He even imitated his master’s tone to tease his senior brother.
“What do you know? Female ghosts and paper effigies are wonderful!”
“Brother Wei will make one for you someday. You’ll know how many years you’ve wasted.”
The fat Daoist priest’s skin was clearly thick. He did not avoid these things at all. Instead, he used his hands to gesture at the curvaceous curves.
“Hmph! Wonderful? Your junior brother entered the sect ten years later than you. His cultivation is about to surpass yours!”
“If you continue like this, believe it or not, I’ll make you become a pure person by force!”
At this moment, the apricot-robed Daoist who had been running in front also turned around and returned to their side.
After checking the fat Daoist and discovering that he was not injured, he reprimanded him.
“Now that the Zombie King has appeared, quickly follow me! Otherwise, the people in a thousand miles will definitely be plunged into misery and suffering.”
“Eh? What a heavy yin qi!”

However, at this moment, the compass needle in his hand turned and began to tremble violently.
That could only point to the end of this official road.
After giving the fat disciple a medicinal pill to recover his strength, the three of them turned around and hurried along the pointed direction.
Soon, a human city appeared ahead.
At first, their expressions were solemn, thinking that this was a town that had been slaughtered by the Zombie King.
However, after approaching, he discovered that not only had there been no massacre here, but the population was also dense. The streets were constantly noisy, and it was a scene of prosperity and peace.
“Master, this area is remote. The surrounding towns are all poor and naked. How can this place be so rich?”
“No, look at the surrounding houses carefully. Although the surface is bright and beautiful, the foundation is rotten and dilapidated.”
“This town should have been a poor place a few months ago. It’s as if it suddenly made a fortune recently.”
The three of them walked in the city and quickly discovered many abnormalities.
Every family in this city was cooking fiercely. The smell of cooking filled the entire town.
“It’s clearly not mealtime, so why is everyone cooking? Moreover, isn’t that appetite too much?”
“There are less than ten thousand people in this city, but the food cooked should be enough for a million people.”
In this city, the entrance of every house was filled with food in wooden barrels that were half the height of a person. There was more than one barrel in each house.
Clearly, it was impossible for the locals to digest these hot dishes. This place did not look like a bustling business, so how could there be so many people eating here?
“Food is not only for humans.”
“Find a place to stay. Qian Kai and Xu Lai, come and scout the vicinity. Be careful not to be discovered.”
“You have to return before dark. That Zombie King might appear at any time.”
The apricot-robed Daoist found an inn. Everyone in the inn was busy. After throwing him a key, they hurriedly returned to the kitchen.
The Daoist quietly slipped into the kitchen to observe. He discovered that when those chefs were cooking, other than the seasoning that they usually used, they would also sprinkle handfuls of incense ash in the pot.
Seeing this scene, he was even more certain that these dishes were not for humans.
The changes in this city must be related to some demons.
As a cultivator, he innately hated such demons and ghosts.
Moreover, after thinking about it, it was very likely that the Zombie King would be attracted by the yin qi here. Therefore, he decided to stay for the time being and observe the situation.
Night gradually fell. The stove in the city burned for an entire day without stopping.
Then, under the night sky, barrels of food were loaded onto the carriages. All the residents in the city pushed the carriages and carried the wine towards an empty space outside the city.
At this moment, the two disciples of the apricot-robed Daoist ran back.
“Master, Master! Look what I found!”
“There’s a newly built strange temple outside the city. It’s magnificent.”
“I wiped my eyes with the copper coins and knew at a glance that there was something wrong with that temple. The temple attendant inside is actually a fox!”
“The people in this city must have been bewitched by the fox demon to become like this.”
“I personally took action and captured the fox demon. Master, should we kill the demon now?”
The fat Daoist priest, Qian Kai, smiled widely. In his hand was a large fox with shiny fur.
There were several bloodstains on the fox’s body, and it was still grimacing at them.
“You took its demon core?”
The Daoist frowned. He did not sense any baneful aura from this fox. Presumably, even if this fox demon did evil, it had not killed anyone.
After a creature like a fox demon cultivated to a certain extent, they needed to enter the mortal world to cultivate. Most of them would be kind to others and were not the target of their exorcism.
Now that his disciple had taken out the other party’s demon core, it caused its cultivation to be crippled and could not even speak. It was indeed a little too much.
“Hehe, you found out, Master. I’m filial and want to take out its inner core to brew wine for you.”
“Demon core wine is full of vitality. Master, you must try it.”
The fat Daoist was clearly still full of vigor.
“Tie it up first. Killing for no reason is not beneficial to cultivation.”
The Daoist shook his head and did not say anything.
After all, it was only a demon. Did he have to uphold justice and cripple his disciple?
“Follow me. Let’s see where those townspeople are going.”
After Qian Kai tied up the fox, he stuffed it into a cloth bag. Then, the three of them jumped into the air and followed behind the vast convoy with the yellow talisman.
The convoy pushed food that was enough for a million people all the way to a temple outside the city.
They piled up the food that they had worked hard to make for a day and walked into the temple. Everyone placed three incense sticks in front of the statue before driving the carriage back.
They had been doing this for half a year.
When they returned, they would discover that there would be gold and silver in front of the banyan tree at the entrance of the village.
That was the secret that they had become rich in a short period of time. How could a little fear of the mountain spirits and ghosts resist the temptation of the yellow-white item?
After the townspeople left, the Daoist appeared with his two disciples.
After entering the incense-filled temple, he discovered that what was worshiped on it was a strange statue of Buddha and Demon with a thousand hands on its back.
“This temple and statue are both filled with yin qi. One look and I can tell that they’re not good things. Master, should we destroy this evil temple?”
The fat Daoist priest, Qian Kai, had just obtained a demon core and his mind was filled with killing demons.
“Senior Brother, destroying someone’s cultivation is like killing their parents. The hatred will be irreconcilable.”
The skinny Daoist Xu Lai spoke slowly from the side. The fat Daoist’s hand that was holding the peachwood sword trembled. He looked at the terrifying statue again and finally did not dare to attack.
“Shh! There’s movement outside. Don’t make a sound!”
At this moment, it was midnight. The full moon was in the sky, and a cold moonlight scattered down.
The fog was hazy. After it dissipated, a pitch-black ghost face door suddenly appeared in front of the small temple.
As soon as the door appeared, the yin qi within a hundred miles was drawn over.
The nearby wandering souls and ghosts also floated over as if they had been summoned.
The pupils of the apricot-robed Daoist hidden in the temple constricted, not daring to believe what he saw.
“The Gate of Hell! How can it be the Gate of Hell?!”
The Daoist’s name was Zhai Xing, and he inherited one of the orthodox Three Mountain Talismans of the Ancient Daoist lineage.
In his inheritance, there were especially detailed records of the Netherworld Ghost Region. Many of them were secrets that had been lost in the current cultivation world.
In the past, he had always read it as a story. He did not expect that today, by chance, he would actually see the Gate of Hell described in the ancient book!
“But hasn’t the Netherworld disappeared long ago? How can it still be…”
Before he could finish speaking, the two ghost-faced doors slowly opened in front of them.
Thick Yin qi surged out from behind the door, condensing the water vapor in the air into thick fog that spread out.
In the thick fog, a group of black-armored soldiers lined up and moved the large amount of food on the ground back to the door.
More ghost soldiers behind him carried barbed chains and spread out.
“The Gate of Hell is open, Yin soldiers have come to take souls!”
“Master! It’s the Yin soldiers! Isn’t that the Netherworld? Master, you didn’t lie to us.”
“By the way, don’t we still have a sixth-grade Merit Talisman? Can we go in and take the position of a Yin Priest?”
“Master, since you don’t need it, why don’t you give me this chance?”
