Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 90 Five Elements Ghost New Mystery

The secret [Ghost Possession Technique] of [Yambu Dao] is the core of the [Ghost Exorcism] system and its power is immeasurable.

For a cultivator who practices the art of exorcism, every time a powerful ghost comes into his body, his strength will be increased by one level, and the effect is extremely significant.

Therefore, raising ghosts is a profound knowledge in the Yamabu tradition.

Different ghosts have different talents [fates], so the effects after they possess a person are naturally very different.

Refining and collecting different kinds of ghosts can greatly enrich the monk's tactical system and is a compulsory course for all [Ghost Exorcist] monks.

However, such a powerful [Ghost Possession Technique] actually has its limitations.

Although each large ghost that possesses one's body can greatly increase combat power, it will also place a great burden on the physical body.

Therefore, every time a cultivator uses the [Ghost Possession Technique], the duration of the technique is extremely short.

In a fight, it is normal to first drive the evil ghost to fight with the opponent, consume enough of the opponent's magic power, and then use the [Ghost Possession Technique] to win the victory in one fell swoop.

This secret technique is more like a transformation skill with a very long CD and a very short duration. It is not a conventional means of combat.

However, among the many evil ghosts, there is a type of ghost that has no effect on the body of a cultivator and can possess the body for a long time.

That is the [birth ghost] summoned by the monk through his [fate].

This kind of evil spirit is connected to the cultivator's [fate] and is actually two sides of the same coin.

When they attach to the body, they are just like the monk's own organs and tissues, quite harmonious and indistinguishable from each other.

Therefore, it is completely burden-free and can provide all-weather coverage without blind spots.

For the disciples of the [Ghost Exorcist] lineage, occupying [life] and smelting one or even multiple [birth ghost] life patterns is a necessary practice.

In the Yanfu inheritance system, there is a [Fate], which is almost a must-learn for the [Exorcist] lineage:

【Five Ghosts】

[Rank: Blue Blood]

[When the Five Ghosts appear, luck will soar. This month, disasters and misfortunes will occur.]

Just one [Life Grid] can accommodate five big ghosts. When the five ghosts possess the body, the magic power can be stimulated to more than twice the original power, which is extremely cost-effective.

And this [Five Ghosts] blue [Fate] is already the most powerful in the entire [Yambu Dao] inheritance, and can accommodate the acquired [Fate] of multiple [Birth Ghosts].

For higher grades, it depends on the cultivators to awaken on their own.

However, compared with Jing Qian's [Hell Scroll], even [Jin Xinggen's] mission to exorcise ghosts cannot be compared at all.

In all the [Hell Scrolls], the big ghosts raised are all [Birth Ghosts].

It allows Jing Qian to use the [Ghost Possession Technique] without any burden.

For him, the most direct and efficient way to improve his combat power is to raise more big ghosts from the scrolls.

On this basis, Jing Qian possesses the [Chun Yang Xu] sword art, and his attacking power is far superior to that of ordinary Yanfu disciples.

After receiving enough blessings from evil spirits, he can become a [Chun Yang Xu] swordsman with no shortage of magic power.

At this time, Jing Qian had no idea how incredible this was.

If he is lucky enough to truly accept the inheritance of [Chun Yang Ruins], he will have a new understanding of this.

At this moment, Jing Qian stood in front of the dangerous place [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts] with only one purpose.

That is to hunt ghosts, replenish resources, and raise a few new big ghosts in the [Hell Scroll].

This secret realm of the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] is the area in the entire [Yingfutu Realm] where ghosts are most prevalent.

It spans a sea area of ​​100,000 miles, just isolating [Hunzhou] from the mainland of the Divine Dynasty.

As a result, communication between the two is extremely poor.

Even the fleet of [Qiyue Island] needs to travel a long distance to go to [Haizhou].

It is impossible to tell how many ghosts there are in this vast [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts].

According to legend, in the deepest part, there are even ghost kings of the top three grades.

For the monks of [Yambu Dao], this [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts] is a vegetable basket and a butcher shop, and it is a treasure land for cultivation that cannot be missed.

Jing Qian transformed into a stream of light and moved freely into the [Sea of ​​Ghosts].

In the eyes of [World Solution], this terrifying sea area is like a green screen.

And on the green screen, black grass buds are dotted everywhere.

Every grass sprout is a faint remnant of soul.

The so-called residual soul is the remnant of the soul of a living being. It is born by absorbing vital energy and has been transformed into a real evil ghost, but has not yet condensed into shape.

These residual souls correspond to the level of the human race in absorbing qi and nourishing essence. They have not yet reached the grade, but already have essence qi and magic power.

For other [Ghost Exorcist] monks, these residual souls are useless. They must find a truly powerful ghost and try to subdue and suppress it.

But for Jing Qian, who possesses the [Hell Scroll], the residual soul is also very useful.

As the most powerful ghost-exorcist [Destiny], [Hell Scroll] can absorb the power of residual souls, light up the illustrations on its own, and evolve into a high-quality ghost.

Like other [Ghost Exorcist] monks, he can also look for high-quality big ghosts and suppress and subdue them.

It is quite flexible!
Jing Qian followed the map and rushed towards the grass sprouts within his field of vision. In a flash of light, he appeared next to a remnant soul. The [Weaving Soul] silk threads intertwined and directly hugged the remnant soul to death.

A wisp of gray smoke curled out and was absorbed into Jing Qian's [Hell Scroll].

On the scroll, a faint ghost shadow appeared, following the [Mist Ghost].

His escape light kept circling around the periphery of the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts], drawing a winding arc among the many residual souls.

It is so easy to harvest the remaining souls with [Weaving Souls].

The third ghost on the scroll was also evolving rapidly.

As he went deeper, the number of residual souls increased and became more and more dense.

Jingqian's harvesting speed is also getting faster and faster.

Two hours passed in a flash, and he had already gone deep into the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts], strangling countless residual souls. The third ghost shadow on the [Hell Scroll] finally took shape.

He created a new ghost according to his own wishes and needs:
Beacon Imp

[Rank: Ninth Grade]

【Fate: Hidden Ghost (Green)】

This ninth-grade ghost was specially refined by Jing Qian as a functional ghost to carry the [Sumeru] beacon for him.

He has the fate of [Ghost Hiding] and is best at hiding his body shape and breath. By borrowing Jing Qian's [The Other Shore is Still Young] escape magic power, he can travel for Jing Qian and measure the world.

With the existence of the [Beacon Ghost], bigger ghosts with more powerful functions like the [Painted Skin Ghost] and the [Fog Ghost] can be carried with you at all times.

Jing Qian continued to move forward and kill the remaining souls. Not long after, he refined another [Beacon Imp].

There are already four ghosts on the scroll!

Suddenly, a different existence finally appeared in his field of vision.

Among the numerous grass sprouts, a shrub that was much taller emerged.

He approached without hesitation, but it turned out to be a ninth-grade headless evil ghost!

Jing Qian slashed out a sword thread, and the evil ghost was easily cut in half.

Then, the [Hell Scroll] rolled forward and swallowed the remains of the evil spirit.

The fifth ghost figure instantly emerged and began to evolve!
Using truly high-quality evil ghosts as materials, he can try to sacrifice and refine the special ghosts in the [Yambu Dao] inheritance.

Jing Qian had already gone deep enough into the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls], and ninth-grade ghosts began to appear gradually. He accepted all of them and killed them with a single stroke of his sword as soon as he saw them, quickly killing them all.

His will was as strong as iron and his sword was as fierce as a dragon. He was achieving victory at an unimaginable speed.

One after another, the ninth-grade ghosts were slain by his sword.

Unlike the evil ghosts that haunt the Yin Year, the evil ghosts in the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts] will not yield any treasures when killed.

Unless there are special means to refine and subdue the evil spirits, killing them is a losing business.

Therefore, there are very few cultivators in this extremely dangerous place.

Anyone who can come to this desperate place to kill ghosts and practice cultivation must be extremely good at dealing with ghosts.

They must also be extremely familiar with the situation in the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts].

Among these people, no one dared to kill and reap as crazily as Jing Qian was at this moment.

This vast and dangerous place looks like a chaotic doomsday scene with chaos and disorder.

But in fact, there are rules hidden underwater.

When external enemies invade, if they kill too much, they will be rejected by the entire [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls]. Powerful ghosts will be attracted from the depths of the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] to eliminate them.

But such backlash is Jing Qian’s real goal.

After he killed the tenth ninth-grade evil ghost, he clearly felt a dark magical power falling on his head.

He was finally marked by the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts]!

Within his field of vision, a towering tree was rushing towards him.

Jing Qian stood there happily, waiting silently.

Instead of working hard to find suitable evil ghosts to kill, why not just make a loud mockery and automatically attract powerful ghosts?
The opening of [Zhuling Cave Heaven] is imminent, and the improvement of his cultivation realm is nowhere in sight.

It is still necessary to use the [Hell Scroll] to quickly refine some ghosts, and then invite the ghosts to possess the body to increase the combat power.

At the end of his vision, a twisted black and white demon with two heads and seven arms rushed towards him with boundless momentum. Judging from its magical aura, it was a powerful demon of the seventh rank.

It’s exactly what Jingqian was thinking!
Without any hesitation, he turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the big ghost.

Before the person arrived, a bright sword thread came out and slashed out.

After a long time, the power of the fundamental sword energy accumulated in the [Qingping Sword Box] increased again.

The [Qingping Sword Qi] that was differentiated at this time, transformed into sword threads, has the ability to cut through sixth-grade enemies.

He, the [Lingjizi] of the two major lineages of [Yambu Dao] and [Chun Yangxu], can already jump two levels to kill the enemy!
The sword thread slashed straight, and the seventh-grade ghost was instantly destroyed, turning into a ball of gray smoke and entering the [Hell Scroll].

After absorbing a seventh-grade big ghost, ten ninth-grade big ghosts, and countless residual souls, the fifth big ghost was successfully born!

Jing Qian chose to refine this ghost using the secret method recorded in the "Yamfu Cave Dark Wheel Turning Dao Book":

【Ganmu Green Faced Ghost】

[Rank: Eighth Grade]

[Life: Nourishing the Liver (Blue)]

As soon as the big ghost was formed, Jing Qian immediately summoned it out, but it was a small green-faced ghost the size of a palm.

He activated the [Ghost Possession Technique] and instantly sucked the little ghost into his stomach.

The power transformed from the green-faced little ghost circulated in his body and then landed on his liver, turning into a cool aura and blending into it, forming a light green line.

Jing Qian shivered, and felt a sense of clarity and comfort all over his body, from head to toe.

The function of his liver was actually increased tenfold, and his physical body also received a great boost.

His own magic power also increased by 10% instantly, and his combat power soared.

This feeling was so wonderful that he couldn't stop. He just hung above the sea and began to experience it silently.

However, after he easily strangled this seventh-grade evil ghost, the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts] mark on his head became stronger again, and the intensity of the taunt increased again.

Not long after, five seventh-grade evil ghosts came together.

Jingqian opens its doors to welcome guests and will make sure these five new friends feel at home.

This time, he did not act too aggressively, but chose to escape into the dimensional void and then cut the sword thread out of the dimension.

Only when you are in an invincible position can you defeat your enemies one by one more calmly.

Thirty void cracks covered the entire battlefield, surrounding the five big ghosts.

Sharp sword threads kept slashing in and out, and behind the sword threads there were sword shadows following closely. For a moment, the sword energy was flowing everywhere, strangling madly.

The five seventh-grade evil ghosts had strong combat capabilities, but they had no [Spiritual Power] to protect them. They could not withstand Jing Qian's sword strikes at all and were killed and devoured by him one after another.

With five seventh-grade evil ghosts as nourishment, four new eighth-grade ghosts were suddenly refined on Jing Qian's [Hell Scroll].

They are the [Heart Fire Nourishing Hair Ghost] that "protects the heart"; the [Spleen Earth Nourishing Belly Ghost] that "strengthens the spleen"; the [Lung Gold Casting Tooth Ghost] that "clears the lungs"; and the [Kidney Water Nourishing Pupil Ghost] that "tonifies the kidneys".

After the four big ghosts appeared, Jing Qian immediately activated the [Ghost Possession Technique] and invited the four ghosts to possess his body as well.

These four ghosts were no different from the [Liver Wood Green-faced Ghost]. After circling around, they each landed on Jing Qian's heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.

From then on, all five ghosts appeared in his body, and ghosts were protecting his five internal organs, and the functions of various organs increased significantly.

More importantly, his mana capacity was increased to 1.5 times the normal level, and his strength soared.

These five big ghosts are extremely famous in the inheritance of [Yambu Dao], and are collectively called [Five Elements and Five Organs Ghosts]. They are best at protecting the internal organs and nourishing the body.

Long-term use of the abilities of the [Five Elements and Five Organs Ghosts] to maintain health can not only greatly increase physical strength and enhance the defense of internal organs, but can even increase lifespan and enhance magic power.

The moment Jing Qian learned about the existence of these five ghosts, he made up his mind to refine them.

This [Five Elements and Five Organs Ghost] can be said to be the most suitable ghost to reside in one's body.

Since he has the ability to refine it into his [Birthday Ghost], he naturally cannot miss it.

Thanks to the abundant evil ghost resources in the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts], he successfully refined the [Five Elements and Five Visceral Ghosts] and invited these five ghosts to possess his body.

He had already decided that, if nothing unexpected happened, he would keep these five ghosts in his body to always bless his five internal organs.

In addition to its own effects, after the five ghosts entered his body, he felt as if he were filled with five ice-crystals, which stimulated a cool and refreshing feeling all over his body. It was an indescribable comfort, and he had no choice but to give up.

Jing Qian was adapting to the changes in his body and magic power while waiting for new enemies to arrive.

The mark of [Sea of ​​Ghosts] on his body has become increasingly thick, almost as if it is about to condense into substance.

The next wave of enemies will be of the sixth level, right?
Jing Qian was extremely excited!

Even though he had been promoted to the rank of [Dragon Elephant] and possessed the [Green Wing Life Essence], his cultivation had skyrocketed.

This is a direct confrontation with a sixth-grade ghost, and it is also an extremely important challenge!

He regarded the upcoming battle as an advance rehearsal for the Zhuoling Dongtian group.

If the information provided by Fan Zhuoyi is correct, he will encounter Lingjizi, who is at the realm of [Yanshou] of the great Dharma lineage, in the cave.

This group of monsters are the strongest of their generation selected and cultivated by the entire [Yingfutu Realm]. Each of them has the ability to kill monsters of higher levels.

In other words, if Jing Qian couldn't even deal with a sixth-grade ghost, then if he really entered the [Zhuling Cave Heaven], he would just be a bottom-tier guy!
Jing Qian gathered his scattered thoughts and poured all his mind into the terrifying evil spirit that had appeared before him.

He saw a huge petrel covered with corrosive sores flying towards him with its wings flapping.

The seagull spread its wings, thousands of pustules burst, dark green poisonous mist poured down like a waterfall, and rolled up a horrible poisonous rain, forming a deadly land where all life was exterminated.

Even Jing Qian at this moment could not bear being caught in such poisonous rain.

He quietly hid in the dimension and fled towards where Haiyan was. He still chose to rely on [Sumeru] to fight, which was the safest way of fighting.

This swallow ghost, covered in poison, inexplicably lost its sense of the enemy and hesitated for a moment.

But the next second, an extremely sharp sword energy suddenly emerged from nowhere and cut off its right wing.

The evil seagull ghost let out a long cry, and a terrifying sword wound deep enough to see the bone immediately appeared on its wings.

And that’s not all. Following this sword strike, five sword shadows successively hit the wound, further expanding it.

Before this, the fate of [Little Ghost] was successfully connected to the [Qingping Sword Box].

It can bring a sword shadow to Jing Qian's [Qingping Sword Qi]. Although its power is not as strong as the sword Qi itself, it is a free output of a sword shadow. It does not consume mana and can greatly increase the richness of attack methods.

The sword energy is accompanied by sword shadows, which can even cause unexpected results if not defended in time, which is quite treacherous.

And when [Little Ghost] is promoted to [Hell Scroll], the magical blessing it brings to [Qingping Sword Box] is also comprehensively improved.

From then on, the more ghosts Jing Qian invited to possess his body, the more sword shadows would appear when he slashed with his sword.

【Five Elements and Five Organ Ghosts】 took up residence, and when he swung his sword, five sword shadows followed.

Even though each sword shadow only has 10% of the power of the original sword thread, its power is extremely strong due to its large number.

With one sword, the petrel's wings were almost completely cut off. It couldn't even maintain its shape for a moment and fell towards the sea.

However, the magic power in its body twisted and rolled, and the ghost body flowed like a sticky liquid, patching the wound and restoring its original state.

This Yan ghost is not a physical ghost body, but is condensed from magic power. Even though Jing Qian's sword thread is powerful and can easily break through the opponent's magic defense and destroy its body, it cannot kill it with one blow and cause absolute damage.

At this moment, Yan Gui was like a sticky piece of taffy under Jing Qian's sword, which could not be cut or removed.

Moreover, as he slashed, more and more poisonous mist dissipated from Yan Gui's body, dyeing the entire sky a hazy dark green.

Within the dimension, Jing Qian was unaware of anything. He was just concentrating on brewing the sword thread and slashing at Yan Gui with one sword after another.

He has not received the true teachings of [Chun Yang Xu], and currently relies entirely on the sword energy generated by the combination of [Qing Ping Sword Box] and [Qing Ping Mo] to fight the enemy. He still has great potential to be tapped.

And every time he draws his sword, he can deepen his sword skills.

He would never miss a target as tough as Yan Gui.

As he was fully focused, the [Qingping Sword Box] became more active, blending with his entire body's magic power and being tempered at all times.

The power of the sword in his hand also continued to increase.

For him, this was an exhilarating swordsmanship training, an excellent test to stretch his muscles and bones and to test his offensive limits.

Three days passed in a flash!
Jing Qian converted all his accumulated magical powers into sword threads and slashed at Yan Gui. It was the first time in his life that he used his full strength to strike with the sword, until his body was completely exhausted.

Looking at the Yan ghost, he was also seriously injured. Under the continuous wear and tear, only a faint ghost shadow was left, like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.

This thorough trial also successfully brought about another breakthrough in Jing Qian's swordsmanship.

On the [Qingping Sword Box], there are two [Fate Grids] connected to each other, [Weaving Soul] and [Hell Scroll], and there is still space to carry five [Fate Grids].

During this continuous adjustment, a new [Fate] finally broke through the limitations successfully and formed a wonderful connection with the [Sword Box].

In [Solution to the World], many methods of connecting [Fate] and [Qingping Sword Box] are continuously being deduced.

Among them, [Sumeru], [Ghost Seal], [Nourish the Meat Buds] and [The Other Shore Weiyang], because of their higher [Fate] levels, their progress is quite slow.

On the contrary, the [Lifespan] fate, which was only half a step to the [Blue Blood] level, was successfully deduced and connected with the [Qingping Sword Box].

The [Lifespan] fate has a strange nature. It neither occupies [life number] nor increases [life essence] magic power.

The most important thing is that this is a unique [fate] that can only be awakened in the [longevity] realm. In the history of [Chunyang Ruins], no one has ever connected the [lifespan] fate to the [sword box] inspiration.

Jing Qian accidentally made history again!
The benefits of his early awakening of [Lifespan] are still continuously emerging.

The magical blessing brought by the [Lifespan] destiny has an immediate effect.

When Jing Qian drew his sword again, a unique meaning was attached to his sword thread. With one sword, he killed Yan Gui, whose vitality was severely damaged, on the spot.

After three days of hard work, he finally killed a sixth-rank powerful man for the first time!
