Chapter 311
The following process was unremarkable. The female swindler simply tried every means to deceive them into going to Yehuang Valley, while Cheng Hui and the others just went with the flow. In short, the group arrived at Yehuang Valley smoothly.
The female swindler had no idea that the two people in front of her were monks, so she naturally had no doubts. However, the monk who was following her was nervous when he saw the female swindler's poor acting skills.
What he prepared for Cheng Hui and the others was not just this female liar. To be more precise, this female liar was just an appetizer. But he didn't expect that the guests were already full before his main course was served.
The female con artist didn't know, but he didn't know? These two were genuine Jindan cultivators, so how could they not see through the female con artist's tactics...
Could it be that these two people are so skilled and bold that they want to directly find out the mastermind behind the scam?
The stalker felt that this was the only valid reason.
If that's really the case... the stalker sneered, then these two people are simply overthinking it.
Even if they discovered that the mastermind behind this was the Ghost Lord, so what? In the face of absolute strength, any calculations in their hearts would be in vain.
The tracker had absolute confidence in the Ghost Lord's strength. He sneered at Cheng Hui and the other two as they followed the female swindler into the Night Valley in a nonchalant manner, and felt relieved.
Afterwards, he entered the valley from the path on the other side to report to the Ghost Lord.
Soon, Cheng Hui and the other person came to the depths of Yehuang Valley under the deliberate guidance of the female swindler. Her eyes flickered, and she was obviously planning to find an excuse to leave.
Cheng Hui didn't intend to cause trouble for her. Her existence was irrelevant. Even if she was not there, there would be other people who fell into the trap because of them.
pity……
The previous second, the woman was still laughing and joking with them, and the next second, she was suddenly split in half, blood and flesh splattered, and the expression on her face was forever frozen in confusion.
bite--
Lin Qingyang's flying sword shattered a large knife that was chopped towards him. The evil ghost holding the large knife roared ferociously and pounced towards Cheng Hui.
Cheng Hui was stunned for a moment. What did that mean? Were we going to die together?
Of course he would not let the evil ghost pounce on him, so he quickly dodged it, but accidentally fell to the ground.
Lin Qingyang looked at him in surprise, then looked away.
It is impossible to fall down. If a Jindan cultivator falls down even if he dodges, then his cultivation of Jindan will be in vain.
He noticed that when Cheng Hui fell, he seemed to have stuffed something into the grass. Combined with their previous plan, it was not difficult to guess what was inside.
Lin Qingyang understood and cooperated silently.
The entire Yehuang Valley was surrounded by gusts of dark wind, and a large number of ghosts emerged from the ground.
The cultivation levels of these ghosts varied, the highest was at the Golden Core stage, and the lowest was at the Foundation Establishment stage. They swarmed over and tried to tear Cheng Hui and the others to pieces with their sharp claws.
Cheng Hui and the other two seemed to be quite frightened. They were trying to do whatever they wanted and looked very embarrassed.
But if you observe carefully, you will find that both sides have their own calculations. While those ghosts, big and small, are surging wildly, they are also heading to several fixed locations without leaving any trace.
Cheng Hui's actions were quite similar to theirs, and he also stopped at several specific places for a while.
The only difference is probably that these ghosts do not know how to observe, except for completing their assigned tasks. On the other hand, Cheng Hui, due to his in-depth research on formations, is very familiar with various formations and can keenly perceive the movements of ghosts.
"Wow, they are going to set up the Ten Directions Ghost Array. I didn't expect that this ghost lord is actually a fellow cultivator." He complained to Lin Qingyang in a low voice.
Lin Qingyang glared at him speechlessly and said, "You're acting, focus on it!"
Cheng Hui smiled naively, and then disguised himself to be even more clumsy.
As for Cheng Hui's defense at this time, he could just stand there and let the ghost attack him. There would be no danger and his defense would basically not be broken.
Ghosts have a natural advantage when facing humans, but when their enemies become zombies, which are also evil creatures, their strength will be greatly reduced.
At the very least, zombies don’t have to worry about being invaded by negative energy, and the poisonous claws of ghosts can hardly cause them any harm.
Cheng Hui was as steady as an old dog: This wave is stable.
The ghost lord's greatest trick was restrained by me. Even if he had other tricks, as long as they relied on ghosts, they would be naturally defeated by me. Then would there be any problem?
Seeing that the ghost lord has to use women's vital yin from time to time to alleviate the erosion of yin energy, you know that most of his abilities are in this, otherwise his Nascent Soul cultivation would not be so seriously eroded by yin energy.
As for the formation… you're kidding! In front of a little master of formations like him, a bunch of rigid, inflexible ghosts who can only follow orders still want to successfully set up a formation? I think you're looking down on me, Fat Tiger!
While dodging the attacks of the ghosts, Cheng Hui was setting up a formation for himself while secretly tinkering with the enemy's formation nodes.
Direct destruction is not an option, as it would expose them too easily. Their goal is to kill the ghost lord, not these ghosts.
Don't be fooled by the fact that these ghosts look intimidating because of their large numbers. In fact, as long as you are ruthless and spend a little time to make them, they can be regarded as consumables.
Killing these ghosts would have minimal impact on the Ghost Lord. No... To be precise, the impression at the time might be huge, after all, the consequences of backlash must be considered. But as long as the Ghost Lord recovers, he can easily get another batch.
In this way, Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang acted very seriously, showing that they were not very strong and that they relied entirely on pills to reach their current level of cultivation.
This was also the illusion Lin Qingyang had deliberately created for the Ghost Lord. Their combat performance was now slowly combining with their previous impressions, and unless the Ghost Lord discovered something they hadn't noticed, he wouldn't easily see through it.
And the Ghost Lord did not disappoint them, they were indeed fooled.
He looked at Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang, who were struggling to fend off the ghost below, with a look of contempt. "I thought they were nothing else, but they turned out to be two losers relying on medicinal pills. Humph, to be able to push two losers to the Golden Core Perfection, it must be a rare and good medicine, perhaps some spiritual creature that has become a spirit... Tsk tsk, what a pity, if such a good thing fell into my hands..."
The ghost master shook his head regretfully.
Even though he seems to have absolute power in Beizhou City, in fact, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, he can only live in this remote city. This shows that he is nothing in the eyes of those big sects.
The Ghost Lord had a very hard time cultivating from a casual cultivator to his current level of cultivation. Unfortunately, in order to strengthen himself, he took the wrong path. Even though he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, this was the end of his life and his future was basically cut off.
The more this happened, the more jealous he became of those young disciples who had amazing cultivation at a young age. He was even more jealous of people like Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang who could cultivate to the perfection of the Golden Elixir with the help of elixirs.
He couldn't help but think that if he had been able to obtain those elixirs in the first place, he would never have gone astray.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The Ghost Lord disliked Cheng Hui and the others not only because they might have an affair with Ou Lingruo, but more because of their wealth.
He couldn't help but think that if their family could feed the two of them to the Golden Elixir stage with the help of elixirs, would there be better elixirs in their Qiankun bags?
The ghost master was moved.
His cultivation has been stagnant for many years, and the erosion of Yin Qi is getting worse day by day. If there is a chance to completely solve the problem of Yin Qi, perhaps... he can make further progress?
It was obviously inappropriate to leave this kind of thing to his subordinates, so the Ghost Lord decided to go into battle himself, preferably to capture the two guys alive and take a good look at them using the soul-searching spell.
He merged silently into the ghosts like a ghostly shadow.
Because of the evil magic he practiced, he looked almost exactly like a ghost while hiding his own aura. This was also the key to his confidence in entering a group of ghosts without being attacked.
Unfortunately... he didn't know that as soon as he appeared, he was targeted by Lin Qingyang.
It’s not that his disguise was not good enough, it’s simply that Lin Qingyang had left a mark on him during the previous meal.
In order to resurrect Cheng Hui, he searched through countless sects' treasure houses and learned countless strange secret techniques. Although those secret techniques could not bring the dead back to life, they had many miraculous effects.
This time, even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not detect the tracking mark. It was precisely this deliberate and unintentional move that made Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang confident that they could capture the Ghost Lord in one go.
Absolutely!
After entering the ghost group, the Ghost Lord immediately used his ultimate move and activated the Ten Directions Yin Ghost God.
In an instant, the entire Yehuang Valley was filled with howling winds and ghostly shadows. Countless ghosts grew larger, their expressions became more crazy, and their strength increased by three points.
The ghost master quietly approached Cheng Hui, who feigned oblivion, desperately trying to fend off a large ghost. Lin Qingyang was still some distance away, relying only on his long sword to fend for himself, seemingly about to be swallowed by the tide of ghosts.
The ghost master smiled grimly, his right hand suddenly swelled, and five drops of smelly black liquid dripped from his five fingers.
He shot these five drops of liquid into the nameless ghost nearby. The nameless ghost suddenly became more powerful and pounced towards Cheng Hui while howling.
Cheng Hui was caught off guard and was surrounded. He was almost hit. When he was struggling to resist, the ghost master suddenly appeared from one of the ghosts. His sharp claws stabbed Cheng Hui's empty chest fiercely, and he was just a little bit away from piercing his heart.
A smile appeared on the Ghost Lord's face. He seemed to have already seen the scene of himself finding a large number of pills in this kid's Qiankun bag.
But the next second, something strange happened. The formation that he originally controlled suddenly changed hands. Cheng Hui was clearly right in front of him, but at this moment, there was a familiar ghost between them.
puff--
The ghost's chest was pierced by the ghost master.
The ghost master was still surprised at why this ghost suddenly appeared, but the injured ghost didn't have so many thoughts.
He will kill anyone who hurts him, it's that simple!
So the ghosts fought back, and the ghost master who was the first to suffer was immediately trapped.
"No!"
The Ghost Lord suddenly discovered that he had lost control of all the ghosts. Although these ghosts could not be completely controlled before, at least he could make them cooperate with his attacks as much as possible.
But at this time, these ghosts were completely disobedient. Not only did they refuse to follow orders, they even began to retaliate against their master.
"Are you surprised? Are you unexpected? Are you happy?" Cheng Hui suddenly said something jokingly.
The Ghost Lord naturally didn't know about this, but Cheng Hui's gloating expression was too obvious, and the fact that the other party easily took control of the formation also meant that he had anticipated his appearance.
"You knew it a long time ago!" the Ghost Lord said in shock and anger.
"How fresh! Such an uncreative performance. It would be strange if we were fooled..." Cheng Hui retorted bluntly.
Ghost Lord: ...
