Chapter 67 Demon Star
The divine capital, Yangjing.

The location of the spiritual platform.

Lingtai is a place for observing the weather and the stars.

Observing the stars, observing the weather, formulating laws, measuring yin and yang, and regulating the five elements are all things that the Tianjiansi has to do, and Lingtai is the most important place in the Tianjiansi.

After all, the human eye has its limits in observing the stars and the weather, so it is necessary to build a towering spiritual platform. On top of the spiritual platform are treasures and formations that can enhance vision, so that even distant stars can be seen clearly.

The art of observing the weather is very mysterious. In the ancient times, an assassin from Yan Pavilion entered the capital, and a white rainbow appeared in the sky through the sun. When the Taizu of the Divine Dynasty was born, red clouds appeared in the sky. There were reports that the Wei army was planning to destroy the country, and Taibai was seen eclipsing the Pleiades.

As the saying goes, the accumulation of mirages forms palaces, and the accumulation of essences will inevitably be manifested in the energy of clouds. Therefore, it is said: Know the matter by interpreting the energy, and know the person by looking at the clouds.

When a king appears, he must have a royal aura. When a warrior performs heroic deeds, there are also ominous signs. In ancient times, the opening and closing of the gates must be recorded, so that things can be prepared. In later times, this method was abandoned. Auspicious auras include auspicious clouds and prosperous lights, while ominous auras include rainbows and snakes. This is to predict the emperor's response, verify the harvest and disaster of the year, know the whereabouts of wise men, and predict the victory or defeat of the battle.

Therefore, the Heavenly Supervisory Department used the five clouds to distinguish good and bad luck, floods, droughts, harvests, and famines, in order to monitor celestial phenomena.

Therefore, when doing important things, one needs to ascend to the spiritual platform to observe the primordial energy, play the rhythm of time, and watch the changes of things.

At this moment, the celestial supervisors on the Lingtai are busy.

"The moon moves fourteen degrees a day, fourteen minutes a day, increases by twenty-six days, and then waxes."

"Mars enters the north of the ecliptic for more than 30 degrees, and the spherical star has already moved away. Suddenly, Venus hits Wolf Star, which is in the south of the ecliptic. It can be seen across the sky during the day, competing with the moon for brightness. It may even become an evil star."

"Another evil star has appeared. Which one is this?" asked the Chief of the Astronomical Supervision Department.

"It's the tenth one. There is one in each of the ten states of the Divine Dynasty. This time it's in Cangzhou. It's red inside and white outside, with ears on both sides, shining like the moon. It's the weakest one, but Cangzhou is also the weakest among the ten states." The Yin-Yang cultivator who was observing the qi on the spiritual platform at this moment replied.

The expression of this Yin-Yang School monk was not very pleasant.

In one year, ten evil stars appeared. They had reported the situation truthfully to the palace, but the emperor did not respond at all and did not send troops to eliminate them. I don't know what he was thinking.

The Chief of the Astronomical Supervision Department shook his head. "The essence of the star Ji turned into a spear, the essence of the star Yinghuo turned into a celestial thief, the essence of the star Taibai turned into a celestial dog, the essence of the star Chen turned into a crooked arrow, the essence of the sun turned into a bete, and the essence of the moon turned into a comet. Is this evil star a comet? Or is it a celestial thief?"

"None of them look like it. This evil star has no different appearance from top to bottom. It is hard to tell where it came from. It should not have grown into anything powerful yet." The Yin-Yang cultivator replied.

Si Zheng was helpless and just said, "Just report it as usual."

"Si Zheng, since ancient times, no matter how foolish the emperor was, upon seeing the appearance of evil stars, he would send troops to eliminate them. These evil stars have not yet become powerful enough, and it is still not too late to take action now. Has the news not reached Your Majesty?" Yin Yangjia whispered, trying to say something.

But before he could finish, Si Zheng slapped him in the face, cutting off the rest of his words: "Watch your words, I'll pretend I didn't hear anything."

After Si Zheng finished speaking, he took the records away and left the Lingtai.

And below the altar stood a minister.

Minister of Revenue, Li Zuofang.

"Master Si Zheng." He smiled and looked at the Si Zheng of the Tianjian Division.

"Ah, Lord Li, what's wrong?" Si Zheng immediately saluted and asked.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Did you see something?" Li Zuofang asked.

"Sir Li, all matters of the Jiantiansi are confidential. Even if you are a cabinet minister, you cannot ask too many questions." Si Zheng reminded.

"Minister? What minister? Your Majesty hasn't attended court for thirty-three years, so any minister is useless. I'm here to drink with you tonight. Do you want to go?"

"Okay, I'll go after I deliver the message. Lord Li can wait for me here." Si Zheng relaxed and said with a smile.

"Yeah." Li Zuofang nodded and watched the other party leave.

Then he looked at the spirit platform and then at the sky.

The demon star is born.

Unfortunately, without the help of the spiritual platform, it is difficult to see clearly with just the eyes.

So I have to personally try to see the reaction of the Chief of the Astronomical Department to know whether it has been born or not?

Now it appears that it has appeared.

------------

"Huh!" Gao Jian turned over and got up. At this time, the sun was already high in the sky.

After moving his body around and taking some medicine, and with the help of his body, Gao Jian recovered from his injuries very quickly due to his already reaching the second realm and abundant energy. The indestructible nature of Niwan allowed him to recover from his injuries very quickly.

Every time an acupoint is opened, in addition to the effect of the acupoint itself, it will greatly increase the strength of other parts of the body and strengthen all parts of the body.

However, the reason why cultivation is becoming increasingly difficult is also because of this reason.

Once one acupoint is opened, all subsequent acupoints will be strengthened, making them more difficult to open. The further you go, the more difficult it will be, but the stronger you will become as well. It can be said that blessing and curse go hand in hand.

Gao Jian twisted his neck and moved his back.

All I could hear was the crackling sound of the backbone, like jade beads falling on a plate.

comfortable.

After this night, it was almost fully grown.

I put on my clothes and moved around a bit. Apart from some dull pain, there was no other hindrance.

Gao Jian picked up his sword and hung it around his waist, and also hung the "Peace and Trouble" sign next to it.

Wearing a black official uniform, a long sword hanging from his waist, a warm jade pendant, and coupled with Gao Jian's tall and handsome figure, at first glance he looks like an elite captain with a mighty and promising future.

After washing up, Gao Jian walked out of the small room.

As soon as I went out, I saw Wang Long holding a bowl of noodles and sitting on a small stool, as if waiting for Gao's opinion.

"Hey, Brother Wang." Gao Jian waved his hand.

"Oh, don't call me Brother Wang. I should call you Brother. I carved a tablet for you last night and lit incense for you. Alas, now I think it's bad luck. I'll give it to you." Wang Long took out a fresh tablet from the package behind him and threw it to Gao Jian.

Gao Jian took a look and was delighted. It was indeed new and had not been painted yet. There was indeed a hint of smoky smell on it.

Hi, among the incense I received last night, were there any of this quality?

Gao Jian turned around and left the tablet in his room, then came out and said, "It's not bad luck, it's not bad luck. Brother Wang, you have this intention, I'll remember it. By the way, Brother Wang has been waiting here since early in the morning. Does Sima want to see me?"

"You are quite smart. Well, Sima asked me to find you and take you to him. Today you are going to the inner city with him. Can you handle it? Are you afraid?" Wang Long walked side by side with Gao Jian, holding a bowl of noodles.

"What do you think?" Gao Jian asked back.

"I now feel that there should be nothing in this world that can scare you. Oh, you are so powerful, brother. Moreover... one realm confronts three realms, breaks through in the battle, and then kills the third realm with the cultivation of the second realm. I really... don't know what to say." Wang Long smiled bitterly and shook his head.

This record is really amazing.

Even if the person killed was a witch.

Shamans are not good at frontal combat. Their bodies are weak and they focus on cultivating their divine will. The order of breakthrough is usually the spirit barrier, the qi barrier, and finally the essence barrier.

In addition, many of their moves need to be arranged in advance, and there are few spells that can be used in direct combat. Rather than hitting someone in person, they are better at summoning a group of gods to beat them up, or secretly stabbing a villain in the back.

But...that is still the third realm after all.

Maybe he even summoned the gods of the three realms to help.

Wang Long didn't know what happened, but in the end it was Gao Jian who came out alive, and he didn't even suffer any serious injuries that affected his foundation.

He really didn't know what to say, so he could only give Gao Jian the tablet he had carved last night when he couldn't sleep and sat up.

Gao Jian just said: "Those gods are very weak, you saw that, right? The gods in the outer city of Cangzhou are either mortals who have paid bribes, or some insignificant little demons who can do nothing but eat blood. You can go there too."

"Yes, yes, I believe it." Wang Long rolled his eyes.

Those gods are trash, so Zuo Baicang is also trash?

Only a fool would believe it.

The two chatted about these things and soon walked to a tent deep in the canyon.

In the Demon Suppression Division, ordinary soldiers live in tents, with four or five people in one tent, while grassroots officers have their own separate tents.

At the rank of captain, one has his own independent cabin to enjoy.

But when it reached Sima, it turned into a tent, but the specifications were slightly different. It was a large camp.

The tent was three zhang high, with flags, swords and guns outside.

Although it is covered with cloth and cowhide, at first glance, it looks like a small building.

Gao Jian and Wang Long walked into the camp gate and saw armored soldiers lined up on both sides, armed with spears and halberds, forming a murderous aura.

Gao Jian looked around, a little surprised.

A living person?
It was the first time that he saw so many living people in the Demon Suppression Bureau’s headquarters. Usually, there were only a few people in the Sutra Library and the Martial Arts Hall. What happened today?
Inside the tent, there was a long table piled with documents, and Sima was sitting there.

As soon as Gao Jian and Wang Long walked in, he stood up and strode forward with his head held high.

When Sima stepped forward, a powerful aura directly pressed down on Gao Jian and Wang Long's faces. Although there was nothing, it felt like a mountain was crashing towards them.

Wang Long took two steps back skillfully, and the feeling of oppression immediately disappeared.

This spirit is the "divine will" condensed after martial arts practitioners break through the divine barrier.

Everyone's martial arts spirit is different, and it is condensed according to the warrior's own spirit. The spirit of Sima of Cangzhou Demon Suppression Division is this, called "unprecedented".

The divine will is "frontless". There is no one in front of him, and nothing is in front of him. Whether he is walking, sitting, lying down, or even charging into battle, there cannot be anyone in front of him.

If the enemy is on the opposite side, you can only retreat.

If he did not avoid it, he would have to bear the intense pressure head-on. If Sima had the intention to kill, he might even be directly killed by the divine will, as if there was a real mountain in front of him.

But if they retreat, although the suppression will disappear, Sima's own spirit will become stronger. If ten thousand troops retreat in front of him, his spirit will probably rise to the level of being able to defeat an entire army alone.

And Gao Jian felt this divine will.

He took a deep breath and suddenly took a step forward!
With just one step, Gao Jian's body suddenly fell down!
It feels like there is a mountain on my shoulders!

Can't stand up straight...

He gritted his teeth and took another step forward!
But I only felt an enormous pressure coming, as if I was hit by a roaring train!
Unable to bear the force, Gao Jian took three steps back uncontrollably.

Thus, the pressure was relieved.

Gao Jian touched his body.

Unharmed, as if he had just been hit by a train...it was fake.

No, that must be fake, because that is "divine will", "spirit", and completely spiritual pressure.

"You are worthy of being the one who can kill the third realm in the second realm, hahaha! With my divine will, ordinary people in the third realm can't even take a single step out, but you can take two steps in the second realm. It's really... heroes emerge young." Sima's tone was heroic at first, but when he said heroes emerge young, his tone hesitated, as if he had thought of something.

Gao Jian didn't care about that. He shook his head and said, "Sima, what's the matter that you called us here for? Is it about what happened yesterday?"

"Well, yesterday, you took out the incense practice method, right?"

"Where did it come from?"

"I developed it myself, it's original and exclusive." Gao Jian said with a smile.

Sima looked at Gao Jian deeply and said, "Then stick to your statement and don't change it."

Gao Jian nodded.

Obviously, no one believed it.

Gao Jian is just a warrior, where does he get the leisure to study witchcraft?

But it didn't matter. He didn't intend to explain and just said, "Okay, then, Sima, let's go?"

"Let's go. I'll take you to see the world today. You've caused a big incident this time. The old monsters from the various noble families may not show up, but the one who is in charge of the family will definitely show up to see what you look like."

"Be brave and don't be scared when the time comes. If you are scared, you will be embarrassed." Sima patted Gao Jian's shoulder and said so.

"Sima deliberately released his divine will in order to give me a test in advance? To let me get used to it?" Gao Jian asked.

"Smart people are easy to talk to, but there's no need to say everything. Ever since you brought down Zuo Baicang, everyone has known that you have a good brain. Sometimes it's better to hide your shortcomings." Sima said, waving his hand for Wang Long to make way, and set off with his wise advice.

Wang Long held the bowl of noodles and waved to Gao Jian.

Gao Jian also waved and followed Sima out.

"We are military officers, so we won't ride in a sedan chair. Go ride your horse. I'll wait for you here."

"No need." Gao Jian said, and then blew a horse whistle.

In less than a minute, Zoulong arrived with some wounds on his body, which were caused by Zuo Baicang beating him yesterday, but it was not a big deal.

Sima had a groom leading the horse.

It was a large green horse, nine feet and five inches tall, with a long neck and wings, hanging hair on its sides, feet of green flames, and a body covered with scales, which looked five colors when viewed from the side.

This is a very sturdy horse. Judging from its size, it feels two or three times heavier than the light and agile Zoulong.

Zou Long deliberately raised his head, as if he wanted to compete with the other party for height.

The big blue horse ignored it because it was wearing horse armor that looked extremely heavy.

This was a heavily armored horse specially used for charging into battle between two armies. It was different from the light-armed and fast horse ridden by knights like Zoulong.
