Chapter 424: Chapter 421: Five-Colored Divine Light, Eighteen Mud Plows

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!...

On the thousands of miles long East Sea coastline, five brilliant arcs of black, blue, red, yellow, and white soared from north to south across the sky.

The howling wind in the high altitudes didn’t hinder their conversation at all.

"Junior Brother Song, your timing couldn’t be better!"

"Having Junior Brother Song join our joint operation to exterminate the ’Demon Master Dao’ is just perfect.

Our Taoist Inheritance Artifact, the ’Fengdu Iron Enclosure,’ when combined as one, is powerful enough to sweep across the entire Yellow Seal Realm, surely allowing us to take the largest piece of the cake among the dozen or so powers!"

"..."

Facing the suddenly emerged "Song Bingyi," the other four heads of the Five Organs Temple were all very eager in their attitudes.

Even though the "Kidney Temple" had long since been destroyed along with Penglai Immortal Mountain, these four comrades had no intention of looking down on "Song Bingyi."

In this realm, a Yellow Seal Mage with power flowing through himself and a lifespan akin to that of a dynasty was a top-ranking figure everywhere.

As long as that one artifact, which recorded all the Daoist Skill and knowledge comprehension of their sect, was not lost,

for a Yellow Seal Mage, rebuilding a branch was at most a matter of a few decades.

Moreover, the "Abyssal Ghost King Banner" he brought had broken the previously incomplete state.

It significantly increased the might of the ’Fengdu Iron Enclosure,’ also boosting the confidence of the various Magicians of the Five Organs Temple.

Aside from the powerful Netherworld Square, they now dared to claim they were second to none.

"The ’Demon Master Dao’ has become so rampant that they even dare to declare war on our entire Ghost Path; now is the time for us to join forces and exterminate this menace.

I, of course, shall step forward to give my humble contribution to the Five Organs Temple."

Wang Yuan nodded at them with a smile.

Completely obedient, he didn’t covet any benefits or spoils of war—an amiable demeanor.

This also matched the persona this disguise was created with.

In the "Small Book of Life and Death," there are two identities associated with the Five Organs Temple: one is "Register Holder Bing—Lu Renjia," who had "died in battle" on Penglai Immortal Mountain,

and the other is Song Bingyi, who had only met the No-Life Dao’s Three Yang Sect demons during the "Yunhe Bridge Falling Dragon" incident early in February.

But after that "fry evil in Yunjing City," the core of the Three Yang Sect had been scattered by the storm, and now he was merely a nightmare that terrified Su Guyun alone.

In the eyes of the other members of the Five Organs Temple, he was "still" that uninvolved, lone-wolf figure on the sidelines.

As for Wang Yuan, this was also the first time he had laid eyes on the several heads of the Five Organs Temple whom he had only read about in reports, and he couldn’t help but scrutinize them:

Qiu Yanzhou, the controller of the "Heart Temple," who possessed the "Burning Ghost King Banner," had hair as red as fire, yet his face was as expressionless as stubborn rock;

Ye Hanmei from the "Liver Temple," who held the "Wood Charm Ghost King Banner," wore a black veil over her face, but her figure was curvaceous, and she was dressed revealingly;

Li Xiaotian of the "Lung Temple," holder of the "White Tiger Ghost King Banner," had hair sharp as needles and completely white pupils;

Fu Chensha, the one in charge of the "Spleen Temple," holding the "Stone-Carrying Ghost King Banner," was the tallest among them, with sallow skin as if he had just been dug out of a grave, always exuding an earthy stench.

Among them, Qiu Yanzhou of the "Heart Temple" and Ye Hanmei of the "Liver Temple" were both Yellow Seal Mages.

The former was at the Earth Essence Realm and acted as the apparent leader, the Sect Master Marshal, when moving together, while the latter was at the Dharma Body Realm.

The other two, Li Xiaotian and Fu Chensha, along with the actual head of the "Kidney Temple," Xiao Shuiyuan, were all at the Red Seal Yin God Realm.

All four combined couldn’t beat Wang Yuan alone.

But what was more surprising was

that during the Flat Peach Banquet on the third day of March, although they were scattered across various sites of the Peach God Tao, without exception, they had all consumed the "Deceit Peach" sent by Old Master Wang.

Now each of them had a "Heart-Eating Worm" playing the role of a strict Teacher inside them, teaching them to be good all the time.

In addition to their common foe, their newfound zeal for slaying demons and upholding justice was a fervor they couldn’t fully express to others.

Ye Hanmei, who flew by Wang Yuan’s side, took the initiative to explain the intricacies of the situation to this Junior Brother who had joined them halfway:

"Junior Brother Song, in addition to being the obstructionists to our Ghost Path, ’Demon Master Dao’...

we’ve also discovered that the ’Ghost Medicine’ we confiscated is not only capable of enabling those ugly freaks from ’Demon Master Dao’ to undergo a soul transformation and mutate from humans to demons.

It is also immensely useful for our Ghost Path cultivation.

It can enable the ’Five Ghosts Child’ nurtured within our five viscera to grow rapidly, making our Taoist Ability advance by leaps and bounds."

"Although... because of that incident, it’s impossible for us to continue such vile acts,

as long as we get enough ’Yin God Shrines,’ we can distribute them amongst the bold and daring wandering ghosts.

Convinced that it’s a stroke of luck to grow stronger with each kill under the influence of ’Ghost Medicine,’ they will certainly indulge in the delusion.

Once they have gathered enough, we will emerge to eliminate evil and uphold the Tao, reaping everything in the process!

Not only will we reap benefits, but we’ll also reduce our own debts in the process, and even if we should not commit sins, this approach should generally be harmless.

I’m not neglecting you, so after it’s done, you’ll get a 20% share."

Like a rose in full bloom, Ye Hanmei whispered in Wang Yuan’s ear, and she even gave him a seductive wink.

Clearly implying that if Junior Brother Song was "understanding," there was room for negotiation on his share.

"Senior Sister, rest assured, eliminating demons and protecting the Tao is my creed; I’ve never cared for such petty benefits.

You’re free to distribute as you see fit"

Wang Yuan sincerely... spouted lofty words.

This truth instantly caused the leading Qiu Yanzhou and Ye Hanmei to relax slightly.

They truly felt that this Junior Brother was generous and a really decent person.

Unfortunately,

they, who were still contemplating how to split the spoils, were unaware that Old Master Wang had already prepared to issue them their respective "Notice of Employment" after the affair.

Emperor Mu, who inherited the Dharma Veins of the "Five Organs Temple", has now gloriously begun his penitential career of servitude within the "Jade Mansion Thunder Pivot".

The buzzing lathes and looms are still short of people to "serve" them.

This family just needs to be complete and in order.

Of course, that will have to be after the action of exterminating the "Demon Master Dao" is concluded. "Junior Brother Song" will definitely show them his magnanimity.

At this moment, the group had already flown above a city.

They saw Qiu Yanzhou, who was leading the way, taking out a map to glance at it, then shouted to everyone:

"This is a major stronghold of the ’Demon Master Dao’ according to the intelligence from ’Netherworld Square’, with a Mage stationed inside. Everyone, give it your all and fight quickly!"

As he spoke, he took the lead and unfurled the "Burning Ghost King Flag" in his hand, followed by black, green, yellow, and white Divine Lights surging into the sky.

"Not good, it’s an enemy attack!"

Clang, clang, clang...

The alarm bell rang out, during the chaos on the ground due to the sudden surprise.

Above their heads, the chilling sound of five curse spells suddenly resonated through the heavens:

"Emperor Beidu of the North, command over ghosts and deities. With tens of thousands in his retinue, eight generals with spirit communication. With the speed of all gods, Ghost Capturing Cloud Rush. Collecting life and death, summoning vengeful souls.

Hasten to obey the talisman’s commands, attach and identify by name. By the imperial decree of the North Pole, separate the forms of humans and ghosts. Quickly, as the decree commands!"

A roar—!

With an angry howl.

Within the brilliant five-colored Divine Light, a colossal Ghost King resembling a mountain with five faces and eighteen arms, its skin as dark as iron, slowly revealed its upper body.

It was the combination of the "Fengdu Iron Enclosure" five flags—the Eighteen Mud Plows Ghost King!

"Mud Plow" is a Sanskrit term, also known as the "Eighteen Hells Ghost King".

The next moment.

Eighteen massive arms, like mountain ridges, carrying the howling wind of yin energy, thundered down upon the stronghold of "Demon Master Dao" like a torrential downpour.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...

Fortresses, city walls, arrays, talismans, crossbow bolts... everything turned to dust beneath the iron fist.

A bright Dharma Light just started to rise below, only to be likewise smashed into fragments by a punch.

At the same time.

A specialized commando team, comprised of Yellow Seal Level combatants drawn from a dozen Ghost Dao sects,

Had on this very night launched lightning-fast raids along the East Sea coastline, attacking one Demon Master Dao stronghold after another.

Under the instigation of a certain plotter, they gathered superior forces and within a single night turned the inevitably unprepared "Demon Master Dao" deviants into a river of blood.

Even in their dying moments, they remained clueless as to why they had brought about such disaster upon themselves.

They were even more wronged than Dou E herself.

The hidden mastermind within the "Five Organs Temple" contingent was only too happy to reap massive profits, gaining a share of "Yin Morality" for every Demon Mage slaughtered by these Ghost Daoists.

Ever since using up the "King Jialouluo" capable of contending with the "Green Seal" in Yunjing City, Wang Yuan had become increasingly cautious.

Even though his three avatars had stepped into the "Earth Essence" realm and were already invincible amongst their peers, and even the ordinary "Divine Transformation" realm could not hold him,

He felt no sense of arrogance whatsoever.

Because the favor of the "Heavenly Dao" far surpassed that of the "Ghost Medicine", allowing Wang Yuan and his subordinates, the Yin Officials, to maintain a clearer state of mind.

He was not as maniacally obsessed as those Ghost Dao sects.

In his eyes lay not just interests but a multitude of heavy doubts and suspicions lurking behind them.

What changes occurred throughout the several hundred years that the "Demon Master Dao" secluded themselves on the four Moluo islands overseas?

Among the group of Magicians who transformed themselves into demons, how many had fallen and mutated?

Were they still the simple heterodox practitioners of the Cultivation World’s perception, never having aligned themselves with any particular "Heavenly Official"?

What urgent matter drove them to disregard their "Debts" amidst the turmoil and collect "Ghost Medicine" through the "Yin God Shrine" on a large scale?

The real identity of the "Underground Master", the level he has reached, and his connection with the Demon Master Dao...

The calamity above his head wasn’t heavy, but without clarity on these issues, he remained uneasy.

Using the "Tongue Blossoms Aspect", he decided to stoke the flames everywhere with the move "Taoist Fellow, please halt."

Summoning various Taoist Fellows to gather chestnuts from the fire for him.

After all, my "Taoist Fellows" are everywhere under the heavens.

Let them kill!

Even though he was somewhat concerned that in this world where "knowledge" was gradually becoming activated,

This phrase that had tricked so many people might one day suddenly turn into an unsolvable "Weirdness", he couldn’t afford to care about that for the time being.

The coalition of a dozen Ghost Taoist sects had resolved to ensure those arrogant and presumptuous Demon Mages would die utterly bewildered!

Under the same night sky.

On "Chikushido Island" in the southwest corner of the four Moluo islands off the East Sea, the one closest to "Red County Shenzhou".

Within a profound cave.

Desperate, gasping breaths rose and fell in succession.

One after another, the silhouettes lying on the stone beds suddenly sat up with a start.

"What’s happened? Why have my ’Insect-Attached Men’ died again?"
