Just as Li Mu had guessed, this ghost's realm had not reached the Spirit Realm, so there was no need for him to hide.
When the little female ghost saw Li Mu, she said in shock, "Immortal Master!"
A ghost claw had already grown out of the broken arm of the evil ghost. The ghost stared at Li Mu and said coldly, "Human cultivator!"
It was rather afraid of Baiyi in Li Mu's hand. It glanced at the ghosts in the cave and said sternly, "Kill him and leave his soul behind!"
After receiving the order from the evil ghost, other than the two female ghosts, the other ten ghosts in the cave swarmed towards Li Mu.
With a thought from Li Mu, Baiyi flew out again. These ghosts who were only at the Resentful Spirit Realm were pierced through by Baiyi. Their spiritual bodies directly collapsed. When they gathered together again, they were already more than half illusory. None of them dared to charge forward again.
When the evil ghost saw this, it roared and pounced towards Li Mu with two steel forks in its hands.
Li Mu raised his sword to meet it. The sound of weapons colliding could be heard in the cave. The steel forks were filled with ghostly Qi. It was obvious that they were not ordinary weapons. However, the evil ghost did not have any method to fight. From time to time, it would be slashed by Li Mu. Although its cultivation was high and could recover quickly, it was still angry to the point of shouting.
At this moment, Li Mu knew that Li Qing had put in a lot of effort for him.
In a battle of the Lower Three Realms, the depth of one's cultivation or magic power was not the decisive factor for victory. Although the evil ghost's cultivation was high, it could not gain any advantage at this moment.
The evil spirit was no match for Li Mu in close combat, so its body simply exploded, forming an extremely dense ghostly fog, which instantly filled the entire cave.
Li Mu stood in place without moving. He knew that the ghost was hiding in the black fog, waiting to give him a fatal blow.
His lips moved slightly, and his body emitted a dazzling golden light, repelling the black fog three meters away.
"So it's a monk!"
The evil spirit screamed in fear. It seemed to realize that Li Mu was not someone to be trifled with. It shouted in the fog, "Monk, listen to me. I am a ghost general under the command of Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. Take this man away and we will mind our own business. How about that?"
The evil spirit's voice exposed his position. As soon as he finished speaking, a thunderclap exploded from the direction of his voice.
After the drastic increase in his mana, Li Mu's usage of the Thunder Technique had already reached the stage where he could determine the location by listening to sound.
He said angrily, "You're the monk. Your whole family are monks!"
After the lightning, the black fog dissipated. The evil spirit lay paralyzed on the ground, its aura extremely weak.
Li Mu was slightly surprised in his heart. That bolt of lightning had clearly struck him, but it didn't cause his soul to scatter. This evil ghost could be considered to have some ability …
However, it didn't matter. It was just a matter of adding another bolt of lightning.
He held his sword and walked in the direction of the evil spirit.
The evil spirit's face was filled with shock. It shouted, "I am under the command of Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. If you dare to kill me, Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon will not let you off!"
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning fell and landed on the evil spirit's body.
He didn't even have time to scream before his ghost body directly collapsed.
The king's soul was scattered by the sudden intrusion of a human cultivator. The remaining dozen or so ghosts in the cave were frightened and fled in all directions.
Under Li Mu's Heaven's Eye, these ghosts all carried resentment and evil aura. At a glance, it was obvious that they were not good ghosts. Li Mu's hand seal did not dissipate. Lightning flashed in the cave. Soon, the dozen or so wraiths here disappeared from his eyes. In the cave, there was only a large amount of soul power left.
The two female ghosts hugged each other tightly and trembled.
Li Mu withdrew his hand seal and put Baiyi back into the scabbard. Looking at the two female ghosts, he said, "So it was this evil spirit who ordered you …"
The little female ghost's body trembled uncontrollably. She said in a trembling voice, "Immortal, Immortal Master …"
"Don't be afraid. You haven't harmed anyone. I won't kill you." Li Mu waved his hand and asked, "How did you work for this ghost?"
Seeing that Li Mu had no intention of killing them, the big female ghost was slightly relieved. She said, "Benefactor, we were originally lonely souls in this mountain. We were kidnapped by this evil spirit and were asked to absorb the Yang Qi of mortals for cultivation. Thank you for killing this evil spirit and freeing us …"
Li Mu nodded. Thinking of the evil spirit's words before it died, he asked, "Who is Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon?"
The big female ghost shook her head and said, "We only know that this evil spirit claimed to be the 18th Ghost General under Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. We don't know who Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon is …"
"The 18th Ghost General …"
This Ghost General was actually not weak. If it wasn't for Li Mu, it would be difficult for ordinary cultivators in the Soul Condensing Realm or the Soul Condensing Realm to deal with it without special means.
Such a powerful ghost was only ranked 18th …
This Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon was at least in the Middle Realm. Whether he was a human, a ghost, or a demon, Li Mu was no match for him.
Li Mu put this matter aside for now. He collected the remnant soul energy of these ghosts and said to the two female ghosts, "Go and find a place to cultivate quietly. Don't absorb the Yang Qi of mortals. If other cultivators see you next time, they won't let you go so easily."
The big female ghost was grateful and promised, "We swear to Immortal Master that we won't harm anyone again."
The little female ghost looked up and asked, "Sister, where else can we go? I'm afraid we'll be caught again …"
Li Mu looked at the two female ghosts. It was indeed difficult for these lonely souls to survive.
Righteous cultivators wanted to get rid of them.
Heretical Cultivation and Demonic Cultivators would capture them to refine magic tools.
Even the more powerful ones wanted to devour them to improve their cultivation.
These two female ghosts had good natures, but their strength was not high. If they were left to wander around, they would not have a good ending.
Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "If you don't have a place to go, I can recommend a place for you."
This young immortal master didn't kill them, so he definitely wouldn't harm them. The big female ghost was delighted. She quickly pulled the little female ghost and kowtowed to Li Mu, saying, "Thank you, Immortal Master. Thank you …"
Li Mu said, "From here, follow the official road and go east. You should be able to reach Yangqiu County before dawn. When you arrive, go to the Bay of Clearwater and find a girl called Su He. Tell her that Li Mu told you to find her …"
Thinking that Su He might not have come out of seclusion yet, Li Mu added, "That place is very safe. When you get there, if she doesn't appear, you just have to wait patiently. She will take the initiative to find you."
Su He was alone … alone in the Bay of Clearwater. She was empty and lonely. Before, there was a snake accompanying her. After Bai Yinxin left, there was no one to talk to her. She had complained many times that Li Mu did not visit her enough.
Li Mu sent the two ghosts over. They were both ghosts. Su He could have a companion and the two ghosts could have a backer. They would not become lonely souls. It was the best of both worlds.
The big female ghost thought for a moment and kowtowed to Li Mu. She said gratefully, "Thank you, Immortal Master. We will go now."
Even if they were to hide in the deep mountains or forests, there was still a chance that they would be discovered by powerful demonic ghosts.
She did not know what would happen after reaching the Bay of Clearwater, but it was definitely better than wandering outside.
After the two female ghosts thanked Li Mu, they floated away.
Li Mu walked to the side of the young man on the ground. He leaned over and pushed his shoulder, saying, "Wake up."
The young man's eyebrows twitched. His face suddenly revealed a frightened expression. He shouted, "Ghosts, there are ghosts …"
Li Mu said indifferently, "Those evil ghosts have been killed by me. You can go home."
The young man looked around in fear. Sure enough, he found that those terrifying ghosts in the cave had disappeared.
In front of him stood a young man.
He had a handsome face and held a long sword in his hand. He was wearing a bailiff uniform, which gave him a great sense of security. His heart gradually calmed down.
He looked at Li Mu and asked in a low voice, "Was it you who saved me?"
Li Mu said, "Fortunately, I was free tonight. Otherwise, you would have been eaten by those evil ghosts …"
He slowly walked out of the cave. The young man crawled up from the ground and followed behind him.
Li Mu walked out of the cave and asked, "Where do you live?"
It was the middle of the night. If he let the young man go back alone and met some evil ghosts on the way, Li Mu's efforts would be in vain.
The young man said, "I live in the county town."
"County town?" Li Mu did not expect such a coincidence. He grabbed the young man's shoulder and said, "Then come with me. I will take you back tomorrow."
The young man's body rose into the air. Li Mu carried him in the direction of the inn.
On the way back to the inn, Li Mu could not help but sigh. A few months ago, he was also grabbed by Li Qing.
At that time, a small vengeful spirit could take his life.
Now, he could kill a third level evil ghost all by himself. He could truly hold his own.
