Chapter 2722 Demonic Cultivator: My Banner Remains the Same (Part 18)
Rumors circulated that many students who ventured into the woods at night either mysteriously disappeared, fell into a coma the next day, or even turned into lifeless corpses.

The students who miraculously regained consciousness had no memory of what happened in the woods. Thus, the woods at night became a forbidden place, feared by everyone at the magic academy.

Xining walked briskly into the woods, glancing left and right with anticipation in her heart.

Ghosts, come out quickly! Your sister has come to pick you up. Your sister will take good care of you!

The magic academy was not large, even smaller than the west campus of the Taoist Academy. Before long, Xining arrived at the edge of the forest.

The moment you step inside, the surrounding scenery changes dramatically: the slender saplings suddenly transform into towering ancient trees that block out the sky, with gnarled vines entwined around the thick trunks, and damp moss hanging from the branches like green tassels.

The dry sand underfoot turned into damp, slippery mud, with centipedes half a foot long and other strangely shaped insects rustling past from time to time, making one's scalp tingle.

What's going on here? Could it be that there's a barrier here leading to other places, or an illusion created?

Whether it's a barrier, an illusion, or even the underworld, as long as it can provide "nourishment" for her banner, it doesn't matter.

But right now, apart from being a bit eerie and terrifying, we haven't seen a single ghost.

She walked for another five minutes, stumbling along the way, seeing many reptiles, toads, and lizards, but not a single thing that was usable.

Forget it, let's go!
Just as Xi Ning turned to leave, a shrill voice suddenly rang out: "Leave behind all your valuables!"

Hmm? Finally, something alive has arrived!

Xi Ning's eyes lit up, and she was secretly delighted. Great, it's a robbery?
To be honest, taking in good people isn't conducive to stabilizing the original owner's Dao heart after their return. Therefore, it's best to choose bad people; taking in bad people is acting on behalf of Heaven!

She excitedly opened her eyes wide and searched around, and the voice called out again, "Hey, where are you looking? Down, down!"

Her gaze fell downwards, and she saw a small creature, about a meter tall, standing in front of her: it was as thin as a stick, with dark green skin, a pair of pointed ears, and an ugly appearance.

It wore rough linen clothes, had a pointed face and a hooked nose, and a few crooked fangs protruded from its split mouth. Its bright red eyes gleamed eerily in the dim forest.

He was also holding a homemade wooden stick, which looked thick and large relative to his size.

"Hmm? What is that? Is it a person or a ghost?" Xining looked it up and down, wondering if the banner could take it in.

"You don't even know who I am?" The green-skinned little monster was so angry that its red eyes almost bulged out, and it roared in a shrill voice, "I am a goblin!"

"Goblins?" Xining was somewhat surprised, not expecting that such creatures existed in this world.

She feigned a sudden realization: "Ah, I've heard so much about you. What were you saying just now?"

It seems they said to leave all the valuables behind, but with that small frame, where did they get the guts to rob people on the road?

"Hand over all your gold coins, jewelry, and everything else! But..." The goblin looked her up and down, its gaze exactly the same as when she looked at it earlier, as if assessing the value of its prey. "Hmm, you're not bad looking. We can take you back to have our babies!"

Xining...

I think I've heard that goblins are all male, so they kidnap women to breed with, and all the offspring are goblins, and all of them are male.

She laughed: "You? You want me to have your baby?"

The goblin slung his large wooden club over his shoulder, tilted his head back, and said arrogantly, "Of course I'm not the only one."

It put two tiny green fingers in its mouth, and a sharp whistle rang out. Soon, in the dim woods, pairs of red eyes lit up, and more and more appeared… on the ground, in the trees, in mid-air…

Pairs of red eyes quickly surrounded Xining, forming an impenetrable barrier like an iron barrel.

Each pair of eyes was a goblin, standing on the ground or perched in the trees, their scarlet eyes fixed on her, filled with greed and evil.

The goblin in front of him grinned, laughing unrestrainedly, its mouth wide open to reveal a mouthful of sharp teeth.

It stretched out its long, toad-like tongue, licked its fangs, and saliva dripped down its teeth and the corners of its mouth, as if it were facing a delicious meal.

The sharp voice trembled slightly with excitement: "Woman, come with us obediently and give birth to a hundred children for us, and we will consider letting you go."

Xi Ning's lips twitched... A hundred? Even a sow doesn't give birth like that.

She slowly extended her index finger, pointed to the sky, and calmly uttered two words: "Fanlai!"

Suddenly, a banner, about 70 or 80 centimeters tall, appeared out of thin air and hovered beside her. The black banner cloth emitted a chilling silver light.

Needless to say, these scoundrels who robbed people on the road, stealing not only their money but also their virtue, are definitely worthy of being called righteous men.

"Collect!" Xining commanded. The banner immediately unleashed a powerful suction force, instantly sucking the goblin in front of it.

The surrounding goblins were terrified at the sight and tried to turn and run away, but it was too late.

The banner at this point was no longer the small banner that could only hold a few souls. After absorbing a certain number of souls, its suction power became extremely strong, and it also gained some new functions.

Xining gave the order to the banner: "All the spirits inside, heed my command! Capture all these goblins and throw them into the banner!"

"Ah...ah..." Accompanied by ghostly wails, ghostly spirits floated out of the banner and chased after the goblins who were terrified and trying to scatter and flee like a gust of wind.

The spirits within the banner had no feet, yet they moved far faster than goblins. They darted through the forest like the wind.
Each time a goblin is caught, it is thrown towards the banner, and the banner's powerful suction pulls all the goblins that are thrown in.

Then, a bizarre scene unfolded in the forest: goblins, some as thin as green firewood sticks and others as fat as green cabbages, were thrown out from all directions with a "whoosh," and before they even hit the ground, they screamed as they were sucked into the banner.

In just over a minute, the goblins in the forest were "slaughtered"... cough cough, all captured.

The spirits searched carefully twice more, and only after confirming that there was no longer any trace of living souls did they return to the banner.

Fortunately, there are already more than sixty souls in the banner, otherwise, with so many goblins, some would inevitably have escaped.

Such a weak thing, it doesn't even have the strength to struggle, yet it dares to come out and rob people of their money and virtue. It can only win by sheer numbers.

Xining looked at the banner with great satisfaction; it was a night of abundance.

A short while later, the banner suddenly glowed brightly and then "whoosh" grew to a height of one meter.

It's advanced! It's become the Hundred Soul Banner!
A faint golden light was emanating from the banner… She couldn’t be mistaken, could she? That was the golden light of merit!

This banner was even stained with the golden light of merit!

Jingxing's voice rang out at this moment: "Lord God, should we rescue the hostages who have been captured by the goblins?"

Of course I'll go! It's a good deed, and it might even increase my merits!
