A series of candlelight symbols shot out, and in an instant the forest was as bright as day.
What was originally hidden in the forest is now revealed in front of the light.
In the forest covered with dead leaves, a white figure stood abruptly. Its body seemed to be made of smoke, and its limbs were elongated to an exaggerated degree, but it was swaying there in the absence of wind.
The white figure is approaching the caravan, its movements seem to be dancing and rolling.
Constantly twisting and twisting...the pace of progress is like the last struggle of a drowning person.
As it moves, pieces of dead leaves float into the air and begin to hover.
"Huhuhu..."
After a while, a tornado formed.
"It's the soul of mourning!" someone screamed.
Perhaps he was so frightened that even his tone of voice changed.
Lu Zhong had heard about the origin of mourning souls. It was said that they were transformed by the powerful souls of the dead. Those fallen leaves flying up were actually the embodiment of spiritual consciousness interfering with external objects.
To be able to form a mourning soul, one must at least have a monk soul with strength in the foundation building stage.
Its appearance usually represents the death of a foundation-building monk.
Seeing the mournful soul getting closer and closer, Steward Wang's expression became more solemn, and he made a gesture and used the magic ring in his hand. Immediately, a milky white spiritual light lit up, and the magic ring flew out of his hand and shot forward.
At the same time as he took action, other monks in the caravan also took action.
Lu Zhong was no exception. After chanting the incantation for a while, a clear yang fire rain technique shot out.
For a moment, the forest clearing was illuminated by spiritual light.
Shanghun seemed unaware of this, and was still twisting and turning, approaching everyone unswervingly. All the incoming attacks were blocked by the fallen leaves around it, and none of them could fall on it.
"Retreat, you must not be approached within ten feet by the soul, otherwise the soul will be sucked away!" Manager Wang reminded everyone, and slowly retreated. At the same time, he did not forget to activate the magic weapon and continue to attack the white figure.
At this time, Lu Zhong also used the Qingshuang Sword.
The sword secrets in his hand kept being pinched, and a green sword shadow flew up and down around the soul, trying to find a weak point to avoid the attack of the dead leaves.
Unfortunately, its protection is blind.
At this moment, a voice came from the side.
"Master Lu Fu, the mourning soul is protected by the foundation-building aura, which we and other Qi Refining monks cannot break." However, Manager Wang appeared beside Lu Zhong at some unknown time and reminded him.
Looking at the mourning soul getting closer and closer to the caravan, his eyes suddenly twitched, and he looked at Lu Zhong eagerly: "If you want to repel this kind of evil thing, the only way now is to rely on the exorcism talisman. I don't know.
How many more do you have? Wang is willing to pay double the market price to buy all the evil-exorcism charms!"
Lu Zhong wanted to say that it didn't have to be like this, but when he thought about the spiritual stone he could earn, he choked back his words.
There is no other way, he still can't be generous.
Immediately, he ran his hand over the storage bag and found dozens of exorcism charms.
Not only that, he touched his chest again and took out a dozen exorcism charms from his arms.
The two dozen exorcism talismans are all made of talisman skin, so they are all high-quality exorcism talismans with a market price of two spirit stones. If the promise of Manager Wang is followed, the price of these two dozen exorcism talismans will be a full ninety-six spirit stones.
Seeing that Lu Zhong only took out two dozen exorcism talismans, Steward Wang frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with the small number. However, when he saw clearly that they were all high-quality exorcism talismans, he relaxed his brows and showed a deep joy.
next moment.
Raindrop-like exorcism talismans were shot out, including not only Lu Zhong's twenty-four exquisite exorcism talismans, but also a similar number of ordinary exorcism talismans, which converged and fell towards the mourning soul.
Suddenly there was light in the forest.
Dazzling golden light erupted, and a searing heat came over him.
Countless golden illusory lights erupted with the mourning soul as the center, and wailing sounds could be heard inside, accompanied by a large amount of black energy pouring out crazily, and then conflicting with the Yang energy causing an explosion.
As if it knew how powerful the caravan was, it let out a sharp roar and receded like the tide.
The crisis was over and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
…
In the evening, the caravan arrived early at the camping site next to the forest.
Different from the liveliness in the morning, the atmosphere in the camp became dull at this moment.
Lu Zhong had just settled down and was about to light a fire to cook and eat. At this time, he heard footsteps approaching, but it was Manager Wang of the caravan who came over. He was also holding a small bag in his hand.
"It's all thanks to Master Lu just now, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!" Manager Wang said, handing out the bag in his hand, and said sincerely: "This is the money to buy the talisman, plus a little bit of care, please accept it."
"Manager Wang, you're so polite!" Although Lu Zhong said polite words, he accepted the bag with a natural expression, weighed it briefly and put it in the storage bag.
He can know the number of spiritual stones by just weighing the bag without opening it.
Not surprisingly, it should be around one hundred and ten.
After the two exchanged polite greetings, Manager Wang excused himself and left.
At this time, the food on Lu Zhong's stove was also cooked, which was pork, green Heling rice.
Monster meat is rich in monster energy, which is not only beneficial to the recovery of physical strength and relief of fatigue, but also plays a role in strengthening the body unknowingly.
After a meal, the whole person suddenly becomes energetic.
In order not to waste the spiritual energy he had eaten, Lu Zhong began to meditate and practice day after day.
The benefits of switching to the Four Spiritual Skills are still slowly becoming apparent.
After a period of time, spiritual power with purifying properties finally showed its signs.
He could clearly feel that his breath was becoming more and more stable, no longer as vain as before, and his whole temperament had also become more restrained.
After the spiritual power becomes pure, the effects of the spells cast also increase simultaneously.
Just like now, when Lu Zhong performs the Zhan Qi Technique, the vision in his eyes will become clearer, so he can clearly see the flow of spiritual energy at a greater distance.
When applied to the Qingyang Fire Rain Technique, it probably increases the power of the fireball projectiles.
In short, spiritual power with special characteristics has many benefits.
…
Half asleep and half awake, another night passed.
After counting the number of people, the whole team set off again.
The road in the morning was surprisingly easy to walk. It was a winding road on the ridge. The cool water vapor was constantly blowing from one side of the ridge to the other, which was just right to eliminate the scorching heat brought by the scorching sun.
There are also many berries growing on the roadside, which are sour and sweet. You can eat three or two of them and you won't feel thirsty anymore.
Unfortunately, after noon, the team reached a high mountain swamp.
It is no longer possible to pull the cart through the swamp with the strength of the bull alone, and manpower is needed to assist the pulling.
After walking through this swamp, everyone was covered in mud.
Lu Zhong started selling cleaning charms at the right time. Even if the price doubled, he still sold a batch.
In this way, another small amount of income comes in.
"Mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. When we get to Yanlingshanfang City, there are many places to spend money. If there are opportunities to make money on the road, it is natural to make more." Lu Zhong counted the talisman coins and thought to himself.
