Chapter 127 With such a cowardly attitude, how will you ever work with me again?
Soon, Liu Xun moved the 12 blood-red statues down and placed them around Ding Yi.
"Master, once we're outside the formation, the statue's malevolent aura is starting to spread. Please be careful."
Liu Xun looked at Ding Yi and then gave him a reminder.
"I know what I'm doing, I'll go outside and keep watch."
Ding Yi waved his hand and said to Liu Xun.
Liu Xun responded and then jogged away, leaving the entire cave to Ding Yi.
Ding Yi looked at the twelve crimson statues around him and felt a sense of disorientation.
There was a time when it was extremely difficult for him to obtain even a white statue, but now the feeling of having 12 blood-red statues in front of him made Ding Yi feel as if he were in a dream.
It's worth mentioning that the nine blood-red statues that were just replaced on the first day of the month have already been taken to the Yin-Yang Palace; otherwise, today it wouldn't be just 12 statues, there would be a total of 21!
There was no time to complain. Ding Yi took out three enhanced oil lamps from his package, placed them on the ground, lit them, and then sat down cross-legged on two blood-red statues.
Ding Yi placed his two palms on a blood-red statue and then began to circulate the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Exorcism Technique.
At this moment, a vortex appeared directly on Ding Yi's hands, and streams of baleful energy continuously emanated from the statue and were absorbed into his body. Combined with the effect of the surrounding lamps, lines of prompts rapidly appeared in his eyes.
[You have refined a trace of Yin-Yang Fiend, your lifespan increased by 0.1 days.]
[You have refined a trace of Yin-Yang Fiend, your lifespan increased by 10 days.]
[You have refined a trace of Yin-Yang Fiend, your lifespan increased by 0.1 days.]
...
Time passed unnoticed, and Ding Yi changed the statue in his hand one after another. A large amount of white powder accumulated in front of him, forming a small white area.
An hour and a half later, Ding Yi finally exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then waved his sleeve, scattering the white powder in front of him.
"It added 270 years to my lifespan. If it weren't for the evil monk from Baiyun Temple tampering with it and absorbing some of my lifespan, I might have ended up with a lifespan of over 300 years."
Thinking of this, Ding Yi was filled with emotion.
It's hard to imagine how much the Yin-Yang Palace, which controls the entire Qingzhou, earns in a month if it can acquire so many statues in just one small county like Qingfeng.
Now it seems that the Flesh-and-Meat Guan Ye was not trying to drain the pond to catch all the fish, but probably because he could not move an inch in Qingzhou, so he took the risk.
Otherwise, with the continuous income from these statues alone, which temple or shrine wouldn't want to manage it well and make long-term plans?
Ding Yi, who had gotten up, glanced at the jade-colored statue on the great formation and found that it was already swaying and it was only a matter of time before it collapsed.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi waved his hand and shattered the three oil lamps on the ground before walking out of the cave. Now that he had enough lifespan, the next step was to figure out how to deal with that demonic monk!
As soon as Ding Yi stepped out of the cave, he saw Liu Xun waiting outside.
Liu Xun heard the commotion and saw Ding Yi come out. He immediately asked:
"Master, how is it?"
"Well, tell me, how can we eliminate the spirit possession?"
Ding Yi nodded, then asked another question.
"Master, only a spirit possession can destroy this!"
Liu Xun said with a bitter face.
"Are you kidding me? This prestigious Qingfeng County, do you think you'd just bow down and submit to a random deity?!"
Ding Yi was taken aback.
"No, Master, there was originally someone who could use the jade statue to invoke the gods, but that person was just killed by the rebels."
Liu Xun glanced at Ding Yi cautiously, then spoke.
"You mean Yu Rongguang?"
Ding Yi was taken aback, then coughed guiltily, and continued:
"And what about you? Now that you've taken over as the Director of the Inspection Department, are you also capable of summoning spirits?"
"Master, all I can think about now is your image. I can't sense the Yin-Yang Calamity Star at all!"
Liu Xun wanted to cry but had no tears.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi slapped his forehead again. Well, he realized that he had already subdued two of the most powerful worshippers in the city, killed one, and the rest were mostly lowly cultivators in the Refining Organs stage, probably not even qualified to be involved in invoking gods.
"What about the warriors? How do warriors deal with the spirits that have appeared?"
Ding Yi asked again.
“Master, only those martial artists who have entered the Yuanqiao Realm have the ability to resist the divine intervention, and of course, they can only resist it.”
“Unless martial artists at the Yuanqiao Realm obtain some special weapons, they don’t have any good way to deal with the Divine Descent, which is why martial artists are weak.”
"In the end, the reason why warriors are like this is because they don't have their own god!"
Liu Xun sighed.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi seemed to ponder something, and then felt somewhat annoyed.
I had hoped to get more clues to choose a way to kill that evil god, but now it seems the situation is worse than I thought.
"Master, please don't overthink it. Let's prepare to hide. Once the Yin-Yang Palace discovers the anomaly here, the experts in the county will come to investigate directly."
Liu Xun continued.
"Hide? Hahahaha!!"
Ding Yi seemed to have heard a joke, then spat on the ground and said:
"It's just a demigod at the Xuanji Realm, a man-eating and deadly demon. Why should we be afraid of that?!"
"Then how will you fight alongside me against all those gods and Buddhas in the heavens?!"
"Get the hell out here and prepare the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. I'm going to slaughter a god tonight!!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xun was naturally inexplicably excited, thinking to himself that his master was no ordinary person. Others would drink to bolster their courage before a battle, or indulge in wild venting with a beautiful woman in their arms.
Our master is actually going to indulge in literary pursuits before this great battle!
In a word, elegant!
"Alright, Master, please wait in the side room!"
Liu Xun immediately responded and hurried off to prepare.
At this moment, there was not a single servant in the Censorate, so Liu Xun had to serve them personally.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi shook his head, turned around, and walked into the side room to begin making plans.
Before long, Liu Xun brought over the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, and also brought several bottles of Qi and Blood Pills as instructed.
It's not that the Qi and Blood Pill is the highest-grade pill in Qingfeng County; it's just that the pills needed by martial artists at the Yuanqiao Realm are all contraband in Qingzhou and cannot be circulated on the market at all.
Even if they exist on the black market, they are only found in large places like county towns. This small Qingfeng County is not enough to attract martial artists at the Yuanqiao Realm to settle down.
Liu Xun lit the oil lamp on the table, and as a halo of orange light spread out, Ding Yi skillfully spread out a sheet of white paper on the cutting board.
"Go outside and wait. Don't come in without my permission."
Ding Yi dipped his brush in ink and gave the instructions.
"The slave understands."
Liu Xun hurriedly went out and closed the wooden door behind him.
Ding Yi took a deep breath, then picked up the porcelain bottle and wrote on it the words "A spirit descends upon me and can kill a spirit descended from Baiyun Temple in the Xuanji Realm."
After a moment, a line of text gradually appeared in front of Ding Yi.
[Currently, the required lifespan for enhancement is 383 years and 134 days. Enhance now?]
I am Cao!
Ding Yi was startled when he saw the prompt, realizing that the method was actually feasible. However, he was also troubled because the cost was too high, exceeding his current lifespan.
"This is outrageous! The price for invoking a deity is so high? Why could that monk just touch the statue and it was done? Is it because I have no faith in the gods, and therefore it's impossible for me to invoke them?"
Ding Yi could only think of this one possibility.
