From their brief and concise words, I understood.
They were coming to this Jiang Huang City!
Why are they coming?
Was it because Liu Zihu was at home, and the information about the arrest by Liandao Monastery fell into his ears?
Or because there's a secret of Tian Shou Tao Yuan, the Master's Spring, that is to be made public?
Or, both of them?
Since the Taoist temples in Jiang Huang City were already gathering to deal with Tian Shou Tao Yuan, had someone sent an invitation to the Liu family from Qiang people?
My thoughts were in a whirl.
For a moment, Tian Shou Tao Ren was silent!
In the next second, I felt a coldness, being locked by qi again!
Through the dense forest, it felt as if I was being stared at by Tian Shou Tao Ren!
Even the silk thread on her forehead also secreted a thin sweat, expressing her extreme surprise.
The laughter, suddenly appeared from Tian Shou Tao Ren!
From normal laughter, it transformed into a constant, roaring laugh!
From peaceful and appreciative, it transformed into sharp, almost some excitement!
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good, good!"
Tian Shou Tao Ren said three times in succession.
His hand abruptly closed, and the applause resounded with a crackling sound.
The sound in it carries unprecedented killing intent!
Just like when a person is turned in circles and then, even though they believe they know the truth, that truth turns out to be a lie!
At this moment, revealing all the lies, Tian Shou Tao Ren's anger surged like an overwhelming tide!
He turned around abruptly, facing the four people behind me.
"Good, I'll take your lives first! Quench the fury burning in my heart!"
Tian Shou Tao Ren's body suddenly leaned forward, and he dived forward as if attacking!
Logically speaking, a Taoist practitioner at this level shouldn't need to engage in close combat.
In a blink, the situation changed abruptly!
A person appeared beside Tian Shou Tao Ren!
No, it wasn't a person, but a ghost.
A female ghost!
A svelte and enchanting figure, a ghost that makes one unable to resist taking a second glance.
The dreadful ghost Chasuo, which was kept and nurtured in the outdoor mausoleum of Tianshou Monastery.
In the next second, another sudden change occurred!
Tian Shou Tao Ren's body was covered with an unknown number of heads, as they forcefully pushed outwards!
Those heads looked extremely ferocious and evil. After emerging, they madly rushed towards the four Taoists at the foot of the mountain!
I immediately recognized them. Those ghosts were Shoushen'er.
At the time, when I used lightning to strike Tian Shou Tao Ren, I wanted to take advantage of his illness to kill him. However, a large number of Shoushen ghosts emerged from the room and covered Tian Shou Tao Ren, preventing me from making a move.
In a blink, Tian Shou Tao Ren went from being alone to surrounded by countless ghosts, making it almost impossible to determine where he was!
I was filled with terror in my heart. Shoushen'er was no ordinary ghost. If those four Lius' Taoists weren't careful, they would surely fall victim. Let alone the mix of Chasuo and Tian Shou Tao Ren!
Gasping for breath, I forced myself to compose, stood up, and ran towards the forest outside!
"Brother..." Si Yane was slightly anxious, calling me out.
I instantly understood Si Yane's intention. She wanted to sit back and watch the conflict unfold.
But if Tian Shou Tao Ren kills these four Liu family members, we will all die as well.
Therefore, I didn't stop!
As I burst out of the forest, I exerted all my qi and roared, "Shoushen can control movement, Chasuo devours human flesh, and when they face each other, they lose their ability to move!"
These two details were observed by me earlier.
But when Song Zhong was bitten, there was no reaction after that.
Shoushen'er was something I personally experienced!
The multitude of ghostly figures had not yet fully approached the four Liu family Taoists. It seemed that they themselves also wanted to engage in close combat!
However, in the next instant, the Taoist with a face veil stepped forward suddenly.
He unleashed several incense shadows from his body, followed by a whirl of cloth.
The slightly aged yet resolute sound of his incantation echoed through the mountains.
"Qian Yuan Hen Li Zhen, Zhenfa Li Yu Shen, Neng Jì Zhì Zhái Shì, Yīn Yáng Miào Yǒu Líng! Mì jué Sì Shéntōng! Zhì Líng Wàng Gǎnyìng! Fèng qǐng Miáo Guāng Qiáo, Zhao Guāng Pǔ, Yuán Tiān Gāng, Lǐ Chún Fēng, děng yī qiè xiān shī, Xī gù zhēn xiāng bìng tóng gòng fèi dòu. Jīnyǒu Liú shì Zǎolǎo, Liú Zhēn Qì, Tǔtiānxíndàodào！"
"Heaven has three anomalies, the earth has six divination instruments, spirits and strange creatures, so the qi hides at the body, yellow clay and red soil, bricks and stones, tombs, emit light a hundred steps away, follow the needle and see it! Hurry up as per the law!"
I only saw silver light like a flowing waterfall emerging from the front of that Taoist with a face veil!
Not actual flowing light, but likely some kind of talisman!
As they pierced through the group of Shoushen ghosts, piercing screams echoed in the night sky!
In a blink, all the Shoushen ghosts vanished without a trace.
Tian Shou Tao Ren and the beautiful and terrifying Chasuo suddenly appeared.
The other old Taoist who carried a sword stepped forward as well, and he spoke in a deep voice, "The incantation goes: The Son of Heaven cuts bamboo, the princes cut reeds, commoners cut grass, the sun month cuts the upper joint, the moon month cuts the lower joint, five-colored thread invites the Five Emperors!"
"Bloody sword cuts corpse, the sword falls and breaks the corpse's misfortune!"
"I invoke the legitimate laws of Liu family, haste as per the law!"
The old Taoist pulled out a sword, spat a mouthful of blood onto it, and then thrust the sword forward!
The blood light shot towards Tian Shou Tao Ren!
My chest drummed.
The incantation of the Liu family Taoist sounds simpler, yet compared to the seemingly complex ones from the Four Rules Mountain, there's something flashy about them?
Yes, the Liu family is more direct and forceful, with each move aimed to kill!
They seem to rely solely on their own Taoist abilities.
While the Taoist methods from the Four Rules Mountain involve more drawing upon external forces!
This makes it hard to compare strengths and weaknesses.
It's just that, the Taoist methods of the Liu family can more readily ignite the passion in one's chest.
Both remind me of the feeling when I was possessed by fifth Elder!
The blood light fell abruptly in front of Tian Shou Tao Ren.
The terrifying Chasuo ghost suddenly penetrated into Tian Shou Tao Ren's body.
Tian Shou Tao Ren's hands slapped down forcefully, causing the blood sword to fall to the ground and lose its momentum.
"The incantation goes: There is a wind gap in the cave, the qi follows the wind and disperses, and wind behind the cave leads to life and death!"
Tian Shou Tao Ren's incantation was more concise!
There's no righteousness, only an eerie atmosphere!
I've barely heard a Taoist practitioner from Tianshou Monastery recite an incantation, even the abbot is no exception!
An eerie scene unfolded.
A fierce wind suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
The Shoushen ghosts that were scattered by the face veil Taoist's Daoist methods earlier, reassembled and appeared again. They hovered above the ground, not touching it.
One by one, the malevolent ghosts with spirits that never left, scattered in the wind and flew towards the four Taoists!
It's not just Shoushen ghosts!
My scalp prickled with goosebumps.
Because... the remains of the old Taoist were actually standing up.
Not only the charred and shed remnants of the old immortal's body, but also the remains of the blue cadaver whose head was severed—all flew towards the Lü family Taoists!
Tian Shou Tao Ren, with every gesture and movement, summoned so many malevolent ghosts and corpses, truly terrifying!
The long-bearded Taoist and Liu Zi Yu must be at a loss.
If they move forward slightly, they might meet their end. As for the other two old Taoists, could they possibly withstand Tian Shou Tao Ren?
At that moment, I wasn't even sure how many of the disciples from the Four Rules Mountain could be considered Tian Shou Tao Ren's equals……
Because if comparing with Zheng Ren, his might is far inferior to Tian Shou Tao Ren's.
How could any mortal use the thunderbolt to match his might!
In a blink, the Shoushen ghosts and corpses driven by the incantation surrounded the four Lü family Taoists!
