Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 114 The Scissors Prison? (First Update!)

In the dimly lit ghost cellar, spiritual blood turned into mist, surrounding the tall ghost like a net.

Zheng Que continuously made hand seals, causing the blood mist to ripple slightly and transform into countless tiny runes.

Sensing what was about to happen, the tall ghost began to struggle desperately, its movements creating ripples in the blood that had accumulated on the ground.

However, suppressed by Kulan's Yin magic [evil power], he exerted all his strength but could not even get up.

The spirit blood runes began to be branded one by one into the body of the tall ghost.

despair.

The moment the first rune appeared on the tall ghost, a chilling soul wind suddenly blew over!
As the soul wind swept through, the spirit blood rune was instantly carried away, disappearing into the shadows.

This gust of wind was icy cold, like thousands of steel knives scraping across the ground, making one involuntarily shudder and feel a chill seep into one's very soul.

Zheng Que frowned immediately when his spell was interrupted by the soul wind.

Immediately afterwards, the tall ghost that was lying on the ground suddenly leaped up and grabbed at Zheng Que with both claws!
boom! ! !
With a muffled thud, Ku Lan, who was standing beside Zheng Que, raised her hand and punched the tall ghost, sending it flying backward and crashing heavily into the mountain wall.

At the same moment, a thick hemp rope wrapped around the ghost's neck, instantly lifting it up.

Protected by his two ghost servants, the tall, ferocious ghost was subdued once again before it could even touch Zheng Que in its premeditated attack.

Seeing this, Zheng Que took a deep breath and prepared to continue using the [Ghost Control Technique].

But at that moment, Qing Li coldly said, "Human brat, something is causing trouble. Your magic is useless!"

Is something causing trouble?

Zheng Que was slightly taken aback. Just as he was about to ask about the specific situation, a low, hoarse voice suddenly came from the depths of the ghost cellar.

"The three of you are quite strong, and you have already gained sentience, so why do you still need to risk your lives for a human?"

"We are the true kind!"

"I can now help the three of you break free from this human's enslavement spell. In exchange, you three will help me reclaim my position as the master soul!"

"At that time, this entire area within a thousand miles will be our paradise!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another mighty gust of soul wind blew from the depths of the ghost cellar.

This time, the soul wind was larger than any before, like fine steel needles constantly pricking Zheng Que, making him extremely uncomfortable.

This gust of wind seemed to be blowing not at his physical body, but at his soul!

As the wind swept by, Zheng Que quickly realized what was happening and immediately opened his palm to look at his own hand.

His palm was clean, and the character "令" written with spiritual blood had disappeared.

His [Ghost Control Technique] was forcibly erased by that gust of soul wind!

Zheng Que frowned and immediately understood that the talking ghost inside not only possessed complete intelligence, but was also related to the magical artifact he was looking for!
Furthermore, is the opponent's ability to erase the [Ghost Control Technique] mark their own ghost skill?

Or is it the effect of that magical artifact?
Just then, that deep, hoarse voice rang out again: "The spell that enslaved you has been lifted, you three."

"I urge the three of you to quickly slay this human, and then come to discuss important matters with me!" "Not just any wandering ghost can receive my personal summons."

"But the three of you are qualified!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Que was furious. This ghostly creature hiding in the shadows was actually trying to sow discord between his ghostly servants!

His face darkened, and he was about to speak when Qingli beside him shouted angrily, "You ignorant, lowly bastard, are you blind?"

"When did this old lady start working for this human brat?"

"This old lady is this human brat's grandfather! She's your ancestor, you blind dog!"

At the same time, Ku Lan spun his black umbrella and coldly rebuked, "A mere brat from the [Scissors Prison] dares to spout such nonsense in front of my young master!"

"This is utterly outrageous and deserves to be cast into the eighteenth level of hell!"

"Don't think you're just a lowly imp from the Scissors Prison. Even the imps from the Iron Tree Prison and the Mirror of Retribution would kneel down and obey my young master's orders!"

What?
[Scissors Prison]?
Zheng Que was about to give the order for Qing Li and Ku Lan to rush in, drag the ghost out, and kill it in front of him, but when he heard that it was the "Scissors Prison," all the anger in his heart vanished instantly.

At this moment, Niannu, who had been silent until now, also spoke up arrogantly: "You ignorant brat from the Scissors Prison, how dare you disrespect the adults! You're simply courting death!"

"Get out of there right now, kneel down and kowtow a hundred times to the magistrate to confess your sins. Out of consideration for our kind, I will plead for you before the magistrate and give you, you ignorant brat, a quick death!"

This……

Stop right there!
Stop talking!

If the ghosts of the "Scissors Prison" really escape, how will I escape?
Zheng Que was extremely anxious. He knew that the opportunity in Shujiabao would be very dangerous, but he never expected that it would hide the ghost of the [Scissors Prison]!

Similar to Zheng Que's reaction, the cultivator locked inside the fence behind the stone door deep in the Ghost Cellar was also stunned by the constant shouts and insults coming from outside.

At this moment, the bleeding from the wound on his leg had stopped, and most of the runes engraved all over his body had lost their spiritual light, leaving only a few faint lights that flickered occasionally.

The obscure, sealed aura that had enveloped the body was slowly dissipating.

However, since the seal has not been truly broken, he cannot unleash even a fraction of his full power.

Just now, in order to break the enslavement spell on those three ghost servants, I almost used up all the Yin energy I had accumulated over a long period of time!
Now, instead of being grateful to him, the three ghost servants called him "little devil" and cursed him inside and out.
The highest cultivation level among those three ghost servants was only the sixth level of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison].

The fact that they could discern his former level of power proves that those three ghost servants were indeed very strong, far surpassing ordinary ghosts.

only……

A mere "Scissors Prison"?
Imp?

Never seen the world?
Should we make him go out and kowtow a hundred times to confess his sins?
boom!
Before the locked-up cultivator could think any further, the stone door was pushed open, and a figure in white robes and black hair barged in.

The locked-up cultivator looked up at the aggressive female ghost and was about to continue his persuasion when he saw the white-clad female ghost suddenly raise her hand, point two fingers at her brow, and then draw out an extremely mysterious symbol, which she then pointed directly at his brow.

Whoosh!
The next moment, the mysterious symbol transformed into a streak of black light and instantly disappeared into the brow of the locked cultivator.

The cultivator's locked consciousness instantly fell into chaos. In the hazy state, a disdainful voice seemed to ring in his ears: "You unruly dog, next time you see me, you'd better call me Lady Qing Li!"
