In the formation
Ben Maojing then took out the tortoise shell, suppressed her temper, and said to Cao Bumu, "Stop shaking, I'm going to divine the direction. Follow behind me in a bit."
Kusabumi also remembered that Benmao's family was skilled in divination, not to mention that they were also good at feng shui. Even if they were not proficient in formations, it shouldn't be too difficult for them to get out.
Before Ben Maojing arrived, her family had already performed a divination for her. The divination indicated that her trip was an ominous sign, but there was also a glimmer of hope. She was gambling on that glimmer of hope.
For cultivators like them, wealth and honor are sought amidst danger. Even if they manage to complete the mission this time and return in peril, as long as they are alive, their families will do their utmost to save them, and future resources will be tilted towards them.
Moreover, she wasn't the only one who came this time; there were people waiting outside to meet her.
I just don't understand, what was that thing that suddenly appeared in mid-air?
The Hua family's Xuan Realm has been inquiring and recording for years, and they are very familiar with the magical artifacts of various sects.
Even after so many years, and no matter how much they innovate and refine, they could never create such a powerful weapon.
She had just noticed that Cao Bumu's eyes were full of greed as he looked at the cauldron. If she could make good use of it, Cao Bumu might be willing to do everything he could to help her.
Hua Xiangyun paused slightly. "So, it turns out that his ghost generals weren't destroyed, but just trapped in one place." Does that mean her lost magical artifacts can also be returned?
The Four Lotus Cauldrons immediately relayed a message: "Not seven yet, and one of them hasn't even slowly progressed to the Half-Ghost King stage..." That was certainly not bad news; the Yin energy beneath a Half-Ghost King... just thinking about it made the cauldrons drool...
What do you mean by that?
Ben Maojing said, "He is indeed compassionate. It seems he is either a Taoist or a Buddhist?"
As long as this big girl is subdued, she cannot make any demands on the owner of this cauldron.
"That's when he speaks in a wicked way, don't be so sarcastic."
That hateful thing must know its origins, causing you to lose eight ghost generals.
"They are just a few wicked cowards who, after putting on human skin, think they are human beings."
Silian Ding: No matter how little he comes, you can still get some food; he's a bottomless pit...
Hua Xiangyun only half understood what she heard. "He needs to know what bad things are being said."
It seems that the owner of this cauldron released these eight ghost generals, which was an extremely bad opportunity.
Looking back at the empty night sky, he wondered how he could make use of this thing.
“Master, if we push a little harder, we can get you to release the remaining ghost generals.” The Four Lotus Cauldron’s voice was filled with sympathy. “If you can regain your senses like we have, even if you continue to aid the wicked, you will still have some merit.”
“Young lady, please beg him to make you suffer. You want to be his puppets again.” One of the ghost generals, still writhing in pain, continued, “You’ve been ordered to attack him, but do you want to continue living such a humiliating life? Please, I beg him…”
Besides, do they even deserve to utter the words "hospitality"? Don't forget, we don't have any long-standing scores to settle between us yet.
Cao Bumu was very familiar with the Hua family's writing style. When the other party spoke so little, he really couldn't understand the meaning and could only look to Hua Xiangyun for help.
The Four Lotus Cauldrons immediately dried up, feeling humiliated. "These bald men have no skills. They can only recite some useful scriptures. How could we possibly forge a spirit like yours?"
"If you want our Yin energy, just say so. Why do you have to put yourself down like this?" Seeing that the other party was about to find the array's core, Ben Maojing threw two Heavenly Thunder Talismans outwards.
"Damn it!" the two men, covered in dust and dirt from the explosion, cursed in the middle of the formation without any regard for their image. "Benmao's family, they said the other side's formation was just powerful. Let's see what those are."
They knew what this cauldron was made of, which was why it could trap so many ghost generals at the same time.
It was unexpected that those two people, despite being trapped in their own predicament, were able to calculate their location step by step using the tortoise shell in their hands.
Ben Maojing could only have the Four Lotus Cauldrons take us inside first, so that the other side could continue to issue commands.
Cao Bumu's heart skipped a beat. He had lost contact with me, and the eight evil spirits had also lost their connection.
"How can you expect guests to be treated properly? Are they guests? Did you invite them?"
If we manage to get out of there, we might still have to fight again.
As the two slowly moved towards the direction divined, Ben Maojing seized a moment to ask, "Senior Brother Caobu, what was that thing in the air just now? I've never seen it in our records. Does your family have any records of it?"
Upon seeing this, Tang Zhixing immediately leaped ten meters away and took precautions.
Cao Tangzhi said, "You also have no records, but that thing looks like it has no origin."
The eight demon generals suddenly turned ferocious, their evil faces contorted as they suppressed their rage.
Normally, we wouldn't have been able to dodge, but the other side was principled in martial arts and attacked us stealthily.
I know all too well what abilities my ghost generals possess. If that great cultivator had fewer defensive artifacts, he would have been captured by my eight ghost generals long ago.
"You guessed it was like that. After all, ghost generals are so hard to deal with. If they were trapped in one place, they would have broken out long ago."
The other two ghost generals also let out wails at the same time, pleading intermittently.
Just as Ben Maojing was about to make things difficult for us, she suddenly contacted Si Lian Ding again, asking, "Does he think there are too few ghost generals like us?"
Thinking that there was no hope of getting the tenth ghost general, I also realized that I had already lost eight of them.
"Now let's think about how to get out of there as slowly as possible, otherwise, even if the other side throws a few more bolts of lightning, the two of us can withstand it."
"You mean, Da You inside, if you don't have the ability, let's have a real fight. Using such despicable means to resort to underhanded tactics is just how the Hua family treats its guests."
However, it was clear that the Four Lotus Cauldrons had lost their effect in absorbing the Yin energy beneath us. The eight ghost generals were able to suppress the enemy's commands to the best of their ability, but the energy they were experiencing was minimal.
"That's a talisman! Their spell is very powerful, how could it be used against someone else?"
Upon hearing this, Ben Maojing shook her head with a tsk-tsk sound, "It seems they know you too well. When guests come, there's no bad wine; when enemies come, there's no hunting rifle."
Hua Xiangyun took out a jade pendant to protect her heart meridian. "Don't talk to you about that. Our small families practice Yin-Yang techniques. Do you think we can withstand that heavenly lightning?"
If I could have possessed that cauldron in the sky just now, why would I need to refine the Ghost King? I should have taken all the magical artifacts in the sky into my possession.
After watching the eight demon generals disappear from sight, Ben Maojing then turned her gaze back to the two people in the formation.
It's not strange at all that the connection between you and the Ghost General still exists faintly, only now it can still command us.
