Ghost Cultivators were a special existence among the cultivators in the Teng Long Continent. They refined the three souls and gathered the seven spirits. They condensed the essence, Qi, and spirit of their entire body into the Extreme Yin Ghost Body. They separated themselves from the physical body and became a kind of existence that had no substance.
There were thousands of cultivation systems among the cultivators in the world, but all of them had the same goal. They fought against the heavens and pursued immortality. However, the path of immortality was vague and difficult to achieve. On the other hand, the Ghost Path was a shortcut to immortality.
Moreover, after condensing the ghost body, the person was equivalent to already dead. Although they could live in the world in the form of ghosts, they had become an abnormal species that could not see the sunlight.
In order to live in the world forever and not grow old and die, they abandoned their physical body and became a ghost. From then on, they could not see the sunlight and walk in the darkness forever. Not everyone was willing to walk on this path of ghost cultivation.
However, there were some people who did not succeed in cultivation and had no hope of immortality. They would rather live in the darkness forever than fall into the cycle of reincarnation and suffer the pain of reincarnation. Thus, they chose to enter the Ghost Palace of Plentiful City and cultivate the Ghost Path.
At this moment, in the valley, the young disciple of the Guangcheng Immortal Sect had already started fighting with the Ghost Soldier of Plentiful City. The sword light was like a rainbow, twisting and turning in the air. It emitted a dense sword aura and continuously attacked the ghost shadow. Everything that was swept by the sword light, whether it was a boulder or a tree, was all shattered. The power of the Hundred Steps Flying Sword could not be underestimated.
And in the hands of the Ghost Soldier of Plentiful City, there was a pitch-black long banner that was surrounded by black gas. As the long banner waved, the ghost aura surged and the ghost shadow blocked the sword light, not allowing it to get close to its body.
"That is the Five Ghost Banner?" Gu Fei's heart shuddered. That strange black banner that was shrouded in ghostly aura and seemed to be haunted by countless vengeful spirits did not seem to be an ordinary object. It was actually able to withstand the slash of that youth's Hundred Steps Flying Sword.
Ling Luoyan curiously followed Gu Fei to look around the valley. The ghostly cultivator holding the Five Ghost Banner had already started waving it. The ghostly aura that surged out from the banner immediately engulfed the ghostly cultivator, and a ghostly head appeared on the banner.
Ling Luoyan only took a single glance before she felt her mind become unsettled, as if her soul was about to fly out of her body. She couldn't help being shocked and hurriedly focused her mind.
"How sinister …" Ling Luoyan didn't dare to look anymore.
At this moment, Ling Luoyan suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing behind her, and a creepy feeling welled up in her heart. In the next moment, she felt Gu Fei's arm around her waist tighten, and her body soared into the air.
Boom! There was a huge tremor, and a golden light flashed. Ling Luoyan's body shook, and she was carried into the valley by Gu Fei.
At this time, she saw that four pale, skinny people had appeared out of thin air around the valley. They were shrouded in black gas.
One of them was surrounded by black aura and had a ghostly aura. He was holding a black banner that was about two feet long, and his body was faintly discernible. He was looking at them with a face full of surprise.
Mist and clouds rose in the mountains. On this Hei Tian night, four people holding black banners suddenly appeared. Their expressions were indescribably gloomy and mournful.
Peng! Gu Fei floated down from the sky with Ling Luoyan in his arms. When his feet touched the ground, there was a dull sound.
"What happened to you?" At this moment, Ling Luoyan realized that the sleeve on Gu Fei's right arm had disappeared, revealing the bronze-colored skin on his arm.
Although Gu Fei's right arm wasn't very strong, many tendons appeared at this moment. They were like tiny horned dragons coiling around his muscles, giving off a strong feeling.
It was obvious that in that short moment, Gu Fei had exchanged a blow with the ghostly cultivator who had launched a sneak attack.
Without a doubt, all the muscles on Gu Fei's body were now filled with explosive power. If he wanted to, every muscle could explode with astonishing power.
"Hmph! Sneak attack from behind, you scoundrel! " Gu Fei's gaze was like a sharp sword as he stared at the ghostly cultivator who had just attacked him. The Yuan Qi in his body began to circulate rapidly.
Only a small portion of his power was concentrated in his dantian, forming a five-colored ball of light to refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that he had absorbed through his pores. Most of Gu Fei's power was actually refined into his muscles, bones, and flesh.
Therefore, with just a thought, he could instantly launch a ferocious attack against his enemy. He didn't need to be like other cultivators, who had to spend time to cast spells or use treasures.
Although the time it took to cast spells and use treasures was actually very short, it was that short instant that allowed Gu Fei to gain the upper hand when fighting against cultivators of the same level.
The two people fighting in the valley didn't expect that there would be uninvited guests outside the valley. The young man from the Guangcheng Immortal Sect and the ghostly cultivator who was controlling the ferocious ghostly head with the Five Ghost Banner were both shocked.
When the young man from the Guangcheng Immortal Sect saw the other four ghostly cultivators holding the black banners, his expression instantly changed. With a split second of concentration, the ferocious ghostly head that was spitting out jade-green ghostly fire immediately spat out a mouthful of ghostly fire at the sword light.
"Buzz!" The sword light that was spat out by the ghostly fire seemed to have dimmed a little.
The young man was instantly shocked. The ghostly fire that the ghostly head formed from thousands of ferocious souls from the Five Ghost Banner spat out was actually able to damage the split sword. It was beyond his expectations.
"Hehe! There's a path to heaven, but you refuse to take it. The Five Ghost Banner that the five of us refined just so happens to lack three ghostly generals. We'll use the souls of the three of you to refine the banner's ghostly generals. "
The four ghostly cultivators who suddenly appeared outside the valley held ghost banners that were shrouded in black Qi and pressed towards Gu Fei and Ling Luoyan from four directions.
Gu Fei's expression was incomparably grave. He could feel a huge wave of Yin Qi from the four ghostly cultivators, especially the Five Ghost Banners in their hands. He could vaguely see ghostly shadows flickering on the banners, as if those ghosts were about to rush out from the black banners.
The aura that was emitted from the black banners made Gu Fei feel uneasy. The cultivation of these ghostly cultivators didn't seem to be weak, and with the Five Ghost Banner in their hands, the situation was very disadvantageous to Gu Fei and Ling Luoyan.
At this moment, the ghostly cultivator who was fighting with the young man from Guangcheng Immortal Sect suddenly controlled the Five Ghost Banner and retreated, abandoning the young man.
The young man waved his hand, and the sword light immediately flew back to him. It danced around his body and swept away the cold ghostly qi that was surging towards him.
Ghostly qi was something of extreme Yin and extreme cold. It could corrode the Yang Qi in a person's body. If an ordinary person were to come into contact with a trace of ghostly qi, they would either fall sick or die.
The ghostly cultivator didn't just let the young man from Guangcheng Immortal Sect go. Instead, he and the other four surrounded the three people in the valley.
The five ghostly cultivators laughed sinisterly as they waved the Five Ghost Banners in their hands at the same time. As the black banners danced, ghostly qi surged out and quickly spread out. In an instant, ghostly qi surged in all directions, and ghostly cries could be heard. The pitch-black ghostly qi sealed the entire small valley.
Five balls of pale green ghostly fire wrapped around five ghostly heads that were the size of car wheels. They emitted a terrifying and eerie aura, constantly appearing in the surging ghostly qi in the surroundings.
Their hair was disheveled, their eyes flashed with green light, and their bloody mouths were wide open with fangs intersecting. Every ghostly head looked extremely frightening, as if they were evil spirits that came out of hell.
"Brother Ling, what's wrong!" Gu Fei suddenly realized that Ling Luoyan, who he was hugging, seemed to be acting strangely. He hurriedly took a look and couldn't help but be shocked.
At this moment, Gu Fei still didn't know that Ling Luoyan was a girl, nor did he know that her original name wasn't Ling Yan. However, the young man in Gu Fei's eyes, Ling Luoyan, had actually become dizzy at this moment, as if she had lost her mind. A layer of black qi even vaguely appeared on her face.
Gu Fei knew that Ling Luoyan had been affected by the surrounding ghostly qi, and he couldn't help but become anxious. He hurriedly placed a hand on Ling Luoyan's back and sent a wave of pure Yang qi into Ling Luoyan's body.
Gu Fei had the body of a child, and the pure Yang qi on his body was incomparably pure, without a single flaw. Moreover, after cultivating the ancient body refinement technique, the blood and Qi in Gu Fei's body were extremely vigorous, and the powerful pure Yang qi on his body was the nemesis of the Extreme Yin Ghost Qi.
"Hehe! Obediently accept your death. " A deep and cold voice came from within the surging ghostly qi. It was sometimes near, and sometimes far, making it hard for people to grasp.
Gu Fei couldn't be bothered with these ghosts. After a wave of pure Yang qi entered Ling Luoyan's body, the black qi on Ling Luoyan's face was immediately dispelled, and her face regained its normal color. Gu Fei couldn't help but be delighted.
"Roar! Even if I have to destroy my Dao power today, I'm going to exterminate all of you ghosts. " The young cultivator from the Guangcheng Immortal Sect roared angrily. He actually bit the tip of his tongue and spat a mouthful of blood on the sword light.
"Weng!" A crisp sword chime soared into the sky and resounded throughout the entire valley. The sword light in front of the young man instantly shone brightly, and grew to a height of ten zhang. The young man formed a seal, and the bright sword light immediately protected the three people who were forced together in the middle.
The sword light was like a dragon, and also like a bolt of lightning, forcing the surging Extreme Yin Ghost Qi away, making it difficult for them to take another step forward.
"I am the disciple of the Guangcheng Immortal Sect, Liu Yunhe. This is a pure Yang pill, and it can dispel this kind of demonic qi. Quickly consume it!" The young cultivator from the Guangcheng Immortal Sect suddenly took out two golden elixirs and handed them to Gu Fei and Ling Luoyan.
"Many thanks. I am Gu Fei from the Taixuan Sect, and this is my friend, Ling Luoyan!" Gu Fei didn't act pretentious. After revealing his identity, he took the two elixirs from Liu Yunhe's hands.
"So you are a disciple of the Taixuan Sect. That's great." Liu Yunhe was startled, but his face was also filled with joy. The Taixuan Sect and the Guangcheng Immortal Sect were both part of the Three Great Daoist Sects, and they were of the same branch. If the two of them worked together, they might be able to break through this ghost formation.
At this time, Ling Luoyan, who had received the pure Yang qi from Gu Fei to force the Extreme Yin Ghost Qi out of her body, also woke up. After consuming the pure Yang pill, the surrounding ghost qi couldn't touch her body anymore.
As for Gu Fei, he didn't need to consume the pure Yang pill at all. His body was full of blood and Yang qi, and the Extreme Yin Ghost Qi couldn't get close to him at all.
"This, this, this … What's going on? Aiya, I was scared to death!" Ling Luoyan, who had woken up, couldn't help but scream when she saw the surging ghost qi around her. This was especially so when the huge ghost head suddenly spat out green ghost flames from the surging ghost qi and bit towards her. However, she was so scared that she almost fell to the ground.
