Ghost Immortal

Li Feng also noticed it.

The lyrics, when pieced together, tell the story of a ghost marriage.

Red lanterns are hung in the first month of the lunar calendar, and the bride gets into the bridal sedan chair, which is then carried to the mountain god temple.

The mountain god chuckled and said that the bride was beautiful and should stay in the temple to be my wife.

Then the mountain god appeared, the groom turned into a tiger, and the bridal sedan chair turned into a coffin.

The bride, dressed in a red wedding gown, lay down in the coffin and never came out again.

Li Feng said with a gloomy expression, "This isn't a play; it's about the tiger demon's wedding back then."

Qiu Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief: "A tiger demon actually got married?"

"It's not a wedding, it's kidnapping!"

Li Feng stared at the female ghost dressed in a wedding gown.

"This woman must be a bride from a nearby village. She was abducted to the mountains by a tiger demon on her wedding day. She was still wearing her wedding dress, which means that the day she died was her wedding day."

"The tiger demon killed the bridegroom, kidnapped her to the mountains, locked her in its lair, and tortured her to death. After her death, her soul was refined into a vengeful ghost."

As soon as he finished speaking, the female ghost in the wedding dress stopped in her tracks.

It slowly turned its head, its empty eye sockets facing the direction of the wooden house.

It was as if you could see through the wooden planks to the person inside the room, whose lips gradually turned upwards, splitting all the way down to below the cheekbone, revealing the white gums inside.

In a high-pitched voice, it sang to the three people inside the wooden house: "Grandpa Mountain God, lift your veil! Oh!"

"Underneath the veil are bones! Oh!!"

After singing those two lines, it suddenly reached out with both hands, grabbed the collar of its tattered wedding dress, and ripped it open.

The wedding dress turned into pieces and fell to the ground, revealing the corpse beneath it, a truly horrifying sight.

Its chest cavity was cut open, and its ribs were turned outward like two rows of withered branches, leaving the chest cavity empty.

The heart and other organs have disappeared, leaving only a dark, empty cavity.

The inner wall of the cavity was covered with densely packed dark red runes.

The talisman writhed, like earthworms crawling on the flesh.

Deep inside the cavity, something seemed to be pulsating.

A fist-sized, dark red tumor, shaped like a twisted heart, was embedded between the spine and the remaining fascia, throbbing rhythmically.

When it jumps, all the corpses of the changgui tremble.

Li Feng said coldly, "This thing might be the essence of the tiger demon. The tiger demon divided its demon soul into more than a dozen parts and planted them in the bodies of these accomplices. Each part of the demon soul is alive and connected to the tiger demon's original body."

"The tiger demon controls the vengeful spirits through its demonic essence, and the blood and essence consumed by the vengeful spirits are also fed back to the tiger demon through the demonic essence. This is not just puppetry, but a wicked method of symbiosis!"

Qiu Lan's face drained of all color: "So, these vengeful spirits are all part of the tiger demon's body?"

Li Feng shook his head: "It's the other way around. The tiger demon split itself into more than a dozen parts and kept them in the bodies of these changhu. These changhu are its warehouse, its clones, and its food."

"If it is seriously injured, it can devour the demon soul inside a changgui at any time to restore its vitality. That's why it makes the changgui perform. This is not to show off, but to feed them."

"With each line sung by the ghouls, the resonance between the demonic souls intensifies, and the tiger demon absorbs more essence. This performance is its gluttonous feast!"

As if to confirm his statement, the chanting of the ghosts suddenly changed tone.

All the ghosts opened their mouths at the same time, singing the same line, but each ghost sang it in a different tone.

A dozen or so sounds piled up one on top of another, forming an eerie harmony, a buzzing sound.

"Mountain God...getting married..."

"The groom...turns into a tiger..."

"The bride...is placed in the coffin..."

"I bow to Heaven and Earth!!!"

All the ghosts bowed in unison towards the wooden house.

More than a dozen ghouls bent over at the same time, their spines making a cracking sound, like dry bones rubbing together.

They bend at the same angle, as if measured with a ruler.

"Bowing to our parents twice!!!"

The ghosts turned around and bowed a second time towards the main peak of Black Wind Ridge.

When the child ghost bowed, its head fell off its neck and rolled to the ground.

It crouched down and frantically groped around on the ground before finally managing to pick up its head.

It was put back on his neck, and he continued to sing along with the other ghosts.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!!!"

The ghosts stood in two rows facing each other, bowing to one another.

When the female ghost in her wedding dress and the old ghost bowed to each other, the old man's jaw suddenly dislocated, and his entire jawbone, along with half of his tongue, fell to the ground.

The female ghost bent down, picked up the jawbone, and put it back on the old man's face like a mask, then continued to worship.

"Send them to the bridal chamber!!"

All the ghosts turned around at the same time, facing the wooden house.

A dozen pairs of empty eye sockets stared in unison at the direction where the three were hiding.

The female ghost in her wedding dress stretched out a hand, pointed at the wooden house, and sang:

"There are three little Taoist priests in the bridal chamber... Oh!!!"

"One fat, one skinny... Oh!!!"

"There's still a white dough sheet... Oh!!!"

"Perfect for making snacks to go with the mountain god's drinks... Wow!!!"

It shrieked, shaking the dust off the wooden house.

All the ghouls screamed at the same time, and the dozen or so voices converged into a sound wave that shook the doors and windows of the wooden house.

The corpse water array patterns on the ground glowed with a dark red light.

The lines drawn with the corpse fluid resembled gunpowder with a lit fuse.

One after another, they ignited, and the dark red demonic light spread rapidly along the array patterns, connecting the entire tiger head pattern into a whole in the blink of an eye.

The tiger's two eyes were directly facing the front door of the wooden house.

Then, Tiger Head opened his eyes.

Two eyes formed from demonic light actually moved as if they were alive, their pupils narrowed to thin lines, staring intently at the three people inside the wooden house.

As it swept over Li Feng, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

My limbs and bones felt frozen, stiff and heavy.

"Junior brother! I can't move my legs!" Qiu Sheng cried out in terror.

Li Feng also felt it; a chill kept seeping out of his body.

Wherever the tiger's eye of the Corpse Water Formation gazes, the yang energy in the human body will rapidly dissipate, at a rate far exceeding normal losses.

If you are targeted for more than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, your yang energy will be completely drained.

Even if the tiger demon doesn't come to eat them, they will still turn into three stiff corpses.

"We can't wait any longer."

Li Feng bit his tongue, the sharp pain temporarily freeing him from the stiffness, and pulled out three Fiery Talismans from his sleeve.

"Qiusheng, Qiulan, stay close to me, charge northeast!"

He infused his spiritual power into the talismans, and the three Fiery Talismans ignited simultaneously.

The blazing flames leaped on the talisman, but were not released immediately. Instead, he suppressed them with his spiritual power, condensing them into three fist-sized fireballs that hovered above his palm.

"Walk!"

Li Feng kicked open the wooden door of the cabin and rushed out first.

Three fireballs hurtled northeastward in a triangular formation. The pure yang fire of the Fiery Talisman exploded on the dark red corpse water array pattern, emitting a hissing burning sound.

When the corpse fluid met the raging fire, it instantly evaporated into a dark yellow poisonous mist. The poisonous mist contained countless tiny screams, which were fragments of vengeful spirits sealed in the corpse fluid, which were completely reduced to nothingness in the flames.

The three demons blocking the northeast direction were hit by the fireball, and their pale skin instantly burst into flames.

They screamed and rolled on the ground, the tiger demon spirits in their chests throbbing violently in the flames, emitting a sharp sound like a baby crying.

A gap quickly appeared in the formation.

"quick!"

Li Feng rushed through the gap first and shouted to the two of them.

Qiu Sheng and Qiu Lan followed closely behind.

Qiulan ran at the back, shaking the soothing bell in her hand, emitting sound waves to block the ghosts that surrounded her from both sides.

The sound of the bell striking the ghosts can temporarily slow their movements.

The three rushed out of the gap and ran wildly along the mountain path into the depths of the dense forest.

As Li Feng ran, he glanced back at the ghost that had been struck by the Fiery Talisman.

It was burned beyond recognition on the spot, but the demonic spirit in its chest was still beating.

The demonic soul released dark red demonic energy, which wrapped around the charred skeleton, and then rapidly grew rotten flesh and fascia.

In less than ten breaths, the three vengeful spirits stood up again, dragging their charred bodies as they continued their pursuit.

"How come these vengeful spirits are so hard to kill?" Qiu Sheng was panting heavily, and almost stumbled and fell, but Li Feng quickly grabbed him.

"They're not ordinary ghosts," Li Feng explained as he ran.

"The tiger demon dismantles its demon soul and implants it into their bodies, which is equivalent to turning itself into more than a dozen lives. Even if you burn the body of a changgui, its demon soul is still there, and it can reshape its body with demonic energy at any time."

"Unless you use the most yang and yang power to blast the demon's soul to dust in one go, or directly kill the tiger demon's body to cut off the source of its demonic power, no matter how many times you fight, it will be useless!"
