Chapter 8, Wood Monkey

The true name of this mountain must be Laifeng Mountain, rather than Fenglaishan. If this is written incorrectly, the meaning will be significantly different

It is said that where there are phoenixes, there are treasures; it is also said that phoenixes do not alight in barren lands. The feng shui of this mountain is exceptionally good! More importantly, this mountain is favorable for nurturing beauty; without mentioning anything else, this place is bound to produce beautiful women.

This is no trivial matter; it concerns the lives and livelihoods of the entire village's young and old, and thus must be approached with caution

The village head's expression turned stern as he exclaimed, "This is unacceptable, what brings you here!"

With a single palm strike, a surge of blood energy shot out over ten feet, striking the back of the vengeful spirit. It barely had time to let out a mournful cry before it dissipated completely

Although this thing looks ugly and strange, it is quite timid. The most important thing is that it has great strength. Liu Yi shouted, "Come here and help me move this stone!"

"Father! How are you?" asked Zhao Hu, the village head's son, cautiously.

Although the consumption was enormous, in the end, a life was saved. This act of saving a life is indeed no exaggeration

At this moment, Liu Yi had no mood to respond. Ren was softly walking towards the village.

Moreover, the power of this summoning has not yet been formally engaged by oneself. It is only after he ascends to divinity that the true potential of this summoning can be fully realized

Fortunately, he had just left for less than half an hour when some villagers came looking for him with torches. It was because the village head had not returned, causing concern among the villagers, so five or six young men came with torches to search for him

Liu Yi felt relaxed and joyful, surrounded by a thick layer of mist, as if he were wearing a heavy garment, impervious to the night breeze. The once frightening sound of the rustling pine trees around him also became less intimidating.

These things are originally more inclined to be submissive to the soft and fearful of the hard

The winding yellow stream below is the vein of the earth, flowing around this mountain and nourishing its terrain. Indeed, it is a fine place, and I have inadvertently found myself in such a wonderful location.

Another person named Han Bin, who is the leader among the young people, smiled and said: "Uncle Zhao, Xiao Hu is also worried about you. That is why he asked us to come along!"

As soon as they left the temple, those wild spirits had already been frightened away. For the time being, there is no fear of any fortune-telling dangers.

Although there are still some dangers, when five or six strong young men gather together, their vitality is abundant, and generally, ghostly entities do not dare to provoke them

However, one can barely be considered a ghost or deity, and in this desolate mountain wilderness, the art of divination holds little efficacy

Speaking, I walked down the mountain. The moon was pale, the wind was clear, and the pine smoke howled.

I have vaguely come into contact with some information; this summoning consists of a total of nine levels. What I possess is the lowest level of summoning.

What nonsense are you talking about! That is food for the deities; for a mortal like you to have the chance to eat it even once in your lifetime is already a blessing from your ancestors' good deeds, and a sign of the deities' kindness. How dare you complain about not being full?

Uncle Zhao said, where are we complaining? It's just a pity that we won't be able to eat such good food in the future! Han Bin said with a playful smile

What worries him is that a considerable amount of money has been spent, and now only a little over 700 yuan remains. If all the money is spent, how can he still appear to possess any extraordinary qualities? How can he expect others to believe in and worship him?

The divine power has burned out, and Liu Yi revealed a strange expression. It is no wonder that this place is called Wind Coming Mountain, as below in the village, one can see the arrival of the phoenix.

For instance, the art of dream invasion cannot be performed too far from the dreamer, as it must not exceed a distance of 2 miles. The consumption of spiritual communication techniques is exceedingly daunting, and with my current financial situation, I can hardly afford to engage in such practices.

A trace of divine power was ignited, prompting Liu Yi to immediately employ the art of divination. He observed the undulating mountain range, from which a stream of pure energy surged forth. He also noticed a yellow current beneath the ground, winding and twisting like a river, seemingly in motion.

The troubled Liu Yi suddenly thought, yes, this person can read fortunes. I wonder if other things can be read as well

The village head wore a slight smile: "I was pondering whether to invite this deity back to serve as our village's god of the community"

Whether it is the art of divination, the technique of entering dreams, or spiritual communication, all of these are rather rudimentary spells. Moreover, they come with various limitations

Zhao Huhu, with a robust and lively appearance, is only about 8 or 9 years old. However, he looks like a child of around 10 years old in stature. At this moment, when his father scolded him, he shrank his head in fear and did not dare to speak further

Slowly walking back to the temple gate, Liu Yi returned to the statue. There, he had just collapsed softly onto the ground, his entire body and face turning pale, as his vital energy and blood had been greatly depleted

Liu Yi is in a similar situation; the divine power he accumulated today has also been completely exhausted. Even this newly established Daoist temple is showing signs of becoming ethereal for the time being

Or perhaps possessing supernatural powers, one could unearth buried gold, silver, and jewels from the ground. However, it is impossible to conjure up this delicious food out of thin air; it must have undergone considerable effort to be obtained, making it truly hard-earned

The talisman of Tai Xiao Yang Tian has been summoned! Liu Yi had just sensed the name of the talisman in his sea of consciousness and couldn't help but let out a sigh

The remaining remnants of the incense and willpower have all been summoned and refined, transforming into drops of white divine power. Upon calculation, there are only three drops left.

The village head listened and then fell silent. When one's own child is filial, as parents, one naturally could not ask for more. The earlier reprimand was merely an expression of concern.

Even someone as knowledgeable and experienced as the village head would never have imagined that Liu Yi would have a gigantic supermarket by his side

The mottled moon fell through the gaps in the trees, exuding an indescribable sense of tranquil beauty

This scene frightened the other vengeful spirits even more, causing them to scatter in a panic, each fleeing in different directions without daring to linger for even a moment

The village chief reprimanded several young men, yet he understood in his heart that even the deities could not conjure anything out of thin air

However, Liu Yi did not worry too much. He was well aware that most of the villagers behind the mountain had already been won over by him. In the future, there would be no shortage of incense offerings

A few young people were quite excited: "Uncle Zhao, that mountain spirit is truly amazing. I have never eaten anything so delicious in my entire life... Tsk tsk, it's just a bit too little, I can't get full!"

A few young people hesitated and said, "Our village is so small, can it support its own deity?"

Liu Yi quickly arrived beneath a rather oddly shaped large pine tree, where a piece of blue stone the size of a human head left him at a loss, unable to move it no matter what he tried

The most practical skill is actually physiognomy. If one is a human being, then with this ability alone, one can read fortunes and tell fortunes for others.

After a long while, he stood up with a bitter smile and said: "Thank you for the divine mercy that saved my life!"

Just as Liu Yizheng was about to try using a bit more of his energy to see if he could move the stone, there was a commotion nearby. A bizarre-looking wood spirit, resembling a withered tree, peeked over curiously.

This divine power can sustain his existence for three days, and of course, it can also allow him to cast spells such as the Dream Entry technique three times

Upon hearing this, the wood spirit obediently came over to help move the stone. Beneath it, there was a package wrapped in oilcloth.
