Chapter 34 Moon Bath

It is said that in ancient times, demons were still the weakest existence. They slowly cultivate their own spirits by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. Over time, they found that the brilliance of the moon is most suitable for them to practice. In the place with the strongest moonlight, the most powerful soul can often be born. Therefore, there is such a rumor among demons that the moon is the source of their energy.

Demons and ghosts are yin objects, and the cultivation methods of ghosts and demons are almost the same, so ghosts and demons generally worship the moon. Every 500 years, the two ethnic groups hold a grand rally to celebrate the moon on the fullest day of the year. On this day, it will also be decided by God to choose a lucky person to get the bath of the moon.

However, although this ceremony is very grand, it is not attractive to those goblins who have reached a high level of strength. Therefore, the demons and monsters who often participate in the sacrifice of the moon are weak and have poor talent. They expect to be bathed in the moon before they are expected to become strong people in the clan.

Li Mu and his party don't know whether they are lucky or bad. As soon as I entered the mountain, I met a grand ceremony rarely seen in 500 years. But unfortunately, they found that they were already in the ranks of thousands of demons. Once there was a slight abnormal movement, they would be attacked by a group of demons.

Although these demons and monsters are not deep, the weakness is applied by tens of thousands of spells, and it is by no means what their young people can resist. Fortunately, the moon sacrifice ceremony has begun, and the goblins are crazy about the moon sacrifice ceremony, and no one pays attention to them.

In addition to the previous monsters, there were many goblins and ghosts coming from all directions. Li Mu and his party stood among the monsters, advancing and retreating.

While hesitating, suddenly a demon hurried past them, and then stopped and looked at them curiously.

Li Mu and others thought that this demon had found themselves, so they immediately became vigilant and secretly thought about the law one by one, and waited for it to solve it secretly.

This demon's face can be seen in the green ghost fire. Two sharp fangs are exposed, but one person's face has two rows of tentacles, and its original form can't be seen.

It came slowly, but did not know that it was getting closer and closer to death. The cheers in the distance seemed to be a little funny, sending the last journey for their companions.

"Oh, isn't this the Great Sage? You're here too!" The monster walked to Li Mu and asked curiously. But from his words, there was obvious contempt. This great saint seems to have become the biggest derogatory.

Li Mu was stunned. He didn't expect that this person actually knew him. After searching in his mind for a long time, he remembered and said, "Are you a gopher spirit?" In order not to reveal his identity, Li Mu had to get close to him. It turned out that it was not someone else, but one of the demon kings who went to Huaguo Mountain to defect to Sun Monkey. However, his talent is limited, and his strength is the weakest among the demon kings.

The gopher spirit smiled and said, "I didn't expect the Great Sage to remember me." Seeing that Xiao Rang and others were holding swords in their hands, he was stunned and asked, "Who are these?" At this time, it also increased its vigilance and took a step back without leaving a trace.

Li Mu hurriedly said, "They are all my friends. I heard that there is a grand ceremony here, so let's join in the fun."

The gopher spirit was a little relieved and no longer explored the where these people came from. He thought how strong Li Mu's friends would be, and they were so young that they were probably just-debut monsters. They came here to try their luck.

The gopher said, "Let's go quickly and don't let others take the lead." At the last moon ceremony, the gopher was still young, and it was not so lucky to get a bath. I participated twice, and this time it was full of confidence.

It walked first. Li Mu looked at Xiao Rang and others, paused and followed.

Xiao Rang, Dugufang and others hesitated. They didn't know why Li Mu knew this monster and seemed to be familiar with it. They clearly heard that the gopher spirit called Li Mu to be the "Great Sage". Isn't it something to do with the Great Sage Qitian?

The story of the eight brothers in Huaguo Mountain is widely spread among the demon clan, but little is known among the immortal clan. They don't know, and it's normal.

Comparing that Xiao Rang and Du Xiang were Li Mu's brothers, they believed in Li Mu and only hesitated for a moment and followed him. What's more, they have no choice at this time.

Dugufang and Zhang Yingsheng were stunned for a while and finally decided to follow them. As for Jiang Yi's still evil curvature on the corners of his mouth, he seems to be very interested in this lively scene.

Along the way, the gopher spirit talked about the earth-shaking war that year, and even his level had to hide and watch. As for the little ones he took, none of them died.

After listening to the words of the gopher spirit, Dugufang was more sure of the relationship between Li Mu and Sun Wukong, and also guessed his relationship with these monsters.

"Li Dasheng, is it true to hear that Sun Dasheng was pressed under the Five elements mountain by the Buddha?" The gopher asked. Although he still called Li Mu to be the Great Sage, the sound has already changed.

Thinking of Sun Wukong, Li Mu was gloomy. Anyway, now that I have no way out, let Dugufang and others know what. He replied, "Yes, the Buddha wants to suppress it for 500 years. But don't worry, I'll find Lao Si and others to find a way. It's just a mountain, and it's still difficult to get us?"

Thinking of Li Mu and several righteous brothers with great skills, the Gopher spirit felt guilty and said quickly, "That's, that's right, several great saints have extraordinary skills. Naturally, this kind of trifle can't stop you."

Li Mujiu followed the gopher spirit to the altar, and with the strength of the gopher spirit, he can only be counted among the demons. So its position is also a little far away.

There are also monsters coming one after another, but the moon ceremony has begun. Just as the dark moon sacrifice (a ghost) who presided over the ceremony was about to come to the stage to announce, suddenly a dark blue aurora flashed on the altar, and the powerful momentum forced people to fall back. It tilts collectively like the wind blowing wheat waves.

The blue light gradually dissipated and turned into a dross figure. A middle-aged man held a very old wine gourd and drank wine. His simple linen clothes hung with some rags, which were obviously damaged in several places. Behind him, he carried an extremely ordinary iron sword, as if it were beaten by a blacksmith in a remote village.

"How can you miss me in such a big scene?" The middle age seemed to be a little drunk, and the lazy voice sounded in everyone's ears.

But such a middle-aged man has a strong spirit. Instead of greatly reducing his appearance, the messy beard added a little handsomeness. Sword eyebrows and star eyes, their faces are like knives, and between their hands and feet, they all carry the wind of a master.

From the moment he appeared, Jiang Yi's eyes lit up, as if he had seen his idol and worshipped him.

Lu Qin beside him seemed to have found something. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Yi, and then stared at him angrily. He only muttered in a voice he could hear, "It's not serious."

"Who is he?"

"Who is it!"

The appearance of middle-aged people suddenly caused a shock and hundreds of ghosts. Only the old Dark Moon Priest was stunned and looked at the middle-aged with respect and bowed: "The arrival of the wine sword fairy is really a blessing in this moon sacrifice ceremony."

"What, he is a wine sword fairy!" Li Mu and his party were shocked, "Is the wine sword fairy also a monster?" Many monsters like to be called immortals. Xiao Rang and others use fairy skills to investigate, but find that the wine sword fairy exudes pure immortal power, but it is much more powerful than their own.

The wine sword fairy felt that someone was investigating herself, and the starry eyes swept away, and immediately noticed Li Mujiu. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "There are actually eight immortals, and they also come here to join in the fun!" The wine sword fairy thought so, and when he glanced at Jiang Yi and Lu Qin, he took a pause. But when he saw Li Mu, he couldn't help frowning: "The other one?" With his strength, he didn't know which category Li Mu belongs to.

The demons seemed to have heard of the wine sword fairy. They looked at this dross middle-aged man one by one, and their faces were suddenly awed with awe. A parade of scattered immortals actually has such a high reputation among demons and monsters, but it makes such immortals very confused.

The arrival of the wine sword fairy pushed the whole moon ceremony to **.

The moonlight is like a pillar, illuminating the whole altar. Around the altar, a hundred large-mouthed skeletons suddenly stretched out. Moonlight can illuminate other places, but it can't penetrate the eyes of the skull's black hole. It seems to come from the oldest darkness, which is black and frightening.

The moon sacrifice ceremony is very simple. There is no lengthy and complicated procedures, but after collectively worshipping the moon god and the mother of the earth, they begin to worship the moon.

One hundred people at a time cut open the abdomen of their right index finger and drop blood into the skull's mouth. If there is a predestined person, the two eyes of the skeleton will emit a faint green light. In the eyes of the demons, it is the light of hope and happiness.

I don't know when all the surrounding fire has been extinguished, and only the pillar-like moonlight still illuminates this open space, illuminating a pair of expectant eyes.

A batch has tried, but no pair of skeleton eyes emit green light. The person who tried left in frustration and consciously stood behind the crowd. I looked forward to it and prayed silently in my heart. And those who were trying stretched out their trembling hands and dripped a drop of blood.

Soon, it will be Li Mu's turn. The gopher spirit couldn't wait and hurried forward. Only Li Mujiu hesitated and was stunned. Others were impatient, but they did not take action. All of a sudden, all the monsters and ghosts looked at them.

Doubtful and surprised.

"If you don't want to wear it, just go." Xiao Rang said in a voice.

They have no time to doubt Li Mu's identity, and now they have to bravely.

Nine people stood in a row, cut their fingers and abdomen in their own ways, and dripped a drop of blood into the skeleton's mouth. They also look forward to it like other goblins, but they don't expect to be themselves.

The wine sword fairy took a sip of wine and looked at these young people curiously. He would like to know how several human blood drips will react.

"Drip!" A sound fell into the skull's mouth, but the blood of Xiao Rang and other eight people was not absorbed by the skeleton like other goblins. Instead, he lay quietly in it, bright red and very eye-catching. Only Li Mu's blood was sucked in by the skeleton, spit out again, and then sucked in. It was repeated three or four times before it finally disappeared into the skull's mouth.

The skull seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and the dark skull gradually became blood red, and then turned into a well-informed purple. Li Mu was stunned and stunned.

Xiao asked several people to withdraw their blood without leaving a trace at the same time and pretended to fail. Around them, they heard the painful complaint of Gomot: "Why? Why isn't it me? It's already twice."

The other 99 people came down, and only Li Mu stood still, stupidly watching the change of the skeleton.

Suddenly, the wisp of fire that seemed to come from the dark space lit up the eyes, and the lights were getting closer and closer, until the whole eye ignited a blazing flame.

Before waiting for other monsters to come forward, the altar automatically took back the other 99 skeletons, leaving only one of Li Mu, which was still burning secluded flames.

"It's him!"

"Is it him?"

"It's him..."

For a moment, the whole audience was in an uproar. Surprise, unbelievable, frustrated and angry abound. Only a few people here were stunned, as if they couldn't believe their eyes. In particular, the gopher spirit seems to be facing a disaster of extinction, and he is on the verge of disaster.

The wine sword fairy looked at Li Mu curiously. He really couldn't see what Li Mu belonged to. It looks like a demon, not a demon, and the four immortals are not immortals. But the moon god chose him to be the darling of this fate and let him get the blessing of the moon.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Suddenly, the gopher spirit roared, rushed to the stage to point to Li Mu, and roared almost crazily, "He is not a demon. Why is it him?"

"Not a demon!" Wan Yao was shocked and turned his eyes from the gopher spirit to Li Mu.

The gopher spirit has been completely crazy. He was unwilling to point to Li Mu and roared, "He is just a small land on the east coast. He is a god, not a demon."

"God!" The demons looked at Li Mu angrily, and the whole field was restless. Even the wine sword fairy sitting on the ground stood up, and he was happy to see Li Mu defend.

Xiao Rang and Du Xiang hesitated. They didn't know whether they should stand in front of Li Mu at this time. Even they began to doubt Li Mu.

"Yes, I am God. You demons and monsters can help me, and even the mother of the earth and the moon god no longer care for you. Why don't you abandon the secret? If you are willing to abandon the secret, I can introduce you to my immortal sect. Li Mu put his hands on his back and stared at the demons. How can he also be the leader of a group of demons and be scared by this group of demons?

After hearing this, the demons were stunned, as if they were children abandoned by their parents and suddenly became confused.

Only the gopher spirit was still crazy and roared, "Don't listen to his nonsense. Everyone kills him and take back the favor of the moon god." With that, he was the first to do it. When he was on Huaguo Mountain, he didn't pay attention to Li Mu.

He turned into a mouse and shot at Li Mu, with his sharp claws straight to the heart. Other monsters were encouraged and planned to kill Li Mu and kill the thief.

Du Xiang stamped his foot and rushed over. He can't watch Li Mu die here. Even if Li Mu has any problems, it should be handled by the master, not this group of dirty monsters.

However, just as they were about to approach the altar, suddenly a huge cyan light fell from the sky and surrounded the whole altar. The wine sword fairy stood up and said loudly, "He doesn't believe in the moon god alone. Don't you all believe in the moon god? Think about it, when did the Moon God treat you badly for thousands of years? Naturally, there is a reason why he did this. How dare you desphem him.

The demons stopped and suddenly woke up a lot. Watching the gopher spirit fight with Li Mu in the field, his heart is extremely complicated.

The Gopher spirit and Li Mu fought several rounds of spells, but the Gopher spirit fell behind. The more angry he is, the more chaotic he is. What's more, he is no longer Li Mu's opponent at this time. If it hadn't been for Li Munian's old feelings, he would have been killed.

"Is this the fairy method of Tongyuan Gate?" Hao Nan looked at Li Mu casting a spell, which was very strange. He was not right or evil, but there was mystery everywhere, and he couldn't help asking quietly.

Xiao Rang frowned and said, "This is not my Tongyuanmen Taoism. As I said earlier, my little brother was paid by the Jade Emperor to go to Xianfa. This may be what he has learned in recent years."

"S~"

The gopher spirit roared, scratched Li Mu's arm with its sharp claws and passed through his armpit. Li Mu couldn't help but be angry and roared, "I miss you as my old department. I won't let you die. Don't take an inch." After saying that, a burst of purple gas came out all over his body, like a ghost, and penetrated into the body of the gopher spirit. Li Mu's mind moved, and suddenly the gopher spirit exploded from his body and was already blown into nothingness by this huge energy.

The gopher spirit died, and the demons sighed. With the wine sword fairy, no one dares to stop him.

Li Mu was greeted by the moonlight on the altar, and a strong beam of light shone on him, like aura falling from the sky, bathing his whole body.
