Chapter 308 Encircle and Kill the Demoness

"Retreat!"

Li Yan gave a low shout and quickly retreated.

On the way, they even dragged two people away.

This attack from the other party really caught him off guard.

When Divine Ability was investigating just now, he only found a secret passage, and there was a breath leaving quickly, which should be Consort Liu.

The secret passage was not deep from the ground, so he directly used lightning to break it open to prevent the other party from escaping.

I never thought that Demoness was also alert.

I didn't even expect that there were so many Cat Ghost!

His father probably died from this evil method. Li Yan naturally asked about it in detail.

Cat Ghost's technique is usually practiced in Zi Hour, because "zi" is a rat, which implies sacrifice, and this kind of sacrifice cannot be interrupted, otherwise it will be backlashed.

This method was popular in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

The most famous one is Sui Kaihuang 18th Year, the half-brother of Empress Dugu, Dugu Tuo, who was accused of using Cat Ghost to curse the queen and Yang Su's wife.

Both <Book of Sui> and <Zizhi Tongjian> have records that the maid Xu A'ni of the Dugu Tuo family confessed and demonstrated the technique of summoning Cat Ghost.

Then came the grudges between Wu Zetian and Consort Xiao. Before Consort Xiao died, he cursed, "May A Wu be a mouse and I be a cat, strangled by his throat."

Since then, the demon cat in the Daming Palace appears.

Even in <Tang Law Subcommentary>, there are laws and penalties specifically targeted at those who raise Cat Ghost.

When Cat Ghost casts a spell, the victim feels like thousands of needles piercing his heart, and dies in extreme pain. Because it is similar to an illness and is very secretive, it is forbidden again and again.

This method is very easy to suffer backlash, and sacrifices are made every day, so most people only have two or three animals, which is the limit.

Who would have thought that Demoness would raise so many, it is almost like summoning soldiers and horses.

Even if he warned quickly, someone would still fall for it.

Two Enforcement Hall, Martial Monk, and several Beggar Clan disciples were surrounded by cat footprints on the ground before they could react. They suddenly turned pale, their lips were blue, and they fell to the ground clutching their hearts, struggling and screaming.

But the white frost and cat footprints are still spreading.

"Great Wheel Mingwang Formation!"

Cheng Jue shouted angrily when he saw this, and at the same time he took off the rosary hanging around his neck, shook it slightly, and wrapped it around his arm.

Then, he picked up Convenience Shovel and thrust it on the ground.

At the same time, other monks also jumped up and came from all directions, making the same movements, holding the sticks in their hands, and suddenly stopped.

Boom!

The ground and surrounding air were shaken.

Afterwards, the monks all stared at the center and chanted sutras constantly, and no one was afraid to flinch.

They happened to form a huge circle. The whistling Yin Wind, hoarfrost, and cat footprints were all trapped in it.

Zen practice emphasizes "not setting up words, pointing directly to the human heart, seeing one's nature and becoming a Buddha". It focuses on cultivating the mind and does not rely much on external forces.

But after all, they have to suppress one party and exorcise evil spirits, so they never mind learning other methods.

For example, the Shaolin Ancestral Court has various martial arts hand seals, while Baotong Chan Temple has a variety of methods, and even Feng Shui Arts also learns them.

In Buddhism, King Ming is the wrathful body of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

Great Wheel Mingwang is one of the Esoteric Eight Great Ming Kings, so the Great Wheel Mingwang magic circle, like the Daoist Purification Altar, has the power to drive away inner demons and external evils.

When many Martial Monk are used together, their power cannot be underestimated.

The raging Cat Ghost group is also trapped in it and is difficult to break through.

But there were so many evil things that even if the Martial Monk chanted Buddhist sutras loudly, their faces would turn pale and their bodies would gradually become covered with hoarfrost.

Li Yan Seeing that the opportunity was not good, he immediately took out the ultimatum.

Now that the sky is overcast and drizzling, the opponent can release Cat Ghost, and he can also summon Yinsi soldiers and horses.

Although it is a pity, the soldiers and horses of the Yin Division are the sharpest in dealing with these things.

But at this moment, Lu San next to it moved.

The kitten in his arms had died.

No one could see the figure of Cat Ghost, and could only hear the sharp meows echoing in the air.

To their ears, it was a bit harsh.

But in Lu San's ears, there were the wails and screams of countless cats.

His face was gloomy, and he suddenly pinched out the tongue of the dead kitten in his arms, soaked it with some blood, and drew an "S"-shaped symbol on his forehead.

This is the oldest divine spell.

In those pottery pots from ancient tribes in the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period, you can often see a dense arrangement of "S" patterns.

This symbol represents the gods.

And its further evolution is Tai Chi!

After doing this, Lu San shook his head, pinched Mystical Gestures with his hands, his eyes suddenly became empty, he raised the cat's body with both hands, and suddenly Nuo Dance jumped up, making various long and short sounds and flicking sounds from his mouth.

His Nuo Dance pace actually looks a bit like Yu's steps.

Seeing this, Li Yan quickly put away the ultimatum, pulled out Severing Dust Blade with a clang, and stood beside Lu San to protect the law.

Cheng Jue was also thoughtful and looked towards Lu San.

The remaining Martial Monk concentrated on it and tried their best to support it.

With Lu San Nuo Dance, a desolate and distant atmosphere rose up, with a certain Savage Wilderness charm, echoing in everyone's ears.

What's even weirder is that all the Cat Ghost actually stopped, and the ground covered with hoarfrost and the cat's footprints stopped moving.

Soon, those cat footprints began to disappear one by one.

"Amitabha, good, good, good!"

Cheng Jue Put away Crescent Convenience Shovel, put your hands together and recite the name of the Buddha.

Everyone can see that these Cat Ghost are being transcended.

It was so fast that the monks were also shocked.

But Li Yan had some vague guesses in his mind.

Lu San practices Ancient Witchcraft<Classic of Mountains and Seas Spiritual Responses>, which is best at communicating with ghosts and gods. To put it bluntly, Cat Ghost's technique also evolved from ancient witchcraft.

One is to harm people, the other is to save the dead.

One is the evil method, and the other is the righteous method of witchcraft.

He made a judgment and was directly restrained.

"Seeking death!"

In the tunnel, a woman screamed.

The spell was broken, and Liu Niang was obviously injured. What made her even more distressed was that Cat Ghost, who had worked so hard to catch it, was wiped out.

In fact, fortunately, Lu San has a kind heart and cannot bear to hear the suffering of these poor creatures and directly saves them.

If we use our strength to control Cat Ghost in turn, we can directly cause Liu Niang to suffer backlash and be eaten away by many Cat Ghost to death.

She obviously knew this and turned around and ran away without hesitation.

"Where to escape!"

The great monk Cheng Jue shouted angrily, and his strong body roared out.

Although he awakened Body Connection, the channel had been opened by Li Yan. With his keen hearing, he could still roughly determine the direction of Liu Niang.

I saw the great monk exerting force under his feet, making two loud bang-dong sounds, and flew directly into the air. His handprint suddenly changed in mid-air, with the palm of his right hand facing downwards and his fingers naturally straightened, as if he were falling like a god.

This is Buddhist Demon Subduing Seal.

On behalf of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they subdue demonic obstacles and protect all living beings.

There was a loud bang and mud flew everywhere.

Different from Li Yan's thunder method, with the help of Buddhist seals and strong body, the ground above the secret passage was directly hit by Cheng Jue, causing it to collapse.

Whoosh!

A figure emerged from the ground.

The way forward was cut off, so Liu Niang could only escape from the ground.

Li Yan finally saw what this woman looked like.

She is not tall, has a graceful figure, and has a pretty face. She is innocent and has a hint of coquettishness, but her face is pale and there is blood at the corner of her mouth.

Judging from his age, he is at most seventeen or eighteen years old.

Although the spell backfired and injured him, his aura was still strong, and judging from his skill, he had actually stepped into Transformed Strength!

Wrong!

This woman has not returned to adulthood!

Li Yan frowned and immediately noticed something fishy.

According to the time when his father was killed, this woman would be reincarnated as a human being, at most ten years old, unless she was not reincarnated but possessed.

But if it is possessed, the Divine Soul physical body will not match it, and it will be tortured day and night. How can it still have the ability to sacrifice so many Cat Ghost?

Although he felt strange in his heart, Li Yan still Severing Dust Blade rushed out in two or three steps, blocking the opponent's escape direction.

But the one that moves faster is Cheng Jue.

"Stay!"

The great monk roared angrily, lowered his body, stepped forward, and came directly to the bottom of Liu Niang. His strong body actually resembled a dragon, and he drew an arc with his palms and suddenly rose into the air.

Sparrow Earth Dragon!

This move that Li Yan recognizes can be found in many boxing techniques, including Red Fist, which he practiced, specializing in the lower body.

But the great monk obviously uses Vajra Fist.

Liu Niang had just jumped out in the air at this time. Cheng Jue used this move very cleverly, directly grabbing the opponent's ankle.

Boom!

Without any mercy, Cheng Jue suddenly pulled Liu Niang's whole body to the ground.

If an ordinary person suffered such a blow, most of his muscles and bones would be shattered, but this Liu Niang only suffered internal injuries and spurted blood.

She also reacted very quickly. She twisted her body and, like a python, followed Cheng Jue's arms and legs, and her posture was extremely ambiguous.

This Liu Niang has stepped into Transformed Strength. This seemingly intercourse posture is actually as powerful as a python strangling.

"Demoness!"

Cheng Jue has become more profound and has reached the peak of Transformed Strength. How could he be afraid? His arms suddenly exerted force and the muscles were knotted like fine steel. No matter how hard Liu Niang tried, he could not break his arms.

At the same time, Cheng Jue's other palm suddenly shot out.

The palm of his hand was congested and red, as if it had swelled, and it was whistling with the sound of wind. It was Vajra Palm.

This palm strike can directly break Liu Niang's legs.

However, Liu Niang suddenly opened his mouth, puffed out a large stream of red smoke, and covered Cheng Jue's body.

At the same time, she also twisted her body and jumped out in some weird posture to avoid Cheng Jue's palm.

Cheng Jue groaned, but without saying a word, he immediately sat cross-legged, placing his hands on his lower abdomen with his palms upward, his right hand on his left hand, and the tips of his two thumbs touching.

This is Buddhist Samadhi Seal, which can protect the mind.

Li Yan naturally knows why the other party gave up.

There was something strange about that red mist. He was still ten meters away, but when he smelled just a hint of it, he felt his nose was getting clogged, and he was already looking up.

What a powerful aphrodisiac!

"It's poisonous, don't come near it!"

Li Yan shouted loudly and quickly held his breath.

As he spoke, he exerted force on his feet, as if shrinking to an inch. He came to Liu Niang in two steps and stabbed him out with a knife.

"Hahaha..."

Liu Niang let out a wild laugh. His body seemed to have no bones. He used a completely counterintuitive posture to easily avoid Severing Dust Blade. At the same time, he kicked Li Yan directly in the head with his other foot.

At the same time, she kept teasing and sarcastic, "Boy, your father was killed by me back then. It's a pity that he didn't know who he provoked until his death..."

Li Yan repeatedly sabotaged the ghost sect's plan, especially killing "Red Woman", so when he left Dangyang County, his information had been spread.

When he came to Wuchang, Liu Niang naturally knew that it was Liu Niang who gave the order when he sent Meishan Three Brothers out to ambush him.

These words are meant to disturb Li Yan's mind.

However, although Li Yan's face was gloomy, his eyes were always calm. In his hand, Severing Dust Blade slashed left, lifted up, and swept... one knife was faster than the other.

Although Liu Niang's movement skills are stronger than Li Yan's, under this sharp knife, he cannot escape at all.

On the other side, Cheng Jue was meditating. The roaring wind around him had blown away the red mist, and the red skin all over his body was gradually returning to normal.

Enforcement Hall Martial Monk all around have also gathered around.

There was also Lu San, holding the dead kitten in his hands, staring at her, muttering to himself, obviously casting a spell.

Liu Niang could clearly feel that a cold murderous intent was pouring out from his heart. The injury that was originally broken by the Cat Ghost technique began to backfire.

"Seeking death!"

Liu Niang suddenly became anxious and dodged away from Severing Dust Blade. Like a python, it crossed its legs and directly wrapped around Li Yan's body.

The posture was a bit ambiguous, but murderous intent was sharp, and it was clearly intended to use strong force to directly break Li Yan's spine.

Her Kungfu is more like the yoga techniques from Shendu (ancient India), but it is also mixed with some insidious tricks.

However, this is what Li Yan has been waiting for.

Wow!

Soul Hooking Chain roared out.

This Liu Niang movement technique was strange and astonishing. Li Yan was afraid that the opponent would avoid it, so he did not use Soul Hooking Chain immediately.

Now that the other party is actively entangled, there is no time to escape.

Sure enough, Soul Hooking Chain rolled over, and Liu Niang suddenly froze, his pupils quickly lost focus, and fell softly from Li Yan's body.

As Li Yan expected, Demoness did have some kind of amulet on him, and Soul Hooking Chain was also hindered.

However, his Soul Hooking Chain has already been improved.

The method I learned from Liu Gang is to absorb the bone claws left by the ancient night owl, and break the opponent's weapon with just a slight shake.

Without any hesitation, Li Yan slashed the opponent's hands and feet with his backhand several times, and then pierced his pubic area with another knife.

No matter what the other party's skills were, the Dantian was broken, unable to circulate Qi and blood, and the hands and feet were cut off, leaving no chance of escape.

The other party knows a lot of information, so naturally he has to ask questions first before killing him.

After doing this, Li Yan put Soul Hooking Chain away, held the knife in his hand, and shook off the blood stains on the knife.

"Ah!"

Liu Niang woke up and suddenly screamed.

All she felt was that her vision went dark. After she regained consciousness, she had lost her arms and legs, and there were bursts of severe pain in her pubic area.

As if knowing that it would be difficult to escape, Liu Niang's eyes were full of madness. He held back the pain and stared at Li Yan. He gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, just wait. When I come back, I will make you want to die..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

This Demoness actually poisoned himself. Now his heart has long been broken and his breath is getting weaker and weaker.

Li Yan frowned and immediately knew his plan.

Zhao Changsheng has mastered the method of helping people return their Yang, and at worst, they will die, and then return to the world through the secret method.

Li Yan glanced coldly, and Soul Hooking Chain roared out again, drawing out a ball of icy aura directly from the opponent's body, and crushed it without hesitation.

"It's a beautiful thought..."

The second is later
