Fang Zheng controlled the ghost king's body to sink into the ground, and like a wisp of dark wind, it penetrated into an empty culvert.

"Uh-huh!"

The dark wind rotates, revealing the ghost body.

He chose a place to sit cross-legged casually, looked up through the thick soil, and then groaned.

"It seems they are targeting Fang Mou!"

With twinkling eyes, he directly attached the Shangqing Big Hole Thunder True Talisman to his body and used his hand seals to adjust the luck and breath.

In the fight just now, he looked mighty, even facing a real person who had practiced cultivation for nearly three hundred years.

In fact, all means have been used, and the Seven Killing Curse is burning ghost energy all the time to support high-intensity explosions.

If he hadn't carried a magic talisman with him and intimidated the opponent with his determination to defeat the enemy, he would have really fallen into trouble today.

‘Meng Po has deep magic power and has several extraordinary powerful magic weapons. Even if the real body comes, she is not sure of victory. ’

'Well……'

‘If the main body and the Ghost King join forces, they should be able to secure the top position. Unfortunately, the secret realm of Yama suppresses the main body from exerting its strength. ’

"Old woman!"

His thoughts turned, and when his breath recovered a little, Fang Zheng raised his head and shouted:

"How long do you want to keep an eye on?"

"Why do fellow Taoists reject people thousands of miles away?" Po Meng sat cross-legged on the clouds and spoke slowly:

"I sincerely invite you."

"snort!"

Fang Zheng snorted coldly:

"Old woman, don't bully others too much. If you push me too hard, I will go to Fengdu City and see how many people there are for me to kill!"

"Um?"

Po Meng's face changed slightly, and her eyes showed fear.

If this person is really allowed to go to Fengdu City, there will probably be rivers of blood and many killings.

The key is,

The magic talisman in the opponent's hand is too terrifying, even if the city lord comes, he will be unable to resist.

Even if it was just one person, no one would try it.

"Fellow."

Po Meng took a deep breath and slowed down her voice:

"I don't have any evil intentions. As long as fellow Taoist agrees to take action, not only will the past be cleared up, Fengdu City will also be richly rewarded."

"..." Fang Zheng's eyes flickered and he suddenly asked:

"When will we do it?"

"Fellow Taoist, have you agreed?" Po Meng looked surprised and said immediately:

"Half a month later!"

Half a month later?

Isn’t that the day when the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave opens?

Choosing this time, I guess I guessed that I was very interested in the things in the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave.

Lure yourself away to ensure that Fengdu is safe.

Moreover, the old monster from Montenegro would not have guessed that Zhou Qi would dare to leave Fengdu City at such a critical moment.

but……

Fang Zheng tentatively spoke:

"Fengdu Ghost King will also take action?"

"Of course." Po Meng nodded:

"The city lord dealt with the old monster of Black Mountain, and we dealt with the Bones and the Tiger. Among them, the Tiger was seriously injured and his strength was even worse."

"It's just a bone. I can handle it with confidence on my own. My fellow Taoist only needs to stand aside and sweep the formation."

"Ha..." Fang Zheng chuckled:

"If it's so easy, why bother calling me?"

"Besides, even if we finally solve the demonic evil that is entrenched in Black Mountain, what will happen if you all turn against each other?"

"Calling Taoist friends is just a precaution." Po Meng explained:

"After all, we have been fully prepared for the previous siege of Montenegro, but in the end we repeatedly failed."

"With the help of fellow Taoists, we will surely achieve great success in one fell swoop."

She didn't mind giving Fang Zheng a high hat.

"As for me waiting to fall out..."

Po Meng chuckled:

"My fellow Taoist has a divine talisman to protect his body. Who dares to fight to the death?"

"Now, I can make the Great Oath of Yama. Fellow Taoists should know the effect of this oath. No one dares to disobey it."

"Ah……"

"I'm also afraid that my fellow Taoist will fall out!"

Fang Zheng touched his chin.

Zhou Beggar is also going?

Doesn't that mean...

By then, there will be no one guarding the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave?

Time passes.

Before you know it, the day has come for the selection of young people from all over the country.

Fengdu City selects elite young people, not only based on talent and cultivation, but also in the end there will be an actual combat competition.

If you are good at fighting and challenge in actual combat, you can also be selected to enter the inner city or stay in the outer city.

on the contrary,

Even if you have outstanding talent and cultivation, if you lose early to others, your place in the city will not be guaranteed.

But that rarely happens.

Beicheng martial arts arena.

Dozens of arenas are scattered among them.

Countless people from Fengdu City gathered around the ring to watch, and people buying and selling candies and snacks kept shouting.

There was a lot of hustle and bustle.

Every year's selection competition is a big day for the people of Fengdu City to watch.

On the stage,

The monk in black robe shouted:

"No. 715, versus No. 716!"

Number 715 is Ma Chao.

Fang Zheng patted Ma Chao on the shoulder and encouraged him with a voice:

"Go!"

"yes."

Ma Chao nodded, took two steps forward, turned over, and jumped onto the platform that was about ten feet high. He cupped his fists and saluted the monk in charge of the arena.

The opponent was not a warrior. He climbed up the steps, holding a white bone sword and looking cautiously on his face.

He is about eight or nine years old.

"please!"

"please!"

The two of them greeted each other.

The monk didn't give the two of them time to exchange greetings, and waved his sleeves:

"start!"

"Peng!"

The arena trembled under Ma Chao's feet, and he rushed forward using his strength, approaching tentatively from different angles like a snake.

'Warlocks are better at long-range attacks, while warriors are better at close combat. When facing warlocks who have not yet mastered their magic power, all they have to do is close the distance...'

‘Even if your cultivation level is one level lower, you still have a good chance of winning! ’

Fang Zheng's instructions flashed through his mind, Ma Chao's eyes narrowed, and his five fingers suddenly stretched out like claws.

"Zi..."

"Uh-huh!"

There were shadows of people intertwining in the field. Before the spectators could recover, one person had already rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.

"No. 715 wins!"

The monk who presided over the competition raised his eyebrows slightly and asked:

"Little guy, what's your name?"

"Ma Chao!" Ma Chao raised his head:

"Ma Ning is my sister."

"Um?"

The monk obviously knew that Ma Ning was in the limelight these days, and his face straightened when he heard this.

"It turns out he's Junior Sister Ning's younger brother. He's really amazing. He's about to realize the true meaning of martial arts, right?"

"My surname is Wu and my name is Wu Li. Junior brother, I should be the host of your next few competitions."

His title has been changed from little guy to junior brother.

"It turns out to be Senior Brother Wu." Ma Chao got off the donkey along the slope and said:

"Senior Brother Wu is here to help me next."

"It should."

Wu Li nodded with a smile and sent Ma Chao off before continuing to call.

"Master!"

Ma Chao came to Fang Zhan with excitement on his face, waved his arms and said:

"I won."

"Yeah." Fang Zheng nodded:

"well done."

not far away.

"No. 822 wins!"

On the ring, Erya held the soul-enchanting chain and waved her hands proudly, her eyebrows filled with joy.

Cui Gu below had a gloomy expression.

Erya lacked food and clothing when she was young, resulting in a lack of innate vitality. Later, she had no famous master in practicing magic.

To this day, after drinking three bowls of Meng Po Soup, my cultivation has not reached the second level of the Yama Heart Sutra.

The first competition was so dangerous...

How many will you get in the end?

I'm afraid I can't even stay in the outer city!

And if we go back, let alone the troubles made by the Zhang family shrew, the way back will be dangerous and unpredictable.

Are we two mothers destined to suffer for the rest of our lives?

"Wow..."

Suddenly there was a loud roar in the distance.

Fang Zheng heard the sound and went to see Ma Ning holding the Hundred Ghost Flag and driving more than ten ghosts towards his opponent.

There was even a fierce ghost hovering behind it.

Such strength...

Even the monks who presided over the arena were not as good as they were. The people who fought against her were unlucky. Before they could even cast a spell, their faces looked desperate and they simply chose to admit defeat.

"Junior Sister Ning, congratulations on your victory."

"Thank you."

Ma Ning nodded, turned around and landed lightly on the ring.

Disciples Zuo Meng and Wen Qing also won one after another, but more of the young men who traveled with them were defeated on the first day.

…………

The competition lasted for five days in total.

The first four days were spent selecting young people who could stay in Fengdu City, and the last day was spent competing for a spot in the inner city.

night.

A banquet was held again in the courtyard to celebrate the sister and brother's victory.

"In addition to the annual selection, there are other ways to enter the inner city, but only the selection is the most eye-catching." Ma Ning looked directly at his younger brother and said:

"Do you know why?"

"Why?" Ma Chao looked confused.

"Because of the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave!" Ma Ning said solemnly:

"The Ten Thousand Ghost Cave is the foundation of Fengdu Ghost City. The reason why our predecessors built the city here is because there is a Ten Thousand Ghost Cave underneath, which contains rich Yin Qi. It can control the surrounding Yin veins and cleanse the marrow to rebuild the body."

"The top ten in the martial arts performance will get a place to enter the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave. After they come out, they will all be reborn."

"Top ten?" Ma Chao frowned:

"Didn't I say that the rules were changed this year and there are twenty places?"

The first twenty,

He can still give it a try.

top ten……

not much hope!

"What has been changed is the quota for entering the inner city. The number of people entering the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave is still ten. This has not changed." Ma Ning shook his head:

"As long as you can enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, you will definitely become a martial artist or a mage in the future, without exception for thousands of years."

"Sister..." Ma Chao smiled bitterly:

"I'm not sure about the top 20, but the top 10... I can only say I'll do my best."

Ma Ning frowned.

Then he shook his head slightly.

Too.

Before coming here, the biggest wish of the siblings was to stay in the outer city, and they couldn't even think about it in the inner city.

Now that I have the opportunity to stay in the inner city, I still dream of going further. People are always dissatisfied.

"Then let's strive for the top twenty first."

Ma Ning sighed and said:

"The first twenty will still be supported by the resources of Fengdu City, and the monks in the inner city will have additional opportunities to enter the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave. I will find a way to fight for you when the time comes."

"Ma Ning."

Fang Zheng suddenly said:

"I heard that the top three can enter the depths of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave and get a glimpse of the complete version of the Yama Heart Sutra."

"yes."

Ma Ning smiled:

"I'm one of them."

Although the final top three have not yet been selected, everyone knows that Ma Ning must be the first.

Even if there was an accident, the ghost mother-in-law could force her in.

"Congratulations!"

Fang Zheng nodded:

"With your current cultivation level and the baptism of Yin Qi from Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, your future achievements may not be weaker than those of Huagui Guansuo."

"Hehe..." Ma Ning grinned:

"Thank you Master Fang for your kind words."

"I haven't been feeling well these past two days. I'm afraid I won't be able to watch you play." Fang Zheng added:

"Ma Ning, I'm not worried. Ma Chao, you have to work hard."

"Master..." Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily:

"I will definitely compete well and not let you down, Master."

…………

After sending Ma Ning and Ma Chao away, Fang Zheng closed the door. A flash of inspiration occurred in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the heavenly compass appeared out of thin air.

The compass and the eight trigrams are moving rapidly.

Calculate, spy, hide...

With the blessing of many secret techniques, even if Fengdu Ghost King Zhou Qi comes in person, I believe he can cover it up for a while.

Everything was ready. Fangzheng sat cross-legged on the futon, making seals with his hands, and the magic power in his body was flowing in an orderly manner.

Not long after.

Countless rays of dark light gathered in his palm.

The halo condensed and gradually turned into a strange, evil black eye, blinking slowly.

"Condensation!"

He drank in his mouth, his eyes suddenly focused, and it actually fell on his palms like a solid body.

"call……"

Fang Zheng exhaled softly and looked at his hands with a look of satisfaction on his face:

"It took me so long, but I finally succeeded. I hope this Heavenly Snake Dharma Eye is really as good as the records describe."

"otherwise……"

"I'm afraid I have to find another way."

This technique originated from the ancient snake god. It is said that it can communicate with other people's hearts in foreign lands. It is extremely mysterious and special.

Long lost.

Now it can be reproduced in the hands of Founder.

the next day.

Ma Chao successfully advanced, as did Erya, Zuo Meng, Li Ying and others, while nearly half of their peers had failed.

The third day.

Erya faced off against a warrior who had cultivated the Yama Heart Sutra to the second level. After holding on for a while, he was defeated and fell into the ring.

That night,

Ding Li came to visit.

"That girl Erya has a stubborn personality. This is a good thing in the early stages of practice. It's a pity that she started too late."

"By the way, Wen Qing went to the inner city."

"Huh?" Fang was surprised:

"How does she get to the inner city?"

Everyone in Fengdu City can enter the inner city, but there are strict restrictions on long-term residence in the inner city.

The trip to the inner city that Ding Li mentioned was definitely not just a casual stroll.

"Climb the high branches!"

"She somehow got to know a deacon who had practiced the Yama Heart Sutra to the sixth level, and became that man's concubine."

Ding Li curled his lips with disdain and seemed a little envious:

"Wen Qing is a woman who is willing to give up. When I heard that she came to Fengdu City, she followed him day and night."

"Finally succeeded in joining a wealthy family."

"That's right." Fang Zheng nodded:

"Where's Brother Ding?"

"I'm wondering if I can stay in the outer city. Mr. Ren said that there are a few patrol errands in Fengdu. If I can be on duty, I can stay." Ding Li told his plan:

"After ten years of work, you can live permanently. If you can become a leader and make a contribution, you can even settle in the inner city."

"Ren Lao is getting older. According to the rules of Fengdu City, he can get an honorary degree after working hard for so many years. He can find a place on the edge of the inner city."

"..."

Fang Zheng nodded silently and said after a long time:

"It seems that those who have the means to stay will stay. I'm afraid not many will go back. Isn't it very dangerous?"

"Yes." Ding Li shrugged:

"An opportunity comes once every four years, every time."

Finally, make a summary.

"It's not easy to live in Fengdu!"

When Ding Li was drunk and staggered to say goodbye, Cui Gu and Erya came to visit.

"I said that."

Fang Zheng shook his head speechlessly:

"I can't help you with entering the inner city."

"Plop!"

Cui Gu's knees weakened and she knelt down directly on the ground. She took out a command talisman from her body and held it up high and handed it over:

"Master Fang, I...I am willing to be your ghost servant, so that...I can let Erya follow you into the inner city."

"Um?"

Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face:

"Ghost servant?"

"You have to think carefully. If you want to be a ghost servant, you have to give up your physical body. From now on, you will use your soul body to do my bidding."

"With just a thought, Fang can execute your life or death at will!"

The so-called ghost servant is a kind of slave, but it is more special. The master has absolute control over the ghost servant.

The ghost servant has no body and has changed to the ghost path. His soul is in the hands of his master and it is difficult to resist.

Transformed into a ghost servant, life would be worse than death.

It also means completely losing the right to be a human being.

"..."

Cui Gu's cheeks twitched and her head struck the ground:

"As long as Master Fang can take my daughter into the inner city, I... am willing to do so!"

"mother!"

Erya's eyes were blank, and she was still a little confused about Cui Gu's decision, but she also realized that this matter was unusual.

"Mom, I won't go to the inner city."

"Shut up!"

Cui Gu roared:

"You have no part in your transformation here!"

"Well..." Fang Zheng touched his chin, his thoughts turned, and he said slowly:

"Just in time, I have something I need someone to do. If you are willing, I can take Erya into the inner city."

"really?"

Cui Gu suddenly raised her head, then nodded heavily, without asking what was going on, and said directly:

"I do!"

The fourth day.

Ma Chao successfully advanced.

The fifth day.

Fang Zheng participated in the last day of the competition and witnessed Ma Ning's decisive victory in taking the first place.

pity.

Ma Chao stopped at the top thirty.

The Ten Thousand Ghost Cave is about to open.

the other side.

The day agreed by Meng Po and Fang Zheng also came.
