I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 799: Defeating Ghosts in One Move

Profound Yin Divine Mirror? Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror!

Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he immediately reacted, "A few days ago, were you in Weizhou Prefecture?"

Lu Zheng seldom used the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror. His last two uses were in Weizhou Prefecture. The first time was secretly spying on the Profound Heart Demon when no one else was present, and the Profound Heart Demon had already died. The second time was using the mirror light to hold the Profound Heart Demon in place. This time, it was indeed in public, but still in the mortal world. Lu Zheng truly hadn't expected to be recognized by a ghostly entity.

This ghostly being's Dao Practice was profound. Although it was far inferior to the Profound Heart Demon, it was higher than Lu Zheng's. If it had stayed hidden without revealing itself, it would have been hard to detect.

"Hehe, looks like you know the origin of the Divine Mirror!"

Upon hearing Lu Zheng's question, the ghostly entity coldly chuckled, "I originally came to the mortal world just to unwind. Unexpectedly, luck was on my side. I said that little ghost was useless and couldn't keep the Divine Mirror. Within ten years, their clan was exterminated, and the Divine Mirror disappeared. My brothers and I searched countless leagues of the Netherworld but couldn't find any trace of the Divine Mirror. We never thought it would fall into the mortal world."

At this point, the ghostly entity paused, then coldly said, "Hand over the Divine Mirror, and I will spare your life. If you even dare utter half a no, I will have every member of your family killed, everyone dead, subject to Soul Extraction and Refining, tortured for a thousand years!"

Lu Zheng squinted his eyes, truly angered...

Although this ghost was formidable, he was at best at the level of the Saintess Mingyi. Even when ambushing from the shadows, he couldn't take Lu Zheng down in one hit. What gave him the confidence to think he could kill Lu Zheng, merely because his Dao Practice was higher?

Lu Zheng had slain plenty whose Dao Practice was higher than his!

Behind Lu Zheng, the White Cloud Banner fluttered. He flipped his hand to take out the Thunderstruck Peach Wood Sword, ready to go all out to eliminate the ghost.

Then, the ghost reached out, and a crystal-clear, black lotus, like dark jade, hovered above his palm. Then thousands of black lotuses appeared within hundreds of feet around them.

"I'll give you three breaths, if you don't..."

Before he finished speaking, the surface of those thousands of black lotuses suddenly ignited with red flames. In the blink of an eye, they were burned clean, dissipating between heaven and earth.

"Hmm?" The ghost's face turned pale, utterly baffled.

"Hmm?" Lu Zheng and Shen Ying's eyes also flickered, for it wasn't they who had acted.

At this moment, a red figure suddenly appeared in the arena.

Wearing the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Golden Patterned Red Brocade Palace Attire, adorned with a Phoenix Spreading Wings Golden Threaded Red Pearl Phoenix Hairpin, her willow eyebrows flying obliquely with cloud-like hair, and eyes like Phoenix Eyes with Radiant and Colorful Light, it was the master of Phoenix Mountain, Si Lingxi.

"Fairy Si?" Lu Zheng was stunned speechless, Shen Ying also widened her eyes in surprise.

"I happened to be wandering in a nearby city, sensed the Phoenix Divine Fire, turns out you had encountered an enemy." Si Lingxi said calmly, then looked at the ghostly figure.

The ghost was dumbfounded, then without another word, the black lotus in his hand suddenly enlarged, floated to his feet, and carried him off, transforming into a streak of light headed for the distance.

Si Lingxi shook her head, reached out a finger, and a spark shot from her hand. As soon as it was released, it grew with the wind, instantly transforming into a Fire Phoenix with a span of ten feet, fast as a shooting star, streaking across the sky, drawing a red light and afterimage, quickly catching up with the black lotus.

The Fire Phoenix surged forth, enveloping the black lotus in an instant, and with a "whoosh," the Phoenix Divine Fire rose into the sky, resembling a giant torch.

"Ah!!!" The ghost's scream echoed out, "Spare me, Elder!!!"

But he could only scream that once. As soon as his cry fell, the Phoenix Divine Fire brightened abruptly, and then a chaotic spiritual power wave rippled through heaven and earth.

As the flames dissipated, the spot where the ghost stood was empty.

Indeed,

Body and soul both extinguished, Qi and treasure together erased.

A thousand years of Dao Practice, vanished in a day.

"Buzz!"

With a light hum, Lu Zheng felt another strand of Light of Fortune flow into the Mind Jade Seal, and the ghost didn't even get to reveal its name before dying. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Lu Zheng: (°ー°〃)

...

Stowing away the White Cloud Banner and Wooden Sword, Lu Zheng, hand in hand with Shen Ying, approached Si Lingxi to pay their respects.

"Greetings, Elder Si!" Lu Zheng cupped his hands in salute.

"Thank you, Elder!" Shen Ying smiled and said.

Si Lingxi waved it off nonchalantly, "It's nothing. I happened upon this by chance. Even if I hadn't arrived, he wouldn't have been able to do anything to you."

Si Lingxi was aware of Lu Zheng's capabilities; even if he couldn't win against the ghost, it wouldn't have been difficult for him to escape.

"It could still be troublesome. If he managed to report this back to the Netherworld, it would be problematic for me in the future." Lu Zheng said.

"What kind of problem?" Si Lingxi asked, since she arrived late and hadn't heard their earlier conversation.

"I inadvertently came upon a mirror, unexpectedly, it's the renowned Dharma Artifact of the Profound Yin Divine Monarch in the Netherworld." Lu Zheng explained.

"Profound Yin Divine Mirror?" Si Lingxi's eyebrows arched.

"Exactly that!" Lu Zheng nodded, and he took out the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror.

Si Lingxi had helped them fend off and kill the ghost, even though she might not care, Lu Zheng felt obliged to explain the entire situation. Moreover, someone of Si Lingxi's level of Dao Practice wouldn't be concerned with the mirror.

Indeed, Si Lingxi glanced at the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror, nodded approvingly, and said, "Nice mirror."

"But the karma isn't small." Lu Zheng said with a wry smile.

"What's there to fear, none from Profound Yin Mountain amount to anything. In a few years, with the mirror's aid, they'll no longer be a match for you." Si Lingxi dismissively said.

Lu Zheng was speechless; Si Lingxi spoke so casually, as though with more confidence in him than even Master Qing Song...

Lu Zheng put the mirror away, and beside him, Shen Ying curiously asked, "Why did Elder come to the Central Plains?"

"There's nothing much going on at Phoenix Mountain, and it's been a while since I came to the Central Plains. The last time we talked about opera, it stirred my thoughts, prompting me to take a trip here to unwind." Si Lingxi replied.

"Since there's nothing significant, why not come stay with us in Tonglin County for a while?" Shen Ying invited.

"We can prepare a few fine banquets to welcome Elder." Lu Zheng smiled.

Si Lingxi's eyes glanced around, clearly tempted, and she nodded, "Then I shall impose."

"Not at all, Elder is too polite." Lu Zheng laughed, "Elder Liu and the others are never this polite; they act naturally."

The three of them then flew together towards Tonglin County, and while on their way they discussed the reason behind Lu Zheng and Shen Ying's presence there.

"Great Black Heaven Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor." Si Lingxi frowned slightly and shook her head.

"Elder knows of him too?"

Si Lingxi rolled her eyes, "I'm not some old demon who stays secluded and oblivious to worldly affairs."

"Currently, he's hiding in the Southern Border." Lu Zheng stated.

"I know, that old fiend is an Upper Realm Celestial Demon, but how much Divine Techniques can his Divine Thought have in the mortal realm?" Si Lingxi nodded, her expression cold, "Just a mole, I'll burn him to death when I see him."

Lu Zheng, "..."

Shen Ying, "..."

Those words were overflowing with boldness!
