The Demonic Taoist Priest Emerges from the Mountain

The golden light and shadow were indistinct.

All I know is that he is very burly.

He is about two meters tall.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is already considered very tall.

But it was no match for that giant demon.

This contrast has a huge visual impact.

Just when I was filled with worry.

The golden phantom moved.

He slowly raised his hand.

The golden runes instantly converged towards his palm.

The inverted bowl-shaped barrier collapsed instantly.

My heart skipped a beat at that moment.

I'm really scared.

Without this inverted barrier, if the illusory figure in front of me can't block it, I'm afraid I'll be smashed to pieces by those six giant hands.

Clearly, my worries were unnecessary.

After all the runes converged on the palm of the golden phantom.

A profound and mysterious sound resounded.

"break!"

The next instant, a burst of mysterious light emanated from the palm of the golden phantom.

A sword shimmering with a blue light slowly materialized, then swelled in the wind and pierced through the giant hand covering my head.

The sword continued its momentum, striking the giant demon's head directly after piercing its palm.

Moreover, the speed of the jets is getting faster and faster.

It happened almost in the blink of an eye.

The sword had pierced through the giant demon's head.

"Bang!"

A deep, muffled sound rang out.

The head of the giant demon exploded with a deafening roar.

"Snap!"

Above the sky, streaks of crimson lightning spread out like a spider web.

The chains engraved with golden runes on the giant demon suddenly contracted.

Amidst deafening roars.

The chains pulled back frantically.

I watched as the giant demon was slowly dragged into the ground.

Then it disappeared completely.

But that's not all.

The blue-green sword that was suspended in mid-air suddenly turned its blade.

It swiftly pierced the land from top to bottom where the giant demon was being dragged down.

"boom!"

Dust flew everywhere.

The ground trembled.

The sandstorm, which blotted out the sky, blocked all visibility.

When all the dust settles.

A large mountain came into view.

This mountain is very high and majestic.

Its shape is like a sword piercing the earth.

My brain was working at lightning speed.

I feel like I've seen this sword before.

After doing all this, the golden phantom in front of them began to slowly dissipate.

And this world is slowly collapsing.

At the very moment when everything turned to nothingness.

Suddenly, I remembered the name of that blue-green sword.

"The Seven-Star Green Sword!"

As soon as that sound fell, I sat up abruptly.

My body feels sticky.

A ray of sunlight fell on my blanket outside the window.

Outside, it was dawn!

I quickly touched my body.

They found me completely unharmed.

But when I turned to look at the head of the bed...

The Zhong Kui talisman that I had originally stuck on the headboard of my bed now has large scorch marks on its surface.

I quickly got up and heard a series of faint sounds. Looking down, I saw it was the [Corpse Blood Jade].

At this moment, the Corpse Blood Jade had also shattered completely.

I froze on the spot.

Her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

I survived! I survived my brush with death!

It feels so good to have survived a disaster.

At the same time, I quickly took out a piece of yellow silk from the drawer and carefully gathered up the shattered [Corpse Blood Jade] and the [Zhong Kui Talisman] covered in scorch marks.

Now I understand completely.

In the latter part of my dream, those hundred cavalrymen who had been slain a hundred times were transformed from this [Corpse Blood Jade].

It helped me ward off a hundred evil spirits.

The last golden phantom to appear was none other than Zhong Kui's avatar.

The reason I felt that the blue-light sword was familiar was that I was eventually able to call out its name.

It's because Master Qin has been worshipping Zhong Kui for many years.

In his words, he couldn't stand seeing his sanctimonious fellow disciples on Longhu Mountain trying to convert the souls of the dead with compassion, so he turned to cultivating the Ghost-Slaying Path.

From then on, he stopped worshipping the Three Pure Ones and instead worshipped only the image of Zhong Kui.

The Seven-Star Sword of Green Edge is Zhong Kui's magical weapon.

Ultimately, if it weren't for this [Zhong Kui Talisman], I might have already been killed by that giant evil spirit.

At the same time, I was amazed.

The Zhong Kui Talisman contains Qin Sanye's full-force attack.

His attack was incredibly powerful.

Based on such a powerful strike, it's no exaggeration for the people of Qingshan City to call Master Qin a living god.

After I gathered the Zhong Kui Talisman and the Corpse Blood Jade, I placed them on an altar.

He then lit three long incense sticks and bowed deeply.

These two things played a crucial role in my survival this time.

From now on, I will enshrine it to repay the life-saving grace.

I tidied up a bit.

I went downstairs.

It was mentioned in Master Qin's letter.

There is a [Ghost Control Array] in Guanshan Tower, which Ning Jinrou needs to activate.

I wonder what Ning Jinrou's situation is now.

When I stepped out of the stairwell, the scene before me took me by surprise.

At this moment, the main gate of Guanshanlou has been reduced to dust.

The long table and armchair, which were originally simply furnished, have been shattered into pieces.

As for those green plants that turned yellow and withered overnight.

The whole scene looked as if it had been violently demolished.

What worries me most is Ning Jinrou.

At this moment, Ning Jinrou was sitting cross-legged in the spot where the long table should have been placed.

There were three rings of talisman ash around her.

She sat right in the center of the talisman.

That cool, pretty face was completely devoid of color.

I rushed to her side and reached out to check her breath.

"I'm not dead!"

Just at this time.

Ning Jinrou suddenly spoke up.

It startled me.

As the words fell.

Ning Jinrou slowly opened her eyes.

She looked very weak.

However, his words were quite forceful.

"It's good that you're still alive, kid."

After saying that, she looked at the ashes of the talisman scattered all over the ground with a pained expression.

"That's my savings of three years!"

Her heartache was genuine.

Guanshanlou was bustling with activity last night.

There were no fewer than a hundred evil spirits on the entire first floor.

They were desperately trying to break through the [Ghost Control Formation].

This offensive was quite fierce.

Even with Ning Jinrou in charge of the [Ghost Control Formation], it didn't last long.

In the middle of the night, the [Ghost Control Formation] was broken.

In order to allow me to survive.

Ning Jinrou emptied her family's savings.

They used up almost all the talismans.

That's how they managed to hold on until dawn.

OK.

If Ning Jinrou hadn't fought desperately against those evil spirits downstairs last night...

I can imagine what kind of crisis will occur in the latter part of my dream.

I looked at Ning Jinrou with gratitude.

He said sincerely, "Thank you."

Ning Jinrou's gaze remained fixed on the ashes of the talismans scattered on the ground.

Her lips twitched a few times.

"Is a simple 'thank you' all it takes?"

She looked up at me.

I was speechless for a moment, scratched the back of my head, and said, "Or should I offer myself to you?"
