Chapter 400: Divine Light Annihilation Spell
Chapter 400: Divine Light Annihilation Spell
Each gateway into the mansion represents a new realm, a step into a different world.
Hu Ma, the Blood Xiu Guardian, upon entering the mansion, had reached a new level, far surpassing his previous self. However, having just entered, he had yet to learn the signature skills and abilities of this new realm, and even the unique aspects of being within the mansion were still unfamiliar to him.
Normally, at this stage, a Blood Xiu Guardian would not engage in combat unless they held a significant advantage; otherwise, they would flee.
But Hu Ma had an additional advantage—the skills from the Seasonal Guardian Scroll. Previously, his abilities and the knowledge from the scroll were separate, and he could not combine them.
However, now that he had entered the mansion, he could use his Blood Xiu Guardian body to practice the skills from the scroll, and with the support of the Ghost Summoning Altar, he felt confident enough to face the evil being outside, even without having learned the signature skills of the Blood Xiu Guardians.
"Huff!"
Facing the enormous, twisted black shadow outside, Hu Ma, standing within the altar, took a deep breath, like a giant whale sucking in water. He inhaled the rolling dark aura into his belly and then forcefully exhaled.
This breath reached the red lantern above, and the faint red light it emitted suddenly intensified, creating a brilliant glow. With the power of the altar, the light transformed into a rolling sea of fire, vast and mighty, surging towards the mysterious, deep black shadow outside the valley.
"Shua-li-pa-la!"
The massive black shadow covered the entire forest, and everywhere, the rustling sounds of snakes and insects crawling could be heard, as if it could swallow everything.
But as the red light burned towards it, a large section of the black shadow suddenly crumbled, contracted, and dissolved, twisting and turning, its form uncertain.
Amidst this, the cries of some sorcerers could be heard, suddenly awakened and wailing in panic.
The black shadow that had reached the pagoda gate not only failed to invade the valley but was directly driven back by the flames. Within it, a terrifying creature seemed to be convulsing and colliding, wailing incessantly.
The fire on the red lantern was, in fact, a divine light, capable of dispelling malevolent Yin Qi. Spirit mediums could use talisman flames and candles to produce such flames.
However, they usually lasted only for a moment, as their mystic power was insufficient, and they lacked the endurance.
But now, Hu Ma, as a Blood Xiu Guardian, channeled the power of the altar. His breath was long and powerful, transforming the red light on the lantern into a fiery dragon, coiling and twisting from left to right, almost tearing the massive black shadow in half.
If the black shadow that covered the entire forest was once a venom basin, it was now on the verge of shattering.
"Oh, my mother..."
The people in the valley had only seen the enormous shadow approaching the valley, but as Hu Ma held the red wooden sword and the red light blazed before the valley, the shadow suddenly retreated and shrank, and within the unseen darkness, there were cries and howls of ghosts and wolves.
Mr. Sun, guarding the valley entrance, let out a wail, almost kneeling: "The power of Lady Red Lantern is so profound?"
"Then why should I worship the One Coin Sect?"
"..."
As an experienced Blood Xiu Guardian, he was well-versed and had seen much. He was aware that the sorcerers had summoned something formidable, beyond the reach of ordinary means.
If the Dharma King were to descend personally, perhaps it would be different. But summoning the Dharma King also had varying methods: the weakest involved carrying the Dharma King's token and chanting a spell to borrow a strand of their power to perform divine abilities.
A more powerful method involved spirit mediums summoning the Dharma King's power, allowing them to borrow three-tenths of the Dharma King's power, and with secret techniques and tokens, they could borrow even more.
An even more potent method involved spirit mediums offering their bodies as candles, inviting the Dharma King to possess them, with no limit to the power they could borrow, depending on how much of their lives they were willing to sacrifice.
But Mr. Sun was certain that even the power of the One Coin Sect's Dharma King, summoned through such a method, would not be enough to deal with this summoned being. Yet, the little shopkeeper of the Red Lantern Society had used the simplest method, and it had severely damaged the creature outside.
Did this not imply that a mere strand of Lady Red Lantern's power was stronger than what the Dharma King of the One Coin Sect could borrow by sacrificing his life?
"How could this be?"
Just then, a desperate wail echoed through the valley.
It was the Wugong Clan Leader, whose face had already contorted, having been possessed by the poison bug. He had not been this shocked when the Dharma King had descended upon the possessed insect or when the Red Lantern Society's manager had disrupted his insect cry and severed the valley's Qi flow.
All his plans had been shattered, and he had no choice but to rely on the sorcerers to summon the shaman god, a desperate move that would harm both sides. But who could have imagined that they would still suffer a heavy blow?
In his despair and fear, he continuously emitted insect cries, praying and urging, hoping that the shaman god outside the valley would enter.
Indeed, there was no other way. To be honest, before taking action, he had considered countless scenarios, but not once did he imagine that the shaman god had already descended, only to be blocked outside the valley...
"Ka-ka-ka-ka..."
As he prayed, the shaman god outside also seemed to be in a state of anger, unwilling to endure any longer. Accompanied by the sound of scales scraping and the stench of a foul aura, the massive black shadow once again advanced towards the valley.
This time, the attack was even more ferocious, like a black tide surging back.
The raging malevolent wind and the distorted, mysterious power caused the trees outside the valley to emit cries of pain audible to the human ear. One by one, they twisted into twisted shapes and crashed to the ground.
"It's indeed not easy to deal with..."
Hu Ma suppressed a breath, his heart sinking slightly. That thing was indeed not easy to deal with. As a being that had condensed the mysterious power of countless venomous bugs, the souls of the sorcerers' ancestors, and the flesh and blood of the living, it possessed unimaginable strength.
After being burned by him for so long, it still had the strength to counterattack, even attempting to directly collide with his ghost summoning altar.
He let out a low shout, and the redwood sword in his hand flipped in his palm and was thrust into the ground.
The distorted, mysterious shadows rushed forward, and amidst the rumbling, countless trees snapped, and even the cliffs surrounding the valley had numerous cracks, with rocks falling and raising clouds of dust.
The ghost summoning altar bore the brunt of the impact, directly withstanding the shaman god's assault.
The people in the valley felt as if they were in a nightmare, not knowing when they would be devoured by invisible evil spirits. However, they couldn't see the specifics outside the valley and could only see that red lantern.
It was as if they were being battered by a storm, swaying and almost blown away or extinguished, but that red lantern stubbornly endured, hanging on the pagoda gate, still emitting a reassuring red light.
His heart was increasingly convinced, and he almost wanted to laugh. Using himself as a guardian, he set up the altar, and with the power of the altar, the altar was activated by him. Surprisingly, it had an extraordinary effect.
To break the altar, one must first make this guardian unable to bear it.
However, the year-end guardians, especially those who had ascended to the manor, were indeed very resilient, even if they had other abilities.
"We can't wait any longer..."
Amidst this heart-shaking battle, the most tormented was still Wugong Clan Leader, who only wanted to enter the mineral vein. Countless times, he turned back to look at the pagoda gate, hoping that the red lantern would be blown out or torn to pieces.
But it still hung there steadily, emitting a terrifying red light.
He also wanted to go and assist the shaman god, but he didn't dare approach the red light. From the bottom of his heart, he was afraid, and he also wanted to help Wu Ya beside him, dealing with the three incarnations of Wu Song, who was stalemated with him. However, he didn't dare, and compared to the one outside, he was even more afraid of Wu Song.
Before entering the mineral vein, the venomous bug that the shaman god had possessed was not fully refined. It had the ability to intimidate people's souls with its bug cries, but as the valley's energy flow was scattered by malevolent qi, it was temporarily unable to connect.
As the stalemate continued, no one knew what would happen, but suddenly, he gritted his teeth and directly rushed out of the venom basin, charging towards the mineral vein covered by the black cloth.
The venomous bug, separated from the venom basin, was completely without protection.
But at this moment, he only wanted to enter the mineral vein and was only worried that Wu Song beside him would stop him. However, the result was surprisingly smooth, and as he watched himself rush into the mineral vein, not even one of Wu Song's three incarnations turned to look at him.
It seemed like he didn't care at all about him entering the mineral vein, and his attention was solely on Wu Ya.
Even Wugong Clan Leader was slightly dazed: "If he doesn't care about me entering the mineral vein, then why did he waste so much effort blocking me earlier?"
"Hmm?"
Not far away, Hu Ma also frowned slightly but remained calm, only casting a cold glance at Monkey Wine, thinking about how to collaborate with him to achieve better results.
This guy initially only wanted to kill the shaman god, but now, his purpose seemed to have changed.
As Wugong Clan Leader's thoughts raced, he indeed seized an opportunity, his heart filled with joy. Like lightning, he directly penetrated the red cloth surrounding the mineral vein and even tore through the layers of wooden frames outside, about to enter the mineral vein directly.
This scene startled the nearby meat carvers, including Zhou Datong, but suddenly, they heard a thud, and the venomous bug was bounced out.
It seemed a bit dazed, and a bump had formed on its head.
Everyone was astonished, not knowing what had happened.
Hiding behind a door panel, Old Abacus timidly poked his head out, feeling embarrassed: "I had already sensed that Mr. Zhuang had ill intentions, so I secretly sealed the mineral vein, not knowing what he was up to. So, I also secretly set up an additional layer outside..."
"Another seal..."
"..."
"?"
Below the pagoda gate, Hu Ma, who was borrowing the power of the altar to confront the shaman god outside, had keen ears that didn't miss a single sound. Hearing this, he couldn't help but twitch his lips: "Old fox..."
Taking advantage of the previous patrol, he had secretly set up a ghost summoning formation around the area as a precaution, but he didn't expect this old guy to be busy too...
Poor Wugong Clan Leader.
With this delay, Hu Ma's heart also became more alert, and his brows furrowed. He looked deeply into the valley, thinking, "You reincarnates, can't you be more reliable?"
"I've been as benevolent as I can be, but you still haven't taken action. Do you really want me to reveal my true abilities and deal with you like a malevolent spirit?"
