Chapter 702: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 74

"Call the souls!" When the Black Mountain Old Demon saw Yan Chixia and the others escaping, he immediately transformed into a human head and chased the three people. Fortunately, after the soul-calling technique took effect, it would directly generate a temporary path leading to the world of the living in the underworld. Yan Chixia and the others could directly return to the world of the living through this temporary path without having to look for a way out in the underworld.

With Yan Chixia flying at full speed, the Black Mountain Old Demon's head attack could not catch up with the speed of the three people, and he could only watch them return to the world of the living.

In the human world, at the foot of the Black Mountain, as Ruyi circled left and right twice and kept calling out the names of Yan Chixia and the other two, Zhiqiu Yiye and the others suddenly felt that the temperature around them had inexplicably dropped a lot. Just when Zhiqiu Yiye felt that he was about to freeze to death, a gloomy and eerie door suddenly appeared in mid-air. Although this door was completely invisible to Zhiqiu Yiye and the others' naked eyes, everyone felt a gust of cold wind when the door opened.

The souls of Yan Chixia and the other two flew out of the gate and rushed straight towards their bodies. At the moment when their bodies returned, the soul-summoning bell in Ruyi's hand suddenly became quiet.

"They're back!" Ruyi said in surprise, "Quick, go check on Taoist Master Yan and the others!"

The little monk Shifang was the first to run to Master Baiyun and try to wake her up, while Ning Caichen and Fu Yuechi ran to Fu Qingfeng to check on her. Seeing Fu Qingfeng awakened, Ning Caichen and Fu Yuechi were pleasantly surprised, "Great, sister, you're back!"

Great! I didn't expect Fu Qingfeng to come back with Master Yan and the others! Ning Caichen could finally put his worries aside. When Ruyi originally proposed to call back the souls of Master Yan and Master Baiyun in advance, Ning Caichen was a little worried that doing so would leave Fu Qingfeng alone in the underworld.

Fortunately, in the end Miss Song decided to give it a try and summon Fu Qingfeng's soul as well, and thus brought Fu Qingfeng back with her.

"That's great, Qingfeng is back, Taoist Yan and Master Baiyun are fine, it's great!" Ning Caichen looked at Master Baiyun and Yan Chixia who had also woken up, and the guilt caused by his selfishness was finally let go. He was only concerned with being thankful and didn't care at all about the wounds on Yan Chixia and Master Baiyun.

After Yan Chixia woke up, he immediately reminded Ruyi to leave: "Hurry up, let's get out of here!"

Ruyi and Yan Chixia exchanged glances and immediately thought of the key point. They immediately said to the little monk Shifang who was still healing Master Baiyun and Zhiqiu Yiye who was helping him, "The Black Mountain Old Demon is about to catch up. We can't stay here. Let's go!"

When everyone heard this, they realized that the danger was not over yet. Without even having time to celebrate, they horrifiedly carried the injured Master Baiyun, Yan Chixia and others on their backs and followed Ruyi to leave.

Unfortunately, Ruyi and the others were still a step too late. With a loud "boom", the entire Black Mountain suddenly began to shake violently, and a huge crack appeared in front of Ruyi and the others, blocking their way.

Dark clouds began to accumulate in the sky at some point. The clouds were extremely large, covering the entire sky and blocking out the sun. Although it was still daytime, Ruyi and the others could only see darkness in front of their eyes, as if it were night.

"The Black Mountain Demon is coming!"

Seeing the dark cloud, Ruyi knew that the Black Mountain Demon had arrived, and they would not be able to escape unless they defeated him now.

Everyone looked at the crack in front of them with fear and panic. They didn't know when the crack started to expand, and now it was almost reaching their feet. Only one step away would make them fall into it.

"Senior, what should we do now?" Zhiqiu Yiye turned to ask Ruyi. At the moment, the experienced Yan Chixia and Master Baiyun, one seriously injured and the other unconscious, not only could not help, but also needed everyone's protection. The only ones who could be counted on were Zhiqiu Yiye and Ruyi.

"I can't escape, I have to fight!" Ruyi had a premonition that sooner or later he would have this battle with the Black Mountain Old Demon. If he won, he would get the Black Mountain Old Demon's merit light ball, break through the shackles of immortals and gods in one fell swoop, complete the mission and leave this world. If he lost, then he would die.

The incense clone appeared again. This time, Ruyi did it without reservation. After absorbing all the incense power in the incense clone, he took back the separated wisp of consciousness from the incense clone into his body. This was the last battle, and he had to go all out. After this battle, if he won and died, it would be his fate. There was no need to keep this incense clone.

The Black Mountain Old Demon has now completely transformed into his original form. A huge black stone mountain plus the Hall of the Dead decorated with two red lanterns on the stone mountain, the whole together makes up the Black Mountain Old Demon's true form.

The Black Mountain Demon transformed into countless stone arms and slapped them towards where Ruyi and the others were. In an instant, the earth shook and dust rose up. In such an environment, apart from Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye who could fly and barely avoided the attack of the stone arms, even the young monk Shifang had no way to avoid it. Ning Caichen, Fu Yuechi and the weak Fu Qingfeng had to hold tightly to the big tree beside them to barely avoid being taken away.

Realizing that the size difference made Shibi too clumsy when facing Ruyi and the others, the Black Mountain Old Demon opened his mouth and sucked all the ghosts in the entire Wrongful Death City into his mouth. Then he opened his huge mouth and spit out a fierce dark wind towards Ruyi and the others. The dark wind contained countless ghosts and surrounded Ruyi and the others in the blink of an eye.

Zhiqiu Yiye, the little monk Shifang and Ruyi blocked Yan Chixia and others behind them and attacked desperately, barely blocking the attacks of numerous ghosts.

However, no matter how the three attacked, the ghosts around them seemed to be endless and did not decrease at all. However, as their physical strength was depleted, the situation of the three became more and more difficult, and wounds began to appear on their bodies. "Why are there so many ghosts? If this continues, we will never be able to defeat them!"

Although Zhiqiu Yiye's words dealt a heavy blow to their morale, Ruyi and the others knew that he was telling the truth. Ruyi also knew that the situation was not good. She thought about whether she should just use half of the merit power in her body to make a big move and get rid of this group of ghosts first, but considering that behind the ghosts was the real body of the Black Mountain Demon, Ruyi thought about it and decided not to use it.

"Ghost..."

Suddenly, Ruyi had an idea, and thought of something, "To deal with ghosts, we don't necessarily have to destroy them. It's also possible to trap them."

Ruyi took out a roll of canvas from the space and threw it into the air. The canvas unfolded in the air and a suction force came from the canvas, sucking in the ghosts from all directions. Soon, all the ghosts sucked into the Black Mountain Old Demon's stomach were sucked up by the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" in Ruyi's hand.

Without his useful thugs, the Black Mountain Demon became even more angry. He was restricted by his body, and most of his attack methods required the use of other media. Now that the ghosts of the City of the Dead were gone, the only things the Black Mountain Demon could use were the corpse monsters that died in the Black Mountain.

The corpses had stiff bodies and had difficulty moving. Although they were quite strong, they were much easier to deal with than incorporeal ghosts. The Black Mountain Old Demon could not move at will. Even if he used the skill of moving mountains, he could only move within the Black Mountain territory, and the speed was very slow. But even so, Ruyi and the others had no way to leave. The Black Mountain Old Demon had released the ghost den, and unless he was destroyed, no one inside could leave.
