"court death……"
Seeing Ning Kui's demeanor, did the old ghost really think he wouldn't dare to kill?
His fingernails immediately turned pitch black, like five daggers, and he suddenly stabbed towards Ning Kui's back.
He was also very skilled at the art of being completely honest and open!
"puff!"
The Dragon Scale Immortal Robe blocked the fatal blow. The old ghost sneered and was about to continue his attack.
Suddenly, a large, dark shadow burst open on Ning Kui's back like fireworks.
Countless black tentacles pierced his arms and body, like barbs, from which he could not escape.
Old Ghost's expression changed drastically. What the hell is this thing?
Before it could react, an irresistible force came from the tentacles.
He was like a big fish caught on a hook, violently dragged toward the end of his life.
"Spare me!!!"
Old Ghost's body was half swallowed up before he could even beg Ning Kui for mercy.
However, all of this was in vain, and in the next instant, it was completely swallowed up into the birthmark of the idol.
[Yin Qi Points +2000.]

[Special Feature: Allows free movement of objects within a ten-zhang radius of the user.]
Ning Kui's lips curled up slightly; this was a huge profit.
Old man, I told you to hit him, and you actually did?
He turned to look at the huge rice shop, where only a little girl with half her head peeking out from behind the counter was nervously watching him.
"trouble……"
If he guessed correctly, the pale-faced but exquisitely beautiful little girl was the lost granddaughter that the old woman from another Yongshun rice shop had mentioned.
Several years have passed, but I don't know why I haven't grown up.
The owner of this haunted shop was the evil spirit the old woman described as having run a rice shop in life, and who continued to do so even after death, and even expanded his business to an even greater extent.
He suddenly had some unsettling thoughts about the old woman's face covered in scars.
In short, that old devil really deserves to die.
"Little one, your grandma sent me. Don't shout. I'll take you to see your grandma later, okay?"
Upon hearing the word "grandmother," the little girl's eyes lit up, and she nodded obediently.
He then pointed to his mouth and waved his hand.
This indicates that she won't shout or yell randomly.
Ning Kui originally intended to leave her there and go to the warehouse to fill up the rice.
But then I thought about it again, and children are the least to be underestimated; so many people have been ruined by children.
He then turned to the child and said, "Where is the rice at the rice shop? Take me there, your grandma asked me to get it."
He always felt that he could only feel at ease when this child was in his presence.
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then came out from behind the counter, and Ning Kui finally saw her clearly.
He couldn't help but gasp.
The little girl was only wearing a top...
That old devil...
Damn, he died too young!
Ning Kui clenched his fists, thinking he should be beaten into a pulp, punch by punch!
They are truly beasts, kidnapping and imprisoning such a young child!
Ning Kui had a pretty good idea about the old woman's intentions.
Old Ghost has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds, and his own cultivation level is high; she is no match for him at all.
Which human race, capable of secretly hoarding large quantities of food, is easy to mess with?
Either they are secretly gathering power to rebel against the Black Mountain God's secret organization.
They are either agents of major interest groups.
That old devil is greedy and lecherous. One day he'll mess with someone he can't afford to offend, and then he'll fall!
The old woman waited for several years!
Ning Kui turned his back and let the little girl tidy up her clothes first.
Only then, under her guidance, did we arrive at the warehouse.
The warehouse is divided into two sections: Yin and Yang.
The Yangku storehouse contained rice and grains meant for human consumption.
The Yin Treasury contains pills that evil spirits consume.
Those pills are low-grade pills bought by people who cannot afford to offer sacrifices to living people and the flesh and blood of demons to sustain the lives of evil spirits. They are mainly made from the flesh and blood of livestock.
Ning Kui was interested in trying out his newly acquired supernatural powers.
The power of the [Ghost Transport Technique] immediately covered the rice.
He opened the seven-star bag and saw large swathes of rice and grains autonomously entering the bag, a process that was hundreds or thousands of times faster than a person could carry it in a winnowing basket.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the once full rice warehouse became empty.
Ning Kui sensed for a moment and found that there was still about one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters) of space left inside the Seven Star Bag.
Yes, the evil spirits have also taken all the rice and grain they ate.
Consider it fish food; when you're away from home, you always have to think about your family.
Leading the little girl back to the front hall, they were bumped into by a malevolent spirit from the Qi-Eating Realm who had come to buy rice.
Ning Kui directly gained 200 Yin Qi points...
When Ning Kui returned to the old woman's rice shop with the little girl, the old woman still had the door half open, and the green candlelight flickered dimly.
"Grandma... Grandma..."
The little girl called out timidly to the old woman who was sleeping on the counter.
The old woman's ears twitched, and she mumbled in response in her sleep, "Grandma's here, Lian'er, don't be afraid."
"grandmother!"
The little girl called out again, her voice trembling with tears.
The old woman's body jolted as if electrocuted, then she suddenly sat up straight from the counter, staring incredulously at the two figures, one tall and one short, in the doorway.
Her chapped lips trembled as she let out a heart-wrenching cry: "My darling Lian'er!"
She stumbled out and scooped the little girl into her arms.
He kept stroking it up and down, as if afraid that this was just another illusory dream.
"Grandma! Lian'er misses you!"
"Grandma misses Lian'er too! My darling, she's finally escaped from that beast's clutches!"
The sight of the grandmother and grandson embracing and crying made Ning Kui touch the tip of his nose. He walked to the wall and leaned against it, content to be invisible for a while.
……
In the solemn and dignified Black Mountain Temple, on the sacrificial plaza, the stone pillars carved with the Black Mountain God's totem are burning fiercely.
Countless flames dyed half the sky red.
The head temple keeper carried a pure gold statue of a deity and walked past the people who were being escorted there.
"no"
"no"
"Not yet!"
More than 7,000 people knelt neatly on the ground, bowing their heads and chanting, "May the Red Fire God protect us," whenever the statue passed by.
The Crimson Fire God is the number one ghost general under the Black Mountain God, making him the most suitable for testing.
Anyway, the Black Mountain God no longer dared to test his golden body.
"Useless! What kind of useless trash did they arrest!"
The Grand Temple Master roared in uncontrollable rage, his dark eyes sweeping over the black-robed guards.
Their overwhelming aura forced them to lower their heads.
"Martial law will be imposed in Heishan Prefecture starting tomorrow!"
No one is allowed to enter or leave until that elusive creature is found!
"...Yes, sir!"
The densely packed black-robed guards withdrew from the temple and resumed carrying out their orders.
The chief priest then returned to the center of the temple, cut his wrists, smeared his blood on his forehead, and called upon the deity to lower his gaze.
"Your Highness, I have already spread your will."
However, this will inevitably severely damage the operation of Black Mountain City, and I wonder...
In the center of the temple, the enormous golden statue of the god suddenly opened its eyes.
"Find Him at any cost!"
If we don't take advantage of His weakness and devour Him...
"I will never be able to reach that... realm..."
As he finished speaking, the Black Mountain God seemed to be avoiding something, his voice grew softer and softer, and finally his golden eyes closed again.
The head priest slowly raised his head; the blood talisman on his forehead had been reabsorbed by his skin.
He walked outside from the temple, and before the appointed time, a white light suddenly shone from the magnificent mountain range in the east, which seemed to connect heaven and earth.
The white light grew stronger and hotter.
Until it was like the sun shining brightly in the sky, it swept across the sky above the city of Heishan with a "rumble".
The scorching and powerful aura poured down without restraint, silencing the entire city.
The head priest faced the firelight and bowed in respect.
"Wu Shuiyan pays respects to the Crimson Fire God General!"
