Chapter 605 Scholar in Black
Something really happened in Yaoguang City. In the underground magic circle, Pu Yanlan discussed with a group of old ghosts and then they led the way to find the scholar in black. Pu Yanlan also turned into a ghost and mixed in with the old ghosts. Afterwards, the ghosts rushed behind the beast tide with great momentum. There indeed was a young scholar in black sitting there. He looked handsome. If it weren't for his pale face and too vicious eyes, if he changed his clothes and walked on the street, he would attract many girls to look at him sideways!
The black-clothed scholar looked coldly at the ghosts rushing towards him and snorted.
"You guys have the guts to come out?"

The white-haired old man in the lead floated forward a few steps and said to the black-clothed scholar,

"It seems... you are the mastermind behind this! Why did you plot against my Yaoguang City so deliberately? My Yaoguang City is located in a remote place and is not in conflict with the world. I have never met you before. Why did you kill so many beastmen and plot against my Yaoguang City!"

The black-robed scholar still sat there cross-legged without moving, but he looked up at the ghosts and smiled contemptuously,

"We have been in the Yin and Yang worlds for thousands of years, so there is no need to say such things. If you think that you can ruin my game by discovering the mastermind behind the scenes, then you are really wishful thinking!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and pointed at the chessboard in front of him and said proudly,
"This thing is called the Qiankun Plate, and it is an ancient relic. Any chess piece that is put into it cannot escape the fate of being manipulated by others. Now that you are all on this chessboard, even if you join forces to kill me, you cannot change your fate..."

After saying that, he pointed at a few white chess pieces, and then pointed at the black pieces on the other side. As soon as he finished speaking, the black-clothed scholar's eyes suddenly changed, and he saw that a chess piece on the chessboard suddenly moved slowly by one square, and then the nearby chess pieces also moved one square. When the two black pieces moved, the other white pieces also moved. Pu Yanlan was not good at chess, but as soon as she saw the black-clothed scholar's face, she knew that the situation had changed, and it changed to a side that was unfavorable to the enemy.

"What's going on? Did something change up there?"

She naturally didn't know that it was her best friend who went to disrupt the Liujia Beast Taming Formation above.

At this time, the black-clothed scholar's face became more and more gloomy. He didn't care about dealing with the ghosts in front of him, but thought for a moment and was about to reach out to move the chess piece. Pu Yanlan saw the clue and immediately shouted,

"Take action. Don't let him change the game!"

The ghosts woke up immediately and rushed towards the black-clothed scholar with sharp screams. The black-clothed scholar had no time to move the chess piece. His face changed, but he held the chessboard with both hands and flew back lightly. Seeing this, the white-haired old man shouted angrily and raised his hands high. A huge axe appeared in his hands. After turning it around in his hands for a few times, he threw it towards the black-clothed scholar with a strong gust of cold wind...

Upon seeing this, all the ghosts followed suit and threw out their weapons. All of a sudden, swords, spears, halberds, flowing stones and flying locusts all rushed towards the black-clothed scholar. In terms of realm, the black-clothed scholar was already in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and it wouldn't take much effort for him to kill this group of ghosts. However, he was in the Nine Returns Formation at this moment and did not dare to act rashly. He wanted to seize the Nine Returns Formation for great use, and he had taken great pains to plan for it for a long time. If he used too much force when killing these ghosts and accidentally destroyed the formation, then all his plans would be completely in vain. Therefore, now these ghosts did not hide in the city and let him be worn down to death bit by bit, but instead rushed out to fight him desperately, which made him a little cautious.

The young scholar raised his brows, a murderous look flashed across his pale face, he gritted his teeth, held onto the chessboard and retreated. Seeing this, the ghosts wanted to take advantage of the victory and attacked him all at once, relying on their large numbers. Only Pu Yanlan followed behind with an indifferent expression. She did not show it on her face, but reached out to hold out a small golden hairpin. This little golden hairpin was exchanged with Jie when she was in the Demon Realm before. It was a top-grade magic weapon, and Pu Yanlan liked it very much. When she was meditating in the center of the lake to expel the evil spirit, she also took the opportunity to refine the golden hairpin.

The previous owner of this hairpin should be a cultivator with fire spiritual roots. This hairpin is a phoenix-head hairpin. The phoenix mouth on the hairpin contains a fire spirit bead, which can spit out spiritual fire. Pu Yanlan calmly stretched out her white little hand and touched the hairpin, covering it with a thin layer of ghost energy, covering up the spiritual energy flowing on it, and then threw it lightly.
"go with!"

The golden hairpin flew up slowly, mixed in with the weapons of the ghosts that kept throwing at the young man in black, and approached the young man in black silently. At this moment, the ghosts burst out and pounced on him in a swarm, and the golden hairpin was mixed in the yin energy and approached the young man in black. Pu Yanlan, who was standing behind and saw that the time was ripe, suddenly pointed and
"call……"

The golden hairpin suddenly flashed with golden light, dispelling the ghostly aura, and a thin spiritual fire rushed straight to the eyes of the young man in black. The young man in black never thought that he would be burned by the spiritual fire in this formation full of yin energy.

"what……"

The young man in black was shocked. With his cultivation level at the Spirit Transformation Stage, if his eyes were burned, he would always suffer from temporary blindness. And now, if he lost his eyes, even for just one breath, he would be entangled by these ghosts and would not be able to escape for a while!
The young man in black protected his face with his hands and retreated repeatedly, but he did not expect that this was a spiritual fire, which was a positive yang thing. Once the spiritual fire touched his sleeves, under the restraint of yin and yang, the spiritual fire quickly spread along the sleeves to his arms. The young man in black was startled and waved his hands twice to extinguish the spiritual fire on his sleeves. Only when he looked again, he found that his Qiankun Plate was gone!
The young man in black was furious.
"How dare you, youngster!" As he waved his hand, a small ghost head appeared from the wide sleeves of his scholar's robe. The white-haired old man saw that he had succeeded and immediately called out to the ghosts,

"on!"

They pounced forward and submerged the little ghost and the black-clothed scholar who had just been released in the group of ghosts. At this time, Pu Yanlan held the Qiankun Plate in both hands and quietly retreated to the back without making any sound. She had discussed with the white-haired old man that they would be responsible for attracting firepower, while she would steal this thing. Now that she had succeeded, she did not want to fight anymore and flew back with a tap of her toes. This kind of magic weapon like the Qiankun Plate sounded very powerful, and its owner was a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage. Although she was ambushed and lost the magic weapon for a while, she could find her where she was in a flash by relying on the induction with the magic weapon!
So Pu Yanlan didn't even look at the little ghost that came out of the black-clothed young man's sleeve. She floated and returned to the front of the blood cave in a flash. There, her subordinates, big and small ghosts, had already driven most of the nearby beast souls in. Pu Yanlan gave an order,

"Hungry ghosts, listen up!"

The hungry ghosts immediately responded and gathered in front of her upon hearing the command. Pu Yanlan said,
"When you return to the land of hungry ghosts, you can enjoy these beast souls to your heart's content..."

Then he pointed at the Qiankun Plate and said,

"Take good care of this thing. Don't lose it or damage it. We will take it back after we finish this matter!"

When she said "we", she was referring to herself and Gu Shiyi. In front of this group of hungry ghosts, it would be more useful to mention Gu Shiyi's name than to mention her own. Sure enough, when those hungry ghosts heard that this thing was what Gu Shiyi wanted, they immediately responded respectfully,

"I will follow your orders, sir!"

Pu Yanlan nodded, and watched the hungry ghosts jump into the blood hole one by one, followed by many confused animal souls. When the last hungry ghost jumped into the blood hole, the Qiankun plate in her hand suddenly began to vibrate, and a ghost howl that resounded through the world came from afar.

"Ah...Give me back my Qiankun Plate!"

Without even raising her head, Pu Yanlan threw the Qiankun Plate into the blood hole. She saw the magic weapon falling several feet and paused in mid-air. As if an invisible giant hand was holding it up from below, the Qiankun Plate stopped falling and began to fly slowly upwards. However, the blood hole in front of her was shrinking rapidly. Before the Qiankun Plate could fly to the hole, the blood hole had already quickly expanded!
The land of hungry ghosts was another space. Once the entrance was sealed, the Qiankun Plate and its owner immediately lost contact.
"Roar……"

An extremely angry ghost howl came from a distance.
"Dong dong dong..."

Something came running towards them with big and fast strides. The huge force of its footsteps made the whole ground tremble. Unfortunately, it was too late. By the time it arrived, the ground had returned to its original state. The blood hole was completely closed, and the entrance to the land of hungry ghosts could no longer be found!

"Roar……"

The giant let out a deafening roar at Pu Yanlan. Pu Yanlan looked at it indifferently and saw that the thing in front of her was quite cute. It was actually a fair and tender baby without a single piece of clothing, with some sparse hair on its head, and chubby little hands, arms, belly and chest like lotus roots, a pink little face and a pink little mouth. Except for its eyes without pupils and the fact that it was as big as the giant's ghost, it was as cute as a normal human baby!
However, Pu Yanlan was a ghost cultivator, so she raised her eyebrows when she saw the baby.
"As expected of a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage, he can even create this kind of infant ghost!"

The huge ghost baby in front of him is not just one, but is made up of the souls of at least ninety-nine babies who died young. Because the souls of the ghost babies cannot be older than one year old when they die, they have not had time to enjoy the prosperity of this world and the love of their parents, so they are very resentful when they die. If one wants to gather ninety-nine souls of babies who died within one year old at the same time, most of them will have to use some very cruel and vicious means, so the baby ghosts that are refined will have even greater resentment. Once this kind of baby ghost is trained, its power can be as powerful as ten ghost kings!
