You, a living person, are telling me I've served in the underworld for ten years?

Chapter 59 The Spirit of Demons Will Die If Killed

Even the underworld is invaded by "ghosts"!
“There have always been malevolent spirits causing trouble in various parts of the underworld, but none of them have been able to gain any real power. Once the underworld detects an outbreak of malevolent spirits in a certain place, it will immediately send underworld officials to suppress them.”

Lord Cui said, "Of course, there are strong and weak demon spirits. If the underworld officials are not capable, then the underworld generals and judges will have to take action... In the last few hundred years, the strongest demon spirit to appear in the underworld was comparable to a true immortal, and I personally suppressed it."

A demon spirit comparable to a true immortal?
If this were to appear in the human world, it would be a disaster!

Lord Cui noticed Chen Yang's worry and smiled, "You don't need to worry."

"If I am not mistaken, the demons in the human world may have invaded the underworld by taking advantage of the loosening of the seal between heaven and earth. Their strength is not too great, otherwise they would not have been able to pass through the seal... The scene in the mist that you mentioned in your letter may be a projection of the underworld."

"This is a good thing, indicating that the seal on heaven and earth is loosening more and more... Perhaps by finding the location of the spirit's spiritual domain, we can pinpoint the weak points in the seal and open the path between Yin and Yang in one fell swoop!"

Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Lord, how exactly is the demon spirit formed?"

There's a saying in the human world: "When a person dies, they become a ghost; when a ghost dies, they become a demon." But in reality, after a ghost dies, its soul is scattered and its true spirit disappears. Where is there any next life?

Lord Cui said, "The demon spirit does not belong to the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man, nor even to this era. It comes from another dimension of time and space and is an invader!"

After a pause, Lord Cui continued, "Back then, the powerful beings of the Three Realms set up a seal on heaven and earth, severing the connection between heaven and earth... actually to resist some powerful beings outside the Three Realms."

The separation of heaven and earth involves such secrets?

The myths and legends circulating in the Great Xia Dynasty also contain the story of "severing the connection between heaven and earth," but it is a different version.

However, these things were too far removed from his own life, and Chen Yang was more concerned about the "Demon Spirit".

He humbly asked, "Lord, how can I kill the demon spirit?"

Lord Cui said, "The demon spirit is neither a flesh and blood body nor a soul body, but a special energy spirit body. Therefore, ordinary spells and immortal techniques have limited power to kill it. Only powerful forces can be used to annihilate the demon spirit's spirit body."

"When the energy body of the demon spirit is damaged to a certain extent, it will completely dissipate."

"What about the Taoist thunder and fire magic?"

Chen Yang said, "The demon spirit in the human world was wounded by a martial artist with a single strike... Could it be that the martial artist's blood energy and martial will can also harm the demon spirit?"

Lord Cui said, "Taoist thunder and fire magic can naturally annihilate the spirit of the demon... but how can you, a night wandering god, cultivate Taoist thunder and fire magic?"

Your Excellency, your vision is too narrow!
Chen Yang thought to himself, "A proper Night Wanderer is a spirit, a ghost cultivator, so naturally they can't cultivate the Daoist thunder and fire techniques... But I'm different!"

I have my own physical body, and I am a "night wanderer" living in the human world. Why can't I cultivate myself?

Lord Cui had no idea what Chen Yang was thinking. He continued, "If a human martial artist has strong enough blood and qi and a strong enough martial will, he can naturally kill the demon spirit."

"Once the demon spirit dies, its spiritual domain will crumble, and the mist it created will naturally dissipate!"

Compared to the spirit itself.

The "Misty Spirit Realm" it creates is the most terrifying.

This "Misty Spirit Realm" was formed because of the Demon Spirit, but in essence it is not the same as the Demon Spirit. It can be considered a companion of the "Demon Spirit". The Misty Spirit Realm even has a simple consciousness and can expand its territory by assimilating living beings!

The larger the Misty Spirit Realm, the stronger the accompanying evil spirits will be.

But also…

Even the demon spirits and the "mist" fear living beings!
This is similar to that of ghosts.

Ghosts can harm people and absorb their yang energy to strengthen themselves, but they also fear yang energy!
The city is so densely populated that ordinary demon spirits are neither willing nor able to invade it for the time being... This characteristic made Chen Yang secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Go!"

"Eliminate the demon spirit as soon as possible, locate the weak points in the spatial realm, and open the path between Yin and Yang..."

"When that day comes, I will personally go to the mortal realm to escort you back to the underworld!"

Lord Cui waved his hand...

Wow!
A gust of cold wind blew by. Chen Yang was jolted awake when he found himself back in that dilapidated room.

The fog in the office dissipated.

Chen Yang sensed the increase in his cultivation level, took out three "Soul Condensing Pills" and refined them one by one before leaving the room.

Outside, night had fallen.

Wei Rufeng and the others, who were waiting outside, rushed up to Chen Yang upon seeing him and asked, "Master Chen, have you made contact with the Underworld?"

Chen Yang nodded and explained the origin and characteristics of the demon spirit.

"Will the mist dissipate once the demon spirit dies?"

Wei Rufeng said happily, "Knowing the characteristics of the demon spirit and the mist makes things much easier... Even if we can't kill the demon spirit, we can control the expansion of the mist. Send the word to completely seal off Five Dragon Mountain. No one is allowed to enter the mountain without the approval of the Special Administration Bureau!"

"Lin Miao... contact headquarters and report this matter!"

After giving all the instructions, Wei Rufeng grasped Chen Yang's hand and expressed his gratitude.

He said this news was a great achievement for Da Xia, and he would definitely apply to his superiors to reward Chen Yang.

Chen Yang declined modestly, saying, "This is just my duty, it's nothing."

That's all for now regarding Wulong Mountain.

Chen Yang planned to settle accounts with the demon spirit after he learned the "Qingwei Thunder Technique". He called Gu Jinghui and the old man who was wandering in the village, said goodbye to Wei Rufeng, and drove back to Gucheng overnight.

The next morning, the group of two people and a ghost took "Teacher Zhang's" ashes and went to Jing County again.

"Chen Yang, we've found out."

"Teacher Zhang's younger brother's grandson is named Zhang Xu. He is 27 years old this year and works in the Jing County government... His father is a teacher and is now the vice principal of Jing County No. 3 Middle School. His grandfather retired more than ten years ago and is now living at home."

Judging from Ms. Zhang's age, her younger brother must be over seventy years old now.

Knowing the name and workplace makes it easy to find.

Especially since Gu Jinghui himself was from the Criminal Investigation Department, he soon started chatting and laughing with a policewoman after arriving at the Jing County government office. When he asked about Zhang Xu's situation, the policewoman said, "There was a last-minute mission last night, and Zhang Xu went to Long County with the bureau chief... I heard that there seems to be some big case there!"

Gu Jinghui turned around and glanced at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang then asked with a smile, "Comrade, could you please ask... when Zhang Xu will be back?"

The policewoman took out her phone to make a call when a male officer beside her said, "Gentlemen... I'm really sorry, Zhang Xu is on duty right now and it's inconvenient for him to contact you."

Upon hearing this, the policewoman had no choice but to put down her phone.

Chen Yang couldn't help but smile.

He keenly caught a slight fluctuation in the "male police officer's" mental state... Clearly, he was somewhat interested in the female police officer, and seeing her chatting and laughing with Gu Jinghui and Chen Yang, he felt a little jealous.

This is normal.

He is a person first, and only secondly is he the "Hat Uncle".

Chen Yang didn't press the matter. He glanced at Gu Jinghui and said, "Director Wang from Gucheng should still be at Wulong Mountain, right? Contact Wang Lin and ask him to tell Director Wang to give Zhang Xu a break first."

"........."

Inside the office, the several uncles wearing hats from the Jing County government office suddenly looked up and stared at Chen Yang!

PS: Waaaaah, brothers, I also want to update more, but because I was eliminated in the first round of PK and then had to play in the revival round, I only got the second recommendation after 14 words. I have to wait for the recommendation to be published. During the new book period, some recommendations will not be published if the word count exceeds the limit. Don't worry, everyone, we will release a lot of updates as soon as it is published!
