From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 102 Hedong Cowherd Demon

If a monster cultivates for 500 years and survives the thunder tribulation, it can break through to the fifth level and become a monster fairy. The killing tribulation of heaven and earth occurs at intervals of 1,500 years.

Yesterday, Li Taiping gave a long speech about history, which really scared Yu Shuyang. At the end, he asked about the murderous disaster and calculated that there were only 800 years left.

To be honest, if ordinary monsters don’t practice hard enough, or have poor talent and understanding, they will have no chance of catching up with the next killing calamity.

He is not like Li Zhen, who is easily blinded by wealth. After all, he has cultivated a quiet and natural style. How does that sentence go?

There is no inner demon in internal disasters, and there is no man-made disaster in external disasters.

In other words, external disasters can only prevent man-made disasters, and should or may be ineffective against disasters that cause harm.

Even so, he would not panic. With eight hundred years of careful planning, he might be able to escape the calamity and ascend to heaven.

Whoever is willing to accept this killing calamity can cleanse himself. This is not his goal. The only destination is to escape the calamity and ascend to heaven.

From then on, Yu Shuyang slowly honed his life skills by the Mohe Pond, constantly tempering the Ren Yang water Qi and collecting water evil in preparation for future evil transformation.

Yu Shuyang said there are two ways to ward off evil. The combination of Ren Yang water Qi and Gui water evil is Yin Yang water, which has the changes of Ren Yang and Gui Yin.

It can also be combined with the water evil of Hai to form clear and turbid water. This water has both the Taiwei and Liangyi auras, and can lift up clear water and sink turbid water.

In comparison, Taiwei Liangyi and Liangyi Killing complement each other. The most important thing is that Yu Shuyang knows a legend that the first killing formation in the acquired world is called Liangyi Microdust Sword Formation.

However, according to legend, to set up this formation, one needs to borrow a magical talisman - the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Talisman.

He dared not even think about this treasure, but the clear and turbid Dharma water combined with his Dharma image - the North Sky Black Tortoise Golden Wind Altar, had a miraculous effect of suppressing and refining.

Just think about it, if he fails to pass the tribulation and ascend to heaven in eight hundred years, and fails to become a true disciple of the Taoist Alliance, this method is specifically used to restrain the magic cultivators.

The Divine Sect and the Demon Sect are two branches of Shinto practitioners. The Divine Sect is committed to lifelong service to the gods, and their cultivation methods are mostly for worshipping gods and servicing ghosts. When they take action, they will have a bunch of magical weapons and generals.

The Demon Sect mainly relies on sensing the authority of the gods and using incense to sacrifice and cultivate supernatural powers. The methods of cultivation are mostly to sacrifice and cultivate the golden body with supernatural powers, and to drive the golden body to perform the gods when fighting against the enemy.

This golden body was refined in imitation of the Dharma body of a god. After all, there is no fatal obstacle. It only needs to be trapped and refined.

Yu Shuyang was refining Qi while collecting water evil spirits, and at the same time he was calculating with the Black Tortoise Book. He remembered that after neutralizing the evil spirits, he could then use them to create thunder.

This is considered peaceful. He and his junior brother Li Taiping are both busy refining their Qi. In comparison, they have witnessed the difficulty of the Si beast's practice.

Since that day, Li Taiping has refined the Beidou Tiangang Blanket. Every morning and evening, he would store Qi towards the Beidou. Perhaps it was because the Beidou Qi was difficult to refine, so he could only refine a strand of Qi every day.

Based on this speed, it would take at least several decades for him to refine the talisman, and another few decades for him to break through to the ninth level of the Dharma form.

By this calculation, I don’t know when I will be able to escape the calamity and ascend to heaven. Fortunately, the rhinoceros beast is also a long-lived species. If it were a short-lived creature like the Spring and Autumn Bug, don’t even think about it.

After both of them finished their practice that day, they gathered together to recite and discuss scriptures. Although the killing calamity was still eight hundred years away, Yu Shuyang had to make preparations for both scenarios.

Apart from the need to abide by the Taoist rules, there are no disadvantages in being admitted to the Taoist Alliance. It can be said that there are many benefits.

For example, there is a library in the Taoist Alliance, which contains many Taoist methods and scriptures. If you can't find a suitable one, you can ask the scripture master for help.

The Heavenly Wind Method and Pure Natural Wind that he is practicing now are both inclined towards magical powers. If he wants to go a step further, it is not impossible to seek a Taoist scripture on the origin of wind.

Furthermore, the Dao League also had an examination office that could help disciples seek divine positions based on their celestial and military merits, thus facilitating their cultivation. This was also where Li Taiping instructed Li Zhen on how to solve problems. Not everyone could become a true disciple, having their names recorded in the Jade Book and receiving protection.

Taking the civil service exam is another way. It can help to obtain the divine position and refine it into a divine talisman. Then you can wear the divine talisman to perform your duties.

Compared with deifying and returning to one's position, the duties of the divine scroll are easy and have advantages. The most important thing is that the path of cultivation is continuous, while the gods who return to their positions will never have the opportunity to escape the calamity and ascend.

The divine talisman can be worn when performing duties, and can be taken off later. If one day you want to escape the calamity and ascend to heaven, you can hand the divine talisman over to the examination office, and they will arrange for a suitable disciple to perform the duties, without delaying your escape from the calamity and ascending to heaven.

Yu Shuyang was even happier now. He now had three paths to choose from. If he practiced quickly, he could escape the calamity early. If he had more ability, his name would be included in the Jade Book, and the calamity would not dare to happen to him.

If one is unlucky, lacking in cultivation and ability, one can also go to the examination office to refine the divine position and wear the divine talisman to perform duties.

Before he could practice diligently for a few days, something happened. Master Yu called him and Li Taiping over, and Xia Wushou came with a bull-headed demon.

Yu Shuyang compared the two and wondered if he was here to recognize his relatives.

That's not right. Li Taiping is the descendant of Banjiao Qingmujian's ancestral bloodline. Judging from the skin color and horns of the bull-headed monster, it is clearly an old yellow cow with two horns.

After some introductions, I finally understood that it was just a recognition of relationship, but in fact, they came to send an invitation, inviting me to go to Hedong to attend the Cowherd Conference.

This Cowherd is not from a brothel, but the Cowherd of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. The Taicang Embroidery House, which is adjacent to the blessed land, was built on the site of the Taicang Weaver Girl Temple.

In contrast, there is also a Cowherd Temple in Hedong. Similar to the Weaver Girl's Qiqiao Festival, there is also a Cowherd Conference on the last day of the winter month every year.

On that day, all the bull spirits, bull monsters, old cows and calves in the world can participate, and the winner will receive the blessing of the Niu Su Tianmen God.

The one in front of you is one of the thirty-six bull demons who won last year. He came to the Happy Fish Blessed Land to help obtain happy fish, but he didn't expect to hear that there was a reverted ancestral rhinoceros beast in the blessed land.

This si beast is not a cow at its root, but it is very ancient. Rhinoceroses are recognized as one of the same clan by bull monsters, let alone the more noble si beast.

"Elder Li, no matter what, you have to attend this year's conference. The three elders in the clan have been absent for a long time, and this is a good opportunity to formally notify everyone." The Bull-Headed Demon kept persuading.

The status of the Si beast is very high among the bull monsters. It is one of the three elders passed down from generation to generation, although this is just an empty title.

After all, there are so many bull monsters in the world, and they are not all classified into one clan. The Three Elders of the Bull Monster Clan is just a nice name.

"Taiping, there is no rush for this matter. You should take your time to think about it. There is still plenty of time." Master Yu saw that his apprentice was in trouble and tried to help.

Seeing that he could not get what he wanted, and after hearing what Mr. Yu said, the bull-headed monster had no choice but to give up. Fortunately, he stayed in Taicang until the end of July before returning to Hedong.

He would find opportunities to persuade him slowly during normal times, but it was also his fault that he was too excited and impatient at the time, so the Bull-Headed Demon had no choice but to follow Xia Wushou and leave.

"Junior brother, are there any difficulties in this conference?" Yu Shuyang and others asked after they walked away.

"Brother, you don't know the calculations here. The name of the Cowherd Assembly is related to the bull demon, but behind it is the trick of the Heavenly Drum Star God to collect incense.

"We're not even related to each other, so why should I stand up for him and let him use my name to gain benefits?" Li Taiping said angrily.

"The Cowherd Temple in Hedong and the Weaver Girl Temple in Taicang have been organizing marriages every year. If you don't want to agree to this, you must think of a good excuse. I will help you to block it when the time comes." said Master Yu.

　I woke up at five in the morning and drank two cups of coffee to wake myself up, but I still felt a little dizzy. I felt that the polishing might be a little lacking. Let's take a look. The background of the story has been explained clearly, and it's time to move on to the next story.
