Chapter 190: Take It

Moreover, Jiang Yu also didn't know the opportunity, and just missed the chance to meet with Master Lin.

She reached out and pressed toward the talisman book: "Don't jump anymore, my eyes are blurred."

Like this, let go of me, I'll take out all the newly obtained things; if you want to take one, take it.

The Primordial Chaos Talisman, hearing this, finally agreed to stop, then it wrapped Jiang Yu's soul and flew out of her sea of consciousness.

"I'm going! What the hell? Hurry back!" Jiang Tu jumped in fright, and actually leapt to the height of the talisman book, saying, "Letting a Foundation Establishment cultivator's soul exit the body is deadly."

But it also didn't dare to push it away, only able to persuade: "Jiang Yu?"

Jiang Yu was also a bit dazed; she never expected the Primordial Chaos Talisman to be so eager—this treasure whose intelligence is about to mature is truly overwhelming.

She quickly made a hand seal and returned to her sea of consciousness; the Primordial Chaos Talisman wobbled after her, not understanding why it had changed its mind after just agreeing.

Don't think Jiang Yu's soul exiting the body lasts just a moment or two; the scent of her fresh soul immediately attracted the ghost cultivators beneath the mountain.

"So many ghost cultivators? And there are foolishly flying ones—Jiang Yu, come out and exterminate them." Jiang Tu intended to put them into the formation to capture their soul pearls.

After Jiang Yu slowly opened her eyes, she was also startled by the ghost cultivators spinning outside the formation: "There are actually over a hundred of them."

It seems off; half of them lack consciousness—they aren't ghost cultivators, but yin ghosts from the soul banner.

"Is there a soul banner buried beneath the slope?!" Jiang Tu then looked closely and indeed discovered the difference.

Actually, the yin ghosts nurtured within the soul banner are also a kind of ghost cultivator, except they have become slave-like existences, obeying only the banner master's commands.

"Should we kill them?" Jiang Tu exhaled a burst of spiritual fire, ready at any moment to guide the ghosts to ascend.

While Jiang Yu was still thinking, the Primordial Chaos Talisman flew out again, smacking her awake with a 'pa' sound: "For now, don't worry about it; first calm the talisman book, then we'll talk."

All the treasures beside her are mighty beings, each stronger than her; I don't know to what level of cultivation the God Transformation Star Lord has recovered.

Upon hearing about feeding treasures to the talisman book, Jiang Tu hurriedly said: "Put it inside the Dragon Pearl, lest we attract anyone else."

"A bunch of ghosts is already troublesome," he said, "open the formation and let those ghosts come in to be dealt with."

"For a moment I feel reluctant." Since entering the cultivation world, Jiang Yu has killed the most demonic beasts, and deep down she feels a little pity for the yin ghosts.

After all, having their souls taken is not their will, and they must also be tormented by the soul banner master with high-pressure methods.

"They can advance, but they certainly haven't killed few people."

"If you walk out now, believe it or not, you'll be surrounded immediately." Jiang Tu complained, "Don't misplace your kindness—annihilating them is truly saving them from fire and water."

Having said that, he took all her storage tools and brought the talisman book into the Dragon Pearl's space.

Jiang Yu pondered Jiang Tu's words for a long time before sending him a mental message: "You're right."

But just as her thoughts were settling here, the ground hundreds of zhang deep suddenly trembled.

In no time, a male and female Foundation Establishment cultivator burst out from the ground.

Seeing the female cultivator holding a soul banner to reel in the yin ghosts, she said, "Junior Brother Ye, this underground place is a natural gathering of yin."

"I think staying two more days would be more beneficial for upgrading the soul banner."

"There are plenty of chances to upgrade, but exploring secret realms for treasure isn't guaranteed."

"You've claimed this treasure as your own, while I still don't have a natal magic treasure to use." Ye Lin gave her a dissatisfied glance.

He added, "Don't forget, that senior instructed us to quickly seek out the Tai Ji Dian to rendezvous."

"This time we must enter the cave; relying entirely on the senior's help without giving anything in return is unacceptable."

"Fine." The female cultivator appeared compliant, but in her heart she had already cursed Ye Lin for relying on his connections to bully others, wondering how she could have been momentarily bewitched and left the sect's spirit mine with him.

Nowadays, wanting to go back again is also increasingly difficult.

Jiang Yu had already withdrawn her gaze here; only after the two flew far away did she mutter, "The missing Junior Sister Bai and Ye Lin from the mine—this world is really small."

Before her words had finished, another person burst up from the ground; Jiang Yu felt greatly relieved that it wasn't emerging beneath her own grand formation.

Judging by the result, those people might not have seen her earlier, or perhaps they were too deep underground for their divine sense to reach.

So, is the Ghost Realm tightly connected to this place?

"This person also looks somewhat familiar." She didn't stare long; the cultivator sharply glanced toward the formation.

However, as he hurriedly walked up to the formation, although he saw nothing abnormal, he stopped in his tracks and swiftly turned, flying away on his sword.

It was nothing else—Jiang Tu had leapt out of the Dragon Pearl, staring fixedly at the cultivator, saying, "You look like someone whose portrait I have."

"Yes, when I entered the Azure Mountain Secret Realm years ago, I saw him; he held Creation Divine Mud in his hand, and he seems to bear the surname Fu."

"Back then he fell out with Tu Zhao and became enemies." To this day, the Tu Zhao of the Union of Bliss Sect that Jiang Yu once captured is still imprisoned in the Grand Void Sect's law enforcement jail.

Jiang Tu didn't care about this person, saying, "Before, it was Ye Lin and Junior Sister Bai; they weren't afraid of encountering Grand Void Sect disciples, got caught and sent to serve their sentence."

"Strange, those two were so lucky, both obtained a Tai Ji Fish Token."

"Perhaps they shared a single fish token."

"Junior Sister Bai's sentence is quite short; why would she flee the spirit mine together with Ye Lin?" Jiang Yu felt a bit regretful, thinking she should have acted earlier to weaken the soul banner's yin ghosts.

Relying on the Yellow Spring Grand Formation, it could easily trap the two, yet she was too soft-hearted: "What did the Primordial Chaos Talisman take? Why is there no reaction at all?"

Jiang Yu took over the storage tools and gently stroked the unmoving talisman book.

Jiang Tu was immediately brought back to his senses; he patted the talisman book and said, "It's not that I caught it quickly—it almost finished absorbing the soul pearl."

Jiang Yu stored the talisman book back into her sea of consciousness, saying, "Just use it as needed; later I'll see who enters the Ghost Realm and exchange some soul pearls with everyone."

This item can help elder brother speed up the repair of his soul, allowing an early rebirth in the cycle of reincarnation.

"We should also hurry and find Master Qian." Jiang Yu didn't know how to address him, so she called him by his cultivation level.

The two withdrew from the formation, chose their positions, and fled; this barren stretch of land once again returned to calm.

Then, the direction Jiang Yu flew toward was neither the bamboo lodge nor Ye Lin's side; she chose her path again based on the spirit stones.

Not long after she left, the Fu-surname cultivator who had previously flown away suddenly returned from a distance.

Seeing him sweep his divine sense over the surroundings, confirming the formation was gone, he lightly raised his right hand, revealing a faint ring on his middle finger, saying, "Master, the formation has been dispelled; I will now re-enter the mountains to seek the entrance to the Ghost Realm."

A voice came from within the ring: "No need; go west to pursue the female cultivator who set the formation—she was sent out by a Great Roc Monster Soul, so she surely knows where the entrance is."

"Master, you already have this intention; why not let the disciple directly come to knock on that fellow Daoist's formation?" The Fu-surname cultivator's divine sense is limited; when underground he must focus on finding the path, and thus did not see the scene of a spatial rift throwing a person.

His master laughed and said: "Don't pretend to be foolish in front of your teacher; you want others to discover that you can easily find a high-level concealment formation?"

"It turns out the master did all this for me; the disciple will certainly wholeheartedly reshape your fleshly body for you." The Fu-surname cultivator showed not a trace of embarrassment from being exposed.

But after he had chased for a hundred li, he discovered that the person flying on a sword ahead was actually Jiang Yu, who had saved him before: "Master, is it her?"

"Yes, you know her." His master spoke in an affirmative tone.

And Jiang Tu ahead also noticed his traces: "The Fu-surname cultivator behind seems to be chasing after you."
