Chapter 198: Evil Spirit!
Zhou Heng’s dark palm print landed on the thing that crawled out of Hong Jiaren’s corpse.
An imnsely terrifying force surged, his innate Pure Yang inner Qi exploding forth, simultaneously embodying the power of holding all things within Zhou Heng’s “Three Lifetis All Creation Inner View,” crushing down on this entity.
Bang!
Only to hear a loud crash, the vague silhouette that was about to erge from the pitch-black orb was almost devoid of any resistance under Zhou Heng’s move “Heaven and Earth Capsize,” instantly shattered to pieces.
But he did not stop there.
Following that move, Zhou Heng ford a Taoist formula with his hand, and suddenly, wind and fire arose, the Qi of the five organs and five elents gathered, turning into a cluster of golden lightning, flickering on and off, interweaving yin and yang, refining the five elents.
His left hand ford a seal, his right hand extended toward the heavens, and instantly condensed a seed of thunder, while his whole body was draped in golden lightning, resembling the descent of the Thunder God.
Boom!
The sound of thunder roared like the wrath of heaven, golden lightning erupted from Zhou Heng’s palm, transforming into a sky-piercing and earth-penetrating thunder sword, destroying all evil with unstoppable force.
“Five Thunder Righteous thod!”
The blindingly bright golden lightning struck the thing that had crawled out of Hong Jiaren’s corpse, which was already in pieces, was nearly completely annihilated under the thunder imbued with the principle of the five elents and yin and yang.
Under the lightning of the Five Thunder Righteous thod, the destroyed parts of the “thing” instantly turned into wisps of black smoke, and a strong stench filled the air.
This ti Zhou Heng stopped his actions, but still held a Taoist formula in his hand, with the Cross Mysterious Door Sword floating by his side, his gaze fixated on the remnants of the “thing.”
The remaining “thing,” unattacked, naturally began to gather and quickly rged back together into a pitch-black creature over half a human’s height.
However, it was called a creature only because its main body was slender.
In fact, this “creature” had just a pair of arms and two legs, with a head topped with facial features like a human’s, appearing sowhat alien.
“Such a powerful palm technique, such powerful thunder, this should not be within the capabilities of a cultivator of your level,” it actually articulated human speech, logic intact, seemingly possessing considerable intelligence.
“What are you, an evil creature?” Zhou Heng’s eyebrows furrowed, a strong aura of an evil creature emanated from this “thing,” yet there seed to be differences.
“Evil creature?” It laughed, neither confirming nor denying, “According to your terms here, I am indeed an evil creature. Young man, you may also call Li You. Would you be willing to beco my disciple?”
“Disciple?” Zhou Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly, he said in a deep voice, “You are a deity? And why did you crawl out of Hong Jiaren’s body?”
The reason he had not imdiately exterminated this bizarre being
was to understand exactly what was going on. Could it be that those who accidentally obtained the heritage of evil thods were rely materials to cultivate these kinds of things?
If so, then who was behind this?
“No.” Li You shook his head gently, smiling, “A deity is but a spirit, how could that term capture my greatness? You needn’t be hasty in rejecting , just rember the na ‘Li You.’
“If you encounter an insurmountable danger, sincerely pray to this na three tis, and I will help you overco all difficulties, annihilate all enemies, and at that ti, you will understand my mighty power.”
Just then, a prompt resounded in Zhou Heng’s mind.
“The evil spirit ‘Li You’ is attempting to impart the evil thod ‘Divine Spirit Descent Technique'[Heavenly Third Rank] to you. If you execute this technique as instructed, you will be possessed by the evil spirit, losing your self.”
Such a formidable evil thod!
To be possessed by just praying to the na thrice sincerely??
But what exactly is an evil spirit?
And how is it different from evil creatures?
Zhou Heng was beset with questions upon questions, and he dared not continue conversing with this evil spirit, unsure of what other bizarre thods it might possess.
Therefore, with a thought, the Mysterious Door Sword floating beside him imdiately flew up into the sky, while he released the Taoist formula he held!
“Nine Heavenly Mysterious Execution, transform into thunder!
“Brilliance Heavenly Power, invoke with my sword!”
In an instant, the color of the wind and clouds changed, the high clouds suddenly ford a vortex, shaking violently, as if the sky itself was spinning.
Amidst these surging clouds, countless thunders danced and interwove, similar to wild golden snakes. In an instant, the thunder converged on the Mysterious Door Sword.
Boom!
As if divine thunder descended from the ninth heaven, the lightning, enveloped with unparalleled power to vanquish evil, pierced through the void from above, seemingly ignoring distance, and struck Li You instantly.
“`
The evil spirit, however, was not flustered or frightened in the least. It even chuckled and waved its hand at Zhou Heng, saying, “Indeed, a decisive young man. We shall et again.”
Boom!
An ear-splitting blast erupted; the evil spirit Li You disintegrated into ash, and the Cross Mysterious Door Sword exploded in mid-air.
The application of Divine Sword Thunder Control required a high grade of weaponry, and even though Zhou Heng had only reached the third level of proficiency, the power of this Taoist Formula surpassed the limit that an upper-grade sharp weapon could withstand.
“It seems it’s ti to find a handy treasure weapon,” Zhou Heng thought to himself. Although he had just stepped into the Seventh Rank not long ago, in terms of strength, he had few foes beneath the Secret Sixth Rank.
“Congratulations! For defeating the evenly matched enemy evil spirit ‘Li You’, Fortune Bag [Silver] 1.”
The reward notification sounded.
Added to the two Copper Fortune Bags provided by Wei Yang and Hong Jiaren, along with those gained from vanquishing evil sects over the past ten or so days, he had now accumulated three Silver Fortune Bags and ten Copper Fortune Bags.
“Need to find a chance to open them,” contemplated Zhou Heng.
At that mont, the family who had sought his help earlier ca out from their yard, knelt down, and expressed their gratitude.
Soon, other households in Qingquan Town, having learned of the complete downfall of the True dicine Sect, ca out of their closely shut hos and offered their thanks to Zhou Heng.
Many people wanted to offer their wealth, and so even wished to have their daughters accompany Zhou Heng to serve him.
But Zhou Heng paid no attention to these offers and simply led his jujube-red horse away.
This left every household in Qingquan Town even more grateful.
Everyone etched the na Zhou Heng into their hearts.
It even evolved into a custom of carving his na onto jade pendants to ward off illness and disaster.
…
After leaving Qingquan Town,
Zhou Heng did not continue searching for another Evil Sect or malefactors practicing evil ways; instead, he rode his jujube-red horse to the nearest entrance of the Purple Tenuity Palace.
He needed to inquire about the matter of the evil spirit.
This type of evil spirit was clearly different from ordinary evil creatures, especially regarding what Li You had said before being killed.
et again?
It was dead, turned to dust; how could they et again?
Could it be that such a being could be resurrected?
Besides that, Zhou Heng needed to find the angle of the constellation, as the third task had still not been assigned.
Surely, it hadn’t gone to Xi Liang.
Following the familiar starry path, Zhou Heng listened to the overlapping voices of the Ziwei treasure decree again as he arrived in the vast world where the Purple Tenuity Palace was located.
No sooner had he stepped into this world than he saw a figure riding the clouds toward him.
This was a woman, dressed in a luxurious white fur outfit, not very tall but with a slender waist and a particularly prominent chest.
Even just riding the clouds, she moved with the grace and elegance of a lithe lotus.
Her mask bore the image of a white rabbit.
Apparently, she was “Room Constellation,” also known as “Room Sun Rabbit.”
“I have seen the Honorable Star Lord,” Room Sun Rabbit floated forward, accompanied by a faint fragrance, and after paying respects to Zhou Heng, she was about to say sothing when she suddenly exclaid, “Star Lord, you have encountered an evil spirit?!”
“That’s right,” Zhou Heng first nodded, then frowned and said, “How do you know? The evil spirit has been turned to ash; could it have left a mark on ?”
“This is no simple mark,” Room Sun Rabbit gently shook her head. She seed rather anxious and directly grabbed Zhou Heng’s hand, lifting him onto the clouds with her, “Pardon the impertinence, Star Lord.”
In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the Purple Tenuity Palace, coming face to face with The Supre and Celestial Man.
“Evil Spirit Mark?!”
These two Celestials exclaid in unison, losing their customary composure.
