Gold Core Is A Star, You Call This Cultivating Immortality?

Chapter 174: Qi Qi: He must be a majestic deity

"Feihuang City's Nan Gongwuji, seeking an audience with the deity!" The old man in Confucian robes was incredibly powerful, capable of easily killing a town's deity with a wave of his hand.

But this time, when he came to see the deity of Qingshui Village, his attitude was extremely respectful.

At this moment, Qi Yuan, who was eating his meal, looked up and saw Nan Gongwuji. "You're here to eat too, come sit, eat whatever you want."

Nan Gongwuji looked at Qi Yuan, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Because he didn't sense a strong divine aura from Qi Yuan.

This meant that this deity's level was actually quite low.

"I'll be disrespectful." Nan Gongwuji walked over.

Huang Mengying also followed curiously. She was curious about how this new deity killed the deity of Shijia Village.

She was also curious why a deity would sit and eat with these ordinary people.

She had seen many deities, and while their strength may not have been very strong, they considered themselves noble and would never sit with mortals.

This deity was a bit too down-to-earth.

Nan Gongwuji and Huang Mengling arrived, and the villagers quickly brought them chairs and utensils.

The villagers all looked at the old man and the woman with curiosity.

After all, they were important figures from the city.

"Is the adult the newest born deity?" Huang Mengling couldn't help but ask.

If she remembered correctly, the deity of Qingshui Village was a grass deity, not in human form.

"Sort of." Qi Yuan was too busy eating.

To be honest, he had been fasting in the Ash Water World, so no matter how good the food was, it all tasted the same to him.

Or maybe it was because he was getting older.

But eating in Shijia Village brought back the taste of his childhood.

"Why did Venerable suddenly kill the new deity of Shijia Village?" the old man in Confucian robes, Nan Gongwuji, asked.

Generally speaking, any deity could be called Venerable.

Nan Gongwuji calling him that was like meeting a deputy director and calling him director.

Huang Mengying was also very puzzled.

Nowadays, almost no one dares to provoke the new deities in Feihuang City.

There are very few who dare to attack the evil deities.

"I just arrived here and was a bit hungry. My territory is so poor. What do you do when you're hungry? You can't just steal other people's food, that's no different from bandits. So I came up with a plan. When someone dies, isn't there a feast? Is there a big meal to eat? I killed their deity, and now they're having a feast. It seems that my idea was right." Qi Yuan said matter-of-factly, happily eating his meal.

Nan Gongwuji was stunned when he heard this.

Huang Mengying was completely at a loss.

This reason sounded too absurd.

She naturally didn't believe it.

However, Huang Mengying still said, "Venerable, killing the evil deity of Shijia Village... I'm afraid it will provoke the evil deity of Kuangfeng Town."

Shijia Village is under the jurisdiction of Kuangfeng Town, and the relationship between the two evil deities is like that of a superior and subordinate.

"If I offend, then I offend." Qi Yuan didn't care at all.

After eating the feast for a few days, the hunger in his stomach gradually dissipated, and it was time to continue eating the feast.

No, killing monsters.

"The deity of Kuangfeng Town has a cultivation level far surpassing that of the evil deity of Shijia Village. Mr. Nan Gongwuji was injured by that evil deity." Huang Mengying said with a look of sorrow.

Qi Yuan looked at the old man.

[Nan Gongwuji, divine creature, Level 82.]

"Sure, you're qualified to play the suona for me. My band is still missing one person. Do you want to come?" Qi Yuan looked at Nan Gongwuji expectantly.

Nan Gongwuji's strength, according to the classification of the Ash Water World, could be considered Violet Palace Late Stage.

I didn't expect to see a cultivator at the Violet Palace Late Stage coming to eat a feast in a village.

This world is deep.

After all, he had been running around in the Great Shang Kingdom, and it was difficult to even encounter a Divine Infant Late Stage cultivator.

Nan Gongwuji heard this and was a bit confused by Qi Yuan's words, but he just smiled awkwardly. "What Miss Huang said is true. Venerable killed the evil deity, completely offending the evil deity's lineage. Perhaps it won't be long before the evil deity's minions come here."

"I am the daughter of the lord of Feihuang City. Venerable might as well leave Qingshui Village and come to Feihuang City. I will establish a temple and build a statue for Venerable!" Huang Mengying was trying to win over Qi Yuan and also save his life.

In the outside world, any ancient deity who dared to kill a new deity would be surrounded and killed by the new deities, with an extremely tragic end.

"No, please don't mention this again. I won't leave Qingshui Village." Qi Yuan waved his hand.

His task is to protect Qingshui Village, how could he leave.

Seeing Qi Yuan's reaction, Huang Mengying knew she couldn't persuade him, so she could only sigh.

She had already explained the seriousness of the situation, but the other party didn't listen, and she couldn't do anything about it.

She felt a bit regretful, the power of Feihuang City was still too weak.

Otherwise, how could the new god be so carefree.

"This is pig ear, eat it." Qi Yuan picked up a piece of pig ear and handed it to Nangong Wuji.

Nangong Wuji smiled and refused, "I don't eat meat."

Qi Yuan was taken aback, "Are you a monk? No, your hair is quite thick. Are you a vegetarian?"

Nangong Wuji didn't understand Qi Yuan's words and said, "I am a follower of the Mother of No Food."

Seeing Qi Yuan's puzzled expression, Huang Mengying explained, "The Mother of No Food is a powerful ancient god. She believes that when a person is born, they are purest, but as they experience the world, they become impure. Eating food, cultivating spiritual energy, inhaling and exhaling air, all harm the body and pollute oneself. Only by abstaining from food and separating oneself from the world can one cultivate the true self!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan didn't know how to evaluate it for a moment, "This Mother of No Food seems to have some issues."

Nangong Wuji didn't get angry at this judgment.

Because almost everyone didn't have a favorable view of his beliefs.

And he wasn't truly abstaining from food either.

At the table, Huang Mengying ate a lot, while Nangong Wuji simply drank some water.

Finally, after the meal, Huang Mengying said, "If Venerable encounters any difficulties, you can come to Feihuang City. The gates of Feihuang City will always be open for Venerable."

"Okay." Qi Yuan nodded and remembered Huang Mengying's words.

Watching Huang Mengying and Nangong Wuji leave, Qi Yuan sat at the table.

He spoke, "Whose banquet should we hold tomorrow?"

The burly man Wang Chongshan quickly said, "Lord God, it's Shigangqiang."

"Okay, make it more grand." Qi Yuan waved his hand.

At this moment, Wang Chongshan's face showed a troubled expression, "We don't have much pork in Shijia Village... We've slaughtered several pigs these past few days for the banquets. With hundreds of people eating every day, it's quite abundant in food supplies, but the pigs are gone."

"No more pigs?" Qi Yuan frowned upon hearing this, "Which nearby village has more pigs?"

...

Kuangfeng Town.

Whispering sounds.

"Lord Maling, can you capture Nangong Wuji?" The man dressed in luxurious silk clothes looked very wealthy.

Inside the temple, the statue of the god opened its eyes, "His strength is formidable, let him escape. But I have also severely injured him, he won't be able to fight against strong opponents for three years."

The wealthy man's face brightened, "It has to be Lord Maling."

"When will you be able to welcome the arrival of that Venerable?" the evil god Maling asked.

The Venerable he mentioned is a new god, also known as a true god.

The wealthy man showed a troubled expression, "Currently, Feihuang City is still under the control of the City Lord. We also don't know if the ancient god Yuan is still alive. This matter needs to be carefully considered."

"You need to be faster," the evil god Maling spoke with a violent tone.

The wealthy man's heart tightened, and he quickly said, "Rest assured, within three years, we will definitely bring out the new god."

The evil god Maling's gaze surged, "Too slow, too slow."

The wealthy man didn't dare to speak.

But in his heart, he complained.

If you think it's too slow, why don't you invade Feihuang City?

Is it because you don't want to?

Of course, he wouldn't say these words out loud.

Thinking of something, the wealthy man said, "Recently, I received an order. There is a woman related to the ancient god who has wandered into the area near Kuangfeng Town. I ask Lord Maling to take her down."

"Ancient god? Which one?"

"I don't know, probably... a true god."

"A true god? I will remember that. What is her name and what does she look like?"

"Her name is... Qi Qi, this is her portrait."

...

In the dark mountain road, the young girl Qi Qi's eyes were determined.

Beside her, the maid Xiaoxue was panting, "Miss, how much longer until we arrive?"

"According to the map, we're almost there." Qi Qi's gaze was resolute.

She comes from a prominent family.

When she was young, an evil god descended and all her clan members perished.

Only she survived with the clan's token and now she is heading to a remote village.

According to the record on the clan's token, the statue in that remote village was crafted by her clan members.

Within the statue, there is a treasure called the Yin Birthstone.

This treasure... can create a true god!

Now, the new gods are clashing with the old gods.

The old gods have always been at a disadvantage because the new gods are constantly emerging.

And when an old god perishes, it is a complete demise, with no new old gods being born.

Ten thousand years ago, there was a great change in the world, and the divine creatures in this world could no longer break through their own limits and enter the realm of true gods.

So, if an old god is lost, it is a complete loss.

Of course, there are still scattered treasures in this world, like the Yin Birthstone, that can help people enter the realm of true gods.

However, such treasures are very rare.

So, the increase in old gods is far lower than the number of old gods that have perished.

Qi Qi came to Qingshui Village this time to take the Yin Birthstone from the statue.

In doing so, she would be able to create a new old god.

Perhaps, she could also avenge her clan members.

"Miss, is what the old woman we met on the road before said true?" the maid asked, thinking of something.

Some time ago, they encountered a crazy old woman on the road.

That old woman said that Qi Qi came from a noble background and wanted Qi Qi to go with her.

Naturally, Qi Qi did not follow the crazy old woman.

She smiled self-deprecatingly, "My parents are dead. Even if I come from a noble background, what's the use?"

The maid, Xiao Xue, nodded in agreement.

But then she continued, "Miss, if the guardian deity of Qingshui Village is still there, how do we get his statue?"

Generally speaking, to obtain something from a statue, one needs the consent of the deity.

After all, to the deities, the statue is their second body.

"I brought a treasure this time that can create an even more precious statue.

When I create the statue, I can then make a trade with that deity.

And, I also have a token, hehe." Qi Qi's eyes lit up when she mentioned this.

When the ancestors created the statue, they made an agreement with the deity.

However, Qi Qi's gaze became somewhat disappointed as she thought of something, "I heard that Qingshui Village is about to be destroyed, maybe we won't be able to see that deity.

That statue might also be empty, without a deity residing in it."

Now, an evil god has descended and the old and new gods are in conflict.

The old gods have always been at a disadvantage.

Many villages have long become playgrounds for the evil gods.

All the people have lost their consciousness and become like puppets, only knowing to worship the evil gods and becoming a part of them.

Just like Shijia Village, given another hundred years to that evil god.

The villagers of Shijia Village will slowly turn into walking corpses and become a part of the evil god.

And the power of the evil god itself has greatly increased.

After a few hours, Qi Qi and her maid Xiao Xue finally arrived at Qingshui Village.

Looking at the dilapidated village, Qi Qi's eyes showed a pained expression.

Originally, the mortal realm was a place where everyone lived in peace and prosperity.

But now... on one hand, they suffer unbearably, and on the other hand... they all turn into walking corpses.

"Granny, where are the villagers of Qingshui Village and the great deity?" Qi Qi saw an old woman and immediately went up to ask.

The old woman looked at Qi Qi with caution, "Who are you?"

"Granny, my name is Qi Qi, from Tianfu..."

"Tianfu?" The old woman looked at Qi Qi, confirmed her bloodline, and her eyes filled with sorrow, "Are you also of the bloodline of the ancient clan?"

Ten years ago, when the evil god descended, the people of Tianfu refused to worship the gods.

The gods were angry and the city was destroyed, turning Tianfu into a wasteland, and all the people died in battle.

And the people of Tianfu also had the bloodline of the ancient clan, and they refused to worship the new gods.

The old woman naturally trusted women with the same bloodline.

"Yes." Qi Qi nodded, her expression devoid of joy or sorrow.

"Our villagers, under the leadership of the great deity, went to attack the evil god in Chenxi Village.

The evil god said that there are many pigs in Chenxi Village, so it would be a good feast to kill the evil god." This old woman had a straightforward personality, and her mouth was watering as she spoke, completely different from her previous sorrow.

Qi Qi was stunned by her words.

How does this match up?

She was also puzzled. How could the deity of Qingshui Village go to attack the evil god?

Could it be that this deity is somewhat powerful?

However, the statues in Qingshui Village were all created by the Qi family. She knew very well what level they were. How could a powerful deity be born there?

"Grandmother, where is Chenxi Village?" Qi Qi couldn't help but ask.

"Follow the main road ahead, walk straight for three miles, and when you see a pavilion, turn right..."

"Thank you, grandmother!" Qi Qi hurriedly rushed to Chenxi Village with her maid Xiaoxue.

On the way, Xiaoxue's face showed a puzzled expression. "Miss, why is the deity of Qingshui Village so audacious, daring to attack the evil god?"

Feihuang City... almost all of it is an occupied area!

Currently, the evil gods and ancient gods are in fierce conflict, and many battlefields have been opened up.

Different battlefields have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Overall, the new gods are more powerful.

Feihuang City, on the other hand, belongs to the occupied area.

Most of the cities near Feihuang City have been occupied by the new gods.

In such an environment, the ancient gods have always been at a disadvantage.

Therefore, many of these ancient gods choose not to resist or rebel.

Some even choose to become minions of the new gods.

It is unexpected that the deity of Qingshui Village dares to attack the evil god.

"Perhaps the deity of Qingshui Village is also a Venerable with great righteousness, unwilling to see the evil god slaughter sentient beings!" Qi Qi had not yet seen the deity of Qingshui Village, but she already admired it in her heart.

She felt that this was a great deity, willing to sacrifice itself for the sake of the world.

Such ancient gods may be more likely to die in the mortal realm.

But they are definitely worthy of admiration.

"Such a Venerable is the most likely to attract the wrath of the evil gods, while those ancient gods who live by compromising and joining the new gods can live longer. This world is so unfair!" Xiaoxue couldn't help but sigh.

The two of them quickened their pace and headed towards Chenxi Village.

At this moment, suddenly, a hurried voice came.

"You, a Divine Infant cultivator, can't even catch a pig!"

"Hurry up and catch these pigs, otherwise how can we have a feast!"

Qi Qi and Xiaoxue looked over and saw a large group of pigs running towards them frantically.

These pigs were all well-built and had cultivation bases, mostly at the Primal Core stage.

These pigs were running wildly, stirring up dust.

Behind hundreds of pigs, a handsome man with a long sword on his back was standing with his hands in his pockets, stepping on a fat domestic pig with his left foot, cursing loudly.

"If it weren't for the need to catch them alive, I would have beheaded all these pigs with a single sword," the handsome man said, emanating a divine radiance.

Qi Qi widened her eyes, "Is he the deity of Qingshui Village?"

Maid Xiaoxue also froze.

Just now, they had imagined the majestic image of the deity of Qingshui Village in their minds, but now they were being told that he was catching pigs?

"Hey, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and help stop the pigs. I'll reward you with a pig tail to eat!" Qi Yuan shouted from a distance.

Shen Tu also held a pig in one hand and looked at Qi Qi for help.

Helpless, Qi Qi took out a formation plate from her pocket.

The Nine Heavens Yin Yang Dragon Formation!

As soon as this formation plate appeared, the space around Qi Qi changed dramatically. Over a hundred golden-armored gods appeared, holding long spears and advancing with a dignified expression.

"Trap!"

The hundred golden-armored gods shouted, and their long spears turned into immortal ropes, binding all the running pigs.

Qi Yuan saw this and couldn't help but applaud, "Well done, well done. I'll reward you with a pig's head later."

Upon hearing this, Qi Qi felt a bit embarrassed.

Such a powerful formation was actually used by her to trap pigs.

At this moment, Village Chief Yulei and the priest Shentu walked over, giving Qi Qi an appreciative look.

"The little girl is impressive!"

"You've got skills. You said you would stop them, and you did it with hundreds of pigs."

Being praised by these people, Qi Qi's toes curled up, feeling like she could dig out a villa.

"Hehe, it's a small matter." Qi Qi smiled awkwardly and politely.

She smiled and watched as the villagers lifted the pigs. She walked towards the incredibly handsome man, trying hard to remain calm.

However, when she saw the pigs howling at his feet, her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Venerable, are you the guardian deity of Qingshui Village? I am Qi Qi, coming from Tianfu."

PS: Regarding updates, the update time is actually not stable, really not being lazy. This month, I counted it, including today's release, it's already 310,000 words, almost 10,000 words per day.

The update time is not stable, and I'm really sorry, but because of the daily 10,000 words, the workload is quite large. The author is clumsy and can't guarantee the time.

Status, inspiration, and so on will all affect the updates.

If I forcefully update, I can actually release it on time every day, but what I write might just be a mess. I feel sorry for everyone's subscription, and I can't justify it to myself.

Of course, my skills are limited, and writing seriously is better than blindly rushing.

Sorry, the author will try to work on some drafts to stabilize the update time.
