Chapter 504 The New Master of Xuanhuang Temple

On the low hill, the Three Immortals Hall was completely enveloped in incense smoke.

The Tree Goddess and the Paper Goddess kept their distance, not daring to approach. The aura emanating from the Three Immortals Pavilion was too overwhelming lately, and even though it wasn't directed at the two of them, it still terrified them.

With nothing else to do, the two stopped at the foot of the low hill, on the newly risen Xuanhuang Slope.

Having experienced the previous incident involving the tree-planting goddess's head, the two knew that the withered old man half-planted on the slope must be a new member of the Three Immortals Hall.

The Tree Goddess was very curious about Huang Shigong.

She sensed a similar power in Huang Shigong, a power that originated from the earth and gave rise to all things.

She had sensed this Daoist aura in the Second Master before, but out of reverence, she dared not delve into it.

At this moment, the dynamics of Huang Shigong embracing Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and nurturing the mysterious and profound world deeply moved her.

Just then, Huang Shigong's eyebrows and eyes trembled on Xuanhuang Slope, a sign of his mental recovery. The two immediately prepared to inform Li Wushou.

With a flash of light and shadow, before the two could make a move, Li Wushou had already appeared outside Xuanhuang Slope.

The two men's expressions turned solemn, and they quickly lowered their eyes, bowed, and said:
"Greetings, Second Master!"

The second master has become increasingly stern lately. Although he remains as kind as ever, when the two men look directly into his eyes, they always feel as if their hearts are sinking into an abyss.

This feeling is similar to the sensation when two people accidentally touch the River Styx while exploring the world of divine perception.

Li Wushou waved his hand, then turned his gaze to Huang Shigong.

The other party's originally desolate mind has been slowly revived after being nurtured by Li Wushou's Yin-Yang and Five Elements Daoist Rhyme for the past few days, and is now on the verge of awakening.

Li Wushou looked down at Xuanhuang Slope, his hands forming hand seals, and murmured the method of sealing spirits.

Within the Divine Aperture World, the Xuanhuang Daoist Rhyme surged wildly, forming a vortex on the Xuanhuang Slope, continuously pouring into Huang Shigong's body.

Huang Shigong, half-buried in Xuanhuang Slope, had a phantom image of a large Xuanhuang star appearing between his eyebrows, swallowing the Xuanhuang Daoist rhyme.

Because Huang Shigong used the Xuanhuang Banner to pierce through his own Xuanhuang Great Star-bearing Xuanhuang Platform, he almost completely lost his foundation after the battle at Zhongtian Pass.

The Xuanhuang Star is now in ruins.

As the Xuanhuang Daoist essence continued to flow in, its broken Dharma realm was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although Li Wushou's control over the Xuanhuang Dao Rhyme was not proficient, the quality of his Xuanhuang Dao Rhyme was extremely high, containing Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, bursting with vitality.

Even though Huang Shigong's Daoist aura was far inferior to his!

In order to properly repair Huang Shigong's Xuanhuang Great Star, Li Wushou even crushed two World Treasures and incorporated a large amount of World Power.

In no time, heaven and earth were reshaped, mountains and rivers reappeared, and the Xuanhuang star once again floated between Huang Shigong's eyebrows.

Li Wushou looked at Huang Shigong with a solemn expression and began to speak:
"Now, Huang Shigong is hereby appointed as the abbot of the Xuanhuang Temple under the Three Immortals Hall, in charge of Xuanhuang, to complete the Xuanhuang method."

His words carry the law, and his pronouncements are lawful.

Li Wushou's words of sealing his mind and spirit resounded throughout the world of the divine aperture.

The many divine sparrow spirits that were hovering in mid-air hurriedly knelt down in the void to congratulate the new abbot of Xuanhuang Temple.

The Tree Goddess and the Paper Goddess were filled with envy; this was a giant who held the power of the Dao.

The power of a single spirit is so great, it is many times greater than their impoverished state back then.
The entire world of divine apertures offered their congratulations, and even Xuanhuang was not stingy with his joy, continuously surging towards Xuanhuang Slope.

This was not driven by Li Wushou, but rather by the Xuanhuang Dao itself, as if they also wanted to see this new abbot who was in charge of Xuanhuang.

Just then, the words of sealing the spirit once again emanated from the divine aperture and spread throughout the Three Immortal Mountains.

The talisman masters and others who were discussing taking charge of the Spirit Sealing Path were all shocked upon hearing this, as the reputation of this Spirit Sealing Path was not to be underestimated.

You should know that there is another Xuanhuang Temple Master in this world, and that one is a true Venerable One!
Jin Peng, Luan Xuan, and the others had complicated expressions. They didn't know much about Huang Shigong and the talisman master, but they knew very well that the other party was long dead, but they didn't expect to be saved by the Second Master.

Moreover, the title of "Sealing Spirit" clearly carries high expectations, and the group looked on with envy.

The sound of sealing the spirit was like thunder, causing the heavens and earth within a hundred miles of the Three Immortals Mountain to resonate.

However, it was tightly imprisoned within the Three Immortals Mountain by the Daoist principles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and never revealed to the outside world.

Otherwise, if Li Wushou were to bestow the title of Huang Shigong, it would surely arouse the vigilance and attention of the Xuanhuang Temple Master, and then it would probably cause further complications.

Within the world of divine apertures.

As Li Wushou's sealing of the spirit ended.

Inside the Three Immortals Pavilion, in the hands of the Daoist spirit, primordial chaos converged, and a palm-sized stone tablet slowly took shape.

The inscription above reads three large characters: "Xuanhuang Temple".

With a sudden thought, Li Wushou sent the Xuanhuang Temple Stele through the incense smoke and it landed on Xuanhuang Slope with a loud thud.

Xuanhuang Slope rises abruptly from the ground, transforming into a majestic Xuanhuang Peak, towering high, only about one-third shorter than the low mountain.

A Taoist aura surged from the summit, the rocks roared, the saplings twisted and turned, and a Taoist temple appeared out of thin air.

Outside the Taoist temple, the Xuanhuang flag fluttered in the wind, gathering its dark yellow hue.

A gaunt figure, clad in a long, dark yellow robe, stood beside the dark yellow banner and bowed deeply to Li Wushou, saying:
"Huang Shigong pays his respects to the Second Master and kowtows to express his gratitude for the Second Master's life-saving grace!"

Having said that, he lifted the corner of his robe and respectfully knelt on the ground.

Li Wushou looked at Huang Shigong with great interest.

At this moment, Huang Shigong was clearly still undergoing transformation, and his aura was not yet stable.

However, Li Wushou had spent a great deal of effort, using his own Xuanhuang Daoist Rhyme and Boundary Power to reshape Huang Shigong's foundation. Therefore, it is foreseeable that once the opponent is fully recovered, he will be no weaker than before.

However, at this moment, the opponent's power does not entirely belong to him, and is also within Li Wushou's control.

This is the third person, besides the Tree Goddess and the Paper Goddess, to use the Spirit Sealing Technique on Li Wushou.

Unlike the previous two, who needed Li Wushou to repay them, Li Wushou clearly placed high hopes on Huang Shigong. And Huang Shigong, as the master of Xuanhuang Temple, did not disappoint Li Wushou.

With the initial sealing of the spirit completed, all the secret techniques of the Xuanhuang Temple were reflected in his mind.

Even the core method that leads directly to the Great Dao of Profound Yellow is the same. With a thought, Li Wushou's physical meridians moved at will, and in an instant, his own Profound Yellow Dao essence became even more refined.

But then Li Wushou dispersed his meridians. This great harvest still had many benefits for Li Wushou to digest, which would surely push his physical body to a higher level.

It's not too late to try it after you've fully digested it!

Li Wushou waved to Huang Shigong and gave the order:

"From now on, you will be the abbot of the Xuanhuang Temple of the Three Immortals Hall. I will use Yin and Yang and the Five Elements to recreate Xuanhuang to help you cultivate. I hope you will recover soon and make further progress in the Xuanhuang Way."

Huang Shigong's expression turned solemn, and he bowed again, saying:
"Thank you for your kindness, Second Master!"

Li Wushou nodded slightly.

With a thought, the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements of Xuanhuang Peak gathered together and began to nurture Xuanhuang.

Just as he was about to say something more, his expression suddenly shifted slightly.

Then, a streak of dark yellow light flew rapidly from the low hill beside them and landed in front of the Xuanhuang Temple in the blink of an eye.

Upon closer inspection, Huang Shigong recognized the object as the Xuanhuang Platform, the sacred artifact he had previously used to govern the Xuanhuang Temple.

This is?

Some people looked up at Li Wushou with confusion.

Li Wushou glanced at Aishan and understood immediately.

With a flick of his finger, he pointed towards the Xuanhuang Platform. The platform shimmered with light and shadow, transforming into a plaque inscribed with "Xuanhuang Temple," which hung above the entrance of the Taoist temple.

In an instant, the Daoist aura within Xuanhuang Peak became even more intense.

Only then did Li Wushou slowly say:

"This is a Dao artifact bestowed upon you by the master of the Three Immortals Hall. The original imprints on it have been washed away, and the Dao essence within can accelerate your comprehension of the Mysterious Yellow."

Huang Shigong was visibly moved and began to kowtow to the low mountain.

"Huang Shigong thanks you, sir!"

Just as Li Wushou was about to lift Huang Shigong up, a streak of light flew out from the Three Immortals Pavilion.

Unlike the previous primordial yellow light, this stream of light carried a hint of blood.

Before the light could even get close to the Xuanhuang Taoist Temple, an impatient voice resounded throughout Xuanhuang Peak.

"I am Chen Gou'er, the third master of the Three Immortals Pavilion. This is the flesh and blood I bestow upon you. Quickly thank me!"

Huang Shigong's expression froze for a moment, and the blood had already fallen into the space between his eyebrows.

A piece of flesh the size of a fingernail wriggled and burrowed into Huang Shigong's body.

Li Wushou raised an eyebrow, about to reprimand him.

But then, atop Huang Shigong's head, Chen Gou'er, naked from the waist down, stood smugly with his hands on his hips, looking back at Li Wushou and saying:

"This meat was freshly cut by Master Dog; it won't be eaten by this old man. But merging into his body can help his flesh and blood evolve."

After saying that, as if to show off, Chen Gou'er immediately began to manipulate Huang Shigong's flesh and blood.

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou focused his gaze.

Sure enough, Huang Shigong's flesh and blood began to writhe rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into the appearance of Chen Gou'er.

Their appearance, physical features, and even their physical presence are virtually identical.

It's just a bit unseemly, because they're also naked.

Huang Shigong glanced at the Tree Goddess and the Paper Goddess without thinking. Even though he had already seen through their superficial appearances, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at this moment.

After coughing a few times, he put the yellow robe back on.

Huang Shigong bowed to Chen Gou'er and thanked him, saying:

"Thank you for the generous gift, Third Master!"

These words were sincere and heartfelt. Chen Gou'er laughed heartily after hearing them and praised Huang Shigong for his promising future.

Huang Shigong had to be careful to accompany him, lest he accidentally reveal his bare bottom again.

Li Wushou looked at Chen Gou'er thoughtfully.

When the old beggar suppressed many items this time, the first one he chose was the Sacred Heart, which resembled a tumor.

On the one hand, Chen Gou'er was so impatient that if he wasn't given something to eat soon, he would go on strike!

On the other hand, the old beggar seemed quite at ease with Chen Gou'er's devouring. He roughly cleansed the mark in the middle to ensure that it would not rebel, and then handed it over to Chen Gou'er directly.

Seeing that Chen Gou'er wanted to swallow it whole, Li Wushou quickly used the essence of the Sparrow Lord's flesh and blood that he had shared with him to exchange some flesh and blood tumors from Chen Gou'er, in order to enrich his own intangible golden core.

This Sacred Heart clearly came from a Venerable of the Blood and Flesh Dao, and it contained a great deal of blood and flesh, so Li Wushou naturally wouldn't miss it.

However, in just over a day, Chen Gou'er had already devoured it all?
Moreover, with the absorption of the Heart of the Sacred Tumor, Chen Gou'er's flesh and blood path seems to have become much stronger.

That's outrageous!

After their playful fight, Chen Gou'er returned to the Three Immortals Pavilion.

On the one hand, the old beggar's suppression and refining process is not yet complete, and with Chen Gou'er's help, a lot of effort can be saved.

On the other hand, Li Wushou's sealing of spirits is not yet over.
