Chapter 72 The hidden truth, the tempting corner "Congratulations." The figure of Instructor Huang and his gentle voice immediately appeared in Tao Tie's ears. It started to drizzle above Tao Tie's head. The rain, full of vitality and energy, soaked Tao Tie's entire body. The hidden injuries caused by the extreme explosion in a very short period of time will be immediately healed and will no longer pose any hidden dangers. The almost exhausted mana began to recover slowly. However, Tao Tie did not absorb too much energy to restore his magic power, and stopped when it was enough to ensure his safety. As for mana, it is better to increase and restore it by collecting herbs and refining qi. Otherwise it will easily lead to irritability and not be pure enough.

"I didn't think you could kill Him." Instructor Huang then spoke up again, "I just wanted you to put aside your calculations and fight with all your strength. Whether you win or lose, it's all good." "Forehead……" Upon hearing this, Tao Tie didn't know how to respond for a moment. The coach really wanted him to have a fight? But putting aside the idea of ​​calculation, it was something he had not taken into consideration. All I can say is that Instructor Huang really had good intentions for him. Tao Tie deeply understood this. Because after putting most of what he had learned into full play in the life-and-death fight just now, he had already gained wonderful benefits. It is like high manganese steel, which is good in itself, but it needs to be smelted and forged by fire and hammer to be forged into a sharp sword that can cut through hair. It can be said that there has been a qualitative transformation. After this battle, the progress of the various skills, magical powers, and spells on the [Knowing Everything] panel is secondary. Instead, he had a deeper understanding of the path of "omniscience and omnipotence" that he had chosen before. This kind of realization is immeasurable! After a moment of silence, Tao Tie was grateful and said truthfully, "Teacher, with your support, I thought I might win, but I didn't think I could kill him. This result also surprised me." "Accident?" Huang Jiaoxi smiled and said, "It is indeed a bit unexpected, a pleasant surprise." "What's the surprise?" Mr. Qiu's figure suddenly appeared. Unlike Instructor Huang, Qiu Lao came up and said directly, "Tao boy, based on your last three moves, it's not a surprise that you were able to kill this guy, but it's only natural." As he said that, Old Qiu changed the subject: "Come on, Tao boy, tell me in detail how you came up with the last three moves."

What Mr. Qiu called the last three moves refers to the flickering of reality and illusion, the combination of "Tongyou" and "Zhan Yao" to bind ghosts, and the transformation of Tai Chi's original energy into pure Yang to destroy ghosts and gods. These are not secrets that need to be hidden. Especially in front of Instructor Huang and Mr. Qiu. Tao Tie replied without any hesitation: "First of all, I have to thank Instructor Huang for letting me watch carefully and helping me to thoroughly understand the relationship between myself and the Five Ghosts. Through this, I realized that I can flash between reality and the void for a short period of time." This is the truth. However, behind the truth, there is a point that is not easy to explain. That is, the principle of Void Flicker is indeed like this, but a large part of the inspiration comes from the summoner skills of the previous life LOL: Flash, and the operation of flashing to avoid skills. Therefore, Tao Tie also planned to name this move Flash. "Thank me for what I did." Huang Junshi waved his hands, not taking credit for it, "This is your own luck and understanding. Others may not be able to understand it even if they get guidance." Mr. Qiu nodded in agreement and said meaningfully, "If you don't meet a wise man to pass on the secret, it's useless to talk. This is what it means." Tao Tie seemed to have realized something, but he didn't really understand anything. He simply stopped worrying about it and continued, "The 72 Earthly Evil Techniques are the pinnacle of techniques, and they are certainly not ordinary magic. The magic of using them lies in one's heart. I had nothing to do, so I figured out a way to combine 'Passing Through the Underworld' and 'Slaying Demons'." When Huang Junshi heard this, his eyes moved slightly but he didn't say anything. Elder Qiu spoke directly, taking advantage of the topic: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... If you are just speculating blindly, then those guys who practice the law and use the technique rigidly will not even have the ability to think, and will just be blind!" Tao Tieke did not dare to comment on this and acted as if he had not heard anything. Silky changed the subject and said: “For the last move, I must thank my instructor. It was my instructor who taught me that as long as I have a sword in my heart, everything can become a sword. So I thought, everything in the world is nothing but one energy, and the key point of Taiyi Splitting Light Sword Technique is not on the "sword" but on the splitting of light. How to split light? You must first get the "light" before you can share. This light is not any other light, but the Taiyi Jinhua, which is the innate Taiyi true qi inside, that is, the Taiji primordial qi. Therefore, the sword is the qi, and the qi is the sword." "Great! What a great saying! The sword is the energy, and the energy is the sword!" Hearing this, Huang Junshi clapped his hands and laughed. The hearty laughter was full of relief. Mr. Qiu at the side also smiled: "It's really good. The old man's efforts were not in vain." This statement refers to the recommendation of "Taiyi Fenguang Sword Art". As for the principle that Tai Chi gives birth to two opposites, that solitary yang cannot grow and solitary yin cannot be born, there is no need to explain it in detail. "Student Tao Tie thanks both teachers."

Tao Tie took the opportunity to bow to Instructor Huang and Mr. Qiu and expressed his sincere gratitude. You can't be ungrateful. Whether it is the younger Huang Junshi or the older Qiu, they are all people with great cultivation. You can naturally tell whether it is sincere or false. After accepting Tao Tie's sincere thanks, Old Qiu stroked his not-so-long white beard and said suddenly, "Junshi boy, why don't you go back to the county town to take a look? County Magistrate Miao and City God Ke are rectifying the internal order of the City God's netherworld. As the head of the Immortal God Department and one of the three giants of Liuxian County, why don't you go there to be a witness?" "Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Qiu." Upon hearing this, Huang Junshi glanced at Tao Tie, who was sure that he would not suffer any hidden injuries, said something, and turned into a ray of golden light and disappeared in an instant. Listen and listen. Why didn’t Mr. Qiu remind him earlier or later, so why did he remind him after Tao Tie sincerely thanked him? Also, is Teacher Huang the kind of person who would neglect such a big thing? Tao Tie understood instantly that Mr. Qiu wanted to say something, but Instructor Huang, as the head of the Immortal God Department, was not convenient for him to be present. Thinking of this, Tao Tie, who had just stood up, bowed deeply again. Mr. Qiu was very satisfied with Tao Tie's cleverness and found some fun in Huang Junshi's love of teaching and educating people. Then he said, "Brother Tao, I won't ask you how you know why the dead guy reacted so strongly to that foul name. I only want to ask you one question, do you know whose descendant that guy is?" "I know, Mr. Qiu." Tao Tie nodded and replied softly without hesitation. The most important thing between people is sincerity. Even after Mr. Qiu has said so much, if Tao Tie still denies it, that would be really shameless. It was precisely because he knew that the Eighty-Seventh Son was the descendant of the Lord of Mount Dadong that Tao Tie firmly believed in the information triggered by [Knowledge of All Things] at that critical moment of life and death. With such malicious words, he controlled Eighty-Seven Sons for two seconds, thus buying time for Ten Thousand Swords to return to their origin. The Lord of Dadong Mountain is a natural mountain god, whose prototype is a divine turtle that can carry mountains and travel. His offspring are naturally turtles and tortoises. Logically speaking, the race of the eighty-seven sons should not be "ghosts" but "demon turtles". But when the eighty-seventh egg was still in the egg and had not yet hatched, the Lord of Dadongshan, who was sleeping soundly, accidentally turned over and stepped on the egg, crushing it. And the eighty-seven eggs that have not yet fully formed in the eggs. The whole body, from head to toe, was in tatters. The Lord of Mount Dadong had his own authority over the underworld, so he saved the soul of the Eighty-Seventh Son and transformed it into a ghost. He was also granted a fiefdom along the Yudai River and became a ghost. Because the three southwestern states were incorporated into the territory of the Dayong Dynasty, it was no longer the case that the Lord of Mount Dadong could enfeoff ghosts and gods however he wanted. From a legal perspective, only those eighty-seven disciples who were granted titles by the imperial court could be considered legitimate gods, rather than obscene worshippers. The official from the Ministry of Rites and Shrines who was in charge of this matter might be a mischievous person.

After learning about the relevant information and deeds of Eighty-Seven, he jokingly said: "Since you are a turtle, you should be the chief clerk of the prison department." The head jailer of a human prison, commonly known as a prison boss. What is the chief jailer of the underworld prison commonly known as? The head of the ghost prison! Some things are better left unsaid. Once you are connected, you can't get rid of it. This joking remark quickly fermented and changed, and finally formed a malicious nickname, which was given to Eighty-Seven Sons. Every time the descendants of Lord Dadongshan gathered for a banquet, there would always be some turtle sons and turtle grandsons who would use this nickname to make fun of the Eighty-Seventh Son. Poor Eighty-Seventh Son suffered misfortune before he was even reborn. He was born with congenital deficiencies and could not defeat any of his descendants. There is no other way except to swallow your anger. Mr. Qiu's voice brought Tao Tie back to his senses. "In this case, you should understand why a sixth-rank ghost cultivator could make the county magistrate and the city god unable to do anything to him for so many years." Tao Tie nodded and replied: "Because he has a powerful father who may feel guilty towards him!" Elder Qiu agreed with this, but the point he wanted to make was not this. He then asked, "Then do you know why Magistrate Miao and City God Ke, who have been patient for so long, dared to rectify the internal order of the City God of Liuxian County today? Why didn't Junshi and I stop you from killing Him?" "Students don't know." Tao Tie had some vague guesses in his mind, but they were too vague and he had little confidence, so he didn't dare to say anything and just replied like this. If you know it, you know it; if you don't know it, you don't know it. Qiu Lao said: "the reason is simple. The Lord of Mount Dadong is indeed very powerful, but the Celestial Empire does not allow such a powerful god to exist! We have tolerated Him for more than two hundred years, not because we have no way to deal with Him, but because the time is not ripe. Now that the great catastrophe is approaching, the Celestial Empire must launch external expeditions to proactively respond to the catastrophe. Naturally, it cannot continue to allow internal instability to occur. He had been given respect, but He Himself did not want respect. The Celestial Empire will help him save face! Just before tonight, the Celestial Empire did not send a large army, but only sent an angel with an order, and then sent the Lord of Mount Dadong to the capital in shackles overnight to await interrogation of his crimes! Do you know why it is so easy?" Tao Tie shook his head: "I don't know, please teach me, Master Qiu." Stroking his short beard, Mr. Qiu said seriously: "Because the descendants of the Lord of Mount Dadong, who were enfeoffed in various places in the three southwestern states, were driven by their own natures and, with the overt or covert connivance of the Heavenly Dynasty, they acted recklessly and committed many crimes. Tonight, all places will launch an action to detonate these sins. The Imperial Observatory also used the secret method of heaven to transfer all the backlash of these sins to the Lord of Mount Dadong, so that he could ruin his luck at any time. The Lord of Mount Dadong is a natural mountain god, favored by the destiny of heaven. If his destiny is ruined, one can imagine what will happen to him. So He had to surrender.” Tao Tie was shocked after hearing this.

I have a deeper understanding of why Mr. Qiu deliberately sent Instructor Huang away and said these words. This is a blatant reminder. Considering the fact that the Lord of Mount Dadong had already lost power, it didn't matter much whether Tao Tie killed the eighty-seven sons. But if some people with ulterior motives want to publicize this matter, we cannot agree to it. Even someone as powerful as the Lord of Mount Dadong could be controlled by the backlash of luck. As insignificant as Tao Tie is, he should be more careful and vigilant at all times and not become someone else's pawn without knowing why. You must not let yourself be sold out and then help them count money. In addition, the Lord of Mount Dadong was only sent to the capital for trial in shackles, not his mountain was cut down and his temple was destroyed. As long as you admit your guilt, mend your ways, and wholeheartedly support the Celestial Empire from now on without thinking of establishing your own territorial sovereignty, you will have a chance to rise again. And the opportunity is huge. Because the catastrophe is approaching, if the Celestial Empire wants to unite all the forces that can be united, why would it keep hiding the Lord of Mount Dadong who can cooperate with the Celestial Empire and tear the three southwestern states apart from the millions of mountains? "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Qiu!" Thinking of this, Tao Tie bowed deeply once again and expressed his sincere gratitude. "I understand. No need to thank me." Old Qiu waved his hands. Although he was quite pleased with Tao Tie's attitude, he didn't care much about it. He yawned suddenly and said, "When I get old, I'm not as energetic as you young people. I'm sleepy and I'm going to go back to sleep. You young people can make a fuss on your own." As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Qiu disappeared. Huang Jiao often uses the Tian Gang method "Golden Light on the Ground", which is fast but not without a trace. Mr. Qiu is accustomed to using the Tiangang method "Five Elements Escape", which is not only fast, but also elusive! Tao Tie expressed his envy as usual, but then he suppressed his thoughts and flashed back to the side hall. Cleaning up the battlefield is a fine tradition that cannot be abandoned. With [Clairvoyance] fully activated and five little ghosts helping him, Tao Tie conducted a thorough investigation of the side hall in just a few moments. Since Eighty-Seventh Son is so greedy for money, he must be quite wealthy. However, under the sword of pure yang vitality transformed from Tai Chi Yuan Qi, many good things of Yin and ghost attributes were either destroyed or broken. Apart from a palm-sized tortoise shell round shield, Tao Tie didn't find any other good things for his own use. Instead, after the self-explosion, five little ghosts, only the size of fingers, squatted in a corner of the side hall, drooling at a pool of dark and shiny liquid that looked like water and mercury. He kept conveying to Tao Tie thoughts like "hungry", "want to eat", "replenish the body", and "grow taller". To be honest, Tao Tie regretted that he impulsively merged the remnants of the greedy demon into the five little ghosts. Each of them is playful and greedy. Even the most stable "middle" ghost is no exception. Looking at the five little ghosts who were drooling at the pure yin ghost energy refined by the pure yang vitality, but dared not move their mouths without permission, Tao Tie sighed helplessly and expressed his consent with his mind.

The five little devils immediately cheered, then pounced on it and devoured it. Seeing this, Tao Tie felt like he was raising five sons. I thought about it again and immediately gave up the idea. Strictly speaking, the five little ghosts are Tao Tie's special clones. If we continue to think in this direction, won’t everything be messed up? Alas…… (End of this chapter)
