Chapter 447: Righteousness fills the air, and ghosts and gods scare away

“Om-“

A beam of golden light appeared out of nowhere and enveloped Lu Yang. Mysterious witchcraft symbols emerged, protecting him like armor.

Xu Shan, who was walking in the middle of the team, realized that something was wrong the moment Lu Yang responded. He immediately activated the formation plate in his hand to emit golden light to protect Lu Yang.

At the same time, Lu Yang’s own protective sword energy was also activated, making him become like a hedgehog, and the sword energy poked around his body.

But Shang Lu and others did not see anything that attacked Lu Yang.

However, the golden light, witchcraft and sword energy that protected Lu Yang became turbulent at this moment.

The sword energy made a series of “bang bang bang” sounds, and instantly shattered into countless pieces. The armor made by Jin Guang Wuhua was also about to break.

What was even more bizarre was that Lu Yang seemed to have something around his neck, and his body was instantly lifted up to a height of several meters and suspended there.

Everyone looked up and clearly saw a circle of blood on Lu Yang’s neck.

It was as if there was an invisible rope tightly around Lu Yang’s neck, trying to hang him here.

In fact, if it weren’t for the reminder from the Supervisor, which allowed Lu Yang and Xu Shan to respond immediately and use the golden witch text and the protective sword energy, Lu Yang would not have been strangled to death, but would have been head-severed.

Even though he had temporarily escaped death, Lu Yang’s situation was still quite bad.

Jin Guang Wu Wen couldn’t hold out for long, and the sword energy protecting his body couldn’t protect anything.

The wound on Lu Yang’s neck was visibly getting deeper, and the speed was not slow. Blood was gushing out, and the scene was no less than that of a pierced intestine.

Many of the rotten corpses and evil spirits fighting for paper money in the blood river smelled the fresh scent of blood and raised their heads to look towards the paper bridge, their eyes flashing with greed and salivation.

However, they were obviously afraid of the strange creature that appeared on the paper bridge. Although they wanted to climb up the paper bridge to get a piece of the pie, they did not dare to act. They could only sniff the fishy smell in the blood river and swallow their saliva.

Everyone was very anxious, but at this moment, they still couldn’t see what the thing that attacked Lu Yang was or where it was.

They wanted to relieve the strangulation of Lu Yang’s neck, but they were afraid that if they acted rashly, they would not only fail to free Lu Yang, but also hurt him. They could only attack Lu Yang from all sides, hoping to destroy the invisible rope that hung Lu Yang with an intensive offensive and find the hidden monster.

However, after focusing all our fire, it had no effect and we didn’t hit anything.

On the contrary, Lu Yang, who was hanging in the air, seemed to have been drained of all his strength in just a breath or two, and he didn’t even have the strength to kick.

At this moment, Shang Lu suddenly felt a chill on his forehead.

It was Sanniang who stretched out her tender little hand and covered Shanglu’s forehead, where the strange tumor had grown due to the influence of Tubo’s chaotic divinity.

A magical scene then happened.

Shang Lu felt a tearing pain on his forehead, as if something was trying to drill out of the strange tumor.

The liver god statue in the temple of the five internal organs responded at this moment, emitting wisps of green light that shot straight towards Shang Lu’s forehead.

The next moment, Shang Lu had a strange feeling.

It was as if a third eye had grown on his forehead.

Moreover, this “eye” can allow him to see things that his original eyes cannot see – Shang Lu used the third eye on his forehead to see that there was a circle of white hair on Lu Yang’s neck.

These white hairs were quite strange. They looked extremely thin, but neither Xu Shan’s golden witch text nor Lu Yang’s protective sword energy could block them slightly but could not destroy them.

Lu Yang stretched out his hands and scratched his neck, trying to pull out the white hair that was hanging him, but it was to no avail.

Shang Lu even saw that several times, Lu Yang’s hands touched the white hairs but passed through them directly and he couldn’t grab or pull them at all.

“These are threads of resentment.”

Sanniang was afraid that Shang Lu would become suspicious if she spoke behind him, so she stretched her neck over Shang Lu’s shoulder and reached in front of him. She turned back and said to him, “You can use the positive energy you have cultivated to tear it off.”

To be honest, this scene was even scarier than the sound behind me.

Fortunately, Shang Lu has gotten used to it. He is just worried that if Sanniang turns around, she will also be attacked strangely from the paper bridge.
Sanniang read the worry in Shang Lu’s eyes and immediately shook her head and said, “I am a ghost, not a human. The weird things here have no interest in me.”

After hearing this and seeing that Sanniang did not encounter any strange attack, Shang Lu immediately felt relieved.

And from the moment Sanniang reminded him, he started reciting “The Art of Righteousness”.

At this moment, the righteousness was mobilized, and Shang Lu shouted loudly: “When the righteousness is full, ghosts and gods will be afraid. With the great energy, heaven and earth breathe together – evil cannot defeat good, defeat it!”

“Whoosh-“

A stream of righteous energy gushed out from Shang Lu’s mouth and turned into a white ruler with translucent words such as “benevolence”, “righteousness” and “reason” written all over it, which hit heavily on the thread of resentment that was strangling Lu Yang’s neck.

These threads of resentment that could not be caught by hands or cut by swords, when met with the righteous energy cultivated by Shang Lu, were like lard meeting a hot knife. They had no power to resist and were cut in an instant.

Shang Lu was overjoyed: “Righteousness really works!”

This is not only effective, it is a natural nemesis!
Lu Yang got a chance to catch his breath. He took deep breaths and encouraged the witch energy in his body to flow to his neck, trying to block the wound and stop the bleeding.

At the same time, Shang Lu used his hands as a guide to control the white light ruler transformed from positive energy to roll up all these strange threads of resentment.

Suddenly, a strange roar exploded in Shang Lu’s ears.

The voice was extremely sharp, as if it contained thousands of sharp needles, trying to pierce Shanglu’s eardrums and destroy his brain.

At the same time, there was a chaotic aura hidden in this roar, which attempted to pollute Shang Lu’s mind when he was in pain, causing him to fall into confusion and go crazy.

Unfortunately, the roar was directed at the wrong target.

Shang Lu’s mental resistance was strong enough to withstand even the whispers of the Mad God. Apart from causing pain in his ears and causing blood to flow from them, this strange roar did not cause any other effects on him, nor did it make him confused and crazy.

Instead, this roar suffered unexpected harm – when it wanted to contaminate the Chinese macaque, a chaotic divinity suddenly burst out from the tumor on the Chinese macaque’s forehead, instantly contaminating it.

Shang Lu felt the stinging pain in his ears stop instantly, and the strange roar that tried to pollute him disappeared and turned into a painful cry.

“I found you too!”

The Rat Patrolman, who was walking at the end of the team, released a rolling witchcraft aura from his body, which transformed into a large net and covered the direction where the painful screams came from.

At the same time, Shang Lu controlled the Ruler of Righteousness and pulled the strange thread of resentment off Lu Yang’s neck.

After leaving the body, the resentment was no longer invisible, and turned into streams of corrupt and foul-smelling poisonous blood. Seeing the target, Lu Dao, Bai Lingxu, and Gong Shuling’s Wujia attacked the poisonous blood together.

The poisonous blood that had become visible was no longer untouchable, and was soon hit by everyone’s witchcraft, erupting into raging flames.

At the same time, Lu Yang fell from mid-air. Fortunately, although Lu Dao did not look back, he still noticed his abnormality at the first time and released a magical energy to support him in time, otherwise he would have fallen heavily on the paper bridge.

It might even smash a hole in the paper bridge and it would fall into the river of blood.

Bai Lingxu couldn’t help but sigh in amazement when he saw this scene: “Junior Brother Lu, what’s wrong with you? Could it be that this poisonous blood has sucked away all your strength?”

Lu Yang really wanted to tell him that after the poisonous blood entangled his neck, all his strength and energy were really sucked away, otherwise he would not have been unable to even kick his feet just now.

But when the words came to his lips, Lu Yang suddenly realized that Bai Lingxu was behind him and the voice came from behind him. If he responded, wouldn’t he be attacked again? The wound on his neck was still bleeding. If it happened again, his head would probably be torn apart.

So Lu Yang quickly swallowed his words back into his stomach and almost covered his mouth with his hand.

“Rest well and don’t move.”

Lu Dao turned his back to Lu Yang and gave him an order, then he made a hand gesture and released a healing spell to him to speed up the healing of the wound on his neck.

In this brief moment, the witchcraft net released by the Rat Patrol really locked onto a target.

The target was behind everyone, but Lu Dao had a way. He pinched his fingers and chanted a spell, allowing the witch energy to condense in front of him and transform into a mirror, reflecting the situation behind clearly.

When everyone saw this magic mirror, they saw a cloud of black gas swirling on the paper bridge behind it.

This black air was covered by the witchcraft net of the Rat Patrol, and it could not escape no matter how hard it tried.

As Rat Patrol chanted the spell, a blood-colored witchcraft text immediately appeared in the witchcraft net and bombarded the strange black air like a cannonball.

The black air was dispersed in an instant, allowing people to see a faceless ghost hidden in the black air.

This faceless ghost clearly has no mouth, but it can make sounds.

It was first severely damaged by the chaotic divinity in Shang Lu’s body, and now it was bombarded by the witchcraft curse. Its soul was in turmoil and it was in danger of collapsing at any time.

The faceless ghost let out a shrill wail, trying to arouse everyone’s sympathy and let it go.

Not to mention, the wailing coming from its soul does have a bewitching power that makes people soften their hearts involuntarily.

If it were someone else, they might really have a “virgin heart” and let the faceless ghost go, but then it would take the opportunity to release its resentful thread and cut off its head, thus repeating the story of the farmer and the snake.

But this trick is of no use at all when it comes to the Rat Patrol.

Rat Patrol’s mental resistance was strong enough that he pretended not to hear the Faceless Ghost’s pleas and kept chanting spells rapidly. Every time he chanted, a bloody spell would emerge from the witchcraft net and imprint itself on the Faceless Ghost’s body.

In an instant, the faceless ghost was covered with witchcraft spells, and then with a loud bang, its soul was blown away, leaving only a faceless face, floating on the paper bridge.

The Rat Patrolman originally wanted to pick up the faceless skin, and even extended his witchcraft aura to it, but changed his mind.

The dangerous place of the underworld is full of weirdness. This faceless mask might be a trap. It is better not to be greedy.

After making sure that the faceless ghost had been destroyed and there was no other strange thing behind him, Lu Dao snapped his fingers, and the witch mirror floating in the air immediately shattered, turning into a witch rain, falling on Lu Yang, helping him recover his exhausted strength.

Lu Dao’s witch mirror is taking advantage of the loophole in the paper bridge.

You can’t look back on the paper bridge, so Lu Dao thought of getting a mirror to check what was happening behind him.

Fortunately, there was Shanglu in the team, which improved his luck and prevented his risky move from causing any new strange dangers.

But Lu Dao didn’t dare to continue.

When taking advantage of a dangerous place, you must know when to quit and not be greedy.

Otherwise, it is very likely that new strange things will arise in the dangerous place to make up for this loophole.

Because the witch mirror disappeared, no one saw that the faceless face at the back was taken away by a female ghost in a red wedding dress.

At the same time, Shang Lu noticed that the wax in several lanterns on both sides of the paper bridge they were on began to melt rapidly.

Drops of creamy yellow wax flowed from the lanterns and dripped into the river of blood.

There were several rotten corpses and evil spirits that stretched their necks in the blood river. After being hit by the wax drops, they immediately caught fire with shrill screams and rolled around in pain in the blood river. In a few seconds, the rotten corpses were burned to dry bones, and the evil spirits were burned to pieces.

The movements of these rotten corpses and evil spirits made everyone notice the wax dripping from the lantern. They all speculated whether it was a treasure or a trap, and they were very hesitant about whether to take some as a backup.

“Don’t move, let me try.”

As Lu Dao spoke, he paced to the side of the paper bridge, and first made hand gestures and chanted a spell, hoping to use his witchcraft energy to receive the wax. However, he found that the wax was indeed strange and could not be received by his witchcraft energy at all. So he took out a gourd from his arms and carefully placed the mouth of the gourd under the lantern.

The wax entered the gourd, but did not ignite a flame, and instead burned a hole in the gourd.

However, Lu Dao did not take it lightly. Instead, he was extremely vigilant, wondering if anything strange would happen after he received the wax.

Not only him, but Shang Lu and others were also on high alert.

However, after a few breaths, the paper bridge was still calm and nothing happened.

Seeing this, everyone felt relieved and divided into two teams, each going to one side to get the wax. Even Lu Yang struggled to get up and followed Lu Dao to get the wax.

These waxes can burn and kill corpses and evil spirits, and may even have unexpected miraculous effects in the future, so everyone wants to collect more.

As the seven men were connecting with the wax, the paper bridge beneath their feet suddenly became soft and began to shake again.

No, not shaky.

Although the seven people did not look back, they heard a series of “crackling” sounds behind them, like something like bamboo strips breaking. Then, they heard a few “plops” and “plops” sounds, and something fell into the blood river.

This paper bridge is really starting to collapse!

“Go, let’s go!”

Lu Dao didn’t bother to get more wax. He put away the gourd, waved the guide flag, and hurriedly called on everyone to cross the bridge quickly.

(Happy Valentine’s Day~~)
