The Demon King's other subordinates panicked when they realized that their main force had not returned after a long time.
When they reached Peacock Mountain, they were completely dumbfounded.
Peacock Mountain was no longer as quiet as it used to be. All sorts of Daluo Golden Immortals came and went. It had the aura of a large sect.
However, they had never entered the Daluo Golden Immortals.
There were only so many strong cultivators in the vast wilderness. The sudden appearance of so many that they had never seen before made the group of demons nervous.
"Since when did Peacock Mountain have so many strong cultivators? Where's the Demon King? "
"Don't you think their auras are familiar?"
"Eh? Indeed … a little like … "
They quickly recognized them. Weren't they their comrades who had followed the Demon King to occupy Peacock Mountain? Although their appearances had changed, their auras had not changed.
"I see. The Demon King has already occupied Peacock Mountain."
"But why didn't he inform us?"
The small demons did not know what was going on. They all pressed down their clouds.
At the foot of the mountain, Godzilla had already noticed them. When he saw them approaching, he sighed. "What are you doing here?"
The small demons recognized the aura. "Isn't this Lord Leize? How did you become like this? "
Leize's cultivation was extremely high. He was the Demon King's right-hand man. In their opinion, he would not be reduced to a gatekeeper.
Leize smiled bitterly. Lan Mu did not care about his cultivation. He only looked at his size.
After all, shaping could not change one's size and mass.
Many weaker cultivators had entered the Dao Seeking Palace as servants. Due to his size, he was assigned to guard the mountain gate. He had no choice.
"Don't ask. The owner of this place is a powerful cultivator. I'm here to guard the gate. If you don't leave, don't blame me for taking action!"
Leize was loyal to his duty. On the one hand, he did not dare to run.
This was because there was once a big demon who was turned into a woman. He could not change back. Even though he had returned to his original form, his appearance was still fixed in the form of a red-haired woman.
That big demon could not accept it. He took advantage of Lan Mu's cultivation to escape.
At that time, all the big demons were watching that escape. They thought that if he could escape, everyone would escape! At most, they would never come near Peacock Mountain again.
However, the result was obvious. Lan Mu caught up with him at an inconceivable speed, and even his flight path was intermittent.
The Great Demon was easily captured and brought back. After that, it was transformed again.
She was no longer in the form of a woman. Instead, she had turned into a stone and was suppressed within the Stately Painting.
At this point, no one dared to flee.
Other than this, there was another reason why Lei Ze did not want to escape.
That was the Palace Lord of Daoask Palace, a rare almighty being.
He never avoided using his Five-colored Divine Light. Every time he used it, it was extremely beneficial to them.
Just looking at it was comparable to years of hard work.
Lei Zhe often peeked his Primordial Spirit into the Dao Querying Palace to peek at the cultivation. When Lan Mu and Qing Feng noticed it, they did not stop him.
Right now, Lei Ze's greatest wish was to enter the palace and seek the Dao from a close distance.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the small demons wanted to escape.
With a single thought, Lei Ze took all of them down.
He didn't kill him. Instead, he hurriedly used his Divine Sense to inform Qing Feng, who was in the palace.
"Fairy Qingfeng, what do you think of these little demons? Please put in a good word for them and let them take over my guard duty! "
Qing Feng replied in her heart, "You're too big. Master doesn't like it."
Lei Ze said anxiously, "I can turn smaller! Really! Unfortunately, all of my transformations are locked. Fairy, please help me remove this lock. You can change me into anything you want! "
Qing Feng smiled, "Looks like you don't mind the changes to your appearance anymore."
Lei Ze said, "It's just an appearance. For the sake of Dao, I'm not afraid of any humiliation."
Back then, Qing Feng had done the same thing. However, he corrected, "This is not humiliation. Although Master did not say it out loud, he was actually doing it for your own good. He was teaching you. He wants you to know your true nature and not be hung up on your appearance. "
"You call me fairy. Do you know that I'm not a woman?"
Lei Ze was stunned and then shocked.
He had always thought that this was a punishment that would only be used on them. As the eldest disciple, Qing Feng naturally would not be punished like this.
But hearing Qing Feng's words, he was also transformed!
"It's not a punishment?" Lei Ze was shocked.
Qing Feng said, "This is the Dao of Wuji. Only by being without appearance can one see the true self."
Lei Ze did not think that this was a lie. After all, Qing Feng was Lan Mu's only disciple. In concept, she was Lan Mu's successor.
She was the only candidate to inherit Lan Mu's legacy.
If this was a punishment, Lan Mu would not harm Qing Feng. Hence, this must be a Dao technique!
Thinking of this, Lei Ze was touched. They followed the Demon Emperor to snatch the dojo. They deserved to die. However, not only did Lan Mu spare their lives, he even took them in as his disciples.
After that, he did not avoid the Dao. If it were anyone else, they would have been chased away or killed for peeping.
However, Lan Mu did not do anything. Wasn't he treating them as his disciples and secretly teaching them the Dao?
Although he did not teach them the Dao, he was teaching them the Dao. Lei Ze should have called him teacher.
Now that he heard Qing Feng's explanation, he was even more convinced that Lan Mu treated them well. They did not know what was good for them and thought it was a punishment.
Regarding this, Lan Mu did not explain.
At that moment, Lei Ze thought that he had figured it out. He felt guilty and cried, "So that's the case. Palace Master is indeed an almighty being. He is benevolent and has given us a new lease on life. He is a saint!"
"To think that I have always hated him. He really doesn't know what's good for him! What a joke! "
Qing Feng nodded and smiled, "You finally figured it out. In fact, you are the last one to figure it out. Don't you know that everyone in the palace is secretly listening to the Dao when they are cleaning the palace? Compared to that, you were arranged to be at the foot of the mountain. Your treatment is much worse. "
Lei Ze smiled bitterly, "I think it was because I was disrespectful to the Palace Master. Hence, I was punished to guard the mountain gate."
Qing Feng did not understand. After asking, she found out that it was Lei Ze who was yelling outside the mountain and asking everyone to go out and meet the Demon King.
"So that's the case. It seems that Master is very clear-minded … Don't worry, I will bring you to meet Master and plead on your behalf."
"Thank you, Fairy Qing Feng!"
…
Lan Mu approved of Qing Feng. As time passed, he felt even more guilty towards Qing Feng.
This was because if he did not fulfill the expectations of the Three Pure Ones in a few tens of thousands of years, he might erase Qing Feng's consciousness and transform her.
Although Lan Mu did not want to do that, he knew that when the time came, he would definitely do it.
With this guilt in his heart, he directly agreed to Qing Feng's pleas.
He forced the newly captured demons back to their original forms and punished them to guard the mountain gate.
As for Lei Ze, he was changed back to his original form. Lan Mu removed the lock on his image.
"From today onwards, you will stay in the palace and be the Thunder Fire Child in the alchemy room."
Lei Ze was overjoyed. He was finally allowed to listen to the Dao at a close distance.
Then, Lei Ze shrunk himself and transformed into a normal-sized humanoid Dao figure.
He looked at Lan Mu with respect and anticipation, as if he was waiting for something.
This meant that he was waiting for Lan Mu to change his appearance.
However, Lan Mu had already done that. Previously, he did that purely because he despised the demons for being ugly. Now that he had changed them back, he was too lazy to change them back.
Therefore, Lan Mu did not do anything and remained calm.
What he didn't know was that as he sat there, Lei Ze started to panic.
He thought that Lan Mu did not want him to enter the Dao of Wuji and was still estranged from him.
His face turned pale and he kowtowed again, kowtowing.
"Master, please take pity on me and turn me into a woman!"
"Hmm?"
Lan Mu was finally stunned. Of course, he was used to being expressionless, but his heart was in turmoil.
What was going on? Was he addicted?
He recalled that in the past few years, these demons were looking at him with more and more respect.
He did not know that Qing Feng was secretly praising him and spreading the idea of the Dao of Wuji.
After all, Qing Feng sincerely respected Lan Mu and felt that Lan Mu had a deeper meaning behind everything.
Therefore, Qing Feng felt that his master was benevolent and was secretly passing on the Dao.
The other demons thought so too, which was why they respected Lan Mu.
However, they did not know that Lan Mu was just used to showing the process of his Dao development. On one hand, it was for Qing Feng to see. On the other hand, he also noticed that these demons were secretly watching, but he was too lazy to stop them.
After all, these demons were also talented and had a similar level of understanding as Qing Feng.
Perhaps one of them would figure out the Dao of Wuji and Wuji. At that time, they would not need to possess Qing Feng and Lan Mu would have one less thing to worry about.
It was because of this that he would often narrate, afraid that these demons would not be able to see enough.
Therefore, to say that he was secretly passing on the Dao was also true.
At the beginning of the world, there was no one to pass on the teachings. Lan Mu's actions were very respectable.
However, with the great demons' respect and Qing Feng's spreading, they stubbornly believed that the Dao of Wuji was Lan Mu's kindness.
It was the Great Dao of Light that was cultivated by the disciples of the almighty!
"I'll accept it if he calls me master … But this hobby of his …" Lan Mu was expressionless, but in his heart, he treated Lei Ze's request as a hobby.
He thought for a moment and said, "You want to become a woman?"
"Yes! Master, please help me. I will be eternally grateful! "Lei Ze said seriously.
Lan Mu said helplessly, "What do you want to become?"
Lei Ze heard that it was agreed and said happily, "I'll do as you wish!"
Lan Mu pursed his lips. It was up to him.
Therefore, he changed Lei Ze to look like a man without a woman.
He even said, "Your current appearance is suitable for Wuji, Wuji, and Wuji. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Lei Ze's face was full of gratitude. It completely destroyed the original intention of his image, which was why Lan Mu said that.
In Lei Ze's heart, he thought that was giving him pointers!
"I understand." In an instant, Lei Ze controlled his expression and looked indifferent.
The demons who were secretly observing were envious.
"Look! His temperament really matches his image! So the external appearance that master created for us is complemented by the 'mental cultivation method'! "
"The external appearance of the Dao of Wuji is just a supplement. There is also internal cultivation. We have never understood it!"
"No wonder I always felt awkward …"
