Chapter 668 25: One Stick of Incense in the Mortal World (1)
But at that time, he hesitated to stop, his mind was not keen.
Just the Underworld.
Why be afraid of it!
If truly provoked, he could upend this world's Root Law, directly engraving it into another world's capability, even if the heavens and earth change, nothing can stop the true Great Freedom Celestial Demon Lord from overthrowing the entire Nine Netherworld's mansion.
However, unless absolutely necessary, it shouldn't be done.
The mutation of Root Law would generate a colossal chain reaction.
At this moment, the bull-headed deity's expression seemed doubtful, hesitant to fight head-on without certainty of victory, yet reluctant to return empty-handed and feeling unsatisfied.
Yin Gods enjoy the incense of divine positions and naturally must be constrained by those positions.
Though it possesses Soul Detention Order and Soul Capturing Rope and other magical artifacts, they cannot be used carelessly. Moreover, encountering a person with focused spirit and vitality, these soul capturers may not necessarily extract the opponent's three souls and seven spirits.
If it were in the Western world of evolution, it would be Soul Capturing Technique plus Soul Confining Technique, and the Legendary Powerhouse could easily exempt themselves.
A mortal's soul, naturally easy to capture with precision.
If they could capture Celestial Master Zhang Daoling's soul, getting close to Zhang Daoling himself would mark them as top Yin Gods in the world.
High-ranking Buddhists and Taoists who transcend in meditation are courteously invited by soul capturers to Ghost Gate.
Some do not even enter the Six Realms of Reincarnation.
Just when the bull-headed deity was in a dilemma, a tiger's roar suddenly echoed across the mountains.
"Come if you wish, leave if you dare?"
A towering figure like a mountain emerged from the distant hills, leaping hundreds of meters in a single bound, seemingly shrinking the earth with each step, swiftly appearing outside the City God Temple.
Lu Shanjun's tiger eyes glowed with fierce energy, carrying a strange human head at his waist, as he fiercely stared at the bull-headed deity ahead, coldly stating, "A brother of mine walks righteous paths, slaying evil spirits?"
"How come you injured him instead?"
A green mark appeared in the projection page of Dimension Space, covering a distance of more than a dozen miles in the blink of an eye, swiftly arriving like riding the wind.
Cloud follows dragon, wind follows tiger.
Lu Shanjun's agility greatly improved, seeming more like a developed divine power rather than Jianghu martial arts.
Mountain Monarch.
Servant Ghost.
The bull-headed deity's face slightly changed, seemingly recognizing Lu Shanjun, it gripped the steel fork in hand, its wide staring bull-eyes meeting those surrounded by bloody menace.
Serving the Tiger.
Lu Shanjun has his Secret Technique to transform people into Servant Ghosts, and these ghost souls would theoretically be taken by the Underworld, but few soul capturers have the capability to take Servant Ghosts from his hands. Historically, they've had some grievances, and a Mountain Monarch transformation is not something ordinary Underworld ghost servants dare provoke.
"Lu Shanjun!"
The bull-headed deity seemed to recognize him, growing increasingly serious; if he were an ordinary fierce tiger turned demon, it would have been dealt with already. But Lu Shanjun has an extraordinary background, even the Underworld cannot trace his origins, or perhaps they've guessed some, yet none wish to interfere.
——Lu Shanjun (Symbol of Tiger) (Great deceit appearing clumsy) (Divine Power) (Six-star silver gray)!
Long time no see.
Lu Shanjun's strength progressed tremendously, the aura surrounding him condensed into a tiger form, so rigid and yang, seldom do demons condense True Qi mana to this extent, his imposing power even overwhelms the bull-headed deity, creating the formidable scene of a tiger preying on a bull.
Within him, True Qi, fierce aura, and mana fully integrated, having entered the path to develop a divine power.
"He indeed is the tiger born in the hour of Yin."
Last time the bull-headed deity saw Lu Shanjun, he did not possess the current power, but now they are equally matched, even suppressed by his aura.
Misery!
Each of these people carries an extraordinary fate, not to mention that dignified young man, even those like Yun Wangji and Fu Jianhan carry some unusual aura, suggesting some heritage, even this soul capturer finds it hard to discern their origins.
"Could it be the Taoist sect has really led Star Lords to reincarnate into the mortal world?"
Taoism stealing the sky, Buddhism stealing the earth.
Rumor has it the Taoist sect plans to use some Secret Technique during the Luo Heavenly Great Ritual to descend all Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars and Seventy-Two Earthly Spirits to the mortal world, albeit truth of the rumors unknown.
If they truly intended to proceed, wouldn't it cause worldwide chaos?
Before the bull-headed deity had more time to ponder, Lu Shanjun angrily acted, a dominative palm print striking head-on, rigid and yang, appearing clumsy yet skillful, unavoidable, irresistible, compelling forced reception.
Clatter!
Lu Shanjun's wrathful strike, like a surging tide collapsing a mountain.
Spurt!
The bull-headed deity spat blood, the figure blasted backward, expression aghast, the former aura vanished, it raised the Yin Banner, the figure instantly transformed into thick smoke escaping.
Not good.
If Lu Shanjun allied with these people, it could indeed result in its demise!
Mistaken by Listening indeed!
The bull-headed deity's figure transformed into ghost mist, fleeing, while Lu Shanjun pursued relentlessly, the rigid palm power descending, dispersing ghost mist in sections.
The surrounding Underworld ghost servants scattered in retreat!
Duncan's figure darted forth, aligning with Lu Shanjun to intercept the fleeing bull-headed deity applying escape technique.
But now that the bull-headed deity retreated defeated, everyone else present contemplated among themselves. Lady Jade Face, driven by love, unhesitatingly transferred True Qi through her palm, aiding Duncan to leap through the air, resembling a celestial being, Fu Jianhan showed courage, willing to battle even a bull-head or horse-face, directly slashing out Pure Yang Sword Qi.
However, the other two present showed hesitation, Monk without Restraint appeared conflicted, the bull-headed deity being a Buddhist-brought ghost god, if he intervenes, does it account as credit or fault?
