He returned to the Xiao Qiong Mount and entered the Pill Chamber.
Li Changshou used his immortal senses to admire the defensive array formation of the attic that he had created for his Aunt-Master Jiujiu.
Indeed, if he had not left a "backdoor" behind, he would not have been able to see through the layers of light walls …
After that incident, Little Aunt-Master's safety in the sect had been greatly improved.
Although he had spent a lot of precious materials …
However, the value of a life was not something that could be measured by those precious materials!
He counted the "friends" that he was involved with. Aunt-Master Jiujiu, Jiu Wu, and Elder Wan Linyun …
There was also half of his toxic junior sister.
The number of "friends" that he had now had exceeded his expectations.
He had to pay attention in the future, lest he got involved in some strange matters because he had made too many friends.
Then, he checked the various array formations on the Xiao Qiong Mount and observed the movements of the various peaks in the sect.
After sensing the Dao runes that his junior sister revealed when she was cultivating, he secretly glanced at his master, who was cultivating hard in the straw hut …
After confirming that everything was normal, Li Changshou activated the trapping array formation outside the Pill Chamber. He left a wisp of his mind to guard his main body and focused most of his attention on the paper effigy.
Now, the most important thing was to sever the karma of the Sea God of the South Ocean. He could not let the Sea God Sect grow and expand …
In the gap between the underground rock veins, he slowly opened his eyes.
Li Changshou checked the Sensing Stone on the paper effigy's body and the simple array formations around it.
Very good, no one discovered it …
After stabilizing the paper effigy's aura, Li Changshou used his escape technique underground and rose from a depth of ten thousand feet to a depth of a thousand feet.
He had carefully pondered over the depth of a thousand feet underground.
At that depth, the speed of the Earth Escape was faster. It would not leave any aura disturbances on the ground, nor would it bump into some hard precious material veins …
If he really bumped into them, he might be able to make a fortune …
At that moment, Li Changshou was at the border between the East Continent and the South Continent. He passed by a few territories of the demons and quickly approached the mortal world of the South Continent.
In order to increase his safety, Li Changshou chose the path he had taken before …
He scanned with his immortal senses. The mountains and rivers welcomed him and sent him off in a hurry.
With a thought, he saw a familiar scene again.
For example, the frequent battles between Qi Refinement cultivators and the common battles between mountain demons and elves.
The battle at that impregnable pass finally stopped. The city walls were dyed dark red.
Li Changshou also happened to find traces of the uncle and sister-in-law who ran towards love and freedom at the edge of a forest.
However, her uncle was still there, but her sister-in-law was nowhere to be seen. There was a young man chopping firewood nearby to start a fire …
This was probably the mundane world of mortals.
For two days, Li Changshou found a hidden corner in a large city in the mortal world and changed to a paper effigy that was in a hurry.
The immortal power of the paper effigy could not recover on its own. It was naturally not worth it to waste the combat power of a paper effigy while rushing.
It took Li Changshou another seven to eight days to slowly approach him …
What do you mean by that!?!
The matter of the Sea God Sect in the South Sea had nothing to do with him!
If he could return the merit from incense offerings in exchange for the destruction of the South Sea God Sect without any consequences, Li Changshou would definitely agree.
At that moment, the South Sea God Sect was not considered large. It was mainly distributed in the towns and villages at the edge of the South Sea. Most of them were fishermen who would worship the Sea God …
The first place that Li Changshou chose to stay was at the edge of the South Sea God Sect. It was an ordinary town located on a plain.
There were about five to six thousand households there. Many peddlers were resting there, and it was considered rather prosperous …
On the main road that passed through the town, one could see some gentle "walking beasts" that looked like cows and horses. They were pulling some carriages and delivering goods.
A temple of the Sea God Sect was built on the south side of the town, next to the main road.
There were many incense offerings there. Most people who went out and returned home would come to the ground to offer incense and pray for peace.
After finding an empty corner and secretly observing for a few hours, Li Changshou was finally willing to emerge from the dense forest …
At that moment, the paper effigy looked like a white-haired, white-bearded, kind-looking Lao Dao.
He was dressed in a grayish-white clean robe, with a Dao hoop on his head and a horsetail whisk in his hand. He walked as if he was floating on the ground, like an otherworldly expert filled with immortal aura …
Li Changshou first strolled around the town. Many mortals looked at him.
That place was considered to be at the edge of the mortal world of the human race. The people there were rather simple and honest. Everyone did not see many Qi Refinement cultivators with such an appearance. They were all curious.
Apart from curiosity, the townspeople also showed their enthusiasm.
When he passed by the bun shop, a peddler delivered steaming buns.
When he walked past the teahouse, another young man who was a waiter greeted him with a cup of hot tea.
Coincidentally, he passed by an elegant wooden building. A window was pushed open, and a short stick that was supporting the window accidentally fell. The young lady behind the window covered her mouth and chuckled …
Li Changshou did not see it at all. He strolled past and gradually approached the temple of the Sea God in the South Ocean.
The temple was not considered grand.
In fact, it was just a square courtyard with a ten-feet-tall stone statue in the middle of the courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, Li Changshou looked up at the statue that looked very similar to his main body. He sighed in his heart.
It was also because his abilities were not there yet. He had yet to cultivate a mystical ability that prevented others from remembering his appearance.
At that time, he had been struck by the Heavenly Tribulation and Heavenly Punishment. He had been seriously injured and had fallen into the enlightenment of ascension. Li Changshou really could not care about those details …
He could only think of a way to salvage the situation.
"Oh? Where did you come from? "
A greeting suddenly came from the corner of the courtyard. A short and thin "Qi Refinement cultivator" who was dressed in a dirty and tattered Daoist robe jogged over.
That person's cultivation level seemed to be only at the third stage of the Qi Refinement realm. He could only barely cast some low-power spells.
He had set up a stall in the corner of the courtyard to seek divination and dispel divination. At the same time, he sold some "long incense" of varying prices. He should be there to make a living.
However, Li Changshou did not dare to be careless.
That person might be a spy planted by the Western Sect. He might also be a rather powerful expert that he could not see through …
Even though the probability of that happening was not high …
In short, Li Changshou would constantly remind himself to be careful when he stepped into the Sea God Sect's influence.
The old fortune-teller walked over quickly. When he was still thirty feet away, Li Changshou had already bowed with a Dao salute …
"Fellow Daoist, I greet you."
"This?"
The old fortune-teller was stunned at first. His small eyes darted around and he immediately bowed with a Dao salute. He smiled and said, "That's right.
He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you're too polite.
Fellow Daoist, where did you come from? Why did you come to our small temple? "
Li Changshou replied, "I traveled far away and saw that this place was bustling with incense offerings. However, I have never heard of the Goddess in this temple. I was a little puzzled, so I came to take a look."
The old fortune-teller frowned. "Have you never heard of the Sea God?"
Li Changshou shook his head and smiled. "I'm just here for the first time …"
"Old man! Don't say such words in front of the Sea God! "
The old fortune-teller shouted softly and said loudly with a straight face, "Everyone in the world knows the name of the Sea God!
Old man, please be careful with your words and actions in front of the Sea God's statue.
Some time ago, a rich family in the town offended the Sea God and said something wrong here. In the end, the next day, he drank a cup of wine and died. The wife he had just married became a widow! "
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
"Oh? The Sea God is actually so accurate? "
"That's right." The old fortune-teller who was in the Qi Refinement realm laughed smugly. A devotee also chimed in and said that it was the case.
Then, the old fortune-teller continued what he had just said and continued to talk about … the story of the Sea God.
More than ten mortals who had come to offer incense also gathered at the side.
When the old fortune-teller told the story, the mortals kept replying. Everyone seemed to have experienced it personally.
Li Changshou patiently listened to the old fortune-teller's "legends", and his heart kept twitching.
At present, the most widely circulated stories about the Sea God in the South Ocean were:
"The Sea God Versus the Carp Spirit", "The Sea God's Six Plays: The Little Dragon Girl", "The Sea God Said: This Pain in the Storm is Nothing", "The Sea God Brought Schools of Fish", "Believe in the Sea God, You Will Get Great Power" …
Regardless of whether others believed it or not, Li Changshou would never believe it even if it was an onomatopoeic phrase.
He definitely did not do anything!
He had never seen the female carp spirit or the Little Dragon Girl!
There was also the young girl who was pregnant with the Sea God out of wedlock. Could he carefully investigate the cause and effect? He could not bear such a groundless accusation!
The old man had been talking for a long time, and his mouth was a little dry. Seeing that Li Changshou did not speak, he snorted softly.
"Do you understand what I've said?"
"I've heard it, but I don't quite understand it." Li Changshou smiled slightly. At that moment, his benevolent appearance was somewhat amiable.
Li Changshou explained earnestly, "Gathering incense is also a cultivation method.
I don't seem to have any miracles here.
Fellow Daoist, is there any suspicion of exaggeration in what you said? "
The old fortune-teller immediately widened his eyes and shouted,
"Exaggerated?!
Hey! I say, old man, where did you come from? What are you doing here?
This is the Sea God Sect. The Oracles of the Sea God Sect are all extremely powerful! "
Li Changshou's thoughts raced as he said, "Immense strength can be achieved with a little cultivation. You said that you were used by others.
If the Sea God of the South Ocean is really that effective, I will stand here and let him appear. "
The surrounding mortals immediately looked like they were about to beat him up. The old fortune-teller's face was also filled with heartache.
"You, you … You don't understand our Sea God at all!
Forget it, leave quickly, leave quickly!
The Sea God is still considered magnanimous to you now. He might punish you later! "
Li Changshou was about to speak when the old man had already chased him away. There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.
One of them retreated, while the other advanced. The surrounding mortals also chased him away.
Li Changshou took advantage of the chaos to leave some spider webs in the corner of the courtyard door. That was why he was chased out by Lao Dao and the devotees …
Standing in front of the courtyard door, Li Changshou did not know whether to laugh or cry.
It was quite a strange thing for him to be chased out of the temple where his statue was worshiped by his own believers.
Li Changshou deliberately sighed. The old immortal that the paper effigy had transformed into casually flicked his horsetail whisk a few times and walked along the main road to the south …
Originally, he had left behind the Double-Eyed Spider Silk because he wanted to better understand the Sea God Sect.
If he wanted to destroy the Sea God Sect without bloodshed, he had to figure out why so many people believed in him, the Sea God who had never appeared before. He had to find the key points and overthrow them one by one.
However, the spider silk that Li Changshou had placed there had given him a small, unexpected gain in the dead of the night …
In the middle of the night, the old fortune-teller slipped out of the room and took out a paper talisman. He lit it and waited quietly in the courtyard.
Not long after, under the moonlight, a crow landed in the courtyard. It looked around and turned into a human figure.
The old fortune-teller kept his head down and did not dare to look too much. He spoke with a trembling voice about the old immortal he had met during the day …
