"Darn! What is this thing!"
"brother Aragaki... Ghost race...it's the Ghost race!"
The elderly woman slowly raised her head and said in a hoarse voice, "The girls of Emei, this old body just wants to live a good life with her son. Why do you have to pursue me so relentlessly?"
"What's going on?" Aragaki Nigaki stood in front of Ke Lingfei, glancing at the Emei disciples one moment, and then at the elderly woman the next. The Emei disciple was hit by Aragaki Nigaki's The power of gods and demons, and the spiritual power inside his body surged. He couldn't even stand steadily, let alone continue fighting. Only Ruoqing stood facing him with a sword.
Ruoqing glared at Aragaki Nigaki, "A month ago, the old woman came into the city to buy things. She fell while going downhill. She was already plagued by illness... and no one was willing to help her... so she lay on the ground for two hours... by the time Liu Yilong found her, it was already... too late..."
Liu Yilong Immediately retorted upon hearing this, "Nonsense! My mother is fine! You... don't spout nonsense!!"
"No one helped? Lying there for two hours?? How is that possible!" Aragaki Nigaki found it hard to believe.
Ruoqing sighed and said, "The place where the old lady fell is not remote, it's just in an alley off the main road in Longchi City. There are at least 800 to 1,000 people passing by there every day, but not a single person was willing to help her."
"It's impossible... what you're saying isn't true!!"
"Liu Yilong... in fact, your mother had already left on that day... her soul turned into a ghost due to resentment on the seventh day and has been casting spells on you to stop us for this month." Ruoqing eyes were red, "Your mother is already dead..."
"My mother is not dead! She's living well! She can eat, drink, and sleep... can a ghost do that?" Liu Yilong was very emotional, "Mother? They say you're already dead... nonsense! You tell me, is it true?"
"Yes! How could a ghost eat and drink?" Aragaki Nigaki raised his question.
"Are you really the Demon King Aragaki Nigaki? You don't even understand this?" Ruoqing stared at him, looking puzzled.
"Brother Aragaki was once injured and lost his memory by a Taoist from the Hanging Gardens Palace," Ke Lingfei explained, "Brother Aragaki, all beings have their own Spirit Tower, including the Ghost race."
"I know this."
"The Spirit Tower not only stores spiritual power, but also has special effects. And the effects of the Spirit Tower vary for each race," explained Ke Lingfei.
The "Spirit Tower" of the "Ghost race" is called "ghost bones." "Ghost bones" can enable the "Ghost race" to achieve a "blur effect" or materialize. The former allows them to move through walls and houses, making them impervious to any martial arts skills. Materialization, on the other hand, is the opposite. Materialized "Ghost race" behave just like ordinary people, being able to eat and sleep. They are almost imperceptible without using spiritual power to detect them.
"Are they that powerful?"
The "Ghost race" with the "blur effect" has strong spiritual power, while those materialized have strong martial skills. The "Ghost race" can manipulate between the two states at will.
Liu Yilong Urgently looked at his mother, hoping she would give a negative answer.
"Old lady, your son Liu Yilong is still alive! Your presence as a member of the Ghost race by his side is of no benefit to him. At best, it shortens his life, at worst, it turns him into a living dead person."
"That's enough!!" elderly woman shouted, her anguished voice mixed with anger, "Human nature is despicable, deceitful, greedy, and selfish! You... do you know how I spent those two hours? Watching them pass by one by one, none willing to lend me a hand. That kind of despair... none of you will understand!! I was killed by indifference...! All humans... should die!!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yilong finally couldn't hold back anymore. He knelt on the ground and wailed, "Mother... Mother... I... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
"Child... Don't be sad... Mother will always be by your side... even though I'm already dead. These people are no different from those who stand by and do nothing! Mother just wants to live a peaceful life with you, but they still won't leave us alone. I will deal with them..."
As she spoke, the elderly woman's spiritual power surged. A sudden spiritual shock turned the thatched cottage behind her upside down. The surroundings were in chaos, with the wind raging and dust swirling.
"She's only been dead for a month, why is the spiritual shock so strong?" Aragaki Nigaki exclaimed.
"The Ghost race is different from other races. Most living beings' cultivation levels are determined by the length of their practice, but the Ghost race, in addition to that, also has grudges. The stronger the grudge, the stronger the spiritual power, and thus the higher the spiritual level," explained Ke Lingfei, covering her mouth and nose as she stepped back slowly.
elderly woman emitted a green light all over her body, walking step by step towards Ruoqing. The latter stood with a sword in front of her chest, ready for battle. Under the powerful spiritual shock, Ruoqing found it very difficult to take a step back. "Materialize! It's now!!"
Ruoqing urged her spiritual power and fiercely thrust a sword in the raging wind, with a speed so fast it was almost imperceptible. The elderly woman faced the sharp sword calmly, without flinching or dodging. Ruoqing had thought she would strike with her sword, but she unexpectedly passed through the elderly woman along with her sword, hitting nothing but air, and almost falling down.
"Time waits for no one," the elderly woman said. She turned around and grabbed Ruoqing from behind, slamming her heavily to the ground. Ruoqing groaned and passed out, while the other disciples moved back in fear, unable to muster any strength.
"Old lady! What she said makes sense. You being by Brother Liu's side like this will kill him! If you really care for him... leave him alone. You're already dead, you don't belong in this world," Aragaki Nigaki advised.
"Human race All Must Die!"
Before the words fell, an elderly woman suddenly appeared in front of Aragaki Nigaki, her rough and lifeless hands grabbing his shoulders in an instant.
Ke Lingfei raised her Bone Whip and swung it towards the elderly woman's face. The latter suddenly blurred effect, and the Bone Whip passed through her, hitting the ground instead.
"It's now! brother Aragaki!"
At the words, Aragaki Nigaki joined his fingers and suddenly pointed them out. A sword with an orange glow burst from his fingertips, piercing the chest of the elderly woman! Aragaki Nigaki was momentarily stunned, thinking he had never seen this color before, but the confusion quickly dissipated.
Face to face, less than a foot apart. Even immortals can't escape at such a close distance.
With a clang, the sword shadow and the elderly woman were both inserted into the tree trunk.
"Well done, Brother Aragaki! After her blur effect, we couldn't hit her, but she couldn't catch you either. But... when did you learn this move?"
"Si Ji used this move to force me to use the Annihilation of Gods and Demons. Even if I don't know the spell for this move, I can still roughly imitate it by following his lead!"
Liu Yilong saw his mother's soul nailed to a tree, and he rushed up in a panic, "Mother! What's wrong? Are you okay? I'll pull you out!" With that, he grasped the light sword and pulled back with all his strength.
"How could an ordinary person possibly move it?"
"Don't bother... my child... remember... it was that group of numb and selfish people who killed your mother... humans are not trustworthy..."
Liu Yilong cried, "Mother... today I met an old lady. She is similar to you in age and appearance... she fell down, and I helped her up. But she turned around and said I had bumped into her! She insisted that I compensate her... Mother... helping with a kind heart only to be slandered, and those who coldly watched are the culprits! Mother... let's leave together..."
"Child... get up... it's cool underground. You must live well... kill those who have wronged you, and those who have coldly watched over me! Let them accompany me below. Do you hear me?!"
Liu Yilong stood up, wiped away his tears, and said firmly, "Rest assured, Mother! Soon... very soon, you will be able to see them."
"Liu, when will this cycle of revenge end? Wake up! They just didn't help, they are not the real culprits..."
"Shut up! I don't want to hear those high-sounding principles and nonsense! It's not you who's been falsely accused, it's not your family members falling to the ground with no one to help. You have no right to preach to me."
Aragaki Nigaki Suddenly remembered a long-ago famous saying: Do not experience others' suffering, do not advise others to do good.
He lowered his head in silence, his wrist turned, and the light sword immediately dissipated and turned into a stream of fireflies flying back. Suddenly, a powerful force surged into his body like an electric current.
The whole body, including every single hair, is trembling.
Both hands, both feet, thighs, and arms are flickering like short-circuited light bulbs.
"Ah! brother Aragaki! Your body is blur effect!!" exclaimed Ke Lingfei in surprise.
At the same time, the elderly woman under the tree trunk turned into dust and scattered in the wind from head to toe. Only Liu Yilong's desperate and sorrowful cry echoed in the pitch-black night sky.
"You have taken over the Spirit Tower of the Ghost race - ghost bones, and merged with it."
An old voice sounded not far away.
