Chapter 160 Ghost Banner

Seeing the eight ghost banners, Song Wen remembered the method of refining the ‘ghost banner’ that he got from the ghost patrol in the withered blood secret realm.

The ghost banner is a magical instrument with many uses, integrating fighting, defense, and escape. It is a magical instrument that can be continuously refined and strengthened with ghost energy and spiritual objects. Some powerful cultivators even refine it as their own magic weapon.

The eight ghost banners in front of him contain a large number of ghosts and have been infected by ghost energy for a long time. They are the best materials for refining ghost banners.

Song Wen looked at the ghost generals who were still devouring ghosts in the soul refining formation, but he was a little troubled.

He couldn't think of a way to collect the ghost banners and the two ghost generals. He had not practiced ghost skills and was not proficient in the art of controlling ghosts.

Just now, he searched Li Chenggu's soul to explore the collection method and ghost control method of the soul refining formation, but the soul search failed.

Song Wen took out Li Chenggu's storage ring, probed his spiritual consciousness into it, and quickly searched it.

After a few breaths, a formation plate and a jade slip appeared in Song Wen's hand.

The formation plate was the formation plate of the soul refining formation in front of him, and the jade slip recorded the operation method of the soul refining formation.

Putting the jade slip on his forehead, Song Wen did not bother to check it carefully, and quickly scanned the contents of the jade slip to find the method of collecting it.

After half an incense stick, Song Wen put away the jade slip.

Time was tight, and Song Wen did not have time to completely refine the formation plate. He needed to leave his spiritual consciousness and spiritual power on the formation plate so that he could put away the formation.

Li Chenggu was dead, and the breath left by his refining the formation plate had automatically dissipated.

The formation plate became an ownerless object.

Song Wen's spiritual consciousness easily invaded the formation plate.

He pinched a few magic formulas in his hand and hit them on the formation plate.

The formation plate began to emit bursts of pale green light.

The soul refining array also began to operate. The wandering ghosts in the array were restrained by the eight ghost flags and began to drill into the ghost flags.

Only the two ghost generals were still roaring in the array.

When Li Chenggu died, the spiritual consciousness he had imprinted on the two ghost generals also dissipated. The two ghost generals had been enslaved for a long time and regained their freedom. Naturally, they did not want to be controlled again. They kept attacking the array and wanted to escape.

Song Wen was not willing to let them go, and he kept pinching out the magic formula one after another.

The green light on the array plate was strong, and the power of the soul refining array became stronger and stronger. The two ghost generals, whose strength was greatly damaged, could not resist the power of the array after all, and were forcibly collected into a ghost flag.

Seeing this, Song Wen's face was happy, he flew up, put the eight ghost flags into the storage ring, turned around and ran out of the cave. When he reached the entrance of the cave, he put away the corpse puppet.

After leaving the cave, Song Wen found that the battle outside was still going on.

Wang Yi and his companions had been preparing for revenge for many years. They had prepared some means to kill most of the Li family members.

The Li family only had two cultivators in the early stage of foundation building, and they were still struggling with more than ten members in the Qi training stage. They were still expecting Li Chenggu to recover the strength of the two ghost generals as soon as possible and return to rescue.

Wang Yi and his companions also paid a heavy price. Except for Wang Yi and Nie Qian, the other three had all died in the battle.

The purpose of this trip had been achieved. Song Wen did not intend to get involved in the battle between the two sides. He was about to withdraw from the mountain behind.

Suddenly, he saw the bodies of two Li family foundation building cultivators not far from the battlefield. They should have died not long ago, and the souls on the bodies had not dissipated.

Song Wen immediately changed his mind and rushed towards the two bodies.

When he escaped from the Corpse Demon Sect, he was killed by Wu Ren and Yan Yuyan, and four substitute puppets were killed. He lacked the souls of cultivators to devour and had not been replenished.

Song Wen's figure flashed by the edge of the battlefield, holding a corpse in each hand. After devouring the souls of the two corpses, he put the corpses into the storage ring.

Song Wen's appearance attracted the attention of both sides of the battle. The corpse evil breath emanating from him showed that he was not a righteous person.

Nie Qian looked alert, and while attacking the Li family monks, she shouted, "Who are you?"

Wang Yi also noticed Song Wen. Looking at Song Wen's figure shrouded in a black cloak, he suddenly remembered the mysterious monk who walked into his shop that day to inquire about the Xuanyin Stone.

He hurriedly said to Nie Qian, "Don't provoke this person, he should not be an enemy."

The Li family monks became more and more panicked. They saw clearly that Song Wen came from the direction of Li Chenggu's cave where he practiced hard, which gave them an uneasy premonition: Li Chenggu might have been killed by this person.

Seeing that both sides continued to fight and had no intention of provoking him, Song Wen took advantage of the situation and collected a few more corpses whose souls had not dissipated.

Then, he went forward all the way, heading straight for the Tianhe River.

It is not advisable to stay here for long.

The battle between the two sides has lasted for more than a quarter of an hour. The violent fluctuations and movements of spiritual energy can easily attract other cultivators, so it is better to stay away as soon as possible.

"Plop!"

Song Wen jumped into the Tianhe River, restrained his whole body's breath, and was swept down the river by the surging water.

Two hours later, Song Wen walked out of the river, took out the flying boat, and flew in the air.

Another half day, Song Wen, who had traveled more than 3,000 miles, landed on a small mountain.

There is a lack of spiritual energy here, and cultivators generally do not come here. He plans to refine Wu Ren's body into a corpse puppet here.

"The Qi-Gathering and Spirit-Isolating Array" is still in the market, and Song Wen did not bring it this time.

However, he found a set of arrays called "Nine Palaces Transformation Yin Array" in Li Chenggu's storage ring. This is a genuine third-level array that has the effect of gathering and hiding the turbid air of heaven and earth.

Li Chenggu has been killing people and refining souls for many years in the mountain deep in the family's residence, and he has not been discovered by outsiders. He relies on this set of formations.

Song Wen roughly understands this person's life from a cultivation manual in Li Chenggu's storage ring.

The Li family was originally a weak immortal cultivation family with only Qi-cultivating cultivators. Li Chenggu was very talented. With the strong support of the family, he finally succeeded in building a foundation.

After Li Chenggu entered the foundation-building period, due to the limited resources that the family could provide, his cultivation progress became very slow.

Li Chenggu, who was unwilling to stop at the foundation-building period, had the idea of ​​practicing magic. Only with strong strength can you plunder more cultivation resources.

In the righteous world, it is not easy to obtain a complete magic technique.

Li Chenggu pieced together some of the secret techniques of the corpse, ghost, and blood ways.

With the secret techniques, it is natural to collect cultivation materials, and the first is the essence, blood, and soul.

He began to slaughter mortals in some remote places and kill some lone cultivators.

After refining a powerful ghost general, he refined fierce ghosts for his fellow clansmen to enhance the strength of the entire family.

After nearly thirty years of accumulation, the strength of the Li family has grown by leaps and bounds, and the resources plundered have become more and more, so there are more and more talented clansmen who have successfully built their foundations.

It is not known whether the ghost art that Li Chenggu got was problematic or incomplete. Long-term practice of the ghost art caused a large amount of ghost energy to enter his body, and his body gradually became exhausted and looked like an old corpse.

So, he began to practice the corpse art again, trying to devour the essence and blood of others to make up for the loss of blood.

The corpse dissection platform and blood pool in the cave are used to provide him with essence and blood.
