I just became a Purple-robed Celestial Master and a Thousand year old Fox spirit wants to enter my bridal chamber - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Unveiling Cultivation, Classified as A-Level Confidential!

This umbrella was one of the top-tier Daoist tools in the Jiangbei Paranormal Department and was personally carried by Lin Xiaoxiao. It was their trump card.

“Everyone, get inside the Demon-Breaking Umbrella’s range and charge with me!” Lin Xiaoxiao commanded and immediately activated the umbrella.

The Demon-Breaking Umbrella slowly opened, and an instant, a golden light illuminated the runes on the umbrella. It shattered many of the nearby ghostly shadows.

Seeing the treasure in action, Zhou Mingyue’s face lit up with delight. She also introduced the umbrella’s function to the livestream audience.

“Wow! The official department is indeed the official department, with deep roots!”

“Yeah! The effect of this Demon-Breaking Umbrella is way too strong.

After it’s opened, no evil spirits can approach within three yards. I really want one!”

“The umbrella handle doesn’t seem too thick. I have a daring idea! (Funny face)”

Watching the comments in the chat, Zhou Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief. Throughout this journey, the Paranormal Department hardly made any notable appearances.

Everyone was focused on watching the Tianshi (Zhang Beixuan) in battle, making them feel like a group of seemingly useless individuals. Now, they had finally found their purpose.

“This Daoist tool is indeed terrifying, not something ordinary people can…”

Zhou Mingyue began to say but was interrupted by the sound of bells.

Ding, ding, ding—

Before Zhou Mingyue could finish her sentence, the air resonated with bells ringing again. This sound was different from before, carrying a more aggressive intent. It transformed into strange soundwaves, charging towards the Demon-Breaking Umbrella.

The Demon-Breaking Umbrella vibrated, and its golden light was instantly suppressed. Lin Xiaoxiao continuously activated it, sweat forming on her forehead.

Buzz—

As another wave of attacks came, the Demon-Breaking Umbrella buzzed. A rift appeared in the umbrella’s surface, and the golden light dissipated.

“What?!” Lin Xiaoxiao’s pupils constricted as she looked at the scene in disbelief. “This bell… it’s an A-grade ghostly artifact!”

Only an A-grade ghostly artifact could effortlessly break through the defense of the Demon-Breaking Umbrella. However, A-grade ghostly artifacts were exceedingly rare, and there wasn’t a single one in the entire Jiangbei region. How could this malevolent spirit possess such a weapon?

Everyone around was left dumbfounded. An A-grade ghostly artifact was way beyond their ability to resist. Countless ghostly shadows were approaching, carrying enough paranormal power to wipe out the members of the paranormal department.

Lin Xiaoxiao’s face turned ashen. “This is bad…”

In the livestream chat, the viewers subconsciously closed their eyes. However, at that moment, a cold figure emerged.

“Golden Light Incantation, activate!”

Boom—

A radiant golden light erupted from Zhang Beixuan’s body. Wherever this light touched, the menacing ghostly shadows were instantly torn apart. Before anyone could react, Zhang Beixuan’s figure suddenly stepped forward like a cannonball, dispersing all the evil spirits. In one swift motion, she clenched the bell in her hand. Her supernatural power as a Sixth-Stage Immortal Thief exploded fully. With a sudden exertion of force, a crisp sound echoed from Zhang Beixuan’s hand.

The next moment, the ghostly shadows exploded!

The ominous aura dissipated, and the two paper figures that had appeared earlier reappeared before everyone. A pile of powder slipped from Zhang Beixuan’s palm.

“An A-grade ghostly artifact? Could it be a counterfeit?” Lin Xiaoxiao wondered, bewildered.

Members of the paranormal department: “???”

Livestream viewers: “???”

Lin Xiaoxiao was left speechless, her mouth gaping wide enough to fit a cucumber. Her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion and disbelief.

What on earth was happening? An A-grade ghostly artifact… had just been crushed by the Tianshi with her bare hands?! This was an A-grade ghostly artifact, not dough!

“Is the Tianshi still human?” Xu Ming and the other members of the paranormal department were equally shocked. Only the two paper figures across from them stood motionless.

“You… you destroyed the Mountain God’s treasure!” The female paper figure who had wielded the bell earlier had a trembling voice.

“Damn it! The Mountain God won’t forgive you!”

“You’re a pain,” Zhang Beixuan retorted without wasting time. She waved her hand.

Two golden lights pierced through the bodies of the two paper figures.

“Ding! Congratulations, host, on gaining 400 points!”

“Ding! Congratulations, host, on gaining 400 points!”

Two consecutive notification sounds rang in Zhang Beixuan’s mind.

When Zhang Beixuan returned, the entire passage had again fallen into silence.

“Tianshi… What’s your cultivation level?” Lin Xiaoxiao, standing next to Zhang Beixuan, took a deep breath and couldn’t resist her curiosity. The other members of the paranormal department also perked up their ears upon hearing Lin Xiaoxiao’s question.

“Sorry, everyone. There was a sudden situation. The live streamer has to go for now. After we’re out, I’ll release the rest of the video for you all!”

Zhou Mingyue, being quite discreet, closed the livestream immediately. Although the livestream was important, compared to the Tianshi’s cultivation level, it was vastly inferior. Moreover, broadcasting such events was not suitable.

Even as an ordinary person, she understood the importance of hiding one’s true strength. Otherwise, it would be easy for malicious individuals to scheme against them.

“Nothing special, just at the mid-level of the innate stage,” Zhang Beixuan replied casually. She had no intention of pretending to be weaker than she was. Of course, if someone treated her as an ordinary mid-level innate cultivator, they would be utterly unaware of their impending doom.

“Oh, so it’s at the innate stage..,” Lin Xiaoxiao said, but then it seemed like she had a realization. Her entire demeanor instantly turned horrifying.

“Mid-level innate stage!”

The paranormal department members around her also widened their eyes in shock as if they had just encountered a ghost.
