The strong Yin energy had already made Ji Yuan feel uncomfortable, but he also discovered that there were at least two Yin messengers always blocking in front of him, probably intentionally blocking a considerable amount of Yin energy for a mortal like him.
At this moment, the four city god officials in the courtyard were showing their power, and most of the other ghost messengers, except for the nine soul-catching messengers who controlled the soul-binding chains, were on standby.
It was called a battle, but from Ji Yuan's perspective it was just that the horrible ghost was tied up in the air with soul-binding chains and was being beaten up, well, beaten up in the literal sense.
When the Judge's Pen or the Soul Whip falls on ghosts, it can cause a sharp whistle and reduce some of the evil spirit.
This was not the first time that Ji Yuan had all kinds of associations and doubts about his eyesight. This time, the feeling was further deepened. Not only could he see the ghosts and monsters clearly, he could even see the process of the evil spirits being dispersed and eliminated.
As if it really realized that it had reached a critical moment, the ghost locked in the soul-binding chain struggled more and more violently.
“Ah~~~~~~~~”
Amid the screams, countless pale arms shot out and grabbed the surrounding Yinchai.
Several officials under the City God brandished their magic weapons, and the courtyard was filled with strange Yin energy to resist, blocking most of the Yin claws at once, but six or seven Yin messengers were still caught, including three soul-catchers.
“Dang~” “Dang~”…
A ghost messenger swung his knife and hit the ghost's claw to help his companion escape, but it made a sound like the collision of metal.
"Hehe uh~~~~~"
“Ah!!!” “Ah!!!” “Ah!!!”…
The seven ghost messengers had their bodies shattered by the pale claws of the arms, and were turned into black mist and sucked into the claws. The three soul-binding chains lost control and became like three big whips as the ghosts struggled.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...
Many ghost messengers around were hit directly by the soul-binding chains. Their souls became unstable and were knocked away one after another.
“Bold!!!”
The four great incense officials opened their eyes wide and leaped forward together. Four streams of yin energy mixed with the scent of sandalwood mixed in the sky above the courtyard and intertwined into a big net.
"Here!!!"
A huge net dropped from the sky, covering the vicious ghost that was about to escape.
Woo~~~Wow~~~~
There was a strong wind blowing in the courtyard. It was no longer just a gloomy and cold wind, but a real strong wind. The branches of the jujube tree were swaying violently, and fallen leaves and other objects seemed to be flying around without being restricted by the formation. Ji Yuan could only stretch out his hand to block the dust and fallen leaves.
At this moment, Ji Yuan was not only shocked, but also filled with fear.
"Damn it, is this the thing I just dealt with? Luckily this thing likes to 'chew slowly'. If it showed its current attitude, it would have died before I could even use my ultimate power! ! "
The judge's pen in Wu Pan's hand spun and rose up, and he roared.
"Drain its spirit and courage!!!"
The other three officials under the City God also used their magic weapons to attack, and the other ghosts also took action, attacking through the big net, especially those soul-binding chains, which made the ghosts tremble with every pull.
"Ah~~~~~"
The screams almost pierced Ji Yuan's eardrums. The ghosts in the giant net expanded rapidly. Judge Wu saw that things were not going well, so he retracted his judge's pen, turned the tip of the pen into a needle, and pointed it fiercely at the center of the net.
“Break it for me!!”
"Bang~~"
The negative and evil spirits exploded and were all vented onto Wu Pan.
With a bang, Wu Pan was blown away by the evil spirit, and a gap instantly appeared in the giant net that bound the terrifying ghost.
“Not good!!!” “Block it!!!”
The other three officials of the City God immediately joined forces, but they were unable to make up for Wu Pan's weakness, and the ghost was about to escape.
With the arrangement of Ju'an Pavilion, this evil creature may not be able to escape and harm Ning'an County, but the many evil spirits in the soul-locking formation are likely to suffer.
Ji Yuan didn’t know how critical the situation was, but even though he was an outsider, he could see that it was very dangerous.
It seems a little unsafe to sit in the yard at this time...
Out of fear, Ji Yuan stood up subconsciously, intending to run away, but he did not expect that it would cause unexpected changes.
Ji Yuan's sudden standing up stopped the increasingly violent struggle of the ferocious ghosts in the yard, and they shrank back into the soul-trapping net as if frightened.
"Good opportunity! Don't be distracted!!"
As the roar sounded, Wu Pan returned to his position.
The City God's officials and ghost messengers would not be fooled by ghosts. Behind the chief officials of the four departments under the City God, the shadows of incense began to spread, and their figures seemed to be slightly taller, and their official robes were bulging.
The giant net lit up with grey light and then shrank. The four main officers waved their hands and four soul-binding chains flew out from each of them. They were thrown forward and the soul-binding chains seemed to transform into four spirit snakes, tightly wrapping around the net emitting grey light.
After the thrilling experience just now, they realized that even if this ferocious ghost was seriously injured, it could not be easily captured without paying a huge price. At this moment, all the money had been spent!
"The City God is as bright as the dust, driving away evil spirits and enchanting ghosts, illuminating the vast world!"
From the direction of the City God Temple, streams of incense power like smoke flew over and landed in the courtyard of the Ju'an Pavilion. The four City Gods' respective chief officers were in high spirits.
"Although my Ning'an County has only over 10,000 people under its jurisdiction, I will not allow you, this evil creature, to cause cholera and die!!!"
The judge's pen, the soul-beating whip, the inspection book, and the longevity robe, taking advantage of the right time and place, attacked the vicious ghosts with all their might.
"Boom..."
There seemed to be thunder in the courtyard of Ju'an Pavilion...
. . .
Ji Yuan had been holding his breath for a while. In fact, if he had used a stopwatch, he would have been surprised that his breath-holding ability had become so strong.
It was not until the shrill screams of the ghost in the yard became weaker and weaker, and until the ghost finally turned into ashes, that Ji Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, fortunately, the side of justice won!!!"
With his legs a little weak, Ji Yuan sat back on the small chair in front of the house, but when he caught his breath, he felt something was wrong.
When he looked up, he was surprised to see that the aura of the formation in the courtyard had disappeared. The chief officials of the four departments of the City God and all the ghost officials were standing in the courtyard facing him.
Ji Yuan’s throat moved slightly and he didn’t dare to swallow his saliva. Could this be a murder to silence the witness
After a long time, Judge Wu took the lead, and the other three chief officials and the ghost messengers all stepped forward and bowed.
"We are short-sighted and don't recognize the master's identity!"
"Thanks for your help!"
A chorus of thanks rang out.
I was wondering before whether there was a master passing by to deflect the evil spirit from the door, but I didn't expect that the master had been sitting in the yard the whole time. It is true that a real person does not show his true face, and a person who shows his true face is not a real person!
The chief officer of the Fourth Department did not say much. Judging from the previous behavior of the people in the courtyard, they naturally did not want to be disturbed. So after bowing again and again, he led the ghost messengers under the City God to leave Ju'an Pavilion, intending to report to the City God first and then make a decision.
Ji Yuan also didn't know what to say to them. He didn't know much about things like the City God. After thinking about it for a while, he had no idea and simply said nothing.
To be honest, in this case, he didn't want to be the master, but the ghost was indeed seriously injured by him, and it was not a lie. It was only right for him to accept his thanks.
When the courtyard returned to tranquility and only the gentle breeze was left, Ji Yuan sat down on the chair like a dead dog, rubbing his heart which had been repeatedly and violently stimulated.
I raised my head and opened my tired eyes, then looked at the well in the yard. The eerie and terrifying feeling disappeared, and I felt more at ease.
"If you keep going like this, you might have a heart attack someday!"
After calming down for a while, Ji Yuan had enough energy to think about this and that.
For example, what exactly was in the well? Even if one is not knowledgeable, one knows that it is definitely not an ordinary evil ghost. Also, why did the City God of Ning'an County not come in person even though the place was so short? There must be another reason.
