After Guo Huai returned to Cuiyun Peak, Zhao Ming still came to him enthusiastically and said, "It's Peak Master Bai who has arranged a task. I want to ask you if you want to take it. After all, you are new here and I have to give priority to you."
When he was really dozing off, someone gave him a pillow. Guo Huai asked: "What is the mission and how much should you contribute?"
"It seems that you are short of contribution points!" Zhao Ming said with a smile: "You are going to a country of mortals. A ghost appeared there. Some time ago, the sect had sent a team of five Qi-training disciples there. , but only one person escaped, saying that this ghost may be from the foundation building stage. "
"Yinhun is generally not much stronger even in the foundation building stage, so the sect only gives two thousand contribution points. With your strength, you can naturally handle it easily. Are you going?"
Guo Huai smiled and said: "Of course I went. I have been very short of contribution recently. I can make a little bit!"
"I still have more than 20,000 points in this identity tag. You can use it!" Zhao Ming reached out and handed him his own identity tag.
Guo Huai waved his hands hurriedly, how could he ask for more contribution points from the other party!
Zhao Ming has taken good care of himself along the way, and Guo Huai can no longer trouble the other party.
"I accepted this mission, so I have contributed something! You should take it back quickly!" Guo Huai accepted his wish but refused his identity tag.
The two talked again, and Guo Huai went to see Peak Master Bai.
Peak Master Bai is a peak foundation-building monk with unfathomable cultivation. Peak Master Bai first exchanged some pleasantries with Guo Huai, then changed the topic and asked, "Guo Huai, do you have any relationship with Patriarch Zhou?"
Ancestor Zhou? Zhou Dai?
Zhou Shaowu’s grandfather?
Guo Huai shook his head and said: "I have only met Old Ancestor Zhou once from a distance. We have no relationship!"
Master Bai Feng saw that Guo Huai was unwilling to tell the truth, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just told him to be careful and not to live up to the sect's expectations of him.
Guo Huai couldn't understand why it was just an ordinary task, so serious. What does this have to do with Patriarch Zhou?
Could it be that Patriarch Zhou took care of me because I saved Zhou Shaowu, but Zhou Shaowu wouldn't be so kind!
Since he couldn't figure it out, Guo Huai stopped thinking about it. He left Cuiyun Peak, set up the escape light and flew out of the mountain. After flying for half a month, Guo Huai finally arrived at this mortal country called Wu Kingdom.
Guo Huai used his spiritual consciousness to sweep away. There were also some warriors in this mortal country, most of whom were in the acquired realm. The number of warriors was far less than that of the Zhou Kingdom across the continent.
Thinking of this, I wonder how Xiaohu is doing as emperor in Zhou Kingdom? Have the lives of ordinary people in Dazhou improved?
Guo Huai decided to wait until he broke through the golden elixir stage before returning to Hengduan Continent. He was still not sure about the country he had established, so he still wanted to go back and take a look.
Wu State, a mass grave outside the border city.
Guo Huai lowered his head and looked at the mass graves, which were shrouded in clouds during the day. He couldn't help but frown. The Feng Shui pattern here was surrounded by three mountains. The mountains on three sides blocked the sun. Over time, it gathered into a sinister atmosphere.
The people who died in vain here in the border city have been buried here for thousands of years, which further aggravates the yin energy here. It is possible that a powerful foundation-building ghost will form over time.
After Guo Huai walked into the mass grave, he clearly felt the temperature drop. There was a cold wind here, there was insufficient light, and the entire mass grave was gray.
Guo Huai knew that this was caused by evil spirits. The only way to change this place was to break the feng shui here, but he also needed to get rid of the big ghost here first.
The deeper he went, the more tattered coffins and withered bones were on the ground. Guo Huai also saw several Qi Refining Stage disciples wearing Yuqing Sect costumes dead there with miserable faces and stiff heads.
They died with expressions of fear on their faces. They must have encountered an extremely terrifying existence. They should be the same group of disciples who came to do the mission last time.
Guo Huai took several people's storage bags and shot several fireball charms on them. The raging fire burned them to ashes.
He no longer walked deeper, but laid out the Five Thunder Formation on the spot. Being cautious has always been an important criterion for Guo Huai's life.
After setting up the formation, Guo Huai added a water shield to himself and continued deep into the mass grave. He saw a locust tree more than ten feet high growing in the innermost part, surrounded by nine huge black coffins. locust tree.
Kowloon pulls the coffin!
Guo Huai said in surprise.
This is not a natural occurrence but a man-made arrangement. There is a ghost cultivator here!
Guo Huai was sure that the roots of the locust tree had penetrated deeply into the nine coffins surrounding it. Each of these coffins should contain nine virgins, all of whom were tortured to death and then put into the coffins. , this is an extremely vicious formation.
This formation is extremely vicious, but it is not advanced. Presumably the people who set up the formation are not high in cultivation either!
Guo Huai took out a dozen fireball charms and threw them at the nine coffins and the locust tree.
"Boom boom boom!"
The fireball spell produced a violent explosion, which not only blew up the nine coffins, but also set the coffins on fire. The locust tree was hit by the fireball spell but did not suffer any damage.
A gust of wind howled and swirled out of the locust tree, and a slender ghost looked at Guo Huai coldly, making a harsh sound like glass rubbing against gravel: "Here comes another monk who is willing to die! Let me eat your soul today!"
Guo Huai's spiritual consciousness swept away and he realized that this was the ghost cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building. It was not very powerful for Guo Huai, but it was not easy to completely solve it. Guo Huai decided to use the Five Thunder Formation to solve it. After all, the thunder method It is the nemesis of all monsters and monsters.
Guo Huai decided to tease it.
"Your Majesty, don't eat me! I'm leaving now!" Guo Huai turned around and ran away.
The ghost made a jeering sound: "You won't be able to escape once you get here. See how I eat you!"
I saw the Yin Ghost wave his hand, and endless Yin Qi attacked Guo Huai. If the monk was in the Qi Refining Stage, the Yin Qi would definitely invade his body, but it was of no use to Guo Huai in the Foundation Building Stage.
The water shield on Guo Huai's body flickered a few times, and he continued to rush outside with his head tied. Naturally, Yin Gui refused to let Guo Huai go, and chased after him with a roar. He saw that Yin Gui had reached the preset location of Guo Huai. Five Thunder Formation.
Guo Huai stopped and pressed his fingers to the Yin ghost. There was a thunderous thunder, and a thunder and lightning with fireworks appeared in the sky and struck the Yin ghost in the air.
The ghost screamed shrilly, and then the ghost body was annihilated by the power of the sky thunder, turning into a black smoke in the air.
Guo Huai sighed: "This Five Thunder Formation is still easy to use. It can deal with ghosts in one go! If I didn't have this Five Thunder Formation, I'm afraid it would still take a lot of effort to deal with this ghost."
This locust tree seemed to be at least a thousand years old. Guo Huai recalled the record in the "Baicao Illustrated Book" that this kind of locust tree would produce a section of soul-nurturing wood in the heart of the tree over time.
This locust tree is said to be thousands of years old, so it must have treasures like this.
Guo Huai took out his middle-grade spiritual sword and split the locust tree in half with a wave of his spiritual sword. Only a round wooden bead glowed with light blue light.
Guo Huai said in surprise: "Soul-nurturing beads!"
