Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

In the pitch-black night.

The eerie Lanruo Temple.

A young man, dressed in a moon-white silk robe, with fair skin, handsome features, and an air of refined elegance and aloofness, slowly walked over.

Looking at this handsome and refined young man, Yan Chixia, the Tree Demon Granny, Xiao Lian, and the other female ghosts were all taken aback.

No matter how they looked at it, there was a sense of incongruity between the eerie Lanruo Temple and the young man before them.

This refined and elegant young man doesn't seem like the type to be in a place like this, let alone at this time.

"Who is he?"

Everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Just then, Ning Caichen, who was in the crowd, suddenly paused, and then an undisguised look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Young man, it's you!"

As soon as he uttered that sound, all eyes turned to him.

"Scholar, you mean..." Yan Chixia's expression shifted, his tone filled with surprise.

Ning Caichen nodded excitedly and said, "That's right, Master Yan! This is the young man I told you about, the one who foresaw my impending doom and impending calamity before I even came to Lanruo Temple!"

"I went to ask him for help, and he said the time was right and he would lend a hand. I thought he wasn't coming, but he actually did!"

"That's wonderful, Master Yan! With this young man's help, we're sure to defeat this old hag!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Chixia's face showed a look of sudden realization, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He quietly observed the exceptionally handsome and refined young man before him.

So this is the young man that the scholar Ning Caichen was talking about?

"Young brother, if we join forces today, this old hag is doomed!"

Yan Chixia laughed heartily.

If he were alone, dealing with this tree demon would still be somewhat dangerous, but with the addition of this mysterious young man, the chances of victory would undoubtedly be much greater!

The words were spoken.

Not far away.

Hidden behind broken walls and ancient trees, the female ghosts, including Xiao Lian, who had been spying, suddenly realized what was happening.

So this handsome young man was hired by Ning Caichen to deal with Granny?

"Hmph, so what if we call one more person? Even if there's one more, they're no match for Grandma!"

Xiao Lian said with a cold laugh.

The female ghosts, including Qiuyue, stood nearby, their eyes darting around as they stared at the scene not far away.

Who will win?

At this time.

Upon hearing this, the Tree Demon Granny's swollen face immediately darkened, and she shrieked, "So, these are the helpers you've invited?"

"What can a little brat do to me?"

"None of you will escape today!"

Her eyes flashed with a fierce light, and a demonic wind suddenly arose, clearly indicating that she intended to strike first.

Yan Chixia's expression also hardened, and he secretly channeled his magic power, ready to draw his sword at any moment.

However, just as the two sides were about to take action.

A series of hurried footsteps came from afar.

Everyone paused in unison, instinctively looking in the direction of the sound.

An elderly Taoist priest, with white hair and beard, a lean yet vigorous face, hurried to the boy's side, bowed deeply, and spoke with utmost respect.

"Immortal, I never expected you to arrive as well."

This sound echoed clearly in the howling wind of Lanruo Temple.

A celestial being?!

At this moment, whether it was the Tree Demon Granny, Yan Chixia, or the female ghosts like Nie Xiaoqian and Xiaolian, they all stood frozen in place.

Even the Tree Demon Granny's originally gathered demonic power was momentarily stunned.

"Playing tricks!" She forced herself to remain calm, gave a cold laugh, and at the same time secretly channeled her demonic power to spy on the old man and the young man.

The old Taoist priest had an ordinary aura, but he possessed some Taoist skills and was not to be feared.

But when her gaze actually fell on the boy...

Everything has changed!

The boy's aura suddenly became clear and bright.

Her hair and skin glowed with a faint luster, like jade shining, like moonlight reflecting on her body.

A gentle, clear halo appeared behind his head, neither blazing nor intense, yet illuminating the surroundings.

The bright sunlight shone down, illuminating the dark and gloomy Lanruo Temple as if it were daytime.

"This is... an immortal... an immortal?"

The tree demon's voice trembled, and the ferocity on her face instantly crumbled, leaving only fear and horror.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Caichen, Yan Chixia, Nie Xiaoqian, Xiaolian and other female ghosts were all stunned.

"What is that tree spirit grandma saying?"

"What kind of immortal?"

Before they could even react, the Tree Demon Granny looked shocked and terrified, and tried to run away.

Su Chen shook his head and sighed softly, knowing that he could no longer pretend.

boom!

The pure and ethereal energy burst forth like a tide, as if the purest power in the world had been awakened in an instant.

An invisible pressure suddenly spread.

The air seemed to sink.

Under the oppressive aura, Yan Chixia and the others' expressions changed drastically. They felt as if their chests had been struck by a heavy hammer, and their breathing became difficult. Almost instinctively, they retreated one after another.

This terrifying magical power pressed down on the Tree Demon Granny without reservation.

Her body, which was about to flee, suddenly froze. Her entire body, which was formed from demonic power and yin energy, seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to make even the slightest movement.

His pale, swollen face was a mixture of shock, horror, and disbelief.

This moment.

The female ghosts Yan Chixia, Ning Caichen, Nie Xiaoqian, Xiaolian, and even the Taoist priest Xuanqingzi all showed an undisguised look of shock on their faces.

Su Chen's figure slowly floated up.

As he used his magical powers, the abnormality on his body could no longer be concealed.

In the dim and gloomy Lanruo Temple, a bright moon seemed to suddenly shine.

The bright, gentle light shone down, dispelling the pervasive gloom.

Three thousand jet-black hairs moved without wind, like surging waves of ink in the night. A faint glow appeared on her skin, like the radiance of jade or the reflection of moonlight.

A wisp of pure, ethereal energy emanated from his body, swirling around him endlessly.

next moment.

A faint halo appeared quietly behind his head.

It is neither blazing nor intense, yet as clear as the moon, illuminating all directions.

Under the halo, Su Chen's figure appeared even more pristine, as if he had already transcended the mundane world and stood apart from humanity.

The bright, clear light slowly fell, illuminating the night sky and the Lanruo Temple.

At this moment, Lanruo Temple was as bright as day, as if a bright moon had appeared out of nowhere.

"A deity?" Yan Chixia exclaimed in disbelief.

Ning Caichen was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the scene, feeling that his understanding of the past twenty years had been completely shattered at this moment.

He always believed in the saying, "The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits."

Even though he had seen Nie Xiaoqian with his own eyes and knew that ghosts existed in the world, he never truly believed that gods and immortals really existed.

But now he believes it!

Ning Caichen stood frozen in place, almost forgetting to breathe.

Nie Xiaoqian looked dazed, her eyes filled with awe.

Not far away.

The female ghosts, including Xiao Lian, who were hiding behind the broken wall and the ancient tree, were also completely stunned by this scene.

"It's...it's him..."

"The immortal I saw that day..."
