Chapter 43: Fusing the Shadow Ghost
Night fell, and Lin Feng, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
During the day, he had buried the corpse of a Silver-badge Divine Catcher of the Ghost Suppression Division. At that time, because there were many people and eyes, he didn't have time to check the harvest.
Now that it was late at night, it was a good time. After getting up, Lin Feng looked at Wangcai, who was lying at the foot of his bed and looking up at him, and smiled slightly.
This dog had clearly become more sensitive after two marrow-cleansing and hair-cutting sessions with internal energy. It could detect any disturbance in the surroundings at the first time.
"Don't bark, lie down obediently!"
Tapping its head lightly, Lin Feng then opened the window and jumped out of the wooden house.
It was late autumn, and the night was as cool as water. In addition, there had been a long-term drought, so the sky was as clean as a lake.
Lin Feng crossed the graveyard and came to an open space, then opened the *Corpse-Planting and Ghost-Raising Scripture* and found the page of the ghost he had harvested most recently.
"Shadow Ghost, the strength is almost at the level of a Big Ghost, but it is not complete itself."
This page had a blurry shadow, which was the ghost Lin Feng had obtained from the Divine Catcher who died during the day.
After a little hesitation, the Xi Gui appeared on his body, then turned into the image of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Immediately after, the ghost in the image of a shadow appeared quietly in front of him.
Now the strength of the Xi Gui had reached the level of a Fierce Ghost. Facing the Shadow Ghost, it could suppress it at will with a backhand.
"It feels like it's not as difficult to control as the Blood Ghost. But for the sake of safety, it's better to sacrifice it directly!"
The Shadow Ghost itself was not complete, so even though it had recovered, the power of resistance was not strong.
However, Lin Feng didn't like to leave any hidden dangers for himself. After a little hesitation, raging flames surged on the Great Sage Equaling Heaven and directly shrouded the Shadow Ghost.
At the same time, a ghost object dagger appeared in his hand. This was exactly the one the Ghost Suppression Division gave him.
This dagger was not very good as a weapon, but there was no problem using it to dismember and divide ghost objects.
Under the powerful suppression of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Shadow Ghost quickly fell into a state of silence, then turned into an incomplete shadow, and then was directly dismembered and divided by Lin Feng.
Then, Lin Feng began to perform the sacrificial ritual. The object of this sacrifice was no longer the Xi Gui, but the Tou Gui, whose strength was gradually falling behind.
If its ability and the Shadow Ghost were combined, it would undoubtedly be able to become more terrifying and elusive!
Soon, three sticks of incense were burned, and the Shadow Ghost also slowly fused with the Tou Gui.
A blurry shadow slowly appeared under the feet of the Tou Gui. The shape of this shadow was somewhat similar to the Tou Gui, also holding a needle and thread.
"Try the range of ability!"
Immediately after, Lin Feng started the Tou Gui to take action. Blood-colored threads still spread in all directions as they had in the past.
At the same time, large patches of shadows were also extending under the feet of the Tou Gui. Not long after, the sky was covered by blood-colored threads, and the ground was shrouded in shadows.
The "Heavenly Net" was officially formed, but this was not all the ability. As Lin Feng's thoughts moved, he and the Tou Gui disappeared from the spot at the same time.
When they appeared again, they had already arrived in a pitch-black space. This space was the Shadow World!
"Sure enough, at that time in the Ghost Domain of the Starving Ghost, those people from the Ghost Suppression Division relied on this kind of means to avoid the pursuit of the Starving Ghost!"
Lin Feng, who had read the memory of the corpse's life, naturally knew the use of the Shadow Ghost, and also knew that besides this Divine Catcher, Su Xiao also mastered part of the ghostly power of the Shadow Ghost.
"In the future, when the Tou Gui uses its power again, it won't just be a matter of using blood threads to bind and block. Even simple threads, if used well, can become the best weapon!"
"And the Shadow Ghost just gave her such a foundation. Wherever there is a shadow, blood threads can be shot out at any time, and the ghosts and people bound can be dragged into the shadow to be imprisoned."
"Combined with the power of the Blood Ghost, ordinary Big Ghosts should not be able to make any waves..."
As Lin Feng returned to the original position, the Ghost Domain of the Tou Gui gradually dissipated, and everything around returned to its original state.
"Phew~ If I sacrifice one more time, the Tou Gui should be able to become a Fierce Ghost!"
The Xi Gui on Lin Feng's body gradually faded, and then Lin Feng planned to return to the wooden house to rest.
But at this moment, he suddenly stopped his footsteps, because the wooden men he buried on Mount Qianyuan in Xinglong Ridge were alarmed.
On the other side, on Mount Qianyuan in Xinglong Ridge, the unlucky Silver-badge Divine Catcher Li Songcheng was caught as a strong man again.
"Senior, Silver-badge Divine Catcher Li Songcheng of the Ghost Suppression Division has come to pay a visit, please show yourself!"
At this time, Li Songcheng bowed respectfully to the top of the mountain, and behind him, the Divine Catchers from the capital who had also come this time made the same action.
They had come to win over Lin Feng this time, so if their attitude was not respectful, it would be hard to justify.
Li Songcheng shouted loudly, but the surroundings remained cold and quiet. However, he knew that the senior must have already known.
"Senior, people from the capital's Ghost Suppression Division have also come to pay a visit, please show yourself!"
Then, he changed his words and shouted loudly at the top of the mountain again.
"Click-clack"
Suddenly, the soil mound on the top of the mountain turned over, and a wooden man painted with red lacquer stood up slowly from the mud.
Then, it walked directly toward these people. Seeing Lin Feng coming, these people bowed and saluted him again.
"Senior, this is Gold-badge Divine Catcher Li Yanbing from the capital, and the other three are Silver-badge Divine Catchers also from the capital. They came here specifically to pay a visit to Senior!"
Before Lin Feng could make any move, Li Songcheng had already introduced the others. These people were exactly the ones Lin Feng had seen during the day.
"Click-clack"
The wooden man turned his head to look at them, then nodded slowly, indicating that he understood their identities.
"Junior Li Yanbing pays respects to Senior!"
Then, Li Yanbing came directly to the wooden man and saluted him again, then said to him:
"Senior, the situation in Luohe City is complex now, with evil people both inside and outside. This time, besides taking over from Master Su to preside over the overall situation, my most important task is to investigate the rebellion in the surrounding prefectures!"
"This matter is of great importance. If Luohe City is occupied by the rebel army, it will completely march into the Central Plains next..."
Li Yanbing's voice was cold and clear, and her words were clear. Adding her heroic spirit, calling her a heroine would not be an exaggeration.
But unfortunately, Lin Feng couldn't raise any interest in these things. Before she finished speaking, he shook his head directly.
"Click-clack"
This left the Divine Catchers around speechless. Although they had psychological preparation, the moment they saw the wooden man shake his head, they still couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"May I ask Senior, how can we help us?"
Li Yanbing was not discouraged, but continued to ask Lin Feng.
"..."
Lin Feng habitually pondered. The Ghost Suppression Division was by no means just the few small cats and dogs he saw in Luohe City; there were many old guys hidden behind it.
At the same time, it was a special organization belonging to the Great Xia Dynasty, and the resources and information it mastered were also unusually huge.
Lin Feng did have many things he wanted to get his hands on, such as a large amount of Ghost-Raising Incense, coffins made of hundred-year-old sinking yin wood, dragon vein grave soil, and so on. ===== CHAPTER 44 =====
