The little white snake's body was small, and its eyes, mouth, and other parts were all red. The two red sarcomas on its head didn't look very obvious. Looking at its body, you could only feel that it was cute, but you couldn't feel its imposing manner.
Zhao Yongkun guessed that he was also bewitched by its appearance. That was why he didn't hesitate to fight with it. However, when he wielded his steel sword and rushed forward, the little white snake hissed, and its aura immediately changed.
As it hissed, the little white snake spat out a wisp of black air.
At first, the black air was just a small wisp, just like the little white snake's body. However, in just a blink of an eye, that wisp of black air became a black cloud that even covered Zhao Yongkun's body.
In the deep black air, Zhao Yongkun and the little white snake's bodies couldn't be seen. We could only hear the sounds of explosions. Not long after, Zhao Yongkun's body flew out of the black air and fell on the ground. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he was severely injured.
After beating Zhao Yongkun back, the little white snake retrieved its black air and slowly crawled to the front of the crowd. It looked at Zhao Yongkun with disdain and said with its sharp voice, "A human Feng Shui master is just so-so."
After speaking, it turned to look at Chairman Liu and the others. There was not a trace of emotion in its cold snake eyes as it said, "How dare you humans barge into my Mountain God Valley? None of you will be able to escape today. Prepare to enter my stomach."
Then, it stuck out its tongue like a human and licked the corner of its mouth.
Even when it was threatening, the little white snake still looked very cute. However, after it had defeated the powerful Zhao Yongkun in just a blink of an eye, no one dared to think that it was cute anymore. On the contrary, because of its petite appearance, it was even more frightening.
The crowd became restless and started to talk about the "Mountain God Valley" that the little white snake had mentioned. Then, they thought about the "Grandpa Mountain God" that Old Zheng had told us about.
I was also surprised. The "Grandpa Mountain God" that Old Zheng had mentioned was so scary, but I didn't expect it to be this little white snake.
While the crowd was talking, Zhao Yongkun stood up with his sword. His sinister eyes gazed at the little white snake. His left hand reached into his chest pocket and took out a red talisman.
I was surprised. I didn't expect that Zhao Yongkun would have this kind of talisman. Although I didn't know what kind of talisman it was, the Yin Talisman that Professor Deng had taken out last time was already very powerful, let alone the talisman that Zhao Yongkun had taken out.
The little white snake didn't seem to recognize the scarlet talisman. Seeing Zhao Yongkun's actions, it turned to look at him in disdain and said, "Human Feng Shui Master, I wanted to eat you last. I didn't expect you to be so eager to die."
Zhao Yongkun snorted coldly, "A little worm dares to boast. Today, I'll let you see the means of your Taoist grandpa!"
After saying that, he did not hesitate to form a profound hand seal, and then stuck the crimson talisman to his chest. At the same time, he chanted, "The Taishang descends upon me, the Three Pure Ones aid me, the Jade Blood Sword is born, Mao Shu, please succeed!"
As he spoke, his entire body swelled up, and his aura was fundamentally different from before.
Back then, I had seen the Daoist priest next to Oldman He recite this spell, but I didn't understand it back then. Later on, as I studied Feng Shui, I gradually understood some of the Daoist spells.
Only then did he realize that this Xuan Curse was not ordinary.
The Daoist Art of Inviting Reeds was one of the most commonly used and extremely powerful spells. When it was used, it could invite gods and ghosts to come to one's body, which was extremely powerful.
The God Summoning Spell and the Spirit Possession Spell among the people were also derived from the God Summoning Spell.
The Art of Inviting Reeds was divided into three levels. The lower level, the Art of Inviting Reeds, could invite the ghost general of the underworld to possess one's body. This would grant one immense strength and long vitality, allowing one to fight against demons and ghosts. It was an extremely useful technique, and it was also the most commonly used technique by Daoist priests when they were subduing demons and devils.
Because of the existence of the Art of Inviting Reeds, ordinary Daoist priests would carry steel swords with them, which were completely different from the peach wood swords that Feng Shui masters usually used.
When we were besieged by the ghosts, I used the talisman, and Zhao Yongkun used the lower level Art of Inviting Reeds. Just now, when he used the steel sword to fight against the little white snake, he also used the lower level Art of Inviting Reeds.
Now, he used the red talisman and recited the Xuan Curse. He wasn't using the lower level Art of Inviting Reeds, but the middle level Art of Inviting Reeds.
The middle level Art of Inviting Reeds could invite ancestors and even ghosts and spirits to come to the mortal world. Not only would it grant one infinite strength and long vitality, but it would also grant a large amount of Daoist energy to the body. Depending on the spirit or spirit that was invited, sometimes it could increase one's strength by one realm for a short period of time!
Forcibly increasing one's realm would sometimes bring about some negative effects, just like how the folk gods and goddesses used the half-baked Spirit Possession Technique. After using it, people would become weak and even lose their lifespan. But in terms of power, the middle level Art of Inviting Reeds was definitely an extremely powerful Daoist technique.
As for the upper level Art of Inviting Reeds, according to the legend, it could really be like what was recited in the Xuan Curse. It could invite the Taishang Laojun to possess the body and the Three Pure Ones to protect it. However, this was only a legend. In reality, no one could use it.
According to historical legends, the Ming Dynasty's Feng Shui master, Liu Bowen, once used the upper level Art of Inviting Reeds to possess the body and ask the Three Pure Ones to protect it.
However, this was only recorded in the book, and its authenticity was still debatable.
After using the middle level Art of Inviting Reeds, Zhao Yongkun was no longer as weak as before. With the steel sword in his hand, he rushed towards the little white snake.
The little white snake didn't care and continued to spit out black gas, trying to envelop Zhao Yongkun again.
This black gas was the Yin energy that the snake had produced after devouring countless Yin souls over the past hundred years. If an ordinary person touched it, their entire body would freeze and die. Even if it was a cultivator, if they came into contact with this black gas, their entire body's Dao energy would be quickly consumed.
Previously, when Zhao Yongkun used the lower level Art of Inviting Reeds, he was easily defeated because the black gas had consumed a lot of his Dao energy.
This time, the little white snake used the same trick, but it didn't have the same effect. Zhao Yongkun swung the steel sword in his hand and used only one slash to cut the black gas that the little white snake had spat out into two halves!
Then, he looked at the little white snake and snorted coldly. His face was extremely arrogant, as if he was really possessed by a God.
Seeing this scene, I felt a chill in my heart. I was afraid that Zhao Yongkun's strength was much stronger than what I had expected.
The Little White Snake was also startled, but it quickly became angry again. It opened its small red mouth and let out another sharp hiss.
Along with this hissing sound, the two extremely small red sarcomas on its head seemed to have grown a bit bigger. Its entire body looked like a small white dragon with two horns.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yongkun's face became serious. However, his God-like arrogant expression didn't disappear. He swung the sword in his hand and slashed at the two horns on the little white snake's head.
In the Book of Changes, the nine and five lines of the Qian hexagram said, "Dragons follow the clouds, and tigers follow the wind." The Flood Dragon's innate talent was water. Although the little white snake hadn't become a Flood Dragon yet, it had already understood the Flood Dragon's innate talent. Its small red mouth opened and a pure black water spurted out towards Zhao Yongkun's steel sword.
Almost at the moment when the two collided, the steel sword in Zhao Yongkun's hand directly melted. Only the sword hilt was left in his hand. His body quickly retreated.
In the end, the black water that the little white snake spat out was not willing to give up. It chased after Zhao Yongkun and went straight for his face.
In front of this black water, the long sword that contained Taoist Qi instantly disappeared like a block of ice under the scorching sun. Not to mention Zhao Yongkun's mortal body. As long as he was touched by this black water, he would definitely die in an instant.
At this critical moment, Zhao Yongkun used his hand to fiercely hit his chest and spat out a large amount of blood mist. Then, his mouth was full of blood and he chanted an extremely mysterious incantation.
Following his voice, the blood mist in the air didn't dissipate. Instead, it gradually condensed together and formed a talisman made of blood!
This was the Taoist "Jade Blood Talisman"!
It was rumored that this Jade Blood Talisman consumed ten years of lifespan. Its power was extremely terrifying!
