Chapter 19 Purification Ceremony!
Many big guys had no sense of crisis, playing cards and shaking dice in various ways.
Gu Luosheng didn't have the luxury of this, so he closed his eyes and rested, adjusting his state.
Night fell quickly.
The four teams set off and came to the stage that had been built long ago.
"Woo woo woo~~~"
The sound of the wind?
No, it was the sound of bamboo.
Before Gu Luosheng arrived at the scene, he heard the unique sound of bamboo from afar.
In an open space, a green bamboo was built to form an altar, on which a big drum was placed.
Every five meters around, a modified bamboo was inserted, with flames burning and bells hanging on the top.
"Ding ding ding!"
Approaching, Gu Luosheng suddenly discovered that the altar actually occupied a large area, and there were two girls in white skirts, similar to ancient witches, kneeling on it.
The two sat back to back, closing their eyes and meditating.
There are bells tied on both sides of the hair on both hands and feet. When the wind blows, they jingle, but compared with the sound of bamboo, it is very insignificant. You can only hear it clearly when you get close.
Gu Luosheng looked at the sky and felt that it was about eight or nine o'clock. There was still an hour before the purification ceremony began.
Without saying much, the four teams dispersed and guarded one side.
Wang Yue walked up to the altar alone and sat on the main seat of the altar. His breath merged with the altar.
"Captain, what's the situation with those two girls? The host of the purification ceremony?" Gu Luosheng asked in a low voice.
He knew that the ancient witches basically wore witch clothes of different colors according to different situations.
But this is another world, and the specific situation is still to be discussed.
"The host is hunter Wang Yue, and they are just offerings to attract spirits."
"The spirit clothes they wear can attract a large number of spirits under the blessing of the altar..."
"Why are you paying attention to this? It's better to think about how to kill spirits next. There are special recorders here. The more you kill, the more contribution points you will get after the ceremony!"
Liu Ying said lightly.
Spirits are a kind of evil spirits, which can be understood as the lowest level of evil spirits. The threat level is relatively low. Only after contacting resentment and turning into resentful spirits or even evil spirits can they pose a huge threat to practitioners.
"The purification ceremony turns out to be to attract spirits to kill. It's really simple and crude..."
Gu Luosheng's mouth twitched.
He glanced at the witch for a few times. It was pitiful, but it was a pity that he couldn't save himself, so how could he save others?
...
At about ten o'clock in the evening, the moonlight was cold.
"Ding ding ding!"
Silver bells rang.
The two witches stood up and danced slowly around the drum, and the clear sound spread.
"Wandering souls, where can they stay?"
"Three souls have come, and seven spirits are coming."
"There are graves and forests by the riverside and in the wild."
"I was frightened and lost my true soul."
"If you don't show it now, when will you be reborn!"
A strong wind started.
The mantras were amplified by the bamboo, and they spread out for thousands of meters and echoed continuously.
Being in the ceremony, I felt it was extremely sacred and magnificent, and my mind was shocked.
This soul-calling ceremony took effect almost immediately.
Amid the echoing bells, a stream of spirits emerged one after another, even densely packed.
Gu Luosheng stimulated his internal energy and punched the approaching old man's spirit. White smoke came out from the point where his fist touched the spirit, as if he was fighting against something. He circulated five silk internal energy in one breath, and then completely suppressed it.
The old man's spirit twisted and then exploded. It seemed that it was destroyed.
But Gu Luosheng looked at the countless spirits outside and couldn't help showing a look of horror.
How to fight with so many people?
"Kill!"
Wang Yue on the main seat shouted the word "Kill", and the whole Mingzhu Altar echoed with the sound.
The invisible sound waves rippled, and wherever they passed, all the spirits were destroyed.
The large number of spirits that arrived in the first batch were directly swept away by one word. This is the function of the Mingzhu Altar.
The number of spirits that came later no longer seemed invincible.
Everyone drew out the Mingzhu swords inserted in the ground and killed these spirits.
Gu Luosheng glanced at Wang Yue with his peripheral vision, but saw that Wang Yue's forehead was spreading with fiery red patterns. The terrifying aura revealed was that even if a hundred of him came, it would be useless. It was completely on a different level.
He shuddered and drew out a Mingzhu sword to kill many spirits.
Ordinary weapons cannot cause damage to spirits. Practitioners either use their bare hands to kill directly with internal energy, or use weapons and props with spirit attack effects.
Gu Luosheng didn't know whether things like black dog blood were useful, but Mingzhu was definitely useful.
With the help of Mingzhu Sword, Gu Luosheng only needs to use a small amount of internal energy to increase himself, and does not need to infuse a large amount of internal energy to forcibly kill the spirits. The consumption and pressure are greatly reduced.
The four teams are fighting, and the two witches have not stopped the soul-calling dance, causing a large number of spirits to continue to flow to them, and from time to time some spirits are missed.
However, during the soul-calling dance, they also have extraordinary power, and those who approach are crushed without exception.
But the price is that the faces of the two witches are getting paler and paler.
They have to dance for a full hour, and their physical energy consumption is already very large. They also have to endure the backlash of the ritual to kill the spirits. No wonder Liu Ying said that they are sacrifices.
Even if they can survive afterwards, I am afraid that their lifespan will be greatly reduced, and they will die in the pain of illness.
After realizing this, Gu Luosheng couldn't help but work harder to kill the spirits...
He himself didn't realize these anxieties until a scream sounded from a distance, waking Gu Luosheng up.
A hunter was attacked by a vengeful spirit that was obviously stronger than an ordinary spirit.
This hunter was extremely fast and agile, but after the resentful spirit grabbed the hunter's hand, his body froze and all movements came to an abrupt halt.
Then, he was engulfed by the swarming spirit bodies, and even an explosion of inner energy could not save him.
Gu Luosheng was shocked when he saw this.
What was he thinking? Trying to kill the enemy was just asking for death. It was impossible to change anything.
If you don’t start from the source, everything is just self-comfort!
"I died so miserably..."
A wraith roared.
The more ordinary spirits die, the more they gradually gather into higher-level resentful spirits. They carry strong killing intent and are as powerful as ordinary people. They require hunters to consume more inner energy to kill them.
Gu Luosheng also faced one. Even though his speed and power were completely superior to that of the resentful spirit, he also consumed fifty streams of silk energy to kill the resentful spirit.
As the number of wraiths increased, he had to use his basic inner energy to increase himself in all directions.
"Chasing Spirit Wolf!"
Gu Luosheng used the same move continuously to clean up ordinary spirits around him at a faster speed.
The basic inner Qi is much stronger than the inner Qi of silk. It is faintly transmitted to the Mingzhu Sword, greatly increasing its lethality. It can kill an ordinary spirit with almost a few swords.
But the basic internal energy can only last for one minute, and it is obviously not a power that can be used at will. After Gu Luosheng killed a few, the basic internal energy was exhausted. He quickly ate the prepared monster meat and quickly restored the internal energy.
This is also his advantage. Even in the middle of a battle, he can take time to recover his inner energy.
It may seem like a huge expenditure, but in fact it is in better shape than most of the team members, and they still have enough energy to protect themselves.
