Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 269 - 268: Power of Purification

Yun Ran looked around; perhaps too much time had passed, and any clues about the ancient Daoist suppressing the master of the illusion had vanished.

She let out a slight sigh, dropped her backpack, and then bowed with the utmost respect in front of the grave of the unnamed ancient Daoist.

Perhaps the atmosphere at the moment was somewhat heavy, and Ginsengfruit did not even dare to breathe loudly.

"Senior, I am Yun Ran from Qingfeng Temple. I take the liberty of intruding on you."

As Yun Ran finished speaking, the Little Papermen immediately flew out, and after rubbing their hands together in preparation, they began to dig into the soil.

Soon, Yun Ran saw the skeleton of the ancient Daoist. With just one look, she knew her previous guess was correct.

This nameless ancient Daoist indeed used his own Qi Fortune and Merit to suppress the master of the illusion.

Seeing the Daoist’s bones dyed ink-black by the Evil Qi, a wave of sourness surged in Yun Ran’s heart.

Such a scene was not new to her, as there were also people from Qingfeng Temple who had died on the path of exorcising Evil Spirits and avoiding Evil Qi, inevitably stirring up sadness within her.

Yun Ran collected the ancient Daoist’s bones, planning to take care of his burial affairs properly once the matter of the illusion was settled.

The Little Papermen did not stop their motion; beneath the grave of the ancient Daoist was the Array using Merit and Qi Fortune to suppress the illusion.

This gravesite, rather than being the final resting place of the ancient Daoist, was more like a dojo where he sacrificed himself.

After the Little Papermen cleaned up the last of the waste soil,

Yun Ran set down the ancient Daoist’s remains and took out a Nine Yang Grass from her bag, which she had obtained earlier in Yinghua Country.

Even though Ginsengfruit did not know what Yun Ran intended to do, seeing her action, it instinctively felt that something was not right.

Its voice carried a hint of panic: [Host, what are you trying to do!]

Not until Yun Ran walked to the center of the sacrificial Array and sat down cross-legged did Ginsengfruit feel as if its System was about to crash.

[Host, don’t be reckless. That ancient Daoist was about to die when he sacrificed his Qi Fortune and Merit. You are still very much alive...]

"Shut up. Don’t disturb me!"

Yun Ran’s tone was very calm, as if she were not about to enter the center of the sacrificial Array but merely going for a leisurely stroll.

The more composed Yun Ran was, the more panicked Ginsengfruit felt in its heart, but it knew it couldn’t stop her and didn’t dare to speak more for fear of disturbing Yun Ran.

For Xuanmen people in the midst of performing rituals, being disturbed could potentially lead to disastrous consequences.

Yun Ran also placed the Nine Yang Grass in the center of the Array. As someone with the Life of Abandoned by Heaven, she lacked sufficient Qi Fortune, but with the Nine Yang Grass present, this was no longer an issue.

The previously ineffective Array suddenly lit up with a trace of brightness as the Nine Yang Grass fell in the center.

As the sky gradually darkened, some stars had already begun to appear.

Yun Ran formed Sealing marks with both hands and drew out Merit Golden Light from within her body, then infused it into the center of the Array.

The Array, which was only faintly bright before, suddenly erupted with intense brilliance, and then the light seemed to correspond with certain stars in the sky.

The mobile troops stationed around the outskirts of the illusion naturally also felt this presence, filled with extreme rigidity and positivity, and saw the somewhat blinding Merit Golden Light.

"What... what is this..."

Although their tone was filled with confusion, deep down, they already had a vague idea of the answer.

Someone couldn’t help but swallow nervously, clearly frightened by such a spectacle.

"Boss, could it be that Miss Yun Ran was the one who did this? How can she possess such great power!"

"With this force in play, all the Evil Spirits within hundreds of miles will be completely purified."

"How come no one told me that Lady Yun was so powerful? I even gave her the cold shoulder before, I’m done for, totally done..."

Yun Ran had quite a lot of Merit Golden Light on her, and it was extremely pure, even slightly stronger than that nameless old Daoist.

Plus, with the enhancement of the Nine Yang Grass, the light that soared into the sky, under the effect of the Star Power, suddenly exploded.

Wherever it went, Evil Spirits and evil spirits all retreated, and even the weeds that had developed a rotting smell from absorbing Evil Energy were all evolved.

Daoist Qingmu and Zhongli Yuanjing, who were fighting desperately in the Illusion, had even more wounds on their bodies.

Both were panting heavily and, though they were in a sorry state, their eyes were filled with determination.

"Look, what is that!"

The ’Heavenly Fire’ and Demons that had emerged before them, for some reason, suddenly started retreating, and that wasn’t all.

In this dimness, where day and night were indistinguishable, and only endless disasters and darkness existed, a golden light suddenly appeared.

Daoist Qingmu’s eyesight was good, and after discerning for a few seconds, a trace of joy immediately sprung onto his face.

"It’s the Power of Purification! Looks like Yun Ran has found a way."

Even though he hadn’t seen what exactly happened outside, he was sure that this Power of Purification mixed with Merit Golden Light was certainly generated by Yun Ran.

Soon, others trapped in the Illusion also saw this streak of golden light.

The unseen power of the Illusion enveloping their heads was destroyed at a rapid speed, quickly revealing the original appearance of the Northwest Grassland.

Master Jiechen also guessed it was Yun Ran’s doing and quickly took out one of his Magic Artifacts.

He yelled at Mo Zhi who was dodging the Power of Purification, "Quick, hide inside!"

Although Mo Zhi had become a Ghost General, she was also marked by Yun Ran, and even Prohibition had been placed on her, but the origin of her power was yin energy.

Such Power of Purification, even if not targeting her, would still cause her a lot of suffering.

Mo Zhi looked at the Magic Artifact in Master Jiechen’s hand, which was specifically for capturing Evil Ghosts.

Under normal circumstances, she would never trust it, let alone humble herself.

But now, facing the golden light that made her feel uncomfortable all over, she had no choice but to dart into the Magic Artifact.

With a ’crack!’ the Magic Artifact split open.

Master Jiechen: ...

Leng Hu, standing beside him, almost couldn’t help laughing out loud; this must be the first time the master was so embarrassed, his eating utensil just broken like that.

Luckily Mo Zhi wasn’t an enemy, if they really encountered an enemy of this level and the Magic Artifact also broke, they would definitely be finished.

The other big shots from the Northwest Branch were also almost out of breath.

If it hadn’t been for the golden light destroying the Illusion, they would have truly been doomed here.

The second wave who had entered with Zhongli Yuanjing, though they were in bad shape at the moment, were still faring better than those from the Northwest Branch, at least they were still able to move.

Seeing the golden light, they knew that the outside support was strong, so naturally, they couldn’t just collapse.

One by one, they quickly got up to look for others; saving one more person was what counted.
