All Heavens: Starting with Panlong's Transcendence, Devouring All Heavens

Chapter 145 The Female Ghost with a Pure Yin Body

Lanruo Temple was once a well-known and prestigious temple.

Many virtuous monks stayed here to practice, but many years ago, all of these monks left, and Lanruo Temple was occupied by a locust tree demon who used female ghosts to harm people.

Inside Lanruo Temple, the exquisite murals, faintly visible beneath the moss on the walls, are a testament to its former grandeur.

Yan Chixia deliberately shouted loudly, "It's getting late, let's get some rest!"

"Alright, then let's get some rest so we can get up early and start our journey tomorrow!" Zhi Qiu Yi Ye deliberately agreed.

Then, to make it easier for the female ghost to come and harm people, they deliberately split into four rooms to live in. Of course, just in case, Yan Chixia drew a calming spell for A-Qiang to prevent him from being seduced by the female ghost.

Yan Chixia wanted to draw a spell for Lin En, but Lin En refused, saying, "I am naturally indifferent to women, so there is no need for you to draw a spell for me, Daoist."

"Alright!" Yan Chixia didn't insist upon hearing this: "Then be careful!"

Soon, the four of them settled into their respective rooms, and the night grew even deeper.

……

At this moment, a banquet is being held in a palace underground at Lanruo Temple.

Two figures, one black and one white, sat on either side of the table, drinking human blood and eating human livers, hearts, and lungs—a gruesome scene. Below the table, four or five women in palace attire danced to entertain them.

"Huh!" the ugly woman in black suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

The figure in white glanced at it with a smile: "What? Grandma, do you think I'm eating too much?"

"Of course not, Your Excellency must be joking!" The ugly woman shook her head. "I was surprised because four travelers have come to the Lanruo Temple up there. Let me fetch some fresh heart, liver, lungs, and blood to entertain Your Excellency!"

"Oh? There's something fresh!" The white-robed messenger was delighted upon hearing this.

It had always walked the underworld, and even when it came to the human world, it dared not cause any trouble, lest it attract the attention of exorcists. Fresh human flesh was a rare treat for it.

"Xiaoyu, Xiaoqing...you four, go and bewitch these four!" the ugly woman commanded the dancing maids below. "Once they're aroused, I'll retrieve their flesh, blood, hearts, and livers!"

"Yes, Grandma!" Immediately, four maids whose names were called appeared below, transformed into phantoms, and flew away along the cave that emerged from the tree roots to carry out their respective tasks.

……

Just as Lynn pretended to close his eyes and fall asleep, he felt a chilling wind blowing in the room, and then a smooth body snuggled into his arms.

"Young Master~~" A sweet, fragrant moan rang in his ears almost simultaneously.

Lynn reached out and grabbed at the female ghost without any hesitation, vigorously kneading her...

Ah Qiang was the same, and Yan Chixia and Zhi Qiu Yiye, being too shy, didn't dare to make a move. But in the eyes of the female ghosts, they were clearly already bewitched and infatuated by them.

"Grandma, you can start now!"

The tree spirit's face lit up with joy: "Good! These merchants have no idea how powerful I am. I'll go and take their flesh and blood right now!"

Four tree roots, like pythons, leaped up from around the palace, quickly breaking through the soil and shooting towards Lanruo Temple, intending to devour Lin En and his companions completely.

Its moves even made the white-robed messenger on the side somewhat envious. It was a ghost at the Nascent Soul stage, and in terms of combat power, it was even stronger than the tree demon. However, when it came to the art of survival, it couldn't even come close to the tree demon.

The tree spirit is enormous and can burrow underground; its life core can also be hidden anywhere within its body. To kill it, one would have to dig eighteen layers into the ground.

"Young master, you're hurting me~~" The female ghost in Lin En's arms was almost deformed by the vigorous kneading of her hands. She frowned and wailed in pain.

Lynn didn't care about any of that; every little bit counts, and he was going to kill this female ghost anyway. He'd first incapacitate her, then kill her as soon as the tree spirit appeared.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a sound like a python crawling came from outside, and a thick, long black shadow broke through the window and flew into the room.

The female ghost was almost crushed to death by Lynn when she saw this and quickly shouted, "Grandma, save me!"

"Oh? The tree spirit has arrived?" Lynn smiled and exerted force, directly smashing the female ghost's soul to pieces. These female ghosts had harmed countless people in Lanruo Temple, and each of them deserved to die.

Source point +1!

"call out!"

The thick tree root suddenly coiled around Lynn, trying to take away his flesh and blood. But the moment it wrapped around him, Lynn suddenly stretched out his arms and hugged the tree root to his chest.

Then, he unleashed all his strength, dragging the tree root as he jumped outwards, seemingly trying to use the root as a link to pull the tree demon hidden underground out of the ground.

Almost at the same time Lynn made his move, in the other three rooms, Yan Chixia, Zhi Qiu Yiye, and A Qiang also simultaneously killed the female ghost in their arms. Then, they each used their own methods to pounce on the sweeping tree roots.

The "Ape Form" of the Five Elements Fist instantly straightened the tree roots!

Yan Chixia roared, "Invincible under heaven and earth, borrowing the power of the universe, behold my palm thunder!"

Zhi Qiu Yi Ye roared, "Wind, fire, thunder, lightning! Lightning strike!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The swirling tree roots were instantly blasted into several pieces by their lightning magic, even creating several large craters in the soil. The tree roots inside were also charred and rotten, with only a small section retracting.

Inside the underground palace, the tree demon, struck by such a heavy blow, cried out in pain. It tried to retract the other two segments of its roots, but Lynn and Ah-Qiang held it tightly, preventing it from doing so.

At this point, the tree spirit was fully aware that it had been tricked by the exorcists: "Ah! Ah! You despicable exorcists, I'll kill you all!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, it howled in pain and even knelt down on the ground.

The two tree roots that Lin En and A Qiang were holding onto were also blown to smithereens by Yan Chixia and Zhi Qiu Yiye's lightning magic!

Demons and monsters fear heavenly lightning most, especially ghosts and tree-like demons; countless trees perish under its power every year. The Tree Demon Granny was ambushed by Zhi Qiu Yi Ye and Yan Chi Xia using lightning magic, destroying four of her main roots, leaving her severely injured.

The white-robed messenger looked at it with some surprise: "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

"Those four passing travelers were exorcists in disguise; their target was me!" the Tree Demon Granny roared to the sky, "I want them dead!"

"Four exorcists?" Upon hearing this, the white-robed messenger prepared to leave.

These exorcists are after the Tree Demon Granny; they have nothing to do with it. Besides, they inflicted serious injuries on the Tree Demon Granny with their first move, so they're clearly not to be trifled with. There's no need for it to get involved in this mess.

"Envoy, if you lend me a hand, I will give you this female ghost with a pure Yin constitution!" The tree demon, seeing the white-robed envoy's intention to retreat, gritted its teeth and said, "Xiaoqian, come and pay your respects to the envoy!"

As it spoke, its heart bled. Ghosts are inherently yin beings, and female ghosts with pure yin bodies are the most yin beings in the world, making them the best cultivation vessel for great demons.

If it hadn't sensed Xiaoqian's constitution, why would it have bothered with this yin-yang transformation, trying to convert itself into a yang-bodied "Grandpa Tree Demon"?

But now that those people have gone to such lengths to ambush it, they must have other plans to take its life. To save its own life, it has no choice but to painfully abandon Xiaoqian, who possesses a pure Yin constitution.

"Grandma!" A beautiful young girl with eyes like autumn water and long, smooth, black hair walked over and called out respectfully.

"A female ghost with a pure Yin body!" Upon hearing this, the white-robed envoy immediately looked up at the girl and carefully sensed her. Sure enough, he detected the extremely pure Yin energy emanating from her. "If I could cultivate with this female ghost with a pure Yin body, I might be able to break through to the Void Returning Realm!" The white-robed envoy's expression turned hostile as he looked at the Tree Demon Granny, as if he was about to abduct the female ghost at any moment.

"I've hidden Xiaoqian's urn. With it in hand, I can control Xiaoqian's life and death!" The Tree Demon Granny naturally saw through his thoughts and quickly said, "As long as the messenger helps me kill those four exorcists, I will personally present Xiaoqian's urn!"

The white-robed messenger gave the tree demon grandmother a deep look: "Alright, I hope you won't go back on your word! Let's go out together now and kill those four exorcists!"

As for the girl being traded, she was automatically ignored by them.

……

"Master Zhi Qiu, the tree demon should be seriously injured now. Please go down and force him up!" Lynn said hoarsely.

It's true that the tree demon is a powerful demon at the Nascent Soul stage, but since trees are spirits, they are naturally not good at fighting. Now that it's seriously injured, Zhi Qiu Yi Ye might not be able to kill it, but driving it out from underground shouldn't be difficult.

"Okay! No problem!" Zhi Qiu Yi Ye readily accepted the task: "I'll use my earth-遁术 (earth-遁术, a technique that allows one to burrow underground) right now!"

But at that moment, Yan Chixia's expression turned serious, and he hurriedly transmitted his voice, "This is bad! Everyone, quickly gather around me!"

"The tree demon has emerged, accompanied by a demon at the Nascent Soul stage!"

"A Nascent Soul Realm evil spirit?" The three dared not be negligent and quickly gathered around Yan Chixia, while warily watching the large cloud of smoke in the distance.

"Splash splash~~"

The wind blew through the trees, and the leaves made a rhythmic rustling sound.

Two blurry figures, one in black and one in white, emerged from the smoke; they were the white-clad messengers of the Tree Demon Granny and the Black Mountain Demon.

The tree demon glared venomously at the four: "You brats, how dare you harm my body! You'll all stay here today!"

"What should we do?" Zhi Qiu Yi Ye transmitted her voice to the three of them: "Run away, or fight?"

Lynn spoke hoarsely, "Their opponents are all at the Nascent Soul stage, and they're faster than us. Escape is impossible; we have no choice but to fight!"

He quickly assigned tasks: "The tree demon is already weak, and it's seriously injured. When the fight starts, A-Qiang, you hold it off for a while. Hero Yan, Daoist Zhi Qiu, the three of us will join forces and kill that Nascent Soul stage ghost first!"

"Alright, let's go for it!" Yan Chixia nodded in agreement.

Ah Qiang's face lit up with eager anticipation: "Wow, I've never fought a Nascent Soul stage demon before! This is amazing!"

"Let's do it!"

Almost simultaneously, both sides made their moves!

Ah Qiang moved with lightning speed, rushing towards the Tree Demon Granny. A faint, cyan mantis phantom enveloped him, its sharp forelimbs like Guan Yu's broadsword, ready to cleave the Tree Demon in two.

"snort!"

The Tree Demon Granny let out a cold snort, and several sharp branches stabbed at A-Qiang from various angles, and the two quickly began to wrestle.

On the other side, Lynn did not hesitate and jumped up, crashing directly into the demon in the Nascent Soul stage!

"A mere Qi Refining stage junior!" The white-robed envoy looked at Lynn with disdain as he rushed towards him.

With a wave of his hand, a black banner appeared in his hand, and then he gently shook the banner.

Instantly, rings of translucent black light emanated from the black banner and attacked the four people.

"Be careful, that's the 'Soul-Stealing Dark Light' that specifically targets and harms people's primordial spirit!" Yan Chixia, with his vast experience, recognized the origin of the black halo and shouted loudly.

"Damage to one's primordial spirit?" Both Zhi Qiu Yi Ye and A Qiang were startled.

Seeing this, the white-robed messenger became even more smug. This black banner magic weapon was given to him by Lord Black Mountain after he made great contributions. It was specifically designed to harm people's souls, and was extremely vicious and impossible to guard against.

Whether they are demons or humans, they all have a primordial spirit. Therefore, they are inherently at a disadvantage and at a disadvantage when facing themselves!

But he saw a figure in black robes ignoring the soul-stealing dark light and continuing to attack him.

"Brother Lin! Get out of the way!" Yan Chixia shouted as he saw Lin En about to be struck by the Soul-Stealing Dark Light.

The white-robed messenger scoffed, "Trying to escape?"

Instantly, more black halos swept towards Lynn.

"Never mind me, proceed with the plan!" Lynn roared, then continued to pounce on the white-robed messenger, his arms slamming down on him like a mountain-splitting axe.

Damage to someone's primordial spirit? He doesn't have a primordial spirit at all, how could he damage it?

At the same time, several black halos entered Lynn's body.

"You're dead!" The white-robed messenger looked at Lynn, but what shocked him was that Lynn was completely unharmed.

He exclaimed in disbelief, "How is this possible?"

"Boom!"

Lynn slashed his arms directly at the white-robed messenger, causing him to stagger and lose his grip on the Soul-Stealing Dark Light.

Zhi Qiu Yi Ye approached swiftly using the Seven Star Steps, chanting an incantation: "Wind, Fire, Thunder, Lightning, freeze!"

They had already cast a spell to freeze the white-robed messenger!

Then, Yan Chixia's chanting rang out behind him: "Heaven and earth are boundless, the universe lends its power, demon-slaying sword, emerge!"

A white light streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning, striking the white-clad messenger who was frozen in place and unable to move!

Lynn, on the other hand, swept his arms across once again.

They first used the skill chain they had planned to use against the tree demon on the white-robed messenger!

"call out!"

The Demon-Slaying Sword is actually the Xuanyuan Sword of the ancient human emperor, possessing the property of warding off all evil. After being pierced through by this sword, the white-robed envoy's soul immediately became unstable.

Fortunately, the immobilization spell finally ended, but just then, Lynn's attack came again.

"boom!"

The two blows in quick succession made his ghostly body even more unstable.

Moreover, no one intended to let it recover; the Demon-Slaying Sword turned back and pierced its body once more.

Lynn's fists rained down on it like drops of water, while Zhi Qiu Yi Ye repeatedly shouted, "Freeze! Freeze! Freeze!"

Lynn threw countless punches without ever getting tired, until he finally had 100 more Origin Points on his screen before he finally stopped.

Then, he directly chose to add points!
