The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 244: The Glowing Lu Chen! (Seeking monthly votes)
Lu Chen didn't think too much about it.

Killing Zhisui...

He could think, but he didn't dare to think.

The gap in strength is too big. Besides, he has other things to do now.

After calming down, Lu Chen also told Zhongli Quan and others about the current situation.

We can’t leave Hulu Mountain anymore.

Cheng Gongxing is blocking the way outside, and they can't defeat a god-level being.

If this kind of existence wanted to, it could easily turn an entire continent into ruins!
Not to mention, Yin Changsheng is suspected of betrayal!
Zhongli Quan was a little confused about Yin Changsheng's change. Yin Changsheng had no conflict with their Shaoyang Dongtian, so why did he suddenly become Cheng Gongxing's man?
"Every practitioner has his or her own secrets."

Lu Chen didn't think about this matter. Looking at Yin Changsheng's appearance at that time, it was obvious that he had completely turned to Cheng Gongxing, so Cheng Gongxing was very confident in him.

"That's bad. If the two of them join forces, even my master would find it difficult to deal with them."

Zhongli Quan couldn't help but look a little anxious.

Cheng Gongxing and Yin Changsheng, two great immortals, can his master deal with them?

But on second thought, Zhongli Quan sighed again. His master... would have no idea what was happening here.

"Not always."

Lu Chen suddenly laughed.

Zhongli Quan shook his head and said to Lu Chen: "Master is in Shaoyang Cave Heaven and cannot leave, so naturally he will not come here. My Shaoyang Cave Heaven is the last cave heaven to appear, and it took the longest time to suppress the ancient monster. Master once said that it will take at least six or seven years for him to come out..."

In six or seven years, there might be a chance to save them, but the chances are very slim.

But Zhongli Quan's words gave Lu Chen a wake-up call.

He immediately said to the others: "Now that we have eliminated all the monsters, should we go and pay our respects to the mountain god?"

Bai Weng nodded: "We should indeed go and tell the mountain god about it."

Zhongli Quan also smiled and said: "This is your chance. Now the gourd seeds, seven-color lotus seeds and seven-color lotus platform are in your hands. You can expect to become a celestial being!"

Lu Chen shook his head, but didn't say anything. He turned to look at Little Butterfly: "Where is the pangolin?"

Little Butterfly said, "It's still in the yard."

"Then let's go find the pangolin first."

Lu Chen said to the few people, and then they returned to the yard.

However, after searching for a long time, they still couldn't find the pangolin. Even the two people who were knocked unconscious and captured by Little Butterfly were missing.

"Where did he go? I clearly told him to wait here for me to come back." Little Butterfly said anxiously.

"Don't worry, there is no dead air here, which proves that no one has died here."

Lu Chen then said to Zhongli Quan and Bai Weng: "Two seniors, please take a look at the skeletons and corpses below the cliff."

Zhongli Quan asked in confusion: "What's so good about that?"

Lu Chen shook his head: "Senior, in Hulu Mountain, besides Senior Cuan Su, have we seen other people living here?"

Zhongli Quan was stunned.

Indeed, in Hulu Mountain, except for Cuan Su, all other human beings came from outside.

Then...where did the skeletons and corpses below the cliff come from?
The skeletons and corpses inside all have obvious differences, and the oldest ones are probably at least several hundred years old.

The best-preserved corpse was still very fresh, as if it had only been dead for a day or two.

Lu Chen said to Little Butterfly again: "Little Butterfly, how do you think these people appeared?"

Little Butterfly recalled for a moment and said, "It suddenly appeared in the yard, accompanied by a beam of light."

Bai Weng spoke up at this time: "Could this be a passage to the outside world?"

After he said this, he found that the other three were staring at him intently.

The corners of Bai Weng's mouth twitched for a moment, then he sighed and said, "I am just guessing, and I know the possibility is very low."

"It's not low, it's completely impossible."

Zhongli Quan shook his head and said, "There is only a time barrier here, not an independent space like the cave. If you want to tear the space to teleport here, let alone you and me, even if the Taoist master comes here in person, it may not be possible. Moreover, the chaotic turbulence of the broken space is not something that these guys who are not even Yuanshen Zhenren can resist."

Lu Chen touched his chin, his eyes flickering: "Moreover, these people's goals are very clear. They know Little Butterfly and Pangolin, and they also mentioned Calabash Brothers..."

"What is Calabash Brothers?" Zhongli Quan asked puzzledly.

“It’s a very peculiar organization.”

Lu Chen's eyes flickered. He was now certain that the corpses killed by Cuan Su under the cliff and the two mysterious people captured by the little butterfly were probably some small bugs that jumped out of the loopholes in the sky.

It is the same principle as the reincarnation space he encountered in the Journey to the West.

It is even possible that these people come from the reincarnation space.

"A strange...organization?"

Zhongli Quan was stunned for a moment, not knowing why these two nouns could be combined together.

But he didn't ask again, because Lu Chen had already spoken: "Now it's time to meet the mountain god again."

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he took the lead and headed towards the direction of the mountain god statue.

Seeing this, the other three followed behind, and soon they arrived in front of the statue of the mountain god.

As soon as they arrived in front of the mountain god statue, they all looked at the pangolin in front of them with amazement.

"Pangolin? When did you get here?"

The little butterfly said in surprise.

But the latter ignored her and just lay on the ground, as if he was asleep.

"pangolin?"

Little Butterfly walked over to check the situation. The pangolin's body was still alive, but for some reason it had been sleeping.

"Master, what happened to the pangolin?"

The little butterfly looked at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, the pangolin is fine. We just need to wait patiently for a while."

Lu Chen looked at the two unconscious people beside the pangolin.

However, the expressions of these two people now are extremely painful.

It was as if they were going through some kind of suffering. If one used the Dharma Eye to observe, one could see that the souls of the two people were floating above their bodies. Two virtual lines floated out from their bodies, like two straws, continuously transporting their soul power into the mountain god statue.

"Isn't the mountain god asleep?"

Zhongli Quan couldn't help but frown when he saw this.

"God, isn't it reasonable for God to sleep and wake up at certain times?"

Lu Chen smiled meaningfully.

Zhongli Quan frowned and glanced at Lu Chen. He always felt that Lu Chen had some secret that he hadn't told him.

At this moment, the power in the souls of the two people had been drained to the end. As the souls of the two people opened their mouths silently in fear, their souls immediately turned into two gusts of wind and dissipated.

The bodies of the two men twitched a few times and then completely lost their sound.

Soul fly away!

Seeing this, Lu Chen knew that it was time, so he bowed his head and shouted loudly: "I am Lu Ruchen, I greet Master Shaoyang!"

Zhongli Quan and the others also bowed their heads quickly: "I am Zhongli Quan, nice to meet you... Hmm? Shaoyang Zhenjun?"

Zhongli Quan suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Chen, still winking at him.

Hey, boy, you called the wrong name!

Lu Chen remained indifferent.

Zhongli Quan looked strange.

He looked at Lu Chen, then at the statue of the mountain god, and his mind was a little confused.

What do you mean?
Isn’t this the mountain god?

How did he become my own master, Shaoyang Zhenjun?

He was stunned, let alone Mr. Bai and Little Butterfly.

The two looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine Lu Chen was selling in his gourd.

The air fell silent for a moment, and everyone felt a little uneasy, fearing that Lu Chen had offended the mountain god.

"interesting."

A voice that Zhongli Quan was very familiar with suddenly sounded. Zhongli Quan looked up at the mountain god statue in astonishment.

This is……

The voice of my own master! ?

This...how is this possible!

Lu Chen smiled and looked at Zhongli Quan.

I guessed it right!

"How did you find out that the Gourd Cave Heaven was mine, old Taoist?"

From the mountain god's mural, a young voice sounded in the ears of several people. Of course, everyone knew that this was the mountain god... no, it was True Lord Shaoyang who was asking Lu Chen!
Several people were shocked!

How did the mountain god become Shaoyang Zhenjun!
Lu Chen smiled softly: "In fact, I didn't expect it at first. I also thought that the mountain god was the spirit of heaven and earth enlightened by the great master. So when I met the real master for the first time, I was very well-behaved. After all, the person in front of me is not the Taoist ancestor, but he is also related to the Taoist ancestor."

Shaoyang Zhenjun's tone showed interest: "Oh? Then when did you start to think of this? The old Taoist has always claimed that his true self is in charge of Shaoyang Cave Heaven. Even Cheng Gongxing and Yin Changsheng did not know the real identity of the old Taoist before Hulu Mountain appeared. You are not like those outsiders... have a secret source of information?"

His words are very profound.

It was obvious that after absorbing the souls of the two outsiders, he knew some secrets.

Lu Chen's heart trembled, but his face was very natural and he said: "I got the inheritance of Yizhu. Could it be that Yizhu's inheritance is wrong?"

Lu Chen is quite capable of using the tiger's skin and waving the banner.

Yizhu is well versed in ancient and modern times. His ability to inherit Yizhu's legacy means that Yizhu recognizes him.

The new owner is Taihao. Since Taihao has recognized him, is there anything wrong with his identity?

"Haha, you are indeed very smart."

Shaoyang Zhenjun smiled and didn't comment, but he didn't intend to continue the topic: "Go on."

Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, the name Taihao was still of some use.

If I don't have the identity of "successor of the changed master", will my soul power be extracted and my past explored like the previous two people?
This thought flashed through his mind, and Lu Chen immediately said, "When I first became suspicious, I actually didn't know it myself at that time. Because at that time, I pretended to be from the Shaoyang Sect, claiming to be the heir of the Shaoyang Sect. At that time, no one knew about the Shaoyang Sect except me. At least, no one knew about the Shaoyang Sect except the major sects that inherited the Dongtian Sect."

This is the truth.

For example, Yin Tong, who was from the Louguan School, did not know what the Shaoyang School was.

Those who know Shaoyang School must have had wealthy ancestors, such as Tianshi Dao, Lingbao Dao and other major Taoist sects.

"If it is said that Shaoyang Zhenjun came from the cave heaven and outsiders do not know about it, it is actually somewhat credible. After all, for example, the Queen Mother of the West in Kunlun Cave Heaven, each generation only recognizes the Queen Mother of the West and does not know her real name. Because their inheritance is only passed on in the cave heaven, it is understandable that outsiders do not know about it."

"It was only after I met Senior Zhongli that I realized that there are also big and small caves. There is the Kingdom of Queen Mother of the West in Kunlun Mountain, but there is none in Shaoyang Cave. There are only two seniors, Shaoyang Zhenjun and Zhengyang Zhenjun."

"In this case, a question arises in the mind of this junior: how does Shaoyang Dongtian find successors, and why are those successors so unknown?"

Shaoyang Zhenjun chuckled and interrupted, "Perhaps, it's just that the old Taoist doesn't like to show off his saintliness."

"It's possible, but not very likely!"

Lu Chen couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "There are many great practitioners, and there are also many who don't like to show off their saintliness. For example, Senior Dong Feng from Xinglin Cave Heaven, when he was in the mortal world, he didn't show off his great supernatural powers or great cultivation at all."

"But, even so, Senior Dong Feng is still ranked among the miraculous doctors of Jian'an!"

"In fact, cultivation is not the most important thing. What is important is character."

"Oh, what do you mean?" Zhenjun Shaoyang asked with interest.

"Because people with great moral character are always the focus of everyone's attention, just like you, Shaoyang Zhenjun. If you were really born, you would definitely not be able to hide it from the world."

Lu Chen quietly delivered a 'Traceless Flattery Palm' and continued, "When a great cultivator with high moral character reaches a certain level of cultivation, even if he does something that seems extremely trivial, it is actually a big deal for ordinary people."

"So, as long as a great cultivator takes the initiative to cause something to happen, there will definitely be clues left behind."

As he spoke, Lu Chen looked at the stunned Zhongli Quan and said, "Zhengyang Zhenjun doesn't have much reputation in the secular world, but there are some clues that can be found. He is from the Zhongli Junwu family. Am I right?"

Zhongli Quan nodded subconsciously.

His father Zhongli Zhang was a general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his brother Zhongli Jian was the General of the Central Army.

He was unknown in the Zhongli family, but his own family was actually prosperous for a time. After he embarked on the path of cultivation, he even encouraged his brother to practice as well.

However, his brother was not familiar with this way. After he cultivated his magical powers and reached the level of a refiner, he died of old age. However, when he was alive, he was revered as an immortal by mortals.

"Is this the clue?"

Zhongli Quan asked hesitantly.

"Of course, as long as there are traces of existence, there must be traces to be found."

Lu Chen nodded, then turned his head to look at the mountain god statue and continued, "So, I guess the reason why True Lord Zhengyang is not well-known in the secular world is also due to the means of True Lord Shaoyang. But even so, the bloodline inheritance is not easy to be cut off. Therefore, Senior Zhongli still has a provenance, but you, senior, really have no provenance at all."

"Oh? Is that all?" asked Master Shaoyang.

"Of course it's not just these."

Lu Chen shook his head and said, "I guessed that the mountain god had something to do with you. It was actually after I met you yesterday. Not long ago, after Master Zhengyang used the Shaoyang Qi, I and others were trapped and could only think of a way to escape. So I asked Senior Zhengyang to tell me everything he knew."

"At that time, I suddenly discovered something."

"Shaoyang, when yin reaches its extreme, yang is born! It is also the exterior of Jueyin!"

"The great sun in the east is about to rise but has not yet risen, which is Shaoyang. How close is this Taoist name to the scene at Hulu Mountain?"

"Hulu Mountain is a place where evil demons are suppressed. This place of evil demons is not with the Scorpion King and the Golden Snake Goddess, but with a certain evil demon at a deeper level."

"Even the changes in the Yin-Yang Realm are caused by the evil energy generated by this evil demon!"

"Why is the Gourd Cave Heaven different from other cave heavens? It is also because of this evil demon."

"The Gourd Cave Heaven does not refer to other cave heavens, but to the entire world!"

"The so-called Hulu Mountain is just the core area of ​​Hulu Cave Heaven."

“So, I guess that the changes in the Yin-Yang world are also related to this place. This is the beginning of all the reforms.”

"The world is a gourd, with Yin at the bottom and Yang at the top. This is also the place where Yin and Yang are entangled. Yin is Yang and Yang is also Yin."

"To be more precise, this is where the final evil demon was suppressed, so this is actually the beginning of the yin and yang realms in this world, and it is also the location of the most yin place."

"However, the Extreme Yin Land was suppressed, just like the birth of Yang in Yin, and a Gourd Mountain appeared."

"Hulu Mountain is yang, suppressing evil spirits!"

“Therefore, this place cannot give birth to the Yin-Yang Dharma Realm that symbolizes Yin, but can only give birth to things that symbolize Yang.”

"This is the gourd seed that was born from the raging fire!"

"This is the Shaoyang Qi formed from the Extreme Yin!"

At this point, Lu Chen's eyes sparkled, and the originally vague clues quickly formed a clear line in his mind: "At first, these were just guesses, and I was not sure, so I only used this guess as a backup plan. After all, it is too far-fetched to link the senior's Taoist name with Hulu Mountain."

“So when the Green Snake King and Zhang Ling were chasing me and my group, I chose the greater possibility and prepared to go out and look for help.”

"It's just a coincidence that Cheng Gongxing is blocking the door from the outside world. Senior Cuan Su and I can't get out. We have no choice but to go to Hulu Mountain to avoid his edge."

"At that time, I was still not sure that you were Shaoyang Zhenjun. Fortunately, Little Butterfly came to the rescue with the Diamond Sword and successfully killed the Green Snake King, scaring Zhang Ling away."

"At that time, I was actually a little worried, because Cheng Gongxing and Yin Changsheng were outside. If Zhang Ling informed them of the news, they would definitely come in and kill me and the others."

"But...I guessed wrong!"

"They didn't come in!"

"They didn't even send in a group of people to investigate the situation. At this time, I am even more confident."

"Cheng Gongxing didn't come in to hunt down the poor Taoist and others, so he must be afraid of the existence in Hulu Mountain. And the only one in Hulu Mountain that he is afraid of is the mountain god of Hulu Mountain."

"But how does Cheng Gongxing know the details of the mountain god of Hulu Mountain?"

"Cheng Gongxing is a man who follows the will of heaven and obeys the rules. After several overt and covert contacts, I have a general understanding of his character."

"Until a certain stage, he will definitely not come into contact with people or things at this stage, because this will change the story line and break the rules he abides by."

"The story line of Hulu Mountain will probably only appear when the seal is broken. In other words, before Hulu Mountain appears, Cheng Gongxing will not have any contact with the mountain god of Hulu Mountain."

"But his behavior in the outside world doesn't seem like he has no contact."

"Then... why is this?"

"Zhengyang Zhenjun said that the number of gods and immortals in the world can be counted on one hand! And among them, the only powerful god in the immortal realm who could have appeared when the mountain god of Hulu Mountain was born but never appeared there is you, Shaoyang Zhenjun, who can correspond to it."

"Cheng Gongxing's fear of the mountain god is false, his fear of Shaoyang Zhenjun is real!"

"Mr. Cheng is good at the Nine Chapters of Divination. He didn't know the relationship between the mountain god and Shaoyang Zhenjun before, but after seeing Hulu Mountain, he might be able to figure it out."

"It will take six or seven years for Shaoyang Zhenjun to be born, and it will take another six or seven years for Hulu Mountain to completely merge with this world. Under such a coincidence, Cheng Gongxing can be sure that there is a number one person in Hulu Mountain who he cannot deal with, and that person is you!"

"Shaoyang Zhenjun!"

"That's right. He didn't dare to enter the mountain because Hulu Mountain is the territory of Shaoyang Zhenjun. Here, Zhengyang Zhenjun is the king!"

At this moment, Lu Chen straightened his chest, spoke quickly, eloquently, and with great power!
In the eyes of Little Butterfly, Bai Weng and even Zhongli Quan, his whole body seemed to be glowing!
　Ah! Finally I feel comfortable! The line that the mountain god of Hulu Mountain is Shaoyang Zhenjun Wang Xuanfu is also harmonious, right?
