Chapter 318 - Untitled

Yu Huang crossed her arms and walked down the mountain peak. She raised her head and looked at the poisonous gas barrier above her head.

During the day, the sun covered the poisonous gas barrier, which was white in color. When night fell and the sun dissipated, the poisonous gas barrier became a black wall that completely enveloped the Broken Cliff during the night.

Yu Huang raised her head, but not a single star could be seen.

This sort of feeling made Yu Huang feel as if she was locked in a black iron pot, and there was even a suffocating feeling of a large pot lid covering her head.

Yu Huang frowned and continued walking forward.

Due to the environment, most of the trees under the Broken Cliff had no leaves, only bare tree trunks. The resentment aura on the ground was too strong, and Yu Huang could not see whether the ground was made of firewood or bones.

She simply kicked over a tree, uprooted it, and dragged it toward the cave. Branches slid on the ground and she occasionally tripped over piles of bones.

The bones rolled and clattered.

Yu Huang took a few steps forward and discovered a group of people dressed in black standing in front of her.

There would not be anyone in this damn place.

.

Yu Huang immediately stopped in her tracks and cautiously stared at those people. Those people slowly turned around. Yu Huang’s sharp eyes noticed that their front and back were covered in the same black fog.

They were all monsters born from resentment.

Yu Huang sensed something and hurriedly turned her head to look behind her. Only then did she realize that there were many ‘people’ floating behind her. These monsters formed a circle and surrounded Yu Huang, preventing her from escaping.

Kong Qing said that it was very noisy at night. Was he referring to these monsters?

Mentor had lived here for five years, so it was impossible for him to not know what the Broken Cliff’s situation was like at night. Yu Huang instantly understood Lin Jiansheng’s intentions. Asking her to come out to gather firewood was a lie, and he wanted her to accept the monsters’ test.

Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief and threw down the tree branch in her hand. Without another word, she immediately spread her Vermilion Bird wings and flew into the sky.

At the same time, Yu Huang immediately summoned her psychic energy ball. Waves of psychic energy flew out from her body and entered the psychic energy ball. The psychic energy ball immediately emitted a fiery red glow.

As soon as the fire-type psychic energy appeared, the monsters that were pouncing on Yu Huang immediately let out uncomfortable whooshing sounds.

Yu Huang had long memorized all the Purifying Spirit Incantations. She put away her distracting thoughts and used the most pious attitude to recite a Purifying Spirit Incantation.

Accompanied by the chanting, the psychic powers that surged into the Psychic Sphere immediately turned into pure Purifying Spirit Power. The Purifying Spirit Power was like sunlight, spreading in all directions with Yu Huang as the center.

When the Purifying Spirit Power was attached to the monsters, it caused their movements to slow down. They began to groan in pain as they sought relief.

Resentment and conscience engaged in a fierce struggle within every monster’s body.

If Yu Huang’s Purifying Spirit Power was powerful enough, she could cleanse these monsters in the shortest time possible and help them escape. However, Yu Huang’s abilities were still weak. She was currently only a Level 2 Purifying Spirit Master. She was unable to completely cleanse them.

Yu Huang used up all of her psychic energy, but she was still unable to purify these monsters. Soon, Yu Huang showed signs of exhaustion. The Psychic Sphere disappeared from her palm, and her body swayed as she fell to the ground.

Without the confinement of the Purifying Spirit Power, the monsters immediately swarmed towards Yu Huang in an attempt to devour her.

At that moment, a cold snort came from the mountaintop. A stream of pure Purifying Spirit Power also came towards them.

The monsters all stopped in their tracks. They turned to look at the mountain and saw a middle-aged man in a red robe standing on the mountain.

The man held the Purifying Spirit Scepter in his left hand as he chanted an incantation. Boundless amounts of Purifying Spirit Power emanated from the scepter while emitting a blinding light that surpassed the morning sun.

When the boundless power of purification enveloped the monsters, their bodies began to twist and struggle.

Gradually, the roars of the monsters became weaker. Following that, the black fog on the monsters dispersed and turned into a milky white gas that flew towards Lin Jiansheng.

After the monsters were purified, the grievous energy in their bodies turned into psychic power and returned to Lin Jiansheng.

This was the cultivation principle of a Purifying Spirit Master. By helping others cleanse their spirit, they would obtain the Purifying Spirit Power and raise their cultivation level.

The black fog completely dissipated, and Yu Huang saw many shining balls of light.

They were pure and clean spirit bodies. These light balls bowed to Lin Jiansheng before passing through the poisonous gas barrier above their heads and flying into the sky.

The lonely souls trapped in the Broken Cliff was finally freed and could enter reincarnation.

Yu Huang, her heart filled with emotions, stared blankly at this scene.

Purifying Spirits was actually such a sacred matter.

Yu Huang gazed at Lin Jiansheng, who was on a distant mountaintop. At that moment, she felt an indescribable admiration for her mentor.

Lin Jiansheng glanced at her and snorted. “Get back here, you disgraceful thing.”

Yu Huang rubbed her nose and hurriedly dragged the tree back to the mountain.

She used an axe to cut the tree into pieces and stacked them at the entrance of the cave. Yu Huang carried a pile of firewood into the cave. She first started a fire for Lin Jiansheng before saying, “Mentor, you should rest. I won’t sleep tonight.”

Lin Jiansheng asked her, “Where are you going?”

Yu Huang was a little ashamed. She said, “I’m going to train.”

Lin Jiansheng nodded. “Go ahead.”

Yu Huang turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Just as she was about to reach the entrance, she heard Lin Jiansheng say, “If there is a situation that cannot be resolved, crush the distress talisman. I will come and find you.”

“Okay.”

From that night onwards, Yu Huang began to practice the Purifying Spirit Art endlessly.

She recognized her own strength and knew that she wouldn’t be able to master it in one go, so she started to try from the weakest resentment monster.

There were always small monsters hiding in the piles of bones. Most of these monsters were only the size of a small fetus. They did not have a body or a heart, and were only a black mist of resentment.

Although Yu Huang’s abilities were weak, her control over her psychic power was extremely precise. She controlled her psychic power and turned it into a square cage, locking a small monster inside.

The little monster struggled in the cage, but it was too weak to break through Yu Huang’s psychic cage.

Yu Huang sat cross-legged on the ground. She summoned her Psychic Sphere and began chanting the Spirit Purification Incantation. Her psychic power transformed into the power of the Spirit Purification and sent it into the psychic cage. The little monster was enslaved by the grievous energy. There were two thoughts in its mind—

Devour!

Become stronger!

It wanted to devour more resentment and become a powerful monster!

The Purifying Spirit Power was eating away at its grievance. Sensing its weak body and realizing that it would be purified, the little monster began to struggle frantically.

It jumped up and down in the psychic cage while screaming shrilly.

Yu Huang was not soft-hearted in the slightest. She circulated all her psychic powers in her sea of consciousness and injected all her Purifying Spirit Power into the little monster’s body.

A large amount of the Purifying Spirit Power surged into the monster’s grievous energy at the same time. They extended their tentacles and covered the monster’s body like veins. The Fire Elemental psychic power burned in the monster’s body and released waves of Purifying Spirit Power.

The monster’s burned soul ached.

“Oooh!”

“Oooh!”

The monster’s cries turned from shrill to weak before finally returning to normal. It curled up in a corner of the cage and looked at a certain spot with a stunned expression. In an instant, all the good things and laughter from its life surfaced together, replacing the evil thoughts in the monster’s mind.

A milky white gas emitted from the monster’s body and returned to Yu Huang’s side.

Yu Huang opened up her pores and quietly absorbed the milky white gas. In an instant, Yu Huang seemed to have smelled the fresh morning dew in the forest.

It was a feeling that made her feel satisfied.

The monster’s spirit was completely purified. The black fog on its body completely dissipated before turning into a tiny soul blob of light. Yu Huang retracted her psychic cage, and the blob of light slowly floated into the sky. It passed through the poisonous gas barrier and returned to where it should be.

Yu Huang watched as the spiritual body left. She lowered her head to look at the Psychic Sphere in her palm and pursed her lips.

Kong Qing suddenly ran over while carrying a small hoe. He stood in the thick air and flipped the pile of bones beside Yu Huang. Yu Huang sat cross-legged on the ground. She could see what Kong Qing was doing.

Kong Qing removed the bones one by one. When he saw a lotus flower hidden under the bones, he revealed a happy smile.

Kong Qing moved the lotus flower out and placed it in a bag.

He was really a little helper who would do anything for her.
