Chapter 24: The Ghost King in Su Shan

  There is still one more chapter after ten minutes. The next chapter will be at 10 o'clock...

  In this world, Liu Yi saw such a trend and made a great vow to the vast ocean of primordial energy. He wanted to occupy this position and achieve this merit.

  "This thought, even someone as close to me as Murong Yu wouldn't dare say it. So I just smiled and said: 'This is the natural evolution of the Yin Yang Ten Extremes Formation, I just gave it a little push, in fact, I didn't have any effect on it!'"

  This is what Liu Yi experimented with after witnessing the power of the Yin-Yang Ten Extremes Array reversing yin and yang last time. He mobilized the power of the Yin-Yang Ten Extremes Array, using the mountain god's divine position in the talisman to mobilize all the earth's spiritual energy, which was transformed and generated through evolution.

  After Liu Yi's deliberation for a period of time, he thoroughly understood the principle of the Yinyang Ten Absolute Formation disk and could even improve it.

  Let this formation and the spiritual pool in the spiritual realm merge completely, covering and extending outwards. Although the power of the formation has become smaller, the coverage area is much larger!

  "After all, it's because this divine position of mine isn't complete!" Liu Yi thought to himself, if not for that, he wouldn't have needed to rely on this so-called Yin Yang Ten Extremes Formation.

  Just then, Mu Yao suddenly let out a startled cry: "There's a bug! There's a bug!"

  "Are there bugs?"

  Liu Yi's heart skipped a beat as he looked towards where Mu Yao had cried out in surprise. It was at the paddy field over there.

  The spiritual realm originally couldn't cover this place, but at this moment the spiritual realm covers the entire Fenglai Mountain, and even the surrounding areas are included. As a place as important as the rice fields, it is naturally also included.

  Liu Yi listened and Ling Xiao's treasure mirror reflected the past. Suddenly, he saw a huge black shadow, at least as big as a train head.

  Before Liu Yi could see clearly, the thing had already been startled. It spread its thin insect-like wings and leaped into the dark depths, disappearing without a trace.

  "It's indeed a bug, and it's so big!" Liu Yi was shocked. He hurried to the place where the bug had just fallen and saw that there seemed to be an extremely small black shadow, almost invisible to the naked eye, drilling into the rice field.

  "Damn it, what was that huge bug just now?" Liu Yi sneered: "I'm afraid it's going to ruin this rice field again!"

  Thinking of it, the rice fields have already grown ears, although they are not yet mature. But seeing them heavy and full-grained, one can tell that the yield will be extremely high! No wonder so many people can't wait to get their hands on them.

  Two days later, villagers from the village prayed in the temple of the local deity. They said that signs of pestilence had been found in the fields.

  Within a day or two, many people came to pray and talked about the pestilence. Many experienced old farmers have already seen the signs.

  These two days, Liu Yi also didn't idle around, day and night sending people to lie in wait in the fields. But again, there was no sign of that insect.

  But Liu Yi had already figured it out. What was this bug's origin! It turned out to be a locust ghost.

  Nor does it know who invited it, and yet it lays eggs in its own rice field, bringing disaster to the land.

  Liu Yi didn't need to think much. His own enemies were just a few. After all, who would frame him? The most likely one was the City God.

  In my heart, I secretly said to myself that I have an unresolvable grudge with that city guard. It's already a life-and-death relationship. I've also set up a trap to deal with him, and there's nothing more to say about it.

  It's actually this locust demon monster. It must be a plague spirit that ran out of the depths of Su Mountain.

  Liu Yi had long been thinking of sending troops to Su Shan, expanding his territory. He even took down the ghost domain of Gan Chi's Ghost King. Now it seems that this small Feng Lai Mountain has stood firm and should also take a step forward in expansion.

  Although it's not the right time yet, I can still make some preparations. Thinking of this, he called Shentu Ji over and asked: "Shentu, you're most familiar with the interior of Su Shan. Do you know if there are any other powerful forces within Su Shan besides the Ghost King of Gan Chi?"

  Shen Tu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I've heard that in the Su Shan mountains, there are seven or eight ghost kings and demon kings who command their own domains, each with an aura that doesn't lose out to Gan Chi's ghost king."

  Liu Yi nodded, he had also heard of these. However, the Su Mountain was vast and had many borders, Fenglai Mountain, and even the entire Huiling County faced a single Gan Chi Ghost King.

  "Now that we've eliminated the Ghost King of Gan Chi and taken over his domain, this news can't be kept under wraps." Liu Yi said, "Back then, so many ghost soldiers escaped, the news will eventually spread. What I'm afraid of is that other ghosts will hear the news and won't be able to resist taking action!"

  "My lord, what I'm worried about isn't those individual ghost kings." Shentu Qi hesitated before continuing: "These ghostly demon kings may be stronger than the Gan Chi Ghost King, but their strength is still limited. What I fear is the legendary... Qiongqiu..."

  "What's wrong?" Liu Yi asked.

  "Although I didn't venture deep into the mountains, I've heard that among the many strong yao kings in these mountains, this one is the most powerful. It's said that even the Ghost King of Gan Chi and other ghost kings and yao kings have to rely on this yao king's favor. Those epidemic ghosts and evil spirits are almost all from this yao king's faction."

  Shen Tuqi felt a little worried, this time discovering the disappearance of the locust demon, but it made Shen Tuqi think of the legendary powerful demon.

  This is one of the Four Evils in ancient mythological legends. There are also myths that this Taotie is not a monster, but an ancient clan, with various sayings. However, no matter which version, it is a synonym for terror and ferocity.

  Even Liu Yi heard it and changed his color: "This Su Mountain is only three or four hundred miles in circumference, and there are many such mountains and rivers in the world. How can it be related to such a fierce creature?"

  "My lord doesn't know, but it's said that the Sushan Mountains stretch far and deep, and further southwest, there are even more towering mountains, where truly no one has ever entered. It's rumored to be the dwelling place of evil spirits, extremely perilous. But as for what it's really like, I'm afraid most of the ghosts in the Sushan Mountains aren't clear about it either. Perhaps only those ghost kings and demon kings would be able to say clearly."

  Liu Yi heard this and let out a slight sigh of relief. He said, "It's good that the rumors are just that - rumors. In any case, let's forget about it for now. The situation is different now, these crops are almost ripe, everything will have to wait until I've ascended!"

  "Yes!" Shentu Qi's face lit up with joy.

  It's imaginable that the yield of thousands of kilograms per mu will truly be realized. This will bring huge benefits to Liu Yi and them.

  As for how much benefit there is, it's still unknown now, but when the time comes, Liu Yi will at least be on par with that Ling City Garrison, right!

  "We may not have the energy to deal with things in Su Shan for the time being," Liu Yi said, "but we still need to send out a fine ghost soldier to investigate the situation around us and recruit more ghost soldiers!"
