Chapter 78 Chapter 78 Will You Blame the Poor Monk
All the ghost energy has been forced out.
Exhausted, Ling Fuying subconsciously leaned on Xuan Min's broad shoulders, and the strong scent of incense and candles filled his nostrils.
Feeling Xuan Min's burning body temperature and the ups and downs of his skin, Fu Ying's cheeks suddenly felt hot, and she realized what she had done.
Her injured wrist was still in Xuan Min's palm. Before she could leave, a cold arm wrapped around her waist and she was back in Chen Fuxue's arms.
At this time, Ling Fuying's limbs were so weak that she didn't care who it was and let Shen Fuxue apply ointment on her.
Xuan Min's scorching spiritual power had just withdrawn from her body, but she was welcomed by Shen Fuxue's cold embrace again, and the fingertips that applied medicine to her were also cold.
She seemed to feel the burning gaze coming from the side, and gently pushed Chen Fuxue, but he hugged her tighter.
"Let me go."
Shen Fuxue then slowly let go, but still held her wrist to apply the medicine.
The wound healed as before, but Shen Fuxue did not let go.
The soft sleeve slid across Xuan Min's palm. He watched Ling Fuying being embraced by another man, but he could do nothing. He wanted to get up and leave, but he met her clear eyes.
"There's enough room here, please take a seat, Master."
Xuan Min lowered his eyes, "Thank you, benefactor."
Chen Fuxue tightened her grip around Ling Fuying's hand and said to her, "Xiaoman, would you please sit here?"
She sat between Xuan Min and Shen Fuxue, but Shen Fuxue really didn't want her to be too close to Xuan Min.
"Why?" Ling Fuying didn't want to move anymore.
"It's less windy inside."
"I don't want to move." Ling Fuying rejected his proposal.
Not knowing whether the ghost soldiers would come back again, Fu Ying's spiritual power was strangely consumed. She stuffed two spiritual pills into her mouth to replenish the lost spiritual power.
At this time, a message came from her communication stone, and Fu Ying couldn't imagine who would contact her at this time.
When I took it out, it was Ling Huai's preface.
The trial on Linghuan Island should be over by now, so why would Ling Huaixu look for her?
Where is it?
【What's up?】
[Did Yuchi Xianyue hide you?] Ling Huaixu returned to the Three Thousand Territory to find the house deserted. Everyone in the mansion said that Yuchi Xianyue and Ling Fuying were not convenient to see guests.
Ling Huaixu had mentioned to Yuchi Xianyue last time that he wanted to bring Ling Fuying back to Zheyuan Palace. He just thought that Yuchi Xianyue had deliberately hidden Ling Fuying.
He had no hope of receiving the message from the stone, but Ling Fuying actually replied to him.
Faced with Ling Huaixu's words, Fu Ying didn't know how to respond for a moment. By now, everyone in the Domain Lord's Mansion should have known about Yuchi Xianyue's disappearance, but no news had been leaked, which proved that the mansion was also blocking the news.
[I wasn't hidden by him. I'm fine now. I won't say anything else.] Ling Fuying cut off contact with Ling Huaixu.
When she was communicating with Ling Huaixu, she noticed the gazes of people around her. She looked up belatedly and found that Chen Fuxue, Xuan Min, Ling Zhouci and even Yufeng were all looking at her.
"Xiaoman, who is it?" Shen Fuxue's gaze stayed on the communication stone in Ling Fuying's hand.
"A person of no importance."
Fu Ying had no time to pay attention to the surrounding gazes. She tried to find the little snake that had been wrapped around her fingertips, but it seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
Looking inward at his Dantian and various meridians, he found that the vague connection that had existed before was completely severed.
Ling Fuying tried to call it in his heart and finally felt a connection.
It was now bright outside, and the thousands of evil spirits that had attacked them before had left no trace, making it impossible to detect their hiding place.
Night fell again, and the faint connection with Ling Fuying gradually strengthened.
The figure of a transparent little snake appeared in her mind.
What are you?
The little snake was still a little slow to react, and slowly realized that it was Ling Fuying who was speaking to it, "I am Yuling."
[Similar to Blade & Soul?]
The little snake nodded.
What jade?
[This is the Nine Tribulations Jade you are looking for.]
Ling Fuying was at a loss. Did she get the jade spirit of the Nine Tribulations Jade?
So we have already signed the contract?
[I guess so, but it's only a temporary contract, and the contract you made is with me, not the Nine Tribulations Jade.]
Generally speaking, just like a sword, the sword body and the sword spirit are naturally one, but now its situation is a bit complicated.
[I was almost completely devoured, but luckily I managed to escape. Now the Nine Tribulations Jade is controlled by another bad guy.]
[Is this bad guy a ghost? ]
Yu Ling continued to shake her head. "Originally, there was only me, but a hundred years ago, a new Yu Ling emerged. Born from evil, it even gave itself the name Soul Ring, which is incredibly unpleasant. If we can't purify it, the consequences will be disastrous."
Yu Ling can still have two, which broadens Fu Ying's horizons.
So now you're being ostracized?
Yu Ling stopped talking.
"I'll go back." It said weakly, without any confidence.
If Ling Fuying wants to get the Nine Tribulations Jade, he will inevitably have to deal with the bad guys that Yu Ling mentioned.
[Do you know about ghosts? ]
[I'm just an ant working for that bad guy.]
In its eyes, the ghost is just an ant, and that bad guy is probably difficult to deal with.
"I can help you find it, but you need to help me get rid of the Soul Ring. Otherwise, you, me, and even the entire Daluo Continent will be completely destroyed."
Ling Fuying didn't think she had the power to fight against this thing. If it was really so dangerous, she wouldn't risk her own life.
Sensing her retreat, Yu Ling said again: [I will help you.]
You were being beaten, yet you still helped her, which made Fu Ying not trust it.
But while he was thinking, a strong evil aura filled the air, forcing Fu Ying to focus his mind and pay attention to the movements around him.
A figure formed by evil spirits appeared under the worship of tens of thousands of ghost soldiers. His face looked like a man, but his appearance was really not good.
"I wonder if you are here to see me?" A rough and unpleasant voice echoed in the silent night.
His gaze slowly shifted to Chen Fuxue and Xuan Min.
He was no match for the two of them, but he was not afraid at all.
No one answered, and the ghost became impatient, with a distorted face.
At this moment, a murderous aura surged behind him like a raging wave, corroding everything it passed through. The frost embers covering the snow split the murderous aura, and the dazzling light tore the night sky in two.
But the evil spirit could not be completely eliminated. It covered the sky and completely blocked their vision, and even disrupted their judgment, making it impossible to accurately perceive the location of the evil spirit.
[It must have done this.] Lingyu thought in Ling Fuying's mind.
[Now, the only way to deal with this bad guy is for me to return to the Nine Tribulations Jade and seize control.]
Ling Fuying pondered Yu Ling's words while observing her surroundings. Her hand was held tightly by Chen Fuxue, and other places around her were surrounded by Xuan Min and the others.
[How do I return to the Nine Tribulations Jade?] Ling Fuying asked calmly.
[I can only sense a weak connection right now. In a few days, the connection with the Nine Tribulations Jade will probably be completely severed. You need to find the exact location of the Nine Tribulations Jade. Before that, you must fully bind yourself to the contract with me. Only then will I be able to compete with it.]
[So you are absorbing my spiritual energy to strengthen yourself? ]
Ling Yu was speechless. "I'm really desperate. Wait until I regain control of the Nine Tribulations Jade. Then you'll be my master, and the benefits will be countless."
[But if you fail, won't I die too? ]
Lingyu remained silent.
Therefore, under the current circumstances, unless Fu Ying wants to die, he cannot conclude a complete contract with it.
The evil spirit and the sharp and piercing cries of evil spirits around him stirred Fu Ying's nerves.
At this moment, a huge rock came down on his head, forcing Fu Ying to fly up with his sword to avoid its attack. However, the blood-red jade statue covered the sky, and the blood color was so dazzling that he could not escape it no matter where he flew to hide.
Ling Fuying's eyes were covered with a layer of blood mist. When she regained her sight, she found herself in a blood-colored cage, a huge cave. The walls seemed to be covered with blood vessels that were constantly wriggling and transporting blood. Her feet were burning and the soles of her shoes were being corroded.
Ling Fuying used her spiritual power to wrap her body to resist these evil spirits, but the spiritual power in her body would eventually be exhausted.
She quickly looked around and found that she was the only one here, with no sign of Chen Fuxue and the others.
Ling Fuying summoned her sword, injected spiritual power into it and quickly stabbed it at the wall. There was a sharp clang, and a gap appeared on the tip of the sword, but there was no trace of it on the wall. Her attack was just a tickle.
【Spirit Jade! 】
Ling Fuying tried to contact it, but there was no response at all, and nothing happened.
Her heart was beating so fast that she could even hear the sound of her blood rushing faster. The scarlet color here looked very much like the inside of a human body, and it felt like she was in underground lava.
She immediately took out the teleportation talisman, but the teleportation day infused with spiritual power did not respond at all.
"Don't bother. You can't get out. Just wait to die."
This voice came from nowhere and kept ringing in her ears.
"That loser is nothing special, and the host he's bound to is ridiculously weak."
"If you obey my orders, perhaps I will show mercy and spare your life."
"Where are you?"
"Where? After all, an ant like you can't find me."
"Really? Are you afraid that I'll find you and kill you if you don't show up?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was dead silence.
Ling Fuying clenched her palms. The concentration of the evil energy that corroded her body suddenly increased, and a large amount of spiritual power was lost. Her palms were sweaty, and she felt uneasy because of the unknown.
Fortunately, she bought a lot of spiritual pills before coming to Daluozhou, which were enough to keep her going for a while.
"Haha, you're so arrogant. You can't kill me even if you're standing in front of me."
A pitch-black object appeared in front of Ling Fuying, and its stench was so strong that it made her feel nauseous.
"Where are the others?"
"Why should you care about others? If you don't agree to submit to me, then you can reunite with them underground!"
The spiritual energy in his dantian was becoming increasingly thinner, forcing Fu Ying to struggle to deal with this unknown ghost thing.
"Sir, I certainly don't want to risk my own life. Please tell me what you want me to do."
"Then hand over that piece of trash to me first."
The waste it was talking about was naturally Yu Ling, but Ling Fuying himself couldn't even make it appear.
"I really don't want to have anything to do with it. It came to me on its own, and I can't get it out."
Ling Fuying was still contacting Lingyu in his mind. Didn't it say that there was a way to regain control of the Jiujie Jade? But now there was no sign of it.
Normal attacks were useless against this ghost thing, so Fu Ying had to think of a way to escape.
She was still trying hard to contact Lingyu. The burning sensation on the soles of her feet was intense, and the ghost thing in front of her was still staring at her hungrily.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me..."
"Wait a minute, sir. I'll hand it over right away."
She extended her middle finger, and a small transparent snake appeared, coiling around.
"You...you actually went back on your word!" Lingyu's tone was full of disbelief and her face was heartbroken.
The ghost was delighted to see the two of them falling out. "You useless piece of shit! The person you're after isn't that great, and you still want to beat me? How can you win? Just let me devour you."
A wisp of thick black mist emerged from its body and pounced towards Lingyu, swallowing it into its stomach.
"Sir, can you please let me go now? I swear to be loyal to you until death and will never disobey you."
It was very pleased with Ling Fuying's compliment. It was helpless against that man Xiu, and this person in front of it could be of use.
Just as he was about to speak, his stomach felt hot and burning, as if a fire was burning. He immediately wanted to spit out the spirit jade, but no matter how he roared, or even stretched his tentacles into his stomach, he could not expel the jade spirit.
As the saying goes, it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. Now Yu Ling is clinging to its core, trying to destroy it.
It was naturally impossible for it to do it alone, but what surprised it was that the human cultivator it chose actually had a magic weapon that could restrain this bad thing.
Ling Fuying also had an idea. Now that she was able to control the heavenly fire for a short period of time, she asked Yu Ling, who had signed a temporary contract with her and would not be harmed by the heavenly fire, to carry the heavenly fire into the belly of the evil thing.
The heavenly fire burned the Soul Ring madly, and it screamed miserably. The strong evil spirit on its body was burned away by the heavenly fire.
This made Fu Ying and Yu Ling dare not take it lightly.
Sure enough, it soon regained its composure, panting. "These are just some little tricks. Are you worthy enough to go against me?"
This time it did not hesitate at all, and the evil spirit that could penetrate into the bone marrow would envelope Fu Ying and Ling Yu.
At this extremely dangerous moment, she wrapped herself in heavenly fire to isolate herself from the evil spirit's attack.
This heavenly fire is the purest thing in heaven and earth, and is the natural enemy of evil spirits.
"This place is inside the Nine Tribulations Jade. I want to take this opportunity to seize back control of the Nine Tribulations Jade." Yu Ling said.
But this required strong spiritual power to support it. It would be very difficult for her to survive this time. So Fu Ying swallowed several bottles of spiritual elixir in one breath. The spiritual power within three days was replenished in an instant. She immediately passed it to Ling Yu. Success or failure depended on this one move.
The Soul Ring has been burned by the Heavenly Fire, and now is the best time for the Spirit Jade. It rushes out of the layers of evil spirits and goes straight to the fetal heart of the Nine Tribulations Jade that breeds spiritual power, trying its best to regain its original identity.
The Soul Ring is nothing but a collection of evil, and it will drag the Nine Tribulations Jade, which is the most precious treasure of heaven and earth, into a place of no return. It must reverse all this.
Fu Ying had no idea about the situation on Lingyu's side. The contract they had signed was only a temporary one and they had no empathy.
Thousands of evil spirits were like sharp blades cutting her flesh back and forth, forcing Fu Ying to break her limit. She completely mobilized the heavenly fire in her body regardless of anything, and held Hunying back to buy time for Yuling. Now they would prosper and suffer together, and there was no chance of retreat at all.
Ling Fuying was unable to control such a huge heavenly fire. She was burned to the point of numbness, and there was only a raging fire in front of her eyes.
The shrill screams and roars rang in her ears, making Fu Ying's vision go black and her consciousness gradually drifted away.
But she still tried to persevere, mechanically stuffing the elixir into her mouth.
[Quick! Sign a contract with me! I only have one step left!]
Lingyu's voice kept echoing in Fuying's mind, but she had no idea how to sign a contract with it.
There was a click, and something started to connect, and then she sensed the situation on Lingyu's side.
It was fighting with the seriously injured Hun Ying, and they began to fight against each other and wanted to devour each other.
It formed a complete bond with Ling Fuying, and was also contaminated with the heavenly fire in her body. The spiritual power was infused into its body, and the situation turned around, with Yu Ling temporarily gaining the upper hand.
Ling Fuying didn't know where they were. All around them were black and red blood vessels and meridians, connected to a huge beating "heart".
I think this is the key to their fight for the Nine Tribulations Jade.
Ling Fuying sensed Yu Ling's emotions and felt anxious. He didn't know how Chen Fuxue and Xuan Min were doing.
Their fight was so long that Fu Ying didn't know how much time had passed. She calmed down and meditated to provide Yu Ling with a constant supply of spiritual power to fight against Hun Ying.
Fu Ying had no idea what was happening outside and could only devote all his energy to supporting Ling Yu.
The battle finally came to an end. After all, Lingyu is a spiritual object of heaven and earth, born from the Nine Tribulations Jade over billions of years. Even if it is weak, the connection between it and the Nine Tribulations Jade is far from being a soul necklace born out of disaster.
When Lingyu completely regained control of the Nine Tribulations Jade, the vast spiritual power of heaven and earth, but also the mixed spiritual power carrying countless evil spirits and disaster forces, poured into the body of Ling Fuying, who had signed a contract with Lingyu.
The pain that pierced her bones made her faint again.
…
Lingyu devoured the soul necklace. They had formed a contract, and the soul necklace carrying the power of disaster invaded her body.
Even though the heavenly fire in her body was fighting against it, she was still unable to do anything about it in a short time.
Unless there is something extremely yang that can suppress it together with the heavenly fire.
Fu Ying's consciousness became a little fuzzy, and she heard a gentle and compassionate voice in her ears that could purify all filth.
Slowly opening my eyes, the face of the person in front of me became clearer and clearer.
Ling Fuying's eyelashes trembled, "Mage?"
"Donor, what's wrong with you?"
This was the first time Xuan Min broke his usual composure. He looked flustered and his fingers were trembling slightly.
The girl in front of him was covered in sweat, her cheeks were pale, and her eyelids were drooping, losing the liveliness of the past. The body in his palm seemed like it would disappear from this world at any time.
Ling Fuying didn't have the energy to speak much. He shook his head and almost fainted.
Xuan Min embraced her body and immediately probed her meridians with his spiritual sense, but found that the situation inside her body was far more complicated than he had imagined.
The strong murderous aura almost invaded Ling Fuying's dantian. If she was completely swallowed up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He tried to expel the evil energy from his dantian just like he did last time when he forced out the ghost energy.
But this time his spiritual power couldn't get close at all.
If it cannot be discharged, the only way is internal purification.
After Xuan Min realized what the method was, he tightened his hold on Ling Fuying's arms. He was hesitating, not because he was about to break his vow, but because of whether she was willing.
But facing Ling Fuying's weak breath, there was not much time to hesitate.
"Donor." He closed his eyes and called Ling Fuying in a trembling voice in her ear.
Ling Fuying opened his eyes and uttered a very soft response.
Will you blame me?
But he didn't ask.
Instead, he lowered his head and kissed her lips cautiously and devoutly.
