Chapter 32 The Downpour of June 19th!

Chapter 34 The King of Embers

The so-called King of Embers is originally the title of Yama, the King of Hell, in Buddhist scriptures. He is the ruler of hell and the name also means "the one who binds sinners!"

When the giant Jukou Devil heard the three calls of the King of Embers, the Daoist's voice shook the heavens and the earth, and it immediately became frightened and fearful!

It let out a deafening cry of horror, no different from a human voice, just a loud "Wah-yah!"

Then it crashed through the red palace walls, destroying the buildings of the Forbidden City. Its body, as tall as a tree and three to five stories high, which was originally half-hunchbacked, now straightened up and began to flee towards the northwest of the Forbidden City!

"Jukou Devil! Where are you going? Come back quickly!"

The two attendants were taken aback and scolded loudly, but the Jukou Devil was completely terrified and ignored the calls of the two children. It only cared about escaping, smashing through a dozen palace walls, and was about to rush out of the Forbidden City. Its huge figure could no longer be seen clearly here!

The sudden change caught them off guard!

The Jukou Devil only manifested itself with the help of the Taruo Tree. It was originally going to be used as firewood to burn the flames of ignorance! After the people's incense replaced the great fire of the Forbidden City, the Fire Lord would arrive, using the Sacred Fire of Taiyin as a guide, and the Taruo Tree as firewood.

But now this "firewood"... The big pot on the stove was still cooking the emperor, the fire was burning, but the firewood had grown legs and ran away!

Who on earth knew what the Jukou Devil was afraid of! King of Embers was one of the titles of Yama, and nothing would happen as long as this title was not chanted. Moreover, even cultivators, even those in the Buddhist sect, might not know that this title had an effect on the Jukou Devil!

A word, under specific circumstances, might have an extraordinary effect on certain ghosts and gods, but the world's classics were as vast as the sea, and learning was a lifelong journey. Who could finish reading so many books in one lifetime!

While the two children were still in a daze, Emperor Wanli and his entourage were overjoyed!

"Your Majesty, there's a passage!"

Luo Sigong, the Southern Governor, was overjoyed and quickly spoke to Emperor Wanli, indicating that everyone could now escape from behind, and perhaps even go straight to the outside of the Forbidden City!

Then they could call for reinforcements!

Emperor Wanli was also pleasantly surprised. Although he didn't know where the loud shout just now came from, it was more important to walk and think at the same time!

You demonic slaves, when I get out and find teammates, I will come back and kill you all!

"That voice just now was..."

"It must be the Daoist priest from Longde Hall! This place can be left to the Daoist priest. Your Majesty, we can't affect those gods and monsters here. Let the Daoist priest deal with them!"

"Good! Wudang Mountain has sent someone useful this time!"

Emperor Wanli's spirit was also lifted. Seeing the hope of survival, he could finally escape. At this time, the two children also came back to their senses. The faces of the two delicate dolls were now twisted, and flames rose.

"A'lian! Stop pretending to be dead on the ground, and quickly stop His Majesty!"

As soon as these words fell, all the charred corpses of the palace maids and eunuchs lying in the fire in the entire West Second Long Street jumped up, like dancing on graves. These palace maids and eunuchs were extremely fast, using their limbs, crawling on the ground like ghosts!

Emperor Wanli and his entourage were terrified!

Was this kind of art too early for the Ming Dynasty?

Consort Zheng and Empress Wang almost vomited, but this wasn't over! The corpses of the palace maids and eunuchs quickly blocked the escape passage smashed open by the Jukou Devil!

A fire broke out, blocking the fire escape!

"Get out of my way!"

Emperor Wanli also knew that his imperial power made these gods and monsters afraid, and he had also heard the explanation from the two children, knowing that if he approached these gods and monsters and shouted loudly, he could shock them to death.

But the A'lians were not fools either. They manipulated the corpses of the palace maids and eunuchs, and didn't just stand there. When they reached the door, they hid directly inside these mortal bodies, and then threw themselves to the ground!

Hiding in the body and not showing their true form, the mortal body could isolate the emperor's roar. All they had to do was pretend to be dead!

Splatter, splatter, countless corpses piled up into a small hill, attacking each other!

Then, this pile of corpses was filled with raging fire. These flames were real flames, the great fire of the fire disaster, not generated by mana!

A hot wind swept over, and suddenly a volcanic hell blocked the path of Emperor Wanli and the others!

"A'lian, well done!"

The two children clapped their hands happily, and said to Emperor Wanli and the others who were blocked again:

"Your Majesty, don't worry! The Fire Lord hasn't arrived yet, how can you leave first? That's impolite!"

"The guest arrives, but the host is not there, and instead flees in panic? Strange, strange!"

This almost made Emperor Wanli's three souls ascend to heaven! He even pulled up his long sleeves, as if he wanted to go up and hit someone!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, calm down!"

Forget it, Your Majesty, they are what you gave birth to... what you enfeoffed! You can't beat them right now!

Luo Sigong and Tian Yi quickly pulled Emperor Wanli, fearing that he would be overwhelmed by anger at this time and make some shocking move.

Emperor Wanli raised his fist to the sky in anger!

Crack!

With a loud bang, a thunderbolt suddenly struck in the sky!

Everyone was stunned.

Emperor Wanli was also stunned, retracting his hand and looking at his fist.

When did I have this ability? Could it be that my hidden ability has been developed?

I understand, I am the Thunder God.

Otherwise, how could there be such a magnificent thunder in this cloudless night sky!

It's also reasonable. Emperor Chengzu could be Zhenwu, Emperor Shizong could be a flying immortal, so why couldn't I, Wanli, be the Thunder God?

So he tried raising his fist again, and the sound of thunder immediately rolled in the sky!

Emperor Wanli was shocked, but he soon discovered that it wasn't that he had any special abilities, because four talismans flew from the sky!

The two children looked up at the sky in surprise!

..........

The four talismans rolled up incense and ascended to the heavens with the wind!

The talisman characters on the talismans shone brightly in the air!

(The Heavenly Emperor receives the wind, and issues orders to the sky; By your name, in my palm!)

(Grasp the heaven and earth, all protect my body; Thunder Master comes and goes, knowing your name!)

The magic sword pointed to the high sky!

Ji Xiang looked solemn and serious, and said softly:

"Wind, come!"

That's not all!

(Five Emperors and Five Dragons, descend light and travel with the wind; Spread wide the moistening rain, assist the Thunder Duke!)

(Five lakes and four seas, water flows to the court; The divine talisman commands you, Changchuan, to obey!)

The magic sword pointed to the high sky a second time!

Ji Xiang said again:

"Rain, come!"

Whoosh! Gale and rainstorm, heavenly sound of thunder!

A vast wind rose in the eastern sky, as if a Heavenly Emperor had opened a wind bag;

A rumbling thunder echoed in the middle sky, as if a Thunder Master was beating a large drum;

Following closely behind, five dragon roars shook the heavens and the earth!

From the time Ji Xiang entered Yongning Palace, to killing the Three Fire Gods, driving away the Jukou Devil, and then summoning wind and rain, the time taken was exactly one quarter of an hour. (fifteen minutes)

Because the fire disaster had been contained, the people's incense pouring in from outside could not replace the fire disaster at this time, causing the Fire Lord at this moment to be blocked outside the Shenwu Gate.

Of course, the Fire Lord was only blocked for a moment, and was now coming here.

So everything came together.

So at this moment, the two of water and fire were about to meet, incompatible with each other!

......

A wild goose descended,投投(tou tou, sound of flapping wings) towards the end of the sky, myriad mountains floated in the first rain!

June 19th, great wind and rain!
