I had affixed several Talismans to the Peach Wood Sword and charged towards Liu Wanting.
Liu Wanting was severely injured within Qu Liang's body, her strength reduced to about half of what it usually was. Coupled with the suppression of the Seven Seven Demon Suppression Formation, she was no match for me.
"Take this!" I rushed in front of Liu Wanting, thrusting the Peach Wood Sword swiftly towards her chest.
Liu Wanting's body reacted sluggishly; she couldn't dodge in time and was pierced by my Peach Wood Sword just below her collarbone.
"Ah! I will kill you!" Liu Wanting's eyes turned blood-red as she let out a furious roar. A layer of black flames ignited around her, and her aura surged dramatically.
Seeing Liu Wanting's transformation startled me. I released my grip on the Peach Wood Sword and stepped back several paces, exclaiming, "Damn it, are you trying to throw away your life? Burning your soul!"
The soul is crucial for both humans and monsters. Once you burn your own soul, it becomes incomplete, losing the chance for reincarnation.
However, at the cost of burning one's soul, temporary power can be gained, just like Liu Wanting before me.
"Ah!! Damn you, filthy mage! I will kill you, drink your blood, and eat your flesh!" Liu Wanting's eyes were completely consumed by rage. Her hands transformed into claws as she pulled the Peach Wood Sword from her body and snapped it in half with a fierce twist.
Watching Liu Wanting like this made my brow furrow; my feelings were complicated. After all, we had been involved for some time. Although I knew her feelings were insincere, I still couldn't bear to see her become what she was now.
I shook my head at Liu Wanting and sighed. "Since it has come to this, I don't want you to suffer any longer. I'll send you to the Underworld."
I picked up the backpack on the ground and took out a Money Sword from inside. It's worth noting that a consecrated Money Sword is over ten times more powerful than a Peach Wood Sword. Moreover, the Money Sword is an ancient artifact passed down through generations; its numbers are scarce, and each one used is one less in existence. This was the only Money Sword I had.
The Money Sword's power is immense but harder to control. Typically, a little fresh blood smeared on the Peach Wood Sword suffices; however, the Money Sword requires Tongue Blood for its ritual.
Suppressing the pain, I bit my tongue until it bled and sprayed a mouthful of blood onto the Money Sword. Then I affixed a Talismans onto it and tossed the Money Sword into the air, quickly performing several Seals above it with my hands.
"Six Ding Six Jia, descend Divine Weapon! Hear my command and slay the evil! Guard Sword Technique, decree!"
As soon as my words fell, a red light flashed across the Money Sword. It floated in mid-air, circling around my head several times with a certain spirit of its own.
I executed the final Seal, feeling more than half of my Vital Energy drain away; my body began to feel unsteady. Watching Liu Wanting charge towards me, I took a deep breath, pointed my right hand at her, and shouted: "Demon-slaying Divine Sword, go!"
The Money Sword above my head responded to my command, its tip pointing at Liu Wanting, and then it transformed into a streak of red light, flying toward her head.
"Get away from me!" Liu Wanting felt an intense danger as the Money Sword approached. She clawed at it with both hands, fiercely swiping at the blade.
Her nails scraped against the Money Sword, creating a shower of sparks. I stood not far away, hearing the harsh sound of friction, like steel nails scraping against a metal plate.
With all her might, Liu Wanting knocked my Money Sword to the ground, but she was also pushed back a step by its momentum.
"Ah!! Die!" Seizing the opportunity while the Money Sword lay on the ground, Liu Wanting rushed over and stomped hard on it with both feet.
Although I hadn’t expected Liu Wanting to withstand a blow from the Money Sword, I still had a backup plan. I formed a Seal with my right hand, pointed toward the Money Sword, and shouted, "Scatter!"
As soon as my words fell, the Money Sword beneath Liu Wanting's feet immediately split apart into numerous copper coins that scattered across the ground.
I bit my tongue again and spat a mouthful of Tongue Blood into the air. Then I formed several Seals and shouted, "Six Ding Six Jia, Divine Weapon has spirit! Manifest your form and turn money into soldiers! Command!"
After casting my Seal, the Tongue Blood in the air transformed into a mist of blood that flew over the scattered copper coins.
Once those coins were touched by my Tongue Blood, tiny armored soldiers emerged from their coin holes, each about the size of a thumb.
These soldiers had somewhat blank expressions and wielded various weapons—some held long swords, others long spears or massive axes; they were armed with all sorts of weaponry.
Watching these soldiers made my heart ache. They were Ghost Soldiers I had summoned from the Underworld, and the copper coins on the ground represented the cost of summoning them.
Once I completed my ritual, these Ghost Soldiers would absorb the essence of the copper coins, rendering them lifeless scrap metal. Even if I gathered all the coins back and reformed them into the Money Sword, it would never shine again.
This was precisely why every time I used the Money Sword, it became one less effective weapon.
Despite my heartache, I didn’t forget my purpose. As soon as these Ghost Soldiers appeared, I pointed at Liu Wanting and cast another Seal while shouting, "All Ghost Soldiers, please assist me in exterminating this demon!"
As soon as I finished speaking, all the copper coins rose into the air. The Ghost Soldiers atop them brandished their weapons and charged toward Liu Wanting.
"Ah!! Go die!" Liu Wanting felt the murderous intent of the Ghost Soldiers. She clenched a copper coin in her hands and squeezed it tightly.
"Woo~~" After crushing the Ghost Soldiers in her palm, they transformed into a wisp of black smoke, dissipating into the air. In reality, Liu Wanting had only destroyed a clone of the Ghost Soldiers, which did not significantly impact the Ghost Soldiers of the Underworld.
The other Ghost Soldiers showed no signs of fear. Taking advantage of Liu Wanting's momentary lapse in defense, they charged at her from all directions.
As the saying goes, a swarm of ants can kill an elephant!
Under the relentless assault of the Ghost Soldiers, Liu Wanting held on for about a minute before being battered and bruised. The black flames surrounding her had extinguished, and she lay on the ground in pain, unable to move.
Seeing Liu Wanting in such a state made me feel pity. I cast a Seal and shouted, "That's enough! I ask you all to stop, Ghost Soldiers!"
Upon hearing my command, the Ghost Soldiers ceased their attack. They nodded at me and then transformed into black smoke, vanishing from sight.
The copper coins that had been floating in the air fell to the ground as there was no one to control them.
I walked over to Liu Wanting and sighed as I looked at her. "You're in this condition; let me take you to the Underworld. If you stay in the Hall of Reincarnation for about ten years, your soul should recover!"
Liu Wanting glanced at me with a complex expression. After a moment of silence, she finally nodded and said, "Jiang Ling, you are a good person. Please take me to the Underworld!"
