In a world of immortals and swordsmen, a young Taoist named Mu Shao'ai loves flying swords, raising poison insects, drawing talismans, and refining pills. Isn't it delightful to live a care...
【The Five Ghosts' Secret Records: Unparalleled Skill】
Once the Soul-Suppressing Talent is activated, the Great Dao's divine pronouncements resound.
At this moment, the Five Ghosts Secret Records naturally advanced to the level of "divine mastery".
Hehe! Hehe!
"Hehehe, hehehe, hehehehe..."
Suddenly, a cold wind howled past.
Bai Cang felt a chill run down his spine and shivered. Then he saw five dark figures jump up from his back.
The originally hazy and illusory ghost body also became half-real and half-illusory at this moment, like jelly.
The five ghosts, who had once been tamed, revealed their true, ferocious nature, staring at Bai Cang with malicious intent amidst their grotesque cries, and even wisps of drool falling from their mouths.
It seemed as if it was pondering where to start eating, and which part of the flesh would be the most tender and delicious.
"You've turned against the Heavenly Generals, haven't you?"
Bai Cang was enraged upon seeing this, but then seemed to realize something, and his expression changed drastically: Oh no! The Five Ghosts Devouring Their Master?!
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, the five little devils pounced on him, and the howling wind made him feel cold all over and his limbs stiff.
"Soul Suppressor!"
With a thought, Bai Cang activated the power of "Controlling a Hundred Ghosts".
A faint yet majestic pressure suddenly emanated from the depths of his soul.
The five ferocious little devils, intimidated by this overwhelming pressure, obediently stopped.
As if he had been cleansed from within and without, his ferocious expression had faded, and he looked at Bai Cang with some confusion.
Then, instinctively, he climbed onto Bai Cang's feet and tried to hug his thigh.
"Good heavens! This kid's practically a spirit!"
Bai Cang was not keenly aware of the Five Ghosts' transformation, as if they had already developed sentience.
"Get down and squat obediently!"
The next second, Bai Cang kicked each of the five little devils to the ground.
They rolled around on the ground once, then obediently squatted down around Bai Cang.
His face was full of innocent expression, which perfectly described him as "well-behaved".
His eyes had a mischievous look, yet also a clear-eyed stupidity.
"What kind of class do you think you are? How dare you turn against me?"
"You're not the Dragon King's sons-in-law, you don't even know how to make a crooked mouth, yet you dare to imitate them and devour your master?"
Seeing this, Bai Cang gave one of the ghosts a flick on the forehead in an annoyed manner, and inexplicably found them somewhat cute.
Especially its bouncy texture, like jelly, made Bai Cang unable to resist giving it another good squeeze, just like a chibi figurine.
"Wait! The feel?"
Bai Cang's mind raced, and a bold idea suddenly came to him: "Go, brew me a pot of tea and bring it up."
At his command, the five little ones looked innocently at Bai Cang, their clear, foolish eyes revealing a hint of confusion.
It's like they're saying: Is Li talking about gods and demons? We're just well-behaved, sensible, and adorable little devils!
But the next second, Bai Cang's thoughts shifted, and his "Soul Suppression" talent resonated with the five little ones, conveying his thoughts to them.
"Ping! Bell! Pong! Clang!"
After a flurry of activity, the five little ones actually managed to brew a pot of hot tea and obediently served it to Bai Cang.
However, the messy room made Bai Cang's face twitch involuntarily.
"Don't get angry! Don't get angry! Getting angry will make you sick and no one will care!"
"Practice makes perfect, after all. They're my own children, aren't they?"
Bai Cang comforted himself expressionlessly, forcing himself not to look at the five little ones' obedient yet foolish expressions.
I'm still a virgin who's never been in a relationship, and I've already become a dad?
Where the hell can I go to seek justice?!
"You'd better be of some use, or don't blame me for turning against your own family for the greater good!"
Bai Cang endured it again and again, but finally could not bear it any longer and looked at the five little ones with an unfriendly expression.
The five little ones: *sobs*
"Five Ghosts Moving, begin!"
Ignoring the five little ones' malicious attempts to be cute, Bai Cang activated the "Five Ghosts Secret Records" with a thought.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The next second, a faint, howling wind began to rise.
The five little ones leaped into the air, creating a swirling cloud of black smoke in mid-air.
Then, as it fell from the sky, it rolled up a table and lifted it into the air.
"There really is a way!"
Bai Cang was overjoyed at the sight, "Five Ghosts Great Capture, begin!"
Before the words were finished, the black cloud of smoke transformed into a semi-transparent hand, which passed straight through the door and grabbed a stone lock on the training ground.
And then, that was it.
Bai Cang could even sense the five little ones making strange "whimpering" sounds in his mind, as if they were using all their strength.
But if it doesn't work, it doesn't work. What's with taking a break?
What use are you to me?
Bai Cang angrily smashed the teacup, and the five little ones immediately scrambled in, squatting on the ground and looking at him with pitiful expressions.
This whiny behavior infuriated Bai Cang even more.
If you were even slightly useful, you wouldn't be so useless.
"Eek!"
Upon hearing this, the little imp in the middle raised its hand high and let out a series of strange squeaking noises.
It seemed as if they were angrily refuting Bai Cang's "slander": Why do you say we're trash? At least we're cute!
Besides, we're not entirely useless; we're not completely useless.
"Yes, yes, you are useful, but there aren't many of you."
Bai Cang rolled his eyes: "At most, I can only lift twenty or thirty pounds of things. How can I achieve my grand plan to get rich?"
Most importantly: when will my "Five Ghosts Great Capture" and my "Five Ghosts Escape Technique" be realized?
"Waaaaah!"
Seeing Bai Cang's disappointed expression, the five little ones felt wronged and jumped up in anger, emmm... a foot high, just reaching Bai Cang's knees.
"What? You want to jump up and hit my knee?"
Bai Cang sneered disdainfully, glancing sideways at the five little ones and uttering a merciless mockery.
"Eek!"
Seeing this, the five little ones turned pale with anger. Suddenly, they turned around and left, disappearing dozens of meters away in an instant, leaving the courtyard where Bai Cang was.
"What? You dare to run away from home again?"
Bai Cang suddenly felt his fist harden: You've all gone too far! You have no skills whatsoever, yet you dare to act like this to your master?
But the next second, Bai Cang's eyes lit up.
Wherever the five little ones went, everything came into view, as if they had five extra eyes.
To be precise: it should be five drones with high-definition cameras.
If the previous Five Ghosts were like a blurry, landline dial-up call, then the Five Little Ones are like a high-definition, high-speed reconnaissance aircraft capable of all terrains and taking off for reconnaissance.
Moreover, the scope of the investigation has expanded many times over.
It's like upgrading from a slingshot to a cannon; they're completely incomparable.
It wasn't until they were about a mile away that the five little ones' contact with Bai Cang became intermittent.
"Is the maximum range just one mile?"
Bai Cang thought to himself, "Come back!"
At a command, the five little ones instantly traversed a mile, leaping out from the void.
Then they started chattering and making a racket around Bai Cang, as if they were asking for praise.
"Yes, yes, you are very useful. You are all my good Palu."
Bai Cang casually offered a few perfunctory words, which made the five little ones overjoyed.
While circling around Bai Cang, it mumbled indistinctly, "Palu! Palu! We...are useful...good...Palu!"
I'm so damn stupid! How could they not even spare such a tiny brat?
Bai Cang's heart softened for half a second. "Oh right! There's also the Five Ghosts Possession technique, which I haven't tested yet for entering and leaving the Netherworld."
Conscience? What is that? Can you eat it?
His motto, "Master Bai," is to exploit everyone fairly and equally.
Hmm... We absolutely can't let ghosts get away!
After all, ghosts don't have "human rights," so they don't need to worry about the issue of "ghosts having precious lives."
