Chapter 35

If you cause trouble outside in the future, be sure to mention my name.

"Young men, do I look more like a man or a god?"

A yellow demon, barely resembling a human, standing upright with its claws raised and its fur glossy and smooth, wore a human-like smile and asked in a sinister tone.

Pei Si, his face grim, turned and made a shushing gesture to Qingfeng and Mingyue.

Qingfeng and Mingyue nodded obediently.

Turning my head again, I saw that the valley was full of weasels.

Hundreds upon hundreds of weasels stared intently at the three of them with their bright green eyes, their mouths opening and closing in an eerie manner.

"Young men, do I look like a man or a god to you?"

The shrill sound vibrated so hard it made one's scalp tingle and chills one's spine.

Pei Si looked at the yellow-skinned beast.

These kinds of spirits are the most cunning and ruthless.

If you answer like a human, you'll ruin his centuries of arduous cultivation, and he'll hate you to the bone. If you answer like a god, this beast's virtue is incomplete and his cultivation unstable; how can he bear the title of a god? Besides, saying he's like a god only consumes his own fortune and lifespan.

Could it be described as a cute little creature with golden hair, blue eyes, and two ears, or perhaps the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Transformation through Thunder and Lightning of the Nine Heavens?

To the shepherd, the weasel seeking the title was a "spiritual sheep" that had fallen into delusion.

There are corresponding secret methods to deal with this.

Pei Si extended his left hand, his thumb hooking his ring finger, his index and middle fingers joined together like ram's horns, and a red thread shot out from his right hand, binding the weasel's wrist.

Pei Si shouted in a deep voice, "Your wish is not yet fulfilled, so do not disturb the travelers. If you have any merit, what wish cannot be fulfilled? Return to your mountain and cultivate yourself to prove your worth!"

Huang Yao was bewildered, her mind a blur. Realizing that Pei Si's words made sense, she turned and disappeared into the fog.

Pei Si put away the red thread, indicating that Qingfeng and Mingyue could speak freely now.

"Thanks to Junior Brother, I never imagined that the Sheep-Hunting Clan's method would be so effective. They actually managed to persuade a weasel that was asking for a title to go back." Mingyue praised Pei Si without reservation.

Qingfeng stared thoughtfully in the direction Huang Yao had left, a hint of murderous intent occasionally flashing in his eyes.

Damn you weasel! If it weren't for this special status of seeking an official title, I would have chopped you up.

Although the Yellow Demon has gone far away, the thick fog it left behind has not yet dissipated. This fog is actually similar to a ghost wall, which can trap people to death in the valley.

Pei Si took out the Mother-Child Connected Heart Jade, and a copper bell mark appeared in the center of the jade.

The copper bell resides within it.

"Senior sisters, come with me."

Pei Si whispered.

Qingfeng and Mingyue, one on each side, naturally linked arms with Pei Si.

In no time, the three emerged from the fog.

Just as Qingfeng was about to make a move, Mingyue stopped him.

"I'll do it." Mingyue's fingers traced in the air, and a pale blue talisman floated in front of her.

Pei Si tilted his head, looking puzzled.

With a smile on her lips, Mingyue explained to Pei Si, "Junior brother, remember this: our Tianshi Cave's 'Dragon Slaying' lineage never holds grudges for long."

"If you cause trouble in the future, be sure to reveal your name."

Mingyue infused the talisman with magical power, then slapped it forward, sending the tracking talisman shooting out like an arrow.

Qingfeng's figure disappeared from the spot.

Fifteen breaths later.

Qingfeng held the head of the Yellow Demon in one hand, her long sword flashing with lightning from time to time, stained with blood. With a flick of her wrist, the bloodstains bloomed like plum blossoms in the cold winter.

Pei Si silently gave a thumbs up.

These two senior sisters are reliable.

…………

Tianshi Cave is a temple and monastery belonging to the lineage of the dragon-slaying monk.

Pei Si skillfully set up the barbecue grill and started a fire, while Qingfeng and Mingyue skewered the meat nearby.

With the combined efforts of the three senior and junior disciples, the giant meat skewers made from the ferocious beast were quickly prepared.

Holding a large handful of meat skewers, Qingfeng excitedly ran towards Huang Ting's residence.

Huang Ting sat on the futon, her beautiful eyes slightly raised.

"Master, please try the meat skewers that your junior brother grilled, they're delicious."

The breeze came and went like the wind. After speaking, he put down the meat skewers, left excitedly, and didn't forget to close the door behind him.

Huang Ting's lips curled into a beautiful smile. She held the metal skewer in her delicate hand, took a bite of the meat skewer, and chewed it with elegance and composure.

"Hmm? Delicious." Huang Ting's beautiful eyes widened slightly.

…………

night.

While Pei Si was eating the beast's flesh, he practiced stance training to nourish his qi and blood.

Like a pillar of vital energy, it grows stronger every moment.

"At this rate, my Qi and Blood will reach the Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke level by tomorrow," Pei Si murmured to himself.

After finishing his work and taking a bath, Pei Si continued copying the talismans of the Three Mountains Exorcising Evil Talisman.

"Yin Yang Talisman proficiency +1".

"Yin Yang Talisman proficiency +1".

"Yin Yang Talisman proficiency +1".

……

5:00 AM (卯时).

Pei Si woke up early.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the [Comprehensive Mirror of All Trades] trembled slightly, releasing a wisp of white light that entered Pei Si's body.

[Judge: Pei Si]

[Position: Yin-Yang Register Holder (White)]

[Taoist Arts: Summoning Officials]

[Taoist Arts Overview: The master of the talisman can summon civil officials, military officials, fearsome beasts, and post station officials to serve him!]

[Summoning Officials: A talismanic practitioner can absorb the true energy of the Great Dao into their own body and summon civil officials such as the Yin-Yang Healing Officials, military officials such as the Gentlemen-in-Waiting and Tiger-like Warriors, fearsome beasts such as Heavenly Soldiers and Strongmen, and post station officials such as the Chariot and Red Talisman Officials to command them.]

As the white light entered Pei Si's body, the true energy of the Great Dao descended upon him.

A mysterious and profound feeling welled up in Pei Si's heart.

The officers and soldiers were transformed from the true energy of the Great Dao.

With a thought, Pei Si summoned four kinds of Daoist soldiers.

Yin-Yang Healing Official, Gentleman-in-Waiting Tiger Warrior, Heavenly Soldiers and Warriors, and Crimson Talisman Official of the Imperial Carriage.

The Yin-Yang Healing Officer is of medium build, with a face as warm as jade and eyes that radiate kindness. He wears a Hunyuan Guan (a type of Taoist talisman) on his head, a green robe, a needle pouch hanging from his waist, and a spirit banner in his hand.

Lang Li Hu Ben stood tall and straight like a pine tree, with sharp eyes and a solemn expression. He wore a three-peaked hat, a civil and military uniform, and a Qingfeng sword at his waist.

The Heavenly Warriors were tall and imposing, over twelve feet tall, with crimson faces, eyes like copper bells, wearing helmets with red tassels, and heavy crimson and gold armor. They held golden hammers in their hands and had ropes hanging from their waists.

The official in charge of the imperial chariot and red talisman had a face as bright as a star, a lithe figure, and seemed to walk on clouds. He wore a crimson feathered crown, held a red talisman in his left hand, a chariot whip in his right, and rode a chariot.

The Yin-Yang Healing Officer can harmonize the Yin and Yang energies to treat and cure diseases.

The officials and guards, like tigers and warriors, were stationed on both sides of the camp, following the enemy to the southeast, northwest, and other directions, to hunt down the wicked and capture the evil.

Heavenly warriors, summoned at will, vanquish evil spirits, destroy temples, and punish wicked men.

"Official in charge of the red talisman, convey the talisman and the order!"

The officials and soldiers of this great road are so comprehensive; the blessing of the [Summoning Officials] is terrifying.

Last night, when Senior Sister Mingyue surrounded the ferocious beast, she used the Great Dao Officers and Soldiers.

The [Yin Yang Talisman (Green)] grants the Daoist skill [Five Offices Combined Formation].

【Five Offices Combined Formation】: The newly added General, Civil Official, Military Official, Fearful Beast, Post Station Official, and General, along with the officers and soldiers of the five offices, form the Five Elements Yin Yang Formation to protect the Dharma, dispel calamities, and slay evil!

[Promotion Requirements: Perform 28 acts of healing, 28 acts of exorcising evil spirits, and 28 acts of delivering messages!]

Two lines of gilded ink-wash characters disappeared.

Twenty-eight.

It is a special number in Taoism.

The Twenty-Eight Constellations, the Twenty-Eight Heavens of the Three Realms, and the Twenty-Eight Numbers of Internal Guardians.

The character 紫薇 (zǐwēi) has 28 strokes in total, with the radical 雨 (yǔ) above and 聻 (nǐ).

Pei Si already had a plan in mind regarding the matter of treatment.

Pei Si washed up and then went to his morning class.

As soon as he sat down on the futon, Pei Si entered a meditative state under the blessing of [Clarity of the Blade Heart].

"Qi Refiner Proficiency +1".

Huang Ting paced back and forth in the hall, his hands behind his back.

Qingfeng and Mingyue were reciting, "The sound of jade pendants resounds, and all directions are purified."

"Oh? Xuanjian has entered a meditative state." Huang Ting's eyes gleamed with surprise; his talent for refining Qi was truly remarkable.

Normally, a man in his twenties like Pei Si would have countless distracting thoughts, so it was unexpected that he could enter a meditative state in an instant.

That kind of mentality is truly remarkable.

Old Blind Lin is truly lucky; at the very end, he took on such a disciple.

However, this good apprentice has now become her disciple.

Let the red light serve as a whetstone for her apprentice.

If the whetstone is worn smooth, Pei Si will reach even greater heights in the future.

If the knife breaks, it proves that Pei Si is not destined to refine Qi.

"Let me take a look at that big cat."

Huang Ting murmured to himself.
