Starting with the Corpse-Eating Worm, he worked his way up to become the Left-Winged Immortal Lord.

This moment.

Many thoughts flashed before my eyes.

help?

Or not to help?

If he helps, he will expose his own strength, and Chen Ye will definitely regard him as the biggest threat afterward.

But if we don't help, Li Fu's life may be in danger.

If he hadn't seen it, it wouldn't have been so bad, but watching Li Fu die right before his eyes was something he really couldn't do, and he couldn't get over that mental hurdle.

After weighing the options, Gu Qing made a decision based on her heart.

help!

And it's not simply about using hollow stag beetles to help.

This time, he'll also make an appearance.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing immediately dispelled his concealment.

However, as soon as they stepped out of the house, several vengeful ghosts, attracted by the scent of living people, pounced on them, only to be torn apart by the Sky-Shattering Stag Beetles in the blink of an eye.

at the same time.

Li Fu was once again thrown back by the ghostly hand. His hands, which were gripping the magical artifact, were torn apart by the immense force, and blood kept dripping down his face.

At that very moment, Li Fu recognized the person who had made the move. "You're Ghost Hand Li, the one wanted by the Sanyin Temple in Hongye County!"

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to know my name... I've killed no fewer than five Qi Refining Level 3 cultivators, and you're the sixth!" Ghost Hand Li sneered, his veins bulging as he disappeared into the darkness, reappearing behind Li Fu in the blink of an eye, giving Li Fu no time to defend himself or use talismans for protection.

Li Fu's mind went blank for a moment. He could only subconsciously turn around, raise the magic weapon, and protect it in front of his chest, placing his hope of survival in a miracle.

But at that very moment, a grayish-white light streaked across the night sky and pierced into the ghost hand as it struck Li Fu.

boom--

With a single blow, the ghost hand shattered.

Li Fu was also thrown several feet away.

Ghost Hand Li's expression changed slightly. He stared intently ahead, unable to discern the grayish-white object, but he immediately grabbed a miscellaneous martial arts practitioner beside him. Using the practitioner as a human shield, he threw him directly at the incoming object.

"Old Li!"

The man cried out in alarm, but before he could regain his balance, his forehead was pierced through, and his life force began to dissipate instantly.

"What the hell is that?"

Ghost Hand Li was terrified; his Yin Talisman surged, protecting his entire body.

The other three exchanged glances, then tossed out several talismans and prepared to leap over the wall without hesitation.

But as soon as they jumped up, all three were pierced through at the same time, and the shield-shaped magic weapon that one of them was protecting in front of his chest was also shattered on the spot.

Seeing this, Ghost Hand Li was horrified.

They immediately planned to take advantage of the three men's deaths to escape.

But Li Fu and his three companions, realizing what was happening, immediately surrounded him, giving him no chance to escape.

Left with no other option, Ghost Hand Li had to switch from offense to defense.

Faced with the attack of four people, he could only watch helplessly as his defenses were gradually broken down, but he did not despair.

Because there are still many miscellaneous and unorthodox schools in the temple at this time.

Someone will eventually come when they hear it.

That would be his chance to escape.

Thinking of this, he quickly took out a first-tier protective ghost head artifact, inserted his five fingers into it, and more than a dozen pale white skulls flew out, circulating around him and blocking all of Li Fu and the others' attacks. "This ghost head was made by sacrificing a hundred people with blood. You are still too green to break through it..."

The words came to an abrupt halt.

A grayish-white light swept across the sky once more.

Ghost Hand Li watched helplessly as his strongest defensive Yin weapon was pierced and torn apart like a pancake, and the words he was about to say froze completely.

At that moment, he also saw what was coming.

An insect!

A worm the size of a thumb, covered in sharp spiky insects!

"What the hell is that...?"

The words fell.

Ghost Hand Li looked down and saw that the ghost head and genitals had shattered and fallen to the ground.

Blood was gushing from his chest, staining the area crimson in an instant and quickly taking away most of his life force.

"My genitals..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Ghost Hand Li collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, Li Fu and the other three looked at each other, completely bewildered.

Just then, Gu Qing's faint voice rang out from the courtyard gate.

"Master Li, are you alright?"

Li Fu turned around and saw Gu Qing, her brows furrowed, weakly walk into the courtyard, holding a urn-shaped Yin artifact in her hands. The artifact that had killed three Qi Refining Level 3 cultivators flew into the urn at that moment.

"Gu Qing?"

Li Fu looked bewildered, but quickly ran to Gu Qing's side and helped her up.

He looked at the genitals, then at Gu Qing, whose face was pale, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The thing that just killed four people was actually Gu Qing's insect!

Are you alright?

Li Fu hurriedly asked.

Gu Qing delivered the prepared explanation: "I almost got devoured by the alien insect that my master gave me when I tried to forcibly control it."

Upon hearing this, Li Fu was both shocked and delighted, because Gu Qing had already told him about Lu Xingzhi sending the insects.

But he didn't expect that Uncle Lu would give Gu Qing such a powerful insect.

The most terrifying thing is that Gu Qing was able to control his opponent while still at the first level of Qi Refining, and used it to kill four people in a row.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, you have truly given me a wonderful surprise today and saved my life." Li Fu felt a surge of gratitude and was now completely convinced that Gu Qing was a person who would repay kindness.

Although he was not an insect tamer, he knew the consequences of forcibly controlling alien insects.

Once the alien insects turn against their master, they can devour him.

If anything goes wrong today, it won't be those four people who die, but Gu Qing himself.

Upon seeing this, the other three immediately realized who the person in front of them was.

The three exchanged a glance and quickly walked up to Gu Qing, raising their hands in a gesture of respect, even the eldest cultivator did so.

The Taoist priest bowed to the young Taoist.

It has never happened at Wufeng Temple.

But it happened today!

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Gu!"

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

The way the group addressed Gu Qing changed to how they addressed each other as fellow comrades.

However, after expressing their gratitude, the three did not linger and went to provide assistance elsewhere, leaving only Li Fu to support Gu Qing.

"Don't be so stubborn next time!" Li Fu helped Gu Qing sit down and took out a piece of food to put into Gu Qing's mouth.

Gu Qing grinned and said, "You're my benefactor. If I had to do it again, I would still choose to do it this way..."

"You."

Li Fu looked at Gu Qing, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

In the treacherous and exploitative world of cultivation, someone like Gu Qing is truly a rare find.

Just as Li Fu was lost in thought, the third-tier Sword-Sweeping Talisman failed to break through the Hidden Yin Tortoise Shell Formation under the vision of the Corpse-Eating Insects.

Even with the help of five or six cultivators at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, it still wouldn't work.

Lu Xingzhi, under the terrifying strain, was no longer able to use the third-tier Sword Sweeping Talisman.

The golden sword transformed into a talisman, returning to Lu Xingzhi's hand.

Wufeng Temple has completely lost hope of breaking through the Hidden Yin Tortoise Shell Formation.

The backlash from prolonged use of the third-tier talisman caused Lu Xingzhi to shudder, almost falling out of the magic artifact.

"Go back and deal with the scoundrels at Wufeng Temple. I and Daoist Qiuyue will stay here and guard." After saying this, Lu Xingzhi ate several pills of worry to quickly replenish his lost magical power.

Daoist Qiuyue immediately understood and added, "After we've resolved this, we'll immediately summon all the cultivators in Changping County to Fufeng Forest. Since we can't break the formation, let's surround Fufeng Forest and wait for him to come out!"

"yes!"

"clear!"

Ding Xian and the others nodded and left.

Just after they left, Gu Qing quietly watched Fu Fenglin through the Corpse-Eating Worm, and a feeling arose in his heart.

Deng Hui might not come out!

To be precise, Deng Hui definitely had a way to escape unscathed, after all, he had already taken the entire Wufeng Temple into account.

How could they not arrange an escape route?

But it was impossible for Deng to just walk out of the formation like that.

Then there's only one way.

"Underground!"

Gu Qing thought to himself, his brows furrowing.
