The vengeful spirits and evil ghosts all crashed into the barrier formed by the red line. After countless collisions, the barrier was obviously no longer strong.
Qiao Ruoxi frowned: "Everyone let go and step back!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment: "If we let go, what will happen if they rush out?"
"I'll get out sooner or later. I have another way, provided you let go first."
Since there is no way to control these resentful spirits and evil spirits within the barrier, there is only one way.
Feed the soul with your body, and die together.
She came to this world by accident, so this might be an opportunity for her to go back.
Maybe after her death she will be able to return to the past world and see her master and the little emperor again.
Seeing Qiao Ruoxi's confidence, everyone believed her and obediently let go and stepped back.
It was at this moment that Qiao Ruoxi stepped into the red line.
The pure spiritual power was like a sweet rain from heaven. The vengeful spirits and evil ghosts suddenly went crazy, and pounced on Qiao Ruoxi with greedy eyes.
When the people outside the red line realized that something was wrong and wanted to move forward again, they could no longer cross the red barrier.
Qiao Ruoxi actually locked herself up with those ghosts!
"Ruoxi, come back!" Pei Yaozhou knocked on the barrier with his fist.
Qiao Ruoxi turned around, moved her red lips slightly, and said two words.
Pei Yaozhou's body trembled, and panic and helplessness appeared in his eyes for the first time.
Inside the barrier.
Qiao Ruoxi looked at those crazy vengeful spirits and evil ghosts. Even though she was protected by a faint light, they were quickly dispelled.
She took advantage of this time to draw a detonating spell on her clothes with her own blood.
This talisman took up all her strength, and then she sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting for the vengeful spirits and evil ghosts to gradually surround her.
The vision was obscured little by little.
Suddenly, there was a loud "boom" and everything around turned into a dazzling white, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
At the critical moment of life and death, Qiao Ruoxi vaguely heard Pei Yaozhou calling her name for the last time. She suddenly felt a blockage in her throat and a sense of emptiness in her heart.
When she opened her eyes again, everything around her was pitch black. No matter how she moved forward, she seemed to be standing still.
Is she dead, or has she gone to another time and space?
After walking for an unknown amount of time, she finally saw a beam of light and ran over quickly.
Outside the beam of light was a Taoist temple. She recognized it at a glance. It was her master's Yuanshan Taoist Temple, where she had lived for many years.
The master was sitting on the futon, looking at her with a smile: "Girl, here you come!"
Qiao Ruoxi felt a lump in her throat and ran over, kneeling beside her master like she did when she was a child.
As soon as she opened her mouth, she started crying: "Master, is this really you? Am I back to the real world?"
The old Taoist patted Qiao Ruoxi's head lovingly: "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Whether it's your past life or your present life, it's the real world!"
"So, am I back now?" Qiao Ruoxi looked around.
Normally, one could see fellow disciples busy or idle everywhere in this hall, but today it was unusually quiet.
"You guessed right, this is an illusion. I called you here because I have something to tell you." The old Taoist stroked his long beard.
Qiao Ruoxi knelt upright in front of the old Taoist priest, just like when she was a child, and listened to his teachings obediently and seriously.
The old Taoist suddenly stretched out his thumb and index finger and flicked Qiao Ruoxi's forehead: "Stinky girl, are those bad guys worth your life?"
Qiao Ruoxi touched her burning forehead, stunned. "But didn't you say that those of us who practice Taoism should take the lives of the people of the world as our responsibility? I don't have enough spiritual power in that world, so this is the only way..."
The old Taoist priest stood up and pointed at Qiao Ruoxi, saying seriously, "Girl, listen to me, your life is more important than anyone or anything else. You are not allowed to do this kind of thing again in the future. Do you understand me?"
Qiao Ruoxi nodded at first, then smiled innocently: "Master, you really care about me!"
"Stretch out your hand." The old Taoist coughed lightly.
Although Qiao Ruoxi was confused, she still did as she was told.
The old Taoist used his fingertips to draw a talisman on Qiao Ruoxi's palm. A dark light appeared for a moment and then disappeared.
"This is?"
"This is a lightning-attracting talisman. It can help you attract the thunder of heaven. With it, you don't have to worry about any ghosts or monsters anymore."
Qiao Ruoxi opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Thunder of Heaven, Master, are you Heaven?"
The master has an immortal appearance and profound spiritual power, and has benefited countless people. She would not be surprised if someone said that the master is the way of heaven.
The old Taoist glanced at Qiao Ruoxi and said, "Don't talk nonsense. How can I be the Heavenly Dao with my talent? Okay, go back quickly. There are people waiting for you over there. I can't stand their noise anymore."
"But isn't this Heavenly Thunder something that can only be controlled by Heaven?" Qiao Ruoxi was really confused.
"Now that you can control it, why don't you say that you are the way of heaven?" The old Taoist retorted righteously.
Qiao Ruoxi choked. Her master's tongue was still as sharp as ever!
The old Taoist raised the whisk in his hand, and Qiao Ruoxi flew into the air. Then the surrounding scene changed rapidly, and finally only black was left.
And the master's final instructions.
"This is the only thing Master can do for you. If you encounter something that even the Heavenly Thunder can't handle, then don't even think about anything else and just run!"
When Qiao Ruoxi opened her eyes again, she saw that the group of vengeful spirits and evil ghosts were only an inch away from her.
She stretched out her palm, and the lightning spell emitted a faint light.
Qiao Ruoxi was delighted. It was not a dream. Her master was really helping her!
But Master said this was the last time he would help her, so why...
Before Qiao Ruoxi could think any further, the vengeful spirit and the evil ghost had already climbed up.
At the critical moment, Qiao Ruoxi chanted the thunder-inducing spell while turning his palms outwards.
There was a loud thunder and a bolt of lightning struck from the sky.
Three thunderbolts struck, and all the evil spirits were shattered to pieces.
The remaining vengeful spirits knelt down and begged for mercy: "Please give us a chance to reform, we are willing to turn from evil to good!"
Qiao Ruoxi took out the talisman paper and pasted the mantra of rebirth on each vengeful spirit.
Make sure they go to the afterlife immediately and have no chance to harm others before letting them go.
The rest is left to the King of Hell to judge her life's merits and demerits. Whether she goes to hell or is thrown into the six realms of reincarnation has nothing to do with her.
After dealing with all this, Qiao Ruoxi lifted the barrier, and ordinary people could no longer see the soul.
When she walked out of the red line barrier, she saw everyone staring at her with wide eyes and open mouths.
Qiao Ruoxi: ...
Um, didn't she scare them?
