Chapter 370 Killing the Demons and Saving Maoshan
I couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seemed that my identity had been exposed.
"Senior Yun Chen is joking, if you really wanted to report me, I'm afraid I would have been torn into pieces by now.
Since you chose to take me to Maoshan, it shows that we all have the same purpose."
Taoist Yun Chen waved his sleeves and revealed a faint smile.
"Oh! Then tell me what purpose I can have."
I smacked my lips, and a glint flashed in my eyes.
"Kill the evil spirits and save Maoshan."
Taoist Yun Chen was stunned for a moment, then walked towards the spiritual tablets of Maoshan ancestors from past generations with his hands behind his back.
"Really? The Maoshan Sect has been passed down for thousands of years and is the Taishan Beidou of the spiritual world.
Maoshan is a place where the universe gathers and Taoism flourishes.
The Heavenly Master of Maoshan slays demons and has the world in mind, how can there be evil spirits?"
My eyes glanced at the densely packed memorial tablets in the ancestral hall, and I couldn't help but feel a sigh of relief.
"I have never denied the contribution that the ancestors of the Maoshan Sect have made in helping the world. Even in the current Maoshan Sect, there are still heavenly masters who are as righteous and awe-inspiring as Taoist Gu Yan.
It's a pity that the world has changed and people's hearts are no longer ancient.
Today, Maoshan has become a place where evil spirits gather and hide evil and evil.
If not, why would you have been gone for decades?"
Taoist Yun Chen trembled all over and turned around slowly.
"Changqing, if only you were really my Maoshan disciple."
I cupped my hands towards Taoist Yunchen with a respectful look on my face.
"Senior Yunchen, be it Lin Shisan or Li Changqing.
In these troubled times, the differences between sects are no longer important, because we are all disciples of the ancestor."
Taoist Yun Chen curled his lips and showed a faint smile.
"You brat, you see clearly enough.
If you don't help me with this big hat, I'm afraid it will appear disrespectful to my ancestor.
Tell me, what have you found?"
I smiled lightly at Taoist Yunchen, suddenly took out the soul-capturing mirror, and looked at Taoist Yunchen.
I saw Taoist Yun Chen in the mirror as simple and dust-free, showing no signs of being eroded by the aura of the Nine Netherworlds.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to be on the safe side. I've offended you so much."
Taoist Yun Chen squinted his eyes, glanced at the soul-capturing mirror in my hand, and couldn't help stroking his beard.
"Your mirror looks very similar to the magic weapon used by Master Tianhuan thousands of years ago."
I smiled and nodded.
"Senior Yun Chen has good eyesight. This soul-capturing mirror is indeed the magical weapon of Master Tianhuan.
This mirror has an absolute restraint effect on the evil spirits of the Nine Netherworlds, and any hidden evil spirits will have no way of hiding under the soul-capturing mirror."
Taoist Yun Chen frowned, showing a heavy expression.
"Nine Nether Demon Qi? You mean there are ghosts lurking in Maoshan Sect."
I nodded slightly and then told the truth about what I had found.
After Taoist Yunchen heard this, he couldn't help being furious.
"So that's it. No wonder the Maoshan Sect has become more and more turbulent in recent years, and these devils have become more and more rampant.
If this continues, the Maoshan Sect's thousands of years of foundation may be destroyed.
By the way, is there anything I can do to help you?"
Taoist Yun Chen raised his hand and asked straight to the point.
"According to the information I have received, there may be a powerful Demon Lord lurking in the Maoshan Sect.
I've been wandering around the Maoshan Sect these days, but I'm actually searching for the ghosts lurking in the dark.
Up to now, a total of 138 ghost demons have been found lurking in the dark, but only the hidden demon king has not been found.
Taoist Tianxu was beaten into the Demon Suppressing Cave by Lu Tianyuan back then. Although his soul was still alive, he could not escape from the Demon Suppressing Cave.
This demon lurking in the dark should not be him. I have tried many ordinary Maoshan disciples.
Now only the first of the Nine Peaks and Twelve Palaces is left, and the Taiyuan Taoist guarding the Demon Suppressing Cave remains.
In terms of cultivation alone, these people are all above me, and they are all fine people who have lived for nearly a hundred years.
I don’t dare to act rashly.”
Taoist Yun Chen raised his eyebrows and showed a faint smile.
"Actually, it is not difficult to find this hidden demon.
There is a kind of river fish at the foot of Maoshan Mountain, which tastes extremely delicious.
When I was young, I always secretly went down the mountain to catch fish, but this kind of river fish lay on the silt and sand at the bottom of the river all day long, and it was very cunning.
Not only do they not eat any bait, their hiding places are also very secretive.
If you want to catch fish, the water is too clear.
Only by muddying the water first can you fish in troubled waters."
Did you mix the water first?
I smacked my lips, as if I was enlightened.
"Thank you, Senior Yunchen, for your guidance. I know what to do."
I cupped my hands towards Yun Chen, then turned around and walked away from the ancestral hall.
After walking a few steps, I couldn't help but feel doubts in my heart and turned back.
"Senior Yun Chen, I think I've hidden myself very well. Even a strong man like Cang Xuan has never seen through my disguise.
How did you know that I am Lin Shisan?"
Taoist Yun Chen stroked his beard and showed a look of disdain.
"Boy, although my Taoist heart is broken, my eyes are still very good.
When it comes to cultivation, I may not be as good as my nephews now.
But when it comes to understanding people's hearts and identifying evil spirits, there may not be anyone in the world who can beat me.
I have traveled around the world for decades and experienced all kinds of things in the world. I have never seen any kind of people.
You followed me secretly for three days, deliberately releasing your aura to attract my attention.
Later, he used himself as bait to set up a trap for me, just because he wanted me to take you to Maoshan.
As for how I can determine that you are Lin Shisan, it is very simple. Looking at the younger generation in the entire spiritual world, I am afraid that there is no one with such talent and courage.
I just saw how happy you were acting, so I just acted with you!"
I felt a wry smile in my heart, because Taoist Yunchen had already seen through my identity from the beginning, but he was just too lazy to expose me.
Although this old Taoist has abandoned his Taoism and his cultivation is not as good as before, he still gives me an unfathomable feeling.
"Senior, can I ask you another question?"
Taoist Yunchen's old face has always remained calm.
"You want to ask me why I destroyed my Taoist mind back then, right?"
I nodded heavily.
"That's right! Throughout the ages, there have been many practitioners who may not be able to understand the Taoist mind throughout their entire lives.
What's more, senior Yun Chen had already reached the state of divine control and was only a step away from the unity of heaven and man.
But for the sake of it, my predecessor chose to destroy his Taoist mind and traveled around the world for decades. I want to know what happened back then?"
Taoist Yun Chen was silent for a long time, seeming to recall some past events, with a look of sadness in his eyes.
