Chapter 73: Little Gain (Please continue reading and vote!)
Ghosts and vengeful spirits are not easy to deal with. If his Soul Devouring Evil Armor Technique is perfected, he might still be able to put up a fight.
Unfortunately, it's still far from perfect.
Without learning targeted methods of self-control, and being a third-level Foundation Establishment cultivator whose soul had turned into a ghost, his cultivation level dropped a notch, but it was still within the Foundation Establishment range.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Yu had already made his analysis.
"We can't be reckless. If we can lure them back to Xuan Gu Mountain, Situ Hong might have a way to deal with it."
Although vengeful spirits are powerful, they also have weaknesses, and the Five Yin Peak's inheritance is very effective against these kinds of creatures.
So Wang Yu turned and ran.
Deacon Xu, now a vengeful ghost, also drifted after them, his body billowing with black smoke. Under the direct sunlight, his speed was much slower.
Ghosts have no intelligence; they only act according to their instincts.
The sunlight shining down from the sun is one of the most masculine forces in the world, and it is extremely effective in suppressing such evil spirits and demons.
First-tier ghosts rarely appear even during the day.
During the seduction, Wang Yu's eyes transformed into the [Taiyin You Tong], with two crescent moon marks appearing in his pupils, entering a "moon-gazing" state.
Looking back suddenly, I realized that the vengeful ghost had not just one "yin" aura, but two.
The second one undoubtedly belonged to Liu Jinxian, but that "yin" aura had a peculiar appearance, like a mosquito, and was rampaging through the body of the vengeful ghost.
And it is being digested at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it looks like it's about to be destroyed.
"Grass!"
Liu Jinxian cannot die. Of the more than 500 people on this Xuan Gu Mountain mission, only the four of them remain. If she dies, her father, Master Bi She, will surely hold her accountable.
He, Situ Hong, and Gu Zhengshun are all going to be in big trouble!
If she were alive, she would attract the attention of many disciples of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, because of her powerful background.
While pondering, Wang Yu scratched his wrist with his fingernail, and with a gentle squeeze, some thick, reddish-black blood that looked a little stale oozed out.
This is a product of the modified [Corpse Demon Secret Technique].
———Heavenly Yin Blood!
It can give Wang Yu's physical body the characteristics of a ghost, while the "Corpse Demon Bone" can give his physical body the characteristics of a zombie.
This secret technique is of extremely high level. If he has any way to deal with the Foundation Establishment Ghost, it is only this blood, as well as the "Yin Blood Pill" that is constantly being gestated in his body!
The problem of temporarily halting the suppression of death should not be too difficult.
After all, he could only condense one Yin Blood Pill in his body, which had always been used to suppress death energy. Fortunately, the storage space helped him condense it continuously; otherwise, it would be hard to say what the consequences would have been.
I slowed my pace.
The moment the two rushed into the woods, Wang Yu suddenly turned around, flicked a drop of blood from his fingertip, and the rich spiritual energy on it immediately attracted the vengeful ghost.
Wang Yu stepped onto the tree trunk with his toes, used the momentum to do a backflip, and actually rushed back. He lightly patted his chest with his right hand, and through his skin and flesh, a "Yin Blood Pill" transformed into a stream of energy and surged into his mind.
His eyes turned bloodshot, and his two upper canine teeth rapidly elongated.
He pushed the characteristics of the Corpse Demon Bone to their limit, and in addition to its strong physical body, the zombie also has the ability to devour resentment and feed on vengeful spirits.
With the secret technique activated, Wang Yu recalled some insights into the [Soul Devouring Evil Armor Technique], bit into the vengeful ghost, and sucked hard.
It felt like taking a sip of jelly.
It was like a range hood, swallowing the black mist and part of the spirit's soul into its body.
Three inches below the navel, the seed of the Evil Armor Technique begins to sprout.
The black armor patterns spread rapidly across Wang Yu's body, and in the blink of an eye, a set of ferocious black armor appeared on his body. This was a magical technique!
Once you grasp the essence, you can quickly master it, and its power is immense. You only need to bear the future side effects to rapidly build up your combat strength.
One bite wasn't enough. Enveloped in the Black Fiend Armor, Wang Yu could reach out and touch the vengeful ghost. As the ghost swallowed the Heavenly Yin Blood, he took another deep breath.
Now, the vengeful ghost that Deacon Xu's soul had transformed into was becoming increasingly faint, and his cultivation level had dropped from the initial Foundation Establishment stage to the Qi Refining stage.
Wang Yu kicked him, sending him flying out of the woods and into the scorching sun. Without the protection of the black mist, his cultivation level dropped again, and his soul was evaporating at a visible speed.
Less than three breaths later, Liu Jinxian fell out of his body.
Aside from her pale complexion, her life force was relatively stable, but the blood mosquito worm standing on her forehead looked sickly, as if it were on the verge of death.
After a few more breaths, the vengeful ghost was completely obliterated by the sunlight.
Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't expected this thing to be so easy to deal with. In fact, all his power was designed to counter ghosts, but he hadn't considered this possibility.
After all, no one uses their fists to beat up a ghost or spirit...
"What a blunder."
He glanced at Liu Jinxian, who was lying perfectly still, but ignored her. Instead, he quickly returned to the first battlefield, found Deacon Xu's body again, and put the storage bag into his pocket.
He then put the body into a specially marked storage bag before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
If you gain something, you haven't lost anything.
and.
[Placement Slot 4: Soul Devouring Evil Armor Technique]
"Soul Devouring Evil Armor Technique (61/100): Thirty-six times a day, can be mastered in two years."
He only inhaled two breaths of the Foundation Establishment Ghost, which actually saved him three years. He could directly reach the Perfection stage in two years, just in time for the Xuan Gu Mountain mission to end.
"So this is a magical technique... It's truly amazing."
However, while this saved time, there is a risk of backlash from the evil spirits in the future, so it's hard to say whether it's a loss or a gain.
He lifted his robe.
He discovered a ghost skull pattern the size of a fingernail below his navel, and could feel a deep malice when they looked at each other.
"We lost money!"
Wang Yu frowned and returned, carrying Liu Jinxian on his shoulder, back to Xuan Gu Mountain.
Now that Deacon Xu's threat has been eliminated, there's no need for him to seek refuge in Fengzhou Prefecture. It's better to go back; once he returns to his sect, he can investigate the demonic secret techniques for improving aptitude.
He glanced at the high-grade storage bag wrapped around Liu Jinxian's waist and was somewhat tempted, but after careful consideration, he decided not to touch it.
However, it was Deacon Xu's storage bag that gave Wang Yu a beautiful dream. There was nothing of value inside, just a few second-tier low-grade magic artifacts, some destroyed, some damaged, and their value severely depreciated.
There were only five spirit stones, which was quite surprising.
This high-end storage bag has a capacity roughly the size of a basketball court, and many of the bottles and jars inside are empty.
The only thing that brought him comfort was the collection of elixirs.
It covers almost all the first-tier items that can be exchanged by the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, as well as three second-tier pill recipes. Alchemists do not necessarily need to be proficient in all the pill recipes.
But by reading more, one can gain insights into other areas and even create one's own prescriptions.
Coincidentally, he also found a mysterious silk scroll written in blood-stained characters inside, exactly the same as Xu Jiaojiao's, and quickly glanced at it.
Then, the feedback from the placement bar can be used to obtain information from it.
This is also a magical and strange technique.
The spell, called the "Ghost Transformation Curse," was originally a strange technique used to create evil spirits in large quantities, but he never expected to use it on himself, hoping to take them down with him.
It was truly a tragic scene.
