Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 590 Breaking the Formation! Killing!
In an instant, all the evil spirits that had been giving the Rat a headache during its hunt within the Five Gods Seal were absorbed by the Earth Lord Seal, leaving not a single one behind.

Shang Lu quickly put away the soul banner and at the same time hid the Earth God's Seal on the back of his hand.

Fortunately, they acted quickly, otherwise they would have been exposed. Gongshu Ling rushed up immediately, his mask gleaming with a probing light: "What is the origin of your Soul Banner? How can it ignore the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation and directly capture the Qi-Eating Evil Spirit that it has imprisoned and protected?"

"It's the soul banner I seized from Chu Wu. I just tried it out on a whim, and I didn't expect it to succeed... Maybe it was just good luck?"

Pokeweed's explanation was vague.

Although Cheng Ren did not use his Listening Ear on him, he still did not dare to say anything.

Shang Lu understands the principle that too much talk leads to mistakes.

Gongshu Ling had some doubts. Although the sorcerers of Chu were indeed skilled at controlling corpses and ghosts, ordinary soul banners could not possibly capture the evil spirits that devour qi directly from the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation, let alone capture so many at once.

Fortunately, she also knew that this was not the time to study the Soul Banner, so she didn't ask Shang Lu to take out the Soul Banner for her to see. She simply asked, "When did you acquire a new Soul Banner?"

When Shang Lu first arrived at Xingshan Military Town, she took out the spoils of war and asked Gongshu Ling to help repair them. Among them were soul banners, but they were all very ordinary, and she did not find anything special about them.

Shang Lu said vaguely, "It's the Soul Banner from before. I don't know why it has such abilities."

"Oh?" Gongshu Ling was quite surprised. "Could it be that I misjudged him before?"

She didn't ask any further questions, only saying, "When we get back, take out that soul banner and let me take a look at it again."

"No problem," Shang Lu readily agreed.

He wasn't afraid of Gongshu Ling's research, since he wasn't following the path of artifact shamanism. He would know nothing when asked, and Gongshu Ling would have nothing to say.

Although Zishu Xunshou was also curious about the origin of Shang Lu's Soul Banner, he had more important things to do at the moment.

Once he confirmed that the Qi-Eating Evil Spirits were no longer in the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Without the Qi-Eating Evil Spirits, this formation will be much easier to break!"

He then made arrangements: "Lu Yang, you cultivate the Sword Witch Path, and your metal energy is unstoppable. You are responsible for destroying the Green Wood Liver Pillar... Wait for my orders before you act, and do not act rashly!"

"understand!"

Lu Yang clasped his hands in acceptance and strode to stand beside the liver-shaped blue stone pillar.

Although he did not open the sword box, he began to activate the Golden Geng Sword Qi within his body.

In an instant, sharp sword energy surged from his body, making him appear as a "sword man," waiting for the Rat's order to destroy the responsible stone pillar using the principle of "metal overcoming wood."

The Rat, on his hunting expedition, spoke rapidly and continued to assign generals:

"Shang Lu, you have the Mountain God Nuo Mask. You are responsible for using earth energy to destroy the Black Water Kidney Pillar!"

"Gongshu Ling, your witch armor can ignite secret fires, and the platinum lung pillar is at your disposal."

"Xu Zhen, you also practice witchcraft and sorcery, and your body is full of water energy. I will entrust the Crimson Fire Heart Pillar to you."

Finally, the Rat looked at Uncle Huai, but this time it didn't speak in a commanding tone. Instead, it clasped its hands in a polite manner and said, "Brother Huai, thank you for using your pure wood energy to defeat the Yellow Earth Spleen Pillar."

Although Uncle Huai is a servant of Shang Lu, he is not a member of the Guardian Witches. Zi Shu can only ask him for help during the hunt, not order him to act.

Uncle Huai was aware of his own position and did not immediately agree, but instead looked at Shang Lu.

"I'll listen to the inspector," Shang Lu said.

Uncle Huai then clasped his hands in greeting to the Rat Patrol and walked to the Spleen Earth Stone Pillar, where he began to activate the Wood Qi.

"Cheng Ren, you and Pan Yin Tong are responsible for destroying the array's core."

The Rat, on patrol, raised its hand and pointed towards the center of the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation.

There were two altars there, one black and one white, one yin and one yang.

The two altars are intertwined, forming a shape where each is intertwined with the other.

If viewed from above, they resemble a yin-yang symbol.

On the altar, offerings were also placed, each with its own distinct characteristics.

On the balcony, there were piles of grotesque, unseeing heads, covered in filth and blood, indicating they had been dead for at least several days. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be eunuchs and imperial guards from the palace.

Their bodies had vanished without a trace, and it was unknown whether they had been devoured by the King of Chu.

On the altar in the underworld, human hearts are enshrined.

Strangely, these people's hearts were still beating; they were still alive.

People could even sense the witch-like aura and vitality emanating from these people's hearts... most of them were officials arrested by the Black-Clad Guards.

These people had cultivated themselves diligently for many years, finally achieving extraordinary skills and status, but unexpectedly, they ended up becoming offerings on this altar.

After Cheng Ren and the Yin Child nodded in unison, the Rat Hunting Officer lowered his hand and continued to instruct, "You two will each be responsible for one altar. You must use yang energy to activate the yin altar and use yin energy to destroy the yang altar. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

The two nodded and accepted the order in unison.

The Rat, during his patrol, said no more, letting them decide who would destroy the altar, while he chanted incantations and focused all his energy on the witchcraft.

The eyes of the Rat on patrol transformed into vertical pupils, fixed on the Five Gods Seizing the Yuan Formation, grasping the changes in the Qi within the witch formation.

A few breaths later, he roared and punched the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation.

A surge of sorcery energy erupted from his body, transforming into a giant gray rat of light and shadow. With this punch, it hurtled straight towards the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation, baring its sharp claws and fangs.

"Om-"

The Five Gods Seizing the Yuan Formation sensed the danger and immediately unleashed a burst of five-colored light.

However, this five-colored radiance lacked any celestial aura, instead exuding darkness and eeriness. It even emanated a strong, putrid stench of decaying internal organs.

This is the light of the five signs of decay!

"boom--"

The witch's aura from the Rat's hunt collided heavily with the weakening light protecting the Five Gods' Yuan-Seizing Array.

The protective aura of decay is extremely corrosive, constantly eroding the witch energy of the Rat's patrol.

But what the Rat is best at hunting is finding weaknesses and vulnerabilities.

His punch struck the weakest point of the protective array's weakening light. Not only did it fail to dissipate much of his witch energy, but it also tore a hole in it in an instant.

Almost simultaneously, the Rat on patrol shouted, "Array core!"

Cheng Ren popped a scarlet pill into his mouth, and the witch power around him surged as if boiling!
He summoned a bone artifact shaped like a xiezhi horn, which, combined with his sorcery, transformed into a blazing ray of sunlight that shot straight towards the Yin altar!

The Judge of Yin tore off the blood-stained blindfold, and from his dark eye sockets shot out a chilling, bone-chilling aura of Yin and death, which blasted towards the Yang Altar!
"boom--"

Two streams of witchcraft energy, one yin and one yang, struck the yang altar and the yin altar respectively.

The protective array's waning light was tightly restrained by the Rat's patrol and was unable to protect the two altars. Furthermore, their own protective power was no match for the bombardment from Cheng Ren and the Judge of Yin Children.

In an instant, the two altars crumbled into rubble.

As for the human heads and human hearts enshrined on it, they were all completely annihilated.

Once the core of the formation was broken, the five-colored light immediately dimmed.

The Rat on patrol immediately shouted, "Attack! Urge the pillar!"

Shang Lu, Lü Yang, Gongshu Ling, and the other three had been waiting for this order without the slightest hesitation, and urged each other to work together.

Shang Lu threw a punch, and the phantom of the Mountain Ghost appeared behind him, unleashing a thick earthy aura that shattered the Black Water Kidney Pillar!
Lu Yang formed a sword incantation, and a blinding Geng metal sword aura roared out, shredding the green wood liver pillar into dust!

Two blazing flames erupted from the witch armor on Gongshu Ling's chest, burning the platinum lung pillar!
Xu Zhen formed a hand seal, drawing upon the dark blue water vapor, which seemed to surge back like the Milky Way, engulfing the Crimson Fire Heart Pillar!

Uncle Huai let out a low roar, revealing his true form as a wood demon. His powerful wood energy, like a blue dragon, burst the yellow earth pillar from the inside out!
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Five muffled thunderous explosions occurred almost simultaneously! The five sinister stone pillars, symbolizing the five internal organs, shattered at the same time!

The protective array's fading light completely dissipated. The eerie bone chains that had pierced through the Grand Master, the Clerk, the Barbarian High Priest, and the Crimson Moon Witch Lord shattered inch by inch and turned to ashes the moment the Five Gods' Yuan-Seizing Array was forcibly broken.

The four people hanging in mid-air immediately began to fall.

The Rat Hunting Spirit reacted extremely quickly, leaping forward in a flash. While catching the Grand Master and the Clerk, it also released a burst of witchcraft energy to support the Barbarian High Priest.

Of the four, only the Crimson Moon Witch Lord was thrown to the ground.

It even made a "splat" sound, splattering blood and flying bits of flesh everywhere.

Everyone was stunned.

Even if the Crimson Moon Witch Lord, a dignified third-grade Divine Realm expert, had his cultivation drained by the Five Gods' Yuan-Stealing Array, his physical body should not be so fragile!

Upon closer inspection, everyone gasped in shock.

Although the Crimson Moon Witch King's face hadn't changed much compared to before, his body, hidden beneath his robes, had undergone a drastic transformation.

From the neck down, the skin and flesh were completely ulcerated, with pus and blood oozing everywhere, and rotten flesh covering the entire body. In some severely ulcerated areas, the bones and internal organs were even visible.

Without a doubt, although the Crimson Moon Witch King did not die in the Rotten Wasteland and even managed to escape back to the Chu Capital, the price he paid was extremely high and tragic.

"retribution!"

Xu Zhen cursed, then stopped looking at the Crimson Moon Witch King who was about to completely rot, and together with Lü Yang and Cheng Ren, rushed to the side of the Grand Master and the Clerk.

They feared that the situation of the Grand Master and the Pawnbroker would be just as bad as that of the Crimson Moon Witch King.

Fortunately, although the Grand Master and the Pawnbroker were extremely weak, their physical bodies were intact and they were still breathing.

The Rat Hunting Master took out a jade box covered with witch talismans from his bosom, opened it, and took out several golden needles, accurately inserting them into the Baihui and Shenting acupoints on the top of the two men's heads! He then pried open their jaws, poured in spiritual liquid and pills, and pressed his palms against their backs, continuously channeling pure witch power to help them neutralize the medicinal effects.

The group breathed a sigh of relief and, not wanting to waste any more time lingering there, immediately dispersed to search the surroundings and thoroughly clean up the Crimson Moon Witch Lord, who had been smashed into a bloody pulp.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shang Lu activated his internal vision technique to check the condition of his internal organs.

Just now, the Five Gods Seizing Yuan Formation was destroyed. The dust and witch energy generated by the collapse of both the Yin-Yang Altar and the Five Internal Organs Stone Pillars were largely absorbed by the Five Internal Organs Temple.

These dust particles and magical energy actually transformed into incense, candles, and grain offerings within the five internal organs, which were then placed on the offering table and absorbed by the spleen god statue.

Lu Yang surveyed the scattered corpses around him and suddenly asked, "Why haven't we seen the eldest prince of Chu? Could it be that he wasn't imprisoned here?"

Although he had never seen the eldest prince of Chu in person, he had seen his portrait with spirit patterns. None of the corpses here resembled the eldest prince of Chu.

Everyone was curious about this, and their attention was drawn to the surrounding corpses.

at this time.

The Crimson Moon Witch King, who had fallen to the ground and was rotting all over, had his body covered in pus and rotten flesh, which instantly turned into a foul blood mist.

The blood mist split in two.

A mass of blood condensed into countless arrows and blades, like a rain of pear blossoms, shooting towards the Grand Master and the Clerk, as well as the Rat Hunting, who was busy healing them and completely unprepared!

The timing is treacherous; we must strike when the person is off guard and kill them in one fell swoop.

The other group flew away at an extremely fast speed, attempting to escape this strange prison cell.

"Boom boom boom boom——"

Violent explosions rang out one after another.

The arrows formed from the blood mist did not harm the Grand Master or the Steward, nor did they harm the Rat Hunting.

A figure rushed forward and blocked their attack, deflecting all of Crimson Moon Witch Lord's sneak attacks.

It's pokeweed!
He activated his witch armor with all his might, continuously sending his vital energy into the spirit vortex reactor.

The reactor was running at full speed, roaring like thunder. The power it generated caused streaks of magical light to burst forth on the witch armor, weaving together to form a tough barrier of light.

The blood arrows and blades struck the light barrier, splattering blood everywhere, but ultimately failed to penetrate it!
Shang Lu fought with all his might to block the Crimson Moon Witch Lord's sneak attack.

However, it was discovered that the power of the Crimson Moon Witch King had fallen significantly compared to when he flew to Xingshan Military Town to provoke and challenge him!
The collapse of the decaying, treacherous land caused him immense damage.

After returning to the Chu capital, he was probably tortured by the King of Chu again, and even cursed and restricted. As a result, not only is his physical body terribly rotten, but his cultivation level has also plummeted from the third-grade Divine Descent Realm to the sixth-grade Mind Clarity Realm.

At this moment, it turned into a blood mist, splitting in two, and its strength further declined.

This allowed Shang Lu not only to block his sneak attack, but also to have the spare power to activate the Spirit Vortex Reactor and launch a counterattack.

"Swish swish swish——"

With a whooshing sound, more than a dozen armor plates engraved with witch runes shot out like flying swords, moving at great speed, and instantly caught up with the Crimson Moon Witch Lord who had turned into a blood mist and fled.

The magical energy on the armor plates surged and intertwined, converging into a large net of magical energy that firmly locked the blood mist, preventing it from escaping no matter how it tried to break free.

At the same time, the Shadow Spirit that Shang Lu had secretly released when he entered the cell also opened its mouth and sprayed a cloud of poisonous sand at the shadow cast by the blood mist.

The demon was also released by the Third Sister and swept towards the blood mist.

At the same time, Shang Lu and San Niang also attacked the Blood Mist.

"what--"

The blood mist, violently beaten by the couple, erupted with the mournful cry of the Crimson Moon Witch King.

He wanted to resist and struggle, but not only did his cultivation level plummet, he also had to endure excruciating pain from the corruption of the rotten and dangerous land.

The more he activated his magical power, the more intense the pain became, and the more severe his strange transformation became.

However, Lü Yang, Gongshu Ling, and the others also reacted at the same time, urging their swords to cast spells and attack the blood mist that the Crimson Moon Witch Lord had transformed into.

Trapped within the Witch Armor Formation, the Crimson Moon Witch Lord could only move about in the confined space. After withstanding several waves of attacks, he finally succumbed.

The blood mist surged and transformed into a hideous, monstrous face, roaring and howling at the crowd, about to unleash its final curse.

However, Shang Lu and San Niang did not grant him his wish.

Just as the Crimson Moon Witch King was about to curse with his life, Third Sister suddenly reached out and covered his mouth, disrupting the evil energy he was stirring up.

"The decaying body is offered as sacrifice, the filthy earth is the witness... Ugh, ugh..."

The curse of the Crimson Moon Witch King was instantly halted by the Third Sister's "silence".

Shang Lu, through his keen insight and the military technique of "Strike the Void," glimpsed a fleeting flaw in the Crimson Moon Witch Lord, who had turned into a blood mist.

"Destroy them!"

Shang Lu seized the opportunity, his beast whip transforming into a bolt of lightning, heading straight for the flaw that flashed in the blood mist.

"boom--"

The beast whip struck the Crimson Moon Witch Lord's weak point instantly, followed closely by thunder and fire, which roared out.

"Uh...uh..."

The Crimson Moon Witch King's mouth was tightly covered by Third Sister, preventing him from making a sound. The ghostly face formed from blood mist stared wide-eyed at Shang Lu with resentment.

It seemed to want to see through the witch's mask, to see and remember Shang Lu's face, so that it could come back to claim his life after transforming into a demon.

After a few breaths, the ghost face dissipated.

The soul of the Crimson Moon Witch King did not transform into an evil spirit; instead, it was directly captured by the Earth God Seal that appeared on the back of Shang Lu's hand and sent to the Yellow Springs.

Wow…

As soon as his soul dissipated, the blood mist lost its support and instantly collapsed, turning into foul-smelling, filthy blood that spilled onto the ground.

The once arrogant Crimson Moon Witch King ended up dying a gruesome death, not even receiving a coffin or a straw mat...
