After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 933 The Mountain Demon Seal of Mount Er'e, tricking it into showing itself!
"This beast claims to be the mountain god of Sipan Mountain, appointed by the mountain deity. Is that true?"

Whether this person is good or bad, Chen Yang doesn't care now; he's already got him under control.

"Yes, that's probably true. He told me about it back then, but he's so old, a famous figure from four hundred years ago, and he's good at disguising himself. You can only believe half of what he says..."

At this point, he could no longer sense Chen Yang's murderous intent, and his inner fear had lessened somewhat. "Master, Fellow Daoist Rat, uh, that big black rat..."

He ran away before Chen Yang and the mouse could finish their fight, so he didn't know what happened in the end.

But since Chen Yang is sitting here so calmly, there's no doubt that he's won. But we don't know what will happen to that rat.

"Escaped."

Chen Yang uttered two words calmly.

"Escape?"

Du Fengchun paused slightly, his expression changing subtly. "Master, this beast is no ordinary creature. At its peak, it dared to fight top experts from both the Emei Buddhist and Taoist sects alone. If it escapes, it might bring considerable trouble and disaster..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang looked at him strangely, "Didn't you release it? Who are you trying to fool with this act of caring for the common people?"

"This……"

Du Fengchun paused for a moment and said, "Master, you are wise. I released it only to pledge my loyalty to the Pingtian Sect and take it to Kunlun to provide them with more assistance. I never intended to harm the common people..."

"Ah."

Chen Yang chuckled, a laugh tinged with sarcasm.

This fellow may not have had any intention of harming the common people, but he did things that harmed the common people. He never thought about what would happen if he couldn't subdue this thing after it was released and the latter refused to go to Kunlun with him.
But it's no use saying anything now.

Chen Yang said, "Since you were able to release it, you should also have a way to contact it, right?"

Du Fengchun paused slightly, as if he had thought of something, "Master, you mean to..."

"Think of a way to lure it out so I can deal with it!" Chen Yang said decisively.

Such a menace cannot be left unpunished.

Du Fengchun froze for a moment.

"What? There's no way?" Chen Yang glanced at him.

Du Fengchun snapped out of his daze and dared not utter a single word of dissent. After a moment's thought, he quickly replied, "Replying to Master, after I escaped from Er'e Mountain with it, it gave me a Mountain Guardian Seal, which I still wear to this day..."

As he spoke, he pulled a small seal from his collar and respectfully presented it to Chen Yang. "This is the Mountain Guardian Seal of Mount Er'e. It left its mark on this Mountain Guardian Seal and promised that if I encountered danger, I could contact it through the mark on this Mountain Guardian Seal. It could help me three times. However, after it sealed itself off all these years, this promise became empty words. I haven't looked for it again all these years, until this time, in order to join the Pingtian Sect, I had to awaken it. I want to use this promise to make it fulfill my wish..."

Chen Yang took the seal and examined it.

The Seal of Er'e.

It is indeed the seal of Er'e Mountain.

"You're so eager to join the Pingtian Sect? What's so good about the Pingtian Sect?" Chen Yang asked.

Du Fengchun said, “Master, you don’t know this, but the Sect Master of Pingtian Sect is incredibly powerful, possessing supernatural abilities. I know several rogue cultivators who, after joining Pingtian Sect, received blessings from the sect, and their cultivation levels have greatly improved. I’m extremely envious. As the saying goes, it’s good to have a big tree to lean on. Although I sent my grandson to Shenhuo Sect, as far as I know, Shenhuo Sect is still quite different from Pingtian Sect…”

Chen Yang rubbed his chin, stood up, and tossed the Mountain Yu Seal back to Du Fengchun. "Use the Mountain Yu Seal to contact that rat and try to trick it into showing itself."

"Yes."

Du Fengchun responded.

As the saying goes, "Better to die for your friend than for yourself," he valued his life above all else. What did it matter to him whether the rat lived or died?

But Du Fengchun still said, "Master, this rat is very strong, especially its ability to escape is first-rate..."

"Just lure it out, and don't worry about anything else."

Chen Yang interrupted Du Fengchun directly.

Today's things are done today.

All I need to do is use the Moon Shadow Technique to hide myself and say that I have already left, so that Du Fengchun can lure the rat out. At worst, I can take another Spirit Awakening Pill. Now that I have the Eight-Winged Centipede and the Little White Snake, I can try to take it down directly.

"Remember, don't even think about using any tricks."

"Don't dare."

Du Fengchun quickly shook his head.

Chen Yang smiled slightly, "You've been in Kunlun for many years, have you heard of the ultimate technique of the Great Wheel Temple in the Great Snow Mountain, the Life and Death Curse Seal?"

"The Curse of Life and Death?"

Upon hearing this, Du Fengchun seemed to realize something and suddenly panicked, stammering, "You, you, you, you mean, I, I, I..."

“That’s right, the spell that has afflicted you is the Life and Death Curse Mark!” Chen Yang said calmly.

"what?"

Du Fengchun's pupils dilated suddenly; in that instant, the fear in his heart reached its peak.

The Curse of Life and Death?

The ultimate life-or-death curse seal of Dalun Temple on Daxue Mountain?
"No, impossible. The Life and Death Mantra of the Great Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple has long been lost..."

"Whether it has been lost or not, just carefully sense the state within your body and compare it with the Life and Death Curse Seal you know, then you'll know."

Du Fengchun's mind went blank for a moment. He had naturally heard of the Life and Death Curse Seal and knew how terrifying it was.

In the early years, before the Great Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple fell into ruin, the reputation of the Life and Death Curse Seal resounded throughout the Western Frontier, and countless masters were terrified at the mere mention of it.

However, after the fall of Dalun Temple, the method of cultivating the Life and Death Curse Seal was also lost. It has not reappeared for hundreds of years. Only some ancient books still record information about this secret technique, but this information is limited to describing how powerful and terrifying this secret technique is.

The young man had inflicted the life-and-death curse seal of the Great Wheel Temple upon himself.
If it's true, then besides becoming his slave, what other choice do I have?
He had just been hoping that after acknowledging Chen Yang as his master, Chen Yang would let him leave, and after returning to Kunlun, he could find some powerful individuals to help him thoroughly investigate what methods Chen Yang had left within him.

Now, after hearing what Chen Yang said, and reflecting on it again, he realized that his physical condition seemed to be exactly the same as the Life and Death Curse Seal recorded in the book.

With just a single thought, one can control their own life and death.

Du Fengchun's face turned deathly pale.

If it really is a curse mark of life and death, then the last shred of hope he held in his heart is meaningless; it's useless to ask anyone for help.

"What are you standing there for? Get to work!"

Seeing that he stood there for a long time without reacting, Chen Yang scolded him.

"..."

"Yes!"

Du Fengchun realized what was happening and quickly suppressed his fear, not daring to say anything more.

Regardless of whether it was a life-or-death curse seal or not, he was now completely at Chen Yang's mercy, and he dared not disobey Chen Yang's orders.

He immediately tried to communicate with the mouse through the spiritual imprint in the Mountain Demon Seal.

However, after communicating for a long time, Du Fengchun's expression became increasingly unpleasant.

"could not be reached?"

Judging from his expression, Chen Yang vaguely guessed what was going on.

Du Fengchun hurriedly said, "I am incompetent. I have tried to communicate with them many times, but they have not responded."

Chen Yang took a deep breath.

"Never mind, no rush."

Chen Yang shook his head. "It must be quite exhausted and injured. It's probably hiding away to rest right now. Try contacting it again later..."

This beast has an exceptionally high level of cultivation and is extremely vigilant. If you were to contact it now, even if it were Chen Yang, he probably wouldn't pay any attention.

Du Fengchun nodded repeatedly.

Chen Yang said, “Let’s go, come down the mountain with me, find a place to heal your grandson’s injuries, and when he wakes up, have him give me a copy of the ‘Five Samadhi True Fire Technique’.”

"Yes!"

Du Fengchun felt as if he had been granted a pardon, as if he had just escaped death and had finally been given a second chance at life.

“Master, I know quite a bit about this Iron Elephant Temple. When it was at its peak, it had two treasures that protected the temple. One of them was an iron elephant cast from a large amount of cold iron, from which the temple got its name. I happen to know the whereabouts of this iron elephant. Fellow Daoist Rat left behind a group of descendants on these Four Pan Mountains, and there are quite a few of them…”

Du Fengchun looked like he wanted to take credit, hoping to make a good impression on Chen Yang.

"Oh!"

Chen Yang responded with a faint "yes".

Oh?
Is that all the reaction is?

Du Fengchun paused for a moment, clearly not expecting Chen Yang's reaction to be so calm.

Cold iron is a top-tier material in the world of weapon forging, let alone tens of thousands of kilograms of cold iron, its value is immeasurable.

You wouldn't even look at tens of thousands of kilograms of cold iron?

Du Fengchun quickly added, "Master, do you look down on this iron elephant? This iron elephant is forged from tens of thousands of pounds of cold iron..."

Chen Yang shook his head. "Should I tell you that the so-called Iron Elephant you mentioned has already been forged into a hammer by me?"
Du Fengchun quickly added, "Besides the iron elephant, the Iron Elephant Temple also has a divine cauldron..."

"The Formless Cauldron, is it?" Chen Yang asked before he could finish.

"Correct."

Du Fengchun was somewhat taken aback. "It is the Formless Cauldron, but this cauldron has been lost for many years. When I came to Tiexiang Temple more than twenty years ago, Tiexiang Temple was still there, but the Formless Cauldron was gone. I searched everywhere but couldn't find its whereabouts. This time, I came to Shu not only for Fellow Daoist Rat, but also for this cauldron. My grandson is a disciple of the Divine Fire Sect and is about to cultivate the Fire Offering Divine Technique. If this cauldron can help him, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort..."

He paused, then looked at Chen Yang, "Master, could it be that this cauldron..."

If Chen Yang can name this cauldron, does that mean it's already in his possession?
As expected, Chen Yang nodded calmly.

Du Fengchun was slightly stunned. No wonder Chen Yang was so calm when Tie Xiang was mentioned earlier.

If the Formless Cauldron has already fallen into Chen Yang's hands, then the Iron Elephant has probably also been obtained by Chen Yang.

She had actually hoped to use this to gain some favor with Chen Yang, but the result was rather comical.

He quickly carried his grandson on his back and followed Chen Yang down the mountain.

……

-

At the foot of the mountain is the Sipanshan Reservoir.

Huang Can sent his brother-in-law's family back to Jiapigou, but still worried about Chen Yang, so he hurriedly drove to Sipanshan.

The Sipanshan Reservoir was unusually quiet today; there wasn't a single angler in sight.

Just as he was wondering, the car headlights shone on several people coming down from the mountain pass ahead.

Walking in front was Chen Yang.

"Chen Yang……"

Huang Can quickly ran over.

"You haven't left yet?"

Chen Yang was somewhat surprised that this guy was still waiting here so late at night.

"I took my sister and the others back, and I just got here." Huang Can's gaze fell on Chen Yang's back, and he saw Du Fengchun following behind Chen Yang.

And the young man whom Du Fengchun carried on his back, whose fate was unknown.

Aren't they the same people who asked for directions here this afternoon and were extremely unfriendly?

How did it get like this?
Du Fengchun was covered in dust and looked extremely disheveled, while the young man on his back was covered in blood and barely breathing, seemingly seriously injured.

"They are..."

Huang Can had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, since Chen Yang had also changed his clothes, which clearly meant they had gotten into a fight.

Three people asked him for directions this afternoon, but only two have come down now. If I remember correctly, there was also a black guy, but he's not here now, so he's probably gone.

He was puzzled as to why Chen Yang, given his personality, would leave these two people alive.

They even carried them all the way down the mountain.

Or perhaps they encountered some other danger on the mountain, rather than having a conflict with Chen Yang.

At the same time, Du Fengchun also glanced at Huang Can.

They could easily recognize him as the young man they had asked for directions from that afternoon.

His face immediately turned ugly.

It turns out these two people know each other.

Without a doubt, this kid must have been upset in the afternoon, which is why he attracted this scourge.

I'm pretty!

Du Fengchun cursed inwardly, never expecting that a small mistake would bring him such a big disaster.

regret!

He had been to Tiexiang Temple before and was quite familiar with Sipan Mountain. However, he hadn't been there for many years, and it seemed that the road on the mountain had been repaired. He had just asked a question casually, seeing that the young man had cultivation.

As a result, one slip of the tongue brought him utter disaster.

If looks could kill, Huang Can would probably have been slowly tortured by Du Fengchun's gaze by now.

He clearly knew the location of Tiexiang Temple, so why did he bother asking for directions?

That's infuriating!
At this moment, he had no choice but to believe that this was fate, and that he was destined to suffer such a calamity.

Chen Yang?
Du Fengchun glanced at Chen Yang, and only now did he realize the man's name.

Chen Yang didn't answer Huang Can. After a fierce battle, he relaxed and felt a little tired. "Let's go back."

Huang Can didn't ask any more questions.

Under the moonlight, the two cars, one after the other, quickly left Sipanshan.

……

-

Jiapigou (夹皮沟).

It was past 11 p.m. when we got back to the old house.

After settling Du Fengchun and his grandson in, Chen Yang also condensed a second-tier Life and Death Curse Seal and implanted it into the unconscious Du Wencai.

"Will there be any problems bringing these two home?"

In the main room, while Du Fengchun went to the bathroom to shower, Huang Cancai started chatting with Chen Yang.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Chen Yang shook his head. He had a plan for bringing the person back. "Brother Hu called and wants to order another batch of Yun Shen Pills, around ten thousand pills. Tell your sister to make them in the next few days and pick up the herbs directly from Taihetang. You should go there yourself and pick up the herbs I need as well..."

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

Huang Can nodded, then glanced towards the bathroom again, still a little uneasy. "Are you sure everything's alright?"

"no problem."

Chen Yang patted him on the shoulder, "Go back and rest."

Huang Can didn't say anything more and left directly.

……

The eight-winged centipede lay on the sofa, saying, "What use are these two to you? Keeping them around is just a waste of rice. I might as well let them absorb my energy..."

"You're addicted, aren't you?"

Chen Yang rolled his eyes at it, "It's only been a few days, how much have you inhaled? Have you sorted out the memories of Lu Lingfeng, Wang Youzhi, and Lu Feiyu?"

The eight-winged centipede was criticized, but said, "If you hadn't woken me up tonight, I might have already read all their memories."

Chen Yang's face darkened. "You're really trying to shift the blame. Aren't you worried about whether I can handle it? You'd better be more careful about sucking brains in the future..."

"Didn't you make me smoke it?"

"I……"

Chen Yang was both amused and exasperated. "I have special needs, but you need to know how to control yourself. Absorbing a bunch of useless things might affect your cultivation. I'm only doing this for your own good..."

"Ah."

The eight-winged centipede raised its head. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Reading other people's memories appropriately is actually beneficial to my mental cultivation. I've already barely entered the fourth realm of sword intent, and my sword domain is in its initial stages, though it's not very stable yet. In addition, I've already touched the threshold of the late stage of the Dao True Realm..."

Impressed!

Chen Yang felt sweat dripping from his forehead. He shouldn't have said those things; he was just asking for trouble.

For ordinary people, cultivating one's mental state is extremely difficult, but for the eight-winged centipede, it only requires flipping through other people's memories.

Sometimes, he even wanted to be an insect.

But looking at how ugly the eight-winged centipede is, I'd better forget about it.

"Once I catch that big rat you encountered today, and I absorb its energy, my sword intent should be stable at the fourth level..."

The eight-winged centipede chuckled, dreaming its sweet dreams, while also regretting that Chen Yang hadn't notified them in advance. Otherwise, if they had arrived earlier, that big rat might not have been able to escape.

"Big rat!"

Chen Yang took a deep breath, his face grim.

This rat is indeed a significant threat; we really need to find a way to find it and kill it.

……

-

Emei Mountain, Golden Summit.

A lone moon hangs in the sky, the weather is clear, and not a single cloud or star can be seen.

It was already late at night, and the square at the Golden Summit was completely empty, without a single person in sight.

Only the lights around the square were still on, their dim illumination roughly covering the square, yet it was still somewhat dark.

The statue of Samantabhadra still sits solemnly in the center of the square, its golden holy light reflecting off the dim lights.

The moon was high in the sky, and all around was quiet; not even the chirping of an insect could be heard.

It was getting a bit chilly at the Golden Summit at night.

"Boom boom..."

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from one corner of the square.

In a dark corner, several floor tiles were undulating, as if something was about to break through the soil.
