The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 320 Shennong Emperor, Kunlun Sim

As Yaoshanpeng gradually approached the shore, everyone could gradually see clearly what he was dragging in his hand.

It was actually a huge black snake that was more than ten feet long.

However, the face of this snake was not a snake face, but a ghost face with green face and fangs, and it also exuded wisps of black and resentful aura.

"This is the ghost-faced snake, the demon in the water."

After getting ashore, Yaoshanpeng saw that everyone was unfamiliar with the creature, so he threw the ghost-faced snake on the ground and introduced it to everyone.

Snakes are yin in nature and easily devour souls, but normal monster cultivation requires absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

Those who seek shortcuts and devour resentful souls are not on the right path, but on the evil path.

If it swallows too many evil souls, the snake's face will turn into a ghost face, so it is called a ghost-faced snake.

This ghost-faced snake was probably just a snake demon that had been given spiritual power. After the battle, too many people died in the river.

The snake demon devoured corpses and souls, and gradually his grievances overwhelmed his sanity, and he was completely transformed into a demon, and even his original face turned into a ghost face.

According to legend, there is another kind of demon above the ghost-faced snake. If it becomes a demon, it can control evil spirits and monsters and cause great disasters.

Of course, this possibility is very low.

There are actually quite a few monsters in this world whose spirits are overwhelmed by resentment and whose real faces are occupied by ghosts, but no one has ever heard of a monster that can be said to be invincible.

"I've heard of the Ghost-Faced Mastiff." After hearing what Yao Shanpeng said, someone spoke hesitantly.

The others also talked about some ghost-faced monsters they had heard of.

Even in the memories of Lu Chen's predecessor, Lie Shanqing, there were some legends and records about the ghost mask.

However, as long as a ghost-faced demon appears, it will be hunted down.

Yaoshan Peng suggested slaughtering the ghost-faced snake's body and eating its flesh and blood, which was a good thing for their Yaoshan tribe.

Although it is a demon, only the soul and head of the ghost-faced snake are not edible. The other parts simply have more yin energy, which is poison to ordinary humans.

But for totem warriors like them, it doesn't matter.

Moreover, the resentful energy contained in this meat is also beneficial for the totem warrior to polish his body. Of course, he must first resist some mental interference that comes with the demon's flesh and blood.

However, the totem warriors who had crawled out of the pile of dead bodies did not care about these regrets at all.

If Lu Chen asked them to divide it up, he would not participate. The three Mingxiang brothers and Tumuzi also refused. They were all Qi cultivators who cultivated the light and spiritual energy. They could not use such dirty things, as it might cause loss of their cultivation.

The last one to refuse was Lu Chen’s mount, the iron-eating beast.

When Chishan Tong presented it, the iron-eating beast turned its head proudly, took a piece of bamboo that Nanshan Chuan was carrying on his back into its mouth, and chewed it with relish.

No words were spoken, but the meaning was clear.

It also thinks this thing is dirty!

Lu Chen looked at the iron-eating beast in surprise. A wild beast like this could be picky about food?
This is the first time I heard about it.

But it doesn’t matter for other totem warriors.

Especially for those ordinary totem warriors, no matter how weak the ghost-faced snake is, it is still comparable to a demon in the mountain-moving realm.

If his will had not been overwhelmed by resentment, and if it had not been for the existence of Yaoshan Peng, a member of the Yaoshan tribe who was good at using the power of Lingyu, he might really not have been able to take it down.

Under normal circumstances, how could ordinary totem warriors like them be qualified to eat the flesh and blood of such a big demon?
But today, the ghost-faced snake is more than ten feet long and nearly two feet wide, which is enough for everyone present to have a good meal.

"Let's set up camp for now."

After seeing everyone's gaze, Lu Chen stopped and waited until he had his meal before continuing on his way, which also gave Tumuzi enough time to build a bridge.

Building bridges and roads is definitely a great merit.

Chi Shantong arranged for some people to cut up the ghost-faced snake. Lu Chen called Yao Shanpeng back and asked, "Are there any more monsters in the river?"

"There must be some, especially in the downstream areas." Yao Shanpeng said directly.

After the river crossing war, the army of the Three Wildernesses in the East also collected and buried the bodies according to the rules.

But no one tried to salvage the body that sank into the river.

Just look at the ghost-faced snake and you will know. If a ghost-faced snake can be born, then other monsters can be born.

"Bright image."

Lu Chen called Ming Xiang and the other two over and arranged for them to follow Yao Shanpeng along the river to slay the monster.

You don't have to run far, just deal with the situation accordingly.

As long as it doesn't delay your journey, it's fine.

The four of them set out immediately to slay demons and eliminate evil, which was a great thing for the human race.

The human race needs water to establish its roots. If there are monsters in the Zhulu River, then the other emerging small tribes will certainly not be able to gain a foothold here.

The four of them went downstream, with Yaoshanpeng in charge of exploring the water. If they encountered a monster that they couldn't deal with, the other three would help deal with it.

Soon we walked for dozens of miles and saw some hidden tribes in the middle.

The four immediately told them that the demons in the river were being cleared.

These human beings are grateful.

They are all weak tribes, and perhaps they have some heritage, but after being devastated by the war, they have been severely damaged, and those who remain are the old, the weak and the sick. Every time they go to fetch water, their lives are in danger.

During the process, the four of them also informed that this was the new Shaohao, and it was also the will of Shaohao Qing of the Shaohao Wild Sky Land Department.

The tribes immediately remembered the name.

As human beings, they have all heard of the name Shaohao. After all, they are located in the Eastern Wilderness of the Three Eastern Wildernesses. It doesn't matter if they don't know who the co-leader is, but if they don't know Shaohao, then people will doubt whether you are from the Eastern Wilderness.

Shaohao's will was also for their own good, so they were naturally grateful to Shaohao.

Upon seeing this, the four of them also had some feelings and moved much faster. They walked directly for three hundred miles and dealt with more than a dozen big demons ranging from the Sky-Traveling Realm to the Mountain-Moving Realm, as well as hundreds of small demons before they stopped.

"If we go any further, we'll enter some deep mountains and forests. It's time to go back."

Yaoshanpeng said to Mingxiang and the other two.

There is no need to deal with the monsters in this forest. Even if there are human tribes in the deep mountains, they must have some background.

They don't need to worry about this kind of human tribe.

Mingxiang and the other two also knew this truth.

The four of them returned quickly, and at this time everyone had eaten the ghost-faced snake until there was not even a skeleton left - the skeleton had been refined by Tumuzi into the branches of the bridge.

The ghost-faced snake devours souls and corpses when it is alive, and after its death it can also make some contributions to the human race on both sides of the Zhuolu River.

Lu Chen's heart moved slightly, and he felt something: "Let's go."

Without any objection, everyone crossed the bridge and continued on their way.

three days later.

The team now has more than 500 members, with eight more Sky-Stepping Realm warriors, and the rest are totem warriors of the Fire-Melting Realm and the Fire-Raising Realm. There are no more below that.

These totem warriors could still find a way to cross the Zhulu River, but it was impossible for other weaker totem warriors.

Lu Chen also asked everyone to gather as much scattered power as possible.

This may be one of the few times to gather our strength and move forward to reach areas not affected by the war.

This is where the influence of the Youxiong clan reaches its limit.

Going further, even if the Youxiong clan wanted to go in, it would be difficult, unless Youxiong Xuanyuan went crazy and wanted to forcefully push the Youxiong clan to expand eastward.

But the price is self-evident. For the Zhujiang tribes in the east, if you dare to come, we will fight to the death!

You know, the sky above us hasn't changed yet! If we really want to eliminate the Miao people in Lieshan, it will be a disaster for the human race!

The same is true. Not long ago, there would be fixed East Wilderness clan tribes. After returning, many tribal warriors whose mentality had gradually stabilized would not necessarily choose to follow him back.

Lu Chen could only speed up the process of gathering the defeated soldiers. Of course, he couldn't slow down on the way back.

"Uncle Master, we can actually stop for a while."

Mingyun suggested, "If those Eastern Wasteland warriors come back, we can stop them directly."

These days, Mingyun has become more and more adapted to the role of military advisor.

“Can’t stop.”

Lu Chen shook his head: "Not to mention that we have returned a long time late, many generals and great wizards above the Sky-stepping Realm have actually returned. Even if there are still defeated soldiers behind, they are all fish that have slipped through the net, and there are very few of them. Besides..."

He glanced up at the sky: "Someone... doesn't want me to stop."

If he could stop, he would have stopped long ago.

The stop at the Deer River three days ago was the best time.

He originally asked the team to rest and let Yaoshanpeng, Mingxiang and the other two go to promote the name of "Shaohao".

But after staying there for a short while, he was sent off again.

At the beginning, he didn't feel anything was wrong, but the more time went on, the more he felt that something was wrong.

He seemed to be affected by something.

As long as he wants to stop, he can do so for a short period of time, but if it lasts for a long time, he will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.

This feeling first appeared when I was in Zhulu River, and it appeared frequently in the following three days.

This made Lu Chen feel more and more that someone was influencing him in a way that he could not perceive.

……

"Haha, what a sensitive boy."

On the Sun Star, a figure covered in fire and light said with a smile.

Although the flames covered his entire body, his voice gave people the feeling of an old man next door watching his grandson, and it did not sound explosive.

A beautiful woman next to him, whose figure was supported by colorful clouds, wearing a gorgeous colorful skirt and holding colorful ribbons in both hands, looked at the figure in the fire with complicated eyes: "Emperor of Heaven, do you think highly of this junior?"

"No, I just think it's interesting."

The Emperor chuckled and said, "Simm, you have never been the Emperor of Heaven, so you don't know that sitting on the throne all day is actually very boring. So when I have free time, I will play with these little guys."

"..."

Yes, I have never become the Emperor of Heaven.

But I also know that the Emperor of Heaven shouldn’t be so boring!

Besides, I suspect you are implying something about me.

Everyone knows that I, Sim, once seized the throne of Heavenly Emperor a long time ago, but I just didn't fight for it. But even so, I was once the White Emperor, okay? ?

Xim took a deep breath and said, "Emperor of Heaven, you don't have much time left, so don't waste your eyes on the people in the lower world."

The Emperor of Heaven said in a relaxed voice: "The sun and the moon rise and set, all things die and are born, and the Emperor of Heaven also has a limited lifespan. This is in line with the changes of heaven and earth. Sim, this is the creed of you Qigong practitioners."

Sim said slowly: "Although I am a Qi Refiner, I am born a congenital god and devil."

"The innate gods and demons who abandoned their innate bodies?" The Emperor of Heaven seemed to have thought of something funny, and there was a hint of cheerfulness in his old voice.

"..."

Sim's face darkened.

His innate body?

He really brought up something that was not relevant. If the person in front of him was not the current Emperor of Heaven, he would have swung West Kunlun over.

The form of His innate body was a dark spot in His life.

His voice turned cold and he said, "Emperor of Heaven, I came here to discuss something important with you."

"It's funny, it's still the same as it was nine thousand years ago."

The Emperor shook his head slightly, with a hint of pity in his tone.

This made Sim's face even darker. His originally beautiful face now showed a bit of murderous intent.

The Emperor of Heaven said: "Carry out your plan."

Sim paused, and the fierceness on his face disappeared: "You agree?"

The Emperor of Heaven said with a smile: "Anything that is beneficial to... Heaven and Earth, this Emperor can agree to. Of course, if the next Emperor of Heaven overthrows it, then it has nothing to do with this Emperor."

Sim was silent for a moment.

It has to be said that this Emperor of Heaven is the most friendly to all living things.

Other Heavenly Emperors, even during the reign of Taihao, would sometimes do things that were harmful to the heaven and earth, or even to the human race, because of their own preferences.

But the contemporary Emperor of Heaven has never done so.

He clearly had the opportunity to suppress Youxiong Xuanyuan's rising momentum, but he chose to sit high on the throne of the Nine Heavens and watch Youxiong Xuanyuan's rise.

Others say that the contemporary Emperor of Heaven is a person who pays attention to the overall situation.

However, Sim, an innate god and demon who has existed for who knows how many years, knows that the inheritance of the position of the Emperor of Heaven is also limited.

Although the life span of the Emperor of Heaven is also limited by witchcraft, it does not mean that the Emperor of Heaven has no way to prolong his life.

Taihao Qingdi reigned for twelve thousand years, while this generation's Shennong Yandi only reigned for nine thousand years.

During the reign of Emperor Taihao Qing, there was also a rise of fire virtue leaders, the most famous of whom was Zhurong.

But in the end, Taihao Qingdi forcibly supported the Gonggong clan and suppressed the momentum of the Zhurong clan.

Was it that Zhurong was not favored by heaven at that time?

Of course not. The momentum of Zhurong family at that time was known to the world, and there were many innate gods and demons pushing them behind the scenes. Otherwise, how did the bloodline of the innate gods and demons of Zhurong family come from?

Emperor Taihao Qingdi just disliked Zhurong because when Zhurong rose to power, he did not respect the inheritance of Taihao's lineage!

The Zhurong clan could only be inherited as the top clan tribe, but could not get involved in the position of the Human Emperor, let alone the more respected position of the Heavenly Emperor!
Although the current Emperor of Heaven shoulders the destiny of Heaven and Earth and needs to be responsible for the entire Heaven and Earth and cannot interfere in the affairs of the lower world, as time goes by, the speed at which he will be assimilated by Heaven and Earth will become faster and faster. However, this does not mean that He has no way to target Youxiong Xuanyuan.

If he wanted to, Youxiong Xuanyuan would never have taken over the world so easily.

In the Battle of Banquan, Youxiong Xuanyuan was defeated twice, but won the last time because of the participation of Qi Refiners.

In the Battle of Zhuolu, Youxiong Xuanyuan was also defeated twice, and it was also the last victory because the gods from heaven came down to earth to help Youxiong Xuanyuan.

This can already explain the problem.

The contemporary Shennong Emperor is different from the original Taihao Emperor.

As long as you are qualified, He will give up His position, even if this will make His transformation into the Tao faster and faster...

Others who say 'sacrifice themselves for the sake of heaven and earth' will be doubted.

But if Emperor Shennong said so, then maybe he really thought so.

Because this was the guarantee of his credibility for nine thousand years, even a demanding person like Emperor Taihao chose Shennong as his successor. And what he did after taking the throne was also to continue with his own ideas as always, without the slightest change.

This is enough to convince everyone of His character.
