Chapter 201 - 168: I’m just a fake Heavenly Master!
People only know that “Lu Shan Sect” is one of the inheritances left by “Celestial Master Xu” of “Miraculous Salvation True Lord Miaoji” but not that the earliest inheritance of “Lu Shan Sect” was not “Dao” but “Witchcraft”!
At one point, the Lu Shan Sect was even regarded as an “evil path”.
It was not until later that the sect gradually developed, revered “Celestial Master Xu” as their Ancestral Master, and constantly absorbed and integrated the religious forms of various Daoist factions such as Jingming Sect and Spiritual Treasure Sect to gradually develop into a Daoist sect!
Even so, the Daoist skills of Lu Shan Sect still fundamentally maintain some characteristics of “witchcraft.”
Among the Daoist sects, people who raise ghosts are not uncommon, such as raising a ghost to help oneself with work, or raising a ghost to make things more convenient, and some even raise ghosts for protection of their residence, but generally, people would conceal these matters and not bring them to light.
However, the Lu Shan Sect’s skill in refining the “Five-Demon Method” is well-known.
The so-called “Five-Demon” refers to the five ghosts!
Even ordinary people may have heard of the “Five Ghosts Wealth Transportation” technique, which is one of the most proficient spells of the Lu Shan Sect!
It is said that when this method is cultivated to consummation, the five ghosts can move mountains!
In addition to refining minor demons, the Lu Shan Sect is also proficient in “Summoning Deities Skill.”
But the “Summoning Deities” of the Lu Shan Sect is different from the summoning skill of Maoshan Sect called “Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Mantra.”
The Maoshan Sect’s “Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Mantra” is a magical formation that calls upon the power of Six Ding and Six Jia deities to bless oneself, which is to borrow power to strengthen oneself, while the Lu Shan Sect… relies on asking for help!
The Lu Shan Sect refers to the summoned “deities” as “Troop Commanding Sorcerers.”
These “Troop Commanding Sorcerers” can be divided into Heavenly Troop Commanding Sorcerers, Earthly Troop Commanding Sorcerers, and Human Troop Commanding Sorcerers.
Among them, the “Heavenly Troop Commanding Sorcerers” hold the highest rank and can summon heavenly immortals to descend to the mortal world. However, not just anyone can summon them; one must have the position of “Heavenly Palace” to request the Heavenly Palace court to assign troops and generals!
As for the “Human Troop Commanding Sorcerers,” they refer to the Yin deities in the human world, who can perform rituals to summon assistance from the Yin deities in all directions.
Nowadays, Yin deities are rarely seen in the human world. Most of the resurrected Yin deities have transformed into malevolent beings, which the Lu Shan Sect naturally cannot summon. As for the “Heavenly Troop Commanding Sorcerers”… since the upheaval of heaven and earth in those years, and the heaven-human barrier, the Lu Shan Sect has been unable to summon heavenly immortals.
On the other hand, it is easy to summon “Earthly Troop Commanding Sorcerers.”
This “Earthly Troop Commanding Sorcerer” is also known as underworld soldiers, which are what people call yin spirits and malevolent beings.
However, there is a saying, “underworld soldiers are easy to summon but also easy to destroy.” Generally, the summoned “underworld soldiers” are weak and can only serve as cannon fodder… If one summons a powerful Ghost King by sheer luck, then congratulations…
If one’s own cultivation is not enough to control the Ghost King, not only will one not receive the Ghost King’s assistance, but they will also be backfired upon by the Ghost King.
Apart from that, the “Talismans and Mantras” of the Lu Shan Sect also have a considerable reputation in the martial world of Daoism.
That night.
The three elders of the Lu Shan Sect packed up everything, brought their Daoist artifacts, and invited their clan’s “Guardian Golden Armor”… The next morning, they arrived at Changle International Airport in Min Province and boarded a plane to Xi Xia Hedong Airport.
Three Daoist priests in Daoist robes on the plane caught the attention of many people.
And the intelligence department of the Spirits Management Bureau also received the information in the first instance.
Because of Wang Hou’s instructions…
The intelligence department immediately reported the matter to Wang Hou.
July 19, 2023, 9 am.
Capital City.
At the top floor of the Spirits Management Bureau headquarters’ tallest building.
Wang Hou, wearing slippers, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a thermos cup and looking down at the outside world.
“Minister!”
From outside the office, a crisp voice came, followed by a tall woman dressed in a black OL outfit. She wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, her facial features looking very elegant, but her plump figure, and the black stockings on her legs, made her appear quite sexy.
This was Wang Hou’s secretary.
Wang Hou’s secretary was known as “Miss Li” by the outside world. Although she was not well-known in the martial world, her influence within the Spirits Management Bureau was immense, as many affairs within the bureau had to go through her hands.
As she brought Wang Hou his soy milk breakfast, she also handed him a file.
Wang Hou glanced at it and chuckled, “It seems that the Lu Shan Sect is still not giving up… Well, since Xu Yang possesses the Supreme Purification Seal, the Lu Shan Sect would be able to inherit the position of Heavenly Master by obtaining the seal. Who wouldn’t give up if there is a chance of communicating with the Heavenly Court in the future?”
Miss Li said, “This time, the Lu Shan Sect has sent two seniors in the late Entering Dao Realm and one at the peak of the Entering Dao Realm. These three are the core disciples of the Chen, Lin, and Li families in the Lu Shan Sect, their Daoist skills and strength being profound. Moreover, they may have also invited a guardian deity… Xu Yang is only in the early Entering Dao Realm, I’m afraid he won’t be able to handle them.”
She hesitated for a moment and then said, “Minister, do you want me to arrange someone to go to Silver City Hedong Airport and find an excuse to stop them?”
“No need!”
Wang Hou laughed and said, “That kid wants to inherit the position of Heavenly Master; he needs to experience some setbacks. Moreover, this is an internal matter, and the martial world’s grudges, how can our Spirits Management Bureau intervene?”
Miss Li’s mouth twitched.
Not… intervening?
If they really didn’t intervene, Xu Yang might not even be able to leave the Daoist skills conference alive. Given the Lu Shan Sect’s style of doing things, it’s estimated that all the six disciples of Lu Shan would take action themselves!
How could she know Wang Hou’s thoughts?
