Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Holy Lord's Brother!

Chapter 92 Deer and Monkey

A figure walked out of the tower-shaped building.

The man was wearing clothes woven from plants. He was about thirty years old, but he had an unshaven beard and messy hair, and there was no trace of human civilization at all.

He reached out his hand and gently stroked the soft and shiny hair on the white deer's neck, saying, "Has there been another intruder here?"

The white deer seemed to understand what the man said and raised its head slightly, as if in response.

Just at this moment, a loud explosion was heard nearby. A black shadow was shaken out by the shock wave generated by the explosion and flew straight towards the direction where the man was. It was Shentian, who had integrated the Chinese and Soviet magic energy.

However, when he saw Shentian's appearance clearly, there was not a trace of surprise in the man's eyes. Instead, he raised his hand towards Shentian who was flying towards him.

The next second, as his palm was raised, the roots of the plants emerged from the soil and began to grow wildly.

At the last second before Shentian hit the man, the roots of these plants intertwined into a cushion, catching Shentian steadily.

This scene happened to be seen by the demon dragon who was chasing after him.

Before the devil Xiaolong's doubtful gaze could linger on Shentian for too long, his attention was attracted by the two things on the man's chest.

I saw two gray octagonal stones tied to the man's chest with dry straw ropes. One of them was engraved with a monkey and the other was engraved with an elk!

The aura emitted from these two stones is exactly the Monkey Talisman of the Holy Lord and the Deer Talisman of God!

"Great! I didn't expect that today I could not only obtain Zhongsu magic energy, but also get a monkey and a deer!"

The devil dragon said excitedly, without any hesitation, he leaped in front of the man and reached out to take the two talismans on his chest.

But just as the devil dragon's fingers were about to touch the talisman, the man moved his fingers slightly, and a log suddenly flew out from behind him, knocking the devil dragon away instantly!
There was a muffled bang!
The log hit a century-old tree.

The little demon dragon trapped in the middle was squeezed into a pool of sea water on the spot. It took a long time for it to re-condense its body from the ground.

This also made the devil Xiaolong dare not act rashly again. The magic power contained in the deer talisman belonging to Shentian seemed to be very strange.

At this time, Shentian gradually woke up in the mat woven with vines.

Patting his head, which felt a little heavy, Shen Tian said, "The deer symbolizes all things in nature and is the most spiritual of all living things. According to legend, the elk is the mount of the gods and is worshipped by all spirits!"

"If you rush in recklessly like this, you won't be able to obtain the Deer Talisman even if you exhaust your water magic energy."

Before the demon dragon could speak, the strange man beside him spoke first, "Do you know the origin of this stone?"

Shentian shook off the gravel on his body and said, "Of course, I am the owner of this stone, and I also know that it was you who used the magic power of the deer to give this island the power of nature."

"Master?"

The man lowered his head, holding the two talismans and saying, "My people have guarded these two sacred objects for generations since six hundred years ago. Their magical powers have indeed brought my people a comfortable life."

"But I know that one day their owner will come here and take them from me."

"So you mean, you want to return it to me?" Shen Tiandao said.

The man shook his head and said, "No, although your description of these two holy objects is quite accurate, I cannot trust you based on your one-sided statement."

"Besides, if they really belong to you, then I believe you must be capable enough to take them away from me."

Hearing this, Shentian looked at the man, then at the two talismans on his chest, frowning in confusion. Among the sixteen talismans were rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, pig, eagle, cat, fox, and deer.

If we talk about the strongest talisman, the Deer Talisman may not be able to make it into the top three, but if we talk about the most difficult to deal with, the Deer Talisman is definitely ranked first!

There is no other reason, it is just because the deer symbolizes all things in nature and has the power to control all things in nature.

To be an enemy of the holder of the Deer Talisman is tantamount to being an enemy of the natural forces of the entire island. It is absolutely impossible for me to do it with my current strength.

So Shentian looked at the demon Xiaolong behind him and suggested, "My dear nephew, how about you and I team up to kill him? Afterwards, the monkey talisman will be yours and the deer talisman will be mine. How about we divide it fairly?"

Demon Xiaolong was stunned, obviously not expecting Shentian to say that. After a long while, he said, "I still need Zhongsu's magic energy. Otherwise, if I just rely on a monkey talisman, don't you think it's a bit unfair, Second Uncle?"

Shentian thought about it after hearing this.

The evil spirits of China and the Soviet Union are actually just like that. At the end of the story, the devil Xiaolong who possessed the eight kinds of evil spirits was still defeated by the Holy Lord who possessed the twelve talismans.

Therefore, Shentian felt that exchanging the Zhongsu magic energy for the Deer Talisman, the most difficult to deal with among the sixteen talismans, was a worthwhile deal.

Then Shen Tian said: "I can give you Zhongsu's demonic energy, but afterward you must go with me to a place and release my true form."

"You should have noticed long ago that I am now just a divine thought attached to the shadow warrior, not his true self."

"Haha, second uncle, are you kidding me? If I go to a place where even your real body can be trapped, wouldn't I be seeking death?" said the devil Xiaolong.

Shen Tiandao said, "Don't worry. If my original body really wants to escape from this predicament, there are more than one way. It's just that the other methods are somewhat more costly than the gains."

"Are you sure?" The devil dragon was skeptical.

"Of course!" Shentian nodded.

Seeing this, Demon Xiaolong finally agreed and said, "Well, since Second Uncle has said so, it would be unreasonable for me, as his nephew, to refuse."

"Have you two discussed this?"

The man asked.

Shentian nodded: "We've discussed it, but I haven't asked for your name yet. Your family has been keeping the talisman for me for six hundred years, so I have to know your name!"

"My name is Tian Xiang"

"Really? Thank you so much!"

As soon as Tian Xiang finished speaking, Shen Tian and the devil Xiaolong suddenly appeared on both sides of Tian Xiang. As the devil energy of thunder and the devil energy of water blended together, the violent devil power instantly enveloped Tian Xiang who was in the middle.

Shentian and Demon Xiaolong had no intention of holding back, they just wanted to end the battle quickly!

It seemed that Tian Xiang was about to be crushed to death by the magic power, but unexpectedly, the white deer beside Tian Xiang raised its head and let out a compassionate cry.

The deer's cry is ethereal, as if carrying some kind of magic.

Shentian and Demon Xiaolong only felt that their minds were disturbed by something at this moment, and the manic demonic energy in their bodies disappeared without a trace.

Tian Xiang then lightly moved his right hand, and two pieces of logs broke out of the ground, knocking the two men away.
