Half a month later, inside the Purification Realm.
The Central Sect Master pressed her palms together. Before her stood a Red-Haired Evil Ghost a thousand zhang tall. With her eyes closed, the Central Sect Master chanted Buddhist Sound, while magnificent golden light surged from behind her. In an instant, the golden light enveloped the Red-Haired Evil Ghost. It writhed violently, but under the Central Sect Master's Buddhist Sound, it gradually calmed down.
After a full hour, the golden light vanished, and the thousand-zhang Red-Haired Evil Ghost was finally refined. It transformed into a golden giant ghost, bowed respectfully to the Central Sect Master, then stepped into the sky and flew toward the golden pillar of heaven.
Watching the converted giant ghost depart, the Central Sect Master let out a long breath.
She gently wiped the sweat from her forehead and muttered solemnly, "It seems it's time to merge the corpses. It's just that Zhong Tian and the others are progressing too slowly. The time isn't right yet!"
Elsewhere, inside a great hall in the Purification Realm, Xuan Old's voice suddenly rang out.
"We found it!"
Inside the great hall was a huge pool shaped like an "eye," with sinister Black Qi billowing from within. Ordinary people would have had no idea what was special about it, but Xuan Old had found what he wanted through this mass of Black Qi.
"Where is it?" Huang Old asked solemnly from the side.
"This 'Nether Qi Sea'... Corpse Mister actually managed to find the Purification Realm's Nether Qi Sea? How could he know the Purification Realm so well?" Xuan Old said with an ugly expression.
"The Nether Qi Sea? He really knows how to pick a place. I've already summoned a hundred ghost gods. Since we've found them, there's no time to lose.
