Chapter 775 Purifying The Ghosts I
When night finally arrived, the air temperature in the death village dropped drastically, and a powerful pressure began to envelope the entire area, causing Ling Yu'er and Yi Mingxia to tremble violently.
Soon, the ghosts of the villagers began to appear one by one, and their appearance was completely no different from when they were alive, only that they no longer had bodies, which allowed Ling Yun and the others to see through them.
"Are you going to activate the formation now, Master?" Yi Mingxia asked Zhiyu Yushen in a low voice.
"No." Zhiyu Yuzhen shook her head as she continued to look at the hundreds of ghosts before them, and she released a regretful sigh upon seeing them all. "We have to wait for the ferocious ghost to appear first, and I will immediately activate the formation once it appears."
Yi Mingxia nodded in understanding and turned to her son, but Ling Yun's gaze was only focused on the hill behind the village, and his expression was very serious.
Xiao Xiao was no different from their husband, and her expression was also very serious; even the Sun and Mon Daggers were already in her hands.
Meanwhile, Tian Yueling was already holding her whip, and Yun Gongzhu was also preparing to attack the enemy with her green jade stick.
Only Zhou Yu didn't look anxious at all, as she had high confidence in Ling Yun. 'Hey, you should be prepared to release your devil soul and let it absorb the ferocious ghost, but you guys have to weaken it first.'
'It shouldn't be difficult, right?'
'Yes.' Zhou Yu nodded to him. 'After all, Yi Mingxia has light qi from her holy sacred body, and Ling Yu'er's light qi is also potent because it comes from the celestial nine-tailed fox. Besides, Xiao Xiao's dragon flames are also very strong, and your combined attacks can weaken that ghost."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding and summoned his devil soul, and its expression looked happy to see the ghosts of the villagers, but he stopped it as he didn't want to absorb them.
"Hmm?" Zhiyu Yushen immediately turned to him with a raised eyebrow. "I didn't expect that you also have dark qi, or else you wouldn't have a dark soul."
Tian Yueling and Yun Gongzhu also turned to him, but their gazes were on Ling Yun's devil soul.
"Do you want to kill me because I have both?" Ling Yun casually asked as he turned to Zhiyu Yushen.
"Why should I kill you?" Zhiyu Yushen replied by shaking her head. "Everyone's elements are determined from the moment they are born, and they cannot choose their elements. Moreover, not all dark Qi possessors are heretics, and many of them are much better than light Qi possessors."
"That's right, fate has decided everything." Ling Yun then pointed at Tian Yueling and Yun Gongzhu. "Unfortunately, only a handful of cultivators think like you, and most of them think like those two. They always judge those possessing dark qi as heretics, and they even slaughter those people indiscriminately."
Zhiyu Yushen nodded in agreement with that. "However, you also can't blame them, especially since so many dark qi possessors often commit various heinous crimes, especially those heretics from the Earth Cloud Realm. Just look at this village, and this happened because of their actions, so it's natural that people hate them very much."
"There is a cause; there must be an effect, and we can't blame anyone for anything except ourselves." Ling Yun then turned towards the hill again. "The ferocious ghost has appeared."
Hearing that, Zhiyu Yuzhen and the others also looked towards the hill, and the ferocious ghost appeared from the cave on the hill.
The five women gasped in shock after they saw the ferocious ghost, especially since its body was huge and the pressure from its aura was also powerful.
"Get ready!" Zhiyu Yushen shouted at them. "When the ferocious ghost enters this village, I will activate the formation to weaken it and purify these ghosts, and you guys can attack it directly."
"Yes!"
Zhou Yu protected Yi Mingxia and Ling Yu'er with void walls in case the ferocious ghost attacked her, especially since their cultivation was the weakest among them. As for the other three women, she was confident that they could protect themselves.
After they waited for some time, the ferocious ghost arrived at the village, and Zhiyu Yushen injected her light qi into the device in her hand. "Sanctuary activated!"
Instantly, light qi pillars appeared from every item they had placed in several areas before, and they gathered to form a giant light qi dome that enveloped the entire village.
*Roar*
The ferocious ghost roared loudly after the formation's effects suppressed it, and it grew even more enraged when it noticed the villagers' ghosts gradually dissipating as a result of Zhiyu Yushen's light qi.
"Attack that ferocious ghost now!" Zhiyu Yushen said to them. "I will focus on purifying these ghosts."
Auras of blue, green, and red enveloped Tian Yueling, Xiao Xiao, and Yun Gongzhu as they dashed toward the ferocious ghost.
Meanwhile, Ling Yu'er immediately removed the necklace around her neck, and Tian Yu directly took control of her body before moving to attack the ferocious ghost.
However, a pitch-black aura suddenly enveloped the ferocious ghost, and a black mace appeared in his hand before he swung it towards the women.
Naturally, they did not want to be the target of the vicious ghost's attack, so they deftly avoided it. Fortunately, the ferocious ghost's body was too big, and its mace was also very big, which made its movements very slow.
Furthermore, Yi Mingxia immediately moved behind the four women to support them, and she threw her qingling pagoda above the ferocious ghost's head, which caused the pitch-black qi that enveloped it to dissipate instantly.
Even though her cultivation was still too low, the effect of Yi Mingxia's light qi was very potent on the ferocious ghost, causing it to feel increasingly oppressed.
Suddenly, the figure of a white fox appeared behind Ling Yu'er, and it released a deafening roar, which caused the ferocious ghost to stagger backwards. Even so, she didn't stop there, and the white fox figure immediately tore its body with its claws in succession.
*Crack*
Taking advantage of that, Tian Yueling lashed her whips at the ferocious ghost, and Yun Gongzhu thrust her green jade stick towards it before a green qi shot out toward it, which directly pierced its body.
*Pierce*
*Roar*
The ferocious ghost once again released a loud roar, and some parts of its body seemed to fade from their consecutive attacks, but it immediately used its mace to support its huge body.
The ferocious ghost suddenly opened its mouth and sucked in some of the ghosts around them, which made its body recover quickly.
"Hey! Don't let it absorb those ghosts!" Tian Yueling shouted at the other women as she continued to lash her whip towards the ferocious ghost's face, but it covered its face with hands.
Ling Yu'er suddenly disappeared from their sight and reappeared behind the ferocious ghost, and she used her fox claws to attack the back of its head.
The sun and moon daggers in Xiao Xiao's hands glowed red and snow white, and she moved quickly to attack the ferocious ghost's feet.
Utilizing her wind element, Yun Gongzhu continued to shoot her green qi towards the ferocious ghost, and each attack continued to penetrate its body.
Seeing that they were so enthusiastic about attacking the ferocious ghost, Yi Mingxia took out her qinglin grail and pointed the hollow part towards it, and her light qi immediately radiated out from it.
*Bam... Bam... Bam...*
Suddenly, they heard three consecutive gunshots, and qi bullets quickly penetrated the ferocious ghost's body.
That surprised Yun Gongzhu and Tian Yueling, but Xiao Xiao told them right away. "You don't need to care about that; Xiya is a sniper, and she helped us from the Icarus."
They didn't say anything and continued to attack the ferocious ghost, but it continued to recover itself by absorbing more ghosts, and they couldn't prevent it from doing so, especially since they couldn't attack those ghosts or they would disappear.
"Move!"
Ling Yun's shout startled them, but they quickly realized that he was already in half-dragon form and holding the chaos dragon cannon in his hands.
As soon as the women got out of the way, Ling Yun immediately fired his cannon, and a huge ball of light qi shot towards the ferocious ghost very quickly.
*Swoosh*
"Huh? How can he also have light qi?" Yun Gongzhu felt truly shocked by that, especially after she saw Ling Yun's devil soul earlier.
Tian Yueling was not surprised by that, as she already more or less knew about Ling Yun. 'What a freak!'
Unfortunately, they still didn't know the real Ling Yun, and they would definitely be even more shocked if they found out that he had nine qi, plus he also had devil qi.
*Roar*
The ferocious ghost roared as it tried to block Ling Yun's attack, but the light ball qi continued to push it backwards, causing it to leave quite a trail in the ground beneath it.
However, Ling Yun suddenly appeared in front of it, and he directly slashed the chaos dragon scyte covered in dark flame towards the ferocious ghost.
*Slash*
*Roar*
*Boom*
Instantly, Ling Yun's light qi ball slammed into the ferocious ghost's body, causing it to fall to the ground, and his devil soul immediately moved to absorb it.
