A light breeze blew continuously in the wild, and drops of water slowly fell to the ground, making a ticking sound.

On the earth, a deep dark area appeared, and ripples began to appear in it, bringing with it a deep and suffocating darkness.

Tap tap tap....

Bursts of heavy footsteps came from the front. The sound seemed heavy, but it was also very clear.

Listening to this voice quietly, Chen Ming looked calm and just raised his head silently.

"help me....."

In the desolate wilderness, in the deep darkness, a cold and hoarse voice kept ringing in his ears, breaking Chen Ming's originally confused thoughts.

In Chen Ming's perception, heavy footsteps continued to sound, and in the hazy and deep darkness, a tall figure slowly condensed and gradually appeared on the ground in front of him.

He appeared silently on the earth, not knowing where he came from or where he went. He stood there quietly at this moment, staring at Chen Ming with a pair of scarlet eyes, and kept talking in that hoarse voice.

Said: "Save...me..."

Bits and pieces of hoarse sounds kept ringing, as if they were voices that went straight into the soul. They sounded directly in Chen Ming's heart, causing little ripples in his heart. At this moment, he was affected by an unknown force, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of help.

There is an immediate urge to escape.

But the next moment, the Darui Heart Sutra began to flow, and a pure spiritual power rippled in the heart, silently and completely shattering all thoughts that had been guided by external forces.

Roar!!

A low roar came from the distance.

As if sensing Chen Ming's state, the figure in the distance walked slowly towards Chen Ming.

Heavy footsteps sounded one after another, but Chen Ming seemed to be unaware of these, and just stood there silently, as if he had lost any sense of everything around him.

Along with a whistling sound, a pale arm suddenly spread out from the darkness and grabbed Chen Ming's face.

boom!!

An extremely strong and terrifying bombardment suddenly erupted on the spot. At the next moment, Chen Ming raised his head.

A sharp and boundless sword flashed quickly in the darkness, and then a long black sword suddenly came out of its sheath, and with boundless power, it slashed hard on the pale arm.

boom!!

The sound like the intertwining of gold and iron continued to sound on the spot, and then the next moment, an inexplicable roar suddenly came. The sound sounded like the angry roar of a wild beast, constantly vibrating and undulating on the spot.

On the spot, cut down by this knife, a huge shadow continued to retreat, and it continued to retreat seven or eight meters before slowly stopping.

A whistling sound continued to sound in place.

Standing on the spot, Chen Ming looked calm, looked at the figure standing in the distance, and chopped it off with his sword.

The more violent sword wind flickered in place, and bits of green light continued to light up in place and then dimmed. Bits and pieces of Hunyuan energy were urged to the strongest at this moment, turning into a roaring wind that followed the long sword.

Slash forward.

The endless wind was howling, and the boundless fallen leaves were blown up. At this moment, they danced with the long knife, and whistled forward together. The energy contained in it was absolutely terrifying, and it swept forward directly at this moment.

boom!!

As soon as the sword came out, everything in front of him was swept away instantly. One bamboo forest after another quickly fell down, and the fallen leaves on them continued to fly out.

Rubbles splashed out in all directions, scattering all over the sky, and finally fell to the ground, making a crackling sound.

A pale and decayed arm suddenly stretched out.

At some point, the figure in the darkness appeared behind Chen Ming. At this moment, a hand reached out and reached towards Chen Ming's shoulder.

A cold gaze came to him for an instant, and the next moment, Chen Ming turned slightly to the side and punched directly.

The green light flashed across the palm of his hand. At this moment, Chen Ming could no longer hold back any hands. The Hunyuan energy in his body completely exploded. He directly used all his strength on the palm of his hand and struck hard at the figure in front of him.

Hit it away.

boom!!

The sound of violent attacks resounded on the spot, as if a hammer hit a piece of watermelon hard. The huge figure in front of him exploded directly. The upper half of the body was directly shattered, and the flesh and blood on it turned into countless broken and rotten blood clots.

It fell to pieces on the ground.

The strong and pungent smell of decay passed quickly. Looking at the figure that was shattered by a punch in front of him, Chen Ming's face was stern and he silently withdrew his palm.

A sharp pain continued to come from the arm, accompanied by a corroding sound.

On Chen Ming's arm, a burst of dark yellow light flashed, and the bronze statue skill was operating at full strength at this moment, maximizing the body's defense.

Bits and pieces of black blood continued to drip onto Chen Ming's arms, like the strongest sulfuric acid, making a steady stream of corrosive sounds on Chen Ming's arms.

Feeling the pain, Chen Ming had no expression on his face and just silently pulled his arm back before preparing to leave.

In place, a hazy change is taking place.

"Save...me..." The hazy figure continued to sound, and the voice sounded cold and hoarse, with deep resentment.

After being smashed to pieces by Chen Ming's punch, the figure did not collapse immediately. A broken head was lying quietly on the ground at this moment, with a twisted face facing Chen Ming's back: "Save me...otherwise...

.You...will die too."

Chen Ming paused, turned slightly sideways, and looked at the head that fell on the ground, with a sneer on his face: "I won't bother you."

As he finished speaking, a long black knife shot out of the air again.

boom!!

The bursting wind flickered on the spot, and the green light was extremely dazzling at this moment. It chopped directly on the head and the remaining broken body, making an explosion-like sound on the spot.

In just a moment, the last part of the body of this being exploded to pieces, and the body was completely shattered into pieces of tiny flesh and blood, which were spread directly on the earth, and then slowly disappeared.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Watching all this silently, Chen Ming turned around and continued walking forward.

"This evil power is stronger than it was a few months ago..."

As he walked quietly on the road, this thought flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

This was not the first time he encountered this evil spirit tonight. He had encountered it on Yue Mountain a few months ago, and even had to go down the mountain because of the other party's intrusion.

At that time, although the evil spirit in front of him was strong, it was only too strong. With Chen Ming's cultivation at the third level of Linyuan Sword Technique, although he was not an opponent, he could still deal with it for a while.

But now, only a few months have passed, and this evil has reached this point.

His current strength is at least several times stronger than before, but even so, it is still very laborious to face this evil spirit, and he may even suffer some minor injuries due to accident.

Waves of pain came from my left hand.

Chen Ming raised his arm and looked, only to see that the entire palm of his arm had turned black. It was as if ink had been splashed on it, dyeing his entire arm black.

Black and looks very funny.

A severe pain kept coming from the arm, as if the whole arm was about to be shattered, it was unbearable.

"I don't know how strong this evil spirit is."

Taking back his palm, which had turned completely black, Chen Ming turned around and looked in a certain direction in the distance, muttering to himself.

The evil spirit in front of me is still sealed on the mountain at this moment. It has only experienced a slight differentiation of power, but it also has that kind of terrifying prestige.

Once the evil spirit is completely broken out, with Chen Ming's current strength, he doesn't know if he can deal with it.

"How many existences are there in this world that are as terrifying as that evil spirit?"

Standing there, Chen Ming inexplicably thought of this question, and then the appearance of a beautiful woman appeared in his mind.

There are too many terrifying things in this world. The same is true for the evil spirits on the mountain in front of him, and the same is true for the beautiful woman who forced him to climb Mount Yue.

Chen Ming still has a long way to go before he can reach the top of this world and ensure the safety of himself and his loved ones.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming shook his head, then looked at a path in the distance. After thinking for a while, he left directly.

The next day.

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight in the sky shone on the earth, Chen Ming walked out of his courtyard and prepared to go to the mourning hall where Lu Qi's body was placed.

Halfway along the road, Chen Ming suddenly felt a little surprised.

Compared with yesterday, Yueshan today is much more lively.

At the foot of the mountain, many people walked towards Yueshan Mountain step by step, turning the originally quiet Yueshan Station into a lively place.

However, although he was surprised in his heart, Chen Ming still did not explore the reason before his eyes, but walked straight towards his destination.

Not long after, he walked to a small building and then came to a spacious hall.

In the hall, Fang Jiazheng was sitting there quietly, wearing a plain white shroud, slowly throwing the yellow papers into the fire one by one.

"Chang'an, you're here."

Looking at Chen Ming coming from outside, she said hello softly, with a smile on her face. She seemed to be in much better spirits than yesterday.

"There are a lot of people going up the mountain outside."

Looking at Fang Jia, Chen Ming gently sat next to her, picked up a dozen yellow papers and burned them with her.

"Those are the people who came to participate in the festival."

Looking at Chen Ming, Fang Jia said: "In the past, these people would come down from the foot of the mountain every year on this day, but Chang'an, you only went up the mountain this year, so you didn't know."

"Festival?" Chen Ming was a little confused: "What are these outsiders doing at our Yueshan festival?"

"It's not just our Yueshan Festival." Fang Jia shook his head and continued: "Hundreds of years ago, our Yueshan Patriarch founded the Yueshan Sect in Yueshan. Since then, he has conquered east and west near Xiangzhou and put an end to countless turmoils."

"The imperial court commended the meritorious service and conferred the title of Lord of Yueshan Prefecture on the founder, making him the chief sacrifice of Xiangzhou. This was widely spread throughout the counties of Xiangzhou."

"So every year during the ceremony, a large number of people will go up the mountain to worship the ancestors together."

"Of course, they just need to stay outside and hold the ceremony."

After sitting there and thinking for a while, Fang Jia continued: "We Yueshan disciples usually go directly to the back mountain to hold ceremonies for the ancestors of the past generations."
