The Peerless Tang Sect: Possessing Huo Yuhao at the Start

Chapter 57 Purification of Vengeful Spirits (Happy New Year, readers!)

Several months later, a tall, slender figure slowly walked out of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Her dark red hair was styled into a neat ponytail, and her black outfit concealed much of her allure in the evening light.

"Looks like you're pretty punctual. Are you sure you don't want to call some other people to help?" Nana said, looking at Huo Zhanji.

Huo Zhanji waved his hand and then said, "I'm enough on my own. More people would just make things more troublesome."

"Let's go then. Put on the cloak, and you'll pretend to be a holy servant I recruited, just follow behind me." Nana put on a white hood, then a white veiled hat, and strode off toward her target.

"No need for that trouble, just go." Huo Zhanji disappeared from Nana's sight in an instant.

"Where are you? I can't see you anymore?" To Nana's surprise, Huo Zhanji disappeared before her eyes.

"I am right here, but I've concealed my presence using my mental power," Huo Zhanji said.

Nana took a deep breath, trying her best to calm her somewhat agitated emotions, before emerging from the darkness again and heading towards her destination, a journey that took a full half hour.

Looking at an inconspicuous building in the distance, Nana murmured to herself, "We're here. It's that courtyard about 300 meters ahead. The building inside has a black roof."

Huo Zhanji's voice rang out again, "Don't worry, there won't be any problems."

Nana walked to the corner of another street. This time, she first put on a white hood, and then a straw hat with a veil hanging down. The courtyard was inconspicuous among the surrounding buildings. Nana raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door, knocking five times in total, three long and two short. The door quietly opened a crack, and Nana slipped through the crack.

The person who opened the door was a young man dressed entirely in black, also wearing a bamboo hat. The man in the bamboo hat nodded slightly to Nana, then stepped aside.

Nana nodded to him and then walked quickly along a path toward the building with a black dome in the center of the courtyard.

There were two people in white in the room. They weren't wearing straw hats, but rather hoods that matched their clothes. When they saw Nana walk in, one of them raised his hand to stop her and made a gesture.

Nana raised her hand, took out a round plaque, and handed it over, saying in a deep voice, "May the Holy Emperor live ten thousand years, and may the Holy Maiden's beauty last forever."

The two men in white quickly bowed at the same time, both repeating her words in low voices: "May the Holy Emperor live ten thousand years, and may the Holy Maiden's beauty remain forever."

A man in white said, "Master Quasi-Spirit, both the Great Holy Spirit and the Second Holy Spirit are here. Would you like to go down now?"

"Mm." Nana nodded.

The man in white returned the token to her and gestured for her to proceed.

Nana walked into the house and came to a table. She raised her hand and pressed down on the table, and immediately, the four table legs slowly sank into the ground. A crack of about one square meter appeared on the side of the table, and she walked down the straight passageway.

Two people sat on either side of them, also dressed in white and wearing hoods, except that each of them had some silver decorative patterns on their white clothes.

Nana quickly stepped forward and respectfully said, "Holy Servant Number Six pays respects to the Great Holy Spirit and the Two Holy Spirits."

The more robust man sitting on the left said in a deep voice, "You're here? Go in yourself. There's nothing much to see. You'd better work hard, and once you're officially one of us, everything will be taken care of."

Nana said respectfully, "Thank you for your guidance, Great Holy Spirit."

Just as she was about to reach the small door, suddenly, the two Holy Spirits sitting on the other side shouted, "Wait a minute."

Nana's heart tightened, but she remained calm on the surface and asked, "Second Holy Spirit, what's wrong?"

The two Holy Spirits said in a deep voice, "I think I can smell the scent of a living person."

Just then, a gray light suddenly appeared beside him without warning, striking his head, and the entire underground hall seemed to tremble violently.

When the Great Holy Spirit's body reappeared, he let out a scream, spat out a mouthful of blood, and tumbled and fell to the ground.

Huo Zhanji's figure appeared in the darkness, and at the same time he released his self-soul fusion skill, Eternal Night Form. On the other side, Nana stopped pretending and a crimson light shot up like a bolt of lightning, slashing at the Second Holy Spirit's pitch-black right claw.

"Clang!" The Second Holy Spirit actually used his right hand to directly block a level-five soul tool, the Crimson Flame Blade. Immediately afterwards, six soul rings also appeared on his body. The six soul rings instantly turned into a burning state, transforming into black flames that surrounded his body.

Huo Zhanji looked at the green soul fire flickering in the eye sockets of the Second Holy Spirit, "I've confirmed that you are an evil soul master, so you can die now."

On the other side, the Great Holy Spirit also sprang up, and with his first two soul rings emitting the same burning appearance as the Second Holy Spirit, six skeletons emerged from the cracked wall and, together with the Second Holy Spirit, quickly pounced on Huo Zhanji and Nana.

"I'm sorry, your attacks are ineffective against me. Thank you for your help, Elder Yi." Huo Zhanji's red eyes instantly turned gray.

"Leave it to me. What a familiar aura... I hear the mercy of death. Purify, you pitiful spirits," Electrox said.

The white flames that originally clung to the two Holy Spirits vanished completely under Electrox's purifying power. At the same time, the purifying power covered the area, and countless vengeful spirits and imprisoned souls slowly shed their evil power, transforming from pitch-black evil into the most primal transparent white.

"Holy Son! The power of the Holy Emperor will guide you. Under the leadership of the Holy Emperor and you, this world will eventually be ruled by us! To die at the hands of the Holy Son is my supreme honor, hahahaha..." Amidst the maniacal laughter, the Great Holy Spirit and the Second Holy Spirit completely disappeared into the layer of white flames.

"Go see your families. When they are completely purified, they will return to where they belong." Huo Zhanji said, then turned and walked out.

The faint sound of wailing came from the tunnel inside the room; clearly, the holy servants had found the souls of their loved ones.
