I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 284 Six-Character Mantra

Gu Mingyue did not refute Wu Changming's words, but spoke of something unrelated:

"Fellow Daoist, you see the water in the Pond of Faith is almost full. Is our sect competition about to begin? After all, it involves the true position of the Southern Dipper and the Northern Dipper. We can't be careless. We should prepare in advance and select the candidates, so as not to waste time. Then the Water God's Conferment Ceremony will have to be postponed. Now the princes and nobles are still waiting outside, especially the master is waiting and watching. We can't delay time because of the Taoist temple competition."

Wu Changming nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but don't worry about this matter, I have my own arrangements."

"Wait, why don't you bother me? This matter is related to me." Gu Mingyue said with a smile when he heard it, like a smiling tiger.

"The ultimate goal of this competition is to decide the qualifications of the Seven Stars of the Northern Dipper and the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper. It is because of my merits in obtaining the dragon blood and the dragon essence that the ancestor has bestowed this extra opportunity on my lineage. What does it have to do with you?" Wu Changming was immediately displeased when he heard this. He raised his eyebrows and retorted.

Originally, each of the ten great celestial masters under the command of the great sage Huang Tiandao got one of the spots, and everyone competed for the remaining three spots. The previous competition of Huang Tiandao was to compete for the spot that originally belonged to Wu Changming's lineage.

But later, Wu Changming made great contributions in the fight for Dragon Essence, and the Great Sage Master gave him another chance. With the blessing of the Water God, the opportunity for this fight changed and became an extra quota granted this time.

As for the previous quota, he had already secretly decided on it and reserved it for his son, but he had already embezzled it.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what Wu Changming said, Gu Mingyue was immediately unhappy: "Junior brother, what you said is wrong. It is clearly me who won over the Pingbian Palace and asked Huang Tiandao to completely take over the Northland. In addition to your great contribution, Master gave you an extra quota. And the quota is not just for you, but for all Huang Tiandao disciples in the Northland."

"You...you...you are talking nonsense..." Wu Changming became furious when he heard this.

"Haha, there's no point in you being anxious. I have already reported this matter to my master, and he has agreed to let my lineage join the competition. So, let's discuss how to hold the competition and settle the matter as soon as possible." Gu Mingyue said with a smile.

After hearing what Gu Mingyue said, Wu Changming's face turned grim: "I don't believe that Master is so stupid. I want to ask Master in person."

After saying this, Wu Changming closed his eyes, and a wave of energy emanated from his body. Not long after, he opened his eyes and glared at Gu Mingyue: "Gu Mingyue, you are really shameless. Master only said to make an exception and let Zhang Xiaohua, the prince of Pingbian Palace, participate in the competition. You actually switched the concept and said that Master asked your lineage to participate in the competition. You are really shameless."

Gu Mingyue smiled calmly upon hearing this: "Brother, why are you angry? I didn't explain it clearly. Why are you angry? Consider it my apology."

"Hmph, that Zhang Xiaohua is just a dandy young man with no foundation in martial arts. What's the point of asking him to participate in the competition? Brother, you want to take advantage of me. You are looking down on me too much." Wu Changming said sarcastically.

"That's wrong. Junior brother, do you know why Master made an exception and asked Zhang Xiaohua to participate in this competition?" Gu Mingyue said with a smile.

"Isn't it because of his identity as the prince of Pingbian Palace?" Wu Changming sneered.

"You're wrong! Identity is important, but what's more important is that he had bathed in the aura emitted by the ancient corpse before, and actually developed a bloodline and gained a magical power." Gu Mingyue did not mind exposing Zhang Xiaohua's information in order to undermine Wu Changming's momentum.

"What?" Wu Changming was shocked when he heard this: "You are cheating! Asking a god who has awakened his magical powers to compete with mortals is simply cheating!"

……

Zhang Chen next door didn't realize how serious the incident was and was still happily absorbing the incense and faith. This was simply his treasure land, with large amounts of points coming in every day. This Huang Tian Dao was really bringing him good luck.

Zhang Chen smiled, with the corners of his mouth raised in a proud smile. This is a treasure land. As long as he can survive here, sooner or later he will be able to suppress a twelfth-level existence.

Zhang Chen practiced and refined the Six-Character Mantra Sticker day and night. However, in just three days, the Six-Character Mantra Sticker, due to the huge supply of mana, had transformed from a golden state into a light state.

The physical gold inexplicably disappeared under the refinement of magic power, and only a piece of calligraphy that was as illusory as a magical power appeared in Zhang Chen's hands.

Zhang Chen took the Six-Character Mantra copybook and looked at it for a long time before saying, "Now the ritual is complete. The next step is to rely on a large amount of incense and faith to support it, and then use the power of incense and faith to increase the power of the copybook."

After muttering to this, Zhang Chen returned to his own courtyard and saw the little kid practicing martial arts.

"Sister."

Zhang Chen walked into the room and shouted to the little kid who was standing in a posture to mobilize his Qi and blood.

The little boy slowly finished his training, then looked at Zhang Chen with a pair of eyes and said in a very mature manner, "What do you want from me?"

"I have found a solution to your problem. Come here and let's try it." Zhang Chen said to the little kid.

Xiao Douding's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Do you have a solution? How do you solve my problem?"

Zhang Chen closed the door, pulled Little Bean to sit on the bed, and then said to Little Bean very seriously: "Your soul leaves your body again and pushes the palace out of the ancestral orifice. Remember to hold on for one breath this time. Whether you can solve the problem depends on this time."

The little boy's expression suddenly became serious, and he sat cross-legged on the bed very seriously. The next moment, a golden light flashed at the Baihui point on his head, and the palace was slowly pushed out from the ancestral point between the little boy's eyebrows.

Zhang Chen looked at the palace, and as his mind moved, the six-character mantra sticker turned into a golden light and penetrated into the palace, reaching the deepest part of the palace.

The next moment, the palace fell, the little bean's body shook, and two lines of blood spurted out of his nose.

"Brother, my head hurts so much." The little boy's voice was full of pain, and he looked at Zhang Chen with tears in his eyes. "It will be effective within seven days, don't be afraid, brother will take care of everything." Zhang Chen gently stroked the little boy's head.

He could feel that after the six-character mantra sticker fell into the palace, it seemed to have evolved into a whirlpool, constantly absorbing the power of faith in the palace. Even the illusory palace itself fluctuated slightly, and some walls turned into the power of faith, which was decomposed again and absorbed by the six-character mantra sticker.

If the Six-Character Mantra Sticker wants to achieve great success, the power of faith required is endless and massive. Zhang Chen feels that even with the small size of the entire Huang Tiandao, it is not enough to provide Zhang Chen's Six-Character Mantra Sticker with absorption and push it to the Mahayana state.

Time seemed to slip by slowly again, and the days became quiet. In the afternoon, the Taoist temple posted a notice: "Whoever wins the Taoist temple competition in three days will be blessed by the Water God and become a subordinate god of the Water God. From then on, they will be able to ascend to heaven from a mortal to a god with incredible power."

The most crucial thing is that the winner can be confirmed by Huang Tiandao as one of the Dao's sons, ranked among the Six Sons of the Southern Dipper and the Seven Sons of the Northern Dipper. In the future, he will definitely control the situation of Huang Tiandao and become the absolute core.

In the small building

Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding rarely practiced, but sat in the house making tea.

"Zhang Chen, the sect competition will be held in three days. Do you have confidence?" Cheng Yu looked at Zhang Chen with a cautious look in his eyes.

"That's all. After the death of Wei Yingwu in the Taoist temple, there will be no one who can make a difference anymore." Zhang Chen said with a smile, his face full of confidence.

He certainly did not covet the positions of the Six Sons of the Southern Dipper or the Seven Sons of the Northern Dipper, nor did he covet the position of a subordinate deity to the Water God. He wanted to climb to a higher level of the Huang Tian Dao and obtain the higher-level mantras of Qigong practitioners.

The higher you climb, the greater your opportunities.

"You must not be careless. This competition involves not only the masters of Huangli Temple, but all the Taoist temples under the command of Grandmaster Wu Changming. Let's compete for this opportunity together." Little Dou Ding looked at Zhang Chen. She knew a lot of inside information:

"At the top of the Huangtian Dao is the Great Sage Master, the founder of the Huangtian Dao and the incarnation of Huang Tian. Below him are the Ten Heavenly Masters, who respectively control the ten major regions of the Huangtian Dao. The Six Sons of the Southern Dipper and the Seven Sons of the Northern Dipper are the people who are destined to prosper the Huangtian Dao in the future as deduced by the Great Sage Master. They can be named innate gods in the future if they fulfill their destiny. The Six Sons of the Southern Dipper and the Seven Sons of the Northern Dipper have a total of thirteen places, and the Ten Heavenly Masters each get one place, and the remaining three places are randomly awarded. This time, Huangli Temple has done a big thing, and the entire north is included in the scope of Huangtian Dao's preaching. The Great Sage Master specially bestowed a place, and this time we are competing for this place." Cheng Yu's voice was full of caution.

"There is no opponent in our Taoist temple that you can take seriously, but there are quite a few talented people in the other 300 or so Taoist temples. Among them, there are three people who are most worthy of your attention. One is from Huanghua Temple: Chu Mingyue. His martial arts cultivation has already entered the dark energy. I heard that he has ignited the martial arts blood. This time, Huanghua Temple has spent a lot of money to win the quota. The second one is from Huangniu Temple: Wu Ming'er. It is said that he has also cultivated martial arts blood under the cultivation of the Taoist temple, and even awakened the power of blood under the stimulation of martial arts blood. The third one is from Huangfeng Temple: Li Donglai. Although this person has not cultivated the dark energy, he is born with a bronze skin and iron bones and can lift a tripod. He was brought back by the founder Wu Changming himself."

“Except for these three people, the rest are just so-so, ordinary people who haven’t even mastered the hidden power.” The little bean’s voice was full of pride.

Zhang Chen's heart moved when he heard this. During the competition, he could not use many of his methods. The only ones he could use were probably the secret immobilization talisman and ultrasonic waves. He did not dare to underestimate the martial arts masters who had cultivated their qi and blood.

"It's a pity that I'm too young to play, otherwise how could they get a chance?" The little kid's voice was full of regret.

"Is there no one who has cultivated Qi and blood in other Taoist temples?" Zhang Chen thought of the Qi and blood masters in the Jianxiu Division and the Qi and blood masters in the Pingbian Palace. They were all in groups. How come Wu Changming's lineage has more than 300 Taoist temples, but there are only three martial arts Qi and blood masters? This is very unscientific.

"If you want to awaken the martial arts qi and blood, the first condition is to step into the dark power. Only by using the dark power to cleanse the muscles and bones and allow the dragon blood to penetrate into them can you have a chance to awaken the qi and blood. This one condition excludes 99% of the people in the Taoist temple. It is rare for the younger generation to be able to cultivate the dark power before the age of 30. Moreover, the dragon's blood contains animal nature. If you want to fully activate the qi and blood, you must suppress and eliminate its animal nature, which is even more difficult. There are only three people in the young generation who can have such willpower, which is definitely not a small number." Xiao Douding said very solemnly.

Zhang Chen suddenly realized after hearing this. Although he looked down on dark force warriors, it did not mean that dark force warriors were weak. On the contrary, to master the dark force, one needed to practice very hard and had to have enough luck.

The little girl said a lot of things for Zhang Chen, and then went to practice. This competition had nothing to do with her, so she didn't go to join in the fun.

"Martial arts qi and blood?" Zhang Chen thought thoughtfully. A martial artist who cultivates martial arts qi and blood has already transformed from a human to a non-human, and can be called a little superman. If he does not use his skills, it would be a bit troublesome to deal with it, but it is just a bit troublesome.

While the little kid went to learn martial arts, Zhang Chen stood in the yard thinking about the competition in three days. After all, this martial arts competition was of great importance. If he wanted to climb up and stand out, he had to reach the top. Ascending to the top in one step and becoming one of the Six Sons of the Southern Dipper or the Seven Sons of the Northern Dipper would be the easiest shortcut. By then, he could become a high-level figure in Huang Tiandao. Wouldn't it be easy for him to seize the secret book?

"No one can stop me from reaching the top! Not even the Jade Emperor can do it." Zhang Chen secretly made up his mind.

Just when he made up his mind, a flash of light appeared outside the yard, and then Wu Changming, with an embarrassed look on his face, appeared at the gate.

When Zhang Chen saw Wu Changming, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Is this person someone who can compete with Xie Xuan?

Since coming to Huangli Temple, Zhang Chen has never seen Wu Changming again. He thought that this guy had left, but who would have thought that he would appear again at this time?
"Don't panic! Wu Changming may not know my identity, why should I panic? I am just an ordinary disciple of Huangli Temple now." Zhang Chen said to himself.

When he fought Zhang Shicheng in the cave and met Wu Changming, his mask was broken and his true face was exposed, but two months had passed since then. Zhang Chen's appearance and temperament were very different from before because of the evolution of his blood control technique. Even if he called his stepmother, she might not recognize his appearance. He didn't believe that Wu Changming could still recognize him.

After Wu Changming came out of the underground secret room, he felt aggrieved. This was clearly the credit earned by his lineage, but now it was very likely to be taken away by someone else. He felt extremely aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do.

Wu Changming was so angry that he walked around the Taoist temple to relax. When he was halfway through, passing by Zhang Chen's courtyard, Wu Changming's eyes suddenly turned around: "It seems that there is a way to reverse the situation. After all, this ancestor is still here."

This ancestor is incredible, he is a real boss!
Isn't the old prince of Pingbian Palace strong enough to transform into a dragon? But he still fell into the hands of this kid?

People only know that Xie Xuan slayed the dragon, but who knows that the real culprit is this guy?

If we can make this kid win, then won't all the troubles be solved? Then we'll see how arrogant Gu Mingyue will be!
