Chapter 27 The Ancestral Master Appears
Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Ancestral Master's Blessing
Liu Yu and the others were quite frightened by the sudden appearance of a voice and an old man in the mysterious temple.
The old man had white hair, but his eyes were bright and he exuded a mysterious aura.
"Please do not panic, everyone. I have been waiting for you here for a long time," the old man said slowly.
Liu Yu looked at him warily and asked, "Old man, why are you waiting for us here?"
The old man smiled slightly: "I know your predicament. Fahai is being aggressive, and you are looking for a way to resist him."
Bai Suzhen quickly bowed and said, "I hope you can enlighten me, senior."
The old man stroked his beard: "This temple contains an ancient manual that may be of some help to you."
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy.
Just as they were preparing to search for the secret manual, Fahai appeared again.
"Haha, let's see where you can run this time!" Fahai shouted.
Liu Yu glared angrily: "Fahai, you're like a persistent ghost!"
Fahai raised his staff: "Today I will surely wipe you all out in one fell swoop!"
The five ghosts immediately stood in front of the group, ready to fight.
Bai Fu shouted, "Fahai, with us here, you won't succeed!"
Fahai sneered: "You little brats?"
Tensions were high between the two sides, and a battle was imminent.
Just then, a strange light suddenly shone in the temple, and within the light, the figure of the Taoist patriarch slowly appeared.
Everyone was astonished and knelt down to pay their respects.
The patriarch solemnly declared, “Fahai, your obsession is too deep; you must not commit further acts of killing.”
When Fahai saw the Patriarch, he was startled, but still insisted, "Patriarch, this white snake is a demon and must be subdued."
The patriarch shook his head: "All things have a spirit. Bai Suzhen has already reformed and turned to good. You should not force her so hard."
Fahai wanted to argue, but the patriarch waved his sleeve, and a powerful force repelled Fahai.
"Thank you so much for saving us, Master!" Liu Yu and the others were moved to tears.
The patriarch looked at Liu Yu and said, "You have endured many hardships and turned your hearts toward the righteous path. This secret manual is hereby bestowed upon you."
As he spoke, a secret manual radiating golden light appeared in Liu Yu's hand.
The patriarch instructed: "Cultivate diligently and use this power to protect the righteous path."
After saying this, the patriarch's figure gradually disappeared.
Liu Yu and the others were overjoyed and quickly began to peruse the secret manual.
Xiaoqing exclaimed excitedly, "With this secret manual, we won't be afraid of Fahai anymore!"
However, mastering the secret manual is no easy task. The techniques within are profound and difficult to understand, requiring a great deal of effort and time.
During their cultivation, Liu Yu and the others encountered numerous difficulties. Sometimes, the practice would go awry, causing their internal energy to become disordered; other times, they would be disturbed by inner demons, plunging them into confusion and suffering.
But they never gave up, encouraging each other and working together to improve.
The five ghosts also put their individual strengths to use. Bai Fu was good at thinking and could often interpret some of the difficult problems in the secret manuals for everyone; Hei Feng, with his clever mind, came up with some unique cultivation methods; Huang Lu, Chi Sha, and Qing Xuan supervised each other during cultivation and made progress together.
Bai Suzhen and Liu Yu worked even harder, knowing full well the great responsibility they bore.
After a period of training, everyone's strength has significantly improved.
Just as they were about to continue their journey, Fahai arrived with a group of monks.
"Hmph, so what if you obtained the secret manual? Today I will make you pay with your lives!" Fahai said.
Liu Yu stepped forward: "Fahai, we are not afraid of you!"
Another fierce battle ensued.
Liu Yu unleashed a powerful spell learned from the secret manual, its light dazzling and its power astonishing. Bai Suzhen also employed a new technique, her water power surging even more fiercely.
The five ghosts worked together seamlessly, each displaying their unique abilities.
Fahai and his monks gradually found themselves at a disadvantage.
Fahai was secretly shocked: "They have become so powerful in such a short time!"
But he was unwilling to accept defeat and used his final trump card.
In an instant, the world changed color, and the winds and clouds surged.
Will Liu Yu and the others be able to withstand Fahai's ultimate move? What will their fate be?
