I forged immortality in my past life.

The two returned to the mountain where the masked man had been buried.

"You're finally back. So, did the Daoist sect lose?"

"Why don't you take me to serve the Emperor? Maybe we can strike it rich!"

The masked man had been buried for a long time and was quite bored.

As soon as he saw Li Wu Hui return, he started talking non-stop.

They know I am an elder of the Taoist sect.

How dare you say you want to pledge allegiance to the Emperor?!

Li Wu Hui laughed in exasperation, truly baffled as to where the masked man got his courage!

Or is this how people who have been brainwashed since childhood are?

"The Taoist sect has won."

"Your life is over."

Li Wu Hui said coldly.

Too lazy to listen to his nonsense anymore, he simply lifted the masked man out of the ground with one hand.

puff!

The terrifying force made the masked man feel as if his head and body were about to separate!

But before he could utter a curse...

His head really did split apart.

Then my mind completely stopped working.

Gao Mingyue brought over a pile of dry firewood, lit it with a flint and steel, and with the help of the clothing, the masked man's body quickly began to char and gradually carbonize.

It also smells a bit like barbecue.

The scene, combined with this, creates a starkly nauseating feeling.

But Li Wu Hui and Gao Ming Yue were naturally unaffected by such things.

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

The two waited on the side.

Until the flames burning the masked man were completely extinguished.

Just then.

桀！

A beam of black light suddenly condensed and then shot fiercely towards Li Wu Hui!

"Be careful, senior brother!"

Gao Mingyue saw it, but there wasn't enough time for her to shield Li Wuhui.

Li Wu Hui's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a great terror rushing towards him!

He was like a drowning fish.

I felt a sense of despair from which I was powerless to resist.

But then, Li Wuhui had a sudden inspiration.

He took out a Bagua bronze mirror from his pocket, held it with both hands, and with the mirror facing outwards, he caught the black light perfectly!

"Impossible, damn it!"

"How could a mere Bagua bronze mirror possibly withstand the possession of the Ghost King General! Who exactly are you?!"

"Who exactly are you?!"

The piercing screams were like the wailing of ghosts and howls of wolves!

It only lasted two seconds, but then it disappeared again.

The ghostly screams were extremely unpleasant.

However, Li Wu Hui felt that the tone of this voice was somewhat similar to that of the masked man from before.

"Young Master Feilong wasn't just brainwashed and trained; he was probably a pawn arranged by the Ghost King Emperor even before he was born!"

"Damn it, isn't it a bit of a waste to use such unpredictable methods to deal with low-level martial arts world?"

Li Wuhui shook his head and smiled bitterly.

In the scene just now, his martial arts skills, apart from allowing him to react quickly and take out the Bagua bronze mirror, were completely powerless against the possession by that vengeful ghost.

It seems that of the three extraordinary qualities of Qi in this world, the resilient Qi is indeed the right choice, as it can resist demons!

Unfortunately, I've already made my choice.

Regret is useless.

Moreover, if you don't choose the protective qi...

Even if Li Wu Hui had charged into the enemy lines earlier, he might not have been able to win, let alone protect Gao Ming Yue.

I calmed my racing heart.

thump!

Gao Mingyue rushed into Li Wuhui's arms, anxiously touched his face, and asked worriedly:

"Senior brother, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Wu Hui shook his head and smiled gently:

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

At the same time, golden characters appeared.

[Supernatural powers that endure through eternity have been activated!]

A thousand-year-old ghost from the Dharma-ending Age is trying to possess you, but how could it possibly know?

Your identity in this life is merely your past life, and the power of that past life has not yet returned to your original body. However, it may be reclaimed by you in the future, thus it can also be considered your future life.

[The past life is the future life; this is the supreme status of the unpredictable being of time and space, capable of rejecting all attempts by evil spirits and heretics to possess and tempt!]

[A person who does not exist]

How can one be possessed?

【…】

[A thousand-year-old ghost from the Dharma-ending Age, a general under the Ghost King, was destroyed by a backlash from time and space after attempting to possess a non-existent person!]

[At the place where its soul and spirit were annihilated, the essence of its remaining soul power was caught by you using the Bagua bronze mirror, causing your treasure to undergo a transformation and upgrade...]

It possesses the supernatural power of eternal existence and is immune to all forms of possession and bewitching!

Li Wu Hui's eyes lit up.

In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about being controlled or having his mind influenced.

Just focus on improving your combat power.

However, he is not immune to psychological attacks.

If you encounter an upgrade option to resist mental attacks again, you should definitely choose it.

Otherwise, if another accident like today were to happen, we might not be as lucky as we are now.

They might just be taken away by a single mental attack.

Li Wuhui remained vigilant.

You must learn from your mistakes.

At this moment, the Bagua bronze mirror in his hand had finally completed its transformation.

【…】

[Congratulations! You have obtained an 8th-level treasure – the Eight Trigrams Ghost-Sealing Mirror: It can generate a portable ghost-sealing barrier with a radius of three zhang (approximately 10 meters), resisting mental attacks of level 8 and below, and can seal a ghost of level 8 or below by pointing the mirror at it.]

I received a wonderful treasure.

Li Wu Hui was overjoyed and immediately patted Gao Mingyue's shoulder in his arms, "Junior Sister, I'll show you something."

Then he turned the Bagua bronze mirror over so that the mirror face was facing the two of them.

Wow!

"Senior brother, what is this?"

Gao Mingyue was startled!

However, this is not surprising.

The appearance of the Bagua bronze mirror changed drastically, with a distorted ghost face appearing and disappearing in the center.

It was indeed eerie and terrifying.

Li Wu Hui felt a little apologetic; he hadn't expected the Bagua Bronze Mirror to turn into this grotesque form after its transformation and upgrade.

"Don't worry, junior sister, this is a treasure for exorcising ghosts. Look at this ghost face, doesn't it look familiar?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Mingyue carefully examined the ghost face that was faintly visible on the bronze mirror.

After a long pause, he exclaimed in surprise:

"His face is unfamiliar, but his demeanor is very similar to that of Young Master Feilong!"

Li Wu Hui nodded in affirmation:

"That's right, I subdued his ghost using my methods. I didn't expect that he was not only brainwashed by the Flying Dragon Gang Leader and favored the Emperor, but that he was actually a general under the Ghost King Emperor who was possessed and reborn before his birth!"

"Ghost King Emperor!"

Gao Mingyue's eyes widened.

This was the first time she had ever heard of such a thing.

Even though they had previously encountered traces of the Black Tiger Army and knew that the Emperor Vanguard Army possessed the ability to borrow passage from ghostly soldiers, they only thought it was some kind of hidden secret.

Who would have thought that emperors were all possessed by ghost kings?

No wonder this new emperor inexplicably declared war on the Daoist sect.

Could it be that someone in the higher echelons of the Taoist sect also possesses the same methods of subduing ghosts as Brother Wu Hui, and he did this out of fear?

That makes sense.

Li Wu Hui didn't know if Gao Mingyue could accept it right away, but judging from her appearance, after a brief shock, she seemed to suddenly understand.

I think you can understand that.

"That's right, the Emperor is not human at all, but a ghost king. He can even sacrifice tens of thousands of his own soldiers without mercy. The heart-palpitating drumbeat of the ghost-faced drum should be a special attack of the ghost."

"Previously, this Bagua bronze mirror could only protect myself. Now, having absorbed the ghost of Young Master Feilong, its power has greatly increased, and it can now protect people within a radius of three zhang from mental attacks!"

Li Wu Hui explained the abilities of the Bagua Bronze Mirror and then admonished Gao Mingyue:

"From now on, whenever we march, we should stay within three zhang of you. The Ghost King Emperor is very powerful, and we may encounter even more powerful Ghost King troops in the future!"

Gao Mingyue, unwilling to admit defeat, brandished her fist.

"With my senior brother by my side, we have nothing to fear from the Ghost King!"
