The attitude of the water ghost was extremely intense, and blood began to seep from its eyes without warning.
I knew this was a sign that it was about to go berserk!
For anything that is an Evil Spirit, if it cries at you, it means there is resentment in its heart. If you can resolve that resentment, you might be able to send it into Reincarnation, and the person can still live. However, if it smiles at you, it clearly wants your life. Nothing will work against it unless you have a powerful backing like a Master to scare the Demon away. Such a presence can subdue it because very few Dirty Things dare to offend a Master. A Master roams the Yin-Yang Realms, and anyone who harms those under their protection is essentially doomed. No Dirty Thing enjoys being hunted by a Master, so if you truly have such a powerful ally, you might just scare off whatever wants your life, allowing you to survive!
But if blood flows from the eyes of a Dirty Thing, it basically means it is prepared to perish along with you. Even if a Master arrives, it will still charge at you because it has already made preparations for mutual destruction.
So when I saw blood starting to seep from the water ghost's eyes, I was completely stunned!
What grudge or grievance could this be?
It seemed that we weren't the ones who initiated the conflict first, right? I was almost decapitated! How did this water ghost end up being the first to explode in anger?
"Hmph!"
Zhengyang let out a cold snort from his nostrils; he had already awakened from his meditation. His cold gaze fixed on the water ghost as he gently flicked his fingers.
In an instant, a stream of Taoist Sect's Spiritual Energy surged directly into the water ghost's forehead.
This was a Master's Daoist Spiritual Energy, capable of shattering the soul of a Yin Person with just a flick. The water ghost's Daoist Practice was not high; how could it withstand such a level of Spiritual Energy? Especially since it targeted the forehead!
The forehead on a living person corresponds to the Yin Tang point, which has functions related to vision and concentration; it's one of the most important extraordinary points on the human body! But for a Yin Person, this becomes a fatal spot where all Vitality gathers in the forehead because this is where focus is concentrated!
The "spirit" of human Vitality is the manifestation of the Three Souls and Seven Spirits. The Yin soul relies on this forehead to condense its Three Souls and Seven Spirits so that it can reveal itself in the Yang realm. Ultimately, this is where the life gate of the Yin soul lies!
Zhengyang's flick was aimed directly at this critical point. At that moment, the water ghost clutched its forehead and let out a piercing scream, its body nearly fading into nothingness. This was only because Qingyi had held back; otherwise, that flick would have definitely shattered its soul!
"I spare your life for now since you have not committed any acts of killing."
Zhengyang closed his eyes once more and said calmly, "You'd better behave. Next time, I won't hold back!"
The atmosphere around Zhengyang was undeniably powerful. With a snap of his fingers, the water ghost became much more subdued. The blood in her eyes gradually receded, and she lay on the ground, seemingly afraid of Zhengyang.
Damn it, how could she not fear me? Did she really just ignore my earlier display of power?
I exhaled deeply. In truth, the water ghost's Daoist Practice wasn't very high. If I hadn't had my head submerged in the water and been caught off guard by her hair wrapping around my neck, she wouldn't have stood a chance against me. However, it would still be somewhat difficult to completely suppress her with sheer momentum unless I resorted to Frenzy! Now that it was clear this water ghost was connected to the creature from the Corpse Raising Ground, every piece of information she held could potentially save our lives. It would be a loss to eliminate her, so I suppressed my irritation and tried not to think about how she had almost taken my head off moments ago. Instead, I decided to sit cross-legged in front of her and scrutinize her for a while. Seeing that she showed no unusual reactions, I asked, "Has the creature from the Corpse Raising Ground awakened?"
The water ghost remained silent.
Well, she's surprisingly loyal! It seemed that without some strong persuasion, she wasn't likely to speak.
I muttered to myself and then coldly said to her, "Fool! Still dreaming of Atlantis dominating the world? Your beloved Atlantis has been gone for ten thousand years; it has long since fallen apart, and its people are nearly extinct. Yet here you are, continuing to dream!"
I noticed that this water ghost seemed unaware of what had happened to Atlantis, so I used this to provoke her, gradually guiding her to hate the Three Clear Daoists. If that worked, she might stand on our side!
I was taking a gamble, betting that she didn't know the truth!
It was a simple tactic of provocation.
It was clear that this water ghost cared deeply about Atlantis; exploiting her emotional weakness with such provocation was most effective, albeit somewhat despicable.
As expected, my gamble paid off. The water ghost's eyes turned red with anger as she shouted, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Our nation is the strongest nation; we possess an advanced civilization that has surpassed the world for thousands of years! No one can extinguish us!"
At this point, it seemed something clicked in her mind. Her expression changed suddenly as she muttered in a daze, "Could it be those despicable Athenians and Easterners? It must be! The great prophet once said that far beyond our nation, many civilizations have emerged. Each of these civilizations is progressing—farming and rising from barbarism—inevitably creating great civilizations that threaten our Atlantis! It must be those vile Athenians and Easterners behind this, right?"
What do you call it when someone brings you a pillow while you're asleep? This is exactly it!
In an instant, I felt immense joy inside me while maintaining a serious expression as I recounted what I had learned about Atlantis's history during this time!
As soon as I finished speaking, the water ghost was momentarily stunned.
"The Prophet? You mean the great Prophet, whom we all revered, ultimately led to the destruction of our civilization? Is it the Heart of Atlantis that nurtured Atlantis which sank the very place where our ancestors resided?"
After a long pause, the water ghost suddenly shook her head and murmured, "Even at the end of Atlantis, he controlled the young monarch? Impossible! Why would he do such a thing?! He had no reason to carry out all this, after all, Atlantis was a country he loved!"
During this time, her words were interspersed with lengthy and complex Ancient Greek phrases. With my limited understanding, I couldn't grasp what she was saying, but it was clear even with my eyes closed that she was cursing me!
"A person who schemes against his own nation can still love your country?"
I scoffed. "To be precise, he used threats to control the lords! That is how he manipulated your nation, gradually pushing it towards destruction to achieve his hidden agenda!"
The water ghost abruptly stood up from the ground.
I truly didn't believe I would have the chance to pry open this water ghost's mouth and understand the situation regarding the Corpse Raising Ground!
We knew nothing about the Corpse Raising Ground at this point. Now that I had successfully incited this water ghost to stand on our side, I wasted no time and directly asked my most pressing question: "What exists in the resting place of Voldemort besides the messengers sent by your Prophet and Voldemort himself?"
To my surprise, the water ghost nodded and finally began to slowly reveal the situation regarding the Corpse Raising Ground.
