Black Tiger Yao
The blueprints for buildings in the Spirit Realm are quite unique. They don't create a building immediately after use. Instead, a specific architect needs to use the blueprint, master the construction methods, and collect materials to build the building bit by bit.
The final building, depending on the architect's skill level, will present a variety of results; in short, everything should be close to reality.
"Perhaps I could work part-time as an architect?"
Lin Xu put away the blueprint. Starting a business is the hardest job; you have to do everything yourself and can only exploit yourself.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the group set off again, circling around the mountainside towards the demon cave on the front.
With such a commotion, and several patrol teams disappearing without a trace, the monsters immediately became alert.
Almost all the demon soldiers who went out on patrol were wiped out, and the rest lined up on the flat ground in front of the cave, watching the surrounding movements with predatory eyes.
As the Wedding Procession Ghosts approached the demon cave, they were immediately spotted by the demons. The two sides faced each other from a distance, and a battle was about to break out.
Lin Xu stared at the demon horde of over a hundred lesser demons, then his gaze shifted and landed on the black tiger demon, who was about ten feet tall, at the head of the horde.
The black tiger demon had a body as strong as a tower, its eyes gleaming with ferocity. It wore a set of jet-black iron armor, with a large sword with blood-red patterns hanging at its waist. Its body was surrounded by a palpable aura of Sha Qi, clearly indicating its extraordinary strength.
"A purple-clad elite, and having awakened the White Tiger bloodline, possessing the ability to transform and control ghosts into ghostly soldiers, almost equivalent to half a Hero Template, coupled with outstanding individual combat power..."
Lin Xu's eyes narrowed, and he realized with a thought, "No wonder."
Monsters don't follow human order; might makes right.
This black tiger demon possesses a trace of white tiger blood, and its talent and strength far surpass those of the wolf demon. No wonder it was able to seize the position of leader of the demon stronghold.
Thinking of this, he glanced behind the group of monsters and saw a group of ghostly soldiers shrouded in aura.
The group of tattered ghost soldiers numbered about twenty or thirty, and seemed to be similar in number to the ghost soldiers he had previously captured in the Yin Locust Forest.
He had previously thought these were ghosts that the demon stronghold had subdued as cannon fodder, but now it seemed that they were clearly ghost soldiers bound by the Black Tiger Demon's bloodline.
"Where did this wild Daoist come from, daring to invade my demon stronghold?" the Black Tiger Demon roared, its thunderous sound waves already silently approaching.
This guy looks big and burly, but he's cunning and ruthless when he gets going!
With a thought, Lin Xu's body radiated a crystal-clear light, transforming into a shield that blocked his path.
As the whistling sound waves crashed in, they rippled across the shield before instantly dissipating into the air.
"How dare you, you beast, be so disrespectful!"
Seeing her master attacked, Yan Jingshu's jade-like face turned fierce, and the candle flame in her spirit lamp suddenly ignited, its blood-red light silently enveloping the tiger demon.
The Black Tiger Monster was still scrutinizing the Daoist priest in the sky when he felt a chill run through his body, his body felt unsteady, and he swayed and almost fell over.
In the next instant, countless strands of black hair attacked, like venomous snakes dancing wildly. In the blink of an eye, a red light flashed, hidden in the black hair, secretly stabbing at the tiger demon.
Blood Hairpin Nether Hair and Ghost Bride's first move is a deadly strike!
"Aww~"
A thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the ground, shaking the entire nameless mountain range!
Compared to the wolf demon's "delicate" howl, the black tiger demon's Tiger's Roar was much more shocking, like thunder from the sky, with violent sound waves spreading and sweeping across the entire battlefield in an instant.
A Sha Qi spread out, and Lin Xu felt a chill in his heart. "This is the Tiger Sha!"
The so-called Sha Qi is a concept of negative power. Tiger Sha a special kind of Sha Qi that tiger-like spirit beasts and monsters condense during slaughter, and it has a special attack effect on spirits and souls.
"Smack~"
Suddenly, all the black hair burst open, shattering and instantly turning into crimson smoke and dissipating.
The blood-red hairpin, which had been hidden in the hair, was suddenly exposed. The tiger demon's eyes, as big as copper bells, glared, and it slashed down fiercely with its nine-ringed broadsword.
The next instant, the blood-red hairpin vanished silently, dodging the descending blade.
Yan Jingshu looked at the tiger demon warily. She was the first to be affected by the tiger's Tiger's Roar. Her solidified soul rippled outwards, and cracks appeared on her bright red wedding robe.
In their first encounter, she suffered a slight setback.
This Sha Qi of Tiger's Roar exploded like thunder among the ghosts.
The dozen or so red-clad paper figures closest to the bridal sedan chair exploded on the spot, their souls directly exposed to the sound waves, torn apart into red smoke and dissipated.
The paper figures that were further away fared slightly better, but they still swayed from side to side, like candles flickering in a storm. On the paper figures that Lin Xu had personally crafted, fine cracks, as thin as hair, quietly began to appear.
"Kids, charge with me!"
The tiger demon roared and transformed into a gust of wind that swept towards the Ghost Bride.
Lin Xu frowned, about to cast a spell, when he saw the black wind swirl, turn a corner, and rush towards him!
This was a feint attack!
At that moment, the Evil Eye of the four guardians nearby stared at Black Whirlwind.
The next instant, two tangible soul shockwaves suddenly struck, slamming into the whirlwind.
The tiger demon in the wind escape technique suddenly froze, as if gripped by an invisible giant hand. After a moment of pause, two more sharp Mind Blast struck.
But this time the tiger demon was prepared. Its demonic power flowed like a river, easily blocking the Mind Blast.
His momentum didn't diminish as he charged straight towards Lin Xu!
"Hmph!" Lin Xu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and in the instant the tiger demon was blocked, his consciousness connected with the 29 guardians on the ground.
The next instant, the guardians, their expressions blank, all looked up at the sky, and suddenly swung the command flags they held towards the attacking tiger demon!
A deafening whooshing sound suddenly rang out.
Twenty-nine howling gusts of wind suddenly appeared, instantly coalescing into a surging torrent that violently swept towards the attacking tiger demon.

This is a wind-type magical artifact developed by Lin Xu and used by the guardians. It can control strong winds for both attack and defense.
After Lin Xu passed on the corresponding wind-based spells to them, the guardians' ability to control spells greatly improved, and they learned how to perform combined spell attacks after just a few practices.
Just then, 29 fierce winds roared together and merged into one, lifting up a Shitou that was caught in the gust. The Shitou, the size of a human head, was worn down by the wind and torn into fragments and powder in the blink of an eye, which were then scattered towards the Black Tiger.
The rocks shot out like arrows, accompanied by a barrage of sharp wind blades. The black tiger demon's protective demonic power trembled violently, on the verge of being torn apart. It had no choice but to stop and fight back against the howling wind.
At this moment, the demon soldiers and ghost soldiers on the ground had already taken the opportunity to rush up.
Before the Red-Robed Ghosts could recover from the soul-shaking tiger's Tiger's Roar, the demon soldiers suddenly stormed into their formation.
The blade, imbued with Yao Qi, tore through the paper figure's body, spewing out wisps of green smoke—the blood of a ghost.
