Chapter 76 Salvation and Merit
"Wooden stake formation, activate!"
Su Ming formed a hand seal, and huge wooden stakes emerged from the ground.
Boom~~
Countless wooden stakes emerged from the ground, surrounding Shidong Village.
"The Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation!"
With a wave of his hand, Su Ming caused countless wooden stakes to move, connecting together to form a massive Five Elements and Eight Trigrams formation that completely sealed off Shidong Village.
"Roar~~ Who is it?"
"Who is it again?"
Roars of anger echoed through the village.
A strange figure roared to the sky, only to have a wooden stake fall from the heavens, carrying the power of lightning, piercing through its mouth and embedding itself in the ground.
It turned into dust in an instant.
Why am I always the one who's hurt?
Boom, boom!
Thunder rumbled and lightning bolts struck one after another.
In an instant, the entire Stone Cave Village was illuminated, revealing countless eerie sights.
These strange creatures were struck by lightning one after another, eventually turning into ashes.
"what..."
Screams and wails filled the air, echoing for miles around.
Countless black wisps of smoke rose from the village, and ghostly figures appeared everywhere. They tried to escape but were locked in by the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation, and could only grit their teeth and resist the terrifying thunder from the sky.
The lightning overhead was terrifying, and the overwhelming power of the heavens was unstoppable.
A barrage of lightning bolts rained down, causing the entire village to tremble.
bang bang bang~~~
One after another, eerie shadows exploded.
Lightning flashed, like a thunderbolt striking down.
The thunder, carrying a destructive force, was like the wrath of the heavens, causing the small village to tremble violently.
The thunder roared repeatedly, its powerful sound leaving Qin Feng and the others dumbfounded.
"Oh my God!"
"Is this the wrath of the heavens?"
The group retreated in horror, quickly leaving the village area.
The lightning bolts were terrifying, striking down one after another, shattering the black mist and crushing countless eerie shadows in the darkness.
"what--"
They saw eerie shadows wailing mournfully within the black mist, turning to ashes in the thunder.
"Sigh~~"
"too horrible!"
Qin Feng was horrified and stared blankly at the scene before him.
He didn't understand what was going on, why lightning suddenly struck down and killed those strange creatures.
Could it be that it has angered both heaven and man, and that the heavens are not happy about it?
"Captain, the scene before us is likely the work of a senior expert we don't know about."
"Yes, the entire village is surrounded by these wooden stakes."
One of the team members said with a solemn expression.
"Gao Xiaofeng is right."
A female team member beside him held a peach wood sword in her hand, her expression extremely solemn.
She said, "I have a feeling that these wooden stakes and the lightning are the work of a master."
Qin Feng's expression was serious, his gaze fixed intently on the rolling thunderclouds above the small village.
A dense barrage of lightning bolts relentlessly struck down.
Boom, boom~~
Thunder roared and lightning flashed!
The eerie shadow in the black mist screamed shrilly, but could not withstand the bombardment of the thunder.
In just a moment, a large area of the black fog in Shidong Village was cleared away.
Behind the village, plumes of black mist continued to emerge, and terrifying monsters were desperately resisting the lightning.
Thunderclap!
Another thick bolt of lightning struck down, shattering a large plume of black mist behind them.
"Ow!"
A terrifying, grotesque creature emerged from the black mist.
It was eight meters tall, had six arms, and its entire body was shrouded in thick black mist as it swung and struck at the descending lightning.
"It's a six-armed monster, a powerful S-class creature."
Qin Feng and the others' expressions changed drastically.
Before they could react, lightning gathered in the sky, and dozens of bolts of lightning struck down at once.
Boom~~
When lightning struck, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
The enormous, six-armed monster's body was shattered by the lightning, hissing and emitting black smoke, its entire body in ruins.
It suffered a severe blow with a single strike.
"Damn humans—" the six-armed monster screamed in agony and turned to run away.
It ran towards the stone cave behind Shidong Village.
In the air, Su Ming, who was wielding thunder, sneered and raised his hand, sending the Hundred Ghost Banner flying into his hand.
With a gentle toss, the Hundred Ghosts Banner swiftly landed on the head of the six-armed monster.
Buzz~!
A wisp of black energy descended, instantly imprisoning the six-armed demon.
Immediately afterwards, a beautiful figure flew out from within the Hundred Ghosts Banner. The female ghost Xiao Li rushed out, her hands transforming into sharp claws that tore apart the six-armed demon.
"No, no—" the six-armed demon struggled in terror.
It tried to break free of its restraints, but was firmly bound by the Hundred Demon Banner. Then, the black mist transformed into iron chains that wrapped around its body and dragged it little by little into the Hundred Demon Banner.
"receive!"
Su Ming formed a hand seal, and the Hundred Ghost Banner suddenly released a powerful suction force.
They saw countless eerie shadows being drawn towards them from the surrounding black mist.
"Ah..." The six-armed demon wailed and disappeared into the Hundred Ghost Banner.
One by one, the other eerie figures were sucked into it, and the terrifying scene terrified these strange creatures.
They never imagined that such a thing could restrain their strangeness.
In the blink of an eye, all the strange creatures that had been lurking in Stone Cave Village, except for those that were blasted to dust by the heavenly lightning, were collected into the Hundred Ghost Banner.
The Hundred Demon Banner shook violently, and countless human faces appeared on it, opening their mouths and emitting terrifying howls.
It was like the wailing of ten thousand ghosts, sending chills down your spine.
"Let's go down and find out what's going on."
Su Ming waved and flew towards the stone cave behind Stone Cave Village.
He could clearly sense that the number eighteen he was looking for was inside, and not only number eighteen, but also number eight and number nine.
Before the cave, plumes of black gas billowed out.
However, this black energy was shattered and dissipated when it encountered lightning.
Zzz, zzz!
Surrounded by dense lightning bolts, Su Ming stepped into the cave.
Wherever it went, the black fog dissipated.
"Uuuuuu——"
Wailing cries echoed from inside the cave.
A sound like ghosts wailing and gods howling came from here, and ordinary people who came here immediately died on the spot due to a collapse of consciousness.
But Su Ming remained unmoved, his body crackling with lightning as he walked step by step into the depths of the cave.
Ta-da!
The faint sound of taut chains could be heard coming from deep within the cave.
It looked like something was struggling.
He passed through the thick black fog and arrived at the deepest part of the cave.
He saw a horrifying scene.
The place was filled with all sorts of corpses, hanging on the cave walls.
Without even looking, you can tell that these corpses are villagers from Shidong Village, and some were brought here by some strange force.
Without exception, they all died.
Su Ming scanned the corpses expressionlessly and spotted a familiar figure.
"Number 18!"
He narrowed his eyes and saw the body of number eighteen.
He was lying on a stone platform.
Not only number eighteen, but also number eight, number nine technicians, and the bodies of other women, were all lying on that stone platform.
This is an altar; they are long dead.
But the soul has not disappeared.
"Brother, please save us!"
As soon as Su Ming entered, he immediately startled the countless souls inside.
These dead souls, under eerie control and corrupted, become bizarre creatures.
"Fine, considering our brief affair, I will perform a ritual to help you pass on to the afterlife."
Su Ming sighed as he looked at the familiar figures floating above the altar.
He formed hand seals and began to cast a spell to deliver these lost souls from suffering.
"The Savior of Suffering, the Heavenly Venerable, pervades the ten directions, and constantly uses his divine power to save all sentient beings from their delusions. Sentient beings are unaware of this, like blind people seeing the sun and moon."
“I am originally the Great Void, rising from the boundless expanse. Auspicious clouds open the gate of life, and auspicious smoke fills the gate of death. I first emanate the Primordial Origin, to govern the auspicious and responsive mechanisms, to save all sins, and to deliver all from calamities.”
Su Ming condensed a Taoist seal and recited the Supreme Mysterious Treasure Salvation Sutra.
His magical power surged, and his body shone brightly for a moment.
A ray of light appeared, illuminating the souls of the dead in all directions.
The cave was filled with light and the sounds of Taoist chants, which drew countless souls to float in mid-air.
Wisps of black mist emanated from their bodies, gradually clearing their minds, and their souls became cleaner.
"Thank you for your mercy, Celestial Master!"
"Thank you for your mercy, Celestial Master!"
In an instant, the awakened souls knelt down and worshipped Su Ming repeatedly.
They realized that the person before them was a Taoist master.
"Thank you, Celestial Master, for your mercy!"
Countless souls knelt in worship, and the corpse gradually turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
Their souls, amidst wisps of white light, flew into the azure sky and vanished before our eyes.
This is going to be reborn.
Among them, technicians No. 18, No. 9, and No. 8, who knew Su Ming, respectfully kowtowed and thanked him.
They were just unconsciously calling for help, but they never expected that they would actually summon Su Ming, the handsome young man who had called them before.
Now that I look at him, I realize he was actually a Taoist master.
As for how to find out, it is obvious that one will naturally understand after being liberated.
buzz-
As the white light passed, countless souls were released from their suffering.
The entire cave was immediately emptied and became completely clean.
As the last person, number eighteen, was being prayed for, she knelt down before leaving.
"Master, if there is an afterlife, I will repay you by being your ox or horse."
Number 18 kowtowed repeatedly, and then his body was lifted up by a white light and disappeared.
"Brother Celestial Master, I will repay you in my next life by being your ox or horse."
Number 8 and Number 9 bowed in unison, their bodies turning into white light as they passed away.
Su Ming slowly opened his eyes, feeling as if his spirit and energy had been elevated.
A wisp of strange gas landed on my body, golden and shimmering, as if bestowing upon me a divine blessing.
"Merit?"
Su Ming was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
One can actually gain merit by performing rituals to help the souls of the dead.
It was an unexpected bonus.
"Xiaoli, are you willing to go to the afterlife?"
He looked at Xiaoli beside him and suddenly asked a question.
Xiaoli was initially stunned as she stared at the vanished soul, but upon hearing this, she immediately snapped out of her daze.
"Young master, Xiaoli only wishes to follow you."
Xiaoli gave a polite bow and replied.
"Never mind, let's deal with the thing in front of us first."
Su Ming waved his hand and turned his gaze to a bronze coffin floating above the altar.
Ding~~!
Clang, Clang, Clang——
The bronze coffin trembled, and the iron chains binding it taut.
Pulls of black gas were seen emanating from the bronze coffin.
"Red-clad, let it see who the real zombie is."
Su Ming snorted coldly.
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a red figure flew out from the side and struck the bronze coffin hanging in the air.
