Ying imdiately used one of the ghost-seeking talismans upon hearing Zhais words. Her qi spread out and locked onto the ghostly specter floating behind Bing with her arms wrapped around his neck. Ying and the female ghost glared at each other, both sohow being able to read the others thoughts. Seeing her so closely wrapped to Bing was all it took for Ying to prepare herself for a life-or-death fight.
Lin Jiajia scoffed as she saw the foolish girl. Trying to claim her source of power right under her eyes? Jiajia might be dead but that didnt an she was stupid! She didnt care how that girl felt about this fatty but she had another thing coming if she thought she could get rid of her so easily. The Walking Devil ranked spirit pushed Bing to the ground as she drastically lengthened her claws to teach this stupid girl a lesson.
You cant! Bing cried out!
Ying already ignited herself into a flaming human as she dashed towards the ghost woman. Bings words fell on deaf ears as a womans jealousy isnt so easily quelled. The flas grew hotter and higher by the second while Jiajias sharp and long claws that could compare to swords in length have already reached their full length. Living girl and ghost girl seed intent on eradicating the other without exchanging a single word.
Jie was overall rather confused entirely. She couldnt see the ghost that Ying and Zhai could see but she could feel a very cold and frightening aura in front of Ying. Out of everyone, only she and Zhai heard Bings cry. The normal reaction to finding out that a ghost has been sticking by yourself would be to freak out or ask for help so that soone can get rid of it. But why did Bing cry out, you cant? Was he talking to the ghost or Ying?
Either choice brings further questions. If he was talking to the ghost, then that would an that Bing was aware of the ghost following him but hasnt captured it for the sake of the second test. Which ant the ghost was threatening him or there was so sort of benefit to having this ghost stick around him. But if he was talking to Ying, then that would be even more suspicious. Why would a person willingly want a spirit to follow them around? Knowledge of ghosts and the like isnt very well spread, so not many people are educated on if spirits can provide benefits to those living. The only benefit Jie could see to ghosts was providing her points in passing this portion of the test.
Shang knew there were more uses to ghosts than the average cultivator but did that an this portly fellow knew them as well? Ghosts were filled with yin qi, normal qi, sotis an elental qi due to the martial arts they practiced in their life, and malice. These creatures were useful for refining certain talismans, being used as materials for blacksmiths, and strengthening cultivators that relied on spirits to do evil. In the two days spent on this part of the test, Shang has already made several talismans from the essence of spirits when he couldve just captured them in his amulet.
Bing sprung back up as he was tossed away.
Swift Devil! Bing rushed in between the two girls before they could harm each other.
His great bone shield blocking Yings heavy greatsword while the shield he gained from the Empress blocked Lins claw strike. A heavy aura emitted from his once again round figure as he tried to stop the two from continuing their fight.
Please let explain. He kindly asked.
Ying spat on the ground in annoyance. The spit evaporated from her flas before it could touch the ground. She didnt even get to cut this ghost man-stealing vixen once! Bings really lucky that she liked him or else she wouldve cut him down with the ghost woman.
As Ying snuffed out her flas, Bing began to explain his history with Lin Jiajia. Jiajia stayed mostly silent as Bing was telling nothing but the truth so far. The ground beneath Yings feet cracked as she controlled herself from losing it all to kill this evil ghost woman that almost killed her Bing. Hearing his explanation of their relationship made her want to kill the woman even more!
So, youre nothing but a blood-sucking leech. Ying smirked.
Id watch your words more carefully commoner... Jiajias eyes glowed blood red.
Commoner? I dont know how long youve been dead but your eyes must have died long before then if you think I'm a commoner. Ying flicked her orange hair back in pride.
A rough man-ish gangster like you can be considered a noble? It seems like it was a good thing I died. Nobility has fallen a great distance from how it used to be. Jiajia turned her face away with a smug grin.
What part of looks like a man!? Ying held up her chest with pride as it slowly bounced. If anything, youre more of a man you freakish giant. She bit right back.
Giant?! Ill have you know, I only beca this tall after I died! I was even shorter than him when I was still alive! Jiajia pointed at Bing.
Heh. So, you were a midget and now a disgusting giant. Doesnt seem like sothing to be proud of to . Ying continued to flaunt her appearance.
Ill tear you apart you annoying cow! Jiajia tried rushing past Bing.
But how could he allow her to do sothing like after hearing their entire conversation? Bing was already preparing to use his Yin of Destruction and Yang of Creation martial arts when they began insulting each other. In a third hand grown out of his stomach, a perfectly shaped qi sphere split between black on one side and white on the other floated above his palm. Once it was completely ford, an imnse amount of qi spiked from Bings figure that caught everyones attention.
Jiajia. You cant hurt my friends. I know that wasnt a part of our deal but you do realize how crazy it would be for to let you try and hurt my friends right?
Youre threatening ?! She fiercely glared at him.
Im not threatening you. Please dont make out to be the bad guy. I just want everyone to peacefully reconcile and not try and kill each other. He calmly told her.
Ying. I know Jiajia might seem like shes taking advantage of because of the deal we made but without her protection, I would be helpless against the ghosts during this portion of the test. I wouldnt be able to see ghosts nor stop them from trying to taking over my body without her. Bing explained to Ying.
I dont like her. After the test is over, cant we just get Jing to get rid of her? Ying bluntly asked.
Jing knows how to deal with ghosts? Zhai Shang thought to himself.
Thats an option... Bing muttered.
If you dare consider getting rid of again, I'll kill us both. Jiajia told Bing.
It wasnt an option after all. Bing helplessly smiled. Looks like he was stuck with this beautiful leech for the rest of his life.
How pathetic! Dragging soone else's life down with you just because youre too weak to live on your own! Ying insulted her.
In this world, you have to do whatever it takes to get ahead or stay alive. Jiajia smiled.
Shaless giant freak! Ying put down her sword in frustration.
Bing let out a breath of relief as he put away his second shield and threw the Yin of Destruction & Yang of Creation: Infinite Sphere Ultimate Cataclysm towards the cave entrance. A massive explosion of whiteness overca the group as their clothes fiercely blew in the wind from the shockwave. Jiajia went to hide inside Bings void world to avoid being affected by the technique. The rest of the group couldnt hear anything over the blowing winds and explosion but the barrier placed in front of the cave cracked from the impact of Bings technique. Soon after, it shattered and the cave was now open for any to step inside.
Although this barrier only needed four cultivators of differing elental qi, brute force was another thod to open it. If one was able to use all four elents then they too would be able to open the barrier easily. But finding a cultivator capable of using multiple elents was not common. Only those with special bloodlines, suicidal tendencies, woefully ignorant, or insane would think about using multiple qi elents.
It looks like you managed to break the barrier, Bing. Zhai pointed out.
I did? Bing looked over to see the now open cave.
You didnt know? Jie questioned.
I didnt expect it to actually work. I just wanted to get rid of the ball of energy. Bing answered.
Lucky us. Lets go see if theres a plate hiding inside here. Ying took charge of the group and stepped forward.
Plate? Bing asked.
Theres a third plate missing and we want to get our hands on it before anyone else does. Jie answered him.
A plate to what exactly? Shang didnt understand.
Really good treasure! Probably an immortals tomb or sothing filled with many treasures. Drool leaked from Yings face as she thought of all the treasure she could obtain inside, especially the Mystic Fla.
Probably also filled with deadly traps and sealed ghosts. Bing didnt want to be negative but he was a realist.
Well be fine. Ying waved his worries off with so unexplainable courage.
You dont know that. Bing sighed.
Weve been through worse. Ying laughed.
Have we!? Bing honestly couldnt rember anymore.
Do you normally run into trouble...? Jie asked.
Heavens Angels isnt without its daily, weekly, or monthly share of troubles. Bing answered.
If theres trouble, well be there! Ying confidently claid.
Zhai Shang just stayed silent as he listened to their conversation with a passive look on his face. Learning about his girlfriends group would definitely be useful. Perhaps he could even help them and make himself look better in Jings eyes. What girlfriend wouldnt like her boyfriend helping her out?
