Chapter 452: Collecting Evil Ghosts and Swallowing Curses

“woo woo woo woo……”

Suddenly, a sound of ghosts howling and wolves howling could be heard in the City God Temple of Corpses. The sound was so sharp and piercing that it went straight into people’s brains.

Not only does it confuse people’s minds and give them splitting headaches, it also causes the restrained essence, qi and magic power in the body to show signs of disorder.

I saw several soul flags surrounded by blood and black air being sacrificed by He Zei.

Hundreds of evil spirits emerged from the blood and black air.

They had ugly and ferocious faces, and under the influence of the He thief, they cried and pounced on Shang Lu and his seven companions, wanting to tear out their souls and shatter their spirits.

At the same time, as the thief chanted a strange spell, he sprayed blood on the strange treasure in his hand.

Waves of curse power immediately appeared in the City God Palace of Corpses, like dark clouds of destruction, pressing down on Shang Lu and his companions.

The cursed dark cloud exuded an extremely strong aura of resentment and evil, which made Shang Lu and his companions feel unwell before they were even touched.

There is no doubt that once the body is enveloped by the cursed dark cloud, it will be corroded immediately.

In order to maintain the integrity of the sacrifice, the Grain Thieves held back some strength and did not allow the curse cloud to erupt completely, lest the seven Shanglu people be corroded and turned into rotten flesh and smelly blood.

However, once the powerful resentful and evil energy in the cursed dark cloud penetrates into the body of a living person, it will immediately severely damage the body’s functions and cause the person to die instantly.

This group of thieves were very cunning. Although they used the treasures in the Corpse City God Temple to suppress Shang Lu and others, they did not rush forward for close combat. Instead, they released rampant ghosts and cast curses.

Because the mountain ghost had specifically instructed that Shang Lu and the others were extremely cunning, and told them not to be careless and not to take it lightly until they had actually beheaded these people and dug out their hearts as a sacrifice.

The thieves had just suffered a loss, so they are naturally very cautious now.

Even though they did not think that the seven Shanglu men could turn the tables, they did not want to be bitten by the “trapped beast” when they were about to kill the seven men.

However, they were not in a hurry to kill the seven Shanglu men immediately.

They wanted to torture Shanglu and the other seven people slowly, making them suffer to the fullest extent of pain, and then kill them.

In this way, not only can they avenge themselves for being hunted down by the witch officials, but they can also make the seven Shanglu people full of fear and despair before they die, making them taste better as sacrifices and being liked by the mountain ghosts.

Shang Lu glanced around with the corner of his eyes.

The “profit” ingots that had been weighing on the Rat Patrol and Lu Dao had completely fallen off and turned into a pile of dirt. The “reputation” ingots were also shaky and were showing signs of vanishing into thin air.

However, it will take some time to completely break free from the shackles of “fame and fortune”.

As for the situations of the others, they were even worse than those of Zishu Xunshou and Lu Dao.

“We have to delay a little longer.”

Shang Lu gritted his teeth, activated the Danshan Skill, dragged the heavy blood-red shackles, took two steps forward towards the evil spirits and the cursed dark clouds, and brought Zishu Xunshou and Lu Dao and the other six to guard behind him.

“The mantis is using his arms as a chariot, and he is overestimating his own abilities!”

When the thieves saw Shang Lu’s move, they burst into laughter.

“We want to see how you, wearing the shackles of the City God, can stop our rampant ghosts and the curse we unleash!”

“Even if your cultivation was not suppressed, you would not be able to stop our rampant ghosts and curses. Now you can’t even use 30% of your cultivation. I’m afraid that if you encounter our rampant ghosts and curses, your body will be torn into pieces!”

Several of the thieves who had sacrificed their soul flags said in a fierce voice:
“This is the underworld, and we have been given the authority of the Yin God and the ghost messengers. The ghosts under our command are much stronger than those in the outside world! Do you think you can stop them? Wishful thinking!”

“Go ahead, take this boy’s soul and spirit! But don’t eat it secretly! His body and soul are all sacrifices to the Immortal Lord. Anyone who dares to eat them will be killed without mercy!”

Under the guidance of these wheat thieves, hundreds of evil ghosts rushed towards Shanglu with screams before the cursed dark clouds, and submerged Shanglu in an instant like a flood that broke through the dam.

During the whole process, the thieves did not see Shang Lu make any moves to resist, nor did they sense any fluctuations in witchcraft and magic power.

This made them laugh out loud again in surprise:

“I thought this kid was really capable, but this is all he got?”

“So taking two steps forward is not to block the rampant ghosts and curses, but to feed them at close range?”

“Does this kid want to feed the ghost with his own body and starve our arrogant ghost to death? This is really making me laugh to death!”

But after a short moment, these thieves could no longer laugh.

It was as if an invisible force had strangled them by the neck, causing them to open their mouths but make no sound, and their eyes bulging out.

It was only because they noticed that after drowning Shanglu, the hundreds of evil ghosts did not continue to move forward to reap the souls of Lu Dao, Zishu Xunshou and others.

Instead, he froze in place, as if he had been hit by a spell.

No matter how those thieves who sacrificed soul flags and released rampant ghosts controlled him, he did not move.

Moreover, Shang Lu’s soul was not brought back by the ghost.

problem occurs……

But, what could happen?

Just as a thief was about to chant a spell and release the poison to check the situation, everyone in the Corpse City God Temple saw that the evil spirit that had submerged Shang Lu disappeared in an instant.

It was like there was an invisible big mouth that swallowed them in an instant.

Everyone was shocked by this scene, but no one noticed that on the back of Shang Lu’s hand, a spiral pattern was rapidly fading and disappearing.

No one noticed that behind Shang Lu, a female ghost in a red wedding dress was protecting Shang Lu tightly with the red scarf on her head.

“how is this possible?”

“Where is our demon? Where did he go?”

“What did this kid do?!”

Several thieves who had sacrificed their soul flags were terrified and hurriedly chanted spells and waved flags, trying to get in touch with the missing ghost.

Then they heard a strange whisper, which made them shudder and they quickly stopped chanting and waving the flags.

But the strange whispers in their ears continued, making them feel like their heads were about to explode.

The thieves nearby looked at them with terrified expressions, and distanced themselves from them one after another, because their heads were really cracked. Flesh and blood sprang out from the cracks, like deformed tentacles, crawling on the heads of these thieves, which was extremely weird.

“That boy is weird!”

“Quick, let the cursed cloud kill him!”

“I just don’t believe that he can make the demon disappear and swallow this curse?!”

The He thief, who had not changed his mind, no longer had the mood to torture Shang Lu and his seven companions. He immediately activated the cursed dark cloud, increased his speed, and pressed towards Shang Lu with the force of thunder.

The stone floor of the Corpse City God Temple was cracked and exploded into countless pieces of rubble due to the powerful aura released by the cursed dark clouds.

The seven people of Shanglu who were under the dark cloud of curse were instantly affected by the curse. Blood began to ooze out of the pores of their bodies, and they instantly turned into bloody people!
However, Lu Dao, Zishu Xunshou and others were being affected by the Purification Talisman. Even though they were cursed and in pain, they looked indifferent and did not ask for anything.

Facing the cursed dark clouds, the Tu Bo Seal was useless. Shang Lu wanted to use his power to resist, but he was bound by the blood shackles, his breath was blocked, and he couldn’t muster any strength.

Fortunately, he still has a trick up his sleeve.

The python swallows the elephant!

Shanglu opened his mouth and displayed the magical power he gained from eating the Basque snake meat.

“Whoosh-“

A powerful suction force came from Shanglu’s mouth.

At this moment, his mouth seemed to have turned into the legendary Guixu, capable of swallowing everything.

The cursed dark cloud that came with such force that it seemed as if it could crush the entire space was actually sucked into his mouth and swallowed in one breath.

“what?!”

“Eat…eat?”

“Can curses be eaten?”

The thieves were once again stunned.

They are more shocked today than they were in the past year.

However, seeing Shang Lu’s painful expression, they felt a little relieved.

I feel that although Shanglu is strange, he is still a human being with flesh and blood. He has swallowed the curse, but he cannot bear it and cannot survive. His flesh will soon be corroded by the curse.

Shang Lu was indeed in pain at this moment.

Because there were too many curses absorbed into the body, and these curses contained very strong resentful and evil energy.

Although he managed to suppress some of the resentful energy by relying on his internal organs, a lot of it still leaked out and wreaked havoc in his body.

If Sanniang had not intervened in time and sent a stream of Yin energy into his body to help him suppress the evil curse, he would have died suddenly as the He thieves had guessed.

Although he was not dead, he was in great pain all over his body. His skin, internal organs, tendons and bones… every part was corroded, causing Shang Lu great pain.

The statues in the Wuzang Temple radiated radiant light crazily, suppressing the corruption of the curse. The Yin-Yang Qi Bell also clanged, helping to dissipate the negative energy.

The divine power in Shanglu’s body also began to operate on its own at this moment, going straight to the five internal organs and entering into the five statues.

With the help of divine power, the power of the five elements exerted by the five internal organs increased instantly.

Even the Tu Bo Seal on the back of Shang Lu’s hand emitted wisps of divine power, which cooperated with the Five Internal Organs Temple to suppress and gather the evil spirits and curses that were wreaking havoc in his body, dragged them into the Five Internal Organs Temple, and placed them on the altar.

Shang Lu’s attention was all on suppressing the dark cloud of curse that he had swallowed into his body.

The attention of others was also focused on him.

No one noticed that some changes were taking place in the City God Temple.

Under the rotten and hardened skin of the flesh-and-blood statue enshrined in the temple, new flesh was wriggling and fresh blood was growing…

Seeing that Shang Lu was in pain but did not die suddenly as they expected, the thieves were stunned and shouted:

“The idea is prickly!”

“This kid is really weird, we must kill him to prevent him from causing trouble!”

“Kill him quickly! We can’t let him ruin our good deeds!”

If it is said that this group of thieves previously felt that killing the seven people of Shanglu would not be a problem at all, as they were suppressed by the “fame” and the “profit” of gold ingots, and bound by the shackles of the City God.

Even with a cat playing with mouse mentality.

He wanted to use evil spirits and curses to torture them, letting them die slowly in despair and pain, in order to eliminate the hatred of being hunted and killed by the witch officials in the past.

Now, they completely changed their minds and had only one thought in mind: to kill Shang Lu as soon as possible! And then kill the other six people.

Even the fact that Shanglu turned into a rampant ghost and swallowed the cursed dark cloud had already made the He thieves feel terrified.

In order to prevent any real accidents, the thieves all used their strongest means.

Some people activated the treasures in their hands, some used strange magic, and some even summoned evil spirits to haunt them…

In an instant, the City God Temple of Corpses became like a horrible apocalypse.

All the wheat thieves and all their attacks were directed at Shanglu.

“boom–“

The violent evil spirit and sorcery caused the City God Temple of Corpses to shake. Countless broken bones and rotten limbs fell to the ground, as if it would collapse at any moment.

Countless flashes of blood, violent curses, breathtaking sword auras and sword shadows, as well as an offensive composed of various terrifying poisonous creatures, swept towards Shanglu like a storm.

Tear him to pieces!
There were still thieves shouting:

“Don’t hold back! Even if you tear him to pieces, the Immortal King will be happy to accept it! Lingchi and chariot dismemberment are both first-class sacrificial methods! This kid is quite strange, you must not neglect him, and don’t underestimate him!”
