Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 652
Chapter 652 Sacrificing and Refining Evil Spirits!
Within the cave of the Third Yin Division of the Pingling Mountains, Xiao Ding, who had already left, had returned to this place.
There were three reasons why he came back. First, the Third Yin Division had set up many formations outside the cave. They could isolate him from the outside world, making it impossible for the people outside to find his location. Second, Xiao Ding needed time to absorb the memories of the Third Yin Master in order to have a complete and clear understanding of the God Realm. Otherwise, if he were to randomly walk outside, it would be practically impossible for him to move an inch. Thirdly, he already had the Sky Profound Ghost Scroll and the Earth Profound Ghost Scroll in his hands. Although Xiao Ding did not know what these two items were, he was certain that these two items would definitely be extraordinary through the performance of the three heroes of the Bai Clan.
Just as Xiao Ding was hiding in the cave to absorb the memories of the Third Yin Master, Silvermoon City had already turned the sky upside down.
The Bai Clan of Silvermoon City was definitely the largest clan in Silvermoon City. Otherwise, a younger generation like Bai Renwen’s three brothers would never have such an outstanding cultivation at the Void Paradise Realm.
The three brothers of the Bai Clan were called the “three heroes of the Bai Clan”, which showed that their status in the Bai Clan was not low. However, this was not strange. After all, these three brothers were not only the three with the highest cultivation levels among the younger generation of the Bai Clan, they were also the biological sons of the current Patriarch of the Bai Clan, Bai Dianfeng. In the Bai Clan, one of the direct descendants had a very high status.
It was not easy for cultivators to raise children. This had been mentioned before. The Samsara of Life and Death was originally decided by the heavens, but the purpose of cultivators’ arduous cultivation was to pursue longevity and eternal life. This matter was essentially a heaven-defying move. Since it was heaven-defying, he would naturally suffer heaven’s wrath.
Therefore, cultivators raised the next generation for the sake of the Heavenly Dao, and it was easy for them to die young. Normally, in order to protect their children, cultivators would not only use spiritual energy to nourish and nurture their lifelines before their children were born. As the child grew up, he had to take care of it anytime, anywhere, so as not to suffer from the wrath of the heavens.
It’s not easy to have a child, it’s not easy to make him grow up healthily. After completing these two tasks, it would be even harder to nurture the child into an expert at the Void Paradise Realm.
However, of the three sons that Bai Dianfeng was proud of, two were already dead. If their souls were arrested, they might even be refined into fierce ghost souls. The remaining one was lucky enough to escape, but his body had been destroyed. Even if he were to find a new physical body for him to revive, first, his cultivation would start from scratch, and secondly, the physical body he would be able to seize would not be his, and it would not be a single obstacle to his cultivation.
Bai Dianfeng’s current mood after such a thing happened was not hard to guess without a detailed description.
In Silvermoon City, the guards, disciples, collateral disciples, and direct descendants of the Bai Clan all offered sacrifices, and the elders poured out their nests. With such a large clan, all of these people were mobilized like an army, and there were over ten thousand of them.
Moreover, the cultivation of these ten thousand plus people was not low, and they were definitely not comparable to soldiers in the ordinary army.
Although Xiao Ding had already hid in the cave left behind by the Third Yin Master, he had successfully concealed his whereabouts by borrowing the formation of the cave. But if a cultivator were to find someone, then there would be more than one or two mysterious methods.
Before the Bai Clan’s elders could leave the Bai Clan, they had already calculated that the place where Bai Renwen’s soul aura had disappeared was in the Pingling Mountain area.
Although Pingling Mountain was not small, with the manpower and influence of the Bai Clan, it would be easy to turn Pingling Mountain upside down.
On the tallest tiger hump in Pingling Mountain, White Hall Peak stood with its hands behind its back as it looked down at the abyss that was filled with murderous aura. As the Patriarch of the Bai Clan, Bai Dianfeng was not an ordinary person.
Even though his heart was filled with rage and hatred, on the surface, he still looked calm and composed.
“Grand Elder, bring a thousand people and surround the entire Pingling Mountain. Not to mention humans, even a dog is not allowed to be released!” Bai Dianfeng ordered as the Patriarch.
“Order!” Although Great Elder Bai Qingxu had a high status in the Bai Clan, he had no choice but to accept orders from Bai Dianfeng as the Patriarch of the Bai Clan.
After Bai Dianfeng finished speaking, he nodded to Bai Qingxu and said, “Great Elder, you’ve worked hard.”
Bai Qingxu shook his head, “You’re welcome, Patriarch. Wen’er, Mo’er, and the others will at least call me ‘Grandpa’. Even if this old man abandons this old bone, he will definitely avenge them.”
After Bai Qingxu finished speaking, he immediately shouted loudly, “Everyone from Qian Pavilion, follow me and surround Ping Ling Mountain!”
Bai Dianfeng continued to order, “Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder, High Offerings. The four of you, together with a thousand people, will search the center one by one from each of the four directions. Don’t let go of a flower, a tree, a grass, or a stone!”
“Order!” The four of them also left after receiving their orders.
“The rest of you can scatter freely. Find them all!” After Bai Dianfeng finished speaking, he jumped to the bottom of the abyss first.
There were people searching for Xiao Ding everywhere in Pingling Mountain, but Xiao Ding in the cave acted as if nothing had happened. He slowly combed through all the memories of the Third Yin Division.
It had to be said that compared to the numerous cultivation methods in the memories of the Third Yin Master, the experience of martial arts and customs that the Third Yin Master had accumulated in the God Realm for more than 200 years was the wealth that Xiao Ding valued the most.
After absorbing the memories of the Third Yin Master, Xiao Ding, who was originally a stranger to the God Realm, could be said to know the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty like the back of his hand. Xiao Ding also had a good understanding of the several immortal dynasties that were adjacent to the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty.
“Originally, ‘Great Xia’ was referring to the Great Xia Immortal Dynasty. It crossed the border of the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty and arrived.”
After muttering to himself, Xiao Ding’s heart was much more assured. With the memories of the Third Yin Master, he was much more confident that he would safely cross the Great Zhou border and enter the Great Xia Immortal Dynasty to find Jiang Feng.
Of course, Xiao Ding also knew that he should put aside those who were looking for Jiang Feng. How to safely leave Silvermoon City was the first problem he had to face.
The Bai Clan of Silvermoon City was a ghost cultivator clan, so as a ghost cultivator, the Third Yin Master naturally had some understanding of them. Naturally, Xiao Ding also realized how powerful the Bai Clan was through the memories of the Third Yin Clan Master.
However, Xiao Ding had been a person who had brushed past the line of life and death since he was young. No matter how powerful the Bai Clan was, he was still not afraid.
As a top soldier king, Xiao Ding knew that the first thing he should do now was to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy and us, and then grasp the weaknesses of the enemy and gradually expand his strengths in order to break the situation.
In Xiao Ding’s analysis, there was only one advantage he had, and that was that he was in the shadows and the Bai Clan was in the shadows.
Although the Bai Clan’s influence was enormous, their numbers occupied an absolute advantage. But they are “noodles” and themselves are “dots”. If the dot was strong enough, it could pierce countless holes in the surface, and even completely destroy the “surface” in the end.
At the same time, Xiao Ding understood his disadvantage. If he walked out of the cave now, he would be discovered by the people of the Bai Clan in less than three seconds.
According to the memories and experiences of the Third Yin Division, there were two factors that Xiao Ding had discovered.
First, Bai Renwen and Bai Renmo’s souls were on him, and their direct blood relatives could easily sense their souls. Second, the move that Third Yin Master used before he died, ‘Ten Thousand Miles Ghost Howl’, released the evil spirits that he had refined for many years. Through those evil spirits, he could also find Xiao Ding’s location.
What Xiao Ding needed to do now was to eliminate these two disadvantages first.
The former was relatively easy for Xiao Ding. He had absorbed the memories of the Yin Three Masters. It wasn’t difficult for Xiao Ding to refine the souls of Bai Renwen and Bai Renmo and turn them into fierce ghosts for him to drive.
Once the sacrifice was successful, Bai Renwen and Bai Renmo’s souls would no longer be able to be sensed by the Bai Clan. At the same time, Xiao Ding’s paper strength could be increased.
However, the second matter was more difficult to deal with. Right now, Xiao Ding had already assimilated the soul of the Third Yin Division. The evil spirits refined by the Third Yin Master could sense Xiao Ding no matter what. In order to avoid the evil spirits’ senses, Xiao Ding could not find a good way in the memories of the Third Yin Master.
Xiao Ding did not think of a good solution to the second problem. He decided to solve the first problem first.
Sacrificing one’s soul to become a fierce ghost was a unique technique of the Ghost Cultivator bloodline. If properly operated, it could even preserve nearly 90% of one’s soul’s strength. This was enough to show how terrifying this technique was.
Xiao Ding closed his eyes and carefully reviewed the method of refining evil spirits by the Third Yin Master. Even someone as daring as Xiao Ding had no choice but to admit that this was an extremely cruel method after familiarizing himself with the method of refining evil spirits.
The whole process was divided into six steps: stripping, burning, cursing, crossing the blood, removing the void, and synthesizing.
The first step was to peel off the soul’s self-consciousness and memories through special methods. Just this step was a kind of extreme pain, if one imagined a person’s soul as a living being. Then this step is to cramp, debone, peel, bleed.
Although Xiao Ding rejected this cruel method in his heart, he knew that he had no choice in the current situation.
Xiao Ding immediately began to execute it. Bai Renwen and Bai Renmo’s souls were released by him, and then they were imprisoned by a special method of ghost cultivators. Then, if they were to be peeled off.
Although the two of them only had souls left, their miserable screams still numbed their scalps.
After stripping, it was roasted. This required the use of the Ghost Cultivator’s Soul Refining Furnace. Naturally, the Third Yin Master had this thing. The Soul Refining Furnace contained the Serene Bone Spirit Fire’s fire seed. Once the spiritual power activated the fire, it would flourish.
The purpose of burning the soul inside was to completely eliminate the consciousness and memories of the soul.
However, ghost cultivators who were refining had to pay attention at this step, because if they accidentally failed to control the fire, the Netherbone Spiritual Fire would be able to refine their souls without leaving any traces of ashes.
Stripping and roasting were two of the most difficult ways to refine ghosts, and the next four steps would be simple.
Xiao Ding proceeded cautiously and spent nearly an hour to finally complete the first two steps.
At this moment, Bai Dianfeng felt that he had completely lost the weak connection between his two sons’ souls.
Since he was a ghost cultivator, he naturally knew what had happened, and Bai Dianfeng couldn’t help but go crazy.
Boom! Bang!
The surrounding mountains around White Palace Peak violently shook and collapsed, and the ground continuously exploded.
Bai Dianfeng roared angrily, “Bastard! You refine my son’s soul! I swear that I will not kill you in this life! I swear that I will not be a human!”
