Chapter 63

~9 min read 1,649 words

The location in Luohe City where the Lin Family Bookstore originally stood was now enveloped by thick smoke, and this smoke had a tendency to spread to the surroundings.

And the root cause of all this was the Incense Temple Ancestor who was about to lose control!

Listening to the urging of Old Zheng beside her, Li Yanbing immediately made a decision in her heart.

A person capable of possessing a Ghost Body Dharma Image was definitely at the level of a Supreme Human.

Although she didn't know why the other party had come to Luohe City, if the other party lost control, the fate of the entire Luohe City would likely be extremely tragic.

Gritting her teeth, Li Yanbing took out a small wooden puppet and then said:

"Senior, a sudden mutation has occurred in Luohe City, I hope you can take action to save us!"

Fearing that she hadn't made herself clear enough, after saying this, Li Yanbing added:

"A Ghost Body Dharma Image has appeared in the city for no reason and is currently extremely manic; I hope you can take action in time!"

……

In the Shadow World, Lin Feng, who had been watching, suddenly received the message sent by Li Yanbing.

This immediately plunged him into silence. To be honest, he really hadn't expected that just going to deal with a paper-folding master would end up attracting such an enemy.

"Could it be that they were targeting me all along?"

When things are too coincidental, one should suspect whether it is truly a coincidence.

Lin Feng carefully recalled his previous encounter; that suddenly appearing figure was clearly targeting him specifically, otherwise it wouldn't have called him "one who brings chaos to the world."

Coupled with the fact that the thick smoke was similar to what he had encountered in Changshou Town last time, these things vaguely linked the cause and effect together for him.

That's right, it was highly likely that the other party was specifically targeting him!

It was just that he had stumbled upon it and broken their plan by using his avatar in advance. For a moment, he couldn't even tell whether this operation was good or bad.

"Hehe, then I'd like to see what kind of demons and monsters are behind this!"

Taking action meant inevitably clashing with that ghostly figure, which carried the risk of potential failure.

But not taking action meant his avatar, the paper-folding master's corpse, and the related inheritance would all be lost.

This would not only make his efforts tonight go to waste, but he would also lose his avatar and the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, which was something he could not tolerate.

Moreover, there was now Li Yanbing's request, which directly gave him the answer in his heart.

Just as Lin Feng was weighing the pros and cons, the thick smoke in Luohe City spread rapidly; the Five Ancestors, having been tricked by Lin Feng, no longer wanted to wait.

His goal was to annihilate the person capable of erasing a ghost body; the existence of such a person was the greatest threat to them!

So he chose the most direct and violent method, which was to destroy to his heart's content; as long as the commotion was big enough, he could force that person out!

At the same time, outside the city on the Luo River, a small fishing boat slowly approached the Luohe City wharf with a "creak, creak" sound.

The Tattoo Sect's Grandmaster, Mistress, and Yingzi had finally arrived in Luohe City from Lingjiang after nearly a day of trekking.

"Whoa, what a big formation; this Luohe City is indeed different from other places!"

Standing at the bow of the boat, the Grandmaster leaned on his cane and looked toward the direction of Luohe City, suddenly blurting out this sentence.

"Hehe, I smelled the incense of those dead ghosts from the Incense Temple from far away. How come this bunch of dead ghosts is willing to crawl out of that dog hole?"

Beside him, the Mistress, who was missing several teeth, cursed with a face full of disgust; clearly, she had no good feelings toward the Incense Temple at all.

"Grandmaster, Mistress, is that ghost-like figure the Ancestor of the Incense Temple?"

Yingzi, who was pretty and cute, also widened her eyes and peered toward the city. Of course, under normal circumstances, ordinary people could not possibly see the situation inside through the city walls.

But these three were clearly not ordinary people; at this moment, a city wall was simply no obstacle to them.

"Yingzi, in the future, when a girl goes out and meets people from the Incense Temple, you must stay far away; these people are even crazier than our Ancestral God portraits!"

"Hehe, they say they are living ghosts, but in reality, whether they are human or ghost, I'm afraid even they themselves can't tell clearly."

Hearing Yingzi's inquiry, the Mistress immediately gave her solemn instructions.

"Mistress, I have noted it down."

Hearing this, Yingzi nodded immediately; she had always been intelligent and understood the principle that not listening to the elderly leads to suffering.

Just as the three were talking, a green and red flame instantly fell from outside the city into the city, and then the surging ghost fire directly covered the entire sky over Luohe City.

At the same time, an unruly figure also appeared in the air, stepping on the flames, which immediately caused the surrounding onlookers to cast their gazes toward it.

"Grandmaster, Mistress, is, is this that Supreme Human senior?"

Yingzi's eyes widened as she looked at the figure of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, who was wreathed in ghost fire, and then she asked the two people beside her, stuttering slightly.

"Hmph, Old Six did not die in vain!"

The Grandmaster did not answer her question but said this with a dark face.

As for the Mistress beside him, her expression kept changing as she looked at the ghost fire filling the sky and the figure confronting the Incense Temple Ancestor, not knowing what she was thinking.

Inside the city, the moment Lin Feng appeared, he instantly began a ghostly confrontation with the Incense Temple Five Ancestors.

Beside him, the Embroidery Ghost, Puppet Ghost, and Gluttonous Ghost also appeared one after another.

These three ghosts now all had strength reaching the Fierce Ghost level, which was no longer weak, and as helpers, they could provide him with no small amount of assistance.

This time, for Lin Feng, whether he could take down this Ghost Body Dharma Image was not the point, because in terms of strength, he did not have absolute confidence that he could defeat the opponent.

But the suppressed avatar, the paper-folding master's corpse, and those few people he saw at the time who seemed to know the inside story must be obtained!

"Boom~"

As Lin Feng appeared, the originally furious Incense Temple Five Ancestors instantly attacked him.

A large amount of thick smoke transformed and formed all sorts of things; inside the smoke were also dried corpses that were either kowtowing, closing their eyes in praise, or holding incense candles.

These dried corpses wore clothes that were clearly not from the same period; the styles of these clothes looked like those of the previous dynasty, some like those from decades ago, and others like current styles.

All the dried corpses had skin that presented a waxy yellow color, and this layer of skin was tightly stuck to the bones, looking exactly like air-dried salted chicken.

But what was ghostly was that these dried corpses actually gave people a feeling of being alive; at this moment, they could not only open their mouths to make sounds but also move.

Accompanied by the spreading smoke, these dried corpses also spread toward the surroundings like fierce ghosts walking out of purgatory!

The Ghost Domain composed of thick smoke and dried corpses surged toward Lin Feng instantly. Facing these things, Lin Feng also immediately urged his ghost fire.

The next moment, a sea of green and red fire in the sky flowed down directly from the sky, forming an exaggerated waterfall of fire in front of Lin Feng, sweeping crazily toward the opponent's Ghost Domain!

The moment the ghost fire, which specifically burned ghosts and living beings, collided with those dried corpses, it was like fire meeting dry wood; instantly, a large number of dried corpses were set ablaze by the ghost fire.

"Crackle, crackle~"

Inside the bodies of these dried corpses, which had existed for who knows how long, strings of green and red flames began to emerge, and they even made cracking sounds like ordinary firewood.

"Respect the Incense Superior, serve the incense to achieve the Dao, eat Qi and not die, forever without disaster or calamity!"

"Respect the Incense Superior, serve the incense to achieve the Dao, eat Qi and not die, forever without disaster or calamity!"

"Respect the Incense Superior……"

Yet, even so, these dried corpses still stared with empty eye sockets, continuously spitting out ghostly chants from their mouths, as if they were praying to a god.

Hundreds and thousands of ignited dried corpses allowed the ghost fire to continuously erode the opponent's Ghost Domain, while also illuminating the scene within the Ghost Domain.

This allowed Lin Feng to see the huge and twisted appearance of the Incense Temple Five Ancestors.

The opponent was about ten meters tall, with a huge body, and appeared somewhat ethereal and stiff.

Standing there, it didn't look like a human or a ghost, but rather more like a clay statue in a temple.

Black face, white eyes, fangs, wearing black mourning clothes, and emitting astonishing death energy from head to toe.

It is worth mentioning the scene painted on the opponent's mourning clothes: it was a scene of all living beings on a desperate land continuously kowtowing toward some unknown statue.
