Chapter 28 Crisis
After returning to the Li Mansion, before Lin Bei came back, Chu Liang sat cross-legged in meditation, planning to use this time to reward himself.
When I came to the White Tower, I saw a faint golden ghost imprisoned in the prison.
Before, Chu Liang also thought about whether this white pagoda was an evil magic weapon for refining souls in exchange for treasures. It was later discovered that it should not be, the White Tower does not interfere with the dissipation and reincarnation of the soul, and the golden phantom it extracts is more like a mark. It was just to prove to himself that he had indeed killed such an evil creature.
The most direct evidence is the painted skin ghost in front of you, and the previous cat spirit, they are all ghosts, and they are incorporeal souls.
If the White Tower extracts and refines their souls here, then their form in the White Tower should be the same as the form outside. But no, there is only a golden phantom without sanity in the White Tower.
So this is just a positive energy white tower to encourage oneself to slay demons.
Thinking, he pressed the word "refinement" smoothly.
Boom—
After the brilliance passed, he caught the treasure in his hand and found that it was a crystal clear white jade talisman.
【Moving Soul Curse】:
It can temporarily exchange your soul with another body, lasting for three breaths. It is recommended to use it for the same species, it will not be a good experience to enter a different species. The three-breath time is very short, but sometimes it is enough.
Chu Liang curled his lips, this time the reward was a bit disappointing.
This kind of jade talisman is not strictly a talisman, it is just a stored spell.
Practitioners can store one of their own magical powers in a complicated way, and then store them in such a jade talisman. The higher the grade of the jade talisman, the better the storage effect. A white jade talisman like this can at least retain 80% of its power.
Sometimes this kind of jade talisman will have miraculous effects, for example, some complicated spells can achieve instant effects, or it can store some self-defense spells for the younger generation.
It's just that this method has many restrictions, and the cost of intermediate consumption is very high, so it is not particularly common.
Like the soul-moving spell stored in this jade talisman...
Chu Liang didn't see much effect, so it's better to give an empty white jade talisman, this rare material can sell a lot of sword coins in Chuanjiantang.
But this kind of white jade talisman that stores garbage spells is not so valuable.
As soon as the reward was over, Lin Bei came back from the outside.
"How is it?" Lin Bei asked.
"Very well, the Painted Skin Ghost has been eliminated." Chu Liang replied.
"That's good, my side is also going well. Yan Xiaohu has already recognized me as a sworn brother, and vowed to change his past from now on and start a new life." Lin Bei laughed.
Chu Liang nodded.
Then he told Lin Bei the specific process.
"But it's strange to say..." Lin Bei was a little puzzled after hearing Chu Liang's story and knowing the whole picture, "They are all bullying her. How come Situ Yan has no resentment towards Yan Xiaohu? He was frightened for a long time, but in the end He is not on the revenge list at all."
"It's possible... it's because Yan Xiaohu didn't discriminate against her because of her appearance." Chu Liang thought, "Although he will ask Situ Yan for money, he will also ask for the same amount from other people. On this point, he They treat everyone equally. What will hurt Situ Yan is the special treatment..."
"It makes sense, alas..." Lin Bei nodded, and then sighed leisurely.
…
In the dead of night, there should be nothing to say all night.
Back to Nanshan Academy, Song Qingyi meditated and practiced for a while, then lay down to rest.
Cultivators in Renguan still need to sleep to nourish their spirits. Only when the spiritual state is at the peak and the energy and spirit are complete can they replace sleep with practice. It's just that kind of experience is still not as comfortable as a solid sleep.
Not long after, near dawn, she was suddenly awakened by a whimpering cry.
"Huh?" Song Qingyi turned over and sat up, confirming that there was a faint cry coming in from the window.
She got up and put on her clothes, flew away, and went out of the window.
This is the residence specially arranged for her by Nanshan Academy. It is quite far from other teaching residences, and there is no one living nearby.
Who is crying?
She followed the sound and looked for it. Not far away, she saw a small figure curled up in the corner of the wall, combing her hair in a bun, crying with her back turned.
At this moment, the matter of Painted Skin Ghost had come to an end, and she wasn't very vigilant, but the moment the child turned her head back, the thick Yin Qi almost hit her face, Song Qingyi's heart tightened, and she flew back!
But it's still a bit late.
She still saw the child's face, black, terrifying, ferocious with knotted blood vessels, shattered like a rotten watermelon, and there was a clang in her mind, like a heavy hammer hitting the depths of her soul.
Even though she reacted quickly, she still didn't guard against the blow, and she froze on the spot for a moment.
At this moment, there were a few puffs under her feet, and seven or eight ghost hands with bony bones and long black nails broke through the ground, and they all grabbed her ankles!
Song Qingyi bit the tip of her tongue forcefully to wake herself up, and took out the inch-inch ruler with her hands, intending to cut off these ghost hands.
But there was another burst of icy cold behind!
She herself could only feel the extreme cold, and her body was stiff and unable to move.
But if you look from the side, you can see a white-clothed female ghost with long hair covering her face at some point on her back, holding her shoulder blades with her hands.
"who is it?"
Song Qingyi was controlled, but instead of panicking, she asked calmly. It cannot be a coincidence that so many ghosts appear at the same time.
Someone must be behind the scenes.
"Hehe, it turned out to be the little girl from Junzitang..." A hoarse voice sounded from the side.
A tall figure dressed in a black robe with a hood and a hood over his head came out slowly. His voice sounded very old, but his body shape and posture did not look like an old man, which was a bit strange.
"You shouldn't, you shouldn't, you shouldn't touch the painted skin ghost that I worked so hard to refine." The black robed man still had resentment in his tone, "I promised her to let her kill three enemies here, and I will concentrate on helping her." I took away souls. Who knows...it's already over, she is ready to leave with me...you just killed her at this time..."
"I am angry…"
"You have to pay the price..."
The gloomy tone of the man in black made one feel chilly in the darkness before dawn.
Song Qingyi didn't say any more, but suddenly held up a finger in his left hand, and saw a golden light floating in the sky, it turned out to be the half-page golden book.
Half a page of the golden book lifted into the air, sprinkled a ray of light, and the ghostly hands that bound Song Qingyi instantly emitted black smoke! There were endless scoffs, and the screams and wailing suddenly sounded.
"ah-"
The ghost hand and the female ghost in white retreated one after another, and Song Qingyi immediately regained her freedom. She didn't try to attack the black-robed man, because the battle just now proved that the other party's cultivation was far superior to her own, at least he was a cultivator at the Golden Core level... and it was a magic cultivator with strange methods.
The most important thing is to get out now.
Seeing her turning around and rushing towards the rear, the man in black robe didn't chase after her, just smiled strangely, and took out a huge black iron slingshot.
Holding the slingshot with his right hand, he pulled it full, and said softly, "Go!"
Whoosh—
A flash of lightning pierced the long night.
Chick.
Song Qingyi's figure shook in the air, making the sound of being stabbed by a sharp object, but there was no wound. It just froze suddenly, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Boom!
After she fell to the ground, she felt cold all over her body, extremely stiff, and it was extremely difficult to move her fingers. A name suddenly flashed into her mind.
Cone Soul Nail.
The magic weapon of Hades sect, invisible and shadowless, designed to stab people's souls. Under one nail, the soul is determined, and the person is determined.
The footsteps from behind were getting closer and closer, the man in black came slowly, and then hooked his fingers, as if an invisible silk thread was pulling Song Qingyi, her body involuntarily stood upright.
"follow me."
The man in black gave a strange laugh, and walked forward. Song Qingyi, who was very stiff, followed all the way behind, seemingly unable to escape.
only.
In a corner where no one is paying attention, the half-page golden book that was protecting Song Qingyi just now has quietly disappeared...
