This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 273: 198: Soul out of the shell, have I turned into a ghost?



“????”


Lord Cui sent a string of question marks.


His mood at the moment was just like these question marks.


Dammit!


Did Xu Yang eat a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gallbladder?


How dare he be so audacious?


But being Lord Cui, being in a high position, holding the Book of Life and Death, and being a man of culture, he wouldn’t resort to swearing. So… he just ignored Xu Yang.


You little brat, you think that Fengdu City can’t function without you?


The Yin-Yang Path hasn’t been fully restored yet, but with my capabilities as Lord Cui, calling down a little bit of my power to the human world and finding a human collaborator is as simple as can be, right?


Xu Yang is still a youngster after all.


If I just leave him hanging, surely he’ll understand this logic.


So Lord Cui cut off contact with Xu Yang, summoned Wang Ergou, pointed to the numerous weapons in the center of the main hall, and asked, “Ergou, do you know how to use these weapons?”


Wang Ergou took a look.


Several assault rifles, and a military helicopter.


He replied, “Lord, these assault rifles are easy to use, anyone who can pull a trigger can do it. Plus, with regular practice, anyone can get good… but I’ve only ever seen a military helicopter in magazines.”


“Oh?”


Lord Cui asked, “This thing is called a military helicopter?”


“Yes.”


Wang Ergou, while he was alive, was something of a military enthusiast… Actually, in his era, which young man didn’t like these things?


The young people of that time took pride in being able to become soldiers and join the military forces, unlike the young people of today, who prefer singing, dancing, and making weird noises.


He looked at the military helicopter with excitement, pointed at the large-caliber gun barrel in front of the helicopter and said, “This is an onboard machine gun, much more powerful than those assault rifles. And these gun ports, might be the so-called aircraft guns, aerial rockets, air-dropped landmines and such.”


“Since that’s the case, you can figure out how to use this…”


Lord Cui gave the order, “Also, select a group of underworld soldiers from each department to train. Teach them how to use these hi-tech weapons from the human world…If you do a good job, I will reward you handsomely!”


Wang Ergou was overjoyed and immediately retreated.


Lord Cui was also in a good mood… Perhaps in no time, all the underworld soldiers in Fengdu City would be equipped with new weapons. By then, which of the many departments in the Underworld Palace could compare with Fengdu City?


In the human world.


Seeing that the command token wasn’t vibrating anymore, Xu Yang couldn’t help but laugh, “It seems that this Lord Cui has quite a temper.”


He said that and with a flip of his hand, he took the command token into his storage space, then stood up and laughed, “Well, let him cool down a bit. Once he realizes how important I am, he will come to me.”


Outside, the truck driver who delivered the toys saw that Xu Yang wasn’t unloading the goods after such a long time and couldn’t help but shout, “Boss, are you going to unload these goods or not? I am in a hurry to get some work done!”


Xu Yang glanced at Ma Xiaotiao. Ma Xiaotiao immediately realized what he meant and started to unload the goods.


The truck driver saw this and cursed, “What kind of boss are you? How can you let a kid do all the work? This kid looks underage… Boss, why are you giving me money?”


“To help me unload the goods?”


“Alright!”


The truckload of goods was all piled up on the second floor of the funeral shop by Xu Yang.


After the unloading was done, Xu Yang transferred the remaining fees to the toy store owner, and then picked a few weapons to bring back home.


When he got back home, he immediately called Ma Long.


Ma Long rushed to Xu Yang’s house and asked, “Old Xu, what’s the rush for calling me over?”


Xu Yang took out a toy gun and said, “Help me verify something. Burn this gun for my wife.”


“Which wife?”


“Any of them.”


“Damn!”


Does being polygamous make you great?


Ma Long grumbled while burning the gun for Yang Yin, but Yang Yin didn’t “receive” the gun.


Xu Yang took out another toy pistol and burned it himself.


Next moment, a Desert Eagle appeared in Yang Yin’s hand.


“Holy… Old Xu, what’s going on?”


Ma Long asked in bewilderment, “Why didn’t it work when I burned it, but when you burned it, it turned into a real gun?”


Having verified his idea once again, Xu Yang said cheerfully, “If it worked for anyone who burned it, then how could my uniqueness be demonstrated… Alright, Ma Long, the Ghost Market is opening tomorrow, go home and get ready. We’ll meet at the funeral shop at exactly 12 o’clock.”


After sending Ma Long away.


Seeing Liu Shishi, Yue Yuluo, and Yang Yin engrossed in their TV drama, Xu Yang returned to his room, sat cross-legged on his bed, and silently opened his attribute system panel.


[Name]: Xu Yang


[Age]: 22 years old


[Daoist Arts]: Divine Ascension Scripture


[Daoist Skills]: Fire Manipulation Skill (Entering Dao), Water Manipulation Skill (Entering Dao), Wulei Rules (Entering Dao), Paper Cutting Skill (Entering Dao), Earth Escape Skill, Dream Creation Skill (Entering Dao).


[Martial Arts]: Land Flight Skill (complete mastery), Soul Searching, Disguise Art, Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills (complete mastery).


[Cultivation]: Mid-Entering Dao Stage


[Daoist Artifacts]: Supreme Purification Seal (Dao artifact), giant iron hammer


[Merit Points]: 101,200


[Storage Space]: 100 cubic yards


Out of the six Daoist skills Xu Yang has cultivated, except for “Earth Escape Skill,” the others have all reached the “Entering Dao” level. Particularly for “Wulei Rules” and “Dream Creation Skill”, Xu Yang has invested the most energy, bringing them to an incredible level.


Now, he could generate thunder by a mere thought. His understanding of the Rules of the Thunderbolt has reached near the “Divine Transcendence Realm” when he fought against the Great Priest of Xuan Mountain Temple in Lintong County.


And let’s not mention the “Dream Creation Skill”.


From the Huishan Demon, he gained a 1000 times increase in “Dream Creation Skill+i”. If this skill could directly enhance Xu Yang’s comprehension of “Dao”, he would have already reached the Divine Transcendence Realm by this skill alone!


“My Dream Creation Skill still lacks a little bit,” he lamented.


“After all, setting up a haunted house to scare ghosts with drcams… no, providing those lovely ghosts with an unforgettable night requires realistic dreams. If the dreams are not realistic enough, where’s the surprise?”


He glanced at the[Merit Points].


Originally, Xu Yang’s merit points were close to 12. But in his quest to understand the essence of the sword, he spent more than twenty thousand merit points at once. He even upgraded the “Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills” to the “complete mastery” level.


As for his understanding of “the essence of the sword”?


It is slightly lesser than his understanding of the “Rules of the Thunderbolt”, but it’s stronger than other skills.


Later, Xu Yang visited the haunted house again and helped 58 souls at the welfare home to transition to their next life, gaining more merit points. So now he still has 101,200 merit points!


“I should use some of my merit points to enhance my cultivation. I’ve been stuck at the mid-Entering Dao stage for a very long time.”


Xu Yang thought to himself.


“Ding!”


“Merit Points -10,000.”


“Ding!”


“Merit Points -10,000.”


“Ding!”


“Merit Points -10,000.”


In succession, three system prompts sounded. Xu Yang felt as if the power derived from his merit points was expanding, his inner strength doubling instantly!


Xu Yang shuddered, looking at the five words “Late phase of Entering Dao” behind the[Cultivation]in his system attribute panel, he couldn’t help but feel moved.


“I met Liu Shishi in early June…”


“I guess it was around the middle of June when I started cultivating… Now, it’s been one and a half months.”


“Heaven rewards the diligent. My efforts over the past month and a half finally allowed me to reach the late-phase of the Entering Dao stage…”


“Next, I’ll focus on enhancing the Dream Creation Skill!”


He still had over 70,000 merit points left.


The Dream Creation Skill, already at the “Entering Dao” level, required 2,000 merit points to upgrade. Xu Yang spent a whopping 70,000 merit points at once, the continuous system prompts echoing in his mind…


The next moment, Xu Yang suddenly trembled.


He felt an unbearable throbbing in his forehead, as if something was about to burst out.


Immediately after…


Crack!


A sound like an invisible barrier being shattered echoed in his ears. His body started to float uncontrollably.


He looked down in terror…


Only to find his body still sitting cross-legged on the bed!


“What the hell!”


“What’s happening?”


Xu Yang was startled…


Am L…


Turned into a ghost?
