The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 1358 - Chapter 1358 Chapter 1358 Summoning Ghosts

Chapter 1358: Chapter 1358: Summoning Ghosts Chapter 1358: Chapter 1358: Summoning Ghosts To catch ghosts, one must first summon them.

Now, Huang Xiaolong had learned that in this world, the queen’s spirit was hidden extremely deeply and left not a single clue.

However, Huang Xiaolong was an expert in ghost-hunting and naturally had confidence in revealing her true form.

Without delay, Huang Xiaolong recited a “Ghost Summoning Spell.”

This spell was a simple incantation used to summon minor ghosts. But with Huang Xiaolong’s realm, even the simplest incantation could turn decay into a miracle and exert tremendous might, making all ghosts tremble!

Profound and difficult, the obscure spell sprang from Huang Xiaolong’s mouth.

Word by word, they solidified into golden substance.

The entire temple and the surrounding hundred miles were bathed in what seemed a dirge.

The air was filled with murmurous sounds, as if a demon lord was chanting.

However–

When the spell was finished, it did not summon the queen’s spirit.

Not to mention the queen’s spirit, not even a single stray ghost.

“Yoo-hoo~ Truly hidden deeply, interesting, really interesting~~” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, shaking his head in amusement.

His eyes rested on the queen in that painting. Suddenly! It seemed the queen’s lips had slightly curled upward, revealing a mocking arc.

“Hehehe, if I don’t catch you, I won’t get the key~~” Huang Xiaolong laughed too. “But rest assured, you can’t escape my ‘Five Finger Mountain.’ If you want to spar with me, I’ll indulge you~!”

Having said that, Huang Xiaolong simply walked out of the temple.

Outside, the sunlight flooded the sky, and the resplendent treasure light soared up to ninety thousand miles.

On a sunny day, not a trace of evil spirits was to be found.

Yet ironically, this seemingly glittering world was still under the control of a ghostly hand.

All the natives of this world were blissful fools, puppets, the walking dead.

Huang Xiaolong wasn’t in a hurry; he casually strolled about while contemplating how to force the queen’s spirit to appear.

“Er~~ Well, I’ve forgotten. Generally speaking, summoning ghosts at night greatly increases the chance of success~~” Huang Xiaolong smiled to himself.

So, Huang Xiaolong planned to wait until nightfall before continuing to catch ghosts.

Passing through a bustling district, Huang Xiaolong saw several Profound Immortals who had already mixed in with the local natives and found several exquisite courtyards to live in.

They laughed and talked merrily, fully confirming the prophecy depicted in the fourth mural.

Turning down a street, Huang Xiaolong saw the Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess. They were chatting and laughing innocently. To Huang Xiaolong, they looked utterly foolish.

“Hey~~! Brother-in-law!”

“Brother-in-law!”

Two great dragons scrambled toward Huang Xiaolong.

“Hey~ How are you? All good?” Huang Xiaolong teased.

“Very well!” The Ninth Princess’s face was flushed with a rosy glow, adding to her charm. “Brother-in-law, we’ve found a vacant villa, with red walls and green willows, so beautiful!”

“Yeah, brother-in-law, why not stay with us for a while?” the Third Crown Prince invited warmly.

“Ah~~~ You two are really hopeless~~” Huang Xiaolong frowned slightly. “But I guess, for the sake of my wife the Seventh Princess, I can’t just ignore you~~”

“Brother-in-law, you agree to stay?” The Ninth Princess asked, delighted.

“Don’t be silly–stay? I’m not that bored. Alright, tonight, you’ll help me with something,” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“Brother-in-law, what is it? Ever since we entered the Slaughter Cave Mansion, you’ve taken care of us and saved us from danger many times. If there’s anything you need help with, just say the word. We’ll definitely not shirk our responsibility,” the Third Crown Prince promised earnestly.

“That’s great. Tonight, you’ll join me in–catching ghosts,” Huang Xiaolong lifted an eyebrow.

“Catching ghosts?” The Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess were both stunned.

“Yes, catching ghosts,” Huang Xiaolong murmured. “Hopefully, after annihilating that queen’s specter, it will rekindle your fighting spirit, lift your gloom, and you’ll no longer willingly be aimless salted fish~~”

“This world has ghosts?” The Ninth Princess wore an incredulous expression. “This world is a pure land in the universe, where could such things exist?”

“Pure land? Hahaha~~ Alright, no more nonsense, I’ll open your eyes tonight.” Huang Xiaolong smiled mysteriously.

“Alright then, brother-in-law.” The Third Crown Prince quickly agreed.

The Ninth Princess had no objections either.

Two giant dragons brought Huang Xiaolong to the villa they had discovered.

With willows draping over the banks and pavilions crafted from white jade and gold, the villa was indeed charmingly elegant.

Huang Xiaolong wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the scenery. After resting in the villa for most of the day, it wasn’t until nightfall that he left with the Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess.

The night in this world was dreamily hazy, filled with gemstones sparkling like stars under the moonlight. But to Huang Xiaolong, it seemed more like countless pairs of devilish eyes mocking him.

The Ninth Princess carried a bamboo basket in her hands, filled with three dishes and a soup that Huang Xiaolong had asked her to prepare.

“Brother-in-law, how are you planning to catch ghosts?” The Ninth Princess asked, looking perplexed.

“Catching ghosts, well, that’s my old expertise. This time, I want to try some of the most traditional methods,” Huang Xiaolong had a plan in mind. “These traditional methods are very simple, but sometimes, the simpler the methods, the more effective they can be.”

“Oh,” the Ninth Princess nodded, seemingly understanding but then shook her head. “Brother-in-law, I don’t believe in the existence of ghosts in this world.”

“Brother-in-law, in reality, entities like ghosts are extremely low-level. In the universe, most advanced civilizations on planets are unlikely to harbor ghosts,” the Third Crown Prince earnestly added.

“Enough, I’ve got it under control,” Huang Xiaolong replied, slightly impatient.

After wandering for a good while, it finally approached midnight.

The wind howled, dust stirred, and the atmosphere finally became cryptic and spine-chilling.

“It’s about time~~” Huang Xiaolong muttered to himself.

Soon after, Huang Xiaolong found a crossroad.

He instructed the Ninth Princess to place the prepared three dishes and soup on the ground.

Then, he took out a few empty bowls and several pairs of chopsticks.

“Uncle, Auntie, listen carefully,” Huang Xiaolong said seriously. “The three dishes and a soup you prepared are the ‘dead man’s meal’ for the ghosts. Later, we’ll knock on the bowls with the chopsticks. If there are ghosts in this world, they’ll hear the knocking sound and smell the food, and they will come to eat.”

The Third Crown Prince and the Ninth Princess were just astonished.

“The spirits in this world might be cunning, but they’re essentially still specters~~ So, these old-school tricks might just work. Anyway, it’s a long night; we’ll play it slow,” Huang Xiaolong smiled, eager to try.

After a pause, he continued. “In theory, as long as we keep knocking the bowls, when the ghost comes to eat the ‘dead man’s meal,’ it won’t be able to see us. On the other hand, once we stop, we will become visible and may come under the ghost’s attack. Alright, let’s start!”

Just then, a sudden gust of wind came from across the street!

“The ghost has come before we even started knocking?” The Ninth Princess was astounded.

“It’s not a ghost; it’s celestial energy,” the Third Crown Prince quickly corrected. “It’s an Immortal from the realm of immortals.”

“Oh? Huang Xiaolong?” Sword Immortal Emperor, Purple Flame Immortal Emperor, accompanied by several Profound Immortals, flew over swiftly.

“Hehe, you’ve come too? What a coincidence, heh,” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “Well then, come over and start knocking bowls. Tonight, I’ll really open your eyes!”
