Taoist Master: I have a strange world

Chapter 9 The lethality of ultraviolet rays to Yin spirits
  The temple sign can activate the power of the Taoist temple to protect the body within the scope of the Taoist temple.

That is to say, even if he is not too far away from the Taoist temple, Zhang Ling can use the temple plaque to feel as if he is in the temple, protected from external evil.

Zhang Ling did not continue to act rashly, but chose to observe the Yin spirit coming out of the big willow tree under the protection of the temple sign.

"Liu Dashan, you go out first!"

Zhang Ling did not forget to persuade Liu Dashan to retreat, and Liu Dashan also hurriedly ran out with his old father, but before leaving, he said: "Taoist Master, please."

Zhang Ling didn't turn his head back, his eyes slightly bulged outwards, and he looked at the shadowy figure that looked like a human and a scorpion, coming out of the big willow tree and landing on the scorpion crawling out of the scorpion jar on the ground.

Swish!
  It was as if the scorpion's body had some kind of suction force, instantly absorbing the monster's Yin spirit into it.

Immediately afterwards, the scorpion changed. The scorpion, which was originally no more than the size of a palm, suddenly expanded, and in just a moment, it became the size of a boot.

A scorpion this big would be scary enough if it were ordinary people.

What shocked Zhang Ling was not the case.

"Zizzizi!"

"Clap!"

But now it seems that this has obviously reached a higher level. The Yin spirit living in the big willow tree has actually entered the body of a scorpion and changed.

In Liu Dashan's words, these past few days were just some insignificant supernatural events.

The alienated human-faced scorpion also let out some screams. The screams were not as raw as before.

A human face.

A stream of white smoke rose from the Scorpion's body, as if white phosphorus reacted violently when it came into contact with the air.

"Ahhh!"

He was ready to draw his sword at any time, but he never thought that the ultraviolet flashlight would give him a surprise. It could cause such great damage to the human-faced scorpion.

"Ho ho!"

Just as Zhang Ling turned on the ultraviolet flashlight, a beam of light instantly emitted from it and landed accurately on the alienated human-faced scorpion.

This is not an ordinary strong light flashlight, but a strong light flashlight with ultraviolet light, which can simulate sunlight to a certain extent.

"So useful?"

Zhang Ling was slightly startled, but then he felt a little happy. He didn't expect this ultraviolet flashlight to be so effective.

Instead, a face vaguely appeared on the mutated scorpion.

It's more like the original eyes of the scorpion turned into human eyes, and the nose and mouth appeared underneath, turning into human facial features.

Zhang Ling stopped observing, because he saw the strange and violent eyes of the human-faced scorpion opening its mouth, falling on Zhang Ling's body, followed closely by a pair of pliers raised, and its tail high behind him. Raised high, in a fighting stance.

Zhang Ling did not hesitate to turn on the bright flashlight he carried.

Zhang Ling was so surprised that he couldn't help but take a step back slightly, put his hand into his arms, and was ready.

At this moment, the alienated human-faced scorpion opened its mouth and made a hoarse sound, which was as hoarse as a sharp object rubbing against glass.

And... Zhang Ling used Zongmu at this moment and could clearly see that there was no trace of clarity in the eyes of this human-faced scorpion, but instead there was a sense of chaos and violence.

"I don't know if this ultraviolet light is useful, or if simple light is useful."

Such an idea came to Zhang Ling's mind, but he didn't think much about it.

He stared at the human-faced scorpion and noticed that in this moment, white smoke was emitting from his body and he was rolling on the ground.

In his unique vertical vision, Zhang Ling could see that a black yin energy was evaporating, so white smoke was coming out.

"What else should I do? Go up and give him a knife, or do something else?" Zhang Ling was a little frustrated and suddenly didn't know what to do.

Zhang Ling went up and gave him a knife. Zhang Ling was also worried that the man-faced scorpion's pincers and tail would catch him off guard and hurt him. After all, what Zhang Ling was carrying was only a short knife.

He glanced around and saw a long stick at the edge of the yard, so he was ready to go over and get the long stick for emergency use.

During this process, the bright flashlight in Zhang Ling's hand was always pointed at the human-faced scorpion.

Even so, there was an accident!
  The human-faced scorpion screamed and rolled over, falling under the roots of the willow tree.

Suddenly, one of the shadows rose up and quickly escaped from the human-faced scorpion's body and entered the big willow tree.

The originally alienated human-faced scorpion quickly transformed into its original appearance and size, but it remained motionless and had lost its vitality.

The ultraviolet flashlight in Zhang Ling's hand fell on the big willow tree, and it only illuminated the willow bark clearly.

Within Zongmu's field of vision, he could see a section of dense Yin Qi billowing inside the willow tree, with a shadow emerging from it.

Astonishingly, it was the half-human, half-scorpion monster Yin Ling who had just returned to the willow tree.

It's just that... after one round of exposure to the ultraviolet light, the Yin Spirit now seems to have been greatly damaged, and its size has shrunk by half.

"Is this weakened?"

Not only did Zhang Ling see that the monster's Yin spirit had become smaller in size, but it also no longer had the same sense of 'activity' it had before, and was almost lifeless.

However, through the flow of dense Yin Qi in the big willow tree, one can see that there are air currents that are absorbed by the monster Yin spirit.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Ling had a guess in his mind.

"A few days ago, it was because this Yin spirit was inside the willow tree like this, using the Yin energy in the willow tree to strengthen itself, so today it reached the point where it could manifest itself with the help of the scorpion, but it happened to bump into me."

"This time I was knocked back to my original shape, so I returned to the willow tree."

Zhang Ling did not relax his vigilance and walked around the willow tree a few more times before confirming his suspicion.

Because no matter what, the monster Yin spirit that returned to the willow tree was already lifeless and showed no signs of moving.

"So, when will it come out again?"

Zhang Ling looked carefully and found that although the other party was lifeless, he seemed to be able to absorb the yin energy from the surrounding willow trees.

Every ray absorbed makes it stronger.

However, at this rate, it will probably take three days before it can grow back to its original size.

"This monster Yin spirit was accidentally brought here by Liu Dashan, and then met the willow tree containing Yin energy. Then it slowly grew stronger and was hit by me."

"But now I haven't solved it yet. In a few days, this monster ghost will reappear."

"Fortunately, UV flashlights can suppress it, but it is still a hidden danger."

"If you want to solve it completely..."

Zhang Ling looked at the big willow tree and thought of cutting down the tree.

But this willow tree is huge, with a trunk as thick as two people hugging it. It is true that it has grown for tens or even hundreds of years.

"I asked Liu Dashan for his opinion first."

"There is a yin energy in this willow tree, which can allow monsters and ghosts to live in it. It is obviously strange and must be valuable. It would be a pity if it was cut down for nothing."

While Zhang Ling was thinking, he put away the flashlight and the temple sign, and headed outside the courtyard to look for Liu Dashan and his son.
