In Accordance with Heaven's Way (Second Update!)
Chapter 542: In accordance with Heaven's Way (Second Update!)
Although he took out the jade pendant, he did not take it off. He hesitated and said, "The King of Hell said that this jade pendant is used to suppress the evil in my body. It cannot be easily shown to others. If it is too far away from the body, bad things will happen."
The Woodcutter Sage shook his head and said, "With me by your side, what bad things can happen? At most, it's just some small tricks like curses and lightning strikes. I don't care about them."
Qin Mu gritted his teeth and took off the jade pendant, thinking: "I took off the jade pendant before and showed it to the villagers and Sister Jing, and nothing bad happened. It shouldn't happen this time either."
The Woodcutter Saint took the jade pendant, looked at it intently, nodded and said, "It is indeed a jade pendant from the Kaihuang lineage. Hey, this jade pendant is not exactly the same as the jade pendant from the Kaihuang lineage. There is a strange sealing formation hidden in the deeper space inside. This formation should be used to seal something. Could it be a formation to seal your demonic nature?"
Qin Mu said: "Someone took me out of Youdu and brought me to Daxu. I was picked up by Granny Si who lived in Daxu. Besides the basket and swaddling clothes, there was only this jade pendant. The person who brought me here was seriously injured and died..."
His face was gloomy, and he continued, "Grandma Si is the saint of my Tiansheng Sect. She raised me to adulthood. I have always worn this jade pendant. Grandma Si and her friends have not discovered other functions of the jade pendant. They said that the jade pendant can drive back the darkness of Daxu, but it can only protect infants. Later, the head of our village discovered that the jade pendant has an effect that can guide us to Wuyou Township, but it was just a trap. The jade pendant led me to Fengdu, and we encountered a demon god who ambushed us outside Fengdu."
"There are indeed more secrets in this jade pendant."
The woodcutter sage played with the jade pendant, his eyes showing strange colors, and said: "The jade pendant can not only guide you to Wuyou Township, but also guide you to Youdu. Because this jade pendant was forged in Youdu, and the person who forged the jade pendant is extremely powerful, more powerful than me. Strange, what exactly does such a powerful seal want to seal?"
His eyes were dim, and he was curious: "If I suppress the seal formation in the jade pendant, I can know what the jade pendant is used to seal..."
Qin Mu was also looking forward to it. Last time in Fengdu, the King of Hell also tried to do this. However, Qin Mu then lost his self-awareness and did not see what happened next.
He was also very curious about what the jade pendant was sealing and what would happen when the seal was released.
The Woodcutter Sage looked at his expectant expression, held the jade pendant in his hand and pondered for a moment, then stuffed it back into his hand.
Qin Mu was puzzled.
"The person who forged the jade pendant is very powerful. He should be an extremely powerful existence in Youdu. Youdu has always been very mysterious. Few people can explore the true face of Youdu. Even Kaihuang doesn't know how many masters are hidden in it."
The woodcutter sage said, "This jade pendant must have a deeper meaning when it is placed on you. I think it is better for me not to explore it. Since the King of Hell said that you should always keep the jade pendant with you, then you should do as you are told."
He also wanted to know what would happen to the seal that suppressed the jade pendant, but he endured it.
Qin Mu had no choice but to put away the jade pendant and still hang it around his neck.
At this moment, many Taihuangtian's magical troops have entered Licheng to repair the dilapidated buildings and build city defenses. Qin Mu looked around and did not see any weapons such as the Zhenyuan Cannon and the Sun-Shooting Cannon.
Although the supernatural powers of Taihuangtian are very powerful, much stronger than those of Yankang, their attainments in numerology are very poor. Weapons such as the Zhenyuan Cannon require very high attainments in numerology, which they cannot refine.
Even if Qin Mu drew the blueprints of the True Essence Cannon and the Sun-shooting Divine Cannon and gave them to them, they probably wouldn't be able to manufacture them. Only Yankang State, which has countless magical masters who are proficient in numerology, can create them.
"How did you come to Taihuangtian?" asked the Woodcutter Sage.
Qin Mu told the story of how he modified the sacrificial ritual of flesh and blood sacrifice, replaced a demon general, and teleported himself to Taihuang Heaven. The Woodcutter Sage shook his head: "What nonsense, replacing yourself in the enemy camp, aren't you afraid of death?"
Qin Mu took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "In order to defeat the First Ancestor Human Emperor, it is worth the risk! Please teach me the method of the young true god, Master!"
The Woodcutter Saint was slightly startled and said, "You want to become a young true god and defeat the deserter from the Human Emperor Palace?"
Qin Mu nodded heavily.
The woodcutter sage smiled and said, "You don't know where he came from?"
Qin Mu was confused.
"He has the same surname as you, Qin, and is also my disciple. Fu Ri Luo calls me the Heavenly Master. The Heavenly Master is a teacher who conforms to the Way of Heaven and is also the teacher of the Son of Heaven. In fact, he is just a teacher. Back then, I was ordered by Emperor Kaihuang to teach the princes, and among them was the deserter from the Human Emperor's Palace."
The woodcutter sage walked towards the east gate of the city, recalling the past with a dim gaze: "This prince is indeed extraordinary in talent and high in comprehension, but a catastrophe broke out, and the heaven fell in the war. The prince was afraid of death on the battlefield and fled, but by chance he saved some races, so he was revered as the emperor of men. I also survived. He came to see me several times, but I didn't want to see him, so I turned into a stone statue, and my soul traveled to find the answer, and I never saw him again. It's difficult for you to defeat him."
Qin Mu clenched his fists and said loudly: "But the Saint Master must have a way, right?"
The Woodcutter Saint climbed up the tall city tower. Because they needed to defend against the invasion of demons, the city tower was built very high, and climbing up the tower was like climbing a mountain.
"I have taught him. His aptitude and understanding are the best among all the princes I have taught. He can master any magical power once he has learned it. He respects his teacher and respects his teachings. Although I despise him for being a deserter, I still admire him very much. If you want to defeat him, it is useless for me to teach you."
The Woodcutter Sage climbed up step by step like an ordinary person, without using any magical powers, and said: "I am the teacher of Kaihuang. Although I have the title of Heavenly Master, in terms of combat power, I am not the strongest in the Kaihuang era. On the contrary, my combat power can only be regarded as middle-class. If I teach you, you will not be better than that deserter. And..."
He smiled and said, "Didn't I teach you that already?"
Qin Mu was stunned. He should have been talking about the teachings on the stone. Logically speaking, the Woodcutter Sage had indeed taught Qin Mu, but Qin Mu was not happy with this kind of teaching.
The Woodcutter Sage obviously had more powerful magical powers. On the battlefield, Qin Mu encountered the Feathered Owl and was nearly killed by it. It was only because the Woodcutter Sage casually performed a move that Qin Mu learned that he was able to escape.
Since he has more powerful magical powers, why is he unwilling to pass them on?
He wanted to learn the skills and magical powers that would allow him to become a young true god, he wanted to unify his body, he wanted to reach a realm that surpassed the First Human Emperor, he wanted to pin the First Human Emperor into the mud, beat him until he spit blood and broke bones, beat him until he kneeled and begged for mercy, beat him until he kowtowed and apologized to all the Human Emperors of all generations!
"If I teach you my magical power, you won't be able to use your brain to comprehend the Tribulation Sword. The Tribulation Sword is very wonderful, but I can't teach you how to use it."
The Woodcutter Sage climbed up the city wall, sat down, patted the steps beside him, and motioned Qin Mu to sit down as well.
Qin Mu sat down. The steps in front of the building were cold.
He glanced back and saw that the Black Tiger God was standing downstairs and did not come up.
"The magical powers I know are all hidden in the scriptures. As long as you comprehend them carefully, you can obtain the magical powers you want to learn. That scripture was actually passed down to me by Emperor Kaihuang. What I have learned is too much and too diverse. Even if I receive the supreme and unique skills from Emperor Kaihuang, I will not be able to make further progress. I can only be considered a mediocre god or demon."
The woodcutter sage said, "Later I discovered that learning too much is not necessarily a good thing. Come, watch the sunrise."
"sunrise?"
The corner of Qin Mu's eye twitched and he looked up. A waning sun in the sky was slowly emitting red light. The distorted sun was really dazzling.
His face suddenly turned pale, and he quickly withdrew his gaze, suppressing his inner impulse. The face of the woodcutter saint next to him also gradually turned pale, and he lowered his head and stopped looking.
The sunrise in Taihuangtian made them both feel very uneasy and restless.
Qin Mu is the leader of the Demon Sect. He is proficient in magic and has learned carpentry from Master Ma. He is very demanding in architecture. He can even modify the furniture made by Granny Si herself. What’s more, the sun in the sky is so dazzling?
The Tianmo Sect also has the Craftsman Hall and the Tiangong Hall, both of which have strict requirements on craftsmanship. The Craftsman Hall and the Tiangong Hall are both derived from the Dayu Tianmo Sutra, which are halls extended from the arithmetic and craftsmanship techniques in the scriptures. The Dayu Tianmo Sutra was passed down by the Woodcutter Saint, so it is conceivable that the Woodcutter Saint must have amazing attainments in arithmetic.
The supernatural beings in Taihuangtian were very proud. The sun in the sky was created by their god, but to the two of them, it was too ugly to look at.
In the sky, another full sun gradually became brighter, and both suns hung in the sky motionless.
The woodcutter saint's eyes twitched, and he tried not to look up, and said, "The guy from Taihuangtian has completely thrown away the craftsmanship!"
"The god who refines the sun is said to be called the Sun-Creating God." Qin Mu said with his head down.
"Bah! What sun-creating god? I know that guy. He used to be a cook in heaven!"
Qin Mu was stunned.
The woodcutter sage stood up and said, "The method of becoming a young true god is better for you to comprehend yourself than what I teach you. What I teach you is, after all, mine, and what you comprehend is the most suitable for you. I will lead you in, and the rest of the way is for you to walk out and continue on your own."
He looked up into the distance. To the south, west and north of the city, demonic energy was still surging, like a huge pot covering the sky and the earth. He said, "I came to Taihuangtian this time just to stop the demons from sacrificing blood to Taihuangtian. Fu Riluo is a wise general among the demons. He retreated this time because he did not have enough strength to deal with my sudden arrival. The next time he comes, it will be a blow that will shake the sky and the earth!"
Qin Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Can Taihuangtian stop it?"
Boom——
The earth shook, and Qin Mu hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, but saw that in the battlefield in the distance, many Taihuangtian supernatural beings piled up the dead demons and humans together, forming mountains of corpses.
Suddenly, the ground cracked open, and a huge altar slowly rose from the ground. The light of flesh and blood sacrifice flashed, and a red light shot up into the sky. In the red light, a tall stone statue appeared on the altar.
Boom, boom, loud vibrations were heard, and the battlefield continued to shake. Altars appeared one after another. From a distance, they looked like one "gold" character after another, but the tops were cut off.
On these tower-like altars, red lights shot up into the sky, and stone statues appeared on the altars!
Qin Mu was extremely excited and looked up at the Woodcutter Sage, waiting for his answer.
“Can’t stop it.”
The woodcutter sage poured a bucket of cold water on him: "It can only delay for a while."
————The second update is here! Thank you so much for the tips from the new leaders. When I opened Qidian last night, I saw pop-up windows one after another. I was so excited! Thank you everyone!
