Chapter 8: The Wooden Ogre
A palm chopped the air, and the blood energy shot out more than ten feet away, chopping onto the back of that vengeful spirit. It only had time to let out a mournful cry before dispersing directly.
This scene frightened the other vengeful spirits even more, and they scattered in all directions, no longer daring to linger for a moment.
These things were originally soft and afraid of hard ones!
Liu Yi slowly walked back to the temple gate and returned to the statue. There, he had just fainted on the ground, his face pale, having exhausted a great deal of yang energy and blood energy.
Liu Yi was almost the same, and today's accumulated divine power had also been consumed. Even this newly born Dao field had a tendency to virtualize for a while.
After a long time, he stood up with a wry smile: "Thank you for the blessing of heaven that saved my life!"
Although the cost was enormous, I finally managed to save a life. This lifesaving grace is absolutely genuine!
Liu Yi didn't have the mood to respond at this time. Ren Na was walking softly into the village.
Luckily, just as he had walked less than half the way, some villagers carrying torches came looking for him. It turned out that the village head had not returned to the village and people were worried, so five or six young men holding torches came searching for him.
Although there are still some dangers, when five or six sturdy young men gather together with abundant yang energy, ordinary ghosts and monsters do not dare to provoke them.
"Dad! What's wrong?" Zhao Hu, Lǐ Zhèng's son, asked cautiously.
Li Zheng's face turned stern and he shouted: "What are you doing here? This is outrageous!"
Zhao Hu was only a few years older, but he looked like he was in his teens. At this moment, he was scolded by his father and immediately shrunk back, not daring to say another word.
Another one called Han Bin, however, was the leader among young people and smiled: "Uncle Zhao, Xiao Hu is also worried about you. That's why he asked us to come along!"
Only then did he stop talking. His own child is filial, and as parents, they are naturally overjoyed. The scolding just now was out of concern.
Several young people were quite excited: "Uncle Zhao, the mountain god is really great. In my lifetime, I have never eaten anything so delicious... it's just a bit too little, not enough to eat!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! That's the food of the gods, and if a mortal like you can have it once in your lifetime, it's because of the accumulated virtues of your ancestors and the kindness of the gods. How dare you complain that you're not full?"
Li Zheng scolded a few young people, but in his heart he understood. Even if it were a divine spirit, it couldn't conjure up something out of thin air.
Or perhaps with divine power, they could dig up buried gold, silver and jewels from the ground. But it's impossible to conjure up this delicious food out of thin air; it must have been obtained with great difficulty and is not easily come by.
No matter how broad-minded and knowledgeable Rao Zhi was, he would never have imagined that there was a huge supermarket next to Liu Yi.
"Uncle Zhao said that we have nothing to complain about. It's just a pity that we won't be able to eat such good food in the future!" Han Bin said with a smile.
Li Zheng's face showed a hint of a smile: "I was thinking, why don't we invite this spirit back to be our village's tutelary deity?"
Several young people hesitated and said: "Our village is so small, can we afford to support a temple?"
This is no small matter, it concerns the lives and property of all villagers, so we can't help but be cautious.
As they spoke, they walked down the mountain. The moon was bright and the wind was clear, the pine smoke whistled.
"Tai Xiao Yang Tian Fu Zhao!" Liu Yi had just sensed the name of the summon in his sea of consciousness, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Vaguely came into contact with some information, which summons a total of nine layers. This is the lowest level of summoning for myself.
Moreover, this summoning power has not even been formally touched by himself. It is necessary to wait until he ascends to the divine spirit before this summoning power can truly come into play.
The remaining fragrance of the incense, all summoned and refined, transformed into a few drops of white divine power. After counting, there were only three drops left.
This bit of divine power can sustain him for three days, and also allow him to use Dreamwalker-like spells up to three times.
However, Liu Yi did not have too much worry. He was very clear in his heart that most of the villagers behind the mountain had already been subdued by him. In the future, there would be no shortage of incense and fire!
What worried him was that a lot of money had been spent, and now only over 700 yuan was left. If all the money was spent, wouldn't he be unable to show any miraculous powers? Could he still make people believe in and worship him?
Whether it's divination, dream entry, or spirit communication, they are all too low-level spells. Moreover, there are various restrictions.
For example, the Dream Entry Technique cannot be too far away from the person being entered, and it is not possible to exceed two miles. The consumption of Tong Ling Technique is too terrifying, and with his current wealth, he can hardly play with it.
The most practical thing is actually fortune-telling. If you're a person, then with this one skill, you can go and tell people's fortunes and it would be believable.
But I can barely be considered a ghost or god, and in this desolate mountain wilderness, this aura-reading technique is of little use!
Liu Yi suddenly thought of something with a bit of distress, "Ah, this person can see the aura. I wonder if other things can also be seen through aura?"
As soon as they came out of the temple, those wild ghosts had all been scared away. For a while, there was no need to worry about any more life-threatening dangers.
A bit of spiritual power was burned, and Liu Yi immediately used the Wandering Air Technique. He saw that the mountain's momentum was vast, and a stream of clear air rushed out straight away. He also saw a yellow airflow under the ground, like a river flowing and winding, as if it were moving.
The divine power burned out, and Liu Yi revealed a strange expression. No wonder this place is called Fenglai Mountain, but the village below is called Lai Fengli.
The real name of this mountain is certainly Lai Feng Shan, rather than Feng Lai Shan. The mistake in this character changes the meaning greatly.
They say that when the phoenix comes, it's a sign of good fortune. It's also said that the phoenix only lands in places with treasures. The feng shui of this mountain is excellent! More importantly, this mountain benefits the yin, and without saying more, this place will naturally produce beautiful women.
The winding yellow stream below is the earth's vein, surrounding this mountain and nourishing its terrain. It's indeed a great place, and I unintentionally ended up in such a wonderful location.
Liu Yi felt a sense of ease and joy in his heart, with a thick layer of mist surrounding his body, as if he was wearing a thick layer of clothing that the night wind couldn't penetrate. The rustling sound of the pine trees around him also became less frightening.
The mottled moon fell from the gap in the trees, and it had an inexplicable quiet beauty.
Liu Yi soon arrived under a large pine tree with a rather strange shape, and a boulder the size of a human head made Liu Yi helpless, unable to move it no matter what.
Just as Liu Yi was thinking of trying to spend a bit more spiritual energy to see if he could move the stone, there was a commotion nearby. A strange and peculiar-looking wooden ghost, resembling a withered tree, peeked out curiously.
Although this thing looks ugly, it has a small abdomen. The most important thing is that the strength is big enough. Liu Yi shouted: "You come over and help me move this stone!"
Mù heard and indeed listened obediently, came over to help move away the stone. Underneath was a bundle wrapped in oilcloth.
