Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 212 The Great Battle. (Third Update!)

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a fierce wind raged.

Above the sky, a ghostly hand pressed down, as if the heavens were collapsing.

Even though it was still some distance from overhead, the gust of cold wind that swept over them had already pressed down on the surrounding bamboo forest with overwhelming force, and the tough bamboo branches, like tall grass, fell in all directions.

Feeling the immense pressure emanating from the ghost hand, Zheng Que's expression darkened. Just as he was about to use the Soul-Summoning Banner to fight back, Shu Yunying, who was beside him, immediately raised her hand and pointed at the ghost hand.

Whoosh!
A concentrated stream of black energy struck the ghost hand squarely.

boom! ! !
The black mist was silent and seemingly far less imposing than the ghost hand. However, the moment it struck the ghost hand, it immediately erupted with a tremendous commotion, which subtly overwhelmed the thunder in the sky.

The ferocious ghost immediately withdrew its hand in pain. A slightly dented mark was visible on its palm from the black energy, but there was no wound.

The next moment, the hideous ghost opened its vertical mouth, and a long, bright red tongue shot out, instantly sweeping towards the "Geng" character car.

Shu Yunying, her clothes fluttering, showed no fear on her face. She simply said to Zheng Que, "Shu Que, give me the Soul-Summoning Banner!"

"This [Scissors Prison], I, the young lady, will deal with it!"

"You take your ghost servants and deal with the other ghosts."

Soul-calling flag?
If the other party is a "wicked creature," can a soul-summoning banner be used?

Thinking this, Zheng Que still threw the soul-summoning banner towards Shu Yunying.

Shu Yunying immediately raised her hand and grabbed the soul-summoning banner, but the banner passed right through her hand without any resistance, and she grabbed nothing!
Upon seeing this, Shu Yunying was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: "You damned main soul!"

"How dare you manipulate the Soul-Summoning Banner and refuse this young lady!"

Upon hearing this, Qingli, who was suspended in mid-air, immediately snorted coldly. She had not tried to control the Soul-Summoning Banner at all!

So, she retorted without giving him any face: "You newcomer, you're clearly incompetent, not even as good as this human brat, and you still want to blame your great-aunt?"

Just as the two ghost servants were arguing, a long, bright red tongue swept across.

The long tongue was enveloped in a dense aura of yin energy. The surging black mist around it made the tongue appear even more crimson, as if it were formed from fresh blood. Its chilling coldness was so intense that even before it arrived, it had already stirred up layers of yin winds, creating a fierce and imposing aura.

Shu Yunying immediately disregarded the punishment of the current main spirit of the Soul-Summoning Banner. Her Yin energy suddenly erupted, gathering and rising behind her to form a huge ghost hand. The ghost hand was enormous, covering the entire area, and was no less powerful than the ghost hand of the ferocious ghost from before.

boom! !

The long tongue that swept towards the "Geng" character car was instantly grabbed by the giant ghost hand above Shu Yunying's head.

However, as soon as the bright red tongue was subdued, it quickly secreted gushing ink, which immediately began to seep into the ghost hand.

In the blink of an eye, the ghost hand that Shu Yunying had unleashed began to gradually transform into the shape of ink.

Seeing this, she immediately cast a strange spell, and the yin energy around her surged again, quickly condensing into a second ghostly hand. It grabbed the bright red tongue, and then the two ghostly hands worked together, as if trying to forcibly pull out the hideous ghost's long tongue.

"Roar!"

The hideous demon let out a muffled roar, raised its giant hand, and grabbed at Shu Yunying.

Shu Yunying showed no intention of dodging and directly extended a finger, pointing it at the giant hand descending from above.

Whoosh!
Just like before, condensed black energy shot towards the hideous ghost's giant hand.

At the same time, Shu Yunying cast a strange spell with her other hand, and the yin energy around her instantly transformed into dozens of black arrows, which shot towards the hideous ghost.

Boom boom boom... Just as Shu Yunying was fighting back and forth with the ferocious ghost, Niannu's body was filled with yin energy, and as her skirt fluttered, she stretched out her palm, from which a ball of wriggling blackish-gray yin energy surged.

This is the Ghostly Skill [Riding the Wind], which can increase speed!

Without hesitation, Niannu immediately channeled the dark gray yin energy into Qingli's body beside her.

The moment the Yin energy entered her body, Qingli's speed increased dramatically!

The woman in white with black hair swayed and immediately extended six arms, which rapidly grew larger. During the growth, the fingernails of each arm were covered with a layer of long, purplish-black nails in the blink of an eye.

The long armor was like a short sword, with an extremely sharp tip that gleamed with a faint, cold light.

This is the "jealousy finger"!
Qingli's six arms immediately crossed and spun out, the long armor rubbing together and producing the sound of metal clashing, as she slashed at the surrounding ghosts as if cutting melons and vegetables.

Puff puff……

Amidst the dense, slicing sounds of sharp blades, all the ghosts rushing up from all sides were scratched by Qing Li's fingernails, and ink immediately flowed from their wounds.

Thanks to Niannu's ghost skills, Qingli was extremely fast this time. Her fingernails were like sharp blades, lightly slicing through the surrounding ghosts without getting a single drop of ink on them.

At the same moment, Niannu reached out again, and a ball of dark gray yin energy entered Zheng Que's body.

Zheng Que felt a sudden chill run through his body, as if he had been hit by a cold air mass. But the chill quickly faded away, and he felt as if he had been freed from some kind of shackle. He suddenly felt much lighter and his speed increased dramatically. He quickly picked up the soul-summoning banner that had fallen to the ground and shook it vigorously.

As the black banner billowed, gusts of soul wind swept towards the hideous ghost.

The speed of the Soul Wind also increased dramatically, slicing at the ferocious ghost like steel blades, causing the ghost's Yin energy to fluctuate and become unstable.

Immediately afterwards, Niannu used the ghost technique [Riding the Wind] on Kulan. Kulan stood holding an umbrella, turning her upper body around and staring at the hideous ghost's tongue, but she did not make a move for a long time.

It wasn't until this point that Niannu threw a [Riding the Wind] spell at Shu Yunying.

With the blessing of the wind, Shu Yunying's attack speed increased greatly, and beams of condensed black energy shot out continuously towards the ferocious ghost.

More arrows continued to materialize around it, striking at the vital points of the ferocious ghost.

bang bang bang...

Whoosh...

Amidst the continuous sounds, the hideous ghost roared in pain, instantly spitting out a large amount of ink, which turned into a rain of ink that fell around the "Geng" shaped carriage.

Ku Lan immediately came to her senses, her body surging with yin energy. She lightly waved her silk umbrella, and from beneath it emerged figures that looked exactly like her.

As soon as these figures left the base of the umbrellas, they all rose into the sky, and at the same time, they opened black silk umbrellas in their hands, like a sky full of black dandelions.

The black silk umbrellas are connected to each other, like a sea of ​​umbrellas stretching out in mid-air.

L……

The spilled ink was completely blocked by the umbrella.

The ink slid quickly down the smooth surface of the umbrella, as if separated by a layer of grease, leaving no trace.

At this moment, Niannu suddenly floated towards Linghu Yuniang, and amidst her astonished and fearful expression, she transformed into a streak of black light and instantly disappeared into her brow.

Yin techniques, [Invasion]!
