Rokko Island disappeared, and my entire body fell toward the ground.
I hurriedly mobilized the spiritual energy in my body and flew into the air.
Now I have reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, and flying in the air is no problem for me.
"Ouch! ... Master, save me."
I heard a sound not far away. I turned around and saw Elder Ma falling headfirst.
I quickly moved to Elder Ma and put my arms around his body, which helped him stabilize his body.
I took out the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword and activated it. The sword emitted a red and white glow.
"Elder Ma, please stand on the magic sword first and stabilize your body." I reminded.
"Yes, Master."
Elder Ma followed my instructions, placed his foot on the blade of the magic sword, and stood still.
After taking a breath, Elder Ma said, "Master, I was shocked just now. I didn't expect Liujia Island to disappear suddenly."
I smiled and explained, "Liujia Island has not disappeared. It has just been absorbed into the Divine Map of Mountains, Rivers, and States. Now all the elves are in the Divine Map."
Elder Ma showed a look of surprise in his eyes: "Does the divine map have this function?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, the Mountain, River, State and God Map is an ancient artifact with great power. Now that my cultivation has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, it won't be difficult to activate it."
Just like that, I controlled the magic sword and flew towards a reef in the distance with Elder Ma.
Now Rokko Island is gone, the original land has been submerged by the sea, with only a few reefs on the shore exposed.
Next to the reef, the small yacht was docked there.
On the yacht, Xiaoman and Masaki, who were controlled by me with the god-controlling talisman, stared blankly in the direction of Rokko Island.
The light on the magic sword disappeared, and Elder Ma and I landed on the deck of the yacht.
I put away my magic sword, went behind Xiaoman, and took down the god-controlling talisman.
Although the God-Controlling Talisman is quite effective and cannot cause any serious harm to Xiaoman, it is still very draining on a person's energy.
After I took off the spirit control talisman, Xiaoman's body softened and he fell to the ground. However, his breathing was even and there was nothing serious.
I placed my palm on Xiaoman's chest and injected a little spiritual energy into Xiaoman's body.
Soon Xiaoman opened his eyes: "Hey, why did I fall asleep? ... ... Ouch, why is my head so dizzy? Where is this place?"
Xiaoman asked in a daze.
I stood by and said with a smile: "Xiao Man, don't you remember me? We are your passengers. Did you not get enough rest and fall asleep just now?"
Xiaoman thought about it silently for a while, then said, "Oh, yes, I remember now, you are Brother Yang, Yang Tianyi, and that is Uncle Ma. You are here to look for Liujia Island on the sea."
I nodded and said, "Yes, you are right, but I am afraid we can't find Rokko Island. I am also tired, why don't we go back."
Xiaoman looked around and agreed, "We have to go back. Liujia Island is just a legendary place. It's not certain whether it exists or not. We can't just look for it randomly. The sea may look calm, but there are still many dangers."
Xiaoman started the yacht and after identifying the direction, we started to return.
When we were going back, Xiaoman asked me in confusion: "Brother Yang, I remember we were in a thick fog before, why is the fog gone now?"
I smiled and said, "You must have seen it wrongly. I don't see any fog."
Xiaoman scratched his head, showing his white teeth and smiled, but didn't say anything else.
A few hours later
, we returned to Sanzhu City.
According to the agreement between Xiaoman and I, I needed to pay him 50,000 yuan as labor fee and yacht rental fee. But Xiaoman said he didn't want any labor fee, only 30,000 yuan.
But he probably didn't realize that more than a month had passed without him noticing.
He refused to take it, but I still forced a bank card on him.
I told him there were 30,000 yuan in the card, but actually, there were 150,000 yuan in it. After all, Xiaoman followed us to find Liujia Island, and I delayed her time and controlled her mind with the mind-controlling talisman.
If there is no compensation, I will feel uneasy.
After saying goodbye to the enthusiastic Xiaoman, Elder Ma and I boarded the train to Huangshi City. Although we could take a plane, I was not used to it, and Elder Ma and I both needed to rest, so the train had sleeper berths, which was good.
This trip to Liujia Island was very rewarding. First, they found Liujia Island and subdued the elves, and later they formed a complete "Divine Map of Mountains, Rivers, and the State".
Moreover, in the Lingyin Forest that appeared in the divine map, he killed a group of members of the Sky Demon Clan and obtained the Haotian Tower.
The most important thing is that I finally met the mysterious man.
Although I don’t know the identity of the mysterious man, I think he can help me a lot.
I also know that the good karma of the ghost-catching Taoist priest is not without effect. If used properly, it can have a strong inhibitory effect on evil spirits.
Also, I know the location of the ancient Bodhi tree, which is under the Cliff of Resurrection in the underworld.
This is very important, extremely important, it concerns my life and death.
No matter whether that place of compassion is dangerous or not, I will give it a try this time.
Failure turns into benevolence.
Having achieved my goal, I felt relieved and free of trivial matters. I fell drowsily on the berth and fell asleep.
I slept so soundly that I didn’t realize the train had arrived until Elder Ma called me.
I didn't call my master Jiang Jiuzhen directly. Instead, I hired a van and Elder Ma and I rushed to Tianmen Mountain.
It was afternoon, and when I went to Tianmen Mountain, I actually saw quite a few people.
I was greatly surprised by the appearance of those people.
There are actually quite a few people I am familiar with, including Master Lou Xiaoman, Zhao Xilan, Master Jiang, Long Yuanda, Fatty Li, Master Qi, Master Chu Tiande, Xiao Junmin, Leng Feng, Luo Siwei, the divine fortune teller Wu Bokang, the little monk Yuquan, the cat demon clan's grandmother Tianqi (now she should be called Yuling, and is considered a disciple of Master Xiangyun), Miao girl Qiushui, Granny Tianhua, Granny Chimu, Master Liu Deshui... ...
There are people I know and people I don’t know.
I even saw my cheap master Zhang Chu.
"Why are they all here?" I was surprised.
In the courtyard of the Zhengyi Sect in Tianmen Mountain, everyone gathered and sat cross-legged on mats.
My master Jiang Jiuzhen sat opposite them, talking eloquently, as if he was explaining Taoism to them.
Seeing me appear, Master Jiang waved at me and said with a smile: "Our little master is back!"
After he finished speaking, those people turned around and focused their eyes on me.
"Tianyi, do you still recognize me?"
"Brother Yang, you seem to have gained weight."
"Tianyi, you deceived us so badly. Your master turned out to be a master of Tianzheng Sect in Tianmen Mountain. Why didn't you tell us at the beginning?"
Everyone started talking about it.
My master stopped talking and said no more.
Many people stood up from the ground, and my cheap master Zhang Chu walked towards me.
"Hehe, disciple, I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a few months, you have become the leader of Tianzheng Sect. Not bad, not bad, you are worthy of being my disciple, Zhang Chu, your talent is extraordinary."
My master Zhang Chu said to me with a smile.
I noticed his legs and asked in surprise, "Master, your legs?"
Zhang Chu said happily, "My leg is fine. It was cured by your master Jiang Jiuzhen. From now on, don't call me master. Just call me second master. After all, I met you after Jiang Jiuzhen. And I am now a member of Tianzheng Sect."
What? My legs were healed by my master Jiang Jiuzhen? My master, no, my second master Zhang Chu, became a member of the Tianzheng Sect
What does that mean? I'm a bit confused.
At this moment, a figure flashed and appeared in front of me. It was my master Jiang Jiuzhen.
Jiang Jiuzhen looked at me and Elder Ma, and asked in a deep voice: "Tianyi, how is it, have you found the sacred map of mountains, rivers, and the country?"
I bowed to my master and said, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and found everything. I also obtained two ancient artifacts, the Haotian Tower and the Xuanwu Shield."
"Two artifacts? Oh my god, this is incredible."
The person who spoke was someone I knew, Master Qi.
I smiled and said, "Master Qi, I'm sorry for making fun of you."
Qi Lin hurriedly said, "No, no, no, don't call me Master Qi from now on. Just call me Qi Lin. I have now joined the Tianzheng Sect and become a disciple of the sect. From now on, you will be the head of my Qi Lin."
I was so surprised that I turned to face my master Jiang Jiuzhen and said, "Master, what is this..."
My master Jiang Jiuzhen had a stern face and said solemnly: "Tianyi, this is what I want to tell you. You are now their leader. The world is about to change, and the Sky Demon Clan is about to appear. Only by gathering strength can we deal with those Sky Demons."
"And you may not know that during the time you were away, something unusual has happened in Wanxia Mountain in Jiangbin City. A strong demonic aura has enveloped the entire Wanxia Mountain. In addition, many members of the Demon Clan whose bloodlines have been revived have entered Wanxia Mountain."
"Although the blood of those members of the Sky Demon Clan who have revived has blended with that of humans, they still have demonic nature in them, so they are easily controlled by the Demon Emperor. I have already found out that the soul of the Demon Emperor Mosuluo is on Wanxia Mountain."
"And it won't be long before the demons on Wanxia Mountain will start destroying the human world. Previously, the government had discovered the anomaly on Wanxia Mountain and dispatched a regiment of troops from the 1st District of the Third Army of Jiangbin City to explore Wanxia Mountain."
"But as far as I know, those soldiers have never come out since they entered Wanxia Mountain. I'm afraid they are in great danger. But there has been no major movement on Wanxia Mountain recently, so I guess that Demon Emperor Mosuluo may be about to take action."
My brows were furrowed tightly and I felt uneasy.
Although I control the Haotian Tower and the Xuanwu Shield, as well as the Mountain and River Divine Map, if I really face the Demon Emperor Mosuluo, I am afraid I will not have much chance of winning.
Besides, my girlfriend Xiaoli is still in the hands of that Demon Emperor Mosala.
Seeing my gloomy face, my master Jiang Jiuzhen comforted me: "But, Tianyi, you don't have to feel too much pressure. These things are God's will and have their own destiny. Since we have encountered them, we must take responsibility."
"That's right. I have summoned all the Taoists in the ghost-catching Taoist profession in Jiangbin City, as well as many Taoists in Huangshi City, to Tianmen Mountain. Now that they have the 'Yin Yang Absorbing Spirits' method, they can practice as quickly as possible. By then, it will not be a problem for them to deal with the weak members of the Sky Demon Clan."
I nodded, but my heart was still heavy.
