Chapter 155 Heading to Rongcheng
Chapter 155 Heading to Rongcheng
There were gusts of cold wind and terrifying sinister laughter coming from afar.
The horses in front of the Taoist temple were startled and suddenly lost control and ran forward.
No matter how hard the groom pulled, it was useless.
Finally, she and the groom disappeared from the man's sight.
The man's expression changed drastically and he hid behind Meng Bai.
"There's a ghost, Taoist priest!"
Meng Bai said calmly: "Don't panic, sir. Go back to your room first. I will deal with this monster."
The man nodded.
"Then I'll trouble you, Taoist Priest."
Then he immediately ran into the room.
Meng Bai used his magic power on the roof to prevent the cold wind from entering the house and affecting the newborn baby.
"Damn Taoist priest, hand over the child."
A black gas rushed into the Taoist temple and transformed into a fox ghost, staring at Meng Bai viciously.
Meng Bai sneered: "How dare a mere dead fox act so presumptuously in my Zhiyun Temple."
Meng Bai used his magic power to turn his finger into a sword and slashed out with one blow.
Haoran Shanhai Sword Qi was extremely powerful in restraining ghosts. The ghost fox screamed, "Damn Taoist priest, the King of Ten Thousand Ghosts will not let you go."
"The King of Ten Thousand Ghosts?"
Meng Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It seems that this ghost fox has a rather important background."
For the safety of the family in the Taoist temple, Meng Bai set up a simple Nine Swords Formation inside the temple.
Meng Bai sighed slightly: "The Qi Refining Method is really powerful."
"If it were in the world of immortal cultivation, with my spiritual cultivation, it would be impossible for me to set up this simple Nine Absolute Sword Formation in one go."
Although the upper limit of Qi Refiners is not as high as those in the immortal cultivation world, Qi Refiners have a long-lasting aura and pure magic power, which cannot be compared with the immortal cultivation techniques in the non-cultivation world.
Now, Meng Bai's magic power of refining the spirit and returning to the void is almost comparable to that of a Yuandan cultivator.
This allowed Meng Bai to use many extremely energy-consuming techniques while in the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void.
At this moment, Meng Bai's strength is only slightly weaker than in the world of immortal cultivation.
Of course, without the help of the Mountain and Sea Spirit Sword, we would still be far behind if we really started fighting.
Meng Bai shouted softly and the formation disappeared.
"So it is done."
......
At this moment, in the side room of the Taoist temple,
The man stood in front of the woman with a nervous look on his face.
When the door opened, the man's expression became extremely nervous.
Seeing that the person coming was Meng Bai, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"How are the ghosts in the Taoist's outer sect?"
Meng Bai said calmly: "It's just a ghost fox. I have dealt with it. You can rest assured."
The man's anxious heart was finally at ease.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself to the Taoist priest yet. It's at the famous cliff below."
Meng Bai nodded slightly.
"Mrs. Fang has just given birth to a baby boy, so it's not appropriate for her to travel. If Mr. Fang doesn't mind, you can stay at Zhiyun Monastery for the time being."
Fang Mingya said happily after hearing this: "Thank you, Taoist Priest."
night,
Fang Mingya found Meng Bai and asked, "I wonder if you would be willing to accept me as your disciple."
Fang Mingya knew that since Meng Bai could defeat ghosts, he must be a real Taoist priest with real abilities.
"You want me to take your child as my apprentice?"
"That's what I mean."
Meng Bai shook his head and said, "I have no intention of accepting a disciple."
Upon hearing this, Fang Mingya showed a hint of disappointment.
"But since your child was born in Zhiyun Temple, then he is destined to be with Zhiyun Temple."
Then Meng Bai took out a Taoist scripture and gave it to Fang Mingya.
"This is the method of cultivation for Qigong practitioners. I think your child has a strong aptitude. You can let him practice this method after he becomes intelligent."
Fang Mingya was overjoyed after receiving it.
"Thank you, Taoist Master."
"By the way, does your child have a name?"
"We've experienced a lot today, and I haven't given it a name yet. Mingya would like to ask the Taoist priest to give it a name."
Meng Bai hesitated for a moment and said, "Since you were born in Zhiyun Temple, how about calling Fang Zhi?"
"Fang Zhi, what a good name! Thank you, Taoist Priest, for naming my child!"
Meng Bai shook his head: "It's getting late, Mr. Fang, go and have some rest."
Midnight,
Three evil spirits were lingering at the entrance of Zhiyun Temple.
A fierce ghost said in a cold voice: "The fox ghost's aura disappeared here."
"The ghost fortune teller said that the man of destiny is no longer in Rongcheng, and the lonely ghost is following the direction pointed out by the ghost fortune teller. Do you think that the man of destiny may be in this Taoist temple?" said another evil ghost.
"It's possible! Come with me and take a look."
Three evil ghosts transformed into ghost energy and rushed into Zhiyun Temple.
The moment the three ghosts entered Zhiyun Temple, the simplified version of the Nine Absolute Sword Formation was triggered.
Several sword energies attacked from all directions, each carrying a different sword intent.
The three ghosts' expressions changed.
"Oh no, there's an ambush, there's a master here!"
"Run!"
However, even the simplified version of the Nine Absolute Sword Formation cannot be broken by just three evil spirits.
Once you enter the Nine Absolute Sword Formation, you are doomed to never return.
In just four breaths, the three evil ghosts died in the Nine Absolute Sword Formation.
Meng Bai, who was practicing, slowly walked out of the room and waved his hand lightly, and the Nine Sword Formation disappeared again.
"Sure enough, there are still monsters coveting this child."
"Rongcheng?"
Meng Bai heard clearly the conversation between the three evil spirits outside the Taoist temple just now.
Perhaps the haunted city of Chengdu was caused by the newly born Fang Zhi.
"Forget it, I will do a good deed and go to Rongcheng tomorrow."
The next day,
Meng Bai came to the small courtyard of the Taoist temple.
Fang Mingya happened to be in this small courtyard.
"Master, good morning."
Meng Bai nodded.
"Mr. Fang, I want to go to Rongcheng. If Madam Fang has not recovered yet, you can continue to stay here."
There is a Nine Sword Formation inside the Taoist temple, which can protect Fang Mingya's family's safety even if monsters come to visit.
Fang Mingya's expression changed slightly after hearing this.
"Master, you don't know that the ghosts lurking in Rongcheng are extraordinary. Even the demon hunters sent by the imperial court died in Rongcheng."
Meng Bai said after hearing this: "It's okay. I know what I am doing."
"Mr. Fang, there is still some food in the temple. You can make a fire and cook for yourself. It is best not to leave the temple during this period of time."
After saying this, Meng Bai summoned out the peach wood sword and flew away.
......
Rongcheng.
It was already high in the sky, but there was no one on the street.
The entire Chengdu city has become a deserted city at this moment.
The King of Ten Thousand Ghosts sat with his eyes closed in the City Lord's Mansion.
The body of the Lord of Rongcheng was still lying on the ground.
A little ghost flew in from outside the City Lord's Mansion.
"Report to the Ghost King, there is no news of the fox ghost and the three evil ghosts that went north yesterday."
The King of Ten Thousand Ghosts opened his bloodshot eyes and grinned, "What the Ghost Calculator said is correct. The Son of Destiny is indeed heading north."
"Someone send General Mingui to the north and bring back the child of destiny."
"Once I sacrifice the Son of Destiny with the blood of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Formation, I will be invincible in the world!"
"Hahaha!"
......
Meng Bai flew south on his sword.
It is estimated that it will take about half an incense stick of time to reach Chengdu.
At this moment, a huge three-eyed crow blocked Meng Bai's way.
"Human Qi Refiner!"
"Interesting, there are still human Qi cultivators who dare to come to Rongcheng at this moment."
Meng Bai stopped walking, raised his eyebrows and said, "A dead crow?"
After hearing this, the ghost was furious: "I am the great ghost general, the ghost."
"How dare you, human, insult this general like this? I want you to pay the price."
Meng Bai used his fingers as swords and slashed out with a mighty sword energy like that of mountains and seas.
In an instant, it pierced through the ghost's body.
"You talk so loudly, but you can't even block a single blow from me. This won't work!"
