Volume 1 Uncle Nine's World Chapter 9: Ghost Levels
Simu took a bite of food and looked at Jiale in confusion, "How do you know about the art of summoning gods?"
Jia Le paused when he heard this, but then he spoke, "I saw the witch in the village use it."
Simu's expression changed immediately after hearing this. "The witch in the village knows some magic to summon gods, but it's just a scam. How can it be compared with the authentic Maoshan magic? Come, let me tell you about my Maoshan magic to summon gods. This is my specialty."
Jiale pretended to listen attentively, and Simu also enjoyed it.
"My Maoshan summoning technique uses the immortal gods in heaven, the deceased master in the middle, and the ghosts below. The one I summoned last night was my Maoshan ancestor, your master's master, who is also my master. This master is now working in the underworld and has great magical powers. That old ghost can be destroyed with just a wave of his hand.
To practice the art of summoning gods, one needs to open an altar and perform rituals at first, and only by coordinating footwork, mantras and summoning talismans can one succeed. If one is summoning ghosts , one needs to prepare three animals for sacrifice, which is quite troublesome. Once one becomes proficient, one can directly use the summoning talisman to summon gods, just like a master. When one reaches great proficiency, one does not even need the summoning talisman, and can directly summon gods by communicating with their minds.
However, that level of realm cannot be achieved by hard work alone, it also requires some divine favor, and the reason why I was able to ask the master for help is because he always worships and offers incense, this is the benefit of having a sect. "
After a pause, Simu continued, "People also call the art of summoning gods the art of beating gods, but there are still differences between the two. The art of summoning gods is derived from the art of driving away gods in the 72 earthly arts, while the art of beating gods is a method of the underworld, and they are not the same. When you drive the corpse back this time, I will teach you the art of summoning gods."
Jiale was also a little excited when he heard this. Wasn't this what he was waiting for?
"Thank you, Master."
The master and the disciple were not idle while eating. Simu was very surprised that Jiale was able to subdue a little ghost by himself last night, so he asked.
"Jia Le, how did you subdue that little devil last night? You should know that little devil's cultivation is not low, at least much stronger than you."
Jia Le felt somewhat proud when he heard this, after all, this was his first kill in his life.
He just repeated the process of his display of supernatural power last night. Simu was a little amazed after listening to it. The fighting process seemed simple, but how dangerous it was, how could Simu not know it.
The summoning technique consumes too much magic power. Generally, after using it, one will lose the power to resist. Of course, it also depends on one's own cultivation. If Simu had not been afraid of losing magic power after using the summoning technique last night and had no time to save Jiale, he would have directly used the summoning technique to kill the two old ghosts.
"Master has never told you the level of this ghost, so I will tell you today."
Jiale stopped talking when he heard this. He was very concerned about this. After all, this was the key to whether there would be blue energy beads in the future.
After listening carefully, Jiale finally understood.
It turns out that after a person dies, the soul will stay for seven days. If it does not follow the underworld after seven days, it will turn into a wandering ghost. In addition, those who died suddenly or suffered great injustice, whose resentment is condensed and cannot be dissipated, are also not allowed to enter reincarnation.
The resentment of these ghosts continues to deepen and they turn into evil spirits, increasing their strength greatly. However, evil ghosts are completely irrational and only have hatred. Once all the hatred disappears, their souls will immediately scatter. In other words, the source of their power lies entirely in their resentment.
Most of the wandering ghosts are transformed into ghost cultivators. The longer these ghosts cultivate, the stronger they become.
The little ghost, evil ghost, ghost soldier, ghost general and ghost king correspond to the realm of refining essence to the realm of refining spirit of the cultivator respectively. The little ghost that Jiale met last night was at the same realm as Jiale, but that little ghost was obviously not at the realm of a beginner ghost and was stronger than Jiale.
As for the two old ghosts killed by Simu, they were both at the peak realm of evil ghosts, equivalent to the Qi Transformation Realm of cultivators. In theory, it is lower than Simu's Qi Refining Realm. However, when ghosts reach the evil ghost realm, they will give birth to supernatural powers. Such supernatural powers can be strong or weak. This pair of old ghosts have the rare twin supernatural powers that can cooperate with each other, and the strength they can display is no less than that of ghosts.
It was already very impressive that Simu was able to fight two ghosts head-on and kill one of them, and that was without using the ultimate move of summoning spirits.
Then use the magic to take them all away.
After staying in the charity cemetery for a whole day, Jiale was not idle. After sleeping for half a day, he began to draw talismans. Time was limited, so he only made two talismans to suppress ghosts, so that he would have the capital to deal with ghosts .
However, nothing happened before arriving in Xiangdong.
There were eighteen dead bodies, five of which were customers from Xiangdong. They were divided into five villages. Simu and Jiale searched for them all the way and put down four of the dead bodies, successfully earning twelve dollars. However, when delivering the fifth body, a situation occurred that neither of them wanted to see.
The dead body belonged to a young man, and this time they were going to send him back to his parents .
But when they arrived at the place, they found out that the parents of the corpse had died of an acute illness half a year ago. Now, no one was willing to accept the corpse. It was not that there were no other relatives, but they were not willing to pay the three dollars for it.
In the end, there was no other way, Simu could only accept it and gave the body to the relatives of the deceased without asking for the balance.
After leaving Xiangdong, everyone's face was filled with unhappiness.
Jiale was very understanding. Three dollars was not a small amount. Simu sometimes took on jobs of exorcising ghosts, which only cost a few dollars each time. Three dollars was enough for him and Simu to buy two sets of good clothes.
However, such things are inevitable when driving corpses, and one can only blame oneself for being unlucky.
It is April and spring is warming the earth.
Simu and Jiale walked for another week, and they had already entered the territory of Xiangbei.
At this time, Jiale already had six corpses behind him.
"Jia Le, you are now a master. You should know that I usually only carry six or seven items of goods each time. After this trip, if you want to inherit my skills in the future, you will be far from complete."
Jiale looked at Simu and wanted to tell Simu directly that he would not make a living from this in the future. However, when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he took them back. He couldn't be too sure. The job of corpse-carrying was still very promising. The world was so chaotic. If he didn't steal or rob, he might have to do the job of corpse-carrying in the future. It was possible to do it part-time.
Just as Simu said, encountering ghosts and monsters is only a low-probability event. After arriving in Xiangbei, Jiale and Simu successfully settled the remaining thirteen clients, and nothing happened again.
There were only thirteen customers, and I only collected thirty-three dollars, and no one paid the balance for the two shipments.
Jia Le silently remembered in his heart that if he really wanted to drive corpses in the future, he would have to check whether the customers had the ability to pay the balance. He couldn't make a wasted trip. This time he drove a lot and it didn't seem obvious. If he usually drove six or seven corpses, and now there were three who hadn't paid the balance, he would be at a big loss.
On the way back, Simu didn't plan to go back empty-handed.
"Come on, Master, I will take you to see an uncle."
Upon hearing this, Jiale knew that this was another designated place for picking up express parcels.
But there seems to be some problems with this charity cemetery.
The master and the disciple stood outside the charity cemetery, listening to the crackling sounds inside, and felt a little hesitant.
"Master, something seems to be wrong!"
