"I said Miss Qin, there is no need for you to pretend to be dead anymore, right?"
Jiang Li took back most of the iron chains, but in order to prevent the opponent's soul from escaping, he still left a shackle on the opponent's slender ankle.
In this case, the suppression effect of the Dragon Prison Lock should have become very low, and the opponent should not be able to re-possess him. It is not a problem to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.
Bah, bah, bah!
Jiang Li turned over the opponent's palm and pressed it directly with his index finger. Just like the effect of a soldering iron touching butter, wisps of white smoke suddenly emerged from the cold and pale palm, and the middle gradually became black and sunken.
Seeing that that beautiful palm was about to be burned through by Jiang Li, Qin Shuman, who had been pretending to be dead, suddenly opened his eyes, and immediately let out a shrill ghost cry into the sky.
The sharp howl instantly penetrated the entire Qitu Town, and even the distant mountains and forests were affected, triggering a series of wolf howls.
Jiang Li, who was so close, was even more shocked to the point where his eardrums hurt.
A head that could break rocks collapsed, and the soul-stirring howl stopped abruptly.
The owner of the ghost market, Qin Shuman, was lying in front of his home with a burnt forehead, staring blankly at the night sky. This body was not a living person, and there would be no signs of swelling and congestion at all, but the burnt fingerprints still made him feel sad.
Her delicate appearance was damaged.
Her howl was not because she was in unbearable pain, but because she was summoning her ghost soldiers to deploy again.
She still can't figure out why her three thousand ghost soldiers can't even see a shadow of a ghost until now.
"Calling ghosts? No need to scream. When you were beaten by that old man, I had already killed all your men."
Jiang Li squatted next to the woman and helped her answer her doubts in a very friendly manner.
"How is it possible? There are three thousand ghost soldiers in my Qilu Ghost City. You have been with me all the time. How can you possibly kill them!"
The Lord of the Ghost Market refused to believe it. After all, in her eyes, three thousand ghost soldiers were already a very powerful force. She had been standing here for twenty years with these ghost soldiers, how could she be silent?
It just disappeared without a breath.
"Why, you called me Young Master just now, am I no longer worthy?"
Jiang Li wanted to flick her on the forehead again, but saw the horrified expression on her face and had no choice but to give up.
"You have subordinates, can't I also have them? Let me teach you how to call someone."
He condensed a ball of Yin Qi from the palm of his hand, and it gathered more and more as if it was free of charge, and soon formed a dark ball in the palm of his hand.
boom!
Crush the yin balloon and burst it, and the pure yin-attributed spiritual energy spreads wantonly around.
The temperature dropped suddenly, and a thick layer of white frost formed on the surrounding ground.
However, this was only the beginning. As the Yin Qi fluctuations spread, the entire Qitu Town began to shake violently.
In the eyes of one person and one ghost, the rich and majestic Yin Qi was like a natural disaster, forming a huge tornado and surrounding the entire Qitu Town.
In the swirling storm, 300,000 ghosts loomed, shrinking and surrounding Jiang Li.
Although the quality of these 300,000 ghosts is relatively average, when they are gathered together, even the alchemy monks will feel a drum in their hearts when they see them.
The house and courtyard behind him turned into a dilapidated temple again, and the lights of the ghost market in the distance were extinguished and prosperous. Under the impact of the ghost tornado, the illusion that enveloped the entire Qidu Town easily collapsed, destroying the essence of the broken town.
Exposed.
Just before, Jiang Li threw the Yin Burial Coffin into a corner, and then released the 300,000 evil spirits inside.
Of course, he did not let the evil ghosts come out in full force. In the first three times of subduing the demons, he also captured many ghost prisoners, but the time was short and he had not yet completely tamed them. Naturally, he had to leave tens of thousands of evil ghosts behind to suppress the ghosts.
Three hundred thousand evil ghosts surrounded this ghost city and gradually encroached on it, gathering in circles and taking away all the ghosts that fell into the net.
Although the ghosts in the ghost city are cunning, even one of them cannot get away when surrounded and suppressed by an army of evil ghosts of this scale.
Although the quality of those ghost soldiers may be higher than that of Jiang Li's evil ghosts, their level is relatively limited, and it is impossible for them to make even the slightest splash with this hundred-fold difference in quantity.
It didn't take long at all, and the entire Qitu Ghost City was almost packed away by Jiang Li.
Looking at the ghost tornado that surrounded them, the owner of the ghost market had been complacent about the three thousand ghost soldiers he had accumulated over the years. She had never seen such a scene before. Shocked by the evil ghost storm like a natural disaster, her mind went blank.
Jiang Li made a casual move, and among the ghosts, a small coffin automatically flew towards him and he caught it and stuffed it into his arms.
Looking at Qin Shuman, who was standing next to him with a dull and horrified expression, he used his magic technique to create an emerald-green seed the size of a basketball in his palm, and raised it in front of his opponent.
"Miss Qin, didn't you say you wanted to repay me? Don't resist, now is the time for you to repay me. How about I promise you my life?"
At least half of the credit for the establishment of this ghost market is based on the deception of the owner of this ghost market.
The other half is also the result of the other party.
The streets and alleys of this ghost market are managed in an orderly manner, and a large number of standard Yin weapons and weapons were even found from the three thousand captured ghost soldiers.
This shows that there is actually a specialized military industry department in this ghost city. It is really the prototype of a comprehensively developed force.
If you give her another hundred years, she may be able to establish a ghost realm here.
Although there are many ghosts in Jiang Li's coffin, they are all low-level ghost servants and ghost soldiers. It is impossible to pick a general from among the short ones.
If this Lord of the Ghost Market, who can be regarded as an internal affairs talent, could be brought under his command, wouldn't it be possible to have another practical tool man?
"How about Miss Qin, as long as you are willing to eat this and accept my friendship, I will immediately unshackle you."
"At that time, we will still treat each other as gentlemen and ladies, and not only that. All the three hundred thousand ghost soldiers in the sky will become your subordinates for you to control!"
Jiang Li saw that the other party did not answer, so he was so tempting.
"Young Master, people and ghosts have different paths. It is not the behavior of a gentleman to rob a little girl like this."
"Although the little girl has a humble body, she will not be a slave to others."
Qin Shuman refused extremely firmly, and even when he talked about being a slave, a look of resentment flashed in his eyes.
She has been restrained and tortured for nearly a hundred years, and her whole soul is resisting the idea of becoming someone else's slave tool again.
Jiang Li was a little disappointed when he heard her answer.
"Are you still refusing? It's such a pity. If you cooperate, I really hope to let you join intact. But since you refuse, there is no other way."
Jiang Li's face turned cold, and he directly pushed the basketball-sized seed toward the opponent's head.
Elder Lin Fengyin's corpse exorcism lineage is good at puppeting corpses and is also good at exorcising ghosts.
This seed is a magic technique based on the same principle as the "Puppet Seed Technique" but more targeted at ghosts.
The special aura-enhanced version of the seed was pressed on the female ghost's forehead, and a basketball-sized ball of light forced its way into her head, which was less than half its size.
The female ghost was suddenly attacked, but she quickly reacted and struggled violently to resist.
The green ball of light that Jiang Li pressed halfway was suddenly stuck, and it actually felt like it was being squeezed out a little bit.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Li felt a little scared.
Fortunately, he didn't use the roots of the locust tree to pull the opponent into the sea of consciousness. This ghost that can entangle with the monks in the foundation-building stage is really powerful.
After all, the other party is a ghost that relies entirely on its soul to survive.
Even ghosts who can be easily destroyed outside the body can become powerful monsters in the sea of consciousness, let alone the master of the ghost market.
If he is pulled into the sea of consciousness, even if Jiang Li's mental attributes have increased a lot, and with the help of the locust tree formed by the Ghost Wood Art and the other two parallel consciousnesses, he is definitely no match for Qin Shuman.
However, at this time, I am a knife and you are a fish, and I concoct a ghost. Although it is a bit difficult, it still cannot make Jiang Li helpless.
Bah, bah, bah!
Jiang Li held down the light ball with one hand and reached out with the other hand to press it on the opponent's forehead.
Suddenly, the thick white smoke rose again, and the prison dragon lock also increased its strength in time, making the female ghost's attachment to the body begin to become unstable again.
Anyway, Jiang Li is pregnant with the Demon-Breaking Golden Skin, and he can't do things like life and death, so this body doesn't have much meaning in existence.
But, it’s still not enough!
Jiang Li gave an order, and hundreds of ghosts flying in the air rushed over in an instant.
Driven by Jiang Li, they tore at the female ghost's soul crazily, causing her ghost body to be torn off bit by bit. The pain was excruciating. Now she had no energy to fight against Jiang Li.
A few minutes later, the ghost body of the dignified Lord of the Ghost City became somewhat dim and transparent, and the green light ball the size of a basketball was completely squeezed in.
The seeds quickly took root and sprouted in the ghost's body. After the roots spread and grew to the entire ghost body, they faded and slowly disappeared.
After just a tug-of-war, Qin Shuman's ghost body was seriously damaged, but this was just right. She was put into the Yin Burial Coffin for cultivation. The more Yin Burial Spiritual Energy she absorbed, the more helpless she would be.
Resist Jiang Li.
Click!
Just when Jiang Li was about to throw the broken female ghost into the coffin, a soft cracking sound was heard from the ruined temple next to it that had been transformed into the Qin Mansion through blindfolding.
Jiang Li followed the sound and saw that the one making the sound in the leaky temple seemed to be a life-size clay statue of a god.
Since the extinction of immortals and Buddhas, many monsters, ghosts and snakes have appeared in the mortal world and even in the world of immortality.
Some of the poor ones, like the scale demon tribe that Jiang Li had destroyed before, took the spiritual root branches to worship on their own initiative, and the spread was limited to a few hundred ignorant scale demons.
And some are good at it, and their faith can spread to several mortal countries, and even find a market among some low-level monks.
When Jiang Li saw the clay statue in this shrine, he naturally regarded it as one of them.
Jiang Li, who had just captured the biggest boss in the local area, was naturally brave because of his skill, so he walked in with Qin Shuman, who had his soul covered with bruises.
"This statue... looks so familiar."
Half of the head of this clay statue has been shattered, and the crack just now should have come from here.
From the crack, it can be seen that the inside of the clay statue is still hollow, and there is only a thick outer shell to support it.
It’s hard to imagine how stingy someone must be to cut corners when making a clay statue.
"But this mason's craftsmanship is quite good. The luster can be seen on half of his face...wait a minute!"
The more Jiang Li looked at the clay statue, the more familiar it looked. Suddenly he remembered something, raised Qin Shuman in his hand, covered half of the other person's face and came up to compare, they were almost exactly the same!
He looked at the clay statue carefully and discovered that there was a winding crack in the middle of the clay statue, dividing the entire clay statue into two halves.
It's just that this crack is not new, but looks like it has been there for some years.
Jiang Li separated the clay statue, put Qin Shuman's body in, and then closed it again, making it a perfect fit!
He was no longer a fledgling who had just entered the world of immortality. Seeing the scene in front of him, he could not understand what was happening.
This female ghost Qin Shuman was invited to be the "God of Fortune"!
This so-called "invitation to the God of Fortune" is a vicious and secret technique used by people from other sects to mold living people into clay statues.
The shaping of this clay statue is also very particular and very vicious. The entire clay statue must be formed before the subject dies, without leaving any gaps.
The purpose of this is to seal the last breath of the subject within the body.
Because when ordinary mortals pass away, their souls float away from their bodies with their last breath.
If this breath cannot be exhaled, it is like being stuck in the throat. Coupled with the suppression of incense ash, talisman ashes and vicious secret techniques, the soul of the deceased will be unable to leave the body, and can only suffer in the clay statue day and night, unable to be reincarnated.
The side sects will also set up Feng Shui shrines and operate them together, and then instruct local residents to burn incense day and night. This allows the so-called "God of Fortune" to bear the entire town's misfortunes and disasters alone.
In contrast, this Qitu Town will have better "luck" than other places, which is reflected in the fact that this town will become prosperous and prosperous in decades.
Until...the clay statue cracked for some reason.
It seems that the prosperity of Qitu Town and its sudden decline later were not as simple as Jiang Li imagined at the beginning.
This clay statue also explained Jiang Li's other two questions.
The first point is why Qin Shuman's soul and body look the same, because it is not a painted skin, but her own body.
Possessing her own body, the fit is naturally not comparable to that of others. In addition, because the clay statue is covered with yin energy and nourished, the body has not decayed for decades, so she looks like a dead person and a living person at the same time.
In addition, this is why a small town that has only been in decline for twenty years would suddenly have such a ghost appear. Because this woman had been dead for a long time before the town was destroyed.
It is not difficult to understand that he has accumulated resentment in his chest for decades, and once he got out of trouble, he went on a killing spree, and was nourished by the yin energy of the underworld. It is not difficult to understand that he has reached this level.
Jiang Li curled his lips and did such a thing. Now he felt that the people in Qitu Town deserved to die.
In addition, fortunately, this spell is just a pheasant spell with a weak effect, so it is of some use to mortals. It is not worth worrying about for monks, otherwise mortals will be in trouble again.
For monks, the so-called effect of inviting blessing gods is actually infinitely close to zero, so there are almost no sects or casual cultivators who specifically do this kind of thing.
Pay homage to the Patriarch, isn’t he good?
Putting away the statues and the other party, Jiang Li ordered three hundred thousand ghosts to dig three feet into the town and took away everything of value before leaving Qilu, which had been completely turned into ruins.
town.
This clay statue and the female ghost have been together for decades, and have already developed a connection similar to a natal magic weapon. Just now, Qin Shuman was planted by Jiang Li, and the clay statue was immediately damaged.
Putting them together may help you recover faster.
Looking at the map, Jiang Li flew to the last place where ghosts gathered.
There was nothing worthy of Jiang Li's concern here, so he released 300,000 ghosts and captured all the ghosts there.
During this trip, Jiang Li defeated demons five times in total and captured another 10,000 ghost soldiers and 20,000 imps, which was enough to increase the number of ghosts in the burial coffin.
