Chapter 196: The Ancient Ferocious Beast Qiongqi
It is impossible to conduct a deeper investigation based solely on the one-sided statements of the ghosts.
Su Chen strolled around the burial site of Linjia Village.
Probing underground with his spiritual sense, Su Chen "saw" a group of corpses.
All of them remained in the same posture as when they were in distress.
It was estimated that the number of corpses was at least one-third more than the number Su Chen encountered and initially controlled.
Su Chen felt a chill in his heart.
Even though he has been in this world for a long time, deep down he is still the flower-growing family member from his previous life who has been influenced by the values of modern society.
If this matter is indeed man-made.
Su Chen couldn't bear to think about how cruel a person could be to use the lives of an entire village as stepping stones.
Just as Su Chen was about to return, he noticed someone coming from a distance.
Su Chen immediately restrained his breath and teleported several feet away to hide his figure.
Through his spiritual sense, he quietly watched the two men he had seen before beside Lou Yao heading straight for Linjia Village.
"Is it here?"
The two people were looking at the compass and whispering.
"The coordinates are correct."
The man who spoke first glanced at his companion with disdain in the light of the flashlight and said, "We are the only ones here. Why are you so nervous?"
"It's so scary in the dark at night. What if another dirty thing shows up?" The shorter man shuddered.
"I heard that all the people in Linjia Village were killed and resentful. Their village was turned into a place of evil spirits. I heard that they even invited a big boss to perform a ritual."
The tall man was impatient to hear this, "So much nonsense, hurry up and do what the director ordered, so we can go home and sleep."
The director ordered them to do this privately, and there was no overtime pay.
He doesn't want to waste time on private matters.
Su Chen watched them take out a palm-sized jade pendant from their pockets, dig a hole about one meter deep, and throw the jade pendant in to bury it.
After the two of them walked away, Su Chen appeared again.
Su Chen moved his fingertips slightly, and the spiritual power automatically transformed into the shape of a small shovel, digging out the jade pendant again.
The front and back of this jade pendant are engraved with Qiongqi, one of the four ancient ferocious beasts.
Jade pendants should have been specially processed.
However, after being buried at the burial site of the Linjia Village people for only a few minutes, the jade pendant was already contaminated with evil spirits.
If you look closely, you can see a faint red light in the eyes of Qiongqi on the jade pendant.
Su Chen's expression turned completely cold.
There is no need for evidence or investigation now.
Su Chen dared to be certain that the tragedy of the Linjia Village people was deliberately committed by someone!
Qiongqi destroys trust and hates loyalty, and praises evil words.
Now it is contaminated with evil spirit.
If the evil spirit is nourished by it over time and then summoned, the real ancient evil beast Qiongqi will appear, controlled by the owner of the jade pendant, and kill everyone in sight.
If Su Chen guessed correctly, those ghosts would be the trigger for this person to completely control Qiongqi in the future.
Su Chen sneered a few times.
He immediately sat on the ground, formed seals with his hands and gathered a ball of spiritual power.
The spiritual power wrapped around the Qiongqi jade pendant with the power of the seal, and Su Chen slapped the Qiongqi jade pendant in his palm with both hands.
The jade pendant was completely penetrated by Su Chen's spiritual power, and the progress bar that was halfway through the appearance of Qiongqi was completely cleared to zero by Su Chen.
As Su Chen's spiritual power continued to remove the evil and dirty things in the jade pendant, the Qiongqi jade pendant soon became an ordinary jade pendant.
Click!
As soon as Su Chen withdrew his spiritual power, the jade pendant shattered into several pieces and fell to the ground.
Su Chen stood up and patted the weeds and dead leaves on his body. Through his spiritual sense, Su Chen found that a man dressed as a Taoist priest suddenly appeared at the edge of his spiritual sense, with murderous aura all over his body and heading straight for Linjia Village.
Obviously, he was the first to notice that something had happened to the Qiongqi jade pendant.
Su Chen was not surprised and had no intention of leaving at all.
He deliberately lured the owner of the jade pendant to show up so that he could deal with the jade pendant on the spot without setting up any barrier.
"who!"
"You dare to act rashly in front of me? You're seeking death!"
The Taoist priest noticed the strange aura coming from Linjia Village and felt both shocked and angry.
He rushed to Su Chen and looked at the young Su Chen in surprise and doubt. When he thought of the Qiongqi jade pendant that he had spent his entire life on, he couldn't help but get furious and didn't care about anything else.
"What a shameless kid!"
"Who gave you the guts to meddle in other people's business?"
The Taoist priest was very angry when he saw that Su Chen was still calm and composed.
He glared at Su Chen with some annoyance, feeling that Su Chen was provoking him.
"You little brat, you actually interrupted me. Who is your master? What's your name?"
"I will take you to their home today to ask them how they discipline their young people!"
As he spoke, the Taoist suddenly shook the dust in his hand towards Su Chen.
Although the dust looked light, it was filled with murderous intent when it was thrown towards Su Chen's face.
Bang!
Su Chen raised his hand, grabbed a piece of dead wood not far away and threw it at the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest couldn't avoid it, so he turned sideways and used the dust to hit the dead tree away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Chen turned around and ran away.
He controlled his speed so that the Taoist priest didn't realize that Su Chen was deliberately letting him go and deliberately lured him to chase him.
"stop!"
"Don't run if you dare!"
The Taoist priest chased after Su Chen in a rage, with murderous intent in his eyes.
We must not let this man go back alive, otherwise if this matter is exposed, not only will this plan fail, but those guys behind the scenes will not let him go!
The Taoist thought about it and used his ultimate move directly against Su Chen.
The Taoist priest took out a yellow talisman from a small bag in his arms.
These yellow talismans were the immobilization talismans and other amulets that he had studied for a long time before successfully writing.
Extraordinarily precious.
If he hadn't had to, he would never use it.
The Taoist priest threw the talisman at Su Chen's back, feeling extremely angry.
He must get back double the losses he suffered today from this brat!
Su Chen kept his spiritual sense open.
He had already noticed when the Taoist took action.
At first, Su Chen was quite curious about what level the Taoist yellow talismans in this world could draw.
When Su Chen saw it clearly, there was only disgust on his face.
No way, are Taoists so useless these days?
The yellow talisman he drew is not even as good as the one made by a cultivator who has just entered the body-tempering stage. How dare you treat such a rubbish as a treasure?
Su Chen felt disgusted, and when the Taoist's talisman was about to stick to his back, Su Chen turned around and pinched the talisman with his fingers in mid-air.
Then he shook his hand and threw the talisman back.
The Taoist priest was caught off guard by Su Chen's sudden counterattack.
Su Chen's speed was so fast that he was suddenly immobilized by his own immobilization talisman before he could even see the moves clearly.
The Taoist priest looked at Su Chen with horror as he suddenly approached.
"You, whose disciple are you?"
Why is he so strong at such a young age?
"Your immobilization talisman doesn't work. The body is immobilized and the person can still speak."
Su Chen clicked his tongue and shook his head.
The Taoist priest was angry and said, "If you have the ability, draw something amazing!"
"Did you develop the Qiongqi Jade Pendant?"
Su Chen's expression instantly turned cold, and he stared at the Taoist coldly: "In order to attract the real Qiongqi, you must have done a lot of experiments."
The Taoist's face froze, and he stubbornly shouted, "I don't know what you are talking about."
