The Demonic Taoist Priest Emerges from the Mountain

"Get out of here!"

I roared at the villagers who were constantly approaching my father, my voice booming like a bell.

At the same time, I quickly threw out the [Thunder Talisman] in my hand.

However, I did not use this [Thunder Talisman] to harm these villagers.

Now that I have my doubts, I am even less likely to fall into the blind monk's trap.

The Thunder Talisman exploded with a bang just in front of the villagers.

On the flat ground, black lightning rolled and instantly blasted out a crater about one meter square.

Inside the pit, black lightning kept leaping and flashing.

Even I was speechless at the sheer power it possessed.

If I had used black lightning to blow up that mute guy, he probably wouldn't even be left with ashes.

My move was incredibly intimidating.

The villagers who had originally intended to harm my father immediately stopped in their tracks.

Their gazes fell upon the crater blasted open by the black lightning, and each of them wore a look of terror.

These people are greedy for life and afraid of death; they bully the weak and fear the strong.

The reason my father was often talked about behind his back in the village was largely because he was too gentle and honest.

That's why these people dare to take advantage of others.

But I'm different.

My temperament was shaped by Master Qin.

To say that Ning Jinrou has a bad temper is true, but in some ways I have an even worse temper than her.

Jokingly speaking, I'm not afraid of ghosts, so why would I be afraid of this bunch of troublemakers?

Seeing that these people were intimidated by me, I took out another [Thunder Talisman] and quickly walked to my father's side.

He activated the little ghost energy he had left, his expression cold and stern.

When it comes to showing off, I'm a master.

After all, I've been by Master Qin's side for over ten years, and that demeanor is ingrained in my bones.

My eyes swept over the names of the villages in front of me.

The villagers immediately shrank back.

"Why don't you try taking one more step forward?"

I gave a cold laugh.

The [Thunder Talisman] in his hand crackled with streaks of black lightning.

The crackling sounds were frantically stimulating the villagers' nerves.

Seeing the fear in their eyes, my smile grew colder, and I said sarcastically, "It seems you don't really believe in the so-called Buddha."

"If this Buddha were truly so efficacious, he should have been able to save your lives, right? You wouldn't be so afraid of my little [Thunder Talisman]."

My words were very skillful.

Wasn't the blind monk trying to make me take action by directing the villagers' anger at him?

Alright, I'll take action, but the results may not have met the blind monk's expectations.

I didn't hurt anyone.

At the same time, I shifted the villagers' attention back to the blind monk.

At this moment, the blind monk at the back of the crowd had an extremely gloomy face.

After listening to my guidance, the villagers all turned around and looked at the blind monk standing at the back of the crowd.

The blind monk immediately dropped his ferocious expression and once again revealed his calm and collected demeanor.

He held his prayer beads in his hand and walked step by step into the courtyard.

"Friendly methods."

"You're threatening the lives of the entire village to force this monk to act? Can you bear that price?"

The blind monk looked at me and asked.

A slight smile played on my lips. I took two steps forward, stopped, and took out a calligraphy brush dipped in cinnabar from my bag, playing with it in my hand.

A moment later, I looked up at the blind monk.

"Otherwise, you can give it a try."

I would say I was incredibly arrogant.

The blind monk's lips twitched, then he smiled.

"Stubborn to the end!"

"In that case, this humble monk will certainly have to learn from you!"

The words fell.

The blind monk's prayer beads suddenly slammed towards my heart.

The instant I saw him move, I immediately swung the vermilion pen in my hand towards the direction of my feet.

As the vermilion pen hit the ground, I roared, "Activate the formation!"

Immediately afterwards, a blood-red barrier suddenly rose up, with my house as the boundary.

This unexpected turn of events startled everyone present.

Even the blind monk's hand froze in mid-air.

He looked around in surprise and disbelief.

And that is my opportunity.

This is my only chance!

Without any hesitation, I unleashed the [Thunder Talisman], which I had been eager to use, and it struck the blind monk directly in the chest.

Black lightning leaped and roared.

The blind monk was instantly blasted away by me.

My lips started to curl into a smile.

Actually, I had already started making arrangements when I returned in the afternoon.

I knew that the blind monk would definitely send someone to keep an eye on Ning Jinrou and me.

He couldn't possibly be so at ease as to let Ning Jinrou and me spend a peaceful day in Liuweng Village.

So when I came back, I used the excuse of repairing the fence and yard wall.

Secretly, I set up a formation called the "Thirteen Lightning Array" around my house.

However, I'm afraid that if I activate my [Thirteen Lightning Array] too early, the blind monk will notice.

That's why I haven't activated the array's core yet.

Instead, I led the blind monk step by step into my [Thirteen Thunder Light Array].

As long as he enters the formation, I am confident that I can kill him.

Of course, this is not me being arrogant.

At noon, I used the [Qi Observation Technique] to detect that the blind monk was able to use the formation to mobilize the spiritual energy of this area.

So while I was setting up the Thirteen Lightning Array, I also secretly set up a smaller array called the Isolation Array.

This [isolation array] can isolate external spiritual energy.

However, my strength is too limited, and I can only keep this [isolation array] going for one breath.

I also cannot unleash the full power of the [Thirteen Lightning Array].

This formation can unleash thirteen lightning bolts in total, but with my current abilities, I can only unleash one bolt at most.

I then channeled this bolt of lightning into the [Thunder Talisman] in my hand.

The black lightning combined with the blood lightning within the [Thirteen Lightning Array] creates a formidable combination of power.

I set the key points of both formations in the same place.

The moment my vermilion pen hit the ground, both arrays activated simultaneously.

I intended to kill that blind monk with this move.

I watched as the blind monk was blown away by me, and he lay on the ground, barely alive, just like the mute man.

The villagers panicked.

Even my father, who was standing behind me, stared at me in disbelief.

"Child, what... what's going on?"

My dad asked, stunned.

I glanced at the blind monk lying on the ground.

He cleared his throat and said, "Father, you've all been fooled by him!"

As soon as I said that, everyone looked at me.

"This guy is neither a spokesperson for Buddha nor a respectable sorcerer."

"He has been in Liuweng Village for eight years, spent five years setting up his scheme, and for the next three years, he used Liuweng Village as bait, under the guise of being detached from worldly affairs, to lure outsiders, and through you, take their lives to achieve his goal."

Now I'm pretty sure that all those outsiders are dead!

My words were like water dripping into a hot oil pan; the crowd immediately erupted in chaos!
