7 Ghost Lamp Temple

After leaving the airport, the three of them took a cab whilst checking for any news on Ghost Lamp Temple. Sitting in the backseat, Yifeng thought to himself "Hmm, how should I go about telling them about the Ghost Lamp Temple? In the original series, Shuhang's roommate had a grandpa who lived in the area and knew about it to an extent.. Well let's just follow that route for now until we actually arrive at the temple and extract the ghost spirits."

"Wait, but there's only two ghost spirits… Shuhang's talent is weaker than mine so I guess he will keep it. I'll have to travel around and look for a place filled with miasma and look for my own ghost spirit, hopefully I can find a High Grade Ghost Spirit for myself."

"Yifeng." Shuhang said

"..."

"Yifeng!"

"Huh oh sorry." Yifeng replied

"I called you a couple times man, anyways apparently one of my roommates grandpa has information about the temple." Shuhang said

"Alright, let's wait for him to pick us up and then we'll go." Yifeng replied

Soft Feather stood behind the two brothers and didn't say a word as she looked at her phone screen and hoped for more information

"Man I can't believe Venerable Spirit Butterfly set up this entire trip for Soft Feather years ago.. He even purposely left her a Middle Grade Ghost Spirit. I bet he didn't think that someone else would plant another one here." Yifeng thought as the trio waited

After a while, Song Shuhang's room mate Lin Tubo arrived on a motorbike along with his friends and lent the trio a bike then drove to his grandpa's place

…

Arriving at the place, Lin Tubo's grandpa explained the history behind the Ghost Lamp Temple which lead back to 60 years ago. After his explanation the trio left stayed until midnight then went directly to Ghost Lamp Temple whilst Soft Feather was filled with excitement about going on an adventure

As they reached the burial place of Huang Dagen who had previously owned the tomb and his family. Having a huge chair-shaped tomb was a popular design fifty to sixty years back. As if Huang Dagen had known that he and his family were about to die, the constructed tomb was extremely huge, a perfect fit for fourteen people from four generations of his family to be buried.

As it was in the middle of the night, the tomb's surroundings were somewhat eerie. The trio stood right in front of the entrance as Soft Feather opened her suitcase and took out a rod along with some talismans

"Talismans huh, I should learn the art from someone in the Nine Provinces Number One Group." Yifeng thought

Soft Feather with her rod in hand stood in front and lead the way as the trio looked around at the eerie abandoned temple

Song Shuhang then found a few clean stones and sat down while looking at Soft Feather bustling about beside the tomb. Then the two brothers watched as she danced whilst two green lights danced about along with her actions

Song Yifeng told Shuhang to activate the ability he gained from opening his Eye Acupoint then opened up his own Divine Sight as the two saw the green lights change into Ghost like figures

"So that's what a Ghost Spirit looks like huh." Yifeng said out loud

"So what do they do Yifeng?" Shuhang asked

"Well Ghost spirits are quite rare. After signing a spiritual contract with its owner, an adult spirit could connect with its owner's mind, and share energy with its owner even if it was just a low-rank one. In other words, one could get one more energy reserve than others by owning a low-rank ghost spirit! However, a low-rank ghost spirit could only advance to Third Stage Battle King Realm. After reaching middle-rank, a ghost spirit would have a good attack power, and its cultivation speed was not any slower than that of ordinary cultivators. With some luck, it could even reach Sixth Stage True Monarch Realm. It was simply a good helper to cultivators."

"Moreover, middle-rank ghost spirits usually had one or two innate skills, and these innate skills had a great variety. As for high-rank ghost spirits, they'd already acquired wisdom not inferior to man's, and their cultivation speed was even faster than that of ordinary cultivators. They could even learn some magic spells from Ghost Dao. If they could cultivate these magic spells to the extreme, they could even turn into ghost immortals if they could overcome tribulation. However, a high-rank ghost spirit are considered to exist only in the legends. Apparently the number of High rank Ghost Spirits could be counted on a single hand

"In addition, a ghost spirit of middle-rank or above could temper its owner's energy. Be it blood and qi, true qi, or spiritual qi, a ghost spirit could temper them and make them purer and of higher quality as its energy had been connected with its owner's. Once a spiritual contract was established, a ghost spirit would never betray the owner. They would do anything their owners told them to do without a single word of complaint."

"Hmm you sure know a lot about them." Shuhang said

"Uh yea I don't know why I do." Yifeng said before sarcastically coughing a few times as they watched Soft Feather

"So what do we do now?" Shuhang asked

"Uh watch I guess? Wait there's a medicinal herb over there let me go pick it up." Yifeng said as he walked towards a stalk of Poisonous Dragon Plant

Woosh*

As he picked it up, a loud bang sound was heard. However, as he looked up he saw an invisible protective wall appear as the two ghost spirits who moved their attention towards Song Shuhang and Song Yifeng's location slammed into it

Afterward, Soft Feather took out some beads called the Spirit Binding Ice Bead and used it to seal the Ghost Spirits inside them

"Senior, I'm really thankful for your help this time. If not for you, I'm afraid these two ghost spirits would have escaped. If they were to escape, they would never return here again and it would be a headache to look for them next time." Soft Feather was incomparably grateful.

"Oh sure and about the Ghost Spirits since there's two of them you should give one to Shuhang and keep the other one for yourself." Yifeng said

"Huh for me? But you were the one who activated the formation." Shuhang said surprised

"Yea but well, you need it more than I do. Though both of us can already purify our qi greatly, the technique I gave you would benefit you more since almost all of my qi is purified to the peak already." Yifeng replied

Soft Feather nodded as she handed over one of the ghost spirits to Shuhang then the trio left the Ghost Lamp Temple

…

"Hmm, the 2nd Stage True Master guy should be watching us from somewhere. Though I doubt he has the balls to make a move with three cultivators over the 3rd stage Battle King here." Song Yifeng thought as they left and returned
