Chapter 312 Tao Xuan VS Lu Sheng
Chapter 312 Tao Xuan VS Lu Sheng
Last time, we talked about Li Yi picking up the Heaven-Slaying Sun Bow and putting on the Spirit Feather Arrow to shoot the Three-legged Golden Crow. The crow immediately fled when he saw the might of Dayi. So how will the story develop next? Let's read on.
Seeing Li Yi chasing him with his sword, Wu Ji immediately turned himself into a big fireball and sped up his escape. If you look from the ground, it looks like the little sun is flying in front and Li Yi is chasing him with his sword. Although this scene is a bit funny, it is not friendly to the surrounding snow-capped mountains.
The three-legged golden crow flew across the sky and passed over the snow-capped mountains. The snow on the top of the mountain that had accumulated for years quickly melted, and mixed with ice, snow and boulders flowed down the hillside to the valley bottom, gradually gathering into a mountain torrent, and rushing towards the Tianchi Lake along the river, which caused the water level of the Tianchi Lake to rise rapidly.
Li Yi also wanted to kill Wu Ji quickly, but he was not Dayi of the past, and he did not have Kuafu's Sun Chasing Boots, so how could he catch up with the three-legged golden crow. Before Dayi fought with the ten golden crows, he specially asked Emperor Yao for the Sun Chasing Boots, otherwise he could not catch up with the three-legged golden crow.
The Sun Chasing Boots were also a magic weapon made by Empress Tai'an. She gave this treasure to the leader of the Kuafu tribe. The Kuafu tribe did not exist for a long time, but before the Three Emperors.
At that time, the scope of human activities had been squeezed to the limit by the demon clan. If this continued, the human race would be doomed to extinction. Therefore, Niangniang Tai'an used the soul of the demon god Houyi and created the giant Kuafu tribe through the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk, and asked them to fight against the demon clan to reduce the pressure on the human race.
The adults of the Kuafu tribe were all about 20 feet tall. Not only were they tall, they were also strong enough to carry a mountain. Otherwise, how could they fight against the demons? They fulfilled their mission and successfully preserved the last hope of the human race. This is why the first saint was born later to assist the Yellow Emperor in the war against the demons.
By the way, there are many records of women getting pregnant after stepping on giants' footprints, all of which are related to the Kuafu tribe. The Kuafu tribe is made up of warriors, without women. The Queen Mother Taian created them to fight, not to applaud for love, so their reproduction depends entirely on footprints!
The people of the Kuafu tribe would deliberately make footprints of various shapes, and then trick human women into stepping on the footprints. The footprints were actually a kind of magic circle, and the purpose was naturally to make the women pregnant and then give birth to their offspring.
If you want to give birth to a real Kuafu, the pregnancy period must be about two years, but such a long pregnancy period will cause the fetus to be too large to be delivered normally, and many women will die because of carrying the blood of the Kuafu. At that time, if the human race found a woman with a long pregnancy period, they would throw her into the mountains and forests to let her die.
The people of the Kuafu tribe would find these women and feed them until their children burst their mothers' bellies, or they would cut open the women's bellies with their own hands and take out their children. It may sound cruel, but given the circumstances at the time, humans had no choice.
However, not all women who stepped on the footprints gave birth to children of the Kuafu clan. Some women who stepped on the footprints of the Kuafu clan gave birth to people with Kuafu bloodline.
For example, Shennong, Yan Emperor, Huang Emperor, Chiyou, even Cangjie, Dayi and many ancient legendary figures are all humans with Kuafu bloodline, so the Kuafu tribe can actually be understood as the human genetic modification project of Niangniang Tai'an, which is also another proof that the human race is favored by heaven and earth.
We have gone off topic. Let’s get back to the Kuafu tribe. They have been fighting against the demon tribe for many years, and there must have been wins and losses. The most famous battle among them is naturally the legend of Kuafu chasing the sun.
That year, Wu Hao, the father of the Three-legged Golden Crow, led his troops to attack the human race. This was a bit like the grassland tribes going south to pick mushrooms, except that they did not rob money and women, they came to eat people.
Wu Hao did not act low-key either. He turned into a huge fireball and burned and killed people along the way, and flew straight to the human habitat.
Seeing two suns in the sky, who would not know that something was wrong? The leader of the Kuafu tribe immediately brought nearby warriors to fight against the demon army. The Kuafu tribe won the battle easily. They killed all the demon soldiers, and only Wu Hao survived.
After his defeat, Wu Hao realized that the people of Kuafu's tribe were not easy to deal with, but he still wanted to avenge his companions. However, he could not defeat Kuafu, so he had to turn into a huge fireball in the sky to burn the earth, harass the human race, and make the people live in misery.
The human race had no way to deal with it, they could only offer sacrifices and pray, asking the gods to help them through the difficulties. Tai'an Niangniang was too lazy to take care of such a small matter herself, she only sent a divine thought to the leader of the Kuafu tribe, asking him to find a way to deal with it.
The leader of the Kuafu tribe was also called Kuafu, just like the leader of the Nuwa tribe was also called Nuwa, which was a position and a nickname. Kuafu was also worried, because the three-legged crow was hanging in the sky and would not land, so he could not reach it.
At that time, there was no Heaven-Shooting Sun Bow, but Tai'an Niangniang gave Kuafu a pair of boots, which later became the Sun-Chasing Boots. This pair of boots not only increased the speed, but also restored physical strength by stepping on the ground.
This Kuafu was a bit simple-minded, but his limbs were strong. When he heard that the boots had such an effect, he immediately thought of a way to deal with Wu Hao! I will chase him and tire him to death! As soon as he lands, I will kill him! If he doesn't land, I will tire him to death!
Thus, there is the legend of Kuafu chasing the sun. Otherwise, why would Kuafu chase the sun for fun? Kuafu chased Wu Hao all over the nine provinces, from south to north, and from east to west, all the way to the southwest corner of the continent.
Wu Hao hid in the snowy mountains for a while, and Kuafu thought he would not come again, so he turned back and rested in Bashu for a few days and played with snakes for a few days. The Kuafu tribe was created by Tai'an Niangniang, who has a human head and a snake body, so they are very close to snakes and can even control most snakes.
Because playing with snakes made him feel good, and there were many snakes in Bashu, he thought this place was suitable for their tribe, so he stayed for a while and got many women pregnant. But just after he sowed the seeds, Wu Hao ran out again, so he had to continue chasing the sun. The descendants he left in Bashu were the ancestors of the Sanmiao people, and the Chiyou tribe was the descendants of the Sanmiao.
This time it was just the opposite. They chased from south to north and from west to east to the coast of the East China Sea. However, the Sun-Chasing Boots could not go into water, so Kuafu stayed by the sea.
There is no snake here, and it is meaningless for Kuafu to just stand there. What should he do? Let's step on two footprints for fun. This time was the same. Just after Kuafu finished sowing seeds, Wu Hao came out again. He had to set off again. The descendants of Kuafu on the coast of the East China Sea were the ancestors of the Dongyi people, and the Yi tribe was one of the Dongyi tribes.
Having been teased by Wu Hao twice before, Kuafu was determined to kill Wu Hao. However, ordinary bows and javelins could not hurt Wu Hao at all, so Kuafu chased him while thinking of a way.
Hey, Kuafu really came up with this idea, pretending to be dead! He and Wu Hao can be said to have a deep blood feud. If he died, Wu Hao would definitely come down to eat his flesh!
So, after chasing for a while, Kuafu pretended to be exhausted and lay on the ground motionless. Wu Hao was not stupid either, so he tried in the air, throwing fireballs and feather arrows at Kuafu. Seeing that Kuafu was still motionless, he thought to himself, you kid are finally exhausted, I will not show mercy, I must eat you, and I have to roast you.
The moment Wu Hao landed on Kuafu, the latter pierced Wu Hao's wings with a spear, making him unable to fly anymore! Then they started fighting for their lives, and the final result was that both sides were injured and died together.
Kuafu's Sun Chasing Boots were picked up by someone and later became a magic weapon for the human race. However, after Dayi died, the Sun Chasing Boots mysteriously disappeared and never appeared again. Some people said that they were stolen and hidden by Pang Meng, who was killed by Hei Er, so no one knew the whereabouts of the Sun Chasing Boots.
Now that we are talking about the Kuafu tribe, there is one more thing that must be mentioned, and that is the ending of the Kuafu tribe. The Kuafu tribe, which was created by Queen Tai'an to protect the human race, all died at the hands of Yinglong.
Sadly, when the human race defeated the demon race, they no longer needed the protection of the Kuafu tribe, but began to expel the Kuafu tribe, saying that they threatened the safety of the human race. The Kuafu tribe had no choice but to migrate to Bashu and join the Chiyou tribe.
After defeating Emperor Yan, Huangdi united with the Chiyou tribe to fight against him. Chiyou would not sit still and wait for death, so he led his brothers to fight against him, but was eventually slaughtered by Yinglong and the dragon tribe.
The Kuafu tribe had protected the human race for nearly a thousand years under the claws of the demon army, but in the end, they died at the hands of the demon dragons who defected to the human race. How ridiculous! Isn't this just like when the birds are gone, the good bows are put away, and when the rabbits die, the running dogs are cooked?
But in fact, this is also part of the cycle of cause and effect. You killed too many demons, so you will naturally die at the hands of the demons in the end. Moreover, Tiandao and Tai'an do not like tribes with too strong individuals. Moreover, the Kuafu tribe was created with the souls of those demon gods. This is also the real reason why Chiyou was defeated and Kuafu's tribe was exterminated.
Uh, aren't we talking about Li Yi? Why are we talking about Dayi's ancestors? But it's okay to talk about it. After all, if there was no Kuafu bloodline and the soul of the demon god, Dayi would not have become a first-class warrior, and there would be no Li Yi.
Let's talk about Li Yi, he was chasing Wu Ji with his sword, but he was more anxious than anyone else as he saw the fireball getting farther and farther away from him. Because at this time, he had to rely on the power of the earth soul left by Dayi on the Jietian Sheri Bow to have the possibility of killing Wu Ji. Once the remaining spiritual power was exhausted, only a few memories would be left.
At this moment, Taoist Master Tao Xuan flew over with a ten-foot-high boulder held in one hand. He shouted loudly: "How dare you, a bold monster, wreak havoc on the world! You deserve to die!" After that, he smashed the boulder at Jinwu.
Wu Ji spewed out a fireball that blew the boulder into two halves, which fell on the West Mountain and actually smashed a big hole in the mountain. That was where Lu Sheng's Demon-Subduing Cave was!
It was during the moment when Tao Xuan was blocking Jinwu that Li Yi seized the opportunity. He injected all the red energy in his body, along with spiritual power, Buddhist teachings and righteousness, into the Lingyu Arrow.
As he released the bowstring with his right hand, the spirit feather arrow shot out, surrounded by a halo of red, yellow, blue, green and purple colors, like a rotating rainbow cutting through the sky.
Wu Ji felt the threat from behind and was about to dodge, but was nailed directly to the west mountain by the spirit feather arrow. With a bang, a big hole was smashed into the bare mountain, and then it collapsed rapidly.
It was said before that when the Golden Crow falls to the ground, a fire will be set off. The wind cannot blow it away, and the water cannot put it out. If it does not go out for three years, not a single blade of grass will grow in ten years. Tao Xuan Zhenren naturally knew about this, but when he saw the fire on the collapsed West Mountain, he did not hesitate for a moment. He waved his hand, and a column of water rose from the Tianchi and rushed straight to the source of the fire.
The water from the Tianchi Lake was poured into the pit that collapsed from the top of the mountain, and soon it rushed out from the hole that was smashed by the boulder before, along with more than 30 Zoroastrian priests! In this way, the barrier and soul-binding formation set up by Lu Sheng at the Tianchi Lake were broken.
"Tao Xuan! You knew that I was refining soul pills for Empress Tai'an, yet you dared to destroy my cave and break my magic array! What exactly are you up to?" Lu Sheng flew out of the burning ruins, came to Tao Xuan, pointed at him and shouted, "Tao Xuan! Do you think I won't kill you because you are protected by the Heavenly Dao?"
Tao Xuan looked surprised and said, "Brother Lu Sheng, why is this happening? I just saw a fire on your west mountain and was afraid that the fire would spread, so I transferred water to help. What's wrong with that?"
"Then how do you explain why you smashed my cave with a huge rock?"
"I was trying to stop the Golden Crow. My stone was meant for him. He was the one who blew the stone up to the West Mountain. What does this have to do with me?"
"You used the excuse of sparring to stop me from refining the Soul Gathering Pill. Just based on this, I can sue you in front of Empress Tai'an!"
Tao Xuan shook his head and stroked his beard, saying, "Brother Lu Sheng, don't you know yet? I'm afraid the queen won't protect you anymore."
"Humph! You clearly saw that the Queen had just given me a protective scale armor, why won't you protect me again!"
"If you really serve the Empress wholeheartedly, the Empress will naturally protect you, but ask yourself, are you still doing things for the Empress wholeheartedly now? You raised the Three-legged Golden Crow in your disciple's body, are you colluding with the demon clan?"
