"I heard my master say that ghosts are at their weakest within the first seven days after they are formed. If you can find their remains and burn them, you can destroy them."

"This is also the only way for martial artists who have not yet reached the Divine Fire Realm to fight against ghosts."

Wang Lie sighed, "But the problem now is that we don't know when this ghost was born, nor do we know where its remains are!"

Jiang Chuan's heart skipped a beat. If that ghost was really transformed from those bear cubs, their remains must still be in that cave!

Shen San Niang also seemed to realize something and immediately turned to look at him.

Jiang Chuan realized he couldn't hide it any longer.

He readily admitted, "I might know where the ghost's remains are..."

He then briefly recounted the events at Bai Niu Mountain.

Wang Lie's expression changed repeatedly.

Only then did he realize that the expert who had been hiding in the shadows that day was none other than the hunter in front of him!

His chest heaved, clearly indicating he was extremely angry.

He and the black bear both suffered heavy losses.

result.

Jiang Chuan managed to snatch them all up!

But Wang Lie didn't react in the end; right now, saving his life was the priority!

"I'll go back to White Ox Mountain with you and burn that ghost's remains!"

"The more people it kills, the stronger it becomes. Once its demon realm is fully formed, it will be able to hide its own remains inside."

"By then, we'll really be doomed!"

Jiang Chuan did not hesitate:

"good!"

But the two had not yet set off.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out outside.

The group quickly went outside.

However, the caravan's temporary camp was in complete chaos, with wagons overturned and goods scattered all over the ground.

The guys are fighting a group of "people".

"A ghost! A ghost!"

Some people were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, their legs trembling uncontrollably, and they even forgot to run.

Those were a group of moving dead people!

They have no skin, their faces are covered in blood and gore.

They all moved stiffly.

It was wobbling and swaying.

Their offensive was incredibly fierce!

One of the men raised his knife and slashed at it, the blade penetrating deep into the shoulder, but the thing didn't even flinch.

The wound visibly closed up.

Their methods of attack are extremely terrifying.

The moment those hands touch a living person, they can tear off the entire face, skin and flesh!

The man covered his face, rolled on the ground, and screamed inconsolably.

Blood spurted from between his fingers.

In the blink of an eye, the caravan had lost several people!

Wang Lie's expression changed.

"It's a ghost slave!"

"Those killed by demons become servants of demons, possessing a portion of their power!"

"These things are very difficult to eliminate; only by completely destroying their bodies can we prevent them from regenerating!"

Seeing her fellow workers killed or wounded, Shen San Niang's eyes turned red. She drew a soft whip and was the first to rush forward.

The whip, like a snake, coiled around the leg of a ghost slave and yanked him sharply.

They pulled him to the ground.

But the ghost slave suddenly sprang to his feet!

She shouted, "Help!"

Jiang Chuan immediately joined the battle, wielding his Crimson Pattern sword and cleaving the head of a ghost slave in two with a single strike.

But the ghost slave was completely unaffected; its head, split in two, quickly closed up again!

This damn thing!

Jiang Chuan cursed inwardly.

Since it can't be killed,

Then let's immobilize them!

He remembered Wang Lie's words and swung his sword again.

With flashes of light, relying on the sharpness of the crimson blade, he directly severed the limbs of the ghost slave.

The demon slave, who had been shaved into a human stick, lay on the ground, still twitching and writhing.

However, the recovery speed has slowed down significantly.

The threat level has also decreased by more than half.

but,

Ultimately, he can't be killed!

After Jiang Chuan dismembered another ghost servant, he shouted to Shen San Niang, "These ghostly things are unkillable! Let's retreat to a safe place!"

Wang Lie immediately replied, "Go to Chun Jing Lou! Chun Jing Lou houses a powerful talisman that can ward off evil spirits and keep these ghost servants away!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but glance at him.

What kind of place is Chunjing Tower?

He knew it all too well.

That was the prison the Wang family used to hold abducted women!

Since the Wang family had already placed talismans to ward off evil spirits in the building, does that mean they already knew that there was a chance that people would become ghosts after they died?

Moreover, they were prepared in advance?!

The thought flashed through my mind.

Jiang Chuan, however, did not dwell on the matter with Wang Lie.

He dismembered another ghost slave who pounced on him, then turned back to the inn to pick up Liu Yue'e.

"Ogawa! What's that outside?!"

Liu Yue'e was in a panic.

"Don't be afraid, come with me."

Jiang Chuan grabbed her and shielded her behind him.

Liu Yue'e was terrified and ran all the way, not daring to fall behind.

The caravan fought and retreated, heading straight for Chun Jing Lou.

Along the way, two more corpses were left behind.

Fortunately, the talisman was indeed very effective.

The ghost servants chased after them to the entrance of Chun Jing Lou and, as expected, they all stopped!

Jiang Chuan saw with his own eyes that a ghost servant's hand had already touched the door frame.

The moment they touched, a wisp of blue smoke rose from his hand.

The ghost slave screamed and shrank back.

A series of bloodied and mangled faces hovered outside the door, but none dared to cross the line.

He found Wang Lie and said, "The talismans in the building can stop the ghost servants from getting close, but what if it's the real ghost!?"

Wang Lie was already seriously injured.

After a series of battles, his wounds aggravated his pain.

At this moment, he wiped away his sweat, his eyes turning sinister, and said, "As long as that ghost hasn't fully grown, we can hold it off, but it will also accelerate the depletion of the talisman's power!"

"This talisman's power was replenished last year; it should last for two or three days without any problem!"

Jiang Chuan nodded solemnly.

In no time at all.

The caravan members gradually settled into Chun Jing Lou.

As for the girls and guests in the building, they all ran away after the incident last night, leaving only empty tables and chairs.

Shen San Niang counted the number of people, her eyes red-rimmed.

More than a dozen lives were lost in an instant; they were all her long-time partners who had followed her all over the country for many years.

But she knew it better than anyone else.

If this ghost can't be dealt with.

Not to mention those dozen or so people, all of them have to stay here forever!

Shen Sanniang said, "What are we waiting for? I'll go with you. We must take care of that ghost today!"

After resting for a while, Wang Lie said, "That ghost has killed quite a few people today. Neither you nor I know how much it has grown."

"If we can't burn its remains today, our chances will be even slimmer overnight!"

Jiang Chuan looked at the wounds on his body that were bleeding.

He frowned and asked, "Can you handle it?"

"Even if you can't hold on, you have to!"

Wang Lie took a deep breath: "It's better than dying here without knowing why!"

Jiang Chuan looked at Shen San Niang: "Wang Lie and I will go burn the remains, so you don't need to go. You only have one chance to replenish your blood, and your weapon isn't good for killing; it can't even hurt the ghost slaves. It's better to stay here to avoid unrest among the people!"

"Can……"

Shen San Niang's expression changed, and she was about to say something when Jiang Chuan interrupted her: "Does the caravan have any horses that can move? Prepare two for us!"
