Celestial Immortal

Chapter 987 The Death of the White Deer Immortal!

 Lizhou, the capital is in charge of the courtyard and study room.

 “咚咚嚚”

 The little ghost boy was extremely happy when he saw that there was no one else in the house, and he quickly knelt down on the ground with a "pop":

“Congratulations to my senior brother for acting as the governor of the state, taking charge of all the affairs of demons and gods in Lizhou, and becoming the real leader of Lizhou!”

 “You’re the leader!”

Chu Chen banged it on the head with a violent shock, but handed it over with a handful of incense in his other hand.

 There is nothing we can do about it, the little devil is no longer what he used to be.

As a "little fairy boy who can relieve misfortune and bring good luck", its value has skyrocketed, and countless people offer incense to it every day. It is now very proud and is not as easy to care for as before.

 “Hey hey hey~”

 The little devil took the incense with satisfaction and was very happy:

“I still smell the incense I got from kowtow, but I still feel uncomfortable holding the incense offered by others!”

When Chu Chen heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry.

 “Hehehe~ The little devil has a pure heart, no wonder the ear report magical power is so effective!”

Seeing the conversation between the owner and the ghost in the house, layman Qingzhu couldn't help but have a deep smile on his face:

“Ling Xiao, what I said is right. In terms of real power, Fellow Daoist Bailu and Fellow Daoist Meng are far inferior to you. You are now the real leader in Lizhou.”

Chu Chen, who was originally the supervisor of the Zhengsanpin Prefecture, is now fully in charge of the Lizhou Ghosts and Gods Department. His authority is not that one plus one equals two, but is far greater than two. He controls both the supervision and the Ghosts and Gods Department. The real power in his hands suddenly overwhelmed the nominal leader Lizhou Mu Menglu. It was no longer the "state capital management" and "state animal husbandry" dividing and ruling Yin and Yang, but the true dictatorship of the world.

Of course, the White Deer Immortal had also defeated Mumeng Road in Lizhou before, but he only had a transcendent status in the Immortal Court. Unlike Chu Chen now, he did hold transcendent real power.

As long as Chu Chen thought about it, it would be easy to bypass Mumeng Road in Lizhou.

 As soon as he thought of this, layman Qingzhu felt extremely emotional.

The memory of Chu Chen asking him for advice on Confucian classics in the imperial capital is still vivid in his mind. In just over ten years, that young man with a seventh-level cultivation has grown to his current height all of a sudden. It is really embarrassing.

“Ling Xiao, you are my immediate boss now.”

 “Sir, please don’t make fun of me!”

Chu Chen saw the layman Qingzhu joking, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he quickly begged for mercy:

 “How can I be the leader? I’m just a temporary errand, and my life is to work!”

layman Qingzhu smiled, but did not continue to joke, but his expression became serious:

"Ling Xiao, although this is a temporary job, it is an excellent opportunity for you. I am afraid that Fellow Daoist Bailu will accept your favor and recommend it to the Immortal Court. As long as you help Fellow Daoist Bailu exterminate the witches and accomplish this, If you make great achievements, the follow-up path will be smooth.”

Although it is just an "expedient act" at the moment and the Immortal Court will have other arrangements in the future, to a certain extent, this is also a recognition of Chu Chen by the Immortal Court of the Heavenly Dynasty.

Now that this has happened and he has made great contributions, Chu Chen’s promotion to the “Prefecture Governor” is probably a matter of course. Either he will drop the word “agent” and become the de facto Lizhou Governor, or he will be transferred to other states and counties to manage a certain area. Show off your skills.

 “Sir, I understand.”

Chu Chen nodded slightly. This time it was Brother Bailu who reciprocated the favor and gave him a chance to perform.

 In fact, he is also the most suitable candidate.

 Let him act as the governor of the prefecture, gather the power of the Prefectural Supervision Department and the Department of Ghosts and Gods, coordinate resources, and increase the efficiency of the witch hunt by several percent. Once completed, it will be a win-win situation for all parties.

Because of this, layman Qingzhu took this matter very seriously and came to him personally to discuss the witch hunt with him.

 Approximately two hours later, layman Qingzhu returned home in good spirits.

“Sure enough, the Ziwei Sect still supports me!”

Chu Chen couldn't help but smile. Previously, he tried his best to help the White Deer Immortal. There were rumors circulating within the Ziwei Sect, doubting his position.

 Before, he didn't care at all and didn't care.

Facts have proven that even small rumors cannot be brought to light by chance. At the critical moment, the superiors are more awake than anyone else and should be given the necessary support.

As the head of the Taoist temple, the matter of suppressing witchcraft is not under the jurisdiction of layman Qingzhu. The reason why he is so active is, on the one hand, the "teacher-disciple relationship" and his concern. Secondly, layman Qingzhu is from the Ziwei sect and belongs to this group. The veteran Jie Ziwei can be regarded as representing the Ziwei sect this time, giving him practical and powerful support.

All the infighting and fighting on the mountaintops are nothing to mention in the face of absolute strength.

In the next few days, Chu Chen gradually took over and took control of the State Ghosts and Gods Department, integrated the resources of the Ghosts and Gods Department and the Supervision Department, and made efforts to encircle and suppress the Litian evil witches in the territory.

 After two months, a lot of gains were made, and more than 20 evil temples for obscene worship were destroyed one after another.

In the past two years, it has been entered into the deep water area. The rest is all difficult bones. It can be difficult to have this gain.

However, Chu Chen was still a little dissatisfied.

 Failed to kill the main body of Li Tian and the three remaining sub-temples. No matter how much we try, it will be of no use and cannot touch the foundation of Li Tian’s divine system.

“Senior brother, why don’t we go out to cut down mountains and destroy temples today?”

"No, let them take action on a few small temples, it will also give them a chance to practice their merits."

Chu Chen waved his hand and cast a spell to seal the ban outside the hospital:

“Little devil, senior brother has something to do today, please go outside and protect me!”

 “Oh oh~ OK!”

When Chu Chen saw the little devil leaving, he did not hesitate and sat cross-legged. The [Five Color Dream Dragon] in his body turned into the spirit [Red Dragon Demon Lord] and used [Luo Gui Ling] to communicate with the demonic realm outside the territory.

Luo Guizhen Demon will regularly convene a group of demons to discuss important matters and coordinate all parties.

 Among them were the demons from outside the territory who returned home from Luo, as well as representatives of the demon court. The demon giants from all over the eight southwest states discussed the situation and exchanged information, which was quite lively.

Chu Chen had obtained a lot of information from it before, so every time he participated, he would never be absent.

This time Chu Chen was delayed because of something, so it was a little late. At this moment, [Luo Guixiang] was constantly talking, and the discussion was extremely intense.

It just so happens that after the group of demons exchanged views on the situation in the eight southwest states, the focus of discussion was on Lizhou. They were extremely worried about the situation in Lizhou and worried that the Litian Witch God would not be able to hold on for long.

“Once the Litian Witch God is destroyed, I’m afraid our Ancient Witch God Alliance will be next.”

“Not just your Ancient Witch God Alliance, Dachang’s power in Lizhou has been consolidated. The eight states in the southwest have been connected into a monolith, and the entire southwest will change.”

"indeed"

In [Luo Guixiang], a group of demonic bosses were in panic. You said something and I complained, and their morale fell to the bottom.

Chu Chen was secretly happy to see it and was in a good mood.

He can be considered to have a share of the credit here. If everything goes well, he may very well be the person who "changed the sky in the southwest."

 Having stirred up a storm with one hand gave him a sense of accomplishment.

However, his joy did not last long. As he watched the demons discuss, his expression soon changed drastically.

There is no other reason. When everyone’s morale was at its lowest and most pessimistic, Demon Lord Dongji stood up and boosted morale.

“Li Tianwu God will definitely make a comeback in the near future and reverse the situation in one fell swoop.”

 After returning from the [Luogui Conference], Chu Chen sat on the throne of the governor, his brows furrowed. Could it be that Litian Witch God got help from the Demon Court?

Chu Chen was not surprised that Li Tian Witch God colluded with the Demon Court. When he was desperate, he could only seek refuge with the Demon Court. On the other hand, the Demon Court was also willing to help Li Tian Witch God fight with the Celestial Court. They had common interests.

It is expected that both sides will work together.

 The only suspense is how much help the Demon Court can give Li Tianwu God.

The Demon Lord of Dongji keeps saying that Litian Witch God can make a comeback

Chu Chen has known the Demon Lord of the East for many times and knows him very well. When this Demon Lord was at his peak, he was an extremely powerful man who fought with the Dragon King of the East China Sea in the abyss of the East China Sea. His moral conduct and vision were extremely high. He was so confident, which meant that Things are far from simple.

 “It’s not good, Brother Bailu may be in danger!”

Chu Chen immediately thought that the little devil's ear message foreshadowed the impending disaster of the "White Deer Immortal".

 Immediately, without any delay, he took out the [Lizhou Supervision Order] and contacted the envoy of the Demon Academy, "Great Elder Chongxu".

 After about ten breaths.

Chu Chen's expression changed slightly, and he went out without saying a word.

“Senior brother, why did you come out so quickly?”

 The little devil saw that his senior brother was in a hurry and greeted him quickly:

 “Brother, what happened?”

 “You crow’s mouth, I’ve been caught by your omen again.”

Chu Chen looked serious and didn't say much. He grabbed the kid, shrank him to the ground and disappeared.

“Senior brother, what a crow’s mouth, I didn’t say anything!”

 “Fellow Taoist Bailu is in danger and his life is in danger!”

 “Ah~ it really comes true!”

In half a stick of incense, Chu Chen rushed thousands of miles and arrived at the Cangzhou Demonic Academy. He went straight to the envoy compound of the Demonic Academy.

At this moment, the courtyard was full of people, with three floors inside and three floors outside. There was even an altar set up, and the scene looked grand.

However, everyone looked extremely downcast at this moment. A group of Taoist priests in cassocks lowered their heads, their faces were full of frustration, and they sighed, and the atmosphere seemed very solemn.

Chu Chen, as the elder of the Immortal Court, is a third-level Immortal Court master. After he arrived, the crowd made way for him and entered the inner courtyard easily.

As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he saw the great elder of Xianting, Taoist Chongxu, Master Huixin and other senior officials of the Demon Academy.

At this moment, both the Great Elder Chongxu and Master Huixin had serious expressions on their faces, and the atmosphere was extremely strange.

 When Chu Chen saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt bad.

“The great elder Chongxu, the master Huixin, the Taoist friend Bailu”

 “Eh~”

 Taoist Chongxu and Master Huixin sighed together.

“Fellow Taoist Bailu ascended to heaven on a deer.”

Chu Chen was shocked.

The White Deer Immortal actually encountered something unexpected!

 “Why is it so sudden and why is the curse so fierce?”

“Hey, we didn’t expect it to be so serious.”

Master Huixin sighed and explained:

"A few days ago, fellow Taoist Bailu said that he had been attacked by a powerful Dharma-phobic attack and that he would be in seclusion for a few days. He was carrying the top magic weapon [Purple Light Pill Heavenly Seal]. We didn't think much about it at first. Until today, fellow Taoist Bailu may have noticed something was wrong. Then report to the Great Elder Chongxu.”

“Yes, I have arranged for a group of fellow Taoists to gain magical powers and help him from the pulpit. Who knows?”

When Elder Chongxu said this, his face turned extremely ugly.

 A high-ranking master of the Celestial Immortal Court who had reached the third level of Dzogchen and had a great chance of being promoted to the second level died under his eyes. This made him feel extremely frustrated, and he was filled with anger under his calm expression.

 “Eh~”

Chu Chen looked gloomy when he heard this.

He had not had much contact with the White Deer Immortal before, but he admired him quite a bit. He was a good and responsible boss and a good comrade. He admired him quite a lot and shared the same goals.

In the past two years, the two have cooperated quite happily, formed a good friendship, and appreciated each other. They can be regarded as gentlemen's friends.

However, no one thought of it.

In just two months, a White Deer Immortal who was about to break through to the second level and was expected to reach the top of the peerless powerhouse suddenly died heroically and died.

Chu Chen was worried and wanted to see him with his own eyes. At that moment, he met with the Great Elder Chongxu. After receiving permission, he entered the clean room of the house without saying a word and met the "White Deer Immortal".

 I saw a pool of blood gathering in the middle of the room.

The White Deer Immortal was lying on the futon, with a bamboo mat covering his figure and face.

Chu Chen possessed [Fire Eyes and Thunder Eyes], and he peeked through the bamboo mat at a glance, and saw the "dead state" of the White Deer Immortal under the mat.

I saw a blood hole as thick as a thigh appeared in his chest. The blood and flesh in the hole were blurred, and the internal organs could not be seen clearly. They were mushy and turned into blood masses. There was no breath of life. There was a painful and ferocious face on his face, which was very disturbing. shocking.

Under normal circumstances, no matter which technique you practice or what school you belong to, if you practice alchemy to the upper third level, your physical body will be extremely powerful. Not to mention the destruction of your internal organs, even if you are decapitated and your body is destroyed, you can still survive.

However, the current White Deer Immortal has no "vitality" at all, his body and soul are both dead, and he is completely dead.

“Great Elder Chongxu, is Taoist Bailu really dead? Not even his true soul is left?”

Chu Chen’s voice was a little unnatural.

 “That’s not true!”

Great Elder Chongxu shook his head: "I saved a remnant of his soul, but that remnant soul is too weak and cannot withstand the fierceness of the world, so I will send him to the underworld as soon as possible."

"That's good!"

Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If he could save a remnant soul and use his merits to create good fortune, the subsequent good fortune would be good.

It's just a pity that in this life's practice, the White Deer Immortal is one step away from perfecting his meritorious deeds, flying into the sky and becoming a god, and achieving the right result.

 After thinking about this, Chu Chen remembered something and couldn't help but ask:

“Great Elder Chongxu, could you please tell me, Taoist friend Bailu, before leaving? What are your unfulfilled wishes?”

Taoist Chongxu nodded slightly:

"He died with resentment this time, and naturally he has mixed feelings in his heart. But what worries him the most is the unfinished business in Lizhou. What he means is that he plans to temporarily hand over the [Purple Light Pill Heavenly Seal] to you for safekeeping and pass it on to you. Secretly teach the Five Thunder Techniques to help him complete the task of slaying witches."

Chu Chen was stunned for a moment, a little stunned.

He never expected that the White Deer Immortal would entrust him with this important task before he died.

 “The poor will not do it.”

 “Eh~”

Taoist Chongxu waved his hand and interrupted Chu Chen’s words:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, you don't have to be impatient. The Litian Witch God seems to have received some kind of help, and his magical powers have greatly increased. I'm afraid you are no match now. What Daoist Daoist Bailu means is to let you close the barrier between life and death, isolate the inside and outside, and cultivate in secret for a few years. At least you will have two I am using my magic power to fight with the Li Tian Witch God."
