Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

The long sword and the evil ghost's fist collided with each other, making a deafening sound.

Yang Ling was shocked and retreated repeatedly, while the evil ghost quickly retreated after a successful attack.

While avoiding Yang Ling's pursuit, the evil ghost kept roaring, his eyes as red as a ferocious beast.

Then, the evil ghost inserted his hand into his chest and took out a black steel fork.

It raised the steel fork high and chopped at the crowd fiercely.

"Hide!"

Yang Ling was shocked and reminded him quickly.

However, the speed of the steel fork was too fast and it was impossible to resist.

Yang Ling's shoulder was pierced instantly and blood gushed out.

At the moment when Yang Ling was distracted by his injury, the evil ghost suddenly leaped up and grabbed his neck tightly.

The evil ghost began to tear hard, trying to strangle Yang Ling to death.

But would Yang Ling surrender so easily?
He gritted his teeth, raised his right leg, and pressed his knee hard into the devil's belly.

"Oh!"

The powerful force kicked the evil ghost to the ground.

Yang Ling took the opportunity to rush forward, forming his left hand into a claw and pressing hard on the evil ghost's head.

"Ouch!"

As the evil ghost screamed, its head was twisted off by Yang Ling.

After getting rid of the evil ghost, Yang Ling turned to look at the man in black robe who was spitting black blood due to the backlash.

The black-robed man looked at Yang Ling, a ferocious look flashing in his eyes.

He originally thought that Yang Ling and the others were weak and could become his prey.

But he didn't expect that he would be beaten so badly.

He gritted his teeth secretly and took out a black jade pendant.

After squeezing out a drop of blood and dripping it on the jade pendant, he threw it on the ground and turned into black smoke and disappeared.

Yang Ling was about to give chase, but he saw the black jade pendant on the ground suddenly crack.

A black smoke slowly rose and eventually condensed into a new evil ghost.

This evil ghost is different from others. It has four heads and eight hands.

Moreover, it held a weapon in each hand.

The head in front opened its eyes and stared at Yang Ling.

Then, the four heads opened their bloody mouths at the same time and let out a deafening roar.

"Roar!"

In an instant, there was a roar of wind and thunder, and waves of sound were rolling.

Yang Ling's ears were buzzing.

He knew that he had encountered a powerful enemy.

Without any hesitation, Yang Ling rushed towards the evil ghost with a sword in hand, intending to chop off its head first.

However, when Yang Ling approached, a mirror in the evil ghost's hand suddenly emitted a bright light.

Yang Ling closed his eyes because of the bright light.

Although he lost his vision, Yang Ling still had his spiritual sense to perceive his surroundings.

He flipped his wrist and swung the sword out, cutting through the void.

The long sword fell straight to where the evil ghost was with a sharp whistle.

"clang!"

The long knife in the evil ghost's hand collided with Yang Ling's long sword, making a sound of metal colliding with stone.

This attack made Yang Ling's palm numb and he could hardly hold the sword in his hand.

"Roar!"

The evil ghost was also forced to retreat, and his body leaned back seven or eight meters before he could stabilize himself.

It looked at Yang Ling with eyes full of surprise.

However, this did not hold it back.

It pounced on Yang Ling again, without any fear.

But this time Yang Ling was prepared.

He swayed his body and easily avoided the evil ghost's attack.

Then, his eyes flashed and a flying knife flew out of his hand.

"Whoosh!"

The flying knife shot towards the evil ghost like lightning and pierced directly into the forehead of its head.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Ling shot out another flying knife.

The flying knife broke through the air and instantly pierced the evil ghost's throat.

This caused the evil ghost to pause slightly.

But in just a moment, the evil ghost reached out and grabbed the dagger at his neck and pulled it out with force.

Seeing that the evil ghost did not seem to have suffered any fatal injuries, Yang Ling and others could not help but frown.

This evil ghost is indeed difficult to deal with. No wonder the man in black robe chose to escape.

At this moment, the evil ghost rushed towards Yang Ling with a weapon and roar.

Seeing this scene, Yang Ling frowned slightly.

He knew that the battle had to be ended as soon as possible, otherwise he might end up in a protracted and bitter struggle.

Thinking of this, Yang Ling drew the sword from his waist without hesitation and stepped forward to meet him.

“Ding, ding…”

A series of sparks flashed in the sky.

Yang Ling's sword chopped on the evil ghost, finally causing it some damage.

Seeing the evil ghost injured, Yang Ling immediately took advantage of the situation and pursued him.

He quickly stepped forward and slashed the evil ghost's left cheek with his sword.

The powerful force caused the evil spirit to retreat several meters.

Then, Yang Ling swung his sword again without giving the opponent a chance to breathe.

The sharp sword pierced the evil ghost's back like lightning.

In the blink of an eye, the evil ghost's body was covered with scars.

Yang Ling knew that such attacks could not be stopped, otherwise once the evil ghost reacted, he would be in danger.

So he accelerated his offensive.

However, at this moment, the evil ghost suddenly roared to the sky.

The evil energy around it quickly gathered towards it.

After a while, all the scars on the evil ghost's body disappeared.

What was even more shocking was that the number of evil spirits increased from one to four.

Such changes made Yang Ling feel even more difficult.

Although the situation became complicated, Yang Ling had no intention of backing down.

He took out the talisman again, lit it and sprinkled it at the evil spirits.

However, these evil spirits actually formed a Four Symbols Formation.

This surprised Yang Ling.

Not only that, the power between them can also be transmitted to each other.

This kind of evil ghost who is good at combined attack and knows how to use formations is rarely seen in a hundred years.

Yang Ling couldn't help but guess that this evil ghost might have been a cultivator when he was alive.

After his accidental death, he was invaded by evil spirit and reborn.

Finally, by chance, he was captured by the evil cultivator in black robe.

Just as Yang Ling was thinking, the evil ghost pounced on him again.

This time, Yang Ling did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

He took the Phantom Dragon Step and retreated rapidly.

However, the evil spirit did not seem to give up.

Accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, four evil ghosts approached Yang Ling with murderous aura.

Obviously, they intended to trap Yang Ling in the Four Symbols Formation.

Faced with such a situation, Yang Ling couldn't help but feel difficult.

"Humph, you want to surround me? That's not that easy!"

Yang Ling snorted coldly and flicked his fingers.

Four pieces of talisman paper flew out.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by deafening thunder and violent explosions, endless black smoke drifted out from the evil ghost.

Yang Ling took the opportunity to rush out.

He swung his right arm violently, and the long sword came out of the sheath in an instant, making a clear "swish" sound.

The long sword leaped out of the water like a dragon, flashing a dazzling light, and then stabbed at one of the evil spirits like lightning.

Although the evil ghost was quite powerful, it was also frightened by Yang Ling's sudden attack.

Just when it thought it was about to be killed by the sword, it finally came to its senses.

The evil ghost flashed and used the art of shape-shifting to successfully avoid Yang Ling's fatal blow.

However, this avoidance caused a flaw in the Four Symbols Formation formed by the four ghosts.

Yang Ling was quick-witted and quick-handed, and immediately launched a fierce attack against this flaw.

In this way, Yang Ling successfully cracked the evil spirits' Four Symbols Formation.

After breaking the formation, Yang Ling did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

He turned around quickly and shouted to the people behind him: "Hurry up and help me eliminate these evil spirits!"

Upon hearing this, everyone came to their senses and quickly showed their weapons.

The Yin siblings took the lead, and their attacks first fell on the evil ghosts.

Immediately afterwards, the attack of the Jade Jue Spirit also came like a shadow.

The evil ghosts whose Four Symbols Formation was broken were suddenly besieged by the crowd and were caught off guard for a moment.

As a result, the evil spirits were injured one after another, and their injuries were quite serious.

Under the attack of the crowd, the bodies of the evil spirits gradually turned black, as if they were burnt.

At the same time, Yang Ling's expression became solemn.

He quickly took out the talisman paper and formed seals with his hands, preparing for the next battle.

The evil spirits roared and growled, brandishing their weapons and attacking everyone desperately.

They have lost their minds at this moment and only know how to attack frantically.

"Bang..." Yang Ling didn't dare to confront the evil ghosts head-on. He dodged the attacks of the two evil ghosts by leaning sideways. At the same time, he raised his left hand, summoned a fireball, and threw it at one of the evil ghosts.

In an instant, the evil ghost hit by the fireball was surrounded by raging flames and let out a shrill scream.

However, Yang Ling did not let down his guard, because he knew that this was just the beginning of the battle.

Then he summoned three fireballs in succession and threw them at the other three evil spirits.

"Puff! Puff!" Three balls of flame instantly enveloped the other three evil spirits.

Soon after, all the evil spirits were burned to charcoal by Yang Ling's flames and fell to the ground one after another.

In this battle, Yang Ling won.

But the good times did not last long. He soon discovered that the evil spirits that he thought had dissipated were actually gathering together again with the help of the evil energy around them.

Their strength was not damaged and they would recover in just a moment.

Seeing this scene, Yang Ling narrowed his eyes slightly and thought to himself that something was wrong.

At this moment, the evil spirits that had been killed had re-condensed into shape, but the color was slightly dim.

Yang Ling watched these regrouped evil spirits vigilantly, not daring to relax at all.

The evil ghosts surrounded Yang Ling again, and all kinds of hideous ghost screams were heard, which made Yang Ling frown.

He never expected that he would end up in such a dangerous situation.

Just as Yang Ling was surprised, the evil spirits attacked again, not giving him any chance to breathe.

Although their strength was greatly reduced, they were good at combined attacks and formations, and they rushed forward in a swarm, forcing Yang Ling to temporarily avoid them.

"Bang..." An evil ghost took advantage of Yang Ling's fending off the attacks of other evil ghosts and punched him hard in the chest.

Instantly, a sharp pain spread throughout his body, and Yang Ling felt as if his internal organs had shifted.

At the same time, other evil spirits continued to besiege him, leaving him no chance to breathe.

If Yang Ling's body had not been strong enough, he would have died long ago.

But even so, he gradually couldn't hold on any longer, and was finally kicked to the ground by a weaker evil ghost.

At this time, the Yin siblings were also entangled by the evil spirit and could not come to the rescue in time.

Faced with such a dilemma, Yang Ling made a quick decision. …

He released his mental power and quickly set up several illusion arrays to confuse the evil spirits.

After doing all this, Yang Ling slowly stood up, ready to start the final battle with the evil ghost.

He gripped the sword again, and the internal energy began to circulate rapidly.

After the long sword was infused with true energy, it soon burst into a dazzling light.

After taking a deep breath, Yang Ling gripped the sword tightly and slashed at the evil ghost that was temporarily trapped by the illusion array.

When the evil spirits saw Yang Ling taking the initiative to attack, greedy and fierce light flashed in their eyes, and they rushed straight towards him without paying attention to the restrictions of the formation.

"Bang..." A cold light flashed, and the long sword drew a dazzling arc, accurately chopping the neck of an evil ghost.

However, to Yang Ling's surprise, the evil ghost did not fall down, but only a crack appeared on its neck.

"Crack..." With a crisp sound, the evil ghost's head rolled to the ground.

But what shocked Yang Ling was that after the evil ghost's head fell off, a new head actually grew out of it.

This scene was beyond Yang Ling's imagination.

He had never seen such a difficult evil spirit. Even a cultivator in the Jindan stage would have a headache if he encountered one, right?
I had just cut off the evil ghost's neck, how could it be resurrected?

Thinking of this, beads of sweat could not help but appear on Yang Ling's forehead.

And the evil spirits that besieged him rushed towards him again with hideous smiles.

Just as they were about to approach, a cold light suddenly burst out.

"Swish!" Dozens of small Qi swords suddenly appeared around Yang Ling, each emitting a cold light.

Yang Ling waved his arm, and dozens of small Qi swords whizzed towards the evil spirits.

In an instant, the evil spirits were blocked by the Qi sword.

"Puchi! Puchi!" As waves of wailing sounded, the bodies of the evil ghosts were pierced by the small swords of true energy.

In the blink of an eye, the evil spirits turned into dark green stars and dissipated into the air.

Seeing this scene, Yang Ling hurried to the place where the black-robed man threw the black jade pendant, picked up the black jade pendant that was broken into two pieces on the ground, and began to repair it quickly.

While Yang Ling was racing against time to repair the jade pendant, the evil spirits once again began to recover by relying on the evil energy.

However, just as they were about to be repaired, the jade pendant in Yang Ling's hand suddenly emitted a dazzling red light.

Holding the repaired black jade pendant in his hand, Yang Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he forced out a small drop of blood from his heart and dripped it onto the jade pendant.

As the blood from their hearts dripped, the movements of those evil spirits began to become stiff.

Seeing this, Yang Ling once again condensed new Qi swords and controlled them to fly towards the evil spirits.

However, this time, the small sword of true energy hit the evil ghost, but it did not produce any substantial effect except for causing ripples.

Seeing this scene, Yang Ling stretched out his right hand, and palm thunder condensed out of thin air.

"Swoosh..." The next moment, he suddenly clapped his hands, and the thunder left a trail in the air.

When the evil spirits who were trying to repair their injuries reacted, the thunder had already arrived in front of them.

"Boom!" The evil spirits were scattered again, and this time Yang Ling began to use the black jade pendant to absorb the evil energy around him.

As the evil energy was absorbed by the jade pendant, the evil spirits were eventually trapped back inside the jade pendant.

After doing all this, Yang Ling sat down on the ground exhausted, his eyes full of fatigue.

Seeing this, Jin Yuanguo turned away very considerately, and soon returned with several fruits. (End of this chapter)
