At the Zongsheng Palace, the results came quickly.
A disciple walked over with a stack of Daoist talismans and said, “Master Xu, please take these ghosts, and there’s no need for the talismans.”
“It’s no problem.”
Xu Yang generously said, “These are just a few talismans I drew myself, not worth much money. Just take them and enjoy some tea.”
Not worth much money?
Isn’t that a bit lavish?
Next, Xu Yang purchased the “ghosts” from other people at the price they had previously agreed on.
Many competitors looked happy.
After all, for them, after catching the ghosts, there were only two options: “Crossing Over” or suppression; there was no second choice.
Being able to exchange three talismans and still being able to choose themselves, especially the talismans in Xu Yang’s “sack”, each of them was of extremely high-quality, the most prominent one being the “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman”.
Only a Great Master of talismans, who has reached the Entering Dao Realm, could create a Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman. It is ‘ extremely effective against Yin spirits and malevolent beings, and in the martial world’s black markets and auctions, a single talisman could sell for hundreds of thousands.
Xu Yang’s “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman” contained a trace of “Heavenly Thunder” charm, plus the additional stamp of the “Supreme Purification Seal”, making it even more powerful and valuable than ordinary talismans of the same kind.
Almost everyone chose the “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman,” and their faces were full of joy as they began to chat warmly with Xu Yang.
Only the three disciples from Yuanxuan Daoist Temple were looking unhappy. “The fifth Daoist Skills Competition’s third task, the ghost-catching competition has successfully ended…”
A Zongsheng Palace master in the Entering Dao Realm announced the results of the competition.
It was indisputable that Xu Yang won first place, and then the schedule for the next day’s competition was announced, which included “Rituals,” “Summoning the Wind and Rain,” and “Spell Battle.”
The “Rituals” and “Summoning the Wind and Rain” events were scheduled for the next morning, while the Spell Battle was set for the afternoon.
One after another, the competitors boarded a bus.
Master Morris from the Maoshan Sect invited Xu Yang to get on the bus, but Xu Yang replied, “You guys go first; I’ll be back later.”
He watched the bus leave.
At the school gate, only a few disciples from the Zongsheng Palace remained.
Xu Yang curiously asked, “Why haven’t you guys left yet?”
“The ghosts in this school were placed here by our Zongsheng Palace. Now that the ghost-catching competition has ended, we need to make sure there are no ghosts left in the school. Otherwise, once we leave, the ghosts would be left unattended and would come out to harm people,” ” the Zongsheng Palace disciples, who had accepted Xu Yang’s talismans, replied politely.
Xu Yang immediately smiled and said, “You’ve been busy all day; you should rest… so, let me help you sweep them.”
Having said that,
Xu Yang waved his hand.
Boom!
In the night sky, the power of thunder unfolded, and lightning struck down into the vague cluster of ghosts behind him. For a while, countless ghosts wailed in agony, emitting mournful screams and curses with a vicious tone.
“You all don’t need to curse, we made a deal, after the competition, I would give you a quick end and send you on your way. Now, I’m just fulfilling my promise,”” Xu Yang said as he waved his hand again, his magical power surging and turning into flames to burn the remaining Yin spirits and ghostly beings to ashes.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you’ve been rewarded for your success in crossing over the deceased: 300 Merit Points.”
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you’ve been rewarded for your success in crossing over the deceased: 200 Merit Points.”
“Ding…”
A series of system notifications came non-stop, and the data in the Merit Points column of the system’s attribute panel skyrocketed, breaking the 20,000 mark and continuously increasing toward 30,000!
In the end, the number settled at 33,500 points.
For a moment, Xu Yang straightened his back, his face flushed with excitement, as if he had won a five-million-dollar prize after being poor for several decades.
He flipped his hand.
And took out another stack of talismans.
He gave five talismans to each of the Zongsheng Palace disciples present and said, “Take it and spend it. I’m in a good mood today.”
Having said that, he stepped into the school.
He took out a Daoist talisman and stuck it on his forehead.
This talisman is the “Heavenly Eye Talisman,” which is one of the three talismans Xu Yang learned from Zongsheng Palace. Once activated, it grants the user the ability similar to the “Heavenly Eye” for a short period of time.
Pop!
The talisman burst.
Xu Yang faintly felt a special power being infused into his eyes.
A streak of Daoist light flashed through his pupils, and the dark night before him began to slowly change.
He found that he could see farther and penetrate the Yin energy with his eyes!
Most importantly…
His eyes seemed to have gained a function similar to “infrared vision”, which allowed him to see through hidden Yin spirits and ghosts. Even if separated by a wall, he could see the Yin spirits and ghosts hiding behind it!
“One, two… ”
Xu Yang instantly saw two Yin spirits hiding in the dark and couldn’t help but say, “Good fellows… These two ghosts have the courage to hide in a latrine!”
Xu Yang was shocked.
Normally, latrines are considered “filthy” places that ghosts and monsters generally don’t approach.
However, this school had been abandoned for six or seven years, and the toilet had never been used, so it naturally provided a place to hide.
Xu Yang went to the toilet and used the Wulei Rules to send the two hiding ghosts away.
He then went to the rooftop of the school office building and saw another ghostly figure.
The creature hid in the office building’s ventilation duct, concealing its breath If it wasn’t for using the “Heavenly Eye Talisman,” it probably would have taken crawling into the duct to discover it.
Who would have the time and patience to crawl through a ventilation duct?
Instead of rushing to take action, Xu Yang scanned the area once again to make sure that there was only one fish that slipped through the net. Then he took out an “Invisibility Talisman” and stuck it on his body.
Hum!
His figure gradually disappeared, leaving only faint footsteps as he quickly walked towards the office building.
At this moment.
Inside the ventilation duct.
The ghost stealthily looked outside.
A cold smile flashed across its face.
“Catching me… is wishful thinking!”
“I have the Yin Treasure to protect my body, which enables me to hide my breath and conceal my figure… Unless it’s a Daoist master who has cultivated the ‘Heavenly Eye’ or a Buddhist master who has cultivated ‘Heavenly Eye Skill,’ no one can find me!”
The Daoist “Heavenly Eye Skill” is a skill. This skill is more challenging to cultivate than Thunder Rules!
Among ten thousand Daoists, perhaps not even one can succeed!
However, once successful, it has the power to penetrate illusions, leaving no place for Yin spirits, malevolent beings, and demons to hide.
“But there’s no hurry.”
“I’ll wait for those Daoists to leave… then I’ll make plans.”
The ugly-looking ghost lay inside the ventilation duct, playing with a stone bead in its hand, and muttered with a look of “daydreaming about the future” on its face: “This school is deserted for miles around… Perhaps I can occupy this place and slowly cultivate.”
“I have a Yin Treasure, and with the help of the Yin Treasure’s power, I can nurture Yin spirits. Soon I can achieve Red Robe or even cultivate into the Ghost King…”
Thinking of this,
The ghost couldn’t help but get excited.
It carefully examined the stone bead held between its two fingers!
However, the next moment…
Swish!
It seemed like something had swept past.
The ugly ghost was stunned for a full three seconds before letting out a heart-wrenching cry—
“Air!”
“My Yin Treasure!”
PS: Third update, I’ve realized my schedule has become increasingly “underworld-like,” so I’ll need to readjust my timings.
