No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right? Chapter 157 – The Ghost King Is Released, Golden Band Incantation

A strong voice sounded.

In an instant, all the resentful spirits in the Ghost King grave condensed behind Ye Ping.

Han Mo's sword was blocked.

Boom.

The demon-suppressing seal was damaged again, but what left Ye Ping speechless was that the tablet was exceptionally strong. It still didn't crumble at this time.

'Brother, stop hanging on, hurry up and shatter.'

Ye Ping was really a little anxious.

Although he did not know who was helping him, he would be in trouble if it continued.

“Don't panic, Old friend, give your full attention, and leave the rest to me.”

The voice continued. He told Ye Ping not to panic and that he would take care of Han Mo.

Boom.

Hearing this, Ye Ping didn't care about anything else and simply stared at the stone tablet while punching it repeatedly.

Behind Ye Ping, the terrifying resentment helped to block Han Mo's attacks again and again.

In an instant, Han Mo knew who was secretly striking.

“Ye Ping, this is the Ghost King, he wants to come out. If you release him, all of us will die. In this case, I can not make things hard for you, as long as you hand the princess over to me.”

“Ye Ping, the matter of the Tenth Princess involves too many things, and if you want to forcefully protect her, it will also be a huge disaster for her. Aren't you afraid that your clan will be implicated?”

“The Fiendcelestial Cult is not some small sect, there are many strong people within the Fiendcelestial Cult. If they find out that you were the one who ruined their plans, you'd definitely die.”

“Ye Ping, calm down, calm down, think about it, think about your Senior Brother and your master. If the Fiendcelestial Cult goes to your sect one day while the Tenth Princess hides in the Great Xia Dynasty, what will happen to the sect?”

“One more thing, if you release the Ghost King and I die, do you think you can escape? This Ghost King is insidious, scheming, cunning, despicable, and unscrupulous. He will never hesitate to kill. Can you subdue him?”

Daoist Han Mo was really flustered.

If the Ghost King was really released, he would really be finished, so he did not want to continue to provoke Ye Ping. As long as he could take the Tenth Princess away, Ye Ping would pretend he had never seen them.

Indeed, Ye Ping calmed down after hearing Han Mo's words.

He frowned and thought about the things that Han Mo said just now. If the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples really went to the Qingyun Dao Sect, what would happen?

However, after Ye Ping stopped, the Ghost King spoke again.

“Old friend, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and smash it, do you still believe in such bullshit? So what if the Fiendcelestial Cult is strong? Can they defy heaven? Is the Great Xia Dynasty that weak?”

“Also, who is despicable and shameless? Who kills without blinking? Who is insidious and cunning? Old friend, don't worry, when I come out, I will definitely not hurt you in the slightest.”

The Ghost King began clamoring. It was extremely agitated and nervous. Having been sealed in the Linhe Ghost Grave for hundreds of years, it did not expect that it would one day have the opportunity to break the seal. To be honest, it felt that it was about to die.

Now that someone had broken the seal, how could it not be excited and agitated?

However, at this moment, Ye Ping figured it out clearly.

'If the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples made it to the Qingyun Dao Sect, that would be great. In the future, there would be no Fiendcelestial Cult.'

'Wouldn't that be great?'

'The Qingyun Dao Sect is full of the best experts. Why would they have to worry about the Fiendcelestial Cult?'

'Even if Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters don't attack, I can handle the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples alone. Wouldn't I get merit then?'

At the thought of this, Ye Ping's punches got more and more intense.

In an instant, Han Mo's expression changed. He didn't expect that Ye Ping would dare to continue punching.

'Do you really want to die?'

'Are you not afraid that your sect will be exterminated?'

“Yes, yes, yes, that's right, this is the right feeling. Okay, good, very good. Smash this stone tablet, hehehe.”

The Ghost King spoke, wishing it could do a happy dance, but unfortunately, it was being suppressed in a tiny mountain and could not move at all.

“Ye Ping, you're crazy!”

In an instant, Han Mo ran quickly because the stone tablet was really going to be shattered. Once it did, he would die for sure.

Roar!

The sound of a massive dragon roar filled the air.

In the next moment, the Demon Suppression Tablet shattered.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

In an instant, the entire mountain trembled and all the array formations in the Linhe Ghost Grave collapsed. The terrifying ghostly energy filled the air, turning the sky black.

“Hahahahaha!”

“Hahahahaha!”

“Hahahaha… ahem!”

Deafening laughter spread over hundreds of kilometers and the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon had been awakened. The resentment surged into the mountain.

At this moment, the mountain collapsed, there were wild shrieks and howls, the dark clouds rolled and covered a distance of thousands of kilometers.

The gusts of evil wind caused the trees to shatter and it was like the end of the world.

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon had surfaced.

In an ancient temple 5,000 kilometers away from the Linhe Ghost Grave, an old monk suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the Linhe Ghost Grave in disbelief, his eyes full of astonishment and horror.

“The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon has appeared, Jin Nation is going to face a massacre again.”

He muttered to himself and then took out a Demon Subduing pestle. He then stepped on a golden bridge and rushed towards the Linhe Ghost Grave.

The people in several Daoist temples in Jin Nation left with Dharma artifacts, each looking extremely sullen.

In the Linhe Ghost Grave, Han Mo went from being unbeatable to now fleeing in despair. Overwhelmed with fear, his heart jumped and he cursed Ye Ping repeatedly.

“Fool, fool, such a fool. The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon has been sealed in the Linhe Ghost Grave for hundreds of years. It might have been expiated by the supreme sutras, but its resentment has not decreased.”

“Now that it's released, it's getting stronger too. When the time comes, the whole Jin Nation will not be able to suppress it. Ye Ping, you're such a fool. All the sins of the Ghost King are going to be pinned on you.”

“Fool, what a fool.”

Han Mo cursed but his heart was jumping in fear.

He wished that he could escape the ordeal.

However, at this moment, a big hand appeared in front of Han Mo. It did not have any light or Dharmic Dao, but it grabbed Han Mo from the air.

Whoosh!

In an instant, Han Mo returned to the Ghost King grave. He had been restrained and was standing near them with a look of panic.

Bang!

The mountain crumbled, and at this moment, a burly man appeared in front of everyone.

Standing at two meters, he was burly and bald, and was clad in a beast hide clothing. He was just like a steel tower as he emitted a terrifying aura.

It was the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon. However, no one expected it to have a green face and fangs, which made him look extremely ferocious. Instead, he was like an ordinary person.

“Awesome, awesome, awesome.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon stretched his muscles and bones with crackling sounds while staring at Han Mo.

“Senior, Lord, I am a member of the Fiendcelestial Cult. First of all, congratulations for being freed from suffering. I hope you will spare my life on the account of the Fiendcelestial Cult, Senior.”

Sensing the gaze of the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon, Han Mo cried and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy. However, the problem was that his body had been restrained and he couldn't kneel down at all.

Smack!

“You're from a demonic cult? You're not fit! I hate people from the demonic cult the most.”

In the next moment, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon slapped Han Mo on his face, knocking Han Mo's teeth out. His tone was extremely menacing.

After he said that, Han Mo was dumbfounded.

Ye Ping and Xia Qingmo were also a little confused.

'The Ghost King claimed that he's not from a demonic cult? Is it really because of the expiation?'

“Yes, yes, yes, Senior, you don't belong to the demonic cult. For the past few hundred years, you must have comprehended a lot and you want to transcend yourself. You have understood the difference between good and evil, as well as the true meaning of life.”

“Senior, this is a sign that you are going to attain immortality, huh? Congratulations Senior, congratulations.”

Despite missing his teeth, Han Mo was still trying to flatter the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

In front of the Nascent Soul powerhouse, Golden Core realm cultivators were like ants who didn't need any fancy tricks at all. They could crush him with a lift of their fingers. Han Mo had no choice but to bear with it as he couldn't retaliate at all.

“Yes, you're right. I have transcended my ego and have gained a lot of insight, I'm about to attain immortality. However, what's the point of congratulating me? Aren't you going to give me any gifts?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon enjoyed the compliments, but at this point, he couldn't help but look at Han Mo.

“Gift? Okay, I will immediately go back and prepare a big gift for you. Don't worry, it will definitely be to your satisfaction.”

Han Mo hurriedly rejoiced.

“No need, just give yourself to me.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon chuckled and then grabbed Han Mo. Without hesitation, he turned into a giant demon that was at least thirty feet tall. He then swallowed Han Mo.

That was the difference between the Nascent Soul and Golden Core realm. No matter how strong a Golden Core realm cultivator was, he would be pressed onto the ground by a Nascent Soul realm powerhouse and be left with no means of retaliation.

“Ew!!!”

Seeing this scene, Xia Qingmo couldn't help but feel like retching. Her face was pale, and as the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, she had never seen such a scene before.

On the other hand, Ye Ping looked extremely calm as he looked at the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon silently.

The reason being, he discovered that the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon did not really eat Han Mo, but swallowed him. He seemed to have some secret, but had to pretend to swallow people to show his viciousness.

“Ew, so dry, it doesn't taste good at all. Young people do taste better.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said without concern. However, he soon looked at Ye Ping.

“Fellow Daoists, thank you for helping me get out of trouble. I will always remember your kindness.”

“How about this? I don't have much to gift you, but why don't I send you to the Western Paradise so that you can ascend to immortality soon?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said with a gentle smile.

He acted normal and stood with his hands by his side and a kind smile on his face, his pearly whites looking frightening.

“Didn't you say you wouldn't hurt us?”

Xia Qingmo swallowed her saliva behind Ye Ping while looking at the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

“Yes, I said I wouldn't hurt you. I'm sending you to the Western Paradise.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said in bewilderment, thinking that Xia Qingmo had mistaken.

Xia Qingmo was a bit speechless. She didn't even know how to retort because the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was right.

“Tsk, Fellow Daoist, you've done me the greatest favor, so I'll send you to the Western Paradise.”

“I have to say that your Qi and blood are really exuberant. It's just like a sun and swallowing you would feel ten times better than swallowing that old guy.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon's eyes were full of excitement.

He even licked his lips and looked at Ye Ping, wishing he could swallow Ye Ping.

“Great Purgatory Resentful Demon, I am the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty. If you swallow us, do you know how terrible the consequences you have to face will be?”

At this moment, Xia Qingmo still couldn't help but muster up the courage to say those words in a bid to deter the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon using her identity.

Unfortunately, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon shook his head and looked at Xia Qingmo.

“Hear me out, I, the Ghost King, am a heretic, right?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said.

“Yes.”

Xia Qingmo nodded.

“The Great Xia Dynasty is orthodox, right?”

“Since ancient times, good and evil have always stood against each other. If I don't kill you, will the Great Xia Dynasty let me go because of that?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said slowly.

Xia Qingmo thought for a moment, and then shook her head.

Regardless of whether the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon would let her off or not, someone would come after him and kill him. It was a rule since ancient times that evil and good had always stood against each other.

“So, I will have to be killed regardless of whether I release you or not. Why should I let you off then?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was good at sophistry and logic. After he said that, Xia Qingmo fell silent as she did not know what to say.

However, in the end, Xia Qingmo couldn't help but speak again.

“The records in the books are right. You demons are all despicable and shameless. You go back on your word. You said you wouldn't hurt us, but you still want to eat us in the end.”

Xia Qingmo got a little angry.

“You are wrong again.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon shook his head and continued.

“Indeed, ghosts are despicable. However, I'm the Ghost King because I'm despicable, isn't that so?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon seemed to have not spoken for hundreds of years and he was not in a hurry at all. He seemed to have set his sights on eating Ye Ping and Xia Qingmo.

Xia Qingmo stopped talking. She realized that she could never outargue the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

She felt that as long as he did not have morals, he could not be threatened with the moral high ground.

“Aren't you going to speak? Is everything alright? Be safe on your journey there.”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon chuckled.

However, Ye Ping spoke up at this moment.

“Let us go, I won't attack you, you know what my trump card is.”

Ye Ping looked at the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon and said.

His trump card was simply the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon shook his head.

“Old friend, you're wrong too.”

“Firstly, you're in the Foundation Establishment, and secondly, I'm in the Nascent Soul realm.”

“You have the Golden Wheel of Expiation but I'm the Ghost King.”

“Do you think you have a chance to win? You only have one Golden Wheel of Expiation. If this was a few hundred years ago, it can really suppress me, but let me tell you the truth, my resentment has been reduced greatly but it has also brought about great benefits.”

“The reduction of resentment has done me a great favor. In the past, I wouldn't be sane enough to talk to you here but things are now different. My resentment has been lightened and my abilities have been increased. Your Golden Wheel of Expiation won't do any damage to me.”

“Understood?”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon revealed the matter in detail.

“Really?”

Ye Ping asked. The Golden Wheel of Expiation might be his trump card, but he had an even bigger trump card.

“Ah, why don't you understand? I'll explain it to you again, firstly…”

The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon still wanted to give Ye Ping a layman's explanation of the difference between them.

However, at this moment, Ye Ping suddenly spoke.

“In the past, the sky was blue…”

As he spoke, the Golden Wheel of Expiation floated behind him and emitted a golden light that broke through the black fog around him.

The ancient voice was mysterious and powerful. It was the voice of wisdom and also the voice of expiation.

“Supreme Expiation Sutra?”

At this moment, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon's expression changed drastically as he did not expect at all that Ye Ping not only possessed the Golden Wheel of Expiation but also had the supreme Expiation Sutra.

In an instant, he wanted to flee.

However, in the next moment, every word that Ye Ping uttered transformed into golden words that formed a large net to trap the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

*sizzles*

*sizzles*

Black smoke filled the air, and the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon let out a cry of misery while the Golden Wheel of Expiation and the Supreme Expiation Sutra did great damage to him.

He was completely terrified.

He didn't expect that Ye Ping had such a move.

However, in fact, Ye Ping also didn't expect that the Supreme Expiation Sutra and the Golden Wheel of Expiation would be that powerful.

If he had known this, he would not have given the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon a chance to speak.

Fortunately, he managed to suppress the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon. Otherwise, he would be in huge trouble.

“Stop it, stop it. Old friend, stop. I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I won't hurt you guys, I won't hurt you.”

In the middle of the golden net, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was weeping and rolling on the ground with his head in his hands, as if he was being tortured.

He was hollering and begging Ye Ping to stop.

However, Ye Ping was not a fool as he felt that he could not trust such demons.

Once he stopped, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon would probably kill him and Xia Qingmo immediately.

The difference between the Nascent Soul realm and the Foundation Establishment realm was worlds apart, and even a powerhouse like Han Mo could not resist.

Let alone Ye Ping.

Ye Ping began chanting.

His voice filled the air continuously.

The small golden words became brighter and brighter, and in the end, they turned into ripples that emitted the Golden Light of Expiation.

Endless merit power gushed into Ye Ping's body.

However, chanting the Supreme Expiation Sutra consumed a large amount of mental strength and he could barely persist.

At the thought of this, Ye Ping gritted his teeth and forced himself to finish chanting the first stanza of the incantation to at last defeat the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

That way, at least he could escape from this place.

Five minutes later, when Ye Ping finished reciting the last word, he was mentally exhausted.

However, when Ye Ping was ready to flee with Xia Qingmo, all the small golden words suddenly converged and formed a golden hoop that landed firmly on the bald head of the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.

In an instant, a Dharmic Dao appeared in Ye Ping's mind.
