A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 156 Soul Calling

Suddenly, the corpse that had been lying quietly on the ground, looking like a charred corpse, charged towards Ji Lin.

Seeing this, Ji Lin reacted extremely quickly. He swung his spear, the tip of which accurately lifted the menacing corpse and threw it far away.

However, despite this, Ji Lin was still shocked by the bizarre scene before him, and he subconsciously muttered to himself, "How can this guy survive so long?"

But after only a brief moment of shock, Ji Lin quickly regained his composure and readjusted his fighting stance and strategy.

He flashed into the air again, gripped his spear tightly with both hands, and slammed it down on the corpse below with tremendous force.

With a loud bang, the corpse was slammed to the ground like a cannonball, raising a cloud of dust.

At that moment, the spear in Ji Lin's hand instantly transformed into an exquisite ring, which was securely placed on his finger.

After completing this series of movements in the air, Ji Lin did not pause at all. Instead, he nimbly flipped his entire body in the air, with his palms facing down and powerful magical energy continuously surging from his palms.

These magical powers gradually condensed and took shape, eventually transforming into an enormous, lifelike hand shadow that hung high in the air.

"Buddha's Palm!" As Ji Lin uttered these four words, the enormous palm shadow roared down towards the ground with overwhelming force.

In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains trembled, as if the whole world was shaking.

Once the dust settled, Ji Lin landed steadily. The moment his feet touched the ground, he immediately began to fully activate his Merit Mantra.

He chanted incantations, and beams of golden light emanated from his body, enveloping the barely alive corpse. The golden light also spread outwards, completing the final ritual of deliverance.

"All done!" As Ji Lin uttered these words, he slowly closed his eyes, focusing on feeling the newly generated strands of merit power within his body.

These merits flowed through his meridians, bringing him an indescribable sense of comfort and satisfaction.

At the same time, a flash of light appeared, and the Starry Sea Fan, as if drawn by an invisible hand, reappeared in Ji Lin's palm.

He gently grasped the fan, flicked his wrist slightly, and unfolded the fan surface.

In an instant, a strange energy fluctuation rippled out from the Star Sea Fan.

Wherever this energy fluctuation passed, everything seemed to be controlled by some mysterious force, and began to recede at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The scene that had been burned to ruins and ashes by Ji Lin's raging flames underwent a dramatic transformation in a short period of time.

The ruins gradually disappeared, replaced by a long-abandoned but still well-preserved villa. The surrounding area presented a pleasant scene: lush green grass, blooming flowers, and a gentle breeze rustling the leaves, as if the fierce battle had never taken place here.

This is one of the many amazing abilities of the Starry Sea Fan—the ability to control time.

Since the evil spirits and vengeful ghosts that had been causing trouble had all been exorcised by Ji Lin, Xing Hai Shan's time-manipulation ability was now only used to restore the surrounding environment, returning everything to its original state.

After completing all this, Ji Lin flashed away and headed towards the RV.

Because the battle ended exceptionally quickly, Huan'er, who had been waiting inside the car, didn't have to wait long. When Ji Lin's figure appeared in front of the car door, a look of joy appeared on her face.

The moment Ji Lin stepped into the carriage, the Star Sea in his hand quietly detached and transformed into a human form.

She casually picked up the snacks and drinks she hadn't finished eating and continued to devour them without a care in the world.

Seeing this, Ji Lin smiled slightly but didn't say anything. He simply sat down quietly in the passenger seat and rested for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Lin grabbed the detection radar placed inside the car and skillfully entered a name on the screen—Annabelle.

It should be noted that during the ritual just now, Ji Lin had already realized that the evil spirit that had been causing trouble was none other than Basshiba from "The Summoning of Souls".

This is why he naturally thought of another chilling evil spirit that also appeared in the film: Annabelle.

When Ji Lin stared at the radar screen, his eyes instantly became focused and sharp.

Sure enough, red dots representing the presence of evil spirits appeared on the screen, with Annabelle's red dot standing out particularly brightly, as if the evil power it contained was gushing out through the small screen.

According to the information provided by the radar, Annabelle is classified as a high-level evil spirit, and her power is considerable.

Although Annabelle's approximate location has been pinpointed, she is quite far from where Ji Lin and the others are currently. However, this difficulty is nothing to Ji Lin, who is determined to succeed.

He immediately listed Annabelle as his next high-level evil spirit target. After completing these operations, Ji Lin casually tossed the detection radar aside, his movements elegant and effortless.

Then, he quickly put on a pair of cool sunglasses, turned to Huan'er beside him and gave the order: "Let's go!" Huan'er nodded in understanding and started the car engine.

Despite being a magical phone created by the system, Huan'er can drive a vehicle tirelessly like a perpetual motion machine without needing to eat or drink.

However, Ji Lin still decided to let Huan'er find a suitable place to rest for a while.

It's important to know that even if this is a spacious and comfortable RV, prolonged sitting will eventually cause discomfort.

The car slowly moved along the road, and before long, a large and magnificent town came into Ji Lin's view.

He rolled down the car window, took a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it leisurely, and took a puff.

The swirling smoke rose in front of him, and just then, Ji Lin noticed an unusually dense black aura permeating the sky above the town.

Ji Lin turned his gaze to the radar screen inside the car, where it clearly showed that a powerful high-level evil spirit was lurking in the seemingly peaceful town ahead.

However, faced with this situation, Ji Lin showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

Immediately afterwards, he narrowed his eyes slightly, staring intently ahead, and then said softly to Huan'er, who was sitting in the driver's seat, "Just find a place to park."

Upon hearing this, Huan'er nodded, gently gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and slowly moved the vehicle forward.

Finally, the car came to a smooth stop in front of a slightly old but rather distinctive restaurant in the small town…
