Chapter 191: The Ghost of the Talisman Drawing, the Secret of Liling
Wu Wei was not aware of the strange looks from the crowd at all. He was happily touching his river-turning and sea-stirring stick.
The first time I faced a demon, I showed such bravery. It's worthy of being the invincible magic weapon I personally refined!
He even specially thanked Li Daoxuan.
"Brother, you are right. My three invincible treasures really have great potential. Just adding some small functions will greatly increase their power!"
After learning that he had to help his brother exorcise the monster tonight, he hastily added a small function, which was to hide some small spikes on the stick.
Sure enough , a remarkable achievement was achieved in no time!
After this battle, Wu Wei felt that his mind was opened up and all kinds of wonderful ideas emerged. He wanted to go back home immediately to modify his magic weapon.
Li Daoxuan looked a little embarrassed. At this moment, he really wanted to say, who are you? Do we know each other?
Fortunately, Lou Xiaoyun eased his embarrassment.
"Hey, there's another talisman?"
Lou Xiaoyun saw that after the ghost mother's body disappeared, a green talisman appeared on the ground. She picked it up and was a little surprised.
How could there be Taoist talismans inside a monster's body?
Li Daoxuan's pupils condensed, and he hurriedly said, "Let me see it."
Lou Xiaoyun handed him the talisman.
Li Daoxuan looked at the talisman carefully. It felt cold to the touch, as if a negative energy was coming out of the talisman and trying to penetrate into Li Daoxuan's body, but was blocked by his magic power.
If an ordinary person comes across this talisman, he would probably fall seriously ill.
Li Daoxuan took out another talisman from the Three Realms Gourd. It was also green in color, with a spooky aura and an evil pattern on it.
When the two talismans were placed under the moon and compared, they were exactly the same, with no difference!
"Master, where did you get this talisman?"
Wu Dabao asked quickly.
Li Daoxuan explained: "It was a female ghost in Zhaofu River. She pretended to be the river god, but I got rid of her. After she died, she left this talisman behind."
After a pause, Li Daoxuan asked, "Uncle Master, you must know something about this talisman."
The female ghost of Zhaofu River and the ghost mother of Liling City both have this kind of talisman in their bodies.
Li Daoxuan had long been suspicious as to why the female ghost in Zhaofu River suddenly became more powerful. And as for this ghost mother, "Records of Strange Things" said that she lived in Xiaoyu Mountain in the South China Sea, but the South China Sea was thousands of miles away from Liling City. Why did she come here to do evil?
Maybe the answer lies in these two talismans.
Wu Dabao sighed softly and said, "Nephew, you are in trouble this time."
He pointed at the two talismans and said, "This talisman is a ghost-painted talisman that can control the life and death of ghosts. At the same time, it can also greatly increase the magic power of ghosts. In fact, this talisman is nothing. The real scary thing is the ghost who drew the talisman!"
"What exactly is the ghost that draws the talisman?"
Li Daoxuan was very curious. What kind of existence could make his uncle who came from Longhu Mountain so fearful?
Wu Dabao looked around and waved flags to form a barrier array. Then he said solemnly, "His name is Xudu, the Lord of the Underworld. In fact, all the people in Xuanzhou will enter the Underworld after death."
"Hollow-bellied Ghost King!"
Lou Xiaoyun let out a cry of surprise.
As a bad person, she naturally knows how terrifying the Hollow-Bellied Ghost King is. He is one of the most terrifying existences in the world, who rose up after the disappearance of gods and Buddhas, and is one-third of the underworld!
It is said that he once swallowed millions of evil spirits and his magical powers were incredibly strong.
Over the past thousands of years, there have been human Yang Gods who have wanted to defeat the Xudu Ghost King, but without exception, any cultivator who dared to enter the Underworld, even if they were powerful Yang Gods, disappeared.
The Ghost King with Empty Dumbness is also very cunning and rarely leaves the Underworld.
After countless years of operation, the Yellow Spring Realm has become his dojo. Even a top cultivator like the Old Heavenly Master would not risk his life and easily step into someone else's dojo.
The Empty-Dulled Ghost King hiding in the Underworld is undoubtedly more powerful, more advanced, and has many subordinates. He is a powerful force secretly coveting the human world.
Lou Xiaoyun still remembered that the head sect leader Yuan Tiangang had once made a list with a serious look on his face, and those names were the ones that were best not to be provoked unless absolutely necessary.
Among them is the Empty-Dulled Ghost King, and his ranking is not low.
Hearing this name, Li Daoxuan was also slightly stunned.
It’s not that I’m afraid, but I remember my master’s injury.
The Hollow-Bellied Ghost King was an enemy he had wanted to deal with for a long time, but he did not expect that by such a coincidence, he had killed two of the Hollow-Bellied Ghost King's subordinates by accident.
Wu Dabao was not surprised to see that no one spoke, for he had long anticipated the deterrent power of the Hollow-Bellied Ghost King.
"In fact, when I first arrived in Liling City 20 years ago, I discovered something was wrong."
Wu Dabao simply told his nephew everything he knew so that he would give up.
"After the people here die, they sometimes appear in their dreams to their descendants, crying about the inhuman torture they suffered. Later, I calculated that after the people of Xuanzhou die, their souls enter the underworld. In other words, Xuanzhou is actually the territory of the Empty-Dull Ghost King."
Hearing this, Lou Xiaoyun frowned slightly.
In her opinion, Xuanzhou has always been the territory of the Tang Dynasty. No matter how powerful the Xudu Ghost King is, he should not interfere in the world of the living.
But she didn't make any noise to disturb him, but listened silently.
"Although the Empty-Dull Ghost King was very cruel to souls, generally speaking , he did not go too far and was relatively restrained, so I did not interfere. However, everything changed three years ago."
Wu Dabao's eyes showed a trace of heaviness, and he said: "Three years ago, the Zhaofu River outside Liling City changed. The ghosts in the river seemed to have been favored by the Xudu Ghost King. Their magic power increased greatly and killed many young and beautiful women."
"I have calculated their horoscopes. None of the women who were drowned died young. Instead, they all died in the river. Afterwards, their souls were quickly taken to the underworld."
Li Daoxuan's mind moved, and he said, "It seems that the female ghost of Zhaofu River is helping the Ghost King Xudu to search for the soul of a young and beautiful woman!"
Wu Dabao nodded and said, "Yes, later on, another ghost mother came to Liling City. She gave birth to many little ghosts who specialized in absorbing the yang energy of strong men, and then killed these men suddenly, and then took their souls to the underworld."
Zhang Qianyang's eyes narrowed. With his rich experience, he had realized something was wrong.
"Junior brother, that is to say, the female ghosts of Zhaofu River are helping the Ghost King Xudu to collect the souls of beautiful women, while the Ghost Mother is collecting the souls of young men?"
Wu Dabao and his senior brother looked at each other and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, you should have thought of it."
Li Daoxuan asked puzzledly: "Master, what's going on?"
Zhang Qianyang frowned and said, "It is said that the practice of the Empty-bellied Ghost King is related to devouring. He used to be quite well behaved, but he suddenly started to make a big move in recent years. He even sent the Ghost Mother who lives in Xiaoyu Mountain in the South China Sea to collect the souls of young men and women..."
Zhang Qianyang's voice was particularly heavy.
“Perhaps, the Empty-Dull Ghost King is about to break through and become a Ghost Immortal!”
Ghost immortal!
Li Daoxuan thought of the Green-Robed Goddess, who had attained both the status of a ghost immortal and a divine immortal, but was still injured when facing the combined forces of the Empty-Bellied Ghost King and the Black Mountain Old Demon.
If the Empty-Dull Ghost King really becomes a ghost immortal, the situation will be even more critical!
"Junior brother, why didn't you tell me such a big thing earlier?"
Zhang Qianyang said with some blame.
Wu Dabao shook his head and said, "Brother, what good is it to tell you? Even if you haven't fallen into the Yang God Realm, do you have a chance of winning against the Empty Belly Ghost King?"
"Or can you trust the old man to go to the underworld alone?"
Zhang Qianyang remained silent.
"Brother, I actually tried to stop it, but later, when I woke up in the morning, I found that my civet cat had its head chopped off and was placed beside the bed, staring at me."
"If I wasn't born in Longhu Mountain, and the other party was still afraid of the old man, then it wouldn't just be the cat that got beheaded."
