All that was recorded in this memory made Xiao Yu's gaze gradually sharpen. According to the memories here, what had happened was far more ruthless and cruel than anything he had seen in Zhong Kui’s memories.
Gradually, as Xiao Yu finished searching through this memory, a whirlwind of yin煞qi (malevolent ghostly energy) formed around his shade, swirling within the room. Although this kind of energy has no form or substance, it now gave people the feeling of howling winds.
"Wuuu..." As Xiao Yu’s aura soared to its peak, several fierce roars and mournful cries echoed in the surrounding rooms.
It was worth noting that Xiao Yu's shade had merged with Zhong Kui’s true spirit. Its level could be said to be very high. Under full use of his shade, not only would these ghosts feel oppressed and fearful, but even some practitioners from secret arts or super martial artists’ souls would experience the same.
Therefore, when Xiao Yu’s shade's anger was released without restraint, the ghosts in this room immediately became chaotic. Whether they were Japanese ghosts or ordinary citizens' spirits, those farther away from Xiao Yu roared fiercely out of fear while those closer to him issued mournful cries.
Hearing these sounds, Xiao Yu’s shade gradually retracted its aura; however, his cold and fierce gaze did not lessen in the slightest. In fact, it intensified slightly with a hint of ruthlessness.
"Sigh..." When Xiao Yu turned to look at the several souls in the corner who were torn apart by wounds, he sighed lightly. These ghosts weren't like those ordinary ones he had encountered earlier—they still retained some consciousness and awareness. Moreover, since these were spirits of regular people, Xiao Yu hadn’t devoured them.
Looking at these ghosts, Xiao Yu moved his other hand. Instantly, a mysterious pattern that had previously turned into lines on his arm began to move slightly before forming the shape of a book in his other hand. This item was the Ghost Scroll.
"Seal!" As this Ghost Scroll opened slowly in Xiao Yu’s hand, he commanded softly towards these torn-apart ghosts. They were instantly sealed inside the scroll by Xiao Yu.
Though these ghosts were badly injured with countless wounds, they still retained their consciousness and awareness. After learning everything from that Japanese ghost, Xiao Yu felt a sense of pity for them and wanted to send them to the netherworld; however, this place was a breeding ground for ghosts and couldn't open the gates of hell.
Therefore, he could only wait until later when he left this place before opening those gates. Hence, Xiao Yu first sealed these ghosts inside his Ghost Scroll. Within the scroll, not only could it simulate hellish torture based on Xiao Yu’s intentions but also nurture and care for spirits.
After Xiao Yu put all the ghosts into the Book of Yin Souls, he vanished in a flash and reappeared in the next room.
There was no pause as Xiao Yu entered this new room. Upon seeing the Japanese ghosts floating around inside, his mouth suddenly opened wide and he sucked them all in forcefully; instantly, these ghosts were devoured by him and transformed into nutrients to nourish his Book of Yin Souls.
Having absorbed that person's memories, Xiao Yu was somewhat familiar with this place. Indeed, as expected, it turned out to be a biochemical base from the time when Japan occupied China; furthermore, it had been heavily fortified.
During the Anti-Japanese War period, after suffering defeat, they couldn’t evacuate in time and dared not expose this underground facility, so they sealed off this place. The people here committed seppuku for their empire.
The structure of seals inside the walls was something even an ordinary Japanese soldier like him wouldn't know about.
Moreover, from this ghost's memories, Xiao Yu learned that there were numerous biological weapons stored in this base. That was precisely why he was so furious; if these biological weapons were detonated here, China would likely be plunged into a state of fear and panic.
Fortunately, they didn’t set off the biological weapons back then, otherwise Xiao Yu couldn't even imagine what the consequences might have been.
The reason why they didn't trigger these weapons was something that no one could figure out. But Xiao Yu guessed that Japan, having suffered defeat during WWII, wouldn't dare to do such a thing; after all, they were also afraid of their nation being dealt a devastating blow since two atomic bombs had already left them stunned.
According to the memories of that person, there was an entire room filled with biological weapons in this base. If any construction work or something like that caused damage to these weapons...
Xiao Yu found himself overwhelmed at the thought. Even the malevolent spirits that had run rampant back then didn't put him under such pressure as this place did; he never imagined that this would be more terrifying than those spirits of old, so Xiao Yu dealt with all these ghosts without any hesitation.
After devouring all the Japanese ghosts in this room, Xiao Yu also returned the ghosts hiding in corners to the Book of Yin Souls. Some of them had consciousness while others didn’t; for the latter, he simply let them dissipate into thin air because those without consciousness couldn't survive in the underworld.
Xiao Yu did not spare a single Japanese ghost; what he wanted was nothing less than their complete annihilation.
Xiao Yu swept down the path, and soon he cleaned up dozens of ghosts. Xiao Yu's yin soul was gradually solidifying; after the recent round of devouring, his yin soul’s strength had mostly recovered.
The floating Xiao Yu suddenly stopped in mid-air as he looked ahead. A dark figure suddenly appeared on the wall before him.
Earlier, Xiao Yu felt a strong aura coming from behind the wall and noticed it getting closer to him. That's why he paused to wait for this ghost to show itself.
Looking at this ghost, Xiao Yu was slightly stunned. Under the Yin-Yang Eyes of his yin soul, nearly everything about this ghost was exposed under his gaze.
This ghost’s body was extremely solid and also emitted a faint mysterious fluctuation in its presence.
"Ghost Devouring the World!"
Xiao Yu roared silently as he looked at this ghost.
However, when faced with Xiao Yu's one-meter-wide head and the suction force from his mouth, the ghost was only initially surprised but did not show any fear.
In the face of the suction force generated by Xiao Yu’s giant mouth, after advancing a few steps, this ghost stood still in mid-air like a boulder. No matter how powerful the suction force, it could not pose a threat to this ghost. Seeing such a situation, Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment. This was the first time since he obtained Zhong Kui's inheritance that he encountered such a scenario; moreover, this ghost was by far the most formidable one he had faced. Fortunately, at the beginning, he devoured many evil ghosts to strengthen his yin soul significantly, otherwise it would have been hard to predict the outcome.
Looking at this ghost, Xiao Yu’s Sword of Demon Slaying suddenly flashed with a golden light. He lightly flicked his hand, and the Sword of Demon Slaying, carrying the golden light, quickly extended outwards towards the ghost.
This ghost was involuntarily jolted in the heart when it saw the approaching Sword of Demon Slaying, but he felt very confident about his strength, so instead of making any additional movements, he reached out to grab the Sword of Demon Slaying.
After all, the Sword of Demon Slaying carried righteous energy rather than primordial qi; thus, it was like an ordinary sword and did not emit any fluctuation in primordial qi.
The palpitation in his heart was just a natural perception that arose when he reached a certain level of strength. This perception was an intuitive response from the depths of his soul.
However, seeing Xiao Yu have no way to deal with him, he didn't take this feeling seriously. Furthermore, since Xiao Yu's sword had shown no fluctuations in power, he started looking down on Xiao Yu.
This ghost met Xiao Yu's Demon-Slaying Sword with a disdainful hand.
"Zi" As the ghost grabbed Xiao Yu’s Demon-Slaying Sword, an ear-piercing sound echoed. It sounded like when red-hot烙鐵 is dropped on someone, but instead of white smoke rising from the person's body, it was just plain white smoke now.
"Ah!" With this sound came a sudden cry of pain. Following the scream, his hand gripping Xiao Yu’s Demon-Slaying Sword melted rapidly until there was nothing left in his hand.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Yu flicked his wrist, and his Demon-Slaying Sword swept towards the ghost's body.
"Bastard!" The ghost roared as he tried to dodge the sword by floating backwards. But when he moved back slightly, Xiao Yu’s enormous mouth emitted a suction force that halted him in mid-air, with the ghost even showing signs of moving forward.
It was because Xiao Yu's previous strike had been so sudden and strange that this ghost lost his composure. He knew how powerful he was but saw his hand melt away instantly when it should have easily blocked Xiao Yu’s sword. Seeing Xiao Yu sweeping towards him again, his previously calm mind vanished, making him susceptible to the suction force from Xiao Yu's mouth.
The ghost tried desperately to resist the suction force coming from Xiao Yu's mouth but had barely steadied himself before seeing Xiao Yu’s Demon-Slaying Sword charging at him. He knew how powerful this sword was and couldn't help but pale when he saw it cutting across his waist.
In a helpless situation, the ghost gritted his teeth and charged towards the giant mouth despite the suction force.
Due to the suction force from the giant mouth, seeing that he could not dodge this sword, he decided to rush into the giant mouth. Though unsure of what would happen if he were eaten by it, being cut in half by Xiao Yu’s sword was worse. Furthermore, he believed his strength made him immune to any harm inside this giant mouth.ng.When Fangyuan answered the call and heard what was said on the other end of the line, his expression suddenly turned grim. He said, "I understand!" before hanging up the call."Chairman Jin, Chairma...
