Ascension Through Generations

Seeing the master's gaze cast here, and sensing the increasingly powerful aura and pressure, the gauze woman couldn't help but tremble, with a hint of fear in her dark eyes.

In an instant, a black mist rose up from her body, swallowing up several feet of her body. There were ghostly figures in the mist, twisting and struggling.

Woohoo~

Waves of cries of ghosts and howls of wolves came out from the ghost mist, constantly echoing in the ruined temple.

As soon as he heard the ghost roar, Jiang Xiaowei felt as if countless steel nails were piercing into his brain at the same time and stirring vigorously, causing him to have a splitting headache, dizziness, vision blackening, and feeling faint.

The performance of the other Red Dragon Riders was even worse than him. They only lasted a few breaths before throwing away their swords and guns and rolling on the ground holding their heads.

Bang bang bang!

As soon as the ghost roared, countless gray-haired rats immediately collapsed to the ground, bleeding to death from all their orifices. Then, the rats' heads suddenly exploded one by one, their brains splattered everywhere, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

Zhizhi!

The black-haired demon rat was very clever. Taking advantage of the ghostly roar, it kicked the ground hard with its four paws and turned into a black light with a scraping sound. It disappeared into the night and fled into the wilderness at high speed.

Who said that monsters are all brainless and stupid? The black-haired monster rat can successfully grow into a second-level monster in the core area of ​​​​the human race. Strength is not important. The most important thing is that it is timid and cunning, and its life-saving ability is first-rate.

When Zhao Sheng showed his strength, he immediately realized that he had offended someone he shouldn't have provoked tonight, and while the ghost cultivator was acting aggressively, it would wait until later if it didn't escape now.

snort!

Zhao Sheng looked at the expanding ghost mist quietly and suddenly snorted coldly.

In an instant, the Karma Fire Red Lotus in mid-air bloomed with a large dazzling light, and billions of sparks burst out from the red lotus in an instant, like a large meteor shower, which instantly "filled" the space of a hundred feet in radius.

The ghost mist was hit by countless sparks, and it immediately let out a shrill scream. The mist was quickly burned, and the scope quickly shrunk. Only the ghosts were quickly ignited by the karma fire, and struggled but were burned into wisps of black. cigarette.

Yehuo is the nemesis of ghosts and demons, and the female ghost cultivator has been unlucky for eight lifetimes when she met Zhao Sheng.

"Humph, I still want to escape!"

Zhao Sheng's eyes narrowed, his mind moved slightly, and he saw the Karma Red Lotus shooting out huge flame lotuses in an instant.

These flaming lotus flowers shot out in all directions, sealing off the entire ruined temple in the blink of an eye, and then shot out thousands of rays of fire between each other. The fire lights were intertwined and intertwined, forming an airtight fire net in an instant.

"Senior, senior, spare your life!"

In the corner of the ruined temple, a faint ghost figure suddenly appeared in front of the light net. Then a charming face appeared on the ghost figure's face, and it begged Zhao Sheng with a crying voice.

Zhao Sheng showed no pity for the beauty. He turned his hand over and found a dark jar in his hand.

"receive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fire net suddenly shrank a thousand times, binding the female ghost cultivator.

Zizzi!

The female ghost cultivator still wanted to resist, but as soon as the ghost body touched the fire net, it was burned by the karma fire, and wisps of black smoke rose up all over her body.

"Senior, I know a big woo woo!"

Before he finished speaking, the fire net wrapped around the female ghost, suddenly turned into a line of fire, and shot into the ghost-sealing altar in an instant.

After pasting two sealing talismans on the mouth of the altar, Zhao Sheng put the jar away and then turned to look outside the temple.

At this moment, on a wasteland more than ten feet away from the temple gate, two streams of light, black and white, were chasing each other in a circle at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and they collided frequently.

With every collision, strong demonic energy would burst out, overturning large areas of soil, and pits would increase rapidly. The wasteland within a radius of several miles was swept away by the aftermath of the demonic energy from the two demonic rats, and the soil was completely destroyed.

The scene of two demonic rats fighting and chasing each other was very weird. There was very little movement during the fight. Apart from the thud of mud splashing to the ground, there was almost no other noise.

The black light tried to escape repeatedly, but was always caught up by the white light and could never escape.

When Zhao Sheng turned his attention here, his consciousness expanded and instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.

The black light stagnated, and the petite black-haired demon rat reappeared.

At this time, this second-level demon rat was covered in blood, with many parts of its body covered in flesh and blood, and it looked very miserable.

Its eyes were full of fear, and it fell down on the ground and kowtowed to Zhao Sheng repeatedly, making a squeaking sound with obvious sadness and begging for mercy in its voice.

brush!

A ray of white light came from a distance, fell on Zhao Sheng's shoulder and turned into a white rat with snow-white hair.

At this moment, the two front paws of this big white rat were covered with ten silver-white sharp claws that shone with cold light, and drops of blood were dripping from the tips of the claws.

Squeak!

Dabai licked his beloved spiritual paw and squeaked to repay his master.

Zhao Sheng casually fed it a Demon Yuan Dan and praised Dabai a few more times.

Then, he turned his eyes to the black-haired demon rat and shouted coldly: "You evil beast, I am here specifically for you today. If you surrender, I will spare your life. If you are stubborn, hey!"

Zhizhi!

The black-haired demon rat has been worshiped for a hundred years and stayed in the temple for more than two hundred years. Now it can understand human speech.

After hearing this, it hesitated for a moment, but suddenly felt a strong killing intent coming from the terrifying human body.

It trembled violently, and immediately ran to Zhao Sheng's feet, lying on the ground with its belly turned up.

This move is a sign of surrender.

Zhao Sheng's stern expression softened slightly when he saw this, and his consciousness was condensed into a strand. Lightning penetrated the demon rat's head, and a series of mental restrictions evolved in his thoughts.

After a while, the master-servant contract was completed, and the black-haired demon rat lay limply on the ground, lifeless.

At this time, a long-haired man-rat suddenly rushed to Zhao Sheng's feet. His whole body was violently twitching, and soon the gray hair retracted into his flesh, and his head returned to normal, reappearing in human form.

"Sir, please forgive me! The little one was ordered by the Great Rat God, and he couldn't help himself. I have never done anything harmful to nature." The middle-aged man with a mustache kowtows like garlic, for fear that the master will use him to sacrifice a flag.

Zhao Sheng ignored this person and shouted directly at the demon rat: "You evil beast, if you don't take your rat sons and grandsons away immediately, you first go to the temple and wait. I will see you later."

Hearing this, the black-haired demon rat jumped up excitedly, squeaked wildly, and bolted into the darkness with lightning.

The rat tide receded quickly, leaving only a mess in the ruined temple.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man with a mustache also got up from the ground, and was about to sneak away, but as a look came to him, he trembled all over, and obediently knelt down on the ground again, waiting for relief.

"My lord, my lord, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, the Red Dragon Knights gradually recovered. A Red Dragon Knight quickly rushed to the side of the white-faced old man, pushed the Lord Jun Cheng hard, and at the same time injected streams of innate true energy into his body.

But the white-faced old man lay motionless on the ground, still unconscious.

Seeing this scene, the Red Dragon Knights looked very anxious and frightened.

The laws of the Great Gu Dynasty were strict, and military law was even more stringent. If an official on his way to his post is killed on the way, the soldiers escorting him along the way will also be severely punished, ranging from being thrown into a death camp to being beheaded in public.

Therefore, when everyone saw the old man unconscious, they were all anxious.

At this time, Lieutenant Jiang walked up to Zhao Sheng with his magic sword in hand, respectfully performed a military salute, and said sincerely with gratitude: "Jiang Wuyang, a humble official, thank you master for saving your life!"

"No need to be polite! Your master must have been fascinated. Let me go and have a look."

As soon as Zhao Sheng finished speaking, Lieutenant Jiang looked ecstatic, but at this moment, the double-horned book boy suddenly appeared in front of them, shouting first: "Uncle, you are confused!"

Zhao Sheng turned to look at the great master of the trance and glanced at him with an indifferent expression.

The double-horned book boy trembled all over and quickly sent the message over, whispering for a while.

After hearing this, Zhao Sheng nodded slightly and said yes. Then he walked up to the white-faced old man, shot out a stream of spiritual light with his hands, and disappeared into the old man's Qiqiao Niwan Palace.

After a while, the white-faced old man's eyelids rolled slightly, he groaned, and slowly woke up.

"Where is this officer?"

Seeing this, the double-horned book boy rushed to the person, stretched out his hands, and saw a circle of green light rolling away like a tide, pushing the Red Dragon Knights who were about to step forward to retreat more than ten steps away.

Everyone changed their colors in shock.

"Liu Juncheng, if my uncle hadn't taken action today, your life would have been in danger! Tell me, how will you repay your life-saving grace?" The book boy squatted on the ground and teased with a strange smile.

The Shuangjiao Shutong's real name is Ye Tianyun. This man was the first subordinate that Zhao Sheng came to Qian'an County to conquer.

Speaking of Ye Tianyun, his life experience is quite legendary.

His parents died when he was young, and he had to seek refuge with his uncle, a hunter. He followed his uncle into the mountains to hunt since he was nine years old.

When I was twelve years old, I lost my way in the deep mountains and forests. I accidentally walked into a deep valley and accidentally ate an unknown strange fruit.

From then on, his appearance and figure were forever fixed at the age of twelve. At the same time, he was able to reborn, and he reached the realm of innateness as a naughty boy.

From then on, Ye Tianyun seemed to be blessed with good luck, doing everything that went against his will, and his strength increased by leaps and bounds.

With his innate energy as strong as the sea and a pair of iron fists, this man was invincible in the Jianghu of Qian'an County, and was later revered as the "Immortal Child" by all the Jianghu forces in the county.

After turning 100, feeling that time was running out, Ye Tianyun began to frantically search for a way to extend his life.

But mortals have their own lifespan. Even if Ye Tianyun has half-stepped to become a god, he still cannot break the shackles of heaven and earth.

Ye Tianyun had to ask gods and ghosts for help. Just because it is rumored that the Five-Connected Snake God can give the secret method of extending life. This person actually took the initiative to join the Wutong Temple.

Later, by chance, Ye Tianyun succeeded in breaking through the realm of Tongshenwu with the help of Wutong secret technique. Not only was his strength not weaker than that of the foundation-building monks, but his lifespan was greatly increased as a result.

As a result, he soon became a fanatical believer in Wutong God.

Due to Ye Tianyun's strong support, the Wutong Divine Sect, which was already deeply rooted, has developed even more rapidly. In recent years, it has become the second largest religious force in Qian'an County after Tiandao Sect.

As a result, he himself took up the post of protector of the Wutong Divine Sect, which vaguely meant he was the boss behind the scenes.

A few days ago, after Zhao Sheng arrived in Qian'an County, he immediately found the Wutong Temple, the largest temple in the county, and Ye Tianyun happened to be there too.

So Zhao Sheng took action and easily captured this person.

Ye Tianyun is used to being domineering and unruly, but because the time to subdue him is too short, he is dissatisfied verbally and heartily, so his words always have a strange yin and yang tone.

Today, the reason why Zhao Sheng and the two specially guarded this ruined temple was of course the black-haired demon rat.

This rat is worshiped as the incarnation of the Wutong God and is also the temple-protecting animal of a Wutong temple.

Because of its presence and the interference of several temple ministers, Ye Tianyun's ambition to unify the entire county's believers was dashed many times.

Therefore, when Zhao Sheng first revealed his intention to unify the Wutong Divine Sect, Ye Tianyun couldn't wait to take him to the ruined temple and wait.

As for how he knew that the demon rat would attack and kill the new county magistrate, it not only involved the interest and power struggle within the government, but also related to the missionary disputes.

Of course, Zhao Sheng didn't pay much attention to the overt and covert struggle between the Qian'an County Temple and the Wutong Divine Sect.

With the position of the Righteous God in hand, the Wutong God is no longer a temple of evil gods, so he is not afraid of the Tiandao Sect to destroy him.

He just wanted to collect incense, wait until the clay statues in the temple were replaced with the Wutong God, and after the affairs of Qian'an County were settled, he would return to Chu State City.

After a while, the white-faced old man learned the cause and effect from Ye Tianyun, and his face turned pale with fear.

He never expected that the journey to his appointment would be so dangerous. Not only would there be a female ghost that fascinated him on the way, but he would also be killed on the way.

Ye Tianyun is cunning and cunning, and takes advantage of Liu Juncheng's shock and gratitude for saving his life, so he takes the opportunity to establish friendship with him.

Jun Cheng is the second-ranking figure in the county government office. After this person successfully performs his duties, he will definitely be of great use in the future.

After luckily escaping the murder, the white-faced old man did not dare to stay here any longer and immediately urged Jiang Xiaowei and others to leave the place immediately.

Then, he thanked Zhao Sheng and the two of them with a grateful face, and expressed the hope of escorting them for a while.

This move suited Ye Tianyun's wishes, so he offered to escort Liu Juncheng to his appointment.

This made the white-faced old man even more grateful.

Of course, if Zhao Sheng wants to maintain the image of a worldly master, he will not condescend to others.

After a while, the carriage slowly drove into the night. The seven or eight surviving Red Dragon Knights, led by Captain Jiang, spread out to protect the carriage and followed them away on foot.

…

A few days later, there was a beautiful mountain peak three hundred miles away from Qian'an County. Halfway up the mountain, there were large temple buildings with yellow tiles and red walls running down the mountain. There were hundreds of palaces and courtyards, stretching for more than ten miles.

In a square at the foot of the mountain, densely packed carriages were parked.

Groups of believers were walking along the stone steps, step by step with pious faces, to the door of the grand and towering temple halfway up the mountain, and then entered the temple.

This temple building complex is the largest of the Wutong Divine Sect in Qian'an County, and it is also the home base of Ye Tianyun.

At this moment, in an ordinary temple in the deepest part of the temple, a group of weirdos wearing flashy clothes were standing.

Among the crowd, there were goddesses dressed in bright red and green, smeared with makeup, white-haired old women with bells, drums and small flags hanging on their waists, and old men with strange black pythons coiled around their bodies and bulging bags on their waists.

In addition to these weird ones, there are also a few mysterious people covered in black robes who seem to be hiding from the light.

Of course, the largest number of people were middle-aged and elderly Taoists who wore gorgeous Taoist robes, looked extraordinary, and had an air of immortality.

These people are all high-ranking members of the Wutong Divine Sect. Among them are mortals who pretend to be gods and ghosts, as well as strangers who are proficient in various magical skills. Most of them are goddesses who have inherited some Wutong secret skills.

Standing at the front of these people were the five major temple ministers headed by Ye Tianyun.

Zhao Sheng sat expressionlessly on the only high chair in the palace, his eyes like lightning, scanning the bunch of crooked melons and cracked jujubes in front of him, feeling a little bored.

At this time, crawling under his feet were black-haired demon rats, psychic white rats, green snakes, golden clams, black hedgehogs, red bats and other five psychic beasts with six heads.

They released their momentum with all their strength, and the demonic energy billowed, filling the entire palace, and everyone below them turned pale. Only the Five Temple Zhu and Ye Tianyun could still remain normal.

Not to mention Ye Tianyun, the five major temples are all Qi Refining realm monks. Although their strength is low, they are not afraid of the pressure of spiritual beasts.

Seeing that even the Great Rat God had surrendered to humans, Wu Damiao Zhu had a calm expression on his face, but his heart was already full of horror.

When Ye Tianyun saw that the uncle had no intention of speaking, his heart suddenly moved. He immediately knelt down and shouted loudly: "My subordinate, Ye Tianyun, pay homage to the master!"

Following his shout, Wu Da Miao Zhu couldn't stand any longer. He couldn't help but half-knelt and bowed his head, shouting that he had seen the master.

As a result, a group of goddesses and men in the palace knelt down and saluted Zhao Sheng one after another.

It was only then that Zhao Sheng showed a slight smile on his face.

"No courtesy, get up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an indescribable and terrifying aura suddenly rose from his body, filling the entire palace in an instant, easily dissipating the auras of the six spiritual beasts.

Everyone sensed the majestic aura like the ocean coming from above, and instinctively felt an inexplicable fear in their hearts, and all of them lowered their heads deeply.
