However, even for immortal cultivators, catching ghosts is not a simple matter. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Especially in this kind of lofty mountains, the ghosts that appear in rare places are mostly old ghosts that are older than old wines - ghosts are similar to old wine, and the older they are, the higher the quality, but everyone likes old wine, and it is very ghostly...... Monks who study exorcism also like it. As long as it is within the scope of one's own control, the older the better, but the old ghost is more difficult to catch.

Especially now it is still midnight, when the yin qi is the heaviest, and it is also the time when things like yin ghosts and demons are the strongest, at this time, if Huang Chang jumps down and makes a move with the ghost, it is as if he was playing an air battle with the mountain eagle in the sky before, purely asking for his own suffering. So Huang Chang sat patiently on the tree and didn't move. The formation he arranged already had a certain hidden trace effect, coupled with his own cultivation of the Wood Exercise Technique, after a little while, the whole person seemed to become a part of the big tree. The ghosts floated unconsciously past the trunk of the tree, unaware of a large living person above it, even though they came out in the middle of the night to prey on living creatures and suck their vitality and yang energy to strengthen themselves.

It wasn't until the sky gradually glowed red and dawn was approaching that Huang Changfang carefully climbed down from the trunk of the tree and began his ghost-hunting operation. At this time, the yin energy gradually disappears, and the yang energy is just born, which is the time when the yin and yang alternate between heaven and earth, and the demons, ghosts, and yin souls return to their respective places, but they will return to the moment when they have not returned. It was still easier to find them at this point, without fear of being attacked by those things - they could not afford to delay, and it would be dawn after a little delay. For such shady things, the sun's rays are definitely the most terrifying and irresistible killers. At this point, even if a living person appeared in front of the spirits, they wouldn't have time to cull them - provided that they weren't killed all at once, of course, or the ghosts wouldn't mind another big meal before they hid themselves.

After Huang Chang jumped off the tree, he searched forward along the path that those Yin Spirits had previously drifted by, these ghosts condensed into bodies through Yin Qi, and there were inevitably some traces of Yin Qi left in the area they passed. Ordinary people can't see it, but Huang Chang had drunk the "Youquan Stone Milk" given by Li Ji Niangniang in Pangeng Mausoleum, and washed his eyes with it, and he had opened his yin and yang eyes. So at this moment, in his eyes, the gray-black marks were as striking as the slime pathways left by the worms, as long as he followed these traces, Huang Chang could find the hiding place of those ghosts, and then come to an urn to catch turtles - no matter how fierce those ghosts were, they were always very fragile under the sun, and they had to hide in the shadows during the day. So for experienced monks, catching ghosts is really not much different from catching eels in a cave and digging out old turtles.

Huang Chang bent over, lowered his head, and searched all the way in the direction where the ghosts came from last night, he didn't have much time - when the sun really rose, the sunlight would disperse all the remnants of yin qi, and there would be no trace of the remnants. Therefore, Huang Chang's pace was a little hurried, and his attention was mainly focused on looking for those fainter and fading traces...... After searching like this for a while, when he passed by a dark bush, he suddenly heard a loud whistling sound in his ears, Huang Chang raised his head, but saw a few faint phosphorescences, conjuring up terrifying faces, with a bloody mouth, and was biting at him violently!

Those geists really came to attack, but Huang Chang was very calm, he didn't even do any defensive or dodging moves, and let those geists pounce directly on him. And then...... I heard a few explosions of "pop papa", and every wandering soul pounced up, and was sent out by a blue light bullet that flashed out of Huang Chang's chest, and he couldn't help him at all.

――Of course, I can't help it, don't forget that Huang Chang has a nameplate of a disciple of West Kunlun on his body. Back then, even a temporary wooden plaque could ward off all evils, not to mention the jade plaque worn by the official disciple - this thing had the quality of a magic weapon, especially in terms of warding off evil spirits and protecting against spells. Ordinary ghosts hurt people in just possession, manipulation, confusion of the mind, absorption of yang energy, and other aspects, and these methods are completely useless in front of the disciples of Xi Kunlun - as long as they carry this nameplate with them. That's why Huang Chang dared to follow those wandering spirits to find their nests, like pulling behind a wolf's ass to dig out its cubs—he wouldn't have dared to do that if he hadn't been fully confident.

Those spirits obviously didn't have much wisdom, and they had no effect when they pounced on them, but they still had to keep killing one after another, until there was a faint cry of birds and chickens in the distance, and a ray of sunlight passed through the forest and reflected on this dark land, and those few spirits screamed in horror, and disappeared between the stone crevices and grass.

Huang Chang had been standing there since just now, ignoring the constant attacks of these geismas—these ghosts did not use any means or spells, they simply relied on the instinct of the demon spirit body to absorb the yang energy of living creatures to attack, just like a beast only knows how to use minions, unlike humans who use tools. For an attack of this level, even if it was a thousand more times, the jade plate on Huang Chang's body that had reached the quality of a magic weapon could easily be blocked. So he wasn't worried at all, but carefully observed the movements and habits of these geyers with great interest:

"It's very fierce, but it doesn't know how to change it...... only blindly bites, and the image that changes is mostly based on the mouth and long teeth...... Could it be that it is not the soul of a man, but the embodiment of a beast?"

Generally speaking, most of the people who can turn into ghosts are humans, because only human thoughts and emotions are strong enough, and after death, they are often unwilling to disappear between heaven and earth.

Beasts, on the other hand, have a much simpler mind, and life for them is nothing more than foraging, sleeping, and playing...... After living this life in a daze, death is death. The vast majority of beasts do not have the concept of "who I am" in their lifetime, and without self-consciousness, the soul cannot exist independently from the body, and it is impossible to form ghosts.

Only a very small number of animals that have opened their minds and become spirits, or at least monsters, will think like humans, and if they are extremely unwilling after death, they may also leave their souls behind and form a genus of ghosts.

And after realizing that the other party might be a nest of beast spirits and ghosts, Huang Chang was even more determined to capture them - as a human monk, if he used human ghosts to study, even if it was a lonely soul and a wild ghost, it would be a little "inappropriate" after all, which made people feel uncomfortable.
