Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 354: Youdu, Tubo

"It's midnight."

When Sanniang reminded him, several wooden bowls had already been placed on the ground in front of Shang Lu.

These bowls are filled with prepared witch ink.

Some of them are made by grinding ores, such as blood sky ore, moon fire stone, etc. Some are made by crushing some strange insects, adding blood of different animals, and blending them in a certain proportion.

When Shang Lu heard Sanniang tell the time, he flipped his hand and ejected a few talismans.

These witch talismans flew into the wooden bowl, soaked in the witch ink, and spontaneously combusted with a "boom", activating the power contained in them.

In an instant, several wooden bowls emitted scorching air, or gave people a chill, or a solemn and heavy feeling...

It was as if they were not ink or paint, but dangerous goods. If you get close to them, you will be hurt.

Of course Shanglu was not afraid of these and was very happy.

After the Wu Mo is activated, the stronger the power it exudes, the better its quality, and the better the effect of using it to draw talismans, make instruments, or make Nuo masks.

After the breath in the wooden bowl stabilized, Shang Lu waved his hand and released streams of essence energy, which like tentacles, lifted the wooden bowl steadily.

With the improvement of his cultivation and continuous application in actual combat, Shang Lu has already mastered the skill of controlling objects with Qi very well.

These externalized vital energy are just like his arms, and he can use them freely.

Shang Lu used his energy to pick up the wooden bowls and placed them on the altar. He also walked to the altar, ready to communicate with the gods and make Nuo masks.

But just as he reached out to take the Yin-Yang Willow that was struck by lightning, Shang Lu was stunned.

At this moment, he discovered that there were actually two pieces of Yin-Yang Willows struck by lightning placed on the altar for worship.

"That's not right. I just took out a piece of Lightning-Struck Yin-Yang Willow."

Shang Lu frowned and recalled, making sure he was not mistaken, and quickly turned to look at Sanniang who was holding yarrow and studying the art of divination.

"Sanniang, did you put this extra piece of Lightning-Struck Yin-Yang Willow up here?"

Shang Lu thought it was Sanniang who did it. After all, there were only him and Sanniang here. It couldn't be that the Yin-Yang Willow that was struck by lightning climbed up to the altar by itself, right?
As for why Sanniang did this, Shang Lu could guess a little.

"Are you afraid that I won't succeed in my first try, so you put an extra piece of the Lightning-Struck Yin-Yang Willow so that when the Nuo mask fails, you can have backup materials and try multiple times? Actually, you don't have to do this. I have already thought about it. The piece of Lightning-Struck Yin-Yang Willow I took out is big enough, so I am not afraid of failing three or four times."

He imagined a lot, but Sanniang shook her head and said, "It wasn't me. It climbed up to the altar by itself."

"what?"

Shang Lu was stunned, thinking he had heard it wrong.

Climbed up the altar by itself? Could it be that this lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow has become a spirit?
Oh, that’s not right. This piece of willow wood was originally found from the fairy’s body.

So the soul of the willow monster is still there, controlling this willow wood?
Fortunately, Shang Lu quickly discovered that there was a strange spiral pattern on the Yin-Yang Willow that was struck by lightning. Otherwise, he would have to destroy the Yin-Yang Willow that was struck by lightning and then burn it to prevent future troubles.

"This pattern... is it the 'road god' worshipped in the witch temple?"

Shanglu still doesn't know the name of that strange god, and because he always likes to appear in the image of a spiral road, he gave him the nickname "God of Roads".

Even though the name is terrible, it is still a name.

Shang Lu reached out and picked up the lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow with a spiral pattern. After a careful inspection, he determined that the pattern on it was left by the "God of Roads".

Because he discovered the remaining divine power of the "God of Roads" in this pattern.

This is a kind of cold and strange power that makes people feel cold to the bone, as if even the soul will be frozen.

"Did the 'God of Roads' choose a piece of lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow and ask me to make a Nuo mask for him?"

Shang Lu was a little confused.

From what he had learned in the Nuo witchcraft class, it was said that it was a very difficult task to obtain permission from the gods and have them bestow their divine power upon the Nuo mask.

If you want to get permission from some gods to make corresponding Nuo masks, you not only need to worship them for many years, but you even have to offer some special sacrifices!

But the "God of Roads" couldn't wait and took the initiative to express his willingness to lend him his power...

Isn't this too unreserved?

Could it be that among gods, there are also social phobias and social bulls? And this "road god" happens to be a social bull who is willing to help others?

That’s not right. Among those who entered the Witch Temple together and took the test of the “God of Roads”, he was the only one who got the seal of the “God of Roads”.

Afterwards, he asked Feng Boyuan and others indirectly, but none of them had such experience.

"So, I have some special potential, and the 'God of Roads' noticed me?"

Shang Lu thought to himself, and then he gave a thumbs up to the spiral pattern on the lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow: "You are really good at judging people!"

The spiral pattern on the Yin-Yang Willow struck by lightning suddenly shook.

I don’t know if the “God of Roads” began to doubt and waver in His choice.

Shang Lu originally planned to make the Nuo mask of the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail tonight.

He had once helped the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god, and later he often offered jade in exchange for spiritual energy. He had close contacts with the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god, which made it easier for him to succeed.

However, since the "God of Roads" took the initiative to signal him, he couldn't refuse his kindness.

Of course, I dare not.

Moreover, if we can really make two Nuo masks at the same time, the improvement in combat power will be enormous.

As for whether the "God of Roads" was so proactive and was hiding some trick, Shang Lu was not worried.

If the "God of Roads" really wanted to harm him, why would he go through so much trouble?
Not to mention the last time when his spiritual power exceeded the limit, the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail went mad and he was almost crushed to death by the chaotic divine power. It was thanks to the help of Sanniang and the "God of Roads" that he was able to save his life.

Although he didn't understand why the "road god" was attracted to him, at least now, Shang Lu was sure that the "road god" would not harm him.

Putting down the lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow that had been marked by the "God of Roads", Shang Lu began to chant spells around the altar and perform a ceremony to communicate with the gods.

Although the "road god" took the initiative to signal, Shang Lu still communicated with the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god first, because all the preparations he had made before were aimed at the Nuo mask of this mountain god.

After reciting the spell to communicate with the gods, Shang Lu began to "report his name": "Disciple Shang Lu, today I set up an altar to sacrifice the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god. I hope the god will send down a ray of divine thought..."

With his previous experience of communicating with gods, the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail did not keep Shang Lu waiting for long this time.

Soon Shang Lu felt that there was a pair of invisible eyes between heaven and earth, watching him.

There seemed to be a strong pressure like a mountain emanating from his eyes.

Shang Lu knew that the mind and gaze of the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god were attracted to him.

He took the incense handed to him by Sanniang, lit it, and inserted it into the incense burner. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

It felt like there were more than one pair of eyes staring at him between heaven and earth!
In the dark night, there appeared pairs of invisible eyes.

They were looking at him with eyes that were either curious, scrutinizing, or suspicious.

At the same time, Shang Lu heard a strange whisper in his ears, which was chaotic and noisy, making people upset. It was all thanks to the statue of his heart in his internal organs that released a raging fire in his heart, and the sound of the Yin-Yang Bell "clang clang", that the pollution was burned away and Shang Lu was prevented from going crazy.

Shanglu was even able to listen carefully to these whispers.

Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, I could tell that these sounds were not made by a god.

There must be several gods who were attracted by the altar he set up. They cast curious glances at him and discussed aloud.

Shang Lu broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

The ritual of communicating with gods is usually one-on-one, and it does not mean that the more gods are "summoned", the better.

With too many gods, the divine powers interfere with each other and chaos can easily occur.

If he is not careful, he will be affected and his body and soul will be torn apart!

"What the hell is going on? I only invited the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail. What are these gods that suddenly showed up?"

Shang Lu wanted to ask those invisible eyes in the world: Are you free? Why are you here to join in the fun?

But he dared not.

He was afraid that if he yelled like that, he would immediately anger the gods and be torn to pieces. Fortunately, Shang Lu soon discovered that the invisible eyes that appeared between heaven and earth were all acquaintances who had come into contact with him and whose divine power he had borrowed and stolen.

For example, the mountain pioneer, the weird eyeball, the messenger of Hebo...

But this discovery not only did not make Shang Lu relax, but made him even more nervous.

"What are they doing here? Did they find out that I stole their divine power and want to interrogate me at this time? Or did they want to stop me from making the Nuo mask?"

Fortunately, although the attention of these gods brought great pressure to Shang Lu, they had no intention of taking his life.

Nor did it stop him from making Nuo masks.

It seems like he was really just bored and came to watch the fun?
Wisps of green smoke billowed up from the incense burner on the altar, and in front of Shang Lu, they transformed into a god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail.

Just like what we saw before, the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail was still in a miserable state with wounds and bleeding.

Only the light in his eyes is dazzling and captivating.

Shang Lu put away all distracting thoughts and just pretended that those gods who were watching the fun didn't exist.

He bowed to the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god, made a witch gesture with his hands, and said in a loud voice: "Disciple Shanglu, please make the Nuo mask of the god."

The god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail raised one of his arms, and bits of yellow light shot out from his fingertips and flew into Shang Lu's body.

Shang Lu understood what he meant. This action of the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail represented his agreement.

So he bowed again: "Disciple thanks the Lord!"

After standing up, he picked up the Thunder-Struck Yin-Yang Willow on the altar with his left hand and grabbed the talisman pen with his right hand.

At the same time, the image of the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail, which was transformed from green smoke, changed rapidly.

It turned into a pig-face mask with wide eyes, bared fangs, and a mysterious and weird look.

Shang Lu held his breath and concentrated, stretched out his talisman pen and dipped it in a full amount of blood-sky mineral ink, then he began to draw on the mysterious and strange pig face on the lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow.

At this time, if someone takes a closer look, they will find that what Shang Lu drew on the Yin-Yang Willow struck by lightning were not simple lines, but a series of spells.

These spells connected together formed the shape of a pig's face.

The whole process went quite smoothly.

Even when Shang Lu was drawing the spell, he made a few small mistakes because he was not familiar with it.

As a result, he was discovered by the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail, who used his divine power to roll up green smoke and helped him make modifications and remedies.

When the last line of spell on the Nuo mask was finished, a mysterious pig face formed by green smoke flew up directly and drilled into the lightning-struck Yin-Yang Willow that was covered with spells.

"boom--"

Lightning struck the Yin-Yang Willow, and a dazzling yellow light burst out.

When the light faded, a pig-faced Nuo mask appeared in Shang Lu's hand.

The extra Yin-Yang Willows struck by lightning fell to the ground.

Shang Lu didn't bother to pick up the fallen Yin-Yang Willow that was struck by lightning. He held the Nuo mask in his hands and looked at it carefully.

But before he could take a closer look, the Nuo mask crumbled into powder.

But Shang Lu was not nervous or regretful, he even looked happy.

Only when the Nuo mask is integrated into the body can it be considered a real success.

Shang Lu hurriedly chanted a spell, and the Nuo mask turned into powder, which was immediately driven by an invisible force and penetrated into his body.

Shang Lu kept chanting spells, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he activated the inner vision method.

Soon he saw that the pig-faced Nuo mask he had just drawn was placed in the internal organs.

"It's done!"

Only at this moment did Shang Lu stop chanting.

Then he made a hand seal and rubbed it on his face, visualizing the appearance of a pig-faced Nuo mask in his mind.

A pig-faced Nuo mask immediately appeared on his face.

At the same time, a powerful divine power appeared in Shang Lu's body, attracting his energy and instantly forming a layer of hard scales on his body surface.

There is even essence and energy that needs to condense into eight legs!

This feeling is completely different from using a disposable temporary Nuo mask.

While Shang Lu was paying attention to the consumption in the Qi Sea, he also wanted to try out the effectiveness and power of this entry-level Nuo mask, as well as its consumption of Jing Qi.

But before he could start practicing, the green smoke rising from the incense burner on the altar suddenly gathered into a strange, rugged, spiral path.

On this strange spiral road, Shang Lu also felt a pair of eyes staring at him.

It was the "road god" who appeared.

Shang Lu understood the meaning of "God of Roads" in an instant.

This was to urge him to quickly make his Nuo mask.

Too much enthusiasm, isn't it? Shang Lu complained in his heart.

But he also knew that the "God of Roads" meant well.

Because the time to communicate with gods is only at zi and chou hours.

It would be very dangerous if he tried to use the Nuo mask and wasted a lot of time on it, causing the production of the second Nuo mask to exceed the time limit.

Moreover, trying out the Nuo mask will definitely consume your energy.

If you are not careful and consume too much energy, it will have a negative impact on the production of new Nuo masks.

"Well, let's make the Nuo mask of 'Road God' first, and then test its effects and consumption together."

Shang Lu thought to himself, raised his hand and wiped his face, putting away the pig-faced Nuo mask.

Then he followed the procedure, offered a stick of incense to the "God of Roads", and said respectfully: "Disciple Shanglu, please make... uh."

At this point, Shang Lu suddenly realized that he didn't even know the name of this god.

This situation is not taught in the textbooks.

I guess the teachers who compiled the Nuo witchcraft textbooks would never have thought that someone who didn't even know the name of the god could compose Nuo witchcraft...

So Shang Lu plucked up his courage and asked tentatively: "Disciple Shang Lu, may I ask the title of the Divine Lord?"

Although the whispers of the gods and immortals in this world are very strange and incomprehensible, there are even special "God's language" classes in the Witch Academy, which teach wizards to distinguish and translate God's language.

Shang Lu also took this course.

But after all, it is a brand new language and it cannot be learned in a short time.

Shang Lu’s idea was to ask first. If the “road god” really told him his name, he would write down the pronunciation and go back to ask the teacher.

I just don’t know if anything strange and scary will happen after I pronounce the name of God?

What Shang Lu didn't expect was that as soon as he asked for the name, the gods who had been whispering in confusion in his ears suddenly shut up.

The sudden silence made Shang Lu a little uncomfortable.

He even had a strange feeling, as if the gods who had been watching and discussing the matter had a fear of the "God of Roads"?

After a moment of silence, Shang Lu's ears suddenly heard the wailing and roaring of thousands of people.

These wails and roars gathered together and turned into two words.

What they spoke was not the language of Chaos God, but the language of Ba:

"Youdu, Tubo!"
