To the huge world of cultivation, Shi Chishang is a complete rookie.
Or, there is no need for a huge cultivation world, just in the circle of cultivators in Jiaxing, Shi Chishang is also a rookie.
Compared with strength, weak chicken.
Compared with knowledge, weak chicken.
Than treasure, weak chicken.
However, a very important point is...
"I'm a rookie, but I'm not an idiot, okay?" Shi Chishang rolled his eyes and said angrily, "How can someone who has practiced magic still not know his own family?"
Shi Yirui spread his hands and said helplessly: "Can you listen to what I say? I really don't know my own family. Let's put it this way, the spells I just taught were all taught to me by my father since I was a child, but he has never talked to me. I have said something about my family background, but if it doesn’t work, just consider me a member of the Jiaxing Shi family.”
"It turns out she is the eldest lady of the Shi family in Jiaxing. I am disrespectful and disrespectful."
Shi Chishang playfully cupped his fists and saluted, but Shi Yirui was not afraid of the stage and responded with a grand gesture of cupping his fists.
"What about you?" Shi Yirui asked.
"Me? I'm an anonymous disciple of the outer sect of Heming Mountain, right?" Shi Chishang scratched his head and replied.
Shi Yirui was confused: "What is an anonymous disciple of the outer sect?"
"That's it..." Shi Chishang didn't know how to answer for a moment. Fortunately, Qian Hanxuan not far away suddenly made a muffled sound, causing several people to turn their heads to look.
After a while, Qian Hanxuan made no movement after that muffled groan. Shi Chishang looked away and frowned: "Have you ever found a way out?"
"No," Shi Yirui shook his head gently, "After you started practicing, I walked around the third floor. All the windows were sealed. My spells have miraculous effects on ghosts, but they have no effect on seals. It’s not big, why don’t you come and give it a try?”
Shi Chishang shook his head and said: "Those sealing plates are engraved with formation patterns. They should be blessed by magic formations. I can't blast them open."
"Do we have to kill those ghosts before we can go out?" Shi Yirui asked confused.
"Maybe that's it." Zheng Duobao whispered.
Gu Yewen said anxiously: "That's right! Didn't the president and this big brother just kill four ghosts? Now there are only two left. Wouldn't it be better to just find them and kill them?"
"It's not that simple," Shi Chishang looked at them, "Let's put it this way, ghosts can go through walls, but I can't. If it can't defeat me and just walk away through the wall, how can I still go through all the walls to chase it? Can’t do it?”
"In this case..." Shi Yirui suddenly laughed, "You come to kill the ghosts. How about catching the ghosts? How about I come?"
Seeing a few people looking over, Shi Yirui smiled and said: "My Shi family's magic is not good at anything else. I am first-class in finding and catching ghosts. It's just that I'm not good enough in cultivation and can't kill ghosts. But I think you can't do it when I'm old." He looked so fierce just now, he is definitely a good ghost killer."
Shi Chishang shrugged. Seeing Shi Yirui's previous spell to restrain the ghost, it would be good to cooperate with her.
At this time, Ji Hong timidly came over and whispered: "President, this... what is going on with all this? Why is the vice president suddenly possessed by a ghost? And these things at night... are from the TV station Is the show right? Right?"
Glancing at Ji Hong, Shi Yirui's eyes were faint and he shook his head and said: "You have all seen it with your own eyes, why should I lie to you? There are indeed ghosts in this hotel, and the level is not low. The ones just now were full of resentment. , I’m afraid they are all resentful ghosts.”
"Resentful ghost?" Shi Chishang's heart moved and asked, "How can you tell the difference?"
Shi Yirui looked at him with some doubts: "Don't you know? Resentful ghosts are formed by wandering ghosts absorbing yin energy, which inspired the unwilling resentment before death, so they are full of resentment."
"So the black energy just now was resentment?" Shi Chishang asked in surprise.
Staring at Shi Chishang carefully, Shi Yirui asked suspiciously: "Old Shi, how come you are more of a novice than me when you ask this question?"
"I told you that I am an unnamed disciple of the outer sect. The food is normal. Tell me about it." Shi Chishang said with a smile.
"Seeing your smile... I think we must have been the same family before," Shi Yirui muttered twice, and then gave Shi Chishang an answer.
It turns out that ghosts, from low to high, are divided into twelve levels: physical ghosts, wandering ghosts, resentful ghosts, evil ghosts, fierce ghosts, fierce ghosts, fierce ghosts, ghost soldiers, ghost generals, ghost kings, ghost emperors, and ghost emperors.
The lowest form of ghosts, as the name suggests, has only one shape. For example, the few black shadows that Shi Chishang and Ji Hong first saw are actually ghosts. They have no attack power, and they don't even have sanity. They are just in a state of confusion. , will move closer to places with heavy Yin energy according to instinct.
As for the wandering ghost, the shape ghost gradually developed consciousness and was able to control the body to move freely, and the speed was several times faster than before, so it was called the wandering ghost.
The ghosts that Chi Shang and Shi Yi Rui killed just now were third-level resentful ghosts. This kind of ghost has begun to awaken the memory before death, and has been eroded by the unwillingness and resentment before death. It turns the ghost energy all over the body into resentment, doubles the strength, and can control people's hearts with resentment.
Then Shi Yirui also explained to Shi Chishang how to identify ghosts. At this time, Shi Chishang gradually realized that what he had absorbed in the hospital was definitely the energy of death, but later the ghosts on Zheng Duobao's body died. It should be resentment that overflows later.
No wonder he felt there was a difference between the two at first, but it was so simple that he couldn't tell the difference. At this moment, Shi Chi Shang realized that the difference between the two was that the latter had more resentment than the former.
Seeing Shi Chishang's eyes rolling, Shi Yirui's heart trembled inexplicably: "What do you want to ask again? Just tell me!"
"Happy!" Shi Chishang patted her shoulder happily and asked, "Ghosts all have levels, so we must have them too, right?"
"You, an anonymous disciple of the outer sect, don't think so because you live at the foot of Heming Mountain, right?" Shi Yirui rolled his eyes, "I'm afraid this is something every cultivator needs to know at the beginning. Something about that, right?"
"Sister Shi is so smart!" Shi Chishang blinked and said with a smile.
"Get lost! Don't act cute to me, Hun Dan!" Shi Yirui rubbed his arms covered with goosebumps and said angrily, "Practitioners are also divided into twelve levels. Since you are from Heming Mountain, you should It belongs to the Taoist system..."
Shi Chishang suddenly asked: "What about you?"
"Me?" Shi Yirui blinked his big eyes a few times, "My dad said we belong to the ghost realm."
"President, aren't you a ghost hunter? How can it be considered a ghost?" Zheng Duobao asked doubtfully.
"The eagle still catches sparrows to eat. Does he count as a bird?" Shi Yirui glanced at him and asked arrogantly.
Zheng Duobao was sweating profusely and laughed dryly: "Forget it, forget it, he is... a bird."
"Then let's talk about the levels of ghosts." Shi Chishang knew that he was probably one of the ghosts, so he asked directly.
Seeing him asking about the ghost path system, Shi Yirui's eyes seemed to be filled with brilliance, and he slowly replied: "The twelve levels of the ghost path system, from lowest to highest, are sea opening, soul gathering, soul nourishing, moon washing, and night travel. , Li Yang, Riyou, Mimetic Soul, Body Shaping, Soul Tribulation, True Form, Palm Sea.”
"The sea-opening stage is the artificial opening of the sea of souls, referred to as the soul sea." Shi Yirui nodded his eyebrows and said with a smile, "The size of the soul sea affects the level of the subsequent realm. Most people will stay in this realm for ten years. Left and right, expand the soul sea to the maximum, and then break through to the soul gathering stage."
"The soul gathering stage is to condense the sea mist naturally formed on the soul sea, integrate it into your own thoughts, and construct it into your own soul mist. You can think of it as the mud used to make ceramic figurines. When the soul mist is completely condensed into a human form, even if It’s the peak of the Soul Gathering Stage.”
"After the human form is condensed, it is the soul-nurturing period. As the name suggests, the soul must be nourished. All resources, including elixirs, are used to warm and nourish the soul. The stronger the soul-nurturing period is at this stage, the stronger the soul body will be in the future."
"The following moon baths and night tours are to absorb the power of the lunar calendar, and Liyang and day tours are to absorb the power of the sun..." Shi Yirui's mouth went dry as he spoke, and he picked up the water bottle and took a sip. Nai said, "Let's talk about this first. Lao Shi, according to what I just said, what state are you in now?"
According to Shi Yirui, the gray sea between Shi Chishang's brows is the so-called soul sea. He had absorbed the resentment of four resentful ghosts before, and the soul sea expanded a lot. So according to Shi Yirui, he should return In the sea opening period.
But... isn't it?
How many third-level resentful ghosts can I kill with a first-level sea-opening stage?
Is he really too strong, or are those resentful ghosts too careless?
After being startled, Shi Chishang hesitated and said, "I should still be in the stage of opening up the sea."
Shi Yirui's reaction was the same as his. He jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on and exclaimed in surprise: "Are you kidding me?"
Staring at Shi Chishang closely until he was sure that he was not teasing her, Shi Yirui murmured: "Oh my god, did I meet a wild genius casual cultivator? Then should I take the opportunity to catch you and date you? Forget it. I have no feelings for you, at least not now. Well, let me just let you become my father's master. With such a talented junior brother to protect me, won't I be able to walk sideways in Jiaxing, no, Zhejiang in the future? "
Seeing that Shi Yirui's expression became more and more excited as he spoke, with a hint of weird elation, Shi Chishang got goosebumps inexplicably, coughed slightly, and asked, "Have you contacted the outside world?"
"Junior brother, cough, no, Lao Shi," Shi Yirui said with a bitter smile, "We also want to contact the outside, but unfortunately there is no signal at all here."
"It should be related to the formation. I guess the key to getting out is the ghost in this hotel." He raised his head and looked above his head. "Let's go up and sweep them layer by layer."
"Then what should they do?" Shi Yirui looked at the people in the supernatural society next to him.
Shi Chishang was silent for a while and then said, "Wake them all up first."
As Shi Chishang's number one henchman, Zheng Duobao cleverly called Ji Hong, Gu Yewen and other people who were awake to wake up all those who were still sleeping.
When everyone was woken up, Shi Chishang clapped his hands and said calmly: "Listen, we are grasshoppers on a rope now. If we want to get out, the only hope is to kill all the ghosts in the hotel. "
After glancing around, Shi Chishang said in a deep voice: "So now, you have to make a choice, whether you plan to go up with us or stay here."
"Are we going to fight those ghosts too?" a female member trembled.
"No, you are ordinary people, you can't fight them." Shi Yirui shook his head.
One person said doubtfully: "Then let's follow..."
"Ghosts can go through walls. If we go up and want to kill them all, can't they come down through the walls and kill you all?" Shi Chishang said coldly.
After hearing this, everyone realized that their opponents were not human beings, but disembodied ghosts. It was their talent to walk through walls.
Besides, even humans, this hotel is so big, and Shi Chishang and Shi Yirui are just two people, there is no way to completely seal off every floor. Even if the ghosts don't pass through the wall, they can still bypass them and run down to attack themselves.
