The ghost king of the imperial mausoleum was named "Zhang Hexi" during his lifetime, but now he is named "Xue Zhi". This fact should be recorded.
And the fierce ghost named Zhou Tie now must have had another name during his lifetime.
It's just that beings with so many taboos, such as wandering ghosts, generally won't tell their "real names".
Because some monks who are proficient in ghosts and gods can calculate the person's birth date and horoscope just by using their "real name".
While Xi Zhong listened to Zhou Tie's careful story, the old man in the distance was finally helped to move forward slowly.
The girl supporting him next to him is naturally the one offering jade.
Xianyu's expression was a little anxious, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two evil ghosts who had put the master and apprentice in a desperate situation were still kneeling obediently in front of the young man.
After the old man saw that the young man in blue shirt had actually defeated the two evil ghosts, the shock on his expression was hard to conceal.
Xi Zhong didn't look proud at all, he just waved to the two of them and motioned for them to come over.
This is not because Xi Zhong is pretending, nor is he being pretentious, it's just because this is really not worth being proud of.
The main ghost general and the deputy ghost general were obviously not outstanding characters in the imperial mausoleum.
At the same time, the ghost king also sent out many ghost generals to "transform" human towns.
In other words, these two fierce ghosts in front of me are just minions.
What's so proud about defeating two minions?
If you really want to be proud, you must at least defeat that ambitious ghost king before you can be proud.
Moreover, the purpose of Xi Zhong coming out this time was not simply to defeat the Ghost King. The main purpose was actually to take back something that Sister Ren had ordered to take back.
That thing is a lotus lantern.
Sister Ren just said that it was of great benefit to her.
As for why Sister Ren knew that the Ghost King owned a lotus lantern, Xi Zhong didn't know.
But now that Sister Ren has spoken, Xi Zhong cannot slack off. At the same time, this trip is also a special training.
Xi Zhong looked at the old man walking forward slowly and sighed with regret in his heart.
The old man looked eager and wanted to come over quickly, but he was helpless because of the pain on his body and could only walk forward slowly.
When a monk's spiritual root is destroyed, especially if it is shattered beyond repair like this old man's, it can be said that there is almost no room for salvation.
Because except for some extremely precious treasures of heaven and earth that are rare in the world, there is almost no way to repair this old gentleman's spiritual roots.
There are countless magical elixirs in Xi Zhong's experience point store, and there are even elixirs.
However, the experience points required are extremely huge.
Judging from Xi Zhong's current experience level, it is impossible to redeem these magical elixirs that can defy the odds and save lives.
Of course, even if Xi Zhong could redeem it, he wouldn't.
As for the reason, I mentioned it before.
Therefore, in this life of this old gentleman, unless there is rain from heaven and good fortune comes to him, his path of spiritual practice will come to an end.
If nothing unexpected happens, the old gentleman may continue to fall like this. When he reaches the first level of Qi Refining Realm, the spiritual energy in his body will directly dissipate, and he will become a mortal.
After becoming a mortal, there will also be signs of frailty and illness.
The destruction of spiritual roots is actually equivalent to the destruction of the "spine" of ordinary humans.
A monk draws spiritual energy from the world. The transformation process must first enter the monk's natal acupoints, then pass through the monk's body meridians, flow from the meridians to the spiritual roots, and then transform the "spiritual energy" into "spiritual power"
", and then these spiritual powers flow through the meridians to the monk's Dantian, nourishing the monk's Dantian.
If a monk's spiritual root is destroyed, it is equivalent to the "media bridge" being destroyed, resulting in the spiritual energy being unable to enter the monk's body. Even if a monk forces his spiritual power to pass through, the spiritual energy cannot successfully reach the Dantian.
This has become a dead end.
The spiritual root is the upper part that can control the monk's natal acupoints, and the lower part can control the monk's Dantian. This is why the rank of the spiritual root is so important.
If you want to "bridge" your spiritual roots again, it will be difficult. You can only refer to the method above.
If the human spine is directly destroyed, there will definitely be no way to survive.
The old gentleman's ability to continue to live is entirely due to the foundation he laid in the Qi Refining Realm and the support he has now with his remaining spiritual energy.
So, this old gentleman is really at the end of his rope now, and his life expectancy may not be long.
But even so, this old gentleman still cared about the safety of the people in the entire small town.
This can be seen from the fact that the old gentleman stepped out of the bed despite his serious injuries.
Xi Zhong didn't urge him at all, but he changed from sitting cross-legged to standing.
The fierce ghost named "Zhou Tie" wanted to raise his head to speak, but Xi Zhong gently stretched out his hand and pressed down.
"Bang!"
Zhou Tie's skull was directly pressed to the ground by Xi Zhong's fist, making it unable to lift its head.
A small crater was made on the ground by the skull.
Zhou Tie's pupils were flashing red crazily, and it could be seen that he was extremely angry.
But now it is under the eaves of others and has to bow its head.
So there was no sound.
Xi Zhong didn't even look at it, he just wanted to respectfully salute the old gentleman who was walking slowly, and said with a smile: "The old gentleman is finally here."
After seeing Xi Zhong's smiling face, the old gentleman pointed at Xi Zhong with a look of shock on his face, and finally turned into a sigh, "Young man, you really hide your secrets."
To put it nicely, it means "hiding it deeply."
To put it harshly, it means "pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger".
If we use the words of Xi Zhong in his previous life, it is just "pretending to compare".
Xi Zhong blinked his eyes and said: "Why did the old gentleman say that? The boy has never hidden anything. How can he be 'hidden without revealing'?"
The old man said: "Are you really a first-level monk in the Foundation Establishment Realm?"
Xi Zhong raised his hand with a smile and swore: "It's absolutely true."
The girl next to him just stared warily at the fierce ghost who was pinned to the ground by Xi Zhong's fist and the ferocious deputy ghost general who was trembling and had four mouths all over his body.
When she heard Xi Zhong's words, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
If that guy was really in the foundation-building realm, she would just eat that little straw man!
Who are you lying to?
Have you ever seen a monk at the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm able to easily subdue two Foundation Establishment Realm ghosts without even using his spiritual power?
In the end, the old man did not bother Xi Zhong with this issue, because now he just wanted to rescue those people as soon as possible.
In the past two months, those innocent people have been controlled by this evil ghost, and their bodies have almost reached their limits.
After the people were controlled, it was impossible to eat and rest on time. No matter day or night, they were wandering in the streets and houses with their eyeball-less eyes open.
As a result, the bodies of the common people are extremely weak. Even if they can still move now, it is actually because of the forced control of the evil spirits.
This is just like the zombies in the zombie movies that Xi Zhong watched in his previous life.
They are not afraid of pain, they have no emotions, they don't care that their bodies will be destroyed, and they are driven by extremely clear goals.
The difference is that the zombies in Xi Zhong's previous life were driven by hunger, but now the people in this world of cultivating immortals are controlled by evil ghosts.
In other words, if the people's souls are not returned to their places as soon as possible, then when the people's bodies cannot support it, at that time, even if the people's souls are returned to their places, they will die directly with their bodies, or they will die directly.
If you fail to return to your original position, you will become a wandering ghost, or you will be dragged into the underworld for trial by the bull-headed horse face of the underworld.
The old man said: "Young man, I won't ask you about your true background. After all, when you go out, you should use the means to keep yourself under control and hide your own realm. This is indeed correct. You should not have the intention of harming others and guard against others.
The heart is indispensable."
"So, can you start listening to me now and rescue these people as soon as possible?"
Xi Zhong smiled and said: "Of course, I have been waiting for the old gentleman for so long, isn't it because I want the old gentleman to help the people come up with a perfect solution?"
The old man nodded without any nonsense. He turned to look at the Li Gui whose body was rotten with flesh and blood and exuded a thick Yin Qi. Only his skull was still intact. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Li Gui, I just want to ask you.
What's your 'real name'?"
Zhou Tie remained silent, his eyes looking toward the ground dancing with a crazy expression.
He was ready to fight to the death.
Xi Zhong was really not that careless. He came to Zhou Tie's side in an instant, and then stepped on Zhou Tie's head without any expression!
"Bang!"
Zhou Tie was immediately stepped on and sunk into the ground.
The skull began to have cracks.
However, it still didn't make any sound, and its aura instantly dropped, as if it had been fatally kicked by Xi Zhong.
At this moment, a thick fog began to spread around.
Xi Zhong turned around and saw that it was the deputy ghost general with four ferocious mouths emitting thick mist.
Xi Zhong's figure disappeared again, and the next moment he appeared next to the deputy ghost general who was constantly emitting smoke.
Xi Zhong directly punched the ghost general in the heart.
But Zhou Tie, whose aura was originally in a state of depression, took advantage of the moment when Xi Zhong left and jumped up from the ground, turning into a black smoke and melting into the smoke.
It didn't even think of taking the old man or the girl as a hostage.
Because it knew that although the old man and the girl were not as high as it, and the old man's realm was still low, the young man in green shirt was able to come to it and kill it with one punch at the moment it went to catch the person.
.
So it ran away decisively.
And it did not dare to run towards the Ghost King, but ran towards the extremely Yin place, because it knew that it would never be able to outrun the young man in green shirt, and only the five hundred Yin soldiers could save it!
