Chapter 67 Slaying the Ghost Messenger

field.

The disciples of Maoshan set up the Primordial Eight Trigrams Formation.

"Senior Brother, everything is arranged."

Chizuru brought people from all directions.

"Big Brother!"

Si Mu came alone; his disciple was at home watching over the house.

Master Ji also finished his preparations and came over with wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

The other fellow disciples also stepped forward. The Bagua formation had been set up and was just waiting for the wandering ghosts to be attracted.

"Yes, let's just wait quietly."

Shi Jian nodded slightly, and the other fellow disciples had also finished.

He stood there, with no intention of making a move.

Lin Fengjiao stood at one corner of the formation, holding a peach wood sword, and nervously looked ahead.

I wonder if his two incompetent disciples can complete the attraction mission.

I'm afraid something unexpected might happen again.

"Help~~"

"Master, Master, save me!"

Soon, screams of terror rang out.

Everyone looked up and saw Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai running wildly, looking back as they ran.

Behind them, a vast horde of countless wandering, unclaimed souls surged forth.

"They're here, fellow disciples, prepare to make the arrest."

Shi Jian spoke softly, offering a suggestion.

"Yes!"

The junior disciples present took out their magical artifacts one by one.

They brought out all sorts of magical artifacts, such as the Qiankun Umbrella and the Soul-Summoning Banner.

This is a show of skills and everyone is ready to demonstrate their unique abilities.

"Awwwww——"

A chilling wind blew, accompanied by the mournful howls of ghosts.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of unclaimed souls rushed up and entered the Innate Eight Trigrams Formation.

"The Eight Trigrams of the Primordial Chaos, activate the formation!"

Lin Fengjiao shouted loudly, flicked her peach wood sword, and the surrounding arrays lit up.

A giant Bagua pattern appeared in the sky, firmly enveloping the countless wandering ghosts below.

The blockade was completed in an instant.

"Grasp!"

At his command, the fellow disciples each displayed their unique skills.

Everyone worked together to capture these escaped, wandering ghosts.

Shi Jian stood there, without moving an inch.

A wild ghost ran past, but was struck by the protective lightning on his body and turned into ashes.

Bang~!

Zzz, zzz~~

Lightning flashed, and Shi Jian stood there expressionless, watching the chaotic scene before him.

Any ghost that passes by will be instantly blasted into dust by lightning, disappearing in wisps of smoke.

This means their soul has been completely annihilated.

"It's really troublesome."

Shi Jian was somewhat dissatisfied as he watched everyone collect the items without finishing.

He raised his hand and conjured a terrifying ball of lightning.

"The Five Thunder Orthodox Law is hereby pardoned!"

A loud shout rang out, followed by a thunderous explosion.

Every single ghost present was so terrified that they lay prostrate on the ground, trembling with fear.

Thunder rumbled in the sky.

The majestic power of the heavens was awe-inspiring, and the chaotic scene instantly quieted down.

"Get inside yourselves."

Shi Jian shouted, and the ghosts rushed one after another towards the Taoist priests' magical artifacts.

He crawled inside himself; it's obvious he was terrified by Shi Jian.

If you are struck by lightning, your soul will be instantly annihilated.

Under such intimidation, all the ghosts were swept away.

This left the fellow disciples completely embarrassed, speechless as they watched the ghost crawl in on its own.

"Big brother is mighty!"

Chizuru laughed heartily and praised him.

"Senior Brother is still the best."

"The ghosts were terrified."

Many of his fellow disciples flattered him, one after another.

Over there, Qiu Sheng muttered to himself, "What's so great about them? They're just a bunch of bootlickers."

"..."

Lin Fengjiao, who happened to overhear this, turned pale.

He looked at Qiu Sheng with a face full of disappointment, thinking that his apprentice was just a little stupid.

But now it seems that the problem wasn't stupidity, but rather a lack of awareness of their own problems.

As a junior, it's one thing to be disrespectful to your senior fellow disciples, but to actually speak rudely to them.

This shows a problem with one's character.

Shi Jian glanced at Lin Fengjiao, but completely ignored the two idiots.

Taoist Qianhe and Simu and others were furious.

Everyone present possessed profound cultivation and exceptional hearing; this kid's words had offended all the elders of his sect.

If it weren't for Lin Fengjiao's junior brother, they probably would have turned against each other immediately.

Despite this, no one gave them a friendly look.

They all followed Shi Jian with sullen faces.

"Sigh~" Uncle Lin Jiu said with a bitter expression.

He sighed helplessly, having made a decision in his heart.

He glanced at his apprentice, then left without a word.

"Master, wait for me."

Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, oblivious to everything else, shouted and yelled as they followed.

They had no idea how serious the situation was.

Disrespectful words and lack of respect for elders in the sect are something that no normal sect can tolerate.

Because regardless of the sect, it is a very serious issue if a disciple disrespects the sect's elders.

To cultivate the Tao, one must first cultivate the mind; to practice spiritual cultivation, one must first learn to be a good person.

You don't even know how to be a decent human being, so what are you talking about spiritual cultivation for?

The group returned to the mortuary.

Shi Jian sat upright in the main seat, his expression cold and stern, exuding an aura of power.

Everyone held their breath.

"Now the problem of the ghosts is solved."

Shi Jian slowly opened his mouth and continued, "This matter has not had a major impact on Maoshan, but it still has some influence."

"The next most important task is to deal with the people behind the scenes."

The important figures below naturally need to be dealt with by the founders of the sect.

All he needs to do is take on the main responsibility in the human world, eliminate the enemies targeting Maoshan, and maintain Maoshan's reputation.

"Senior Brother, shall we summon the ghost messengers now?"

Lin Fengjiao asked with a serious expression, cupping her hands in greeting.

Shi Jian nodded: "That's right. Summon the ghost messengers first. I want to interrogate them personally. How dare they plot against Maoshan? They're tired of living."

"No matter who it is, they will have to pay the price."

This confidence comes from our mentor's school.

The patriarch said, kill those who deserve to be killed, and take the benefits that are due.

The gist is the same: fight to the bitter end.

"Okay, I'll call it then."

Lin Fengjiao nodded and took a deep breath.

Next, he prepared to cast a spell to summon the four ghost messengers.

"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits—"

He held a peach wood sword and cast a summoning spell.

As you step onto the ground, a surge of earth energy is stirred.

Buzz~~!

The next second, a chilling wind swept through the area.

A huge black vortex appeared on the ground.

A large amount of cold wind blew out from inside, but since everyone present was a Taoist priest, they didn't care about the small scene at all.

Some of the Taoist disciples looked serious and were ready for battle.

Swish~!

Soon, the vortex disappeared.

Four figures, two in black and two in white, appeared in the hall.

As soon as the four ghost messengers appeared, their bodies trembled violently, and their hearts tightened when they saw the large group of Maoshan Taoist priests present.

"Woo-"

The leader, a black-clad ghost guard, uttered incoherent gibberish.

Lin Fengjiao looked at her senior brother hesitantly.

Shi Jian snorted coldly, "Now that you've come to the human world, you should speak like a human."

"Ok?"

The four ghost messengers glared angrily at Shi Jian.

"You Taoist priest from Maoshan, don't go too far."

The ghost messenger spoke angrily.

"Excessive?"

Shi Jian laughed, his body crackling with lightning.

"Today I will show you what truly constitutes going too far."

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning erupted from his body.

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky.

Boom!

The black-clad ghost was struck by lightning, and his entire body fell to the ground, hissing and smoking.

The scene fell silent after the attack.

The other three ghost messengers stared at Shi Jian in shock and disbelief.

The ghost messengers never expected that someone would dare to attack them.

"How dare you attack a ghost messenger?"

The other ghost messengers were furious and woke up to shout at them.

"Noisy!"

Shi Jian glanced around, and lightning bolts shot towards the ghost messenger who had spoken.
