God rewards those who work hard: Awakening Daily Practice Settlement

About ten miles west of Lijia Village, you can see a temple.

This temple is the incense temple.

I don’t know in which dynasty it was built, but it has suddenly become popular in Lijia Village in the past decade.

After that, everyone here became believers of Xiang Niangniang.

If this Lady Xiang wasn't a big trick, Pei Daoye would be eating green onions while standing upside down!
"So this ghost place has become the territory of the Great Ghost. At the end of the month, the villagers here will go to the incense temple... Maybe even before the end of the month, the nearby villagers will find out that the mother and son are dead. By then... I will be exposed."

"But should we run away?"

Don’t run... This is Empress Xiang’s territory, this is a big trick.

Whether he can win...is unknown.

Run... I don’t know how many strange creatures there are in the outside world, and I don’t know whether there are any monk organizations.

Pei Daoye was not in a hurry.

He was just thinking.

With Zhuo Wushuang's achievements...there will definitely be a bright future ahead.

But when exactly did this situation occur?

Strictly speaking, Zhuo Wushuang certainly didn't have such means back then. So in the situation yesterday, Zhuo Wushuang would definitely not be able to resist. So what happened next?

"It seems that there must be something hidden in this little home that I don't know about."

Pei Daoye glanced around.

Bring dry food with you.

As for the fairy oil...

In fact, it is corpse oil refined from humans, but no one knows what is added to it, which makes it very helpful for refining Yin corpses.

The ghost baby also wished it could break through the void and eat this immortal oil.

Dark clouds covered the land.

The wind was cold.

Pei Daoye quietly perceived every detail of this small mountain village.

There are very few people living here.

Including Aunt Sun’s family, there are only eleven families.

Most of the doors and windows were closed and no one appeared. But when Pei Daoye approached, the door where the village chief was suddenly opened, revealing the numb face of a young man.

The other party seemed to have sensed something. Two eyes whose black pupils seemed invisible stared at the direction where Pei Daoye was, and his nose twitched a few times.

But he didn't find anything unusual.

"Any questions?"

An elderly voice came from behind me, probably the village chief.

“No problem found.”

The young man closed the door and continued, "Dad, is the news confirmed? Do we really have to offer the tribute a few days in advance this time?"

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. The outsiders have already set their sights on us. If we don't hurry up and contact the queen... our situation will be very unsafe." The elderly village chief spoke slowly.

The young man frowned: "What happened?"

"Don't ask about things that are not your business..."

The father and son continued to talk.

Pei Daoye retreated carefully.

He didn't expect that the young man just now could actually sense his presence. If he hadn't been standing still at the time, he would have been discovered sooner or later.

"This is just a small subordinate of Madam Xiang."

Pei Daoye was secretly on guard.

Suddenly he noticed smoke rising in the distance, which looked particularly bright in the cloudy sky.

Pei Daoye's mind moved and he quickly approached.

The energy released by the mist made him feel extraordinary.

If the timing is right, perhaps we can take away the treasure before these people set out!
……

Pei Daoye has never been a person who looks ahead and behind.

After making up his mind, he rushed forward quickly.

And behind the door.

The father and son stared blankly at the haze in the distance, and then the young man seemed to react, his face full of horror:

"Dad, they are coming! They are coming!"

"Quick, go to the temple!!! Please ask the goddess!"

……

The closer Pei Daoye got to the mist, the more comfortable he felt all over, just like a person who had been through severe cold for a long time and now felt the warmth of fire close to his body.

The mist comes from a pond.

As if it was boiling, countless stones that were more translucent than red corals kept surging out.

The pool was full of red, and amid the shimmering waves, a great deal of energy surged forth...

Pei Daoye confirmed that there was no one around.

Instead of rushing over, he made a hand gesture and used the spirit gathering array as a medium to continuously absorb the energy released by the pool into his body.

However, this energy was extremely overbearing. After rushing into the body, it was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. It did not care about Pei Daoye's "body" at all, as if it would not mind even if it crashed and exploded all his meridians.

only--

Hunyuan Jin and Zhizun Jin were like two bandits who had made a temporary alliance. When they joined forces to suppress the enemy, this violent energy was refined without even having a chance to resist.

A siphon is formed in an instant.

Pei Daoye absorbed this energy like a whale.

Even the fiery red color of the pool seemed to fade a little.

……

And just below this pool, there is a channel that is being formed, but because the energy is being absorbed at an extremely fast speed, the channel has been slow to form.

Another space within the passage.

Two mysterious men in black robes looked at each other.

"what happened?"

"Something seems to be absorbing energy on the other side..."

"Then increase the intensity!"

"Hold him to death!"

……

Half an hour later.

Beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of both men.

"Why can the other party continue to absorb it?"

"It's a ghost! There must be a big ghost on the opposite side! It can suppress the energy of the two of us, it must be at least at the level of Rakshasa... But it's not the same as the big ghost before."

"Go and inform them immediately!"

……

The roaring flames were extinguished in an instant.

It's a pity for Pei Daoye.

He was still hoping to absorb more energy, but it was over now.

However, this body has received a large amount of energy nourishment, and the improvement effect is extremely obvious.

I heard footsteps coming from outside the forest.

He realized that the people from the village had arrived and was about to retreat, but the next second, he suddenly sensed an extremely cold breath emerging.

It's a weird rhyme!
Where there is weirdness, there must be weird things!

So at this moment, a strange creature has appeared in this place.

Pei Daoye held his breath.

Suddenly, the space around seemed to condense into thick leaden clouds, and a huge body emerged from it. On a head that was even bigger than the body, hung an eyeball that could rotate 360 ​​degrees.

At this moment, after his eyes turned around, they completely fell on the whirlpool that suddenly appeared behind Pei Daoye.

"heresy."

The moment these two words were spoken.

A huge palm condensed in the vortex and suddenly rose up in silence.

Although the big-headed monster looks clumsy, its reaction speed is extremely fast. The void in front of it suddenly exploded, and the airflow formed was able to block the giant palm that was flying over.

...This sudden scene frightened the villagers, and they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, muttering something.

Pei Daoye seized the opportunity and retreated violently.

In fact, the big-headed monster and the black-robed man in the whirlpool had discovered him, but both sides thought that Pei Daoye was the other's man.

This is also the reason why the big-headed monster stared at Pei Daoye for a while when it saw Pei Daoye retreating.

But the black-robed man in the vortex obviously didn't give it enough time to think about anything.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle.

Pei Daoye seemed to have left, but he was actually secretly watching this battle.

He knew very little about the powerful people in this world.

Take this opportunity to take a peek.

The extremely cold aura spread all around, and even Pei Daoye felt a palpitation.

The big-headed monster may look simple, but it is at least in the late Nascent Soul stage.

The black robe man is more powerful...

Even without showing his real body, just showing half of his body in the whirlpool was enough to beat the big-headed monster back step by step.

But just when the dust was about to settle, suddenly this world seemed to be frozen, and Pei Daoye thought to himself that something was wrong.

When I looked up.

Densely packed red candles were already lit up in the battle space.

The moment the candlelight appears.

The whole world seemed to be in that person's hands.

Pei Daoye just glanced at the woman's back and his eyes felt like they were burning in fire. He hurriedly retreated again.

I seemed to faintly hear the roar of the man in black robe.

The world in front of me was retreating madly.

For the first time, Pei Daoye intuitively felt the true horror of the great monster.

There is absolutely no chance of resistance.

Perhaps because of the fairy oil remaining on his body, the other party did not do anything to him.

After retreating from the mountains.

Pei Daoye returned to his residence immediately and found a secret letter left by Zhuo Wushuang's father under the bed.

[…Go to Tiantuo Temple to find…the master! Bring the jade pendant with you. They will recognize it and take you in!]

Tiantuo Temple...

An additional memory appeared in Pei Daoye's mind.

That was what Zhuo's father had discussed with "him" in private... [Go northwest, it only takes two days to see the temple... Don't trust anyone, even those magicians, you must practice, that's how they can protect you! ]

[Dad will accompany you here, they have already set their sights on me...]

……

Pei Daoye found a jade pendant embedded in the floor of the bed.

I think Zhuo's father has already noticed that Aunt Sun and her gang have set their sights on him and his son, so he was worried that the jade pendant would be snatched away by that gang, so he hid it here.

"This jade pendant... is a magical weapon!"

Pei Daoye was a little surprised.

I finally understood that if the planned trajectory was followed, this would be the only one that could protect Zhuo Wushuang's life.

Two days...

That is Zhuo Wushuang's speed.

At his speed...it wouldn't take that long.

There was no further delay.

Pei Daoye stood up quickly.

Empress Xiang has arrived, and I'm afraid this place will be dug up deep soon.

The affair between Aunt Sun and her son will soon be exposed, and by then he will not be able to escape unscathed from Empress Xiang's "adventure".

So it is safe to choose to withdraw now!
……

Although he did not choose to fly there on a sword, this distance was not a difficult task for Pei Daoye.

Big trees grow towards the sky, and their shades seem to cover the sky, which makes the light inside the forest very dim.

Pei Daoye sensed the eerie charm hidden in these dark areas, and felt a little sad... Where did so many dirty things come from in this damn place?

But while others are fearful, he is... greedy!
The unorthodox methods are used to train people like you who are cunning!
The secret method of Jintan corpse-driving has itself been integrated into the left-handed way, and the method of making Jintan is not difficult.

Although there is no Yin corpse to refine, he can use the golden altar to absorb these strange rhymes, which can also enhance his evil ways in a sense!
A palm-sized golden jar quickly condensed from Pei Daoye's hand. As he threw it out, the golden jar grew rapidly.

It turned into a bloody mouth, absorbing the strange charm of the forest like a whale.

This forest is some distance away from the village.

Moreover, the feeling these strange rhymes gave him was not even as good as that of the big-headed monster. At most, they were similar to the small monster that invaded last night.

It is not difficult at all to swallow the strange aura released by these little ghosts.

Strong winds began to sweep through the forest.

Like ghosts howling.

The dim light and shadows were like monsters with bared fangs and claws, rushing towards Pei Daoye.

This scene happened to be witnessed by a young man who broke into the place as if fleeing for his life. He was pale and terrified, thinking that he had just escaped a disaster, but was about to die in the blink of an eye.

But suddenly he seemed to see something, and in his peripheral vision there flashed a sword light like a raging flame.

moment.

The ghostly shadows that were just showing their fangs and claws were torn into pieces by the sword light.

The boy was dumbfounded.

He stood up hurriedly: "Senior——"

But no matter how loudly he called, he could not see Pei Daoye.

……

Pei Daoye moved forward, and the strange aura condensed by the golden altar he activated became more and more. Even the ghost baby couldn't sit still and wished he could travel through time to this world and drink like crazy.

"Sir, I can guarantee that if I were allowed to come into this world... I would be able to grow to an unprecedented level."

Pei Daoye chuckled when he heard this: "That day will come. But there are many old monsters in this world, and you are not enough to fill their teeth now."

"With the master here, I'm not afraid."

"..."

Pei Daoye didn't intend to continue this topic, but suddenly the ghost baby asked: "Sir, why don't you refine this body you possessed into a Yin corpse?"

When Pei Daoye heard this, he thought it was a genius idea.

But let’s go to Tiantuo Temple first.

Refining the Yin Corpse requires some preparation, and it will definitely be discovered by the magicians of Tiantuo Temple...then the losses will be too great.

Wait until you enter Tiantuo Temple before making a decision.

……

It was a small temple made up of several rooms stacked on top of each other.

The situation was very different from what Pei Daoye had imagined.

He looked at the vermilion temple gate, but did not go in immediately because he sensed a strange aura that was even stronger than that of the big-headed monster.

Damn, there is something fishy going on in this Tiantuo Temple!
Instead of entering through the main gate, Pei Daoye secretly "investigated" around Tiantuo Temple.

Only three of the six rooms had the aura of cultivators, and they all seemed to be in seclusion, without any fluctuations. If it weren't for his extraordinary perception, he would not have been able to sense that there were "living people" in these three rooms.

However, there is a sense of weirdness everywhere, making it impossible to determine where the real weirdness lies.

It can't be... all trickery.

Just as Pei Daoye was silently using the golden altar to absorb the strange aura emanating from outside the Tiantuo Temple, he unexpectedly looked at a young man staggering in at the entrance of the Tiantuo Temple.

"Mage, save me - Mage, save me -"

The boy rushed into the first room on the left, lifted the felt cloth, and knelt down immediately.

Pei Daoye caught a glimpse of her.

Countless blood-red arms wrapped around the boy's face and body, and instantly dragged him into the room. There was a faint sound of flesh being ground.

Pei Daoye silently withdrew his gaze.

That leaves the last two rooms.

"Then let's do something big!" (End of this chapter)
