Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 65: Millennium Corpse Demon
The inheritance was right in front of him, but Wang Chen only felt a chill on his back.
In front of him, the ghost in white was telling a story.
The ghost that had revealed itself was reflected in his eyes, and the white color made his gaze gradually turn cold...
"A thousand years ago, my husband traveled and brought back a beautiful woman. I didn't expect that she was a thousand-year-old corpse demon who was very good at bewitching people. My husband was bewitched by it and his personality changed drastically. He set up a trap to kill all the 2,000 disciples under his tutelage and sacrificed their blood to the corpse demon. Afterwards, the corpse demon became very ferocious and suppressed my husband and me here, so that our souls could not be reincarnated..."
"Wang Chen, do you think what he said is true?" Xiaoyao, who had just been frightened by the red-clothed female ghost, poked her head out from behind Wang Chen and asked.
But Wang Chen nodded, looking serious: "It's really a tragedy in the world. This kind of demon can be killed by anyone. Senior, don't worry, just send me out. I will definitely attract the demon-killing power to kill the corpse demon."
The female ghost was slightly stunned, then said with a miserable look, "It's impossible. Once you enter this place, you will never be able to get out unless you kill the corpse demon."
"Am I going to be trapped here to death?" Wang Chen was stunned.
"This matter was caused by my husband. Even if I have to give up my remaining soul and body, I cannot let that corpse demon wreak havoc on the world. Back then, I searched everywhere for extraordinary people to get the sword to subdue demons, but unfortunately, I failed in the end and was killed by that corpse demon. Now I have become a ghost and cannot move. If you are willing to subdue the demon with the sword, then I will give you this sword." The female ghost had a face full of resentment.
Wang Chen frowned, looked into the ghost girl's eyes and said, "Kill a thousand-year-old corpse demon? Senior, I am only at the sixth level of Qi Condensation. Do you really think I can kill a two-thousand-year-old corpse demon?"
The ghost girl smiled and said, "Even though my husband has 2,000 disciples, there are only a few who have reached the sixth level of Qi Condensation at your age. This shows that you have a chivalrous heart."
With his eyes slightly narrowed, no matter how thick-skinned Wang Chen was, he could not calmly accept the term "chivalrous and righteous".
The female ghost ignored Wang Chen's strange expression and said:
"It is naturally impossible for the sixth level of Qi Condensation to kill a thousand-year-old corpse demon, but this sword was forged by a skilled craftsman using the most rare golden body relic of Buddhism. It took a hundred years to form a sword embryo, and then 7749 monks chanted scriptures every day to bless it. After another hundred years, it was finally forged into a sword. It is a supreme artifact for subduing demons and monsters. It only needs a little bit of true energy to drive it. A corpse demon with only two thousand years of cultivation will not be able to stop it. When the corpse demon is killed, my husband and I will also fall into reincarnation. These six swords are given to you, young man."
The female ghost mentioned the gift of the Six Paths Sword twice, which made Wang Chen's eyes pass over the coffin and stay on the Six Paths Sword above it.
"The sword suppresses demons, the bronze coffin, the chains suspended in the air, and the earth's energy attracts the east and the west?" Isn't this the demon-suppressing formation in the "Four-Character Feng Shui Secret Technique"?
Inexplicably, he thought of the "Four-Character Feng Shui Secret Technique". At first, he just skimmed through the contents and it might be difficult for him to recite it, but when the scene described in it really appeared before his eyes, he instantly recalled that there was indeed such a content.
Looking at the thick chain holding something, Wang Chen's emotions fluctuated. He was sure that there was a similar arrangement in a symmetrical place in this underworld house.
The bronze coffin is meant to prevent evil spirits from causing trouble in the coffin and to isolate the earth's energy in order to suppress the evil spirits. The chains here are suspended in the air, far away from the ground, which makes the evil spirits inside more powerful. What's more, there is a real sword to suppress it. Ordinary evil spirits would never have such treatment.
As he thought this in his mind, he felt that there was a faint and extremely cold aura coming from the female ghost in white standing next to him.
"Why, young man, why don't you draw your sword yet?" the female ghost said indifferently.
The sound seemed to bring a gust of cold wind that blew past.
The true energy in the body slowly flows out.
Draw the sword? What a joke! Wang Chen dared to guarantee that if he drew the sword, the evil creature in the coffin would immediately break out and he would be torn into pieces in an instant.
The Demon-Subduing Sword emitted a faint golden light, but it could not bring any warmth to this place.
Wang Chen suddenly felt a little chilly. He didn't know whether the source of the biting cold was the huge bronze coffin or the white-clothed ghost beside him.
He looked up inexplicably, and there was a slight spark jumping in his hand. When he looked at the female ghost again, he didn't know if it was an hallucination, but he felt that the ghost's face had become even uglier.
“Hehehe~”
A burst of strange laughter suddenly came.
Then, countless figures appeared outside the window. Their bodies were stiff and seemed to be floating in the air. They were the paper figures seen just now.
The paper figures fluttered and made strange laughter. At the same time, the heavy and strange footsteps of the corpse demon came closer and closer, and a bright red body walking with its head back slowly appeared in front of the window.
Bang! The window suddenly opened, revealing the figure of the evil spirit in red.
The female ghost exclaimed and urged, "The corpse demon has discovered your breath. I will stop him first, and you quickly draw out the sword to subdue demons." After saying that, she actually flew towards the window.
Her pleated skirt fluttered, her black hair swayed, just like the tenderness when she held Wang Chen's hand in the sky...
Then, she suddenly felt that Wang Chen's breath behind her disappeared.
She looked back inexplicably, but Wang Chen had disappeared without a trace. All she could see was the empty space in front of the huge bronze coffin, as if it had been empty for a thousand years.
To her surprise, she actually heard the sound of the door being hastily pushed open, just like a heartless man pushing open the door of his home decisively without lingering.
"ah!"
Her face suddenly became hideous, and purple-red veins suddenly popped up on her pale skin. Her mouth was full of sharp teeth, and with a terrifying ghost howl, the horrible ghost revealed its true form and turned around to pounce back the way it came.
Wang Chen returned the Qinggang sword and ran away.
He used all his strength to practice the Breath-Concealing Technique, not caring whether it would work or not.
The wind whistled past his ears and he crouched like a hunter tracking prey in the jungle.
He could clearly feel the stone ground under his feet. At this moment, his heart was as calm as ice, and he was thinking quickly about the record of the demon-subduing formation in the four-character Feng Shui secret technique.
The Demon Subduing Formation is not the most effective formation for killing demons. For some strange evil demons, ordinary means cannot kill them completely. However, if a Demon Subduing Formation is set up, the demons will be sealed first to weaken their demonic aura. During this period, the formation will absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth for countless years and finally be activated. The terrifying power will explode and completely kill the suppressed demons.
Judging from the location, this place can almost be said to be the center of the formation. Once you enter the formation , you can only enter but not exit. In order to prevent monsters from wreaking havoc on the world, anything that walks out of the range of the formation will be killed instantly.
I don't know which master set up this formation, but it may have encountered an accident at this moment, so the formation has not been activated yet, giving the demons an opportunity to take advantage.
The formation has now been accumulated over thousands of years. Once it is activated, it will be able to directly kill the demons.
"It's just that how do I activate the formation..."
"I seem to have forgotten..."
