"Senior Brother Xue is still rational at the moment. Why don't you return to Golden Light City with me? The elders of the Sect may have a way to save you." Liu Ming pondered and suddenly suggested.
When Xue Hu heard this, a rare warmth flashed in his sunken and indifferent eyes, but it only flashed for a moment. He shook his head as if he had made a decision.
"It's too late … I don't have much time now. I have one thing to tell you. About seven or eight years ago, when my Ghost Clan Divided Soul occupied my body, I once led a group of ghost soldiers to ambush a small group of cultivators in the Heavenly Ghost Plain … Fortunately, I was still conscious at that time. I tried my best to control myself and didn't kill them … Now they are imprisoned in Vulture Slope. Younger Brother Liu, when you return to Golden Light City, remember to inform the top management of the Sect about this and rescue them as soon as possible … Alas, now I have become like this because of my greed. But those people should still be saved … "
When the middle-aged man said this, his face showed pain again, and his body trembled violently.
"Heavenly Ghost Plain? Senior Brother Xue, is there a short-haired female cultivator who practices Ghost Cultivation Method in that team of cultivators? "Liu Ming's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked.
However, at this time, the middle-aged man's face was already distorted. How could he listen to Liu Ming? The eyes on his human face slowly closed, and the other evil ghost face opened its eyes. Black gas suddenly surged on his body, and his whole body was quickly covered by ghost qi. In the blink of an eye, most of his body had turned into the body of an evil ghost.
Liu Ming sighed, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes. He waved the sword in his hand, and the Bitter Wheel Sword shot out like lightning. It grew to a length of ten meters in an instant, and chopped at the evil ghost's neck.
The evil ghost's face showed horror, and it opened its mouth to let out a loud roar. But now the Ghost Separated Soul had not completely occupied the body. It could barely control the ghost qi to condense a ghost qi shield on the surface of the body.
"Hmph!"
The sword gesture in Liu Ming's hand changed, and the sword light of the Bitter Wheel Sword suddenly shone brightly. Purple lightning snakes with the thickness of an arm were ejected from it. The lightning snakes easily tore apart the dark ghost qi shield.
Then, with a flash of purple light, the Bitter Wheel Sword circled around the evil spirit's neck like lightning.
The malevolent expression on the evil ghost's face froze, and in the next moment, its head tilted to the side as it tumbled to the ground, and a pillar of crimson blood gushed out.
The headless body fell to the ground. The Ghost Qi in the man with a square face slowly dissipated, and he quickly turned into a human.
At this moment, one green and one black, two entangled soul essences flashed out from the top of the head and flew into the distance.
A strange expression appeared on Liu Ming's face. He gently pointed with one hand, and a faint purple spiral sword qi shot out. It accurately struck the black essence soul.
A shrill scream was heard. The black Soul Essence dissipated into thin purple electric arcs that were emitted by the Spiraling Sword Qi!
The remaining green essence soul condensed in the air, and it let out a sigh of relief, then it flew away.
After Liu Ming watched the green essence soul go away, he retracted his gaze and flicked his fingers. Two fireballs fell on the two parts of the body of the man with a square face. The raging fire suddenly ignited.
Lonely Mountain blood rain, flames burning corpses, this scene made Liu Ming's heart flashed a hint of disappointment and disappointment.
Xue Hu could enter the Evil Spirit Way and was selected as a spy with Jin Dan's cultivation. Obviously, regardless of temperament or aptitude, he was once the best in the Sect. He was probably not a nobody.
But now, because of his greed, he ended up in such a miserable end. It was regrettable.
"Huh …"
Just when the corpse turned into wisps of gray flames and drifted away with the wind, Liu Ming suddenly raised his eyebrows. He waved his hand, and a pale red storage ring flew into his hand from the ground.
"This is Xue Hu's storage ring …" Liu Ming's face changed, and he put it away.
At the same time, in the direction of the Giant Mountain Fortress, there were a few faint ghost shadows flying toward this side.
Liu Ming glanced at them, and he didn't stay here any longer. He made a sword gesture, and the purple light of the Bitter Wheel Sword rolled out, lifting his body and flying away at lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, the purple sword light turned into a bright spot on the horizon, and then it disappeared.
A few days later, in the hall of the central spire of Golden Light City.
Liu Ming, who had just returned safely, was standing in the center of the hall, telling the Haoyue Boy and the grim-faced middle-aged man what happened in the Giant Mountain Fortress a few days ago.
"I really didn't expect that I would encounter such a big problem after turning into a ghost body. Even Xue Hu of Cangsong Peak was not spared." After listening to Liu Ming, the Haoyue Boy couldn't help sighing and saying.
Liu Ming just stood there with his hands hanging down at this time, and he didn't say anything.
"No wonder we lost contact with the lurking disciples one after another. Even the disciples who haven't lost contact with each other, the interval between sending messages is getting longer and longer. I'm afraid that these people were not discovered and eliminated by the higher-ups of the ghost army as we expected, but encountered similar situations. I'm afraid that some of them have already degenerated into the real ghost army … It's really a bit abrupt to carry out this lurking plan in a hurry that day." The grim-faced middle-aged man shook his head and sighed with regret.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Gu, you don't have to blame yourself too much. As far as I know, the situation at that time was also quite urgent. The lurking plan was also decided by the higher-ups. We really had no choice. What we need to do now is to discuss a countermeasure as soon as possible." The Haoyue Boy persuaded him.
"Junior Fellow Apprentice Haoyue is right. We still need to make a further report to the higher-ups, and then decide whether to recall the rest of the spies as soon as possible." The grim-faced middle-aged man said with a frown.
"Liu Ming, in addition to those imprisoned disciples of the Sect, did Xue Hu leave any other information?" Haoyue Boy turned and asked Liu Ming.
"At that time, as soon as Senior Xue said these, his body was occupied by the evil ghost's soul clone again. In order to protect myself, I had no choice but to behead him. However, I brought back his storage ring. I don't know if there is any important information in it. "Liu Ming replied respectfully. At the same time, he took out the storage ring that he picked up and handed it over.
As for this storage ring, he simply glanced at it with Divine Thought and found that its structure was very complicated. The storage space was divided into several parts, and there were even layers of self-explosion enchantment in it. If he didn't know the method to unlock it, he couldn't open it at all.
The man with a cold face waved one hand, and the pale red storage ring spun in the air, then it slowly fell into his hand.
Then, he gently tapped on the storage ring with one hand. The spirit patterns on the storage ring flickered continuously, emitting rays of green light. After a while, it returned to normal.
After that, the grim-faced man carefully checked the storage ring, he turned his head to look at Haoyue Boy on the side and nodded slightly.
"Liu Ming, you have also made a great contribution this time. I will report everything to the higher-ups. The Sect will reward you later. You can go back first. I still have to discuss with Senior Brother Gu on how to rescue those imprisoned disciples. "After Haoyue Boy praised Liu Ming for a few words, he was ready to send him away.
"Thank you, Master's Junior. If there is any news about Senior Sister Xiaowu, please let me know. Disciple will take his leave. "Hearing this, Liu Ming respectfully cupped his hands towards the two and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute! Since you mentioned Xiaowu, about the rescue of these disciples, if you are willing … this task will be handed over to you. There is no need to specially transfer people to rescue them. Here is a Jade Slips, you can take a look first. "
After the grim-faced middle-aged man pondered for a while, he suddenly stopped Liu Ming and took out a light green Jade Slips from the storage ring. He raised one hand and it steadily fell into Liu Ming's hand.
After Liu Ming took the Jade Slips, he stuck it on his forehead. After a while, his face changed slightly.
The Jade Slips recorded the Spirit Vulture Slope that the man surnamed Xue mentioned that day.
The Spirit Vulture Slope was a natural valley more than ten thousand miles away from the northeast of the Giant Mountain Fortress. There was a towering hillside at the mouth of the valley that was covered with snow all year round. It was shaped like a snake vulture, hence the name.
Because this place was covered with a large amount of Yin Qi all year round, it was occupied by the Evil Ghost Legion as a Ghost Formation Research Institute. Therefore, there were not many Evil Ghost Guards, but there were many kinds of Restrictive Spells.
Liu Ming took the Jade Slips off his forehead and showed a thoughtful expression.
From the situation recorded on the Jade Slips, although there were not many guards at the Spirit Vulture Slope, there should be one or two Evil Ghost Commanders at the level of Jin Dan. Although it was not a problem for him to deal with one or two Evil Ghost Commanders, there were many Restrictive Spells there. If he did not have a good way to break the Restrictive Spells and quickly rescue the people, he was afraid that it would attract a large number of Evil Ghost Legion reinforcements.
In addition, according to various circumstances, the Taiqing Gate disciples who were imprisoned by the hidden Evil Ghost Commanders were likely to be the missing human cultivator team that Xiaowu was in.
"Liu Ming, if you are willing to go, I will try to send other teams to carry out some raids at other strongholds near the Spirit Vulture Slope to involve the Ghost Legion in these places. However, in order to not attract attention, one person must act secretly during the rescue operation. If you feel that it is not suitable, you don't have to force yourself. "Seeing this, the Haoyue Boy reminded him.
"I have thought about it. I am willing to carry out this mission." Liu Ming thought quickly and immediately replied resolutely.
The Haoyue Boy was slightly stunned by Liu Ming's straightforward answer, and a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the cold-faced middle-aged man.
"Yes, I did not choose the wrong person! You go back and make preparations first. We will report this matter to several Supreme Elders and study the specific action plan. "The cold-faced middle-aged man changed the topic and said.
