Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 521 Difficulty in Descending the Mountain

With just a few simple business sentences, he said that a banquet had been set up on the mountaintop, and that the Ghost King was invited to have a few drinks.

This kind of action is very human.

The King of Disasters didn't want to go up the mountain, so why not just stay at the foot of the mountain?

"Many ghosts talk too much."

"All the troops can follow up the mountain."

Although the Green Demon King appears arrogant and cool, he is actually passionate at heart.

In addition, that strategist Xu is really good at talking, one line after another, making it impossible not to talk to him.

The Demon King of Calamity was, after all, a powerful ruler of his own domain; how could he not even dare to climb a mountain?

Besides, he also had 10,000 subordinates with him, who could sacrifice themselves and cast secret spells at any time.

There are very few places in this world that can confine it.

Since that's the case, then I'll respectfully comply.

Stepping inside, I sensed something in my mind. Communication with the outside world was seamless, which was a relief.

That's true. Even demons wouldn't resort to such methods to kill each other in this kind of situation; it would be too immoral.

Besides, I was still using the guise of giving it away as a gift, so I was considered a friend.

Turning against him would only bring shame upon the Black Mountain Demon. How could the overlord of the underworld be so shameless?

However, people here are ignorant of right and wrong, unable to distinguish between good and evil, and they act recklessly and wickedly, which is extremely sinister.

Something seems off about the inheritance that the Black Mountain Demon received from the Netherworld Cult Master in the outer sea.

With mixed feelings, the ghosts climbed the steps.

The Green Demon King led the Demon King and his more than 10,000 followers into the mountains, stationed troops on the mountainside, and invited the Demon King to the summit.

They then sat down as host and guests, with wine, incense, and food prepared, and a banquet was held to entertain them.

After the two important figures took their seats at the mountain peak, the Ghost King didn't say much, as it was really not good at socializing.

With a sudden movement, three large, living people were flung out of his body.

It was the Three Wonders of Chongqi that triggered everything.

Zao and Ning Caichen were both bound tightly by underworld magic and lay on the ground like dead fish.

After all, he is a living person who surrendered himself, and he is already benefiting from the great secret of Ksitigarbha to receive this treatment.

Upon seeing the Green Demon King and the Ghost Strategist, the two of them didn't struggle at all; in fact, they relaxed considerably.

All eyes were now on the other person.

Ji Rui was completely unshackled, still curled up in a ball, fast asleep, with a mattress and a blanket beside him.

I don't know how the underworld found this thing, but the difference in treatment is astounding.
Huh?
Xu Xuan and Xiao Qing looked at Ji Rui together; this guy's fortune had returned to chaos.

Ignoring the fact that the Ghost King was still nearby, the two of them began to examine the sleeping beauty.

Do not forget, do not help, keep it gentle and continuous, good sleep method, good sleep technique.

The body instinctively fell into a state of dormancy.

This method is most famous in Taoism, and both Lü Dongbin and Master Xiyi were associated with it. Similar body techniques also exist in Buddhism.

The change in fortune has triggered such a profound slumber; it is truly remarkable.

Even the Holy Father couldn't say what Ji's future would look like.

As the saying goes, reversal is the movement of the Tao, and weakness is the application of the Tao.

Once anything develops to a certain point, it will develop in the opposite direction. All things in the world are generated, develop, and decay in contradictions. This is an unchanging law of the universe.

Ji Rui's fortune is like that, just like the alternation of day and night, and the cycle of the four seasons.

This uncertain state may not be apparent to ordinary people, but the stronger the person, the more they understand the power it contains.

No wonder the King of Dispelling Calamities gave him such high treatment; he was afraid.

Xu Xuan shook his head. Since that's the case, there's no need to keep playing along. Let's end this sooner rather than later.

Pointing at Zao and Ning Caichen, he said, "These two are useless. Drag them away."

The black alligator quickly stepped forward and dragged the two out of the main hall to deal with them.

Next, Xu Junshi squatted on the ground with a solemn expression, as if studying something very terrifying, and pointed his finger at Ji Rui's brow.

The Green Demon King looked at the ground and sighed deeply.

"Oh dear, oh dear~~~ Why is it still like this?"

The King of Disasters was terrified; could it truly be related to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?!
Just as he was thinking this, a faint light of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva emanated from Ji Rui's body!
The evidence is finally here! The Ghost King was terrified, and his already erratic form became even more distorted.

The Azure Demon King looked around, as if he was about to reveal some ultimate secret but also seemed hesitant.

"Your Majesty, let me explain." "However..."

Xu Junshi, who was squatting on the ground, also looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't, and there was a glint of white light in his eyes as he looked at the Ghost King.

Just then, the King of Disasters inexplicably moved closer.

It doesn't know why it's doing this, but it seems reasonable to do so when discussing private matters, right?

As my cunning strategist once said, "If the ruler is not discreet, he will lose his ministers; if the ministers are not discreet, they will lose their lives."

Besides, it wasn't like they were getting close to the Green Demon King; in fact, the other party even took a few steps back to maintain a safe distance.

That mere ghost strategist should be utterly pathetic.

A bloodstained carving knife plunged into the mist, and the twisted figure was severely injured at that moment.

All things made of iron, when made by drinking blood to demonstrate one's resolve, are called: Self-Discipline.

Apart from Ji Rui, no one else could exert any special restraining force by stabbing with this carving knife, but Xu Xuan was different.

He named this knife.

Then, the golden and red flames spread upwards, the golden ones being the Eight Dragon God Fire and the red ones being the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

It was almost like indoctrination that launched a devastating attack on the form of the Scattered Calamity Ghost King.

For someone of Xu Xuan's cultivation level to stoop to a sneak attack against an enemy of the same cultivation level, it's astonishing that he would do such a thing.
That's just how Baoantang does things—they drag their moral bottom line down to a level that even ghosts couldn't accept.

Meanwhile, the Green Demon King pulled out Gan Jiang and Mo Xie, preparing for a decisive blow.

Unfortunately, the King of Scattered Calamities is not someone to be trifled with.

He endured the excruciating pain and sent the carving knife flying, then used his primordial yin energy to separate the Dragon God Fire and the Karmic Fire.

Its form twisted into a small black dot, vanished from the mountaintop in an instant, and reappeared on the mountainside amidst ten thousand ghost soldiers.

As expected of a primordial spirit, it possesses supernatural abilities to escape.

Of course, besides escaping for his life, revenge was the top priority.

[The gods and spirits obeyed, the nine orifices received the spirit, transforming me, restoring my soul to its childlike form, silencing me from the nine realms of darkness, and instantly revealing my true form.]

In an instant, all the ghost soldiers turned into black mist and were swallowed into an invisible body, forming a curtain that covered the sky.

Anger burns like fire, hatred surges like the tide, sorrow is like a throbbing heart, and pain is like a broken gut.

Resentment is like a bone stuck in my throat, my heart feels like it's being cleaved by a knife, my anger is like thunder, and my sorrow is like autumn frost.

An invisible aura of calamity descended, and from that moment on, the Green Demon King and that ghost strategist would be cursed for eternity.

In the name of Baodu Mountain and the Central Ghost Emperor, the Scattering Calamity Ghost King unleashed his innate great supernatural powers.

Even the power of origin was incorporated into it, which shows how deep the hatred was.

Even if the Black Mountain Demon himself were to be struck by this attack, he would face countless misfortunes and never have a day of peace again!
The violent aura of disaster follows the cause and effect directly—where does this lead?

Where did the sun come from? Where did this calamity-ridden aura come from?
The mere touch of a curse was incorporated into it without causing a ripple!
The King of Scattered Calamities immediately understood that this feud could be dealt with later.

Even if he was extremely unwilling, he dared not stay here, and he could not even stay in the Sixth Prison.

Black mist rises from the mountain, as if seeking to escape this small hell.

As it flew, it roared, "The Black Mountain Demon is a traitor, despised by all ghosts!"

Unfortunately, it's easy to get in but hard to get out. Why is it that the Great Howling Hell, which used to be so easy to escape in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, still has no barriers?
"Amitabha, because the Pure Land is boundless."

"You cannot escape my grasp."

Xu Xuan appeared behind the Ghost King at some point, his face full of compassion.

His face then revealed a fierce and ferocious expression.

His right arm reached out and grabbed the invisible body, his five fingers digging fiercely into the black curtain, like drawing back a bowstring, and pulled it back with a fierce pull.

Every drop of blood flows, every muscle tenses, every bone, organ, tendon, and skin contracts, and every part of the body exerts its strength!

The ruthless side of her seemingly ethereal beauty is about to erupt.

To bully an enemy who is not physically strong, you have to fight like your senior brother!
'Get down...!'

He pulled back, shifted his steps, and then swayed to the side.

The world was completely silent as a massive black curtain was thrust forcefully over the Black Mountain.

Countless fragments of lava and rocks splashed up, several cloud rings burst out of the air, and a huge crater was formed.

Xu Xuan then took up Gan Jiang, and Xiao Qing took up Mo Xie.

The two passed each other, their swords combined to slay demons and monsters!

"First!"
