This Taoist Master is too Frivolous-Chapter 436 - 305: Mana increase too fierce, can’t hold it down anymore!

Chapter 436: Chapter 305: Mana increase too fierce, can’t hold it down anymore!

The storytelling blind old man started, and nearly started a fight in the lobby on the first floor.

These ghosts seemed to be divided into two factions.

One group said that the “Emperor Dongyue” had fallen during that turmoil.

Another group said that “Emperor Dongyue” didn’t die but only disappeared, perhaps to reincarnate.

“Ahem, ahem.”

The old blind man coughed dryly and said, “Gentlemen, do not argue. It’s already nighttime, and we shouldn’t disturb the soldiers outside.”

With this remark, the arguing ghosts quieted down.

The old blind man took a sip of tea and asked, “Everyone knows about Emperor Dongyue, but does anyone know his other names?”

“I know! I know!”

A clever little ghost jumped up and shouted, “Emperor Dongyue is also known as Emperor of Dongyue. He presides over life and death, fortune and misfortune, and controls the netherworld. He is commanded by heaven and has the power to erase sins and redress injustices, connecting heaven and earth. He is the supreme divine spirit of our Underworld Palace!”

The old blind man asked further, “What is Dongyue?”

This time, the ghosts fell silent.

They were native souls of the Underworld Palace, so they were only familiar with the landscape of their world. Inside the Underworld Palace, there was no “Dongyue.”

From the second floor box, Xu Yang timely laughed and said, “Dongyue is located in the human world, known as Mount Tai, the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains.”

The storytelling blind man looked up at the second floor.

His eyes were blind.

White filled his eyes, making it seem as if a layer of fog covered his pupils, which was very eerie.

He laughed and said, “The gentleman is correct. Dongyue is Mount Tai, the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains in the human world. Mount Tai is the ancestral mountain of all mountains, the center of the Five Sacred Mountains, the grandson of the Heavenly Emperor, and the mansion of divine spirits.”

“In the human world’s myths and legends, it is believed that Emperor Dongyue is the incarnation of Mount Tai, connecting the human and divine world. That’s why Emperor Dongyue is also called the Deity of Mount Tai and is known as the Emperor of Dongyue.”

“As for the origin of Emperor Dongyue… There is a strange book in the human world called the ‘Book of Divine Wonders,’ which records: At the end of Pan Gu’s world, his son was named He Tian. During that time, there were three emperors. He Tian lived on a mountain and passed on from generation to generation. Hence, the mountain is called Mount Tai, or Daizong Taishan.”

“He Tian had a son named Qian Bo, whose son Xuan Mo gave birth to two sons. The eldest was named Golden Wheel King, and the youngest was Shao Hai. Shao Hai’s wife was Fairy Milun, who dreamt of swallowing two suns and woke up pregnant. She gave birth to two sons. The eldest was Jin Chanshi, later known as Emperor Donghua, and the youngest was Jin Hongshi, later known as Emperor Dongyue.”

“What the hell!”

A startled ghost exclaimed, “So, Emperor Dongyue is the great-grandson of the Pan Gu god?”

The storytelling blind old man stroked his beard and sipped his tea.

On the second floor box.

Xu Yang frowned and couldn’t help but speak, “The Book of Divine Wonders was compiled by Dongfang Shuo of the Han Dynasty. It is considered an ancient mythological story, and the accounts are a mix of truth and falsehood. How can we know if it’s true? Opinions on the origins of Emperor Dongyue vary. There’s the ‘Tai Hao Theory,’ the ‘Pan Gu Incarnation Theory,’ the ‘Grandson of Heaven and Earth Theory’… How can you be sure that Emperor Dongyue is indeed Pan Gu’s great-grandson Jin Hongshi?”

The old man, stroking his beard, laughed and said, “Since the gentleman knows that the Book of Divine Wonders was compiled by Dongfang Shuo, do you also know the origins of Dongfang Shuo?”

Xu Yang paused.

Dongfang Shuo.

Anyone who knows a little history should know him… Even if they don’t know history, they should recognize him if they’ve seen ‘The Great Han Emperor’!

But to talk about his other origins, Xu Yang wasn’t so sure. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

He looked down through the small window of the booth and asked, “Old sir, does Dongfang Shuo have any other origins or connections? Please enlighten me!”

Laughing, the old blind man said, “Dongfang Shuo was originally an immortal boy under the Heavenly Empress’s seat. He was banished to the human world for stealing immortality peaches and became a minister of Emperor Wu of Han. Upon the end of his earthly life, he ascended to immortality again and became a disciple of Emperor Donghua.”

He took a sip of tea.

Stroking his beard, the old blind man with his entirely white eyes stared at the second floor and continued, “Emperor Donghua Jin Chanshi and Emperor Dongyue Jin Hongshi are brothers, and Dongfang Shuo is a disciple of Emperor Donghua. How could the ‘Book of Divine Wonders’ he compiled be wrong?”

On the second floor.

Xu Yang was silent.

The old man stood up, left quietly with his little granddaughter, and left the wine house.

By the time Xu Yang came to his senses, the old man had already left.

Xu Yang walked out of the booth, stood by the railing on the second floor, and looked at the lobby on the first floor. There was no trace of the old man left.

Liu Shishi walked over, curious, and asked, “Husband, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Xu Yang shook his head, “I just thought that the storytelling old man was a bit strange… He’s so knowledgeable about human myths. Could he be a ghost from the human world?”

Actually.

There was still a doubt in Xu Yang’s heart.

The myths of the human world have been passed down through so many generations. Many versions have emerged, and many stories’ authenticity is questionable.

But this old blind man seemed very certain.

Moreover, Xu Yang just tried to probe him but didn’t sense any aura from the old blind man!

Xu Yang’s primordial spirit was pure Yang, and as for his divine consciousness, he was even stronger than Dao cultivators in the Spirit Refining Realm.

Even if it was a Ghost Immortal in front of him, they wouldn’t be able to escape his detection!

This meant that the old blind man’s strength was probably even beyond that of Ghost Immortals!

Above Ghost Immortals would be the truly “immortal” beings.

Black and White Impermanence are of this level.

Such a powerful figure would be considered an expert in the Underworld Palace. Joining the realm of the Underworld, they could easily hold high positions. If the owner of the winery, Wang Shiren, could support such a large family in Fengdu City as a mere Ghost Immortal, an existence stronger than Ghost Immortal wouldn’t need to be a storyteller for a living, would they?
