The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

Chapter 348: Metaphysics in the Entertainment Circle 63

After that, they said something to Chen Fangfei and followed the guidance of the soul-seeking incense. Of course, they also sold a few amulets and house-guarding ornaments before leaving.

Originally, Chen Fangfei trusted Zuo Jiayin more. After all, she was the one who explained the situation to her from beginning to end, and she also took out things out of thin air several times. Xiao Yun and the other two didn't say much, so they thought Zuo Jiayin was the leader and thought she should be more reliable.

As a result, the captain just now directly communicated with Xiao Yun, and his tone was full of respect. Even Zuo Jiayin seemed to be led by Xiao Yun. Only then did she realize that she had a preconceived idea.

Of course, this misunderstanding was caused by Xiao Yun on purpose.

But the Chen couple was different. After all, they were old hands and could tell at a glance that Xiao Yun, who was standing in the back without saying anything, was the leader, because when Zuo Jiayin talked to their daughter, she would always subconsciously look at Xiao Yun, which meant that she was also following her lead.

Until they left, they didn't say that Zuo Jiayin was not from the Supernatural Department, and there was really no need to explain this specifically.

Zuo Jiayin was even more certain that they wanted to recruit her to work in the Supernatural Department.

Actually, it is not impossible. Although she is from Liuxianmen, it does not mean she cannot work outside. She is still working in the entertainment industry, and the same goes for working in the Supernatural Department.

It’s just that her cultivation level is too low, and she relies entirely on the protective magic tools given to her by her elders, otherwise she wouldn’t dare to walk around so casually outside.

But if she were to help the Supernatural Department, her mediocre skills would not be enough, so she was so hesitant.

Xiao Yun didn't know that the heroine had been thinking so much. She didn't take action before just because she didn't want to snatch the heroine's opportunity.

After leaving Chen's house, they drove directly and followed the guidance of the soul-seeking incense. Zuo Jiayin said that the depth of the smoke after the incense was lit could show the distance of the soul.

The smoke was thin and shallow, and it was obvious that it was far away. It drifted quite fast, and they could drive along with it to guide the way. This was something that only existed in the realm of cultivation.

Xiao Yun really doesn't have this kind of incense, but she has seen it being sold, but she didn't buy it. She can find it by counting with her fingers, so it's of no use at all.

After the car had been driving for twenty minutes, Xiao Yun felt that the route was becoming more and more familiar. It was not until Liu Ying opened her mouth and said that this was Xishan Forest Park that Xiao Yun remembered that this was the place where she filmed the commercials.

A few minutes later, they finally arrived. They parked the car in the parking lot outside the park and walked in on foot, still following the guidance of the cigarette.

I have to say that this incense really lasts a long time. They drove on the road for nearly half an hour, and the incense was only half burned. You should know that a stick of incense usually lasts only about ten minutes.

Following Xiang's guidance, they had no choice but to keep walking until they reached the foot of the mountain where Xiao Yun had taken photos last time.

The mountain is not high and people often come here for outings. It is not hidden either. It is impossible for the other party to have practiced here before, otherwise he would have been discovered long ago.

They continued to follow the instructions and walked up the mountain, this time speeding up because the smoke from the incense was now vertical and more than twice as thick as before, which meant it was nearby.

It took more than 20 minutes to walk here, and this was because Zuo Jiayin asked her assistant to wait in the car at the foot of the mountain and did not come along. Otherwise, if an ordinary person had followed, the speed would have been even slower. At least the three of them were monks.

After more than twenty minutes, they climbed to the halfway point of the mountain. Looking at the Taoist temple in front of them, the three of them looked at each other in surprise.

"No, isn't that soul in this Taoist temple? How can it survive in here?"

Zuo Jiayin said with a look of doubt, but this incense was given by my grandfather, so there shouldn't be any problem.

Although there is no guarantee that every Taoist temple is righteous, generally speaking, evil spirits would not dare to hide in them.

Besides, aren’t the evil cultivators hiding in dark corners? They are all residual souls, how could they dare to run into the Taoist temple openly?

Xiao Yun was also very surprised. In fact, she had used her spiritual sense to see this mountain, including this Taoist temple, when she was at the foot of the mountain. She really didn't expect it to be here.

Just as they followed the cigarette smoke and thought they would enter the temple, the smoke turned a corner and went to the side of the Taoist temple.

Is this a case of playing with the dark under the lamp?

I walked around the Taoist temple for half a circle and unexpectedly found myself right behind it. Finally, I stopped at a small door. Is this... the back door of the Taoist temple?

The smoke floated straight upwards, which meant it had really reached its destination.

But there is just a small door here. Do I have to go inside, or is it just nearby?

Xiao Yun used his spiritual sense to scan the area and found nothing outside. There was also a hall behind the back door, but it was the back hall, not the main hall. The main hall was in the front.

Xiao Yun had seen it before. There was only an ordinary man dressed as an old Taoist priest dozing off behind the drawing table. There were no other Taoist priests.

Logically speaking, this Taoist temple is not small, and there are four side halls on the left and right sides in front. It doesn't look like a place with only one fake Taoist priest.

Zuo Jiayin and Liu Ying also felt something was wrong and took out their magic weapons together.

Xiao Yun took a look at each other and found that the two people's magic weapons were similar, one holding a soul-calming bell and the other holding a Bagua mirror, both of which were used to deal with ghosts.

Xiao Yun sighed. These two things are okay for dealing with those below the Jindan stage, but they are not effective against those who are more powerful.

According to her observation, the remnant soul was at least above the Nascent Soul stage before death, and these things had no effect on it at all.

After thinking for a while, he took out two things, one of which was a bracelet-like golden bell and handed it to Liu Ying, "You can keep that one, it has no effect on the souls of cultivators. This one is for you, it is the Soul-Calming Bell, it is effective for the souls below the Nascent Soul stage.

But you must remember the gestures and spells I will teach you later, so that you can accurately target objects and avoid hurting innocent people. After all, this also has an effect on living souls."

He demonstrated it to Liu Ying. The gestures were actually very simple, but the key was the formula. Liu Ying was very smart and learned it after studying it carefully.

Liu Ying put away her two bells, then carefully put the bracelet on her wrist, and touched it again and again with her other hand.

Zuo Jiayin was very surprised to hear that the bracelet was so powerful. To be able to deal with a powerful person in the Nascent Soul stage, it must be at least a magic weapon level. An ordinary magic weapon cannot do it.

Seeing that she was looking at him with envy, Xiao Yun handed her the wooden sword in his other hand. The Bagua mirror in her hand was also good, but it was only effective against ghost soldiers, which is equivalent to the Jindan stage.

"This is a lightning-struck peach wood sword. The peach wood is ten thousand years old. When you have a high level of cultivation, you can use it to fight against ghost generals."

This was made from a twenty-meter-long material that Xiao Lin found in Yue Xingyi's storage bag. As a gold-absorbing tree, it can be seen at a glance that it is the true form of the thousand-year-old peach wood spirit.

When the true spirit was struck to death by the thunder during the transformation tribulation, it was most suitable to use it to refine weapons to deal with ghost cultivators and demon cultivators.

However, this has little effect on cultivators. To deal with ghost cultivators and demon cultivators, they have to rely on the bonus power of warding off evil spirits and lightning strikes.

"Really give it to me?"

Zuo Jiayin took it with some disbelief, and rubbed it gently in his hand. The sword was pitch black, but it had a faint golden glow, which looked extraordinary.

Xiao Yun nodded, "It's fate that we meet. This is a gift for meeting you. Maybe I'll need your help in the future."

"Fellow Daoist Xiao has given me such a precious treasure. If you have any instructions in the future, I will not refuse as long as I can do it..."

Xiao Yun was very satisfied with the other party's attitude. The Daughter of Fortune could be considered the daughter of Heaven. So, by that count, she could be considered his granddaughter. There was nothing wrong with giving her a gift when they met.

Speaking of Xiao Tiandao's adopted son, he no longer stays in her space. He said he was tired of playing and wanted to go out for a walk. Seeing that she didn't have time, he followed Jiaduobao.

The guy named Jiaduobao is a person who likes to wander around, and the two of them hit it off immediately. He even called me yesterday and said he wanted to go to the amusement park.

Although little Tiandao has just been born, His appearance can change, but His behavior will be very childish, so He always uses the appearance of a child. When He becomes an adult, He will look like a mentally retarded person.

The topic has gone off topic again. Let's get back to the present. The three of them jumped in from the back wall with their magic weapons. After landing, Zuo Jiayin held the peach wood sword in one hand and the instrument in the other, and began to detect the specific location of the residual soul.

"Be careful. There is an isolation formation in the back hall. It should be very complicated inside. I will be in the front and you follow behind. If anything goes wrong, leave immediately. Saving your life is the most important thing."

The two nodded and told her not to rush in and to get out of danger in time.

There is no back door in the rear hall. To enter, you have to walk from the side aisle to the front.

Surprisingly, the front door was open, and the statue of the ancestor god inside could be clearly seen.

The three of them walked in slowly, but they didn't expect that the scene inside would change suddenly the next moment!

The hall had turned into a huge cage! It was divided into many compartments of different sizes, and all kinds of things were locked up inside.

There were ghosts, demon cultivators, spirit beasts, demon beasts, and even monsters with unique looks. They were all roaring happily in the compartment. The sound was terrifying. Zuo Jiayin and Liu Ying both came to Xiao Yun at the same time, asking her with their eyes what to do next?

"Haha... I was just worried that I couldn't gather enough people for the 77th birthday, and now there's one ready-made one delivered to my door. Sure enough, the heavens are helping me to return to the immortal path..."

As the deep voice sounded, a tall figure gradually emerged in the middle of the room. When the figure became clearer, it could be seen that it was an old man with a long beard, about 1.9 meters tall. His movements and the way he spoke made him look like an ancient cultivator.

But the clothes he was wearing were not Taoist robes nor the wide-sleeved long robes commonly worn by ancient monks, but a suit of armor.

Although he was not wearing a helmet, the shoulder guards and shiny round guards showed that he was wearing Ming Guang armor. The knee pads on the Ming Guang armor on this man were extended, so it should be from the Tang Dynasty.

Well, it's an old ghost.

The old ghost has very strong soul power, but it is a bit mixed. It is obvious at first glance that it is not cultivated by himself, but increased by absorbing the energy of others.

Of course, this old ghost’s own soul power is not weak, otherwise he would not be able to suppress other souls and slowly absorb them within his body.

As for the number of seventy-seven that the other party mentioned, Zuo Jiayin and Liu Ying didn't understand, but Xiao Yun really knew it because she had encountered it before.

It was not the trial world she traveled through, but the third life of her own eight reincarnations. She was reborn as a turtle and was hibernating in the underground palace of a dilapidated temple. By chance one day, three evil cultivators came and set up this formation in the dilapidated temple.

I heard from them that it is called the Seven Evils Soul Sacrifice Formation, and as the name suggests, it is used to sacrifice souls.

There are good and evil ghost cultivators. Good ghost cultivators rely on Yin Qi and absorbing moonlight to slowly cultivate, and the speed is much slower. This kind of evil cultivator, which can also be said to be evil ghost cultivator, relies on devouring the souls of others to increase their cultivation.

There are requirements for the sacrificial souls. Not only must they be living souls, but they must also have special abilities. It is best if they belong to cultivators. If not, spirit beasts, demon beasts, monsters, or those of great good or great evil people will also be fine. A total of 49 souls need to be gathered, and then a formation can be set up on the night of a lunar eclipse to refine them for your own use.

This formation is very powerful, and can enable the Ghost King to defeat the Ghost Emperor in one fell swoop without suffering from thunder tribulation.

Xiao Yun counted on his fingers and thought, hey! Today is the night of the lunar eclipse. No wonder the old man laughed so hard just now.

If she wasn't there, someone else would have just delivered food to the door and provided assistance.

But since she's here, this thing will definitely not work.

When the old ghost wanted to lock the three of them in the only three remaining empty cages and wait for the lunar eclipse at night, Xiao Yun simply waved his hand and set up two barriers, a small one to protect Zuo Jiayin and the other two, and a large one to surround the old ghost.

The old ghost was startled by this sudden change, and looked at her in doubt, but said calmly: "I didn't expect you to hide your cultivation level. However, once you enter my ghost domain, even if you have a high level of cultivation, you will be under my control, and you will never return!"

Xiao Yun sneered and listened to his bluffing with a mocking look on his face.

That’s right, it was just bluffing. The one who could set up a barrier in his ghost domain must be someone with higher cultivation level than him.

But no matter how he looked at it, this person's highest level of cultivation was only the great perfection of foundation building, and his bone age was only twenty years old. Even if a powerful being took over another person's body and cultivated again, it would take time.

Unless the other party has a treasure that can conceal and modify bone age, but since it has already been done, there is no need to hide it anymore. I don’t know what the other party’s hobby is.

Xiao Yun doesn't have any hobbies and doesn't use his own strength.

Even if her spirit was powerful, she couldn't bring it into full play in this body. She borrowed the power of space and covered it up slightly with the Sky-covering Mirror, just to pretend.

The Heaven-Covering Mirror is an existence that can conceal the aura and even hide the rules of heaven, let alone a small ghost king.

She set up the barrier because she was afraid that the old ghost would run away when she saw she couldn't defeat him. She didn't want to look for ghosts all over the world. She was just thinking of getting Yaoyao out and changing her body to deal with the ghost, but then she stopped. This ghost king was only at the Spirit Transformation Stage. It would be too much of a bully for an immortal like her to take action. It would be better for her to let Yaoyao come out for some practice.

I sent a telepathic message to Yaoyao about the situation outside, but my son didn't want to go. He said the opponent was too weak and not even worthy of him practicing...

This kid has become more and more arrogant because of my pampering. Then I thought about Xiao Yueyue and A Yuan. No, their cultivation is too low and they are no match for this old ghost.
