The appearance of this divine weapon made Emperor Cheng's eyes widen in the hut. He was excited and turned his head back, trying to calm the greed in his heart.
How can a mortal remain pure and free from desires when he meets a god
Either they seek wealth or immortality. It can be seen how great the temptation of the Nine Gates is to an emperor!
It's not that there were no emperors who wanted to take over the Nine Gates as their own property and use their Taoist magic to achieve immortality or become an immortal. But the Nine Gates have their own rules. The Nine Gates exist to protect the human world, not just the property of one person.
Once there is such a greedy monarch, the Nine Gates will close its doors, no longer have any contact with the royal family, and instantly disappear from the world without a trace.
So, the Nine Gates are still the same Nine Gates, but the emperor is never the same emperor.
Therefore, when passing on the Nine Gates, the wise ruler would tell the next ruler not to interfere with the Nine Gates, not to covet the Nine Gates' magic and elixirs, and not to be enemies with the Nine Gates. The Nine Gates are independent entities, and they cooperate with the royal family to better protect the world.
Resisting the temptation of the Nine Gates is also a kind of experience and test for a king.
Yun Xi proudly waved his Wuji Spear: "I have given my brother a name, it's called Kuangyan Spear, isn't it cool!" Yun Xi threw up Kuangyan, and immediately, Long Yan's whole body flashed red light, burning like flames.
Everyone looked on with envy and admiration.
Yun Xi showed his gun and gave it a name. Yun Yao suddenly became competitive and pushed Yun Xi away: "I want to go this time! I want to see the power of my magic weapon too!"
Yun Yao waved her sword, and immediately a blue hairpin flew out from her hair. Just like her owner's competitive and flamboyant personality, it flew around Kuang Yan and landed in Yun Yao's hand. It immediately became a crystal clear, crystal blue ice spear, so beautiful that it made people's hearts beat with envy.
Yunxi showed an unwilling expression: "Sister, you are really acting like a spoiled child. It was you who said you couldn't go, and now I want to go, and you come to snatch it from me."
"Why! You don't accept it!" Yun Yao said proudly, "I am your sister, but you have to endure it no matter how annoying it is, humph!"
Yun Xi pursed his lips. He was unable to refute Yun Yao's words.
Fat Buddha smiled and clasped his hands together to Yunxi: "Don't worry, Yunxi, Guan Ye and I will take good care of Xiaoyao and won't let her get hurt in the slightest."
"Hey! Fat Buddha, you said that, not me." The coffin master immediately passed the buck, "This fate is determined by heaven, life and death depends on ability."
Yunxi didn't care that Coffin Master was pushing the responsibility here, because everyone in the Nine Gates knew that Coffin Master was quick to push the responsibility, but if he really encountered trouble, he would never back down.
The scroll fluttered in the air, blood plums flew out, the green grass was stained with blood, and the air was filled with blood.
Yun Yao stood firmly in front of Lian Youyou: "Sister Youyou, I'll go this time!"
Lian Youyou smiled at her admiringly, then raised her eyes to look at He Shiqi who was standing by the pool, wondering what he was looking at.
“Aqi!” Lian Youyou snapped her fingers at He Shiqi. As soon as the snap was made, He Shiqi ran over obediently like a dog hearing a whistle: “Master, what’s the matter?!”
Lian looked at him for a while: "What are you looking at?"
He Shiqi stiffened his neck and didn't dare to look in the direction of the painting: "I'm waiting for Lord Heiyan, master. It's too dangerous and too scary. Is Lord Heiyan too scared to go in? He is usually here." He Shiqi was a little angry. At the critical moment, cats are unreliable!
Lian smiled leisurely: "Hei Yan is staring at somewhere else, go get me an oil lamp."
"Oh!" He Shiqi hurried towards the hut.
When Lian Youyou looked at everyone again, her face was full of the solemnity and courage of a general arranging the battle array: "This painting realm is different from usual, and it has also been added with demonic power, so after entering, everyone must follow me closely. If you separate, it is easy to get lost in the painting realm and be trapped in it forever."
The coffin master raised his hand: "What if they are really scattered?"
Fat Buddha, Yun Yao, and Yun Xi Sanniang who stayed outside this time all looked at Lian Youyou with concern.
Lian Youyou's gaze rested on Guan Ye's face for a moment, and suddenly, she raised her lips and smiled: "Looking for a pot."
The coffin master was stunned. Looking for a scapegoat? What was this? The gods really loved to play dumb and say things they couldn't understand.
When Yunxi heard this, he wondered in his heart, could it be related to the pot that Lian Youyou was going to give to Fat Buddha
"Master! Light!" He Shiqi hurried back with an oil lamp.
Lian Youyou took the oil lamp and snapped her fingers. The oil lamp immediately lit up in front of the painting. Lian Youyou raised her lips and muttered: "The essence of fire, the spirit of light and shadow, my god's command, search for the trace in the strange land! Show up!" Suddenly, a golden ray of light shot out from the flame and went straight into the secret land!
"Oh——" everyone exclaimed. They had never seen the light come true!
That was real light in front of them, a ray of golden light as thin as a line across the front of everyone, straight into the secret realm. Everyone was curious and stretched out their hands to cut off the light, and the light was really cut off by the master's hand, falling into everyone's palm as a point of light. But when the palm moved away, the light went straight into the painting again.
Lettuce saw it more clearly. He could see things that others could not see. In front of him, the painting was not a painting, but a dark entrance as big as a door. There were faint black ghost claws extending from it, clinging to the edge of the entrance, eager to try, as if countless evil ghosts were about to rush out from that entrance, which made him extremely frightened.
And that golden light was exceptionally clear in the world he saw. When the only ray of golden light shot into the entrance, the ghost claws retreated back into the entrance one after another.
The exclamation of everyone made Master Yao Guang in the small room curious, and he couldn't help but squeeze Emperor Cheng slightly: "Your Majesty, let me have a look too, let me have a look too."
Of course Emperor Cheng refused to let him go, and he stretched out his hand to push his fat face away: "Be quiet!"
Lian Youyou carefully put down the oil lamp in her hand. The stone table beside her stood up in a panic and ran to stand in front of her. Lian Youyou pushed the mahjong on the table away, put down the lamp, and looked at He Shiqi, Sanniang and others: "Take good care of it, this is our guide to go home."
Hearing this, everyone's faces became solemn. Sanniang and Yunxi immediately sat down beside the round table to guard the lamp.
Lian Youyou looked at Yun Yao, Fat Buddha and Coffin Master and nodded. She waved her sleeves and immediately dispersed the blood plums flying in front of her, revealing a clear passage. Lian Youyou walked forward to the painting, raised her foot, and really stepped into the painting!
Everyone was stunned!
Lian walked in leisurely, with only half of his body left outside. He turned back and said to Sanniang, "Sanniang, if anything comes out, as long as it's not us, kill it without mercy!"
Sanniang held the pipe in her hand and nodded to Lian Youyou, with a calm expression that made people trust her. Even if she didn't respond, she knew that it was okay to leave it to her.
After Lian Youyou finished her instructions, she turned around and disappeared into the painting.
Yun Yao was a little panicked and walked between Fat Buddha and Coffin Master. (To be continued)
