Chapter 336: The Ancient God King! The Resurrected Evil God!
An unknown ancient god.

His rank is even higher than Liu Zun.

The divine weapons under his command should be magical objects from ancient gods.

But this thing is actually a creation of this world?

"This thing has a spirit, and has indeed reached the level of a divine object."

Lin Yan frowned and said, "Looking at his every word and action, he looks down on all living beings and despises the contemporary gods..."

"The casting pattern and the direction of the lines on the inside of this jar are from the Beishan Holy Land back then."

Lord Zhuo Ling paused and said, "There used to be three holy places to the north of Taixuan Mountain Range. Now it seems that they have all been completely lost to the strange night! Among them, the Beishan Holy Land is one that I have dealt with before. The ancient divine bow was given to them..."

Then I heard Lord Zhuo Ling explain in detail.

The area north of the Taixuan Mountains was quite prosperous in those days.

The land south of the Taixuan Mountains, which is where Lin Yan is standing at the moment, is still a barren land.

The "Weapon Refining Pavilion" in the Beishan Holy Land has profound attainments. One of the weapon refining masters discovered a weapon refining direction in ancient times that used formations, runes, and engraved inscriptions on objects.

But not every kind of formation rune is suitable for refining artifacts.

This involves the formation itself, the basis of the runes, the material of the object itself, the corresponding five elements of life and death, and the use of magical instruments and so on.

Later, after two generations, twelve kinds of formations and runes that could be used to refine artifacts were listed.

By the fifth generation, there was an elder who, based on the similarities between the twelve patterns, created a completely new type of refining pattern!

This is a new method that is derived from the ancient method!
And at this moment, the inside of this black jar is engraved with the new patterns of the Weapon Refining Pavilion in the Beishan Holy Land!
"So, he is not a true ancient god?"

Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly as he asked.

"It's not surprising that it's a replica of a weapon made in later times. After all, the divine bow behind you was also a replica made in later times."

Lord Zhuo Ling frowned and said, "But I clearly remember that this thing was destroyed more than 4,000 years ago... and the Beishan Holy Land Refining Pavilion created the 'New Method of Array Talisman Patterns' for refining more than 3,800 years ago."

Lin Yan understood what Lord Zhuo Ling meant.

This so-called great evil artifact had long been destroyed. How could it be possible to imitate it after hundreds or thousands of years?
Moreover, a spirituality was born in this evil treasure jar, and among the "divine objects", its grade must be extremely high.

At least it is far better than the magic bow behind Lin Yan at this moment.

“That doesn’t make sense…”

Even Lord Zhuo Ling seemed extremely confused at this moment. He whispered twice and said, "Even if the Great Evil Artifact was not destroyed, how could it be possible to copy the 'artifact spirit' inside it? Since the advent of Weird Night, later generations have occasionally refined treasures that have reached the 'divine object' level, but at least before my time, there has never been an example of a divine object refined by later generations that has given birth to 'spiritual intelligence'!"

“It’s not possible in this day and age.”

Lin Lei spoke hesitantly.

In the past, he was fond of strange and ingenious things, mechanical secretaries, wooden puppets, etc., so he had a great interest in refining and making tools.

During his time in the capital city, he often read relevant books and sought advice from the holy land elders of the Equipment Refining Hall many times.

Today, his attainments in refining equipment are still extremely superficial, but he has learned a lot of knowledge related to refining equipment.

He looked at Lord Zhuo Ling beside him, then at Lin Yan, and whispered, "In the holy land's books, there is a relatively detailed introduction to the ancient divine objects."

“A divine artifact that has been born with full spiritual intelligence is an extremely extraordinary divine object even in the era of the ancient gods. It is more precious than ordinary divine objects!”

Following Lin Lei's words, Lord Zhuo Ling also expressed his agreement and looked at Lin Yan.

"It's just like the blessed land you inherited from Lord Qingling. The supreme talisman is the golden lotus... but it is divided into nine major talismans, which are the petals of the golden lotus."

Lord Zhuo Ling said: "Everyone in the world calls it the 'Pure Land Talisman'! But as the supreme talisman of the golden lotus, it is far superior to the talisman of the nine petals, which is obvious..."

Lin Yan knew what he meant.

The grades of talismans vary.

The grades of divine objects naturally vary in level.

Lin Lei paused, and then continued: "Through the clues found in various ancient sites, we can infer that in the era of the ancient gods, there were various different names for this kind of artifact that gave birth to spiritual intelligence, which was relatively complicated."

"Among the strange books of the Nanshan Holy Land, the first person to compile the 'Strange Book of Heaven and Earth' named this type of divine object that gave birth to spiritual intelligence as: Divine Instruments!"

"According to the records in the classics we know so far, the human race has refined 'divine weapons', but has not yet refined a 'divine spiritual weapon'!"

Lin Lei said this and explained: "Regarding the name of 'divine weapon', it should have appeared more than a thousand years ago. It is normal that Lord Zhuo Ling does not know it."

Lord Zhuo Ling was quite dissatisfied when he heard this, and sneered: "People in later generations just casually gave it a less than brilliant name, and did not follow the ancient names. How could I know?"

"Today I said this thing should be called a 'living artifact'!"

"If this title is passed down in the future, can you still say that from ancient times to the present day, whether it is gods, demons, or humans, they are all ignorant?"

"Just giving it a random name makes me seem short-sighted, hum..."

Lord Zhuo Ling was very dissatisfied. In an instant, he dived into the soul-binding decree and never showed up again.

Lin Lei said helplessly: "Since returning to Gaoliu City, Lord Zhuo Ling has somehow become just like Lu Tang, throwing tantrums and kicking his ass at every turn..."

Lin Yan vaguely understood something and could only explain: "When Lord Qingling was at his peak, he fought with Liu Zun! He probably sensed Liu Zun's aura and felt uneasy..."

"He has also fought with Liu Zun?"

Lin Lei couldn't help but be amazed and said, "Did He have such divine power in His heyday?"

"Who are you looking down on?"

The voice of Lord Zhuo Ling came out from the Soul Binding Decree, and he suddenly sneered.

But then He paused and said, "The Liu Zun worshipped by this city was born before Weird Night... Regarding this great evil artifact, perhaps He can give you an answer."

Hearing this, Lin Yan looked solemn.

He used the new method to cultivate the inner divine realm. After consolidating the foundation, he immediately left the city and returned directly to Gaoliu City.

The reason why he was so anxious was that he had two things on his mind.

The first is for the commander.

Lin Yan wanted to return as soon as possible to try to help the commander suppress the signs of loss of control and persist until the new method was perfected to a certain extent and the commander could practice it.

Even if he died due to failure in practicing the new method, it was at least his best effort and the commander would have no regrets.

But before he returned, the commander had been killed by a great evil artifact and was completely out of control.

For Lin Yan, this was a complete failure.

The most ironic thing is that the biggest reason for the failure lies precisely in Lin Yan himself.

"The second thing I did when I returned to Gaoliu City was to pay my respects to Mr. Liu!"

Lin Yan looked towards the inner city and said slowly, "With my current cultivation and the title of Saint Master of the Human Race, I will pay him three incense sticks... I believe it will be enough to allow Liu Zun to remain stable for a few more years."

“No.” Lord Zhuo Ling said, “Originally, with your current status, offering three incense sticks to Him would indeed be enough to keep this willow tree safe for a few years! But now, your reverence for this willow tree has become extremely weak…”

Liu Zun is the patron saint of Gaoliu City. To the people of Gaoliu City, he is like the parent of heaven and earth.

Lin Yan also had great respect for Liu Zun before.

If he didn't know the truth, even if Lin Yan achieved the inner realm of the gods, he would still respect Liu Zun.

He has never been a person who would be ungrateful once he gains power.

But this time, he was blessed by the ancient immortal's will in the city, and also learned about the contract with the ancient gods.

Liu Zun is an old god who signed a contract with the fallen ancient immortal.

However, Liu Zun's choice in his early years was to retreat from the world and live in seclusion, just like the other old gods.

Until he was awakened by Lord Qingling, he had to appear in the world!

Later, it was the Goddess of Wutong who provided the method of "power of incense and vows".

From then on, the city was built around Liu Zun. The human race had been offering sacrifices to him day and night for generations. With huge incense and vows, over a long period of time, Liu Zun finally became the true patron saint of this city!
However, the will of the "Old God" itself and the "corrupted thoughts" eroded by the strange night still cannot be eradicated.

Therefore, over the years, Liu Zun's "qi" would often wander around the city.

The most condensed "Qi" is called "Divine Will Qi"!
Liu Zun’s original intention was never to protect the human race!

Liu Zun’s original intention is the source of the catastrophe!
A big part of the reason why the commander lost control this time was due to the divine energy gathered in the flag of the Heavenly Monitoring Department... In other words, the commander's death had a lot to do with Liu Zun.

"Since you learned about the existence of the ancient immortal's will, your reverence for this willow tree has faded a lot..."

Lord Zhuo Ling said, "After returning to the city, you killed the commander of the Heavenly Monitoring Division with your own hands. Your respect for this willow tree has become even weaker... You even felt a little more resentful."

At this point, Lord Zhuo Ling poked his head out, smiled, and said, "With such a mentality, you can't be said to be pious at all, and the power of your incense and wishes is naturally not pure enough..."

"But the incense I offered was still useful after all."

Lin Yan held the Zhaoye Divine Sword in his hand and said calmly, "Today I offer incense to Lord Liu! In the future, I will still offer incense to Lord Liu again!"

-

The commander's funeral was kept simple.

Because the physical body was already dead and all traces were burned away by the blood fire of the little white ape, there was no need to send the body to Liu Zun Temple.

Lin Yan used the middle-aged scholar's head as a sacrifice.

The Tianshi Division has also obtained detailed information about this person from the Canyu Palace.

Chen Shaoyang, the deputy commander of the Lingfu Land, has reached the Qi Refining Stage. With the help of his "divine objects", he has fought against the most vicious and evil beings, thus becoming famous.

This person is good at governance and has a very high prestige in the blessed land. He is also well-known in the Canyu Palace.

He is good at understanding people's hearts and has done many "good deeds".

For example, the incident of a thousand slaps in Gao Liucheng was just the most insignificant thing in his past deeds.

He is even better at medicine and has saved many human practitioners.

The people at Canyu Mansion seemed to find it hard to believe that he had harmed the commander of Gaoliu City.

It was not until he heard the name of the "Saint Master" that the Supreme Commander of the Canyu Palace's Jiantian Division personally investigated the intelligence of this person and learned a deeper truth.

Those who were treated by Chen Shaoyang would usually change their temperament drastically and become extremely vicious after a year or so.

After being cured by him, they all went out of control within no more than five years and turned into evil spirits in the flesh.

"He saved people, but used a great evil artifact to plant evil thoughts, waiting to be harvested?"

Lin Yan looked at the information in his hand, his eyes slightly fixed, and suddenly thought of something. He sneered and said, "So that's it."

Han Zheng frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lin Yan threw the information out and said, "We all thought that Chen Shaoyang used the 1,000 slaps as a gimmick to get people to be kind and eventually save the seriously ill child."

After a pause, Lin Yan said, "But now it seems that he is not taking advantage of kindness."

Han Zheng was a little confused and still couldn't figure it out.

"At the beginning, the child slapped himself a thousand times in the downtown area..."

Lin Yan said: "What was everyone's initial thought?"

Han Zheng thought for a moment and said, "It's anger! He was unwilling to help and let the child slap him a thousand times to humiliate him, so everyone was angry! Especially when they found out that Chen Shaoyang had left the city and had been teasing the poor, sick and dying child from the very beginning... Such anger reached its peak!"

"Anger towards Chen Shaoyang is the evil thought that Chen Shaoyang needs!"

Lin Yan said in a deep voice: "He may know that if the child slaps himself in the downtown area, he can eventually survive! However, from the beginning, he did not expect people to have good intentions, but expected people to have evil intentions!"

"At the beginning, those people may not have had much sympathy for the seriously ill child, but their anger towards Chen Shaoyang was real."

"There will even be some people who support that child to appear more noble, thereby expressing their contempt for Chen Shaoyang at a higher level."

"This great evil artifact possesses ancient wisdom and knows ancient secrets. It can also allow Chen Shaoyang to possess the power of spiritual cultivation... and can also collect 'evil thoughts' from a distance to increase his power."

"This kind of divine item is enough to allow a mediocre person to have the qualifications to compete for the title of the world's top practitioners!"

"If the protagonist in the story had obtained such a treasure when he was a nobody, he might have started a glorious and legendary life."

At this point, Lin Yan had already begun to believe in his heart that this evil jar might really have originated from an ancient god!
But such a magical weapon was actually split into two halves by him with just one strike, and was destroyed!

This couldn't help but make Lin Yan feel a little dazed, as if there was a lot of mystery involved.

However, at this moment, the voice of the chief temple priest came from outside.

"Just now, Liu Zun appeared in spirit and told me about the great evil artifact."

"Hmm?" Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"That was a God King who was born in ancient times. In the ancient times, his name was known throughout the universe, and his popularity reached an unprecedented peak!"

The chief temple priest looked solemn and said, "In ancient times, every household in the human race had a seat of God King, and the incense was endless!"

"The God King has two great treasures, which respectively gather the good and evil thoughts in the world."

"And beside the God King, there are two great God Generals, who respectively control the two great divine weapons of good and evil!"

"One is called the good god, the other is the evil god."

After a pause, the chief temple priest continued, "The Great Evil Artifact is shaped like a clay pot. When the pot is full, the evil god will revive! Liu Zun asked me to tell you that if you break the Great Evil Artifact, you will be targeted by the evil god..."

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows but did not respond.

The look on the head of the temple priest was even more serious. He said, "The evil god has never signed the old covenant. If he revives, he will not be bound by the will of the ancient immortals..."
