In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 390 Gong Qing
Between the Tongtian Talisman and the Taishang Sanwudugong Jing Talisman, Qingshui chose to look at the latter first.

The Tongtian Talisman represents the highest achievement in the art of talismans in the world, but if one does not lay a solid foundation, or even cannot draw a simple talisman, then the Tongtian Talisman will be of no use.

The Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Sutra given to him by the old Taoist priest contained much more content and was more detailed than what was circulated in the outside world.

The talisman is only an important part of it; many other things such as sacrificial ceremonies, opening of the altar, and rituals are also included.

Because according to the normal process, if you want to draw talismans, you must know these things.

Some common talismans, such as those for warding off evil spirits, attracting wealth from the five directions, eliminating disasters, and changing luck and increasing blessings, can be drawn by a Taoist priest who has achieved success in spiritual cultivation, even if the person is not an extraordinary person.

These are all eighth or ninth grade talismans. If the person who drew the talismans is not strong enough, then even if they are drawn, they may not be effective. However, if a truly high-level master draws them, even if the talismans are not of high grade, they can still have a good effect.

Steps such as opening the altar, performing rituals, blessing, and consecrating can all increase the success rate and power of drawing talismans.

The talismans of the sixth and seventh grades can be considered as talismans that can truly be used in battle.

Generally speaking, at this stage, the above steps are necessary. Otherwise, once backlash occurs, not only will all efforts be wasted, but at the very least, the person will suffer mental trauma, and at the worst, their cultivation will be damaged. It will be impossible to recover without a period of recuperation.

Even time and place will have an impact.

The first talisman recorded in the Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Jinglu, the Tai Shang Zheng Yi Tong Zi Yi Jiang Jun Lu, states that "Qi responds to the first month festival, the day is in the void, Zhen Yang is peaceful and governed, and the beginning of spring comes forty-five days after the winter solstice."

Unless one is a highly accomplished practitioner of talismans, or has a special inheritance, one can reduce some of the steps as appropriate.

But even for the Maoshan Shangqing Sect, which is the best at drawing talismans, it takes at least several hours to draw a talisman like this.

As for the talismans of the fourth and fifth grades, and even above the third grade, they will only be more difficult and more complicated.

As it should be, the power will be greater.

With the Tongtian Lu, one does not need to open an altar or use paper and pen. He can use Qi as ink and draw talismans in the air without fear of backlash, and complete the task in one go.

That's why Zhang Zhiwei said that Lu Jin could treat the precious talismans that the major sects cherished as treasures as beans.

Because those high-level talismans, especially those above the third grade, can be regarded as the sect's treasures when placed in small sects. Even the three sects only have a limited number of talismans, and each one is extremely precious and can be regarded as the sect's heritage.

If one day the Tianshi Temple is attacked, these Taoists can kowtow a few times in front of the ancestor's hall, and then take down the talismans offered in front of the statue during morning prayers, to let the enemy see what the strength of a big sect is.

Such as now.

Quan Xing attacks the mountain!
"The first command of Qian Gua is to command the heavenly soldiers. The second command of Kun Gua is to slay the demons. The third command is to shock the heavenly soldiers with thunder. The fourth command is to burn the evil spirits with fire."

Qingshui saw with his own eyes a fat young Taoist priest with a big nose, shaking a bell in his left hand, holding a talisman in his right hand, and taking steps similar to the Yu Gang Step, and he chopped several Quanxing monsters into charcoal.

"I am guilty, I am guilty. Master Sanqing, I have broken my vows and killed someone today."

The fat Taoist priest Ye Xing looked at the corpse on the ground and cursed him several times.

"Professor Zhuo, Mr. Yue, there are demons invading Longhu Mountain. As guests, please stay away."

"It's alright, Taoist Ye Xing, where is Senior Tian?"

"You two, this is..."

"It's okay. I just got the Supreme Three-Five-Du Gong Sutra from the old Heavenly Master. I have some questions that I want to ask Mr. Tian. I can also help look after the old man."

"Wulian Tianzun, I'll have to trouble you two donors. Master Uncle Tian is now in the north room of the west courtyard at the back."

After bidding farewell to Taoist Ye Xing, the two of them set off again soon.

But Longhu Mountain is indeed a bit chaotic tonight.

Although these troops attacking the mountain were not good at organization and coordination, their purpose was very clear. They were quite familiar with the terrain and manpower distribution inside Longhu Mountain, and it was obvious that they had an insider inside Longhu Mountain.

Some important locations, such as the Wanfa Sect Altar, the Jade Emperor Hall and other important places are guarded by masters of the Tianshi Mansion, leaving other places empty.

At least Qingshui and Yue Qian met many people of Quanxing along the way.

However, most of these people could not withstand Yue Qian's sword energy that was fused with Bingsha.

The current Yue Qian still has a certain gap compared to Lu Jin, Lu Ci, and the two heroes, but compared to masters like Huang Ning'er who are at the passing level of the Ten Masters, he is not much behind.

But there are also some powerful ones.

"Flower! How are you!"

Lu Linglong and Zhi Jinhua stood back to back, looking warily at the group of people who had surrounded them.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a cold face and slightly old appearance.

The whole nature of the corpse demon is covering your room.

He is the only extant successor of the Anlu Three Demon Sect in the world. He is also the most powerful master in the whole Xing except Ding Shimaan. He can compete head-on with Tang Miaoxing, the leader of the Tang Sect, without losing the upper hand at all, and is not inferior to some of the older generation of strong men.

This is a master who earned the name of Three Corpses by himself and is as famous as the Four Madmen.

However, he did not take action now, but watched as several gangsters dressed as thugs besieged Lu Linglong and Zhi Jinhua as if he was just holding the line.

"That guy is... Zhuo Qingshui?"

"Is that the guy who took the Tongtian Scroll?"

"Don't mess with that guy. He's not just from the alien world. If we dare to hurt him, we'll be doomed. Tomorrow we'll launch a large-scale anti-gangster campaign to wipe out all Quanxing."

Most people don't want to mess with Qingshui.

Even if he is a desperado, he is a desperado with brains.

But some people are dismissive.

"What are you afraid of? It will be fine if we don't hurt him."

A fat man holding a bunch of long needles spat.

"You, Mr. Zhuo, you are a cultured person. I won't hurt you. As long as you take Tongtian..."

"Shh!"

A sword energy blended with the power of the soldier flew out and flew towards the fat man.

However, this person held the steel needle in front of him and blocked Yue Qian's sword.

The steel needle broke with a sound, and the fat man narrowly avoided the attack.

"Oh?"

Yue Qian looked at the fat man in surprise.

Being able to take his attack and escape unscathed, this fat guy is considered an expert in the world of extraordinary people.

Tu Junfang's eyes narrowed.

This guy is very strong, and he doesn't have much confidence in winning.

"Brother Yue, make a quick decision."

Qingshui silently put the platinum on his body, revealing more than a dozen gun muzzles, and the palm of his hand was shining with the light of the energy cannon.

Seeing this scene, everyone remembered how Zhang Lingyu lost at the Luotian Grand Ceremony when he activated the water mine.

Crushed and defeated with overwhelming force.

Among all the Quanxing people present, except Tu Junfang, no one dared to say that he was Zhang Lingyu's opponent.

The little girl Lu Linglong's eyes lit up.

"Ahua, let's go too!"

However, Lu Linglong and Zhi Jinhua didn't have any chance to take action at all.

Swords were flying everywhere and artillery fire was blasting everywhere.

In just a moment, the ground was littered with broken limbs and arms.

Except Tu Junfang.

The moment Qingshui made a move, the corpse demon decisively betrayed his teammates and retreated under the cover of the three corpses.

He had no interest in messing with Longhu Mountain, and he joined Quanxing only to facilitate his search for the last lost Three Demon Sect's inheritance of beheading the three corpses. He didn't want to get involved with Qingshui and the others at all, because that would mean that no matter which country or other national forces would come to trouble him.

"Professor Zhuo, Senior Yue, thank you very much!"

Lu Linglong took Zhi Jinhua with her and bowed to Qingshui and Yue Qian.

"It doesn't matter."

Qingshui waved his hand.

Zhi Jinhua's lips moved slightly, as if she was about to say something, but suddenly an extremely powerful yet very manic Qi erupted from the woods in the distance.

"This Qi is... Grandpa?"

Lu Linglong looked towards the woods in the distance, her beautiful big eyes revealing a hint of worry.

Qingshui also turned his attention there.

From childhood to old age, Grandpa Lu was beaten most of the time when he took action, but at this point in time, Lu Jin's strength is similar to that of Lu Ci and others, and he belongs to the first tier below the BUG-level character of the old Taoist priest.

The hundreds of years of cultivation of this group of old monsters are not to be underestimated. Both their methods and experience have reached an extremely high level. Strictly speaking, in the era before Zhang Zhiwei, they were only half a step away from the so-called pinnacle.

It seems that no one except the old Taoist priest can easily deal with Lu Jin, who was ambushed and possessed by the four crazy men of Quan Xing.

If it were Lu Ci, Wang Ai and other old guys, let’s not talk about whether they have similar means to the Purifying Heart Mantra. Even if they do, in the same scenario, even if they are willing, they will lose most of their lives, even if they don’t lose one.

That being said, the old Heavenly Master and Zhang Chulan are about to interrupt the Heavenly Master's journey.

And once the Heavenly Master shows up, after making sure that person is led away...

Thoughts flashed through Qingshui's mind rapidly.

"Brother Yue, go faster. This time, let me lead the way."

Qingshui took the initiative to control Bai Jin and set off again, with full power, pushing forward all the way.

Lu Linglong and Zhi Jinhua watched the two people go away: ...

"Ahua, then what should we do next..."

"We can't interfere with Patriarch Lu's affairs. Let's go help others now!"

……

……

Longhu Mountain, Tianshi Mansion, the north house in the west courtyard of the back mountain.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound was heard, and a little Taoist boy fell weakly to the ground.

"Xiaoyu, you..."

Tian Jinzhong looked in disbelief at the other Taoist boy in front of him who had his back to him and his head tilted.

A little Taoist boy who had served him for nearly a year.

"I've been here for three years, and I've developed feelings for you and Longhu Mountain."

The Taoist boy tilted his head slightly, looked at Tian Jinzhong, and turned around.

"The acting head of Quanxing, Gong Qing, has met Mr. Tian."

Tian Jinzhong stared with red eyes and said nothing.

"In order to learn the truth about the former leader Wu Gensheng's betrayal of Quan Xing, I stayed in Longhu Mountain for three years. I spent two years gaining your trust, and another year observing you. Only then did I know why you practiced meditation for decades and dared not sleep. It was because you really knew something, and this thing was related to Wu Gensheng and Zhang Huaiyi, who swore brotherhood with Wu Gensheng and created the Eight Wonders together."

Gong Qing looked at Tian Jinzhong, who was as stubborn as a rock and refused to speak, and pushed open the door.

A young man with a yellow bowl cut was standing outside the door.

Lu Liang.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me."

Gong Qing took out the Ghost Gate Needle passed down from Bi Yuan.

"Master Tian, you haven't closed your eyes for seventy years. All Xiao Yuzi can do for you is to ask you to sleep..."

"bump!"

The wall of the yard was blown open in an instant.

Tian Jinzhong couldn't help but turn his head to look.

A person with complete integrity shouldn't go to this extent, right?

This is the heartland of the Tianshi Mansion. Even Gong Qing, who was the insider, and Lu Liang, who was taken in by them, did not dare to make too much noise here.

So who is coming?

"Hey, Senior Tian, it seems that I arrived just in time!"

Qingshui's voice came from the platinum puppet, and the muzzles of its cannons were all aimed at Lu Liang and Gong Qing.

Yue Qian held a bloody saber in his hand and followed Qingshui closely.

Gong Qing: …

Is it too late for me to put down the ghost needle and continue to be Xiao Yuzi?

Cold sweat broke out on Lu Liang's forehead.

He is better than Gong Qing.

The latter is the acting head of Quanxing. He planned Quanxing's attack on Longhu Mountain and lurked in Tianshi Mansion for three years. He almost killed Tian Jinzhong, the only master-level figure of the same generation as Zhang Zhiwei in Tianshi Mansion. It can be said that he is dead.

Lu Liang actually wanted to die immediately.

Because he was afraid of falling into the hands of his great grandfather Lu Ci.

For the sake of the Lu family's bloodline, Lu Ci would definitely protect him if he knew about it, but it was certain that his life would be completely ruined for the rest of his life.

Given Lu Ci's way of doing things, Lu Liang didn't dare to think about what would happen to him in the future.

Of course, he and Gong Qing could try to resist. The latter was able to take the position of the head of Quanxing, although a large part of it was due to his brains and taking advantage of the situation, his strength was actually not bad.

If Gong Qing had weak strength, he would not have been able to survive until now as the acting leader in the hands of a group of desperate criminals like Quan Xing.

But they had already witnessed Zhuo Qingshui's strength at the Luotian Grand Ceremony, and with the addition of Yue Qian, who was obviously a master from the army, they really didn't have much chance of winning.

"Professor Zhuo, Major Yue, thank you very much."

Tian Jinzhong breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I am not afraid of death, who would want to die if they can avoid it?

"You're too polite. I just received the Great Three-Five-Du Gong Sutra from the old Heavenly Master, and I have a lot of questions I want to ask you. Isn't this just a coincidence?"

"Haha, all the talismans? That's easy. Even if you want the Five Thunder talismans, I will have to ask my senior brother to teach you."

"That's not necessary. The old Heavenly Master said that I can go to Longhu Mountain to ask for the Three Caves and Five Thunder Scrolls in the future."

"Oh?"

Tian Jinzhong was a little surprised.

What did this young man talk about with his senior brother?
Even in the current Longhu Mountain, no more than five people can access the Three Caves and Five Thunder Talismans.

It seems that the senior brother is very optimistic about, no, he values the influence of this young man.

Qingshui smiled slightly and looked at Lu Liang and Gong Qing who were knocked unconscious by Yue Qian's two slaps.

This time, the Tianshi Mansion owed him another big favor.
