Don't come any closer!

Chapter 92 Don't come any closer!

When Zhang Wei was kicked out by the silhouette, his heart skipped a beat.

His idea was that the patriarch's external interference was too strong, and when the silhouette of the Three Realms was closed, his own rewards were also stolen along with it.

But looking at the results now, it's hard to say who was stronger or weaker; in any case, both sides have taken a step back.

The story of "Nine Oxen and Two Tigers" is a well-known tale in the mythology of the Yellow Emperor.

Legend has it that Chenxiang, the son of the Third Holy Mother, once received divine assistance and gained immense strength after eating eleven steamed buns.

In later vernacular stories, the phrase "the strength of nine oxen and two tigers" is often used to describe the strength of a military general. Whenever this phrase appears, it symbolizes the emergence of yet another invincible figure.

Even in historical records, the first famous person to possess such courage and strength is the well-known King Zhou of Shang – Di Xin.

Both the "Emperor's Century" and the "Records of the Grand Historian: Annals of Yin" record it, with the latter stating that it "could pull nine oxen backwards and change beams and pillars."

Now, Zhang Wei also possesses such exaggerated strength, and on top of that, he has the immense strength he already possesses, which can be increased by ten thousand jin.

Zhang Wei was quite excited, but this was a public place after all, and he wasn't about to put on a monkey show for everyone. Of course, keeping his wealth hidden was also one of the reasons he chose to suppress his restless emotions.

When Zhang Wei was working in the meteorological department, the veteran inspectors taught him to keep a few trump cards up his sleeve.

With the lightning magic exposed, these newly acquired magical talents became Zhang Wei's new trump card.

Happy times are always fleeting.

Dozens of new and old inspectors gathered together, and the scene of laughter and banter didn't last long. The atmosphere in Taihang suddenly changed after receiving news that the silhouette had unexpectedly ended.

The inspectors, including Zhang Wei, who were involved in the incident, were also invited to recount their experiences in various rooms.

at the same time.....

In a scenic mountain range with endless green hills, there is a solitary peak that is barren and stands out out of place in this green environment.

The solitary peak itself is not very tall, and it is made even more difficult to find by being obscured by the surrounding lush mountains.

You won't discover the scenery here unless you actually walk to the foot of the mountain.

Of course, if someone saw such a barren, isolated peak in the middle of a lush mountain range, they would avoid it like the plague.

But on this solitary peak where even wild grass doesn't grow and no one ever comes, a middle-aged Taoist priest dressed in a simple robe sits cross-legged on the summit, his kind and benevolent face now clouded with an unyielding gloom.

Beside him, a giant fan shaped like a banana leaf, with cloud and thunder patterns on it and the inscription "Yuanshi's Order" written below, was casually tossed to the ground.

Not far in front of him, a deep and long cave entrance, tens of meters wide, was spewing out wisps of colorful mist.

If you get close to the cave entrance, you can see that the originally dark cave is now brightly lit. Below the narrow tunnel is a spacious mountainside space with pavilions and towers standing in all directions, bricks and tiles piled with gold and jade, and pearls forming an underground river.

If you get even closer, and put your ear to the entrance of the cave, you can faintly hear the girl's clear and melodious laughter and the scholars' conversations.

Even more intricate and mysterious characters are engraved on the walls of the downward-facing tunnel, flickering faintly with the lights inside the mountain, drawing people forward to take a look.

Suddenly, the Taoist opened his tightly closed eyes.

At the same time, the colorful glow on the mountaintop disappeared, and the gold, silver, jewels, laughter, and chatter inside the cave vanished.

Everything seemed to have vanished, leaving only a wide, dark opening.

"Still not giving up!" the Taoist priest said.

"Give up? Why should we give up? Even you are still obsessed with stealing other people's partners, so why should we be celibate? Besides, it's all about the winner taking all the blame. We had no complaints about losing to you back then, but now that the opportunity has come again, what's wrong with taking a gamble?"

As the Taoist priest spoke, a voice, neither male nor female, seemed to come from the deep cave that led straight to the bottom of the mountain: "Why not do this? Since you two are already in trouble, you might as well cast aside all your worries and go all in. Everyone is trapped, but you are still closer than Him. Even if you can't go in your true form, it's better to pay some price to get an identity and go over than to stay on this mountain laughing and raging."

"Don't worry, although we're willing to take a gamble, we won't leave the mountain until the time is right. Besides, there's a seal in place, so no one will notice you if you walk around for a little while before then!"

Hearing the sounds coming from the cave, the Taoist priest paused slightly in his light tapping of his knee, a cryptic smile appearing on his face. He said, "You're so kind? Tell me the price!"

"Hahaha, how dare we ask the Celestial Master for a price, but if you insist, we dare not refuse. All we've done is to trouble the Celestial Master to come and spare us from being killed and sealed away again if we fail!"

"Of course, if it succeeds, I will always remember the Celestial Master's kindness!"

Black smoke billowed from the cave, reflecting the Taoist's uncertain expression.

After a long while, the Taoist priest let out a long sigh, grabbed the fan beside him, and stood up abruptly.

The cave, which had been silent for so long, finally could not hold back any longer. One after another, kind, ferocious, and bewitching heads and bodies squeezed out of the dark cave, letting the lightning sealed on the cave entrance fall on their bodies, leaving them covered in wounds, all to stare at the Taoist priest.

"Very tempting terms!"

"Indeed, I can't compete with Him in terms of status, but my advantage lies in being close to the source. As long as I don't cause any upheaval in the laws and order, I'll be invincible once I gain the upper hand!" The Taoist said, stepping towards the cave in front of him. Looking at the group of demons and monsters crowding the entrance, his smile grew even brighter. "Thank you all for your reminder, but I don't think your conditions are quite suitable. How about we follow my method?"

Although the tone was questioning, the Taoist's steps never stopped. Even the talismans, chains, and other nodes used to set up the seal around the cave entrance on the mountaintop gradually concealed their divine power and dissipated the seal as the Taoist moved forward.

The breaking of the seal was originally a good thing.

But when paired with the Taoist priest who walked in with a smile and a precious fan, the scene had a chilling quality no matter how you looked at it.

The heads, already crowded at the entrance of the hole, now frantically tried to push down, and when they couldn't get down, they started kicking wildly, completely disregarding the friendship that had been sealed away for many years.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

"Master, let's talk this out. Please don't be so impulsive!"

"We were wrong, we shouldn't have disturbed your Daoist heart, you are a magnanimous person... Master Sa, Sa Shoujian, if there comes a future, I will make you suffer a terrible death!"
