While Lu Zhong was thinking, the ghost bride was already on the stage.
At this time, a sudden change occurred!
The wedding dress on her body was torn first, and then the hem of the skirt became sticky like blood, and blood began to drip to the ground. The floor was dyed red little by little, and a fierce aura suddenly emerged.
At the same time, the temperature in the compound was dropping rapidly.
After a while, white frost appeared on the green bricks.
Seeing her horrifying change, the sword cultivator had a complex look on his face at the moment, with a hint of unbearable determination, but his eyes soon became firm. Even if he risked his life, he would solve this scourge with his own hands.
But when he made up his mind, he inadvertently moved his eyes to the side, and found that Lu Zhong looked like he was watching a show, but he was stunned again.
"Is this junior really not afraid of death, or is he... a protective treasure given by his elders?"
Just as the sword cultivator was wondering, the ghost bride on the stage suddenly moved.
Lu Zhong was getting ready to watch a play when he felt something fall into his arms. It felt like silk.
He lowered his head, glanced at the thing in his arms, and said in surprise: "Big red flower?"
Although this big red flower is strange, it is incredibly bright red and sticky to the touch, as if it has been soaked in plasma, but it is indeed a symbol of the groom's identity.
Lu Zhong instantly understood that he had become the groom!
Well, I saw it in myself when I watched the show.
Almost at the same time, an astonishing malice enveloped him.
Strands of black hair were hanging down. As soon as they landed on Lu Zhong, they seemed to be alive, desperately trying to penetrate into his body. The weirdness didn't stop there, there was also a woman's murmur in his ears. It was still a teasing sound at first, but it soon turned into a death-threatening ghostly sound.
"Are you in such a hurry?" Lu Zhong was helpless.
He was originally curious and wanted to see the steps of the bridal chamber, but he never thought that the moment had come and the bloody wedding had already begun, and it started with him.
The ghost repair picture shows you!
"That's all, there's no need to waste an avatar just for curiosity. Now that we've finished watching this show, it's time to take action, so as not to cause any real deaths."
Just when Lu Zhong mobilized his own magic power and prepared to use thunder to break the ghost cultivator's illusion.
The next moment, the sword cultivator next to him was the first to take action. He was covered in golden light, and he swung his sword towards the ghost bride who appeared behind the groom and stretched out her fair and slender hands to take away his heart. .
"Ah!" screamed, and the ghost hand quickly retracted.
The Ghost Bride cast a hateful look at the sword cultivator, but she was severely injured by the sword. Her thin hands, which were originally as if they were alive, now had a deep sword mark, and black energy continued to spurt out. So that it could no longer be maintained and turned into a blue and white ghost hand.
"Ahhh!" screamed shrilly.
I saw a burst of Yin Qi erupting, and the ghost bride stood up like a waterfall with black hair as straight as needles.
The next moment, the sword cultivator felt that he was entangled with something. When he lowered his head, he saw that there were countless long black hairs. His movements suddenly became difficult. A plain hand appeared between his neck at some point, and long, sharp nails like blood shot out towards him. Pinch it down hard.
A ruthless look flashed in Jian Xiu's eyes.
Even if he dies, he will personally take away this scourge!
Without any hesitation, the sword cultivator recalled the magical flying sword and held the hilt of the sword behind him, before piercing his own chest with the sword to immobilize the ghost bride behind him.
…
He had already prepared three Yang Lei Zi, which could absolutely restrain ghost cultivators. At such a close distance, there was absolutely no chance for her to survive.
"Pfft", the long sword connected the two of them.
it is finally over.
The sword cultivator's eyes revealed the meaning of liberation.
His real name is "Chu Xun". He is a monk from Chujianmen in Weijiang Prefecture in the west of the mountain. He also has his own family and a Heman family.
Under the strict hierarchical system in Middle-earth, as a person with three spiritual roots, it was already the end for him to reach the end of the pill formation.
Therefore, all the thoughts were put on the youngest daughter Chu Lin, not hoping that she could break through the class and lead the Weijiang Chu family to become a Yuanying family.
It's just pure love, after all, he is the only descendant.
However, something unexpected happened, the sudden outbreak of aphansia, and the subsequent rise of ghost cultivators, causing the former order to disappear.
At first, Chu Xun was secretly happy, thinking that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and that it was his chance to achieve class promotion.
But she never thought that Chu Lin would be kidnapped by a ghost cultivator later.
When she appears again, she becomes a ghost bride.
"Lin'er, daddy will set you free right now!"
Chu Xun took out three Yang Leizi and prepared to detonate them. He had no intention of living alone. Besides, father and daughter went to hell together, so they had a companion on the way.
At this moment, his consciousness suddenly blurred.
When Chu Xun came back to his senses, he saw an explosion of lightning.
As soon as Lu Zhong took action, he easily broke the ghost cultivator's illusion, and the surrounding scene immediately returned to its original state. Everyone gathered on the wasteland without realizing it. The moonlight, as quiet as water, poured down, and it no longer looked as spooky as before.
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and for a while they didn't know what had happened.
Only Wu Renxun, Lin Ying and other senior family officials knew what had just happened. They were targeted by extremely powerful ghost cultivators who pulled them into the illusion.
Fortunately, he survived the disaster.
Thinking of this, everyone broke into a cold sweat.
Not far from the crowd, Lu Zhong stood next to a scorched figure. He used a solar spell as a habit and used the light to look at the object in his hand. It was the magic weapon used by the ghost cultivator just now.
This treasure is full of unknowns at first glance. Its shape is similar to the red comb used in dressing rooms. The material should be some kind of bones. The surface is engraved with blood-colored runes. There are many clots of coagulated blood remaining between the teeth of the comb, with a strong smell. The cold aura is obviously tempered by Yin Qi.
Lu Zhong tried to activate it with magic power, but failed as expected.
"It seems that it must be activated by Yin Qi, which is similar to the magic weapon of a demon cultivator..."
Then the lightning flashed in his hand, and with a crackling sound, the ghost treasure poured out a large amount of yin energy to resist the lightning attack, but it soon couldn't hold on, and the blood color and runes on the surface faded away, and it was crushed into powder by the five fingers.
After this incident, Lu Zhong learned a lot about ghost cultivators.
"With the Armored Wood Thunder Technique and the Purple Gold Extreme Fire, I am completely unafraid of ghost cultivators. In fact, with the help of the secret magic spirit fire to restrain the ghost cultivators, I can even do a little cross-level fighting. I really meet the strength. Comparable to a ghost cultivator in the late Nascent Soul, even if he is defeated, he can retreat calmly."
Thinking of this, he lowered his gaze and landed on the ghost bride.
The ghost bride was hit by lightning just now. The reason why she survived the injury by luck is because her soul is still in the body. She is not a ghost cultivator who abandoned the body. Otherwise, she would be rushed by the aura of the mighty heavenly tribulation, coupled with the Jiamu Yang The thunder's bombardment had already driven him to pieces.
…
Lu Zhong reached out and took a storage bag from her body.
After casually taking a look, there were quite a lot of things inside, but not many of value to immortal cultivators. They were all things needed for ghost cultivators, and then there were food items such as human flesh, human heart, human liver, or human skin. Bloody human bones and other ghost materials, as well as some ghost weapons.
To ghost cultivators, the entire human body is a treasure.
After searching for a while, he found what he wanted.
A jade slip dyed with blood, specially soaked in corpse oil and spices, has a strong smell. The hobbies of ghost cultivators are indeed unmatched by ordinary people.
Lu Zhong didn't care and used his spiritual consciousness to break away the jade slip.
"Blood Wedding Dress"
This is a book of ghost cultivation techniques.
It records a method to enter the ghost path, but it involves holding a bloody wedding, and the process is modeled after the evil "Ghost Bride". The purpose is to use this ritual to accumulate resentment in the Dantian, thereby achieving the purpose of "drawing Qi into the body." The difference from immortal cultivation is that the ghost path introduces yin energy into the body.
Further down, there are specific methods.
As separate as a mountain, the paths of immortals and ghosts are completely two cultivation systems. As an immortal cultivator, Lu Zhong, even the Nascent Soul Lord with profound magical power, can only understand roughly.
What he is most concerned about is the fantasy part of the rules.
It is unbelievable for an immortal cultivator that a ghost cultivator uses rules to kill people.
Even if the immortal cultivator has a high level of cultivation, he can only use the vitality of heaven and earth, and it is still a long time before he can set foot in the rules of heaven and earth.
But the ghost cultivator is different. As long as he sets foot in the foundation building realm, he can use the rules and illusions.
Although the two kinds of "rules" have different meanings, it still makes Lu Zhong deeply curious. However, after reading the whole article, he is still confused.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong could only give up.
At this moment, he noticed someone looking at him.
It's that sword cultivator.
Just now, Lu Zhong saw that this man wanted to commit suicide, so he stopped him.
Chu Xun looked at Lu Zhong with a very complicated look. He originally thought that this was a disciple of a noble family, but he never thought he was a Nascent Soul Lord. No wonder I had always had the attitude of watching the show before. With the strength of the Nascent Soul cultivator to crush the pill formation, he is indeed qualified for this.
Thinking that the other party had saved him, Chu Xun bowed deeply, cupped his hands and said:
"Junior Chu Xun, thank you senior for saving your life!"
Lu Zhong waved his hand and didn't care.
The reason why he saved people easily was because he saw the shadow of his old friend in this sword cultivator. He thought that the former one was also such a "righteous and awe-inspiring" person.
Sensing the emotion in Chu Xun's eyes, Lu Zhong couldn't help but said:
"What, you want to deal with her personally? That's up to you."
"...Thank you, senior!" Chu Xun was silent for a while before speaking.
Then, he took out an object from his arms, but it was a broken jade plate. He held it up with both hands and said, "It's hard to repay the kindness of saving a life. Please accept this object, senior. This jade plate has a great origin. It is said that it is related to an ancient incident." It’s related to the secret. Please forgive me for being clumsy and stupid, I can’t figure out the secret, so I can only let the seniors worry about it.”
"Yeah." Lu Zhong nodded and accepted it without politeness.
At the same time, he was secretly thinking in his heart.
"I also have a jade plate of this style. It seems that the gaps come from the same source. I didn't expect that it might also involve ancient secrets. This trip has been really rewarding!"
…
I don’t know what will happen if the jade plate is put together?
Then Chu Xun walked up to Ghost Xiu, picked up the magic sword in his hand, pierced his Dantian with the sword without hesitation, and used the sword energy to crush the ghost elixir inside. Immediately, pure ghost energy rose into the sky.
However, he did not take his life immediately, but sat cross-legged aside, as if waiting for something.
"What are you doing?" Lu Zhong asked.
"Senior, this junior is waiting for the two convoys to leave. This ghost cultivator entered the Gounan Ghost Emperor's harem and was highly valued, so he can form a ghost elixir within ten years. If this junior kills him, he may attract the Yuan Ying Lao Gui Gou's revenge, so I'm going to wait for a few days, and then..." Chu Xun said this and didn't say any more.
No matter how Chu Lin changes, she is still the most beloved little girl in Chu Xun's heart. The past few days of waiting were essentially the time he spent convincing himself.
Hearing this, Lu Zhong nodded.
He doesn't plan to care too much. No matter what happens to Chu Xun and Chu Lin in the future, it has nothing to do with him.
Furthermore, so what if this ghost cultivator survives and attracts the Goonan Ghost Emperor.
The worst case scenario is to kill both the old and the young.
When you come out to practice, you have to kill something.
Then Lu Zhong found Lin Ying, negotiated with the head of the Lin family, and asked for the girl. He didn't have to pay anything, it was the Lin family's compensation for saving his life.
Looking at the distant rainbow light, Lin Ying had a complicated expression on her face.
To be able to make a Nascent Soul cultivator ask for something is not a mediocre thing, but in his Lin family, such a person is just a servant with a foreign surname.
Even if Yaoyun achieves something in the future, she probably won't have the slightest connection with the Lin family.
Thinking of this, his emotions became more complicated.
…
Qingbufang, named after the ancient riverside wharf, was originally not ranked among the top names in Wunan Prefecture. However, after the disaster, its ranking gradually increased and it became the largest village in the area.
When Lu Zhong brought Yaoyun to Qingbufang, he found that the smoke had not dissipated here, as if a battle had just occurred, and the remains of the lost souls were spread on the ground in front of the pass.
After asking the monks guarding the gate, I found out that Qingbufang would encounter an attack of this level by the lost souls once every three or two days, which was really not unusual.
There is no fee to enter the workshop, you just need to check your identity.
As long as you are not a ghost cultivator, you can easily enter.
After crossing the gate building and passing through the shield of the fourth-level defense formation, a crowded, cramped, and depressing architectural picture appeared in front of Lu Zhong. The streets were as winding as dog teeth, and there were haphazardly built houses on both sides, which were different from the original ones. The streets and pavilions are mixed together, winding all the way to the top of the mountain in the distance.
When Lu Zhong saw Qingbufang for the first time, the word "slum" came to mind.
Before coming with him, there was nothing consistent with the prosperous fairyland in Middle-earth that I had guessed.
But this is normal, after all, it is a time of great chaos.
After the soul-losing disease subsides and the ghost cultivators are suppressed again, the monks here will be able to regain their old demeanor after some recuperation.
Perhaps he was walking in the wrong direction. He didn't see many monks on the road. All he saw along the way were ordinary people with no cultivation. The streets here were filled with sewage, domestic garbage, and human and animal excrement mixed together. Because no one had cleaned it for too long, it had spread. A rotten, foul smell.
There were many women standing under the eaves. When they heard the voice, they cast their eyes towards the person coming. When they saw that the person who came was a monk and a Taoist boy, they quickly lowered their heads and stood behind the door panel.
No one tries to solicit customers because they know they won't be needed even if they give them away for free.
After walking forward for a while, the situation changed.
But it's just a little cleaner.
On the narrow streets, passers-by were hurriedly walking one after another, most of them walking with their heads lowered, with sad expressions on their faces. There are many shops open on both sides, but most of them are empty. Only a few elixir shops, magic weapon shops, and rice and grain shops are doing a prosperous business, and the queues of monks holding coins to buy are all lined up outside the door.
Lu Zhong was traveling with a young child, which attracted some attention.
However, there is no one who dares to take advantage of the foundation-building monks.
After walking forward for a while and passing through a gate guarded by monks, the streets on both sides opened up and the environment was much better than before. Traces of the old prosperity can be seen everywhere here.
Find an inn to stay at.
Lu Zhong was ready to take care of something.
Immortality begins with casual cultivation
