After practicing Qi for a thousand years, one can finally become a god!

Chapter 134 Centipede [2nd update, please give me a monthly ticket! ]

However, Qi Sheng and his group escaped the pursuit of the monsters and demons in Taomeiling. They traveled day and night and finally arrived not far from Yanyue Temple. Cuican Mountain was already in sight.

Everyone found a place not far away to rest and recover their strength.

Two days passed in a flash.

This morning.

Qi Sheng saw Master Jingyin take out a long box, which was made of fine iron and was very sturdy.

He then took out a gourd from the leopard skin bag and poured out dozens of pills.

Then he opened the lid of the box, and saw a two-foot-four-inch long centipede lying inside, with red scales all over its body, and two eyeballs the size of tea bowls, emitting a dazzling green light.

Nun Jingyin placed the elixir in the box. The centipede suddenly began to wriggle, and Nun Jingyin quickly closed the lid of the box.

Everyone was shocked.

Wang Qunsu said, "Such a magical object must be extremely poisonous. I wonder when did the nun obtain it?"

Before Nun Jingyin could say anything, Wang Chongsu laughed and said, "Others only know that Yanyue Temple has two great treasures: one is the 'Great Compassion Golden Wheel', and the other is the 'Demon Subduing Prayer Beads'. But they don't know that Cuican Mountain also has two major poisonous creatures, one of which is this 'Iron Centipede'."

"Oh?"

Wang Qun really didn't know.

Wu Shuang was also curious: "What is the origin of this 'Iron Centipede'? What can it do?"

This time, it was Nun Jingyin who responded: "When my humble teacher, Master Dingwu, was a virgin in her boudoir, she was extremely mischievous. One day, she caught a centipede, no more than three or two inches long. She placed it in a box and fed it with herbs every day. Over time, it gradually grew. By the time she married, the centipede was almost five or six feet long, and she insisted on sending it off with her. Her grandfather, fearing it would be shocking, refused to let her go. With no other options, she had the centipede carried to the mountains and released."

"Later, her husband died, and her teacher, heartbroken, became a nun. However, by chance, she acquired some magical skills and established the Moon-Shattering Temple on that mountain. Years later, she discovered that the centipede she had raised and released had become a formidable force, and even recognized her. So, she collected it and made it her mountain treasure."

"For over a hundred years, thanks to the incantations used by my master and others, this centipede has been fed with elixirs and magical medicines. Not only is it infinitely powerful and can grow or shrink, it is also quite spiritual and never hurts anyone easily. It is called the 'Iron Centipede'."

Nun Jingyin put away the fine iron box and said with a smile, "Don't underestimate it, everyone. Its strength is truly formidable. Even my master claims he might not be its match."

Master Dingwu, the master of silence, was quite famous and powerful during his lifetime.

"Is this iron centipede so powerful?"

Even Master Dingwu couldn't defeat it?

Qi Sheng was startled and then puzzled: "Since Master has this magical object, why didn't she release it during this journey?"

Nun Jingyin had encountered many dangers along the way——

He was first captured by the demon Cha, and Qingbai's life was almost lost.

Outside of Wankuling, he was entangled by the "entangled silk" of the old demon Cha Zhenzhen from the Hehuan Sect, and his life was almost in danger.

He was burned by Liehuo Sanren's fire flag again, and the poisonous Yin Fire corroded into his body, almost costing Qingbai his life.

But she never used the 'Iron Centipede' during these times.

Considering that all the disciples of Yanyue Temple had even chosen to leave to avoid the disaster, Qi Sheng speculated: "Could it be that this 'Iron Centipede' was injured?"

The nun shook her head and said, "Young Master Qi, you don't know. This iron centipede has been raised in Brilliant Mountain since childhood. It's so attached to this place that it won't move. But I can't take it with me. I've only been here these past two days, using secret techniques and elixirs to summon it. It's only come out for a few moments now. But if I don't send it back within two or three days, it will surely cause great harm."

It turned out to be the case.

I didn't expect that this iron centipede is such a homebody.

But there is still one thing that is unclear. Since the Iron Centipede is so powerful, why can't Yanyue Temple defeat the Six Demons?

Jing Xuan smiled bitterly, "The Wang family head said earlier that there are two poisonous creatures in the Brilliant Mountain. One is the 'Iron Centipede', and the other is a 'Golden Scale Snake'."

Jingxuan started.

The remaining nuns added to the story one after another, and Qi Sheng and the others finally understood the whole story.

It has been said since ancient times that one thing can subdue another. There are two major poisonous creatures in Cuican Mountain. Among them, the 'Golden Scale Snake' is most afraid of the 'Iron Centipede'. The Yanyue Temple raises the 'Iron Centipede' to indirectly control the 'Golden Scale Snake' and use it for its own benefit, deterring the surrounding villains from daring to invade Cuican Mountain.

The golden-scaled snake was originally controlled by the iron centipede and had long been docile.

In the morning and evening, it spews poisonous mist from its mouth, which condenses into clouds and reflects the morning glow and sunset of Cuican Mountain, which becomes a wonder of the mountain. This is another origin of the name Cuican Mountain.

In the past hundred years, the golden-scaled snake has only been breathing out smoke on this mountain. It has never harmed anyone because it is restrained by the Moon-covering Temple and the Iron Centipede.

Who would have thought that the situation had changed so drastically in the past two years. From the hour of Chen to the hour of You, when the demon was cultivating in the cave, it was not a problem.

But once the sun sets and it's late at night, the evil snake will come out to cause trouble. Master Jingyin releases the iron centipede to fight it several times and finally suppresses it.

But there is something strange after all.

The reason was previously unknown.

It was not until more than half a year ago that it was discovered that the six demons were behind this. They sneaked into a peach valley in Cuican Mountain and used some unknown means to make the demon snake, which had originally accepted its fate and been deeply influenced by Buddhism, become irritable again and obey the orders of the six demons.

Originally, the demon snake was no match for the iron centipede, but since it had the help of the six demons, it was able to suppress the iron centipede. On the contrary, the Yanyue Temple Gang was no match for the six demons.

Danger gradually arose, and many people in Yanyue Temple were killed or injured.

Only then did Master Jingyin make the decision, dismissing her disciples and followers and personally taking Jingxuan and others out of the mountains to avoid disaster.

Then, after hearing about the Han family's immortal palace, he rushed to Changwei Mountain to provide support.

After that, he encountered the old demon Cha, met Qi Sheng and others, and then, until today, he finally returned to Cuican Mountain.

……

This day.

Brilliant Mountain.

Nun Jingyin led Qi Sheng and others to the mountain. She called out a few times in the direction of Taogu.

Huhuhu~
Suddenly there was a strong wind.

It happened so quickly that a gust of black wind blew out of the Peach Valley, and out rushed a huge snake with golden scales and red eyes. It was about ten feet long, with a waist like a jar, and it moved like the wind.

It's here in a flash.

It’s that evil snake!
Wang Qun had been waiting there for a long time and shouted, "Just in time!"

Immediately a beam of jade light flew out from his hand, and it was the 'Yujing Sword'.

When the snake saw the light, it spit out a ten-foot-long flame from its mouth, which entwined with the light. After a brief struggle, the flames overwhelmed the sword light, and Wang Qun was unexpectedly defeated by the demon snake.

Wang Chongsu hurriedly summoned his flying sword: "Death, monster!"

He released the flying sword in his hand, and a green light flew towards the snake's head.

The green and jade lights shone together, but the demon snake firmly gained the upper hand just by relying on the flames.

"evil creature!"

Seeing this, Wu Shuang, Madam Qin, and Jing Xuan attacked almost at the same time.

Wu Shuang sacrificed the Jade Well Cave's most precious treasure, the 'Golden Ring of Freedom'.

Madam Qin summoned her flying sword.

Jingxuan offered the newly acquired treasure of Yanyue Temple, the 'Golden Wheel of Great Compassion'.

Sanbao is powerful.

Even with the two kings' flying swords combined, they still couldn't defeat the demon snake.

"It's so awesome!"

Han Zhi's face was filled with shock, and his mouth opened slightly. Qi Sheng saw that the demon snake could spit fire, so he used the "Spark Technique" and the Buddha's Wrathful Lotus completed the flames, burning the demon snake fiercely.

The snake seemed to know how powerful the fire lotus was, so it coiled up into a pile and spewed out a fiery poisonous mist, pushing away the flaming fire lotus around it, but it was unable to be hurt.

Seeing the demon snake fighting with those sword lights and precious lights, even though the flying swords were sharp and the treasures were powerful, they could not hurt it at all.

Wang Qun and Wang Chongsu each occupied a high point and directed their swords to fight the snake.

"I come!"

Qi Sheng observed for a while and saw that the 'Buddha's Wrathful Lotus' could not harm the demon snake. He thought that all other visible magic spells were useless. He took out two purple-gold whips from his ears, shouted, jumped down the mountain, and performed a fire-proof spell to engage in close combat with the demon snake.

Boom boom boom!
Not only was the fiery and poisonous fog of this demon snake formidable, but its golden scales were comparable to divine armor. No matter how Qi Sheng jumped left and right, or even hit the snake's most vulnerable part, or used his Bone-Eroding Palm and Thunder God Kick at all, he still couldn't hurt it at all.

"Good good!"

"No wonder it became the guardian beast of Yanyue Temple."

Qi Sheng was amazed, but not panicked. He had already been practicing the 'Zixia True Method' silently. Every time the whip fell heavily, there was always a faint glow of light following it, secretly reducing the power of the demon snake.

At the same time, he continuously took out jade, jade plates, and formation plates from the leopard skin bag at his waist and scattered them in all directions.

The demon snake is slow after all.

After fighting for half a day with no clear winner, he finally realized that his Taoism and magic power had been greatly damaged.

"Hissssss~"

He was furious and frustrated.

With its roar, the six demons that had been lurking in Peach Valley finally appeared.

Qi Sheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the six demons had quite good looks——

The first demon had a strange skeleton, the second demon had a burly figure, the third demon had long limbs, the fourth demon had handsome eyebrows and eyes, the fifth demon had eyes like bright stars, and the sixth demon was full of energy.

At first glance, he doesn't look like a demon.

But looking at their methods, they came out with a gust of gloomy wind and mist, and suddenly the place was filled with gloomy mist, and even their temperaments changed, and they attacked with steel knives.

Nun Jingyin once said that these six demons were martial arts masters. Each of them had extremely high skills in lightness, superb swordsmanship, and great physical strength. They also cooperated with each other impeccably, making them really difficult to deal with.

It turned out that it was these six demons who protected the demon snake, which made the iron centipede unable to suppress the demon snake.

It’s time.

The six demons finally appeared and rushed towards Qi Sheng, looking to kill him. However, just when they were about to chop Qi Sheng's head with their steel knives, they didn't know where the purple cloud started and ended.

It contains secrets and a life and death mechanism.

The outside follows the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, and the entrances and exits are in order, with advances and retreats happening in a chain.

"Fell into a trap!"

The six demons were shocked, realizing that they had stepped into a trap.

Seeing these six demons forming a chain and turning around to retreat, they saw endless purple clouds behind them, forming a formation that stretched across the sky and earth, and with the power of dragons and snakes.

The purple clouds and mists are so thick that they obscure the sun and the moon.

Drifting away in the distance, dark and mysterious.

The heroic spirit reaches the sky and the clouds cover the earth.

Not only in front and behind him, but all directions were filled with purple clouds, and there was no way in or out.

The six demons were in the formation, unable to avoid the waves of purple mist. The big demon used his magic power and drew his sword to chop, but unfortunately he could not break up the invisible and intangible rays of light.

The six demons didn't understand what was going on, so they held hands and rushed around in the formation, hacking around.

After a while, the big demon suddenly screamed -

"My mana?!"

……

Outside Peach Valley.

Wang Qun and others had already put away their flying swords and magic weapons, and now they were all waiting for Qi Sheng to show off his power.

When the six demons rushed out, Ba Jing was shocked at first, but then he saw the purple clouds. Qi Sheng had secretly set up the formation under their noses and under the close attention of the six demons without knowing when.

At this moment, as the six demons arrived, the formation was activated instantly.

To say that this formation is powerful is actually a secret of Yujing.

Wu Shuang exclaimed, "My Yujing Cave has had the 'Purple Cloud Formation Diagram' for over two hundred years, but no one since the fourth generation master has managed to comprehend it. Yet, Sheng'er has the talent to actually complete the formation."

She was happy.

I still remember that Qi Sheng used this formation to defeat the devil Liu Yebai and obtained an intact body.

Now the same old trick is being used again, and the six demons will also suffer.

Madam Qin looked surprised. "Is this the 'Purple Cloud Formation' that the Fourth Patriarch of Yujing, 'Purple Cloud True Man,' used to subdue demons and defend the Way?"

Yujing Cave was once glorious, especially the fourth generation ancestor who was famous in the barbarian territory and a real ancestor-level figure. It is a pity that it has declined to this point.

Now another disciple has comprehended the 'Purple Cloud Formation Diagram', perhaps symbolizing that Yujing Cave is about to rise again.

Everyone looked on.

At this moment, a demonic snake suddenly emerged from the formation.

"Oops!"

Is the formation broken?

Everyone's expression changed.

But he only heard Qi Sheng's words coming from the formation: "The six demons are mine. The evil snake is hard to cure. Master, please quickly bring out the Iron Centipede!"

Outside, upon hearing this, Nun Jingyin hurriedly released the centipede from the box. As soon as the centipede came out of the box, it grew in the wind and became more than ten feet long.

It was the 'Iron Centipede'.

The whole body was shining with black light, illuminating the entire valley in darkness.

When the snake demon saw the centipede flying towards it, it knew it had met a formidable foe, and did not hesitate any longer. It desperately sprayed fire spray and fought with the centipede.

There is a saying that 'one thing subdues another thing'.

After a short fight, the iron centipede bit the golden-scaled snake's seven-inch body, and the snake also bit the centipede's tail, neither refusing to let go.

The golden-scaled snake hadn't been suppressed like this for a long time since it had received the help of the six demons. It was really frustrated and angry. The centipede bit it and it kept sweeping its long tail over the rocks.

Rumble!
The rocks were hit like hail, flying everywhere, which was a spectacular sight.

After such a fierce fight, it was difficult to determine the winner for a long time, but in the end, the Iron Centipede had the upper hand.

At this moment, the formation below suddenly dispersed, revealing Qi Sheng's handsome appearance, and in front of him were six corpses of demons.

The six demons are dead.

Qi Sheng achieved another remarkable feat.
