Chapter 158 Kill the dead but not the living, kill the ghosts but not the people
The candles suddenly went out, and the room fell into darkness in an instant.
"Puff" Hu Xinting spat out a mouthful of black blood, her head drooped strangely, her hands fell, and the soul-calling bell and the soul-collecting bottle rolled to the ground.
The man who had been watching the show raised his hand and a few more candles were lit.
He walked over and picked up the soul-calling bell and the soul-collecting bottle, and the smile on his face disappeared completely.
"I originally valued talents and didn't want to take action." He sighed, "Why do you have to come all the way here to die?"
——On
the other side.
Without the interference of the bells, a group of people stood up with swords and joined the battle.
Li Wenhe saw the shadow reveal a flaw and threw out a high-level exorcist talisman, but the effect was minimal.
He frowned, feeling something was wrong. This high-level exorcist talisman was drawn by Mingzhuo. Even if his magic power was not enough to use it, the effect would be discounted, but it would not be so watery.
"It has a lot of vitality, and the exorcist talisman is of course ineffective against living people." Mingzhuo answered his doubts. Although the person in front of him was not a living person,
the vitality on his body was more intense than that of a living person. If it was disguised and walked on the crowded streets, no one would find that it was an evil spirit.
Taoist Xuanmiao understood immediately: "It swallowed a lot of souls, so it has so much vitality!"
Mingzhuo: "I've heard of a secret method. A fierce ghost can be resurrected by swallowing a hundred souls born at the same time as itself. So this is the way to resurrect."
Everyone looked at the black shadow in front of them, and they couldn't believe that it was a "living person" no matter what.
Not only was it full of vitality, but it was also full of yin energy. The black yin energy was endless, and occasionally it was torn, revealing a stiff blue-black skin.
That is the skin color of the dead.
When they thought that this thing swallowed a lot of souls, they shuddered.
Taoist Xuanmiao looked at the others and said with a gloomy face: "We can't keep this thing, otherwise we don't know what kind of disaster it will cause. Seven Killing Formation, form a formation!"
Several Taoists quickly chanted a spell and began to form a formation, trapping the black shadow in the formation.
The black shadow seemed to realize the danger and began to rush at everyone frantically.
It separated the black energy into strands, like tentacles, and soon beat everyone so hard that they couldn't resist, and the formation couldn't be formed at all!
The erosion of Yin Qi is too strong, and those with a slightly lower cultivation level can't bear it at all. They fell to the ground after being hit and couldn't get up for a long time.
He Wangyao had been hiding behind Mingzhuo, "Boss, what should we do now?"
Mingzhuo thought for a moment, bit his fingertips and drew a few strokes on Yang Juntong's forehead, "Hold the defensive talisman and watch him!"
Then he turned around and shouted, "Li Wenhe, come and watch them!"
Taoist Xuanmiao saw her rushing over and was immediately overjoyed, "Great! My friend, you are very skilled in Taoism. Let's form a seven-killing formation together and strangle this thing!"
Mingzhuo: "No need to be so troublesome."
Taoist Xuanmiao didn't quite understand what she meant. How could we destroy this thing without forming a formation?
He had been studying formations and knew that formations could exert the greatest power. For example, if seven people formed a formation, the power exerted was indeed 14 times.
Of course, the higher the magic power of the person who formed the formation, the more powerful it would be.
It all depends on the strength of the team.
Ming Zhuo: "I have the Heavenly Thunder Talisman."
"But the Heavenly Thunder Talisman should not be very useful. After all, this thing has too much vitality. It can protect those Yin Qi..."
Taoist Priest Xuanmiao was about to say that it was a bit of a waste of natural resources, when he saw Ming Zhuo take out two Heavenly Thunder Talismans and throw them out.
Taoist Priest Xuanmiao: "..."
No, do you use treasures like the Heavenly Thunder Talisman so casually?
The lightning struck by the Heavenly Thunder Talisman brought with it flames, and the black shadow began to burn. A strange smell of burnt flesh came out, and most of the black Yin Qi disappeared, revealing a figure with skin and flesh torn.
The thing's eyes glowed red, and its flesh began to repair itself. Its punch was still powerful, and it was obvious that the Heavenly Thunder Talisman could not kill it at all.
Taoist Xuanmiao's face changed slightly, "Not good, we are no match for it!"
Taoists use magic swords, not real swords with sharp blades. They can kill ghosts but not people. How can we fight them!
Mingzhuo took out the peach wood sword, "Just kill it directly."
The black shadow stopped, and it looked at Mingzhuo with its red eyes, and said in a strange and hoarse voice: "You know, the three Taoist swords."
After a pause, he said, "But, the three Taoist swords kill, not life."
The three Taoist swords, Hanguang, Xiaolian, and Chengying, are all invisible and intangible. They kill but not life, and kill ghosts but not people. Like Xiao Lianjian, although it can split a person's body, it will heal in an instant and will not cause any harm to the person's body and soul.
As if in response to its words, the dense vitality enveloped it completely.
Those magic weapons sensed the dense vitality, lost their direction one after another, and fell into everyone's hands.
This was as if in response to Taoist Xuanmiao's words, and everyone's faces changed.
Ming Zhuo: "Then you are wrong, my sword can cut floating clouds above and chop the earth below. Everything in the world can be cut."
When she said the last word "chop", the murderous intent was so strong that the invisible sword light squeezed the air and chopped over with terrifying power.
——
"Ghost servant, come back!" The man in white suddenly opened his eyes and threw out the soul-collecting bottle.
"Looking for death!" His face was gloomy, and he rang the soul-summoning bell without hesitation.
The clanging sound of the bells rang, as if it could shatter a person's soul. The effect was completely different from when Hu Xinting used it.
This is the true power of the soul-summoning bell, which comes from the netherworld, shakes the soul, and shakes the spirit platform.
Even gods and ghosts cannot stop it. Not to mention that they are just a few monks in the world.
——
"Swish!" The defensive talisman blocked the last attack, completely failed, and instantly burned.
He Wangyao looked down at the defensive talisman that burned to ashes in confusion. At that moment, he didn't even understand what happened.
He blinked his eyes and suddenly felt very sleepy. His whole body became light, as if he was going to fall asleep in the next second.
... What a sleep! It's not like he had never experienced soul leaving his body before. He became alert and took out the amulet from his bag.
This was given to everyone by Mingzhuo on the plane. She told them to use it with care because the production was too low. She only saved four recently.
He was worried about damaging it, so he kept it in his bag and almost lost his life.
The soul that was about to leave his body fell back again, and he felt a solid sense of security.
Li Wenhe pressed Yang Juntong's body, "Come and help hold him down!"
Yang Juntong was the most affected by the ringing sound. His whole body was twitching, and even his soul was about to emerge, but he was firmly nailed to the spirit platform by the blood symbol on his forehead.
On the other side, Mingzhuo's sword chopped down, and the ghost servant tried his best to mobilize his vitality to resist, but was still pierced through the chest by the sword.
It has been dead for too long, and it should not feel any physical pain, but it felt a chill through its heart.
"You, your..." It opened its mouth in a hoarse voice, as if it wanted to say something, but fell down headfirst.
"Eyes..." The sound of the larynx vibrating was barely audible, and it was completely silent.
