The immortal white ape has been listening to Taoism for 30 years

Chapter 50 Strange Disaster
"After breaking through the Ape Transformation and Body Refining Technique, my body's passive absorption efficiency of spiritual energy should be improved, right?"

Ye Cheng closed his eyes and carefully sensed the vortex channel in his mind.

There are still some colorful light spots floating down.

The number is not large, and it should be related to the concentration of heaven and earth spiritual energy in the environment.

After observing for a long time, Ye Cheng already had an idea.

Not all the spiritual energy particles of heaven and earth have escaped.

Out of eight hundred aura particles, the body can absorb about one.

That is about one point two thousandths.

"This ratio is simply too low."

Ye Cheng sighed.

Although it is slightly better than before the breakthrough.

It can absorb these meager spiritual energy particles, but its impact on the body is really limited.

However, if the time line is extended, spiritual energy particles can be automatically absorbed every day. Even if it can only absorb one and two thousandths each time, it is still quite impressive over time.

Those innate spiritual bodies automatically absorb spiritual energy particles from birth. Even if they can only retain a little bit, after several years of accumulation, their physical talents will be much higher than ordinary people.

"No matter what, the help this spiritual bone will bring to me will gradually be reflected in the future."

Ye Cheng was not in a hurry.

This spiritual bone cannot be based on short-term results, but must focus on the long-term.

He checked the time and saw that it was getting late, so he had to go to his second senior brother for dinner.

into the night.

Zhongnan City.

Since Chongyang Temple, a major Taoist sect, is nearby, Zhongnan City is relatively stable.

Since the establishment of the city, Zhongnan City has not had any incidents related to monsters, and it is regarded as the most suitable place to live in Ximing County.

People with connections have always tried to move their families here.

This caused Zhongnan City to become larger and larger, and finally Chongyang Temple had to impose restrictions.

This prevented Zhongnan City from getting out of control.

"It's dry, be careful with candles."

Silent night.

A watchman was walking on the deserted and empty street, holding a lantern, banging the bamboo clapper in his hand and shouting.

Due to the existence of monsters, the nightlife in this world is relatively barren, and ordinary people often don't go out after dark.

Although the safety factor in Zhongnan City is very high, strange things have never happened.

However, under the jurisdiction of Chongyang Temple, the entertainment industry in Zhongnancheng is greatly restricted and will only be open during the day.

When the watchman passed by an alley, he vaguely heard something moving inside.

He stopped, hesitated, and then walked slowly in holding a lantern.

The alley was very dark, and even the light from the lantern could not reach very far.

With the help of the moonlight, he vaguely saw a rather tall white banyan tree growing in a courtyard not far away. Its umbrella-like crown stretched out from the courtyard wall, covering most of the alley.

A cold wind suddenly blew through.

The watchman couldn't help but shrink his neck.

It's early autumn now, the weather is still hot, and the wind blowing is hot.

What the hell is this cold wind?

The watchman felt flustered for no reason, and turned around to leave the alley.

Suddenly, he felt his neck tighten, as if it was wrapped around something.

He quickly threw away the bamboo clapper and lantern in his hand and reached out to touch them.

The next moment, he felt difficulty breathing, and his body seemed to be suspended by something.

If anyone had been at the scene, they would have found a white aerial root hanging down from the banyan tree, wrapped around the watchman's neck, and directly hung him in the air.

What's even more terrifying is that there are still many aerial roots hanging on the white banyan tree, and there are even more than a dozen aerial roots hanging people.

The whole scene looks weird and terrifying.

Just before dawn, the man hanging from the aerial roots of the banyan tree was suddenly let down.

Those people didn't seem to be dead, but their movements were stiff, their expressions were expressionless, and their eyes were empty.

It wasn't long before the stiffness on these people seemed to have recovered a lot.

The watchman walked to the lantern that had already been extinguished, reached out and picked it up without leaving the bamboo clasp, and then walked slowly out of the alley with a strange smile on his lips.

In the blink of an eye, it was more than a month later.

early morning.

Ye Cheng opened his eyes and stretched, feeling really refreshed.

He took the towel, basin, toothbrush and green salt, walked out of the house, and started washing.

After washing, he used a comb to comb all the hair on his head and body.

The originally messy hair suddenly looked much smoother.

He put on another Taoist robe.

"Hey, my body grows a bit fast, and I can't wear it anymore."

Ye Cheng looked at the plump white ape in the bronze mirror, almost bursting the Taoist robe, and he couldn't help but sigh.

This is a set of Taoist robes specially customized by him. Unexpectedly, they are a bit too small.

Then, he also put on the Taoist crown.

The reason why I dress so formally is because today is the annual worship day of Chongyang Temple.

In the past two years, Sister Yu Zhen could bring him a piece of monster meat every time he visited the temple.

The taste of monster meat jerky is not very good, but it contains a lot of energy and is even more effective than the Qingling Pill.

Moreover, monster meat has the effect of strengthening the body and enhancing qi and blood.

If you take monster meat jerky for a long time, your physical strength will also increase to an inhuman level.

Finally, Ye Cheng put the Wuwu Sword on his back.

Standard Taoist dress.

In Changchun Palace.

A large number of Taoists gathered.

Today is the annual worship day to worship the supreme Taoist ancestor of the Taoist sect. Unless they are out on a mission, everyone who is in the temple must come here.

Even most of the Taoists who were originally in charge of Zhongnan City have returned.

Among the many Taoists, one person stood out, naturally Ye Cheng.

Although he could only be considered average in stature, his body shape was almost comparable to that of two or three adult men.

Two thick arms completely held up the sleeves of the Taoist robe.

Next to Ye Cheng is Senior Brother Dique and other Taoists from Yuqing Palace.

"Junior Brother Xiaobai, you must follow me closely from now on, do you understand?"

Senior brother Dique stammered and warned.

Today is the day of worship. It is an important occasion and nothing can go wrong.

The master specially told him to watch Xiaobai carefully.

Ye Cheng nodded quickly.

He will definitely be honest.

However, he underestimated the boring process of worshiping.

It lasted until the afternoon and was not over yet.

Ye Cheng was already hungry.

According to the regulations of the day of worshiping the Taoist, from last night to the end of worshiping the Taoist ancestor, no food can be eaten during this period, and one must be fasting to show respect for the supreme Taoist ancestor.

It wasn't until about three o'clock in the afternoon that the worship service finally ended.

"Senior Brother Dique, didn't you say that after the worship, there will be a lot of good food to eat?"

Ye Cheng followed senior brother Dique out of the Changchun Palace and asked curiously.

"Yes, it's right over at the dining hall, but there's nothing delicious. Usually only Taoists from those small dojos go there to eat. Junior Brother Xiaobai, why are you asking this? If you're hungry, I'll give it to you when I get back. Make delicious food.”

Senior brother Dique said intermittently.

"I heard from Sister Yu Zhen before that there was monster meat available, so I was very curious."

Ye Cheng said in ventriloquism.

"Well, there is monster meat jerky. This monster meat jerky doesn't taste very good and is unpalatable. We usually don't eat it. Does Junior Brother Xiaobai like to eat this very much?"

Senior brother Dique said in surprise.

Ye Cheng was filled with emotion, Second Senior Brother, a man who is full does not know that a man who is hungry is hungry.

Being in the Yuqing Palace and being a direct disciple of Master Yuyang, Senior Brother Dique doesn't have to worry about training resources. There is really no need to eat such unpalatable things as monster meat.

The main reason why Ye Cheng never forgets it is because he lacked training resources in the past, so he has a deep memory of the monster meat.

"No, I've had it before, and it was really unpleasant."

When Senior Brother Dique said this, Ye Cheng lost interest.

After returning to Taoyuan, senior brother Dique began to work in the kitchen.

Ye Cheng squatted by the pond, took a bottle of food pills, and threw them into the water one by one.

When he dropped it, golden fish as long as chopsticks rolled out, making waves and fighting for the food balls.This is a kind of golden arowana fed by the second senior brother.

The second senior brother said that the meat is extremely delicious, and after eating it once, you will definitely have endless aftertaste.

When the arowana grows enough to be caught, he will make a full fish feast and invite Ye Cheng to taste it.

After feeding him for a while, senior brother Dique called him to eat in the room.

Looking at the large table of sumptuous dishes, Ye Cheng's appetite was whetted, and he sat down immediately, not caring about appearance, and started eating in big mouthfuls.

Senior brother Dique seemed to be very polite when eating, chewing carefully and slowly.

One person and one ape were eating when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, followed by a young Taoist boy rushing in.

"Master, the head of the palace asks you to go there quickly."

The young Taoist didn't even bother to salute and said quickly.

"Liang Dong, do you know what is going on?"

Senior brother Dique quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks and asked curiously.

"Master, I heard that something happened in Zhongnan City."

Liang Dong said quickly.

There was a look of worry on his young face, because his family was also in Zhongnan City.

"Something happened in Zhongnan City?"

Senior brother Dique looked shocked.

Zhongnan City is backed by the Double Ninth Festival Temple. In the more than 300 years since the city was built, there has never been any major incident.

Now that Master can call him over, it can be imagined that what happened in Zhongnan City is by no means a trivial matter.

Could it be that something strange happened?
But even if it's a strange thing, it's not so stressful.

Zhongnan City is very close to the Chongyang Temple. If something big happens, the real people from the Chongyang Temple can go to support at any time.

"Unless it's a more terrifying disaster"

Senior brother Dique couldn't help but feel his heart sink.

This is just guesswork.

But if a strange disaster really happens in Zhongnan City, it will definitely not be that simple.

"Junior Brother Xiaobai, eat slowly by yourself."

In a hurry, the Dique Taoist spoke faster and stuttered even more.

"Senior brother, I'll go with you."

Ye Cheng quickly scooped up all the rice in the bowl and put it into his mouth, his cheeks bulging out. Then he put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and spoke in ventriloquism.

What happened in Zhongnan City?
Will it have any impact on the Double Ninth Festival?

Ye Cheng naturally had to understand it as soon as possible and be aware of it.

"also."

The Dique Taoist didn't pay attention and nodded.

So the two of them left Taoyuan and went straight to Yuqing Palace.

By the time they arrived at Yuqing Hall, some other Taoists had already arrived.

"Senior Brother Dique."

"Uncle Di Que."

"Uncle Di Que."

"Master."

These people all saluted and said hello.

Master Yuyang only had three major disciples and one daughter. However, there were still twenty or thirty Taoist disciples registered in Yuqing Hall.

In addition to Liang Dong, the Dique Taoist also has two other disciples.

In addition, the eldest brother and Master Qianhe also have disciples, but they all took them to Wushuang City.

Only the third senior brother, Wumu Taoist, did not accept a disciple.

As Ye Cheng is a disciple of Master Yuyang, these Taoists naturally greeted him in the same way and were quite respectful.

Although Ye Cheng is a white ape, his status in the Jade Qing Palace is higher than all of them just because of his status as a true disciple.

Not long after, Master Yuyang came to the palace and said in a deep voice: "I just got the news that a strange disaster occurred in Zhongnan City and it has been completely destroyed."

"what?"

The Taoists present were all shocked.

Although they have received the news that something happened in Zhongnan City.

I didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

This is no ordinary strange disaster.

Before even the Chongyang Temple could react, Zhongnan City fell.

Some of the Taoist family members present were in Zhongnan City, and their faces suddenly looked anxious.

The fall of Zhongnan City means that the situation is very serious, and the residents inside do not know whether they are alive or dead.

"Master, why is the situation so serious? Didn't the people over there just come back last night?"

The Dique Taoist couldn't help but ask.

This speed is too fast.

Ridiculously fast.

"The fall is a fact. The entire Zhongnan City has been plunged into a white mist. It is not yet known whether the source is a high-level monster, a strange plant or a monster."

Master Yuyang shook his head, "From now on, the entire Chongyang Temple will be on high alert. You will lead people to investigate all blind spots within the scope of our Yuqing Palace to prevent the emergence of abnormal leakage points of strange power."

"Yes, Master."

The Dique Taoist hurriedly accepted the order, and then asked, "Are you saying that the strange disaster in Zhongnan City this time may be related to the Black Seal Monster Cult?"

"We don't know yet, but we can't rule out the possibility."

Master Yuyang shook his head, then turned and left the hall.

As one of the four giants of Chongyang Temple, he had to go to Changchun Palace to meet with other real people to discuss how to deal with the strange disaster in Zhongnan City.

Rescue Zhongnan City. We cannot act rashly until we find out the origin of the strange disaster.

After all, some of the things produced by strange pollution are so weird and terrifying.

After Master Yuyang left, Master Dique quickly assigned tasks to the Taoists present and made every effort to investigate the area under the jurisdiction of Yuqing Palace.

Not only the Yuqing Hall, but also various dojos in Chongyang Temple are in progress at this moment.

"Senior brother Dique, why didn't you arrange a task for me?"

Ye Cheng saw that all the Taoists in the temple were assigned tasks.

"Junior Brother Xiaobai, don't worry, there is a mission for you. You go around and observe secretly if there are any suspicious suspects who are moving around, you can tell me as soon as possible."

The Dique Taoist said with a smile.

"Okay, brother."

Ye Cheng nodded.

He knew that the second senior brother deliberately arranged this easy job.

The Chongyang Temple mobilized so many people, and it was impossible for the hidden Black Seal Monster Sect Anzi to show up at this time.

After leaving the Yuqing Palace, Ye Cheng prepared to go out to practice the ape strike technique.

Due to the worship day, he didn't have time to practice today.

So he quickly rushed into the woods and began to practice the ape attack technique.

As for the tasks assigned by his second senior brother, he had already forgotten about them.

After a long time, Ye Cheng stopped on a big tree, and the boiling inner energy gradually calmed down.

Since his cultivation broke through to the fourth level of Qi Realm, his ape strike technique has become faster.

"Zhongnan City is at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, not far from the Double Ninth Festival Temple. I wonder if I can see it?"

Ye Cheng's heart suddenly moved, and he became very curious about the so-called strange disaster.

Thinking of this, he decided to go and have a look.

Of course, for his own safety, he will definitely not leave the Double Ninth Festival area.

It won't be too close to Zhongnan City.

Whoosh!
Ye Cheng immediately jumped off the big tree, landed on another tree, used the ape attack technique, and quickly flew through the woods.

Due to a detour, it took Ye Cheng almost half an hour to reach the outskirts of the Chongyang Temple.

He climbed to the top of the highest mountain, stood on an unknown towering ancient tree, and looked beyond Zhongnan Mountain.

"That is?"

Ye Cheng looked at a huge city at the foot of the mountain, shrouded in white mist, looming.

Today is obviously a sunny and good weather.

Moreover, there can be no fog at this time.

But the area where Zhongnan City is located is covered in white fog.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng's eyes narrowed.

because
The blue disk in my mind actually started to rotate slightly.
