Chapter 456: Three Lands Converge into a Golden Palace

In the Dongyue Temple on Mount Tai, the white-haired Taoist Ren was shocked when he saw the incense in front of him suddenly dim. He silently made calculations with his fingers, then stood up and looked towards the Shu Mountain to observe the situation.

"Blood is rising to the sky, the Taishan God is giving a warning, is there something wrong with the Chiyou Blood Spring?"

Surprised, Taoist Ren walked out of the Dong Yue Temple and slammed a stone bell in front of the temple.

The ancient sound spread in all directions, and all the cultivators who had cultivated to the level of the Three Caves Immortals could sense it. The cultivators who had entered the realm of immortals on land knew the message conveyed by Taoist Ren.

There is a change in Mount Shu, and the source is the blood spring.

Taoist Jing Gong, who was in seclusion in Kunlun Mountain, opened his eyes and a light of inspiration flashed in his mind. He remembered the news from Dongyue Temple. He glanced in the direction of Shu Mountain across the cave and sighed.

At this time, a disciple came to ask how to deal with the news from Dongyue Temple.

"I am currently refining my magic and cannot come out easily. As for the matter of Dongyue Temple, you should go to Jinling to find Shao Siming and wait for his instructions."

At the same time, the wandering immortals on land all stood up and looked towards Shushan. Some asked their disciples to go, some closed their eyes and ignored it, and a very small number planned to go there in person.

The spirit of the locust tree in the Black Mountain couldn't help but send an elf to find Shao Siming to ask her what she thought.

Looking at the elf kneeling on the ground and Xin Shisinian who had no idea what was going on.

Shao Siming said, "There's news from Dongyue Temple that there are some problems with the seal of the Chiyou Blood Spring in Shushan. Xin Shisinian, you need to speed up your practice. The Taoist tradition of the current Feixian Zhenjun is basically sealed in the blood spring. If there's something wrong with the blood spring, it may affect your breakthrough."

As he spoke, Shao Siming asked someone to bring some things to assist in cultivation and handed them to Xin Shisinian. The fox girl also knew the importance of the matter, and hurriedly nodded and agreed. She no longer paid attention to other trivial matters and chose to go into seclusion.

Shao Siming then ordered Jie Qiuheng, Chang Fenglin and Ma Xichi.

"Jie Qiuheng, please go into the water and observe the direction of the surrounding water veins and the changes in the earth's energy."

"Chang Fenglin, go to Black Mountain and wait for the mountain god's instructions. If she asks for my opinion, tell her not to move for now."

"Ma Xichi, you have the highest level of cultivation. In a few days, a cultivator from the Kunlun lineage will come. You will lead the elves to receive them."

After saying that, Shao Siming turned his gaze towards the direction of the dynasty's capital.

As the largest force in this world, there was naturally a reaction within the dynasty. As early as when the bell rang, several cultivators entered the National Master's Mansion. When Shao Siming looked, more than thirty streams of light had already flown out of the National Master's Mansion and flew towards Shushan.

Shao Siming asked everyone to leave for the time being, turned his head to look into the void, stretched out his hand and a small illusory full moon appeared, and then the Taiyi Two-Phase Ring flew out, intertwined with each other, trapped the phantom of the full moon, and absorbed its breath to overlap with the lunar star hidden in the sky.

Then he stretched out his hand and touched the center of the illusory full moon. Ripples appeared, reflecting the virtual images of mountains and rivers, and soon more than thirty streams of light appeared.

During the whole process, Shao Siming relied on the little power left by True Lord Youzhao to establish contact with the Moon in the sky, and then used it to reflect the changes in Shushan and clearly see the tentative actions of the National Master.

Shao Siming saw twelve people step forward first, each taking out a flag and waving it gently. Layers of water light stretched out, interpreting a misty world in the water. Then nine people stepped forward waving flags, and many golden lotuses emerged, holding up the phantoms of mountains, creating a mountain and water scene together with the previous twelve people.

Two more people took out the battle formation diagram and the geomancy map, and matched the landscape formation with the direction of the mountains and waters of Mount Shu.

Finally, three people held up a statue of Jinque Zhenjun and stood in the center of the formation.

Although the statue looked like a middle-aged man in a golden robe, Shao Siming saw clearly that after the Golden Palace God entered the formation, the earth and water veins of the entire Shu Mountain were affected by an inexplicable force. The originally constructed mountain and water formation was immediately covered and assimilated by an indescribable mystery and majesty, and all the orders on this land from ancient times to the present were manifested one by one. After these orders took shape, they quickly gathered on the statue, forming a tall and majestic god.

The god slowly raised his hand, and the countless orders, rules, laws and customs wrapped around his body turned into chains that fell down, with vows to guard the human world entwined on them.

With a gentle pull, the chains of order, rules, laws and customs penetrated deep into the blood fountain. Soon spots of blood began to flow on the surface, turning into scarlet rust dotted on it.

On the surface of the oath, there are human faces flowing. As the power of the gods and men continues to increase, they turn into guardian spirits and surround it.

From a distance, it looked like a great god of the earth who guarded the mountains and rivers of Shu had awakened.

"Interesting, they actually used the power of Jinque Zhenjun to target Chiyou Blood Spring? It seems that the lineage of the National Master has a lot of experience with the changes in blood springs. But the residents here and nearby..."

Shao Siming stretched out his hand and the shadow of the full moon rose up, illuminating the veins and energy of the earth around Shu. He watched as the power of the blood spring, under the shadow of Jinque Zhenjun, gradually spread towards Yunling, Qianjiang and other places, stimulating the local poisonous snakes and insects to become extremely active.

Hundreds of spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and poisonous snakes crawled out from their settlements like a tide, gathered at the edge of the river and the nodes of the earth veins, and spit poisonous water into them, stimulating the power of the flowing blood spring, turning the colorful and smelly poisonous water into colorful mist, which was then re-absorbed into the stomach.

During this process, tens of thousands of spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and venomous snakes will become wilted, then turn into pus and blood and disappear, but some venomous snakes and insects will become extremely excited, grow rapidly, and colorful mist will emerge between their mouths and noses, corroding the surroundings.

Some poisonous snakes and insects that already had abnormalities came out at this time and devoured these poisonous insects.

The whole process was very quick, and 50% to 60% of the power of the blood spring was consumed. The remaining 40% to 50% was collected by some residents in the mountains using witchcraft and sorcery.

In the end, less than 20% of the remaining blood spring power spread into the earth veins and into the mountains and forests, becoming the energy for the birth of some unique creatures on this land.

“Has a new cycle been formed?”

Shao Siming narrowed her eyes slightly. She found that whether it was the poisonous snakes and insects spitting out venom and poisonous mist, or competing to devour, or the practice of the local residents, they were actually stimulating the power of Jinque Zhenjun invisibly.

The order belonging to Yunling, Qianjiang and other places also converged towards the statue of Zhenjun as the power of the blood spring spread. What was originally just a phantom of a tall and majestic deity similar to the gods of Shu was actually vaguely combined with the veins of the three places, forming a larger seal, suppressing the tumbling Chiyou blood spring step by step.

But as a price to pay, the twenty-six people who had taken action earlier gradually began to show a metallic luster on their bodies, their faces became dull, their pupils became dead, and the vitality in their bodies faded away bit by bit.

But in their bodies, vows were rang out, vows to protect the earth, to protect the people, and to protect humanity.

When their lives were completely cut off, these vows turned into shouts, echoing around the gods and transforming into twenty-six new guardian spirits.

"It should be fine."

Among the remaining few people, a cultivator wearing a lotus crown showed some fear. Although he was not the one who set up the formation, after being in close contact with the power of Jinque Zhenjun for a long time, his body still showed signs of metalization. He now just wanted to leave quickly.

Different from him was a middle-aged man wearing a mask. He carried six sharp blades on his back. Looking at the Chiyou Blood Spring that was gradually being suppressed below, he whispered, "Something is wrong. This time it went too smoothly..."

Before he could finish his words, the blood spring began to churn, and clumps of black Tai Sui like mud rolled out. A huge crack appeared on the surface, and half of a man's body crawled out from it. He was so handsome that it was difficult to tell whether he was a man or a woman, and one could only barely tell them apart by looking at his throat and chest.

But the moment the onlookers saw each other again, they felt inexplicably excited, as if they had encountered something they extremely desired, and they couldn't help but want to step forward and make contact with each other.
