Chapter 155

Everyone inside and outside Heishui Town looked up at the thick black clouds in the sky.

Especially the golden-armored giants, their consciousness surged, and someone immediately said inappropriately:
"The Lord of Black Water is breaking through, Shangguan, shall we take advantage of his unpreparedness and capture and kill him?"

After saying these words, the rest of the people, including Chenghuang, all looked quietly at the ghost who spoke.

Without the need for the Golden Armored City God to make a sound, someone immediately sneered and said, "Catch it by surprise? If you think you can do it, you can attack on your own. If it works, we will definitely not compete with you for this credit."

When the person who made the sound heard it, the words in his mouth froze for a moment, but then he snorted again:
"There are nine people on my side. Even if the Heishui Guanzhu really succeeded in breaking through and became a sixth-rank Taoist, Shangguan was also a sixth-rank Taoist priest at the beginning, and now he has the blessing of dragon energy, how can he be no match for him!"

The other seventh-rank ghosts and gods, no one responded to each other, but sneered one after another.

Because everyone understood that the guy who spoke was not an honest person, but a villain.

This guy is jealous that the master of the black water is breaking through to become the sixth rank. Once he breaks through, he will prolong his life for a hundred years, increase his skill greatly, and continue his path.

On the other hand, these ghosts and gods, even the golden-armored city god who still belonged to the sixth rank in the middle, had already collapsed and died, leaving only a group of ghosts, lifespan locked, and no chance of progress.

At this time, there was a muffled thunderous sound, like the roar of a giant bell:
"How many years have passed, and today I can see a friend again, set up a furnace and set up a tripod, and ascend to the sixth rank."

This voice came from the mouth of the golden-armored giant. Its face was blurred and its voice was indifferent, but from the words, others could clearly perceive that its words contained obvious emotions and were not malicious.

The seventh-rank ghosts and gods who were still jealous of the Lord of the Black Water Temple just now shut up and dared not speak any more.

The golden-armored giant looked around at the group of seventh-rank ghosts and gods he brought, and said in a buzzing voice:

"A certain priority task is to protect the population of the three towns, the secondary task is to capture and kill the exotic lizards, and the third task is to capture the Lord of the Black Water Temple for questioning."

It closed its golden eyes, sat in the air, and continued to explain:
"Keep this town well, the secret of the dinosaurs is about to be completely integrated into this place. The popularity of this place is mixed, and it will definitely attract other eighth-rank or even seventh-rank dinosaurs. Although the will of the dinosaur world has dissipated, after the induction of resentment Next, the creatures in that foreign land will be extremely hostile to Taoists and mortals, and you must never put one in."

"Yes, Shangguan!" The echo sounded immediately, and the other eight ghosts and gods all bowed to express their obedience.

The golden-armored giant closed his eyes, and said again:

"Since the Heishui Taoist is capturing and killing the sixth-grade fear lizard, let him fight with it first. If he loses, it will be much easier to capture and kill the other generation later. If he wins, this person is the sixth grade Taoist Pin, if your personality is still higher than that, it is not your responsibility and I should just do your own thing well."

Although the golden-armored giant was also a Taoist priest of the sixth rank at the beginning, it has already died physically after all, leaving only a mass of soul alive, and its soul level still belongs to the sixth rank. It is only equivalent to a fake sixth grade.

Even if it is now out of the city according to the decree and can use dragon energy, it can at most compete with the ordinary sixth-grade Zheng, and it cannot be sure of victory.

The seventh-rank ghosts and gods breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the golden-armored giant personally ordering, and said one after another:
"Shangguan is wise!"

The actions of the Blackwater temple masters chasing down and eating the dinosaurs were clearly seen by them.Especially according to the information in the county, the dinosaur was a quasi-rank five creature before.

This Blackwater temple master can hunt down and kill the opponent, and use the opponent's food to ascend to Taoism. Once he succeeds in advancing, he must be an extraordinary, extraordinary Taoist priest!
While the ghosts and gods of Qianjun were discussing, just below them, in Heishui Town, many Taoist mortals also looked up at the black cloud of insects outside the town, all stunned.

"Is that the temple master?"

"Listen to the words of the ghosts and gods above, there is no doubt that it is the master of the temple!"

"Didn't you say that today you are going to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards for the high-ranking Taoist boys? Why did you become the master of the temple again? The old man is going to break through and advance?"

The sound of chattering and chattering resounded in every place where there were people in Heishui Town.

There are also many people who look at the earth-shaking changes in the outside world and the appearance of the dinosaur just now, with anxious expressions on their faces.Fortunately, a group of golden-armored giants were sitting on top of their heads. After a little explanation from the experienced Taoist boy, many people also recognized the ghosts and gods of Qianjun, and their minds were a little more at ease.

Among them, it is next to the stone house where Yu Lie used to rent.

A pretty figure, leaning on the eaves next door, also looked at the black cloud swarm high in the sky.

However, she was different from other people in the town who looked either excited or terrified. She seemed rather lazy, staring at each other, and yawning, as if she had just finished work.

This person is Yu Lie's landlady.

The landlady took a few glances at the swarm of black clouds and worms, then glanced at the ghosts and gods above her head, and then changed to a more comfortable position and lay down on the eaves, outlining her graceful figure, her waist corseted and her chest swollen.

"You'll be wise." The landlady also closed her eyes, muttering to herself as if in a dream:

"But I didn't expect this old guy to play so big! There are creatures of the first six ranks directly hidden in the secret realm. Wait, look at the fearful appearance of those ghosts and gods. Isn't that big lizard not just a rank six?"

The landlady suddenly opened her eyes again, carefully looked at the swarm of insects in the sky, and secretly said:
"Probably yes, no wonder this old guy wants to include my old lady in the town and lock her up so she can't go out easily..."

Yu Lie guessed wrong at the beginning. The landlady next door to him was not just a middle-rank Taoist boy, nor even a high-rank Taoist boy or eighth-rank Taoist that he secretly guessed later.

This woman "has an affair" with the Lord of Black Water, and is most likely a seventh-rank Taoist, or even more than that.

outside world.

Yu Lie and She Shuangbai stood still, watching with their own eyes that the master of the Black Water Temple killed the sixth-grade dinosaur, like killing chickens and dogs, cut off the capture, and then wrapped up in the swarm of insects to eat.

Don't mention how shocked the expressions of the two were.

Among them, in addition to being shocked, Yu Lie also had a look of great joy in his heart:
"This old guy, no, old man! So his strength is so strong. From this point of view, it is really possible for him to break through to a sixth-rank Taoist priest!"

If it wasn't for the presence of She Shuangbai beside her, and the ghosts and gods of Qianjun in the distance, Yu Lie would almost have laughed out loud, beaming with joy.

Although he has been expelled from the sect by the Lord of Black Water, but he can't stand his shameless face, so he can be posted again.

And judging from the situation at the time of granting the talisman, the master of Heishui Temple is obviously in his heart, and there are others listed by him.

And most importantly, Yu Lie was thinking about the action of "cutting the dragon's feet and chewing the dragon's meat" just now by the master of Heishui, his eyes flickered, and he realized the reason why the other party expelled him in the first place, and it was self-defeating.

He muttered in his heart:
"I said that I peeled the skin too hard, and I didn't look at you. In order to be promoted, even the spine was refined into a Gu worm, and it was pulled out on the spot, blood stained."

In addition to Yu Lie and the two who were in shock, there were also bursts of exclamations from all around.

The master of the Black Water Temple captured and killed the sixth-grade dinosaur lizard in the sky, and blatantly refined the opponent, which could be faintly seen for hundreds of miles around.

Therefore, those other high-ranking Taoist boys who hid in the mountain forest got out again or ran back when they saw the fear lizard being captured.

Someone murmured: "Monastery Master Blackwater is so powerful?"

"Nonsense, if he is not powerful, he can kill the mayor and the others like killing chickens?"

The two people who were discussing were obviously not the high-ranking Taoist boys from Heishui Town, but from the two towns next door, and their tone of voice was a little panicked when they spoke.

Some of the other high-ranking Taoist boys in Heishui Town couldn't help but burst out laughing and praised: "The Lord is always strong and mighty!"

Amidst the discussion, She Shuangbai who was beside Yu Lie looked at the sky, her mind was swaying and her eyes moved.

The other party involuntarily whispered: "People who practice Taoism should be like this."

Yu Lie was in a state of surprise, some didn't hear the other person's words clearly, and subconsciously received: "What's the matter?"

She Shuangbai narrowed her eyes slightly, restrained her mind, but replied in a deep voice: "It's nothing, I'm just shocked and admired by the Lord's actions of slaying dragons and eating meat."

Yu Lie recalled what the other party said just now. He glanced at the other party, nodded in approval, and smiled lightly, almost saying "he can replace him".

Fortunately, Yu Lie held back.Although the old gentleman treated him kindly, he had to keep in mind the principle that disaster comes from mouth.

Inside and outside of Heishui Town.

The gods and ghosts were silent, the townspeople were terrified, and the minds of the Taoist boys were swaying.

Under the eyes of everyone, the master of the Black Water Temple hid in the black cloud-like swarm of insects, and continued to eat and transform.

Such a process continued from daytime to evening, and the sound of gnawing in the sky not only did not stop, but became louder and louder.

Almost all the high-ranking Taoist boys who managed to escape from birth gathered under the Black Water Cliff in the end, waiting for the result in the black cloud of the insect swarm.

At the same time, the changes in the Heihe River Basin also began to slow down. Although the depths of the earth were still rumbling, the surface was no longer cracked and protruding.

After most of the day, Yu Lie and others stood at the foot of the Black Water Cliff, and when they looked up, there was already a wilderness in their eyes, which made them feel extremely strange.

The Heishui River itself has expanded from the original eighty or ninety feet wide to four or five hundred feet in one go, which has doubled several times.

A sharp and inhuman roar sounded from time to time within hundreds of miles, and there were faintly tall scaled things wandering in the jungle near Heishui Cliff.

Fortunately, I don't know if these dinosaurs are also born with wisdom, and they are also waiting for the result of the advancement of the master of the Black Water Temple, or because there are gods from the Qianjun County sitting on the Black Water Cliff, or it is a combination of both.

None of the eighth-rank dinosaurs dared to enter the surrounding area of ​​Heishui Cliff. As for the eighth-ranker dinosaurs who entered, they were immediately cleaned up by the higher-ranking Taoist boys.

After the grotesque lizards were hunted down, Taoist boys took scales, cut flesh, and skinned them, and made them into dry medicinal materials and stored them up.

Some people raised a bonfire and began to roast the dinosaurs, tasting the taste of this exotic creature.

An aroma of barbecue gradually wafted into the arena, making everyone who was waiting anxiously hungry.

Because Yu Lie and She Shuangbai were close to the river and far away from the jungle, it was not their turn to hunt and kill the dinosaur.

But Yu Lie had nothing to do, so he took out the tools he used to catch black snakefish, sat by the expanded Heishui River, and started his old business.

There are aquatic dinosaurs in the Heihe River, and after a while, he caught a human-sized dinosaur, dissected it on the edge of the cliff by himself, grilled the meat, and tasted the taste of this creature.

The smell of blood and fireworks rose near Heishui Cliff, and the expressions of many Taoist boys were much more at ease, as if they had escaped from the thrill of the conferring ceremony.

When twilight was about to cover the Heihe River Basin, the gods of Qianjun and the children of Heishuidao, without exception, raised their heads and looked at the surging black clouds high in the sky.

At this time, the sound of gnawing on the original masterpiece stopped abruptly.

Instead, there was another sound of breathing from the black cloud.

Under the calm, expectant, or flickering eyes of everyone, the black cloud finally cracked open like a cocoon, revealing the scene inside.

At this time, everyone's eyes widened, wanting to see the situation inside immediately.

Buzz!

I saw streaks of black light suddenly gushing out from the cracks in the black cloud swarm, hovering outside, and then the black cloud swarm one or two miles away melted layer by layer as if melting ice and snow, and poured in. in the crack.

The black cloud swarm dissipated by itself.

Seeing this scene, Yu Lie and the other Taoist boys from Heishui Town all looked delighted: "It's done!?"

The eyes of all the gods in Qianjun were also flickering, and the golden armored giant stood up abruptly.

It stands in the sky above the Dragon Qi Formation, far away towards the place where the black cloud is, bowing and saluting:

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, for stepping on the avenue, settling a furnace and setting up a tripod, and stepping into the ranks of the sixth rank since then!"

Hearing the voice of Qianjun City God, Yu Lie's heart stopped suddenly, and his heart was full of joy.

After congratulating the giant in golden armor, he took the initiative to say:

"Fellow Daoist, there have been quite a lot of changes in the Heihe River Basin this time. I would like to invite you to go back to the county town with the God to describe it. It will also be convenient for you to register for the record, wash away your grievances, and reward you for meritorious deeds. With the dragon spirit as a witness, Fellow Daoist is now at the sixth rank, so he will definitely not suffer unwarranted criticism."

Hearing this, the other eight ghosts and gods around, especially the one who spoke badly because of jealousy, all looked sideways.

Although the golden-armored giant's voice was strict, the meaning in the words was that not only did he not regard the Lord of Blackwater as a criminal, but he was still showing his favor to the other party.

Some ghosts and gods muttered to themselves: "No wonder this guy can become a county town god."

Light laughter also sounded high in the air, and its voice was old:
"Dear friends, thank you for watching the ceremony, I have been waiting for a long time."

As soon as the words fell, the huge swarm of insects in the sky completely disappeared.

Half of a huge flesh and blood skeleton was exposed, and a Taoist sat cross-legged on the ferocious skull, with black worms wriggling beside the skeleton, and wormed their way into his sleeves.

Just now, it was this Taoist who flicked his sleeves and put the huge black cloud swarm into his sleeve pockets.

This person is the Lord of the Black Water Monastery!
It's just that the current Heishui Guanzhu has a mysterious temperament all over his body, and his white hair has turned black, which is completely different from the old old man back then.

In just half a day, he reverted to his old age, he became tens of hundreds of years younger in one breath, and returned to his middle-aged appearance.On his body, only his voice and eyes are still old, leaving heavy traces of time.

The Heishui temple master who reappeared seems to have successfully transformed.He also completely lacked the madness and wantonness he had when he ate the dinosaurs. Instead, he had a calm demeanor, just like a master on the road.

The Goddess of Heishui looked down at the crowd, and after beckoning to the golden-armored giant, he asked a question:
"This god, because of the father and teacher of the poor Taoist, the Taoist court once withdrew the qualifications of the poor Taoist to enter the immortal way for absurd reasons, causing the poor Taoist to be wasted until now. Today, the poor Taoist does not rely on the dragon spirit, does not rely on the Taoist court, and takes it for himself. , enter the sixth rank, and lay down the foundation, can you be regarded as a true Taoist?"

The golden-armored giant frowned slightly, not knowing what the Lord of Black Water meant, but he still shouted in a deep voice:
"Fellow Taoists have been planning for sixty years, eating in foreign lands, and building foundations on their own, so they are naturally considered true Taoists."

Heishui Guanzhu smiled when he heard the words, but his face gradually showed a cold look.

He leaned down slightly, and asked again:

"Since this is the case, what qualifications does the Dao court in the mouth of the gods have to talk about the merits of the poor, the rewards for the poor, and the punishment for the poor?"

All the ghosts and gods in Qianjun shrank their pupils when they heard the words of the Heishui temple master, and the golden-armored giant was also stunned.

Seeing the bewildered looks of the crowd, Heishui Guanzhu burst out laughing and chanted:

"Dragon Qi and Dao Court, what do they matter to me!"

All of a sudden, the ghosts and gods above Heishui Town turned pale with fright:
"Taoist! This person is really a Taoist!"

Even Yu Lie, who was originally surprised by the success of the master of Heishui Temple, froze when he heard the other party's words, and felt a chill in his heart.
