The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 53 Heyang Prefecture

Li Yan used his life energy to probe into the golden token of the Demon-Subduing Division given to him by Lingjun.

This token not only represents his identity as the chief of Bozhou Demon-Subduing Bureau, but is also a storage device and has some other functions.

The token space is ten feet in radius, much larger than the two storage bags he has.

In addition to Li Yan's original things, there was also a three-foot-long black flying sword with a fish-scale-like pattern on the sword body, and the sword edges on both sides were faintly glowing with cold light.

"Moyuan Sword."

Li Yan took out the flying sword and used the flying sword technique to make it float in front of him.

This is a flying sword of magic weapon level. In recent days, he has often used his life energy to nourish this flying sword. Now he can control and use it, but if he wants to control it as he pleases, he still needs to work harder.

"Now that my Taoism has greatly improved and I have the Mo Yuan Sword with me, I can set off."

Li Yan was ready to set off. Although Ling Jun did not tell him the specific deadline, he still wanted to learn high-level spells as soon as possible, so he did not plan to stay in Hengjiang Prefecture for long.

After a battle with the divine general, he has discovered the loopholes in the magic he learned.

He must learn higher-level spells to better utilize his skills.

As for the Li family, he had already left the evil-repelling talismans he had drawn a few days ago to Li's father and Li Ke, but it was hard to say whether they would be used or not.

The monsters, big and small, that died at the hands of the Dragon King that day once again proved the Dragon King's strength.

Given the current situation in Hengjiang Prefecture, no demon or ghost would dare to set foot in Hengjiang Prefecture again in the short term.

Li Yan left the inn and walked on the street.

The city has now settled down. Although Bishop Lin caused a disaster and killed many people, life must go on.

He passed by the Li family residence and took a look at the gate of the Li Mansion, but did not stop there. He walked out of the city along the much quieter streets.

In the past few days, many people have rushed to Yuehua Temple to burn incense and gather in the temple day and night to pray for the city god, so even the number of people in the city has decreased.

Hengjiang Prefecture suffered a great disaster, and their belief in the Dragon King became even more pure, and the incense offerings to the Dragon King at Yuehua Temple became extremely popular.

As soon as Li Yan left the city, he saw the huge shadow of the Palace God, which was a hundred feet high, condensed in the sky above Yuehua Temple.

The scene was shocking, but Li Yan was no longer as shocked as he was at the beginning.

When the divine domain took shape, Li Yan sighed, and mist rose from under his feet, carrying him high into the sky.

He took a deep look at the Hengjiang City below, and then flew towards the Heyang Prefecture.

"Hengjiang Mansion, I will be back soon."

……

Heyang Prefecture, Bozhou.

Heyang Prefecture is the capital of Bozhou, with a vast territory that cannot be compared with ordinary prefectures.

There is another difference between this place and Hengjiang Prefecture. Since the prefecture god has fallen, there is no divine protection here.

Fortunately, there is not only the Demon-Subduing Department here, but also a large number of practitioners who slay demons and ghosts to maintain stability.

Therefore, even if a demon disaster occurs, it will only be contained in a small area and will be quickly quelled.

Li Yan flew through the sky on the mist and did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

With his current strength, he is already considered a top practitioner in Liang State.

Of course it is impossible that you would encounter a thousand-year-old monster just by crossing the road.

After a long flight, he finally arrived at the capital of Heyang Prefecture.

The Demon-Subduing Office is located within the city.

Li Yan just looked down and found the huge Demon-Subduing Office.

He flew down to the Demon Subduing Division below. Before he landed, he saw a middle-aged Taoist priest with a goatee appear from the Demon Subduing Division and fly towards him. "Who are you, senior? May I ask what you want to do in my Demon Subduing Division?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest stood in mid-air with a serious expression on his face.

"I am a Taoist."

Li Yan's expression remained unchanged, and he stretched out his hand to display the golden token.

When the Taoist saw the golden order in Li Yan's hand, he suddenly showed joy on his face. He bowed his head and saluted towards Li Yan with an excited look, saying, "It turns out that it is Director Yan who has come. I am Lian Mingkuan, the deputy director of the Bozhou Demon-Subduing Department. I pay my respects to Director Yan!"

The original chief of the Demon-Subduing Department of Heyang Prefecture was named Ji Daoren.

Taoist Ji's fire magic is extremely powerful. He once single-handedly killed a thousand-year-old monster that was entrenched in Heyang Prefecture. He is very powerful and has a very high prestige in Heyang Prefecture.

But some time ago, because of the abnormalities in Hongyue Prefecture in Hanzhou, Master Ji was secretly transferred from Heyang Prefecture to Hongyue Prefecture for support.

This has resulted in the position of the Chief of Heyang Prefecture being vacant for some time.

Lian Mingkuan can only manage it on behalf of others.

He has been very nervous during this period of time.

When Master Ji was around, his reputation was enough to intimidate the demons, and they did not dare to cause trouble.

But after Master Ji left, Heyang Prefecture lost such high-end combat power, and Lian Mingkuan lost his support. Although he remained calm on the surface, he was very anxious in his heart.

He knew very well that the news of Ji Daoren's departure could not be kept secret for too long.

Fortunately, the General Secretary also knew the situation in Heyang Prefecture and told Lian Mingkuan a few days ago. He would arrange for a Taoist priest to come and serve as the chief of the department.

Now that Li Yan has arrived, Yan Mingkuan can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, there is no news that Liupo Taoist is in charge of Heyang Prefecture. Once it is discovered by demons and ghosts, it will probably encounter another disaster from demons and ghosts.

"No need to be polite."

Li Yan looked calm. Under the guidance of Lian Mingkuan, he fell into the inner court of the Demon-Subduing Division.

Along the way, Lian Mingkuan was also introducing the situation of Heyang Prefecture to Li Yan.

"Besides me, there are two other Five Spirits Great Mage in the Demon Subduing Division, Jin Yang and Geng Shu."

"One of them is good at thunder magic, and the other is good at spells. Now they are out there subduing demons."

“There are many thousand-year-old monsters in Heyang Prefecture, among which the Tiger Immortal and the thousand-year-old mountain mandrill are the strongest. They occupy Jishi Mountain and Wuyu Mountain, and they rule one side. From time to time, they come out of the mountains to capture people.

“However, ever since Taoist Ji killed a thousand-year-old fish monster in the Sishui River, Tiger Immortal and the thousand-year-old mandrill seemed to be a little afraid, and they were quiet for a while.”

Li Yan was shocked when he heard this.

Without the protection of the divine realm, the people in Heyang Prefecture were living such a miserable life.

"Is there no one to kill these monsters?"

Li Yan couldn't help but ask questions.

Lian Mingkuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The territory of our Liang country is vast, but there are very few Taoists with six or seven souls. Many places need them to stay in charge of the balance, so it is difficult to free up manpower."

"What about Ling Jun? Can't he do it too?"

Li Yan knew Ling Jun's strength, which was so powerful that it was terrifying, so he couldn't help but ask.

Lian Mingkuan looked at Li Yan in surprise and said, "In order to protect Liang from being attacked by other demon kings, Ling Jun has signed the list and cannot attack demons below the demon king level. Therefore, we have to deal with the old demons and even demon kings in Liang."

"Originally, Heyang Prefecture was protected by the divine domain, so the situation was better. But since the death of the Heyang Prefecture God, the situation is not optimistic."

　Today's update may be a little late, sorry.
