What's going on?!
He tilted his head and looked at the golden color above his head. He saw that after the River of Forgetfulness crossed the entire ghost city, it landed at the city gate and returned to normal. Only the section in the city looked like two waterfalls floating in the sky.
Yi Qing had some guesses in his heart. He immediately understood why the ghosts in the city could not get out. He changed his hand seal and the Rebirth Array appeared under his feet. He waved his hand and the array slowly rose into the sky, enveloping the entire ghost city.
In the next moment, the ghosts turned into green smoke again and flew into the River of Forgetfulness in the sky, disappearing without a trace. The city that Yi Qing had already dispelled a round of Yin Qi, now that there were no malicious ghosts, the Yin Qi dissipated and the city returned to the appearance of a deserted city.
Yi Qing turned to look to the side. Song Ren was indeed still there. Shortie said that he could not enter Samsara, but he did not expect that he could not even enter the River of Forgetfulness.
"Master, I guess the River of Forgetfulness is the reason why the ghosts in this city cannot get out." He looked at Shen Ying.
The dislocation of the River of Forgetfulness caused the ghosts to be unable to enter in time. And the city gate was the node of the dislocation of the River of Forgetfulness, thus forming a sealed space. That was why the ghosts could not get out. And the living could not enter the River of Forgetfulness, so it did not affect them. Song Ren could not enter the River of Forgetfulness because of grievous energy, so Lonemoon could come and go as he pleased.
"I have already temporarily sent these ghosts into the River of Forgetfulness above. But to let them return to the Underworld, we need to return the River of Forgetfulness in time." If the River of Forgetfulness could not return, then these ghosts would never be able to reach the Underworld. More importantly, the section in the sky was obviously one of the branches of the River of Forgetfulness. If left here, it would dry up one day. The other branches that connected to it would also dry up, which would cause even worse effects. "Master, do you have a way to let it return to the ground?"
"Hmm …" Shen Ying tilted her head. "How about, pulling it down?"
"…" Pull? He hesitated. How to pull? The River of Forgetfulness did not have a physical body.
No, no, no, Master said it could be pulled. That definitely made sense.
After thinking for a moment, a gust of Spirit Qi formed in his hand. In an instant, it condensed into thousands of threads and flew towards the golden River of Forgetfulness in the sky. However, the moment the Spiritual Qi touched the River of Forgetfulness, it passed right through it. Indeed, it couldn't touch it.
He frowned and subconsciously sensed the assistant imprint on his body. In the next moment, the spiritual energy, which had yet to touch a physical body, suddenly emitted a thump, like the sound of something entering the water. On the surface of the river, a small drop of golden spray instantly splashed.
Touch … touch!
(⊙o⊙)
So this was how the assistant seal was used?
Overjoyed, he raised his hand and produced even more spirit threads. They flew into the sky and crossed the entire river, directly binding up half of the river. Then, he pulled down forcefully. The sound of water splashing could be heard. The originally calm surface of the River of Forgetfulness was instantly stirred up by layers of waves, and its position was also gradually falling downwards.
Yi Qing adjusted his cultivation and pulled harder, causing the golden river to descend even faster. After a quarter of an hour, he finally pulled the dislocated River of Forgetfulness back to the ground.
The abnormality of the original high and low water levels at the city gate was also restored. The River of Forgetfulness in the city began to flow again, and the surface of the river began to shine with a faint golden light.
"Master, the method you mentioned is indeed useful." Yi Qing looked at Shen Ying happily. Master indeed.
"…" What did she say?
From now on, there would no longer be ghosts trapped in the city. Yi Qing heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Song Ren beside him. He frowned again, but … he still did not find out how exactly he died.
"Master, why don't we go to the nearby town and ask what exactly happened in this city?" The dislocation of the River of Forgetfulness could at most trap ghosts, but the cause of death of this person in the city was unknown. Perhaps they could find out why Song Ren carried grievous energy.
"Oh." Shen Ying nodded.
Yi Qing was about to fly on his sword when he felt an unfamiliar aura approaching. Someone was coming!
He stopped moving. No matter who it was, they were definitely familiar with this ghost city. He decided to stop moving and wait for that person to appear.
Indeed, in a short while, a man in a green robe appeared at the city gate, but he did not fly over on his sword. Instead, he seemed to have used a spell that shrank the ground into inches and rushed over. The person first stopped in front of the city gate and looked around in surprise. "The … the ghost Qi in this city has actually completely disappeared!"
The person's face was full of disbelief. Only then did he notice Yi Qing in the city. Suddenly, he thought of something and his eyes brightened. He made a strange gesture towards him, as if it was some kind of etiquette. Then he opened his mouth and said, "Did Fellow Daoist purify this evil ghost just now?"
Purify? For some reason, he did not like this word. He only sent it into the River of Forgetfulness for Samsara.
Yi Qing frowned, but still nodded.
The person became even more delighted. "Fellow Daoist is so kind!" He smiled brightly and seemed to heave a sigh of relief. "This ghost city has been causing trouble everywhere for many years. Even the Mystic Sect could not do anything about it. I did not expect that it would be resolved by Fellow Daoist today."
He seemed to have thought of something and continued, "I am Tang Han, from the Tang Family of Qing City. Fellow Daoist's Dao skills are so profound. I wonder which family are you from, and how should I address you? "
"Yi Qing."
"Yi?" He was stunned. He had never heard of such a surname among the Mystic cultivator families?
Just as he was puzzled, the person stepped aside and continued, "My master, Shen Ying."
Tang Han was stunned. He did not notice just now. Only now did he realize that there was actually a woman standing beside him. Surname Shen … His eyes brightened instantly. "Could the two of you be from the Shen Family of Luoyang?" No wonder, although the Shen Family was not a big Mystic cultivator family, it was also a well-known family for a hundred years. When did the Shen Family have such an amazing Mystic cultivator! He could actually resolve the evil ghost that even the Mystic Sect could not do anything about.
"No!" Yi Qing shook his head directly. What Shen Family of Luoyang, Tang Family of Qing City. Could it be that the cultivators of this small world were all from big families?
"No … No?" Tang Han, who had guessed wrongly time and time again, was stunned. "Then which family are the two of you from?" They couldn't be independent cultivators, could they?
The master and disciple exchanged a look and then replied in unison.
"Niu Family!"
Tang Han: "…"
(⊙_⊙)
Huh?
Which family was the Niu Family? Never heard of it! Could it be a hidden big family?
"Fellow Daoist Tang, do you know what exactly happened in this city? Why are there evil ghosts all over the city? "Yi Qing stepped forward and asked.
Tang Han saw that the other party had no intention of explaining his origin in detail, so he did not ask anymore. Looking at the deserted city, he sighed and said, "Sigh … Speaking of the people of this Qing He County, they are really pitiful. Now that the world is chaotic and deviant ghosts run rampant, the residents of this city have suffered from this disaster."
"Deviant ghosts?" Yi Qing was stunned. He had only heard of deviant beasts and deviant demons. What the hell were these deviant ghosts?
Seeing the other party's puzzled face, Tang Han was even more certain that the other party was from a hidden big family. He stepped aside and said, "If you don't mind, can the two of you follow me back to my humble house, and I will tell you in detail?"
Yi Qing looked at Shen Ying beside him. Seeing that she did not object, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you!"
"Please!"
