Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.
From a young age, I ...
Resurrected from the dead?
I swallowed hard; it really did seem possible.
But I suddenly had some doubts in my mind: how did Bai Yin know these things?
She had been following Bai Yang, but Bai Yang had been going to school all the time. How could he possibly have come into contact with such things?
I can't figure it out, something must be wrong!
Just then, Bai Yin turned around and stared straight at us.
At this moment, my three-edged bone needle was still stuck between her eyebrows, deeply embedded. If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely be dead after suffering such a serious injury!
"Don't interfere in this matter. I can remove the demonic energy from your body and return the three-edged bone needle to you."
She suddenly spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, I froze, a chill running down my spine, and an unbelievable thought began to form in my mind:
Are you Yin or Yang?
When I asked that question, both Luo Tianhe and Li Huai thought I was crazy.
How could she possibly be Bai Yang!
Luo Tianhe hesitated for a moment, then tugged at my sleeve:
"Chen Yan, you, you've been influenced. Don't say anything more. The Taoist priest will help us."
I shook my head. I knew I was perfectly sober and unaffected.
"Luo Tianhe, believe me, didn't you notice that even Grandmaster didn't refute me? He must have seen through the situation too!"
You must know that Bai Yin is a ghost, born with boundless resentment and malice!
It also carries the extremely ominous fates of two people, which amplifies that resentment many times over!
What's more, I tricked her last time, and the three-edged bone needle is still stuck in her forehead.
This time when we met, she wanted to torture me to death, tearing me to pieces inch by inch. How could she possibly negotiate with me?
Moreover, she speaks very logically and her purpose is very clear.
Bai Yin forced a smile, his lips twitching, a smile filled with bitterness and helplessness.
“That’s right, I am Bai Yang. I know everything. I have lived for seventeen years and have experienced the beauty of this world. I owe my sister, and I will repay her today.”
I couldn't help but be moved. She was right; she did owe Bai Yin, but not everyone has the courage to repay that debt.
Luo Tianhe and Li Huai were also stunned by Bai Yang's admission of his identity.
Master Zhang Qingxiao sighed.
“Since you’re willing, I won’t interfere. First, remove the ghost marks from Chen Yan’s body, then return the three-edged bone needle to him, and we’ll leave.”
Immediately, Bai Yang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. The reason she explained to us was that the pressure that Master Zhang Qingxiao had brought to Bai Yin was too great!
Both sisters were afraid of Zhang Qingxiao, a Taoist priest with profound Taoist skills.
"Okay, I'll remove it for him now."
Bai Yang floated in front of me, stretched out her pale, livid hand, and gently brushed it across my cheek. Instantly, I felt her icy cold hand.
It felt like it came from hell, with a strong smell of blood and decay.
"Chen Yan, the bruises on your face are gone!"
Li Huai exclaimed in surprise.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief; the crisis of death had been averted just like that.
Luo Tianhe was clearly relieved, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.
I reached out my hand, no longer afraid of Bai Yang in front of me. She was indeed a good person. I slowly pulled out the three-edged bone needle. Bai Yang's body trembled continuously, and her face showed pain.
I quickly pulled out the three-edged bone needle, put it in my pocket, and turned to leave, only to find that Master Zhang Qingxiao was standing there motionless.
"Don't rush off. Don't you want to witness the scene of the dead coming back to life with your own eyes?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yang abruptly turned to look at Daoist Zhang Qingxiao. Her voice echoed, as if two people were speaking at the same time.
"Taoist Master! You just promised to remove the ghost-pinching green and take the three-edged bone nail, then immediately leave with them!"
Master Zhang Qingxiao remained expressionless in the face of Bai Yang and Bai Yin's questioning.
"Did I say 'immediately'? To come back from the dead is defying the heavens. I've already gone against my conscience by not stopping it. Don't push your luck!"
I exchanged a glance with Luo Tianhe and Li Huai.
Why did the gentle Taoist priest suddenly become unreasonable and aggressive?
Although we felt that the Taoist priest was in the wrong, how could we possibly embarrass him in front of outsiders?
After all, we were able to get here thanks to the Taoist priest.
Moreover, the Taoist priest must have had his reasons for doing so.
Bai Yang fell silent. She lowered her head, and the resentment belonging to Bai Yin seemed to surge around her. Finally, she made up her mind and slowly floated towards the array in the center of the classroom.
She began to move.
Her pale, slender hands moved in an eerie way, her joints making a cracking sound.
Luo Tianhe was shocked and moved closer to me:
"His arm looks like it's been twisted into a pretzel! Even my Barbie doll wouldn't dare play like that!"
I gave him a disdainful look:
"You're a grown man, and you've played with Barbie dolls?"
Luo Tianhe was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "I don't play with Barbie dolls! I was just using an analogy, giving an example, do you understand?!"
Master Zhang Qingxiao, who was standing to the side, glared at us and made a shushing gesture.
We chuckled sheepishly and then watched obediently.
Bai Yang's lips moved as if he were chanting something. In an instant, I heard countless shrill screams, and my head throbbed so badly that I almost fell to the ground.
Apart from the Taoist priest, the three of us were just pathetic, groaning and rolling around on the ground, feeling like our heads were about to explode.
The Taoist priest took out a yellow talisman, tore it into six pieces, and flicked it with his finger. The six talismans turned into streams of light and entered our ears. Instantly, I felt the screams and wails around my ears subside. Although they still made my scalp tingle, at least I wasn't so badly shaken that I couldn't even stand up straight.
"Master, what is this?"
"These are the wails of ghosts on the path of reincarnation."
Master Li Qingxiao gave a simple explanation.
Bai Yang's side has clearly moved on to the next stage.
The rotten fruit in front of her turned into white smoke and disappeared into the formation.
Suddenly, a strange, nauseating smell filled the air, a mixture of incense ash, blood, and rotting flesh.
Next, she grabbed the Yin Earth Soil, which even Master Zhang Qingxiao feared, and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing it with a ferocious expression.
Red blood seeped from between her lips and teeth, flowing down her pale face and pooling at her feet.
I rubbed my eyes in disbelief at what I saw. The earth in the underworld was only the size of a fist, but the blood flowing out was more than a cupful.
Is this the soil of the underworld? It really can't be judged by ordinary standards!
As the blood stained the array beneath her feet, Bai Yang's body gradually became transparent.
A female phantom, bearing a striking resemblance to her but radiating resentment, appeared behind her, growing clearer and more solid!
