Slaying God: The Agent of the Ancestral Witch, Starting with the Nine-Turn Mysterious Art

"solved?"

"solved."

Lin Qiye glanced at Gu Tianchen, then at Zhao Kongcheng, who was already dead in his arms, and said with a wry smile, "I'm most afraid of owing favors to others. You've protected my whole world, and what can I do for you?"

After a long time, Lin Qiye's eyes were firm and he spoke slowly:

"In exchange, I will guard your world for ten years."

Zhao Kongcheng was lying in a pool of blood, as quiet as if he was asleep.

A ball of light golden in color was floating above him. It was Zhao Kongcheng's soul.

As the black-robed old man in Pangu Temple shouted "Soul return", Zhao Kongcheng's soul slowly flew into the temple.

Gu Tianchen frowned. It seemed that the power he used to kill the Ghost-Faced King's real body was given by the black-robed old man in Pangu Temple.

He sank his consciousness into the Pangu Temple and entered with Zhao Kongcheng's soul.

"you are……"

Gu Tianchen looked at the black-robed old man with curiosity.

There is one missing from the remaining eleven statues. I wonder which of the twelve ancestor witches this one is.

"My name is Shebi Shi. I am moved by your friend's spirit of refusing to yield even in death. It so happens that I know some magical powers to control souls. I couldn't bear to see him die, so I took action. You won't blame me, right?" asked the old man in black robe.

"Senior, what are you talking about? I am very grateful to you for saving my friend. Do you have any way to resurrect him?" Gu Tianchen asked hurriedly.

"Well..."

Shebishi was in a bit of a dilemma.

"Hahaha, you old poisonous guy, I let you show off, and now you've been slapped in the face, right?" Zhu Rong sneered with gloating pleasure.

I have been teaching Gu Tianchen magical powers these days and learned a lot of new words, which are just right for making fun of the old poisonous creature.

Shebi Shi glanced at Zhu Rong and said, "Things have changed over the years, but your reckless nature hasn't changed at all."

"Did I ever say that there is no resurrection?"

"Is there hope?!" A glimmer of expectation flashed in Gu Tianchen's eyes.

"Have you ever heard the story of Nuwa creating humans out of clay?" Shebisi asked.

"Of course, I'll go to the garden and dig some for you, old man." Gu Tianchen couldn't wait.

"Wait a minute."

Shebisi stopped Fang Tianchen and said slowly, "All living things have spirits, and the human race is the best among them. If you want to condense a new body for your friend, the ordinary mortal world in this world will definitely not be able to do it."

"What do you need?"

"The origin of earth, the Nine Heavens Xirang."

"Um... do you have any?"

"I don't have any."

Gu Tianchen: (ー_ー)!!

"Then what the hell are you talking about?!"

"But don't worry, my friend. I will find a way to get the Nine Heavens Xirang. Your friend's soul will be handed over to me for safekeeping." Shebi Shi said.

"Senior, it's not that I don't believe you, but you can't even leave this Pangu Temple right now, so where are you going to get a treasure like the Nine Heavens Xirang?"

Gu Tianchen pointed to the gate of Pangu Temple.

At this time, there was an additional task at the gate, which was the condition for Shebisi to go out.

The difficulty is much higher than Zhu Rong's.

Conditions for Shebi Shi to go out: Devour the soul of a god who possesses the law of death.

Just kidding, no matter which mythological system, the god of death is one of the most difficult characters to deal with, and devouring their soul is harder than climbing to the sky.

Gu Tianchen had a premonition that this little old man in black robe would never be able to leave Pangu Temple in his lifetime.

Shebishi smiled slightly, "Who says we have to go outside to find the Nine Heavens Xirang?"

"Okay, old poisonous creature, stop keeping us in suspense. Don't worry, little brat. When my sister Hou Tu wakes up, she will have the Nine Heavens Xirang in her hands. Then I will let this old poisonous creature use the soul-soothing method, and she will definitely be able to save your friend." Zhu Rong said carelessly.

Gu Tianchen's eyes lit up. Yes, among the Twelve Ancestral Witches there is also Hou Tu Niang. It is said that she controls the six reincarnations. Maybe by then she won't even need the Nine Heavens Xirang and can directly resurrect Lao Zhao!

Shebi glared at Zhurong and said, "You're so anxious, you can't hide anything."

Zhu Rong slammed the halberd in his hand to the ground, sending out a blazing flame. "What the hell, you old poisonous creature? You want a fight?"

"No, no, no, I admit defeat. I hope that Lord God of Fire will not hold my faults to account." Shebisi quickly waved his hands and admitted defeat.

His magical powers focus on the use of poison and soul. When it comes to fighting, few of the Twelve Ancestral Witches can defeat this hot-tempered and reckless man.

Even Gonggong, who mastered the water-based magical power to suppress the fire-based magical power, was defeated by Zhurong. He didn't want to be pinned to the ground by this fire-based brute just after waking up.

With the awakening of Shebi Shi, Gu Tianchen gained three more magical powers, namely: [God's Falling Poison], [Moon of the Undead] and [Eye of the Netherworld].

[God-Falling Poison: A deadly black poisonous mist spreads around the body. Cultivating it to the extreme can cause the fall of a god.]

[Moon of the Dead: Summons a blood moon that can command the undead and launch soul attacks]

[Eye of the Netherworld: Can see through phenomena to the essence of the soul of things]

With these three magical powers, Gu Tianchen's combat power has been greatly improved.

"Senior, I'd like to ask you to take care of my friend's soul." Gu Tianchen bowed to Shebisi.

"Don't worry, my friend. I will take good care of you." Shebi Shi nodded.

"The two elders, please reminisce about the past. I will take my leave."

Gu Tianchen's consciousness returned to itself.

Inside Pangu Temple.

Zhu Rong looked at Shebi Shi and said with a smile, "Old Poisonous Creature, it's been so long since we last met. Let's catch up."

Shebishi glanced at the flaming divine halberd in Zhurong's hand, swallowed hard, and said, "We can reminisce about the past, but fighting is not allowed."

"Oh, it's so boring just to reminisce about the past. Let's talk while we fight."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Rong swung the divine spear wrapped in flames towards Shebi's corpse.

"Damn it, you really think I'm afraid of you? Beat me if you want!"

Countless black mists filled with deathly energy spread around Shebi's corpse, making it look eerie and terrifying.

……

old Town.

Hongying came over, soaked all over, breathing heavily, with a black box on her back.

"Xiangnan, I'm in the old town. Where is Lao Zhao?"

"Junior Lin Qiye, I am here to see General Zhao Kongcheng off in triumph!"

Hongying looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Qiye holding Zhao Kongcheng's body, and Gu Tianchen holding the Ghost Face King's head, slowly walking towards her.

……

Ten minutes later.

A small black, mangy dog ​​walked over on the ground covered with knife marks.

There was a small cloth bag hanging around its neck.

Xiao Hei came to the place where Zhao Kongcheng died in battle. A gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes and he spoke in human language.

"The soul is back!"

But after a long time, there was no movement from the soul bag around his neck.

"Has the soul returned?"

Xiao Hei Lai tried again, but the soul bag still didn't respond.

"That's impossible. It's only been a quarter of an hour. Shouldn't the soul dissipate so quickly?"

Just as Little Black Lai was puzzled, a teasing voice sounded from behind him.

"Wangcai, what are you looking for?"
