C117 Art of drawing souls

Daoist Master Tian Xuan was also ready to go. After looking at me for a moment, he casually nodded his head. I could feel Daoist Tian Xuan's gaze sweeping across my chest. However, there seemed to be nothing abnormal with his face up till now.

Tang Rou and I carefully carried the paper man with Daoist Tian Xuan. As noon approached, we quickly headed towards the forest.

Thinking about what happened last night with the Wall-Hitting Ghost, I couldn't help but ask Daoist Tian Xuan for guidance.

"Senior, when you went to help last night, did something unusual happen?"

Daoist Tianxuan immediately understood what I meant as he stroked his beard and said.

"You're talking about those monsters blocking the way, right?"

Hearing the word "monster", I was somewhat puzzled.

"It's those beasts that cultivate immortality."

Tang Rou, who was standing to the side, happily took over the conversation, as if she had figured out the reason behind it.

Daoist Tianxuan smiled in praise and didn't continue. Tang Rou cleared her throat and began to explain.

Last night, what we encountered was not any ghosts, but some mischievous monsters. Regarding these things, you don't know about them, but it is understandable, because there will always be some beasts that can comprehend the way of the heavens in these spiritual mountains. Furthermore, over the years of cultivation, they will also be able to increase the intelligence of these beasts.

Hearing this, I gradually understood what Tang Rou meant.

"In other words, the two of us accidentally trespassed into the territory of these Immortal Cultivating Beasts yesterday and were mischievous?"

"Brat, you reacted pretty quickly. That's the reason why. Actually, at that time, as long as we made any noise, we could scare away these mischievous things. However, at that time, we were both panicking and did not think of that."

I know, Tang Rou must have asked Daoist Tian Xuan about this before, so she knows the reason. If it wasn't for that, the two of us wouldn't have walked such a long and bitter path last night.

In the daytime, these cultivators would never come out. Moreover, we have a Daoist Priest Tian Xuan with a profound Tao technique by our side. These things are all very refined, so naturally we won't get into trouble.

"Actually, last night, those monsters didn't stop you two out of malice. They wanted to tell you not to go and die, or perhaps to stop you from causing trouble."

After listening to Daoist Master Tian Xuan's explanation, the guilt in his heart deepened. If that ghost girl hadn't helped him out in the name of justice last night, he would have probably caused a great disaster.

"Don't worry. With Daoist Tianxuan here, you'll definitely be able to bring back the ghost soul for that female ghost."

Even though Tang Rou said this, I saw that Daoist Tianxuan wasn't very optimistic. I couldn't help but quicken my pace in an attempt to figure out just what state Big Sis ghost is in right now.

No matter what, it must be very dangerous. Otherwise, that ghost girl would have come looking for me long ago.

I only hope that the ghost lady's soul hasn't dissipated. This way, I can think of a way to release her.

The three of them passed through the forest and soon arrived at their destination.

Even though it was broad daylight and the sun was directly shining on the top of the forest, it was still pitch black under the treetops. It was as if all the sunlight had been absorbed by the trees.

"According to senior, this forest should have existed for a very long time, right?"

Daoist Tianxuan nodded.

"This forest should be there to suppress that thing. At least, that's what I think."

Tang Rou and I, one on the left and one on the right, carried the paper man and followed from behind. Very soon, the three of us entered the black forest, and at that moment, a gust of cold wind wrapped around my entire body.

"Even though it is noon, if I stay in this forest for a long time, the Yin Qi will inevitably enter my body. I should quickly place a Soul Suppressing Talisman on my body."

Tang Rou and I didn't dare to be negligent. Following Daoist Tianxuan's instructions, we fished out a Soul Suppressing Talisman and stuck it on our own chests. Huangfu immediately released white smoke, and at the same time, a large portion of the icy-cold feeling immediately dissipated. However, not long after the Soul Suppressing Talisman stuck on our chest, the position of the ghost's face became boiling hot while the Yellow Talisman was instantly burnt to ashes.

I knew that the Demon Face and Yellow Symbol Master were rivals, so I didn't continue to use the Soul Suppressing Talisman. After the Demon Face awakened, he could also suppress the surrounding Yin Qi into his body.

"This is the place."

Daoist Tian Xuan stopped. Tang Rou and I raised our heads and looked at the tree. There was a scarecrow about the size of a palm on top of the tree.

This was also the place where Tang Rou and I had gotten into trouble last night. The paper doll, which was not far away from me, caught my eye and I immediately looked into the depths of the forest. I hoped to find the ghost girl, but other than noticing that the forest was a bit chaotic, I didn't discover anything else.

"That thing should be sleeping, but we have to speed up. That thing must have absorbed a lot of Yin Qi last night, and it's much stronger than before. We can't afford any mistakes when changing paper."

Daoist Tian Xuan's tone was solemn as he reached out his hand to take the paper man from Tang Rou's and my shoulders.

According to our previous plan, I arrived at the tree. However, the task of getting the scarecrow wasn't for me, but for Tang Rou.

All I had to do was guard against the thing in the woods, or some other evil thing, the moment the scarecrow was removed and the paper man was not put on board.

After all, there will be a short gap during this period of time, which will cause the puppet's sealing spell formation to lose its effectiveness.

I tightly held a few yellow talismans in my hand and the Pig Slaughtering Knife in my other hand.

I am extremely sensitive to changes in Yin Yang energy, so this mission is unavoidable.

"Are you ready?"

After Daoist Tianxuan asked her question, Tang Rou took a deep breath and ran over to save him.
