Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion Chapter 240

Chapter 240 239. One fortune, two opportunities

 The attacks and defenses of the three-day monks had no effect on these Neptune Ju clones.

Even Lin Likong and the others who are in the Seventh Heaven Realm may be able to resist these Sea King Ju clones for a while, but over time they will be in danger.

 They have only one choice:

run!

 Run now!

Failing to prevent those Neptune Ju clones from landing, Lin Likong immediately turned around and left Daheishan.

There was an elder of the Seventh Heavenly Clan from the Lin Clan in Jiangzhou. Although he knew the danger of this monster, in order to save the younger members of his clan, he took a step slowly and was immediately entangled by the clone of Neptune Ju.

 He is strong.

So there were more than ten white chrysanthemums at once to greet him.

 In no time, blood was already visible.

 The entire Daheishan Mountains were filled with killings.

 There were children of the Lin tribe who fled down the Daheishan Mountains with Lin Likong.

But immediately a large number of long-threaded white chrysanthemums fell from the mountain, chasing them closely and killing the group of Lin tribe disciples one by one.

 The remaining Changsi Baiju, who had not yet seen any blood, continued to pursue Lin Likong.

Lei Jun looked far away and suddenly saw the direction in which Lin Likong was escaping, and there seemed to be a monstrous sword energy rising into the sky.

The sword energy is extremely cold, even more violent and cold than the snowstorm in the northern country. It can be seen that it is a direct descendant of the Youzhou Lin clan.

The invisible sword energy swept across, and the momentum was far greater than the north wind that Lin Likong had previously used to induce the aura of heaven and earth with his poems.

 The Confucian swordsmanship of an eighth-level Confucian scholar of the Youzhou Lin tribe.

In addition to Lin Likong, the Youzhou Lin Clan indeed has a more advanced and powerful person who also came to this snowy ridge in the northern border.

Just out of consideration to temporarily avoid irritating the Tang Dynasty imperial family, I temporarily stayed away from the Daheishan Mountains and did not approach immediately.

But a sudden and shocking change occurred in Daheishan, and finally the elder of the Youzhou Lin clan from the eighth level was forced out.

Haiwangju's clone is indeed fierce. Facing the blizzard transformed by the torrential sword energy, although the white silk threads were broken and broken, most of the silk ribbons could still be maintained.

Looking gentle, but fiercely rushing through the wind and snow, he continued to attack the two great scholars from the Youzhou Lin tribe.

 No wonder the people of the Lin clan and Dakong Temple had high hopes for this monster.

Although the elder of the Youzhou Lin clan, who was in the realm of eighth-level heavenly governance, was fierce with his sword, in order to protect Lin Likong, who was at a lower level in cultivation, he did not confront the many clones of Sea King Ju, but fought and retreated away.

The filamentous feverfews are like a swarm of bloodthirsty sharks, chasing the blizzard and gradually disappearing into the horizon.

Lei Jun saw it from a distance and was thoughtful in his heart.

The two great scholars of the Lin clan know the general situation of the long-threaded white chrysanthemum. The fact that they are taking this approach may mean that the long-threaded white chrysanthemum cannot last for too long.

Of course, the premise is that you must be able to hold off.

Lei Jun did not catch up to see the result, but instead looked at Daheishan Mountain in the distance, observing the long-silk white chrysanthemums still left on the mountain.

 These monsters can no longer be called white chrysanthemums at this moment.

 After drinking enough blood, everyone will be as red as blood.

 But after the killing, these monsters that devoured flesh, flesh and spiritual energy did not grow further.

 The slender silk ribbons stretched out by the blossoming blood chrysanthemums appear withered instead.

 After a while, the silk ribbon turned from blood red to dark red, and finally turned to pitch black, shrinking continuously.

 Killing speeds up the lives of these monsters towards their end.

Those long-thread white chrysanthemums that entangled Lin Likong and his wife before were not stained with blood, but could last longer.

“No wonder they don't have the same mind-set with the real great demon Haiwangju. Strictly speaking, they cannot be regarded as clones of Haiwangju.” Lei Jun was convinced.

He observed the changes in the monsters from a distance and speculated that these monsters were indeed related to the sea king chrysanthemum, but to be precise, they were more like the remains of a gecko that cut off its tail to survive.

Maybe it was because after Haiwangju was severely injured by the Queen, the injuries continued to be difficult to heal, and she was eventually forced to cut off part of her body to heal her injuries.

 I think it would be a very debilitating move and would not be used lightly.

But after all, it was a big demon that was equivalent to the cultivation level of a master from the ninth level of the human race. It was already fierce, and these remnants were used to share the power of carrying the queen, so it turned into a weird monster that looked like a white chrysanthemum.

 What Dakong Temple obtained can be regarded as waste reuse.

Taoist Master Lei thinks this idea is very good.

It would be even better if we could find some work for the Youzhou Lin tribe masters lurking aside.

The two sides have temporarily offset each other, leaving Tang Xiaotang with less worries.

 …Well, looking at the unrestrained playing style of a certain Celestial Master, it seems that he really has nothing to worry about.

Shangguanning previously contacted the Tang Dynasty emperor and informed him that there has been a response from the capital.

Tang Ting will also have masters secretly come north to this area, but they don't know the specific arrival time.

 I hope the drama is not over and the talent arrives.

Lei Jun shook his head slightly.

 On Dahei Mountain, there was deathly silence at the moment.

Most of the Lin Clan monks were killed by the monsters, including the elder of the Jiangzhou Lin Clan who was in the seventh heaven realm and could not escape. In the end, he was besieged by all the remaining monsters and died. From a certain perspective, He died somewhat cowardly and unjustly.

 After the monsters wreaked havoc on a large scale, they also exhausted their last vitality and withered away.

Has turned into a black wreckage, disintegrating and dissipating like ashes under the howling north wind, passing away with the wind.

Lei Jun looked at the sky above the top of Dahei Mountain.

 He can still vaguely sense the anomalies in the void realm.

 But there are no more changes there yet. To the naked eye, except for the blowing wind and snow, it is no different from the ordinary sky.

 Want to see if the young senior sister has gained anything at Longgu Ridge?

 Let's go look elsewhere... Lei Jun pondered deeply.

 As he was thinking about it, a ball of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and words appeared:

　　【The road to heaven begins step by step, and misfortunes and fortunes turn from desolate wilderness to civilization. 】

Lei Jun raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this.

He looked at the sky above Dahei Mountain and wondered in his mind that the so-called "road to the sky starts step by step", does it mean that the sky on the top of the mountain leads to the foreign void, or is it something else?

This time, the light ball has drawn four fortunes:

　　【If you win the lottery, go to Songye Ridge first, wait for the time, and then go to Daheishan. There is a chance to get a third-grade opportunity and a fourth-grade opportunity. There are a few waves at the moment, no big risks, but there are hidden dangers. Be cautious in the future, good luck. 】

　　【Winning the lottery, stay away from Dahei Mountain, Longgu Ridge, and Chengu Mountain, with no extra gains and nothing to lose, flat. 】

　　【If you win the lottery, go to Longguling, there will be no extra income, and you may encounter certain risks, which is unlucky. 】

　　　【If you win the lottery, go to Chengu Mountain, there will be no extra income, you may encounter certain risks, it is unlucky. 】

 Lei Jun read the sign and glanced around, while the relevant maps he consulted before came to mind.

Although those snow mountain maps were not very surprising, on this trip, Lei Jun vaguely guessed the dangers pointed to by the two middle and lower numbers.

The direction Lin Likong and his two men retreated should be towards the so-called Chengu Mountain.

  After all, there is an eighth-level master here, and there are not as many monsters chasing after him as at first.

The two elders of the Youzhou Lin clan should be able to deal with those monsters.

On the other hand, if Lei Jun goes over there, they may become a threat.

That person was a great scholar at the eighth level of heaven, with keen senses. Lei Jun used the Heavenly Master's Seal to hide, so there was no absolute guarantee that he could hide it from the other party.

 Several eighth-level masters were fighting against each other over at Dragon Bone Ridge. Although their attention was on each other, the battlefield was dangerous and it might be dangerous to get too close.

 If you win the lottery, you will go to Songye Ridge first and then return to Daheishan?

Songye Ridge... Lei Jun pondered slightly, took one last look at the sky above Dahei Mountain, and then turned around and walked away.

The benefits predicted by the winning lottery this time are really good.

A third-grade opportunity plus a fourth-grade opportunity, it's an incredible amount of luck!

  But the reason why it is the winning number rather than the winning number is because...

 There is no major risk at present, but there may be future consequences.

I don't know the specific situation of Xu Yuanzhen at the moment, but after thinking about it, Lei Jun decided to try this way to win the lottery.

While walking in hiding, he recalled the terrain of this mountainous area and slowly found the area around Songye Ridge.

The sky eyepiece lit up, and the huge illusory pupils flashed in the sky.

Lei Jun's insight at this moment is comparable to that of some three-day monks.

Although due to his own concealment, he was not able to show his full strength, but after spending more time, he still discovered something.

In a snowy valley under Songye Ridge, it seems peaceful, except for the continuous accumulation of ice and snow.

 But the direction of spiritual energy here has changed slightly.

Lei Jun remained calm and approached quietly.

 He first climbed to the top of Songye Ridge.

Here, a descendant of the Jiangzhou Lin tribe who practices the Confucian tradition of divine archery is lurking.

Monks in the Shenshe lineage mostly have keen perceptions and sharp insights, especially after reaching the fourth level of the heavenly mind eye realm, everyone is like this.

If you specifically practice methods to further enhance perception and insight based on the mind's eye, the advantage in this aspect will be even stronger.

But the children of the Lin tribe are not as good as Lei Jun in this regard.

Especially his hiding skills are far worse than Lei Jun.

Quietly, Lei Jun reached the opponent's side, then clasped the opponent's head and neck with both hands and twisted it.

 He quietly put down the limp body, then went down the mountain and entered the snow valley.

Snow Valley has been disguised by some magic methods. It doesn't look abnormal from the outside, but there is something special inside.

　　A variety of sacrificial utensils such as 簠, 簋, 笾, and 苋 were laid out, and a classical sacrificial ceremony was clearly taking place.

There were not many people performing the ritual, only five. The leader was a young-looking woman.

The Tianshi Mansion had too many dealings with the Lin clan in Jiangzhou. Lei Jun knew just by looking at the profile that it was Lin Qing, the daughter of Lin Che. Among the younger generation of monks in Jiangzhou, she was one of the best after Lin Zhen and Lin Lang. 1. It is possible to live within three days of reaching 100 years old.

Although there are few Lin clan disciples here, the rituals are grand and formal.

 In the central place where the main sacrifice is held, a copper tripod is placed. Green smoke is lingering in the tripod, and the sky above the tripod vaguely turns into a scene of mountains and rivers.

 Most of the methods have no secrets for Lei Jun now. Even if he cannot understand the details in a short time, he can understand the general idea after observation. As expected, the Lin clan is trying to block the "portal" to the void above Dahei Mountain.

It is difficult for them to have a second backup plan in addition to the Longgu Ridge side. They quietly set up another stall on the Songye Ridge side.

However, Songye Ridge is new, unlike Longgu Ridge, which has been in operation for a long time. This means that the ceremony for Lin Qing and others is still in its infancy.

Then, there is the possibility of doing the opposite.

The winning ticket mentioned that he would come to Songye Ridge first and then return to Daheishan. It seemed that he would land here... Lei Jun calmly took out a metal guide rail and raised his finger to Lin Qing.

 The next moment, the air between the two people seemed to twist and stir up waves.

"Snapped!"

 “Bang!”

Lin Qing was focused on the ritual, and inevitably missed the surrounding movements, so she kept an eye on the Lin tribe's marksmen who relied more on the top of the mountain.

At this moment, before she could make any move, the white clothes on her body suddenly turned black, as if they were soaked in ink.

The black clothes expanded outward, as if to form an ink mountain to cover and protect Lin Qing.

However, before Moshan was completely erected and was still in the stage of expanding outward, it cracked with a "pop" and turned into fragments.

 Fortunately, Mo Shan bought a moment, so that Lin Qing had time to fly out another protective treasure that looked like an inkstone.

But the inkstone was directly shattered with a "clang" sound.

Lin Qing herself had time to react, and while moving to dodge, she turned her head and saw a tall Taoist priest wearing a crimson robe.

 Tianshi Mansion, Lei Jun!

Lin Qing was very familiar with the appearance of the visitor.

 But what Lei Jun was holding was unfamiliar to her.

Just when Lin Qing warned other people of the same race to be careful and planned to contact her father Lin Che...

"boom!"

The daughter of the leader of the Lin tribe who just turned around had a big hole in her chest and abdomen.

 The wounds on her back were even more terrifying.

Even though he was protected by the aura of awe-inspiring force, he was still unable to resist the bombardment of Lei Jun's second Yuanci Sword Pill.

He guessed that Lin Qing, as Lin Che's daughter, had few protective treasures on her body, so he decided to fight quickly and sent two Yuanci Sword Pills to the opponent.

It is indeed a good Confucian treasure. It can vaguely detect the movement of the condensed power of his Yuan Magnetism and respond quickly.

This is related to the fact that Lei Jun's shot was relatively close this time.

On the other hand, at this distance, his accuracy is very guaranteed.

 Lin Qing didn't even have the chance to consider whether to engage in close combat with Lei Jun or to distance herself from him. She was directly hit and thrown backwards.

She possesses the foundation of the Holy Body. In addition to her rapid progress in cultivation, she is also famous for her practical fighting skills.

 But now there is no chance for her to take action...

In the midst of lightning and flint, this proud woman of the sixth heaven realm of the Jiangzhou Lin tribe died without closing her eyes, her blood flowing all over the ground.

The other Lin tribe disciples were shocked by the sudden change, but they quickly recovered.

 But they were not as strong as Lin Qing, and they were all quickly eliminated by Lei Jun.

Lei Jun moved without any pause. While putting away the metal guide rail, he quickly used the dark side of the Book of Heaven to deal with the scene.

 But do not destroy the sacrifice.

 He walked to the bronze tripod and quickly wrote complex runes with his fingers in the air.

The talisman patterns flashed with brilliance and left traces in the air. After the shape was stable, they were accurately printed on the copper tripod.

Upon seeing this, Lei Jun immediately turned around and walked away, disappearing into the wind and snow.

 Either the father and daughter are connected, or they have been paying attention to the rituals and rituals in Songye Ridge.

The Songye Ridge area was also quietly shielded by Lei Jun's power of magnetism, but Lin Che, the leader of the Jiangzhou Lin Clan over Longgu Ridge in the distance, was still slightly shaken.

 He glanced in the direction of Songye Ridge.

It seems peaceful there.

Lin Che was not sure what happened there, but he felt something was different in his heart.

In this case, the truth is unknown, but it means that something has indeed happened. The reason why it feels minor is because there are experts on the other side interfering!

Ke Lin Che has no time to do anything at the moment.

Just as he glanced towards Songye Ridge, golden light shone before his eyes, and he was almost engulfed by the golden light.

In the sky above Longgu Ridge, real fire has been completely unleashed.

The half-gold and half-green Tai Chi Yin and Yang diagram shines in all directions, and the Yin and Yang complement each other, creating the image of dragons and tigers singing together.

"…Crazy woman!" Lin Che wanted to ask Lin Yuwei to go and see the situation, but at the moment he had to deal with someone who was about to go crazy first.

In the Snow Valley of Songye Ridge, the ceremony is still going on, but it has completely changed.

 With no one presiding over it, the twisted ritual ceremony seemed like a wild horse running wild.

The bronze tripod kept trembling in place, and cracks began to appear centered on the talisman pattern on the tripod, and continued to expand to the surrounding areas.

 In the end, the bronze tripod completely collapsed and the fragments flew in all directions.

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the chaotic ritual completely collapsed at this moment.

There is a brilliance that rises from the snow valley at the foot of Songye Ridge and goes straight into the sky.

 Snow valleys trembled, avalanches began, mountain peaks collapsed, and the earth cracked.

 The flow of spiritual energy in the earth's veins is in chaos.

 Similar to the earlier turmoil in Longguling.

The mountains are undulating, as if there are angry dragons rolling around underground, causing the ground to shake in all directions.

One of the underground "raging dragons" reaches the Daheishan Mountains in the distance.

The Daheishan, which was silent a moment ago, was also shaken at this time.

However, Daheishan did not crack or collapse.

 It's just the aura of heaven and earth centered on it, and the whole changes.

 The wind and snow calmed down almost instantly and disappeared without a trace.

 The heavy clouds in the sky have also dissipated, and the afternoon sunlight has dispersed from the sky.

The spiritual energy is condensed to form a pillar of air that looks like a substance, standing on the top of Daheishan Mountain and connecting the heaven and the earth.

At the top of the mountain, at the edge of the air column, the void rippled. At this moment, it seemed like real ripples spreading to all sides.

 Surrounding the air column, forming a somewhat fuzzy boundary.

 After Lei Jun left Songye Ridge, he rushed back to the vicinity of Dahei Mountain without stopping.

 He did not approach rashly the first time.

Although the appearance is a bit weird, it should be the "portal" to the void that Lin Che has longed for.

 The question is, what next?

 There was a sudden change in Daheishan, but Xu Yuanzhen did not show up.

 Around the mountainous area, there are no so-called third-grade opportunities and fourth-grade opportunities mentioned in the lottery.

 So, you want me to come in too?

I hope it's not easy to get in but hard to get out. If the senior sister and I are imprisoned together, the people in the Lin clan will laugh out loud... Lei Jun took a deep breath.

At this moment, there was another figure flying in the air in the distance, also coming towards Daheishan.

 An old man with Confucianism.

It was Lin Likong, the family member of the Youzhou Lin tribe who had escaped to the seventh heaven realm before.

It's just that Lin Likong looked a little embarrassed at the moment. He no longer had the elegant posture before. His clothes were stained with blood and he didn't bother to change. His spirit was even more dispirited. It was obvious that those monsters just now still caused this old man to suffer.

 But he did not bother to recuperate and hurried back to Daheishan, where he was shocked to see a sudden change happen before his eyes.

“There is something wrong with the monster in Dakong Temple, and there is also something wrong with Jiangzhou's ritual?!”

 The injury reduced Lin Likong's perception, but when he saw this situation, he immediately became alert.

 "On the green mountains of pines and cypresses, the city..." Although the enemy has not been found yet, Lin Likong started chanting in advance.

 A master of Confucian chanting who has reached the divine realm in the seventh heaven can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, communicate with nature, and call for wind and rain without opening his mouth, but the effectiveness is not as good as speaking formally.

Lin Likong is currently injured and does not dare to save trouble when his strength is not as good as normal, so he is more careful at this time.

But before he finished his poem, he saw a tiny flash of lightning in the distance!

Lin Likong has already seen pines and cypresses and green mountains in front of him to protect him, and at the same time, the city is gradually taking shape.

but…

"boom-"

The explosion was dull, and it sounded like only one sound, but it seemed like several sounds stacked together.

And accompanied by the sound, there was an earth-shattering roar of thunder and fire!

The city, which was still illusory, simply disappeared into thin air.

 The tall pines and cypresses have broken trunks.

The towering green mountain has a hole in the center, leaving a clear hole that runs from front to back.

 Three.

Lin Likong, who was behind the cover of pines and cypresses and green mountains, also had three big holes in his body.

　One was incomplete and flew past his body, leaving only a semicircular gap in his side and knocking off one of his arms.

 The other one was very complete. It hit the chest and abdomen of the old man in Confucian robes, with a huge hole opened, and the wound was **** and black.

There is another one that makes Lin Likong particularly incomplete. By chance, it hits Lin Likong's nose and mouth...

　　While completely blowing back the unfinished verses of the great Confucian, his head was also blown away.

 Far away, on a snow-capped mountain, Lei Jun was sitting cross-legged, taking deep breaths to restore his lost mana.

Over his head, three metal rails formed the shape of a "pin", hovering together in mid-air.

(PS: The selected verses in this chapter come from "Two Elegies of Zhang Zuocheng" by Li Duan of the Tang Dynasty. The whole poem is as follows: "The cold water is low, and the clear wind comes out of the morning. Birds come to hurt Jiafu, and the horse immediately buries Teng Gong. On the green mountains of pines and cypresses, In the daytime of the city, the present and the past are separated, only the moon shines together. The hook that gathered the misfortune was missing, and the sword that caused the disaster suddenly flew away. There was no reason to bow to the sun, and empty memories returned to heaven. The gatekeepers saw and buried, and the palace officials knew Give him clothes. After the mourning in the east hall, the old ministers are rare from now on.")
