Chapter 400: Meeting Ophiopogon japonicus at the Gate of Hell
Fortunately, thanks to Liu Lan's unique fragrance-dividing technique, the group was able to catch their breath.
No one expected that the eldest daughter of the Liu family, who had no cultivation at all, could be so powerful.
Although the Qimen Fragrance Dividing Technique does not require any cultivation, it does consume one's energy. However, it is only a delaying tactic. The effect of the Fragrance Dividing Technique will not last long. Once the incense sticks are burned out, the Qimen Technique will be released.
Green smoke spread to form a magic circle. Those evil spirits who had lost their minds were like headless flies trapped in a maze. Some were phantoms, some were visible, all of them howling and running around, but they could never get close to the people in the center of the circle.
Although they were safe for the time being, Xinyi and Chengqi did not dare to let their guard down. Even Zhanli, who was held tightly by Lianqiao, was secretly pinching his fingers.
Liu Lan's forehead was covered in sweat, and she looked extremely exhausted. Ah Dao saw it and felt very anxious. He then looked at Long Qi who was sleeping like a dead pig, and wanted to slap him a few times. However, because there were too many people around, he suppressed the urge.
What a useless thing! You can't rely on me at all!
But there's no point in just worrying! I'm almost becoming a meal for the evil spirits!
Lian Qiao and Zhao Wuyang were also very anxious and kept calling out to Long Qi, but Long Qi still didn't respond at all and just slept on his own, as if the danger around him had nothing to do with him.
The more anxious he was, the faster time flew by. Seeing that the incense stick was almost gone, Long Qi still didn't react at all.
A short rest allowed several people to recover some strength, but Liu Lan seemed to have exhausted all her strength, panting and sweating profusely.
Miss Liu Lan has no cultivation to begin with, and she will definitely not be able to recover in a short period of time after wasting so much energy. This time she can only fight with her back against the wall.
Several people held their weapons tightly and made finger gestures. Everyone seemed to have made up their minds to fight to the death. Even Zhao Wuyang and Lian Qiao, who were frightened in their hearts, stood up with solemn expressions.
"Are you scared?" Lian Qiao asked Zhao Wuyang.
Zhao Wuyang swallowed his saliva and said with his neck stiff, "I'm not afraid!"
Looking at Zhao Wuyang who was trying to remain calm, Lian Qiao smiled bitterly - I'm afraid if I want to, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, I'm afraid too!
Lian Qiao came to rescue Lingxiang. He thought they were just some monsters, something he had seen before, but he didn't expect to encounter such a terrifying thing as a ghost.
It's true that there are ghosts in the underworld, but no one said they would encounter them face to face! Evil ghosts are so rampant, and those underworld generals and ghost officials don't seem to care about it. Are they all good-for-nothings?
But no matter how angry I am, now is not the time to complain. The most important thing right now is to save my life.
The incense sticks burned out, and the smoke became thinner, leaving only a faint scent of sandalwood.
Those evil spirits finally broke free and stopped running around. Their shrill cries echoed throughout the mountain.
Several people were ready to fight, but at this moment, Long Qi's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he sensed danger. He suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up, drew his sword and slashed around.
Sword energy burst out, creating a magic circle on the ground. Flames gushed out, separating the evil spirits that were flying towards them and surrounding several people.
After seeing the situation clearly, Long Qi scratched his head, his face full of confusion: Huh? What happened?
Just now in my sea of consciousness, I felt someone calling me, but when I walked out of the door, I found many monsters and demons, so I subconsciously swung my sword to chop them. Now that I have come to my senses, I didn't expect to be in such a situation.
this……
Is this a dream or reality?
"You're finally alive!"
Adao shouted, and Zhao Wuyang was also very happy.
Long Qi heard it carefully and was sure that he had really woken up, but what was the situation now?
Zhao Wuyang briefly told Long Qi the whole story, and Long Qi finally understood it, but he still didn't quite understand.
"What about Bai Wuchang?"
Yes! Where is Venerable Wuchang?
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing where Bai Wuchang had gone. It was Xinyi who explained the situation.
It turned out that after the gate to the underworld was opened by Bai, Xinyi was the last one to go in. Before leaving, she saw that Bai Wuchang didn't seem to want to go with her, so she asked about it. Unexpectedly, Bai Wuchang said that he would wait for the later comers.
Latecomer?
Is there anyone else coming to the underworld?
But now is not the time to think about these things. We should first think of a way to escape from this predicament.
Long Qi calmed down and realized that he seemed to have swung the Longyuan Sword just now, but it did not feel as heavy as before. So he tried it again, and it was indeed very light.
I don't know why, but it's a good thing.
Long Qi asked the men to retreat, then bit his finger, twisted his fingers, and smeared the blood from his fingertips on the sword.
The Dragon Abyss suddenly glowed red, like the rising sun. Long Qi raised his sword to strike, but the move was only halfway through when a bell rang and something flew in from a distance, blocking his sword.
It turned out to be a mourning stick! However, the paper-made mourning stick was black, which was a little different from the usual ones.
As everyone was surprised, a figure descended from the sky. He was wearing a black robe and an official hat with the words "Peace in the World" written on it.
It’s Black Impermanence!
As soon as Hei Wuchang appeared, he threw out an iron chain. The chain was like a black snake, constantly weaving between the evil spirits. In the blink of an eye, it bound them tightly. No matter how the souls struggled, they could not break free from the chain.
Groups of souls were locked up, each one like an exiled prisoner, with the clanging sounds, the scene was spectacular.
Just as they caught all the ghosts, two figures flew over from a distance, one tall and thin, the other burly.
The tall and thin one has a majestic face, wearing colorful armor and holding a golden halberd; the burly one has a leisurely look, wearing a black robe and holding a little white tiger in his arms.
These two people are Shentu and Yulei, the gate gods of Ghost Gate.
Shentu and Yulei nodded to Hei Wuchang without saying anything else. They transformed into beams of divine light and rushed through the two gates of the Ghost Gate. As they transformed, the originally bare stone bases of the gates suddenly became engraved with two divine statues, looking extremely majestic and intimidating.
Everyone was about to step forward to pay their respects, but Hei Wuchang just waved his hand, raised his hand to point everyone in a direction, then disappeared into the mist, pulling a chained evil ghost and shaking the mourning stick in his hand.
"This Venerable Hei Wuchang is still as frugal with words as ever!" Zhao Wuyang couldn't help but sigh.
Xinyi smiled and rubbed Zhao Wuyang's head, then looked in the direction Hei Wuchang pointed. Someone could be vaguely seen staggering in the fog.
When everyone saw this, they immediately became alert - could there be more remnants?
But then he thought again, based on the magical powers that Hei Wuchang had just used, there shouldn't be any fish that slipped through the net, so who could be coming?
Could it be the demon clan?
As the two figures approached, everyone could see clearly that they were none other than two familiar faces, one with a wolf head and the other with Bo Luohui, who was carrying someone on his back.
"It's Senior Sister Ophiopogon!" Lian Qiao shouted.
Xinyi clenched her fists and stared at the person on Bo Luohui's back, not daring to move at all, for fear that everything she saw was a dream.
Returning home...
It’s his homecoming!
