The photos of the dead in the documents were shocking.
It was not that their deaths were sinister and terrifying. Instead, there was not a single trace of injury on their bodies.
What was truly terrifying was that the state of each victim’s death was almost identical!
Everyone’s eyes were wide open, and their expressions were incomparably terrified. It was as if they had experienced something terrifying before death!
There was a dark bruise around their eye sockets. Their eye sockets were deeply sunken, and their bodies were like shriveled balloons. Their skin was somewhat wrinkled, and their bodies were extremely thin. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the corpses were skin and bones!
Wang Yi could not help but click his tongue. He was no longer as enthusiastic as before. These corpses were in a very similar state as the previous middle-aged house owner!
It was as if someone had sucked away their essence, energy, and spirit!
This was exactly the same as the legends of ghosts and monsters, where evil spirits sucked the yang energy of others!
Wang Yi was also a little puzzled. Could it be that there were really ghosts in the world of martial arts?
When he first entered the courtyard, he felt a faint spiritual energy circulating on the ancient tree. It was as if an illusory figure was appearing and disappearing from the tree!
Wang Yi was very sure that the figure was completely formed by spiritual energy. There was no trace of a physical body at all.
This figure absorbed one’s essence, energy, and spirit without a physical body. All these signs were exactly the same as the legendary ghosts!
Then were there ghosts and monsters in the underworld? Did this world have an underworld and heaven?
If heaven existed, did the Great Sage Equal to Heaven , who had peed in the hands of Buddha, also existed?
In that case, since he had been suppressed for 500 years, how did he resolve the issue of going to the toilet?
At that moment, Wang Yi no longer controlled his emotions. Instead, he started to let his imagination run wild.
Wang Yi was standing there motionlessly with the documents in hand, staring at an ancient tree without blinking. He even let out two strange laughs from time to time.
Upon seeing this, Fang Mingze couldn’t help but remind him!
Only then did Wang Yi come back to his senses. He felt a little embarrassed and laughed dryly.
“Well, I’ll show you guys the so-called dirty thing!”
When Wang Yi said this, he gritted his teeth. This thing had almost made him lose face!
At the same time, he was furious. Who cared if it was a real ghost?
Even if it was really a ghost, wasn’t it formed by a spiritual body?
He could simply slash it. He could even flip it into the sky!
With that, Wang Yi walked toward the ancient tree.
The two of them were stunned. They did not know what was wrong with Wang Yi, but they chased after him!
The ancient tree’s branches were twisted and strong. Its huge trunk almost enveloped the entire courtyard. Meanwhile, its branches quietly fell and continuously swayed with the breeze!
“Sir, come out!”
Wang Yi stood beside the ancient tree and spoke.
However, apart from his voice, there was no change in the entire courtyard. Wang Yi could not help but frown and say again, “Hmph! Do you want me to invite you out?” His voice surged and reverberated like thunder, shaking the ancient tree!
However, other than the swaying of the branches becoming stronger, there was still no change in the yard!
This time, Wang Yi was really unhappy. He was furious and kept cursing.
“It seems like you want to do this the hard way. I’ve given you enough face, haven’t I?” With that, Wang Yi extended his hand and pressed it to the trunk of the ancient tree.
Boom!
A majestic wave of extreme yang true qi surged along the tree trunk toward the top of the tree.
The temperature around the entire ancient tree instantly increased by more than ten degrees. Surging waves of heat continuously appeared!
Roar!
An inhuman scream sounded from the top of the tree!
Following that, black mist appeared on the ancient tree.
Then, the black mist instantly gathered and transformed into a nearly nine meters tall figure!
Wang Yi could not help but feel amused as he looked at the other party smugly.
“Bastard! Weren’t you reluctant to come out? Try to hide from me again!”
Meanwhile, Fang Mingze and Tang Zhenyu watched Wang Yi’s actions from the side. They could not help but be dumbfounded as they did not expect that he would actually summon a “dirty thing!”
However, in the next moment, their expressions changed drastically. The mountain-like pressure from the figure pressed down on them!
Both of them found it difficult to breathe. The pressure only disappeared when Wang Yi shielded them behind him!
The two of them felt that although it had only been a short moment, their backs were already drenched in sweat!
When they looked at the black shadow again, their eyes were filled with fear!
This figure was simply too terrifying. It was only the pressure of its aura, yet it actually suppressed them to the point of being unable to raise their heads. Their lives and deaths had been out of their control!
However, something even more shocking happened!
It concerned the “pet cat” that had been following Wang Yi without any presence!
At this moment, it was as if it had transformed into a prehistoric beast. A terrifying aura rose around it, colliding, squeezing, and rubbing against the aura emitted by the black shadow.
In the void, there were arcs of lightning flashing, while rumbling sounds constantly resounded. It appeared extremely terrifying!
The Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard simply stood up on its hind legs. The fur on its body stood up one by one, and a pair of small silver wings instantly unfolded, turning into two silver heavenly blades!
Although its body was only the size of a palm at this moment, its aura was not inferior to that of the black shadow!
The Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard stared intently at the black shadow, its beast eyes filled with vigilance. The muscles on its entire body were taut, and it could deliver a fatal strike at any moment!
It kept producing provocative roars at the same time.
Bang!
The Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard, which was still exuding an imposing aura like a prehistoric beast, was kicked out by Wang Yi!
“How troublesome!”
Wang Yi retracted his leg and could not help but mumble!
Only then did the Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard suddenly react. Just now, because of the stimulation of the opponent’s aura, it subconsciously prepared to fight it. However, it had forgotten its current identity!
It was no longer the Silver-Winged Great Beast King. It was just another person’s battle pet.
It was the battle pet of a great and vicious human!
As for fighting? Forget it! There was a fierce person in front of it. Whoever came to fight this person would be unlucky!
Upon thinking of this, the Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard couldn’t help but turn around. With a twist, it walked toward a corner and lay on the ground, pretending to be dead.
Wang Yi ignored the Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard and looked at the figure curiously.
Was this the so-called “dirty thing?”
Could it be that all ghosts and monsters looked like this? Other than being taller, they didn’t look that scary!
However, no matter what happened on Wang Yi’s side, the figure’s heart was in turmoil!
It could not understand how the other party had discovered it when it was clearly hiding within the God-Subduing Needle.
Didn’t the elders say that as long as it was attached to the God-Subduing Needle, others would not be able to discover it unless they were at the Connate Realm?
No matter how he looked at it, none of the people present were in the Connate Realm!
Wang Yi stared at the figure and scanned it with his spiritual energy. Then, he was stunned!
