In the forest, I led two female ghosts away from the roadside and deeper into the woods.
"Ultimate Earth, Mystical Arts Have Methods, Three Pure Ones manifest, slay the ghosts and exorcise the spirits! Command!" I shouted, waving the talisman in my hand and striking at the ghost in front of me.
"Hehe, handsome, still using that trick! I'm so scared!" Qing had already gauged my strength. Seeing my palm coming towards her, she didn't dodge but took my strike head-on.
The talisman imprinted on the ghost's body with a crisp sound, numbing my palm, yet Qing showed no signs of injury.
"Hehe, that hurts! Handsome, let me serve you properly!" Qing let out a chilling laugh, feigning injury. Her eyes glinted with malice as her long black hair coiled around my hand like a serpent, quickly wrapping up my arm.
"Oh no, that's disgusting!" My stomach churned; Qing's hair was damp and incredibly slippery. More and more strands wrapped around my hand, making it feel as if I were surrounded by a mass of slimy worms.
"Hehe, handsome, let me play with you too!" A voice came from behind me as another ghost appeared. Her sharp skeletal hand scratched forcefully against my back, easily tearing through my clothes. I felt a sharp pain as her bony claws left long bloody marks on my skin.
"Hehe, handsome, how does that feel?" The Ghost General pressed against my back, and I instantly felt a sticky sensation that was utterly revolting. Even more terrifying was that half of her head protruded from my shoulder; I could see her left eyeball nearly falling out of its socket and almost dropping onto my chest.
"Get away from me!" A surge of fury ignited within me. Although I had no magical power within me, I wouldn't just sit back and let these two ghosts wreak havoc.
"Just wait!" With determination, I bit down hard on the tip of my tongue until it bled, tears streaming from the pain. Tongue Blood is the most potent Yang Qi in the human body, specifically designed to counteract ghosts and would be particularly lethal against these two female specters. Without giving them a chance to react, I sprayed Tongue Blood directly onto their faces.
"Ah! That hurts! I'm going to kill you!" As Tongue Blood splashed onto Qing's face, a large patch of her skin burned away. Her once cute visage transformed into something grotesque and terrifying. The areas where her hair touched the Tongue Blood emitted wisps of green smoke as clumps of hair fell away. She released her grip on my hand and retreated to a distance.
The situation was even worse for the ghost behind me; all of my Tongue Blood sprayed onto her eyes. Her left eyeball was burned out completely and fell to the ground. Her right eye suffered burns as well, filled with blood vessels and shriveling up. The ghost crouched on the ground in agony, covering her eyes with her hands while wailing in pain: "Ah! My eyeball! My eyeball! I can't see! I'm going to kill you and put your eyes in my sockets!"
"Among the thirty-six strategies, fleeing is the best!" I had already used my last resort. Although I had injured the two female ghosts, it was impossible to eliminate them. While they were still recovering, I had a slim chance to escape.
"I need to find the Forgetful Sea Monk; he should come to my rescue!" I resolved in my heart and sprinted toward the Goldfish Temple.
"Child, do you still think you can run? You're truly daydreaming!" The two female ghosts stood up again, exuding a strong murderous aura that was even more powerful than before.
"Die!" The blue-haired ghost flickered and transformed into an afterimage. By the time she reappeared, she was already in front of me. Her black hair lunged toward me again, but this time her target was not my arm; it was directly aimed at my head, leaving me no chance to survive.
Just as I intended to dodge to the side and avoid her hair, the other female ghost appeared behind me. Her sharp bony claws gripped my body tightly, and no matter how I struggled, I couldn't break free from her grasp.
"Am I really going to die?" A sense of despair washed over me as I felt the blue-haired ghost's hair wrap around my head. My eyes could no longer see any light; the world suddenly turned pitch black. I could feel her sticky hair crawling across my face, slipping into my nostrils and filling my mouth.
Disgusting? No, at this moment, I had no mind to feel disgust. My breathing became labored, and my consciousness began to fade; I was close to death.
"Separation Fire descend, exterminate the spirits, evil beings obstructing the path, turn to dust! Lingling, Earth Spirit, Supreme Old Lord, heed my command! Separation Fire Talisman, decree!" Qu Liang appeared behind the female ghosts at that moment. She threw a silver talisman into the air and quickly formed hand seals while silently chanting incantations.
As Qu Liang completed her final hand seal, the silver talisman in midair emitted a bright light. The talisman ignited without fire and transformed into a ball of red flames that descended upon the two female ghosts and me.
The flames struck the female ghosts directly, shattering their souls into pieces and nearly causing them to dissipate entirely. The sparks that landed on my hair burned away all of the ghosts' hair into ashes, allowing me to breathe air once more after nearly suffocating.
The Separation Fire Talisman unleashed Separation Fire specifically designed to exterminate evil spirits, its power exceeding that of my previous Tongue Blood technique by tenfold or more. The Separation Fire targeted malevolent entities and caused me no harm.
After regaining my breath, however, I did not awaken; instead, I felt a heaviness in my head as my body collapsed onto the ground and slipped into unconsciousness.
"What are you?" The two female ghosts looked at Qu Liang in fear. Their abilities were not high; they could handle ordinary people without much trouble, but when faced with someone who knew Daoist Arts, their only fate was to be exterminated.
"You can go die!" Qu Liang didn't even glance at the two female ghosts. She raised her hand and struck, instantly scattering their souls. The two ghosts who had almost killed me were easily obliterated by the half-hearted Qu Liang, which felt incredibly ironic to me.
"Jiang Ling, how did you end up like this?" Qu Liang looked at me lying on the ground, her expression complex. She took a deep breath, her emotions slowly calming down. She smiled at me and said, "Jiang Ling, no matter what you become, I will never give up on you!"
Just as Qu Liang finished speaking and was about to wake me up, a figure appeared in front of her. It was the Forgetful Sea Monk from Goldfish Temple.
The Forgetful Sea Monk clasped his hands together and bowed to Qu Liang with a warm smile, saying, "Dear benefactor, Jiang Ling has a connection with our temple. Could you please entrust him to me for a while?"
Qu Liang recognized the Forgetful Sea Monk but looked at him warily and asked, "What do you want to do with Jiang Ling?"
The Forgetful Sea Monk stepped closer to Qu Liang and whispered a few words in her ear. Gradually, the wariness in Qu Liang's eyes faded away. By the time she finished listening to the Forgetful Sea Monk's words, she was completely convinced.
"Then I will leave it to you, Master!" Qu Liang bowed in gratitude to the Forgetful Sea Monk. He returned the gesture with his hands clasped together and then carried my body as he walked toward Goldfish Temple.
