Chapter 162: The First Corpse Taoist on the List

After realizing the peculiarity of the Ghost Prince, Yang He was no longer in a hurry to play the role.

His top priority now is to advance to the evil ghost realm. Although the Ghost Prince can obtain the motherly love of Queen Jiang, his life span of five or six days is too short and he cannot last until the three ghosts break through the bottleneck.

"Lutai is the key, and it is also the place where Chaoge's yin energy gathers."

"I will be able to take the initiative in Investiture of the Gods only after the three ghosts are promoted one after another. The Ghost Prince should be fine with Queen Jiang by his side."

Yang He seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes sweeping over the four permanent characters.

"By the way, Lü Yue's dojo is on Jiulong Island. If I play the role of Lü Yue, can I command the monks summoned by Shen Gongbao?"

Yang He shook his head. Shen Gongbao was a very evil person and nothing good would happen to him.

"It's still the corpse Taoist child."

"Since we are going to play a permanent role, without considering the Immaculate Buddha, we will definitely choose the strongest corpse boy."

Yang He smiled.

Calculating the time of the Heart-Digger, his realm should be about the same as Nezha's. At least he doesn't have to be criticized for his slow progress in cultivation.

[The permanent characters 〈Corpse Taoist Child〉, 〈Pure Buddha〉, 〈Third Prince〉, and 〈Plague Taoist〉 are already famous in the List of Gods. The spiritual vision required for 〈Heart-Digging Ghost〉 to revive after each death will increase. ]

"As expected, they all have to be on the list. This is inevitable."

[Corpse Dao Tong: You have been practicing in Qianyuan Mountain for a long time. You received a request for help from your fellow uncle and planned to go down the mountain to help him escape from Chaoge.]

Except for the exquisite pagoda, he took all the other Yin instruments with him, including the copper coin sword that was still being tempered, and the black cat squatting in front of the door.

"The Taoist tradition of Tian Mingyu seems to be beast refining. If we can obtain it, we might be able to create something like the Five-Unlike."

"Play the role of [Corpse Dao Tong]."

.........

The moonlight was dim, and the negative energy in front of the Lu Terrace rose into the sky.

Queen Jiang was holding the corpse of a baby who had just died. The surrounding plants and trees had turned into evil spirits, bringing an indescribable sense of oppression.

"Your Majesty."

The soldiers felt horrified when they heard Queen Jiang's whispers.

A middle-aged general blocked the evil spirit, pulled all the affected soldiers back to his side, and stared at Queen Jiang breathlessly.

After Queen Jiang became a killing ghost, her body grew to more than seven meters tall, with twenty or thirty pairs of long and narrow arms, making her look more like a centipede.

Her eyes were filled with resentment as she walked towards the middle-aged general step by step.

Moo~~

Suddenly, a deafening roar of cows was heard in the distance.

A strange bull with five-colored light flashing and as bright as Queen Jiang suddenly appeared and directly suppressed the turbulent yin energy.

The five-colored strange bull lowered its head to gather strength and let out another bull cry.

Moo~~

A trace of clarity flashed in Queen Jiang's eyes, and two lines of tears flowed. Then she turned and walked towards the bedroom with the dead baby.

The plants returned to their original state, but the roots and stems still showed vascularity.

The soldiers could vaguely hear a very sad nursery rhyme.

"One on one, two on two, I'm carrying you on my back. I'm carrying you for a walk. I'll ask you, how old are you? One, two, three, four..."

Huang Feihu walked slowly to the outside of Lutai and watched Queen Jiang leave.

The horns were still wriggling in his shriveled abdomen, and the five-colored strange bull turned into five internal organs again.

The middle-aged general said coldly: "Brother, that Chan sect monk has found a group of rabble, and I don't know what they are doing. The harem has become more and more chaotic in recent days."

"Second brother, Wen Zhong has been suppressing the rebellion in the East China Sea for three years, and now Lutai has caused trouble again. We don't have the energy to deal with the endless stream of evil spirits."

Huang Feihu knew that Shen Gongbao obviously had other intentions.

But the source is in Lu Tai. Until the trouble is solved, the harem will not be at peace. Shen Gongbao's conspiracy is indeed unsolvable.

As Queen Jiang walked, she continued to infuse large amounts of Yin energy into the corpse of the baby.

This attracted many people in the dark to look at the dead baby.

Everyone can see the magic of the corpse baby.

Born with three heads and six arms, accompanied by spiritual pupils and a ghost body. Even the immortal body is no more than this. It is the most superior resource for cultivation.

And the value of the corpse baby continues to increase, after all, there is a killing ghost to temper it.

"Humph."

Huang Feihu snorted with disdain, "They are indeed a mob. Let them fight among themselves. As long as it does not affect Lutai, ignore them."

"kindness."

"Also, bring the condemned prisoners to Lutai."

Huang Feihu raised his eyes and glanced at the night sky. "It's almost time. Jiang Ziya has been in Lutai for five hours. I don't know if he has gained anything."

Huang Feibiao hurried to do it.

After a while, soldiers came escorting the strong man with his head covered.

The strong man had many lives on his hands, and even when the time came, he kept shouting until he came into contact with a rag package.

The soldiers were terrified and the strong man's screams reached their ears.

Wrinkles appeared on his skin, his hair turned gray, his hunched body bent on his knees and struggled, and in just a few moments he had turned into another person.

"Well."

Jiang Ziya opened his eyes and looked straight at Lu Tai with a serious expression.

Huang Feihu asked, "How is it? Have you found the king?"

"found it."

Huang Feihu's brows relaxed and his eyes swept over the stunned figures on and off the Lu Terrace.

Jiang Ziya explained: "Your Majesty is protected by Huang Feibao, and I have also set up a magic circle for him, but he cannot escape from it for the time being."

Huang Feihu remained silent. Jiang Ziya had been in and out of Lu Tai many times.

The Lutai seemed to have life, and the space inside was constantly expanding. Not to mention King Zhou, Huang Feihu had no confidence in getting out of it. "Don't worry, I have some clues, and I will go in again later."

Huang Feihu sighed, "What about Queen Jiang? Has she really died in Lutai?"

"kindness."

Jiang Ziya looked around belatedly and sensed the gloomy energy among the trees and grasses. "Is this... the evil spirit of Queen Jiang?"

"Just because of a dead baby, Queen Jiang went on a rampage and injured people." Huang Feihu added with a headache: "She is already a murderous ghost."

"The killer ghost is indeed difficult to deal with. I hope Junior Brother Shen can calm the harem."

Jiang Ziya frowned, as the timing of Shen Gongbao's appearance was too clever, and Lu Tai almost lost control as Shen Gongbao arrived in Chaoge right after.

Huang Feibiao couldn't help but interrupt, "Master Jiang, didn't you say that only when someone dies in Lu Tai will evil spirits spawn in the outside world? Why are the corpse baby and Prince Yin Jiao so similar?"

"impossible."

According to the rules of Lu Tai, if a living person dies in Lu Tai, an identical evil spirit will appear outside. Yin Jiao became a disciple of Guang Chengzi, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, and should have practiced in Jiuxian Mountain.

Huang Feihu interrupted and said, "The corpse baby is not evil, perhaps it is just the thought of Queen Jiang."

"Second brother, send a few people to watch the palace, and inform us if Queen Jiang makes any unusual moves."

Huang Feibiao nodded in agreement, and before leaving, he reminded: "Jiang Ziya, your lovely wife has been making trouble outside the palace. If you have time, let her know."

Jiang Ziya smiled awkwardly and was about to reply when he noticed something.

After saying goodbye to Huang Feihu, he found a secluded corner, opened the package, and took out an ancient scroll from it.

The scroll was flickering with Taoist rhyme, and warmth continued to burst out from it.

"Why is there any change in the Conferred God List?"

Jiang Ziya opened the List of Gods, and it was blank without any words.

According to Yuanshi Tianzun, the characters on the List of Gods will appear one after another, and those on the list are all people who have followed the will of heaven and experienced tribulations.

Jiang Ziya was about to close the List of Gods when suddenly Dao Yunyun gathered in the first line.

Outline the writing clearly visible.

'Disciple of Jin Guang Cave in Qianyuan Mountain of Chanjiao, corpse Taoist child'

"Nephew? He is actually the first one on the list."

Jiang Ziya counted with his fingers and looked excited. The Taoist corpse was on his way to Chaoge. With his nephew around, things would surely go much more smoothly.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. I don't know how your nephew is doing."

Jiang Ziya took out the talisman and transmitted his thoughts, then thought of his noisy wife. He rested for a while and then entered the Lu Tai again.

.........

Two days later.

There was a strong wind in Chaoge, and soon the place was covered with dark clouds.

Zhou Ji stood at the city gate and looked towards the suburbs. Even before nightfall, he could hear strange rustling sounds coming from the wilderness.

The officers and soldiers were terrified when they saw this. "Master Zhou, why don't we close the city gates in advance? Otherwise, it might attract... evil spirits."

"What's there to be afraid of?"

"Chaoge is the capital of the Shang Dynasty. How can it be closed early for evil spirits?"

Zhou Ji scolded him and then took the initiative to stand at the city gate.

Ever since the Nuwa Festival ended, Chaoge has been somewhat uneasy. Originally, there would be no evil spirits roaming within a hundred miles of the capital, but now, the imperial palace has become a restricted area where evil spirits roam.

Zhou Ji knew that the soldiers were talking about him behind his back.

What saint no longer protects the Shang Dynasty?

Chaoge tried to remedy the situation, including treating slaves well or building the Lu Terrace to guess the will of heaven.

But it was of no use, as the statues of Nuwa in the city had inexplicably collapsed.

Zhou Ji felt powerless and asked Huang Feihu but got no answer. Could it be that the Shang Dynasty had really gone against the grain and no longer had national destiny?

Woo woo woo.

The terrifying sound of ghost cries echoed.

Zhou Ji subconsciously raised his eyes and saw that more and more evil spirits were gathering on both sides of the official road. Twisted shadows were moving around, staring at the people greedily.

The people were so frightened that they hurriedly ran into the city gate.

You can feel that as the shadow spreads, the evil spirit is getting closer and closer to the living.

"Hurry into the city! It's too dangerous in the dark!"

Zhou Ji noticed a mother and son who were staggering.

Before he got close, the little boy suddenly opened his eyes, his cloudy and lifeless pupils were without any spirit, and a foul smell hit him in the face.

The mother next to him is a corpse, controlled by the little boy to attract living people.

"not good!!"

It was too late for Zhou Ji to move away. He could only watch the little boy open his mouth wide, and his long, narrow tongue almost pierced his neck.

He covered the wound, and his flesh and blood forced themselves together to lock it shut. The biting coldness penetrated deep into his bones, and instead aroused the ferocity in Zhou Ji's bones.

Roar!
The ghost inside the body roared and shook the little boy away.

Zhou Ji tried to find a flaw, but found that more and more evil spirits were rushing towards Chaoge.

It was obvious that they were forcing the officers and soldiers to close the doors so that they could better share the food among themselves.

"Damn it."

"I can only hide outside the city for one night. What kind of world is this?"

Zhou Ji's body was covered with tiger hair and he transformed into a ferocious tiger with hanging eyes and leaped up.

Sudden.

The ghost shuddered inexplicably and actually retracted its intestines and stomach on its own.

Zhou Ji fell to the ground. A four-meter-long black panther appeared in front of him. The fishy wind from its mouth and nose made his cheeks hurt.
