Chapter 873 The Little Nun Going Down the Mountain 15
Ah Cai's mood gradually calmed down, but her sharp eyes did not relax at all.
She closed her eyes lightly, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and whispered Taoist mantras, as if she was having a conversation with heaven and earth.
The profound method of introspection is like an invisible bond, closely connecting her to the chaos around her.
In a moment, a hazy picture emerged from the depths of her consciousness: in the netherworld beneath the post station, an ancient altar that had been covered in dust for a long time stood quietly.
The runes carved on the altar are mysterious and bizarre, and countless souls of resentful ghosts are floating around. They are bound by invisible chains and cannot escape. The resentment accumulated over time is like a dark cloud, turning this place into a gloomy and evil place.
Ah Cai suddenly opened her eyes and quickly took out a yellowed sheepskin scroll from her bag. On the scroll, complex array patterns were interwoven, and the legendary "Nine-Turn Ghost Killing Array" in the "Secret Record of Suppressing Ghosts" was prominently displayed.
This formation requires nine ghost-suppressing talismans as the core of the formation, supplemented by the power of the five elements, in order to dispel the evil spirits and leave no place for evil spirits to hide.
She spread the scroll flat on the table and lightly tapped it with her fingertips. Nine ghost-suppressing talismans flew out from the scroll as if summoned, and hovered in the air like stars.
She formed seals with her hands and chanted incantations like a stream. Nine talismans then fell in sequence and embedded themselves precisely into the formations on the floor.
Then, she took out the five-colored spirit stones and placed them steadily on the five sides of the formation. The power of the five elements suddenly surged, and the power of the formation soared.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe borrows magic, the nine turns suppress ghosts, and eliminate evil spirits!" Ah Cai shouted softly, and suddenly put his hands together. Nine talismans rang out at the same time, and five-colored spiritual light shone.
In an instant, the entire room was enveloped by a sense of righteousness, and the evil energy melted like ice and snow, gradually dissipating into nothingness.
She quickly moved to the window, opened it and looked at the moon, and the night wind blew in her face with a chill.
Her eyes were like lightning, scanning the deep land in the backyard of the inn, as if she wanted to penetrate the surface and find the altar hidden in the darkness.
At this moment, a chilling and sinister aura rose from the ground, as if some ancient evil was awakening.
A Cai quickly turned around and took out a bronze bell from the space talisman. The body of the bell was engraved with Taoist runes. It was the "Soul-Calming Bell" that had been passed down in Xu Ming Temple for thousands of years.
She held the bell tightly and shook it gently. The crisp sound echoed in the night sky, like an invisible barrier, dispelling the approaching evil spirit.
She sneered, her eyes revealing a hint of contempt: "A mere Yinsha dares to be so rampant?"
Then, she held the peach wood sword in her hand and slowly pushed open the door. The corridor was dead silent, as if the movement just now was just an illusion.
However, Ah Cai felt that an even more powerful negative energy was gathering from all directions and approaching quietly.
She gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, her eyes as sharp as an eagle's, as if she had already seen through the strange secrets deep in the darkness.
There was a hint of sternness in the whisper: "Come on, let me see what you are capable of."
At this moment, Tong Jiayuan and others suddenly appeared, with a hint of ridicule in their tone: "Are you catching ghosts? You even used the [Ten Thousand Years Peach Wood Sword]!"
A Cai didn't say much, just waved her hand, and then summoned the golden raccoon dog and 00541 from [Home].
00541 immediately understood the situation and said with a hint of excitement, "Host, we have sorted out the Menghe relics. Let's see what use they can be used for!"
The golden raccoon dog rubbed against Ah Cai with a wronged look on his face, and grumbled softly, "Master, we finally managed to get the little raccoon dog's blood back, but you were so generous that you took out a whole bottle!"
Upon seeing this, Tong Jiayuan and the others tactfully returned to their respective rooms, knowing that this battle was of great importance and it would be inconvenient for them to intervene.
Ah Cai brought the golden raccoon dog and stepped into the darkness of the backyard of the post station.
00541 jumped excitedly on the side: "Host, we really caught a ghost this time! It seems that all those Taoist skills you learned were not in vain, put them to use!"
The golden raccoon rolled his eyes and muttered, "It's just a bit of a useless beast. Use less blood, master."
Ah Cai smiled helplessly and rubbed the golden raccoon's head. "I only take it once a year. If the space warehouse wasn't temporarily closed, I wouldn't be willing to use your blood. The warehouse contains a lot of beast blood collected from the world of cultivation."
00541 took the opportunity to interject: "There are so many chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, sheep, and even sika deer in [Homeland]. Isn't that blood good?"
Ah Cai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something and slapped her forehead: "How could I forget about the blood of those spirit beasts!"
She slapped her thigh in frustration: "Why didn't you remind me?"
00541 curled his lips and said, "I thought you were going to deal with a boss-level monster. You insisted on using the blood of the little raccoon dog, but in the end you only dealt with some scum..."
Ah Cai smiled slightly and shook her head. She then took out a bottle of freshly obtained spirit deer blood from her home and shook it gently: "Let's use this this time, so that the little raccoon dog won't complain again."
Upon hearing this, the golden raccoon's eyes lit up and its tail wagged happily, as if to express gratitude.
She sprinkled the blood of the spirit beast on the peach wood sword, and the sword suddenly glowed with a faint red light, as if it was given new life.
Ah Cai gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, her gaze fixed once again on the deep land. She knew that the altar was there, and the bound vengeful ghosts were waiting for her to rescue them.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe borrows the magic, the nine turns suppress ghosts, and eliminate evil spirits!" Ah Cai shouted again, and swung the peach wood sword in his hand suddenly. A red light cut through the night sky and hit the ground directly.
In an instant, a crack appeared in the ground, and a strong yin energy gushed out from the ground.
Ah Cai quickly stepped back, forming seals with his hands and chanting incantations. 00541 excitedly shouted from the side, "Host, keep going! This time, we must liberate all these resentful ghosts!"
As the spell was chanted continuously, the power of the Nine-Turn Ghost Killing Formation gradually became apparent.
The five-colored spirit stones emitted a dazzling light, and nine ghost-suppressing talismans rotated in the air, forming a huge light net that firmly trapped the evil spirit.
A Cai took a deep breath, clasped his hands together suddenly, and the light net shrank instantly, compressing the Yin energy into a small ball.
She quickly took out a jade bottle, put the ball into it, and then sealed the bottle.
"Success!" 00541 cheered.
Ah Cai smiled faintly, her gaze returning to the land. She knew this was only the beginning, the real challenge still lay ahead. She put away the jade bottle, gripped the peach wood sword, and slowly walked towards the altar.
Around the altar, the bound resentful ghosts were still struggling, their eyes filled with pain and despair.
Ah Cai's heart softened, and she said softly, "Don't worry, I will help you get rid of it."
She chanted the spell again, and gently swung the peach wood sword in her hand. A soft light enveloped the altar.
The bodies of those resentful ghosts gradually became transparent, and eventually turned into starlight and dissipated in the night sky.
Ah Cai breathed a sigh of relief and felt a sense of relief.
At this moment, Tong Jiayuan and others reappeared. They looked at Ah Cai and said, "Master, you are amazing! You are really amazing! This is really an eye-opener!"
Ah Cai smiled and waved her hand: "Learn and use it now."
The golden raccoon proudly puffed out its chest, as if to say, "Master is the best!"
00541 took the opportunity to interrupt: "Host, what should we do next?"
Ah Cai looked into the distance with a determined gaze: "Next, we still have a lot of things to do, and we can also take a look at this world."
