Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 325 Gao Yinxia. (Second update!)

On a small hill in the far suburbs of Taiping County.

Zheng Que quickly stood up and asked Ku Lan and Shu Yunying beside him, "Ku Lan, Shu Yunying, what happened to you two just now?"

Ku Lan spun her head around on his neck a few times, then immediately stood up and bowed, replying apologetically, "Please don't be offended, young master. I don't know what happened to me. I just suddenly lost control."

Out of control?

Zheng Que frowned. He had heard Lu Maohong mention the material that was to be paid to the imperial court. It could help cultivators control special ghosts such as "weird," "evil spirits," and "wicked creatures," and unlike the soul-summoning banner, it was not limited in number.

Was Kulan's condition just now controlled by that piece of broken wood?

At this moment, Shu Yunying snorted coldly and said in a very annoyed tone, "This young lady was just possessed!"

"Although I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the Yin and Yang are in disorder now, and there are many special ghosts in the world."

"There must have been some kind of ghost that could affect my mind and ambushed me from the shadows just now."

"This is outrageous! I, the young lady, will catch that monster and give it a good beating!"

Hearing Shu Yunying, such a "wicked" person, claim that she was possessed by an evil spirit, Zheng Que was speechless.

But what is certain is that the piece of wood from earlier did indeed have the power to control ghosts.

Moreover, Ku Lan and Shu Yunying are not like ordinary ghosts. Even though these two ghost servants of mine had imperial edicts, they still fell for the attack. Other lonely ghosts would have no power to resist that piece of broken wood at all!

Besides, that piece of wood gave him an extremely familiar feeling, and the texture of the wood looked very familiar...

As he pondered, Zheng Que suddenly had a flash of inspiration and quickly thought of the crippled armchair he was sitting in in the underworld.

That piece of wood looked very similar in material to his crippled armchair!
That piece of wood, is it material from the underworld?!
As he was pondering, the previously unfocused and empty eyes of the purple-clad female cultivator beside him gradually regained their luster.

As soon as he regained consciousness, he immediately got up and looked around.

Realizing she was quite a distance from Taiping County, and seeing the fierce battle raging above the city in the distance, the purple-clad female cultivator was slightly taken aback, but quickly regained her composure and immediately asked Zheng Que, "The illusion has been dispelled. Did you save me just now?"

Zheng Que snapped out of his daze, turned to look at the purple-clad female cultivator, nodded, and asked, "Are you from the Heavenly Artifact Sect?"

The moment he first saw the woman in purple, he felt that her aura was somewhat familiar.

But the situation was urgent at the time, and I was only thinking about surviving, so I didn't pay much attention to it.

And now... the other party seems to be the female cultivator from the Heavenly Artifact Sect who disguised herself as Ku Lan and tried to kill her!

If this had happened before, he would have tried to escape immediately.

However, he already has more than one ghost servant from the [Scissors Prison] by his side, not to mention the ghost bride from the [Iron Tree Prison] is still on her way...

At this moment, the purple-clad female cultivator nodded slightly and replied straightforwardly, "Yes!"

"My surname is Gao, and my given name is Yinxia. I am a disciple of Elder Biqiong of the Tianqi Sect."

"Since you saved my life, I will spare your life and just search your soul."

As she spoke, Gao Yinxia flipped her wrist, and her powerful true energy instantly shook Zheng Que's palm away.

The next moment, she reached out and grabbed at Zheng Que's head. Her fair hand with its five fingers slightly clenched, like a sharp claw, already exuded a chilling aura even before it fell.

Zheng Que hurriedly tried to dodge to the side, but he was far too slow for his opponent. Just as he was about to be caught, the Soul-Summoning Banner beside him suddenly stirred up a fierce wind of soul energy, which swept towards Gao Yinxia.

At the same time, Shu Yunying also made her move, pointing out a condensed black energy that shot towards Gao Yinxia's back.

Ku Lan's cultivation level dropped, and her attack speed was slightly slower than Qing Li and Shu Yunying's. Her eyes were fixed on Gao Yinxia, ​​and her head suddenly turned back.

huh... huh... huh...

The black banner fluttered rapidly, unleashing gusts of soul-summoning wind. The summoning wind was fierce and violent, like an invisible blade; the soul-capturing wind was silent, yet chilling to the bone; the soul-corroding wind rapidly gathered yin energy, concealing murderous intent; the illusory soul wind floated like smoke and clouds, reflecting countless images; and the underworld wind howled sharply and piercingly, enveloping countless hideous and evil spirits.

Qingli manipulated the Soul-Summoning Banner, unleashing all five types of soul winds, which swept over Gao Yinxia, ​​completely surrounding her.

Gao Yinxia grabbed Zheng Que's head with five fingers, then flipped them upwards in an instant, transforming them into a sharp palm strike that slammed towards Hun Feng.

At the same time, with her other hand, she made a strange hand gesture, and a semi-transparent barrier instantly appeared around her.

boom! ! !
clang!
The soul wind and the palm force collided, and the former instantly disintegrated into several cold winds with dense yin energy, howling and scattering in all directions. At the same time, the palm force also shattered without a trace.

At this moment, the condensed black energy emitted by Shu Yunying crashed heavily into the semi-transparent barrier on Gao Yinxia's body. The black energy instantly turned to ashes, and the barrier remained intact, unaffected in the slightest.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Yinxia's head turned backward uncontrollably.

However, this loss of control lasted only a snap of the fingers before a powerful aura erupted from his body, instantly freeing him from Ku Lan's ghostly technique.

In the blink of an eye, Gao Yinxia deftly blocked the attack of three ghost servants.

However, this delay allowed Zheng Que to use the [Phantom Escape Technique] to quickly create distance between them.

"Don't hold back!"

"Break all their arms and legs!"

"She's a disciple of the Heavenly Artifact Sect, we absolutely cannot let her get away!"

Zheng Que stood at the foot of the hillside, looking at Gao Yinxia warily, and gave the order in a serious voice.

This Gao Yinxia, ​​she tried to kill me last time, and now she wants to search my soul!

Although we don't know the reason behind this, since the war has already begun, we absolutely cannot be polite to the other side!

If we let the other party escape again now, and they return to their sect and bring reinforcements, we'll be in big trouble!
Boom boom boom...

While dealing with Zheng Que's three ghost servants, Gao Yinxia coldly replied, "Relying on just two [Scissors Prison] early stages is simply wishful thinking!"

"Even this Soul-Summoning Banner in your hand right now was made by my Heavenly Artifact Sect!"

"Now that you're not cooperating, I'll have no choice but to cooperate for you!"

As she spoke, Gao Yinxia swiftly reached into her waist pouch and took out a rather thick talisman.

This talisman, with its red background and gold patterns, exudes a blazing aura. Even before it is activated, it already faintly emits violent fluctuations.

However, just as Gao Yinxia was about to activate the talisman, a cold, pale hand suddenly gripped her wrist...
