full of curiosity about [Xia, Shang and Zhou], especially the many treasures they found.

"The paper scroll was empty, with nothing left. His Highness regarded it as an ordinary thing and put it aside, but the fox saw the clue..."

Uncle Ma paused lightly and said in a deep voice: "That contains an extremely mysterious method..."

"Only by cultivating with the demon body, one can achieve the Tao through nine transformations without dying."

Uncle Ma's voice was so low that it made people feel that the early morning mountain wind was biting.

"Nine transformations and immortality!?"

"It is said that this method is extremely weird. It is born as a monster. Every time it steps into a new level, life will transform and become another kind of existence... Each transformation will face the test of life and death. After nine changes, If you don’t die, it will become extremely terrifying.”

Having said this, Uncle Ma looked at Li Mo and said calmly: "If it were you, would you practice?"

"Of course I practiced." Li Mo said without thinking.

Although there is danger of life and death, as long as one steps into the path of cultivation, no one can resist the temptation of this technique.

Uncle Ma sighed softly: "That fox thought the same way... This method is so weird that it can't predict what kind of monster it will become..."

"Even so, with just one glance, the fox couldn't help himself and practiced in secret."

"Perhaps it is destiny. That fox has been favored. Its cultivation has advanced rapidly. In this capital, in the palace of a prince... the evil spirit can no longer be suppressed."

"Dongchuang incident happened!?" Li Mo guessed.

"Such evil and sycophantic behavior cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth, let alone endangering the blood of the royal family!?"

"That day, soldiers were pressing down on the territory, and there were also masters in the palace... The fox went crazy and finally showed its fangs... The demonic aura was overwhelming, and the power was unparalleled..."

"At that time, people discovered that this fox had reached an extremely high level of cultivation. The great demon was causing chaos in the world and causing shocking disasters."

"What happened in the end?" Li Mo asked.

"Many people died... His Highness's two concubines both died in that disaster. As for the civilians affected, there are thousands..." Uncle Ma sighed leisurely.

"Since then, in the capital, almost everything has changed. Even the fur coat and satin used by the noble lady cannot be made of fox fur."

A flash of reminiscence flashed through Uncle Ma's cloudy eyes. That year, countless merchants who had hoarded fox skins went bankrupt.

"There is such a thing..."

Li Mo murmured: "Is that fox demon dead?"

"not dead……"

"So many masters were rounded up and they didn't die?" Li Mo looked suspicious.

It is almost impossible for those monsters and ghosts to escape from the capital.

"It is said that a mysterious master suddenly appeared and rescued it..." Uncle Ma said solemnly: "That fox was special, and the method of cultivation was even more special. With the help of an expert, he escaped naturally. "

"With a case like this, Xuantian Pavilion won't pursue it to death?"

Li Mo is now regarded as an official of Xuantian Pavilion. If such a big case occurs, the Dimen, Wumen, Xingmen, Prison Gate... the first one will not be free. Even if he goes to the ends of the world, he will have to kill this fox. Hunted and brought to justice.

"There was a lot of commotion back then, Xuantian Pavilion did send experts to hunt down..."

"But you have to know that the method practiced by that fox is very special. A change of life and death... finally made it fight out of a desperate situation and survive until now."

Uncle Ma's words stopped suddenly, and his faint eyes turned to Li Mo.

"Actually alive till now?" Li Mo was a little unbelievable.

"Perhaps you have heard of its name."

"Have I heard of it? It's unlikely." Li Mo shook his head subconsciously.

"One of the eight great demons in the world..."

"Nan Ming Li Huang!"

Uncle Ma slowly spit out a name.

"Eight Great Demon Immortals... Nanming Emperor Li!?" Li Mo's pupils suddenly shrank, revealing a strange color.

Today, he is no longer the ignorant young man who just came out of the mountain, and he has a certain understanding of the "Eight Great Demon Immortals in the World".

Among the eight demon immortals, four of them each took their own territory and established their own power. Not only were they highly skilled in the world, but their subordinates were also as skilled as clouds.

These four are [Dragon King of the East China Sea], [Ancient Demon of the West], [Beisha Xuanzhang] and [Nanming Lihuang].

in other words……

"This demon fairy was raised by the Daqian royal family? Which prince is so heartless?" Li Mo couldn't help blurting out.

"You should have heard of it." Uncle Ma glanced at Li Mo faintly.

"Such a heartless thing... How can I ever hear this?" Li Mo's heart skipped a beat.

"This prince is the later Emperor Qian and the present His Majesty."

"really!"

Li Mo's face slightly condensed, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty is indeed destined by fate. He has attained martial virtues and can even raise beings like the Eight Great Demon Immortals... He can be called an emperor for the ages."

"..."

Uncle Ma held the broom and couldn't help but be indifferent and speechless.

"What's wrong?"

"It would be a shame if you didn't join the palace and become a eunuch." Uncle Ma shook his head and put down the broom.

"Uncle Ma, do you even know these things?" Li Mo rolled his eyes slightly and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"You've only lived a long time... You have been with me for decades, and you will know..."

As he spoke, Uncle Ma turned and walked towards his hut. After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Don't raise foxes if you have nothing to do... Keep a low profile if you do. People in the capital... especially the elderly don't like foxes."

Uncle Ma's reminder was like the chirping of birds in the morning, ringing in Li Mo's ears.

"I've written it down." Li Mo shouted loudly, watching Uncle Ma return to the house.

At this moment, a cold snort came from beside him.

Li Mo turned around and looked around. He saw the little fox sitting cross-legged behind him, its long tail curled around its body, and its round eyes staring intently at Uncle Ma's thatched house.

"Are you awake?" Li Mo said with a smile.

"I don't like him... I hate him... I hate him so much... He is the fox, and their whole family is a fox..." the little fox said with his teeth and claws.

When Li Mo saw this, he couldn't help but smile, picked him up and rubbed his head.

"Then just stay in the yard and don't run around."

Li Mo leaned close to the little fox's ear and whispered: "It's getting cold, and the capital has begun to collect fur goods."

As he spoke, Li Mo put the little fox down.

"Where are you going?" the little fox asked from behind.

Li Mo didn't look back, waved his hand, and only uttered two words.

"work!"

…

Capital, Xuantian Pavilion.

Now that Li Mo is the [Titongdusi] of Hongmen, he receives the salary from the court, so he naturally has to pay his salary on time.

"grown ups……"

As soon as he arrived, Hong Xiaofu greeted him and bowed.

"What do you mean? Are you going to do this with me?" Li Mo rolled his eyes and said.

"This is the Xuantian Pavilion after all. I'm under your command now, so I'd better not mess with the rules." Hong Xiaofu said with a smile.

New disciples are generally not qualified to choose a sect when they first start. Only elites like Li Mo, Yue Xiaoxiang, and Lin Ming have priority.

When Li Mo entered Hongmen, he would naturally not forget Hong Xiaofu and Shang Xujian.

However, even he could only choose one of the new disciples to join his command.

Of the two, Li Mo naturally chose Hong Xiaofu.

Fortunately, Shang Xujian's luck was not bad and he did not enter the [Ling Gate] and [Martial Gate], which Li Mo had some trouble with, and was finally assigned to the [Prison Gate].

"What do you have in your hand?"

Li Mo didn't care. He looked at the parcel wrapped in brown paper in Hong Xiaofu's hand and asked.

"Medicine for Jianjian."

The "sword" in Hong Xiaofu's words naturally refers to Shangxu Sword.

"he is sick?"

"My butt hurts lately."

"Butt hurts? Then he must have a new friend."

As Li Mo spoke, he couldn't help but laugh. He laughed so wildly that it was hard to hold back. Hong Xiaofu's smile made Hong Xiaofu look confused.

"You guessed it right... He did just make a friend... I heard he is the daughter of a wealthy businessman..."

Hong Xiaofu said softly: "Jianjian spent a lot of effort to invite that girl to have dinner with him..."

"It just so happens that that girl is born with a liking for spicy food... She doesn't like spicy food, so Jianjian can only accompany her... Isn't this... a disability."

Hong Xiaofu shook the medicine bag in his hand. It contained medicine that could clear away heat and reduce fire. It was very good at soothing... the burning sensation.

"Are you risking your life? Which girl fascinated him so much?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask.

He knew that Shangxu Sword couldn't eat spicy food... not even the flakes of chili oil.

"Not sure... I just heard Jianjian say that the girl is the cutest he has ever seen." Hong Xiaofu shrugged, somewhat incomprehensible.

"The cutest?" Li Mo was stunned, and Master Ji's words suddenly rang out.

“The cutest thing is when a woman has her mouth full of little lives.”

"why are you laughing?"

Hong Xiaofu looked at Li Mo standing there, laughing for no reason, and couldn't help but ask.

"No...nothing...just hurry up and give him medicine."

Li Mo waved his hand, urging Hong Xiaofu, and immediately turned around and walked into the inner courtyard of Hongmen.

This is where he usually does errands.

"Li Mo..."

Wang Lingce walked over, took Li Mo's hand, and called him to the side.

"You rejected Yuan Changqing!?"

"Do you even know about it?" Li Mo glanced at it. In just one night, Wang Lingce actually got wind of it.

"How did you talk about it? I heard that Yuan Changqing was furious..."

Wang Lingce obviously didn't know what happened specifically, and looked at Li Mo with some concern.

"After all, he is a master of the earth sect, and he has seventeen princes behind him... I know that you have some friendship with Ning Guogong's young master..."

"But Ning Guogong's mansion is a bit unworthy in front of the seventeenth prince... How can you win?"

As he spoke, Wang Lingce had a trace of worry in his eyes, a bit like he hated iron for not being able to become steel.

Offending the seventeenth prince would end his future prospects.

"It has happened. I will pay attention to it in the future." Li Mo knew that Wang Lingce had good intentions, so he didn't say much.

"Brother, are you doing this so early in the morning?"

"Is this a trivial matter?" Wang Lingce rolled his eyes at Li Mo before saying.

"Your Xuantian Dao fetal energy... can be cashed in!"
