This was a piece of human bone.
It still has a faint residual temperature, obviously it has just been taken from the warm human body.
Once it sticks to her soul, it suppresses most of the yin energy in her body!
The eldest daughter reacted very quickly.
It gathered strength and broke free from the restraint of the “jade finger bone”, threw it away, and stared at Yan Cheng with a fierce look.
Just when she looked up, her body paused.
She saw that the young man in the red sedan had a face as white as jade, a scarlet dress as red as fire, and a pair of eyes as black as ink, exuding a sinister aura, like two bottomless whirlpools.
He was full of ghostly aura, and at first glance, he looked more like an evil ghost than herself!
But what shocked and frightened the eldest daughter even more was that she found that part of her yin energy power was flowing towards Yan Cheng!
It was the first time that she encountered such an evil thing with a mortal. She didn’t dare to delay further. She ignored the flow of the evil spirit and grabbed Yan Cheng’s neck fiercely.
When she was still half an arm away, the peach wood sword with a bright golden light rushed towards her, breaking her body like the gush of wind.
At the moment when her soul was chopped off by the power of Taoism, the eldest daughter was still at a loss.
She never thought that the ridiculous and clumsy wooden sword, which seemed to have a blunt blade, could cut her down with one swing after being attached to Gu Zhisang’s soul power.
From the time when her body exploded and attacked Yan Cheng, to the time when her soul was broken into two pieces, it only took two or three seconds.
Everything changed in a snap of a finger and a breath.
It was as if these two people had predicted its trajectory in advance and practiced the response methods, without any hesitation, and it had no time to react.
Gu Zhisang had never thought of stopping her from rushing towards Yan Cheng.
From the beginning to the end, the direction in which she pointed her sword was the eldest daughter.
If the eldest daughter surrendered, she would take her to the Palace of Hell, and ask the underworld to judge her according to right and wrong.
But this ghost had lost all reason, and after suffering, she became a violent person.
Now she was still unwilling to let go of Yan Cheng and other Taoist masters she had captured. When she became a great ghost with profound power and broke through the barrier and went to the outside world of the living, how could she keep her promise to only kill her family members and not touch any grass or tree in the world of the living?
By then, she had tasted the taste of stirring up the storm in the human world and wantonly controlling the lives of weak humans. How could it obediently return to the underworld and suffer the pain of evil power and punishment?
At the moment when the eldest daughter refused to surrender, Gu Zhisang turned the power attached to the wooden sword into the “ghost killing mantra”.
But she was a little surprised by Yan Cheng’s approach and courage.
When the sword was drawn back, Gu Zhisang glanced at the slightly embarrassed young man in the sedan with a satisfied look.
“Are you okay? Are you injured?”
Yan Cheng shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was not in shock but was glad that he didn’t hold Gu Zhisang back and didn’t become a person who restricted Gu Zhisang in every way.
The Samadhi True Fire Talisman that burned the eldest daughter was originally given to him by Gu Zhisang when he encountered the “Red and White Collision Evil” at the entrance of Tianyun Village.
It was to be used for self-defense and exorcism in case of some accidents that tripped Gu Zhisang and failed to find him in time.
Yan Cheng also tried to escape on the way.
But this lacquered red sedan was like a hard iron box, and it remained indifferent no matter how he hit it.
The “happy funeral ghost” floating outside was still sneering and told him not to waste his energy.
Not long after he was carried to the underworld, Gu Zhisang arrived.
Yan Cheng heard her conversation and confrontation with the eldest daughter in the sedan chair. At that time, he took off the ‘jade finger bone’ hanging on his neck, wrapped it in the Samadhi True Fire Talisman, and kept it in his hand.
When he heard the eldest daughter’s voice suddenly become sharp, he began to recite the spell taught by Gu Zhisang to drive the Samadhi True Fire Talisman.
Yan Cheng thought he had no talent for cultivation, but who would have thought that he would succeed in one try?
After the Samadhi True Fire ignited with a ‘hiss’ sound, a dazzling cold evil blew the sedan curtain open.
Seeing the ferocious and bloodshot eyes of the eldest daughter, he threw the fire talisman in his hand towards her.
The ‘jade finger bone’ in the talisman stunned the eldest daughter for a moment, and he was ready to absorb the evil spirit of the female ghost.
Yan Cheng raised his eyes: “Thanks to you…”
Before he finished speaking, a sinister laugh interrupted his voice.
Because the eldest daughter was filled with deep resentment, after being cut into two pieces, the two pieces of soul dispersed very slowly, and it gave up another piece on its own. Now the broken end of the upper body has slowly solidified.
She sneered and stared at Gu Zhisang: “You didn’t even think about defending this man from evil spirits. It seems that you don’t care much about his life or death!”
After a pause, the eldest daughter said:
“I admit that I fell into your hands, but a cold-hearted person like you who has no sympathy or pity will not have true love.”
When she was about to be shattered, she did not forget to sow discord with Gu Zhisang.
Gu Zhisang didn’t care about this, and what it said was indeed the truth.
She didn’t have much friendship with Yan Cheng, but she took care of him a little more because of the friendship between old friends.
But if this care conflicts with her goal, she will still prioritize her morality.
For example, just now, she was not 100% sure that she could keep Yan Cheng safe.
After all, the other party had a mortal body and was relatively fragile. If he is hit by a strong evil spirit, he may be seriously injured.
If she changes her sword momentum to protect Yan Cheng and focuses on breaking his moves, she will naturally be in a passive position in the battle and easily fall into a trap and be counterattacked.
Gu Zhisang will not let herself be passive, so her goal from beginning to end is:
Kill with one strike.
If the eldest daughter dies, the threat to the world and the danger of Yan Cheng will completely disappear.
Even if he was injured, she has the confidence to make him fully recover.
After a brief consideration, she calmly and firmly chooses to strangle the evil spirit on the spot and does not care about the verbal attack of the Xiao family girl before she disappears.
Gu Zhisang walked to the half-fouled female ghost, with a normal look:
“My heart is toward the great way, as firm as a stone.”
A few words can’t shake her character.
“Your sin is unjustifiable, but I promise that the Xiao Family who sold you out will be punished.”
“I hope that before you close your eyes, you will also feel remorse and regret for the heavy sins you have committed and for the innocent villagers who died.”
After saying that, without waiting for the stunned eldest daughter to react or beg for mercy, Gu Zhisang simply raised her sword and cut off her head and neck of the soul with one sword, giving it a clean death.
When the scattered soul power dissipated in the underworld, Gu Zhisang looked up at the Yin and Yang entrance above her head, which began to change.
The eldest daughter, the great evil creature that caused the existence of the “upside-down underworld”, was shattered, and the eye supporting this yin formation also disappeared.
