Thud!!!

Chu Tianshu leaped to the left front, adjusting his posture in mid-air, bending his waist and knees, and placing his feet on the lamppost to the left front.

The lamppost showed a noticeable bend.

He had previously broken a pillar, so he had a general understanding of the materials used in these pillars.

This leverage was perfectly timed, taking advantage of the fact that the lamppost, though continuous, could still exert tremendous elasticity.

With a hum, the lamp post snapped upright.

Chu Tianshu exerted his strength at the same time, and his figure shot out, directly leaping onto the five-story building to his right.

His figure sped past the buildings, using rooftops, terraces, and air conditioner units for support.

Within seconds, he had approached the building where Third Brother Mo was.

Third Brother Mo is in the southwest corner of the rooftop.

Chu Tianshu came from the south, and as he got closer, Third Brother Mo's own view was obstructed by the building, and he could no longer see him.

It was at this moment that Third Brother Mo suddenly realized what was happening.

That man probably really heard him call out "Big Brother," and he chased after him with a clear objective.

He, who practices Gu Arts, couldn't possibly outrun the guy who killed his older brother.

"I'll fight you to the death!!!"

Before the three incense sticks in Third Brother Mo's hand had completely burned out, he suddenly stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them up, and then pulled out many thumb-sized red and white candles from his pockets.

He took big bites, and in no time, Third Brother Mo's mouth was full. He swallowed desperately, and his mouth was covered in wax.

"An inch of flesh is fragrant, three inches of bone marrow is shiny, five inches of fat is glistening, seven inches pierces the heart and kills through all seven orifices..."

Third Brother Mo mumbled the incantation rapidly, his expression suddenly changing to one of extreme pain. He tore open his shirt with both hands, poked a finger into his navel, and pulled it outwards.

Sizzle!!

His navel looked like a blowtorch, spitting out a bright red tongue of fire.

The flame shot out more than twenty centimeters before curving upwards and flickering.

A figure suddenly leaped up from the edge of the rooftop.

As soon as Chu Tianshu's foot touched the edge of the rooftop, he slid more than three meters to the side, then suddenly moved forward and stood directly in the center of the rooftop.

His agile movements were designed to prevent anyone from launching a surprise attack as soon as he went upstairs.

However, Third Brother Mo had already fallen to the ground and made no other move.

Only the flame in the belly button was changing color.

It flickered between red and blue.

From his body came the sounds of struggling insects and a tremendous, acrid smell.

It was as if many tiny insects were hiding inside him, and now they were all entangled in the wax and burned to death.

Chu Tianshu's expression changed as he sensed a warm breath enveloping him on the rooftop, which was filled with the stench of burning.

The night air was distorted and swaying, as if countless tiny, transparent phantoms were converging to form a huge, amorphous monster.

Those were the Gu worms that had been burned to death, temporarily appearing as vengeful spirits, swarming and attacking in droves.

These vengeful spirits of Gu worms cannot survive for long; they usually disintegrate on their own after a short while.

However, in that brief moment, their ferocity far exceeded that of ordinary vengeful spirits.

By using the Gu master's human oil mixed with candle oil and burning them to death, these Gu worms and vengeful spirits are imbued with both yin and yang energy.

Many methods specifically designed to ward off evil spirits and exorcise insects are ineffective against such vengeful spirits.

The normal boxer's method of forcibly suppressing and attacking the vengeful spirit with his own yang energy is even less effective against the insect spirit at this moment, and it is even more likely to be burrowed into the body.

"Lin Bing Dou Zhe!"

Chu Tianshu spoke the truth, but he did not switch to his spiritual state to slowly engage in a magical battle with his opponent.

He simply used these four mantra syllables to regulate his mind and body, and then threw a punch directly.

Bang!!

It looked like a giant watermelon bursting open in mid-air, or like a wine jar full of insects being blasted apart.

The swirling, menacing worms and vengeful spirits were instantly struck by this punch, losing a piece of their bodies.

Chu Tianshu stepped forward, his gaze shifting left and right, his hands moving erratically left and right as he threw punches.

The translucent swarm of insects, whenever it gathers into aggressive spikes, is punched, creating more and more gaping holes.

Even without entering a psychic state, with his current "Vajra Samadhi" fist technique, he seems to be able to detect vengeful spirits with his eyes.

Moreover, when he punches the vengeful spirits, he no longer feels weak and powerless, as if most of his punching force is wasted.

Every bit of force was truly applied to these insects.

It shattered and annihilated even the smallest vengeful spirits.

This feeling is so wonderful!

It should be noted that Mind Power originates from the mind and brain, and although it is exceptionally sensitive and versatile, it has many advantages.

However, if you use your Mind Power to directly attack Evil Spirit, the burden of feedback will also come back and weigh on your mind.

If a spell is cast through multiple intermediaries, even if the spell fails, the burden of the feedback will be reduced through each layer of transition.

However, casting spells is always cumbersome during intense battles.

Even though Chu Tianshu possessed a treasure like the Sanqi Divine Sword, which allowed him to kill enemies using concentrated Mind Power, he still experienced subtle discomfort, as if he were grasping fire with his bare hands and slashing with it.

Unlike now, he can deliver full power with just a punch.

Every strike was solid and aimed directly at the core, without any waste.

In just a few steps, Chu Tianshu moved swiftly and decisively, already standing in front of Third Brother Mo.

He annihilated all the venomous insects and vengeful spirits along the way.

Even the acrid smell caused by that evil magic had faded considerably.

The rooftop was clean and refreshing, with a gentle night breeze.

Third Brother Mo's face was filled with shock and resentment. "How could this be? My ultimate move... just using the boxer's fighting style, can it so easily crush vengeful spirits?"

Without saying a word, Chu Tianshu kicked him in the chest.

Third Brother Mo slid backward and crashed into the low wall at the edge of the rooftop, rupturing his heart and lungs, and died instantly.

Having used the Human Oil Forbidden Technique, Third Brother Mo was defeated by the enemy and was doomed.

But Chu Tianshu was unwilling to wait any longer and give him even the slightest chance.

As his head drooped, the cracked skin on the back of his neck was exposed, and a White Bone Centipede struggled to crawl out half of its body before rolling to the ground.

Chu Tianshu's kick also shattered the centipede.

At that time, even with all his might and mental focus, Chu Tianshu could not detect the existence of the White Bone Centipede among Wang Bo's group.

But now, as Chu Tianshu kicked out, he instantly felt the insect crawling on his cervical spine.

Just like when I killed Eldest Brother Mo, I also wore down that bug in the process.

Chu Tianshu breathed a sigh of relief. From this vantage point, he glanced around and spotted another battlefield in the western part of the street. He immediately leaped down.

When he fell more than ten meters, he reached out and grabbed the wall to cushion the fall. After falling another ten meters, he reached out again.

It fell to the ground at a very high speed.

However, by the time he arrived there, the battle was already coming to an end.

The heavy golden saber spun in mid-air and slashed, severing the longsword in two.

The blade suddenly flipped, striking Mo the Second on the head with only the side of the Great Saber.

Mo the Second suddenly knelt down, his eyes glazed over, and he fainted.

Upon landing, Feng Jianhua immediately planted the golden knife beside him, reached out with his right hand, drew a handful of snow from a distance, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Chu Tianshu then realized that the old principal's left hand was gathering cyan internal energy into a sphere, not for attack, but to trap an Evil Spirit inside.

"You've come at the perfect time."

Feng Jianhua spotted Chu Tianshu and laughed, "Didn't you say before that as long as the Spiritual Qi was stable, you could cast spells to trace the altar?"

Chu Tianshu nodded, then said, "But this one you have won't do."

The Evil Spirit was a fat monk wearing a kasaya, with only his upper body remaining, compressed within blue internal energy.

It appears to be less sluggish than some Evil Spirit, but its malevolent appearance and constant struggle, along with its violent aura, make it a formidable foe.

"It's not possible right now, but I have an idea."

Feng Jianhua pointed at Mo the Second.

"This person associates with Evil Spirit, but the Hemp Robe Splashed Ink Sword Technique he cultivates is quite profound."

"Especially after mastering the Hemp Robe Heart Method, any attack that hits him can be desensitized, and even the senses of outsiders can be dulled, making them unable to detect his presence."

"Passivation is essentially a way of saying that a property becomes stable."

Feng Jianhua grabbed another handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth, seemingly extremely thirsty, yet his expression was very excited.

"If we put this Evil Spirit into Mo the Second's body and guide it, could it dissolve and stabilize under the influence of Mo the Second's internal energy?"

"Internal energy isn't like spirit-summoning magic, which directly targets the Evil Spirit spirit's vitals. As long as someone knowledgeable like you provides a little protection, it should be able to retain a trace of energy, enough for you to Fayong?"

Feng Jianhua thought of this matter after the first round of fighting with Mo the Second.

He came from a time of hardship and has always adhered to the principles of diligence, thrift, and making the most of resources.

The supplies sent by the enemy are also usable, and quite useful at that.

It would be even better if the enemy themselves were used as well.

"Oh?!"

Chu Tianshu's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.

"Yeah, that might actually work."
