Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Dao Zun? !
Whether it was Xu Qian'an, Jinlian, Chu Yuanzhen, or Lina, who ignored Gong Yangsu's reminder and ran back to rub A Bao's belly, they were all stunned by his words.

The emperor buried in this ancient tomb is actually the Daoist Master? The great genius Daoist Master who created the cultivation system for the human race and opened a new chapter for mankind? !
"What? He is Dao Zun?"

Two figures rose from the high platform, one was a mourning girl, and the other was a beautiful woman holding a white fox.

"Zhong Li? Fu Xiang? You guys are here too?"

Of course Xu Qian'an recognized them both.

Chu Pingsheng landed in front of the mummy. The four fourth-rank upper-armored soldiers knew that he was not easy to deal with, so they surrounded him.

"The body is the Dao Master's body, and the soul... is just a remnant soul that has been nourished by the earth's energy for hundreds of years, awakening its spiritual perception and giving birth to wisdom."

After he explained the state of the mummy, he held out his hand: "Give it to me."

"what would you like?"

"Imperial jade seal."

The mummy was furious: "How dare you, a villain, touch the master's things?!"

"A scoundrel? The Dao Zun's achievement is only to drive out the descendants of gods and demons and establish the human religion. Speaking of which, I also reincarnated to make up for my sins." Chu Pingsheng said calmly: "Since you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself."

He walked forward, and the mummy's shriveled hands released a yin energy that was enough to corrupt the soul of a fourth-grade strong man in seconds, which enveloped him and quickly spread to the surroundings. Taoist Jinlian hurriedly pulled Chu Yuanzhen back. He could not resist the yin energy accumulated in the sword of the mummy warrior, let alone the yin energy released by the third-grade mummy.

The Yin Qi spread over half of the platform and then stopped moving, shrinking at an extremely fast speed. However, what surprised everyone was that the object that absorbed the Yin Qi was not the mummy, but the monk.

The red light in the mummy's terrifying eye sockets was noticeably slow, as if it couldn't accept the reality that the negative energy and evil spirits it had absorbed for hundreds of years not only did not cause any harm to the monk, but were instead absorbed by him.

Chu Pingsheng took the opportunity to grab it, and the imperial robe, which had become very loose due to the shrinkage of the corpse, moved, and a white seal carved with a five-clawed dragon fell into his hand.

The mummy suddenly came to his senses, roared, and punched him in the heart, and the weapons of the four soldiers around him also fell on his head.

Chu Pingsheng did not dodge or evade, allowing the mummy's fists to hit his chest and the soldiers' weapons to chop his body.

boom……

A powerful shock wave swept across the left and right, and Jinlian and Chu Yuanzhen were forced back to the edge of the platform. You Ji grabbed Xu Qian'an and jumped to the vault of the tomb. Looking down from above, they saw that the mummified corpse of Daozun and the four soldiers seemed to be sucked in.

At this time, Xu Qian'an discovered a detail. Many black spots as small as ants were crawling along the arms of the Taoist mummy and the weapons of the warrior mummy towards their bodies.

Lina poked her head out and noticed the scene in front of her. Her mouth opened wide in surprise.

"Is this... a corpse insect?"

"Hehe..."

The Taoist mummy would naturally not sit and wait for death. He let out a roar, and an incomplete soul emerged from his head.

He was just a remnant soul left in the body by the Taoist Master, which was far inferior to the souls of Qing Ji, Ye Ji and You Ji. Even after hundreds of years of nourishment by the dragon veins and earth energy, he could not be compared with the Taoist Master of those days. However, at this moment, seeing those little bugs eroding his control over his body, he could not stop them no matter how he resisted. He could only let his soul leave his body and cast spells to fight.

But before he could gather all the mummified souls in the ancient tomb to besiege the bald man in front of him, an illusory black chain shot out from the bald man's body, wrapped around his body, locked his neck, and pulled him away from his shriveled body.

"Do not……"

A low roar with the majesty of a supreme ruler resounded throughout the main tomb chamber, but it had no effect. It couldn't even delay the pull of the chains, and was "swallowed" by Chu Pingsheng.

Anyone who saw this scene could not help but feel their scalp tingling.

The evil spirits born from the third-grade mummy and the remains of the Taoist master couldn't even put up a decent resistance in his hands and were completely restrained.

Chu Pingsheng pushed away the arm of the soulless Taoist mummy and walked out of the encirclement. Ah Bao ran to his feet and licked them, not looking like a demon king at all. Seeing this, You Ji, who was carrying Xu Qian'an to the ground, didn't know what to say. That was the bear king who had scared her so much that she dared not even breathe...

Lina pouted, very unhappy with Po's attitude towards her. She had just rubbed its sore belly for nothing.

Taoist Jinlian was sure that the mummy would not move again, so he walked over to him and thanked him: "Thank you for your help, Master."

Chu Yuanzhen said: "I never thought that the master could find an ancient tomb."

Chu Pingsheng pointed at the white fox in Ye Ji's arms and said, "It has a very sensitive nose. It came here just by smelling A Bao's scent."

"Choo Choo Choo……"

"Choo Choo Choo……"

Qingji protested angrily.

She was the elder of the demon clan, a fourth-rank demon. Look at what he said. What did he think of her? A dog?
"Okay, the mummy has woken up and activated the formation of the ancient tomb. Let's go out first."

Chu Pingsheng walked to the front of the four mummies and waved his sleeves. The remains of the Taoist Master and its four younger brothers disappeared.

"You...you also have..."

Xu Qian'an's expression looked a little unnatural. It was the first time he saw a monk put away an object of this size with ease.

Chu Pingsheng was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he told Jinlian and the others to follow him and walked towards the main gate on the platform. Lina stuck out her tongue at him and made a face as she followed Gong Yangsu and other Hou Tu gang members out of the main tomb chamber.

……

On the official road from Xiangcheng to the capital.

The climate is mild and the sunshine is just right.

After coming out of the ancient tomb, the members of the Hou Tu Gang said goodbye to Xu Qian'an, Lina and others and returned to the headquarters. Although they did not get any treasures from the ancient tomb this time and several gang members died, it cannot be said that they had gained nothing. Whether the dual cultivation method on the mural is useful or not can only be known after trying it.

In Xu Qian'an's opinion... the reason why that group of people were in a hurry to break up and go home was probably because they wanted to have fun with their wives.

Taoist Jinlian looked at Youji, once, then again, and continued to look until Youji felt uncomfortable all over and hid behind Yeji.

This younger sister was not as gentle as her. Her pretty face turned cold and she shot a warning look.

Taoist Jinlian smiled awkwardly and turned away.

Chu Yuanzhen found this scene a little funny: "Master, is there anything wrong with Miss Youji?"

"Neither human nor demon, strange, her aura is very strange."

"Neither human nor monster? Could it be... a ghost?" Lina interrupted.

Taoist Jinlian rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.

Xu Qian'an said, "Hey, you guys are talking about a third-rank master behind his back like this, aren't you afraid of angering him and making him smack you to death as soon as his tail lights up?"

Taoist Jinlian looked embarrassed.

In the small organization of Tiandi Society, he always acted like a master, but ever since he was targeted by the monk, the two battles he was involved in, whether it was the Qinglong Temple or the ancient tomb, made him feel deeply powerless.

Chu Pingsheng didn't pay attention to the conversation of the people in front of him. He glanced at You Ji who was asking Ye Ji about the situation of the Bear King, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he was smiling.

He gave Youji an independent choice, but she said that he had a high level of cultivation, so the enemies he would encounter would definitely be strong. Yeji and Qingji had relatively poor cultivation levels, so they would be a drag and would be in danger. As an older sister, she had to stay and take care of them both, and if necessary, she could help him fight against the strong men of Dafeng as a way of repaying his kindness.

In fact, he was just looking for an excuse not to return to southern Xinjiang.

"Why did you take those mummies into your possession?" Zhong Li asked while sitting on A Bao's back.

She was not surprised that the monk had a space magic weapon to store the mummies, but she just didn't understand why he did that.

Chu Pingsheng was about to speak when the little barbarian girl, who was walking angrily and unhappy with A Bao's attitude towards her, spoke first: "It's very simple. He wants to turn those mummies into corpse puppets."

"Corpse puppet?" Zhong Li looked at Chu Pingsheng and asked, "Is that so?"

"I guess so. Besides... I need the old corpse's nails and corpse fluid."

Zhong Li thought of the things that the monk gave to Yang Qianhuan before they left the capital, such as the silk of the Nether Silkworm, the fingernails of the dried corpse, and the corpse fluid. What was he trying to do by collecting these strange things?

Lina curled her lips and said, "I really didn't expect that the bald donkey from the Tianyu who always thinks highly of himself and usually uses the term 'unorthodox' to describe Gu techniques would also secretly learn the Gu techniques of our Gu tribe."

Chu Pingsheng smiled slightly and did not respond to her.

She became even angrier and sneered, "Miss from the Imperial Observatory, I advise you to stay away from him."

Zhong Li was puzzled: "Why?"

Lina said, "The corpse Gu of our Gu tribe is different from the corpse control technique of the Wushen Cult. A wizard can only control a corpse temporarily, but a corpse controlled by our Gu tribe can continue to control the corpse to fight as long as the Gu master's natal Gu is still there. Therefore, the Corpse Gu Department has always been the main fighting force of the Gu tribe. After all, a Gu master can control several corpse puppets that grow together with his own cultivation. However, those guys have a perverted interest, and you definitely don't want to know."

Zhong Li was silent for a moment and then said, "What interest?"

"Necrophilia."

"Necrophilia?!"

"That's why I asked you to stay away from him." Lina was very proud: "Heaven Gu, Power Gu, Love Gu, Dark Gu, Poison Gu... There are so many kinds of Gu to choose from, but you chose Corpse Gu."

Zhong Li tilted his head to look at Chu Pingsheng, but saw the monk smiling faintly without making any explanation, as if he didn't take the words of the little girl from the Gu tribe to heart at all.

Corpse Gu...

She believed that Lina had not lied to her, but the question was, would his corpse Gu be the same as the ones cultivated by the Gu tribe? The answer was obvious.

Zhong Li took off the water bag hanging on A Bao, unsealed the lid, took a sip, and handed it to Chu Pingsheng: "Drink some water."

"it is good."

He took the water bag and took a sip.

Lina stamped her feet and turned her head quickly: "Humph! A sloppy woman and a necrophiliac, you two are really a match made in heaven."

Zhong Li blinked her eyes which were hidden by her bangs, not understanding how she had provoked her. Wasn’t she just being kind by handing the water bag to the monk?

Chu Pingsheng closed the lid of the water bag.

"Here, there's this."

Zhong Li hung the water bag back, looked back, and saw him throwing a square object. She quickly took it in her hand and looked at it carefully.

"What's this?"

"This is the imperial seal of the Daliang Kingdom."

"Daliang? The dynasty established by the human race after Daozun drove away the descendants of gods and demons?"

"That's right. The jade seal contains part of Daliang's luck. With this, even if you are not by my side in the future, the punishment from heaven will not be able to harm you."

"It's such an important thing, I...can't..." "Just keep it if I tell you to. There's no need to make such a fuss."

Chu Pingsheng sped up his horse and sped away.

Taoist Jinlian and Chu Yuanzhen both heard his conversation with Zhong Li, the latter frowned, as if thinking about something.

"Master, this..."

"..." Jinlian was silent for a moment and said, "I don't think anyone would dare to snatch the treasure that the female disciple of the Sitianjian carries with her, right?"

Xu Qian'an was a little confused: "Master Jinlian, are the antiques of Daliang Kingdom very valuable? Can the imperial seal of the previous dynasty be used to command the officials of Dafeng?"

Taoist Jinlian said: "The jade seal of Daliang cannot be used to command the officials of Dafeng, but it contains a part of the luck of the previous dynasty. You should know that high-level Taoists and sorcerers need to use luck to break through. The reason why the Taoist leader of Dizong collects jade mirrors everywhere is because of them..."

He paused here, and then said, "From the attitude of the third-rank mummy towards it, we can see that the luck in the jade seal can at least create a second-rank master."

"The jade seal of Daliang Kingdom can make one a second-rank official? He gave it to Zhong Li?" Xu Qian'an was a little unhappy. Among these people, Fuxiang was a monk's private prostitute. It would be reasonable to give such a valuable thing to his "brother-in-law" instead of Fuxiang. But in the end, he gave it to the people of Sitianjian as a big gift.

Good things are flowing into other people's fields.

Elbows turned outward...

Taoist Jinlian seemed to know what he was thinking: "You are a warrior, so having luck is icing on the cake. Without luck, as long as you have a good comprehension and are not too unlucky, you will surely be promoted to the extraordinary level in time."

"Master, you flatter me." Xu Qian'an said, "Tell me, do you want to take my car to please the master of consecration? Ask him to make you a treasure similar to the jade seal?"

Taoist Jinlian: “…”

"Why did he stop?"

The two men were awakened by Chu Yuanzhen's words. They looked forward and saw that the monk who was leading the way stopped and followed the two young men riding donkeys heading south.

"Have you heard? The emperor is going to take a concubine."

"Take a concubine? Are you mistaken? The emperor has not taken a concubine for so many years. I heard that he is devoted to practicing Taoism and striving for immortality. Indulging in pornography and being obsessed with sex is not the way to practice."

"What do you know? The emperor wants to marry a fairy concubine. Do you know that the fairy concubine can help with cultivation through dual cultivation? Not only will it not be harmful, but it will be beneficial."

"do not know."

"That's the National Master, the head of the Human Sect, a powerful second-rank Taoist."

"Huh? Really?"

"How could it be false? I got this news from the Ministry of Rites. The emperor has informed the newly appointed Minister of Rites and asked him to handle this matter properly. It should not be disrespectful, but also take into account the views of Lingbao Temple. It should not be too grand."

"Lingbao Temple wants to keep everything simple? Speaking of this... I seemed to have heard some time ago... that the female imperial teacher seemed to have an ambiguous relationship with the extraordinary monk from the Heavenly Realm. No way, in order to cultivate Taoism and achieve immortality, the emperor would... lose all his dignity?"

"Shh, shh, stop talking. Fortunately, this is Yongzhou, which is quite far from the capital. If it were in the city, you might get your head chopped off for what you just said."

The young man on the horse met the gaze of Jinlian and others, and dared not say anything more. They all fell silent and urged their horses to gallop.

Now Jinlian and the others knew why the monk stopped his horses, and their faces turned grim.

"Chu Zhuangyuan, don't you know about this?"

"This happened before we left Beijing, how could Master Uncle...?!"

Chu Yuanzhen thought for a moment and said, "I guess Master's condition must have worsened."

"After the battle at Qinglong Temple, Junior Sister's Karma Fire wasn't..."

The Earth Sect and the Human Sect both belong to the Taoist sect. Jinlian calls Luo Yuheng "Junior Sister". He was about to ask Chu Yuanzhen for details when the small jade mirror in his arms began to vibrate.

Chu Yuanzhen, Lina and Jinlian reached out at the same time, and Xu Qian'an followed their example, but dropped his hand halfway in disappointment, and just moved closer to Taoist Jinlian and eavesdropped.

"Hey, Taoist Jinlian, how is No. 5? Did you rescue him?"

This voice... is number two Li Miaozhen!
Before the Taoist Jinlian could speak, Lina said, "Why do I need them to save me? No one is tying me up at all."

Li Miaozhen: "Then why did you suddenly disappear?"

Lina: "I'm...going on an adventure."

Taoist Jinlian, Xu Qian'an, and Chu Yuanzhen all looked a little gloomy. Tomb robbing is tomb robbing, and it's also exploration? She is really shameless. She was obviously cheated of all her money and had no money to travel, so she had to follow the Houtu Gang and do such a low-level tomb robbing business.

Of course, they did not choose to expose the little girl from the Gu tribe.

Li Miaozhen: "In that case, I won't go to Xiangcheng."

Taoist Jinlian: "Okay."

Li Miaozhen: "I'll go directly to the capital."

Taoist Jinlian: “!”

Chu Yuanzhen: “!”

At this time, No. 1 joined their group chat: "No. 2, what are you doing in Beijing?"

Li Miaozhen: "If you promise to help me, I will tell you."

Number One seemed to know that it was not easy to help, so he just stopped talking.

Li Miaozhen: "You cowardly fellow, okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll tell you when I get to the capital."

The small jade mirror stopped vibrating.

Taoist Jinlian, Chu Yuanzhen, Xu Qian'an and Lina looked at each other, speechless.

All in all, except for No. 7 and No. 8 who have never "appeared", all the members of Tiandi Society will appear in the capital.

Da da……

Da da……

Da da……

Rhythmic sound of horse hooves came from the side, and even You Ji, who was at the back, surpassed the four of them.

……

a few days later.

Dafeng Capital.

Xu family’s new house.

creak...

The door was pushed open from the outside.

"Uncle, Aunt, I'm back."

Xu Qian'an called out, but there was no movement in the main hall. Li Ru, with a blanket draped over her shoulders, was still in a daze. Xu Lingyue, who was lying on the wooden bed in the west wing, turned over and continued to take a nap. Only the lazy Xu Lingyin rubbed her sleepy eyes and got out of bed. She pushed open the door of the west wing and saw him standing in the yard empty-handed. She said in a baby voice, "Brother, you promised before you left that you would bring Lingyin the most delicious small flower cakes in Yunzhou."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qian'an's heart skipped a beat and his face looked a little unhappy, because he had completely forgotten about promising Xu Lingyin to bring Xiao Hua Su.

"This... Lingyin..."

"Yunzhou's Little Flower Pastry? Are you referring to this?"

With the sound of footsteps at the door, Chu Pingsheng, You Ji and Ye Ji walked into the door with the threshold removed. He was holding a bamboo food box in his hand. He opened the lid and saw three oil paper bags with lotus-shaped pastries sprinkled with black sesame seeds in the middle.

Xu Qian'an's eyes widened: "Master, why do you have this in your hand?"

Chu Pingsheng certainly couldn't tell him that the Xu family had been under his surveillance. He smiled and said, "I happened to pass by Yunzhou this time when I was out. I saw people on the street lining up to buy this. It looked delicious, so I asked Fuxiang to buy some and prepare..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a bang, as if someone had bumped into something. Then the door of the main room opened, and Li Ru, with a painful look on her face, and Xu Lingyue, who was sleeping with disheveled hair, appeared in the yard almost at the same time.

"Brother/Master...you're back?"

"Yes, I happened to meet Ning Yan when I came here, so we returned to Beijing together."

After robbing the delicatessen as usual, Abao returned with a full load. He raised his head, mooed twice, and waved the sausages in his hand to greet Xu Lingyin.

"Don't stand in the yard anymore, come inside."

Li Ru quickly led everyone to the living room, and turned around to see You Ji, who was only two or three years younger than Ye Ji but much better than her in both figure and appearance, standing behind her. Her heart skipped a beat and she became extremely jealous.

"This sister is..."

Chu Pingsheng said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce her to you. She is Ye Ji's sister You Ji. Isn't Fu Xiang's soul trapped in Ye Ji's body and unable to transfer back to her original body? This time when I went south, I took the time to visit the Shiwan Mountains. You Ji is the fox demon I invited to solve this problem."

Youji: “…”

Ye Ji: “…”

Qingji: “Chiu…”

This guy can lie without hesitation. He is a habitual cheater on women.

Li Ru looked at You Ji warily a few more times, signaled to Xu Lingyue to close the door, and led a few people into the front hall.

You have to know that the monk who performed the consecration ceremony is no longer the same as before. The old lady with missing teeth at the street corner could tell eight paragraphs of gossip about him and the two princesses in one breath.

……

After a stick of incense.

Li Ru ordered Xu Lingyue to take You Ji to the backyard to choose a room, and asked Xu Qian'an to take Little Foodie to the Imperial Sword Guard Yamen to inform Xu Pingzhi, and by the way, go to Guiyue Tower to get a pot of good wine and buy some hard dishes, so as to welcome the master of consecration and celebrate properly.

Although Xu Qian'an didn't understand why she did this, he still went there obediently.

Over there, Xu Lingyue went out from the back door and Xu Qian'an went out from the front door. Chu Pingsheng saw that he and Li Ru were the only ones left in the front hall, so he was ready to get up and leave. Unexpectedly, this woman had no manners at all. She closed the back door and the front door, and stood in front of him with a cold face. Her eyes were as sharp as a poisoned dagger.

"Everyone has left. Come on, tell me."

Sure enough, she sent the person away on purpose. (End of this chapter)
