Code 625
took one last look at Old Mrs. Shen before leaving the room.Before we left, Old Madam Shen's assistant, a Kun Dao surnamed Qi, handed me a file bag. "This is the recent commission. Originally, Old Ma...The Taiji diagram of Yin and Yang appeared three thousand years ago. Even Jiang Qiyun, who had lived for centuries, had never seen this treasure. Legend has it that when the diagram is unfurled, it can merge with mountains, rivers, and all things.
Those who enter this place will feel a profound sense of unease and inexplicable anxiety. If you dwell on negative thoughts, they will manifest before your eyes. The more fear you harbor, the faster your demise.
Even if one can calm the mind and be free from demonic disturbances, after seven hours, the heavenly fire will still fall, incinerating all external things. Then, the entire picture will remain in the cycle of Yin-Yang chaos until it reaches the state of two phases being distinct.
Old Wang Ye used two layers of magic. The first layer was the fusion of the small courtyard and the long street, and the second layer was the fusion of the long street and the Taiji diagram. Jiang Qiyun destroyed the magic of the small courtyard, but the entire hutong could not escape unscathed.
“This picture depicts a treasure of the immortals. It’s not surprising that some immortal stole it... Even the Great Venerable Jade Pure cannot watch over all these treasures.” The little boy brought a plate of candies to the shrine and offered some to himself.
Ji Dou Xingjun was far from so calm. He was inherently rebellious and proud, and being disturbed in his peace for no reason at all made him furious.
"If you ask me, just bring that little demon out and kill it! Then grab that old bastard and drag him to hell for punishment! Finally, let him vanish into ashes!" he said furiously.
“How do you catch it” the little boy asked, chewing on his candy.
""
Yes, how do we catch it The demon is hiding in another dimension. It just couldn't ambush Keiji and immediately retreated back.
Huh
A light bulb went off in my mind.
"Lord Ji Dou Xing Jun, since they summoned you to the mortal realm, it must be because they need something from you. And with this lunar eclipse happening, your power is at its peak. They will definitely find a way to scheme against you… What if you become bait" I looked at Lord Ji Dou Xing Jun.
"Mu Xiaqiao! You're too bold! To dare use me, the Star Lord, as bait! Who gave you the courage!"
He jumped up and yelled at me, making me flinch.
The little boy pointed outside the courtyard: "Of course, it was given to you by Lord Di Jun. If you can't beat Lord Di Jun, it's best to be polite to the young mistress..."
I am hung between Guī in front and Yōu Nán behind, so much that I can hardly breathe.
At this moment, he let out a shout, startling Yu Gui once again. The little ancestor's lips trembled slightly, his face contorted into an expression of impending tears.
The little boy gleefully said to the Star Master, "Star Master, look at how you scared the little fairy. She's going to cry later, and then the Emperor will scold you again."
No one in the fight could match Jiang Qiyun's skill. Even if Luohu and him teamed up, they still wouldn't be able to defeat Jiang Qiyun.
After all, Jiang Qiyun was entrusted by the Purple Emperor to oversee the Underworld. He must be one of the most trusted people by the Purple Emperor, otherwise, how could he be given such an important divine position
Moreover, now to leave from here, one still has to rely on Jiang Qiyun's boundless supernatural powers.
So, no matter how much they resented him, they didn't want to fight Jiang Qiyun at this crucial moment—time was slipping away bit by bit. It would be foolish to waste it on a brawl.
I clapped Yu Gui on the shoulder and said seriously to Ji Dou, "Only you, me, and these two children can be bait. However, these two little ones can't walk or talk yet, so how can they be bait I can't even run with two babies on my back, it wouldn't be suitable... Thinking about it this way, only Ji Dou Xingjun, who can both fight and run, is the most suitable!"
"Who are we going to tempt" Ji Du frowned.
"That little demon, since it wanted to sneak attack you, it probably wanted to devour your anger."
How to swallow
“I’ve seen the little demon’s eyes and the black smoke spilling from its mouth. Then, the surrounding ghosts became as ferocious as hell spirits. This is when it’s absorbing the life force of the living… You are a celestial deity, perhaps once its consumed your life energy, the little demon's power will surge.”
Ji Dou's eyebrows jumped slightly, and he cursed, "Disgusting!"
The little boy pouted and said, "The Emperor has been fighting these disgusting things for two thousand years! Sometimes demons want to reach out and touch the underworld! They've all been cleaned up by the Emperor. Unlike you! You just know how to retreat—fight—retreat—fight again!"
"You're just a little child of the Great God Taiyi, of course you would speak up for him! This Star Sovereign is very busy too, you know!"
Only a fool would believe he was busy. He was clearly bored and about to go to sleep, but then he was summoned by demons... He didn't even bother to comb his hair!
I took off the headband I was wearing and said, "Here you go. You don't want your hair getting in the way if we start fighting."
"I don't want that! What a hideous thing!" he glared at the little starfish on his social media feed.
What's the matter These deities are being too fussy! A little decoration won't hurt, right Besides, this is a fight, what's with all the showing off Just tie your long hair up so it doesn't get in the way.
Their thinking is very archaic. Ancient people placed great importance on the etiquette of tying up one's hair, to such a degree that it's hard for modern people to imagine.
Before, I didn't understand. Ever since the Celestial Emperor's pitch-black hair, like silk threads, frequently tangled with mine, I discovered... well... his hair care is way better than mine.
Crowns, caps, and sashes, along with hairpins or headbands, are used to style men's hair meticulously.
So, whether it's Jiang Qiyun or Ji Du, they both look down on me for simply tying up my hair with a random small hairpin.
We try to stay "calm" here because we understand that panicking or deliberately provoking our inner demons is not helpful.
Jiang Qiyun's calmness was genuine. He stood with his hands behind his back, calculating the timing and position in the courtyard before discussing countermeasures with Quan Heng. Finally, he turned and walked inside.
We all unconsciously left a seat open for him. He sauntered over, sat down, and gave me a glance: “Isn’t it tiring to carry two on your back”
"...Tired, but it's peaceful." I replied.
“Don't worry, Old Wang Ye since he has torn his face, he will definitely do everything to achieve his goal. Taking advantage of the frequent lunar eclipses, he will lower all plans, there must be his intention, and he will surely appear again.” Jiang Qiyun said lightly.
"What do you mean! Am I bait!" Ji Tian couldn't take it anymore, we were both hitting him.
He was about to lose his temper.
"Summoning the celestial master to the mortal realm is nothing but a way to maximize borrowing the Qi of Taiyin! Otherwise, how could an old man with hundreds of years of Taoist practice possibly use the Taiji Diagram!" Ji Du said.
Jiang Qiyun shook his head: "It's been more than just a few hundred years... That little demon hoarded too much life energy, perhaps it was used by the old king for cultivating evil sorcery. Their hidden space is full of unknowns, we can't be careless."
"What do we do now Even if we're going to use bait, we need a plan, right" Ji pressed impatiently.
"What are we going to do Just wait." Jiang Qiyun said nonchalantly.
He reached out and grasped my hand, lowering his head to look at the blood jade ring on my finger.
The spiritual fetus's innate qi needs seven days to form.
Following the experience last time, on the third day, blood clots began to congeal. On the fifth day, blood clots began to form into a dragon shape. By the seventh day, they were completely formed and the ring became warm and bright, marking the successful birth of the spirit fetus.
However, now...
The newly formed blood clot, due to an interrupted night of harmonious Qi flow...
And then it dispersed."Hmph, this kind of thing I could shatter with a single sword strike!" Ji Du muttered to himself.I rolled my eyes. “Are you crazy! How can you hold a baby and watch the computer! What if it hurts thei...
