Chapter 31: The world of death
The Sanyang Temple was built on the top of the mountain and was now completely covered by thick gray fog. The thick fog wrapped it tightly. Here, the thick fog was already at its peak.
The Taoist palaces and pavilions that were faintly revealed in the fog were now looking at them from a distance, as if they were in a fairyland.
However, from the perspective of the sky, what is most noticeable is not the so-called Sanyang Temple, but a big black tree that appears like a shadow on the cliff and in the thick fog.
It was a big tree without any leaves. The main trunk was surprisingly thick, with dense roots entangled on the earth, covering the entire ground. The tree was dozens of meters tall, and the branches on it were like ghost hands growing one by one. Countless vines grew out of this ghost hand, just like whip held by the evil ghost in hell.
Although the Sanyang Temple has a long history, it is not a major Taoist faction. It only has some fame in the local area, but its incense is quite good.
There are only a dozen Taoist priests in the Taoist temple. Among them, except for Guanzhu and two disciples, most of them are professional Taoist priests, and the rest are temporary workers.
Taoists were wearing dark blue Taoist robes, straight collars, big lapels, right lapels, large sleeves, white collars, white collars, Taoist turbans, and shoes. They looked less handsome than Fang Xiu, but they were much more formal and had the true ancient charm.
At this moment, all the Taoist priests of Sanyang Temple surrounded the huge black monster tree and were dancing some strange dances wildly, using hands and feet together, looking like they were crazy, and kept talking strange language as if they had lost their minds.
The language seemed to be not spoken by human throats. At this moment, it was spit out from their mouths, and it felt like the sound of swords rubbing against their throats, full of a sensational smell.
"The great Lord of Death, the home of all things, the controller of all life!"
"Great Lord of Death..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"I pray to you, I pray to you..."
Everyone's eyes were deep and black, and several of them had foamed at their mouths and their eyes were turned white, but they were still immersed in their own pleasure and madness.
They seemed to be holding some kind of crazy ritual, summoning the existence of another world.
The strange black tree is dozens of meters tall, and the huge tree body looks like the shadow of a devil, the branches are like the claws of the undead that are protruded out of hell, and countless vines dance like tentacles.
And you can see that it is growing wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Everything here is filled with a strange smell. The air is filled with the terrifying sound of evil spirits and wailing souls, just like thousands of people screaming in your ears.
In the earth, even ordinary people can see a thick ball of undispersed black gradually eroding the earth and spreading towards the surroundings. This terrifying scene is enough to completely let the person who sees this scene fall into madness.
At this time, a ray of light fell from the sky and descended on the top of the mountain. It was a figure wearing a moon-white Taoist robe. The Taoist robe and silver-white long hair were windless. The white light flowed down from him and dragged out a long shadow, just like the white flames behind him were burning.
The light spread out from his body, dispersing the thick gray fog on the top of the mountain, clearing out a large open space like an impact aura, and sweeping over the dozen Taoist priests in at the same time.
The black monster and weirdness that were wrapped around them were dispersed at the same time. Five of the dozen Taoist priests fainted at the same time, and the remaining few were then separated from the crazy ritual that was controlled.
The remaining nearly ten Taoist priests woke up in an instant, and at this moment they fell to the ground one by one, their eyes gradually returning to clearness.
"How do we be on the top of the mountain?"
"What's going on? What's this?" An old Taoist priest who looked in his fifties and with a Taoist crown stood up with the help of his apprentice who was attentive. Then, as soon as he got up, he was frightened by the scene in front of him.
"Ah! Monster! Monster!" Several Taoist priests were so scared that they ran away, not caring about the sleeping brothers beside them.
"Monster! Escape! Escape!"
As soon as everyone broke away from control, they were frightened by the scene in front of them, and they rolled and crawled up from the ground, as if they had seen hell, and ran towards the bottom of the mountain without looking back.
A Taoist priest who had just woken up looked forward in a daze and was at a loss, and saw a scene that made his legs weak. A tall and stout strange tree spread out countless vines, towards the black strange tree surrounded them, hundreds of thousands of meters of vines covering the sky and surrounding them.
He suddenly fell to the ground in fear again. As he shivered, water oozing out of his crotch, and a smell of smell came from him.
At the same time, they also noticed a Taoist standing under the tree. They could not see his front, but could only see his back.
The back didn't look tall, but it stood proudly on the top of the mountain like a long sword. Facing the black demon tree that was dozens of meters tall and waving countless vines covering the sky, she was still unmoved.
The Taoist in white turned around and swept across his long sleeves. He saw a white light sweeping towards them, immediately sweeping over a dozen people on the top of the mountain off the top of the mountain. The force wrapped them and fell lightly onto the hillside hundreds of meters below.
At the same time, thousands of vines wrapped the white-clothed Taoist, and dense vines tangled into a huge sphere, constantly wriggling. The strange vines looked like flesh and blood, and looked like a huge sarcoma.
"Buzz!"
But as a sword light penetrated from the vines, the light that soared into the sky instantly exploded, illuminating the hilltops with a silvery white patch.
"Boom!"
Then, he saw the Taoist leaping hundreds of meters, guiding a thunder from the sky, directly bombarding the mountain, blowing the mountain upright.
At this moment, the ten still awake Taoist priests on the hillside at the foot of the mountain were all stunned and looked at the top of the mountain. This shocking scene could not be so real even if the movie special effects were used.
They were still running away and scared to death, and they were still crawling into the ground, and suddenly became quiet.
But after less than a second of quiet, everyone was dancing excitedly as if their hearts exploded, pointing to the mountain, and their faces turned red because of the surging blood.
"Master, the Madam has appeared!" The old Taoist with the Taoist crown trembled excitedly, and suddenly fell to his head and kowtowed to the ground. Then he raised his head and looked at the Taoist in white on the top of the mountain, with tears in his eyes.
"There are really immortals! This is an immortal!" Although a professional Taoist priest in his thirties had barely memorized a lot of Taoist scriptures on weekdays, he definitely did not believe in any immortals and gods. At this moment, he really believed it.
A group of temporary Taoist priests who were working fell to the ground together, with a longing look in their eyes: "So, there are really gods?"
"The gods also exist, so? Can you really practice it?"
"I'll go! This is our ancestor. So is the way of practice hidden in the scriptures in our contemplation true?"
"I am a temporary worker? Can I become a regular?" A young Taoist priest with a hat falling off, rubbed the soil on his face, and suddenly felt that being a Taoist priest was a good choice.
All the Taoist priests of Sanyang Temple were shocked at this moment and various thoughts emerged.
At this time, it was already dark. The park surrounded a large number of people and early-wake nearby residents. Even newspapers and radio reporters from Weigang City arrived here, and more police and fire trucks also came to the entrances of various roads of Huangyang Mountain.
But before they could set up their formation, a fierce movement came from the top of the mountain. The thick fog that had originally covered the entire mountain was dispersed in an instant. Then a ray of light rose into the sky, and the explosion sound seemed to be transmitted to everyone's ears with a buzzing sound.
Everyone looked up at the top of the mountain at a loss, and immediately saw the thick fog dissipate, revealing the pavilions and towers on the top of the mountain and the huge strange trees dozens of meters high.
But what attracted them even more at this moment was that the black monster tree was waving countless vines and spreading towards the sky, and their target was a white figure in the sky that could not be seen clearly.
"Monster! There are monsters!" A child sitting on his father's neck kept shouting excitedly.
"Monster! No, there is also someone in the sky and there is another person!" A reporter who was moving equipment from the car immediately picked up the camera.
"Who is a god!"
"I said something wrong with this fog, it's a monster!" The old man who was watching the whole incident nearby yesterday kept clapping his hands and telling the people who had just arrived around him.
"Immortal! The god who entered the mountain before!" The family members of the missing person who saw Fang Xiujin Mountain before, pointed at the figure of the Taoist in white and kept shouting.
As the figure of the white-clothed Taoist jumped up and rushed into the sky, guiding a lightning to bombard the mountain from the sky, blowing the mountain upwards, and the whole scene became uncontrollable.
"Tree Demon? Shenxiao Thunder Method? Five Thunder Method?" An otaku with glasses held up his cell phone and was stunned at this moment. Even the phone fell to the ground without even notice.
Thousands of people at the foot of the mountain saw this scene, which was different from the blurry scene in the darkness of the hotel extinguishing fires. It was already dawn, and everyone and the camera could clearly see Fang Xiu's figure.
But Fang Xiu was in a fierce battle with the Elamamn Tree at this moment, and he was completely unconscious of what the people below thought.
At this moment, Fang Xiu merged the Ring of the Saint in his soul form, fully exerted all the power of the Saint's posture, and exploded the body of the Elamun Tree. This extraordinary props given by the time and space dominator from another time and space. When the power is fully exerted, it is even more terrifying, such as Xiu's imagination.
However, after Fang Xiu destroyed the Elamamn Tree, he found that it was not immediately destroyed. It continued to grow out of the wreckage and quickly reborn. In the blink of an eye, it grew halfway and was about to return to its complete form in an instant.
Fang Xiu immediately noticed the ink black in the earth. In the posture of a saint, he immediately saw the scene in the black.
It was a black door. In the door, all the peaks, earth, and lakes covered by thick fog were reflected, just like projections of the real world.
It was a completely illusory world, a illusory soul world that evolved from Gaia's consciousness, occupied by thick fog in the tree of Elamun.
Fang Xiu could see that under the Elamam tree on the surface, an Elamam tree that seemed to be a reflection of the water also grew in that illusory world.
"This is its essence!"
Fang Xiu suddenly realized that his whole person fell from the sky and turned into a white light, passing through the distance between the sky and the earth like lightning.
