After taking a deep breath, Banana-kun slowly placed his right hand on You Ci's head.
The weather tonight was very clear.
The moon hung high in the sky, casting its gentle and bright radiance.
Banana-kun's body began to move gently with the moonlight.
You Ci's body seemed to undergo some unknown change, stubbornly resisting collapse.
Fifteen minutes later.
Banana-kun stopped dancing and looked nervously at You Ci on the ground.
At this moment, You Ci was radiating golden Buddhist light, and faint chanting sounds could be heard all around.
A golden phantom of a Buddha began to slowly coalesce behind him.
"So... so powerful!" Shan Ji was shocked. "Brother Jiao... is this considered successful?"
"Once the Buddha phantom behind him fully condenses, it will be considered a success!" Banana-kun replied excitedly, wiping the sweat from his brow.
Having converted hundreds of people in one go earlier was quite a burden for him.
Fortunately, these ghost cultivators were all a bit weak in cultivation.
If it were someone of the late sect leader's realm, he would have collapsed long ago.
"Master!" You Ci suddenly opened his eyes, his face filled with excitement. "I've attained enlightenment! I've attained enlightenment!"
An unexpected turn of events!
The Buddha phantom behind him suddenly began to collapse!
You Ci's body was collapsing along with it!
Everything happened so fast that Banana-kun and Shan Ji had no time to react at all!
In just a moment, You Ci turned into fragments on the ground...
"Whoosh..."
A gust of wind blew by, and the fragments on the ground completely dissipated...
"In the end... it still failed..." Banana-kun's expression was clearly dejected. "It seems my cultivation is still insufficient..."
"Brother Jiao, don't be discouraged," Shan Ji said softly, "At least this was the closest you've ever been to success. I think you're not far from achieving it now!"
"If I could have consolidated it, perhaps it would have truly succeeded..." Banana-kun sighed. "It's a shame all these ghost cultivators are dead. There's no way to try again..."
Banana-kun felt incredibly sad.
He was so close to succeeding...
If he had just one more person now... even the most ordinary ghost cultivator like this, he felt he could succeed.
But there were no ifs.
There wasn't a single one left, and he couldn't just grab someone to experiment with.
If he did, what would be the difference between him and those wicked individuals?
"My disciples!" a startled cry suddenly came.
The two demons turned to look and saw Ye Fan and the others walking towards them.
Seeing the bizarre scene before him, Ye Fan couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Damn it!
I knew you guys would stir up trouble, but I never expected you to go this far!
This is practically annihilation!
Ye Fan felt that if this continued, the two demons might become the biggest cult leaders in Ge City.
"Big Brother, Big Sister-in-Law," Shan Ji quickly said, "How was it? Did you find anything?"
"We found something," Ye Fan nodded.
"Not bad," Little Demoness chuckled and casually tossed a spatial ring to Shan Ji. "Here, I got you some pocket money."
"I knew Big Sister-in-Law treated me the best!" Shan Ji eagerly accepted the ring.
After probing it with his mental power, Shan Ji became even more excited!
Money!
So much money!
If he sold this, it would be enough for him to indulge in... cultivate for a very, very long time!
"Big Sister-in-Law, I love you to death!" Shan Ji immediately lunged towards the Little Demoness.
"Bang!"
Little Demoness's foot made intimate contact with Shan Ji's face, successfully sending him back to Banana-kun's side.
"Alright, stop messing around," Ye Fan said. "There's nothing more here. We should go back."
"Dead... all dead..." True Sect Leader was so sad he almost cried.
He had been quietly developing himself, and after finally cultivating a group of disciples, they were all gone like this...
Ancestor, your unworthy descendant has failed you...
Despite his immense sorrow, he dared not show any of it.
If he somehow angered those big shots, he would be finished too.
His movement successfully attracted Banana-kun's attention.
What do I see?
A ghost cultivator!
A living ghost cultivator!
A ghost cultivator filled with evil, waiting to be converted!
As if sensing something, True Sect Leader's gaze met Banana-kun's.
Their eyes locked...
For some reason, True Sect Leader shivered inexplicably...
However, upon seeing Banana-kun's harmless appearance, True Sect Leader felt he might be overthinking things.
Although Banana-kun's current attire, with his "brotherly" pants, was a bit of an eyesore, personal fashion choices were up to the individual.
Putting that aside, the person before him certainly didn't look like a bad guy.
At most, a weirdo.
"Big Brother, Big Sister-in-Law," Banana-kun pointed at True Sect Leader and asked, "What are you planning to do with him?"
"Dispose of him?" Ye Fan was clearly taken aback.
All along, he had been focused on finding clues and hadn't even considered this issue.
While ghost cultivators might have a bad reputation in the eyes of the world, Ye Fan wasn't exactly a saint.
Calling them ordinary people would be an exaggeration.
Ye Fan's qualities could be described by the following words.
Despicable and cunning, shameless and vulgar.
And so on and so forth.
It wasn't that Ye Fan was inherently like this, but rather a result of long-term adaptation to his environment.
Whether it was Xuanhuan cultivation or magical fantasy,
Regardless of the world he had transmigrated to before, it was an environment where might made right.
Being a gentleman was not necessarily bad, but it was difficult to survive long-term.
The former Ye Fan was very protective of his life, so he gradually inherited these 'fine qualities'.
He would borrow a knife to kill rather than act himself, and he would sneak attack rather than fight openly.
All of this was simply for the sake of survival.
Right and wrong were things that only those who survived had the right to discuss.
Therefore, he had come here this time with no intention of eradicating the ghost cultivator to bring justice to the common people, and naturally, he hadn't thought about how to deal with them.
Instead, Banana-kun, this oddball, had acted like a butcher with a heart full of justice.
"I hadn't considered this problem," Ye Fan replied truthfully. "Why, do you have any ideas?"
"If Big Brother doesn't want him, could you give him to me?" Banana-kun said excitedly. "I think I'm almost there, he's the last one I need."
"You're talking about your... conversion method?" Ye Fan finally understood what was going on.
"Yes!" Banana-kun nodded heavily.
"If Big Brother is interested, you can stay and witness this moment!" Banana-kun suggested.
"Absolutely not necessary!"
"You guys play around slowly. We'll head home and wait for you!"
Ye Fan and Little Demoness spoke in unison, then quickly fled on their flying bed as if escaping!
Joking aside!
Who would want to watch that eye-searing scene!
Another glance might make them unable to eat for days to come!
Specks of fluorescent light emerged from the plaza, chasing after Ye Fan in the air.
