Although the Shangqing disciples are not inseparable from talismans, those who have talismans with them are the most feared.

Although he was strolling in the middle of the night, Yang Ming still hung his talisman bag on his belt.

Without even looking down, Yang Ming skillfully took out the talisman he wanted from the talisman bag which had several layers of interlayers and contained a wide variety of talismans with different functions.

"When the Supreme One preaches, the golden bell rings with jade sound; all filth hides in the nine lands, and all demons lie in wait in the forest; the heavenly flowers scatter the Dharma rain, and the Dharma drum shakes the layers of confusion; the gods chant well, and the golden boy dances with the jade harp; I wish to pour out the eight rays of light to illuminate the heart of refuge; I scratch the great Dharma manuscript, and serve the five clouds deep. Hurry up and obey the command."

Yang Ming chanted the spell with a peculiar tone, like a complaint or a song. He swept out the yellow talisman in his hand, which turned into a stream of clean and clear air, sweeping away the unclean qi within ten feet around his body.

Altar purification mantra, altar purification talisman.

It was originally a spell used by Taoist immortals to remove impurities before drawing talismans during rituals in order to increase the chances of success.

However, if its ability is exerted to the extreme, it can also interfere with the magic formation of the strange magician. This is a magical skill that only the master who is adept at making talismans can perform.

Unfortunately, Yang Ming guessed wrongly from the beginning about what magic Hu Xiuwu had used, and his brilliant plan to find the right remedy for the disease turned into a useless one.

"This is?"

After the clear air aroused by the altar purification talisman cleared away the gloomy poisonous fog around it, it did not return to the outside of the ancestral temple as Yang Ming had expected. Instead, it revealed the huge monster hidden in the fog.

A square, towering, majestic, and solemn ancient city appeared in front of Yang Ming. It was rare to find it in the world since the advent of artillery fire.

When the Black City appeared, it was as shocking as a giant whale emerging from the deep sea.

"Fengdu City!?"

Yang Ming was standing in front of the city gate at this time, but he was not even one-tenth of the height of the city gate. He looked up at the wide city gate plaque and exclaimed in surprise.

But before he could figure out the truth, thick fog came again like a tide, blocking his vision. When the fog dissipated, he was inside the hall again.

Venus hung in the sky above the palace, making the interior as bright as noon, clean and bright. The interior of the palace was spacious, and birds and horses could move freely without feeling cramped.

Yang Ming was in the middle of it, as if he had arrived at Guanghan Lingxiao, the underworld, but he was staring ahead in a daze.

Because this magnificent palace is just above the nine-story imperial steps, behind the long desk, with his hand on the black book and the majestic and mysterious shadow of the emperor embellishing it, anyone who enters the palace will be unconsciously distracted by the emperor who occupies a high position.

As long as one saw the black imperial robe engraved with the twelve chapter patterns, one would know the emperor's identity from the bottom of his heart.

The Lord of the underworld, Emperor of Beiyin Fengdu.

Although he knew that there were no gods in this world as mentioned in the novels, Yang Ming still felt a sense of horror as if Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty had dreamed of entering the underworld.

After the emperor's trial, a clear voice came down:

"Uncle Master, can you please give me the True Spiritual Position Map now?"

Yang Ming, who was already having trouble thinking normally, was even more surprised because he had just heard this voice.

"Who are you···"

The golden star went out, Yang Ming's eyes went dark, and he blinked subconsciously.

Tap!

The sound of a flashlight falling to the ground startled Yang Ming.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Hu Xiuwu standing straight in front of him, as if he had never moved, and the ashes on the red incense stick on the altar had just fallen into the incense burner.

Yang Ming turned up the soles of his shoes. The dark dirt on his cloth shoes told him his experience, which was true.

Yang Ming is an old man in his seventies, and he usually thinks he has seen most of the things in the world, but what he encountered in just a short moment was beyond his imagination.

After a long while, Yang Ming finally came to his senses and laughed dryly: "Haha, so that's how it is. Twelve years ago, it was you who caused the abnormal movement of the True Spirit Position Chart."

"So, these were all planned by our ancestors long ago. It's a pity that we, the descendants of the later generations, are completely ignorant. Alas, it's because we, the descendants, are unworthy and have lost too many things."

"Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts, hey, no wonder the last few orders of Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts are so difficult to practice, they are not prepared for us mortals, they are moves that are close to gods."

Yang Ming felt a little lonely at first, but then he became excited and proud of it.

Although one will become more active if one is too quiet, there are always some restless people among the Shangqing otakus who will leave their names in history.

However, Yang Ming was still impressed by the master's generosity in building the underworld and creating magical skills.

Compared with the great generosity of the founder, the Jiashen Rebellion was nothing.

Yang Ming was distracted for a moment and forgot his previous attitude of regarding the Jiashen Rebellion as a scourge and a beast, and was extremely taboo about it.

Chapter 306: The True Spirit Position Chart of the Mysterious Spirit Treasure

Lost my composure.

It is really wrong to behave too inappropriately in front of the younger generation without realizing it.

After recovering from his shock, Yang Ming's face suddenly turned red. He coughed a few times and said seriously, "Since the ancestors have already made a plan, I will follow their instructions."

"Come with me to get the True Spirit Position Chart."

Hu Xiuwu thanked him, "Thank you, uncle master, for your help."

Then he comforted her, "I will not take all seven volumes of the True Spirit Position Chart. I only want to take the seventh volume, the Ghost and God Volume."

Yang Ming heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The True Spiritual Karma Map is too important to Shangqing.

The full name of the True Spirit's Position Chart is Dongxuan Lingbao True Spirit's Position Chart. This book was written by Tao Hongjing, the prime minister in the mountains. The book divided the gods and immortals circulating at that time into seven levels. It was the first systematic ranking of the gods and immortals circulating in the world.

The first one is Yuanshi Tianzun.

Of course, when compiling the book, Shangqing also had its own agenda. For example, it ranked its own ancestor, Wei Huacun, the first-generation ancestor of Shangqing who had already ascended to heaven, and his wife, as the second-class immortals, while it ranked Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of Tianshi Dao, with whom it had a bad relationship at the time, as the fourth class, that is, below the ancestor of Shangqing.

However, this was Shangqing's private agenda. Tao Hongjing's ultimate goal in compiling "The Chart of the True Spirit's Position and Career" was to gain faith.

As the first ranking chart of gods, all the gods registered at that time were locked up by the Shangqing Sect.

As long as they have the True Spiritual Position Map in hand, the people of Shangqing Sect can use the power of these gods at will and ask the gods to possess them.

That is why Yang Ming attached so much importance to the True Spirit Position Chart, which represents the foundation of the Shangqing God-summoning magic.

No flower can stay in bloom forever, no force can remain prosperous forever. After Tao Hongjing, Yuan Tiangang and other masters ascended to heaven one after another, the Shangqing sect was in a period of lack of successors.

When internal Taoist forces such as Wudang and Qingcheng rose and various Taoist thoughts contended with each other, Shangqing lost its leading position in Taoism.

When new beliefs such as Sun Wukong, Nezha, Yang Jian, and Zhenwu Emperor appeared, Shangqing no longer had the strength to incorporate them into its system despite the pressure from the whole world.

With the ownerless resources, the magic spells of faith such as divine masks, horse riding, lion dancing, etc. came into being.

Yang Ming led Hu Xiuwu along the corridor and headed towards the museum where the Four Treasures of Maoshan were on display.

That’s right, the true spiritual realm map is placed in that museum. Not only that, the four treasures of Maoshan hidden in the museum are also genuine.

Yang Ming is also an old thief. Anyway, the ownership of the Four Treasures of Maoshan belongs to Shangqing. It doesn't matter where he puts them. Can he find a secret corner and let his disciples guard them day and night?

Isn't that more conspicuous.

If placed in a museum, it will not only be equipped with various anti-theft and monitoring equipment, but true disciples can also blend in with the group of guides and security guards to guard secretly, providing double insurance.

Hu Xiuwu, who was following Yang Ming, did not find it strange. After all, he had lived in the mountains for several years and had come back in the past two years. He actually knew where the True Spirit Position Map was stored. If he wanted, he could just go and get it.

But taking things without asking is stealing. Maoshan is his home, and it is always bad to steal things from home.

"Headmaster."

The museum is guarded 24 hours a day. When Yang Ming and Hu Xiuwu swiped their cards to enter the museum, the Shangqing disciples on duty saw them through the surveillance camera and came over to say hello.

Yang Ming nodded, but did not say much to them. The Jiashen Rebellion had caused so many people to be wary, and this matter involved the establishment of the underworld. Once the news leaked out, it would probably immediately set off a new catastrophe in the entire Yiren world.

And by then, even Naduotong may not stand on their side.

Yang Ming asked the other confused disciples to leave, and he led Hu Xiuwu to the safe alone.

Like any other museum, most of the items in the display cases outside are replicas, while the real items are kept in the safe.

If Yang Ming was not the head of Shangqing Sect, if anyone else wanted to go to the treasury where Maoshan’s treasures were stored in the middle of the night, with a stranger next to him, the Shangqing Sect members would not let him go so easily.

The Maoshan Museum does not have many collections, so it does not cover a large area. After Yang Ming led Hu Xiuwu through several doors with signs prohibiting tourists from entering, they arrived at the entrance of the treasure house.

The treasure house is not only locked with a combination lock and a heavy padlock, but also has a circle of Shangqing runes drawn on it.

Yang Ming whispered to Hu Xiuwu, "Wait here, I'll be back soon."

Only the headmaster and elders of Shangqing can enter the treasury. Even Yang Ming cannot disobey this rule. He is the headmaster of Shangqing, but that does not mean he can trample on the rules of Shangqing at will.

If he, as the head sect leader, takes the lead in breaking the rules, then what order will there be in Shangqing?

After Hu Xiuwu agreed, Yang Ming entered the treasury alone and quickly took out the seventh volume of the True Spirit Position Map that Hu Xiuwu wanted.

It is also the most unique volume. This volume represents the volume of ghosts and gods, and it records the gods and ghosts of the underworld.

Hu Xiuwu took the scroll with both hands, and after he got it in his hand, it responded to him, as if it had been waiting for him for a long time.

He opened the scroll and spontaneously branded his name next to the name of the Great Emperor Beiyin Fengdu, who was ranked first among all the ghosts and gods in the world.

Without any ceremony, Hu Xiuwu had become the owner of the Scroll of Ghosts and Gods.

Sure enough ×2

The first one was indeed Yang Ming, stroking his beard and sighing, and the second one was indeed Hu Xiuwu, who verified his guess after mastering the Ghost and God Scroll and understanding its functions.

In recent years, Hu Xiuwu has never given up his exploration of Luo Fengtian. He traveled all over Fengdu City and found traces of Yuan Tiangang there. He made several small changes in the Chang'an City reproduced by Li Chunfeng.

The residences of many prominent families in Fengdu were transformed into caves for ghosts and gods.

The Five Ghost Emperors all have their own special mansions, but they are empty inside, waiting for their masters to arrive.

But the Five Ghost Emperors are just a legend, and these mansions are left to someone.

Hu Xiuwu thought of himself and the True Spirit Position Map. He wanted to take the opportunity of the Luotian Grand Ceremony to return to Shangqing, so he asked for the True Spirit Position Map to find out more.

The Ghost and God Scroll that Yuan Tiangang had re-sacrificed could not only allow people to invite gods to possess them, but when used in conjunction with Luo Fengtian, it could also grant extraordinary people godhood, without having to worry about the erosion of faith in all living beings.

However, once he accepted the throne, he would become Hu Xiuwu's subordinate, and his life and death would be in his hands.

Luo Fengtian can not only filter out the poison from the incense, but also pass the poison from the incense to him through the deity, turning him into a puppet of faith.

Hu Xiuwu weighed the scroll in his hand and sighed:

This is not a catalog of immortal genealogy at all; it is a roll of the Gods.

Hu Xiuwu looked at Yang Ming who was looking at him curiously and said with a smile: "Uncle Master, would you like to be on the list?"
