Chapter 186 The Soul Restriction of the Spirit Ghost Taoist
Although Linggui Daoren was a ghost cultivator, he could not withstand such a powerful soul-devouring technique. The next moment, his sea of consciousness was damaged, and he immediately fainted. It was clear that Xia Yuhui had held back.
In an instant, Qingfeng and Mingyue broke free from Xia Yuhui's hands and flew to the side of the unconscious and helpless Linggui Daoren. The two ghosts directly and without hesitation burrowed into Linggui Daoren's body.
The next moment, the Spirit Ghost Taoist seemed to come alive, stopping his descent and floating in the air.
He then slowly approached Xia Yuhui and took out his storage bag from his pocket, handing it to Xia Yuhui.
As for the two Hundred Ghost Banners in his hand, he did not give them to Xia Yuhui. These two Hundred Ghost Banners were much more powerful than the one Qingfeng had before, and there were thousands of evil ghosts inside the banners. For the spirit ghosts, they were even more powerful than the Spirit Ghost Taoist.
Clearly, the Spirit Ghost Taoist knew that these evil spirits were useless against Xia Yuhui, so he didn't release them.
Xia Yuhui tacitly agreed to this, as Qingfeng Mingyue's strength would only benefit him.
Xia Yuhui snatched the storage bag, and without even glancing at it, stuffed it into his sleeve as if hiding a treasure.
Just then, Yang Kongtai and Xia Yuhua walked in from outside the formation. "Fifth Brother, aren't we going to kill this person?" Xia Yuhua asked, looking at Xia Yuhui with suspicion.
“Kill him, of course we have to kill him, but now is not the time. Once he has spilled everything from his mind, I will gather all the forces in Jinling County and execute him in public.”
"Hmm, great idea!" Xia Yuhua's eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded with a smile.
This plan will not only make the Xia family famous in Jinling County, but also be an excellent way to demonstrate their strength.
"Brother, take Yang Taikong to clean up this place. Remember, you absolutely must not damage that second-tier spiritual vein. From now on, this place will be the territory of my Xia family."
The two men accepted the order and immediately went down to clean up the battlefield, while the others continued to hold the Small Five Elements Formation to prevent any other survivors from escaping.
After the two left, Xia Yuhui quickly descended from the sky with Linggui Daoren, then ordered Qingfeng Mingyue to search Linggui Daoren's soul directly, while he himself focused all his efforts on breaking open the storage bag on Linggui Daoren's body.
Two hours passed, and the storage bag was finally successfully broken open. However, Xia Yuhui's face instantly turned gloomy, as if shrouded in a dark cloud, because the most precious thing, the cultivation technique practiced by the Spirit Ghost Taoist, was not inside.
The cultivation techniques that allow demonic cultivators to directly advance to the Foundation Establishment stage are extremely rare, which is why there are so few demonic Foundation Establishment cultivators.
If the Xia family obtains this cultivation technique, they will have another path to take. Therefore, this cultivation technique is one of the main purposes of Xia Yuhui's visit.
At this moment, not only were the cultivation techniques gone from Linggui Daoren's storage bag, but even the secret method for refining spirit ghosts had vanished.
Although he couldn't find the cultivation technique in the storage bag, Xia Yuhui remained calm and composed, as if he wouldn't flinch even if Mount Tai collapsed before him. As long as he used the Soul Searching Technique, everything about that Fellow Daoist Linggui would be exposed.
In a short while, Qingfeng finished casting the spell. Its face turned as bitter as a gourd. With a bitter expression, it said to Xia Yuhui, "Master, this person is quite capable. He has set up a soul restriction in his sea of consciousness. Those important pieces of information are shrouded in a thick fog and cannot be seen at all. If we want to know everything, it will probably take several years."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhui's brows furrowed tightly, like dough being kneaded. Finally, he said helplessly, "Are there any other contingency plans left behind by the Spirit Ghost Taoist here?"
"Your Majesty, I am unaware of this. However, the part of Linggui Daoist's memory that was not restricted does not contain such a thing." Qingfeng was filled with shame, as if he had committed a grave mistake.
"Alright, this is not your fault. Go and search this place carefully to see if the Spirit Ghost Taoist has left any backup plans."
"Qingfeng obeys!" With that, it flew away swiftly into the distance like an arrow released from a bow.
It felt extremely fortunate that Xia Yuhui hadn't punished it this time; otherwise, it would have suffered another bolt of crimson lightning.
But Xia Yuhui was still unwilling to give up and rushed towards a cave without stopping.
Before long, he arrived at a dilapidated cave. Although the place was in ruins, the surrounding remains still hinted at its former glory. This cave was the former residence of the Spirit Ghost Taoist.
Because of Xia Yuhui's thunderous attack, the cave, which was originally covered with many restrictions, was exposed to everyone as if its mysterious veil had been peeled off.
Xia Yuhui walked in without hesitation. At first, there were many fallen rocks on the road, but as he went deeper, the dilapidated scene receded like the tide, replaced by a ghostly atmosphere that was gloomy and terrifying.
Soon, Xia Yuhui saw Xia Yuhua ahead. As he got closer, he finally understood why Xia Yuhua had stopped.
At this moment, in front of the two was a bottomless valley, with a stone slab five feet long sunken in it. Inside the stone slab, there seemed to be a pool of dark mist flowing, mysterious and eerie.
With Xia Yuhui's knowledge, he could only sense that these mists contained a few souls.
"This must be the place where the Spirit Ghost Taoist refines spirit ghosts, and these are probably some of the materials used in it," Xia Yuhua murmured thoughtfully.
Xia Yuhui nodded in agreement. At this moment, he spread his divine sense out like ripples to explore the surrounding environment, but found nothing else except some messy items such as futons and long teacups.
Xia Yuhui walked forward helplessly, staring at the mist in front of him. However, apart from some souls, the things inside were all unfamiliar to him.
In response, Xia Yuhui could only shake his head and sigh helplessly. As a teenager, he had read through the books in the Xia family's library many times. The Xia family's library was directly copied from the Guiyun Sect. Logically speaking, he should know most of the things that appeared in the ancient country. However, at this moment, he was completely baffled by these things.
Just as he was troubled by this, three Foundation Establishment cultivators suddenly appeared within his spiritual sense range.
"Quick! Someone's coming." Xia Yuhui whispered to Xia Yuhua, and then sped off like an arrow.
At this moment, outside the Lesser Five Elements Formation, three Foundation Establishment cultivators dressed in identical attire suddenly appeared. They stared at the scene before them, seemingly lost in endless contemplation.
Because Yang Taigong was relatively close to the location, Yang Taikong appeared in front of the three of them first.
The three looked at the cultivator who had just established his foundation, and a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed in their eyes. However, when they sensed a powerful aura surging out from within the formation, their expressions changed drastically, and their ill intentions instantly receded like a tide.
