Yellow Skinned Taoist Master

Chapter 43: The Mutated Deity Statue Appears Again

The evil entity didn't take a fancy to the geomancy divine plate because the geomancy divine plate was not enough to exchange for the Flying Immortal Token.

But it took a fancy to the black smoke on Chen Huangpi.

This made him very confused.

Because this black smoke was already extremely strange. He still had no way to control it, as if it had its own will.

And it seemed to devour everything, whether it was a living thing or a dead thing.

As long as it was stained with black smoke, even the true form would be devoured.

Twelfth Madam was a cultivator who had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. The next step was to become a god on the spot.

Her fighting experience was even more beyond Chen Huangpi's reach.

But just by being stained with a wisp of black smoke, she was forced to cut off her own hands and arms on the spot.

The demon tree was an even more terrifying disaster.But in front of the black smoke, Chen Huangpi had still cut off a large piece of its bark.

Although he had quickly said sorry, in short, if this evil entity wanted something else, Chen Huangpi might not be able to take it out.

But what it wanted was black smoke.

He really had as much as it wanted.

Chen Huangpi said tentatively, "My black smoke, I can't even control it myself. Can you take it away?"

The evil entity tilted its head, seeming to be lost in thought.

However, on its pale body, the originally closed cavity opened again, and Yi Qingzhou's Flying Immortal Token was floating in it.

Obviously, it was very willing to trade.

It was just that it was also pondering how to get the black smoke.

But the Soul-Hooking Ghost reminded, "Chen Huangpi, this evil entity is extraordinary. If it gets your black smoke, it will probably become even more terrifying."

Chen Huangpi replied, "It's okay. I think it's very easy to talk to. It should be like me, a good evil entity."

"Who cares if it's good or bad!"

The brass oil lamp said eagerly, "The Flying Immortal Token is more important. The black smoke has already polluted who knows how many deities. What's wrong with one more evil entity?"

It had always suspected that the many deities that the Pure Immortal Temple had worshipped before had mutated because they had been polluted by Chen Huangpi's black smoke and had been thrown out of Mount Yuqiong by the Temple Master.

Anyway, the mutated deity statue was definitely one of them.

Otherwise, how could they all be emitting black smoke?

The Soul-Hooking Ghost was speechless by the brass oil lamp's words.

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. Let alone an evil entity, what if a disaster got Chen Huangpi's black smoke?

Would it become a calamity?

Probably the moment it became a calamity, a Daoist-robed heavenly tribulation would go up and swallow it in one bite.

In these Hundred Thousand Mountains, what deities, what evil entities?

There was only an old Daoist and a young Daoist.

And at this time, the evil entity also seemed to have thought of a way to get the black smoke.

It just trembled all over.

The things in the countless cavities on its body all fell out.

All the cavities gathered together to form a larger hole. The hole seemed to have a certain demonic nature, making one's mind become addicted at a glance.

Seeing this, Chen Huangpi understood.

Then, he formed a sword finger, and a streak of sword qi containing a wisp of black smoke instantly entered the cavity.

The sword qi instantly collapsed.

A wisp of black smoke was quietly floating inside.

Chen Huangpi knew that as long as he had a thought, this wisp of black smoke could fly back.

However, if he did that, this evil entity would probably attack on the spot.

He was an honest person and couldn't do such a thing in front of others.

"Happy trading."

Chen Huangpi showed a kind smile and reached out to take the Flying Immortal Token in his hand.

As soon as he got it, he didn't notice anything strange.

It was just a little cold.

But the texture was not like jade, because jade was warm, while this Flying Immortal Token was extremely hard and could not be crushed at all.

Chen Huangpi put it away close to his body.

Seeing this, the evil entity tilted its head and moved all the things on the ground in front of Chen Huangpi with a wave of its hand.

"All this for me?"

The evil entity nodded.

It was much more honest than Chen Huangpi.

It would give as much as a wisp of black smoke was worth.

Even, it squatted down and checked the scattered things. Then, after hesitating for a moment, it stretched out its hands and took off the bamboo hat it was wearing.

"Even this for me?"

Chen Huangpi was surprised. He had never dreamed that a wisp of his black smoke could be exchanged for so many things.

And he had originally planned to recall the black smoke as soon as he left.

But this evil entity's sincerity really made him a little ashamed.

"I only gave you a wisp of black smoke, but you gave me so much. I will remember you. If I see you again in the future, I will still trade with you."

As Chen Huangpi spoke, he quickly put all the things into the Soul-Hooking Manual.

Although he didn't recognize which one was the Hundred Deaths and No Life Person, because there were several things that looked like people, the Soul-Hooking Ghost would definitely not be wrong.

It said it was inside, so it must be inside.

Seeing that Chen Huangpi had put away all the things, the evil entity nodded at him and then turned and left.

In place, Chen Huangpi waved at it. Looking at the bamboo hat with colorful cloth strips hanging down, it looked more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Perhaps this is what they call loving the house and its crow."

"This evil entity looks so friendly, even its bamboo hat is different."

"It's just a pity that it's a bit too big."

The bamboo hat that Chen Huangpi had gotten was a full meter wide. Although it was as if it weighed nothing in his hands with his strength, it was inconvenient after all, and he couldn't wear it on his head.

As soon as this thought arose, the next second, the bamboo hat suddenly shrank.

In the blink of an eye, it became just like an ordinary bamboo hat.

Chen Huangpi was overjoyed and put it on his head directly.

"It doesn't look good."

The brass oil lamp said, "You're wearing armor now, and you're wearing this bamboo hat. It looks strange no matter how you look at it. It's more stylish to wear it with a Daoist robe."

But as soon as its voice fell, the brass oil lamp suddenly exclaimed.

"Wait, you take off this bamboo hat first."

"What's wrong, Huang Er?"

Chen Huangpi took off the bamboo hat, feeling confused.

"Family, this bamboo hat is very strange."

The brass oil lamp said in surprise, "After you put it on, even I can't see your true face. It's as if even your true form has been covered."

"Isn't that great?"

Chen Huangpi was even more satisfied and insisted on wearing it on his head and refused to take it off.

And at this time, the Soul-Hooking Ghost's faint voice sounded.

"Contract master, I know you're very happy that you've made a profit, but if you don't leave now, you probably won't be able to."

"What do you mean?"

Chen Huangpi subconsciously turned his head to look.

He saw that at some point, he was already surrounded by large and small evil entities of various shapes and forms.

The evil entities were all staring at the black smoke on his body.

Their already ferocious and terrifying eyes were full of desire.

Then, one by one, they all stretched out their hands and took out all kinds of things.

Some even had nothing and just picked up a stone from the ground.

Chen Huangpi looked carefully.

The evil entities holding stones and leaves actually accounted for the majority.

Obviously, they all wanted to trade for a wisp of black smoke with Chen Huangpi.

But not every evil entity had many treasures on them.

It could also be garbage.

Chen Huangpi was furious, "You evil entities are so shameless. My black smoke didn't come from the wind. You want to trade for it with a broken stone? Get lost!"

As soon as he got angry, the black smoke on his body immediately rolled and swept.

All the evil entities retreated in horror.

They were unwilling to be stained by the black smoke.

"Hmph, you don't even dare to touch it, yet you dare to ask me for black smoke."

Chen Huangpi sneered and turned to leave.

The evil entities looked at me, and I looked at you.

The evil entity that had first picked up a stone from the ground to trade for black smoke followed without hesitation.

Seeing this, the other evil entities swarmed over.

Just like that, all the evil entities on the street followed behind Chen Huangpi like a tail.

At first glance, Chen Huangpi was like the leader of these evil entities.

The other evil entities were all his underlings who depended on his breath.

It could be said that he was as majestic as he could be.

"Stop following me!"

Chen Huangpi stopped angrily and said to the evil entities, "You are all so poor. I won't give you the black smoke."

But the evil entities did not speak, just stretched out their hands and handed him all kinds of messy things.

They only wanted black smoke.

They only wanted to barter.

Seeing so many evil entities, the brass oil lamp's scalp went numb.

"Chen Huangpi, if it's really not possible, then just give it to them. Anyway, they're a bunch of beggars. After we get rid of them, we can go back."

But Chen Huangpi refused, "If they want it, I'll give it to them. If other evil entities find out, won't they think my black smoke is cheap!"

"I'd rather throw my black smoke into the sea and bury it in the ground than let them take advantage of me!"

The brass oil lamp was helpless.

It knew Chen Huangpi best. He was usually easy to talk to, but in fact, he had a stubborn personality.

He would not easily go back on a decision he had made.

At this time, the Soul-Hooking Ghost suddenly said, "Contract master, a stone can't be exchanged for black smoke, but their lives can."

Hearing this, Chen Huangpi's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood.

He took out the Soul-Hooking Manual and glanced at these evil entities.

There were more than thirty in total.

"You want my black smoke, right?"

The evil entities nodded.

Chen Huangpi smiled, "Okay, then come and sign and seal one by one. The black smoke will be yours."

...

A moment later, the evil entities left with satisfaction.

Chen Huangpi looked at the Soul-Hooking Manual, which had been signed for more than thirty pages. There was not a single normal person's name on it, only handprints.

Even those without handprints had left some marks on it.

However, the Soul-Hooking Manual was not really based on names.

As long as you signed, it would match you.

This was a rule in the dark.

There was no room for fraud.

"Ah Gui, can you deal with these evil entities?"

As Chen Huangpi walked back, he chatted with the Soul-Hooking Ghost.

The Soul-Hooking Ghost said, "If it's in my current state, I can at most deal with one evil entity. But since they have signed and sealed, with the Soul-Hooking Manual, I can naturally slowly wear them down."

It also wanted to recover to its peak.

But there were really no people in these Hundred Thousand Mountains. Chen Huangpi didn't go out to kill, nor did he show great mercy and give away wealth.

He himself was a poor ghost.

Therefore, the Soul-Hooking Ghost simply set its sights on the evil entities.

It itself was not an evil entity.

But it had the ability to reap souls. That was given to it by the Soul-Hooking Manual, and it was even more powerful than Chen Huangpi had imagined.

And just at that moment, a stumbling voice suddenly sounded.

"The great, great evil god has arrived. Evil gods, make way. Be careful it doesn't eat you!"

The one who spoke was the big-headed evil entity.

It crawled on the ground, and a rumbling sound came from behind it.

It was so scared that it quickly dodged.

Then, in Chen Huangpi's eyes, a huge deity statue was reflected.

The deity statue was several tens of feet tall, its whole body was blue-black, and its head, which was like a tree crown, was covered in tumors. Its hands hung down, and there was a huge eye in each palm.

With every move, black smoke circled around its body.

Wherever it passed, the ground was scorched black.

It was the mutated deity statue that had been missing for a long time.

But at this time, the mutated deity statue's aura was very weak. There was a bottomless hole in its head, as if it had been forcefully chiseled open and the essence inside had been sucked dry.

The mutated deity statue had no facial features, only a large crack on its chest. That was its mouth. Its tongue was blood-red, and its fangs were intertwined. At this time, it was chewing on half of a deity's body.

Crunch, crunch...

As it chewed and swallowed the deity, its aura gradually recovered, and the large hole on its head also wriggled and recovered at an extremely slow speed.

Chen Huangpi didn't know what it had encountered in the days it had disappeared. He only knew that the moment it saw him, the chewing sound suddenly stopped.
