Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 329 - 142: The Monstrosity that Crawled Out of the Netherworld! The Barrier Torn Apart! (Mega - of 10,000 Characters, Subscription Requested)_4
Just a month ago, the young miss of the Wu Family, for reasons unknown, inexplicably contracted a chill disease, finding herself in a perpetual state of bodily coldness.
In desperation, the Wu Family head summoned various famed doctors and medical experts from the county town, but none could cure her.
At that time, someone suddenly suggested that perhaps the young miss was not ill at all, but rather possessed by evil spirits?!
The Wu Family head immediately sought out the highly respected Taoist Priest Yuan from the county town.
Taoist Priest Yuan, after a thorough investigation, affirmed that the Wu Family’s young miss was indeed afflicted by an evil spirit, which temporarily resided within her. Declaring the spirit to be powerful, Priest Yuan admitted he was unable to forcibly expel it. He then declared that a complex secret technique was required to completely purge the evil spirit from the young miss’s body!
The progression of the secret technique went very smoothly until the very last step—which was to have a man born in a year, month, and day of Yang, urgently escort the young miss on horseback to a place designated by Priest Yuan, known as the Land of Ultimate Yin.
Upon placing the young miss in the Land of Ultimate Yin and lighting three sticks of incense beside her, finally burning all the talismans provided by Priest Yuan...
The evil spirit residing within the young miss would be forcibly expelled.
After which, the evil spirit would be absorbed by the Land of Ultimate Yin.
The Wu Family’s young miss would then awaken.
"...This sounds..." Yun Jiuqing raised an eyebrow, her expression carrying a trace of strangeness as she muttered to herself in a low voice, "Why do I have a feeling that this so-called Taoist Priest Yuan is somewhat abnormal?"
Yun Jiuqing looked at the coachman and asked, "So you are that guy, the unlucky one born in a year, month, and day of Yang?"
The coachman nodded cautiously, "I... I think I shouldn’t be considered unlucky, right? The Wu Family head gave me a hundred taels of silver, and said if the young miss wakes up afterwards, he would give me another hundred taels."
At this point, the coachman seemed to let his guard down, glancing in the direction of the not too distant location.
There lay Gou Lan of Hegou Village, his voice gradually becoming softer, "This is already enough for me to live without any financial worries for several years, allowing me to squander at will."
"Aren’t you at all suspicious that this so-called Taoist Priest Yuan might be a wicked person deliberately causing harm?" Yun Jiuqing said, "I am also a cultivator, yet I haven’t seen any particularly formidable evil spirit inhabiting this woman’s body?"
"But Priest Yuan... he is a very powerful Taoist Priest... with a high reputation in the county town..." mumbled the coachman.
Yun Jiuqing’s eyes widened, "Are you implying that my cultivation is too low?!"
The coachman, now under the intense gaze of Yun Jiuqing’s widened eyes, instantly dared not speak any longer. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"Where is the Land of Ultimate Yin mentioned by that Taoist Priest Yuan?"
At that moment, the voice of Fan Wu arose.
Although it was just an ordinary question, the imposing pressure it conveyed to the coachman was incomparable to Yun Jiuqing. It was as if a ravenous and ferocious lion were casually speaking to a person.
The coachman’s voice began to tremble, "It is... it is... behind the mountains of Hegou Village... If we hurry with the horses, possibly... it might take only the time of burning an incense stick."
"Lead the way," Fan Wu said casually, "and take this fellow along too."
"This... this fellow?" The coachman was perplexed.
"The one in the carriage," said Fan Wu.
The moment of realization struck the coachman; his heart pounded in shock and awe. After all, the one lying inside the carriage was the Wu Family’s young miss, so how did she seem no more than a lump of meat in the eyes of this robust man?
Or perhaps, even less valuable than a lump of flesh?
"Yes, yes, yes! Right away, I shall lead you, mighty sir!" the coachman hastily replied, brushing aside the thoughts in his head.
The coachman, on the verge of tears, continued to drive his carriage at a much slower pace than before. The robust man beside him walked at a speed not particularly fast, and if he began to drive the horses at full gallop...
Wouldn’t he then leave the mighty man behind?
He felt that for his own slender neck, the robust man didn’t even need to draw his large sword—to merely grasp and twist his neck might suffice to snap his head off.
Dwelling on this utterly horrifying image,
The coachman became even more careful not to slight.
Moreover, he had also seen the Nanjun County Prince tied to the back of Old Blue Ox, which scared him even more from attempting any mischief.
He had no desire to end up in such a state, feeling certain that the person bound on the oxen’s back must have offended the formidable man before him.
Soon enough,
The mountains behind Hegou Village.
They arrived.
And by this time, the sky had turned completely dark, though the faint moonlight shone overhead, illuminating the path ahead.
But the feeble moonlight only added an eerie, fear-inducing atmosphere to the surroundings.
At least,
The coachman was exceedingly frightened.
For in the carriage behind him, lay a girl from the Wu Family, quietly possessed.
Even the talisman that Yun Jiuqing previously placed on his forehead, which had lost its effect, he didn’t dare to remove.
Fearing that removing the precious talisman
Might invite some malevolent events.
He wasn’t a cultivator, just an ordinary coachman. If he truly encountered any malevolent events, he felt he would definitely be the first to die.
And not just die, but die without a complete corpse.
Under the moonlight, the slowly advancing carriage came to a stop, and in a trembling voice, the coachman said, "According to the description by Taoist Priest Yuan, if you follow this road leading to the back of Hegou Village for about two or three thousand steps, you will reach the Land of Ultimate Yin."
