The founder of all religions

Late at night, dark clouds crossed, covering the lonely moon.

A ray of dim moonlight fell on Yizhuang in the outer city, making the tattered door plaque even more eerie.

At this moment, a harsh "creaking" sound came from the Yi Zhuang, like fingernails scraping the coffin board, with a hint of dullness.

"Master Shadow, come out."

Chen Wangdu walked away from the night and followed the movement into Yizhuang.

boom……

Suddenly, an old coffin burst into pieces, and a heavily soaked corpse rolled out. His face, hands and feet were swollen like a giant, and he looked like he had drowned.

The next moment, a shadow crawled out of the swollen corpse in the moonlight and turned into a human form.

"Chen Wangdu, what's going on?"

When Shadow saw Chen Wangdu, he sternly questioned him, revealing deep anger and suspicion.

Tonight was originally a perfect layout. There was a vicious array hidden in Wuji Ridge, and the sheep demon showed up to capture Li Mo. Everything fell into place without any suspense.

But who could have imagined that such a change would happen overnight.

All the masters under Yang Xingba died in Wuji Ridge, not even a single person was left alive. As for Yang Xingba, his whereabouts were missing, and his life or death is unknown now.

Such a big thing has already alarmed the higher-ups.

Fortunately, the shadow was not there at the time, so this disaster was avoided. Now the first person he suspected was Chen Wangdu.

"You ask me? I also want to ask you what's going on?"

Chen Wangdu's face suddenly sank, as if he had been greatly wronged: "Didn't you say that I only need to lure Li Mo out of the city?"

"I'll leave the rest to you..."

"Who can promise me that the next thing will be much easier?"

"This..." Shadow was choked up and speechless by Chen Wangdu's barrage of questions.

"Did I lead anyone over to you?"

"Yes, but..."

"Then is my mission completed?"

"Okay, but..."

"But you didn't do what you promised me. Now that Li Mo is safe and sound, do you think he will doubt me?"

The blue veins on Chen Wangdu's forehead popped out, showing unconcealable anger, and his red eyes were full of doubts and accusations.

"Do you know how much risk I took on this?"

Chen Wangdu is like a child who has suffered great grievance: "If there is suspicion over there, they will be the first to investigate me. I will be at risk of being exposed at any time..."

"I can retire in ten years..."

"fifteen years……"

"Don't fucking correct me."

Chen Wangdu seemed to have lost his mind: "I have a wife and children in the capital... everything I own is almost pushed to the edge of ruin..."

"And the one who made things so bad...is you."

"No one wants something like this to happen."

Shadow's voice became a bit scornful. Faced with Chen Wangdu's anger and doubts, he chose to appease him.

"Who would have thought that he would have been prepared and come with experts..."

As he spoke, Shadow glanced at Chen Wangdu intentionally or unintentionally.

"The master he brought is definitely not from the library. Otherwise, if there is a real transfer of troops, I will definitely inform you in advance and will not lead him to Wuji Ridge." Chen Wangdu said solemnly.

Shadow heard the words, but remained silent.

Chen Wangdu was not the only spy placed by Guixu in the Xuantian Pavilion. He knew that what Chen Wangdu said was true.

In fact, even Hongmen is not sure who the experts brought by Li Mo are. The most likely reason is that they relied on the power of the Zhennan Palace.

After all, this Hongmen upstart had a good relationship with the Prince of Zhennan.

"You haven't even figured out his trump card yet, yet you are so brazen and confident that you will leave the rest of the matter to you..."

Chen Wangdu shouted in a deep voice: "Who will clean up this mess now? Who will guarantee my safety?"

Shadow thought about it, and it seemed that Chen Wangdu was not to blame for this incident. Strictly speaking, Chen Wangdu had completed the task well.

"You stay dormant for now, don't make any moves, wait until the limelight has passed... We won't be in contact these days."

Shadow made a quick decision. There were already doubts about Chen Wangdu. If he made any further moves, he would be at risk of being exposed.

Now that I think about it, there must be a spy among them.

"I took a huge risk and dismissed me with just one sentence?" Chen Wangdu said reluctantly.

"Add more money...you have to add more money!"

Chen Wangdu's words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth, as if he wanted to eat people.

Shadow was silent for a moment, then took out a small green copper bottle from his arms and threw it to Chen Wangdu.

"There are twenty Pure Yang Pills in here, which will be enough for you to use for a while." Shadow said solemnly.

If it were in the past, he would naturally not allow Chen Wangdu to be so presumptuous. After all, the former Chen Wangdu was just a chess piece that could not be reused and was dispensable.

But it's different now. He is valued by Li Mo and his value is extraordinary.

Therefore, Shadow felt that it was still necessary to cultivate such a chess piece. At critical moments, some people could even be sacrificed so that he could make contributions and prove his innocence.

"Pure Yang Pill!?" Chen Wangdu's eyes lit up.

This is the breath of heaven and earth, a great innate medicine, and it is considered a treasure in the Xuantian Pavilion.

In the past, as a secret agent of Guixu, he only received some yellow and white things every month as salary. How could he get a reward like Pure Yang Pill! ?

"Master Sheep's life and death are unknown now. If you have a chance, please help find out..."

Shadow suddenly said: "Of course, you must ensure your own safety first. It doesn't matter if you can't spy."

Chen Wangdu was just a link in the intelligence network in Shadow's hands, and his arrangements were just casual remarks.

"I see."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow turned around and disappeared as if blending into the shadow.

"Pure Yang Pill...it's such a good thing."

Chen Wangdu looked at the small green bottle in his hand and finally couldn't contain the joy in his heart.

He was only lucky enough to get one of this kind of treasure when he was practicing Spiritual Breath.

The innate medicine is indeed extraordinary. After refining, it is like puffing up Danxia and activating the flesh and blood. It is a wonderful use.

Now, Chen Wangdu has twenty Pure Yang Pills in his hand.

You know, with Li Mo's current status, he can only receive six Pure Yang Pills from the museum every month.

These twenty Pure Yang Pills are enough for Chen Wangdu to go one step further, to comprehend the [Living Miao Realm], and even to attack the [Shang Miao Realm] in the future.

"Lord Li Mo is indeed my lucky star, shining brightly all over the sky...my luck has come." Chen Wangdu excitedly held the green copper vial in his hand.

Originally, for a small character like him to be able to live safely until retirement, it can be regarded as the smoke rising from the ancestral grave.

But now it seems that he is a late bloomer and can still make a career move before retiring.

"I am a dignified official of the imperial court, and I am rebelling with you? Is my brain rusty?"

Chen Wangdu looked at the direction where the shadow disappeared and secretly took a breath.

He weighed the small green bottle in his hand and couldn't help but sneered: "Help you find out?"

"Pry about your grandma!"

In the hazy night, Chen Wangdu put the green copper vial into his arms with peace of mind and walked out of Yizhuang.

…

Mingju in the eastern suburbs.

When Li Mo came back, it was almost cold.

Zhu Gangxie, Kui Gang, Wang Jiu, Ji Tiantiao, Mosquito Taoist, and the little fox surrounded the yard as if visiting a zoo. The big fat sheep with its horns broken off lay in the center of Li Mo's courtyard like a dead dog.

"What? You're not awake yet?"

"The old pig has peed on him for eight times. He is almost bald and can't wake up." Wang Jiu said casually.

"That's it..."

Li Mo waved his hand: "Old Zhu, go boil a pot of hot water..."

"Little bastard, prepare some sesame sauce, chive flowers, oyster sauce, sugar, chopped peanuts, chopped green onions, lettuce for me..."

"Little chicken, let's see if the soup that Uncle Ma sent is still there. Let's make a base of soup..."

"Master, what are you doing?" Qui-Gon couldn't help but ask.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten hot-boiled mutton." Li Mo smacked his lips.

BAA Baa baa……

At this moment, a rapid cry suddenly sounded in the yard, like a pig being killed, with a hint of fear.

"woke up!"

Yang Xingba opened his eyes and looked around.

This small courtyard was full of demons and ghosts. Zhu Ganghye, who was closest to him, seemed to have a black cloud hidden above his head, and his face turned into reality, with a faint and strange figure flickering.

There was also Kui Gang at the millstone, rubbing the iron egg in his hand until it made sparks.

Yang Xingba glanced at it, and the hair all over his body stood up.

It can't forget that in Wuji Ridge, it was this old cow who almost knocked it to pieces with just its physical body.

That feeling of fear and oppression still lingers in my mind.

Not to mention, Qui-Gon is a cow and he is a sheep, so he is naturally a little scared.

As for the others, Ji Tiantiao seemed to have a sword hidden in his eyes, as if he could stab you to death with just one glare.

Mosquito Taoist always looks like he doesn't have enough to eat. Oh my god, he really rides on his horse and sets up a big pot.

Wang Jiu looks the most normal... huh? He held a volume of health recipes in his hand.

"What...what's going on with this shabby courtyard?"

Yang Xingba was roaring in his heart, and his eyes were filled with fear.

How could he have imagined that there were so many terrifying monsters hiding in this remote and simple courtyard, with all kinds of phenomena, each one more different than the other.

Even though he was a master of [Demon City], facing such a battle, Yang Xingba suddenly seemed to have some good skills and was frightened.

"Is this the capital city? Can Emperor Daqian have these things at his feet?"

Yang Xingba's heart beat, and his eyes when he looked at Li Mo were full of shock and confusion.

"Li Mo? Who is he? Could it be that he is really the descendant of Black Sword?"

"No, even the descendant of Black Sword can't be so arrogant. He...where did he get so many powerful monsters?"

Yang Xingba murmured. Demons and ghosts like Zhugang Hyena, Kui Gang, etc., even among Guixu, are considered different. If they join, they will definitely cultivate them with all their strength.

On weekdays, such monsters are almost always encountered but not sought out.

But now, five people have gathered in this shabby courtyard at once... It's really unreasonable.

"Can we talk now?"

Li Mo didn't know that in just a short moment, Yang Xingba had already had more than 800 thoughts.

Yang Xingba raised his head and glanced at Li Mo, gritted his teeth and remained silent.

"Don't worry, God is kind to you. As long as you cooperate well, I will release you."

Li Mo has always paid attention to the mental health of demons and ghosts, a habit he developed in the Luofu Mountain Prison.

He knew that for Yang Xingba, who was in a desperate situation, only by giving him hope of survival would he be able to obey.

"Seriously?" Yang Xingba obviously didn't believe in Li Mo's character.

"I've always been like this. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

"That's the kind of person."

"We all know that we are used to being kind."

"It's so merciful. We were all released."

All the monsters said in unison.

"Okay, you guys should leave first, I'll let him have a chat alone."

Li Mo waved his hand, and without any explanation, he picked up Yang Xingba and entered his house.

boom……

Li Mo casually put Yang Xingba on the ground. The latter turned over, and the internal organs in his body seemed to be squeezed into one place, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.

Although God has the virtue of a happy life, Li Mo does not.

"Although I promised to release you, I don't have much patience." Li Mo looked at Yang Xingba coldly and said calmly: "If you don't say anything, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"you……"

Yang Xingba looked at Li Mo, who seemed to have changed, and was stunned for a moment.

"Did not say?"

Li Mo's eyes darkened, and his patience was obviously on the verge of exhaustion. He remained motionless, and an invisible force came suddenly, knocking Yang Xingba away.

The latter groaned and spit out a mouthful of old blood again, and deep cracks appeared on the broken horn.

He had already been beaten to death by Zhu Ganghye and Kui Gang when he was at Wuji Ridge. Now his cultivation level was less than 30% of what it was when he was at his peak. How could he withstand Li Mo's torture.

"you……"

"I'll give you one last chance. If you still choose to be tough, you'll have to say goodbye." Li Mo completely lost his patience and gave an ultimatum.

"You...you...you ask...what do you want me to say if you don't ask?"

Finally, Yang Xingba cried out "Wow", as if he had been wronged by God.

"Huh!?" Li Mo was stunned: "Have I not asked yet?"

Yang Xingba curled his lips, panted heavily, and looked at Li Mo with a look of resentment.

"Hahaha..." Li Mo laughed twice to hide his embarrassment. The next moment, he raised his hand and slapped Yang Xingba away again.

"Why did you hit me again?" Yang Xingba was confused.

"As a bad guy, don't you know what I want to ask you?"

"This...what the hell is this!?"

Yang Xingba was shouting and roaring in his heart... At this moment, the way he looked at Li Mo completely changed, like an innocent and weak mortal looking up at a crazed demon.

He never dreamed that there were such humanoid monsters in this world! ?

At this moment, he just wants to go home.

"Let's first talk about the latest trends in your return to the ruins...and your goals..."

Li Mo couldn't bear it and said calmly.

Yang Xingba hesitated for a moment, and glanced at Li Mo's eyes intentionally or unintentionally. After all, he chose to compromise and roughly said what should be said and what should not be said.

"Han Qi's notes...what secrets are hidden in them?"

After listening to Yang Xingba's narrative, Li Mo was silent for a moment and asked a key question.

Obviously, the masters from Guixu came here for Han Qi's notes and the Blood River Demon Fetus.

Li Mo roughly flipped through the notebook, and found that there were indeed all kinds of fantastic ideas, as well as many alternative methods. Of course, the most recorded ones were the research on the [Shengchuang Project] and [Xuantian Tao Seed].

"Did that thing fall into your hands?" Yang Xingba said suddenly.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Li Mo said a little surprised.

"If it didn't fall into your hands, you should ask what it is instead of asking what secrets are hidden in it... Obviously you have already seen it." Yang Xingba gritted his teeth.

"There is an old saying among human beings, which is that people who are too smart will not live long."

Li Mo glanced at it coldly and said immediately: "Answer my question, what secret is hidden in it?"

"About... Daozong Nemesis." Yang Xingba hesitated for a moment, but finally said it.

"Tao Zhong Nemesis!?" Li Mo frowned slightly.

He knew that while Han Qi was presiding over the creation of [Xuantian Dao Seed], he was also secretly researching ways to restrain Xuantian Dao Seed.

This also became the trigger for his break with Shenzong.

In the eyes of Shenzong, Xuantian Daozong should be a perfect creature. He breaks the rules of heaven and earth and carries all dharma. How can he have weaknesses and nemesis?

It was precisely because of such a rebellious act that the first generation leader of the Ling Sect rebelled against Xuantian Pavilion.

"You may know...as early as eighteen years ago, the Daqian Dynasty had successfully given birth to the [Xuantian Dao Seed]..." Yang Xingba gritted his teeth.

"so what?"

"Don't you find it strange? Since it was born, why has it not seen the light of day for eighteen years? It has never been exposed to the world of mortals?" Yang Xingba asked in return.

Li Mo was stunned. He had indeed had such doubts.

However, Gu Pingfan once said that Xuantian Taoism is not trivial and needs to be born at a specific time.

That day is the so-called [Xuan Tian's Birthday].

"Hehe, this is nonsense from Meng Gui..." Yang Xingba sneered.

"That's because something went wrong when Xuantian Dao Seed was born..."

Having said this, a cold smile appeared on Yang Xingba's face: "According to the original idea, from the moment Xuantian Dao Seed was born, it should be the most powerful creature in the world, breaking the laws of heaven and earth and carrying the world. All Dharmas..."

"It's a pity that how can such a heaven-defying creature be able to come to the world safely? Something went wrong with him after all. Although he is known as the most perfect creature, he has no innate power... It is just a baby... an unprecedented baby. …”

Yang Xingba paused for a moment and looked at Li Mo coldly: "Do you know why such a mistake occurred?"

"why?"

"Because in his later years, Shenzong finally adopted the idea of ​​Supreme Han Qi... Supreme Han Qi was right..."

"You mean..." Li Mo's heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely guessed something.

"That's right... when they created the Xuantian Dao Seed, they also created his nemesis..."

"Hey, those are two babies... just like the two sides of Yin and Yang, chaos condenses into one..."

"Mysterious destinies have been intertwined ever since... Han Qi's notes contain the true secret of Xuantian Taoism..."

With a thought in his mind, Li Mo took out Han Qi's notes and flipped through the yellowed scroll one after another. He found the record about [Tao Zhong Nemesis], and finally found an inconspicuous line of comments among the densely packed small characters.

"For every kind of life, there is also a kind of death!"

Thanks to Mr. Fox for the reward! ! ! Thank you!
