Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

Zhao Yu's expression suddenly changed, and he directly summoned a palm-sized spiritual shield, which burst forth with a faint spiritual light, forming a protective barrier in front of him.

Cling!

The first flying dagger pierced through that protective barrier and struck the spiritual shield, setting off a thunderous noise. The tip of the flying dagger magical instrument bent, and the spiritual shield cracked heavily, losing its spirituality and falling from mid-air.

Almost the next moment, the second flying dagger pierced through the golden light protective cover in front of Brother Fang, entering his head and blasting a large hole through it.

The Three-Eyed Illusion Ghost, mentally linked with Brother Fang, let out a scream as its soul collapsed and died.

The Ghost Control Technique of the Yin Ghost Sect was extremely exquisite. Through the mysterious Human-Ghost Pact Secret Technique, it linked the human and ghost, allowing cultivators to command various powerful ghost creatures in their human form.

Under the Ghost Control Technique of the Yin Ghost Sect, a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator could even command a Foundation Establishment Stage evil ghost. To prevent backfire from the evil ghosts, once a cultivator died, the evil ghosts bound by contract would also perish.

Thus, those powerful evil ghosts had to protect their master, for if the master died, they too would perish.

Of course, if a cultivator used the pact secret technique to bind with an evil ghost, the death of the evil ghost would also cause significant damage to the cultivator.

Only the most top-tier evil ghosts in the hands of cultivators of the Yin Ghost Sect were bound using the Human-Ghost Pact Secret Technique. Ordinary ghost creatures were managed with standard Ghost Control Techniques.

With the death of the Three-Eyed Illusion Ghost, the thick fog surrounding the Zhao family immediately dispersed.

"Was I under an illusion?"

Ling Qianxue suddenly woke up, looking at the two Ling Mansion enforcement team cultivators who had fallen by her side, her heart chilled.

Only then did the cultivators from the Ling Mansion enforcement team escape from the illusion. However, just as they got free, they were attacked by the disciples of the Yin Ghost Sect, and several more of them died right away.

After dealing with Brother Fang, Zhao Yu engaged in a fierce battle with the horned ghost while using the Flying Dagger Technique, sending multiple magical instrument flying daggers shooting towards Brother Liu, who commanded the horned ghost.

Brother Liu's face changed drastically and said, "Brother Luo, cover me!"

The short-statured Brother Luo, possessing the ninth level of Qi Refinement, slapped his ghost jar. Dark qi surged, and a Skeleton Ghost that was eight feet tall, made of countless pitch-black bones, and holding a bone shield, instantly appeared, placing the bone shield in front of the two of them.

Cling!!

The flying dagger instantly struck the bone shield, shattering it, continued flying, and then was blocked by a superior magical instrument grade spiritual shield held by Brother Luo.

The flying dagger struck that spiritual shield, blasting numerous cracks in it. Brother Luo's hands, holding the shield, were shaken until they bled from the tiger's mouth, his body shook violently, and his face turned pale.

Among the many disciples of the Yin Ghost Sect who attacked this time, Brother Luo and the Skeleton Ghost's coordination could be regarded as the best in defense. Even the attacks of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator at the first level could be blocked a couple of times.

Flying dagger magical instruments continuously tore the Skeleton Ghost to pieces, ferociously bombarding Brother Luo's spiritual shield, blasting countless cracks into it, threatening to shatter at any moment.

"Die!!"

Taking advantage of the moment Brother Luo resisted, Brother Liu finally finished chanting the spell and summoned a second-order low-grade talisman, Yin Ghost's Breath.

The second-order low-grade talisman, Yin Ghost's Breath, flew into the air, self-ignited in the wind, and an evil ghost skull, constructed from a fierce and malevolent face, appeared mid-air, emitting an ominous aura as it opened its mouth to spray.

A jet of pitch-black Yin Ghost's Breath burst from the evil ghost's skull, enveloping Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu's expression changed dramatically. He quickly summoned a superior magical instrument grade small white bell and activated the Golden Light Talisman.

A layer of pale golden light appeared before Zhao Yu, and in front of him, the small white bell also burst forth with dazzling spiritual light, forming a white protective cover.

That Yin Ghost's Breath, dark as ink, sprayed onto the white protective cover, directly causing the cover to collapse and the small white bell-shaped magical instrument to lose its spirituality and fall to the ground.

Zhao Yu's light golden-colored Golden Light Protective Cover also flashed once and then collapsed and disappeared.

The Yin Ghost's Breath was also greatly depleted, but the remaining force still struck Zhao Yu's body.

A chilling, bone-piercing coldness instantly penetrated Zhao Yu's body, as if intending to completely freeze him. The mana inside him seemed to be sealed in ice, hardly circulating, frenziedly counteracting the invading Yin Ghost's Breath.

The vigorous vitality inside Zhao Yu, akin to a blazing furnace, was eroded by the Yin Ghost's Breath, becoming difficult to circulate.

Just then, the hundred Superior Evil Warding Talismans that Zhao Yu carried spontaneously ignited without wind, directly dispersing some of the Yin Ghost's Breath, allowing him to recover all his abilities.

The Horned Ghost took the opportunity to lunge a claw at Zhao Yu's heart.

Zhao Yu shook his Green Pine Sword, flinging the Horned Ghost's claw away, and deployed the Flying Dagger Technique, shooting out one dagger after another.

Clang!

A Flying Dagger penetrated the body of a Skeleton Ghost, struck the crack on the Spiritual Shield of Junior Brother Luo, shattering the shield completely and continuing into Junior Brother Luo's heart, pinning him to the ground.

Another flying dagger directly struck the head of Senior Brother Liu, who was in the process of activating a second-tier Second-Order Talisman, piercing through his skull.

The Horned Ghost screamed tragically, its body beginning to collapse and disappearing into wisps of black smoke.

"Senior Brother Liu!"

"....."

Seeing Senior Brother Liu and the other two elite warriors of the Yin Ghost Sect dead, the remaining Yin Ghost Sect disciples turned pale and frantically activated Featherweight Talismans, Armor Horse Talismans, and other talismans to scatter in all directions.

Ling Qian Xue clenched her silver teeth, losing the elegance she had always maintained, and called out very gracelessly, "Zhao Yu, help me kill them all! I will reward you handsomely!!"

Zhao Yu activated a Superior Featherweight Talisman, making his body as light as a swallow. He performed the Phantom Step Technique, ghost-like as dagger after dagger flashed out like lightning from him, piercing through the heads of those Yin Ghost Sect disciples one by one.

Ling Qian Xue and the rest of the Ling family enforcement team also pursued them frenziedly, eventually exterminating all of the Yin Ghost Sect disciples.

After annihilating those Yin Ghost Sect disciples, Ling Qian Xue rushed straight to the deepest part of Ling Mansion.

Inside the deepest part of Ling Mansion, in a First-Order Superior-Grade Green Wood large array, several Ling family cultivators were hiding.

"Qian Xue, you finally came!!"

Chapter Explore:

Inside the large array, a handsome middle-aged cultivator, Ling Haofei, who had lost an arm, sighed in relief upon seeing Ling Qian Xue and the cultivators with her and then deactivated the array.

Ling Qian Xue looked around at everyone in the array, her face turning very ugly as she asked, "Second Uncle, where are my parents?"

Ling Haofei said with a sad face, "Big Brother, Sister-in-law, they both perished in battle!"

Ling Qian Xue's face turned pale and she swayed slightly, clenching her teeth, "Where are they?"

Ling Haofei then led Ling Qian Xue to where the bodies of the couple Ling Haotian lay. She trembled and finally could not hold back her tears anymore.

Zhao Yu glanced at Ling Qian Xue from afar, noticed she was in bad shape, and began to happily search the bodies. Helping Ling Qian Xue was one of his main purposes, particularly to hunt down the Yin Ghost Sect disciples. Those disciples had possessions far superior to those of ordinary cultivators.
