The things that didn't catch the Willow fairy were not idle either, frantically striking and biting at Chang Xin!
"Save people!" Fe Fang whispered.
Xu Jin took big steps like the wind and crashed into the bamboo forest. When he met Chang Xin, he took out a long knife and slashed wildly in the air!
Those things retreated deftly, dodged, and fled.
Soon, Xu Jin pulled Chang Xin back ten meters and came to our side.
The rest of us, however, were staring at the previous position of Chang Xin.
There, unexpectedly, a person appeared without a sound.
Just then, a person was hanging upside down on a bent bamboo tree, completely black, with a face so pale that no one would dare to look at it. He was staring at us silently, as if he were watching a group of the dead.
The other party was not a ghost or a corpse.
I raised my hand, about to use thunder magic.
The other person suddenly dispersed, turning into countless bats the size of arm spans, flying randomly through the bamboo forest, leaving no trace.
"These are ghosts." Liang Jieshi said, using the tone of the old Gong: "Madam is quite good at playing."
Over such a long period of time, the ghosts I've encountered have actually been very few.
People who become ghosts are often referred to as ghosts. In fact, ghosts are a specific type of existence, such as the Oma, who appears in graveyards and feeds on dead bodies to become evil spirits.
There are also special items to deal with ghosts, but besides that, only brute force can be used to break through.
When the Oma in Qi Village were first encountered, Han Laozhao used all his skills to barely deal with them. If it were any ordinary level of Taoist, they might have died in the Oma's embrace.
Including the Guanyu of the Zhou family, and the Lǐkūn of the Liang family, they are also types of ghosts.
The Lǐkūn has the characteristic of being indestructible, and I was able to subdue it only because of the High Heaven Staff, a magical tool of a Taoist of the Yang Shen level.
At the moment, Chang Xin in front of me seems weak, but compared to the people from the grave site, he is far from weak. However, under the direct attack of these seemingly flying birds or bats that are actually ghosts, he retreated directly and even his Dou Xian was eaten by them. These things are definitely not easy to deal with.
"Do you know their origin?" I looked at Liang Jieshi, actually asking the old Gong.
He twirled his eyes around, and finally said, "They look quite strange, unlike the things I know. From the Oma's body, it seems they are difficult to deal with. Among us all, perhaps only you, Lord Han, are not afraid of them. Otherwise, it will be troublesome."
The task of digging graves and tombs is not easy for one person, and my brow furrowed slightly as well.
"It's basically certain that there must be an ancestral tomb moved by Ding Rui Pu in this bamboo forest, otherwise she wouldn't have set up so many traps. If we can root it out, not only will we deflate their momentum, but we can also handle this matter safely." Fe Fang spoke up afterwards, making a serious suggestion.
"Let's give it a try, Lord Han. Just be careful, don't let these things hurt your eyes." Liang Jieshi shook his shoulder and Lao Gong emerged, jumping onto my shoulder.
Liang Jieshi shook his head and stabilized his posture, then hurriedly looked at Chang Xin, full of concern.
I glanced at Chang Xin as well. At this moment, he looked very despondent, with dull eyes and fine scratches and bite marks all over his body and face.
Chang Xin's actions were very agile, but he took such a heavy blow, and even his Dou Xian was eaten by those ghosts. Of course, I know that Chang Xin has many snakes on his body, far more than just those two.
I took a step, following the path that Chang Xin previously walked straight inside.
The air in the bamboo forest is different from outside. It is much colder. Those bamboo trees seem to be alive and are staring at me.
I held my breath and focused my mind, ready to make a move at any time.
"Here they come, Lord!" Lao Gong shrank into the chamber pot and shouted sharply.
The thumping sound was dense and continuous.
I suddenly formed the earth thunder incantation, ready to unleash thunder magic.
For these numerous ghosts, the area-of-effect earth thunder incantation is best, but I didn't expect that the hand gesture would actually be ineffective!
No, something is wrong.
This is not just simple failure; it's as if there's some kind of barrier. The ground and the air are filled with a dense aura, not the natural qi but something more like condensed, tangible yin qi...
"The qi in the mouth of the cave is too heavy. Fengshui says that electric thunder electric thunder, zhen jia for turmoil, there must have put a township things, and suppress everything changes, not easy to use the lightening magic!" Lao Gong shouted sharply.
A weight settled in my heart.
I wonder how the wind and water array set up by Yinyang Master could have this effect?
There's no time to ponder, as those ghosts were about to hit my face. I quickly reached out to my waist and swung out seven or eight copper swords and peach wood swords, but the effect was minimal.
There are too many of these ghostly creatures that resemble birds and bats!
Even if I throw away all my magic weapons, I can't eliminate them!
"Imperial Heaven's might, lightning sweeping, wind racing. Lawful divine master, holding needle hammer. Wandering the three realms, the sun and moon hiding their radiance. Stars dim, constellations dark, ghosts crying, gods wailing! Iron wheel with inscriptions, spears from mountains collapsing! Hasten as the law commands!"
In the middle of the incantation, I swung both hands to move the High Heaven Staff and the High Heaven Sword.
The dark red light continued to spray and fly!
After this set of Taoist techniques, there were at least a hundred of those ghostly creatures on the ground, but more were still pouring in continuously!
In an instant, my movements changed, and I collected both the staff and sword, replacing them with four bright mirrors.
I took out a lot of scriptures and covered the mirror surfaces, quickly drawing patterns on the backs of the mirrors with my fingers. The symbols were completed instantly!
"Fire Crystal Flying Crow, Phoenix Beak Dragon Scale. Flying script ahead, cutting off evil qi. Any evil demon, cut trace and shape. Divine power wherever it goes, eats ghosts and absorbs essence. Hasten as the law commands."
After the opening spell, a blazing fire shot up into the sky, and countless feathers flew everywhere!
The ghostly creatures fell to the ground one after another with a slap, and the smell of burnt flesh filled the air.
For a moment, there were no other ghosts around me.
However, the flames from the burning scripts did not ignite the bamboo forest around me.
A man appeared silently in the distance, hanging upside down. He was completely black except for his face, which was as pale as death, and he glared at me with a sinister look.
Without hesitation, I used the four mirrors again to shoot at him!
The copper light suddenly flashed, and he collapsed instantly, becoming those ghostly creatures that are a arm span long again!
This is not the most terrifying thing. For me, these ghosts are not very aggressive.
The trouble is... there are too many of them. From my perspective, I can see at least a dozen such "people."
They are not human at all. They are just groups of ghostly creatures gathered together, forming something like a human shape.
"It's a bit like the Guanyu of the Zhou family, but not exactly." Lao Gong finally noticed something odd.
"Lord, give them a heavy hit! Don't worry about burning the mountain. The place is filled with so much yin qi that it can't summon thunder, let alone ignite a fire!" Lao Gong's voice became even shriller.
My expression became stern.
In fact, the thunder magic I had previously unleashed was already quite powerful. These were my only moves to deal with earth qi ghosts.
It's just that there were too many of these "ghosts."
Just as I was concentrating and ready to use the opening spell again, suddenly, an eerie feeling swept over me.
A sense of being watched appeared diagonally in front, watching our direction.
It's not just the person who collapsed a moment ago that turned into a large number of ghosts charging towards me. There is also a sense of overwhelming death in the dark in front of me, as if it's trying to lock me in!
