I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 226 The Wind of the Underworld, the God of Vengeance (23)

"arrive!"

Just then, the Kunwu suddenly emitted a resounding clang.

The next second, a crimson figure suddenly emerged from underground and appeared in Xuan Hui's field of vision.

"Mountain dwellers are prophets?"

Suddenly widening its eyes, Xuan Hui stared in astonishment at the small figure.

The high-ranking officials of the Ghost Kingdom could not possibly be unaware of this prophet born in the Hundred Mountains.

Although they were unaware of the prophet's connection to the Red-Haired Demon, Li Boyang's relationship with Xi Luo was public knowledge.

"Why are you here?"

His gaze unconsciously drifted to the lynx on Li Boyang's shoulder.

Xuan Hui recognized it almost immediately; it was the mountain god of Yunmeng Mountain, who had now become the object of worship for many mountain people.

Of course, nowadays he could perhaps be changed to the mountain god of Yunmengze.

"Is this the 'target' you're talking about?"

They completely ignored Xuan Hui.

Xi Luo also looked at the Hijikata clan member who was about to break free of the seal with slight astonishment.

On the contrary, Li Boyang, who had several encounters with Xuan Hui, greeted him with a smile.

Although it was only a one-sided contact, it was enough for Li Boyang to understand the true nature of Xuan Hui, this "rebellious priest".

"Kunwu, it seems you didn't tell him anything?"

Looking up at the totem pillar, Li Boyang's voice clearly reached the other person's ears.

"I don't like wasting time and I'm too lazy to explain, so you'd better explain it to him yourself!"

True to his nature, Kunwu fell silent after saying those words, as if he were truly just an iron totem.

"Alright! Then I'll get straight to the point."

Glancing at the Hijikata clan not far away, Li Boyang had no choice but to explain himself.

“I know your Houtian clan was defeated, but He is not actually completely dead.”

"You are now the only priest in the entire Ghost Kingdom..."

"If you are willing to make a sacrifice, you can still reactivate the consciousness of Houtian and bring Him back from ignorance."

After a slight pause, Li Boyang stared intently at Xuan Hui and spoke.

"However, you should be aware of the price of 'sacrifice'..."

"Even with my help, you are destined not to survive."

Li Boyang was telling the truth, because the original meaning of "sacrifice" was indeed sacrifice.

Unfortunately, the "sacrifice" process has evolved to the point that it has long deviated from its original purpose and become a terrible ritual that forces others to sacrifice themselves.

"You mean, my life can be exchanged for the life of the Houtian clan?"

Xuan Hui immediately understood the meaning behind Li Boyang's words, and the astonishment on his face instantly turned into joy.

"Change! Of course I'm willing to change!"

"Do you need to sacrifice my flesh and blood or my soul?"

"What else needs to be prepared for the specific ceremony? What should I do now?"

Overjoyed, Xuan Hui didn't even question Li Boyang before agreeing to "sacrifice himself" without hesitation.

Having gone through so much, Xuan Hui has long since transformed from a "rebellious priest" into the most devout believer of the Houtian clan.

Today, he has a completely different understanding of this ancestral god of the Guifang tribe, and regrets his rebellion against Houtian clan more than anyone else.

If it were possible to use one's own life to make some insignificant amends.

Even if the final result is that he's been deceived, Xuan Hui will accept it. "No, it's not that complicated, but it does require the sacrifice of your soul..."

After staring at Xuan Hui for a long time with a complicated expression, Li Boyang finally just sighed softly.

boom! boom! boom!
The external storm and relentless attacks continue.

Even though the Rain Master waved his Wind and Rain Banner, creating afterimages, he still couldn't stop the collapse of the Kunwu defense line.

Seeing that the Rain Master was preoccupied with his own problems and the ancestral temple altar was about to be destroyed.

It was the Wind God, one of the four guardian deities of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, who was the first to notice the abnormality.

call!
The gale that was originally carrying torrential rain and floods suddenly went out of control in a certain moment.

The torrential rain was blown away, the flood swept away the army, and countless spirits and gods were suddenly swept into the sky uncontrollably.

Amidst this terrifying gale, a familiar, enormous face gradually emerged.

Despite being tired, despite feeling dejected, despite being weak...

But the enormous face revealed a human-like rage, which frightened the gods and demons who had clashed with Houtianshi into fleeing in terror.

After all, Houtianshi was a genuine god.

Even though His current situation doesn't seem too good, He can still kill some gods and demons who have offended Him.

Even the four strongest guardian deities under Wuzhiqi's command—wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

The moment they saw Houtian reappear, they couldn't help but adopt a defensive stance.

Unfortunately, the re-manifested Houtian clan did not rush to kill these invaders, but instead began to revolve around the ancestral temple altar of the Guifang Kingdom.

"not good!"

Instinctively realizing something was wrong, Feng Bo was about to speak again to remind the gods, but the worst had already happened.

Rumble…

The ancestral temple altar suddenly exploded, and the Hijikata clan, which had been sealed away, reappeared in the world.

Strangely, the Hijikata clan, who should have been in a frenzy, appeared unusually calm, even exuding a strange sense of holiness.

Until the Sky-Roaring Clan in the sky took the initiative to make contact with it.

A striking Taiji diagram suddenly appeared inside Hijikata's body.

Vortex... Vortex... Vortex...

In an instant, unprecedentedly ferocious energy gathered together.

The near-tangible energy impact affected the region's wind, rain, thunderstorms, and even caused the massive flood to generate higher counter-currents.

The "Yin-Yang Talisman" inherently possesses the ability to balance Yin and Yang.

The Tai Chi diagram takes this ability to its extreme, even balancing the power of the gods.

Thus, a phenomenon that is difficult to describe as either "possession" or "fusion" miraculously occurred to the Houtian clan and the Tufang clan.

The Houtian clan still retained their personality, but was extremely weak; the Hijikata clan was chaotic and violent, but incredibly powerful...

Using the souls of the Oni-go people within the Hijikata clan as a medium.

The absolute will of the Houtian clan is gradually unifying those chaotic and divided resentments.

Then, Houtian, who had completely transformed into the winds of the underworld, swept across the land, causing ghosts to wail and wolves to howl wherever he went.

call!call!call!
The icy winds of the underworld scatter the flesh and extinguish the soul.

No matter where Wuzhiqi's subordinates fled, the Houtian clan would exterminate them all.

This is the hatred of national annihilation and the destruction of a clan, an immortal belief engraved deep in the soul and will of the Houtian clan, and also the beginning of Li Boyang's efforts to quell this flood.
