Episode 107: The Visitor from Dragon Tiger Mountain

  "Boundless Heaven Venerable, this gentleman is joking, I am not young anymore." Before the voice had fallen, two figures had already appeared in front of them. They were an old and a young Daoist. The older one had white hair but looked youthful, with a smile on his face, exuding a refined and elegant demeanor. Unfortunately, the young Daoist beside him had a cold expression, with a hint of arrogance and cruelty beneath.

  Li Yan and Kuang Tianyou exchanged a glance, then smiled calmly: "Little Taoist, I see your age, this year you are at most 83 years old, which is not very big. Tonight's excitement, although stimulating, is not something you have the qualifications to participate in. I advise you to go back where you came from."

  Tian Yu's body as a zombie, for the people in the Taoist school, naturally has a few points of natural resistance. He immediately continued to speak: "Mr. Hai, it's getting late, let's hurry up and solve the Chongtian Sha Qi on the Golden Bull God statue. Tonight is special, we must resolve the matter before midnight, before the Sha Qi reaches its peak."

  Upon hearing this, the old Taoist couldn't help but be shocked and looked at the two people in front of him with extreme astonishment. In his heart, he secretly sighed: "Where did these two come from? With my nearly eighty years of bitter cultivation, I actually can't see through them at all. Could it be that they are both deeply hidden and unrevealed senior masters?"

  However, although the old Taoist showed a very high and mighty demeanor, the young man beside him was far from it. His cultivation was already rare among his peers, but for the few people present, he seemed too low to be seen as a threat by Li Yan and Kuang Tianyou. As soon as he heard their words, he let out a cold snort: "What are you guys, daring to be so rude to my Shifu?! My Shifu has come tonight to specially dispel this surge of evil energy, doing a great deed for the people, and you still don't hurry up and apologize!"

  Upon hearing this, Li Yan, Kuang Tianyou, Hai Ruitian and the old Taoist were all stunned for a moment. The old Taoist's face turned red with embarrassment as he quickly bowed his hands and said: "I apologize, please don't mind, this is my junior fellow apprentice Fang Lin, who has been spoiled by my senior brother Zhang Zhenyi since childhood in Mount Longhu, and doesn't know the height of the sky or the thickness of the earth. Please forgive him, esteemed sirs."

  This old man was not that ignorant and arrogant disciple Fang Lin, Hai Ruten was just an ordinary person, which is beyond doubt. However, Li Yan and Kuang Tianyou were clearly different, although he couldn't see the depth of their cultivation, he could vaguely feel that the aura on these two people was hidden and very dangerous, not something he could afford to provoke. So, after coming back to his senses, he hastily made a bow and apologized, even though his facial expression was pretending to be calm, but still couldn't conceal the fear in his eyes.

  "Master, why do you want to apologize to them? Our Dragon and Tiger Mountain is a renowned sect in the Eastern cultivation world. These two people from Mount Tai and the Big Dipper actually dare to be rude to you, Master. They must be those evil demons and heretics of legend, whose evil energy is rising to the heavens. You absolutely cannot let these two guys deceive your heart, or else once their evil energy spreads outwards, it will harm innocent people and we won't be able to stop it. That would make us sinners for all eternity."

  When he heard his own Shibo, he was uneasy and carefully apologized to Li Yan and Kuang Tianyou. The young man named Fang Lin couldn't help but burst out laughing. His Shibo kept giving him a signal with his eyes, directly putting the hat of "evil demon" on Li Yan and Kuang Tianyou's heads, really good at talking.

  "Haha" Li Yan heard this, couldn't help but laugh extremely, in the blink of an eye, as if there was a formless and intangible square-round world constantly rotating in his pupils. "I thought you two were from somewhere else, but it turns out you're high-ranking Taoist priests from Dragon Tiger Mountain. But do you know where this Heaven-Defying Aura comes from?"

  The old Taoist and Fang Lin were taken aback, and Li Yan immediately followed up with a smile: "Forget it, I'll be kind enough to tell you that this evil energy comes from a statue of the zodiac god that has been cultivated into a divine bull. You actually dared to suppress the divine spirit on Mount Longhu, which is indeed the orthodox Daoist sect!"

  To be honest, Li Yan had no good feelings towards those with the surname 'Fang', especially after hearing Fang Lin's words. However, although he disliked him, he was confident in his own status and didn't bother to argue with someone who hadn't even reached the Yang Shen realm over a trivial matter. Every sentence that came out of his mouth was a piercing remark, and he also brought up the flag of the Orthodox Dao Sect and the gods in heaven.

  The divine spirits gather the worship of all spirits and are born, perhaps not all of them are powerful existences, however, they exist in the hearts of people, entwining cause and effect, fortune and disaster. Therefore, any cultivator, unless he is a truly top-notch master, no one dares to easily offend the divine spirits, otherwise, the consequences will befall him, and at any time, there may be bad luck, death and destruction.

  Longhushan, although it is the orthodox Taoist sect, also does not dare to truly provoke a conflict with the gods and spirits. Because, since the disappearance of the Heavenly Court hundreds of years ago, there are not many gods and spirits left in this world. But precisely because of this, the karma involved with these gods and spirits is even greater, and they are really not good objects to provoke.

  "You wicked and heretical outsider, how dare you utter such nonsense and slander the righteous path of Dragon Tiger Mountain! Today, I must give you a taste of your own medicine!" Fang Lin had not expected Li Yan's verbal attack to be so much stronger than his own. However, he also knew that if he dared to respond with even one word, endless troubles would immediately descend upon him. As the master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, he naturally didn't worry about any major mishaps occurring, but for himself to make progress in his cultivation and achieve success in the future, it would be extremely difficult. At this moment, he could no longer contain the anger in his heart, and with a flick of his wrist, several fire talismans shot out, transforming into a ferocious fire snake that charged straight at Li Yan.

  "What?! Mr. Li, be careful!" Although Hai Ruten had some knowledge of the cultivation world, he really only knew a little about it. He had never seen such a powerful move before, and now he hastily shouted in surprise, his legs trembling beneath him, his face deathly pale.

  In fact, even Li Yan himself did not expect that this ignorant and arrogant guy would dare to fight him. He couldn't help but smile slyly and said calmly, "Don't worry, just stand aside for now, I'll deal with the current situation first, and then we'll handle the Golden Bull God statue later."

  Next to him, Kuang Tianyou also couldn't help but reveal an unbelievable expression. Although he wasn't from the cultivation world, as a second-generation zombie of the Pangu tribe, he could also tell that Li Yan's strength was formidable, even compared to the Zombie King who had bitten him. As for Fang Lin in front of them, his cultivation was still shallow, and even compared to himself, who hadn't sucked human blood for years, he was far inferior, let alone Li Yan?

  That old Taoist priest did not expect that his own disciple would suddenly make such a move, and seeing Fang Lin wave his hand to cast the secret fire talisman of Mount Longhu towards Li Yan, he couldn't help but change color in shock, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, and hastily shouted: "Stop!" Unfortunately, by the time he came back to himself, it was already somewhat too late.

  "You think this little trick is worthy of being shown off?" Seeing the ferocious fire snake pouncing towards him, Li Yan couldn't help but let out a cold smile. With a swift motion, he reached out with his hand and grasped at the air, somehow managing to grab hold of the fire snake's weak point from afar. The massive fire snake exploded in an instant, dispersing into nothingness.

  "How is this possible?" There had been several times when he had used the Fire Talisman to defeat his enemies, and it had never failed him before. Fang Lin couldn't believe that his supposedly unbeatable secret technique was useless against Li Yan, and this realization left him stunned, his face changing color in an instant.

  Bring out the old bottom, and this Fang Lin is only the cultivation of the peak of the Yin God. Compared to ordinary people, although it has already become a god-like figure, but in front of Li Yan, this strength is still somewhat too weak. This fire talisman is a secret technique of Mount Longhu, and its power depends on the depth of one's cultivation. If it were a scattered immortal who used it, Li Yan might need to take it seriously, but since it was Fang Lin who used it, it was really not worth mentioning to Li Yan.

  "I must say, you young whippersnapper, dare to lay hands on me? Even if you're from Dragon and Tiger Mountain, I'll still have to teach you a lesson!" Li Yan's voice was cold as he hummed, and with a flip of his hand, a massive, invisible force burst forth like a raging tide.

  Bang!

  Almost without any hindrance, a dull thud was heard, and Fang Lin's body shook violently, his entire person flying backward and falling heavily more than ten meters away. As soon as he opened his mouth, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his face turned deathly pale in an instant. It seemed that he had already suffered severe injuries.

  Although Fang Lin was not one, after all, he was his own junior, and the old Taoist next to him saw the situation and hastily exclaimed: "Junior!"

  He snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to be serious with a junior like him. This is just a small lesson for him."

  This is not to say that Li Yan was soft-hearted at this time, but rather, although Fang Lin was a bit arrogant, he had the entire Dragon and Tiger Mountain backing him up. With great power comes great caution, and it's really not good to provoke them carelessly. If it were his own life on the line, Li Yan wouldn't mind razing Dragon and Tiger Mountain to the ground, but for now, it was better to keep things stable.

  Moreover, his main purpose for coming here was to take away the Golden Bull statue, as for other things, he didn't think too much about making a fuss.
