Chapter 95: Before the complete outbreak
The poison spirit wrapped around the ghost king, moving very quickly, and in an instant it covered the ghost king’s entire body. The ghost king took on an unusual, humorous green color, and then black smoke billowed out of it.
Cheng Xin Ge seemed to disdain to look at the poison spirit he released, which brought such power. He sprinkled the powder on Wu Lao Gui while muttering, “This is a kind of powder that nourishes the spirit. People cannot swallow it directly because it is too ‘yin’. If they swallow it, it is like swallowing poison, and they will die of cold. It is really a waste. These medicines are very precious.”
Wu Laogui’s expression was indeed much more relaxed, but Cheng Xin’s tone of regret still made Wu Laogui can’t help but look at Cheng Xin with a “sorrowful” look. Cheng Xin didn’t bother to respond to it, and while saying it was a pity, he still sprinkled a large amount of medicine powder on Wu Laogui’s spirit body.
Then, Brother Chengxin walked towards Xiao Xi and Xiao Mao, squatted down to take a look at their condition, and said to me, who had transformed into a tiger, with a wry smile: “I don’t have any elixirs here that nourish demons, but some pills that are effective on humans can also be given to them to take. They won’t be completely restored, but they won’t continue to weaken.”
He then took out a bottle and poured out the yellow pills inside. Wasn’t this a pill I had taken before? I still remember that it was a gift from Uncle Chen when we first met. It contained a hundred-year-old ginseng root. Brother Chengxin was really generous to Xiao Xi and Xiao Mao. After all, the bodies of demons are stronger than those of humans, and they will not be unable to receive nourishment. In this case, it is also appropriate to supplement their blood and qi. Besides, didn’t Brother Chengxin say that ginseng has the effect of nourishing the soul when it reaches a certain age?
After helping Xiao Xi and Xiao Mao swallow the pills, Brother Cheng Xin picked them up and walked backwards. My body was still practicing the art of the middle path over there, so it was good to be divided into two. I inexplicably achieved a state of complete immunity.
“Don’t stop it, it’s useless to stop it. This big guy will be exhausted, but he won’t die. By then, if you don’t help, you won’t be able to stop it.” Cheng Xin Ge said to me as he walked.
I also knew that if we couldn’t completely kill it, it would be useless to block it in front of us. Once it had carried it and completely fused with it, it would eventually come back to kill us. Although the poison soul would consume part of its combat effectiveness, it was not yet a trump card that we could resist.
“But, is this the only power that the things left behind by the Grandmaster have?” I also communicated with Brother Chengxin. In my imagination, the poisonous soul showed such great power from the very beginning. Even if it didn’t kill the ghost king, it should have made him disabled, right?
“I didn’t plan to use these three poison souls, I just brought them along in case of an emergency. I didn’t bring along the medicine that could make the poison souls even more powerful. Besides, don’t over-glorify the Grandmaster. After all, it wasn’t the Grandmaster who came in person, it was just something he left behind. It’s already pretty good to have such power. After all, this guy used the power of the elites of the two schools to complete the great technique. Besides, do you think they don’t have any backup? I am very clear-headed and I can see very clearly. I am just trying to buy you some time. You are from the Mountain Branch of the Old Li lineage. If you only have this one trump card, don’t even think about protecting Ruoxue in the tomb. As he spoke, Chengxin brother adjusted his glasses. He is truly a dark and sinister man, and his words are full of poison, but not foul language.
I couldn’t help but glare at Chengxin with my tiger eyes. Chengxin immediately looked at me warily and said, “Don’t you be a tiger now, I’m afraid of you.”
After all, Chengxin’s poisonous soul has given us a little breathing room. At this moment, I can calmly and unhurriedly perform the art of the middle path. After a little contemplation, I felt that the pill I just swallowed had taken effect, and my spiritual awareness had not decreased much because of my split soul.
After a brief moment, I and Cheng Xin Ge began to pay attention to the situation over there. It was clear that the poisonous soul that Cheng Xin Ge had suddenly summoned had caused great trouble over there.
The poison soul corrodes the spirit body, and naturally it also harms the ghosts that make up the King of Ghosts. There were groans coming from there, especially from Weng Li, who vomited several mouthfuls of blood. At this time, his spiteful gaze was not directed at me, but at Brother Chengxin.
However, since we had already given up our place and were preparing for a major battle, those who had stayed on the path also all rushed to this valley to confront us.
But they could only stand off, unable to make any sudden moves. On the one hand, they still had to use their soul power to support Weng Li, and on the other hand, the ghost heads that had gathered their power at this moment were temporarily unable to fight, and their five element magic was restricted. They really didn’t have many other means. If they used the human wave tactic, not to mention that Cheng Xin would still use poison, even one Wu Laogui would be enough to make them drink a pot.
Here, the only thing that can be used is soul magic. The only thing that can continue to be powerful is not magic, because magic is after all borrowed power, and in the end it is necessary to use other magic to exert its power, so it can only be the magic of inviting gods!
However, even if the elite are here, how many of them can perform the spirit summoning technique when they are supporting others with their spiritual power?
The ghost king is still entangled with the poisoned soul. I can see that it is using oppressive power to force the poisoned soul, which is losing more and more energy, out of the body. It then concentrates the poison on a part of the body, sacrificing the ghost king to completely clean the poison, which has the least impact on it.
The will of the King of Ghosts is the will of Weng Li. At this moment, it is working hard. And it seems that two old men have stood out from the crowd. They should be the top management of the two sides. They are “whispering” as if they are discussing something!
Since I was in the state of a stupid tiger at the moment, my five senses were extremely sharp, so I wasn’t able to hear all of their words clearly, but I was able to understand a few words here and there.
“Well, since… you trust me… suspend some of your spiritual power… and summon the gods…”
“Weng Li, should be able to support… fusion…”
“If… special circumstances… the younger generation suppresses…”
These few short sentences are all I can piece together about their conversation. If I guess correctly, they should be asking some people to use the spirit summoning technique to summon the power of the gods, and use the power of the gods to solve this crisis through the fusion of Weng Li and the King of Ghosts. Weng Li should have such a secret method, right? This way, the damage to both sides is about the same, and it can also destroy several of our annoying “undead cockroaches” in one fell swoop.
But if they can talk like this, they naturally won’t avoid us. This is a conspiracy. After all, the advantage is still in their hands. In the end, if they insist on letting the King of Ghosts expel the poison himself, it is also feasible. They are just being extremely careful, afraid that I will have any more trump cards.
I guess this caution comes from the Xiao family. After all, the union of souls has shaken the core members of their family, and they must have communicated the news.
In the crowd, I saw Xiao Chengqian, and I also saw Lin Chen. Only these two people had different looks. Xiao Chengqian looked at me with some worry, while Lin Chen was shocked, and there was not much hostility in it.
Then, the people and horses over there began to move. They were too concerned about this magical immortal tomb, so they were bound by their actions, and we naturally dared not move lightly in the face of their actions. After all, we were weak.
Therefore, we could only watch helplessly as some of Xiao Chengqian’s followers stopped their spiritual support, swallowed a few pills, and began to perform the spirit summoning technique. Moreover, not only that, after all, I didn’t hear the whole conversation, the evil cult disciples also took action. They all began to perform secret techniques, which should be to enhance their own ghost head abilities, and to enhance the abilities of individual ghost heads to the next level, naturally the abilities of the ghost head king were also enhanced to the next level.
Weng Li looked at us with hatred and shouted, “You nasty young people, do you think you deserve this? If it weren’t for the fact that we need to open the tomb in one fell swoop, I would have crushed you to death even if I had to fight the King of Ghosts.”
I didn’t say anything, just looked at him coldly. I knew in my heart that they really wanted to use the powerful destructive power of the King of Ghosts to open the tomb in one fell swoop. At the same time, wasn’t the King of Ghosts temporarily incapacitated? Weng Li was doing it for face. What was there to argue about?
Chengxin was not so kind. Looking at Weng Li, he habitually pushed his eyes, put his hands in his pockets, and said to Weng Li in an elegant tone, “Wouldn’t you die if you didn’t brag?”
‘Po’,, it was such a simple sentence, but Weng Li was so angry by Cheng Xin that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
But at the same time, during the time we were facing off, the exorcism over there was already halfway done, and the evil cultivators had already completed the secret art of enhancing the ability of the ghost king. The ghost king suddenly let out a long howl, and with a ‘peng’ sound, one of the poisonous souls wrapped around it was actually forced to burst, and then the poison spread out, but for the first time, it was suppressed in time.
Chengxin Brother narrowed his eyes, and I suddenly became serious. I had communicated with the power of the master!
