The night was very quiet. Other than the rustling of the fallen leaves, there was no other sound.
At a certain moment, the rapid cries of crows rang out in the forest. After a few cries, the sound stopped abruptly, as if someone had strangled them.
As the crows 'voices faded away, the forest seemed to become more and more silent.
At some point, even the temperature had become cold. It was not winter yet, but it gave people a bone-piercing chill.
Under the moonlight, there seemed to be a strange figure crawling in one direction. In the end, it completely surrounded Ning Caichen's house.
At this moment, in the bedroom, Ning Caichen suddenly opened his eyes. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
"I knew that this matter wouldn't end so easily. The appearance of that water ghost really wasn't a coincidence.”
"Hmph, it's better to come at the right time than to come early. If I came a few days earlier, I would definitely turn around and leave. Now, I can use these dirty things to test my skills!”
As he murmured, Ning Caichen raised a finger and pointed it out of the window. The magic power in his body became active.
"Pardon-Summon Thunder!"
With that one word, the void outside the window suddenly became extremely oppressive.
In the next moment, with a cracking sound, pure white lightning struck down from the sky.
Lightning tore through the void and struck the ground in an instant.
With a boom, the earth rumbled, and a water ghost was struck to death on the spot.
The rest of the Water Ghosts raised their heads and looked around vigilantly. They felt a sense of danger as if they were facing their natural enemy.
In the room, Ning Caichen frowned slightly. He was not disappointed that the power of the thunder technique was not enough, but that it was too powerful, even too much.
Ghosts were souls. If he used ghosts to brew wine, he would definitely be able to brew spirit wine that could increase his soul power. If his soul was directly split apart like this, how could he use it to brew wine?
"Forget it, I won't use any spells.”
Ning Caichen took out a few talismans from his body. The next moment, the door suddenly opened, and Ning Caichen's figure directly broke through the air.
The water ghosts, who had been on high alert, sensed Ning Caichen's aura. Their eyes suddenly flashed with a dark green light, and they pounced on Ning Caichen in unison.
The purple light tore through the darkness like a gale sweeping across the earth at an unbelievable speed.
When the purple light dissipated, the water ghosts were frozen in midair like statues. Each of them had a yellow talisman stuck to their foreheads.
Only one of them survived and turned around to run without saying anything.
Ning Caichen took out the Wine God's Gourd and poured his mana into it. Suddenly, a strong suction force came out from it and easily sucked the few Water Ghosts into it.
After doing all this, he put away the Wine God Gourd and turned into a purple stream of light, chasing after the water ghost.
Obviously, he had let them go on purpose.
………
In front of the pitch-black lake, the old woman sat cross-legged on a rock with the Ghost Head Staff on her legs. She seemed to be cultivating. Her breathing was accompanied by some strange melody. Every time she exhaled and inhaled, she would absorb some black air around her.
As she continued to cultivate, the stone under her seemed to be affected and began to turn black bit by bit.
At a certain moment, the rock beneath him finally reached its limit. With a crack, a crack appeared. This crack was only the beginning. Not long after, the entire rock fell apart and turned into a pile of waste.
A strange thing happened. The old woman did not fall down even though she was no longer supported by the stone. Instead, she floated in the air strangely.
All of a sudden, the old woman opened her eyes, and a cold light flashed in her eyes."What happened? Why did so many of my little cuties suddenly die?”
"Don't tell me that Ning Family's silly kid has some experts by his side?”
"However, even if there are experts, he will still have to die!”
" Wait..." The old woman suddenly raised her head and looked in a certain direction."A cute little fellow has escaped back. There's someone chasing after it!”
"Tsk tsk, you actually chased after me directly. Do you really think you have nothing to fear just because you killed a few little ghosts that I raised?”
The old woman's strange laughter continued, giving people goosebumps in the night.
When the voice disappeared, the old woman's figure also disappeared without a trace.
Ning Caichen, who was speeding forward, suddenly slowed down. Then, he sped up and rushed above the water ghost in an instant. He stomped heavily on it.
With a loud bang, the water ghost and the ground beneath it were stomped, and the ground caved in deeply.
The water ghost was a soul body, so physical attacks were not very effective against it. Its body that had been crushed gradually reformed. However, before it could completely reform, a fist suddenly fell. The fist seemed to be covered with something, and it carried a faint light as it punched its body. It directly exploded the water ghost on the spot and turned it into ashes.
After doing all this, Ning Caichen took away the evil-vanquishing charm that had lost its effect and threw it away. Then, he looked at the dark night with an indifferent expression.
"Since you're already here, why don't you show yourself?”
"Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that the usually weak scholar would actually hide such a profound martial cultivation and a strange talisman.”
"It seems that everyone has underestimated you.”
A gloomy, old female voice came from all directions. Ning Caichen's senses were unable to tell which direction the voice came from.
Ning Caichen's expression was slightly solemn.""This aura doesn't seem human. It's filled with coldness and evil. A malicious ghost? Or something even more evil?"
