Chapter 1299: Chapter 1303: Dark Elixir
However, if this Ghost Door Sect specifically recruits those who committed suicide after being rejected, then this place indeed proves to be Huangyu’s final destination. Coincidentally, I had adopted the identity of the Guardian King to visit relatives here, having previously managed to bluff my way through by remaining unruffled and deceiving the evil spirits, only to end up exposed by this person who knows my true identity!
As expected, after my identity was exposed by an outsider ghost, the atmosphere around Yin Spirit Son became bizarrely unsettling; Zhu Minglang felt as though he was standing beside a block of ice.
“You’re not Wei Zhen?” asked Yin Spirit Son coldly.
“I came in his stead to visit you all,” Zhu Minglang knew that there was no point in hiding it anymore; further explanations would only provoke them.
Soon, a chilling Yin Qi began to whirl through Purple Cypress Door, so sharp and clear beneath the glow of the blood moon that it seemed like thin, long strings, razor threads, blades…
And the disciples of Purple Cypress Door, be they fellow sect members, mentors, or elders, seemed to suddenly become alarmingly aware.
We have been deceived!
The visitor was not Wei Zhen at all!
The entire Ghost Door Sect, like bats waking up in a dark cave, had pairs of blood-red eyes now fixated on us menacingly.
What was once a peaceful Ghost Door Sect had in an instant turned into a valley of ferocious ghosts, descending upon Zhu Minglang, with their bodies shrouded in evil Qi transforming into swirling ghost clouds enveloping the domain where Zhu Minglang stood.
This was an entire sect of ghosts.
Some of these ghosts even achieved high cultivation bases due to the exceptionally accommodating environment, indicating from their ability to establish a sect and attract such specific evil spirits to join that the Ghost Door Sect was not as simple as one might have imagined.
Zhu Minglang’s scalp tingled with apprehension.
There must be something seriously wrong with Huangyu’s mind.
I saved his life out of kindness, and yet he ended up hanging himself.
That he hanged himself was bad enough, but what’s worse is that he lingered on and entangled his fate with mine here.
He truly is a harmful spirit!
“Give me back my identity!! Give me back my identity!!” Huangyu’s eyes turned an intense shade of red. Under the red moonlight, the muscles and bones in his body began to grow and mutate like a starving centipede crazily burrowing out of his flesh.
Half his elongated body outside, half anchored within his flesh, Huangyu transformed from a timid and incompetent cultivator disciple to a fierce demon in an instant.
He approached Zhu Minglang as if intending to strip away Zhu Minglang’s skin and wrap it around himself.
Jealousy, intense hatred, madness!
Zhu Minglang could even feel Huangyu’s power surge hundreds of times over in an instant, becoming a Monarch Level Ghost, and growing uncontrollably under the blood-red moon, with the world’s ghostly energy rushing toward Huangyu like a mighty river.
Watching the demonized Huangyu, Zhu Minglang couldn’t help but feel somewhat troubled.
Indeed, ghosts are the most cunning and troublesome entities in this world; their power often breaks the shackles of the cultivation system. Under certain specific factors and grudges, they can gain fearsome strength that threatens the people involved, and curses cast by them are abnormally tenacious.
After all, Zhu Minglang had raised a ghost himself.
So he was well aware that under the stimulation of resentment, a ghost actually absorbs the capacity of the person involved, like a parasite. If the parasite latches onto an animal, sucking its blood won’t make it much stronger, but if it attaches to a deity, that parasite could turn into a terrifying Evil Dragon.
Huangyu was originally just an ordinary Lonely Wild Ghost, but because his resentment stemmed from Zhu Minglang, who was akin to a deity, this caused Huangyu to grow in power, approaching the level where Zhu Minglang himself resided…
Zhu Minglang could also feel that his own Spiritual Energy was being absorbed by Huangyu.
Of course, that was not the key point; the key was the entire sinister Ghost Door Sect behind him, which was staring intently at him at this very moment. Zhu Minglang felt as though his body had been pierced thousands of times by those cold gazes!
“You’ve deceived us!”
“Wei Zhen deceived us, why did you also play along, deceiving us!!”
“What we hate the most is deception!!”

Yin Spirit Son made a deep sound, which was mixed with some suppressed roar as if there was an evil spirit inhabiting his body!
“Everyone, please calm down,” Zhu Minglang said to the ghosts who were beginning to rage.
“I demand justice. The Heavens have been so unfair to me, why did they make you a disciple of the Southern Heavenly Palace, while I turned into this?!” Huangyu walked towards Zhu Minglang.
“The Heavens have already favored you once. I listened to your bitter curse and even saved your life, but you persist in seeking death. Not even deities can save you, nor can the Heavens. People like you, Huangyu, are better off curled up in the womb, where you won’t face any setbacks or adversities in your mother’s belly. Even if you were lucky enough to become a disciple of the Southern Heavenly Palace, just one small failure and setback would lead you to jump into the sea or throw yourself into a lake. The person you should resent is yourself, for being so cowardly and laughable!” Zhu Minglang stood there, having lost all patience with the evil spirit Huangyu.
“You… Don’t spout nonsense, do you have any idea how much I’ve struggled to get into the Southern Heavenly Palace!” Upon hearing Zhu Minglang’s words, the Evil Qi around Huangyu weakened significantly, and he could no longer draw energy from Zhu Minglang.
“If mere effort could make everything as one wishes, then everyone would be deities, everyone would be incomparable. Admitting that you are not an extraordinary person is not such a difficult thing. If you fail this year, continue again next year. The world is full of people who are toiling and enduring hardships. Which cultivator isn’t climbing against the odds? But those who are unyielding are truly precious. The Heavens have already shown concern for you and even responded to you, yet you do not cherish it…” Zhu Minglang said.
Zhu Minglang spoke with righteous indignation, and his words evidently dealt a great blow to Huangyu. He could no longer absorb energy from Zhu Minglang, and even the energy from earlier dissipated from his body.
He was already cowardly, already inferior, already incompetent and fond of avoiding.
Seeing that the Power of Ghostly Resentment in Huangyu was weakened, Zhu Minglang immediately summoned the Chongwang Dragon.
The Chongwang Dragon did not waste words, and immediately opened its mouth, biting towards the raging ghost.
With that bite, it devoured most of Huangyu’s Evil Qi. At the same time, the Chongwang Dragon’s Nether Wing suddenly opened wide, like a dominating Nether Emperor Flower, its tendrils wrapping around Huangyu tightly, and ferociously engulfing the remainder of him like a man-eating flower!
Huangyu didn’t even have time to react as he struggled in agony.
“If you have the notion to find a good Feng Shui spot to hang yourself, you better be like those Spirit Gatherers with their hands covered in mud, searching for your breakthrough. In your next life, don’t be a human; don’t cultivate anymore. It doesn’t suit you.” Zhu Minglang had no sympathy for Huangyu.
Fortuitously, the Chongwang Dragon was just missing a Soul Bead, and just now due to the grudge tied between him and Zhu Minglang, Huangyu instantly absorbed a large amount of Evil Qi under this blood-red moon.
And this Evil Qi, ultimately turned into a Dark Elixir that sated the Chongwang Dragon in one gulp!
After devouring Huangyu, this ghost on the brink of a nefarious transformation, the Chongwang Dragon’s body immediately emitted a dragonic light.
It was about to undergo a metamorphosis!
