Old Mo was full of fighting spirit, as if he had been injected with adrenaline.
The pain from being knocked down by the female ghost had been cast aside.
The female ghost that had been sent flying had already gotten back up, her entire red-skinned face contorted to the extreme.
Those blank white eyes fixed on all of us with venomous hatred.
"Die, all of you deserve to die, all of you deserve to die..."
The female ghost's voice trembled as she spoke in anger.
Dark energy permeated her body, and yin energy surged outwards with a whooshing sound.
We felt waves of chilling wind ripple towards us.
Immediately after, the female ghost let out a roar to the heavens:
"Ah..."
The sound was piercing.
The sound waves rolled, echoing throughout the second factory.
The surrounding plants and trees were shaken, rustling and swaying...
The flames that had extinguished on the female ghost's body roared back to life with a bang.
This time, even the blank white eyes of the female ghost spewed flames.
Her entire being was contorted to the extreme.
Her mouth was filled with sharp teeth, and a long red tongue flickered with flames.
The waves of surging yin energy grew stronger and stronger with each pulse.
With the Yin-Yang Pearl protecting me, I didn't feel much oppressive pressure.
However, I could still sense the terrifyingly powerful yin energy and the scorching heatwave.
This female ghost was definitely a peak existence among the Red-Clothed level vengeful spirits.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be this formidable.
Old Mo and Xiao Mei beside me, under this immense pressure,
felt their heartbeats accelerate, their bodies trembling with fear...
"Damn, such strong malevolent energy!"
Old Mo exclaimed, involuntarily swallowing.
His earlier fervor was instantly doused by a bucket of cold water.
Under such an aura, his meager cultivation was simply inadequate.
Xiao Mei also frowned:
"She seems to have gotten stronger again!"
I also frowned.
This female ghost was indeed as my Uncle-Master had said, not easy to deal with.
She had been suppressed to this extent.
And she was still this strong after absorbing so much yin energy with the Seven Star Array Flags.
No wonder my Master had paid the price of severe injury and greatly reduced cultivation to seal her back then.
Uncle-Master, with a grim expression, raised the white fire-controlling fan high again.
He fanned towards the female ghost once more:
"Extinguish!"
With a low growl, the white fan surface glowed with circulating talismans.
With a "whoosh," a wave of formidable energy surged out, heading towards the red-skinned fire ghost.
However, the female ghost didn't even flinch this time.
She simply opened her mouth wide, revealing her sharp teeth and long tongue, letting the fierce wind wash over her...
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
As the fierce wind passed, the flames on the female ghost flickered with a rustling sound.
Dry leaves and dust in the surroundings were swept up by the wind, flying everywhere.
But the red-skinned female ghost standing in the midst of it all, her flames remained unextinguished.
On the contrary, after fanning, Uncle-Master coughed a couple of times...
"Ah! The flames won't go out."
My heart leaped, sensing a bad omen.
"Holy crap, is this fire ghost that monstrous?"
Old Mo and I exclaimed in unison.
Uncle-Master, a distance away, took a couple of breaths and revealed a look of astonishment and solemnity.
But after the fierce wind passed, the red-skinned female ghost spoke in a hoarse, sinister voice:
"Stinking Taoist, you have thoroughly angered me.
Now, it is the death knell for all of you!"
She emphasized the last two words.
As soon as she finished speaking, the female ghost shot forward with a "swoosh," directly towards Uncle-Master.
Uncle-Master suppressed a cough, blood at the corner of his mouth.
Holding the fire-controlling fan, he fanned at the female ghost again:
"Extinguish!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
This time, the fierce wind was even stronger.
It stirred up sand and flying stones, yet it was still difficult to resist the female ghost.
"Master, be careful!"
Old Mo cried out.
But we were positioned within the array and dared not move rashly.
Rushing out to help would only be feeding ourselves to the female ghost.
Seeing this, I quickly formed a hand seal.
I shouted loudly:
"Heaven and Earth Without Limit, Heaven and Earth Borrow Power, Decree!"
In an instant.
The two peach wood swords beside me flew out with a "swoosh, swoosh," heading straight for the female ghost.
Although I knew the effect might not be significant,
and it was even more difficult to injure this female ghost with the "Decree" technique of sword control,
any relief I could provide to Uncle-Master at this moment would be beneficial.
The female ghost moved at an extremely high speed, pushing through the fierce wind from the fire-controlling fan.
Facing Uncle-Master, she slapped out with one claw:
"Die, stinking Taoist!"
This strike was imbued with intense flames.
With a "buzz," it descended from the sky.
It was like a ball of celestial fire hitting the ground.
Uncle-Master was greatly alarmed, forming a hand seal with one hand while using the fire-controlling fan to block.
A protective array shield appeared in front of Uncle-Master.
However, upon encountering the ball of flames, that array shield instantly shattered.
The flames "whoosh whoosh whoosh" fell onto the fire-controlling fan in Uncle-Master's hand.
They splashed outwards like waves.
The area within four to five meters was filled with dancing sparks.
Those dancing sparks instantly burned to ashes the three array runes Uncle-Master was guarding – Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang.
The three array flags that had been following the female ghost's flight, continuously absorbing her yin energy,
exploded with three "bang bang bang" sounds, falling to the ground.
And the female ghost, following the momentum, descended and slammed her claw onto the fire-controlling fan.
With a "bang" explosion.
The sound was deafening.
It was like setting off firecrackers.
The power of this strike was terrifying to behold.
And Uncle-Master could not withstand it.
He was directly forced to his knees by the female ghost's claw, spitting out a mouthful of blood...
