The mere wisp of aura that spread out caused the Green-faced Devil to tremble all over, shudder in dread, feeling the great terror of being eradicated from its very source.
This strand of aura seemed like a repulsion from the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao suppresses all malevolent spirits.
At the same time, the Green-faced Devil felt a burning pain all over its body.
It looked down to see that, unbeknownst to it, its hands, feet, and entire body seemed to be burning in a melting fire, gradually fading away.
And its form was gradually shrinking, gradually revealing its true shape, reverting to that little green-faced ghost with protruding fangs.
“I must escape, or I will surely die!”
Frightened out of its wits, the Little Green-faced Ghost screamed shrilly, struggling desperately to escape from Mo Hua’s Sea of Consciousness.
Naturally, Mo Hua would not let it escape.
His eyes lit up, he took the opportunity to use the Water Passing Step, took three steps as if they were two, and in an instant, he arrived in front of the Little Green-faced Ghost and grabbed it.
Previously, when the Little Green-faced Ghost was powerful, Mo Hua could not get close to it.
But now, it had been bombed by Mo Hua’s Earth Fire Formation and burned by the aura of the Taoist Stele, revealing its true form, and the remaining Divine Sense had weakened significantly.
Mo Hua easily subdued it.
The Little Green-faced Ghost was still struggling, screaming, “Let me go! Let me go!”
Mo Hua did not release it; instead, he asked, “What exactly are you?”
The Little Green-faced Ghost didn’t answer; instead, its expression became fierce, threatening,
“Let go of me quickly… otherwise, one day, I will eat you!”
Mo Hua’s gaze turned stern, and his face became serious.
You dare to threaten me when death is imminent?
He gripped the Little Green-faced Ghost’s throat and said coldly, “Keep being arrogant, and see if I don’t eat you first?”
Although Mo Hua’s words were a threat, as soon as he spoke them, the Little Green-faced Ghost suddenly showed a look of terror.
“Don’t… don’t say ‘eat’…”
The Little Green-faced Ghost was both shocked and scared.
But it was too late; as soon as Mo Hua had finished speaking, a more majestic aura came from the Taoist Stele, burning the Little Green-faced Ghost into a shadowy figure.
The shadowy figure of the Little Green-faced Ghost was screaming, writhing, struggling, shrieking, but it was all in vain. It was ground down by the aura from the Taoist Stele, quickly refined into a few green vapors.
Afterward, these strands of green vapor directly drilled into Mo Hua’s mouth and were swallowed into his belly.
In an instant, the Little Green-faced Ghost was “eaten” by Mo Hua.
Mo Hua was stunned.
He was merely speaking offhand; how did he really “eat” this little ghost?
He didn’t actually want to eat it…
Thinking of the ugly appearance of the little ghost with green face and sharp teeth, Mo Hua couldn’t help muttering,
“I hope it doesn’t upset my stomach… no, my mind.”
Before he finished speaking, Mo Hua’s expression changed.
He felt as if a kaleidoscope had burst open in his mind, filled with many new images.
In the depths of the mountains, a little Taoist Child followed a Taoist in learning Tao Cultivation.
The Taoist was reading a strange book; the Taoist Child also looked on, and as they did, their smiles gradually turned eerie, and they both wanted to eat humans.
The Taoist Child and the Taoist colluded, deceiving wandering Cultivators and began to eat people.
As they ate, both of them lost their human shapes.
One turned into a Red-Faced Evil Ghost with sharp fangs, and the other into a little green-faced ghost.
Later, a White-Robed Sword Cultivator arrived, stepping on clouds, and with one sword strike, he slew the Red-Faced Evil Ghost that the Taoist had become. The Taoist Child that turned into the Little Green-faced Ghost, however, escaped from the slaughter and hid in a painting, sealed away in a Taoist temple.
Later, many Cultivators obtained this painting.
Those with shallow insight, unable to see its true form, said it was a Taoist Child under the seat of a master.
Those with profound Divine Sense, who saw through its true face, called it an evil spawn.
And there were those unaware who would meditate on this image, borrowing its Divine Sense.
But to borrow means you must repay.
It would gradually consume these people’s Divine Sense.
Until an Elder of a Sect sealed it away, it saw no sunlight and starved for a long time.
Later, a Sect Disciple stole it away.
This Sect Disciple had a youthful face, filled with ambition.
