The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 8 Evil God
Li Yan and his group returned to the city, following the wisp of black gas, and finally stopped outside a small courtyard not far from the Li family in Dongcheng District.

The group of people stopped outside temporarily.

"The evil cultivator is in here?"

Li Yan stared at the small courtyard, which was no different from any ordinary courtyard.

"That's right, everyone must be careful to avoid being bewitched."

Liu Yingying nodded slightly and gave instructions.

The wisp of black air that she captured finally escaped into this small courtyard and disappeared.

"boom!"

The door of the courtyard was kicked open by a guard.

The furnishings in the yard were very simple. The door of the house in the middle was closed and the windows were tightly shut.

The guards drew their swords and approached the house with nervous looks.

As soon as I got close, the strong smell of blood hit my nose.

This made them even more nervous.

Li Yan and Liu Yingying also followed behind with serious expressions, alert for accidents that might happen at any time.

But until the guard pushed open the door, there was no sound from inside the room.

When the door was completely opened, the scene inside was shocking.

There were red candles burning in the room and a figure was lying on the ground.

A large amount of blood flowed out from under this person, staining the nearby ground red.

If they hadn't seen breath coming from this man's chest, everyone would have thought he was dead.

Liu Yingying looked at the evil statue on the table, then at the person on the ground. She understood what was going on and said to Li Yan, "Daoyou Li, this is the evil cultivator. Judging from his current appearance, he must have been destroyed by your backlash. Even if we don't come to catch him, he won't live long."

After hearing Liu Yingying's words, the guards finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Yan frowned and asked, "Fellow Daoist Liu, do you have any way to make this evil cultivator speak? I want to get something out of him."

Li Yan was sure that he had no memory of this evil cultivator.

This evil cultivator attacked him for no reason. If he didn't find out the reason, he would not be able to sleep or eat.

Liu Yingying nodded and said, "This is easy. Now that his Taoism has been abolished, you only need to cast the Mantra on him, and you will know anything you want to know."

"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Liu."

Li Yan's brows relaxed and he thanked with a smile.

At the same time, he was very envious of Liu Yingying. He now only had Taoism skills but did not know any magic.

Liu Yingying came from a big sect and was completely different from him. She had obviously learned a lot of magic.

Li Yan asked the guards to pull the evil cultivator out and stop his bleeding to prolong his life.

At least this evil cultivator cannot die before finding out the reason.

Then he also looked at the evil statue on the table.

Ever since he stepped into this room, this evil statue gave him a very uncomfortable feeling.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, what kind of statue is this?"

Liu Yingying walked straight to the table, stretched out her jade hand to pick up the statue, turned it over, and saw a strange talisman similar to the moon engraved on the back.

"This is the Moon Goddess."

"Luna?"

Li Yan looked surprised. How could the title of Moon Goddess have anything to do with this evil-looking statue?
Liu Yingying nodded and explained, "Yes, the evil cultivators worship the four evil gods: the Moon God, the Sun God, the Fog God, and the Rain God." "The Moon God's talisman is engraved on the back of this statue, so it is said to be the statue of the Moon God."

"The Four Evil Gods? What are these?"

Li Yan was shocked when he heard this. The four evil gods that Liu Yingying mentioned were obviously closely related to the doggerel circulating among the people.

Liu Yingying said solemnly: "I don't know the specific situation, but I heard from my master that it is the enemy of all practitioners, much more terrifying than those demons and ghosts."

"Whenever an evil god descends upon the world, it brings disaster to the human world."

"Evil practitioners worship evil gods and perform evil magic, which will gradually lead evil gods to the human world."

"This is also the reason why everyone wants to punish evil cultivators."

Li Yan took a deep breath, and the rotten and bloody smell in the house made him frown.

He didn't expect that there existed such a terrifying existence as the evil god in this world.

However, there was a tall man watching over the falling sky, so Li Yan was not too worried.

All he had to do now was to practice with peace of mind.

If I become strong enough in the future, I can easily kill the evil cultivators I encounter.

It's also a contribution.

"I will take this statue back to the sect and destroy it. It will take at least a Taoist with a hundred years of practice to destroy the statue. Otherwise, even if the statue is burned, the Moon God talisman on the statue will escape and flee to other places, confuse people's minds, and reshape the statue."

"it is good."

Li Yan nodded. He had no intention of keeping this strange statue and was planning to burn it.

Now that we know that burning the statue will not completely destroy it, it would be better to leave it to the sect behind Liu Yingying to deal with.

Liu Yingying was very happy when she heard this. She smiled at Li Yan and said, "Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Li."

She opened the palm-sized cloth bag tied around her waist, spread the bag, activated her Taoism, and in an instant, she put the evil god statue into the bag.

“Is this a storage bag?”

Li Yan noticed that the statue, which was more than a foot tall, was actually put into a small cloth bag, and couldn't help but ask.

Liu Yingying was obviously in a good mood and explained, "Yes, this storage bag is considered a magical tool. It has a lot of space inside and can hold all kinds of things."

"I will also be rewarded if I bring the evil god statue back to the sect and destroy it. Fellow Daoist Li has helped me so much, you can ask for anything, and I will try my best to satisfy you."

After hearing what Liu Yingying said, Li Yan's heart moved, and he quickly asked: "I wonder if Brother Liu has any secret manuals on magic. I have only Taoism skills, but I don't have any magic skills. I want to learn a magic skill."

"This one……"

Liu Yingying thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any spell secrets on me, and the spells I learned were all taught by the sect, so it's not easy to pass them on to you."

Li Yan did not force his way, and shook his head and said, "Forget it, I will go to the Palace God Festival to see if I can find a practitioner to pay for a few spell manuals."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yingying said, "If you really want to learn magic, you can also go to Yunshui Pavilion in Heyang Prefecture, Bozhou. Yunshui Pavilion is a shop opened by a Taoist elder who has lit up the six spirits. The first and second floors sell spells and inferior magic tools for self-defense. The third and fourth floors are only accessible to practitioners. There are magic spells and magic tools for sale. It is quite famous in the Bozhou practice world."

"Is there such a place?"

Li Yan showed a look of surprise on his face.

He is now short of magic and doesn't know where to find it.

Now that I learned from Liu Yingying about the place called Yunshui Pavilion, I finally had a direction.

Liu Yingying took out a baby-sized porcelain bottle from the cloth bag and handed it to Li Yan.

"Here are ten mid-grade Life Qi Pills. Life Qi is the currency used among us practitioners. Many spells can only be purchased with Life Qi Pills. One mid-grade Life Qi Pill is worth one hundred low-grade Life Qi Pills, which is enough for you to buy a few spell books."
