After the deployment was complete.
Yuchi Jingde was just one person, walking forward step by step.
He wanted to keep the battlefield as far away from the people at the back as possible.
He had already gained some "experience" from Cheng Yaojin. Ordinary martial artists were powerless in front of evil ghosts. In other words, the ten people he brought had become a "burden" instead.
But this was the test that the immortals spoke of.
If he couldn't even protect these few people, how could he protect the common people?
Yuchi Jingde was very careful. Immortal Gu had already said before that the strength between ghosts was completely different. If it was a powerful ghost, even with his strength, it could suck all his Qi and blood dry in an instant.
And at this moment, the cold feeling seemed to be constantly attacking him.
His concentration was already at the highest level.
Suddenly, some whispers drifted to his ears along with the cold wind.
"Tangs … Tangs …"
Yuchi Jingde immediately recognized the strange tone of his voice.
This was the tone that the Turks used when talking about the Tang.
This was a Turk ghost?
The fear in his heart seemed to have dissipated by quite a bit.
"I've been fighting for half my life, and I've never been afraid of barbarians." Yuchi Jingde even raised his head and puffed out his chest, shouting loudly, "If you have the guts, come in front of your grandfather!"
Just as his voice fell, a ferocious evil ghost emitting a cold aura all over its body appeared before him.
How ferocious was it?
There was no intact flesh on its body, as if it was just a pile of rotten flesh wrapped around a white skeleton. Its face was even more hideous, covered in maggots.
But when Yuchi Jingde saw it, he was instead amused.
"Barbarians are barbarians. I told you to come, and you really came." He didn't hesitate at all. He directly raised his palm and activated the technique bestowed by the immortal lord on the back of his hand.
In an instant, many purple chains flew out.
That evil ghost instantly let out a shrill scream.
It originally wanted to escape, but there was no other way.
It was directly tied up by the chains, turned into black fog, and dragged back to the back of Yuchi Jingde's hand. Then, black fog emerged from Yuchi Jingde's entire arm, enveloping half of his body.
It was the state of ghost possession!
Yuchi Jingde raised his hand and pushed.
A big tree half the size of a person beside him collapsed with a boom.
The fracture was completely covered in frost.
Yuchi Jingde himself was shocked because he felt that he hadn't used much strength at all.
The power of this evil spirit was indeed formidable!
"That's it?"
When everyone saw Yuchi Jingde return, each and every one of them exchanged glances.
This was completely different from what they had imagined.
The main thing was that Cheng Yaojin had been bragging about how he had fought 300 rounds with the evil spirit until he was out of breath and exhausted. Only then did he use the technique bestowed by the Immortal Monarch.
"This barbaric evil spirit is truly foolish." Yuchi Jingde sneered, "He just came out after I called him. What kind of peace is there to talk about?"
In order to catch a ghost, the immortal lord had to first determine the location of the ghost.
After confirming it, things were much more convenient.
Just activate it directly.
Jian Da was extremely rude.
However, even though the process was simple, it still boosted everyone's confidence.
As expected of a technique bestowed by a Celestial Lord, catching ghosts was a piece of cake.
At this moment.
Yuchi Jingde's brows suddenly furrowed slightly. The black fog on the back of his hand sinisterly revolved, and he looked to the other side.
"More wraiths are coming."
"Is that true?"
The rest of the people looked in the direction Yuchi Jingde was pointing.
"Indeed, with the help of the ghost, I can vaguely sense it."
"Why can't I sense it?" Cheng Yaojin scratched his head slightly, rather puzzled.
Could it be that he was not a ghost controller?
However, there was no time for him to think too much.
Everyone suddenly shuddered violently.
The temperature was already very cold, and there was a cold wind blowing continuously. However, the current situation was much colder than before. Some people even felt their bodies stiffen, unable to move at all.
With such a change, even if Yuchi Jingde did not say anything, everyone could feel that the ghost was about to appear.
Li Jing's expression changed slightly.
This feeling …
It was almost the same as the evil spirit in the army he had seen at the beginning.
"Look!" Suddenly, someone pointed ahead and said.
Actually, there was no need for him to point. Everyone could see that on the ground in front of them, streaks of visible white frost were spreading continuously. However, what made some people even more alarmed was that it did not seem to be just white frost.
On the ground that was covered, all the vegetation was rapidly withering.
Even the trees were visibly turning pitch-black and even withered.
In the end, they turned into black ash.
It was as if they were slowly being burned by a small fire.
However, this was clearly frost. What everyone felt was also extreme cold.
This time.
Everyone remembered what Immortal Gu had said.
The strength of each ghost was not the same.
Without a doubt.
The ghost that was slowly approaching them was not weak at all!
"Let me deal with this ghost."
Li Jing said aloud, his expression grave as he moved forward bit by bit.
Gradually, he approached the strange frost that was constantly spreading.
All of a sudden.
A shrill voice suddenly sounded, like a demonic voice that poured into one's ears. It was endless and seemed to go straight to one's heart, causing many people to be greatly shocked. An indescribable fear surged uncontrollably.
Even the people in Dingban City could hear it at this time.
Some of the Turkic scouts who were nearby were even more horrified.
The ghost's howl that appeared last night actually appeared again in broad daylight!
And Li Jing, who was close by, was greatly shocked by this howl. Blood flowed from his mouth, nose, and ears.
He had no choice but to bite the tip of his tongue and use the pain to stimulate his spirit. Then, he raised his breath and shouted.
Where was it? Where was the evil ghost?
If he could not find the evil ghost, he could not use the technique given by the Immortal Lord on the back of his hand.
"Above!" Yuchi Jingde suddenly yelled.
Li Jing raised his head abruptly and saw a ball of black fog that was pulsating above his head like a burning flame! In an instant, an illusion appeared in front of him. It was a raging fire that surrounded him. There was nowhere to escape to. Countless subordinates and even his family members were wailing in the fire.
Gu Yan also narrowed his eyes slightly.
The strength of this evil ghost had probably reached the second stage.
In the wilderness, where could there be so much Qi and blood to make it stronger?
However, what Gu Yan could not see, Shen Yi could see very clearly.
Strands of extremely weak Qi and blood that were like strands of hair were constantly gathering on this evil ghost from Dingban City not far away.
The Qi and blood came from the many people who were frightened by the ghost's howl.
Although a lot of it had already scattered midway, it could not withstand the large amount and directly pushed this evil ghost to the second stage.
