*Roar*

The ferocious ghost tried to struggle once Ling Yun's devil soul started to absorb it, and it tried to use its hands to hit it.

*Slash...slash...*

However, Ling Yun immediately slashed his chaos dragon scythe as soon as the ferocious ghost wanted to smash his devil soul, and he cut off both of its arms clean. "Mom, increase your light qi to suppress it, and you too, Tian Hu."

Yi Mingxia, qingling pagoda and grail, continued to cast her light qi towards the ferocious ghost.

The white fox figure behind Ling Yu'er immediately moved, and her two claws pressed down on the ferocious ghost as its light blue eyes stared at it with disdain.

Even so, the ferocious ghost continued to roar and struggle to escape their pressure, but the two women continued to increase the intensity of their light qi.

Besides, Xiao Xiao used her ice qi to freeze the ferocious ghost's head, especially since its roar was disturbing to hear.

Zhou Yu suddenly moved beside them. "Yushen's purifying formation is indeed strong, and it weakens this ferocious ghost greatly, or else you guys wouldn't be able to defeat it this fast."

"That's true." Ling Yun then turned to the ghost villagers, and their numbers continued to decrease due to the effects of the formation. "Do you think they can enter the circle of reincarnation?"

Zhou Yu shook her head. "Unfortunately, they have been under the control of this ferocious ghost for too long, and some of them also have heavy past sins, so not all of them will be able to reincarnate."

Yi Mingxia then asked her. "What will happen to them if they can't enter the circle of reincarnation?"

"Their souls will completely vanish from this universe."

Yi Mingxia and the others couldn't help but sigh after hearing that, but they always believed there was karma behind their every action, regardless of whether it was good or bad.

Meanwhile, Yun Gongzhu and Tian Yueling continued to observe Ling Yun's devil soul, who seemed to enjoy absorbing the ferocious ghost.

"Hey, Mo Chen! Does this mean you have two souls?"

Ling Yun answered Yun Gongzhu's question by summoning his light soul, which was completely contradictory to his devil soul, as it glowed flawless white.

Yun Gongzhu shook her head after she saw that. "Your two souls amaze me even more, and you are probably the only cultivator who has two souls in this universe."

"You're wrong about that, little girl." Zhou Yu said this to her. "Cultivators with two souls are not that rare, and there are quite a lot of them in these upper realms, but there are even more of them in the supreme realm."

"Is that true?"

"Why would I lie to you? Even Tian Huang has two souls, but he never showed it to anyone, or else he wouldn't be able to become the strongest in this realm."

"Huh?" Tian Yueling's jaw dropped because of that.

"You can ask him later if you don't believe me."

After some time, Zhiyu Yushen approached them after the ghosts of the villagers had disappeared completely, but the ferocious ghost was still there, and Ling Yun's devil soul still hadn't finished absorbing it. "I think you should stop that, and we should destroy that ghost directly, or your devil soul will be superior to your light soul, which will be detrimental to yourself."

"Yeah, you're right." Ling Yun answered with a soft sigh as he himself also realized that his devil soul was superior to his other nine souls, so he immediately retracted it into his body again.

After that, Zhiyu Yushen threw several light needles into the ferocious ghost's body, which stuck there and shone, and its body quickly faded before disappearing completely. "Sigh, now everything is settled, and the mystery of the deaths of these villagers is finally solved. However, we still have to check several other villages that were also victims of those heretic cultivators, and we also have to purify their ghosts."

"That would waste a lot of our time, and we don't have much time for that right now." After she said that, Zhou Yu disappeared and went to the cave on the hill, and she directly moved the demonic corpse tree to the forest in Yunlong Zuzhai.

"Where did she go?"

"Zhou Yu is moving the tree to our residence." Ling Yun then turned to Zhiyu Yushen. "For the other villages, we will purify their ghosts after we return from the ancient garden, and we must leave as soon as she returns here, or we will have to face those heretics."

Zhiyu Yushen nodded understandingly. "All right, we will leave immediately after she returns, as it is impossible for you to fight those heretics, and we also don't know their numbers, so we don't need to take risks."

"Let's go now; those heretics will be here soon." Zhou Yu said as she reappeared in front of them, and she immediately brought them to board the Icarus. Besides, she also opened a void portal and asked Ling Yun to fly it in so that the heretics would not be able to find their traces.

Just as she expected, two black figures appeared in the cave, and their expressions were really bad after they couldn't find the demonic corpse tree inside.

"What happened here? How did the tree disappear?" One of the figures asked, and her voice gave away that she was a woman.

"I don't know." The other figure replied as he shook his head, and he then tried to check Ling Yun and the others' qi residue. However, Zhou Yu was an experienced cultivator, and she had removed everything to trick them, so he couldn't feel anything. "This is weird; I can't find any trace of the person who stole our tree."

"Hmm?" The woman frowned and used her senses to check the entire village area, but she couldn't find any trace of them either. "How could the culprit disappear so quickly?"

"I don't have an answer for that." The man fell into thought for some time. "Perhaps the culprit is related to the person who cured Tian Yueling, but the others still haven't managed to find out that person's identity, especially since Tian Huang and the others strictly guard their clan, and our spies can't infiltrate there anymore."

"I still can't believe there was someone who managed to discover the Gu and Xing clan's actions, and that person could even free Tian Yueling from their techniques." The woman then said to her colleague. "Since our plans in this village have failed, it would be better if we went to other villages, and we had to ask them to send additional people to monitor everything."

The man nodded and contacted several people. "Let's go now."

Meanwhile, Ling Yun and the others had already arrived in the western part of the Sky Cloud Realm, but the area was shrouded in extremely thick fog, and they could also hear the voices of various beasts from within the fog.

"So what are we going to do now? Are we going to go straight in?" Tian Yueling asked them.

Zhou Yu shook her head at Tian Yueling. "It's already too late, and this fog also limits our senses; I can't even see too far inside, so it would be better if we rested here first."

"I agree with her." Zhiyu Yushen then told them. "I had gone to the Ancient Garden once, but the fog wasn't as thick as it is now, and I had quite a hard time getting there before, especially since there were too many formations in this fog, which restricted our movement and communication. Besides, those unique beasts are also very cunning and strong, and it seems like there are a lot of things changing inside, so it would be better if we waited for morning."

Ling Yun unhesitatingly agreed with the two of them, as his map also couldn't detect the area within the fog. 'Hey, Xiao Yin! Can you map the inside area?'

[Unfortunately, I can't do it, Master. The formations within the mist seem to have been deliberately set up by ancient cultivators to protect the ancient garden, and I also couldn't find any information about them in my database.]

Ling Yun let out a heavy sigh after hearing that. "All right, let's rest first, and we will enter this mist after sunrise."

Suddenly, Ling Yu'er pulled Ling Yun to go with her, but the one controlling her body was Tian Hu. "Master, it's been too long since I last controlled this body, so I want to dual cultivate with you now."

Ling Yun smiled bitterly at that, but he immediately followed Ling Yu'er, and his other wives chose to let them be.

"Almost a year since we first met, right?"

"Yes! However, you never allowed Yu'er to switch places with me, so I feel lonely."

"All right, I will satisfy you tonight."

"Haha."

While they were dual-cultivating, a figure watched them from within the mist, and the figure's expression looked elated, looking at Ling Yun. "My sister is right; he is indeed a beast, but that celestial nine-tailed fox is pitiful, and she had to depend on her host for quite a long time before she could reshape his body. Hmm? Should I meet him now? His cultivation has reached the upper king realm now, so I can help him unlock the sixth seal on his bloodline. Sigh, forget it; I want to see whether he can pass through this mist or not first."
