The Soul Ghost Lingers!
It’s Hard to Speak When Meeting Old Friends Again_2 Observing the robes and attire, there were cultivators from the Five Elements Escape Sect among them, while the opposing side appeared to be cultivators from the North Spirit Sect and the Five Elements Sword Sect.
…
“I didn’t expect that just sixty days have passed, and our battle line has already advanced to here.
...
It seems that reclaiming the entire Eastern Region is not far away.”
Qiao Zhaoxian’s Divine Sense had also observed the battle situation, and with a casual grab, the Heavenly Dao Halberd materialized and emerged in his palm, ready for combat.
“Hmm?”
Chen Dengming’s expression suddenly changed, and a smile appeared on his lips.
He said, “Old Qiao, this time we’ve come across some old acquaintances.”
“Oh?” Qiao Zhaoxian’s eyebrows raised, “Who is it?”
“Take a closer look, and you’ll know.”
Qiao Zhaoxian’s Divine Sense swept across carefully, then suddenly burst out laughing.
“So it’s him!”
He suddenly exerted strength in his palm, and in an instant, he hurled the Heavenly Dao Halberd in his hands.
Boom—
The halberd was like a fierce black lightning bolt, tearing through the clouds in an instant, its blade creating a high-speed friction with the air, whistling as it broke through the sky, traversing dozens of miles in a flash, with Qiao Zhaoxian’s figure closely following behind.
Chen Dengming, unhurried, took out the Soul Attracting Banner and, with a sudden shake, summoned the Ghost man Zhu Xun.
“Zi!—”
The Ghost man Zhu Xun crawled out from the banner in an instant, issuing a sound that seemed ferocious yet was actually quite comical, like a dog’s bark.
But he was seen to be tall and burly, his massive stature nearly ten feet in height, his body wrapped in pitch-black Yin Thunder snaking around like serpents, emitting an asphyxiating bizarre and ferocious aura.
His face was covered with fierce features, menacing in appearance, his hands like iron clamps emerging from the banner as the temperature around seemed to drop to a chilly cold.
However, as he turned his head to see Chen Dengming beside him, he looked as if he had found his provider of clothing and food, and the ferocity in his eyes diminished considerably, revealing a glimpse of familiar and special intelligence as he awkwardly articulated speaking with difficulty.
“Bro…
Chen, Dao, bro…”
Hearing this long-missed address, a hint of a smile appeared in Chen Dengming’s eyes, and he nodded, saying, “Old Zhu!”
This brother inside the banner had previously ingested a portion of the Nascent Soul Divine Spirit’s power and had also practiced the “Dark Thunder Ferocious Ghost Dao.”
Although he had not continued to break through to the complete stage of the Golden Core, his cultivation level remained at the late-stage Golden Core; he had, however, successfully transformed into a Dark Thunder Ferocious Ghost, significantly enhancing his combat power.
At this moment, Chen Dengming summoned him not just to let him participate in the battle to test his strength, but also since it was a return to the familiar grounds of Wind Matter Square, he wanted to take this opportunity to allow Zhu Xun to recover more memories and intelligence.
When he chose to bring this brother in the banner, he was unwilling to let him be reduced to a low-level Shadow Ghost in a daze, but hoped that one day he would regain some memory and intelligence.
Now, having come this far, he himself had grown.
This brother in the banner had finally started gradually recovering the memories of the past with the increase in his strength, not belittling his adherence to the initial sincerity of the old days.
Under Chen Dengming’s command, the Ghost man Zhu Xun moved with astonishing Escape Speed, transforming into a black Yin Thunder and dashing to the distant battlefield in an instant.
The Escape Speed of Ghost Creatures was inherently incredibly fast; after the Ghost man Zhu Xun practiced the “Dark Thunder Ferocious Ghost Dao” and grasped the Yin Ghost Thunder Escape, his Escape Speed surged even more.
Chen Dengming followed leisurely behind in his Giant Deer robe and pants, his large sleeves fluttering, responsible for the rear.
With the likes of Old Qiao, a Golden Core Complete Daoist, and Zhu Xun, a Golden Core late-stage Dark Thunder Ghost General, even ordinary Nascent Soul early-stage cultivators would not require his intervention to hold off for a while.
Now that he had also become a Nascent Soul True Monarch, he chose to remain low-profile in daily life, refraining from taking action when unnecessary, preferring to ponder more on how to face the impending tribulation.
At this moment, from within the Soul House, the Mini Array Spirit seemed to sense his thoughts and reminded him in a voice, “Dao, Daoist friend, you have now left the Heaven Destiny Hall and made your presence known in the Mortal World.
By all accounts, you have revealed your Yang Energy, and due to killing the Qianluo Ghost King, you have been tainted with Ghost gas and resentment.”
“If there are Ghost Creatures from the Nether Spring tracking you, they just need to perform a skill called ‘Undying Soul Ghost,’ and they can immediately lock onto your whereabouts through the Qianluo Ghost King’s resentment…”
“Oh?” Chen Dengming was startled for a moment before nodding slightly, contemplating, “So you’re saying that I could currently be located by those two Ghost Creatures?
Is there a way for you to eliminate the resentment from the Qianluo Ghost King’s death?”
The Mini Array Spirit stuttered, “If, if I had already formed the Ghost Infant, I could help you eliminate it, but as it stands, my Ghost Infant is still in a gestation period and unable to do so.”
“It seems this is also destiny,” Chen Dengming nodded, his gaze towards the front, his white temples fluttering in the wind as he lightly said, “If it cannot be eliminated, so be it.
I have undergone the blessing baptism, yet still cannot wash away this layer of resentment.

It appears to be the tribulation destined for me, and even if I deliberately avoid it, it’s inescapable.”
Having initially tapped into the understanding of Heavenly Destiny and Heavenly blessings, although he had not yet grasped the celestial Divine Skills of these two paths nor comprehended what abilities they entailed, Chen Dengming had gained a new appreciation of destiny and the source of blessings.
Corresponding to the source of blessings comes tribulations; between them lies a relationship of cause and effect.
For instance, he obtained the finished Spiritual Root of the Ghost King of the Netherworld, which is a source of blessing.
It is a tremendous source of blessings recognized even by the Heaven Blessings Hall, altering his own Spiritual Root aptitude.
Blessing indeed lays the foundation for misfortune, and corresponding to this source of blessing is the tribulation in the form of the Ghost King of the Netherworld.
Whether it’s the Qianluo Ghost King or the two Ghost Brides sent after him, they’re merely parts of the tribulation.
Whether he vanquishes the Qianluo Ghost King, the two Ghost Brides, or evades them both, without resolving the trouble with the Ghost King of the Netherworld, the tribulation cannot be considered overcome.
