A Method to Deal with Erlang Shen

Chapter 227 A Method to Deal with Erlang Shen

The Netherworld Burns the World.

All the ghost kings gathered together.

They weren't idle during those ten days or so.

Instigated by the Five Plagues, the Eighth Route Army Ghost Commander has decided to eliminate Ao Peng, the source of this calamity.

Even the most vengeful spirits cannot attain sainthood. Even if a ghost general could gather a thousand miles of dark clouds to blot out the sun and allow countless ghosts to roam in broad daylight.

But that was, after all, a move against nature, and it would be counterproductive.

When Liu Yuanda, the Plague King, commanded ten thousand ghosts, Ao Peng only needed to cut through the dark clouds to use the power of the sun to eliminate the ghosts. There was no need for the two righteous gods, Shen Tu and Yu Lei, to appear. Instead, Liu Yuanda was forced to appear prematurely, losing the initiative and falling into the trap of Tao Du.

Therefore, since you ghost generals have decided to kill Ao Peng, you must have taken this into consideration.

By this time, they had learned that Ao Peng was in Qingcheng Cave Heaven. The ghosts also harbored deep resentment towards the Shu Mountain sword cultivators within the cave heaven, and this was a perfect opportunity to settle both old and new scores at once.

Therefore, they naturally want to choose the most advantageous time.

The Dujiangyan Water Opening Festival is a day of great prosperity for humanity, but it is also a time of great prosperity for the spirit world. At this time, which coincides with Qingming Festival, the gates of the underworld are wide open, and the rules of the netherworld are more likely to affect the mortal world than usual.

Naturally, this was also the day when the Ghost Kings chose to attack Qingcheng Cave and kill Ao Peng.

Of course, there is one small difficulty involved.

Within a thousand miles of Mount Qingcheng, if there is any true god who would intervene, it would be none other than Erlang Shen, the Manifestation Saint.

This person is in charge of subduing demons and monsters.

If they were to kill the cultivators of Qingcheng Cave Heaven, and this True Lord intervened, few of them would be able to stop him. Therefore, they needed to find a way to hold off Erlang Xiansheng True Lord.

On the Burning World Peak, the karmic fire burns endlessly. On thrones made of piled bones, numerous ghost kings gather, pouring their magical powers into them.

Amidst the ghost kings, a woman dressed in red appeared, writhing in agony, clutching her heart with both hands. The magical power of the numerous ghost kings poured into her body, greatly enhancing her supernatural abilities while simultaneously reminding her of the agony she felt at the moment of her death.

Despite the extreme pain, the woman's expression remained unchanged, her face as white as porcelain, with two dark moles under her eyes that resembled tears that would never fade.

After successfully refining the ghost, one of the ghost generals looked at the woman and asked, "Who are you?"

The woman replied expressionlessly, "My name is Cao Anshi."

The Ghost General asked again, "How did you die?"

Cao Anshi's calm face showed a slight change in expression. Her voice was plaintive, like the wind blowing through the wilderness in the dark, "My husband and son died while building the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. Their bodies could not even be found. I could not bear the blow and threw myself into the river to die."

Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, while those who build bridges and pave roads leave no trace of their bodies.

Even a project as beneficial to the people and of lasting significance as the Dujiangyan Irrigation System has countless corpses buried beneath its surface.

However, people at this time often remember the unparalleled achievements, but downplay the sacrifices of the countless ordinary people who made these achievements.

The Ghost General continued, "Would you rather see Li Bing and his son enjoying the offerings of the people in the temple, while your family doesn't even have a grave? Do you want to know where your husband's and child's remains are?"

Cao Anshi's expression was complex, but she finally sighed softly, "Of course I don't want to! Of course I also want to know!"

Her voice echoed with the howling wind, lingering for a long time.

The Ghost General laughed and said, "At this time, Li Bing and his son are going to expand their temple in the mortal world. When you go to their temple, you can ask them for the result."

Although Cao Anshi knew that the Ghost King in front of her was using her, the resentment and doubts that had accumulated in her heart for hundreds of years took over. She turned into a wisp of green smoke and entered the mortal world through the wide-open gates of hell.

After Cao Anshi left, Zhang Yuanbo, the Spring Plague Lord, clapped his hands and laughed, "The Witch Beast Ghost General's move was truly brilliant!"

The Autumn Plague Lord, the Winter Plague Lord, and the Middle Plague Lord all nodded in agreement, acknowledging that this was indeed a brilliant move.

Facing Erlang Shen, all their ghost kings and ghost generals combined wouldn't be enough to defeat him with one hand. However, they could prevent Erlang Shen from making a move at the source.

As long as they can hold off Erlang Shen for a while at the crucial moment, they can rest easy once their great cause is accomplished.

The Witch Beast Ghost General said hatefully, "Back then, Li Bing and his son ruled Shu and slaughtered my tribe's people. Today, he enjoys unparalleled blessings in the temple, but the debts from the past have not yet been repaid! One day, I will make him taste the bitterness of family destruction and death!"

This sorcerer ghost general led the sorcerer tribe of Shudu in his lifetime and refused to submit to the Qin Dynasty's rule. But what kind of dynasty was the Qin Dynasty?

Under heaven, all land belongs to the king; on the shores of the earth, all people are subjects of the king!

Since you don't want to be a subject, then you might as well be a dead man!

Many of the original Wu tribes were wiped out by Li Bing, and the Wu Beast Ghost General thus formed a deadly feud with Li Bing and his son. However, even though he had become a Ghost General, he could only spy on Li Bing and his son's temple from the shadows and dared not cross the line.

Therefore, over the years, the Witch Beast Ghost General has been secretly collecting ways to deal with Li Bing and his son. Today, taking advantage of the gathering of all the Ghost Kings to kill Ao Peng, the newly emerged General Wu Gong, the Witch Beast Ghost General naturally brought out the methods he had. Otherwise, even with Cao Anshi's methods, he wouldn't dare to use them on his own.

Now that all the ghosts have gathered, with his methods, even if they can't seriously injure Erlang Shen, they will at least make him look bad!

Although the plague gods were pleased that the witch beast ghost general had come up with a good idea, they wisely kept quiet when they heard that the other party wanted Erlang Shen's family to be destroyed.

The victor is king, the loser is villain. If you had that ability, you would be sitting in the Erlang Temple right now!

Such a useless person can't even understand the secrets of heaven, so all they can do is make use of their waste, take on more unresolved debts, and die a worthy death!

The words are divided into two parts.

Dragon Girl Ao Zhu first flew to the Taodu Mountain Temple, where she learned that Ao Peng had been invited by the Taoist of Qingcheng Mountain to go to Qingcheng Cave to seek opportunities. She was a little annoyed that she had made a wasted trip. Sure enough, there was a reason why her grandfather said that they would meet General Wu.

Before leaving, the dragon girl Ao Zhu casually asked Chi Bofu, who had now become the temple priest of the Martial Duke, "What are your general's hobbies?"

When asked by the Dragon Girl, Chi Bofu was stunned. After meeting Ao Peng, he realized that Ao Peng was a master strategist. Even without magic, Ao Peng was like a celestial being. He used the peaches in the divine painting to suppress all ghosts, planted incense and rice, and used the ghosts to cultivate terraced fields. Each of his deeds was almost selfless. In his mind, Ao Peng was like a saint, selfless and without any personal preferences.

After thinking for a while, Chi Bofu took the Dragon Girl to ask the village chief who had escaped with Ao Peng.

When the village chief saw Chi Bofu bringing a beautiful young girl who looked like a fairy to inquire about Ao Peng's preferences, he hesitated for a while before saying, "He doesn't have any particular preferences, but there is an urgent matter that he needs help with."

Dragon Girl Ao Zhu was overjoyed. "What is it?"

The village chief looked at Ao Zhu with satisfaction, "Settle down, start a family, and carry on the family line."
