Chapter 382 What Does It Have to Do with Me?
On the second day after Gong Buyu's visit, Shen Yuan secretly left the imperial capital and went to Yingzhou.
He did not forget that the four of the six Luofeng Heavens, led by Niu Tou, had suppressed Yingzhou for several years, and the underworld could cross the boundary and enter the Xuanhuang Realm at any time.
If it were not for the fact that he needed a certain amount of time to recuperate after slaughtering more than 30 demon realms in a row, Shen Yuan would have arrived in Yingzhou by now.
Shen Yuan's power of suppressing all parties and slaughtering demon realms was still there. Except for Gong Buyu and others, no one knew that the Supreme Taoist had left the imperial capital.
Haizhou, the coast of the East China Sea.
With the arrival of the revival of heaven and earth, the entire Xuanhuang Realm has expanded nearly ten times, including the vastest sea area.
The East China Sea is adjacent to the territory of Daxia. Its sea area is rich in resources and has produced countless aquatic creatures. Even successful practitioners dare not rashly set foot in the sea area.
Even if the territory of Daxia was not protected by the luck of humanity, the aquatic creatures born in the boundless waters of the East China Sea would have invaded the territory of Haizhou long ago.
Shen Yuan stood high in the sky, overlooking the coastal area below, and could not help but frowning.
The closer he got to the East China Sea, the thinner the luck of humanity became, and the luck of the aquatic creatures in the depths of the East China Sea replaced it.
Although it was not as good as the Daxia Dynasty, which had gathered in the land of the 18 states at this moment, the luck of the aquatic creatures should not be underestimated.
Shen Yuan easily identified the source of the luck of the aquatic creatures.
"The head of the four seas, the common master of the aquatic creatures in the world, the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea!"
Within the territory of the Humane Dynasty, the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas was revered as the master of the aquatic creatures in the world, and its status was extremely respected.
But if you look at the entire Xuanhuang Realm and even the land of the heavens, the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas is the real master of the aquatic creatures, because the vast four seas are the base camp of the aquatic creatures.
The number of aquatic creatures controlled by the Four Seas Dragon Palace far exceeds that of inland waters. The Four Seas Dragon Kings of all generations were conferred by the Heavenly Court, but were not bound by the incense of the human race.
Even though the Four Du Dragon Kings have the same status as the Four Seas Dragon Kings, they are restricted by the human dynasty and their status is slightly lower than that of the Four Seas Dragon Kings.
Among the Four Seas Dragon Palaces, the East Sea Dragon Palace is the undisputed leader. In its heyday, the East Sea Dragon King once competed with the Northern Dipper Five Qi Water Deity Star Lord for the position of the main god of the water department.
However, because Zhulong disturbed time and space and was killed by Yuanshi Da Tianzun, his disaster affected the dragon clan, causing the Four Seas Dragon Palace to be suppressed by the Heavenly Court, and the East Sea Dragon King lost the opportunity to be the main god of the water department.
In the following tens of thousands of years, the power of the East Sea Dragon Palace continued to decline, but its foundation was still extremely terrifying, enough to be called the overlord of the Xuanhuang Realm.
Even after the connection between heaven and earth was cut off for thousands of years, Shen Yuan could still feel the breath of more than three fairyland masters in the distant East Sea Dragon Palace.
"The Great Xia Dynasty has declined to this point, and has even been divided up by various forces in the past few years.
The East Sea Dragon Palace, which is adjacent to Haizhou, has such a powerful strength, but has never offended Great Xia? This seems to reveal something unusual!"
Shen Yuan looked at the direction of the East Sea Dragon Palace meaningfully, and then shook his head slightly.
"Forget it, no matter what the Four Seas Dragon Palace's purpose is, there is no need to provoke it before it is revealed."
"However, opening a space channel above the outer sea territory is still too noisy, and it will inevitably attract the attention of the strong men of the East Sea Dragon Palace. It is more appropriate to fly directly in the air."
The right hand gently stroked the chest, and the mysterious Dao seal quietly appeared.
Harmony with light and dust!
Shen Yuan obtained the Dao rhyme from the origin of Luotian Realm. Although he lost the nearly omnipotent power in the realm after leaving Luotian Realm, the remaining part of the Dao rhyme can also provide Shen Yuan with a very high hidden status.
With the Dao rhyme of "Harmony with the Light and Dust" blessing himself, Shen Yuan's figure seemed to blend into the light of the sun, and he rushed towards Yingzhou silently.
As the territory of Daxia expanded due to the revival of heaven and earth, Shen Yuan flew over the vast sea for two days.
The farther away from the territory of Daxia, the more Shen Yuan could feel the chaos and disorder in the outer sea.
Practitioners from other countries roamed the outer sea and plundered wantonly, and the demons kept tens of thousands of residents on the islands as food.
The steel warships that once roamed the sea sank into the deep sea, and large military bases turned into ruins.
In front of the completely revived practice world, even the nuclear weapons that humans are proud of are so fragile. The revived heaven and earth completely destroyed the overseas order.
After seeing all this, Shen Yuan finally understood why those cultivators who inherited the evil and demonic heritage of the outside world always wanted to flee overseas.
The chaos and disorder here is a paradise for evil cultivators.
The light of escape quickly passed through the sea, and just as it was about to approach Yingzhou, an island appeared in front of Shen Yuan and he slowly stopped.
This island is located in the East China Sea and can be called a medium-sized island, with hundreds of thousands of residents living on it.
In the center of the island, there is a huge statue carved from a mountain.
The statue has six faces and six arms, and its face is either beautiful or ferocious. Looking directly at its face, one can even feel its majestic gaze.
"An evil god!"
The so-called evil god is a god who is not conferred by the Heavenly Court or the Humane Dynasty and is worshipped with the flesh and blood of living beings.
The true spirit of a god who eats the flesh and blood of living beings will be polluted by the resentment of living beings, which will erode the status of the god over time and make it more and more crazy and extreme.
If such a god is not protected by the righteous law, it will often lead believers to start large-scale blood sacrifices, rapidly improve their cultivation, and become more and more depraved. In the end, they will either be killed by powerful cultivators, or their true spirit will be annihilated and their soul will collapse.
In the territory of the Daxia Dynasty, evil gods are absolutely taboo.
But in this chaotic East China Sea, it seems not surprising that there are not even a thousand but eight hundred such evil gods.
But the evil god that Shen Yuan discovered at this moment was somewhat different. Shen Yuan sensed a hint of underworld aura in him.
It was obviously not a ghost, but it was tainted with the aura of the underworld, which made Shen Yuan a little curious about this evil god.
In front of this statue carved from the mountain peak, a grand blood sacrifice of a hundred people was being held.
The crazy believers who were bewitched by the evil god held daggers and chanted the name of the Six Desire Demon God loudly, and then tried to slit their own throats to sacrifice their lives for the god.
However, not all believers are willing to sacrifice their lives. Under the threat of death, many believers still wake up from madness, and Dongyu on the mountain is one of them.
He showed fear and wanted to resist, but the sacrifice had already begun. No one could resist under the evil god's gaze. Dongyu on the mountain could only watch as he slit his throat with a dagger.
At this moment, a figure in white clothes like an immortal slowly fell in the sky, and then a great will came suddenly.
The statue carved on the mountain collapsed in an instant, and a body of a hundred-foot-tall god appeared from the statue. Six faces glared at Shen Yuan:
"Who are you to interfere with the sacrifice of the Demon God of Six Desires?"
"A mere evil god in the God Refining Realm dares to call himself a demon god?"
Shen Yuan chuckled, slowly raised his index finger, and a sword light burst out from his fingertips and easily chopped the tall god's body into pieces.
The body of the tall god collapsed, revealing one of the ever-changing masks.
"Who are you!"
Mask screamed.
In the sea area with a radius of thousands of miles, although his cultivation in the God Refining Realm is not the strongest, he is still considered to be a rare opponent.
Shen Yuan chopped him into pieces with just a flash of sword light. He didn't even use his magical powers. His strength was unfathomable.
Shen Yuan didn't respond. Instead, he glanced at the mountain peak behind the mask. He gently raised his right hand and the whole world was locked in an instant.
The next moment, dozens of streams of light rose from every corner of the mountain and fell into his hands, looking like masks of different shapes.
"Leave the main body behind to attract my attention. If you want to hide these clones that contain part of your will, there are some tricks."
Using his right hand, all the masks shattered instantly.
"It's a pity, it's useless."
Brushing away the dust in his palms, Shen Yuan looked at the remaining body with interest.
"Tell me your origins and I might be able to spare your life."
The strange mask's eyes were filled with fear.
Those mask incarnations all came from his natal magical power. Before activation, they were almost the same as ordinary masks, but they were still easily seen through by Shen Yuan.
This method was beyond his knowledge.
"The little god's name is Mian Lingqi, and he comes from the realm of Yingzhou."
"Yingzhou?"
Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows lightly, but he didn't expect that before he arrived at Yingzhou, he would meet the evil god related to Yingzhou.
"Yingzhou is full of evil gods and worshipers. With your cultivation, as long as you avoid the Zhengshen sect, you should still be able to sit in Yingzhou and enjoy the worship of millions of people. Why did you come to this desolate island from Yingzhou?"
Mian Lingqi's face showed a hint of fear for the rest of his life.
"The Little God once occupied an area in Yingzhou and reluctantly reached an agreement with several gods of the Zhengshen sect to not invade each other. However, just a few years ago, unprecedented turmoil occurred in the legendary Huangquan.
The underworld that only exists in the netherworld actually appears in the real world. Countless souls in the underworld cross the boundary between life and death and enter the Xuanhuang Realm. The terrifying ghosts and gods want to drag the entire Yingzhou into the underworld.
A war broke out between the Shinto gods and the underworld ghosts and gods, which affected the entire land of Yingzhou. The endless stream of underworld ghosts and gods had the upper hand, and even the Shinto lord who had not yet fully recovered could not resist it. "
"Seeing that the situation was not good, the little god wanted to seek refuge with the ghosts and gods of the underworld. Unexpectedly, the ghosts and gods of the underworld claimed that they needed to bathe in the underworld before they could join the ghosts and gods of the underworld.
I almost got swallowed by the underworld in my initial attempt, but later learned that only the dead can bathe in the underworld.
I had no choice but to escape from Yingzhou and come to this island to protect the people on the island and enjoy some blood sacrifices. "
After a slight pause, Mian Lingqi quickly added:
"Master Qi, the little god is very restrained in blood sacrifices. A similar blood sacrifice of a hundred people is only held once a month. In exchange for this, I have to help these islanders fight against the intrusion of demons and other evil gods.
If it weren't for me, the entire island might have turned into a paradise for monsters. "
Shen Yuan did not comment on Mian Lingqi's words, and his mind had already fallen on the ghosts and gods of the underworld he mentioned.
The underworld in the underworld is the source of the underworld, and there should have been a tributary of the underworld in Yingzhou to transport the souls of the dead. It is similar to the underworld in Daxia, but the specifications are far inferior to the underworld.
The plan of the Ten Palaces of Yama to use the Yin Division as a springboard to invade the Xuanhuang Realm was broken by Shen Yuan. They focused on Yingzhou, which has a tributary of Huangquan, and wanted to use the tributary of Huangquan to enter the Xuanhuang Realm again.
Yingzhou's local Shinto was defeated. Luo Feng noticed the invasion of the underworld in six days and traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to come here to support.
There may be errors in the specific information, but generally it should be similar to what Mian Lingqi said.
After sorting out the specific information, Shen Yuan glanced at Mian Lingqi, who looked humble.
"You did very well."
Mian Lingqi was immediately overjoyed and responded repeatedly: "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
"In return, I'll give you a treat."
After the words fell, a sword light easily penetrated the facial aura and completely shattered the soul of this evil god.
On the island, everyone stared blankly at the sky. The cessation of faith made them realize that the evil god they served had fallen.
Shen Yuan looked around, waving his sleeves lightly, Yuan Qi turned into drizzle and fell, eliminating the influence of evil gods suffered by many islanders on the island.
At the same time, the talisman stained with Shen Yuan's aura sank into the depths of the island, sealing off the remnants of the wish after the death of the spiritual energy body. Shen Yuan's aura could make low-level aquatic monsters stay away from the island.
After doing all this, Shen Yuan was ready to continue heading towards Yingzhou.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the square.
"You're gone now, what should we do?"
Following the sound, the person speaking was Shan Dongyu, who was being used as the object of blood sacrifice by the spiritual energy.
At this moment, Dongyu's mind on the mountain was constantly echoing with the legends about the immortals who slayed demons and protected Taoism among the islands.
Once upon an island, an immortal appeared and killed the great demon who was protecting the island. After the immortal left, the islanders suffered heavy casualties. After the immortal returned, he was filled with shame and spread his spiritual practice on the island to help the islanders rebuild their homes.
After some islanders practiced cultivation, they secretly plotted to kill the immortal to obtain the treasure stored by the immortal. Now they have become the owner of one of the overseas islands.
These so-called young immortals who slay demons and protect the Tao often take it as their own duty to save all peoples. As long as they force each other with righteousness, they will definitely get benefits.
Thinking of this, Dongyu's expression on the mountain became more ferocious, and he shouted loudly towards Shen Yuan:
"The Demon God of Six Desires protected hundreds of thousands of people on the island, and you killed the Demon God and left. What should we, the islanders who have lost their shelter, do?"
As soon as these words came out, others immediately echoed:
"That's right! When you slay demons and protect the Tao, have you ever considered our feelings?"
"Did we ask you to save us?"
"If you really want to save people, just stay on the island to protect us and teach us magic to fight against monsters."
"What's the difference between just killing the demon god who protects us and leaving us alone, and killing us?"
Shen Yuan looked down at the entire island, and his interested voice sounded in everyone's ears:
"You all think this way?"
The voice seemed to go straight into the soul, and instinctive responses rang out from the mouths of countless islanders.
"yes!"
"That's how it should be."
"You should teach immortal magic to compensate us."
Continuous responses echoed from every corner of the island.
After a while, Shen Yuan's voice sounded again.
"I only want to kill evil spirits. When did I say I would save you?"
"What does your death have to do with me?"
Deep underground on the island, the talisman stained with Shen Yuan's aura suddenly shattered, and Shen Yuan's figure turned into a ray of light and galloped towards Yingzhou.
On the island, curses resounded throughout the world, and no one knew that without the restraints of the talisman, the remaining wish power of the evil god's body in the realm of refining gods was accelerating to spread towards the surrounding sea area.
The demons and evil gods seemed to have smelled something delicious and were speeding towards the island.
