Half a month later, on Zhiling Island, businessmen and travelers from all over the world came and went, and the place was bustling with people.

After many years of continuous efforts by the disciples of the Jixiang Sect, it has been built into a large-scale Xiangshi branch in the East China Sea. The common people were relocated and scattered cultivators were gathered here, and the mountain gate of the Yanxia Gate was built here.

Since other places had suffered, the casual cultivators in the wild rivers and lakes, as well as the East China Sea monks from powerful families and small sects had nowhere to go and could only rely on this to develop their own careers, so they quickly became the leaders of the Changkonghai Immortal World.

center.

Comparing the scene before the war with the scene now, it makes people feel more prosperous.

This day was the fair day in the market here, and monks from all over the world came as usual to ask questions about immortals, and to exchange knowledge and knowledge.

At this moment, carriages loaded with huge boxes drove out from the largest warehouse in Fang City and headed in all directions.

Seeing the rumbling carriages and horses, and the accompanying guards shouting and cheering, everyone couldn't help but guess what kind of treasure it might contain.

But I heard that the insider laughed loudly: "It's just the requiem incense that will be used in the great ceremony of the afterlife. It will be distributed to various places for use."

Someone asked out of curiosity: "What are the funeral offerings and requiem incense?"

An insider said: "Haven't you heard that Lord Jixiang from Beihai came to this town? Seeing that the people's livelihood here was in decline and the ghosts were everywhere, he intended to hold a great funeral ceremony to appease them, in order to protect the environment and the people, and quell their resentments."

At that moment, someone said with emotion: "This is a good deed of evil deeds. Those lonely ghosts who have knowledge should be grateful that they can save a small life."

Some people were not very satisfied: "How can we appease those lonely ghosts? Since they have all degenerated into ghosts, they should all be eliminated."

"Yes, if you keep them here, they will become a problem in the future, and they will definitely be a serious problem."

"Fellow Taoist, this is said lightly. In the past few decades, there have been repeated wars. Not only the Changkong Sea, but also the entire East China Sea has been severely damaged. Except for those who have long since lost their souls, or have been detained by evil ways, or have been buried in evil places.

The number of other lonely ghosts wandering around is probably several times greater than the number of living people, so it is not that easy to eliminate them."

"Yes, even if there is any powerful master who is willing to take action regardless of cause and effect, they are not all gathered in one place waiting to be exterminated. In other words, they are the only ones who are willing to come out and make peace with the Immortal Sect like Zhenjun Jixiang.

Only then can we call on our disciples to share the cause and effect and accomplish this matter."

People in Cao Mang also understand the principle that blocking is worse than spacing out, and they quite approve of Li Zhen's concept of controlling ghosts.

At this moment, on Zhiling Island, in a spiritual peak valley on the eastern seaboard, there is a specially opened Jiao Sacrifice Dojo where spiritual formations and altars are being deployed.

This place is full of spiritual energy and evil spirits. It is a traditional geomantic treasure place for the burial of souls. A group of monks wearing robes gathered here, watching the incense disciples deploying incense formations one after another.

The route leads from the city to the large altar in the center of the valley.

Several other cities in the Changkong Sea are also making similar preparations.

Within the sphere of influence controlled by the Yanxia Sect, one city after another went all out to refine new incense, and distributed it to various places with the help of a developed commercial network. Then, they set up cases for sacrifices on the roads outside the human settlements, and guided them all the way to the barren mountains.

Wild ridges are natural yin-nurturing places everywhere.

There are also large altars for rebirth and monks from all walks of life gathered there to prepare for any eventuality.

As the new head of the Yanxia Sect, Zhang San also participated in this event held in the name of the sect and was personally responsible for the altar on the eastern seaside of Zhiling Island.

At noon, when the appointed time arrived, the disciples, stewards, and elders were all in place. He personally announced: "The time has come, and the great feast for the afterlife has begun. Heaven will bless you, and your soul will rest in peace!"

The large altar is about three feet high and divided into nine levels. Each disciple of the Jixiang Sect wearing a brand-new Taoist robe holds a banner and recites a mantra. Like the chanting mantra of rebirth, it is broadcast to all directions under the urging of the mysterious sound blessed by the technique.

As the magic circle increased, word spread, resounding throughout the sky.

"The Supreme Lord's decree transcends your lonely soul, all ghosts and ghosts, and is blessed by the four lives..."

The gongs and drums are noisy, and the bells are ringing.

"He who has a head will surpass him, he who has no head will rise, he will kill with a spear or a knife, he will jump on a diving rope..."

All the cultivators were silent, and the people paid homage.

"Death openly and secretly, death due to wrongdoing, creditor and enemy, life-seeking son-in-law..."

Immediately afterwards, incense sticks were lit in one venue after another.

As the bonfire was blazing, the huge Zhiling Island was in flames, and the mighty torrent of fragrance filled all directions along with the thick smoke clouds.

The fragrance filled the area for dozens of miles, and then quickly spread hundreds or thousands of miles away like a prairie fire.

"Kneel down in front of my stage, let the Eight Diagrams shine, stand up, and transcend to other places..."

Outside of the ceremony venue, large and small incense tables and altars were set up everywhere, regardless of the immortals. At the appointed time, all the incense for requiem and death was burned. Even if the quantity was not enough, the incense of Xinling and Shengxiaoling were burned.

Use incense and other ingredients together.

After careful calculation, Li Zhen believed that the incense of similar properties would not affect the effect of the offering, but would greatly increase its scale.

As a result, these incense sticks were burned one after another outside Zhiling Island and everywhere in the Changkong Sea.

Some people offer sacrifices to their relatives and friends, and sincerely wish them a happy life with knowledge.

Some people do this to drive away lonely ghosts and evil spirits, hoping that they will not come to disturb the people and harm their lives.

Some people do it to pray for blessings and prevent disasters, to do good deeds, to accumulate some virtue for themselves and their descendants, and to please the monsters and monsters that wander around.

There are many kinds of wishes, but they are all turned into firewood under the guidance of the same ritual rules, constantly urging those fragrances to spread across the world.

A monk raised his eyes and looked around, only to see the two auras of black and white mixed around him. The torrent of incense, which represented the pure spirit and righteousness, and the sinister resentment, which represented the evil and evil, were intertwined. They were gradually neutralized and turned into gray mist.

The sky dimmed, and figures one after another appeared from the void.

These figures are the lonely ghosts transformed by the dead souls wandering all over the Long Sky Sea. Some of the souls have disintegrated and turned into non-human forms. The mist of spiritual accumulation is everywhere, and then they are inspired by all kinds of vicious and evil gases.

And reorganize.

There are wounds from swords and guns, beheadings and limbs, burials in flooded soil, ulcers and swelling, sores due to long-term illness, sores and pus...

Lonely ghosts with various images and temperaments, some with green faces and fangs, some hideous and terrifying, some twisted and weird, or some ferocious and violent, quietly appear under the influence of these fragrances, just like the victims of a great famine in the mortal world, constantly following the path.

They went along the route of offering sacrifices and competed to eat the food.

"As a man or a woman, you are responsible for your own responsibility. Whether you are rich or poor, it is up to you..."

These souls have no intelligence at all, but are condensed from the remnant souls that are missing three souls and seven souls, and have no memory of past lives. With this incense, the vicious, evil and filthy atmosphere is gradually reversed.

Just like the evil spirits that turned into gray mist, the greed, anger, stupidity and resentment that built the ghost body were diluted a lot.

Some new ghosts with shallow moral practices even gradually became calmer and showed sincere satisfaction.

Their bodies were sore, swollen, and incomplete, showing the completeness of the three souls and seven souls, and they had also been transformed to a certain extent.

These ghosts are actually the condensed part of the greed, anger, stupidity and resentment in the emotions of intelligent beings. Even if they are good people in life, they are still human beings and have resentment, jealousy, anger, obsession and resentment and all kinds of negative emotions.

After death, the soul is incomplete, the spiritual intelligence is no longer present, and the malicious part emerges. The body is refined due to the evil spirits, and it turns into a ghost.

The purity of these evil spirits and evils is very high.

But at this moment, the fragrant soul neutralized the Yin evil spirits and strangely hindered the process of becoming a ghost.

Gu Zhun

"I'm here to save everyone, I'm in a hurry to be reborn, I'm here to save everyone, I'm in a hurry to be reborn..."

Along with the chanting of the mantra of the past life, the incense and aspiration power containing a large amount of people's emotions are injected into it, which also invisibly changes the nature of those ghosts.

…

"What's going on with this Jixiang Sect's Jiao Sacrifice Ceremony? Can it really affect the process of ghost transformation?"

"No, those ghosts are a little out of control!"

"If they inhale too much incense, they will be infused with some of the people's wishes to offset their greed, anger, stupidity and resentment..."

While the Jiao sacrifices were being held everywhere, the disciples of the Ming Sect and the masters of the evil ways who were hiding in the dark naturally noticed this phenomenon.

Especially those who were ordered to guard the ghosts were even more surprised to find that the formed and unformed ghosts were undergoing unexpected changes.

Even the entire Changkong Sea is changing accordingly.

The East China Sea is a vast sea, but in terms of land area, it is actually not very large.

Li Zhen saw this clearly and set up Jiao Festival dojos on various islands and held incense-burning rituals. This effectively covered the places where lonely souls and wild ghosts might be hidden, and the few places that were missed were infected.

There is absolutely no existence here that can immediately deal with ghosts and make them disappear.

Even the Xinling Xiangxiangpo and Shengxiao Lingxiangxiangpo, which can effectively feed ghosts and make them eliminate their hostility and no longer crave flesh and blood and souls, are diluted by various mortal incense.

However, the scale is large enough, and it has affected the entire world. Everywhere you look, the boundless sky is enveloped by these fragrant torrents.

In fact, a large amount of fragrant soul followed the natural flow of the great avenue of heaven and earth and seeped into the dirty soil of the underworld.

At this moment, in some places where the two worlds meet, there are corpses and demons watching a large amount of fragrant soul flowing in like a clear spring.

They instinctively sensed a trace of spiritual energy contained in it, and started frantically fighting over it like hungry victims fighting for food.

But gradually, I became full again, and became contented, and even my resentment and resentment disappeared a little.

The master of the Ming Sect reacted immediately. Several rays of light rose up from the filthy soil, and the escaping light flew rapidly to the place where the fragrant soul leaked.

One of them is a woman wearing a moon-white robe, with a graceful figure and skin as smooth as gelatin.

At first glance, she looks as graceful and moving as those fairies from well-known and upright families in the world of immortality.

But the person's head was actually filled with white bones, and inside the sunken skull eye sockets, a pair of faint red lights flashed, like lamp flames living in them.

The other one is a burly Yaksha with a green face and fangs, covered in green and red lines, like a monster, standing about ten feet tall, and carrying a steel fork.

The other one was an old corpse monster whose whole body was swollen and ulcerated like a rotting corpse, and maggots could even be seen crawling among the rotting flesh from time to time.
