Chapter 226: Finally Freed

The black thing looked confused.

He looked at the group of living souls following him in a row, feeling somewhat puzzled.

"They are all very well behaved. They go wherever I go. When I get out, I will send their souls back to their bodies, right?"

Since these people are not dead, they should be able to wake up once their souls return to their bodies.

"I'm not talking about these living souls, but the wronged souls who died."

"Ghost?"

"There are one hundred and eight wronged souls in this building." Lin Xiyue quickly drew the formation.

She took out a few copper coins from her bag and placed them on the centers of the array.

"Are the wronged souls you are talking about the workers who died when the building was built?" The black thing inexplicably made the background feel a little chilly.

But after thinking about it, he felt something was not right.

"If the souls of those people are here, why can't I see them?"

"Because someone used your soul as a formation and sealed them in this building."

"My soul?" The dark thing was even more confused. "Am I so powerful that I can trap so many wronged souls?"

It sounds like he's quite important.

"You were born on the day of the Seven Yin Hours, making you the most suitable to be the eye of this sinister array." That's why he was targeted by someone with ulterior motives.

"So I have been trapped here for so many years. It turns out that someone did it intentionally." The black thing was filled with resentment and wanted to kill that person.

He said how unlucky he was that he would be trapped in one place and unable to get out even after his death.

It turns out that someone was plotting against me.

"Weren't the 108 people who jumped off the building before also not simple?" asked the dark thing.

Lin Xiyue nodded. "The souls of those people are also sealed around this building. The person who set up this formation wants to turn this place into a place of absolute darkness."

"The Land of Absolute Darkness... What on earth does that person want to do?"

This time Lin Xiyue did not answer.

The dark thing seemed to have guessed, "Is it related to the corpse from before?"

"Okay, now you stand in the middle of the formation." Lin Xiyue pointed to the center of the formation she had set up.

The black thing floated in obediently.

"Close your eyes."

The black thing closed its eyes obediently, and then he suddenly felt bursts of sharp wind in his ears, which made his soul and body ache.

He subconsciously wanted to open his eyes, but he heard Lin Xiyue shouting, "Don't open your eyes!"

The strong wind almost blew him upside down, and he began to hear a howling sound in his ears.

The voice was so sad and plaintive that it made people feel cold in their hearts.

The sounds seemed to accumulate in his ears, and then became more and more...

The black thing felt as if its entire body was wrapped in something cold.

The cold aura rushed towards him like a violent wave.

He closed his eyes tightly and shrank his body into a small ball.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a huge suction force, and his body involuntarily rushed out of the formation.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now." Lin Xiyue's voice was right next to his ear. The black thing opened its eyes and found that it was held in Lin Xiyue's hand.

He let out a long breath and was then stunned by the scene before him.

In the formation where he had just stood, countless ghosts were struggling desperately inside as if they were trapped.

"This...these are all..." Even though the black thing itself is a ghost, it is the first time to see so many unrecognizable ghosts.

They really didn't look good. Each of them had either huge holes on their bodies or exposed scarlet flesh. Some of the ghosts even had their mouths sealed tightly with cement and they whimpered in pain.

"These wronged souls are the workers who died when the building was first constructed. They have been suppressed underground by the formation of this building over the years, and their resentment has grown deeper and deeper."

Lin Xiyue said as she set up another formation, and then let the black thing stand in the middle of the formation.

After seeing these ghosts, the dark thing was obviously more scared.

"Sister Suiyi, what are we going to summon this time..."

Haven't all those ghosts been summoned?

The dark thing trembled.

"Close your eyes." Lin Xiyue did not answer him, but gave an order. The black thing quickly closed its eyes, and the sound of cold wind whistling in its ears began again.

But this time, the feeling of the soul being scratched was not as obvious as before.

But the biting cold still made the black thing shiver constantly.

Soon it was all over.

The black thing was caught in Lin Xiyue's hand again.

He opened his eyes carefully and looked towards the place where he had just stood.

Sure enough, there was another large group of ghosts trapped there, but these ghosts were a little different from the previous ones.

Their bodies were twisted, their expressions were extremely exaggerated, and some even had faces that looked like they were flattened.

"These... these are the people who jumped off the building..." These ghosts had long lost their minds due to being suppressed by the formation for a long time.

The dark thing barely recognized several familiar faces.

He was particularly impressed by the ghosts of the children.

"They have been suppressed here for too long and have long lost their minds." Not only that, their souls are extremely weak. If they don't reincarnate, they will most likely be torn apart.

"Sister Suiyi, can you send them to reincarnate?" The black thing felt heavy in his heart and a little uncomfortable.

Many of the people here saw him jump with their own eyes.

That feeling of powerlessness is really uncomfortable.

"Okay...but I need to purify the evil spirits from them first."

Lin Xiyue pointed at the formation she had set up.

"I just set up two formations. One is to trap these ghosts, and the other is to purify the evil spirits."

After Lin Xiyue finished speaking, she sat down cross-legged. She pinched a few fingers and suddenly a few copper coins on the ground flashed with golden light and turned into silk threads that enveloped the ghosts.

The black thing saw the threads and began to spin slowly as if they had souls.

Every time the thread turned, the trapped ghost let out a wail.

It was as if something was being extracted from their souls, forming a faint black smoke.

Just like that, after an unknown amount of time, the black smoke became so thin that it was almost invisible. Lin Xiyue then stopped and began to liberate these souls.

After an unknown amount of time, all the ghosts trapped in the formation were reincarnated.

The black guy felt as if something on his body suddenly became lighter, and an invisible force escaped from his body.
