Chapter 362: Mount Shu Taiwei

“This disaster is also the misfortune of my young son. Your Majesty, don’t worry about it. He is not blessed enough and has a shallow fate. After all, he does not have that blessing.” The female fairy of the dragon clan was quite aggrieved, and seemed to be feeling sad for Ba Xia.

Such a good opportunity was ruined by the Shushan Sect.

"May I ask who you are, fellow Taoist?"

Mu Yi considered his title. The mother of Ba Xia was a real dragon. Her bloodline must be the direct descendant of the dragon clan of the four seas, and she could also isolate the connection between the two worlds.

"I dare not call you my Taoist friend in front of the Lord of Heaven!"

"I am the Dragon King of the East Sea of ​​this world, Ao Rong!"

The corner of Mu Yi's mouth twitched. No wonder, although the four dragon kings of Jiuzhou were not of high rank, due to the special nature of the dragon clan, they had always been on an equal footing with the Ten Kings of Hell, all of them were third-rank gods.

The four dragon kings in this world are definitely not as high in rank as the four dragon kings in the local area, but at least they are on par with the founder of Shushan Sect.

It is really easy to trip up the Shushan Sect and the Emei Sect.

If it weren't for the strict rules of heaven, I'm afraid I wouldn't have waited until the Blood Demon was born.

It was estimated that the moment the Shushan Sect captured Ba Xia and locked the Demon Tower, the Dragon King of the East China Sea would flood Shushan.

"Now that the affairs of this world are settled, why don't the Dragon King take away the method of making clouds and rain first, so that we can have a good talk with the Patriarch of Mount Shu about the affairs of this world!"

To be honest, Mu Yi could understand what the Dragon King did. After all, there were reasons for it.

The birth of the Blood Demon was also Shushan Sect's own fault, and the extermination of Shushan Sect all deserved it.

But allowing the blood demon to wreak havoc would affect so many innocent people in Shu, which made Mu Yi unhappy. After all, he was a human being and had to consider issues from the perspective of the human race.

However, the main culprit, the Blood Demon, had already been killed by him. When he wanted to settle the score next, he had to call down the founder of the Shushan Sect to settle the score together.

He had no friendship with his colleagues in Heaven, and was even less familiar with the founder of the Shushan School. At least he should let him come down first and see what the other party's attitude was.

After understanding Mu Yi's attitude, Ao Rong hesitated for a moment, and withdrew his technique of controlling the clouds and rain. The dense dark clouds immediately began to retreat.

A moment later, a beam of light fell from the sky, and the founder of Shushan Sect fell down from the heaven in a hurry.

Mu Yi and Ao Rong were suspended above the sky, waiting for the founder of the Shushan Sect to come up and settle the accounts.

However, what Mu Yi did not expect was that the founder of Shushan Sect asked Jingwei something and turned into a sword light and rushed into the sky.

"Evil dragon, you are so arrogant that you claim to be the Dragon King of the Four Seas. How dare you plot to destroy my lineage? Today I will kill you, the evil dragon who stirs up trouble and helps Zhou to commit evil!"

The founder of Shushan School had an immortal look and held a magic sword in his hand. With a casual swing of the sword, he drew a dazzling sword light of hundreds of feet long and slashed towards Ao Rong.

Mu Yi blinked and almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.

In fact, he had all the assumptions about how the founder of Shushan Sect would react, but he had never considered that the other party would react in this way.

Even if the status of the Four Seas Dragon Kings is not as high as that of the true gods in heaven, they are of the same rank. You, a mere wandering god without any divine duties, come and kill the Four Seas Dragon Kings. Are you really lawless?

Ao Rong seemed to have anticipated this. He stretched out his hand and summoned several heavenly thunders to extinguish the sword light. Then he turned his head to look at Mu Yi, as if asking Mu Yi what to do.

Mu Yi's face darkened, and he immediately realized that Ao Rong had plotted against him.

The other party had no intention of stopping from the beginning and obeyed me just to get me to stand on the same side with her. The other party wanted to kill the founder of Shushan Sect directly.

Yes, today Ba Xia was captured. Will her other sons also be killed someday?
Mu Yi really wanted to turn around and leave, letting these two bastards fight to the death, but he was worried that the two bastards would fight to the point of causing chaos and affecting innocent people again, so he had no choice but to stand up.

"Please come up and talk to me, fellow Taoist!"

Mu Yi's voice spread, and the founder of Shushan Sect seemed to hesitate for a moment, then broke through the air and flew up.

"Greetings to the Heavenly Emperor. You saved my Shushan Taoist sect from danger. Taiwei thanks you!" He seemed quite polite to Mu Yi.

"Do you know the whole story, fellow Daoist?"

Mu Yi was worried that Taiwei didn't understand the truth, which was why he was so furious and wanted to kill Ao Rong.

"Lord of the Heavens, I already know the whole story. The blood demon was so fierce that it almost destroyed my Shushan Taoist lineage. This evil dragon separated the two worlds and helped Zhou to commit evil. I must kill it today to restore justice to the world!"

Taiwei's words made Mu Yi's heart sink, and he asked in a deep voice.

"The Blood Demon grew stronger because Shushan captured Ba Xia, who was guarding the dangerous place, and that is why today's disaster happened. Do you know that?"

"What's wrong with slaying demons? Besides, Shushan only pressed it into the Demon Locking Tower, but didn't kill it. If it weren't for this demon dragon, I could kill the blood demon with one sword, and there would be no disaster!"

Taiwei responded to Mu Yi's question with a righteous look on his face.

Mu Yi rubbed his brows with a headache. He finally knew from whom the Shushan Sect's tradition of slaying demons and eliminating evil was passed down.

"Your Majesty, you don't know that Taiwei of Shushan was famous for holding the Demon-Suppressing Sword and killing all kinds of demons in the world. He didn't distinguish between good and evil, race, or circumstances, and he would never let go even those who were half-demons." Ao Rong sneered.

"Even after ascending to heaven and becoming a true immortal, he still often descends to the mortal world to hunt down monsters. My innocent young son was captured by him and locked in the Monster Locking Tower!"

"Humph, if that Ba Xia had not had a clear mind and no sins, I would have killed him with a single sword. How could he have stayed in the Demon Locking Tower?"

"It is you, the evil dragon, who today intends to destroy my lineage and bring disaster to the people. You should be killed."

The tension between the man and the dragon was so intense that Mu Yi was speechless.

Not only was he speechless towards the Dragon King, he was also speechless towards Taiwei.

If Ao Rong can still be considered a reasonable shrew, then Taiwei is a psychopath who believes in the supremacy of the human race.

One feels like a victim, the other feels like he is innocent.

"Sword, come! Today I will kill you, this evil dragon! I will report to the Heavenly Court and have you sent into the reincarnation cycle, where you will never be able to be reborn!"

A ferocious-looking sword sprang up from below and fell into Taiwei's hands.

"Humph, I have wielded this demon-suppressing sword and have killed countless demons. Today, I will make you the dead soul under this sword!"

"Just you? You'll get revenge for my son today!"

Ao Rong immediately revealed his true form, and the man and the dragon immediately started fighting fiercely above the sky.

Mu Yi was a little annoyed. The two men seemed to respect him on the surface, but in reality they had no respect for him at all and just started fighting among themselves.

After all, strength is the real right to speak. The strength of these two is basically at the level of gods. He is a high-level legend, not even a demigod, and can't get involved at all.

Mu Yi turned around and left, leaving the man and the dragon to fight in the sky.

He didn't care about the fighting, but as long as these two people affected the people below, he would immediately send people to hold these two guys down.

Mu Yi found Jing Wei and asked directly.

"Has the Demon Locking Tower been opened?"

"Reporting to the gods, the ancestor has summoned the sword to suppress demons. If we open the Demon Locking Tower now, I'm afraid the demons inside will riot. I hope the gods will see through this."

"Open it. I'm here. What are you afraid of?"

Mu Yi forcefully asked Jing Wei to open the Demon Locking Tower.

Jing Wei hesitated for a while, but still opened the Demon Locking Tower according to Mu Yi's instructions and let Mu Yi go in.

In his opinion, since the ancestor has come to the world, most problems are no longer problems.

After Mu Yi entered the Demon Locking Tower, he found that there were demons everywhere in the tower.

"Human? Is it a human?" "Eat him, eat him!"

"The Demon-Suppressing Sword is not here, eat it!"

Most of the demons were locked up in cells, but for some reason, all of them looked listless, as if they had been tortured for a long time.

Mu Yi was too lazy to get too entangled with these monsters, so he directly released his Dharma image to crush them all the way and climbed towards the top of the tower. According to Jingwei, those divine beasts that had not committed any sins were basically locked up in the middle layer.

However, after Mu Yi climbed all the way to the top and crushed a large number of monsters that had come out for unknown reasons and dared to attack him, he discovered that the monsters in the Monster Locking Tower did not seem to be divided according to good and evil, but according to their strength.

The closer you are to the top of the tower, the more demons are imprisoned.

Mu Yi narrowed his eyes. This was not a normal phenomenon. Thinking of the Demon-Slaying Sword that was summoned away by Taiwei, he became suspicious.

As soon as he stepped into the middle level, Mu Yi clearly felt something different from before.

The atmosphere on this level is far less turbid than the lower levels. Instead, it has a more neutral and peaceful feel.

After walking past several cells, Mu Yi stopped in front of a cell where a giant bird with fiery red feathers was lying.

Just standing in front of the cell door, he felt a sense of being burned by fire. Looking over, he felt that the air was distorted somewhere and the entire cell was filled with a scorching breath.

But the aura was peaceful, without any sense of ferocity, but like the lower levels, the aura was sluggish.

"Are you a descendant of the Phoenix bloodline?" Mu Yi asked.

"I'm not, I'm of the Vermillion Bird bloodline, and the Phoenix is ​​locked up in front!" The giant bird spoke rather irritably.

"Are you here to take him to the top of the tower?"

"no!"

After hearing the answer, the giant bird opened its eyes.

After opening his eyes and seeing that it was Mu Yi, he became more alert.

"You don't look like one of those Shushan Sect's arrogant guards. So, are you here to get the phoenix blood?"

From the sound of the voice, there seemed to be a sense of gloating.

"I'm here to get the white tiger's blood, but I can let you out!" Mu Yi honestly stated his purpose.

"Hehe, can those big-name guys from the Shushan Sect let us out? I've been locked up here for thirty years!" The giant bird with the blood of the Vermillion Bird said this, and became visibly irritated.

The movement of the giant bird attracted the divine beasts and monsters in other cells to open their eyes and look over here.

"Can I ask why you all look so weak?"

Mu Yi pondered and asked the question that was in his mind.

"Why do you even need to ask? Of course, the Demon-Suppressing Sword drained our strength. Why do you think that old man Taiwei locked us up here?"

"It's all for the purpose of refining his sword to subdue demons. He has already ascended to become an immortal, why does he need to come down to earth?" He answered Mu Yi's questions with angry roars.

All the divine beasts and demonic beasts on the entire floor rioted. When Taiwei was mentioned, all the beasts could not suppress their huge resentment.

"I understand!"

Mu Yi closed his eyes and finally understood what was going on with his previous feeling of discomfiture.

He had always wondered why a demon-locking tower was built. It would be fine to imprison these mythical beasts, but why did they have to imprison the vicious monsters as well? Wouldn't it be easier to just kill them directly?

And at this moment, all his doubts were answered.

Taiwei established the Shushan School and the Demon Locking Tower for no other purpose than to refine his Demon-Slaying Sword.

No wonder Taiwei went down to the mortal world many times to subdue demons, but was only imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower.

It is no wonder that there is no one in charge of the Demon Locking Tower. After all, all their strength has been drained by the Demon-Suppressing Sword, so how could they have the energy to rebel?

As for ranking by strength, that is even simpler. The closer you are to the Demon-Slaying Sword, the greater the impact you will naturally receive.

The monsters and mythical beasts on the top of the tower must have been drained long ago.

That's why the giant bird with the bloodline of Suzaku asked whether or not to take it to the top of the tower.

Mu Yi took a deep breath and started moving towards the top of the tower. As he expected, the number of prisoners decreased the higher he went.

There is only one divine beast imprisoned on the top floor of the tower, and it is now dying.

It seemed that because the Demon-Suppressing Sword was taken away, they got a chance to breathe.

"Are you here to kill me?"

The head is like a dragon, the shape is like a horse, the shape is like a deer, the tail is like an ox tail, there are colorful hair patterns on the back, and there are yellow hairs on the abdomen.

It turned out to be a Qilin. Judging from its aura, it was definitely an auspicious beast.

Mu Yi had fully understood the effect of the Demon Locking Tower and sneered twice.

To be honest, he almost believed Taiwei's words.

However, everything should not be judged by what is said, but by what is done.

Killing demons and eliminating evil is probably just a slogan that the founder shouted casually, with the purpose of making the Shushan Sect go on the journey of killing demons and never return.

No wonder they only kill and capture monsters, and let those evil cultivators hide.

It turned out that the founder of Mount Shu didn't care about eliminating demons and defending the way of righteousness at all, he only cared about how to nurture his own magic sword.

If he wanted to catch so many monsters and mythical beasts in Kyushu, he would basically be dreaming.

Mu Yi would be warned by the sacred beast White Tiger just for the sake of calculation. If the sacred beast White Tiger knew that someone captured his descendants to refine swords, it would probably skin them alive.

However, this Demon Locking Tower was built after Taiwei ascended to heaven. I don’t know where Taiwei learned this from.

But no matter what, the matter is now clear.

Taiwei's crime was so serious that it had reached the point where he had to be dealt with. Instead, the disciples of the Shushan Sect became secondary.

Mu Yi directly took out the True Spiritual Position Map and reported what Taiwei had done to the True God of Thunder.

As a fifth-rank god in heaven, he naturally has the power to report to the Ministry of Thunder.

Just a moment later, the whole world seemed to darken, and then a loud thunder exploded in the sky, and countless lightning danced wildly in the sky.

"Taiwei!" The sound of thunder rolled and spread in all directions.

"You have violated the rules of heaven by interfering with the development of the lower world out of your own selfish desires. Why don't you surrender immediately? Come back to heaven with me for trial!"

Taiwei, who was originally fighting with Ao Rong, had a pale face. He didn't know why the God of Thunder came to capture him, but he realized in just a moment that he was going to be in trouble. For violating the rules of heaven, the lightest punishment would be the removal of his immortal bones and sending him into reincarnation.

Taiwei instinctively wanted to run.

But a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and Taiwei was instantly imprisoned by the lightning. Then he turned into a flash of lightning and disappeared into the sky.

Mu Yi silently bowed to the God of Thunder in the sky, then turned around silently and began to clean up the mess.
