I’ll Quit Being a God
Chapter 8
Gongshu Jie kept a very low profile and explained the cause and effect first to resolve possible misunderstandings, because demons are very taboo about being disturbed by outsiders during their practice.
But in fact, with his status as a city witch Zhu, he does not need to care too much even when facing the righteous gods of those famous mountains and rivers.
It's just that the white wolf in front of him is not an ordinary mountain god. Even the sky thunder is unscathed. Gongshu Jie thinks he is inferior to him.
However, after Gongshu Jie spoke respectfully, the huge white wolf just glanced at him coldly and nodded.
"I see."
After saying that, the white wolf escaped underground and disappeared from Gongshu Jie's sight.
This ambiguous answer made Gongshu Jie a little stunned.
This...is this forgiveness or not?
After hesitating for a while, Gongshu Jie finally stayed where he was, not daring to leave without permission, wanting to wait until the mythical beast came back before he could apologize.
This mythical beast is so ferocious. If you hate it and let it go down the mountain to join the world, I am afraid that the entire Huotong Kingdom will be devastated. Uncle Jie didn't dare to take risks.
However, Lu Heng, who had escaped underground, had no time to pay attention to the uneasiness in Gongshu Jie's heart.
Now his body is filled with huge power of thunder, which makes him very uncomfortable. He just wanted to digest the power of thunder in his body quickly to avoid being burst.
When he absorbed the thunder last month, because he failed to control the amount properly, his skin and flesh cracked due to the surge of thunder and lightning, and he had to rest for a long time before recovering.
Unexpectedly, I sucked too much this time...ah! It's terrible!
Although this method of absorbing sky thunder is good, it is difficult to control the quantity!
Chapter 13 Dingshan Talisman
Underground in the mountain temple, Lu Heng entered the state of latent cultivation again, constantly digesting the power of thunder and calamity in his body.
Those surging thunder and lightning surged inside his body, slowly integrating into his flesh and blood.
Now Lu Heng's body can no longer find the existence of evil spirit.
Because in the past six months of practice, as the power of thunder and calamity in the body increased, the originally huge amount of demonic energy was driven and repelled by the surging power of thunder and evil, and finally shrank completely into the sea of air and solidified into A small group.
Now the power surging in Lu Heng's body has completely turned into the power of thunder, and the demonic aura is no longer visible. If he didn't have the appearance of a giant wolf and could only sense it with his breath, no one would have regarded him as a monster.
As for the human Wu Zhu who suddenly appeared outside, Lu Heng was actually a little timid.
In the remaining memories of the wolf demon, Wu Zhu is the most noble person in the city. He who is in charge of the incense, offerings, and sacrifices of a city can be said to be a real big shot, many times more powerful than a monster in a remote mountain like a wolf monster.
If a little monster like the wolf monster encounters a being of Wu Zhu's level, he will either turn around and run away, or kneel down and beg for mercy. He won't even have the thought of resisting because the gap between the two sides is too big.
Therefore, Lu Heng immediately escaped underground. In addition to quickly absorbing the power of thunder in his body, he was also afraid that the human witch Zhu would subjugate the demon if he disagreed with him.
However, during the process of silent cultivation, Lu Heng could feel that Wu Zhu outside had not left, but had been lingering outside.
Lu Heng was suddenly shocked - could this Wu Zhu be determined to kill him? So you're guarding him outside?
But after thinking about it carefully, it’s not quite right.
If Wu Zhu really wanted to subdue the demon, he would have done it long ago. Even if Lu Heng sneaks into the ground, the other party should have a way to force Lu Heng to come out.
Moreover, Wu Zhu's attitude was modest, his words could even be said to be respectful, and he didn't look like he was going to fight with Lu Heng. As the opponent's identity as the witch Zhu of Yicheng, it was naturally impossible that he was here to entertain Lu Heng.
So why does the other party have such an attitude?
The more Lu Heng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Was Wu Zhu frightened by the scene where he absorbed the thunder? Do you think Lu Heng is some kind of terrifying monster? That's why you don't dare to take action rashly?
Such a conjecture emerged in his mind, but Lu Heng was not sure.
Because my family knows my own affairs, although absorbing the thunder may seem scary, it actually only looks scary.
After the tribulation thunder that was sucked into the body was transformed into Lu Heng's own mana, although it became more pure, the amount was much less. Lu Heng practiced in Qian for half a year, absorbing one thunder after another, but not many of them were actually transformed into his own.
Not to mention compared to a city of witches, even compared to the wolf demon's two hundred years of demonic power, the amount is far behind.
Even if he develops the Tianlei Cultivation Method, his potential is unlimited, but it is only potential and has not grown up yet.
He suspected that if he really fought with Wu Zhu, he would be killed instantly with one move.
But Lu Heng had been hiding underground for a full hour, and the raging thunderous power in his body had stabilized. The Wu Zhu named Gongshu Jie was still waiting outside and did not leave. He seemed determined to stay outside until Lu Heng came out.
Lu Heng had a headache.
Emotionally, he didn't want to have any contact with this uncle Jie at all.
He is a demon, and Gongshu Jie is the shaman who subdues demons. If there was a conflict between the two, he would probably have to answer for his life on the spot.
But if he never goes out and angers the other party, he will probably be in trouble.
After all, a big shot like Wu Zhu is always a guest wherever he goes. Now when I come to visit you, how dare you, a mere mountain demon, look down on me? Are you going to give me a shut-down? Dawei Tianlong!
... Lu Heng couldn't calm down when he thought of the scene where Wu Zhu outside was angry because he was ignored, and then took action because of his anger, and then killed himself with one move.
Although if you think about it carefully, leaving this big boss outside for a full hour is actually considered a slight.
Forget it, hiding is actually at a disadvantage. It's better to just go out and ask the other party what's going on.
Thinking of this, Lu Heng sighed slightly, left the ground, and quickly surfaced. Finally, he appeared in front of the Earth Temple again.
In the afternoon, the light in the mountain forest is dim. The huge swirling clouds swirling in the sky shrouded the forest, blocking the blazing sunlight and making the world look gloomy.
Wu Zhu, who was dressed in black robes, was sitting cross-legged under a tree, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was practicing meditation. The little snake hanging on his earlobe seemed to be asleep and no longer squirming.
The moment Lu Heng appeared, Gongshu Jie immediately opened his eyes and stood up.
"Uncle Jie has met the Hanyu Mountain God," Gongshu Jie bowed his hands in a salute, neither humble nor overbearing.
As Gongshu Jie, making such a gesture was already considered a great respect. Lu Heng knew that the other party was really shocked by the sight of him absorbing the thunder.
But Gongshu Jie was so humble, but Lu Heng didn't dare to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf.
He said politely, "Uncle Wu Zhu, there is no need to be polite. I am Lu Heng, and he is now the mountain god of Hanyu Mountain. I wonder if Wu Zhu is staying here, but if he has anything to do with me?"
Because he was too big and had the body of a beast, Lu Heng could not salute like the other party and could only express his goodwill with words.
However, Lu Heng's attitude was kind, but Gongshu Jie did not dare to have any excuses, and saluted again, "God's words are serious, I have no other intention to stay here. I just see that God is protecting us, I respect you in my heart, and want to offer something." To form good relationships.”
As he spoke, Uncle Jie took out a bright yellow jade pendant, "This is the Dingshan Talisman, which can fix the mountains and rivers. Although it is not a rare item, wearing it on the body has some benefits... Please accept it, God."
The moment Gongshu Jie took out the jade pendant, the ground energy in Hanyu Mountain seemed to react. As the God of Hanyu Mountain, Lu Heng is even more aware of the effectiveness of the jade pendant.
What is the slightest benefit to this? To the mountain god, this Dingshan Talisman is a rare treasure!
With this mountain-fixing talisman, Lu Heng's authority and strength as a mountain god, as well as his cultivation speed, can be improved by several levels. If the original wolf demon had seen this Dingshan Talisman, he would have been so greedy that he would have knelt down and drooled.
What does this uncle Jie want to do when he gives such an expensive gift to me when we meet him?
Lu Heng looked at the bright yellow jade pendant, feeling the rich earth spirit power inside the jade pendant, and shook his head.
"Thank you so much for your kindness, Wu Zhu. But this thing is of no use to me, and since I have no merit and no reward, I cannot accept this treasure."
Lu Heng didn't want to be a mountain god like Laoshizi, and he didn't need this piece of jade since he had the Tianlei practice method. What's more, if such a valuable treasure is taken away, not only will the favor be owed a lot, but if Uncle Jie discovers that Lu Heng is not that strong at all, that he has been deceived, and has lost such a valuable treasure, wouldn't he be furious?
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and Lu Heng did not want to add a possible enemy to his future by coveting an unused treasure.
Chapter 14 Fear of both sides
Bai Lang's refusal was not beyond Gongshu Jie's expectation.
He knew that the divine beast in front of him didn't care about the so-called mountain god's position at all.
Although in this world, there are indeed some demon cultivators who are willing to guard the water and soil of a mountain range, become the god of a mountain or a water, receive some incense, and practice by relying on the spiritual energy of the earth's veins. But the mythical beast in front of him cannot be included in this.
The heavenly thunder that practitioners fear and fear is just the foundation of their practice.
The fateful catastrophe that ordinary people worry about is just a passing thing for these mythical beasts that have existed in ancient times.
He didn't offer this piece of jade to please or test, just because the only thing he could use to get close to him was this Jingshan Talisman. Since the divine beast wouldn't be taken away, there was nothing he could do.
However, after taking back the jade pendant and looking at the huge white wolf in front of him, Gongshu Jie had no better words to say for a moment.
He wanted to ask the mythical beast in front of him why he opened an incense burner here, but he was afraid that he would violate a taboo by asking rashly.
I want to talk about the past with the mythical beast and get close to him, but I am worried that I will be self-defeating and offend the mythical beast because I am not good at words.
So Gongshu Jie stood still, not knowing what to say, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into a strange deadlock.
Fortunately, someone came to help him out.
In the distant mountain forest, there was a young girl running in the mountains, panting rapidly.
Although the distance was still far away, both Lu Heng, the mountain god, and Gongshu Jie, who was highly skilled in cultivation, were aware of it.
One person and one wolf looked in that direction at the same time, and Gongshu Jie was a little surprised - this breath seemed familiar?
As a mountain god, Lu Heng knew better who was coming. Because the Mountain God Token, which carries some of his power, is now on the girl's body.
Lu Heng sensed it slightly, and the mountain god's power was activated directly. The little girl who was running quickly in the forest suddenly felt that the scene around her had changed dramatically. All the trees on both sides were falling backwards so fast that they even turned into afterimages. Everything in her field of vision was spinning rapidly, and the colorful sights completely confused her eyes.
The girl stared at this magical scene with wide eyes. Before she could react, she found that all the afterimages had disappeared. She was standing in front of a huge white wolf. Behind the white wolf was the familiar mountain temple.
The girl stared in shock, almost suspecting that she was hallucinating, "Shan... Lord Mountain God?"
She was clearly far away from the mountain temple, so why did she suddenly arrive there in an instant? Could it be that the mountain god brought her here?
The girl looked shocked, but the giant wolf nodded calmly and said, "It's me."
He lowered his head, looked at the little girl in front of him, and asked, "You came to the mountains in a hurry, but what emergency happened in the village?"
Lu Heng's question made the girl come back to her senses and remember the purpose of her trip.
Her expression was a little anxious, "Sorry, Lord Mountain God, a Master Wu Zhu came from outside the mountain. He said he came here to pursue the demon! Lord Mountain God, you...do you think he came to find you?"
The girl's anxious expression was not fake, she was indeed concerned about Lu Heng's safety, and she didn't even care that her words would offend the mountain god who was a monster.
However, when she said these words, Lu Heng did not react, but Gongshu Jie beside him was so frightened that the hairs all over his body stood up.
"There must be a misunderstanding about this!" Uncle Jie was so anxious that he quickly interrupted the girl, fearing that the girl would say something fatal again.
"Shangshen Mingjian, I really came here just to track down the demon species that escaped from a city. I definitely didn't come here for you, Shangshen. This is a misunderstanding!"
Uncle Jie is not afraid of death, but he doesn't want to die in an unknown way.
He finally got closer to the Hanyu Mountain God and made the atmosphere a little more harmonious. If he had a conflict with the mountain god due to a misunderstanding at this time and suffered an unreasonable disaster, he would be so depressed that he would vomit blood.
But Gongshu Jie's explanation made the girl in front of the giant wolf stunned for a moment.
The girl turned around and realized that standing not far behind her was Master Wu Zhu in black robes.
The girl was so frightened that she screamed repeatedly with a look of fear on her face...she...she actually said those words in front of Master Wu Zhu? Master Wu Zhu is actually always around? Did you hear what she said?
And Master Wu Zhu has actually found Lord Mountain God? !
The girl's face turned pale and she backed away repeatedly. She was so frightened that she didn't even hear clearly what Uncle Jie said.
Among the two and one wolf, Lu Heng was probably the calmest.
He stretched out his huge paws, gently pulled the little girl to his side, calmed the girl's panic, and said, "Don't be afraid, Uncle Wu Zhu has no ill intentions. He's not here to cause trouble for me, Xiao Ai, you don't have to Worry."
Seeing that the little girl calmed down a little because of his comfort, Lu Heng looked at the black-robed Wu Zhu not far away and said.
"The girl in the mountains doesn't know etiquette, which makes Wu Zhu laugh."
Lu Heng's words made Uncle Jie sigh in relief. He cupped his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. This girl's innocent heart and sincerity are worthy of praise. It is a good thing for God to have such a believer."
After seeing Lu Heng's attitude towards the little girl, Uncle Jie finally let go of his worries.
Although this mythical beast has a mysterious origin and is majestic, it is so caring to an ordinary human child. It is probably not the most ferocious and vicious type among the mythical beasts.
However, this is not surprising. After all, for someone who is a divine beast, he is willing to condescend to come to Hanyu Mountain to open incense and bless someone. No matter what the cause and effect is, he must have an easy-going nature.
After all, among the mythical beasts, the mainstream is the kind of evil beast that will run thousands of miles to the ground if they don't agree with each other, and will eat thousands of people if they are angry.
It's just that guessing is one thing, but actually doing it is another. Even though he understood at first that the beast in front of him was not vicious, Gongshu Jie was still nervous. Now that the guess has been verified, the big stone in Gongshu Jie's heart has been relieved.
The mythical beast in front of me is so easy-going, so there should be no need to worry about him coming down from the mountain to join the world and wreak havoc on the world.
But even so, it doesn't mean that Uncle Jie dares to neglect the divine beast in front of him. After he decided to go down the mountain, he immediately informed Wuzhu, a few big cities near the Hanyu Mountains, so that everyone could exchange information.
No matter what, Huotongguo cannot offend this sacred beast in the mountains and must treat it with caution.
The opponent has always been a legendary ancient beast. No matter how easy-going he is, once he is angered, it will definitely be a disaster.
What's more, this divine beast also has the power to control heavenly thunder, and all heavenly tribulations are driven by it. This kind of divine power is simply unheard of and unseen. I am afraid that among the ancient divine beasts, the god who calls himself Lu Heng is also the strongest.
Gongshu Jie thought like this, and the expression on his face became more serious. He didn't dare to show any disrespect in his behavior, and decided to leave a good impression in the heart of this mythical beast.
