In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

"This is the improved drawing. Let them use this to make it later." In the hall, Zhang Tie handed the painted stone talisman pattern to Ahu.

"Then what you did before will be useless?" Ahu touched his head and asked carefully.

"The previous ones were all ordinary stone talismans, used to stabilize the formation. There is no need to change. This is the core part. I told them to do it according to the drawings."

"In addition, your progress must be accelerated. The stone talismans must be completed within a month. Then, before the next burst of Jue Ling Qi, all of them must be transported to Storm Mountain!" Zhang Tie warned again.

"Within a month!" Ahu's face changed after hearing this, and he couldn't help blurting out.

"What, you can't do it?" Lu Yuan's voice dropped.

"To be honest with Master Lu, there are still two villages that have not completed the tasks assigned previously. Now we have to meet the construction deadline again. I'm afraid..."

"Which two villages!"

"It's Blackstone Village and Whitewater Village. Whitewater Village is better, 90% has been completed, and Blackstone Village hasn't even reached 70% yet."

"Why didn't you retaliate before?" Lu Yuan's face flashed with anger, and he asked Ahu coldly.

"Back to Master Lu, these two villages are not weak in strength. I'm worried that if you punish them, it may arouse their rebellion." Ahu turned pale with fright and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.

For Lu Yuan, he couldn't resist at all. More than ten days ago, he, who considered himself a master of martial arts, used the excuse to compete with Lu Yuan. In the end, Lu Yuan was easily defeated in less than three moves.

"Rebellion, if they have the guts, I don't mind killing them with blood!" Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes, then looked at the kneeling Ah Hu and ordered again in a cold voice:

"Now you lead a team of people, go to Blackstone Village first, behead all the old guys in Blackstone Village, and then take their heads and tell them to all the villages!"

"Yes!" Seeing that Lu Yuan was really angry, Ahu didn't dare to say anything anymore. He stood up, took Zhang Tie's drawings and prepared to leave.

"If you can't hand it in in full after one month, or if you cut corners, I'll chop off your head next time!"

Ahu couldn't help but tremble when he heard this, bowed and left after saying yes.

......

Storm Mountain is a giant sky-reaching mountain located in the northeastern corner of the Land of Netherworld. From a distance, only half of the mountainside can be seen. The rest of the mountain is stuck directly into the clouds, and the upper half cannot be seen clearly.

This mountain is entirely composed of bare black rocks, and no vegetation can survive on the mountain. And starting from a height of more than a thousand feet, a fierce wind of darkness began to blow on the mountain.

But on this day, an uninvited guest came to Storm Mountain.

The corpse of a giant beast that was thirty to forty feet high fell heavily to the ground in a silver light. The corpse shriveled up quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it lost all its life. At this time, the silver light enveloped the large group of black energy and flew away.

A majestic roar came from far away, shaking the world and making a buzzing sound.

Then the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard, and a silver giant ape with a height of more than ten feet appeared next to the corpse of the Yin Beast after a few ups and downs. This giant ape is ferocious and ferocious, showing an indescribable and astonishing aura in every move it makes.

But on their shoulders, there was a man sitting on each side, it was Lu Yuan and Han Li.

They took the Crying Soul Beast around to kill the powerful Yin Beast. As a result, after absorbing a large amount of the Yin Beast's soul, the beast suddenly had the ability to transform into a giant ape, and soon its fur also changed into this eye-catching color.

The few powerful Yin beasts left near Storm Mountain are simply vulnerable to today's soul-crying beasts. The Yin beast that died just now is the last one here.

......

A few days later, on a flat rock near the top of Storm Mountain, a silver giant ape with a height of more than ten feet was beating its chest with both hands and roaring into the sky. Behind its huge figure were Lu Yuan and Han Li.

Thousands of various Yin beasts with fleshy ribs and wings were hovering and flying over the giant rock. The big ones were as big as five or six feet, while the small ones were only about a foot in size. But all of them looked ferocious and extremely fierce. look.

The largest three-headed Yin beast suddenly let out a strange roar, and the dozens of Yin beasts closest to Lu Yuan and the others suddenly flapped their wings and swooped down.

The war finally begins!

Almost at the same time as these Yin beasts rushed down, the giant ape suddenly inhaled through his nose, then closed his big mouth and sprayed hard. A large piece of silver light rolled out from the huge nostrils, covering nine out of ten Yin beasts at once. Beasts, these flying Yin beasts immediately screamed in the silver light, and immediately staggered and fell.

But two Yin beasts slipped through the net. With a flap of their fleshy wings, they actually avoided the giant ape's silver light and pounced hard on Lu Yuan from both sides.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and one of the Yin Beasts was punched out by the giant ape. It was knocked several feet away and flew under the huge rock. It was unknown where it fell.

But another Yin beast, which was two feet in size and looked like a vulture, took advantage of this and rushed to the top of Lu Yuan's head, waving its claws unceremoniously.

Lu Yuan didn't move on the spot with a gloomy expression, but when the Yin Beast jumped more than two feet above his head, he grabbed the spear stuck on the ground next to him. With a strong push of his feet, he jumped up out of thin air. Before the Yin Beast could react, the person had already landed on its back.

Then his left arm glowed with silver light, and it penetrated the Yin Beast's back fiercely.

The seemingly indestructible flesh of the Yin Beast could not stop the Demon Silver Hand at all. Lu Yuan easily grabbed one of Yin Beast's ribs. The Yin beast immediately screamed in extreme pain, slapped hard with both hands, and flew towards the group of Yin beasts.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan squeezed the Yin Beast's ribs hard. The Yin Beast felt pain again, changed its direction, and flew towards the three largest Yin Beasts.

The three Yin beasts instantly understood that Lu Yuan's target was themselves, and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes. They had never seen such a fierce human being. The strange roars in his mouth continued, and a large number of Yin beasts continued to rush towards Lu Yuan.

At the same time, other Yin beasts also launched a general attack on the Soul Crying Beast and Han Li.

Lu Yuan held a spear in his right hand and saw the opportunity. The spear pierced the head of a flying Yin beast, killing it with one blow.

Then he swung it hard and smashed his body into the group of Yin beasts.

"Be honest, or you will be the one who dies next time!" Lu Yuan didn't care whether the Yin Beast at his feet understood or not, and waved the tip of his spear in front of its eyes.

Although Yin Beast couldn't understand Lu Yuan's words, the bloody spear was right in front of him, and he instantly became more honest.

Lu Yuan took out a bottle of elixir, crushed it into powder, and sprinkled it along the wound on Yin Beast's back.

The Yin beast was rushed by the medicine, and instantly became fierce, leading Lu Yuan to avoid the chasing army of Yin beasts. But there are still other Yin beasts, intercepting and killing them from all directions.

Lu Yuan's face was full of evil spirits, and he stabbed, swept, chopped, and smashed with the spear in his hand.

Silver light, gray light, and shrill screams intertwined together, and large swathes of Yin beasts fell one after another...

Two months later, on the dark earth.

Lines of yellow dragons billowing with smoke extended from each village, moving slowly towards Storm Mountain.

In the Yellow Dragon, countless strong men and women shouted chants, and with the help of rolling logs as thick as buckets, they pushed stone plates the size of houses.

Each of these stone plates weighs thousands of kilograms. Even the people living here are much stronger than those outside. But judging from the expressions on their faces, it was still very difficult.

On Storm Mountain, a silver giant ape that was more than twenty feet tall carried a huge stone plate on its shoulders and climbed towards the top of Storm Mountain step by step.

In addition, there are countless Yin beasts around, each in a group of thirty or forty, using unknown vines as thick as an adult's thigh. Also hanging stone plates, they flew up to the top of the mountain with all their strength.

On the top of Storm Mountain, Zhang Tie rode a Yin beast, constantly circling in the air, commanding the Yin beast to place the stone plates in a certain pattern.

"Go down and tell my senior brother that it's too slow. You must give me half a month to test!" Zhang Tie said to Ahu next to him.

Ahu also rode a Yin beast, but because he couldn't stand the Yin wind on Storm Mountain, he had several layers of animal skin covering his body, like a zongzi. Even so, his face was still purple from the cold.

"Want to go any faster? This has already mobilized about 60% of the entire Yinming Land's manpower." Halfway up the mountain, Han Li frowned after listening to Ahu's report.

"If you continue, we must allocate another 30% of the manpower. As long as they are able to move, except for babies who are nursing, even those who are missing arms and legs must join the transport team." Lu Yuan said coldly.

"Now the people left in each village are the old, weak, sick and disabled, and they are not of much use." Ahu said with a troubled face.

"It won't be of much use? In this land of darkness, when did people start eating and drinking?" Lu Yuan's face sank and he asked coldly.

"Uh..." Ahu was speechless for a moment.

"Tell the great elder that he is too fat and it is time for him to exercise. Let him set an example!

Otherwise, I wouldn't mind letting him rest forever! "

"Yes!" After listening to Lu Yuan's words, Ahu instantly felt that it was colder than the Yin wind on Storm Mountain, and immediately took control of the Yin beast and flew towards the village in the distance.

"If you do it this way, not only will the efficiency not increase much, but people will also die." Han Li said leisurely.

"This is related to whether we can deal with high-level Nascent Soul cultivators in the future. It must be completed! If you are soft-hearted, why not bother your crying soul to make more trips?" Lu Yuan looked at the panting silver giant not far away with some amusement. said.

"Okay, Crying Soul is already very tired. Do whatever you want. What a tyrant!" Han Li said with a bitter smile and turned to look at Mei Ning. But Mei Ning knew that Lu Yuan had his reasons for doing this, so she naturally didn't go back to interfere.

"Tyrants are tyrants. To be honest, the temptation to monopolize power, expand territory and dominate thousands of people is really fascinating. I already like this feeling."

"Once you advance to Nascent Soul in the future, you will have to form a team, establish a sect, and be honored as your ancestor no matter what!" Lu Yuan said to himself.

"You should think about it, it is indeed good to be an ancestor. But if you provoke any big enemy, you will be tripped up, and you will not be as comfortable as a casual cultivator." Han Li looked at Lu Yuan up and down in disbelief. After a long time, my thoughts suddenly returned to Jiayuan City in the Yue Kingdom.

It was as if he had once again seen Dr. Mo, who dominated Lanzhou and Jingzhou, and the ambitious Li Feiyu beside Dr. Mo.

"An enemy? It's a joke. In this era where the spirit cannot be transformed and the Yuanying is revered. Once the advancement is successful, and my plan is successful this time. With the three of us joining forces, even if the late Yuanying monk comes, Don't be afraid of him." Lu Yuan said unconcernedly.

"There is heaven outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. Don't forget that in the human world, there is also the Jin Dynasty, which is known as the holy land of cultivating immortals. It is a super empire. It is said that there may be legendary god-transforming monks there." Han Li said coldly.

"I didn't say I was going to provoke the Jin Dynasty. If nothing else, at least I can go back to Tiannan and become a local emperor. When the time comes, I will be the emperor, and I will make you the great mage who protects the country, and Brother Zhang will be the prime minister!" Lu Yuan glanced sideways at Han Li.

"Alas, this is just a little bit of potential..." Han Li shook his head with disdain.

"If I don't let you become the prince, I will pass the throne to you in a few hundred years!"

"Get out!" Han Li was so angry that Lu Yuan was clearly taking advantage of him that he turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Lu Yuan laughed, and then hugged Mei Ning.

"The eyesore is gone, you will be the queen then, and we can enjoy the wealth of the human world!"

Mei Ning was hugged coldly, and after giving Lu Yuan a shy and angry look, she shrank into Lu Yuan's arms without saying anything in opposition.

"Deploy 30% of your men, and you can also move rocks for me!" Lu Yuan raised his foot and kicked a huge statue next to him and scolded.

An unwilling roar sounded, and the three Yin beasts flapped their wings, creating a gust of wind. There were some strange screams in the air, and a large number of Yin beasts swept past the Storm Mountain and flew towards several villages on the Yin Ming land.

After half a month, all the stone plates were arranged. After several tests and adjustments by Zhang Tie, everything was finally in order. Now that everything is ready, all we have to do is wait for the unparalleled spiritual energy to explode.

At this time, the monks who were sucked into this place by the ghost mist also understood that Lu Yuan and the others were about to leave, and they all begged to be taken with them.

Lu Yuan did not refuse this, but he proposed to see their own destiny. As long as you climb to the top of Storm Mountain, you can follow Lu Yuan and others to leave.

Although Lu Yuan and the others had some tricks, they were all prepared for themselves. If we bring other people along, we won't be able to take care of them all.

When those people saw what Lu Yuan said, they weighed it up, and most of them immediately expressed their intention to try it out. After all, the Yin beasts in Storm Mountain have either been destroyed or subdued by Lu Yuan and the others, so they are much less of a threat to them.

Therefore, among the monks in each village, except for the older ones like Bao Huanzi, they had already given up thinking about getting out of trouble. After making some preparations, they all started climbing Storm Mountain.

But the result was that as soon as most of the people climbed a quarter of the way to Storm Mountain, they couldn't stand the coldness of the underworld wind and retreated one after another. Among the remaining small half, more than a dozen people froze to death on the mountain.

Only seven or eight people were able to move on because they were well prepared. But the higher you climb, the stronger the wind becomes. Even making it impossible to stand. In the end, without even seeing the phantom mist on the mountainside, he was blown down the rock by the strong wind several times, causing injuries and death.

The few people who were lucky enough to survive saw the power and no longer dared to move forward, so they had no choice but to turn back.

After a few more days, it was finally time for the Jue Ling Qi to burst out.

The entire top of Storm Mountain was shrouded in rolling black mist, with constant thunder inside, and terrifying lightning flashes from time to time, as if the end was coming.

And more than ten miles down the mountain, thousands of men, women, old and children, led by Ahu and the village elders, all respectfully watched every move on Storm Mountain.

Suddenly, a large wave of purple energy surged from the top of the mountain, entangled with the black mist. The two sides fought for several hours before slowly disappearing.

After Storm Mountain returned to its original state, a large number of Yin beasts continued to circle around Storm Mountain. Especially the largest three-headed Yin beast, its excited roar shook the sky.

"It seems they really succeeded!" the great elder exclaimed with an incredible look on his face.

The elders of several other villages also nodded in agreement, and they were all relieved to finally see this tyrant off.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ahu suddenly led dozens of people out of the crowd and stood in front.

"Although Master Lu is gone, as his disciple, I should inherit this great position!"
