Rebirth of the Totem Pole, I became a taboo

Chapter 334: Tortoise Shell Touches the Road

What is the relationship between Xia Wanrong and Chen Yao?
Yin Li didn’t understand the reason behind this, he only knew what he saw.

The pet on Chen Yao’s shoulder is so close to Xia Wanrong. Could it be that the old man Xia Longhu has already had contact with Chen Yao and established a good relationship with him?

Thinking of this, Yin Li directly attributed the opportunity for Xia Longhu to enter the Touching Dao Realm to Chen Yao.

“Luckily I called this person this time. If I really only relied on Xia Longhu’s half-baked skills, I’m afraid I would be wiped out.”

When Yin Li thought about this, a smile appeared on his face even more.

“Yin Li thanks you for coming. Please come with me to have a rest.”

“No need, just start.”

Chen Yao said.

Yin Li was originally anxious, but he couldn’t be anxious. When he heard Chen Yao say this, he felt relieved.

“As you wish.”

As he spoke, Yin Li led the way in front, heading towards the formation used this time.

Xia Longhu and Chen Yao were half a step behind.

Xia Wanrong was originally hugging Mingli to reminisce about the past, but when Chen Yao left, Mingli pointed at Chen Yao and said to Xia Wanrong, “Follow me.”

Looking at Chen Yao’s back, Xia Wanrong also had a strange look in her eyes.

She had never imagined that handing over Mingli would have such a result.

Originally, she thought that after Mingli was handed over, the same fate would befall him as it was in the hands of the ancestor, or even that Mingli would no longer exist in this world.

But now, she doesn’t think so.

“Mingli, what kind of existence is he?”

Xia Wanrong asked in a low voice.

Mingli glanced at Xia Wanrong, found a comfortable position in her arms, and said, “Brutal, terrifying, evil, dark, cunning…”

A bunch of nouns popped out of Mingli’s mouth, which not only stunned Xia Wanrong, but also Xia Chengtian, Xia Longhu, Yin Li and others in front of him, their bodies stiffened slightly.

But when they saw that Chen Yao had no reaction, they pretended they heard nothing and continued to move forward.

Xia Wanrong was also shocked at first, but after seeing Chen Yao’s unresponsive behavior, she looked at Mingli with a strange look.

“You haven’t changed.”

Xia Wanrong’s eyes curved and she said to Mingli with a smile.

Obviously, he didn’t believe what Mingli said.

The group walked all the way to a forbidden area in the Great Shang Imperial City and stopped.

This forbidden area was originally set up for Yin Li. No one else can enter without being summoned.

But at this moment, the forbidden area has changed its appearance. The original houses have been demolished, and a ten-foot-high altar has been built in the center of the forbidden area. On the altar is a complete tortoise shell the size of two palms.

After Chen Yao’s mind swept across the tortoise shell, he was a little surprised.

This is a spiritual object, which is better than those obtained by Chen Yao. It also contains things similar to the Taoist essence in the Nether Lizard Seal and the White Tiger Seal.

If it were in the past, if Chen Yao saw this spiritual object, he might have taken it directly.

But now, he doesn’t have much demand for spiritual objects.

Moreover, this spiritual tortoise shell was placed here obviously for Yin Li to use.

“Sir, this is where I hit the road this time.”

Yin Li bowed to Chen Yao.

“What path are you taking?”

Chen Yao asked.

Yin Li smiled.

“Since the founding of the Shang Dynasty, we have actually been following the same path, the path of divination. However, our descendants are not talented enough to reproduce the glory of the founding ruler, so we can only work hard on the path of warriors.”

When Yin Li said this, Xia Longhu beside him became unhappy.

“What? Are you saying that the martial arts are inferior to your divination skills?”

Yin Li glanced at Xia Longhu and smiled, “There is no comparison between the two.”

“Nothing comparable?”

Xia Longhu laughed out of anger. Although he had known that this old guy was a foul-mouthed person, he was still mad at him.

“If there is no comparison, why would your father be my father’s sworn brother?”

The corner of Yin Li’s mouth twitched. The current ruler of Da Shang and the people of Ji family beside him lowered their heads. Xia Chengtian on the side showed a smile.

The founding monarch of Da Xia was a dominant figure in that era. Not to mention the ruler of Da Shang, even the rulers of other countries, even the older ones, did not dare to call him their brother.

Only the ruler of the Great Shang Kingdom is qualified to be favored.

“Humph, that’s based on age. If a fight really breaks out, your father won’t be able to touch my father at all.”

“Oh, do you really think that you are invincible just because you have mastered the art of divination? My father is just letting your father down. There is a gap between different ways. Your father has only mastered the basics at best. No matter how powerful he is, my father can break him with force.”

Yin Li was a little annoyed by what Xia Longhu said.

“Hmph, I’m too lazy to talk to you. Let’s talk about it after I become a Taoist!”

After Yin Li finished speaking, he looked at Chen Yao.

“After that, I hope you can help me in times of crisis. Whether it will succeed or not, I can perform a great divination for you.”

Yin Li did not explain what the great divination was and walked straight towards the altar.

On the contrary, Xia Longhu’s expression changed after hearing the three words “great divination”.

Not everyone can perform the Great Divination. The previously outstanding national teacher of the Great Xia Kingdom only used the Great Divination halfway, and died after he divined the world-destroying evil.

In Yin Li’s situation, if he touched the Tao, it would be fine, the great divination would not take his life.

But if he fails to touch the Tao, after a great divination, it is estimated that he will not live long.

So after hearing Yin Li’s words, Xia Longhu knew that the other party was fighting to the death this time.

If I fail, I probably won’t want to continue living.

Sighing in his heart, Xia Longhu also understood Yin Li’s thoughts.

I have lived for so many years just to be able to touch the Tao and reach the level of my parents.

It would have been fine if I had never had the chance to touch it, but now I have the chance. If I still cannot touch it successfully, then I will be doomed to not be able to restore the glory of my ancestors.

Instead of this, it’s better to just end it.

If Xia Longhu had not succeeded in reaching the Dao at that time, he might have chosen a similar method as Yin Li and ended his life in the end.

Sighing in his heart, Xia Longhu looked at Yin Li who had already arrived at the altar.

If possible, He would naturally take action.

But I’m afraid that if He takes action, the result will be the same.

Thinking of this, He looked at Chen Yao beside him and speculated in his heart: “His words should be more reliable.”

Just when Xia Longhu and others were having different thoughts, Yin Li had already activated the formation on the altar.

The spiritual crystals in the Da Shang treasury turned into spiritual energy and rushed into the formation as if they were free. Lines of the formation were activated, and the entire formation began to operate slowly.

At a certain moment, all the spiritual energy in the formation gathered on the altar.

The tortoise shell was wrapped in spiritual energy and slowly floated and rotated.

At the same time, wisps of indescribable aura emanated from the tortoise shell and went towards Yin Li.

The moment the energy appeared, the expressions of Chen Yao and Xia Longhu changed slightly.

“here we go.”

Seeing the energy being absorbed by Yin Li, Xia Longhu breathed a sigh of relief.

He did not doubt Yin Li’s talent.

In the past, the path to ascension was blocked only because there was no way to obtain this energy.

Now with the help of the formation, Yin Li will naturally be much more at ease.

All Yin Li needs to do is wait for him to comprehend the Dao contained in that energy before he can be ready for the baptism of thunder.

As time passed, the aura around Yin Li grew stronger and stronger, and the tortoise shell became darker and darker.

Chen Yao had been looking at the turtle shell and making estimates in his mind.

He would not let Yin Li destroy the tortoise shell. If the other party could not touch the Tao before the tortoise shell was damaged, then he would take action.

After all, there are not many things like the Nether Lizard Seal and the Turtle Shell.

Chen Yao can completely use this to touch the Tao, so that he can save nearly 800,000 fires of faith! Therefore, even if he uses the fire of faith to help Yin Li, Chen Yao does not think it will be a loss.

time flies.

Xia Longhu looked at the increasingly fragile turtle shell and his brows furrowed.

The situation is not good.

According to his idea, the difficulty for Yin Li to touch the Dao lies in the subsequent thunder tribulation, and whether he can withstand the thunder tribulation is the key.

But now Yin Li was stuck at the first step.

It seems that Yin Li has no way of reaching the level of thunder tribulation.

“How could this be?”

Xia Longhu was puzzled.

When he was alive, his father told him that Yin Li’s talent was superior to his, and if she could attain enlightenment in the future, it would be earlier than him.

Xia Longhu believed what his father said, but what is happening now?

What Xia Longhu didn’t know was that Yin Li’s heart was in turmoil.

After Yin Li came into contact with the energy in the tortoise shell, countless complicated information flooded into his mind.

This information included his experiences as a god after his death thousands of years ago, as well as his experiences with his father when he was alive. All of these made him unable to extricate himself.

Despite this, Yin Li still knew what he had to do.

But just when Yin Li was trying to get away from the information, a new piece of information enveloped him.

This time it is no longer information about the past, but information about the future.

Yin Li couldn’t resist his curiosity about the future after all, and tried to find out about the information about the future.

He thought he could extricate himself from it, but he was wrong.

There are countless possibilities in the future. Every time Yin Li looks at one more possibility, he becomes more confused. Every time he becomes more confused, he loses a chance of success.

But he just couldn’t resist the urge to look into the future.

This is probably the inner demon of divination.

Who can resist a peek into the future?

So, Yin Li fell.

Just when the energy in the tortoise shell was about to disappear, Yin Li regained consciousness, but he was powerless.

Hey ~
With a sigh, Yin Li knew that he had failed.

After all, He could not reach His father’s level.

Just when the aura around Yin Li’s consciousness was about to disappear, a flash of fire appeared.

The flames acted like fuel, causing the little remaining energy to surge.

Yin Li was stunned for a moment. Although he didn’t know why, he still began to comprehend.

Because he had fallen into despair once, Yin Li was now in a semi-conscious state, and those confusing information could hardly disturb him anymore.

Even though he was tempted by the information from the future, he could no longer resist reading it.

It was unknown how much time had passed before Yin Li’s real body opened his eyes.

Looking up, He saw the calamity clouds slowly gathering above His head.

“Done?”

Yin Li looked at the tortoise shell in front of him, then looked towards Xia Longhu’s direction.

He wanted to tell Xia Longhu that he had succeeded, and he wanted to show off.

But Xia Longhu didn’t even look at him, but just stared at Chen Yao blankly.

Thinking that Xia Longhu didn’t want to be provoked by him, Yin Li curled up the corners of his mouth.

Immediately, He flew into the air with his tortoise shell. Next, it was time to resist the thunder.

Although the power of the thunder is strong, He feels that he can still withstand it.

At worst, I can just take a few years to recover.

Just as Yin Li was thinking this, the calamity clouds in the sky had already gathered successfully.

It was at this time that He felt something was wrong.

Why is the pressure of this calamity cloud so strong?

Turning his head, he looked at Xia Longhu.

At this time, Xia Longhu had the same expression as Him.

At this moment, the first thunderbolt struck.

Looking at the purple lightning, Yin Li’s face turned pale.

“Can this be blocked?”

Even though he had already sacrificed the tortoise shell, Yin Li still had no confidence at all.

But this is just the first wave!

At this moment, a figure appeared next to the turtle shell and reached out to take the turtle shell away.

Looking at that figure, despair appeared on Yin Li’s face.

A thunderstorm cannot be resisted by just a large number of people!
The original thunder was enough to make Yin Li’s scalp tingle, and now, with one more person, it was unknown how much the power of the thunder would increase.

In this situation, He couldn’t imagine how He could survive.

“They say that if you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening, but I died before dawn, huh…”

Yin Li smiled bitterly and gave up struggling.

At this moment, the thunder that was about to strike was blocked by Chen Yao above.

But Yin Li was not happy at all.

Because he knew what was coming.

“Sir, go ahead. If you leave, I will be the only one to be struck to death. The lightning will not chase you.”

Yin Li gave Chen Yao a wry smile, but he did not get a response from Chen Yao.

Boom!

The second wave of thunder strikes!
Looking at the three bolts of lightning, Yin Li closed his eyes.

After a long time, he did not feel the thunder approaching, and opened his eyes in confusion.

Then, he saw the golden sword blocking Chen Yao’s head.

Boom!

The third wave of nine thunderbolts containing purple Taoist essence struck down.

The golden sword flew up and slashed across, and the thunder and the sword dissipated together.

The hope that had originally brightened up in Yin Li’s heart dimmed again.

But at this moment, he heard a voice from above.

“The thunder is getting stronger and stronger…”

Getting stronger?

What do you mean?
Just when Yin Li was confused, the fourth wave of thunder struck down.

This time, a sky-covering flame ignited, which not only turned his face red, but also the entire Dashang Imperial City red.

The calamity clouds in the sky were also obscured by the flames.

Just when Yin Li was shocked by Chen Yao’s strength, the next scene made him unable to close his mouth anymore.

The flame, like a sky curtain, actually went straight into the sky.

Then, countless angry roars sounded above the fire cloud, and finally ended in a loud bang.

The flames dissipated, and along with them, the calamity cloud in the sky dissipated as well.

The calamity cloud was blown away!

Can the calamity cloud be blown away?
Both Xia Longhu and Yin Li had an idea at this time.

“Father, I never taught you this!”
