I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 585 The Li Family's Treasure
Upon seeing this, Chen Ji couldn't help but be somewhat surprised. This scroll was the sect's most prized treasure; even those trapped within it at the Dao Palace realm would find it difficult to escape. Even against a Saint, it would be invincible.

Unexpectedly, today this person wielded a wooden whip, shattering the painting's imposing presence.

"What kind of magic weapon is this?" Chenji wondered in surprise.

Without much thought, he formed a secret technique. The previously scattered power of the scroll reassembled, the mountains and rivers within were rebuilt, and the stars returned to their places. A long rainbow appeared and swept towards Jiang Wen and the others.

The mighty Yangtze River flows like a galaxy.

The rainbow transformed into the mighty Yangtze River, washing over everyone with overwhelming force.

Jiang Wen felt as if the rainbow were a towering mountain range, its weight pressing down upon him. Behind him, Li Yunshang, Lü Shiming, and A Meng were also covered in sweat, their faces pale. Clearly, they had been overwhelmed by the power of the scroll and could not withstand its weight.

"The waters of my myriad lakes are enough to obliterate even a True Person at the pinnacle of the Dao Palace. How could you juniors possibly stand in my way?" Morning Rooster chuckled, standing in the air like a sharp weapon. Her feathered robes fluttered, making her appear like a goddess descending to earth. Behind her, everyone bowed down, offering their congratulations and flattery to the Venerable One.

"Your Excellency's abilities are unparalleled throughout the ages. How could this mere child from the Tai Shen Palace be a match for you?" the old man bowed deeply.

"Hmph, if they could do more and talk less and do more, the God Worship Association wouldn't be in such a state." Morning Chicken looked at the old man coldly and said with great disdain. "The Emperor has not been in power for a long time, and you all indulge in your own pleasures, forgetting the purpose of our God Worship Association."

Upon hearing this, the old man felt a cold sweat break out all over his body. His heart trembled, and he bowed shakily to the rooster, saying, "Your Excellency is benevolent and righteous; we have tried our best. However, Princess Shenyun possesses numerous magical treasures, making it truly difficult to capture her. That is why we have been delayed for so long, troubling Your Excellency to personally come to our aid. We beg Your Excellency's forgiveness, and that we may dedicate ourselves to the worship of the gods in the future. We are willing to go through fire and water, even unto death, without regret."

Chenji listened quietly to the old man's words, her expression behind the mask unchanged. Her eyes were as still as water, devoid of any emotion. Just standing there quietly, her graceful figure was enough to send chills down the spines of everyone at the worship ceremony.

Any member of the God Worshipping Society knows that the most terrifying person in the society is not John Lone or any other venerable figure, but rather this seemingly frail woman before them—Chen Ji.

The Morning Rooster holds the power of life and death in the Worshiping Gods Society, sparing even the Venerables. Anyone who fails to exert their utmost will meet a tragic end at their hands. The old man has been a member of the Worshiping Gods Society for quite some time and has heard many rumors. One of them is that since the establishment of the Worshiping Gods Society, apart from Venerable Dragon and a few other Venerables who have remained unchanged, all other Venerables have been succeeded by later generations.

Those revered beings who once existed were all killed by the morning rooster.

The methods employed by the Morning Rooster are extremely cruel to traitors. Their souls are extracted and placed in some kind of purgatory from which they cannot escape.

That is why the old man and the worshippers were so afraid of the morning rooster.

"I'll spare you this time, but if you're just as incompetent next time, don't blame me for being ruthless," Morning Chicken said coldly.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, we will do our utmost!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and loudly flattered him.

At that very moment, the situation changed dramatically.

Beneath that magnificent painting, the once radiant rainbow suddenly shattered.

A golden light seemed to clash, rushing towards the rooster. This golden light was extremely fast, reaching him in an instant.

The rooster's eyes gleamed with a golden light; it was a short sword, no more than a few feet long. Yet, it was this very short sword that made her feel the impending danger of death.

A hint of fear flashed across her eyes before she turned and vanished into mist.

The golden light pierced through the clouds and then flew back to the ground after passing through several members of the God Worshipping Society.

As the clouds gathered again, Chenji stood before the painting, still shaken.

"What a treasure! It's truly formidable," Chenji exclaimed. She looked down warily and saw Jiang Wen holding a wooden whip, surrounded by the Tai Xuan Mirror, with a short sword perched on top of him, his Taoist robe fluttering in the wind. His eyes were like lightning, and his tall figure met her gaze.

"Your magic weapon doesn't seem to be that useful," Jiang Wen said with a smile. "Since we're in the Black Mountain, unexpected things can happen. It would be best if we each took a step back and left sooner."

"Hmph, you are all birds in a cage, how could I listen to your words? My Worshiping God Society has thousands of disciples, weaving a net that can't be escaped. No matter how you try to flee, you will find it hard to break free. But how long can you hold out alone? Hand over Princess Shenyun, and I will consider letting you go." Chenji waved her sleeve, her tone indifferent. The scroll in front of her changed again, the illusion within transforming into a snowy wonderland.

"If you still don't comply, I will show no mercy." "So, there's no room for negotiation?" Jiang Wen shook his head and sighed.

He looked at the deep sky behind the rooster and couldn't help but feel a little helpless. If he could, he really didn't want to fight the God Worshippers here. This wasn't just because they outnumbered him, but more importantly, this was Black Mountain.

Although the place we are in now is safe, the omnipresent spiritual energy is already restless.

Clearly, his battle with the rooster had alerted something.

"Leave Princess Shenyun behind, and you may leave. Otherwise, you will die!" Chenji said coldly.

“Then that’s the only way.” Jiang Wen said, then turned to look at the three people behind him. “If you’ve recovered a little, take out your life-saving magic weapons. Stay close to me and don’t fall behind, otherwise I’m afraid I won’t be able to take care of you.”

"Yes!" Li Yunshang nodded quickly, and took out the sword box and carried it on her back.

Lu Shiming controlled the Mountain and River Cauldron, protecting himself and A'meng within it. As for A'meng, she draped a crystal-clear feather robe over her body.

Jiang Wen gripped the wooden whip and took out four yellow talismans from his pocket, throwing them into the sky.

"Four Heavenly Kings, come to my aid!!"

"Understood!" Four voices shouted in unison, and four yellow talismans took root on the ground, transforming into giant gods tens of feet tall, holding magical artifacts and standing on the earth.

His robes fluttered, and his body stood tall and imposing.

Each of the four colors is distinct, yet they are all earth-shattering.

"What kind of secret technique is this?!" Everyone was shocked, wondering what kind of magic Jiang Wen had used. He could actually summon such a strange giant, as if a god had descended to earth.

Before the worshippers could even begin to investigate the divine summoning spell, the Four Heavenly Kings set out to perform the incantation.

The Heavenly King Dhritarashtra holds a pipa and plucks it, the music shaking the heavens and the earth.

The Heavenly King of Growth wielded his sword, which underwent countless transformations, and countless flying swords converged in the sky, covering the entire world.

The Heavenly King Guangmu rode a crimson dragon, which soared into the sky and transformed into a colossal beast hundreds of feet tall. It flew towards the worshippers, determined to devour them whole.

The Heavenly King Vaishravana held a precious umbrella, which transformed into a colossal structure a thousand feet tall, obscuring the sky and the sun, creating a magnificent spectacle alongside the painting.

When the Four Heavenly Kings attacked together, the followers of the God Worshipping Society suffered.

Some people covered their ears with splitting headaches, while others screamed in agony as they were pierced by flying swords.

Some were devoured by the red dragon, while others were absorbed into the giant umbrella.

The originally densely packed crowd of cultivators was reduced to two or three-tenths in an instant.

This made Chen Ji's face darken, knowing that she was not going to have a good end today. The person in front of her was truly powerful; she had never seen such magic before.

"I never expected you to be so capable." Chen Ji looked at Jiang Wen with a strange glint in her eyes. She didn't stand idly by, but instead took out two magical artifacts from her sleeve.

One of them is a ding (a type of ancient Chinese cooking vessel), but this ding is completely different from the Shanhe Ding (a type of ancient Chinese cooking vessel).

The other item is a seal, and this seal is also extraordinary.
