Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 221 Little Red Breakthrough, Soul Body Solidifies, Manifests During the Day
When the two of them visited last time, they naturally left their addresses.

They also believe in ghosts and can see Xiao Hong, so when Xiao Hong goes there, she will naturally not be troubled.

"Okay, Brother Yushu!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hong nodded quickly and agreed.

Then, it skipped and hopped away.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yushu turned his gaze to the two corpses in his courtyard. Without any hesitation, he began to search them.

Among the items found on Tian Yong, besides some silver and other valuables, there was also an identity token marked with the number '97'.

As for Yang Xi, he was relatively wealthy. He had over a thousand taels of silver notes, two old artifacts, a magic flying sword, a small bag containing a dozen soul beads, and an identity token similar to Tian Yong's, but marked with the characters '85'.

Soul beads were of little use to him at the moment, and he didn't care about them, thinking he would give them to Xiao Hong as snacks when she came back.

Chen Yushu examined the identity tokens for a while, guessing that they were ancestral tablets indicating the status of the individuals.

For example, Tian Yong is ranked ninety-seventh.

Yang Xi, on the other hand, is ranked eighty-fifth.

Of course, he had no way of knowing the specifics.

They didn't pay any attention to it.

What he really valued was Yang Xi's flying sword.

"I originally wanted to learn that flying sword technique."

He was still a little disappointed because he didn't have a suitable flying sword.

Unexpectedly, Yang Xi came over and just happened to give me a bite.

Although this flying sword isn't of very high quality, it's probably only a mid-grade magic weapon.

But it's enough for me to use for a short period of time.

At least, it can now unleash a certain degree of power when using the Flying Sword Technique.

Chen Yushu examined the flying sword and felt satisfied.

The main feature is that this flying sword is light and small. Once it is used, it is not only extremely fast, but also incomparably sharp. It can indeed be considered a good sword.

For him, it was just about enough.

I casually put it away.

Then Chen Yushu patted his waist.

Zhu Jiuzhi appeared in front of him in a flash.

"Dispose of these two bodies properly, don't make a mess of the yard."

Chen Yushu casually gave an order and then turned back to his room.

The body needs to be disposed of.

He didn't want the servants to wake up the next day and see the two corpses, which could frighten them into serious trouble.

But he himself naturally didn't want to do such dirty and tiring work.

Fortunately, he still had ghosts he could command.

As a top-tier evil spirit, Zhu Jiuzhi could naturally dispose of these corpses without anyone noticing.

As for reporting it to the authorities?

Chen Yushu had never even considered it.

Regardless of whether the government is in charge.

Even if he were to actually take charge, it would inevitably involve forces like the evil cult, causing immense trouble. They would come knocking on his door every few days, which would be incredibly annoying for him.

It's better to just deal with it directly.

It also saves trouble.

of course.

He also knew that since the evil cult had approached him, he was bound to face a lot of trouble.

However, compared to the troubles on the official side, he naturally preferred to act in his own way.

……

Return to the room.

A short while later, Xiaohong returned.

"Brother Yushu, I have not failed you!"

Then, she skipped and hopped over to Chen Yushu and said with a grin.

"Okay, this is your reward."

Chen Yushu nodded with a smile and handed the soul beads to Xiao Hong.

Xiao Hong quickly accepted it with a happy expression, saying, "Thank you, Brother Yu Shu."

Then he ran to the side and started counting happily.

One, two, three...

Compared to Xiaoyin, Xiaohong, due to her background, knows more characters and can at least count numbers up to ten.

Then, when she counted to nine, she suddenly picked up a soul bead and stared at it with wide eyes.

This bead is clearly different from other soul beads.

Not only is it larger, but the energy it contains is also purer, containing abundant spiritual particles.

Then, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide and swallow it in one gulp.

Instantly, a look of enjoyment appeared on her little face.

"good to eat!"

Xiao Hong smacked her lips, her face full of satisfaction.

Then, she felt her whole body begin to burn, her soul was boiling, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

But her attention was still focused on the soul beads, so she simply turned around and continued counting them.

Eleven, thirteen, twelfth, seventeenth...

She counted them one by one.

Thirteen.

many.

We can eat like this for a few more days.

Xiao Hong happily took out the small jar that she originally used to store the soul beads and put them into it one by one.

That little jar was given to her by her grandfather as a special container for storing soul beads. It may not look big, but it actually has quite a lot of space inside. If she eats one a day, it can last for at least half a year.

But now, the soul beads in that jar are almost full again.

The main problem is that Chen Yushu would give her some every now and then, and gradually she felt that her jar was getting a little small and was about to overflow.

Xiao Hong was secretly distressed.

Then she rubbed her belly and muttered to herself, "It's a pity that Little Red's belly is so small; she can only eat one a day."

"Any more and I'll be stuffed..."

As she spoke, she felt her lower abdomen become rounder and she became more distressed. "That soul bead from earlier seems to have gotten a bit bigger, and Little Red is already feeling the strain."

"No, I need to exercise to help with digestion."

Then Xiaohong quickly stood up and began to exercise, making cooing sounds.

If you look closely, you'll notice that her movements are somewhat like the Medicine King's Stance Exercise and also somewhat like the Medicine King's Locking Force Exercise.

It just feels a little awkward.

It was because she watched Chen Yushu practice martial arts for so long that she unconsciously imitated and learned his movements.

After each time she finished consuming the Soul Pearl, she would practice like this.

There was no effect, of course.

But she enjoyed it immensely.

But this time, she didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she could feel her strength actually starting to increase.

Even the soul began to vibrate violently, as if a power was about to overflow.

After Chen Yushu tossed the Soul Pearl to Xiao Hong, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Then, continuing with the previous cultivation steps, he began to focus his attention on the Seven-Colored Glazed Divine Light.

Previously, he had already begun cultivating the Seven-Colored Glazed Divine Light.

As a result, the two members of the evil cult suddenly barged in, which caused the delay.

By this time, he had already dealt with both of them, so he naturally focused his attention back on cultivating his magic. He didn't even notice Zhu Jiuzhi's return, nor did he notice Xiao Hong's sudden change.

"Following my previous cultivation method."

This seven-colored glazed divine light can also be divided into several segments for familiarization and mastery.

However, this seven-colored glazed divine light has seven veins, one after another.

However, it can only be divided into seven sections.

Although it's still quite difficult, it's countless times easier than the entire training process.

After some analysis, Chen Yushu divided the structure of this spell rune into seven sections. Then, he began to familiarize himself with and master the first section.

One spell rune structure, two spell rune structures, three...

Chen Yushu's spiritual power surged, and he began to condense the corresponding spell rune structures one by one.

Then, when condensing the seventh one, because of the relatively unfamiliarity with the structure of this spell rune, there was a problem with the connection, and the spell rune structure was slightly deformed.

As soon as the structure of the spell runes changed, its special connection with heaven and earth immediately dissipated.

This spell, naturally, failed to be cast, and the entire thing shattered, turning into ashes.

"continue!"

Undeterred, Chen Yushu began trying again.

Two times, three times.

After several attempts, Chen Yushu suddenly sensed that something was wrong with the surrounding spiritual particles.

He felt that the surrounding spiritual particles were very active, as if a large number of spiritual particles were rushing towards the room where he was.

"This is……"

Almost instantly, he realized what was happening and quickly looked toward the source of the active mental particles.

"It's Xiao Hong."

Upon seeing this, Chen Yushu's expression changed, and he quickly ran over.

Zhu Jiuzhi stood to the side, nervously watching over them.

At this moment, Xiao Hong was lying on the ground, her body completely hunched over.

Her eyes were half-open, as if she was in some discomfort. When she saw Chen Yushu, she opened her mouth and said, "Brother Yushu, my stomach is a little bloated."

Am I going to die?

"Don't talk nonsense."

Chen Yushu quickly waved his hand.

He and Xiao Hong share a special connection.

If Xiao Hong is truly in danger, he will naturally sense it.

At this moment, he could sense that although Xiao Hong's condition was somewhat off, her soul was actually very stable and healthy, and even showed signs of vigorous growth.

This state doesn't seem to indicate that there's anything wrong with her health; rather, it seems more like...

"Master, Xiao Hong is breaking through."

Her soul is stable; she should be safe.

Just then, Zhu Jiuzhi, who was standing to the side, quickly and respectfully spoke up.

As a veteran ghost and a top-tier evil spirit, it naturally had a lot of experience and was very clear about Xiao Hong's situation. To avoid worrying Chen Yushu, it quickly explained.

"I know!"

Chen Yushu nodded, then comforted Xiao Hong, saying, "You heard it too, you're just breaking through."

Once that breakthrough is achieved, it will be at the level of an evil spirit.

It's much stronger than before.

"Am I going to die? Am I about to break through?"

Xiao Hong was taken aback, blinked, and then her eyes lit up. She said, "Does that mean I'll be able to have my own body again, and that I can appear during the day?"

Evil spirits.

Compared to the time when the spirit was a vengeful ghost, the solidity of the soul will be greatly improved.

If one wants to manifest, one can solidify one's soul body, which can then be seen by normal people, revealing one's true form.

It can also appear directly during the day.

As long as it's not exposed to direct sunlight, it's not a problem if it happens for a short period of time.

"Correct!"

Chen Yushu nodded.

"So, am I one step ahead of Xiaoyin again?"
snort!
She also said that if we meet again, she must be stronger than me and become an evil spirit faster.

I'm about to become an evil spirit.

He must be stronger than her.

Next time I see her, I make sure she bows to me and calls me "big sister!"

Xiao Hong's originally worried face immediately became excited, and she looked radiant.

At that very moment, the mental particles around her rapidly condensed and swarmed toward her.

And this time.

Chen Yushu was not idle either; he quickly took out several evil spirit essences from his storage bag.

These evil spirits were left behind when he killed evil spirits before.

Immediately afterwards, he acted swiftly, his mental energy subtly extracting all the spiritual particles from the evil spirits' essences and controlling them to rush towards Xiao Hong.

Under his control, all the negative emotions originally contained within the evil spirit's essence were suppressed and refined by him.

Having reached the state of constant stillness in meditation, he could withstand not only the negative emotions contained within the evil spirits and souls, but also the negative emotions contained within the demonic soul beads. He could even completely eliminate and refine them, turning them into pure spiritual particle energy.

He can even extract the life-giving fluid from it.

You should know that the Vitality Elixir is something that countless cultivators with three incense sticks of cultivation dream of.

With the help of the Vitality Elixir, their chances of breaking through from the Three Incense Sticks Realm to the Dao Realm will increase significantly. They might even be able to endure the torment of being burned alive, thus forging their divine soul and stepping into the Dao Realm.

At this moment, all the dense spiritual particles surged in, and most of them were absorbed by Xiao Hong.

This immediately greatly enhanced her breakthrough efficiency.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

One stick of incense, two sticks of incense, three sticks of incense...

time flies.

suddenly.

Xiao Hong's aura suddenly intensified, and her soul seemed to have undergone a special transformation and baptism, instantly becoming solid.

If an ordinary person were to appear at this moment, they would almost immediately see a cute, fair-skinned little girl suddenly appear on the previously empty ground, right in front of everyone.

It was Xiao Hong.

Breakthrough!
Having completely broken through to the level of evil spirits, one can solidify and manifest one's soul, revealing one's true form.

Moreover, when an ordinary person touches her, aside from feeling a little cold, they can actually feel her fleshy and soft.

It's just like a real person.

Evil spirit! Evil spirit!
As soon as Xiao Hong broke through, although her soul body was still a little unstable, she was overjoyed and skipped over to Chen Yushu. She reached out her hand as usual and said, "Brother Yushu."

Can you touch me?

"of course can."

Chen Yushu also squeezed her hand. Although it was indeed not very warm and was a bit cool, it was real and no longer like before, where a little force would pass through it.

"Then I will in the future."

It can also appear during the day.

I'm so happy!

Xiao Hong immediately became excited.

Upon seeing Zhu Jiuzhi, she quickly ran over and said, "Grandpa Zhu, please touch Xiaohong and see if Xiaohong's body is real."

Perhaps she was running too fast, because her foot tripped on a small step and she fell hard.

But she didn't feel any pain at all; instead, she became even happier and more excited.

This proves that one's soul has become so solid that it is like a physical body, and that it can actually trip over the steps.

In the past, her soul could have passed through directly.
