Chapter 2257 - 2216: Three Dead Spirit Puppets

Jiangh Zifang was very determined and patient; it seemed that he wouldn't give up until he found Wang Xiaoqiang. The three of them looked for him for an entire day and still didn't leave,

Wang Xiaoqiang had plenty of time to wait him out. He released Little Zhang, Zhou Jingzhe, and Du Lingfei from the Storage Ring,

The three of them were cooped up in the Storage Ring for a week. Suddenly being released was like a bird out of its cage—they felt light and free. However, they didn't waste that week in Wang Xiaoqiang's Storage Ring; instead, they spent it cultivating,

As for the experiences of that week, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't explain much. He found a relatively large inn, opened two rooms, and stayed there,

After that, he spent time with his two women and a brother in that inn, resting, cultivating, eating, drinking, and enjoying themselves, living very happily.

Jiangh Zifang, Master Lingzhi, and Elder Li searched for three days, finally losing all confidence, and then left dejectedly.

Seeing Jiangh Zifang leave with Master Lingzhi and Elder Li, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't leave immediately; he feared a trap,

Heavenly Eye focused tightly on the trio's departing backs, and sure enough, a thousand meters from the city, they paused for a moment, then turned back. As they turned back, they released their Divine Sense, sweeping towards him.

Wang Xiaoqiang thought to himself how lucky he was; if he had been a bit impatient and left the city immediately after they departed, he might have exposed himself.

The three returned to the big city but still did not find Wang Xiaoqiang. An extremely frustrated expression appeared on their faces, and then they left in a huff,

Seeing the trio leave, Wang Xiaoqiang still didn't depart immediately. Heavenly Eye watched their backs until they fully vanished before retracting his gaze,

He then took a nap in the inn. At nightfall, Wang Xiaoqiang used his Willpower to move Little Zhang, Zhou Jingzhe, and Du Lingfei into the Storage Ring, quietly left the city, and flew towards the Corpse Yin Mountain Range.

With a thought, he absorbed all the Spiritual Spring within him, his Cultivation Base momentarily becoming the First Decline of Heavenly Beings, then transformed into a Lightning Leopard. Flying at an incredible speed, he reached the Corpse Yin Mountain Range within Half a Stick of Incense's time,

Now, Wang Xiaoqiang's Cultivation Base was incomparable to before, with his First Decline of Heavenly Beings base, and his brother Little Zhang possessing the Power of Enlightenment of the Holy Path of Courage; hence, he no longer feared the Corpse Yin Mountain Range,

This time, unlike his past cautious approach, he directly chose a larger valley, then released Little Zhang, Zhou Jingzhe, and Du Lingfei to capture Ghost Souls for cultivation,

Meanwhile, he opened his Heavenly Eye to search for Dead Spirits. The number of Dead Spirits was significantly fewer than Ghost Souls and extremely difficult to find, but with his Heavenly Eye, it was relatively easier. Soon he discovered a Dead Spirit and flew directly towards it,

The Dead Spirit, seeing someone pursuing it, turned to look back, and was highly surprised to see a cultivator at the First Decline of Heavenly Beings,

Because a cultivator of the First Decline of Heavenly Beings facing it would only result in death, only those with cultivation reaching the Fifth Decline of Heavenly Beings had the strength to counter it or even potentially destroy it.

Under its surprise, Wang Xiaoqiang had already released the Holy Path of Courage. Once the 'Courage' symbol appeared, a human figure floated out from it, taking the form of Sacred Confucian,

With one hand holding a Magic Wand and the other holding a Scripture that opened without being flipped, Sacred Confucian, gazing at the Scripture, began chanting; as the sound of chanting arose, the Dead Spirit held its head and covered its ears, yet couldn't block that pervasive chanting sound…

Ultimately, it showed a look of remorse, then fell to its knees with a thud, bowing deeply towards Wang Xiaoqiang, uttering a voice of repentance, then breaking into cries of regret, like a sinner confessing,

Ultimately, it became Wang Xiaoqiang's Puppet.

Wang Xiaoqiang retracted the 'Courage' symbol, then opened his Heavenly Eye to seek a second target; not long after, he discovered a pair of Dead Spirits,

Enlightening such powerful Yin Objects as Dead Spirits was not easy. Without enough Power of Enlightenment from the Holy Path of Courage, it would be impossible to enlighten two Dead Spirits completely. Failure wouldn't just mean a wasted effort but also present danger as Dead Spirits still posed a life threat to Wang Xiaoqiang,

To be cautious, he called Little Zhang over to join him in rushing towards the two Dead Spirits,

The two Dead Spirits, seeing humans charging towards them, let out fierce screeches and lunged directly at the two of them,

Seeing this, Little Zhang immediately put the dagger in his mouth, casting the Soul Shock Spell. Under Little Zhang's Soul Shock Spell, the two Dead Spirits were momentarily stunned, and Wang Xiaoqiang seized the opportunity to release the Holy Path of Courage; the Sacred Confucian emerged, began chanting, and the Power of Enlightenment unfolded. Instantly, the two Dead Spirits held their heads, covered their ears, their expressions began to show remorse, and they uttered strange sounds of confession…

This situation persisted for quite a while, but neither Dead Spirit knelt, clearly both were struggling desperately against the Power of Enlightenment, which was not quickly taking effect on them—its power was beginning to disconnect…

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang felt a bit anxious; if he couldn't ultimately enlighten the two Dead Spirits, turning them into his Puppets, they would break loose from that Power of Enlightenment and retaliate, putting his brother and himself in a dangerous situation.

Seeing the situation, he was forced to frantically drive Spiritual Power to sustain the Holy Path of Courage. However, the 'Courage' symbol didn't respond to his Spiritual Power,

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang was momentarily stunned, realizing he'd forgotten in his haste that the Holy Path of Courage was a spell technique of enlightenment, unrelated to the size of Spiritual Power. He immediately dismissed his fear, increasing his courage,

With the birth of courage in his heart, the 'Courage' symbol grew, Golden Light scattered from it onto Sacred Confucian, who, bathed in the Golden Light, became more sacred, wielding the Magic Wand more powerfully, and the chanting grew louder and faster…

Majestic and grand, it seemed omnipresent.

The Power of Enlightenment, empowered by the strength of the Holy Path of Courage, became unstoppable, and under its overwhelming force, the two Dead Spirits finally couldn't resist, thudding to their knees before Wang Xiaoqiang, bowing deeply, their eyes showing awe and admiration,

At this moment, they were completely enlightened, becoming Wang Xiaoqiang's Puppets.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand, Sacred Confucian turned into a phantom and merged into the 'Courage' symbol, which then rolled into a small bundle and burrowed into Wang Xiaoqiang's body to lie dormant.

Having done this, Wang Xiaoqiang exhaled deeply, feeling a sense of relief. Little Zhang also stopped grinding his teeth, looking at Wang Xiaoqiang with a lingering fear, also breathing a long sigh of relief, a sheen of sweat on his forehead.

"Go, capture ten Ghost Souls for me." Wang Xiaoqiang ordered the two Dead Spirit Puppets.

The two Dead Spirit Puppets immediately went to capture Ghost Souls, Wang Xiaoqiang even sent the previous Dead Spirit to capture Ghost Souls as well, watching the three Dead Spirit Puppets busy capturing Ghost Souls, Wang Xiaoqiang felt quite happy because now he possessed three Dead Spirit Puppets, significantly increasing his influence.

Busy the entire night, the three Dead Spirits captured hundreds of Ghost Souls, Wang Xiaoqiang distributed the hundreds of Ghost Souls among Little Zhang, Zhou Jingzhe, and Du Lingfei,

Now, Ghost Souls weren't of much use to him. As a cultivator of the First Decline of Heavenly Beings, when consolidating Divine Sense, he needed not Ghost Souls but Divine Spirits and Divine Souls,

To quickly level up, he must kill, killing those of the Spirit Realm of Heavenly Beings and Heavenly Soul Realm cultivation levels, then practicing transformation on their Divine Spirits and Divine Souls to consolidate Divine Sense.
