Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon! Chapter 263

Chapter 263: Chapter 178: Counterattack the Elder (Third Update)

Su Jie's brow split open with blood, as if a third vertical pupil had opened.

The Great Dao is the most essential force of heaven and earth.

Su Jie, by harnessing the power of the Great Dao, was manipulating nature itself, leveraging the power of the surrounding environment.

With the strength of Su Jie's Primordial Spirit, he could only control this level of power for a few seconds, but that was enough.

In a single breath, Spiritual Energy began to surge like a massive funnel, swirling around Su Jie as the center.

At that moment, Su Jie was the master of this realm.

With a flick of his finger, Spiritual Energy, under Su Jie's control, cascaded like layers of giant tsunamis, engulfing Zhong Shiguan's body.

His body uncontrollably rolled, compressed by the tsunami-like surge of Spiritual Power.

The body of the Painting Woman, layer by layer, was eroded away until half of her body turned into nothingness; a single strike had severely injured Zhong Shiguan.

Right at this moment, the Death Decline Curse Cloud spat out by the Thousand-Handed Centipede arrived, hitting the unavoidable Zhong Shiguan.

The terrifying curse power of the Death Decline Curse Cloud could also affect the ghost.

The remaining half of the body of the Painting Woman progressively aged, her skin becoming wrinkled until she couldn't maintain her human form anymore, transforming into an old dressing table with a brass mirror atop it; this was the true form of the Painting Woman.

A hazy orb of light flew out from it, within which a small human figure could be seen–that was Zhong Shiguan's soul.

Su Jie appeared in a few flashes in front of Zhong Shiguan's soul, reached out his hand, and grasped the battered soul in his palm.

“Spare…”

Before Zhong Shiguan could finish his plea for mercy, Su Jie had already clenched his fingers, Palm Thunder erupting in his palm, completely destroying the battered soul.

In the sky, having lost Zhong Shiguan's control, the Heavenly Ghost Map also fell, carried in the mouth of the Thousand-Handed Centipede to Su Jie.

Having observed the dozens of fierce ghosts in the Heavenly Ghost Map quieting down and burrowing back into the graveyard, Su Jie didn't immediately start studying it but looked towards the dressing table at his feet instead.

Fierce ghosts are independent beings, and the death of Zhong Shiguan didn't mean that the fierce ghosts would also die.

It simply meant that from having a master before, they had become masterless, wandering wild fierce ghosts.

Watching the Painting Woman's figure slowly reappear in the brass mirror on the dressing table, Su Jie snorted coldly without bothering to be polite. He continuously struck down with Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder, then let the Thousand-Handed Centipede swallow her, temporarily imprisoning her.

At this time, Su Jie turned to face another Fifth Grade Lantern Ghost.

This Lantern Ghost was entangled with Xiao Fengyuan and Ning Xinyue. Together, they were suppressing the Lantern Ghost.

Seeing this, Su Jie's Primordial Spirit left his body and directly controlled the Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder, reinforcing it with the power of his Primordial Spirit to strike the Lantern Ghost, causing it to tremble violently.

Swiftly, Su Jie appeared in front of the Lantern Ghost. The white lantern flickered, its blood-red eyes blinking, causing Su Jie's skin to slowly dissolve, as if transforming him into a candle wick.

However, with a jolt of his Primordial Spirit, Su Jie removed all negative effects.

Following this, Su Jie, while wielding the Heavenly Might, had the Thousand-Handed Centipede continuously emit Purple Light Rays to dissolve the body of the Lantern Ghost.

The lantern shifted from white to red and floated mid-air, which was the true form of the Lantern Ghost.

Looking at the lantern before him, Su Jie bit his fingertip, letting a few drops of fresh blood drip out.

The fresh blood trickled onto the lantern, immediately soaking in as Su Jie channeled the Nine Nether Ghost Cultivation Technique, starting to try taming the Lantern Ghost.

“Eh, still trying to struggle!”

Su Jie's palm pressed on the lantern, which began to float unpredictably, trying to escape Su Jie's control.

For these wild fierce ghosts, especially those that had stayed in the Heavenly Soul Formation for years, it was very difficult to control them. They were not completely wild, at most semi-wild, and were somewhat controlled by Zou Minzun, which made it even harder for Su Jie to control them.

In response, Su Jie had a simple method, which was to suppress them with his Primordial Spirit.

Compared to the fifth-grade fierce ghost, Su Jie's Primordial Spirit was stronger. Seeing that the opponent was still not behaving, Su Jie took out the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, summoned a large number of Yin Souls, and began a frenzied attack, devouring and damaging them.

Yin Souls were also condensed from souls, and were very effective against the consciousness-dependent existence of fierce ghosts. Although they would be eaten like snacks by the Lantern Ghost in a one-on-one fight, when attacked by thousands together and suppressed by Su Jie, the light inside the lantern gradually dimmed, and one blood-red eye after another extinguished.

After several minutes, the lantern finally stopped struggling.

At this time, inside the sea of consciousness in Su Jie's mind, he formed a slight connection with the lantern.

Su Jie understood that this was a successful capture, and from now on, the Lantern Ghost would also have Su Jie as its host.

However, because of the contract with the Lantern Ghost, it occupied a large area in his sea of consciousness, which meant that the number of fierce ghosts Su Jie could sign and control was limited.

Thinking about it, even Zhong Shiguan, a senior elder of the Heavenly Soul Sect, had to rely on the Heavenly Ghost Map; Zou Minzun also had to rely on the Heavenly Soul Formation to barely manage the fierce ghosts, otherwise they could not control too many of them.

Su Jie was not disappointed, seeing that the Lantern Ghost had taken shape. He then had the Thousand-Handed Centipede spit out the dressing table, repeating the previous operation of capturing the Lantern Ghost, thus forming a contract with the Painting Woman as well.

Thus, Su Jie now possessed two fifth-grade fierce ghosts simultaneously.

Su Jie, with a lantern in his left hand and a brass mirror in his right, chuckled softly, “Evil spirits, reveal yourselves.”

The moment his words fell, a tall figure, with a chilling gaze, slowly emerged at his left side, taking the lantern from Su Jie's hand.

On his right, as the dressing table vanished, the falling brass mirror was embraced by a pair of pale hands, a woman with long hair down to her waist, pale face, and vacant eyes, standing at Su Jie's right side, holding the ancient mirror.

These were the Lantern Ghost and Painting Woman, now quietly standing on both sides of Su Jie, much like protectors, devoid of their previous ferocity and eerie nature.

To be precise, they were like this only in front of Su Jie, their master.

Once Su Jie issued an attack command, they would turn into murderous fierce ghosts, slaughtering countless.

“You've controlled them?”

Xinyue had not disturbed Su Jie just now, but seeing this scene, she could no longer contain her curiosity.

“I am a Demon Cultivator, meddling with souls should be considered part of my day job, right?”

Su Jie smiled and waved his hand, the Painting Woman appeared in front of Xinyue, taking Su Jie's place to pat Xinyue's head.

The cold touch, devoid of any warmth, made Xinyue react like a startled cat, quickly escaping and glaring at Su Jie with irritation.

“Brother Su, your strength is progressing faster and faster.”

Xiao Fengyuan felt quite emotional, as he could barely manage a tie with one of the two fifth-grade fierce ghosts, and there was a high chance he would fail.

After all, fierce ghosts were creatures with exceedingly strange abilities, many of which were hard to combat.

“You guys rest for a bit, heal your injuries, and then we will head to Han Mansion, it's time to leave this place.”

With the addition of both the Painting Woman and the Lantern Ghost to his forces, and the condensation of his Primordial Spirit, Su Jie felt more confident about the actions to come.
