Chapter 171 Liar
The way of practice is difficult and difficult.
The further you go, the more difficult and dangerous it is.
Yuanshen Realm is the most dangerous level in front of countless monks.
It is also the first hurdle of life and death on the road of practice.
Breaking through the Tianmen Realm to the Refining Space Realm, although it is dangerous and disturbed by inner demons, but the inner demons are not strong, so there is no danger to life.
But Yuanshen Realm is different.
At the peak of the Sky Refining Realm, practitioners at this time have the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, surpassing ordinary people and being powerful.
The danger of the inner demon has also increased because of this.
Not to mention breaking through the Primordial Spirit Realm, one needs to open the key points in the brain, dissolve the fragile soul body, and condense the Yin God from the soul.
The danger in this is that if there is a mistake in any link, it can range from a loss of consciousness and turn into an idiot from then on, or from a broken soul, from which the soul will fly away and the body will disappear.
Kong Ning is not disturbed by demons, he only needs to carefully guide the surging demon power in his body to hit the key points in his brain and try to transform into a yin spirit, and he is already frightened and nervous.
After all, in the process of the huge monster force hitting the key points in the brain, every time the impact, the force may be poorly controlled, resulting in excessive force, and the sea of consciousness will be washed away.
He sat cross-legged in the void, his face was ugly, and his head was covered with cold sweat.
And the dozen or so ghosts standing around guarding his existence silently.
Outside the side house, the wind is miserable.
But these dark winds were not brought by the ghosts in the house.
Under the cover of the illusion arranged by Kong Ning in advance, the air mechanism in the house is covered, and the outside world cannot know the situation inside.
The cold wind in the yard was caused by sudden changes in the weather.
On the fourth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the temperature in Hejian Mansion, which had been hot all summer, dropped sharply overnight.
The cold wind howled across the land.
People who were dressed in cool clothes yesterday all woke up shivering and put on thick clothes.
In just one night, Hejian Prefecture completed the climate change from summer to late autumn.
In the cold wind, people's breath turned into white mist.
It's almost like the winter season.
The sudden drop in temperature made the city much deserted.
The lively atmosphere brought about by the black lotus envoy killing demons yesterday died down simultaneously with the sudden attack of the cold wind.
People are all busy preparing for the winter, walking on the street, shrinking their necks and looking around vigilantly, returning to their usual appearance.
The hustle and bustle of Hejian Mansion lasted for a day and then ended.
Even though there was news that a demon went to the Black Lotus Sect General Altar to provoke them last night, but was frightened away by Grand Marshal Shangyang, the residents of the city could no longer get excited.
After all, this kind of gossip does not know whether it is true or not. Moreover, the mere deed of a demon who came to the door but was frightened away was far from what the Black Lotus Sect had advertised in the past.
What caused such a big commotion yesterday was mainly due to the huge catfish carcass twenty feet long, which had too much visual impact for ordinary people.
Although the catfish carcass was blown away by a gust of evil wind...
Hejian Prefecture has returned to its former deserted and dead silence.
Many of the disciples of the Black Lotus Sect who were blown up and down by the monster yesterday were injured.
The street parade originally scheduled for today had to be cancelled.
Otherwise, according to the original plan of the Black Lotus Sect, taking advantage of yesterday's lively momentum, they would send people to parade the streets in the city today and distribute talisman water to strengthen the sect's momentum.
And if the Black Lotus Sect doesn't enter the city, the city will be even less lively.
In the deserted teahouse, people were drinking hot tea, but they didn't even whisper to each other. They were silent with each other, quietly listening to the storyteller above.
But in such a deserted cold wind, there was a gossip that gradually spread in the city.
And it spread more and more widely, being known by countless mortals.
"Have you heard? It wasn't the envoy of the Black Lotus Sect that killed the demons before, but the city god of our Hejian Mansion!"
"Master Chenghuang has always been efficacious, and his power is invincible. The catfish demon was detected by Ye Youshen just after entering Hejian Mansion, and then Master Chenghuang personally beheaded him..."
"I heard that it was the civil and military judge who went out of the city to kill the catfish spirit under the order of the city god. It's not a black lotus envoy at all..."
"I heard that the people of the Black Lotus Sect are shameless and pretend to be credited. That catfish demon was not killed by the Black Lotus Sacred Envoy at all!"
"...Hey, have you heard? The one who killed the catfish demon before was the military judge under the seat of our Lord City God! The night before yesterday, someone saw it with his own eyes! Later, somehow, the Black Lotus Sect took the credit ..."
"I think so, the Black Lotus Sect holds a lecture meeting every month, and kills demons in public. But the last time they killed were little demons, how had they ever killed such a terrifying twenty-foot-long monster... "
"If the Black Lotus Sect really has the strength to kill this kind of monster, why didn't they kill it for everyone to see?"
"My second uncle's friend happened to come to Hejian Mansion that night to do business, but he missed closing the city gate, so he could only hide in the wild and wait for dawn. I happened to see the scene where the catfish demon was killed... the person who killed the demon at that time, Majestic, wearing a judge's robe, shouting loudly to kill demons under the order of the City God, he is not a holy envoy of the Black Lotus Sect at all..."
"I've never heard of the Black Lotus Holy Envoy before...it must be because the Daoist Master is not there. The saint is a fairy from the sky who came down to earth. She doesn't understand the dangers of the world and was deceived by cunning people."
"That's right! I've also heard that the Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus is a deceitful person! With his sharp mouth, he deceived the saint!"
"The Daoist Master Palm Print came back suddenly last night, because he realized that something was wrong, so he rushed back to deal with it!"
"This Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus is indeed a liar!"
"It is said that he is a rascal from other places, who knows a little tricks! But he has no real skills! He came to our Hejian Mansion to bluff and deceive."
"I don't want any face at all, it's just disgusting!"
Rumors in the city continued to spread along with the howling of the cold wind.
It quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.
The more repressed the world is, the more enthusiastic people are about this kind of gossip.
Soon, the rumor spread like the wind throughout the city.
And it's getting worse.
More and more "relatives and friends" saw the scene of the catfish demon being killed that night, and they must be the judge of the Town God's Temple to kill the demon.
As for the Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus who appeared suddenly, he is a liar who deceives the world and steals his name.
Otherwise, three days have passed, why hasn't that liar appeared yet?
If it was really the catfish demon who killed him, why didn't he show up to justify his name now?
Moreover, the Black Lotus Sect main altar was also silent, and did not respond to the rumors in the city.
It must be the palm print master came back, and the liar saw that the palm print master was not easy to deceive, so he was scared and ran away.
As for the fact that the saint was cheated, it must not be said clearly, so the Black Lotus Sect decided to calm down and pretend to be dead!
That Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus is indeed a liar!
