At this time, Daoist Master Tian Xuan, who had been dispirited all this time, suddenly let out a loud shout. He stuck something into the top of his head, and his entire body burst out a rich golden light, wrapping up all of the red Yin energy around the zombie's body and forcefully dragging it towards the entrance of the altar.
The zombie let out an uneasy sound, but it had no way to break free.
"Daoist Tianxuan!"
I heard Tang Rou's mournful cry. The Mysterious Sky Technique turned into a golden light and fell into the hole along with the zombie.
"Don't worry about me. Hurry up and restore the puppet formation. It won't take long before I can seal this thing for all eternity. The reason I'm staying here is to wait for this day."
Daoist Master Tian Xuan's voice was filled with determination as he burned the Profound Qi of his life as the source of power to seal this zombie.
It was too late to stop him now.
"Tang Rou, calm down. If you can help, then hurry over. If not, then Daoist Tianxuan will have sacrificed himself for nothing."
At this moment, I persuaded Tang Rou.
Tang Rou slowly stood up and nodded her head at me.
"Are all of you crazy? Are you willing to sacrifice your own lives just to stop me?"
The black-clothed woman slowly raised her head, her expression frighteningly frightening. A bit of her skin and flesh was tightly stretched on her skeletal face, and her aura was weak.
Most of the blood essence in his body had probably been absorbed by now.
If he wasn't a cultivator, he would have died a long time ago. To be able to survive until now was truly a blessing in disguise.
I didn't pay any attention to this woman, but quickly started to check the locations of the formation cores in the forest.
Although these Formation Aperture had lost most of its effect, it could still barely activate after a few maneuvers. As long as this was done, it could greatly suppress the zombie's ability.
Tang Rou slowly ran and quickly threw the remaining paper talismans she had on her into the air to activate the puppet formation.
It's impossible to completely repair it, so with our power, we can mobilize the Yin Yang energy in this place. As long as we can temporarily maintain the puppet formation, even if it's just for a moment, it'll be able to achieve our goal.
However, I still underestimated the ability of that zombie. At this moment, red Baleful Yin Force was constantly emitting from the bottom of the altar, pulling at the surrounding Yin Yang aura, wanting to forcefully change the layout of this place.
It seemed that Daoist Tian Xuan was at the end of his tether. He had no way to control the zombie on his own.
The puppet formation that had just been repaired was about to be destroyed, but there was nothing I could do.
Just as the puppet formation was about to be defeated once again, a white figure suddenly sweeps past me. It's that female ghost.
I immediately understood what the female ghost was trying to do. Last time, the female ghost was trying to help me with everything she had while running away with Tang Rou. Her soul was almost gone from her body.
Once the formation was activated and the zombie was sealed, the Baleful Yin Force here would thin out. This female ghost girl would also dissipate in advance, which was the same as speeding up the death of her soul.
"No!"
The woman in black, who had been sitting on the ground, immediately swallowed the secret recipe. Her shriveled skin immediately became swollen, and her physical strength was restored in an instant.
She jumped up from the ground with a white talisman in her hand. She wanted to stop that suicidal action of her soul.
"Little sister, I am satisfied to see you again before my soul dissipates. They are all good people, and what we did before was only helping the evil ones. Your sister, I, was killed by your so-called accomplices. Listen to me and stay away from those people."
The ghost lady looked at the woman in black for a moment, and then her soul flew away without any hesitation. The woman then gathered together, and viciously collided with a grass doll in the puppet formation.
As a result, the originally dim puppet formation was once again lit up, and the flow of the red Baleful Yin Force slowed down by a great deal.
Tang Rou and I were on the defensive at the same time. It was a pity that we were still a bit too slow. There was still one more piece of evidence that needed suppression, but we couldn't get anyone else to do it.
The only one left on the scene was the black-clothed girl with a defeated face and weak steps.
She originally came to subdue that zombie to oppose us. She has a blood feud with us, so she can't help us at all.
But what happened next made both Tang Rou and I feel that something was off.
The woman in black mumbled to herself as a sinister smile appeared on her face. Then, she stood up shakily and ran towards the base of the last puppet formation.
"Let me help you."
Tang Rou and I nodded and simultaneously started to activate the puppet array to restart.
The golem formation was activated once more, and Daoist Tianxuan perished as well.
My heart sank as I quickly extended my hand and used the Life Death Blade to draw a picture of a Soul Sealing Formation on my palm.
When I arrived at the entrance of the altar, I mercilessly smacked the blood-red Soul Sealing Imprint on a huge stone.
In that instant, I felt as if my blood essence was about to be sucked out of me.
I went limp and sat down on the floor.
"Are you alright?"
Tang Rou's voice came from behind me. I didn't have the strength to reply and slightly shook my head.
At this moment, that light green figure appeared in front of me. Then, Daoist Master Tian Xuan smiled at me and extended his finger, bringing with it a bit of a green glow as he poked my forehead.
In that instant, I felt enlightened. A lot of Daoism knowledge, as well as many theories, spells, seals and the like all entered my brain and were imprinted in my memory.
It seemed to be some kind of inheritance.
I actually got the knowledge that Daoist Tianxuan had learned in his life. Moreover, my body also has a green aura. This is the unique power that Daoist Tianxuan brought with him when he used his Tao technique.
This was the true essence formed by the gathering of Daoists after decades of cultivation.
I really did not expect that before he died, he would actually do such a thing and pass on all his most precious things to me.
Subsequently, Daoist Master Tian Xuan's body turned into specks of light before slowly disappearing into the air.
When I came back to my senses, I found that the woman in black had disappeared, and the ghost of the ghost had also disappeared.
"That woman took a fragment of the ghost girl's soul, but she left this one behind."
Tang Rou shakily stood up and walked in front of me. In her hands, she held a crystal that looked like a diamond.
