Journey to the West: The Rise of Martial Arts

Chapter 426 Beimang Ghost King
Ren Qinglian raised her hand and split the surrounding ghosts in half with a sword qi. The black blood dispersed rapidly, but quickly and slowly merged together, forming a larger and more ferocious ghost.

Yang Chan's heart skipped a beat, and her face was full of surprise: "These monsters can't be killed, right?"

"It's just a few low-level ghosts, how can it be impossible to kill them!" Ren Qinglian said, her fist strength was flying vertically and horizontally. smash.

Seeing that these things are about to repeat their old tricks and merge together, Ren Qinglian's fist strength slowly forms a mysterious imprint in the void. In Yang Chan's curious face, the imprint emits a dark strange light, It sucked in all the soul powder crumbs floating in the sky.

"Sure enough, with my current level of martial arts, even without the power of the spirit aperture, I can display this soul-stirring mark." Ren Qinglian murmured, and the soul-stirring mark formed by the condensed martial arts qi was absorbed more and more. More and more soul power began to become more and more solidified.

The last time Ren Qinglian temporarily practiced the secret art of ghosts in "The Nether Scripture" in order to deal with the three little ghosts sent by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but it was performed with the help of three temporarily opened up spiritual apertures. It's no different for a cultivator, but he is no longer limited to form when performing today, and can use the power of martial arts to perform Taoist secret techniques.

"Kung fu master, Qinglian, I didn't expect your martial arts cultivation to reach such a legendary level!" Yang Chan's beautiful eyes were shining brightly, and she was full of pride besides admiration.She came from a famous family, and her knowledge is naturally extraordinary. Although she didn't know what kind of spell Ren Qinglian was casting, she recognized at a glance that the power fluctuation of the imprint in the void was a spell commonly used by cultivators!
Ren Qinglian repeatedly said "it's a fluke", and in fact it was true.Although a martial artist in the realm of refining the void and the Dao has the will of martial arts in his true qi, he can use the will of martial arts to control his true qi to make all kinds of unimaginable changes, but if his true qi does not have the attribute of swallowing the sky, if he wants to It is still not easy to perform this secret technique of the ghost way perfectly. After all, the will of martial arts is too scattered, and the control of true energy is not comparable to the control of mana by the primordial spirit of a cultivator.

At this time, the Immortal Imprint not only contained the mystery of spells, but it was also a manifestation of Ren Qinglian's true energy that was devouring everything.

At the same time, more and more wandering ghosts seemed to smell the breath of living people, or were angered by Ren Qinglian's actions, and began to emerge from this mountain of bones.

Yang Chan's avatar is too weak, apart from occasionally sending out a few spells to intercept the fallen ghost's body, Ren Qinglian was fighting alone during the whole process.

Originally, this should be a battle of unequal strength, but Ren Qinglian deliberately tried to use the power of martial arts to cast those not-so-advanced spells in the Nether Scripture, but she has only been slowly resisting.

Yang Chan was still curious at first, but gradually became dull.However, the clever Bingxue quickly noticed something strange, pointed to the distance and said: "Qinglian, look, these ghosts seem to be manipulated by someone..."

Ren Qinglian froze for a moment, followed Yang Chan's gaze, and saw those ghosts moving in an orderly manner, like an army in the world.

"Beimang Baigu Mountain used to be the place of the Nether God Sect. After the Nether God Sect was wiped out by the underworld, the entire Baigu Mountain became a gathering place for ghost cultivators. Could it be that some powerful ghost kings and ghost masters have appeared now! "

"Ghost King?" Yang Chan looked curious.

"The ghost king in the underworld is probably as powerful as the heavenly immortals in the earth fairy world, and the ghost master is a ghost cultivator with the strength comparable to the golden immortal, or even the Daluo golden immortal!"

"There is such a powerful ghost cultivator!" Yang Chan was a little surprised. After all, most people's impression of the underworld stays above the underworld, thinking that it represents the whole underworld. Of the true immortals in the fairyland, only those ordinary little ghosts are real ghost cultivators.But thinking of the place name Ren Qinglian mentioned, Yang Chan began to wonder again: "There is Beiman Mountain in the Earth Immortal Realm, is there any connection between the two?"

Ren Qinglian nodded: "Chan'er is really smart. Beimang Mountain leads directly to the nether world, and it is connected to the Beimang Baigu Mountain Range..." No. 72 of the 70 blessed places of Taoism is in Beimang Mountain, but what ordinary people call Beiman The area of ​​Mang Mountain is very large, and most of the time, it is only known as a Fengshui cemetery. Over the past dynasties, there have been countless mausoleums of princes and generals on it. As the saying goes, "Beimang Mountain is full of old tombs of Luoyang people, with little idle soil."

Yang Chan rolled his eyes at him, then nodded, "So that's how it is. You know that in the Battle of Changping in Nanbuzhou, many of the soldiers who were murdered in Zhao State were full of resentment and cruelty. Fierce, forming the so-called military spirit, the six realms are incompatible, and the underworld is not acceptable. Under the leadership of one of the generals, these lonely ghosts forcibly invaded Beiman Mountain, and finally disappeared mysteriously. Could it be that they came through the passage of Beiman Mountain? To the underworld!"

"Those army souls in the Battle of Changping!"

A memory flashed in Ren Qinglian's mind. The Battle of Changping in this mythical world was even more tragic than in the memory of the previous life. It's also normal.

If the souls of ordinary creatures want to stay in the earth fairy world after death, they need to have a very strong spiritual will.In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the heroes competed for the throne. At that time, the soldiers from all over the world were all soldiers of hundreds of battles. Years of hard work had sharpened their willpower and made them extremely tenacious. In addition, those innocent soldiers in the Battle of Changping were filled with resentment after being murdered. Their souls were eroded by the killing breath and resentment on the battlefield, and became the so-called military souls. Soldiers stopped fighting. In the eyes of these military souls, they did not respect the saints of heaven and earth, and only had the fighting and killing intent before death in their hearts. .

According to Yang Chan's words, these army souls should have been summoned and attracted by the breath of the underworld, so they forcibly broke through the two-world passage of Beimang Mountain and came to Beimang Baigu Mountain.Army souls have a firm will to kill, and no one in the immortal world wants to mess with them, because not only is it difficult to kill, but there is no benefit at all, but in this underworld, it is ghosts who practice evil weapons. There are good materials, but at present, it seems that these military spirits did not fall into such a fate, but were refined into puppets.

"No wonder these ghosts are so hard to kill!" The ghosts all over the mountains and plains are quite powerful, even inferior to ordinary Jindan strongmen, but with Ren Qinglian's strength, they can't be completely crushed and killed, so they have to be swallowed up with the soul-stirring mark Refining is the only way to do it. Thinking about it now, he didn't get half of the memory of ghosts from the Immortal Imprint. There is an explanation for all this. The ghost puppet that came out.

Looking at the Immortal Imprint that was solidified and about to form a physical seal in the void, Ren Qinglian's heart moved: "If you continue to use the power of these army souls to temper the Immortal Imprint, this seal will be refined by me. An evil weapon!"

……

At the same time, there is a huge tomb below the Baigu Mountain in Beimang. At this moment, several tall ghosts are lying under the main hall of the tomb. There was a sound, but the ghosts lying on the ground stared at the two purple flames floating on the head of the cloak and trembled for a while.

"Tell me, what's going on? What happened to the outside world that made all of you run over at the same time!" Suddenly, the two groups of purple flames condensed into a face that exchanged virtual and real, and said indifferently.

"Reporting to the leader, there are two living people. At this moment, nearly one-third of the guards who are really wantonly killing the ghost tomb have been killed..."

"A living person? Could it be some kind of immortal master? Didn't you say that, don't do anything to those immortal and Buddhist masters..." Mang Shan's ancestor narrowed his eyes.

"I'm not a master of the immortal way. One of the immortal cultivators is only in the Nascent Soul realm, and the other looks like an ordinary human being." One of the ghosts said tremblingly.

Another person also said: "Master, I guess, they must not be able to survive in the underworld, so they have no choice but to hide in the underworld. Moreover, they are able to kill so many guards of the nether world, and what they are holding should be a treasure!"

"Treasure?" Two groups of purple flames jumped and said.

"Teacher, please take a look?" One of the ghosts said, and a jade talisman in his hand appeared the soul-absorbing seal that Ren Qinglian condensed with the true energy of martial arts, it looked like it was cast from black jade.

"Spirit Seal!"

"That's right, that's exactly the case. We all feel that this is a big deal, so we're here to report it to the leader."

The two flames under the cloak slowly condensed into one figure: "It's been a long time since I've been active, so I'll leave the matter of merging the innate immortal soul to me. I just happened to go out to meet this disciple of the God Sect, haha!"

……

On the mountain, Ren Qinglian wanted to see if she could really refine an evil weapon of her own with the help of the power of these army souls, and continued to stimulate the power of the Dementor Seal, frantically absorbing and refining it. those ghosts.

Just at this moment, a bolt of lightning rushed over.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Ren Qinglian protected Yang Chan, and sent out three strikes of sword energy, which collided with the electric light.

When I narrowed my eyes, I saw that it was a bronze spear.

The next moment, there was a sound of horse cries, and the owner of the spear appeared in the eyes of the two of them.

Dressed in armor, he seemed to be a killing god walking from an ancient battlefield, his eyes glowed with purple light, staring at Ren Qinglian firmly.

Yang Chan couldn't help but shouted: "It's the General of the Army Soul in the Battle of Changping! But his eyes..."

All the gods and Buddhas saw what happened back then. Yang Chan had seen the general who led the army souls into Beiman Mountain from some image talismans left behind by Houlian.

However, Ren Qinglian knew that this general of the Warring States Period had long been refined into a more powerful puppet, and the two purple flames flickering in his eyes were the soul fire of a certain ghost cultivator!

However, this purple soul fire seems to be the first time I have heard of it.

"Who are you?"

"Jie Jie, it's interesting, I'm actually a human warrior!" The general on horseback laughed strangely, "You can call me the King of Beimang Ghosts!"

"Beimang Ghost King?" Ren Qinglian thought in her heart. The memory of the three little ghosts sent by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to kill him did not mention such a character. Could it be that he rose up later.But if it is true as Yang Chan said, this person should have controlled these army souls for a very long time. It is impossible for those little ghosts not to have heard of such a powerful ghost king.
