Zhen Gui

The old man looked at Xin Ning with excitement.

Seeing this, Gongya stepped forward and stood in front of Xin Ning, saying:

Who are you?

The old man immediately composed himself, coughed, and said:

"Young lady, we...we are the Celestial Masters of the Three Dou Mi Dao. My name is Li Jiang, and this is my disciple Lin Jiuzheng ..."

"I see your sister has extraordinary talent and a bright future, and I wish to take her as my disciple, thus bestowing upon her a great destiny..."

He didn't try to hide anything and revealed his origins!

The Three Dou Mi Dao!

Upon hearing this, Gongya immediately frowned!

"The Three Dou Mi Dao... is one of the lineages of the Celestial Master Dao in the Immortal Realm, but the Celestial Master Dao has never had Dao Lineage in the lower realms..."

She looked at Xin Ning with a puzzled expression.

Xin Ning tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said:

Can a Daoist priest exorcise ghosts?

"Of course, little girl!"

Li Jiang spoke to Xin Ning with utmost solemnity:

"If you become my disciple, I will teach you the supreme Dao of Talismans and make you a female celestial master. How about that? Not bad, right?"

Xin Ning said:

"Hmm... can you let me see it first?"

Li Jiang immediately said, "Alright, I'm going to catch a ghost anyway, you can come with us."

"Disciple, lead the way. We're going to Xuanming Imperial City!"

Xuanming Imperial City.

Hundreds of top-tier Sect Master from ancient factions have gathered here.

Six hundred boys and girls have been gathered.

Daoist Huang Lei, set up a ritual altar.

Six hundred boys and girls were placed on either side.

Their bodies were sealed by the spiritual power of various Great Sects, making them unable to speak or move.

They will all become victims!

"The Six Ding Six Jia Formation, descend!"

With a low shout, 1,200 array plates inscribed with runes instantly appeared around him!

"Come!"

With a flick of his whisk, six hundred boys and girls landed on the twelve hundred array plates.

"Next, I will bleed them to attract the evil spirits using a ghost-luring formation, and then destroy them!"

Daoist Huang Lei spoke, holding a peach wood Law Seals!

The Law Seals descended, and the grand formation was activated.

Above the altar, a row of white soul banners, suspended two miles in the air, emitted bursts of light.

Everyone was watching.

"No!"

At that moment, a desperate cry rang out!

Everyone turned around.

Then an old man dressed in tattered clothes came walking by, holding a broken bamboo stick as a sign!

In addition, there was a young man, a woman, and a girl following him!

Who is this person?

"He looks like a beggar, how did he get in?"

Everyone was puzzled.

Xuanming Emperor, Zhao Chenming, stepped forward and coldly said:

"Who dares to disturb Master Huang's ritual? Guards, kill him on the spot!"

However, Daoist Huang Lei sneered and said:

"No need."

"This is my junior brother!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Daoist Huang Lei looked like a Daoist immortal, clearly possessing extraordinary cultivation, but his junior brother... looked like a wandering sorcerer, almost like a beggar.

The contrast is striking.

"You've all been fooled by him!"

Upon entering the area, Li Jiang, with a serious expression, said, "He didn't set up the Six Ding Six Jia Formation, but the Six Ghost Six Yin Formation!"

"He intends to turn all six hundred boys and girls into little demons and then use them to support his Ghost Suppressing Banner!"

He looked at the many sect Sect Master present.

However, those people remained completely unmoved!

It seems like they don't care at all!

"Are you done talking? Can you get out of here now?"

Daoist Huang Lei sneered and said:

"Junior brother, you're still so ignorant!"

Do you think they care about the lives of these young boys and girls?

"All they want is for me to destroy that wreaking havoc in the Southwest Region. They don't care about the price I pay!"

"Now, you either help me refine the Ghost Suppressing Banner and slay that Yin Ghost, or you too will become a Yin Soul under my Ghost Suppressing Banner!"

He stared at Li Jiang, his face grim.

Li Jiang's expression changed, and he said:

"Huang Lei, we come from the same sect. Before our master died, he instructed us to work together to return to the Immortal Realm... Have you forgotten our master's dying wish?"

"Last will?"

Huang Lei's face showed hatred, and he said:

"If you hadn't been so infatuated with the sect's Saintess, how could you have offended the sect? If your master hadn't stood up for you, how could he have been so seriously injured by the sect elders? And how could we be in this situation today?"

"You dare talk to me about returning to the Immortal Realm!"

He was furious.

Upon hearing this, a look of pain immediately appeared on Li Jiang's face!

--They originally came from the Celestial Master Dao and the Three Dou Mi Dao in the Immortal Realm!

However, the once impetuous young Li Jiang fell in love with the sect's Saintess.

However, Li Jiang's status was low, and his ending was cruel. Li Jiang was severely punished by the sect, and his master, Jiang Lingzi, was even seriously injured by the sect elders in order to protect his disciple!

Their lineage... was directly banished from the Immortal Realm!

As Li Jiang's Senior Brother, Huang Lei was not spared either.

"Senior Brother, it's all my fault, but you can't keep making the same mistakes... If you continue like this, you'll fall into the demonic path!"

Li Jiang spoke with a heavy heart:

"I will never help you forge the Ghost Suppressing Banner... Release these young boys and girls, and perhaps the two of us, working together, can still fight that evil spirit..."

Daoist Huang Lei sneered and said:

"Since you won't listen to my advice, then don't blame me."

With a wave of his hand, the Ghost Suppressing Banner moved instantly.

Endless Yin Qi surged towards Li Jiang and the others!

"Not good!"

Li Jiang's expression changed. He stepped forward and threw out two talismans from his hand, which then burst into flames.

The flames blocked most of the ghostly energy.

But the faint traces still crept in.

"Ah--"

Li Jiang let out a miserable scream, clutching his head tightly as if his soul were being ripped away!

"Heh, so your old wound hasn't healed yet!"

"And you still dare to come looking for me? You're asking for death—"

With a wave of his hand, the Yin Qi intensified and swept away!

"Master!"

Lin Jiuzheng's eyes turned red, and he immediately took out a dagger, ready to cut open his own blood vessels!

With masculine blood, we fight against the evil spirits!

But at that moment, Xin Ning suddenly stepped forward.

In an instant, all the ghostly energy suddenly stopped!

Do not advance an inch!

Daoist Huang Lei was greatly surprised, staring at Xin Ning in disbelief, and exclaimed:

"Ignorant Body?!"

His voice trembled as he stared intently at Xin Ning.

"How could there be Ignorant Body in the lower realm... This... This is a gift bestowed upon me by Heaven!"

At this moment, Daoist Huang Lei's eyes gleamed with incomparably greedy light!

He stepped forward and said:

"Come over!"

"Become the core of my Six Yin Six Ghost Formation!"

"I will offer you demons created from six hundred boys and girls!"

Beside Xin Ning, Gongya stepped forward indifferently, ready to make a move.

But Xin Ning suddenly blocked his way, and smiled at him:

"Okay~~"

With a wave of his hand, Daoist Huang Lei sent a talisman-inscribed array plate to Xin Ning's feet.

"Get on top! Get on top!"

He was so excited that his voice almost trembled.

Xin Ning obediently stood on it.

"Haha, hahaha!"

Daoist Huang Lei was overjoyed.

He instantly waved the hand Law Seals!

Instantly, all 1,201 array plates began to glow!

Suddenly, a line of blood fell from the hands of all six hundred boys and girls, pooling together to form a small pool of blood!

The blood-red talisman awakened instantly!

An endless chilling aura enveloped the entire city!

"The essence of blood... No demon can resist such temptation!"

Daoist Huang Lei sneered and said:

"Six hundred boys and girls transformed into imps, Ignorant Body transformed into vengeful spirits, plus this ghost from the Southwest Region... it's not impossible for me, Huang Lei, to instantly become an immortal mage!"

And at this moment.

In a certain place in the Southwest Region.

The blood river surged forth, flowing from the earth below and converging in the sky.

In the sky, Yin Renjie's eyes were filled with Yin Qi energy. If it weren't for the surrounding Yin Qi and Evil Qi, he would have looked like an emperor.

"Um?"

After consuming all the creatures of the state, he suddenly turned his head and looked in a certain direction.

"Essence of Blood?"

His figure vanished from the spot.

The Xuanming Imperial Dynasty, above.

A Yin Qi aura emanated from the room.

The next moment, suddenly, a terrifying, chilling, and bloody aura descended from the sky!

Absolutely terrifying!

In an instant, the entire Imperial Capital and countless buildings were destroyed by this aura!

The palace completely collapsed!

"No!"

"What kind of aura is this?!"

"No... how can there be a trace of immortal power within the aura of this Yin ghost?!"

Inside the palace, the Sect Master of hundreds of Great Sects were utterly horrified!

They knew this Yin Ghost, which had wiped out thousands of states in the Southwest Region, was powerful, but they never expected it to be... this terrifyingly powerful!

Even Gongya's expression changed drastically at this moment!

"A Yin Ghost that gave birth to a wisp of immortal energy..."

She was shocked.

Ghosts of this caliber are considered quite formidable in the Devil Realm!

Unless it is an immortal-level Devil Lord, it is practically invincible!

"Devil Lord..."

She looked at Daoist Huang Lei's Formation ahead, filled with worry!

At this moment, Daoist Huang Lei felt the ghostly aura that enveloped the heavens and the earth, and his face turned pale!

Sky!

How... is he that strong?!

At that moment, he suddenly felt uncertain!

The magic array I prepared... is probably no match for it at all!

"Junior brother, lend me a hand, or the entire prefecture will perish!"

He turned around and shouted!

Behind them, Li Jiang, who had just recovered from the excruciating pain of his soul being torn apart, was pale-faced, but upon seeing this, he immediately straightened up!

"Huang Lei... you have committed a terrible sin!"

He cursed angrily, but had no choice but to step forward and jointly hold the Law Seals with Daoist Huang Lei!

Because he understood that if he didn't help Huang Lei now, the whole prefecture would really be doomed!

The two activated the Celestial Master Seal, and a golden light shot out, repelling all the ghostly energy and hurtling towards the sky!

And above the heavens.

Yin Renjie, exuding an aura of sinister evil, appeared coldly.

He looked down at the Imperial Capital.

"You ant, how dare you provoke me?"

He pointed it out!

The golden light below was instantly swallowed up by the ghostly energy!

The Celestial Master's Seal in the hands of Daoist Huang Lei and Li Jiang suddenly shattered!

"Ah--"

Daoist Huang Lei and Li Jiang were both blasted hundreds of meters away, crashing to the ground and spitting out blood!

Having been invaded by ghostly energy and with his soul incomplete, Li Jiang was convulsing in agony, foaming at the mouth!

"No!"

"It's over!"

"How so?!"

On the other side, Zhao Chenming and countless Sect Masters from Great Sects were dumbfounded and utterly desperate!

In the sky, Yin Renjie landed in one step, and with a wave of his hand, he directly grabbed the Six Yin Six Ghost Formation one by one!

"Essence of Blood? I'll thank you, you ant."

He opened his mouth, intending to swallow the entire Six Yin Six Ghost Formation in one gulp!

But, right now!

Within that Formation!

A piece of yellow paper.

It appeared suddenly.

A small, fair hand, holding a yellow talisman, slapped it directly onto Yin Renjie's forehead!

"Hehe, I caught you!"

A little girl's happy voice immediately rang out!

At this moment,

The cinnabar on the yellow talisman shone brightly!

Yin Renjie's ghostly form suddenly froze!

His hand froze, and his ghostly eyes showed a look of terror, but at this moment he was completely unable to move!

The Six Ghost Six Yin Formation instantly enveloped him!

The terrifying ghostly aura that filled the sky vanished instantly!

The Sha Qi has dissipated!

The entire Diming Prefecture was shaken!
