This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 388: Chapter 267: Gunshots in the Mysterious Building!

A group of Yin spirits and ghosts hesitated somewhat.

The third floor was just within reach.

However, their gaze flickered with a wary look.

One of the hanged ghosts, with its tongue sticking out long and slurred speech said, “It’s not possible, the ghosts on the third floor are too powerful, we can’t get up there. Especially those foreign ghosts, each of them is a fierce ghost killer, going up there will only lead to certain death!”

Foreign ghosts?

Earlier at the barbecue stall, Xu Yang heard the girl with glasses and her friends mention someone named “Li Gang” who came out of the haunted building and was mentally unstable, constantly begging for mercy, saying, “Tàijūn, spare my life.” Now hearing more about these “foreign ghosts” from these Yin spirits, Xu Yang couldn’t help but be intrigued.

Could it be…

That the ghosts causing trouble in this haunted building are not from Da Xia?

Righteous indignation filled him at this thought as he shouted, “Damn it! How can my great Da Xia let a few foreign ghosts have their way here?”

He continued: “Brothers, just now that human is an Extremely Yin Body. As long as we devour him, all of us… all of us ghosts can be promoted to red-robed ghosts and maybe even have the chance to transform into Ghost Kings. At that point, will we still need to fear those foreign ghosts?”

“What?”

“Extremely Yin Body?”

The numerous ghosts’ eyes sparkled with greed, and one of them drooled profusely, saying, “No wonder every time I saw that chubby little black guy, I had the urge to bite him… But those foreign ghosts have guns!”

My goodness!

Xu Yang was dumbfounded.

Was it really so hard to try to fool these ghostly spirits into going up and scare them together later?

Moreover, you guys are a bunch of ghosts. Can’t you be a little more daring?

“What’s the big deal with guns?”

Xu Yang said, “They have them, so do we!”

All fear stems from a lack of firepower!

Xu Yang knew this truth, and he promptly gathered the group of ghosts. As he asked for their names and birthdates expressed by eight characters, he took out weapons such as AK47s, pineapple grenades, rocket launchers, and high-explosive grenades from his storage space and handed one to each of the ghosts.

The group of ghosts was dumbfounded.

Without waiting for them to react, Xu Yang took the lead and charged onto the third floor.

“Brothers!”

“Charge!”

“With guns in hand, follow me!”

As soon as his foot landed on the third floor, the scene before his eyes changed dramatically!

The dark corridor and the abandoned haunted building vanished, replaced by a gloomy sky and a bloodred earth.

In the air, the smell of gunpowder filled the atmosphere as the sounds of gunfire and artillery thundered all around.

A city bombarded by artillery fire entered Xu Yang’s “vision.”

“Illusion!”

With Xu Yang’s current primordial spirit strength, such an illusion could be shattered with a snap of his fingers. However, he did not break the environment, but instead looked carefully at the city that was undergoing the baptism of war.

“Is this…”

“Taiyuan City?”

“The Battle of Taiyuan?”

Little Japanese invaders had already breached the city, and the soldiers guarding it had suffered heavy casualties. The remaining soldiers fought fiercely against the little Japanese in alleyway battles.

Xu Yang knew the outcome of this war, as he had seen it in the history books.

It ultimately ended in defeat.

In this battle, the little Japanese invaders had invested 140,000 troops, with nearly 30,000 casualties. Da Xia had invested 280,000 troops, with over 100,000 casualties!

However, when this battle was reenacted in the form of an illusion, Xu Yang realized just how tragic the situation was at the time!

The streets and alleys were full of dead bodies.

The little Japanese invaders entered the city and indiscriminately finished off the corpses.

Gunshots could be heard all over the city.

Especially at the location of the haunted building on Wang Village’s Nánjiē, the street battle had been the most intense. A Da Xia squad held their position for nearly eight hours after the city fell, relying on their geographical advantage. The attacking Japanese soldiers’ corpses were piled up everywhere.

In the end…

The little Japanese had thrown incendiary bombs, burning the entire squad alive.

As time passed.

The little Japanese invaders were driven out of the city.

However, the bodies of these soldiers and the Japanese invaders were forever buried here…

The environment gradually faded.

Xu Yang’s eyes were filled with burning flames.

He had originally planned to play an elaborate game of hide-and-seek with the Yin spirits and malevolent beings in the haunted building, to gain more merit but at this moment, he had lost this mindset.

The Yin spirits and other ghostly beings that followed Xu Yang to the third floor also seemed to have experienced the illusion just now. They gritted their teeth and shouted angrily, “Brothers, let’s… let’s kill these little Japanese invaders and avenge our fallen comrades!”

Just then,

intense gunshots rang out from the depths of the dark corridor.

Xu Yang was surprised, “What’s going on? Did someone start the fire?”

A ghostly spirit said, “It should be the dozen or so ghost soldiers… They’ve fought with the Japanese ghosts many times over the years, but due to being weaker, they usually hide. Why did they take the initiative to attack today?”

“Could it be that they saw the human little black chubby being taken away by the little Japanese and that’s why they started the attack?”

“Brothers, let’s go together!”

“These ghost soldiers sacrificed themselves to protect their country and their people when they were alive, and they still protect the people of our great Da Xia even after death… On our great Da Xia’s land, can our Da Xia’s ghost soldiers still be bullied by these little ghosts?”

About thirty ghost spirits, with very little courage,

usually were too scared to come up to the third floor. freёwebnoѵel.com

But at this moment, they wielded weapons, howling and roaring as they rushed towards the depths of the corridor.

Xu Yang silently took out the large iron hammer and followed them from behind.

———-

Meanwhile,

outside the haunted building.

The director of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau’s Jin Province Branch had arrived with the bureau’s elite.

The crowd of violators had been evacuated to a distance.

The commotion, however, attracted many onlookers.

“Director Yang, what should we do?”

The bearded “Captain Su” said, “It’s been almost 20 minutes since they entered, and the Yin energy in the Ghost Building seems to be more active than before… In these years, such a situation has never occurred in the Ghost Building!”

The director of the Jin Province branch is surnamed Yang, called Yang Fan.

He seemed to be around forty years old.

However, his cultivation was not inferior to Chen Jingzhou of the Xi Xia Silver City branch, reaching the peak Grandmaster realm.

At this moment, Yang Fan’s facial expression showed deep concern.

He looked up at the Ghost Building.

With his cultivation level, he could sense it more clearly than Captain Su, who was only a “Half-step Grandmaster”!

The Yin energy that was constantly dissipating from the entire Ghost Building tonight seemed extraordinarily active, and a very intense breath seemed to be awakening… Yang Fan knew that this was the Ghost King in the Ghost Building about to recover!

As the person in charge of the Jin Province branch, Yang Fan had a deep understanding of that Ghost King…

Over a decade ago, the Ghost King had already reached the peak Ghost King level.

At that time, Minister Wang had entered the “Martial Arts Celestial Phenomenon Realm” for just a few years, and he personally went into the Ghost Building. However… he failed to eliminate that Ghost King!

However, after that, the Ghost King in the Ghost Building fell into a deep sleep.

Wang Hou once said that one day, if the Ghost King in the Ghost Building were to awaken from his slumber, it would be time for him to advance to a higher level, and the entire Ghost Building would transform into a Ghost Realm!

Moreover, the Ghost Realm was something that could grow.

If left unchecked and unattended, it could even engulf the entire Taiyuan City.

“Captain Su!”

“Captain Liu!”

Yang Fan called several elites from the bureau and instructed, “This matter is extraordinary. I must enter the Ghost Building to investigate… Give me half an hour. If I haven’t come out after half an hour, you must report this immediately. I’m afraid only Minister Wang can suppress the Ghost Building then!”

He was about to enter the Ghost Building.

However, at this moment…

There was a sudden outbreak of intense gunfire inside the Ghost Building.

In the pitch-black Ghost Building, there was a flash of fire, followed by loud yelling, “Brothers, charge, kill these little Japanese!”

Yang Fan: “…”

Onlookers: “…”

All the people outside the Ghost Building were dumbfounded.

Inside the Ghost Building, the gunfire became more and more intense.

Awkward yelling came out—

“Baga!”

“You Chinese people dare to resist?”

“Our great general has awakened… Once he appears, you will surely die!”

“Boom!”

“Baga… How can the Chinese people’s firepower be so fierce? Quickly flee to the fourth floor, fifth floor… General will protect us!”

“Master, save me…”

“Master, I have been working hard for the imperial army for so many years, with no merits but a lot of toil… Ah, I’m going to die, going to die, going to die…”

“Damn it!”

“You traitorous dog!”

There was more cursing: “Dog-like thing, you not only helped the Japanese harm the people of Da Xia in your lifetime, but even after death, you still work for the Japanese. How dare you deceive me!”

“Do you know my backing?”

“To tell you the truth… I, your great man, am the apprentice of King Biancheng, the ruler of the Sixth Hall of the Ten Halls of Yama in the Netherworld. My master is the messenger sent from the Netherworld to the human world. My buddy is the sect leader of Jingming Dao, the owner of Xi Xia Ghost Market, the future Heavenly Master, and the sworn brother of Lord Cui!”

Gradually.

The gunfire gradually subsided.

There were whispers coming from inside the Ghost Building.

Then, the sound of footsteps ensued.

Bang!

The sealed stone door on the first floor of the Ghost Building was blasted open.

When the dust settled.

Xu Yang, holding a big iron hammer, walked out.

Behind him was the valiant and mighty Ma Long, along with sixteen soldiers dressed in tattered uniforms, carrying guns, with bloody and dirty faces, as well as… thirty-four various Yin spirits and ghostly creatures!

“Supreme Sage Xu!”

Yang Fan was the first to react, stepping forward to greet him excitedly, “When did Supreme Sage Xu arrive in Taiyuan? Why didn’t you inform us?”

“Supreme Sage Xu!”

One by one, the members of the Jin Province branch stepped up to greet him.

Xu Yang clasped his fists to acknowledge them and then said, “Everyone, we’ll talk later… Though the troublesome little Japanese ghosts inside the Ghost Building have been dealt with, there’s still a big guy on the top floor.”

“All of you soldiers and ghost brothers, please step back a bit, don’t get hurt by my Daoist skills!”

Boom!

At this moment, the entire Ghost Building suddenly shook violently.

Inside the Ghost Building, an overwhelmingly powerful aura was rapidly awakening!

For a time, the Yin wind blew, and the Yin energy in the sky above the entire Ghost Building faintly showed blood color, forming a huge blood cloud in the sky. In that blood cloud, there was a hideous face!

Suddenly.

The blood cloud fell and was absorbed into the Ghost Building.

Inside the Ghost Building, a ghostly figure appeared on the top floor.

He was dressed in Japanese military uniform, wearing a military cap, with a samurai sword at his waist. He jumped down from the fifth floor and landed on the ground, emitting a very strong Yin energy. Greedily taking a breath of air, he said in awkward Chinese, “Yossi… The air in Da Xia now is not as good as it used to be.”

Clang!

Xu Yang’s palm turned, and the Bi Shui Sword entered his hand.

The imposing Great River sword aura erupted from his body, and with a single sword strike, he split the Japanese ghost officer in half, coldly saying, “Damn it! A newly promoted dog, how dare you show off in front of this Daoist Master?”

Xu Yang’s Great River sword aura, which was cultivated under a waterfall, was incredibly domineering, right?

Most importantly, in this sword strike, he also concealed the power of thunder, fire, and water from the three Grand Dao. With just one strike, the Japanese ghost officer who was split in half turned into a wisp of blue smoke and disappeared into the night sky.

The Yin energy that had enveloped the entire Ghost Building for decades quickly dispersed.

The wind that blew through the night sky became warmer.
