It has been ten days since I left Jiufeng Mountain.

This period was also the most comfortable and unforgettable experience for everyone.

Even the two pregnant women have never stayed in the secret territory for long, especially Qingqi, and they don't cry about back pain when they climb the mountain road.

Of course, Li Zhi's protective measures are also very thoughtful, but whenever there is a flat ground, two baggage carts will be taken out for people to go up to rest.

In addition to hunting countless things, Sun Simiao, who harvested the most, collected too many medicinal herbs and spiritual herbs that had never appeared in the Eastern Soil.

The old ancestor once said with a smile that it was enough to write another "Thousand Golden Fang", Sun Simiao recalled a wry smile, and now he has been announced dead by the Sun family who is blocking the bright side, and he can no longer appear at this time.

Li Zhi arrived at the mountain ghost village five days later, which was a deserted bandit village left over from the ancient times of the Puyun Continent, formerly known as "Wasabi Village".

It is said that in a certain battle in ancient times, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were trapped here until they died of despair, and their grievances were overwhelming, and their yin qi was extremely heavy, and they were often haunted.

I don't know when the original name of the village was called the mountain ghost village, which was a place for the people and the government to avoid, but it was an ideal place for bandits and heroes.

But later, due to the haunting became more and more intense, so that the mountain bandits rarely cared, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there began to be a rumor of "a paradise for dead ghosts, a forbidden place for the living" spread, and the mountain ghost village became an uninhabited village.

Because the yin qi here is extremely heavy, the old dragon suggested that he go with Li Yiren, and paid him a danmu fruit in advance, so that he could take a dry danmu branch and leaf and carry it behind him.

At that time, it was rumored that ghosts attacked people behind people, such as what grudges, evil curses, ghost possession, etc., originally came from behind.

According to the later modern times, when scientific exploration has been very developed, there is already a theory of "supernatural science", and the soul is called a "ghost" in "supernatural science".

A psychic medium is a person who has the ability to summon the undead, also known as a psychic person.

The medium summons the spirits of the deceased into their bodies, so that the relatives of the deceased, such as the spirits behind the deceased, the good spirits, the evil spirits, and other kinds of spirits, follow behind the person and affect the person's life.

Therefore, in supernatural science, they are collectively referred to as "spirits behind the scenes", but in ancient and modern times, although the names of ghosts are different, but the danger comes from behind, it is the same.

The old dragon himself wanted to follow, of course, it was intended to protect Li Zhi, not that its current strength would surpass him, but that the dragon bloodline was the highest grade of all bloodlines, and its extreme pure yang aura was also the natural enemy of all yin and evil qi.

There is only one way to enter the mountain ghost village, and finally you have to pass a suspension bridge of nearly 100 zhang, and the suspension bridge can accommodate cars and horses to pass.

And once the suspension bridge is retracted, it is equivalent to cutting off the passage into the mountain ghost village, unless you climb up from below over the deep stream.

But the terrain below is treacherous, and it is impossible to climb up without extraordinary skills, not to mention that the original wasabi village also set up a special trap.

It is said that only a few masters of Wasabi Village can crack it, but unfortunately the people in the entire Wasabi Village have been turned into undead for thousands of years.

The wasabi village that can put hundreds of thousands of soldiers into it must naturally be huge, and in fact, it is also the case, the location of the mountain ghost village at this time is a lonely peak.

The lonely peak is also thousands of zhang high, but the halfway up the mountain is surrounded by hundreds of zhang abyss, the surging river water is always rushing like a flood, the turbulence on the water surface is dense, and the devouring Dou Xuan is almost everywhere, so that the abyss is shrouded in the range, there is no vitality at all.

Today's suspension bridge has long been artificially damaged, and the state that was originally pulled into the air has become a wreckage of less than a dozen zhang today.

The only way to step on the gate is to fall from the sky, so Li Zhi's flying sword just came in handy.

The hundreds of miles around the mountain ghost village are the famous "no man's land" in the local area, and the reason why no one lives here can be said to be mountains

There is no wisp of fresh spirit around the ghost village.

Even though for thousands of years, there have been cultivators with high cultivation who have come to explore the secrets, but most of them have been frightened away by some mysterious and unknown scenes in the mountain ghost village.

Of course, there are also legends that there are many dead bodies left here, but few people have come forward to tell the story, as if those people are extremely shy about talking about it.

Among these people, there are two of the Ten Venerables of the Boundless Realm.

The Boundless Realm cultivator realm is divided into eight levels of martial artists, and the eighth level is equivalent to the peak of the third-level master.

Above it are the four levels of the Venerable, which are equivalent to the four realms of the grandmaster; The fourth level of the Sage is equivalent to the four realms of the brief period.

The Sage Realm is the level that Li Zhi is currently in, but the seventh and eighth levels of the martial artists of the Puyun Continent are considered to be top masters, so the so-called Ten Venerables are the ten strongest people in the entire Boundless Realm Venerable Realm.

Because there is a sage realm in the boundless realm, but no one has really seen people in this realm, and the existence of this level only appears in legends or ancient records.

Therefore, the Ten Venerables at least showed that they were the strongest on the surface of the Boundless Realm, of course, this kind of folk ranking was not accurate most of the time, and in any cultivator world, there would be a large number of extremely strong people who did not want to show their faces, that is, hermitted cultivators.

Li Zhi's feet hit the ground, and without waiting for the flying sword to be retracted, he conveyed his thoughts to the old dragon coiled on his shoulder: "I feel a terrible murderous aura!" ”

The old dragon looked around vigilantly and muttered, "There is not a trace of destruction in the trap, so the murderous aura is not from the suspension bridge, but from the original inside the cottage!" ”

The murderous aura did not stop Li Zhi's determination to enter, and he stepped forward in a few steps and pushed open the wooden mountain gate that had long been decayed and was several feet thick.

With the sound of the terrible rolling, there was no dust falling from the door, which was obviously the reason why it was in the wind.

The seemingly invisible source of murderous aura was also revealed the moment the wooden door was pushed open, and Li Zhiwei smiled dumbly: "It turned out to be the Seven Killing Array!" ”

The Seven Kills Array is derived from the ancient Qimen Dunjia Array, and the so-called Seven Kills are the seven physical attacks evolved from the formation, which are simple offensive formations of fire and metal.

Obviously, this kind of ancient formation of physical nature was also assisted by the cultivation formation, but either because the realm of the formation mage was too low back then, or the power source of the original maintenance formation was exhausted, in short, the current Seven Killing Array only had its form.

However, this Seven Kills Great Array is currently shrouded in a thousand-year-old dead qi, and due to the excessive condensation, a forbidden force is generated out of thin air.

Not only the formation, but the entire entrance of the mountain ghost village within a few dozen zhang was wrapped up by that kind of dead qi condensation barrier.

This is also the reason why Li Zhi pushed open the wooden door, and his divine sense could not penetrate.

It's just that this doesn't mean that the death qi prohibition here is far stronger than Li Zhi's divine sense, but its nature has a counter-effect on all fresh breath.

Li Zhi's divine sense, with a slight wisp of fire that can make the death qi fearful, can ensure that the divine sense can penetrate unimpeded.

And those murderous qi are frozen in mid-air by the prohibition of dead qi, just like a thin layer of ice on the surface of the water, which only needs to be poked by external force to break it, so it is just a form.

The old dragon was reminding him: "Don't underestimate this, the death qi prohibition is only the outermost part of it!" ”

Li Zhi nodded, but it was slapped with a palm, and there was a wisp of heavenly fire in the palm of his hand, and the crisp sound like glass breaking resounded continuously, and in only ten breaths, the true face of the entrance and exit appeared.

But followed by the strong bone-devouring death qi also rushed to his face like filth and weirdness, fortunately, he sensed that all kinds of blessings on Li Zhi's body were far away from him.

However, his probing power made him feel a thrill all over his body, and he felt it

A gray glow appeared everywhere, and the daunting dead air seemed to be like a thick fog, densely mixed with countless devouring yin and evil qi.

And wherever Li Zhi's divine consciousness went, all kinds of noises surged everywhere, making hoarse sounds, as if the nighthawk was crying, very piercing, and making people's scalps explode.

An untold number of translucent ghost phantoms appeared, most of them either legless or crouching, or they had just climbed up from under the ground, and in the blink of an eye, they rushed towards the place where the divine consciousness passed.

It was an endless stream of ghostly phantoms in loose tunics, climbing or floating, blurring the surrounding scenery when they appeared, and their faces were frighteningly white.

This kind of ghost, which has been gathering in the depths of the claustrophobic environment for a long time, instantly brings cold air currents like chaotic clouds, and people can't help but feel a sense of fear.

Coupled with the dim light, the sizzling vision produced by the anomaly of the magnetic field, and the heavy smell of blood that still seemed to be permeating, Li Zhi, who had witnessed the wandering ghosts, still felt the cold soaring all over his body.

Sensing the changes in Li Zhi's body, the old dragon laughed in his sea of knowledge:

"Although ghosts are not a kind of living beings, they are also the remnants of the spiritual power of former living beings, you just need to regard them as a kind of gas, they are more of a reflection of your inner existence, just a kind of unconscious virtual image! According to your Taoism, it is the three corpses that turn into ghosts. ”

The three corpses refer to the three delusions of people: foolishness, greed, and hatred, especially when a person dies, the three corpses are separated from the human corpse and become a free state, and its image is the image before life, which is called "ghost".

Therefore, Taoism believes that ghosts are not dead souls, but three free corpses.

There are two ways for "ghosts" to infringe on people, one is to suddenly possess the human body, showing the various speech and behavior of the deceased before his death, which is not related to the mind of the possessed person, which is called bumpering.

In this case, the person usually leaves the body after finishing the things that should be said, and the attached person returns to normal.

The other is due to walking, especially at night, bumping into a "ghost", and then manifesting as a single or multiple symptoms of mental trance, acute illness, high fever, and flat warts.

It can be relieved by medical treatment, and then it usually becomes a chronic disease, which cannot be cured by modern medical treatment.

Taoism has a specific method to treat this, such as the charm of retiring the three corpses, so that it leaves the body at that time, and heals the next day and does not recur.

Obviously, at this moment, Li Zhi encountered only one or two ghosts, but now they are overwhelmingly showing up the ghost tide.

He didn't have a deep understanding of this path, and the only way to deal with it was to suddenly add a substantial Heavenly Fire intent to his divine consciousness.

As soon as the fire intent spread out with the divine sense, more than a dozen fire flames were wrapped in it, which suddenly caused countless squeaks and screams from the depths of the cottage.

Wherever the extreme flames went, countless gurgling green smoke rose up, and the obvious sound of the flesh being burned by the fire resounded.

In the cave in the belly of the mountain, which stretched for more than ten miles, it immediately caused an abnormal chaotic scene of phantoms scattering and fleeing.

With the sound of shrill chirps that almost wailed, it turned into a gray mist soaked in fear in a very short time, and after a long period of panic, it suddenly disappeared into the ground again.

And as the dimness of the simple cave reappeared after the gray mist dissipated, there seemed to be a trace of vitality in the air, and the breath in the cave no longer looked as languishing as it did at the beginning.

"Mr. Li, there must be a lot of good things in the cave, you see the thousand-year-old place where the dead qi is condensed, the moment it dissipates, there is actually a vitality immediately, obviously the strong survival ability of such spiritual creatures, or willpower, has not been contaminated by the dead qi, resulting in elimination!"

The old dragon's mind was full of obvious joy.
