Chapter 801
This is a secluded corner of the ancestral hall. Apart from the coffin that Ling Yanyan is leaning against, all the other coffins are tightly closed.
He groped his way to his feet and looked around. The place was decorated in a rather ancient style. Apart from the oil lamp, there was nothing else around, except for a huge bronze coffin placed in the center.
This bronze coffin is different from other bronze coffins; it is not only about six meters tall but also three meters wide. The bronze coffin is shaped like a dragon's head, and the lid is engraved with dense runes and patterns.
The bronze coffin lid has a smooth, mirror-like surface with a subtle, dark sheen.
At the top of the bronze coffin hangs a huge stone with a lifelike image carved on it, depicting a winding yellow snake coiled around a stone pillar.
Ling Yanyan's gaze swept over the pattern, and a sense of familiarity welled up within him, as if he had seen it before. Unfortunately, his head throbbed with pain, and a wave of dizziness washed over him.
He almost fell to the ground, and hurriedly used his internal energy to suppress the abnormal situation, then looked up and looked around.
This was a tomb, and everything around it looked exceptionally old and dilapidated. Ling Yanyan's gaze swept over the tombstone, which read: Tomb of Village Chief Li Yunzhi.
Epitaph: "When I was young, I traveled all over the world and accidentally discovered that there was a gloomy atmosphere in this mountain that had condensed into fog. So I moved the villagers here to avoid disaster."
Looking at the handwriting, Ling Yanyan secretly guessed, "It seems he has cultivated here for a long time to achieve such a level of cultivation. No wonder he is so powerful. However... I always feel that what he said is not entirely accurate."
Just then, Li Yun's voice rang out: "Child, you're here? Come on over!" His tone was filled with intense joy, which sent chills down one's spine.
Ling Yan Yan swallowed hard and slowly walked towards the bronze coffin.
Arriving beside the bronze coffin, Ling Yan Yan lowered his head, remaining silent and not daring to speak.
"Young man, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person," came Li Yun's voice from the coffin.
Ling Yanyan nodded and said softly, "Senior, I understand."
Li Yun smiled.
“I know you don’t believe me. Hehe… If you believed me, I wouldn’t be me. Don’t worry, since you saved me, I naturally won’t hurt you. I will help you expel the evil spirits in the village and restore it to its former state.”
Ling Yanyan nodded and then stood aside.
Suddenly, Li Yun's figure vanished. Ling Yanyan quickly looked around warily, but found nothing, as if the person had never appeared at all.
Just as Ling Yanyan was wondering what was going on, a red light suddenly appeared before his eyes, and Ling Yanyan subconsciously reached out to block it. The red light flashed and then entered his brow.
Immediately afterwards, a massive stream of information flooded into his mind. This stream of information contained instructions on how to use various spells, talismans, and incantations.
Ling Yanyan was secretly surprised, not expecting Li Yun's magical skills to be so high. He began to cultivate according to the instructions in the information stream and quickly mastered the basics.
He took a deep breath to calm his excited emotions, and then tentatively channeled his spiritual energy into the bronze coffin.
At that moment, his spiritual energy was just enough to penetrate the heavy coffin lid and touch the skeletons.
The skeletons, nourished by the spiritual energy, rapidly decayed, turning into ashes that floated in the air. The sight was utterly bizarre and sent chills down one's spine.
However, Ling Yanyan had an exceptionally strong mental fortitude. He forced himself to calm down and focused on controlling the spiritual energy, allowing it to continuously cleanse the bones in the coffin.
Gradually, a peculiar fragrance filled the entire ancestral hall. Although the fragrance was not strong, it was invigorating and gave one a sense of energy.
This is the fragrance produced after the malevolent energy has been cleansed.
Ling Yanyan thought to himself: This feeling is really great, just like bathing in a spiritual spring.
