Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

buzzing...

One, two, three...

In the blink of an eye, ghostly spirits appeared on Chen Yushu's body.

Upon their arrival, they immediately spotted Chen Yushu and respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, Master!"

"Alright! Wait here, we'll enter the altar later."

Chen Yushu nodded.

His gaze fell upon the altar.

At this moment, the altar, after being arranged by Xiao Hong, had taken on some shape, but because no magical power was infused into it, the altar was merely an empty shell without any spirit or harmony with heaven and earth.

However, the moment he made his move and summoned the evil spirits, the commotion immediately attracted the attention of the group of people in the distance.

After all, the magical fluctuations he emitted when casting the spell were too obvious.

The appearance of evil spirits such as the evil-faced ghost and the flying blood zombie caused an extremely dense amount of yin energy.

Li Xin, Zhou Zhao, and those ghost spirits were all quite powerful, so they naturally sensed it immediately.

The key point is that this aura was clearly outside their plan.

In other words, it is very likely that this is Li Yangyang's backup plan, or reinforcements.

"Zhou Hengyang, go and take care of them."

He spoke quickly.

"Yes, Great Elder!"

Zhou Hengyang, also an elder of the Seven Gods Sect, ranked fourth, one title higher than Li Yangyang.

Their strength has also increased significantly, reaching the true level of the Night Wanderer Realm.

The seven divine envoys of the Seven Gods Sect are all powerful figures at the Dao Realm level.

However, only the top four are cultivators at the Night Wanderer Realm or above. The remaining three, including Li Yangyang who ranked fifth, are all at the Dao Entry and Nascent Soul Realm.

The gap in strength is actually quite large.

However, the latter three were all recruited by the Seven Gods Sect's Divine Maiden and given great authority. In a sense, they were specifically used by the Divine Maiden to counterbalance the first four elders.

It's for the sake of balance.

Previously, with it in charge, everything was fine, and the elders dared not act recklessly.

However, despite its two-year seclusion, the internal strife within the Seven Gods Sect did not subside; instead, it intensified, escalating to the point of a life-or-death struggle over a single mineral deposit.

Upon receiving the order, Zhou Hengyang did not hesitate at all and quickly headed in the direction where Chen Yushu was.

On the other side, Chen Yushu did not pause at all.

After summoning the evil spirits such as the Evil-Faced Ghost, the Flying Blood Zombie, and Zhu Jiuzhi, he immediately stood in front of the altar and began casting spells!

At this point, his method of opening the altar was still at a high level of mastery.

However, the surge in his cultivation level also greatly enhanced his strength and confidence.

Standing before the altar, he swiftly began to cast his spell, chanting in a low voice, "Heaven has three wonders: the sun, the moon, and the stars, which penetrate heaven and earth, startling ghosts and gods. Today, I, Chen Yushu, open this altar to perform the ritual, to vanquish evil and eliminate wickedness! So be it!"

The voice just fell.

buzzing...

In the void, a terrifying and oppressive force descended, forming a special spiritual bond with the entire altar.

In the hazy distance, one could even see a continuous palace in the void, as if this special power, unique to the altar, was bestowed from that palace.

"I've always known that when a spirit is borrowed from an altar, it's very likely that it's not the power of heaven and earth that's being borrowed."

The spell's grade does not match the power it can borrow.

Now it seems that it is indeed the case.

The power of heaven and earth is only one-tenth of its total power; the true source of power lies in this palace hidden in the endless void.

But I wonder, is this palace the legendary Heavenly Court?

Chen Yushu withdrew his gaze from the endless void, his thoughts racing, but this did not delay his casting of the spell.

"Where is the King of Yelang?!"

Chen Yushu spoke in a low voice.

"Little is here!"

King Yelang quickly emerged from the horde of ghosts. His body was not large, and even appeared somewhat thin, but his aura was extremely powerful and chilling.

With just one step, the ground seemed to freeze over, revealing a distinct layer of white frost.

This is an outward manifestation of the intense cold.

"I hereby appoint you as the Left Divine General of the Spirit Guardian under my altar, granting you power to aid me in vanquishing evil!"

Chen Yushu gave a low shout, then reached out and touched it.

"Yes!"

The King of Yelang immediately responded loudly.

The next moment, he felt a powerful force, not his own, pouring into his body.

In an instant, its power was continuously increased, and its soul body also became stronger and more solid.

Late stage of the Demonic level, peak stage of the Demonic level, Cataclysmic level...

King Yelang himself was a ghost spirit at the late stage of the Chong level, and a powerful figure at the King level. In terms of true combat strength, he was definitely among the top level of the Chong level.

At this moment, as his power soared, his cultivation level also rose accordingly, until he broke through to the limit of the Demon level and truly stepped into the Disaster level.

Even it felt an incredibly powerful sensation.

"Who dares to set up an altar here to summon evil spirits?"
Die! "

Just then, Zhou Hengyang arrived.

With a low shout, he reached out and summoned a high-grade magic weapon, which transformed into a stream of light and shot straight out.

He rushed towards Chen Yushu.

Chen Yushu's expression remained unchanged as he spoke again in a low voice, "Where is the Flying Blood Zombie?"

The moment the other party responded, he spoke again: "I hereby appoint you as the Right General of the Spirit Suppression, granting you power to eradicate all evil!"

Then, with a flick of his hand, a terrifying force descended upon it.

The Flying Blood Zombie was already at the mid-stage of the Demonic level, and now, with the blessing of the altar, its power surged dramatically.

Mid-stage of the Demonic Rank, Late-stage of the Demonic Rank, Peak of the Demonic Rank...

After all, his strength was still inferior to that of the King of Yelang. After being blessed by the altar and reaching the peak of the Demon level, he had stagnated and failed to cross that threshold to reach the Disaster level.

Even so, its aura surged dramatically, emanating a terrifying presence that chilled anyone who saw it.

Just then, Zhou Hengyang's attack arrived. Without any visible movement, he flashed and appeared in front of Chen Yushu, reaching out to strike.

bump!
The superior-grade magic weapon flying sword paused slightly, and the evil-level sword was slapped away by him, returning empty-handed.

"how is this possible?"

Zhou Hengyang's expression changed as he finally sensed the power of these two ghost spirits, which were far stronger than any of the other deified ghost spirits that had come with them.

That chilling aura and terrifying power gave him a fleeting feeling of facing the Divine Maiden. It should be known that the Divine Maiden was a genuine mid-stage Calamity-level ghost spirit, possessing formidable power, easily ranking among the top three of all the divine ghost spirits in Tianling County.

Just then, the King of Yelang also made his move.

His attack speed was actually not slow, but since the Flying Blood Zombie broke through to the Demon level, he directly mastered a talent divine ability, the Blood Escape Technique, which made him extremely fast.

So although it seems to be slow to act, it actually acts immediately. It's just that it's not fast enough, so its attack is only truly unleashed at this moment.

A black light transformed into a streak of light and shot straight towards Zhou Hengyang.

Fortunately, he was a cautious person by nature and had prepared a high-grade defensive artifact in advance to protect himself.

bump!
The dark light struck his defensive artifact, unleashing a terrifying power that caused the artifact's spiritual light to dim rapidly, consuming a full ninety percent of its energy.

"So strong?"

Zhou Hengyang's face turned deathly pale.

The defensive artifact he possessed was a genuine high-grade artifact, something he had accumulated over three years before acquiring at a cultivator's auction. It was said that even a True Person Realm expert would have to put in considerable effort to break it.

As a result, the ghostly spirit in front of them only needed one move to deplete ninety percent of its power.

Startled, Zhou Hengyang dared not delay and quickly took out a purple-gold talisman from his storage bag, activating it swiftly.

boom!
The void trembled, and layers of lightning power gathered within it.

Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman!
It is a genuine high-grade spirit talisman, extremely powerful, and has a strong restraining effect on undead creatures.

The Flying Blood Zombie and the King of Yelang were also startled by what they saw.

Lightning magic does indeed have a very strong restraining effect on them.

However, the moment the lightning struck, they felt a sense of relief.

Compared to its master's lightning magic, its power is far inferior.

They didn't even try to resist. The bolts of lightning struck them, causing their yin energy to fluctuate violently, but they couldn't harm their very core.

They knew all too well the extent to which the power of lightning could harm them.

The master's lightning magic was simply unstoppable.

However, the lightning magic released by this high-grade talisman was almost like a tickle to King Yelang, who had already reached the Disaster level.

It withstood several blows, but its body shot straight to Zhou Hengyang like a streak of light and slammed down hard.

boom!
The opponent's body was immediately sent flying. The defensive artifact that had been blocking his way was sent flying, its spiritual energy extremely dim, and it was directly corroded by the Yin energy, its spiritual power greatly reduced.

Then, in the next instant, the figure of the flying blood zombie appeared behind it without a sound, and stabbed its claw into its back.

puff!
It pierced through him from both ends, crushing his heart.

"what……"

Zhou Hengyang roared in terror, his soul flying out in a panic, quickly heading towards the direction where the First Elder and Second Elder were.

Faster, faster, faster...too fast.

The Flying Blood Zombie and the Night King, both ghost spirits who had reached the King level in the Underworld, saw their strength more than double under the power of the altar.
With the two ghosts joining forces, they could easily kill a cultivator at the Night Wanderer Realm.

"Trying to escape?"
Did you ask me?

Chen Yushu glanced at Zhou Hengyang, whose soul had flown away, but his expression remained unchanged. He then pointed with his finger.

Be sure to protect the divine light!

In an instant, the other person's figure froze in mid-air, unable to move.

Upon seeing this, the flying blood zombie beside him flashed forward and rushed in front of him again, extending a claw.

"Ah... Elder, Second Elder, save me..."

Zhou Hengyang roared, his face showing utter terror and despair.

puff!
But it was too late.

In its divine soul state, the solidity of its soul is simply incomparable to that of a peak-level demon spirit.

With a soft "poof," his soul was completely crushed.

Their souls scattered and vanished, never to exist again.

At the scene, only a small, sword-shaped embryo remained, which fell to the ground with a thud.

That was the embryo of the magical artifact he had refined.

Once a cultivator of immortal arts reaches the Daoist Night Wandering Realm, they gradually begin to prepare to refine their own natal magic weapon.

Generally, swords are the primary material, but there are also knives and spears. Those with confidence or abundant resources will seek cauldrons or bells as magical treasures, and the even stronger will choose pagodas.

Because these magical artifacts are often larger in size, they can store and smelt more materials, and of course, their power is also much stronger.

However, this also requires more resources.

"Damn it!
Where did this kid come from?

Not far away, Elder Li Xin, who was constantly attacking Li Yangyang's formation, saw this and his face instantly turned cold.

Zhou Zhao, who was standing to the side, also looked extremely unpleasant.

They had anticipated countless scenarios and made countless contingency plans, but they never imagined that someone would kill one of their top combatants in just a moment.

On their side, they were about to break through the formation and could rush in and kill Li Yangyang at any moment.

Once the enemy is dead, everything will be over, and their mission will be a great success.

But on the other hand, the threat posed by Chen Yushu is very real.

Just hesitating.

They saw ghosts and spirits transforming into streaks of light and rushing straight towards them.

The one in the lead, in particular, was imposing and extremely powerful.

"Disaster spirit?"

Li Xin was immediately startled, never expecting that a calamity spirit would actually intervene.

Not to mention that next to the Calamity Spirit, there are also peak-level Ghost Spirits of the Suicide level, and even the others that are slightly weaker are all at the Suicide level.

Even though the spirits like the Pig Demon Elephant and Zhu Jiuzhi couldn't receive the same level of enhancement as the Flying Blood Zombie and the Night King, they still experienced some improvement after the altar was opened.

Even the weakest evil-faced ghost, the red-haired corpse king, has now reached the early stage of the "Spirit" level.

This simultaneous attack instantly brought them to their feet.

"what……"

Especially the Flying Blood Zombie, its speed was too fast, and its strength was also incredibly powerful. With just a flash, it rushed to the side of one of the mid-stage Demon-level Sealed God Ghost Spirits. With a wave of its hand, the opponent's soul body instantly shattered, and only a scream could be heard.

Zhu Jiuzhi and Zhuge Xun also made their moves at this time. The two had worked together in Qinghe County for a long time and had a great understanding with each other. They rushed towards a mid-stage evil spirit and fought it back and forth. In a short time, they gained the upper hand.

As for the King of Yelang, he naturally faced one of the two powerful experts at the Day Travel Realm.

If he were only at the late stage of the Demon level, he would find it troublesome to face any one of them, and might not even be a match for them.

After all, those at the Dao Entry Sun Tour Realm level not only possess powerful abilities, but their souls are also filled with extremely strong pure Yang energy, making ordinary ghosts and spirits dare not even approach them.

Because that is something that truly has the power to restrain them.

Even more so than thunder magic, it makes them wary.

But now, it is at the Disaster level, its soul is powerful, and its soul body is almost solidified to the extreme, so it naturally has a certain resistance to pure Yang energy. (End of this chapter)
