Chapter 68 Hearing the 9 Spring Qi Again
Chapter 68 Hearing the Nine Springs Qi Again
"This is all what the master thought of for me."
Guo Shan felt a little embarrassed by Taoist Dachun's praise.
But as he answered, he gently swung the long ghost-torturing stick in his hand, burning the evil spirits around him.
"and many more!"
Guo Shan frowned and looked down.
"Master, the aura down there is changing quite violently. The other party has noticed us."
Hearing this, Taoist Dachun's expression changed slightly, and Chu Tai also spoke to speed up. The three of them quickly rushed to the cemetery below and saw an empty space surrounded by golden boy lanterns and coffins of thousands of corpses.
But unlike the scene that Guo Shan had conjured up before, the coffin placed in front of Chu Tai and the other two was very large, six feet four inches high and two feet four feet long, enough to hold twenty or thirty corpses.
There was not a single crack on the surface of the coffin, as if it was carved from a single piece of stone, with relief carvings on all five exposed sides.
Upon closer inspection, they saw that in front of Chu Tai and the others was a Jade Rabbit pounding medicine, with Magu offering longevity and the God of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness on both sides, and peach branches, Ganoderma lucidum, lotus and other patterns in the corners. Unfortunately, the thick corpse aura and dirty blood gathered all around made these patterns, which were originally full of auspicious meanings, become extremely strange.
Looking up, hanging right above the coffin is a white jade mirror carved with the twelve phases of the moon.
At this time, the moon was rotating, and the faint moonlight absorbed inspiration from the surrounding lights and deathly energy from the corpses below, transforming into wisps of moonlight-like light, shining on the surface of the coffin.
"Good fellow, this guy not only wants to become a Corpse King, but also plans to worship the moon and practice to become a Corpse Immortal."
"No, this guy was planning to refine his body in Taiyin, but he didn't have the courage to really place his soul in Taiyin, so he did this. If he really succeeded, he would barely be considered to have entered the fifth level."
Chu Tai raised his hand and released golden light. Mist instantly appeared on the surface of the coffin, and countless limbs could be vaguely seen intertwined inside. At the same time, streams of corpse water like oil wax flowed out from the gap between the coffin and the coffin lid.
The white jade moon mirror above shook, and a sound came from inside.
"Since you have seen my method of cultivation, you should also know that it is not easy for me to cultivate so hard. Please be merciful and do not ruin my arrangement."
Hearing this, Chu Tai laughed out loud, and in front of Guo Shan's shocked gaze, he shouted, "Bah! How dare you, a cultivator of the Blood Demon Dao, call me a fellow Daoist and talk to me about mercy?"
"I'll give you a chance. Tell me what the plague, epidemic, and disease in your cemetery are all about. Tell me the truth, and I can let one of your souls go to the underworld to atone for your sins."
When Chu Tai asked, there was no sound in the coffin.
After waiting for a while, Chu Tai directly released seventy-two red leaf sword pills from the red maple sword bag. Red leaves flew all over the sky, cutting off the corpses that suddenly moved around and had white hair growing on their surfaces.
Taoist Dachun knew something was wrong when Chu Tai mentioned the Bloody Demonic Way. When he saw Chu Tai taking action, he immediately opened the magic umbrella in his hand, and the clear light rotated, rolling up the flowing clouds, and took the Golden Boy Lanterns into it.
Guo Shan also swung the ghost-torturing stick in his hand and hit the coffin. Fire burned fiercely, a large amount of choking black smoke rose up, and the strong smell of corpses spread, causing more corpses to move.
But before these corpses could get up, they died under the red leaves. Their remaining souls were bound by Guo Shan's body and fell to the ground.
The white jade moon mirror vibrated, and the cold "moonlight" poured down, slightly distorting the surrounding void, trying to force Chu Tai and others to retreat.
"Do you really want to kill them all?"
As he roared, thick vines emerged from deep underground and grabbed towards Chu Tai and the other two.
The surface of these vines was uneven, resembling human faces. If you looked closely, you could vaguely discern the position of the eyebrows, eyes, ears, nose and mouth. After they emerged from the ground, they all wailed, and their faces looked distorted and terrifying. Chu Tai's face was stern, and the red leaf sword balls danced on them. The sword lights crossed, and when he cut them, he felt that these vines were several times tougher than ordinary vines, and dark red things kept flowing out of the broken ends, just like blood.
The strange thing is that the blood does not have the slightest fishy smell, but instead has an intoxicating sweet fragrance.
After just two sniffs, Chu Tai felt his blood boiling and his body felt a little sleepy, as if he was slightly tipsy.
"These things are actually Yangshengzuiyin vines."
Taoist Dachun also widened his eyes and saw the origin of this vine. It was clearly a kind of elixir that could turn bones into flesh and revive the dead. It mostly grew in places where a large number of corpses had accumulated, such as tombs of a hundred bones, pits of a thousand people, and caves of ten thousand corpses. It could be considered one of the classic examples of an elixir that produces yang at the extreme of yin.
Seeing so many vines in front of us, one can imagine that the number of corpses buried underground is far greater than that outside.
At the same time, although Yangshengzuiyinteng is good, there is a ray of evil death inside it that is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, the medicinal properties have a paralyzing ability that is almost like fine wine for the living.
Chu Tai and Taoist Dachun both held their breath at the first moment, but Guo Shan was just the opposite. He took deep breaths, and the aroma of wine emanating from the Yangshengzuiyin vines around him was absorbed into his body. As it was burned by the hellfire evolved from his true qi, it turned into essence to nourish his body.
Guo Shan, with his blood boiling, grabbed the vines with one hand and waved the ghost-torturing stick with the other, driving the flames to bind many Yangshengzuiyin vines.
Chu Tai snapped his fingers, and a sword light flew out, cutting into the center of the twelve moon phases.
Ripples appeared and the moon wheel rotated, as if the water moon flower was trying to deflect the attack. It was obviously some kind of defensive magic ban set up on the white jade mirror.
The golden light flowed, like the sun shining everywhere. The moon phase faded away, and the sword light transformed from the agarwood sword ball pierced into the center. After a crisp sound of ice breaking, a crack appeared on the white jade mirror.
The corpse king in the coffin obviously didn't expect Chu Tai to directly break the Mirror Flower Water Moon method he had set up, and shouted in horror: "Daoyou, please show mercy. I am willing to tell you what I know..."
"Crack!"
There was another crisp sound, and the white jade mirror was pierced by the agarwood sword, and thousands of silver-white jade chips flew around.
"Ok?"
The light of the sun and the moon flowed in Chu Tai's eyes. He pressed his thumb on the tip of his middle finger, pinched the green light of Su Chen, and threw it casually.
The green light transformed into 108 cold pine needles that fell down and pierced the surroundings of the coffin. The bits of frost that appeared along with the green light then fell on the fragments of the white jade mirror, killing the clones hidden in them one by one.
"This is... the dark and misty Qi of the Nine Springs..."
The white jade mirror shook slightly and uttered a mournful cry: "You are not trustworthy!"
Hearing this, Chu Tai was startled. He changed his body shape and came to the side of the coffin. He raised his hand and released the Southern Flame Cave Fu Xi Yao Zhen Qi to suppress the changes inside. He asked, "Is the one who cooperated with you Tianmen Divine Lord?"
But the corpse king in the coffin had lost control with his soul damaged and his spirit frozen.
The white jade mirror exploded with a loud bang, and the coffin broke into pieces soon after. Endless black gas rolled and spread, covering the surrounding space.
Chu Tai didn't care at all. He spread out his five fingers, and golden light suddenly appeared. While dispelling the black air, he faced the corpse king who rushed out. The corpse king opened his big mouth full of fangs, and a large ball of filthy blood mixed with corpse fluid spurted out.
At the same time, the vines under the coffin that were originally pressed down by Guo Shan also began to dance wildly, and a steady stream of corpse energy was injected into them, making them twitch like a strange python and directly knock Guo Shan aside.
The time in the previous text was written wrong. One hour was changed to half an incense stick.
