Chapter 1481: Chapter 1480: Shrine

"Tu Yumen!"

Heize Seimei suddenly looked towards Tu Yumen beside him and gave the latter a signal with his eyes, "Go, it’s time to use that thing."

"That thing?"

Tu Yumen’s pupils suddenly contracted, and an incredulous expression appeared on his face. That thing was something they brought as a precaution, and now it had to be used?

Without questioning Heize Seimei’s intentions, Tu Yumen waved at the priests and shrine maidens behind him, and they retreated. Soon, these priests and shrine maidens came forward carrying something, covered tight with a red cloth, looking very sacred.

Heize Seimei directly lifted the red cloth, revealing a green-finished shrine underneath. A tremendously cold and strong wave emanated from the shrine!

With the appearance of the red shrine, the Great Yin-Yang Masters who were previously engaging Hong Ye in a continuous battle also retreated, abandoning their attack.

"Hmm?"

Seeing those Great Yin-Yang Masters retreat, a look of surprise appeared on Hong Ye’s face. However, when her gaze landed on the green shrine, her expression changed drastically, with a look of horror in her eyes. She clearly recognized this item!

Unexpectedly, Heize Seimei even brought this thing!

"Hong Ye, you should know very well what this is,"

Heize Seimei spoke with a sinister tone, "I originally didn’t plan to use this, but since you remain obstinate, I have no choice but to use this Green-faced shrine to punish you!"

After saying this, he suddenly started the drive spell, activating the shrine in front of him. Suddenly, a sky-covering black mist erupted from the shrine, accompanied by an earth-shaking howl. An enormous shadow appeared within the mist—a ghost god entity crawled out from within!

The entity was indeed the true form of the Green-faced Demon!

"How is it possible, that’s the true form of the Green-faced Demon? Isn’t it said that the true form of the ghost god cannot leave the shrine?"

Wugong Qian Dai was so shocked that she couldn’t close her mouth. She had never seen the true body of a ghost god in her life, and now she saw two all at once.

Ghost gods can only exert their full strength within the shrine’s range, their true bodies require the Yin-Yang technique of great Yin-Yang Masters to wield power. This is a consensus among everyone in Yingzhou: if the ghost god’s true body leaves the shrine, its power will weaken accordingly, becoming smaller and weaker the further it is.

"That green shrine should be a powerful sacred object from Izumo Shrine. This item can contain the ghost god’s entity, temporarily providing it with a place to lodge, allowing the Green-faced Demon to leave Izumo Shrine and exert its full power."

Said the Great Elder of the Wugong family, whose injuries had just barely healed. Witnessing the true form of the Green-faced Demon, even he couldn’t help but show a great tremor in his eyes, his expression turning grave.

Just when one wave subsides, another rises.

"Big sister Hong Ye, can she hold on?"

Wugong Qian Dai’s beautiful eyes were filled with worry. Given Hong Ye’s current state, almost exhausted, could she withstand the true form of the Green-faced Demon’s assault?

"I’m afraid not."

Wugong Chi Dai shook his head, he could see that Hong Ye was sustaining with her life, but even so, it was merely a struggle, defeat was only a matter of time, with no hope of turning the tide.

Perhaps it was destiny trying to end the Wugong Family.

"Lord Green-faced God, the next part is up to you."

Heize Seimei slightly bowed to the Green-faced Demon entity, expressing a respectful demeanor.

"Don’t worry, I came specially this time for the Eight-chi Kongo Jade,"

The Green-faced Demon exhaled black mist, its copper bell-like eyes fixed on Hong Ye, shining with a cold light, then it sneered playfully, "A mere shrine maiden, even if she has the Bone Woman’s power, how much can she exert?"

"That traitor Hong Ye, once I get the Eight-chi Kongo Jade and the Bone Woman’s strength, I’ll make her life worse than death!"

Tu Yumen stared at Hong Ye maliciously, with greedy eyes roaming over her exquisite figure. He had long coveted Hong Ye, just never had the chance. Once the Green-faced God acted, Hong Ye would surely be defeated, and by then, wouldn’t she be at his mercy?

Boom!

Without further ado, the Green-faced Demon moved fiercely, surging black mist as it suddenly opened its mouth, spewing a vast black beam towards Hong Ye!

Hong Ye bit her lip, intending to continue using the Bone Woman’s power to fend off the attack. However, the next moment, she unexpectedly spat out a mouthful of blood, her body could no longer hold on, and she collapsed to her knees, coughing violently. Simultaneously, the Bone Woman’s true form in mid-air sighed and then transformed back into a cluster of Mori White Flames, returning into Hong Ye’s body, vanishing.

Without Hong Ye as the host, regardless of the Bone Woman’s strength, it had nowhere to go.

Seeing the Bone Woman disappear and Hong Ye fall, an expression of wild joy appeared on the Green-faced Demon’s true form, seemingly not needing much effort to capture Hong Ye. Extracting the Bone Woman’s power and taking the Eight-chi Kongo Jade from her would be nothing more than an easy task!

At the same time, numerous black tendrils extended from the Green-faced Demon’s body, densely packed like black pythons, sweeping towards Hong Ye!

Seeing this, a bitter smile appeared on Hong Ye’s pretty face. She had done her best, and now she really had no options.

At this moment, her nerves relaxed, her body weakened, and she fell backward. However, just as her body was about to hit the ground, a warm hand like jade supported her back, holding her up!

An extremely pure True Qi passed through that hand into her body, warm and revitalizing her almost drained body with strength.

She opened her eyes, seeing Ling Chen’s young and familiar face reflecting in her sight.

"Master?"

Hong Ye was startled, hadn’t Ling Chen been preparing something? Had he finished now?

Just as she struggled to stand, a sharp pain like needles pricked her entire body, nearly making her faint instantly.

"Rest well, don’t move."

Ling Chen’s calm voice echoed in her ear, "You’ve done enough, now leave the rest to me."

"Trust me."

Hearing these words, Hong Ye’s heart completely calmed, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. Now even if she wanted to move, she couldn’t. Everything that followed was entrusted to the man before her...
