Chapter 160: Gathering Yin Formation, Jiangyang City
"I thought it was some evil creature, but it turned out to be a ghost cultivator."
"Looking at the appearance of this ghost cultivator, it seems that he is about to break through the third level and become a fierce ghost. Such a strong evil spirit must have killed many people."
"Hmph, let me see what you want to do."
It is impossible for ordinary people to deal with a third-level evil spirit.
Even if a cultivator encounters a ghost cultivator, it will be extremely difficult to deal with it if he does not master mental attacks.
Because most ghost cultivators have no physical bodies, but are invisible soul bodies, they are highly immune to ordinary physical and magical attacks.
Unless one is a strong person who has broken through the fourth level of Nascent Soul and knows how to master the power of the soul, he can be dealt with.
Lai Yang had already locked onto the other party's breath, and the female ghost couldn't escape under his nose.
Lai Yang watched the ghost girl float into the village, and then a cold and gloomy aura gradually spread, and the sound of a woman crying and mourning could be clearly heard.
Those who hear it are sad and those who listen to it cry.
Immediately afterwards, Lai Yang saw the female ghost knocking on the door of every house, making a bang bang bang noise, while imitating various sounds with her mouth to trick the people in the house into opening the door.
Lai Yang could clearly see that the couple in the room covered their heads with the quilt, hugged each other tightly in fear, and dared not make the slightest sound.
At the same time, strands of negative energy penetrated into the female ghost's body and were absorbed by her.
Seeing that there was no movement in the house and the door was not opened, the female ghost wandered around for a while, sometimes knocking on the door, sometimes knocking on the window, or making other noises to scare the people in the house. Suddenly, more and more negative energy flowed out of the villagers and was absorbed and devoured by the female ghost.
With the other party's strength, they could have just rushed in and killed them, but they used this method to torture the villagers and make them feel fear.
Lai Yang once read in a book that ghost cultivators would use people's seven emotions and six desires to practice, and among them, the fear in people's hearts was the best nourishment for ghost cultivators.
About half an hour later, the female ghost left the family and changed her target and repeated the same trick, constantly reaping the fear and terror in the hearts of the villagers.
Gradually, the female ghost came to the old man's house, and the temperature around him dropped significantly by several degrees, making people feel chilly.
Boom boom boom.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of the female ghost knocking on the door became heavier and louder, which seemed quite noisy and weird in the quiet environment.
"Open the door, open the door, I died a tragic death, you all must pay for my life, open the door!"
The female ghost's hideous and terrifying voice came into the house, and her sharp fingers rubbed against the door, making an extremely harsh sound.
At this moment, a ghostly figure appeared behind the female ghost and said faintly, "Don't you know that disturbing people late at night is illegal?"
The female ghost with a hideous face was startled and looked back suddenly. Blood flowed from her two empty eyes, as if she was filled with shock.
Damn, who is this person? He’s here in the middle of the night and it’s so scary.
No, I am the ghost. How could this person not be afraid of me?
A strong resentment emanated from the female ghost, and she immediately pounced towards Lai Yang with a ferocious look on her face.
Lai Yang stood there motionless, looking at the female ghost with an indifferent expression.
Suddenly, in the darkness of the night, a big black dog jumped out from the side and bit off half of the ghost girl's body in one bite.
The female ghost let out a shrill scream, and then looked at Xiao Hei with shock and fear, unable to believe that this big black dog could possibly hurt her.
"I've already told you not to disturb others since it's late at night. Why don't you listen to my advice?"
"Forget it, Xiao Hei, just leave her alone."
Hearing this, Xiao Hei's face showed a terrifying murderous look, and he rushed towards the female ghost as nimble as an arrow.
"No, let me go, I was wrong, spare my life!"
In a blink of an eye, the female ghost was completely devoured by Xiao Hei, who even burped.
In gratitude to the old man for taking him in, Lai Yang helped them resolve the threat posed by the female ghost as a way of repaying them.
Lai Yang waved his hand to purify all the remaining Yin energy. If this Yin energy was absorbed by a person, it would cause physical discomfort at best, and serious illness at worst. It was still very dangerous.
"Okay, Xiao Hei, go back and rest."
The man and the dog returned to the room as if nothing had happened.
The next day, the old man knocked on the door of Lai Yang's room.
After a while, the door opened.
Lai Yang subconsciously looked at the enthusiastic old man, only to see that the other person's face looked a little haggard, as if he did not sleep well last night.
Seeing that Lai Yang was still alive, the old man was relieved and asked, "Did you hear any noise last night?"
"Yes, I heard it." Lai Yang nodded and asked curiously: "Old man, what exactly happened? Can you tell me in detail?"
"What's the point of telling you? It seems that you listened to me. Since you are still alive, leave here as soon as possible."
A complicated look appeared on the old man's face.
"You don't have to worry anymore. I have already dealt with her. She won't harm you again in the future." Lai Yang said lightly.
Hearing this, the old man's expression froze, and then he looked at Lai Yang with a puzzled and shocked look: "What did you say? What do you mean?"
"I said that the female ghost has been dealt with by me, and you don't have to worry about her appearing again."
"You...you really killed her? You...you are a cultivator?"
The old man was shocked and his old body trembled slightly with excitement.
Lai Yang nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Master Cultivator, thank you for eliminating the danger to the village. I really don't know how to thank you."
"No need to do that, it's just a piece of cake. How did you get involved with that thing?"
Hearing Lai Yang's question, the old man hesitated for a while.
But facing a cultivator who was even more powerful than the female ghost, he did not dare to hide anything and immediately said:
"Actually, she was originally from our village, her name was Li Chunhua."
"Although she is beautiful, her daily life is not decent. Not only is she unfaithful to her husband, she also colluded with others to kill her husband."
"She was later found beaten to death by people from her husband's family."
"After we buried the body, we thought the matter was over. This incident was a disgrace to our village, so no one spoke of it."
"What we didn't expect was that after several months, Li Chunhua actually reappeared and killed several people."
"If anyone tries to escape, she will kill them immediately. She wants to take revenge on us and kill all of us."
After listening to the old man's story, Lai Yang understood the cause and effect of the matter.
"Take me to the place where you buried Li Chunhua. It's not easy for an ordinary person to turn into a ghost and revive again."
"Okay, I'll take you there right away."
Ever since he learned of Lai Yang's identity, the old man's attitude has become very respectful.
When he heard that Lai Yang was going to see where the bodies were buried, he immediately led the way.
In this way, the two people and the dog set out and walked for a long time.
Finally, they came to a group of reeds. The old man pointed to a vacant lot not far away and said, "We buried her body here."
Lai Yang went forward to check the situation. He could clearly sense a trace of yin energy emanating from the bottom of the place, and then he released his spiritual sense.
Lai Yang touched his chin and said softly, "Sure enough, this is a Yin place. The surrounding layout forms a Yin gathering formation. No wonder ghost cultivators were born here."
Then, adhering to the idea of being a good person to the end, Lai Yang destroyed the pattern of this yin-gathering land to allow the warm sunlight to shine in.
Soon, the negative energy nearby was completely dissipated by the scorching power of the sun, until it returned to normal.
"This way everything will be fine. No more ghosts will be bred here."
"Since you took us in for one night, I will help your village solve this problem. I'm leaving now and you should go back too."
Lai Yang turned and looked at the old man.
"Thank you, thank you." The old man hurriedly thanked him.
Lai Yang waved his hand and left with the big black dog.
A few days later, a man arrived from the sky. When he saw the destroyed Yin Gathering Land, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy: "Who is it? Who broke my formation?"
"Asshole, who dares to destroy my Yin Gathering Land? I will never let you go!"
However, at this moment, a sense of fatal danger came to his mind, and the immortal cultivator who suddenly appeared was startled.
I saw a ray of invisible sword intent bursting out from the original Yin gathering place and piercing through the opponent's head.
In an instant, the man who suddenly appeared had eyes full of fear and fell to the ground without any life, without even a chance to resist.
Lai Yang had already seen that this Yin Gathering Land was deliberately created by someone. He had destroyed the other party's layout, and the other party would certainly not give up easily.
Therefore, Lai Yang left a trace of sword intent in the Juyin Land.
Once someone tries to trigger the Yin Gathering Formation, the sword intent left by Lai Yang will directly wipe out the opponent, completely eradicating the root of the problem.
Lai Yang thought that since the other party had set up something like the Yin Gathering Array near an ordinary village, he must be a bad guy, so he might as well kill him once and for all.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the man and the dog finally arrived at Jiangyang City.
Since leaving Mingyue City, he has been traveling outside for quite some time.
Now that he has arrived in Jiangyang City, Lai Yang immediately prepared to have a good time in Jiangyang City for a few days.
The streets of Jiangyang City look very prosperous and lively, with quaint buildings on both sides close to each other.
A clear river runs through the entire Jiangyang City, and several luxurious pleasure boats are parked on the lake.
From the pleasure boat came the sound of clear piano music and the charming laughter of a woman.
Looking around, one can see many wealthy young men having fun and having fun on the pleasure boats.
A ride on a painted boat costs one hundred taels of silver, not to mention other expenses. It is definitely a den of money-spending that ordinary people cannot afford.
In response, Lai Yang simply glanced at it and then looked away, walking on the flower-filled street with the big black dog.
Suddenly, Lai Yang discovered that there was a large group of people gathering under the attic in front of him, with excited and excited looks on their faces.
“There are a lot of people over there.”
"Come on, Xiao Hei, let's go over and see what's going on."
As Lai Yang approached, a red hydrangea flew from somewhere and fell into Lai Yang's hands.
Lai Yang looked at the thing in his hand with a strange expression. Why did it look familiar?
"Fuck, where did this guy come from? He actually robbed me!"
"Damn it, Xuanqing is mine, hand over the things!"
"Get the things back immediately."
Lai Yang was a little confused. He didn't even understand what was going on before he saw these people rushing towards him aggressively.
But Lai Yang soon realized that these people were trying to steal what he had.
In order to avoid being besieged by the crowd, Lai Yang let go of his hand without hesitation, letting the hydrangea fall, and then kicked the hydrangea in his hand away with a precise kick: "Go away."
However, what no one expected was that Lai Yang's kick was too strong, and the hydrangea flew away and disappeared.
Everyone was stunned for a moment. How could they grab the hydrangeas when all the hydrangeas were gone?
"Look what you have done?!" one person accused angrily.
"How dare you ruin our good deeds, you deserve a beating."
"Damn, you are here to cause trouble, right? Brothers, beat him up!"
Seeing this scene, Lai Yang was speechless. This was truly an unprovoked disaster.
Just when Lai Yang was about to take down everyone in front of him, a woman's voice came in time: "Stop it, don't do anything stupid."
Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to the beautiful woman who looked like a maid in the attic, and said in unison:
"The hydrangea is gone, what should I do now?"
"Yeah, how about we start over?"
"I'll definitely get it next time."
"Humph, with you, if this guy hadn't suddenly appeared, I would have gotten it a long time ago."
The maid coughed lightly and said, "Please be quiet, everyone. I will go and ask my mistress for instructions and tell you the result later."
As soon as the maid finished speaking, she received a voice transmission from the attic. Then the maid walked up to Lai Yang and said in a clear voice: "My lady wants to meet you. You can go in."
"No, why?"
"Yes, why is it him? I don't accept it."
"I admit that this guy is handsome, but how can you break the rules? That's clearly cheating."
Upon seeing this, everyone present immediately raised their voices of protest.
"Hmph, my young lady said that there is nothing wrong with this young man's behavior. Now that the hydrangea has been lost, it will naturally belong to whoever gets it in the end."
"Now that the results are out, please go back."
The maid turned her head and looked at everyone, her tone as calm as water, speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Seeing this, everyone had to leave in shame no matter how reluctant they were.
After they left, eyes filled with resentment, hatred, and jealousy fell on Lai Yang, as if they wanted to engrave his appearance into their minds.
"Sir, please don't keep my lady waiting for long, please." The maid turned and looked at Lai Yang, and said in a clear voice.
Now that things have come to this, it would not be a good idea for Lai Yang to just turn around and leave. He might as well go in and take a look, and explain things clearly at the same time.
"Xiao Hei, wait for me here." Lai Yang said to Xiao Hei behind him.
Xiao Hei nodded and immediately stayed obediently near the attic.
Then, Lai Yang followed the maid into the spectacular and luxurious attic.
Not long after, a beautiful woman in a blue dress, with skin as white as cream and a pure and elegant temperament appeared in front of the two men.
"Miss, the person is here."
