Chapter 454: Xuanming Patriarch
Chen Jiu had been busy for nearly two months, and everything in both the divine world and the mortal world was finally arranged.
At this time, a large number of demons in the God Realm were also catalyzed into gods by Xi Tianzun, and the demon gods that were catalyzed into gods in the first month were almost trained and could already set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Array.
He also has to go to the ghost realm. If he doesn't go, the ghost realm will be in chaos and it will be difficult to find the Soul Blood Stone.
Early in the morning of that day, he called upon Tianzun Xi, and brought twelve magic troop transport vehicles and more than twelve thousand demon gods, riding on a huge auspicious cloud and arriving above the square outside Qingmufang City.
Those gods who got up early and rushed to the market were almost scared to death. Seeing such a huge battle, they thought that the armies of Hongmeng Sect and Western Sect came to attack Qingmu Market.
However, when they saw that they were parked neatly above the square outside Qingmufang City and seemed to have no intention of taking action, they could not help but scan them with their spiritual sense.
When they took a look, they were stunned.
Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty!
Tianxuan Camp, Tianyou Camp, Tiansu Camp...!
This scene is so terrifying, this is the legendary Ninth Master!
To be honest, there are very few in the divine world who can pull off such a grand ceremony, and even fewer who have seen such a grand ceremony.
There are only so many forces in the divine world that can have tens of thousands of true gods, and there are probably only a few who can bring out tens of thousands of true gods at a time. Moreover, basically no one would travel with tens of thousands of true gods.
This Jiu Ye is indeed as powerful as the legendary bull, he can easily pull out tens of thousands of real people!
When Tiger Power Heavenly Venerable saw him coming with so many demon gods, he quickly jumped onto his palace-like carriage and said solemnly, "Master Jiu, are you going to the ghost realm?"
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "Yes, the longer the night, the more dreams there are. If we don't go to the ghost realm now, it will be troublesome if there is chaos. Master Tiger, please take me to see your master."
Huli Tianzun nodded slightly, then rode on a auspicious cloud and took Chen Jiu to the center of the city.
Naturally, Patriarch Qingmu had already swept his team away.
However, after he asked Chen Jiu to sit down, he still looked worried and said, "Ah Jiu, it may not be enough for you to bring such a small number of demon gods. Although the ghost domain does not have so many troops, you must be careful that the Hongmeng Sect and the Western Sect will get the news and it will be unfavorable to you. After all, the ghost domain is next to the Western Sect's territory."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Ancestor, don't worry. This is just the strength I have shown. There are still 120,000 demon gods in my kingdom of God. After all, this is my first time showing up in the God Realm. I can't appear too arrogant, and I don't want Hongmeng Sect and Western Sect to know how strong I am in the God Realm.
This is just a small ambush. If the Hongmeng Sect and the Western Sect don't come to provoke me, it will be fine. But if they dare to come, I will make sure they will be in big trouble."
So that's how it is.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Qingmu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, I feel relieved that you kept this secret. "
Chen Jiu thought about it, and then asked: "Ancestor, how do I get to this ghost realm? Who can I find when I go there?"
Patriarch Qingmu smiled slightly and said, "I can't explain this to you clearly. I'd better let Xiaoluli take you there. He knows the way. He also knows Patriarch Xuanming who is outside the ghost domain. You just need to follow him to find Patriarch Xuanming. Patriarch Xuanming is the ancestor with the best relationship with us in the ghost domain."
After that, she used her spiritual sense to move, and Lu Li Tianzun quickly flashed over and bowed, saying: "Master, Senior Brother, Ninth Master."
Patriarch Qingmu nodded slightly and ordered: "Xiao Luli, take Ah Jiu to Patriarch Xuanming's territory and help him collect some soul blood stones."
Lu Li Tianzun nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, Master."
It turns out that Patriarch Qingmu had already made arrangements.
Chen Jiu couldn't help but say gratefully: "Grandmaster, thank you very much. I'm really busy here. Otherwise, I will set off with Master Lu now."
Patriarch Qingmu nodded slightly and said, "Well, be careful along the way."
Chen Jiu bid farewell to Patriarch Qingmu, and Huli Tianzun sent him and Luli Tianzun to the outskirts of the market town, and they officially set off.
The distance is at least 40,000 miles. If we fly slowly on clouds and mist, it will probably take ten days. After Chen Jiu led most of the people to fly for a while, he couldn't help but ask: "Master Lu, in which direction is the ghost domain? Why don't you point it out to me? I will lead everyone to it and we will be there soon."
Lu Li Tianzun raised his hand and pointed to the northwest, explaining: "Master Jiu, the ghost domain is in this direction, but you can't dodge through it, because the sea area outside the ghost domain is more than ten thousand miles and it is all the Yin and Yang realm. The Yin and Yang energy there is extremely violent. You can't dodge through it, you can only fly through it."
Yin and Yang?
The Yin and Yang boundary here should not refer to the Yin and Yang boundary in the mortal world, but the area of violent airflow formed by the Yin and Yang Qi.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then his spiritual sense covered the entire team, and he said loudly: "You all collect the soul arts, and I will take you to the ghost realm."
This art of spirit and soul is a required skill for all soldiers in the war of gods, which is equivalent to an advanced version of the art of soul refining, that is, it is to prevent others from being recruited into the kingdom of gods. Generally, as long as the demon gods and true gods use the art of spirit and soul, the ancestors cannot recruit them. Otherwise, once the war starts, the ancestor of heaven will recruit all your subordinates, and you will have no chance to fight.
The soldiers of the Divine Realm Legion had all been trained, so they could naturally control the art of their spirits and souls with ease. With a command from Chen Jiu, all the soldiers and troop transports, including his own magic palace, and the two Tianzuns, Xi and Lu, were quickly taken into the Divine Kingdom.
Immediately afterwards, he flashed towards the direction pointed by Luli Tianzun.
Soon, he came to the edge of the Yin-Yang Realm in the sea area of the Divine Realm. This Yin-Yang Realm was indeed just like his Yin-Yang space. It was full of violent Yin-Yang energy, with howling winds, lightning and thunder. In addition, this Yin-Yang Realm was connected to the sea, and there was heavy rain inside, so nothing could be seen clearly.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu simply summoned Tianzun Ao and Tianzun Luli, then spread out his golden wings, turned into a height of more than ten feet, and turned into a comfortable seat on his back. Then he said in a loud voice: "Master Ao, Master Lu, sit on my back, I will take you to fly over."
Sitting on Jiu Ye's back doesn't mean you are treating Jiu Ye as a mount!
Upon hearing this, Luli Tianzun was stunned.
Tianzun Xi did not hesitate to get on Chen Jiu's back, sat down comfortably, and then waved, "Xiao Luli, come on up quickly. You don't know that Jiu Ye can fly very fast, even faster than Peng Ye. He can fly over ten thousand miles very quickly. If we want to fly together slowly, it will probably take us a long time."
Okay, Grandpa Ao will go first.
Upon hearing this, Luli Tianzun quickly flew onto Chen Jiu's back and sat comfortably like Xi Tianzun.
Chen Jiu directly transformed several iron hoops to hold them, and then laughed: "Be careful, I'm about to fly."
He hasn't tried speed racing for a long time, and he really wants to try it now.
There was no other way. He couldn't try it in the mortal world. Even when he was moving the kingdom of God, he didn't dare to fly at the maximum speed because the noise it would cause was too loud. Mortals and birds and beasts would be shocked to death wherever he flew over. He didn't dare to fly recklessly.
It's different here. In this Yin and Yang world on the sea, the Yin and Yang energy is so violent that there are definitely no monsters, let alone mortals. He is not afraid of making too much noise when he flies, because there are already lightning and thunder in there , and the sound is very loud.
He flew at such an extreme speed that he was just like a flash of lightning. The yin and yang energy in places he flew past were pierced by a sharp arrow, leaving a hole so large that one couldn't see the end of it.
Tianzun Xi and Tianzun Luli felt as if they were hit on the face by a huge rock. They saw stars and could not see anything.
Fortunately, they all have divine armor and inner armor, so they can be fine after covering their faces.
How fast is Chen Jiu speeding at this moment?
This is really hard to estimate. Anyway, in less than an hour, he crossed the Yin and Yang Realm of more than ten thousand miles and flew to a calm sea.
My god, this is too fast, the divine armor is smoking!
Lu Li Tianzun felt that Chen Jiu was slowing down, so he raised his hand and pointed to the north and said, "Master Jiu, if you fly over there for about a thousand miles, you will see a large island with a radius of about four or five thousand miles. The Xuanming Patriarch is on that island."
Okay, there is no need to rush at this time. Chen Jiu directly took Tianzun Xi and Tianzun Luli into the kingdom of God, and flashed to the edge of the big island.
He summoned out more than 12,000 demon gods from the 12 battalions, 12 troop transport vehicles, his own magic palace, and the Heavenly Lords of the Ape and Deer Power, and deployed them on the huge auspicious cloud. He then waved his hand and said loudly, "Let's go."
What exactly is the ghost realm like?
Chen Jiu expanded his spiritual sense and scanned the area over a hundred miles in radius, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
The yin energy here is even thicker than that in the underworld, and the ground is full of black mountains emitting yin energy. In many places, the thick yin energy has gathered into a pitch-black area. The ghost cultivators inside include both humans and demons, and each of them looks bloodless, as if they were dead, and not some floating ghosts.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master Lu, do most of the ghost cultivators here have physical bodies?"
Lu Li Tianzun shook his head slightly and said, "They don't have physical bodies. What you see are the flesh and blood bodies they have transformed using special techniques. It is just like adding a layer of protection to the soul."
Chen Jiu thought for a while and asked again: "This ghost realm doesn't seem that scary, the sky here is just a little gloomy, it doesn't seem to be as scary as the underworld."
Lu Li Tianzun explained, "This is just the outer perimeter of the ghost domain. Moreover, Xuan Ming Patriarch is the ghost domain ancestor who is closest to the human race and the demon race. He specially let his ghost cultivators practice this method of transforming into flesh and blood, so it doesn't look that scary. The deeper you go into the ghost domain, the scarier it becomes. I don't even dare to go to the center of the ghost domain."
This ancestor Xuanming also specifically asked his ghost cultivators to practice this method of transforming into flesh and blood bodies?
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but ponder it in secret.
The Hongmeng Sect and the Western Sect are planning to invite six or seven ancestors from the ghost realm, so he has to find a way to invite a few. In other words, he has to win over a few ancestors from the ghost realm. Otherwise, how can they, with only two ancestors, defeat the at least eight or nine ancestors on the other side?
It seems that this Xuanming Patriarch is not a vicious person. At least, we can tell from the ghost cultivators under his command. If he is a vicious person, he would not care about the feelings of humans and demons.
Perhaps he could win over the Xuanming Patriarch.
This was probably what Patriarch Qingmu meant when he asked him to recruit Patriarch Xuanming.
He was deep in thought when suddenly a hearty laugh came from the front: "Hahahaha, Xiao Luli, why are you here? Did you bring a distinguished guest to me?"
This voice, this tone, why doesn't it feel like a ghost?
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu looked up and saw a black mountain nearly a hundred miles long faintly appearing dozens of miles ahead. The black mountain was surrounded by thick yin energy as thick as ink. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see the black mountain in the middle. Even when your spiritual sense swept over, you could only see the yin energy, but not the black mountain.
Lu Li Tianzun hurriedly bowed and said, "Old Ancestor, my master ordered me to bring Jiuye, the Lord of Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty, here to buy some Soul Blood Stones from you."
The Xuanming Patriarch still said cheerfully: "Master Jiu's name is well-known. He is indeed a rare distinguished guest. Come on, please come in, please come in."
I can't just charge in with a large army.
Chen Jiu quickly raised his hand and said, "Everyone, rest on the spot."
After saying that, he took Ape Tianzun and Luli Tianzun and flew towards the huge black mountain.
Only when they flew into the thick black fog did they see a palace thousands of feet high in the Black Mountain. Although the palace was pitch black, its style was like that of human palaces and did not look scary.
What kind of person, or what kind of ghost, is this Xuanming Patriarch?
Chen Jiu had never seen such a cheerful ghost. Perhaps, this was the temperament of the Xuanming Patriarch before he became a ghost.
He was really curious about what such a cheerful ghost cultivator looked like.
