I naturally know that Xinbo is not well-intentioned, but what he said is grandiose!
I could not possibly move forward, I slightly retreated, already at the edge of the small tower, one more step back and I would roll down the slope. Without using inner energy and Daoist techniques, with such a slope to roll down, there is no chance of survival.
The exposure we are facing now exceeds our expectations.
If we don't fight, we will be taken over, and the consequences will be endless!
"Xinbo, can you accept a damaged corpse?" I stared fixedly at Xinbo, my voice hoarse as I posed the question.
At the same time, I gave a sudden push with my hand, and the Gao Tian sword shot out!
The soles of my feet pressed hard on the ground, and my body was about to retreat backwards.
There is no choice!
Even if it means falling off the cliff, I cannot let him succeed!
It's a pity that our father and son were tricked by the Agonglama. Our only hope is that Xinbo does not succeed!
My father's body is well-protected. I can only let him self-sacrifice!
Too late to speak, too quick to act.
Suddenly, a piercing coldness penetrated through my heart. There was a sense of peeling off, as if the skin on my back was about to be stripped off!
Xinbo's hand rhythmically slapped at something on his waist.
It was a small drum, its sound clear and resonant, perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the heartbeat!
My limbs and bones felt as if they were being restrained. The coldness continued to advance, and I would have fallen apart if not for the sudden push that sent me flying forward!
Standing frozen in place, unable to move an inch, a terrifying presence appeared beside me. He was clad in silver chainmail, which looked like a silver garment, but the open spaces revealed flesh exposed to the outside, with no skin in sight. His face was normal, his eyes filled with devoutness.
The devotion was directed towards Xinbo...
"He peeled off your skin! How can you still look at him and listen to his orders? Are you crazy?"
The old Gong showed great anger and swore at the ghost thing beside me.
The deities that the Black City Temple considers are too terrifying.
In the end, the ghost thing did not move at all, nor did it seem to be affected by the old Gong.
I was still unable to move, this was far beyond the scope of my strength!
I managed to lift my head with an effort, looking up at the position above me, gasping heavily.
"Raise your head... three meters..."
"I have a deity..." I croaked softly.
"The deity is pleased, and so am I," Xinbo said, his eyes sparkling as he joined in.
"Do you understand?" he asked.
"Do you want it, or does he?" My lips bled.
At this critical moment, it is essential to break the deadlock!
Ding Ruipu, maybe that's our chance!
I need them to fight each other like dogs biting each other!
We need to get Ding Ruipu to confront Xinbo!
As they are of the same realm, Xinbo can sense Ding Ruipu's presence and therefore, must be able to see her as well!
Old Gong's temper gradually subsided. The expression in his eyes was very fascinating, and he muttered: "Good! Good! The old lady matches the dead dwarf. Let's see who can beat who? However, I think you're not up to it, my Ding family lady! You have no idea how formidable my Ding family lady is. As soon as she appears, you'll have to kneel under her crimson silk dress!"
"I tell you, she is the most beautiful in all the world, and you won't be able to withstand her!"
Old Gong's words were quite straightforward. Numerous scholars have fallen for Ding Ruipu, and he inferred that Xinbo would also be the same.
Xinbo was taken aback.
A hint of dissatisfaction finally appeared on his face.
"I thought you had enlightenment, but you haven't."
"And you, this ghost head, are like a rat in the dark dungeon, tiresome."
"Then what can you do? I like watching you dislike me, and yet you can't do anything about it!" Old Gong's mouth is the toughest!
As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished into thin air.
Xinbo smacked the drum face twice with his hand, and the ghost thing beside me suddenly reached out with both hands towards my shoulder.
Lao Gong predicted it very accurately, and the ghost thing missed its target.
However, he didn't catch Lao Gong, but instead grabbed my shoulder and tried to drag me towards Xinbo!
Just then, another sudden change occurred!
However, it was not Ding Ruipu who appeared, but rather Lao Gong who suddenly emerged from my chest again, with his head growing larger and larger like a giant in an instant.
His eyes showed not fearlessness but determination.
His usual glib talk and mischievous demeanor vanished, replaced by a sense of facing death without fear.
For a moment, I had goosebumps all over my body. The previous noise and chaos from Lao Gong, as well as his sudden reckless attitude, formed a sharp contrast.
He swallowed the ghost thing viciously!
It's not that Lao Gong didn't want to deal with Xinbo; it's that he couldn't, so he had to deal with the ghost thing beside me.
"Run!"
A sharp roar sounded in my ears.
Instantly, I regained control over my body that had been restrained, and my eyes reddened.
I know, Lao Gong seems to be stuck.
If he didn't eat that ghost thing, his soul would crumble, and he would become formless and follow me.
But if he doesn't eat it, he can't help me regain my ability to move.
Moreover, there is Xinbo in front of us!
In the puffing sound, it was Lao Gong's lips moving, with his large yellow teeth shooting directly at Xinbo! His mouth was still flapping vigorously as if he were chewing the ghost thing!
Instantly, scrolls appeared on Lao Gong's face, a sight too bizarre!
It's like Lao Gong's head became a Buddhist head.
An even more bizarre scene unfolded, a sharp pain surged through my hand, and a string of bone beads simply fell out!
Lao Gong's face was twisting, but he didn't collapse under the constraints of the scrolls.
His eyes suddenly became very solemn, completely unlike him.
It was more like he had been possessed!
But Lao Gong is already a ghost, how can a ghost be possessed by another ghost!?
"Agong?"
Xinbo's face finally showed a hint of seriousness. He suddenly sat cross-legged, holding something in his hand, which looked like an lotus pedestal.
Lao Gong's head, instantly returned to its original size. The bone bead bracelet that I had dropped on the ground appeared in his hand.
"Buzz! Ah! Mew!"
The heavy voice, like a Buddhist chant, caused my mind to suddenly become clear. Even the dark sky of the Black City Temple seemed like it was about to be lifted open!
Xinbo shook violently, a droplet of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth!
All of this happened too quickly, it was truly instantaneous!
Lao Gong, it turns out, is also a puppet of the Agonglama!
This strike is incredibly powerful!
I dared not linger. I turned sharply, recited a Daoist incantation, and slid down the slope diagonally!
Heading towards the Black City Temple at full speed!
The slope's inclination angle is at least 60-70 degrees, more like a cliff!
With my kung fu, the overwhelming heat in my body, and willpower, I was able to maintain my balance on the slope!
The heart is bleeding.
This isn't just a loss without gain; it's likely that I'll lose Lao Gong as well!
My footwork is lightning-fast, and I pull out the pendant hanging from my neck, which is where Lao Gong's soul resides.
I bite my tongue and suddenly put the bone bead in my mouth, soaking it with blood.
My words were slurred and low, as I recited: "Whimsical ghost, where do you remain? Surprises and the strange, in graves and mountains! Today, I call upon the Mountain God, the Five Roads General, the local Earth God, and the Household God, to search for the lost soul, retrieve it from the body, reinforce the spirit! Heaven's gate opens, earth's gate opens; a thousand miles of child spirits come to send back the soul!"
The fingers moved rapidly, sketching out a magical symbol!
I am using the item that Lao Gong is possessed by as a trigger, my own body as a medium, and blood as an offering, to summon Lao Gong's possession!
