Chapter 227: The Origin of Heavenly Ghosts, Xuanlei Sword Qi
Just hearing a roar from Cheng Zaiyou, the candle dragons wrapped around Tiangui suddenly opened their eyes!
For a moment, all the smoke and clouds dispersed, and the already illusory sea water around them instantly began to evaporate. The rising huge mist was quickly blown away by an inexplicable force, forming a tornado-like appearance.
Even the scorching sun in the Dharma Appearance Heaven and Earth becomes more ethereal and vast because of the existence of the candle dragon. As for its surroundings, it reflects a rich halo!!
Naturally, the ghost was in great pain under such an attack and kept wailing.
The blazing flames bound it, burning its body crazily, destroying the terrifying ghost energy and almost disintegrating it, turning it into black springs, sloping downward crazily.
However, before the Yinquan even hit the ground, it was burned into a large amount of thick fog, floating in the air. It looked so miserable.
But just when the two of them thought that the dust was about to settle, a force that destroyed the world and destroyed the heaven and earth burst out from the body of the ghost.
The power surged crazily, like a tiger descending from the mountain, like a dragon entering the sea. Even the flames that could burn the sky and boil the sea were temporarily suppressed!
After a few breaths, there was a tendency to fight against each other!!
"No! It's the remnant soul of a ghost!!"
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoying couldn't help but exclaimed, his eyes were shocked like fire borrowed from the wind, and quickly burned.
There are many legends about the origin of ghosts.
However, although there are different opinions, the only thing that can be determined is that this ghost is indeed the first ghost in the world.
In contrast, the most credible theory is that the ghost was transformed into Kuafu after his death.
According to the "Book of Mountains and Seas·Overseas Northern Classic":
Kuafu and the sun chase away and enter the sun.
If you are thirsty and want to drink, drink from the river Wei. If the river Wei is not enough, drink from Daze in the north.
Before he arrived, Tao died of thirst.
He abandoned his staff and became Deng Lin.
The general idea is that Kuafu chased the sun and felt thirsty when he was close to the sun, so he went to drink water from the Yellow River and Weihe River.
But the water in these two rivers was not enough to quench his thirst, so Kuafu tried to drink the water in Daze, but he died on the way.
The cane thrown away by Kuafu after his death turned into a forest of Deng.
(Deng Lin: The woods in ancient myths and legends.)
From ancient times to the present, there are different legends about Kuafu, but the origin of the Heavenly Ghost is somewhat unknown.
Although people in the cultivating world can access these, the gods and ghosts are far away, so there is no real answer to the specific reasons why.
The only evidence that can be found is the theory that the ghost was transformed into Kuafu after his death.
According to myths and legends, after Kuafu died, his body turned into forests, mountains, and rivers, but there was no mention of where his soul went.
Everyone only knew that since Pangu's death, the first ghost in the world appeared.
It is huge in size. From a distance, it looks as majestic as nine mountains. It is violent in nature and full of resentment. It has destroyed all life in the world and once caused a major catastrophe.
After that, he was completely suppressed by Empress Houtu, and his whereabouts are unknown since then.
Houtu God, also known as the Mother of the Earth, is respectfully known as Houtu Empress among the people.
It controls the fertility of yin and yang, the beauty of all things and the beauty of the earth's mountains and rivers.
On the surface, suppressing heavenly ghosts is to eliminate evil in the world and restore peace to all things.
But if we study its identity... it would be a bit intriguing...
Is the ghost strong?
Of course strong!
Being able to defeat the strongest ancient beings and defeat them step by step, and being able to destroy the world into pieces, he is certainly no ordinary person.
That was the ancient times, a time when all races stood side by side and gods controlled all the heavens and worlds.
Among the characters who could leave a great reputation during that period, which one was not extremely powerful?
But in comparison, Tiangui is not on the same level as Houtu Empress.
That is Empress Houtu, even in the presence of gods
Among them is also the existence at the pinnacle, the fourth god among the four emperors, Chengtian follows the example of the earth emperor!
If such a person takes action, how can the Heavenly Ghost make waves?
It's just easy to destroy.
As for why Empress Houtu only suppressed the heavenly ghosts... because this Kuafu is the grandson of the Nether God and Houtu...
Therefore, the legend that the ghost transformed into a ghost after Kuafu's death becomes more credible.
But no matter what its origin is, this ghost is a great evil from ancient times.
Although the heavenly ghosts summoned by this ghost Taoist are not as good as a single finger of the ancient heavenly ghosts, they were created based on them.
Therefore, after the death of the false ghost, the remnant soul of the ghost in his body is completely exposed to the world.
I just don’t know where these ghost cultivators obtained such items.
The remnant soul of the ghost has lost consciousness.
But just by relying on the self-emanating aura, Cheng Zaiyou and others were already walking on ice, as if they would be destroyed by this ghostly aura in the next second.
Seeing this situation, Lin Zhaoying gritted his teeth, and then quickly asked Cheng Zaiyou:
"how?!
Are you sure you can solve it?!!"
Hearing this, Cheng Zaiyou frowned and thought for a while.
"Can!!
But it will take some time!! After all, the remnant souls of ghosts today are like dead things, and their strength is only about one-tenth of what it was in ancient times!!”
Several people's expressions were solemn as never before.
Today's remnant ghosts can barely even reach one-tenth of their peak, but despite this, they still feel very fearful!
And the most important thing is that they must not let the remnants of the ghosts escape outside, otherwise it will definitely cause a huge disaster!
Nowadays, there is still the heaven and earth of the spinning turtle that is imprisoning the opponent, so we must take advantage of the spinning turtle's bloodline to deal with the ghosts!
"Captain Cheng, let me help you!!"
Just as the two were thinking about countermeasures, Ying Chumei's voice sounded behind them.
Cheng Zaiyou did not rebuke her, but asked her seriously:
"Girl, now is not the time to joke.
Are you sure you have the means to deal with the devil?
You have to think clearly, if you are not careful, you will die!!"
"clear!
Of course I have a way to deal with it!
Although I can’t kill it, I’m sure I can delay it for a while!!”
"Okay! Be careful!!"
After saying that, Ying Chumei turned around and punched Lin Zhaoying.
"Commander Lin, can you send me to the Heavenly Ghost?"
"Yes, but not too close.
The ghost energy of the Heavenly Ghost is too powerful. If you get too close, it will easily cause the space to collapse, and then there will be no possibility of survival!"
Hearing this, she nodded slightly.
"That's enough! Let the spin turtle take me the rest of the way!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she put her hand on Lin Zhaoying's shoulder.
Following Lin Zhaoying's thought, the scene in front of him quickly twisted and turned. When he opened his eyes again, the two of them were within a hundred meters in front of Tiangui!!
"Hurry over there! I'll clear the way for you!!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhaoying suddenly punched forward.
I saw this punch, and a series of ripples instantly rippled in the void in front of me. The ghost energy that was still raging fled in all directions, just like a driven animal!
Seeing this, Ying Chumei called out to the turtle:
"Turtle, help me!!"
At the critical moment, this spinning turtle really couldn't let go of its chain. It roared and a huge water dragon rose up in response, and then its body quickly condensed with ice.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into an ice dragon that stretched for miles!!
The ice dragon let out an ear-splitting dragon roar, then carried Ying Chumei on top of the dragon's head and took her flying towards the remnant soul of the ghost!
How fast is the ice dragon?
In a gap of one or two seconds, he was already in front of the ghost.
Perhaps because of the innate intention to kill, the moment the ghost saw Ying Chumei, he waved his big hand, and the ghost energy that covered the sky formed the shape of a dark cloud and suppressed the delicate body.
After feeling the powerful aura, the ice dragon arched its back and threw Ying Chumei into the air. At the same time, it raised its head and rushed directly in front of the girl.
Immediately afterwards, its body shape quickly condensed and changed, and after a while, it formed a shield composed of ice crystals!
It seems that in order to allow Ying Chumei to store more spiritual power, after releasing the coldness, the spinning turtle gathered into blooming ice lotuses at its feet, so that she could draw on it even in the air.
place.
Just like that, Ying Chumei held the shield in her left hand and held the silver hairpin tightly in her right hand, fighting against the ghostly aura in the sky!
You only have one chance, if you don't succeed, you will be successful!
Ying Chumei felt furious. Just when she was about to knock out the silver hairpin, the ice crystal shield quickly decomposed and turned into tiny ice crystals one after another, which stuck to her body to form a set of ice crystals.
Armor!
Long hair flying, silver armor!
"Come die!!"
With an angry shout, the silver hairpin was shot out instantly!
Sudden!
A black thunder compressed to the extreme flashed through. The thunder was as thin as a hair, but it contained great power.
Looking around, it actually runs thousands of miles straight!!!
The means left behind by my great-great-grandmother Song Xiangzhu.
From this we can see how strong this ancestor whom we have never met is!
Being able to condense such a powerful thunder of destruction into the thickness of a hair, this thunder is already so powerful that it can cut the space into several pieces!
As for the remnant soul of the Heavenly Ghost, it was cut in half by this wisp of Xuan Lei sword energy!!
Seeing this situation, Lin Zhaoying couldn't help but feel happy.
I thought it would be good if Ying Chumei could delay it for a while, but she didn't expect that this blow would directly cause her to be seriously injured!!
The power of the silver hairpin has been completely consumed, and the completely out-of-control ghost energy caused waves of storms, with the sky ghost as the center, scattering in all directions, so much so that even the ice lotus under Ying Chumei was shaken into powder!
The vitality of the heavenly ghost is extremely tenacious. Even if it is cut in half, it will not die.
Now that Ying Chumei has lost her leverage point, her figure is naturally falling downwards, so that day the ghost remnant soul also seizes the opportunity and slaps it down with a palm!!
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoying braved the space storm, ducked to Ying Chumei's side, grabbed his shoulders and moved back!!
The sky ghost did not pursue him because its attention had already been attracted by Cheng Zaiyou.
Even without consciousness, it still maintains the instinct of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
Cheng Zaiyou was seen sitting there motionless at this time, and the flames around him continued to condense and gather, almost forming a substance.
But what really frightens the Heavenly Ghost is the red shadow behind him wearing an imperial robe...
One of the Five Elements Gods, the world respects him as the Red Emperor - Fire God Zhurong!!
