Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 124 Encounter Battle. (Second Update!)

Before she could finish speaking, just as Qing Li was about to continue her attack, Jia Bin, who was pinned to the ground, suddenly began to fade rapidly, like ink being washed away by rain.

Immediately afterwards, Qingli's hand went empty, and Jia Bin's entire body disappeared.

At the same moment, Jia Miaoniang, who was being suspended in mid-air by Niannu, also began to fade rapidly, eventually disappearing without a trace.

In just a few breaths, the entire passageway was empty, leaving only the two female hangers-on.

Seeing this, Qingli was furious. She quickly sensed her surroundings and immediately discovered that the Jia siblings were no longer in this passageway, but were still in this Shu Family Fort!

At this moment, Niannu came to Qingli's side and respectfully asked, "Lady Qingli, shall we continue the pursuit?"

Qingli replied without hesitation, "Chase!"

As she spoke, she seemed to remember something else and added, "That human child is too weak; if something happens to him, it will be very troublesome."

"Go find that human brat."

"As for the two snacks, I'll go after them myself."

Niannu immediately replied, "Yes, Lady Qingli."

So, Qingli's figure flashed, and she chased after him alone.

※※※

Shujiabao.

Xiao Yiyang swiftly traversed the passageway leading to the Ghost Fighting Arena.

As he looked ahead and saw the exit appear, Xiao Yiyang's clothes suddenly seemed to be pulled by something, and his body, which was rushing forward, stopped abruptly, unable to move forward any further.

At the same moment, he heard a somewhat familiar voice: "Save...me..."

The voice was filled with intense pain and overwhelming despair, and it had clearly changed tone, but Xiao Yiyang still immediately recognized that it was the voice of the cultivator named "Li Li'an".

Xiao Yiyang couldn't help but shake his head slightly. Compared to the fake Li Li'an, this real Li Li'an was far inferior!

Didn't I just use the other party to shield myself from a troublesome situation?
As a result, the other party was actually assimilated by that troublesome person!

In a flash, Xiao Yiyang didn't turn around. He immediately closed his eyes, took out a dusty gray talisman, and threw it behind him while simultaneously casting a hand seal: "Break!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the talisman he had thrown out burst forth with an incredibly bright light.

The light appeared abruptly, illuminating the entire passageway like lightning. Accompanying the light was a blazing heat, like concentrated yang energy, spreading out in a mighty torrent, dispelling all the surrounding chill.

"Ah ah ah..."

A bloodcurdling scream immediately came from behind Xiao Yiyang, and the thing that was holding onto his clothes immediately let go, as if it had been burned.

In an instant, Xiao Yiyang felt that his body could move again.

Without hesitation, he quickened his pace and rushed towards the exit of the tunnel.

Bang!
Pushing open the door in front of him, Xiao Yiyang stepped into the small round hall.

The small round hall was empty at this moment, without a single person in sight, but the ground was covered with shards of pottery. These shards were dull in color, mostly black, red and gray, and judging from the material and texture, they were just ordinary pottery. However, each shard exuded a strong yin energy, and the temperature in the entire small round hall dropped significantly.

These appear to be fragments of the [Yin Vessel]...

Before Xiao Yiyang could finish thinking about it, he saw a slender figure suddenly rush out from behind the door of the simple house among the five fan-shaped doors.

It was a young girl dressed in white with black hair, her clothes exquisite, her black hair tied up high, and a small token hanging from her waist. Her demeanor and appearance were lifelike, but there were deep purple bruises on her neck. Xiao Yiyang narrowed his eyes slightly. This was Zheng Que's ghost servant!

However, the intensity of the female ghost's yin energy was only at the sixth level of the [Tongue-Pulling Hell] just now, how come it has suddenly become the seventh level of the [Tongue-Pulling Hell]?

At the same time, Qing Li also saw Xiao Yiyang. She was originally going to find the Jia siblings, but as soon as she saw Xiao Yiyang, a malicious smirk appeared on her lips. She stopped and said to Xiao Yiyang, "You human brat, don't say that I didn't give you a chance!"

"If you don't run away by the time I count to three, you're just offering yourself up as my snack!"

"one two Three!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qing Li immediately charged towards Xiao Yiyang.

At this moment, Xiao Yiyang was wondering why Zheng Que wasn't here when he saw the ghost servant who looked like a young girl suddenly make a strange sound. The syllables were obscure and hard to understand, and he didn't know what she was saying. Then she rushed directly towards him.

Xiao Yiyang immediately took out a talisman with a yellow background and red patterns, threw it towards Qingli, and at the same time made a hand seal: "Explode!"

boom! ! !
When the talisman flew close to Qingli, it immediately exploded with a bang, and flames and smoke filled the small round hall, obscuring the view.

Before the raging flames had completely dissipated, four slender, fair arms emerged from the depths of the smoke, crossed like scissors, and reached out to grab Xiao Yiyang from four directions.

Xiao Yiyang immediately dodged to the side.

Boom boom boom...

The arms are incredibly fast and powerful.

After its grab missed, it crashed heavily to the ground, instantly creating deep craters in the solid floor tiles and sending up a cloud of flying sand and stones.

After dodging several attacks, Xiao Yiyang spotted an opportunity and quickly cast a series of hand seals, causing his spiritual energy to fluctuate rhythmically.

However, before he could finish casting the spell, a high-pitched and sharp soul howl suddenly rang in his ears.

"what!!!"

The soul's howl was like a knife, piercing straight into the mind.

Xiao Yiyang's eyes, hidden behind his mask, were momentarily stunned, his hand seals faltered, and at the same time, a thick hemp rope quietly fell and encircled his neck.

But just as the rope began to tighten, Xiao Yiyang quickly recovered, his figure swaying as he instantly moved to the side.

Whoosh!
The next moment, the rope suddenly tightened and rose, but it pulled up empty air.

Just as Xiao Yiyang was about to make another move, several intertwined blue and black ghost hands suddenly appeared beneath his feet, quickly grabbing at his legs.

He hurriedly leaped upwards, but while his body was still in mid-air, four long arms stretched across the circular hall and attacked him again.

Ping Pong Pong...

For a moment, Xiao Yiyang dodged left and right, unable to find the slightest opportunity to make a move!

His expression behind the mask gradually became serious. This "vengeful spirit" possessed far too many ghostly skills, making it difficult even for him to defend against them!
Moreover, this is clearly a female dagger, yet she possesses many ghostly skills that no female dagger can comprehend!

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yiyang had no intention of continuing the endless battle with the ghost servant. He took out the bright red talisman again and cast a spell.

In the blink of an eye, his figure vanished from his original spot and appeared in front of the door marked with a black pottery jar.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yiyang rushed into the passageway leading to the Ghost Cellar.
