Chapter 213 Times Have Changed; Magic Doesn't Work Anymore

Chapter 132 The Famously Dramatic Scene

Beside the pool.

Qiao Yu's brows furrowed involuntarily.

Because he couldn't see the female ghost that Tang Xiaoxiao was talking about either, or he would have cleaved her in two already.

What ghost-catching spells? None of that stuff was as useful as a big blade.

"Tang Xiaoxiao, where is the female ghost? Point me in a direction," Qiao Yu said to Tang Xiaoxiao.

"Okay, she's right..."

Tang Xiaoxiao nodded quickly. She had just raised her hand to point out the direction when her whole body suddenly stiffened.

Immediately afterward, Tang Xiaoxiao's eyes turned pure white, and she wore an eerie smile on her face as she walked step by step towards the pool.

"Stop her! She's been bewitched!"

Although Zhang Erhe couldn't open his eyes for the time being, he immediately spoke up to warn them.

Tang Aotian quickly hugged Tang Xiaoxiao when he heard this.

"Xiaoxiao, wake up!"

Tang Xiaoxiao, who was being held, let out a sharp cry that didn't sound human. Then, she actually flung Tang Aotian away in one go!

You have to know, Tang Aotian was a mid-level cultivator, while Tang Xiaoxiao was only at the beginner level!

"Such intense Yin energy, you must have at least a hundred lives on your hands. You evil ghost, today I will shatter your soul!"

Zhang Erhe stood up. Although his celestial eye was burned, he was even more sensitive with his eyes closed.

He vaguely felt a strong Yin energy floating above the pool, and that Yin energy was constantly guiding Tang Xiaoxiao's body.

Zhang Erhe bit his fingertip, took out a yellow talisman, and began to draw on it, chanting words.

"Left supports the Six Jia, right defends the Six Ding, before me is the Yellow God, behind me is Yue Zhang, divine consciousness slays, not avoiding the powerful."

"Godly Ghost Seven Kill Decree! Activate!"

Zhang Erhe finished chanting, and the yellow talisman was instantly thrown out.

A surge of righteous energy with intense killing intent swept forward.

"Ah!"

The yellow talisman exploded, and the female ghost let out a chilling, eerie scream. The intense Yin energy also suddenly weakened.

Tang Xiaoxiao, who had been controlled, instantly regained clarity in her eyes. Once awake, she was afraid for a while and hurried back.

At this time, she was only one step away from falling into the pool.

The female ghost, wounded by Zhang Erhe, completely appeared before everyone's eyes. Her disheveled, eerie appearance made everyone present shudder.

The female ghost shrieked and spat out a mouthful of Yin energy, rushing towards Zhang Erhe.

"How is this possible? She can still move after being hit by the Godly Ghost Seven Kill Decree?"

Zhang Erhe had obviously underestimated the ferocity of the female ghost.

Due to temporarily losing his sight, Zhang Erhe could only rely on his senses to dodge the female ghost.

He leaned backward into a bridge position, barely dodging the female ghost's incoming claws, avoiding being disemboweled.

However, the Yin energy attached to the claws still scratched Zhang Erhe's abdomen. The wound festered rapidly, and the intense Yin energy continuously corroded his flesh.

Failing in one move, the female ghost's figure twisted into an eerie angle in the air, and she attacked Zhang Erhe again.

However, this time, Zhang Erhe didn't dodge or evade, letting the female ghost's claws pierce his chest!

Qiao Yu, who had come over to help, was also stunned. Then, he saw Zhang Erhe close his eyes, form a hand seal, and shout.

"Nine Heavens Responding to the Primal Thunder, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable!"

A ghostly blue arc of lightning danced in his palm, and that kind of terrifying heavenly power was the greatest nemesis of Yin spirits.

Boom!

A vast force of thunder, like a heavenly punishment, struck the female ghost head-on.

The thunder exploded, and that incomparably fierce power directly blasted the female ghost's figure until it became somewhat transparent.

Zhang Erhe took out another yellow talisman and stuck it on the female ghost's forehead.

The female ghost's somewhat translucent figure instantly froze, then twitched rapidly.

The yellow talisman ignited spontaneously, burning along with the female ghost. The female ghost opened her mouth full of black blood and let out a sharp cry.

The shrill wails made people feel cold all over, but the female ghost still couldn't escape and was directly burned to ashes by Zhang Erhe.

"Daoist Zhang is indeed amazing!" Tang Aotian couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Tang Xiaoxiao and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

The sense of oppression that the female ghost brought them was just too strong.

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Erhe coughed up a mouthful of black blood and sat down to heal his injuries.

He had also suffered serious injuries.

"This Daoist Zhang of the Zhang family is indeed well-deserved, but... that female ghost is probably not that easy to deal with."

In the crowd watching outside the instance, an old man shook his head.

"Uncle Qi, do you know the origin of that female ghost?"

The old man nodded.

"The female ghost was a famous opera singer in her lifetime, but she unfortunately married a beast in human clothing, a husband with a heart of snakes and scorpions!"

"In order to combine with the daughter of a wealthy family, her husband set up a trap of adultery, causing his wife to be stoned to death by the crowd, and then dumped her body in the deep pool."

"After her death, her vengeful spirit lingered, killing hundreds of people within three days! Such monstrous resentment is not so easy to deal with!"

Sure enough, as soon as the old man finished speaking, just when everyone thought the danger had passed, the eerie singing started again!

"The man is at his happiest, the woman is heartbroken,

The grievances in my heart are known by the moon,

It is not easy to meet, but easy to part..."

Everyone's nerves tightened again, and even Zhang Erhe's face couldn't help but flash a hint of horror.

The female ghost, who had already been beaten to the point of soul scattering, actually appeared again!

"Run! Quick, run for your lives! This female ghost doesn't know what she experienced in her lifetime, this resentment is rare in the world! Run!"

Zhang Erhe roared.

Tang Aotian and the others naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to stay and wait for death. They were almost using both hands and feet, fleeing like madmen.

However, no matter where they ran, a deep pool would eventually appear in front of them.

Tang Aotian knew that they must have encountered the legendary ghost wall.

"It's no good, Daoist Zhang, we can't escape at all!" Tang Aotian's face was ugly. "Damn it, just a ghost, let's see how fierce you can be!"

Tang Aotian drew out his silver-white spear, and the spear shot towards the female ghost like a thunderbolt.

As a result, the female ghost teleported, and the spear instantly missed.

"Hmph, so you're still afraid? Sky Piercing Spear!"

Tang Aotian twisted his waist, using the spear as a club, and directly slammed it down on the female ghost's head!

Unexpectedly, the female ghost's figure disappeared strangely in place again, and appeared behind Tang Aotian the next moment.

"Brother Aotian, be careful!" Zhang Erhe reminded, but it was too late.

An icy ghost hand landed on Tang Aotian's shoulder from behind. Tang Aotian felt as if his shoulder was frozen, and he instantly lost consciousness!

Then, the female ghost threw him away with force. Tang Aotian's body flew out like a broken sack, fell heavily to the ground, and coughed up a large mouthful of blood.

Zhang Erhe also cursed himself in his heart for being too careless. Although the Celestial Eye technique could see invisible ghosts, once the Celestial Eye was not closed properly, the backlash of the Daoist magic would cause the caster to lose sight for a period of time.

If he hadn't been ambushed by the female ghost at the beginning, he wouldn't have been beaten down by the female ghost with his strength.

"If it really doesn't work... I can only use that move."

Zhang Erhe made a decision secretly, and his whole body's Daoist magic suddenly began to condense towards his dantian.

At this time, Zhang Erhe's ears, which were tightly closed, twitched slightly. He heard a footstep walking in front of him.

Then came a strong baleful aura. He instantly knew who it was. Zhang Erhe quickly advised.

"Little Brother Qiao Yu, you should run away quickly, don't waste your effort! This female ghost has monstrous resentment and amazing strength, ordinary spells are useless against her!"

Qiao Yu grinned.

"Master, times have changed. Those Daoist spells don't work anymore. Watch me perform ancestor possession for you, using force to break all spells."

"Ancestor, grant me strength!"

Then he slashed forward, directly sending the female ghost flying backward.

"Ah?" Zhang Erhe was directly stunned.

What was using force to break all spells? The Daoist sect didn't seem to have this thing.

And what was the ancestor granting you strength? Did they have an ancestor in the Daoist sect who practiced muscles and exorcised demons with physics?
