Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 594 Even Erlang Shen had to temporarily avoid the limelight
At night, the sky is full of stars.

The stars are like fine sand, spread out in the blue night sky.

Chen Yun, who had just refined the "Immortal-Slaying Gourd", was a little excited and eager to test its power.

He was just about to use the teleportation technique to try it out in an unmanned place, when suddenly an idea flashed through his mind, "It seems that using it on a dead object cannot test the true power."

Chen Yun blinked and thought to himself, "It just so happens that Erlang Shen is in Laojun Temple right now. He practices the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, which is known for its powerful soul and strong body. Can I find him to test its power?"

Chen Yun had already known that the power of the "Killing" Law could destroy all living things in the world.

Therefore, even if Erlang Shen agrees to be his experimental subject later, Chen Yun will tell him how powerful the "Immortal-Slaying Gourd" is so that he can be fully prepared and will not be completely killed.

"Talk to my second brother about it."

Thinking about this, Chen Yun slowly stood up.

Walk towards the outside of the meditation room.

Open the door.

Just came outside the door.

He saw Erlang Shen sitting beside the stone table in the yard, drinking with six of the Seven Saints of Meishan.

Well, Huashan Sanlang is still in Yang Yuanguang’s house and hasn’t come back yet.

Chen Yun stepped forward and greeted, "Second brother, all the brothers."

"Brother Chen, are you out of quarantine?"

"You have been in seclusion for more than ten days. Have you produced any treasure?"

Guo Yazhi, Marshal E, King Da, Zhou Cang, Sayinkun, the yellow-haired boy and others all looked back.

Erlang Shen was staring at the purple-gold gourd in Chen Yun's hand, and said in surprise: "I seem to have seen this purple-gold gourd somewhere before."

Guo Yazhi frowned and said, "I think I've seen it before."

Suddenly, Erlang Shen seemed to remember something and asked in doubt, "Brother Chen, could this purple-gold gourd of yours be a gift from Laojun?"

Chen Yun smiled and nodded, "That's right."

"what?"

"Is this really the purple gold gourd given by Laojun?"

Guo Yazhi, Marshal E, King Da and others were shocked.

Erlang Shen said with envy, "It is said that when the chaos was first separated and the heaven and earth were created, when Laojun was teaching all living things, he found a fairy vine at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. On it grew ten purple-gold gourds. Each gourd corresponds to a kind of innate Dao Qi. They are rare treasures in the world."

It turns out that this is a treasure that has existed since the beginning of the world.

Chen Yun finally realized how precious this purple-gold gourd was.

Erlang Shen suddenly asked, "Brother, what is the mystery of your using this gourd to refine a magical instrument?"

Guo Yazhi, Marshal E, King Da, Zhou Cang, Sayinkun and the yellow-haired boy all showed curiosity.

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Second brother, why don't you try it yourself? Then you will know the mystery of my gourd, right?"

Erlang Shen laughed dumbly and said, "So you came to me to test the power of the gourd. I was wondering why you held the treasure in your hand. Well, I will accompany you to test it."

Just as Chen Yun was about to speak, ripples appeared in space.

The next moment, Huashan Sanlang appeared and asked, "Second brother, brothers, what are you talking about?"

Sayinkun looked over and said, "Brother Chen used the purple gold gourd given by Laojun to refine a magic weapon, and was preparing to find Brother Erlang to test its mystery."

"Then I'm back just in time." Huashan Sanlang said with a smile, "I can see the power of Brother Chen's treasure."

Erlang Shen looked over and asked, "How is the matter going?"

Chen Yun also looked at Huashan Saburo, wanting to know the result.

Huashan Sanlang laughed loudly and said, "I used a little trick and they have already fallen for it. I just left Yang Yuanguang's residence for less than a moment and a group of Khitan dignitaries prepared their carriages and horses and headed for the palace. If nothing unexpected happens, they will have a night talk with the Khitan emperor in a while. As for what the talk will lead to, I don't know."

Erlang Shen looked at Chen Yun and said, "Brother, do you want to take a peek?"

Chen Yun seemed very casual and said, "No need, second brother, come with me to test the power of the gourd."

"That's fine." Erlang Shen nodded, standing there with a bit of pride: "Just bring up the gourd, I'll deal with it as it happens."

Chen Yun quickly explained: "My gourd releases the power of the law of 'killing'. Even a celestial being will perish if hit. Second brother, you should be more careful."

Erlang Shen didn't take it seriously at all, "It's okay, just go ahead and offer it."

Seeing Erlang Shen's confident look, Chen Yun guessed that the other party must be sure enough, otherwise he would not be so arrogant.

He hummed, "Shan, then second brother, I'm so sorry for offending you."

Seeing that Chen Yun was about to offer the purple gold gourd, Guo Yazhi, Marshal E, King Da, Zhou Cang, Sayinkun, the yellow-haired boy, Huashan Sanlang and others stood to both sides, leaving enough space for Chen Yun and Erlang Shen.

Chen Yun held the gourd in his palm and called out, "Hurry!"

The next moment, white light came out from the mouth of the gourd, and a white light with eyebrows and eyes appeared.

This is completely different from Chen Yun's own use of the power of the "killing" law.

When he exerts the power of the "killing" law, a "yellow light" with eyes and eyebrows will burst out from his mouth.

The reason why it has turned into white light now is because the power of the "killing" law is attached to the Taibai Yuan, and it presents the color of the Taibai Yuan.

The moment this ray of light appeared, a terrifying sense of murderous aura spread between heaven and earth.

Guo Yazhi, who was watching the fight from the side, suddenly changed his expression.

There was a hint of fear on Huashan Sanlang's face.

Marshal E, Prince Da, Zhou Cang, Sayinkun, the yellow-haired boy and others could not help but show shock on their faces.

The Seven Saints of Meishan are all in the realm of immortals, so they can naturally sense the incredible killing power contained in this ray of light!
Even the Seven Saints of Meishan who were bystanders could sense it, not to mention Erlang Shen who was facing the light head-on.

At this moment, he only felt an extremely terrifying breath coming towards him.

It seemed that as long as he was hit, all traces of his existence would completely disappear from the heavens and the world, without a trace left!

This made Erlang Shen feel like he was facing a formidable enemy, and he immediately used a powerful technique.

The next moment, the light broke through the layers of time and space restrictions at incredible speed and suddenly came near Erlang Shen.

Everyone saw the white light swirling around Erlang Shen's neck.

In an instant, Erlang Shen's body was split into two, and all life inside was gone. Only ashes were left, floating in the wind!

……

In the palace.

Yelu Deguang had already gone to bed.

Suddenly, a eunuch came to report that Yang Yuanguang, Zhu Yanshou and a group of dignitaries had entered the palace to meet the emperor, saying that there was an important matter to discuss with him in detail.

Yelu Deguang valued the two surrendered generals, Yang Yuanguang and Zhu Yanshou, very much. Knowing their abilities, he always treated them with special favor.

Although he felt a little annoyed that his sweet dream was disturbed, as a great leader, he naturally would not bear any grudge about it.

Yelu Deguang changed into casual clothes and walked towards the study.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Yang Yuanguang, Zhu Yanshou and others sitting on chairs with frowns on their brows.

Yelu Deguang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized that something big might have happened, otherwise these people would not have such ugly expressions.

He took the initiative to ask: "What important matter do you have to come to the palace in the middle of the night?"

"I have met His Majesty."

"I am deeply troubled to disturb your Majesty's rest."

Everyone stood up and saluted.

After greeting him, Yang Yuanguang frowned and said, "Your Majesty, we came to the palace this time because we do have an important matter to discuss with you."

Yelu Deguang walked towards the desk and asked casually, "What's the matter?"

Yang Yuanguang glanced at Zhu Yanshou, and then asked respectfully: "May I ask Your Majesty, did Mr. Chen Pu bring a Mr. Zhao to the palace to meet the emperor some time ago?"

Yelu Deguang sat down on the chair and nodded slightly, saying, "It is true. What do you want to say, Mr. Yang?"

Zhu Yanshou took over and continued to ask: "Did Mr. Zhao reveal his identity to His Majesty?"

Yelu Deguang did not hide anything and said honestly: "Mr. Zhao has revealed his identity. He said that he is the King of Chicheng, the god of the Erlang Temple in Guanjiang."

Zhu Yanshou asked again, "Mr. Chen and the Prince of Chicheng came to Your Majesty to persuade Your Majesty to lead the army south and strive to conquer the world?"

"Yes." Yelu Deguang was a little puzzled. "These are all secret talks between me, Mr. Chen, and the King of Chicheng. How did you know about them?"

"It's a disaster, your majesty."

"You shouldn't have rejected them!"

"This time, our Khitan is in imminent danger!"

Yang Yuanguang, Zhu Yanshou and other dignitaries started shouting as if a real disaster was about to happen.

Yelu Deguang was a little confused by the crowd. He pressed his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then asked with a strange look on his face: "What disaster happened?"

Yang Yuanguang said: "Your Majesty, just listen to me and I will tell you in detail."

Yelu Deguang said: "Please speak."

Yang Yuanguang said: "More than ten days ago, a sacred person came to our imperial capital, and he transformed into a fortune teller..."

Yelu Deguang interrupted, "I know about this. It is said that the three leaders of the Shamanism have all gone there and they were very respectful to that saint. The reason for this is that the saint is the third son of the Great Emperor of Xiyue, Jin Tianwang, and he is also one of the Seven Saints of Meishan in the Guanjiang Erlang Temple, called Huashan Sanlang, right?"

"Correct!"

Yang Yuanguang nodded affirmatively.

Yelu Deguang was puzzled and asked, "What does he have to do with my Khitan disaster?"

“Your Majesty, just let me finish and you’ll know.” Yang Yuanguang continued, “We all know that Mr. Hao is a very important person and a divine being with great powers, so we all came to visit him and asked him to tell our fortunes. Today is Brother Zhu’s turn to tell our fortunes, and tomorrow it will be my turn. However, Mr. Hao said that today’s fortune telling will not count, and he will leave the imperial capital tomorrow. I wanted to curry favor with him, so I invited him to my home. I originally thought that he would not agree, but who would have thought that he actually accepted the invitation in the end. After that, I asked people to prepare good wine and food, and hosted a banquet at noon and at night. Especially the dinner, we drank until about midnight. During the period, Mr. Hao might have drunk too much and revealed a shocking secret to us, and this secret is about the safety of my Khitan!”

Zhu Yanshou and other dignitaries on the side nodded repeatedly, indicating that what Yang Yuanguang said was true.

Yelu Deguang was startled. "What secret did he reveal?"

Yang Yuanguang said solemnly, "Mr. Hao accidentally revealed that Mr. Chen Pu and the King of Chicheng felt that Your Majesty was timid and afraid to lead the army south, and was not a heroic leader. Therefore, they plan to leave Khitan tomorrow and may... surrender to the court of the Jin Dynasty in the south!"

As soon as these words came out, Yelu Deguang stood up in shock, "What? Mr. Chen Pu and the Prince of Chicheng want to surrender to the Southern Dynasty?"

"It's not just Mr. Chen Pu and the King of Chicheng." Zhu Yanshou said in great detail, "According to what Mr. Hao said when he was drunk, Mr. Chen Pu originally invited all the sacred beings in the Guanjiang Erlang Temple, as well as all his disciples, to help Your Majesty strike a blow to the arrogance of the Jin Dynasty. Now that Your Majesty has refused, the entire Guanjiang Erlang Temple and Mr. Chen Pu's disciples will all go to the Southern Dynasty to assist!"

Yelu Deguang's face turned pale and he fell down on the chair.

He certainly knew what would happen if all the sacred beings in Erlang Temple and the disciples of Mr. Chen Pu defected to the Jin Dynasty.

By then, the many sacred figures of Khitan Shamanism and the sacred figures in the temples of the spirit beasts will definitely not be able to resist.

Then, Khitan is in imminent danger!
At this moment, Yelu Deguang finally realized how stupid he was for rejecting Chen Pu and Erlang Shen’s proposal to attack the Jin Dynasty!
……

In Laojun Temple.

Guo Yazhi, Huashan Sanlang, Marshal E, King Da, Zhou Cang, Sayinkun and the yellow-haired boy were all staring at the "corpse" of Erlang Shen lying on the ground in amazement.

They didn't seem to have expected that Chen Yun's gourd magic weapon was so powerful that even Erlang Shen, who was close to the level of a celestial being, couldn't resist it and was killed in an instant!
This made Guo Yazhi, Huashan Sanlang, E Dashuai and others extremely frightened, and they felt that every hair on their body stood up.

When Chen Yun saw Erlang Shen being killed, he also became anxious. "Did I really kill Brother Erlang? No, I have to go to Penglai and ask Master if there is any way to save Brother Erlang."

With that said, he was about to leave.

Who would have thought that a loud laugh would sound out from the void, "Brother Chen, don't worry, Zhao is fine."

As soon as he finished speaking, Erlang Shen emerged from nothingness.

Guo Yazhi, Huashan Sanlang, E Dashuai and others showed expressions of "as expected".

It seemed that they had known for a long time that Erlang Shen was fine.

Chen Yun didn't know the situation, and looked slightly surprised and asked: "Brother Erlang, are you okay?"

Erlang Shen pointed and said, "Look at the ground."

Chen Yun looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that Erlang Shen's "corpse" was no longer on the ground. Instead, there was a piece of peach wood that was turning to ashes.

He realized something and blinked, "Did you just use the Peach Substitute Plum Zombie Technique?"

Erlang Shen nodded and said, "Yes, this is my life-saving skill. Since Zhao started practicing Taoism, I have only used it twice in total. The first time was when I carried a mountain to catch up with the sun. At that time, my cultivation was still shallow, and I had been fighting with the Golden Crow for a long time. I had no choice but to use the method of "Peach Substitutes a Plum" to deceive the Golden Crow, and then secretly attacked it, subdued it in one fell swoop, and brought it back to the Heavenly Palace for report. The second time was when I faced the purple gold gourd you offered up. I really felt powerless to resist, and was afraid that the power of the "Killing" law would kill my life, so I used the method of "Peach Substitutes a Plum."

At this point, he made a very pertinent comment, "The power exerted by your purple gold gourd is so powerful that even a celestial being would be killed if accidentally hit. The only way to survive is to rely on dodging to temporarily avoid the sharp edge. I have to say, it's really amazing!"

You know, Erlang Shen is already infinitely close to the celestial realm, yet he is still praised so highly. You can imagine the power of the purple gold gourd!
