Shen Yi was also observing Li Chunfeng's actions.
In his opinion.
The characteristics of spiritual energy in this world were very obvious. Similar to the previous world, it was still mainly about strengthening the body. They called it "Blood Qi" cultivation, and there was no form of energy release. Even if one had reached the level of a Level One Extraordinary, they would only be faster and stronger.
This characteristic was useless in front of evil spirits.
However, Li Chunfeng's actions at this moment surprised him.
The altars didn't seem to have any effect, but the blood of the beasts was filled with a bloody aura. Most importantly, the talismans were made of various materials and mixed with the blood of the cultivators with high cultivation bases. They did contain a certain amount of spiritual energy. If they hit the evil spirits with gravity, they would have some effect.
Could it be that evil spirits really existed in this world?
But …
Shen Yi's brows furrowed slightly.
It was indeed useful, but it was too weak. Based on the strength of the evil spirits he saw before, once they were formed, with this level of Blood Qi talismans and Li Chunfeng's cultivation … only death would await them.
Not only that.
Li Chunfeng's actions only increased the fear of the people around him.
Shen Yi saw it clearly.
The Blood Qi of the palace maids, eunuchs, and even a few guards spread out and condensed together with fear. There was a cloud of black mist that ordinary people could not sense.
At first, it was very faint, very faint.
It was not supposed to take shape.
But now, it was gradually solidifying.
Fear would increase the probability of evil spirits being born. This was confirmed in Clove's model. But obviously, the ancient records that Li Chunfeng read did not mention this.
Shen Yi watched as Li Chunfeng jumped around and pasted talismans all over the place where the eunuch died. He even pasted talismans on other parts of the palace, including Li Shimin's bedroom.
It wasn't until dusk that he stopped, sweating profusely.
"Your Majesty, the Nine Heavens Black Sun Formation has taken shape. Your Majesty can sleep peacefully without any worries." Although Li Chunfeng was exhausted, there was a hint of satisfaction between his brows. He even said proudly, "This is the strongest formation recorded in our sect's supreme scripture. According to the scripture, once this formation is used, ordinary ghosts will have nowhere to hide and will be annihilated."
"Good, good!"
Li Shimin nodded. He seemed to be affected by Li Chunfeng's confidence and heaved a sigh of relief.
He was not worried that Li Chunfeng was bluffing.
Haotian Taoism had been passed down for thousands of years and had a strong foundation. Moreover, if it was useless, he would not be able to sleep tonight. By then, Li Chunfeng's punishment would be a small matter, but Haotian Taoism's reputation would be affected.
"Your Majesty, I will continue to guard this place tonight," Li Chunfeng said. His confidence in the formation was genuine.
"That's good! Thank you for your hard work. "Li Shimin nodded with relief, then left to review the memorials.
However, Shen Yi's expression was rather strange.
He was high up in the sky, so he could see everything clearly from beginning to end.
A few days ago, there really weren't any evil spirits in this palace.
Li Shimin's insomnia and nightmares were the cause of his anxiety and worry.
Now, after Li Chunfeng's' hard work 'today …
Li Shimin was no longer worried.
However, the evil spirit in the palace had absorbed enough Qi and blood from the eunuchs and palace maids. It was about to take shape.
As for the talismans …
They were almost useless against an evil spirit of this level.
This was interesting.
"Clove, call them over," Shen Yi ordered.
"Yes," Clove replied.
Not long after, the other four people who were originally cultivating rushed over and stood on the deck together with Shen Yi.
"I think we'll be in contact with the 'mortal emperor' tonight." Shen Yi smiled and raised his hand. A mirror image appeared in front of the four people so that they could see what was happening below.
Li Shimin was able to relax for a while tonight. He did not work too late and went to bed early.
As usual, he slept with Empress Zhangsun.
At first, he fell into a deep sleep after a short while. He was exhausted.
However, in the dark night …
Streaks of frost gradually condensed on the ground of the palace.
There seemed to be invisible footprints.
There was also a bone-chilling wind that kept blowing, making whistling sounds.
If coupled with the creepy background music, it would be a scene of a horror suspense film.
Gu Yan and the others knew.
The evil spirit was about to appear.
At this moment, a group of eunuchs who were patrolling at night were holding lanterns and walking around the palace.
These eunuchs were usually in groups of four. They mainly monitored the harem to see if there were any concubines or palace maids going out at night.
All of a sudden …
A gust of chilly wind blew.
It was bone-chilling, like a knife, and blew out all the lanterns.
In an instant, it was so dark that they could not see their fingers.
The eunuchs quickly took out a fire starter, but the chilly wind kept blowing and they could not light the lanterns at all.
"Quick, gather in a circle," the leader of the eunuchs said. So they all gathered together.
They bowed their heads to block the chilly wind. This time, they finally lit the lanterns.
The leader of the eunuchs held the lit lantern and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He wrapped his clothes around himself and was about to let the other four light the lanterns.
Suddenly, he was stunned.
Four people?
Because at this moment, he lowered his head under the dim and constantly flickering light of the lanterns.
In front of his eyes …
One, two, three, four …
Four pairs of eunuchs' shoes and legs.
He counted again from left to right.
One, two, three, four …
"How can there be four pairs of shoes?" The eunuchs could not help exclaiming. His face was full of fear, and he shivered violently.
"But there are four of us," the eunuchs on the left said strangely.
"Yes, four people, four pairs of shoes," the eunuchs on the right also said.
"Did you count your own shoes but think you didn't?" The eunuchs on the opposite side laughed softly.
"Yes, yes." The leader of the eunuchs showed a silly look and lowered his head to count. Didn't he know how to count his own shoes?
He lifted the lantern again.
One, two, three, four …
But his expression was completely frozen.
Just like before, there were only four pairs of shoes and four pairs of legs in front of him.
But …
"Where are my shoes?" He suddenly screamed. "Where are my legs?"
Four pairs of legs were placed in front of him, but there was nothing under his body. There was nothing.
As he screamed, his upper body suddenly fell backward and slammed heavily on the ground. The lantern swayed under him, but he still could not see his own legs. In the swaying candlelight, the four eunuchs in front of him, wearing the same eunuchs' clothes, also screamed in horror.
"He, he has no legs!"
"He is the extra one!"
"He is a ghost! He is a ghost! "
"Run! Run! "
