It's time to become a fairy.

The spirit boat sailed slowly, but after an unknown amount of time, it still hadn't reached the Demon Suppression Division. Ye Qingge raised an eyebrow, glanced at the symbol on the back of her hand, and sensed something was amiss.

Chapter 78 Citywide Alert, The Three Living Gods

The streets were quiet, the scenery outside the window unchanging. As we sped along, everything rushed past. The crimson moonlight made it difficult to discern the objects outside the window. Only the ever-sticky, cold air gave us a familiar feeling.

At first, Ye Qingge was preoccupied with her own affairs and didn't realize that something was wrong, but after several tens of minutes of not leaving the wealthy area, something was amiss!

"I was attacked by ghosts as soon as I stepped out... Have ghosts become so brazen and numerous? No wonder it's called the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts!"

By activating the divine power within her body and gathering spiritual energy in her eyes, Ye Qingge finally understood the whole story.

In the spirit boat, the driver sat in the front left seat, and Ye Qingge sat in the back left seat. On the spirit boat, which originally looked normal, from the perspective of the god inside her body, a ghost was sitting to the right of the driver at some unknown time.

This was a woman dressed in a light red gauze dress, with long, flowing hair that covered her face. Judging from the aura emanating from her, she had reached the mid-stage of the Spiritual Awareness Realm. A faint yin energy emanated from her, of much higher quality than other yin spirits of the same level, and she even had the potential to become a vengeful ghost. Once the transformation was complete, her light red gauze dress would completely turn scarlet!

The appearance of a Yin spirit of this level would have been impossible for a high-ranking driver to ignore, let alone escape the perception of Ye Qingge, whose divine strength far surpassed that of other cultivators of the same level.

Under the blood moon, this Yin spirit, who was only at the Spiritual Awareness Realm, actually evaded the two people's senses. If Ye Qingge hadn't noticed the abnormality and activated the divine power within her body, she wouldn't have been able to detect it at all and would have been caught off guard!

Her eyes turned cold, and she became even more wary of the blood moon caused by the Misty Demon Sect. She reached out and pointed forward.

With the burst of Fire Element Divine Power, combined with the divine power of Heavenly God Transformation, a single finger was pointed out. Before the Yin Soul could even resist, it only managed to let out a sharp scream before being scorched to its core by the intense fire. In less than two breaths, only a Yin Pearl remained, falling onto the passenger seat.

The surrounding scenery rippled outwards like water, and the bright lights and greenery of the streets vanished abruptly, transforming into a quiet suburb. The streetlights were dim, and there were almost no pedestrians. Combined with the chilly atmosphere, it looked even more terrifying.

A piercing alarm sounded as the illusion dissipated, its penetrating power echoing throughout the city. According to Ye Qingge's knowledge, such a sound only rang out when demonic beasts attacked the city, and it hadn't been heard for over a hundred years.

Whenever this sound is heard, it means that the whole city has stopped work and school, and that the most critical moment has arrived. All residents of the city need to work together to overcome the difficulties and fight against the disaster.

Ye Qingge's expression became even more solemn, but before she could compose herself...

bang

A sharp screech of brakes sounded as the massive spirit boat cut through the air with a loud bang, followed by the sound of it hitting a heavy object.

Ye Qingge looked up and saw an old man in front of her who had been knocked down and thrown several meters away. The illusion in front of her dissipated, and the senior member acting as the driver in the driver's seat was too late to brake and directly knocked the old man away.

"This……"

The senior member gaped, stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting such a situation to occur.

However, this was only the beginning. What horrified him even more was that the old man, with his hands on the ground, was still crawling forward. His legs seemed to have lost their ability to move. Covered in blood, he crawled toward the spirit boat, muttering weak words.

Ye Qingge glanced at the symbols on the back of her hand, sneered, and then formed hand seals, unleashing the Five Elements Divine Power.

Under the trees on both sides of the road, the grass suddenly grew rapidly, turning into countless vines that wrapped around the old man. The old man seemed to sense the threat, and his figure suddenly climbed up from the ground, finally emitting a "heh heh" sound that was not something a human could make. He changed his previous climbing and suddenly crashed into the spirit boat.

"A Yin spirit in the late stage of Divine Awakening, after this collision, has at least gained strength comparable to the Spiritual Awareness Realm... How many more Yin spirits does the Misty Demon Sect have left, including their backup plans and the Yin spirits they created?"

Ye Qingge frowned, and a chill couldn't help but rise in her heart.

The old man ultimately failed to hit the spirit boat. At the last moment, countless vines tightly bound its limbs, entwining the old man's spirit body part by inch upwards. Finally, with a sudden twist, only a single spirit bead remained in place.

The whole process took only a few breaths before the driver realized what was happening. He quickly used the city navigation on the spirit boat to determine his location and set off again towards the Demon Suppression Division branch in the east of the city.

Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Qingge opened the window of the spirit boat, and the vines rolled up the Yin Pearl and threw it into the window. Ye Qingge accurately used it and put it into the container.

She opened her personal crystal brain, and only half an hour had passed since she set off. It seemed that the ghosts had affected not only her sense of space, but also her sense of time.

There was still a message from Yan Yishuang on her personal crystal brain. Ye Qingge opened it, replied to the message, and then put the personal crystal brain away to focus on the situation around her.

More than ten minutes later

East City Demon Suppression Division

As they stepped off the spirit boat, the driver's face turned deathly pale, and even Ye Qingge's expression became more solemn than ever before.

In just over ten minutes, they encountered as many as seventeen ghosts. The streets in the wealthy area were better, as members of the Demon Suppression Division were often on the move, and many places were the residences of Danhai Realm cultivators. With regular cleanup, the number of ghosts was not large. The farther away from the wealthy area, the more ghosts there were, and the more bizarre their appearances became!

Ningcheng, a city that never sleeps with a population of over ten million, seemed to have become a ghost town at this moment, with eerie spirits everywhere!

Each of the spirits strengthened by the Crimson Moon received a boost to varying degrees, and even high-ranking members like the driver were not immune to its effects.

Upon arriving at the Demon Suppression Division, Yan Yishuang was already waiting in the hall, accompanied by four senior members and eight intermediate members.

Upon seeing Ye Qingge's arrival, she breathed a sigh of relief. After confirming that Ye Qingge was alright and that Yan Ye'an was in good condition, she took out a badge and handed it to Ye Qingge, saying solemnly, "Congratulations, you have officially passed the review and become the second elite senior member of my East City Demon Suppression Division, an outer disciple of the Canghui Sect, replacing Lin Yushu's original position."

Ye Qingge raised an eyebrow, took the badge, and asked, "So fast?"

"In urgent situations, one must act expediently; you've seen the current situation."

Yan Yishuang said succinctly, "To make a long story short, the speed at which the Misty Demon Sect acted this time exceeded our expectations. We originally thought they would not make a move for at least three days. The planned extermination was originally scheduled for tomorrow night, after Feng Yumeng arrived, but they have already revealed their trump card today."

"This blood moon will last for three days. With each passing day, the strength of the Yin spirits will increase, amplified under the blood moon. Right now, they are at their weakest. On the third day, the hidden trump card of the Misty Demon Sect, the fierce ghost, will officially erupt. With the blessing of the blood moon, it will even possess the strength of a Ghost King in the Central Court Realm."

"The Ghost Kings of the Central Court Realm, with the help of countless others, have been amplified, expanding their strength from Divine Breath to Core Formation and even to the level of Sea Transformation Realm Fiends. Although they cannot compare to the Hundred Ghost Parade caused by the hundreds of Ghost Kings of the Central Court Realm in the history of the Misty Demon Sect, they are still an unbearable burden for the situation in Ning City!"

As she spoke, she took out a map: "These are the areas that each branch of the East City is responsible for. Our East City branch has one special-grade personnel and two elite senior members. One of them has already been sent by me to solve the problem of the Yin spirits in the East City. What you will be responsible for is to eliminate these ordinary Misty Demon Sect strongholds in the East City."

"There are a total of seventeen strongholds in the east of the city. I will personally oversee the five high-level ones, and you will be responsible for the other twelve. Not every stronghold has disciples of the Misty Demon Sect. Your task is to collect information from them, destroy the strongholds, and kill as many Misty Demon Sect members as possible. You must eliminate at least five strongholds by 10:00 AM tomorrow!"

"Feng Yumeng will arrive in Ningcheng after 10 o'clock. You are responsible for welcoming Feng Yumeng. At that time, all actions will be under Feng Yumeng's command!"

Ye Qingge asked in surprise, "Under Feng Yumeng's command?"

Yan Yishuang nodded and said, "No one in the city is more familiar with dealing with the Ghost King than Feng Yumeng. Feng Yumeng once participated in the siege of the Ghost King!"

Ye Qingge looked surprised. From Yan Yishuang's description, those who could be called Ghost Kings were all beings in the Central Court Realm, comparable to Yan Ye'an's father, Yan Xiuxian.

Even now, Feng Yumeng is only at the Nascent Soul stage, far from being a Ghost King. It's impossible for Ningcheng's higher-ups to be so cautious just because of her experience. Only if she has made unique contributions during the Ghost King's siege could they be so concerned.

After describing the mission details to Ye Qingge several more times, Yan Yishuang solemnly said, "The rewards from the last mission and the supplies for this mission have been prepared by the logistics department. Go and collect everything. Remember... survive!"

Yan Yishuang emphasized the last three words. Most of Ningcheng's strength had been drawn away by the Canghui Sect. Facing the sudden outbreak of the Piaomiao Demon Sect, no one dared to say that they were 100% safe.

Ye Qingge nodded, and Yan Yishuang patted Ye Qingge on the shoulder, said nothing more, and left.

"Let's go."

Ye Qingge glanced at the crowd behind her, said nothing, and led them to the logistics department. After collecting the supplies and distributing the mission items to everyone, they briefly discussed the mission plan, chose the first location, and then boarded four spirit boats to head towards it.

brush

The spirit boat floated in mid-air, accelerated in an instant, and sped away.

Outside the window of the Lingzhou boat, the night was deep, and it had unknowingly reached eleven o'clock.

Under the crimson moonlight, the already cold and damp air became even more sticky, to the point of being uncomfortable. Fortunately, Ye Qingge was no ordinary person. She quietly activated the first level of the Heavenly God Transformation. With the surge of divine power, she easily purified the abnormality in the air, and the environment inside the spirit boat improved a lot, which also nourished the righteous energy within her body.

She had a feeling that, after this period of natural cultivation through the Heavenly Transformation, her Righteous Qi was about to move from the beginner stage to the minor completion stage, and she would truly be able to use it.

"I should be able to break through tonight."

Touching her smooth chin, Ye Qingge kept a close eye on the outside world while reflecting on her own strength.

Just then, a peculiar sensation, accompanied by a stinging pain, came from the back of her hand. Her pupils suddenly contracted, and she felt as if her heart had been squeezed hard, with a suffocating feeling that made it hard to breathe.

Barely suppressing the strange feeling, Ye Qingge looked at the back of her right hand. The symbols there emitted an unusual color, unlike the scarlet red of encountering a vengeful ghost or the pale gold of places rich in spiritual energy. This time, it was pure black.

The moment she locked eyes with the symbol, everything before her gradually blurred, and the terrifying presence she had previously seen using magic reappeared before her. Unlike last time, this presence before Ye Qingge was more realistic, as if the blurry image had suddenly been transformed into high definition, with countless details unfolding before her eyes.

This being held a God-Slaying Whip and wore a jet-black robe with pale gold patterns adorning it, giving it a sacred and solemn appearance. Its expression was dignified and imposing. What caught Ye Qingge's attention even more was the being's eyes, which seemed to contain the myriad things in the starry sky, captivating all who beheld them.

This being seemed to have suffered some kind of injury, and its figure staggered toward Ye Qingge. Strands of divine power pierced through the void and connected with the symbol on the back of her hand, thus pinpointing her location.

Compared to last time, Ye Qingge held on for one more second before the scene in front of her suddenly vanished, and she returned to reality.

Gasping for breath, her back drenched in cold sweat, Ye Qingge recalled the appearance of that terrifying being from just moments before, her mind racing: "The God-Slaying Whip, that black robe, or rather, the divine robe, isn't that the appearance of the Yin God among the Three Gods!"

Glancing at the symbol on the back of her right hand, her thoughts drifted back to the first time she encountered the ghost.

At that time, it had only been a day since Su Qing'er completed the initial tasks of the system, and her job change had just begun. After completing the first task, she felt that something was wrong with the statues of the three gods. After completing the Empress's task again, she saw the first Yin spirit among the Yin gods.

Stimulated by the presence of the first ghost, she was able to awaken that spark of spiritual light and the divine power within her. The symbol on the back of her right hand also originated from the changes brought about by the death of the first ghost.

"I used to think it was just because that ghost was special, but now it seems that the Yin God among the three gods had been watching me all along. That ghost was just an insignificant being responsible for transmitting location symbols. The Yin God is the one who controls souls, so it's not surprising that he would use it to achieve his goal."

"The Yin spirit was probably not fully awakened before. After some unknown stimulation, or rather, my previous positioning, the Yin spirit began to awaken. Now it is probably fully awakened and is coming towards me with the help of the symbol's positioning!"

"But... what could I possibly do to make a being like the Yin God send out a distress signal? Based on my estimation, a being like the Yin God is at least at the Dao Realm level or higher in the world of the beings it possesses."

"Since the Yin spirits have already been revived, will the other two deities who control rain and life among the three gods also be revived?"

Countless past memories flooded back, and Ye Qingge slowly pieced together the whole story, while new doubts arose at the same time.

She had initially thought it was just a folk deity, but it turned out to be real and had even sent her a distress signal. Now that it had been revived, it was using location tracking to attack her. What did she possess that even the gods needed? Would the other two gods also be revived...?

Countless distracting thoughts swirled in Ye Qingge's mind. Before she could regain her composure, the spirit boat suddenly came to an abrupt halt.

At the same time, the driver's slightly nervous voice came from ahead: "Captain Ye, we've arrived."

"I see."

Using the Primordial Breathing Technique, Ye Qingge suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her mind and stepped off the spirit boat.

She glanced at the symbol on the back of her hand. The symbol was glowing and its color was different from any time before. This was a sign that her location had been activated. With this symbol, she had established a mysterious relationship with the Yin God, one of the three legendary gods. She could even use the symbol to call upon a portion of the Yin God's power!

"Let me see what kind of abilities the legendary Yin God really has!"

A hint of curiosity flashed in Ye Qingge's eyes. With a slight thought, she activated the power of the symbols.

An invisible force spread out, and Ye Qingge suddenly saw a picture of the entire building in front of her and the ghosts in it in her mind. Or, to be more precise, it was through the countless ghosts in this place that the image of the entire building was formed in her mind.

Before them was a small villa near the suburbs. According to the Yin God's perception, there were twenty-three Yin spirits inside, as well as two members of the Misty Demon Sect.

"We ran into members of the Misty Demon Sect on our very first mission. This is like winning the lottery!"

Behind him, the driver and several other senior and intermediate members disembarked from the spirit boat. The driver cautiously approached Ye Qingge, who was deep in thought, and asked, "Captain Ye, what do we do next?"

Ye Qingge revealed a mysterious smile: "Split into two teams. Two senior members and one intermediate member will block all exits. You, and the other two, will attack me head-on!"

The driver who had previously taken Ye Qingge to the East City branch was also assigned to Ye Qingge by Yan Yishuang, so this time the team had five senior members besides Ye Qingge.

The driver was stunned: "Could this plan be...?"

He had intended to subtly remind Ye Qingge that the plan was too rudimentary, but Ye Qingge waved her hand dismissively: "Now, execute the order!"

The driver suddenly felt uneasy. The reliable image Ye Qingge had built up on the way had completely collapsed, and he began to worry that something might go wrong with this operation.

This worry vanished as the three stormed the villa.

Ye Qingge took the lead, walking at the very front, as if she knew everything inside the villa. She easily arrived at a hidden door in the villa and met the two members of the Misty Demon Sect who were hiding there.

The two members, a man and a woman, were disheveled and exhausted, their clothes disheveled, and they were easily subdued and captured by the three men with almost no power to resist.

The driver and the other two senior members exchanged strange glances. Only Ye Qingge touched the symbol on the back of her hand and realized why the two had become like this.
