The cultivators who left outside the hospital, sit alongside their friend, and talk among one another while keep guarding the ghost enclosed inside the enchantment provide by the Daoist cultivator lead by Baiyun monastery. The monks present have started chanting their sutra. This ghosts really look like they are in trance, and it is truly eerie to see their vacant eyes only focused on the hospital building.
"What is happening inside the hospital. How long should we stand guard here you think," one of the Li clan cultivators asked out loud as they stand guarding one of the 4 corners of the protective enchantment. To be honest, none of them would know the exact answer. They all be in here because this has never happened before in their lifetime. They might have heard the legendary battle happened between cultivators and the last Ghost King about hundred years ago. But even that Ghost King could not command such a large number of ghosts. There are tens of thousands of ghost gathered here and the yin energy they release is so heavy that some of the cultivators with low cultivation could only stand far away from here.
Continuous exposure to Yin energy would not only be harmful to normal human but also to cultivators alike. Those with no strong foundation could face myriad of complications. That is why this matter have to be handled cautiously. The Buddhist monks keep enchanting sutra to clear the cultivators mind and Daoist priests also start disseminating protective talisman they have to the cultivators that guarding 4 corners of the protective enchantment. Some even start writing it on side, however writing talisman will require their inner energy and will tax the talisman writer. More powerful the talisman, more energy it will require when writing the talisman.
Li Yun only keep his silent ever since his elder uncle arrived and enter the hospital to join the fray with the respective masters. Li Tai had sent his instruction through his senior clan brother that they shall keep guard and help when it necessary. However, they shall give priority to their safety and those with low cultivation do not try do anything if something unexpected occur.
But as when nothing seems going to happened, the ghosts suddenly free from their trance and start screaming and wailing manically once again. Just like before they are all heading on toward the hospital and start try to breach the protective enchantment that surrounding them. The sound of their wailing, scream and shriek is so ear-splitting that it penetrates the entire surrounding.
"Move ! Those with low cultivation left the vicinity," someone voice could be heard giving command. Li Yun also does not tarry and asked his fellow clan to increase the guard and be prepared for anything. Daoist priest with them scrambled to strengthen the enchantment with their charm and reciting the mantra which would imbue their Yang energy onto it.
"What has happened ? Why these ghosts acting crazily," Li Yun senior clan brother asked with trepidation. There are tens of thousands of ghost inside that protective enchantment. The only silver lining in this situation is these ghosts all focusing their efforts to the Tonghua Hospital.
"What is that !" Someone suddenly exclaim out loud and they all look toward the hospital and the faces of the cultivators who can sense and see change abruptly.
Now, the once pristine and white hospital building is entirely enveloped by Yin energy so heavy that the tint greenish colour or the energy becoming so dark like night without moonlight or stars. The Yin energy is so heavy and concentrated its actually enveloped the city. Every cultivator's present feel such a heavy pressure fell onto them. Even the ghost cultivator that present among them could not withstand the massive Yin energy.
"This is so much. What happened in the hospital ? Did they provoke a ghost king ?!!" One of the old Daoist exclaimed with heavy expression. The ghost inside the enchantment start emitting heavy resentment that mingle with the Yin energy. This situation is far worse than they imagine. If this resentment left attended, it would create further problem.
One of the young Daoist that cover the protective enchantment lost his bearing and his face change pallid, blood trickled out from the orifices. It is not only him alone, but across the 4 corners of the enchantment all those Daoist that maintaining the protective enchantment with their Yang energy face the backlash cause by the rioting ghost inside the enchantment. It only needs few seconds for these tens of thousands of ghost to cause such damage to the Daoist cultivators. Other cultivators stationed in those corner start giving aid and help to the Daoist priest.
However, just like how it begins, the rampaging ghost ceased from moving or screaming abruptly. This is coincided when the massive amount of yin energy that released from the hospital building suddenly disappeared. Like there are some kind of switch that can be turn on and off, the Yin energy disappear and appear at will.
The cultivators whom in scrambled to face the sudden crisis all having the same incredulous face. They look those besides them that share similar dumbfounded expressions.
"What is freaking happened here ! What those old geezers are doing ?" One of the cultivator that known with his temper roared wildly. Zhang Yichen who has expended his energy in maintaining the focus point of the protective enchantment could not help but look at the hospital building with stunned face.
"There is something in that hospital that emanating that massive Yin energy. But what is that ? That Yin energy, it is so colossal, it cover entire city," an elder Baiyun priest that come with celestial master You remark. He also has similar astounded expressions as Zhang Yichen and the rest of the cultivator who can see and sense that massive amount of Yin energy.
"Someone with that amount of Yin energy, it is only one who born with Yin physique," others give their opinion. "Maybe it is a relic or ancient artifact but what kind of tool it is to spread massive yin energy. It must have soak with countless yin soul that contain yin essence to be able to emit such amount of energy," one of the ghost cultivator present speak his mind out loud. Though the practice sound horrendous but it is a true fact.
However, none of this cultivator actually know the exact happening inside the 1st premium wardroom on the fourth floor of Tonghua hospital.
An intense scuffle almost broke out in that wardroom when Cheng Jiayi released the King Yama protective talisman given to him by Yang Guang. Tantai Ying exclamation due of his shocked to see such massive amount of Yin energy released by Cheng Jiayi. He have never seen something like this before, even though he dabbled with ghost cultivation art his entire life.
However, just as soon as he said this, the old man ghost that has stay dormant all this time suddenly awaken from his trance and change into his ferocious ghost form, directly attacked Cheng Jiayi with his long sharps nail. The sudden change of the ghost surprising the old cultivators as it happened just in split second. Even their heightened sense and perception could not detect it.
Even Cheng Jiayi does not have the chance to scream his lung out like before when the old man ghost suddenly transformed and attacked him. Everything happened so sudden that those 'extraordinary old men' with all their expertise and higher cultivation could not do a single thing. They are still shocked to see the amount of yin energy released by Cheng Jiayi and wonder how this boy can still leisurely sit down and seem not even affected a little bit with it. Even them, the 'extraordinary old men' group with greater mastery feel the heavy pressure cause by the Yin energy and drive their conscious mind into vigilant. It is like not a 16-year-old teen that they are facing, but someone that is dangerous and highly threatening.
That is why no one notice the old man ghost released from his dormant state right the moment the Yin energy emanates from Cheng Jiayi hit him.
"Bang !"
But right in front of everyone eyes, the ghosts that attacking Cheng Jiayi send flying to the wall for the second time in the row. Yang Guang with his impassive face and icy cool persona pull the leg he use to send the ghost flying down with not so much change in his face. Cheng Jiayi look at him and clap with glee alongside Fushe that also done the same.
"Master, you are the best."
"Yang Guang, that is so cool."
"Huh !?" old Tantai Ying that taking out a red ropes out of nowhere look at the ferocious ghost that send flying to the wall nearby to him with a twitch of his eyes. Even others could not help but take a look at the ghost that now decorated the wardroom wall. That is definitely one hideous looking wall decoration that even one with avantgarde mind could not tolerate.
"Yang childe, you are so savage. You can hit this heavy ferocious ghost like it weights nothing. Your cultivation indeed the best among all the young cultivator in your generation," Tantai Ying walk toward the ghost and poke its' face with his finger and laugh uproariously before saying this. The ferocious ghost look at him and want to attack the old man but with adept hand, the red rope he held move and surrounded the old man ghost body like a snake. The rope tightened and the ferocious ghost struggle to free himself while growling and snarling toward Tantai Ying that only laughing gleefully.
The rest of the cultivators present agree with Tantai Ying word. That young Yang Guang definitely quite savage and truly a talented young cultivator. Their expression toward the young man also have change and now contain respect and not to mention a bit of envy. This young man only 16-year-old but already he show such a massive talent that no one inside this room could truly gauge. The Yang clan definitely has a hidden depth and immense foundation to continuously produce prodigy after prodigy in every generation.
"Benefactor Cheng, please hold the protective amulet back," master Hui Cheng hurriedly said this when he remembered tens of thousands of ghosts outside the hospital building. If one ghost reacting like that, how about tens of thousands of ghosts ?
Li Tai, Yang Yulin and the old Daoist, Rui Gang now that they are no longer in shocked run toward the window, and all can hear the sharp intake of breath from them as they witness what happened outside the hospital building. That wailing and screaming is not just for show, those ghosts are indeed act just as intense as the old man ghost.
"Guang Er hurry up give the amulet to the child," Yang Yulin remarks hurriedly.
Yang Guang does not wait any seconds longer and he put the amulet Cheng Jiayi released on the bed back into his hand. Cheng Jiayi instantly hold it. Just like that the immense amount of Yin energy he released is dispersed like it was never there before. The old cultivators when see it, find that the protective amulet must be extraordinary that it can masked such a colossal amount of Yin energy. Their eyes scrutinised old Yang patriarch that writing the talisman. This old fox had increased his cultivation. However, Yang Hong also feel shocked with the Yin energy release by Cheng Jiayi and the fact that the amulet written by Yang Guang capable of masking the energy. His grandson is indeed such a talented cultivator more than the rest of them.
"Hold it," Yang Guang remarks while looking at Cheng Jiayi with a worrisome mien. Why his Yin energy seems much larger than before ? He look at Fushe that also observing Cheng Jiayi. There is also a wonder in his eyes. To see that the colossal Yin energy emanates from Cheng Jiayi is now overwhelming. But there is another thing that attracting Fushe attention. Cheng Jiayi's Yang energy seems concentrating on the back of his left arm, like there is something there that make them focused to it.
Fushe look at Yang Guang and his eyes give a signal to take a look at the back of Cheng Jiayi left forearm. " Master, look at Cheng Jiayi left forearm," he remarks. Cheng Jiayi who is busy observing (fanboying) the tall, handsome Yang Guang within his mind startle with Fushe word.
His left forearm ? Isn't that where he discover that welt like protrusion. He know it, something must be wrong with that welt.
