Chapter 372: Terrified Demon Subduing Ghost Book

The next few days were as boring as ever.

The business of the bookstore was as bad as usual. There were no customers for almost a week.

Whenever the bookstore opened, it was losing money on utilities and meals.

Fortunately, Ling Ping’an was open-minded.

To him, whether the bookstore lost or earned money, it was a kind of life.

Therefore, he didn’t feel any pressure.

He even felt that this kind of life seemed to be pretty good.

Every day, he would type, read the news, eat and drink.

Unfortunately…

This kind of life was destined to not last long.

That afternoon, Ling Ping’an sat at the counter and was about to take a break.

His phone rang.

He picked it up and saw 404,100. It was a text message from the Federal Committee for the Children of Meritorous Contributors.

To be more precise, it should be an invitation letter.

“Mr Ling, please read this: On the first month of winter, the weather is rising and the earth’s air is falling, so the Emperor has been drinking and steaming since ancient times in order to reward those who have rendered meritorious service and to comfort those who are lonely and widowed… Dear Sir, as you are the backbone and pillar of the country… We sincerely hope that on 10th lunar month, on the day of Gui Mao, you may come to the imperial capital and meet the heroes of the world. We would be extremely grateful!

Remark: Before the Emperor, the Federal Committee for the Children of Meritorous Contributors.”

Ling Ping’an looked at it and stuck out his tongue, “I can’t avoid it in the end!”

The electronic invitation letter had arrived. The paper invitation letter was probably not far away.

“Gui Mao?” He checked the calendar. It was the 14th of next month and now it was already the 20th.

In other words, there were still 24 days?

He scratched his head, feeling a little troubled.

He really did not want to go, but he was afraid that he would be blacklisted.

In the end, he would need to do them the favour since he was benefited from them.

He did not want to cause trouble for himself. Everyone knew that the institutions under the royal family cared the most about face.

Whoever did not give them face, they would not give face to them!

“Ah…” Ling Ping’an said, “If only I knew how to split myself…”

“One go to the banquet, another become the tool person…”

“One do the writing at home…”

“And one plays games upstairs…”

Unfortunately… he shook his head. He didn’t know how to do that.

He raised his head and looked at the computer screen.

On the screen, his new book on the web page had been on the web for three days to test the waters.

What was the result?

It was okay!

Before it was on the web page, there were 321 collections and now it was almost 700.

Among the same batch of people, it was barely considered average.

If this went on, he could earn a few thousand Yuan.

He gently leaned back in his chair, held the mouse and looked at the number of the saved manuscripts.

“80,000 words!” He nodded, “It’s enough for me to waste some time!”

It had been a long time since he had a good time fighting in Canyon.

Occasionally, he would accompany Hu Nuonuo for a couple of duels in the middle of the night.

Personally, he preferred to play alone.

It was e-sports after all.

If he won, he would be awesome, but if he lost, he would blame his teammates.

If he join some close friends in the e-sports, it would be fine if he won, but if he lost, how could he shift the blame?

Then, he picked up his phone and charged into Canyon.

This was also the most common method he used to deal with problems -pretending that it didn’t exist and then consider it when the situation come.

In short…

Things would work out when the time comes!

…

Gryphonne IV, the foundry world.

The melted ice water had formed a prototype of an ocean on the surface.

Special aircraft hovered above the ocean, spraying salt grains.

The wise men of the Mechanical Sect evaporated the planet’s ocean thousands of years ago.

But now, they were bringing them back and they were accelerating the formation of the oceans.

It was just that marine life was a little hard to find!

The closest eco-planet to Gryphonne IV was a few light years away.

It would take decades for a normal voyage to make a round trip.

And subspace travel?

It wasn’t impossible!

The crux was navigation.

Ever since they lost contact with the pseudo-emperor’s empire, it had been a long time since Gryphonne IV had conducted subspace travel.

The main issue was navigation.

Without a pilot, rashly entering subspace was tantamount to sending food to the Diablos of subspace.

However…

“It’s alright!” The devout escort pilot looked at the rippling ocean beneath him, “We’ll soon have a complete ecosystem!”

“By then, The Soul of Machines will definitely bless us!”

“I can’t wait to see that moment!”

He raised his head and looked at the space port above the cockpit, which was hovering in the orbit of the planet.

A brand-new warship was being assembled right there.

It was the miracle of the Mechanical Sect!

It was also a miracle of The Soul of Machines!

In less than 20 days, a super interstellar battleship was miraculously completed assembled from the start!

Just by looking at the magnificent steel miracle, this pilot was sincerely worshipping from the bottom of his heart.

“Flesh is weak, but steel is eternal… Amen!” After praying, the jet that he was in position had already crossed the ocean and arrived at a landing field on the ground.

Countless mechas were parked on the airport that was made of steel.

However, the most eye-catching ones were the figures that were lining up to walk past the airport.

They looked like normal believers of the Mechanical Sect.

They wore gray cloaks and walked barefoot in the airport.

However, everyone knew that these people were the warriors blessed by The Soul of Machines, the first batch of terminators who had completed the transformation!

They were the true believers who had abandoned their weak flesh and blood and embraced steel and machinery.

Only the most devout believers, who had unreserved faith in the greatness of The Soul of Machines had a chance to receive the transformation!

The favored children of The Soul of Machines.

They were the warriors who were formed by machinery and steel.

The pilot lowered his head slightly, “I must continue to work hard… and strive to obtain the qualification in the next selection…”

“For The Soul of Machines…”

Amuniya stood in front of the steel window and watched the terminators who had completed their transformation walked down the path in front of him.

The first batch of terminators had paid a huge price for their transformation.

Out of 100 volunteers, only 30 had succeeded.

Out of the remaining 70, more than 50 had directly failed. They turned into waste that mixed with liquid metal.

In addition, there were more than 10 people in an extremely strange state.

Did they succeed?

In reality, they didn’t fuse with liquid metal.

Did they fail?

It didn’t seem like it because they were still alive.

Although they were in a coma, their breathing, heartbeat and brainwaves were still there.

Thinking of this, Amuniya could only pray for these people in his heart, “May The Soul of Machines bless us!”

Thinking of this, he pressed a button.

The metal cockpit he was standing in lit up.

Under the effect of the fusion propeller, the cockpit quickly broke away from the gravity and rose to the height of the orbit at an extremely fast speed.

In just a few seconds, he appeared in the orbit above the foundry world.

The Star Harbor then extended two mechanical arms to his cockpit and slowly pulled it over.

A few minutes later, Amuniya stood on the control tower of Star Harbor.

He looked down at the great battleship that was currently perching in Star Harbor, he was incomparably excited.

“The great Om Messiah… What great battleship did he bestow upon us?”

This battleship that was about to enter its service and was to be named the Multi-steamed Riveting.

It was the creation of a miracle.

From the start of its construction, all the gears and machinery had entered an unprecedented state of fanaticism.

The efficiency had increased by more than 1,000% .

During the installation, its transportation capacity had increased by a few hundred times.

It could be said that every piece of armor and its every part had been blessed by The Soul of Machines.

This was a pious battleship.

It was also a loyal warship!

It was even more a warship of faith!

“The Soul of Machines asked us to forge it, it is definitely not an empty target!” Amuniya said to the mechanical priests behind him, “I have a feeling…”

“It will become a sharp blade that will tear apart the false emperor!”

The Mechanical Bishop raised his head and looked at the starry sky.

In the depths of the vast starry sky, the shadow of Terra seemed to be faintly discernible and was calling out to him.

The decaying rule of the false emperor must be overthrown!

Because… The Soul of Machines had been violated by his rule!

…

Little Man quietly peeked out from the underground, peering at the monster in Green Mountain Town.

It had been sixteen sunsets.

The monster was still entrenched in the ruins of Green Mountain Town.

It was the same today.

The figure of the monster was still sitting cross-legged in the broken cocoon, breathing in and out the spirit aura of heaven and earth and cultivating.

Little Man watched and slowly retracted her head to the ground.

Then, she turned her head to look at the heavenly ghost that was suppressed by the talisman she wrote with the soul fire.

She walked over slowly.

“There’s only one left!”

“If I kill it and can’t break through the golden elixir…”

“I have to think about whether I should change my method!”

It was also ironic.

Now, Little Man and the monster in Green Mountain Town had reached a symbiotic relationship.

The monster occupied Green Mountain Town and for some reason, the heavenly ghosts hated it.

They attacked again and again.

They attacked uncontinuously!

Until one day, Little Man caught an injured heavenly ghost that was forced into the underground shelter during the fight.

In front of the soul fire, the heavily injured heavenly ghost was directly swallowed.

This also increased Little Man’s cultivation many times!

She broke through from the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage to the late stage of the foundation establishment stage.

It also allowed the monster of Green Mountain Town to discover Little Man.

After it learned of Little Man’s ability, it began to throw some heavenly ghosts into this underground shelter.

Those it killed…

Those it crippled…

Little Man didn’t refuse any of them and accepted all of them with a smile.

This allowed the relationship between the two sides to get closer.

Both sides tacitly agreed to each other’s existence.

Little Man needed it to act as a fighter so that she could devour the spirits of the heavenly ghosts and improve her cultivation.

And it also needed Little Man’s soul fire to destroy the heavely ghosts so that it would not be besieged and killed by them before it could truly grow up.

However, Little Man knew that this kind of relationship would not last long.

Once she broke through into a golden elixer or the other party’s cultivation broke through the bottleneck, the two parties would no longer need each other and would immediately fall out.

Thinking of this, Little Man raised the sword in her hand.

The soul fire ignited bit by bit and she stabbed the sword into the heavenly ghost’s chest.

The soul fire burned.

The heavely ghost that had long been suppressed by the soul fire turned into a pile of charcoal in the flames.

And the soul fire flew back to Little Man’s forehead bit by bit from the sword blade after devouring the other party, drilling into her eyes.

Little Man closed her eyes and began to digest.

Lord Xuan’s curse sounded in her ears.

After a long while, Little Man opened her eyes with a hint of disappointment.

This time, she still couldn’t form a sword elixir.

But…

She gained something new.

She slowly opened her hand and the long sword in her hand gently waved out a bit of soul fire.

“A single burning fire can burn all things, so where is the fire if all things die?A breath can destroy all things, so where is the path if all things die?” Little Man softly chanted the curse.

“Go forth the law order!”

“In the name of Lord Xuan, I call upon your order!”

A talisman appeared in the soul fire inscription.

For a moment, the entire underground cave seemed to have ghosts wailing and wolves howling. A cold wind blew.

Countless souls appeared from all directions.

They surrounded Little Man and let out terrifying screams.

“Rise!” Little Man lightly tapped.

The talisman formed by the soul fire hit the air.

The temperature of the entire cave immediately dropped.

The dead souls let out a terrified scream.

The ground of the cave was muddy, stinky, and dirty!

The talisman dispersed and the soul fire fell into the mud, making two twisted yin-yang fish appeared in the mud.

These two yin-yang fish were rotten all over and gave off a stinky smell. Maggots even crawled out of their shadows.

They chased each other with their mouths full of sharp teeth, wanting to devour each other.

But in the end, it was impossible for them to touch each other.

This made their resentment unable to increase.

And four bony claws stretched out from the mud.

A pair of deformed and terrifying thin wings spread out. The huge wings immediately covered the entire cave.

The mouth that was a bit like a crow and a mole, but full of twisted and sharp teeth opened and a pair of turbid eyes looked at Little Man.

It seemed to be beyond imagination.

But…

After feeling it for a long time, it still lowered its body like a domesticated animal.

“Here comes the order…”

“The heavenly ghost has broken its wings to pay tribute to you… Miss!”

The Lord Xuan’s spell was not wrong.

It prostrated itself.

Although the Bayakis had been serving the great Kaiser in Yellow for countless year…

Sometimes, the even greater Lord Xuan would use a command curse to take them away from the starry skies.

Under the Terrified Demon Subduing Ghost Book, every Bayakis had to respond as soon as they sensed the summoning!

And…

Under this command curse, their forms would also change.

From a race in the starry skies, they would become planet creatures.

Of course, they would also receive compensation.

This compensation was enough to make all the Bayakis willing to be changed.

This was because, according to legend, the most powerful king of Bayakis had responded to the Terrified Demon Subduing Ghost Book, which allowed him to grow up and eventually established old sun.

Becoming a dog for the ruler…

How many Bayakis begged for that but couldn’t get it!

Even if she didn’t seem to have anything to do with the incarnation of the ruler but since she could use Lord Xuan’s Terrified Demon Subduing Ghost Book, then she must be related to Lord Xuan!

Being a dog to the servant girl of the incarnation of the ruler…

It was also an honor!

“It worked!” Little Man was shocked.

She thought that her world was in an enclosed outer space and the Lord Xuan’s spell might not be effective.

She didn’t expect it to succeed!

The Terrified Demon Subduing Ghost Book really captured a heavenly ghost for her to control.

Closing her eyes, Little Man immediately understood the use of this heavenly ghost.

It was an excellent mount.

It came and went without a trace and it was extremely fast!

Of course…

In comparison, Lord Xuan’s evaluation of its combat strength was only 5.

It was roughly equivalent to the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage!

But this was already enough!

Coincidentally…

Little Man planned to leave this place!

That monster’s breakthrough wasn’t far away.

If she didn’t leave now, she probably wouldn’t be able to leave.

Thus, Little Man lightly shouted, “In the name of Lord Xuan, bring me out of this place!”

“Yes!” The heavenly ghost immediately prostrated itself and let Little Man sit on it.

It immediately climbed up to the entrance of the cave, lightly flapped its wings and flew up into the sky without a trace.

It had to be said that the concealment of the heavenly ghost was really very strong!

The monster in Green Mountain Town had no time to react, yet Little Man had already disappeared into the distance.
