Chapter 66: Casting Talisman and Incantation to Summon Clouds and Rain

~7 min read 1,363 words

When the two crossed the layers of mist surrounding the outer perimeter of Flying Peak and arrived at the Mountain God Temple.

The Errant Rabbit, having turned back into a rabbit, was already panting from exhaustion.

Yet Li Li Boyang still appeared calm and composed.

"Hurry up and disperse that cloud of yours!"

"Looking at how pitch-black it is, one might think some demon had descended upon the world."

Leaning on the sculpture of the Red Leopard, Xi Luo's first words left the Errant Rabbit utterly stunned.

What surprised the Errant Rabbit even more was that Li Li Boyang, who had acted so domineering before him, actually obediently dispersed the evil cloud.

This was because Li Li Boyang knew very well the significance of this Mountain God Temple to Xi Luo.

"I need to borrow this Mountain God Temple..."

When Li Li Boyang spoke these words, Xi Luo lowered her eyelids as if she had expected it all along.

"You should know that storm is no ordinary storm, right?"

Facing Xi Luo's question, Li Li Boyang nodded with understanding.

"That is the Howing Heaven Clan of the Ghost Fang State; it is a true Heavenly God."

"However, for me, the moment He stirred up the storm intending to destroy this region, He became my enemy."

The corner of her mouth lifted imperceptibly, and Xi Luo asked again.

"Then you should know that as long as you bring your family and hide quietly in my Mountain God Temple, this storm has nothing to do with you, right?"

Upon hearing this, before Li Li Boyang could even react, the Errant Rabbit beside him instantly grew tense.

Although the Errant Rabbit's original intention was merely to have Li Li Boyang divine the old woman's life or death.

However, once Li Li Boyang made his stance clear, the Errant Rabbit's mindset changed; this is only human nature.

"If I were truly that kind of person, would you allow me to hide in this Mountain God Temple?"

Glancing at the Errant Rabbit without leaving a trace, Li Li Boyang asked in the same rhetorical tone.

Evidently, Li Li Boyang's rhetorical question left Xi Luo completely baffled.

Thinking carefully, if Li Li Boyang were truly that kind of person, perhaps she would never have approached him in the first place?

"Haha, I was just asking casually."

After a brief moment of daze, a brilliant smile immediately bloomed on Xi Luo's face.

"What do you plan to do next?"

"That storm is the manifestation of a deity; ordinary Talisman and Incantation cannot disperse it."

………………………………………………………………………………………………

A moment later, at the highest point of Flying Peak.

A simple yet fully functional platform stood prominently on the high ground in the center.

This was an altar.

In the four directions of East, South, West, and North, statues of four different deities were placed respectively.

Those four deities were the four Ghost Gods of the Ghost God Cliff, stationed respectively at the four directions of the Ghost God Cliff to suppress the earth veins of Flying Peak and even the surrounding hundred li.

As for the position directly above the altar, it held Xi Luo's statue.

This was because Li Li Boyang now needed to borrow the status of these five deities to communicate with the ancestral veins and water veins beneath the earth.

After all, Li Li Boyang was not a deity; to cast the Mountain God's Talisman and Incantation, he naturally had to find another way.

Of course, it was said that borrowing the status of the five deities to communicate with the earth veins and water veins.

In truth, except for Xi Luo, the other four Ghost Gods had absolutely no say in the matter.

—Borrowing your status is doing you a favor.

—If you truly did not want to lend it, Xi Luo would not mind going deep into the Ghost God Cliff to have a private chat with you.

"Using the power of five Mountain Gods simultaneously to cast Talisman and Incantation, this is truly a genius idea!"

Looking at the Prophetic Talismans inscribed on the altar, the Errant Rabbit sincerely let out a sigh of admiration.

Especially the five-colored stones embedded in the altar.

The Errant Rabbit saw at a glance that these were exactly the ones he had brought to Li Li Boyang last time.

Among those refined five-colored stones, the Errant Rabbit sensed a suppressed, violent primal energy.

In fact, the statues of those five deities were merely a catalyst.

What truly connected the entire main earth vein were the Prophetic Talismans constructed from the five-colored stones.

To put it more plainly, this altar was actually built to mimic the dragon veins of the Hundred Earth Mountains.

When the entire altar began to operate, it meant that the earth veins of the entire Hundred Earth Mountains would move accordingly.

"Can he withstand this pressure?"

Shifting his gaze to Li Li Boyang on the altar, the Errant Rabbit couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

From the moment Li Li Boyang stepped onto the altar, he was effectively bearing the pressure of five deities plus the dragon veins of the entire Hundred Earth Mountains.

Even with the protection of the Prophetic Talismans, the Errant Rabbit could clearly perceive the terror within.

"You need not worry about this; he is not using this method to alter the weather for the first time."

To this, Xi Luo, who was already used to it, comforted him with complete indifference.

The abundant harvests and prosperity of Li Family Village over the past three years relied not merely on Li Li Boyang's superior seeds.

The favorable weather in the vicinity of Flying Peak in recent years was largely due to Li Li Boyang's active regulation.

In the first year, Li Li Boyang still needed to ask Xi Luo to cast Talisman and Incantation.

By the second year, after perfecting this altar, Li Li Boyang himself could alter the weather on a large scale.

The most outrageous thing was that the range and effect of Li Li Boyang's Talisman and Incantation were far superior to those of Xi Luo, the legitimate Mountain God.

The former draws upon the power of merely a single Mountain God, while the latter mobilizes the entire earth veins of Yunmeng Mountain...

"Mountain God Granny, actually I wanted to ask this long ago..."

"Are those messy 'Peace Talismans' on him also a necessary condition for this ritual?"

Tilting her head slightly, E Tu pointed at the Peace Talismans on Li Li Boyang with a strange expression and said.

It could be seen that those Peace Talismans had clearly affected Li Li Boyang's movements.

E Tu, who felt not the slightest fluctuation of primal energy from them, even thought.

If Li Li Boyang could remove those Peace Talismans, the smoothness of this ritual might improve by a few points.

"No, those are not a necessary condition for the ritual; that is just the doll's personal habit."

Seeing E Tu's confused gaze, Xi Luo spoke, half reminding and half answering.

"Didn't you notice that the doll carries a long string of Peace Talismans on him no matter the time or place?"

"Those were sought by his mother for him; he has worn them since childhood until now."

"Don't be fooled by the doll's usual appearance of being mature beyond his years..."

"... but if you truly provoke those Peace Talismans of his, you will know what is called a 'Red-Haired Ghost'."

E Tu's eyes suddenly widened in realization; only now did she realize that every time she saw Li Li Boyang, the other person seemed to have those Peace Talismans hanging on him.

"A Red-Haired Ghost?"

Unable to help but look again at Li Li Boyang on the altar, E Tu fell into thought for a moment.

He had never witnessed Li Li Boyang's anger with his own eyes.

Therefore, he could not imagine what kind of scene it would be if the gentle, refined, and all-knowing Li Li Boyang were to lose his temper.
