Book 07 Chapter 091: Fly Daoist
A forest in the Corpse Mound World:
“Lifespan ritual array, rise!”
Boom!
After the Unborn Man set up a ritual array, he trapped countless centipede resentful spirits in a blue lifespan ritual array.
“The centipede resentful spirits are even more problematic than the wolf resentful spirits. Although we have the Primal Essence Pearl to prevent them from approaching, they can spit out a poisonous mist containing divine nature, which can move through the air and enter any openings. Fortunately, the Unborn Man’s lifespan ritual array trapped them,” the Mosquito Daoist said with lingering fear.
“Resentful spirits? They are truly troublesome. As long as one survives, they can return. Furthermore, they would be even more resentful. Why does Heaven not deal with this place?” Kong Xuan frowned.
“The shamans and animal spirits originally ruled the world. That shocking war nearly eradicated both sides, leaving resentful spirits. They were very pitiful, and Heaven took pity on them, letting them remain in the world,” the Unborn Man said sullenly.
Kong Xuan frowned slightly but did not refute.
“Your Reverence, we cannot go straight forward. There is a powerful shaman resentful spirit there. We need to go around.” The Unborn Man frowned.
“Go around?” Gu Hai said.
“That is the Blood Shaman Resentful Spirit, one of the strongest resentful spirits of the Corpse Mound World. Although it is not of a rational mind, it is much stronger than what we have faced previously. Furthermore, it has consumed countless other resentful spirits and become overwhelmingly powerful. Even the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon failed to subdue it after trying a few times, so…,” the Mosquito Daoist said with a frown.
“Blood Shaman Resentful Spirit? It is that strong?” Kong Xuan said in shock.
In the land of the living, experts of the Mosquito Daoist’s level of strength were already extremely rare. Why were there suddenly so many in the nether realm?
“It is in this Corpse Mound World. It is best to avoid it. This Blood Shaman Resentful Spirit is truly powerful. I ran into it once and got injured. After that, I had to recuperate for a hundred years to return to my peak,” the Mosquito Daoist said with a bitter smile.
“Blood shaman resentful spirit?” Everyone’s face sank.
“Alright, we’ll go around.” Gu Hai nodded.
Gu Hai did not stubbornly insist on going straight but detoured around the region the Mosquito Daoist indicated.
The six no longer had the confidence they had when they first arrived. The various resentful spirits they had encountered had shown them the horror of the Corpse Mound World. These resentful spirits were endless and could not die. Furthermore, these resentful spirits were not the greatest danger yet. There was the Corpse Mound Peak.
“Your Reverence, we have been moving around for a while already. I…I think I know where your Mantra Seeking Ball is pointing,” the Mosquito Daoist said, making a face.
“Oh?”
“The central corpse pit,” the Mosquito Daoist said with an unsightly expression.
“The central corpse pit?”
“Yes. Why would Jiang Gautama place Crown Prince Gu Han in the central corpse pit? That is where most of the shaman and animal spirit corpses were buried. The resentful spirits there are more horrifying. Furthermore, the overwhelming Resentful Energy can affect one’s nature. No, at least sixty percent of the resentful spirits in the Corpse Mound World are in that place. Even the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon can barely enter. The others simply cannot,” the Mosquito Daoist said fearfully.
“A pit filled with shaman and animal spirit corpses?” Bodhisattva Lian Sheng appeared shocked.
“Is Crown Prince Gu Han still alive?” Chang Ming asked worriedly.
“Jiang Gautama’s life is tied to Gu Han. He will not kill Gu Han. Gu Han is definitely still alive,” Gu Hai said.
“Then we…,” the group said worriedly.
“We’ll give it a try. Let’s continue,” Gu Hai said.
Everyone nodded.
Now knowing the location and with the Mosquito Daoist to guide them, they bypassed the territories of the powerful resentful spirits, heading slowly to the central corpse pit.
Along the way, they ran into countless resentful spirits—both animal spirits and human-shaped. These resentful spirits attacked these trespassers.
However, Chang Ming had the Primal Essence Pearl, Gu Hai could annihilate the resentful spirits, and the Unborn Man had his lifespan ritual arrays to trap the resentful spirits.
The six traveled deeper in.
Coo!
Just then, the cry of a powerful bird rang out.
“A peacock’s cry?” Kong Xuan’s face sank.
Space trembled when that peacock cry rang out. Then, an azure light surged into the surroundings.
“Is this the resentful spirit of a peacock spirit? How incredible! Its cry can shake space?” Kong Xuan’s expression changed.
Gu Hai turned solemn. A resentful spirit that could cause Kong Xuan to change his expression was naturally an incredible existence.
“That’s impossible! It should not be here! This is the Avian King Resentful Spirit? Just like the earlier Blood Shaman Resentful Spirit, it is among the most powerful resentful spirits!” The Mosquito Daoist’s face sank.
Boom!
Various birds suddenly appeared in the surroundings.
There were sparrows, eagles, immortal cranes, vultures, and all sorts of other avian spirit beasts. They rushed over with overwhelming Resentful Energy. Their leader was a ten-kilometer-tall peacock resentful spirit, and that peacock was crimson.
“The Avian King Resentful Spirit?” Kong Xuan’s face sank.
“How can this be? Why is the Avian King here? This is not its territory!” the Mosquito Daoist said anxiously.
Coo! The Avian King let out a furious cry when it saw the group.
Whoosh!
Millions of avian resentful spirits charged over.
“Oh no! Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array!” The Unborn Man took out a small box containing the corpse worm that Gu Hai had given him recently.
The corpse worm did not resist in the Unborn Man’s hand as he pressed it on the ground.
The Unborn Man executed a secret technique. Then a black fog appeared with the corpse worm at the center, encasing everyone.
Coo! Caw!
The avian resentful spirits rushed over and entered the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array.
Whoosh!
The avian resentful spirits immediately lost their bearings and started flying around chaotically inside the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array.
Only the Avian King Resentful Spirit’s eyes could clearly see everything. It rushed at the group.
“Oh no! The Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array cannot stop it!” the Unborn Man said anxiously.
“The Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array? There’s also the earlier Blood Shaman Resentful Spirit. When resentful spirits of such levels go crazy, even the Primal Essence Pearl cannot stop them!” The Mosquito Daoist’s expression changed.
“Allow me!” Kong Xuan stepped forward and charged over.
Coo! The Avian King uttered a ferocious cry and flung out ten beams of five-colored divine light.
“Five-colored divine light? Excellent! Come!” Kong Xuan shouted.
Kong Xuan also flung out ten beams of five-colored divine light to clash.
Whoosh!
Boom!
The two sets of five-colored divine lights clashed in midair, and space tore. The powerful impact stalled Kong Xuan’s attack.
“How powerful! You are no weaker than me?” Kong Xuan’s expression changed.
Coo!
Kong Xuan transformed into a ten-kilometer-tall peacock.
“You are an ancient senior and are capable of the five-colored divine light. Unfortunately, you are just a resentful spirit without a physical body. I don’t believe you can be stronger than me with just a soul body!” Kong Xuan said coldly.
Coo!
Kong Xuan flung out a wing.
Boom!
Nearly one hundred beams of five-colored divine light filled the place, rushing at the Avian King.
Coo!
The Avian King brimmed with overwhelming resentment but lacked conscious thought; only resentment remained. It immediately flung out a wing, countering with fifty beams of five-colored divine light.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out as the Avian King moved back.
“Hahahaha! A resentful spirit is just a resentful spirit in the end. You are only so-so!” Kong Xuan said coldly.
As Kong Xuan sneered, it tossed out another hundred beams of five-colored divine light.
As the overwhelming beams of five-colored divine light rushed over, completely restraining the Avian King, victory seemed certain.
Coo!
The Avian King’s expression turned ferocious as it suddenly spread its wings.
Boom!
It flung out a thick beam of divine light—over ten times thicker than the earlier ones. However, there was only one beam.
This confused Kong Xuan; then, his expression suddenly changed.
“It’s…it’s not five colors! It’s six! This divine light has six colors! A six-colored divine light?” Kong Xuan’s expression changed dramatically, as it sensed a threat from the Avian King’s six-colored divine light.
One hundred beams of five-colored divine light? That’s not enough! Definitely not enough! Kong Xuan did not have time to think. It quickly moved its wings, sending out two hundred more beams of five-colored divine light.
One beam of six-colored divine light vs. three hundred beams of five-colored divine light.
Boom!
The attacks clashed in midair, and a destructive might spread out in all directions, creating a black hole that swallowed Kong Xuan and the Avian King. Then the shock waves continued towards the rest of the group.
“Oh no!” The Mosquito Daoist immediately waved his hand, protecting the group.
The shock waves from the black hole swept over everyone.
Then the ground exploded, exposing the corpse worm the Unborn Man controlled.
Bang!
The corpse worm burst, and the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array crumbled.
Coo! Caw!
The millions of avian resentful spirits rushed over ferociously upon spotting the group.
“Kong Xuan?” Gu Hai called out worriedly.
“Cough! Cough! I’m still alive, Your Reverence!” Kong Xuan’s voice came from a distance.
Space slowly mended, revealing a ferocious Avian King and Kong Xuan, who leaked blood from a corner of its beak.
If Kong Xuan had not dodged fast enough, the six-colored divine light would have split it in half.
“Six-colored divine light? This is the six-colored divine light? That’s not right. This is the weakened version of the six-colored divine light. This resentful spirit does not have a physical body and cannot execute it at full power? The six-colored divine light…if I learn the six-colored divine light, even Sect Master Heavenly Access will not be my match!” Kong Xuan looked excitedly at the Avian King despite being injured.
Now, the avian resentful spirits surrounded Gu Hai’s group.
“Primal Essence Pearl!” Chang Ming quickly activated the Primal Essence Pearl.
Coo! Caw!
The avian resentful spirits felt incensed, as a white light blocked them, preventing them from approaching.
“Fortunately, we have the Primal Essence Pearl.” The Mosquito Daoist let out a sigh of relief.
“Why are the resentful spirits relentlessly pursuing us?” Gu Hai frowned slightly.
Bodhisattva Lian Sheng formed a hand seal as he closed his eyes. “Past conception, connect the cause and effect. What is the source of the resentful spirits’ resentment?”
Buzz!
Suddenly, the hand seal that Bodhisattva Lian Sheng formed manifested externally and flew at a distant pile of rubble.
Boom!
The rubble exploded, revealing many flies.
Buzz! Buzz! The flies quickly fled into the distance.
“Fly Daoist? You lured these resentful spirits over? You bastard! Still running?” The Mosquito Daoist roared furiously as he flung out his sleeve, his expression changing.
Boom!
A dense swarm of black mosquitoes pursued the fleeing flies.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The number of flies in the surroundings immediately increased, flitting around rapidly as they filled the place.
There were many black mosquitoes and black flies. The two types of insects clashed everywhere.
The Mosquito Daoist left the protective range of the Primal Essence Pearl. His figure flashed and arrived in the center of the many insects, then threw a palm strike.
Boom!
That palm strike met another palm that appeared out of nowhere.
A powerful shock wave blasted the mosquitoes and flies away. An azure-robed man appeared near the Mosquito Daoist in the blink of an eye.
“It is indeed you, Fly Daoist!” the Mosquito Daoist said coldly while glaring.
