I furrowed my brow and glanced down at the broken Sabre, feeling a surge of anxiety. Dealing with the three Corpses in front of me would be easy even without the Sabre, but the problem was that it was my only weapon. If those mysterious individuals lurking in the shadows decided to strike now, I would be left to fight them barehanded. This was extremely disadvantageous for me.
I turned my head to scan the surroundings, and for the moment, I found nothing unusual, which eased my mind slightly. I shifted my focus back to the three Corpses before me.
"Quick and decisive; delay brings change," I muttered under my breath, then summoned the Buddhist Power within me, preparing to recite the Rebirth Sutra from the Buddhist Sect to send their souls to the Underworld for reincarnation.
I had no intention of showing mercy to the two malevolent creatures, but when it came to Wang Yan and his companions, I would choose a gentler approach.
I summoned Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva from my Dantian to guard behind me. As I slowly retreated, I pressed my palms together and solemnly chanted: "All Things Have Spirits, All Things Have Souls. All Things Have Fate, All Lives Have an End. Do Not Be Attached to the Mortal World. Born in the Mortal Realm, Return to the Underworld. All Things Have Causes; In the Next Life, There Will Be Consequences. Namo Amitabha Buddha!"
As soon as my words fell, a dazzling golden light radiated from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva behind me. With hands clasped together, Ksitigarbha began to chant Buddhist Mantras that surged toward Wang Yan and his companions.
After being cleansed by the Buddhist Mantras, their souls began to break free from the Evil Spell that had sealed them within their bodies. They started to surge out through the loosened areas.
At that moment, pain etched across Wang Yan's face as he halted his pursuit of me. Instead of chasing after me, he clutched his head in agony and collapsed onto the ground, rolling around in distress.
"Ahhh! It hurts so much! My head is killing me! Jiang Ling, what are you doing? Stop it now!" Wang Yan roared as a crack appeared on his head about the width of a finger. Crimson blood mixed with white brain matter oozed from the wound, staining him completely and filling the air with a strong metallic scent; it was a gruesome sight.
Simultaneously, a translucent shadow desperately crawled out from that wound, trying to escape Wang Yan's head. Upon closer inspection, I realized that this shadow looked exactly like Wang Yan; it was indeed his soul trying to break free.
As soon as Wang Yan's soul poked its head out, he opened his eyes wide and looked at me with intense sincerity. "Kill me! Jiang Ling, please! Just kill me!"
I glanced at Wang Yan's soul and noticed three or four tiny bugs lurking deep within it. After observing closely for a moment, I quickly recognized their origin, but my expression darkened instantly.
“Soul Worm, this is definitely a Soul Worm. No wonder Wang Yan and the others have become puppets in such a short time,” I said, my expression tense as I instinctively took a few steps back to distance myself from Wang Yan and the others.
The Soul Worm is a very rare type of Blood-Sucking Worm, and it is the most insidious among them. They feed on the souls of living beings, and once they occupy a host's soul, they can influence the host's consciousness. Whether human or animal, once a Soul Worm burrows into the body, not even a celestial being can save them.
I turned to glance at the other two individuals and found that their souls had also emerged from the Spirit Cover, with Soul Worms lurking in their minds.
Seeing this scene before me, I couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake my head. With those few Blood-Sucking Worms around, I could no longer send Wang Yan and the others' souls to the Underworld for reincarnation. I looked at their souls with pity, then gritted my teeth, a glint of determination flashing in my eyes as I shouted, “Wang Yan, wait! I will free you from the Suffering Sea right now!”
I infused my internal Buddhist Power into the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Buddha Manifestation behind me. Raising my right hand, I solemnly recited, “Buddhist Sect compassion, nurturing the Buddha's heart. The world is ignorant, blinded by greed. The law breaks all; All Is Over. Buddhist Sect Wunian Palm, extinguish!”
As soon as my words fell, I quickly controlled the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Buddha Manifestation to raise its right hand and strike towards Wang Yan and the other two.
“Bang~~ Bang~~ Bang~~” To eliminate those Soul Worms, I summoned all my internal Buddhist Power. At that moment, I took a deep breath and struck three palms in succession, sending their souls scattering while simultaneously destroying all the Soul Worms within them.
Seeing those Soul Worms eradicated, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Having consumed quite a bit of Buddhist Power, and with no immediate danger present, I dismissed the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Buddha Manifestation.
At that moment, after their souls were destroyed, Wang Yan and the others' bodies gradually settled down, ultimately becoming three true Corpses, lying motionless on the ground.
However, during my full-force strike, the range of the palm technique from the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Buddha Manifestation was too vast and powerful, flattening a nearby crooked tree stump completely.
Just then, a foul odor wafted up from the bottom of the tree pit in front of me. Upon catching a whiff of that smell, I couldn't help but furrow my brows tightly and muttered to myself, “This stench is that of decaying corpses. If it’s this strong, there must be many bodies at the bottom of this pit.”
Covering my nose with my hand, I took a few steps forward and glanced into the pit. There lay a large pile of bones scattered at the bottom; what emitted the foul smell were limbs still covered in flesh and blood. I roughly counted—at least twenty or thirty people had died at the hands of those two monsters.
A cold killing intent flashed in my eyes as I looked up toward the deep mountains on my left. A glimmer of determination crossed my gaze, and I spoke to myself resolutely, "You all wait for me. I will find you and lock you all up in a cell."
