The situation was the same as the man had expected.

Previously, the man had already left a rune on Qin Yubing's and Zhong Ling's body. As long as the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp chooses any one of them, they would be left with their own Qi in the end with the rune. Once the marriage was over, the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp would recognize him as its master.

At this moment, everything was going according to the man's plan, and he couldn't help but feel a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp was a high level magical equipment, and was very difficult for ordinary people to obtain. Furthermore, because the process of recognizing a master was extremely bloody, it was not something one could obtain just by meeting one.

They only saw the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp floating above Qin Yubing's head for five seconds. Suddenly, the black light shone brightly and the entire light enveloped Qin Yubing.

"Hahahaha!"

Accompanied by the eerie cold laughter of the man, the brilliance of the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp enveloped Qin Yubing. Zhong Ming immediately leaped in front of Qin Yubing, channeled his Genuine Qi, and wanted to fight with it once. The counterattack this time was extremely dangerous. After all, for a top tier magical equipment with the choice of spiritual nature, if he failed, then he would naturally become its sacrifice.

However, because it had not chosen him before, Zhong Ming hoped that with his current level of strength, he was barely able to contend against it.

At this moment, Zhong Ming's palms were moving in a ring motion. Immediately, the Genuine Qi on Zhong Ming's body burst forth, and the surrounding Genuine Qi became excited, to the point that one could see the brilliance formed from the Genuine Qi.

"Impossible!" The man mumbled to himself as he stared at the scene in front of him.

How could a young man in his twenties possibly cultivate until spiritual energy was formed?

But wasn't the one in front of him?

A normal Spiritual Energy would not be able to see it, even if it was at its current level, it would not be able to see its brilliance.

The boy in front of him, on the other hand, enveloped Zhong Ming like the brilliance produced by a Spiritual Energy, as if he was only gathering his potential and waiting for the moment to happen.

Most of the cultivators on Earth were martial cultivators, and most of them were Spiritual Energy that were cultivated using spiritual energy. And to be able to become a Spiritual Energy, he had to at least be at the Sky Martial level.

On the other hand, Zhong Ming was a Genuine Qi that cultivated using spiritual energy. Usually, only when the light was very weak, or when someone was in a special situation, would it be discovered.

However, the sight in front of him frightened the man inside the stone wall.

Although the Genuine Qi around Zhong Ming had all circulated to form a ball, Zhong Ming could clearly feel that his own Genuine Qi was not strong enough to resist against the Soul Refining Lamp.

Zhong Ming was currently fighting with his life on the line. If he won, he would save the person inside, and if he loses, he would even throw away his life.

"Huuu ~ ~ ~"

Zhong Ming activated his Genuine Qi and directly smashed towards its light pillar. The Soul Refining Lamp trembled slightly, as if it had stopped for a moment, but then the light became brighter. Zhong Ming only felt himself being sucked in by a strong suction force, and it was hard for him to pull back. Meanwhile, the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp was still shining brightly.

"Haha — You overestimate yourself!" The man came out from the stone wall and looked at the scene before him. It was as if his entire body had been set ablaze.

"I really don't mind refining one more!" "Hahahaha …" The entire tomb was filled with the laughter of the men. It was unpleasant to smell.

"Zhong Ming —" Qin Yubing was still completely awake at this moment. She saw that Zhong Ming had also fallen into danger because he had saved her, and the pain from hearing those words immediately gushed into her heart.

She didn't wish for Zhong Ming to die with her.

"Big bro —" Zhong Ling also anxiously looked at the scene in front of her. Although he couldn't understand what was happening, she still felt a sense of familiarity with this scene. It seemed as if his brother had risked his life to save him like he was now.

The scene before him seemed to have truly happened.

I can't remember --

Zhong Ming felt that his Genuine Qi was wrapped in an evil energy, it couldn't hurt his Soul Refining Lamp in the slightest, and was instead closed in on him step by step, while a large amount of his Genuine Qi was also devoured. It seemed that the outcome of today's battle was out, and he was not its match after all.

Towards someone like Zhong Ming, she had long since been indifferent towards life and death, it was just that she did not keep her promise, and did not take good care of the person she had to protect.

"Bang ~ ~ ~"

Zhong Ming had already given up at this point because there was still a huge gap between him and this evil Soul Refining Lamp.

However, just as everyone was in despair, they heard a violent explosion. The white light in front of them seemed to explode, blinding everyone. He only felt that his vision had turned white, and he could no longer see anything.

When the light dimmed again, he saw a kitten-like animal standing in front of the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp in a battle posture.

From the looks of it, the blinding white light was the result of it colliding with the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp.

At this time, the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp in the sky slowly lost its light and dimmed. It then returned to its original state, falling to the ground with a crash.

When the kitten-like little thing saw the scene in front of it, it finally relaxed its posture and put away the exposed claws. It then leisurely sat on the ground and licked its claws.

"What the hell is this?" The man was already shocked by the small animal in front of him. Once a magical equipment like the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp was activated, if he wanted to stop, the opponent would at least have the strength of a Human Level 9.

And now, the little snow-white animal in front of him was able to do it?

What was going on?

The man practiced the demonic path and had increased his lifespan by quite a few years. In his limited lifespan, he had never seen a creature as domineering as the one in front of him. Even humans had never seen someone with such a cultivation.

Oh my god!

Qin Yubing and Zhong Ling felt that the kitten in front of them looked a little familiar. Was it the kitten that Zhong Ming kept in his collar all day?

It was indeed very small, but was that beam of light coming out from it? It was too bright to see clearly.

The Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp was once again sealed, and Zhong Ming had already resolved the crisis.

Just then, it had been extremely dangerous. In just an instant, he had become the sacrifice of this evil artifact.

"Little White?"

Zhong Ming stretched his limbs, and then called out to the kitten.

Only then did the little kitten stop cleaning up its fur and claws. It raised its head and glanced at Zhong Ming. Then, he proudly walked towards Zhong Ming, and waited for Zhong Ming to pick him up.

No wonder Lil 'White always had a very proud look on his face.

Eating jade was a small matter, but the key point was that its' big brother 'status wasn't something that it came here for nothing.

If not for Little White's unique sealing ability that allowed it to guard the Spirit Beast, Zhong Ming would not be here today.

Many Guardian Beasts, including Wanxiang Divine Beasts, had innate sealing abilities. Otherwise, once their magic tools were unsealed, it would be very troublesome. This was rather difficult for normal cultivators. What kind of level would one have to reach to be able to achieve this? However, to Lil 'White, it was indeed a natural ability.

"Thank you, Little White. I didn't buy the jade for you for nothing during this period of time!" Zhong Ming rubbed his hands on Little White's head excitedly.

Xiao Bai still looked proud, but it still snuck into Zhong Ming's collar, brimming with joy.

The man looked at Zhong Ming. At this time, he saw that Zhong Ming's eyes were filled with more than just shock or reverence. It was as if he had seen a monster.

Humans were already heaven-defying, but who would have thought that pets were even more so!

Are they letting me live?

Seeing that the Nine-time Soul Refining Lamp was sealed again, Qin Yubing and Zhong Ling immediately let out a long sigh.

The man's fingertip lightly twisted, and a wisp of golden powder was directly blown into the air. He then began to mutter an incantation.

At this moment, the only sound that could be heard was that of a tremor in the surroundings.

He raised his head and saw that countless undeads had climbed into the room through the hole in the wall.

A hundred li of walking corpses?

Zhong Ming was shocked, this should be the undeads that the man had planted in his own villa, those undeads that were growing on their heads, relying on the replenishment of the Sun Moon Essence to grow.

Right now, he was at the bottom of the villa, and these evil beings were all nearby.

The reason why the man summoned them was to kill Zhong Ming and everyone else present.

Zhong Ming's strength was too heaven-defying. If he wanted to escape, he could only use his trump card.

These walking corpses, the man had just become the first batch of pets that the ghost cultivator had started with. After that, many of them had been killed in battle. And only these precious bones were kept by the man. He would carry them wherever he went.

After so many years of refining and supplying, these guys already had quite the strength. Compared to the normal undeads, they had the ability to fight one against a hundred. Killing a man with a single step, leaving no room for anything within a hundred miles. This was the origin of Baili Xinghe's corpse.

At this moment, it would be difficult for him to bring the two girls away from so many corpses.

Zhong Ming took the chance before the undead even reached him, and directly jumped towards the man.

'Bang! '

The man was admiring the cruel side of the Hundred Miles Corpse that he had nurtured for so many years. He was completely unprepared for Zhong Ming's sudden attack.

With a kick, Zhong Ming was sent flying onto the stone wall at the side. Zhong Ming stepped forward and grabbed onto the man's throat with one hand, and immediately raised him up.

"I'll give you five seconds to make them disappear!"

Zhong Ming's cold voice sounded in the man's ears.

The man's eyes were completely red, he struggled with all the strength he had, but no matter what, he could not escape Zhong Ming's grasp. Zhong Ming's hand was like the demonic claw of the god of death. Even though he was a ghost cultivator, he still felt that death was very close to him in an instant.

"Two more seconds!" Zhong Ming's voice was very light, but at this moment, it sounded like a talisman on the verge of death.

A spectral cultivator's attack power was originally very weak, and all attacks were accomplished by relying on the Ghost Pet, unless it was a ghost cultivator of an exceptionally high level. Without a Ghost Pet, ghost cultivators at the same level instantly turned to dregs in an instant. Just like the abnormal Zhong Ming, with a few simple moves, he had already caused the zombies in the cave to all lose their fighting capabilities, causing the man to instantly lose his sense of direction.

Furthermore, the man was already injured by Zhong Ming, so his fighting strength was even more difficult to contend against.

At this time, Zhong Ming had gathered his Genuine Qi into his hands, and for a moment, his fighting strength was enough to completely crush his entire body.

"Clap clap ~ ~"

The man struggled to snap his fingers, and all the zombies were knocked to the ground like puppets.
