Chapter 123: Taoist Sect, Immortal Family! Searching for the Evil God
Chu Chaoran, a living immortal in this world, has already attained the Way of Pure Yang Wuji.

In the Dharma-Ending Age, for those who practice Taoism, they are like mountains, stars, oceans, and living immortals.

One can imagine how important the status of such a disciple is.

However, the name Zhang Fan seemed extremely unfamiliar to everyone.

If it hadn’t come from Xuanjizi’s mouth, with the title of Chaoran disciple, he would probably just be regarded as a liar.

“A disciple of Master Chaoran?”

“He is actually the disciple of Master Chaoran?”

There was an uproar in the hall, and everyone’s eyes fell on Zhang Fan, revealing three parts curiosity and seven parts surprise.

“Master Chu’s disciple?” Hua Yixun’s eyes were fixed as he stared at Zhang Fan, looking him up and down as if he wanted to see through him.

“Impossible, Chao Ran Zhenren’s last disciple is Xia Weisheng…”

At this moment, Gu Jingqiu couldn’t help but lost his voice.

“presumptuous.”

Before he finished speaking, Hua Yixun shouted loudly and shot a sharp look at him, causing the somewhat out-of-control Gu Jingqiu to shut up immediately.

His remarks were tantamount to questioning Xuanjizi, which was impolite as a disciple of Laoshan.

“I can’t believe it… I can’t believe it…”

Hua Yixun spoke softly, his eyes never moving away from Zhang Fan for even a moment.

“Since he is Master Chu’s disciple, he must be a startling dragon among men.”

Hua Yixun also knew that the ten famous Taoist mountains in the world had disciples who were famous, such as Xia Weisheng of Zhenwu Mountain, An Wuyang of Zhongnan Mountain, Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang of Laojun Mountain, as well as unknown descendants who were being trained in secret.

Just like their Laoshan, there are also disciples who are in the mysterious gate and have not yet gained fame in the world.

“You’ve made a fool of yourself.”

Jiang Hu came close to Zhang Fan and whispered softly.

At that moment, Zhang Fan immediately became the focus of the whole audience. It was rare to receive such attention in such an occasion.

“Is that showing my face?” Zhang Fan rolled his eyes and subconsciously looked at Xuanjizi who was high above him.

He knew that the reason why everyone cared so much was not because of him, but because of Chu Chaoran.

However, Zhang Fan couldn’t understand why Xuanjizi wanted him to be the focus of everyone’s attention in such an occasion. The introduction just now seemed a little too obvious.

“Open the can, please print!”

At this moment, Xuanjizi waved the whisk in his hand, and a light shout sounded, drawing everyone’s thoughts over.

To whisk the dust is to brush away the rolling red dust, to open the altar, to seek the true self, to reach the heaven and smell the immortal fruit.

hum…

The bells rang and incense smoke curled up. On the four altars, the Taoists led by Zhong Changming made seals with their hands and chanted something. Long flames burned in front of them, emitting an everlasting glow.

At the same time, an old earthenware jar was carried to Xuanjizi by two little Taoist boys.

hum…

Xuanjizi snapped his fingers, and a flame jumped out from the red candle and landed on the talisman sealed at the mouth of the old earthen jar.

“The Supreme One established the teaching and preached the Dharma, and all living beings heard the sound of the Dharma. Tonight, I am able to enter this door, and the light of the Southern Star and the Northern Dipper will be bright…”

Xuanjizi was muttering something, and suddenly, a nameless wind blew up in the hall, blowing the precious candles and shaking the faint fragrance. Some golden light appeared, and a treasure box opened.

hum…

The treasure box in front of Xuanjizi opened, and an ancient golden seal appeared in front of everyone. It was the size of a palm, round and shining with restrained golden light. There were traces of time on the surface, and a sense of vicissitudes rose suddenly.

“The Dragon and Tiger Seal… Is this the [Mighty Spiritual Demon-Suppressing Golden Seal] that the Zhang family of Dragon and Tiger gave to Xuanmiao Temple back then?”

Hua Yixun’s eyes suddenly lit up. As a Taoist priest from Mount Laoshan, he had naturally heard of the reputation of the Longhu Mountain seal, and he had heard even more about the [Weiling Demon-Suppressing Golden Seal] of Xuanmiao Temple.

At this moment, he could feel that there seemed to be an unknown energy flowing around the ancient seal, pulling the energy in the entire hall. The flickering candlelight seemed to be heading in the same direction, and the rising incense was surging towards the same place.

“The Golden Seal of the Mighty Spirit to Suppress Demons… that is a seal from Mount Longhu.”

“The Taoist magic weapon, the Dragon-Tiger Seal, is known to be the best… I don’t know how many Wuwei monsters were killed and how many mountain and sea monsters were suppressed in the nine times of [Destroying Mountains and Temples].

“The Zhang family of Mount Longhu is known as the main branch of Taoism and a family of immortals… After the great calamity of Taoism eighty years ago, this lineage has become extinct. I never thought that I would be able to see the Dragon-Tiger Seal in my lifetime.”

Different voices sounded in everyone’s hearts, and their burning gazes fell on the palm-sized golden seal.

It is a coincidence that for everyone standing in this hall today, being able to see this golden seal is fate and good fortune.

At this moment, even Zhang Fan’s eyes were fixed on the golden seal.

He suddenly had an inspiration, and for some reason, he felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had met someone again after a long separation, and he was overjoyed.

“In the past two thousand years, the Zhang family of Mount Longhu has only refined sixty-three Dharma seals in addition to the five [Ancestor Seals]. They are engraved with the Decree of the Heavenly Law and the Imperial Edict of the Supreme Lord Laozi.”

Gu Jingqiu clenched his hands tightly and stared at the golden seal. His mind was in turmoil and he could hardly control himself.

Since ancient times, among the ten Taoists in the world, nine were surnamed Zhang and one was surnamed Li.

The Zhang here refers to the Zhang from Longhu Mountain.

For all the Taoists in the world, it was a mountain that could not be ignored and insurmountable, and it had been weighing on the world for nearly two thousand years.

The Tao originates from the prenatal, but thrives from dragons and tigers. This lineage is unparalleled in the world.

However, it has been eighty years since the great catastrophe of Taoism, and the Longhu Zhang family has ceased to be a family of worshippers. To today’s young people, this surname is more like a legend, illusory and unknowable.

Rumble…

At this moment, a loud noise came from outside the hall, accompanied by a cold and eerie aura.

“Demon spirit!?”

“How dare you, a daring monster, commit atrocities in Xuanmiao Temple!?”

Everyone was shocked. They never expected that, with so many masters gathered in the temple tonight to ask for the seal and refine their spirits, there was still a monster who dared to disturb them. He was simply asking for his own life.

“Stone Guardian? It’s his aura…”

Sui Chunsheng and Zhan Xinyue looked at each other and felt that the surging evil spirit was extremely familiar. It was clearly the stone gecko that had blocked them that night.

“Besides him… there is another demonic aura that seems even more powerful.” Jiang Hu frowned and said in a deep voice.

“Thank you, little friend Lao Hua.”

Xuanjizi looked normal, as if everything was as expected. Asking for the seal to refine the spirit was no trivial matter, so how could it be smooth sailing? How could there be no disaster?

“It is our duty to eliminate demons and defend the Way!”

Hua Yixun nodded, took a step forward, causing a strong wind to sweep him out, and then he walked out of the temple. At the same time, several masters from Xuanmiao Temple also followed him out.

Zhang Fan remained calm and felt that the two evil spirits outside the palace gate did not stay but fled in different directions at the first moment.

Rumble…

At this moment, the old earthenware jar on the altar suddenly shook violently. Cracks appeared on the surface, and an indescribable horrible aura was about to emerge, as if something was about to come out of it.

hum…

At this moment, Xuanjizi formed seals with his hands, stepped on the Tiangang, and muttered something…

A loud chant of the name of Tiandu brought the seal to life. The luster on the surface of the ancient golden seal seemed to become more condensed. If one used one’s primordial spirit to observe it, one could see the brilliant golden light, like gushing spring water, constantly pouring into the dilapidated earthenware jar.

Rumble…

At this moment, there was a strange wave in the hall and everything seemed to disappear.

“This is……”

Zhang Fan’s heart was shaken, and he felt his soul leaving his body and arriving in a mysterious realm. In front of him were towering mountains, leisurely clouds, and singing white cranes.

“Outdoor scene!?”

“Is this an exterior scene?”

“The Dragon and Tiger Seal is indeed mysterious and unpredictable. It can actually move our souls and enter the illusion of the outer scene?”

At this time, not only Zhang Fan, Gu Jingqiu, Jiang Hulu, Sui Chunsheng, Zhan Xinyue… even Xuan Jizi’s soul all entered this strange scene.

The Mighty Golden Seal for Suppressing Demons is a dragon-tiger magic seal that is extremely mysterious and best at suppressing demons.

What is the devil?
All images are false, created by the consciousness. If the mind is not moved, seeing is as if not seeing, and they will naturally disappear. There is no realm that can be demonized.

When thoughts grow, great demons will be born.

“Is this…Longhu Mountain?”

In the hazy fog, Xuanjizi looked at the towering mountains in front of him with a dazed look and murmured softly.

The Wei Ling Golden Seal for Suppressing Demons has been hidden in Xuanmiao Temple for a hundred years, but such a thing has never happened before. Xuansheng entered the outer world and suddenly saw dragons and tigers.

clang… clang… clang…

At this moment, a faint bell sounded, and after a while, the souls looked up and saw an old and dilapidated Taoist temple emerging before their eyes in the mist.

The Taoist temple was desolate and dilapidated, with the door plaque collapsed. On the altar inside the temple was a huge seal.

“The Golden Seal of Wei Ling to Suppress Demons!?”

Everyone was astonished. The golden seal enshrined on the altar was huge, more than three meters high, but it had turned to stone and was dull and dilapidated, with mottled cracks visible everywhere.

clang… clang… clang…

The deafening sound of the bell became louder and louder, echoing between heaven and earth and resounding through the mountains and rivers.

Suddenly, the candles in front of the altar lit up suddenly, but there was no incense burning in the cauldron.

“The Dharma seal has manifested itself, and one should receive incense.”

At this moment, hazy mist surged, and a spirit was about to come out, muttering something, and walked to the altar. He picked up the incense, approached the candle, and was about to light it for worship.

“This is Gu Jingqiu… Gu Jingqiu from Mount Laoshan. His aura is pure and natural, with a faint glow of moonlight. This is the Golden Toad Gazing at the Moon technique of Mount Laoshan.”

Someone whispered, recognizing the spirit.

At this moment, everyone was deeply immersed in the external scene, their souls were like falling into a hazy mist, and when they saw each other, it was like a blur. They couldn’t see the truth, but they could still distinguish their origins from their breath.

call……

A strange thing happened. Gu Jingqiu couldn’t light the incense in his hand no matter what he did. The flickering flame seemed like a decoration.

“The incense is cut off… The incense is cut off… Is it possible that we can’t burn this incense and offer this seal!?”

A spirit jumped out, picked up the incense, moved close to the candle, and tried to light it.

“Let’s try too.”

One after another, souls jumped out and followed suit, picking up the incense and lighting it to worship.

However, the incense in his hand seemed unable to be lit, and there was no reaction at all in the firelight.

“It’s really the end of the incense…”

“The Zhang family of Mount Longhu has ceased to worship this statue… This seal is destined to be destroyed in the world without sacrifice.”

“This is fate, this is God’s will… The Dragon and Tiger Zhang family has been around for two thousand years, but now it has finally come to an end.”

Everyone was murmuring softly, as if they had realized something, as if they had glimpsed the secret of the great Dao, that everything was predestined.

Rumble…

At this moment, a violent vibration came from the altar, and layers of stone shells fell off the surface of the huge golden seal. Thousands of golden lights shot up into the sky, breaking through the dome of the ancient Taoist temple and rushing straight into the sky.

“What…what’s going on!?”

“what happened!?”

“The golden seal… the mighty golden seal for suppressing demons… has been inspired…”

Surprised roars resounded in front of the altar, golden light shone, thousands of streams of light flowed, and the power was powerful enough to suppress demons…

Under the terrifying pressure, the souls could no longer hold on and were shattered one after another, being squeezed out of the external scene.

At this time, in front of the altar, hazy mist was surging, and there was clearly a spirit standing there. He was holding incense in his hand, and there was actually flames, and the incense was lit.

“Longhu Mountain Zhang Family…”

Suddenly, a low and hoarse voice sounded faintly, echoing in front of the ancient and deserted altar.

“As expected of you, the Master of Xuanmiao Temple… Even the mighty golden seal of demon suppression cannot suppress your soul…”

In front of the altar, Zhang Fan’s soul held incense in his hand, bowed respectfully to the revived huge golden seal, and then inserted it into the cauldron.

hum…

A huge golden seal rose into the air, its power becoming more and more powerful. The golden light floated up to the sky, startling the white clouds and shaking the earth.

“He is indeed the blood of the Dragon and Tiger Zhang family… I know Chu Chaoran’s status. There must be something fishy about him accepting a disciple…”

Xuanjizi’s voice was heavy, like the sound of swords clashing, with a hint of doubt amidst the shock.

He could not have imagined that eighty years had passed since the great calamity in Taoism, and yet the bloodline of the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain was still not extinct in this world. When the Wei Ling Fa Yin appeared outside, there were incense sticks burning in the immortal mountain.

“Impossible… This shouldn’t be the case… This lineage should have been extinct… How did you…” Xuanjizi was confused and asked Zhang Fan’s soul.

“I do not know either.”

Zhang Fan shook his head. He was in the outdoor scene, and although all the mysterious things he experienced were illusions, they also confirmed his guess that their family really had an inexplicable relationship with Longhu Mountain.

But at the moment, he didn’t have the energy to think about these things, as there were more important things to do.

call……

At this moment, Zhang Fan leaped up onto the altar. Endless golden light seemed to cover his body. He formed seals with his hands and muttered something. The Mighty Spiritual Demon-Suppressing Golden Seal was summoned and suspended in the air, floating three feet above his head. Great power surged and poured into Zhang Fan’s body.

At this moment, he seemed to be assisted by God.

“As expected of the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain. They can activate the seal with just a thought.” Xuanjizi’s eyes flickered.

At this moment, Zhang Fan slapped his forehead, and his soul became like a flame from the sky, shining brightly. A shadow inside him jumped, and it seemed as if there was a different Zhang Fan.

“This is……”

“Three corpses guarding life, the soul-dividing technique!?”

Xuanjizi’s eyes widened, he could not believe what he saw.

“You…what are you going to do?”
