A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

"Before the creation of this world, I lost something here, which was acquired by the Heavenly Dao and multiplied into countless forms. You are one of them. Today, I have come to retrieve this old thing."

The eldest child frowned deeply: "What old things? What cause of their creation? I don't understand! I only know that Grandpa has been captured by a demon, and I have to go save him! If you stop me, you are my enemy!"

The eldest child said, "I'm just a reckless guy, how am I supposed to understand all this?"

Lin Xiu: "......"

Lin Xiu glanced at the other gourds on the vine, thinking that he should not give up talking to the eldest gourd, but communicate with the most intelligent second and sixth gourds.

In the end, Lin Xiu gave up on this idea because... at this point, he had reached a point where he could decide the fate of the world with a single word.

What Calabash Brothers? He only saw a human-shaped spinning top.

Disobeying me? Then give me a good beating!

.......

Of course, Lin Xiu has always been a reasonable person. Before giving Da Wa a good beating, Lin Xiu gave a final announcement.

“Huluwa, saving your grandfather is your mission, and retrieving the old items is my purpose. These two things do not conflict.”

“I will not stop you from saving your grandfather, and I may even lend you a hand. But afterwards, you must return to your original source and give the item back to its rightful owner.”

"No way!" the eldest child said firmly.

"Even if what you're saying is true, I can't go with you! I still have to save Grandpa, protect my brothers, and safeguard this land! It's my responsibility!"

“Responsibility…” Lin Xiu gently shook his head.

"Fine. It seems that reasoning with them won't work."

“Perfect, if reasoning doesn’t work, I also know a little bit about martial arts.”

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiu's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Da Wa's pupils contracted, and he instinctively leaped backward, his body swelling to a three-zhang giant as he punched the empty space beside him.

"boom!"

Lin Xiu's figure happened to appear there. He didn't take it head-on, but simply raised his hand and threw out a divine mountain!

[Embracing the Mountain Seal!]

The shadow of the sacred mountain is incredibly solid, not only the shape and power of the ordinary mountain seal, but also incorporating the mountain range of Mount Tai, the original mountain range of Mount Zi, and the mountain range and great Dao of the 100 sacred peaks of Tai Xuan!

The moment it was printed, it was as if an ancient divine mountain had descended and suppressed all directions!

Fists collided with a deafening explosion! The shockwave rippled and the ground cracked!

Da Wa felt an unparalleled force coming from him, and his three-zhang-tall body was shaken back repeatedly, leaving deep footprints on the ground with each step.

"What incredible strength!"

The eldest son was shocked. He was born with superhuman strength, capable of moving mountains and filling seas, yet his power was suppressed.

"big!"

"Make it bigger!"

Da Wa roared, his body swelled up again, transforming into a ten-zhang giant. He raised his foot and stomped down on Lin Xiu with great force, as if a small mountain was pressing down on him!

Lin Xiu remained expressionless, his footwork mysterious as he unleashed the "Nine Dragons Crossing Technique," his figure as elusive as a ghost.

The moment the giant's foot landed, Lin Xiu had already flashed to its ankle and raised his hand to deliver another "Mountain Embrace Seal"!

This time, the Mountain-Embracing Seal solidified even more, carrying an aura that could suppress all things, and slammed solidly into the eldest child's ankle!

It is well known that giant creatures have weak legs!

"Boom!"

The eldest child cried out in pain, his ten-foot-tall body losing its balance, and he fell backward with a crash, crushing half of the bamboo forest.

It's just that Da Wa didn't have paronychia; otherwise, this blow would have been enough to make Da Wa faint from the pain!

......

The eldest child struggled to get up, but Lin Xiu had already stepped into the air and stood above him!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three consecutive "Mountain Embrace Seals" were applied to Da Wa's shoulders and forehead, respectively.

The eldest son roared repeatedly, struggling fiercely, his body surging with crimson light, but he could not break free from the mountain's imposing shape and power that seemed to suppress heaven and earth.

In the end, he was forcibly pressed back to the size of a normal person! His body was bound by the Daoist chains of the Embracing Mountain Seal, and he could not move!

"You... what kind of sorcery are you using!" Da Wa's face flushed red as he glared at Lin Xiu.

"It is not sorcery, but a righteous supernatural power."

Lin Xiu raised his hand, and the Five Elements Immortal Mountain "Tai Mountain" flew out from the Sea of ​​Wheels, transforming into a majestic mountain peak that firmly pressed down on Da Wa, leaving only his head exposed.

"Calm down here for a moment, I'll go buy you an orange."

After saying that, Lin Xiu stopped looking at Da Wa and turned to walk towards the gourd vine.

Chapter 185 In the Demon-Slaying Mountain, Gathering the Immortal Gourd

"Calm down here for a moment, I'll go buy you an orange."

After saying that, Lin Xiu stopped looking at Da Wa and turned to walk towards the gourd vine.

The remaining six gourds on the vine fell silent, for they had clearly witnessed the battle. Their eldest brother, who was so powerful, was suppressed by this person in just a few moves. There was something truly terrifying about this!

"Now, we can have a proper talk."

Lin Xiu looked at the remaining six gourds and gave the conditions he had prepared beforehand.

“I want to take back what originally belonged to me, but since those things are now in your possession, I am not one to forcibly seize them.”

"I can help you rescue your grandfather, suppress the demon, and settle your obsessions and responsibilities. After it's done, you must voluntarily return. What do you say?"

After a moment of silence, the orange gourd spoke first:

"You...you can really save Grandpa? You can defeat those demons?"

"Easy as pie," Lin Xiu replied decisively.

"Although this realm has spiritual energy to nurture medicines, no true great demons have been born. Suppressing them is a piece of cake for me." As he said this, Lin Xiu couldn't help but glance at the sky.

More than the so-called Calabash Brothers, he cared about the "gods and immortals" of this world.

This was the first genuine world he had ever experienced where gods and immortals existed. If he could study their life forms, it would certainly be of great benefit to his own future endeavors.

.......

Seeing Lin Xiu's firm attitude and that the eldest brother was suppressed and unable to move, the unborn Calabash Brothers started discussing among themselves and quickly came to a conclusion.

"Okay, we agree."

"However, you must first rescue Grandpa and suppress the demon." It was the second brother who spoke. When the eldest brother was suppressed, the second brother was the eldest of the Calabash Brothers.

"Okay, it's a deal."

Lin Xiu nodded. With his strength, he wasn't afraid they would go back on their word. He was only doing this to ensure he had a clear conscience. After all, even if the Calabash Brothers were fierce, they weren't really bad people.

The next second, Lin Xiu raised his hand and took out a small jade bottle from his Sea of ​​Wheels. The bottle contained a pool of crystal-clear liquid that exuded rich vitality. It was the divine spring of the desolate ancient forbidden land.

Lin Xiu flicked his finger, and several drops of divine spring water flew out, accurately disappearing into the gourd vines of the six gourds and the roots that were planted in the ground.

In an instant, the gourd shone brightly, its life force surged, and its growth rate accelerated visibly.

"This is a divine spring that can help you mature faster and solidify your foundation. By the time I rescue your grandfather, you should be almost ready to mature."

"Once you have matured, you may return to the Heavenly Realm and leave the remaining gourd bodies to me. I have a great use for them."

The seven Calabash Brothers: "........."

They had to admit that the man in front of them was incredibly shrewd, even having made arrangements for the treasure gourds they had left behind after their souls returned.

However, if they can truly accomplish their mission, they have no objections.

.......

Leaving the divine spring to nourish the gourd, Lin Xiu didn't linger any longer. His figure transformed into a stream of light and flew towards the demon cave pointed out by the gourd boy.

Lin Xiu did not conceal his aura; instead, he intentionally released a trace of pressure, and wherever he passed, the mountains and forests became silent, and birds and beasts hibernated.

Before long, a dark and gloomy cave with jagged rocks appeared before them. Demon soldiers guarded the entrance, and the sound of howling wind could be faintly heard from inside.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Lin Xiu locked onto a white-haired old man bound deep inside the cave, who was none other than the grandfather of the Calabash Brothers.

"That saves us the trouble of finding our way."

With a thought, Lin Xiu activated the power of the five elements within his body. Without moving, his body began to radiate dazzling golden light!

Emperor Armor, Combine!

In an instant, a vast and majestic aura surged from Lin Xiu's body, far surpassing any other living being in this world!

As the armor was donned, Lin Xiu's physique began to expand rapidly!

Ten zhang, a hundred zhang, a thousand zhang... In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a towering golden giant, taller than the entire Demon Mountain!

"Today, I, the Venerable One, will level this demon cave!"

Lin Xiu's voice boomed like thunder, echoing through the mountains. The next second, he raised his massive, mountain-like foot, aimed precisely at the demon cave, and stomped down without hesitation!

"boom!"

In an instant! The earth shook violently! The mountains and rivers collapsed!

With one kick, half of the demon cave, along with the mountain above, collapsed simultaneously!

Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, and gravel rained down.

However, Lin Xiu controlled the force of his kick perfectly. Only the main body of the demon cave and the surrounding rocks collapsed. The smaller side cave, which imprisoned Grandpa Gourd, remained intact, except for the huge rock that had been shaken open to seal the entrance.

Inside the cave, Grandpa Gourd, bound to a stone pillar, stared in disbelief.

Looking at the suddenly appearing "skylight" and the golden giant outside the window that blocked out the sky, he originally thought it would be the Calabash Brothers coming to save him. He didn't expect it to be a golden mighty mountain god.

Could it be that these demons committed some heinous crime that prompted the Jade Emperor to take action and directly dispatch his gods?

With Grandpa Gourd's knowledge, this was the only possibility he could think of.

After all, he was just an ordinary old man; it was already quite remarkable that he had heard of the Jade Emperor from storytelling performances.
