Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 42 Bridge Princess (Second round of recommendations, please continue reading)
The shadow rose straight up
In the blink of an eye, the five fetal pendants that flew towards them were swallowed into their stomachs.

"Pop~ Pop~ Pop~"

The fetus harbored deep resentment, constantly rampaging through the black shadow's mouth.

Li Wushou activated the Soul Devouring Technique, accelerating the flow of Yin energy in his Yin-Yang meridians, which suddenly unleashed a powerful absorption force.

“Gurgle~!”

With several swallowing sounds, the dark figure swallowed the fetus whole!

The blood-red pupils hanging from Xi Nang's shoulder revealed a look of terror. In an instant, the five fetal pendants she had raised were completely devoured by Li Wushou.

Who exactly is the evil spirit?
Even the inherently brutal Xi Nang became somewhat dazed, then got down on all fours and ran towards the side of the bridge, leaping up as if to dive into the Rouge River.

After swallowing the five fetal pendants, Li Wushou's yin energy in his meridians became even more abundant in an instant.

With a movement of his feet, several vortexes of yin energy appeared beneath his feet, propelling his body to follow.

However, due to the sudden increase in yin energy, the speed of the movement was too fast. Li Wushou actually stepped out of the bridge before Xi Nang. He turned around and looked back. Xi Nang jumped over the railing and down.

A dark shadow spread across the surface of the Rouge River, slowly opening its gaping maw.

"Puff~ Gurgle~"

With a nimble mid-air spin and a beautiful entry into the water, Xi Nang entered the shadowy figure's mouth!

The vortex solidified, and Li Wushou stepped onto the river surface.

The smooth river surface was trodden into a concave circle, and then the river water underfoot began to slowly rotate along with the swirling yin energy beneath his feet.

Li Wushou stood silently on the river with his eyes closed, continuously circulating the Divine Official's Yin Refining Technique. Strands of pure Yin energy flowed from the shadows along the crown of his head and into his Yin-Yang meridians.

Suddenly, a large amount of Yin energy gathered, and the Yin energy in the Yin-Yang meridians suddenly began to liquefy.

A chill ran through him, and the river beneath his feet froze solid!
A heat surged between his brows, and streams of blood flowed out from the shadows once more.

The stream bag not only had a strong yin energy, but also blood energy?
Upon examining the internal meridians, Li Wushou realized that Wu Zhuangyuan had once said, "Isolated yang cannot exist, isolated yin cannot be born."

A large amount of Yin energy is transformed into blood energy through the twisting of the Yin and Yang meridians. The blood energy also gradually begins to liquefy, but the speed is much slower than when the Yin energy was condensed using the Divine Official's Yin Refining Technique.

After a long time, the liquefied blood and qi gradually merged with the newly liquefied yin energy.

The chill in his body dissipated, and the ice under his feet slowly melted. Li Wushou opened his eyes.

This sudden swallowing of the fetal abortion and the sac made Li Wushou realize the shortcomings of the Divine Official's Yin Refining Technique. It wasn't that the Divine Official's Yin Refining Technique was bad, but simply that it was somewhat inadequate for Li Wushou himself.

While rapidly activating the Priest's Yin Refining Technique can accelerate the gathering and condensation of Yin energy, it will disrupt the balance of Yin and Yang meridians within the body, leaving one without the method to condense Yang energy.

Therefore, after eating, one should avoid vigorous refining of Yin energy, allowing it to flow orderly into the Yin-Yang meridians and naturally balance through their unique properties. However, if one does this, Li Wushou is unsure whether the black shadow will still release Yin energy afterward.

Either find a method to condense the Yang energy of blood and operate it together with the Yin-refining technique of the priest, so as not to make one's Yin-Yang meridians unbalanced!
"Is the High Priest alright?"

On the Cherry Blossom Bridge, Lin You leaned on the railing and saw Li Wushou, who was standing on the water, open his eyes. He quickly leaned over and asked.

Upon hearing Lin You's question, Feng Sishui hurriedly looked towards the water, but the embarrassment on his face was impossible to hide.

"fine!"

Li Wushou composed himself, shook his head, and the Soul-Devouring Shadow had already dissipated, the black shadow obediently landing back behind him.

With a thought, a cold wind rose from beneath his feet, and Li Wushou was about to turn back to the bridge.

Suddenly, Li Wushou frowned, realizing that the monster had already entered the black shadow's stomach, so why was the fog on the bridge getting thicker and thicker?
"Lin You, do you know the name of that evil spirit just now?"

Lin You didn't see the dark figure swallow the xi sachet and assumed that Li Wushou was asking about the origin of the xi sachet and wanted to investigate it.

So he hurriedly told Li Wushou about the origin and records of the stream bag in the City God Temple. Only then did Li Wushou realize that the City God Temple actually had such records. A pot of tea and a book!

This is what a proper High Priest's daily life should be like!

"Does this stream bag have the ability to control the fog?"

Lin You was taken aback, then realized what was happening, looked around, and shook his head with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"This ability is not recorded in any books!"

After shouting, Lin You took out another talisman from his pocket and became cautiously wary. Feng Sishui was stunned and quickly turned around and walked towards the middle of the bridge, where there was a talisman that he had just thrown away without lighting it.

Having lost face big time tonight, Feng Sishui is now pulling himself together.

No matter what Lin You does, you should learn to do it yourself first; it's never wrong!

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou, who was on the water, felt increasingly uneasy. The mist had suddenly appeared with the Stream Bag and seemed to be related to it, but now that the Stream Bag had been removed, it was becoming even thicker.
With a focused mind and a zoomed-out perspective, Li Wushou carefully observed the surface of the Cherry Blossom Bridge.

Under the mysterious perspective, the mist slowly lost its concealing function, and two sedan chairs stopped one after the other on the bridge. Eight sedan chair bearers stood still, their pupils filled with a misty gray-white.

In one of the sedan chairs ahead, a young man in fine clothes was trembling, holding a bell in his hands, bowing his head and praying incessantly.

What Li Wushou saw in the sedan chair behind him was quite an eye-opener.

The originally spacious sedan chair was now crammed with a somewhat obese wealthy gentleman.

The wealthy man was balding, his clothes were off, and his somewhat greasy back was facing the sedan door. His figure was pressing a snow-white body down beneath him.

The figure beneath him was completely obscured by the wealthy man's large body; only his two jade-like legs could be seen, spread wide by his plump waist and abdomen, resting limply on the door frame.

The elegant dress and lotus-patterned skirt were carelessly tossed aside.

Li Wushou, mindful of the need for caution when investigating evil spirits, observed very carefully.

But after a long while, the two figures did not make any further moves. Suddenly, a faint sobbing sound came from the side. The sound was like a lament, which made people feel sad.
A few rustling sounds came from beneath the wealthy man.

Then, half of his delicate face emerged with difficulty from under the fat piled up on the wealthy man's ribs.

His black hair was already soaked with sweat and clung messily to his face.

The weight of the wealthy man's body was almost too much for her to bear, so the woman gasped for breath weakly the moment her face was revealed.

The sound traveled to the outside of the sedan chair like an aphrodisiac, and the sedan chair bearers, who had been standing there in a daze, suddenly moved and flung open the tightly closed sedan chair door.

The two men stood side by side and helped the wealthy man up. The man's back looked extremely heavy, but the sedan chair bearers seemed to exert no effort at all, easily pulling him up and then throwing him backward, causing the man to fall backward onto the bridge.

Only then did Li Wushou see that there was a huge opening in the rich man's abdominal cavity, and the inside had already been eaten away by something.

No wonder he didn't move for so long beneath the beauty!

As for beauties?

After the sedan bearers abducted the wealthy man, a pitiful and delicate voice came from inside the sedan chair.

"This humble servant, Qiao Ji, thanks the sedan chair bearers for their help!"

First of all, I would like to thank every godfather who has read this far!
