The Taoist stood still, placed his other hand in front of him, and with a hand seal, a talisman appeared before him, covered with many runes. The Taoist mumbled something, but it was impossible to understand what he was saying.
Just as the blood was about to cover the Taoist priest, a loud voice was heard from heaven and earth.
"Lu Chen was ordered to leave."
The sound was like a booming bell, solemn and heavy.
As soon as the incantation was uttered, the talisman in front of the Taoist suddenly burst open, emitting a dazzling light. For some reason, I felt that the light was like sunlight shining on my body, warm and comforting.
But after that beam of light was emitted, the blood wave that was about to smash into the Taoist's head and the howling tentacles all turned into green smoke and disappeared. The blood that had been soaked by that ghostly thing also dissipated like the tide.
At this moment, only that ghostly thing remained in the world. Under the light, the severed arms and eyeballs attached to it kept rolling off its body, and its size gradually decreased. Before the falling arms and eyeballs could even hit the sea, they turned into green smoke and disappeared.
"Ah!" The ghostly thing let out a painful roar, as if it was enduring great pain.
"Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"
That was originally mine.
"You owe me!" The roaring voice kept coming, as loud as thunder, and filled with resentment. At this moment, all the eyes attached to it were staring at me fiercely, making my heart churn.
"Damn it, you all deserve to die, I want it back."
Suddenly, the ghostly thing began to shrink drastically, its shrinking speed increasing dozens of times compared to when it was illuminated by the light.
It didn't feel passive; it seemed as if it was shrinking on its own. Its originally enormous body kept shrinking towards the middle, like the eye of a storm. Soon, its entire body shrank into that eye of the storm. At this moment, the ghostly thing had completely disappeared, leaving only a small black ball floating in the air.
Seeing this, before I could even understand what was happening, the Taoist priest had already made his move. As if he knew what was going to happen next, he quickly released the sword he was holding behind his back, letting it fall onto the sea. Then, he stood with both hands on his chest and rapidly formed hand seals.
"Order"
With the "Four Extremes Conferring Godhood" incantation, the Taoist clasped his hands together, uttered incantations, and four command spells instantly flew out, circling the black sphere in four directions.
The moment the Command Seals were in place, the black sphere floating in the air suddenly exploded, spewing out countless severed arms mixed with blood with a huge burst of energy.
Suddenly, the Taoist priest spat out a mouthful of blood, which quickly gathered on the command seals, causing them to shine brightly. The emitted light connected with each other, forming a huge tetrahedron around the four command seals, which enveloped the black sphere.
The immense impact energy ripped open the entire ocean, spreading outwards from the black sphere and blasting the surface into a huge crater.
The enormous impact instantly filled the tetrahedron formed by the Command Seal to its fullest extent. The Taoist's hands remained tightly clasped together. I was thrown quite a distance by the force of the impact.
With a loud "bang," the cage formed by the four command seals finally couldn't withstand the pressure and burst after holding on for a while, with blood and severed limbs scattering everywhere.
"Pfft!" The Taoist spat out a mouthful of blood the moment the cage shattered. He was thrown back by the shock, rolled a few times on the sea surface, and then turned into golden light and disappeared.
The immense energy struck me once again, this time sending me flying. Countless severed arms slammed into me, and in an instant, I felt all the bones in my body shatter. Then I crashed to the ground and lost consciousness.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, in some unknown place, a young Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown was meditating when he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. It took him a long time to slowly get up.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, shook his head with a wry smile, and then said to himself, "This is not a good thing."
After saying that, he raised his head again, his gaze fixed in the direction of my house.
"You've formed such a good relationship and gotten involved in such a big karmic debt. Well, if your senior brother finds out, he'll probably give you a good scolding. That's all I can do to help you. The rest is up to your fate."
After saying that, the young Taoist stood up, patted his shoulder, and said, "It's been so long since I've been back. It's time to go back and see my senior brother."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the young Taoist priest vanished.
Not far from my house, a hunched old man and a middle-aged man with a crew cut were watching my house, their faces solemn.
"Elder Xuan, what do you think?" The middle-aged man stared intently in my direction.
The old man shook his head. "It's hard to say." Looking at the house in the distance, where energy was surging, the old man squinted his eyes.
They had been observing the situation here since Fang Shuang returned home. They could have observed it even closer, but the house had been emanating a strong aura from the start, as if it were a warning. That aura carried a trace of ghostly energy, like a thousand-year-old vengeful ghost guarding the surroundings.
The middle-aged man had intended to get closer, but the aura suddenly erupted, enveloping him like a terrifying abyss, as if it were about to explode at any moment.
The middle-aged man was startled and had no choice but to retreat, stopping at a distance where neither side could invade the other's territory to observe.
What happened next made them even more grateful. A sudden surge of evil energy suppressed the eerie ghostly aura. Even from a distance, they could feel a deep fear and stood rooted to the spot, not daring to move an inch. Endless slaughter, accompanied by deep resentment, rolled in.
