Corpse in the Mud

Chapter 37: Corpse Hidden in Mud

Yu Yinghua's mood was beyond description, and anger couldn't capture it.

For evil spirits like them, normal disgusting things were naturally detestable, but some other items held the same status as human filth.

Black donkey hooves were like dried dung; Black dog blood was equivalent to a laxative; Boy's urine was akin to vomit.

Except for toilet wraiths and the Five Filth Gods, those "unclean" slobs, other evil spirits avoided such things like the plague.

As long as humans carried filth, unless the evil spirit was skilled and bold, they generally wouldn't attack, thus preserving their lives.

This left all four with troubled expressions.

Then, how terrifying would the vitality and destructive power of the stronger, full-force Breaking Door Wraith be compared to her?

Wu Xian suddenly felt a lack of confidence.

Shi Ji, clutching his battle-damaged precious saber with heartache, looked pleadingly at Wu Xian.

"It's time to end this."

He drew a circle at the crossroads, placed yellow paper inside, and lit it, muttering as he burned it.

"I'll burn money for you every year from now on. Don't be stingy over there. Once I leave this blessed land, I'll immediately burn ten handsome men for you!"

All the yellow paper turned to black ash.

Even if his plan was executed perfectly, could it really kill the Breaking Door Wraith?

Su Huijin seemed to see his wavering.

Compared to Yu Yinghua's ferocity, her post-death drop was stingy, yielding only four suixiang. Three were common grade, and one had a silver stem, making it a rare treasure.

"What are you waiting for? Quickly divide the spoils of war, then rest up. We'll execute the plan tonight. I don't want to stay in this blessed land any longer."

But if the filth was actually used and the evil spirit still didn't die, the evil spirit would fight to the death with the person who threw the filth.

Shi Ji immediately replied, "It's okay if the power is weaker, as long as the remote control distance is far enough!"

Smack!

Su Huijin threw a string of beads, hitting Yu Yinghua on the forehead, and softly chanted three times:

Wu Xian seized the opportunity, curling his fingers at her.

Wen Chao thought for two seconds and said, "I can help you, but as compensation, I need some potent filthy items."

After she left.

After the others left, Wu Xian lingered near the underground warehouse for a while longer.

A golden "Fixing Word" appeared, and Yu Yinghua's body froze mid-air, unable to move. No matter how she struggled, her body wouldn't budge, only her resentful eyes darted slightly.

Wu Xian smashed the cement shell outside, revealing He Qiong's corpse within.

"Zhiwu... Zhi..."

He had a good impression of this young man. Although a bit foolish, he was at least loyal. It was a pity he died at the hands of those two vicious women.

"Could you please make me a remote-controlled bomb?"

"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

"If you have a chance to reincarnate, you can come to my home and be my daughter. Then we can be together again. I will definitely treat you well."

"Sister, I've come to give you money."

Seeing that there was still a little time before nightfall, Wu Xian began his final preparations.

Shi Ji sneakily found Wen Chao.

As he was returning to the inn, Wu Xian caught sight of a toothpaste advertisement and walked into the shop.

Such a haul couldn't possibly compensate for the losses incurred in killing her.

The four discussed briefly. In the end, Wu Xian took the rare silver suixiang, while the other three each took a common grade one. They then parted ways, agreeing to meet that night at the Ping'an Hostel.

The fireball instantly struck her, erupting in a burst of blinding flames. Her evil spirit body immediately ignited, burning fiercely. The dazzling light even overshadowed the beam of the searchlight.

First, he went to a men's clothing store to change into clean and presentable clothes. Then, he collected some valuables like banknotes and gold jewelry. Finally, he stuffed all the weapons and props he had brought, which had turned into origami, into a suitcase.

His face was contorted in terror, his body lacking much intact skin. His open wounds were filled with cement, which had already fused with his flesh and blood.

Yu Yinghua stared blankly at Shi Ji for two seconds, then instantly lost control, roaring as she charged forward. She wanted nothing more than to turn Shi Ji into Dead Ji.

This was enough to illustrate Yu Yinghua's terrifying strength.

Immobilization Technique.

The talisman imprinted within the beads was... the immobilization technique!

If I had to describe it.

He had already tried and failed to bring useful external items into the blessed land.

Snap!

Wu Xian flicked his fingers.

He searched carefully and indeed found no god statues, but he did find something else.

Wisps of fiery energy gathered at Wu Xian's fingertips, gradually forming a scorching fireball. The previous true fire incantation, only as thick as a finger, was enough to instantly kill an ordinary wandering wraith. This enhanced 'fine true fire incantation' was as large as a fist.

Yu Yinghua's final burst of power caused the cement in the underground warehouse to churn, and He Qiong's corpse floated up, revealing a human-shaped silhouette on the ground.

Wu Xian couldn't help but shake his head.

Yu Yinghua's body exploded like a balloon, and evil energy surged out, escaping from the underground warehouse. The remaining flesh and blood fell like streaks of meteor fire, shimmering with a dreamlike red glow.

Su Huijin found a pile of yellow paper.

Shi Ji's actions were like squatting on her face and defecating!

In reality, Yu Yinghua, having been hit by both the breaking law and immobilization techniques, was already at the end of her rope. Wu Xian didn't need to use the true fire incantation to kill her, but he wanted to test the power of the fine true fire incantation, so he wouldn't miscalculate when he truly needed to use it.

After all, evil spirits also had pride and didn't want to be associated with such things.

Wen Chao was also eager to try. He had also prepared a lot for this day, and it was time to put an end to it all.

This was where she had killed her sister, and she wanted to escape quickly to forget last night's sins.

Wu Xian and the other three began to divide the spoils of war.

Wu Xian wiped the sweat from his brow.

He Qiong's death was even more tragic than Lu Yuzhu's.

In a few days, he would probably become a part of this cement.

Su Huijin left with satisfaction, as if doing so would make her heart feel a little better.

Wen Chao asked doubtfully, "I did prepare some explosives, but explosives aren't very effective against evil spirits. What kind of power are you looking for?"

A strange wind blew, and the black ash within the circle gradually spread outwards.

But in the blessed land, she was just an elite monster.

Like a woman's hair...

To deal with this female evil spirit, his copper coin spear had used more than twenty blades and one true fire incantation. Shi Ji's boy's urine an gang was no longer as sharp as it was at the beginning, its poison had faded considerably, and he had used a bag of black dog blood. Su Huijin had also used two powerful talismans.

Looking at the three of them, Wu Xian smiled. Without any further hesitation, this plan was no longer just his own. At this point, he could only choose to go all out.

Then, could the items in the blessed land be brought out?

After Yu Yinghua died, the basement became much brighter than before, no longer having that dark and eerie feeling.

At least the Suixiang god statue could be mixed in, right? Without it, the Suixiang would be useless?

He discovered He Qiong.

From "Journey to the West," Chapter 5, "The Great Sage Stole the Pills in the Chaotic Peach Banquet and Rebelled Against the Heavenly Palace, the Gods Captured the Monsters" -

"Good Great Sage, twisting his fingers, he chanted a spell and said to the fairies, 'Stop! Stop! Stop!' This was originally an immobilization spell, which made the seven fairies stand there, their eyes wide open, their eyeballs white, all standing under the peach tree. The Great Sage then rode a auspicious cloud, jumped out of the garden, and headed straight for the path to the Jade Pool."
