Chapter 126: Prayer, the Star God Descends

Chapter 126: Prayer, the Star God Descends
In Tougu Garden, Ji Ming sat in the plum grove.

There were two children in front of the house. The calm Skylark Child was holding the bag of poison seeds, while the lively Thrush Child was carefully holding the magic sword Liusu that the master had just given to Jin Tong.

The two boys, together with Ling Gu, stood guard outside the hut, staring at the crane monster that entered the hut.

"If Xiaolang hadn't told us to release the cranes as soon as we saw them, I really wouldn't dare let this monster get even a step closer to the garden."

Yun Que held the bag of poisonous seeds and looked worriedly at the crane demon who walked into the house. As long as there was any movement inside, he would release Qianshouer from the bag immediately.

Ling Gu frowned and said, "Go and ask the ghost servants to dig up the earth and build an altar. Then move the furnace tripod from the cave, and bring the other fire fans, star god prayer flags, etc."

The two children looked at each other, with surprise in their eyes.

The thrush boy asked carefully, "Are you going to practice the top-grade Daoist organ of the secret skill this time?"

After getting Ling Gu's affirmative answer, she asked again: "Which star god in the Southern Dipper should we prepare for the prayer flags?"

"Of course it's the Three Star Gods of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness in the Southern Dipper!"

Inside the room, on the couch, a young man in Taoist robes was sleeping, with a pair of claws and wings draped over his belly, and under his head was a jade pillow that was covered with cracks and in danger of breaking at any time.

Observing yourself from other people's perspective gives you a different feeling, one that feels familiar yet also strange.

Walk to another quiet room, where the spoils Ji Ming obtained from outside are placed.

The bag of the Tiger Horse Zen Master was placed here, and the inheritance from the previous life was also placed here, such as the old peach wood sword. If they were still placed in the bag, it would take up a lot of space.

He placed the magic weapon of the clever rat, a small dirty bead used for defense, in a wooden grid.

Looking at the shelves full of things, Ji Ming knew that he would have to sell these sundries when he had time and save some money.

Then he poured out a fasting pill from a gourd and stuffed it into the mouth of Jintong's physical body. During these days, he relied on the two children to regularly deliver the pill to Jintong so that he could avoid starving to death.

After doing all this, Ji Ming took out the scroll of Controlling Crane Technique.

The volume records the method of refining the Taoist organs, but due to the harsh conditions, Ji Ming only read it superficially. Now that the time is ripe, he wants to review it.

In the first volume, the Taoist organ of Controlling Crane is called "Cloud Hand Huagai". Huagai is another name for the lungs, meaning the highest of the five internal organs. It is also often called "Cloud Hand Lungs".

It is said that it would be best if the spiritual crane offered itself voluntarily. If this condition is not met, then one should choose the pure and wonderful cranes in the fairy mountains and sacred places, as they have the least hidden dangers.

There are two specific methods of refining: water refining and fire refining. However, both methods require a certain amount of alchemy experience before you can get started.

If you have no experience, two other methods are given above.

One is to invite experienced alchemists in the mountain gate. Several old alchemists are listed in the volume; the other is to directly summon two star gods in the Southern Dipper who are good at refining alchemy.

The latter is recommended.

The so-called opening of the furnace and chanting of the mantra is to call upon the Southern Dipper Star God, asking him to descend with his magic thoughts and refine the internal organs on your behalf. There is a guarantee for the success rate and safety.

Ji Ming did not even look at the specific alchemy method in the volume. This alchemy method could not be mastered just by reading it. It required at least ten years of alchemy experience.

He had planned to summon the gods early on, as this was the safest way.

In Taiping Mountain, only the official Taoist priests who have reached the third stage of foundation building, been given a Taoist title and granted talismans, dare to say that they can summon the gods and their wishes will be granted.

For a Taoist who is at the second stage of Qi Refining, it can be said that he can respond three to five times out of ten.

As for Taoists like Ji Ming, if one responds once out of ten requests, it would be considered good luck.

No, if he summons in the form of a crane, he will lose the blessing of his Taoist identity, and will not have the efficacy of the celestial being.

After all, he was not completely prepared, and this step was indeed unexpected.

However, Ji Ming was confident that if he placed the Golden Boy's body in front of the altar and summoned him as a proxy, there should be a chance that he would be able to invoke the Star God's magic.

If it really doesn't work, we can only ask Wei Wulan from the Zhenling Sect, or Susu for help.

In addition, there is no problem in asking for Dharma thoughts and asking it to do a small favor, but to refine the Dao Zang is no longer a small favor, and something needs to be paid for.

The Liu Ding Fire above Ji Ming's head, which is burning his life at any time, may be the price for this.

Outside, everything is ready.

A three-story high altar had been built in the forest, and a three-legged tripod was placed on the altar.

A Liusu sword was inserted next to the tripod, and a Xiguo treasure mirror was hung on the branch of a plum tree flying diagonally above the tripod. This was meant to suppress evil spirits and protect the elixir.

He looked at Ling Gu who was busy directing the work in front of the altar. Even he did not recognize many of the arrangements. He really did not expect that Ling Gu had such Taoist skills.

The two boys each held up a prayer flag with inscriptions praising the three gods of fortune, wealth and longevity. When Ji Ming saw that the arrangement was almost complete, he sent the ghost servants to move the entire bed in the house, including the body of the golden boy sleeping on it, to the front of the altar.

Ji Ming made a Taoist gesture with his hands, which represented the meaning of performing a ritual. Then he exhaled a long breath, stepped onto the small steps of the altar, stood in front of the cauldron, and sang loudly.

"The three lives are the truest, the main courtyard of life. They receive the nature and descend the spirit, shaping the soul and the spirit.

Eliminate death and calamity, prolong life and spread blessings. Seven stars nourish, the cave is full of spiritual light.

I now recite the mantra to benefit all sentient beings. I sincerely pay homage to the Southern Dipper Star God.

The mantra was chanted once, and except that the prayer flags in the hands of the two children under the altar were blown by the wind, there was nothing unusual.

Ji Ming was not discouraged. He walked through the Nan Dou Gang Steps and sang it again. This time even the prayer flags did not move. There was really no reaction at all.

Several pairs of eyes were watching from under the earthen altar, and a group of ghost servants who were called to lift the altar and move the cauldron were also staring at him. Ji Ming looked a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, it was the crane demon's face that was lost, and it had nothing to do with his golden boy body.

"Three Fates Star Lord, please give Jin Tong a bit of face. He was also sent down from heaven by a divine aura. You two both live in heaven, so you can be considered fellow countrymen."

Ji Ming was chanting the spell while thinking in his mind.

This time, Ji Ming also placed the Yinsi Road Yin obtained from being promoted to a Taoist priest on the altar, hoping to attract the attention of the Three Life Star Gods.

Obviously, there was still no hope for the third time.

The fourth time, no results.

The fifth time, there was a strong wind, but it didn't work, and the wind and sand even blinded his eyes.

By the twelfth time, Ji Ming's voice had become hoarse from singing, and he no longer held out hope for help.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew again, and the Liu Ding Fire on Ji Ming's head was shaken continuously. Ji Ming sighed in his heart, cheered himself up and finished reciting the spell.

Under the altar, two children covered their faces with banners to block the wind and sand, and stood staggering from side to side, having given up hope for the strong wind that blew from time to time.

Linggu stood under the eaves of the house, without even raising her head, just looking at the secret Taoist scroll, as if she was ready to try to summon the Star God.

"Look!"

The thrush boy suddenly shouted and pointed to the cave entrance on the top of the head that brought in the light from the sky. Several stars appeared in the cloud sky there.

"The stars appear in the daytime, the Star God responds to you."

Ji Ming looked up in surprise. The stars were clearly visible even in the daytime. Then a few points of starlight fell and landed on Jin Tong's body.

With a "bang", the dream pillow was shattered.

"Oh no, the Dharma thought has fallen."

As soon as the thought came to his mind, it was immediately interrupted. Ji Minghe's body went limp and his consciousness became hazy, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the old man holding a peach stick. The old man had auspicious colors on his body and a divine light behind his head. He couldn't see clearly, but he felt very close to him.

"Good God, why do you ask others to perform the ceremony on your behalf? It's so disingenuous."

Ji Ming glanced around and listened to the Three Fates Star Lord's chanting: "This is the inner scene of the body. There is no one else involved. There is no need to worry about it being leaked."

"Star Lord is above."

Ji Ming bowed quickly, not caring about saying anything else, and asked quickly: "Is the crane dead? Can it still be used?"

"How strange, it has a body but no soul, but it is a living dead demon body. If it can be used, it must be useful."

Ji Ming frowned, feeling that something was not right, but he quickly calmed down and asked, "Star Lord, can you take the spiritual fire on his head as a reward for refining his internal organs?"

"can."

Fa Nian nodded with a smile. For the sake of the celestial being, he did not follow the usual procedure and said, "This crane has a body but no soul, a state of living death. This kind of internal refining has no intention of rejecting it. Although it is not an immortal product, it can be called a top-grade product."

Ji Ming had not expected such a sudden turn of events. How could he expect to get a fairy product that he had never heard of? He said happily, "Please ask the Star Lord to refine my internal organs."

"You little angel, if you are still not sincere next time, don't blame me for not being able to respond."

After hearing what Fa Nian said, Ji Ming felt relieved. It turned out that the celestial beings in heaven still had some face. It seemed that he would have to bother this star god Fa Nian more often in the future.

I'm sorry to bother you too much, but you can give me an impression of the true nature of the Star God.
