Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 220 Kunwu Mountain God
The flying figure quickly fell into Dou Eqing's arms.

This person is Zhu Di.

"Dou Lang, save my sister!"

Zhu Di said to Dou Eqing in a crying voice.

"what happened?"

"My sister has been sacrificed to the mountain god. The leader and his men also want to sacrifice me to the mountain god..."

Zhu Di then explained the whole story to Dou Eqing.

It turns out that everything was for Yue Fen to break through the realm of refining emptiness.

The Baishan Sect believes in the Kunwu Mountain God, but what they worship is actually a newly revived evil god, not the real Kunwu Mountain God in the legend.

A long time ago, an evil god died when many powerful men besieged Xuansheng Tianmo, and half of his body was buried at the foot of the mountain where Baishan Sect is located.

As time went by, an evil thought was born in this half body.

This evil thought used this half body as a carrier for cultivation, and later became the king of the mountain.

The evil thought later devoured a cultivator and learned some information about the world of cultivation.

In particular, he was interested in the stories of mortals worshiping mountain gods from the memories of monks. Later, he imitated the mountain god and became the mountain god of the Mountain Worshiping Sect, calling himself the Kunwu Mountain God.

The origin of this name is because the mountain where the Kunwu Mountain God is located comes from Kunshan. It was formed by cutting off a peak of Kunshan during a war, and the evil god's flesh and body merged together, that is, the Kunwu Evil God is the entire mountain, so he was named Kunwu Mountain God.

Perhaps it is a coincidence that according to legend there is indeed a Kunwu mountain god who lives on one of the peaks of Kunlun Mountain.

The Kunwu Mountain God controls the spiritual vein of Kunwu Mountain. Under the control of the Kunwu Mountain God, the original sixth-level spiritual vein looks like a fifth-level top-grade spiritual vein to the outside world, but in fact it is a complete sixth-level high-grade spiritual vein.

If the high-ranking members of the Baishan Sect want to break through to a higher realm with the help of the abundant spiritual energy of the sixth-order spiritual vein, they must offer sacrifices to the Kunwu Mountain God, otherwise the Kunwu Mountain God will not release the spiritual vein.

Because Yue Fen wanted to break through to the Void Refinement Realm this time, he actually used two Divine Transformation cultivators as sacrifices to the mountain god.

Of course Yue Fen was behind this.

Although Yue Fen did not find the demon slave mark planted by Dou Eqing on the Judy sisters, she did not believe what the Judy sisters said and thought that they had betrayed the Baishan Sect and herself.

Because Yue Fen couldn't deal with Judy and the other two directly, she finally persuaded them to serve as sacrifices to the mountain god.

Influenced by the teachings of the Baishan Sect, most of the monks feel it is an honor to dedicate themselves to the Kunwu Mountain God.

Because, sacrificing to Kunwu Mountain does not necessarily mean death. Many cultivators who sacrificed to the Kunwu Mountain God also gained great opportunities.

Of course, this was a conspiracy by the Baishan Sect's high-ranking officials and the Kunwu Mountain God to create an illusion to confuse the followers.

If the Judy sisters had not been planted with the Demon Slave Mark by Dou Eqing, they would not have resisted after being sacrificed.

This is also the reason why Zhu Di was able to escape from the Baishan Sect. They didn't think Zhu Di would escape.

The Judy sisters grew up in the Baishan religion. They were very devout in their belief in the Kunwu Mountain God and had been blessed by the Kunwu Mountain God many times.

Of course, it was also because Judy stayed. If the two of them escaped together, it would be a different story.

When the Baishan Cult members were about to chase Zhu Di, Zhu Di stood up and threatened to commit suicide.

Dou Eqing figured out the whole story and felt helpless, but he couldn't just say he couldn't do it.

"Let's go see what the mountain god is like first, and then we'll act accordingly. Didn't you say that the Kunwu Mountain God is very close to you two sisters? Perhaps your sister can still be saved."

He had no choice but to comfort Zhu Di with words.

In his opinion, the Kunwu Mountain God was probably just playing tricks and might not be very powerful.

Dou Eqing regarded the Kunwu Mountain God as the demon goblin that Guo Jia possessed, except that his body was huge.

Therefore, the two of them only need to sneak into the forbidden area of ​​Baishan Sect and rescue Judy secretly.

Of course, he still felt sorry that he couldn't plant spies in the Baishan Sect.

Under Zhu Di's guidance, the two of them carefully returned to the gate of Baishan Sect.

The two arrived just as night was getting dark and the sun was about to set.

Dou Eqing paused and looked towards Kunwu Mountain, feeling somewhat curious about the Baishan Sect.

He felt the mountain breeze blowing past his ears, and looking in the direction of the wind, he saw the mountain breeze carrying the scent of pine resin passing over the thousand-foot cliffs. The Nine-Curve Plank Road meandered down from the depths of the clouds, and each stone step was stained with moss and the bronze color of time.

Looking up, fifty-four coiled dragon pillars rose into the sky, and the dragon scales wrapped around the pillars glowed with a faint blue phosphorescence in the twilight. The thunder runes solidified between the dragon claws flickered with the flow of light and shadow, as if they were about to break through the stone shell and soar into the sky at any time.

The main body of the mountain gate was actually carved from a whole piece of Haoyue stone. The surface of the door was embossed with patterns of ancient priests' sacrifices, and the blue-gray metal showed blood-red ripples under the sunset.

The two stone statues guarding the mountain are half-buried in the rock wall, and the exposed shoulder armor is covered with purple crystal vines. The jade bells hanging at the end of the vines move without wind, and the clear sound shakes off the ice spikes that have been sleeping in the cracks of the rock for a hundred years.

The sleeves of a white-robed disciple guarding the mountain gate were blown up by the wind, revealing the bone bell hanging from his waist. The bell was engraved with sacrificial inscriptions thinner than a hair.

On the way, Dou Eqing asked Zhu Di about the internal situation of Baishan Sect.

He now connects the internal scene with the mountain gate of the Baishan Sect.

The main temples of the Baishan Sect are scattered along the mountain ridge.

At this moment, Dou Eqing seemed to see the glazed tiles absorbing the afterglow of the setting sun and reflecting the trajectory of the star map. The bronze soul-calming bell hanging from the eaves was covered with spider-web-like cracks, but it still trembled with some mysterious rhythm.

There are nine hundred and ninety-nine steps in front of the main hall. Milky white spiritual mist seeps out from the cracks in the stones and wraps around the ankles of the visitors, as if a living creature is testing the purity of their bloodline.

An altar protrudes from the cliff at the back of the mountain. Eight meteorite iron chains penetrate the mountain from different directions. The incantations floating on the surface of the chains change color with the position of the sun and the moon.

The wordless monument standing in the center of the altar is completely black. The dark blue flame suspended on the top of the monument twists the surrounding spiritual energy into a vortex. Occasionally, a crane flies over the outer layer of the flame, and its tail feathers are stained with a never-extinguished cold light.

This is the mysterious place where the Kunwu Mountain God is worshipped.

Dou Eqing suddenly saw the clouds and mist swirling violently on Kunwu Mountain. The eyes of the bronze Kuiniu statues on both sides of the mountain gate burst into golden light, illuminating the thousands of suspended stairs hidden in the void.

Twelve grey-robed monks were seen climbing the stairs in the golden light, with ripples appearing wherever their feet touched the ground. The black iron sword cases on their backs resonated with the talismans at the mountain gate, shaking off the frost that had accumulated on the eaves for three hundred years.

The last boy accidentally caught a glimpse of the rotating eyeballs in the relief of the door and froze in place. It was not until the leader flicked his fingers to disperse the condensed peeping fog that he returned to normal.

This is a patrol team of the Baishan Sect. Their cultivation levels are different and they are led by two Jindan monks.

Dou Eqing waited until the patrol team disappeared, asked Zhu Di to carry him on her back, and then hid in the Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

He only needs to use Zhu Di to avoid the Baishan Sect's protective formation.

Core members like Zhu Di who are at the Spirit Transformation Realm do not need to go through the mountain gate to return to the sect. They can use their identity token to go directly through the sect protection formation.

After the two enter the gate of Baishan Sect, they can use the earth escape technique.

Although Dou Eqing has just mastered the art of earth escape, unlike ordinary earth escape techniques, escaping underground at the mountain gate will not trigger an alarm.

This is also the reason why he came to Baishan Sect.

When escaping underground, Zhu Di hid in the Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

His target was the forbidden area of ​​Baishan Sect where the Kunwu Mountain God was.

After sneaking underground for a hundred miles, Dou Eqing felt an unprecedentedly rich spiritual energy and knew that he had reached his destination.

This is where the sixth-level spiritual vein of the Baishan Sect is located, and it is also the place where the Kunwu Mountain God resides.

Dou Eqing sensed his demon slave nearby, and his direction suddenly became clear. He then carefully moved away, using the demon slave contract to sense the demon slave's location.

After following the induction for another ten minutes, a voice suddenly came:
"Til, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so strange? And where is Judy?"

Dou Eqing stopped, quietly spread out his spiritual sense, and followed the sound to investigate.

A strange little boy with three heads and six arms appeared in the cave, with unknown silver rings on his neck and wrists.

The strange thing is that she has a head with Judy's face, but the voice she talks to herself is that of a little girl.

Dou Eqing looked carefully at her other two heads and found that their faces were blurry and their facial features were not visible, except for the hair on their heads tied into two small balls.

"Di'er went to find Dou Lang. I have Dou Lang's mark on me, and now you are also marked by Dou Lang. Haha! Great mountain god, you will also submit to me, Dou Lang!"

Suddenly, Judy's high-pitched voice rang out.

It turned out that Judy sensed Dou Eqing's arrival, and she was grateful that Dou Eqing came to rescue her.

Originally, because of the power of her faith in the Kunwu Mountain God, Judy had some resistance to Dou Eqing's demon slave infection. She returned to the Baishan Sect and wanted to find a way to get rid of the shackles of the demon slave seal.

But when the Kunwu Mountain God wanted to devour her, because of the Demon Slave Seal, the Kunwu Mountain God was unable to completely possess Judy, thus retaining her self-awareness.

Judy's faith in the Kunwu Mountain God collapsed, and because of the Demon Slave Seal, she turned her faith to Dou Eqing.

She believed that it was Dou Eqing who saved her, and now Dou Eqing came back in person to rescue her, so she was very excited.

Zhu Di's words made Dou Eqing understand that the three-headed, six-armed creature was the Kunwu Mountain God.

Moreover, the Demon Slave Seal was equivalent to being transferred to the Kunwu Mountain God. However, for some unknown reason, Dou Eqing was temporarily unable to control the Kunwu Mountain God through the Demon Slave Seal.

He couldn't help but think of Hua Bubai.

At the beginning, Hua Bubai also became Dou Eqing's demon slave through indirect means.

"The Kunwu Mountain God is not a normal creature after all. Did the Demon Slave Seal lose its effectiveness during the transfer process?"

Dou Eqing was confused.

He thought about it, and based on what the Kunwu Mountain God had said before, it was not difficult to judge that her three heads might devour the three people.

So, he came up with a plan and went to Ziwei Immortal Mansion first.

"Di'er, you saw what was happening outside. The Kunwu Mountain God and your sister have merged into one. However, your sister hasn't disappeared. They're essentially taking over her body, and we don't know who's taking over yet!"

Dou Eqing analyzed Zhu Di's current situation to her.

"Now what?"

Zhu Di said in a panic.

The two sisters are twins with a deep bond and are both willing to sacrifice themselves to save each other.

Although Dou Eqing had only spent a short time with them, he had known this for a long time.

"Listen to me, I have a way to kill two birds with one stone. Perhaps taking over the body of the Kunwu Mountain God is the greatest opportunity in your life. Now it depends on whether you dare to take the risk and save your sister."

Dou Eqing said earnestly and persuasively.

"Help! Dou Lang, tell me quickly, what can I do to save my sister? I'm not afraid of danger!"

Zhu Di pulled Dou Eqing's arm and asked anxiously.

Dou Eqing is now the only support for the two sisters and Judy's lifeline.

"Simple! You pretend to be devoured by the Kunwu Mountain God. Now that your sister is here, the Kunwu Mountain God will definitely not be able to truly possess you.

Once both of you have control over that body, you can unite to save yourselves, fight for control of the body, and reverse the body possession. Of course, I will also be outside to assist you in your actions."

Dou Eqing told his own method.

"Is it really possible?"

Zhu Di's eyes flashed with hope, wanting to get a positive answer from Dou Eqing.

"Trust me! We can definitely save my sister! And you won't be in any trouble!"

Dou Eqing not only gave her the answer she wanted, but also took the initiative to hug her and kiss her to make Zhu Di trust him.

In fact, when Dou Eqing discovered the current special situation of Zhu Di and the Kunwu Mountain God and associated it with Hua Bubai, he made up his mind to capture the Kunwu Mountain God.

Although the Kunwu Mountain God is a spiritual being born later, her background is very ordinary and her growth potential is immeasurable.

Even without mentioning the growth potential of the Kunwu Mountain God, Dou Eqing wanted to control her just because she was the mountain god of the Mountain Worshiping Cult.

He wanted to use the Kunwu Mountain God to control the Baishan Sect and make it work for him.

As for Dou Eqing, Zhu Di can no longer act as a hidden chess piece, her talent in cultivation is not very good, and she has no feelings for him at all.

Besides, what he said to Zhu Di was true. If he let the Kunwu Mountain God take over Zhu Di's body, according to Zhu Di's current situation, Zhu Di would be able to retain her self-awareness, and the future of the Kunwu Mountain God would also belong to Zhu Di and her sister.

Therefore, letting Zhu Di possess the body of the Kunwu Mountain God can be considered as considering Zhu Di's path.

"Okay! My sister told me that Dou Lang will definitely save us. I believe in Dou Lang! Please love me again!"

Zhu Di responded to Dou Eqing's enthusiasm, expressed her love to Dou Eqing through telepathy, and asked Dou Eqing to give her more love.

Dou Eqing thought that Zhu Di was possessed by the Kunwu Mountain God. Although her consciousness was retained, her body was lost.

So he brought Zhu Di to the Jade Buddha and Peony Flowers.

On the one hand, the holy light of the Jade Buddha and peony flowers can help Zhu Di feel a higher level of bliss; on the other hand, it saves time.

Dou Eqing had adapted to the holy light of the Jade Buddha Peony many times, but it was the first time for Zhu Di.

Therefore, he can better exert his dual cultivation strength and satisfy Zhu Di as soon as possible.

As for saving time, it is naturally to avoid unnecessary complications.

The Kunwu Mountain God had possessed Zhu Di's body for a short time, and his suppression of Zhu Di's consciousness was not strong yet. When he possessed Zhu Di's body, Zhu Di helped Zhu Di more to get rid of the Kunwu Mountain God.

Dou Eqing is trying his best to gain all the chips that are beneficial to him.

In addition, practicing dual cultivation with Zhu Di was also something he considered.

One benefit of practicing dual cultivation under the Jade Buddha and the Peony Flower is that it strengthens the cultivator's willpower, which is of great help to Zhu Di in fighting against the Kunwu Mountain God's possession of her body.

However, he currently has no treasures to sacrifice to the Jade Buddha Peony Flower to obtain the holy light to help with his dual cultivation.

He had no choice but to take out all his treasures and place them one by one for the Jade Buddha Peony Flower, allowing it to choose, hoping that one of the treasures could become its offering.

After all, all the Jade Buddha Peony Flower needed to release its holy light was initially just the gemstone of the Holy Lotus Crystal.

Maybe other mineral treasures such as the Jade Buddha Peony Flower can also be absorbed.

Dou Eqing waited with an attitude of giving it a try.

However, Zhu Di was shocked by Dou Eqing's wealth, which was definitely that of a powerful Void Refining Master.
