When he saw Fifth Uncle-Master coming, he felt as if he had found his backbone, and Taoist Yizhen quickly told him everything.

Yun Xuanyuan was also very happy and asked, "Little Junior Brother didn't come out to eat?"

Yizhen Taoist nodded.

On the side, Lin Haoyu said helplessly: "Little Master Uncle has only been out for rituals these days, and the rest of the time he is in the basement."

Yun Xuanyuan raised his hand and touched his son's head. After a moment's thought, he said, "You all go eat. I'll go check on the situation."

Lin Haoran and Lin Haoyu led the royal guards to the dining hall, while Taoist Yizhen followed Yun Xuanyuan to the back mountain.

After Xiao Che and Gu Yifang knew about it, they looked at each other and came up with an idea.

"Everyone, hurry up and eat. We may need to recite the blessing sutra again in the afternoon."

When the other Taoists heard this, they did not dare to slack off either.

The Taoists in Yunshang Temple were all aware of what happened in the back mountain, but now that there were dozens of young men in the temple, everyone was being evasive in speaking.

As soon as the boys finished their meal, they were arranged to go back to the Sanqing Hall to recite Taoist scriptures. They heard that reciting Taoist scriptures in the Sanqing Hall after the ritual could accumulate merits, so they were all very enthusiastic.

Back mountain, outside the basement.

Yun Xuanyuan took a look at the seal and went to the other side to check the life-saving formation.

Just as Yizhen said, the golden light was flowing, and it was obvious that the merits being consumed were reduced, and the remaining merits were increased, slowly flowing back to the other side.

Yun Xuanyuan went back to the other side of the underground room and sensed it with the rhyme of Tao.

Knowing that Yuntang was still forcing out the evil spirit but the situation was not as dangerous as worried, he said, "Xiaotang'er, the fifth brother is here, don't worry, the senior brother is going to break the seal and go see the ninth brother."

"Fifth Brother, please wait another quarter of an hour." Yun Tang's voice came out calmly.

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Yun Xuanyuan put the sword he had just drawn back into the sheath and stood outside quietly waiting.

Taoist Yizhen suggested, "Fifth Master, how about we go to the dining hall to eat something first?"

Yun Xuanyuan shook his head and said, "Go eat first and prepare for the blessing ceremony in the peach forest this afternoon."

Since Lao Jiu shows signs of awakening and does not need as much merit as before, the subsequent rituals can be performed or not.

The merits accumulated by Yunshang Temple should be enough for a while.

Taoist Yizhen did not waste any time and left in a hurry.

A quarter of an hour later, Yun Tang's voice came again: "Fifth Brother, come in."

Yun Xuanyuan walked down to the basement without any obstruction and soon saw Yun Tang standing in front of the large green wooden coffin. There seemed to be nothing unusual about him.

But the large amount of talisman ashes and paper puppets piled on the ground showed what danger she had experienced before.

Yun Tang turned to look at Yun Xuanyuan: "Why is Fifth Senior Brother here?"

As agreed before, we will leave the Yunshang Temple matters to her so as not to distract their attention.

Yun Xuanyuan did not hide it and explained:

"Yizhen and Yian both sent back news that Laojiu had woken up. Your third brother wanted to come over to take a look, so he sent me to check on the situation."

Yun Xuanyuan said this and walked to the coffin.

Then I saw the person lying in the coffin, his eyes still closed, his face calm and lifeless, which made people feel sad and heartbroken.

But I soon felt something different from before.

There is a faint rise and fall in the throat, and a slow vibration in the chest.

Ninth Junior Brother did begin to breathe on his own.

Yun Xuanyuan finally felt relieved and said with red eyes: "Ninth Junior Brother finally made it."

Yuntang also smiled with relief.

Then, Yun Xuanyuan took out a bag of talisman paper and a paper puppet and handed them to Yun Tang.

"Your third brother and I stockpiled these past few days. You don't have to save them. I came in a hurry just now, and I haven't gotten the ones your sixth and seventh brothers stockpiled yet."

Yuntang quickly took the bag without any intention of being polite.

In order to speed up the removal of the evil spirit from her body and avoid worrying her fellow disciples and affecting their mood, she had used much more talismans and paper puppets than expected in the past two days.

Afterwards, the two talked about Yun Xuanmo's current situation. After knowing the situation of the life-saving formation on the other side, Yun Tang was happy and did not refuse the prayer ceremony in the afternoon.

“Since the consumption of merit has been reduced, the external rituals do not need to take so many days. They can be carried out inside the temple.” Yun Xuanyuan expressed his thoughts.

Because they all knew that holding rituals continuously also meant that Yuntang was continuously accelerating the flow of the power of the death curse.

The burden you carry becomes heavier and you don't have more time to clear it, so it accumulates and your condition gets worse day by day.

Yuntang was also aware of the current difficulties. Even his fifth senior brother had come over. After hesitating for a moment, he finally agreed.

"Okay, then after the ritual ends tomorrow, we will notify the believers to take a three-day break, and then we will proceed with the next three days of rituals."

Yun Xuanyuan nodded and said, "I will be here to protect the formation tomorrow."

"I brought over a dozen disciples from the Imperial Guards. I will notify Third Senior Brother and have Old Seven come over tomorrow as well. Don't worry and do your best. You will have three days of retreat after tomorrow."

Seeing that Yun Tang was about to refuse, Yun Xuanyuan said seriously: "Saving Old Nine is not just Xiao Tang'er's responsibility. Let the brothers also contribute a little, okay?"

Yuntang then stopped talking.

In the afternoon, before the Shen hour, all the red-robed mages and green-robed mages came to the peach forest outside the underground chamber.

The other Taoists continued to busy themselves with their own things, not wanting the teenagers to notice anything and sneak to the back mountain.

To be on the safe side, Taoist Yizhen once again activated the mountain protection formation and the temple protection formation. The double formations were only for exiting but not entering, so as to avoid being disturbed.

In addition, at Xiao Che's suggestion, the forbidden defense formation was also opened in the back mountain.

Everything is ready. We will not go to the Sanqing Hall and the Zushi Hall. A new blessing ceremony will begin and it will not take too long.

But for Yuntang, it was an opportunity to make full use of the remaining power of merit and accelerate Yun Xuanmo's absorption of this power.

Just like a seriously injured person who has been unconscious for too long, his body is too weak.

Although the body can restore its autonomous life functions to absorb nutrients, it is worth a try if there are auxiliary methods to accelerate absorption and recovery.

The situation on Yun Xuanmo's side quickly stabilized, while Yun Tang continued to force out the black evil energy on his own.

With Senior Brother Five and Junior Nun Yizhen protecting her, she felt much more at ease than when she was in the Patriarch's Hall in the morning.

Half an hour later, the ritual outside ended and everyone else evacuated the basement. Yuntang took off his long yellow satin ribbon, revealing a pair of bright red eyes.

Although there was no change in his eyes, the aura emanating from his body made people feel at ease, which showed that the ritual in the afternoon had taken effect.

That night, Yun Tang followed Yun Xuanyuan to the dining hall to eat, and talked about going to the Ancestral Hall for evening classes.

When Xiao Ye and the others saw Yun Tang finally appear, they quickly surrounded her and looked her up and down.

"Junior Master, are you hiding something important from us?" Xiao Ye asked in a low voice.

But he didn't dare to touch the long cloth belt without permission again.

Last time at the Duke Ping's Mansion, he just stretched out his hand but didn't actually touch her, and his father hit his hand with a ruler.

"Have you resolved the issue of your registered disciples?" Yun Tang asked casually while eating his meal slowly.

Just one sentence diverted Xiao Ye and the others' attention.
