Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 772 - 693: Trim both ends to make a bamboo cane!

"Le'er."

Lu Qingfeng turned his head to call for Ao Le and explained to Huang Mei's disciple, "This is my wife Ao Le. A few days ago, I discovered some evil demons causing trouble, used the Great Method to defeat it, and obtained a Spiritual Treasure that contained the corpses of several Immortal Gods. I wonder, my Fellow Daoist, what did your old friends look like?"

There are over one thousand four hundred Immortal God graves in the Divine Tomb.

It wasn't worth getting upset with Huang Mei's disciple over just a few Immortal God corpses.

Overjoyed to hear this, Huang Mei's disciple quickly described them.

It turned out they were four weasels that had attained Dao and became major demons, all with the cultivation of Earth Immortals.

"I'll take a look."

Ao Le took out the Divine Tomb to inspect and, among the one thousand four hundred plus Immortal God graves, indeed found four weasel spirits buried together, their graves adjoined.

The tombstones also had descriptions of their lives and causes of death.

Originally, Huang Mei's disciple claimed a mountain for his kingdom, establishing the Little Leiyin Temple in Little Western Heaven, gathering many demons of his kind through calls and invitations.

Among them, the four closest to Huang Mei's disciple were brothers from the same mother.

At that time, they blocked the westward traveling party. With East Buddha Ancestor's protection, Huang Mei's disciple faced no disasters or difficulties. But the rest of his underlings, the lesser demons and Demon Generals, were all slaughtered by the Great Saint in a fit of rage.

Huang Mei's disciple was taken away by East Buddha Ancestor in a rush, leaving the corpses of his brothers behind, which by chance were collected by Qin Zhen passing through and buried in the Divine Tomb.

He had been searching for these years, not willing to let the bodies of his four brothers be desecrated.

But since the Divine Tomb had an owner and the Heavenly Mechanism shielded it, he couldn't find them.

This time the Spiritual Treasure changed hands, a leak in the Heavenly Mechanism occurred, and he finally decided to ask the Bodhisattva for their whereabouts.

Seeing Ao Le taking the brothers' corpses out of the Spiritual Treasure.

"Thank you, Daoist Brother, thank you Fellow Daoist!"

Yellow Eyebrow Ancestor hurriedly thanked both Lu Qingfeng and his wife, looking at the corpses, and felt a surge of sorrow for a moment.

Lu Qingfeng watched.

Hearing Ao Le's telepathic recount, he too was filled with a sense of lament.

Yellow Eyebrow Ancestor, having obtained his brothers' corpses, did not stay around any longer and bid farewell to Lu Qingfeng and his wife before vanishing into the distance.

Watching Huang Mei's disciple leave.

Lu Qingfeng observed the surroundings, the vastness of space in all directions, and shook his head, "This place is no good for a long stay!"

Huang Mei didn't have enough Dao ability to detect the past intertwining of space-time with Lu Qingfeng.

But East Buddha Ancestor was no pushover.

Once Huang Mei's disciple returned to Western Heaven and met East Buddha Ancestor, he would surely mention this incident, potentially exposing hidden details.

Lu Qingfeng didn't dare to hesitate.

Fortunately, the Star Sea Realm was already under his control. Lu Qingfeng then used his Great Divine Power and Mana to fuse the two worlds, the starry sky, and the land into one.

He renamed it 'Guangyuan Realm'.

Above there was the Celestial Cycle Star Formation, and below he laid out the Dutian Divine Slaughter Great Array with twelve Du Tian Netherworld King Flags.

With a wave of his hand, he could control the heavens.

Another wave, he commanded the earth.

Thus.

The world was entirely within Lu Qingfeng's control.

He then had Ao Le lift the East Emperor Bell to cover up part of the world, then cast it out, distancing it from this void.

In the thirty-six stratagems.

Retreat is the best.

Celestial Cycle Stars and Dutian Divine Slaughter were both ancient fierce formations, and with both Great Arrays laid out and the top-grade Spiritual Treasure 'East Emperor Bell' suppressing them, even the likes of East Buddha Ancestor and Guanyin would find it hard to divine their location.

Only then did he feel at peace.

But the 'East Emperor Bell' had a time limit of three thousand years.

"We must quickly raise our cultivation!"

Thinking of East Buddha Ancestor and South Sea Guanyin, such top figures of Primordial times, even Lu Qingfeng felt a shadow in his heart, sensing immense pressure.

He dared not underestimate it.

He dared not delay.

Right from the 'Divine Tomb,' he found another Immortal God Corpse and applied the 'Carefree Dream Road' Great Method to enter the Time-Space Fragment.

This time, Lu Qingfeng didn't dare to bring Ao Le.

Firstly, Ao Le's cultivation was still not high; her cultivation had greatly improved recently and still needed further consolidation.

Secondly, the East Emperor Bell was not yet perfected in Refining; it needed Ao Le to control it and suppress the 'Guangyuan Realm.'

Thus.

Lu Qingfeng set off alone.

...

Nan Zhanbu Continent.

Near the West Sea, there was a mountain called Gold and Silver Mountain.

Atop the mountain, a demon named the Gold and Silver Kings was said to be a Gold and Silver Rat that had attained Dao, both Divine Skills and martial abilities extraordinary. He howled like the wind while ruling over the Gold and Silver Mountain, gathering thousands of lesser demons under him.

This day.

Deep in the mountain forest, a shadowy figure sprang into the mountain in bold leaps.

From a distance, it looked like a person in ragged clothing, inappropriate as if a refugee. But upon closer inspection, it was clear that this was not a refugee but a monkey who had stolen clothes from someone, wearing them in human fashion.

As it made its way through the woods, it was scraped by thorns and branches until the clothes were tattered.

It appeared awkward yet comical.

The monkey walked and jumped.

Rarely climbing, it mostly walked upright as humans do; except for its fur, it was hardly distinguishable from a person.

Perhaps tired from walking.

Or maybe it was the heat of the sun.

The monkey stopped in a bamboo grove, sitting down on the ground, panting heavily.

After a good rest.

Waiting for the sun to go down and the heat to subside, the monkey stood up, ready to leave the bamboo grove. But before leaving, it paused, approaching a Green Bamboo stalk.

It circled around, sizing it up.

Gesticulating with its hands.

All of a sudden, its eyes brightened, and it stepped forward a few paces.

Whoosh!

No matter how the Green Bamboo swayed and its leaves fell, it could not escape its fate. The unruly monkey grabbed it, yanked it out of the ground, and, in no time, chopped off the top and bottom, peeled off the branches, and fashioned a bamboo cane about four feet long.

Thud!

Thud! Thud!

The monkey gripped the bamboo cane, thumping it on the ground, grinning from ear to ear.

Holding the cane, it hopped and skipped, continuing on its way.

...

"Where did this monkey come from in Gold and Silver Mountain? Anywhere else would have been fine to go, but it had to come to Gold and Silver Mountain. Poor foolish monkey will suffer!"
