Devouring Evil Martial Arts, Eliminating Demons from All Heavens

Chapter 198 The Descent of the Divine Child
"Ok?"

Chu Tianshu could see that Yao Qianshu's soul was swaying, as if it was about to leave his body.

The scene was as if there was a transparent Yao Qianshu inside the original Yao body, with the lower body still overlapping, but the upper body already separated.

The transparent figure opened its mouth wide, as if to shout, and waved its hands, which were suddenly stretched and then flattened, like a candle flame in the wind, swaying uncertainly.

Chu Tianshu took a step forward, his left foot landing heavily.

collapse! !

A ring of blue ripples spread out from beneath his feet.

All the copper basins of water on the eight wooden shelves trembled violently, splashing water and unable to maintain an orderly vortex shape.

Chu Tianshu took another step, his figure already weaving through the wooden frame and standing in front of Yao Qianshu.

He grabbed the wobbly, transparent head with his left hand and slammed it down onto Yao Qianshu's fleshy head.

With a flick of the wrist, three needles were inserted in quick succession.

One between the eyebrows, one in the throat, and the third was flicked into Yao Qianshu's chest.

"what!!"

Yao Qianshu cried out in surprise, touching his face with both hands, and felt his soul steadily rejoin his body.

Chu Tianshu quickly moved his left hand away from his head, took two steps back, and reached into the copper basin next to him to grab a handful of water.

Old Yao's scalp was so oily and sweaty that it didn't feel very good to touch.

After grabbing the water, Chu Tianshu used his power to shake it, mixing the dirt on his hands with the water vapor and splashing it back into the copper basin, restoring his hands to dryness.

"You must be Tian Shu."

Yao Qianshu, still shaken, stood up. "You really were able to help me with this matter. No wonder you received such high praise in the Guangling incident. You've truly surpassed your teacher!"

"Thank you, thank you!"

Mr. Chu, a concerned citizen, was also mentioned in the news about the Guangling Night incident.

More importantly, among the several websites under the Special Arrest Division, there is one website that stores commendations for people like them.

Anyone with even a slight connection to the spiritual practice can find that information on that website.

"Mr. Yao, don't let your guard down. This matter may not be over yet."

Chu Tianshu looked at the copper basins and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the talisman water in these copper basins seems to be helping to relieve your stress."

"The spiritual energy doesn't come from the water in these copper basins, but rather emanates from your body and is distributed across the water."

"Although I have fixed your soul, I cannot cure the root of the disease if I do not know why these spiritual energies were remotely sensed and emerged from your body."

Yao Qianshu exclaimed in astonishment, "The aura of the spirit realm? You're saying that I have the aura of the spirit realm?!"

Chu Tianshu observed his expression and suddenly realized that without the Misty Clouds Realm, it would be less convenient to determine the authenticity.

But judging from the results of the Insight Technique, his shocked expression didn't seem fake.

"At my age, I've only ever heard of the spirit world; I've never personally encountered anything like the overflow zone."

Yao Qianshu looked at his palm. "I thought I had messed up my cultivation and my mental power had mutated. How could it be spiritual energy? Where did this thing come from?"

Chu Tianshu said seriously, "Mr. Yao has never been in contact with anything related to the spirit world or ghosts, has he?"

"No, absolutely not."

Yao Qianshu quickly replied, "I'm living a good life, why would I touch those things?"

"Besides, I don't have any hobby of collecting antiques. In recent years, I haven't brought any new decorative items into my home."

"My biggest source of amusement is practicing my mirage technique. The props I use are either homemade or sets of handicrafts that I buy, some even marked by the manufacturer."

At this moment, Second Master Chu also climbed up the stairs.

"Spirit world ghosts and gods?"

Upon hearing this, Master Chu took out his black and white jade pendant, waved it in the air, and made a few calculations with his other hand. He asked in confusion, "I didn't sense any evil energy here just now."

"The feng shui and energy field here are all normal, unlike the signs of spiritual overflow or ghostly disturbances recorded in ancient books."

Yao Qianshu sighed and said, "Lately, I've been having some strange dreams. I forget what's in the dreams as soon as I wake up, but I remember they were quite noisy."

"I was wondering if it was because I'm getting old and there was something wrong with my health, but the physical exam didn't find anything besides high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar."

"I can only assume that there's a problem with my cultivation, and I want to relax and adjust my mindset."

"Who knew that this morning, I suddenly felt my soul was unstable. Every move I made felt out of sync with my mind. So I quickly set up this altar and hid inside it."

Yao Qianshu sighed, "Luckily, my phone still worked, so I made a call to Lao Chu."

Upon hearing this, Chu Tianshu's face showed a thoughtful expression.

If it were truly the presence of ghosts or spirits invading reality, it could easily affect the operation of a mobile phone.

He was certain that the energy he had just experienced was related to the spirit world, but it was indeed very different from the ones he had experienced before.

The spiritual aura I sensed on those occasions was filled with a sinister undertone.

The Dragon Flower Tree and the Mirror Ape God have different characteristics, but both can evoke negative emotions.

It's like the fear people have of the deep, the unknown, and of strange and grotesque things.

The aura from the spirit realm just now didn't have that feeling at all.

It doesn't even have the kind of overflow zone that should exist, the kind of squeezing into the real environment, the kind of intention to settle down in reality.

Besides the simple benefits to spirits, the aura just now seemed to contain more of a...

Chu Tianshu recalled carefully, and a flash of inspiration struck him.

It felt like New Year's Eve, like visiting graves and paying respects during the New Year.

As he thought of this, he suddenly felt his body sink slightly, and the world changed.

The wind blew in through the French windows, making the curtains rustle loudly.

Yao Qianshu and Master Chu both stared blankly at the empty space.

Chu Tianshu suddenly disappeared right before their eyes.

"Forehead!!"

Suddenly, Master Chu let out a sharp hiss and leaned back. Yao Qianshu was shocked and rushed over to catch him.

"Old Chu, don't you dare pull yourself out!"

"no no……"

Master Chu clutched his right rib and steadied himself. "I just lost control of my internal energy, which I had just converted over the past few days."

Chu Tianshu's sudden disappearance was terrifying, but given Second Master Chu's experience, he shouldn't be unable to withstand it.

However, I'm not yet familiar with the little bit of internal energy I've cultivated in the past few days, so I made a small mistake.

At this moment, he guided his internal energy back onto the right track, which actually helped him enter a calm state more quickly.

"Old Yao, you've done those amazing things on stage, like making people appear out of nowhere. Is that an illusion?"

Yao Qianshu swallowed hard, stared at the open space, and said, "In my opinion, this is definitely not an illusion; he has truly disappeared."

Master Chu raised the jade pendant again to examine the feng shui, but found nothing unusual.

The two old men were not giving up and called out to Chu Tianshu, but there was no response.

"Oh shit."

After a long while, Second Master Chu gripped the jade pendant, his knuckles turning white.

"He's practiced feng shui for most of his life, but when something really happens, he's like a complete idiot!"

Several blood vessels appeared in Master Chu's eyes, and he took a deep breath.

"Don't touch this place, not even a tiny bit! Report it to the police! Call for help!"

"I may not be of much use as an old man, but Tian Shu, with his connections and helpers, will certainly not be shortchanged!"

call!
The wind blew the curtains, causing them to sway wildly.

Chu Tianshu looked over upon hearing the sound.

The scene before their eyes suddenly changed; what was being blown by the wind was no longer the European-style curtains in Yao Qianshu's house, but a large piece of thick yellow fabric.

He had already exerted all his strength, his body was light, and his toes lightly touched the solid object.

This looks like a temple.

The temple houses a statue of a stag.

The statue is entirely brass-colored, without a trace of rust. It lies on all fours, its body appears to be reclining, but its head is raised.

The enormous antlers have nine small branches extending from the side of the main trunk, arranged in an orderly manner. Both antlers are like this, symmetrical from left to right.

At this moment, Chu Tianshu's toes were touching the back of the bronze deer statue.

Behind the statue is a thick, high wall, and the roof is made of wooden rafters and black tiles, making it airtight.

In front of the statue is an offering table with five kinds of delicate pastries, which are exactly five colors.

There were also several plates of dried fruit that Chu Tianshu couldn't recognize.

In front of the offering table are an incense burner and a kneeling cushion, with three large incense sticks burning slowly in the burner.

The three kneeling cushions were empty.

The temple door was open inwards, but a heavy curtain separated the inside from the outside. Although it swayed slightly in the wind, it was never lifted.

Chu Tianshu could not see what was happening outside, but he could hear what was happening outside.

There were hundreds of heavy breathing sounds outside the temple, the sound of numerous flags being blown by the wind, and the sound of firecrackers.

The most primitive kind of firecracker, the sound of bamboo sections exploding as they burn in a fire.

"Lord Deer—"

A powerful, long song rang out from outside, prompting hundreds of people to shout in unison. The sound, mixed with the strong wind, was like a mountain roaring and a tsunami crashing.

"Lord Deer, send down the sweet rain."

"May the immortal master open his eyes, accept the sacrifice and grant rain!"

Amidst the deafening sounds of gongs and drums, the shouts of people rose in waves.

Chu Tianshu's expression shifted slightly; these people all had quite good lung capacity.

The screen of the Youdu Token appeared in his eyes.

That's right, his life force is clearly not full yet.

If it wasn't the token that caused the time travel, then what was it that suddenly made him appear in this rain-praying temple?

Could this be... the spirit world?

There are living people in the spirit world.

Do they still go in groups to pray for rain and worship gods?
Chu Tianshu floated down in front of the incense burner, hesitating for a moment.

This temple has only one exit.

Judging from the sound of the wind, it seems that the temple is still standing on a small hill, and there are voices all around on the slopes.

Although I don't sense any threat, if this really is the spirit world, it's not something that can be judged by common sense. How do I get out?
Just as Chu Tianshu was about to ponder, he suddenly sensed something and his gaze sharpened.

The curtain was suddenly lifted, and a woman standing by the door, carrying a basin of water, was about to go inside.

The woman was standing outside the door, but she hadn't called out before, nor had she made any obvious breathing or heartbeat sounds.

Chu Tianshu didn't even notice her presence when she didn't move.

But when the woman saw Chu Tianshu, her expression changed even more drastically in an instant.

"Son of God?!"

The wooden basin with iron hoops fell to the ground.

Half a basin of water was spilled out, forming a puddle on the stone bricks, like a mirror.

Chu Tianshu saw his reflection on the water's surface.

Above his head and on his shoulders, three flames hung a few inches in the air, burning silently.

There were three fist-sized, golden, and dazzling flames.
