Pick up the treasure bag and start cultivating immortals from the shrinking lamp.

Chapter 16 Skull Monster

The continuous explosions and the roars of the mastiffs woke up most of the residents in the Xu-shaped shantytown from their dreams.

Soon, figures came from all directions.

Liu Sheng’s three houses are built with purple cloud bamboo, a common spiritual bamboo with a tough texture.

But at this moment it was crumbling, some parts were still burning, and the inside was a mess, with blood and flesh scattered everywhere. A person with a weak heart would have vomited after seeing this scene.

"Is this Liu Sheng's residence? How come it's in this state! Could it be that a robber cultivator is coming to attack?" a middle-aged man said in shock.

He is Zhou Hai, the deputy captain of the night patrol team. His cultivation has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, so he rushed over as soon as possible.

"Isn't that Captain Liu's body?"

A spiritual farmer looked at a broken arm at the door, swallowed, and was somewhat unbelievable.

"Go and ask Mr. Zheng to come over!" Zhou Hai looked solemn.

Mr. Zheng is the only person in the Xuzi shantytown who has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Although he is over a hundred years old, he still has a very high prestige in the slums.

Soon, Mr. Zheng was invited in. He was wearing a gray coat, his face was full of wrinkles, his fingers were thin, and he was holding a mahogany cane.

"Mr. Zheng!"

"Mr. Zheng!"

……

The surrounding spiritual farmers came forward to greet

Old Zheng has been through a lot and knows many people even in the inner sect of the Immortal Sect. Therefore, despite his old age and frailty, no one dares to neglect him.

"Mr. Zheng, this attack is massive and the situation is brutal. It is unprecedented in my Xuzihao shantytown in decades, so please take charge of the situation!" Zhou Hai said respectfully.

Mr. Zheng nodded, then stepped forward to investigate.

"Strange, there is not even the slightest spiritual power fluctuation at the battle scene!"

Mr. Zheng let out a sound of surprise.

"Could it be that a talisman like a high-explosive talisman was cast?" Zhou Hai replied.

"Absolutely impossible!"

Elder Zheng shook his head and said, "Any talisman is constructed by cultivators with spiritual power, and the high-explosive talisman is no exception. There is no spiritual power fluctuation here, which shows that it is not caused by the talisman!"

"How did such a tragic explosion scene come about?"

Zhou Hai was a little confused.

Elder Zheng was silent for a moment, and finally sighed and said, "I don't know either, let's report it to the sect!"

The next day, law enforcement disciples from the Sinong Hall came.

After some investigation, they said that it was caused by the special evil methods used by the demon sect, so the spiritual farmers in the shanty towns should be alert.

As for the property left behind by Liu Sheng, such as spiritual grains, spiritual rice, and the spiritual mastiff that guarded the house, they were all confiscated.

For a while, there was panic in the Xu area, and everyone felt threatened.

Even the atmosphere in several adjacent shantytowns became tense.

In my own bamboo house.

Xia Chen took out a storage bag, which was the size of a palm and had delicate patterns on it.

This was obtained from Liu Sheng's body.

This guy Liu Sheng must have killed many monks in secret, so he has more than one storage bag.

However, the other storage bags were damaged in the explosion, and the contents inside were annihilated by the force of space, which was a pity.

He opened the storage bag and found three jade slips and some spirit stones inside. After counting, there were about five hundred pieces.

"Could this jade slip contain some kind of magic skill?" Xia Chen quickly took it out.

When he probed his spiritual consciousness into the first jade slip, he found that it was actually a magic spell called "Skull Monster". It used the skulls of monks or monsters as materials to condense countless souls. Once it was refined, it could spray poisonous smoke, and anyone hit would die. Then the spell would devour their souls to increase its power.

"Skull demon..."

Xia Chen suddenly remembered the magic weapon of the ugly-faced Jie Xiu. It could release a huge skull and spit out poisonous smoke. In the end, it swallowed up the evil spirit that Sun Hui had summoned in the universal tent.

This is exactly the same as the description in "The Skull Monster".

"Is there some kind of connection between Liu Sheng, the fat Taoist, and the ugly-faced monk?" Xia Chen frowned slightly.

The second jade slip contained a martial arts technique called "Qingmu Sword Technique", which was quite powerful.

Xia Chen had seen it in the Kung Fu Pavilion of the Sinong Hall. It required eighty contribution points!

The third jade slip is a collection of spells titled "Detailed Explanation of Spiritual Plant Spells", which details spells such as "Genjin Sword Spell", "Earth Attraction Spell", "Yi Mu Chunhua Spell", and "Tianjin Thirteen Needles".

Many of these spells can only be practiced by spiritual plant husbands, for example, "Yi Mu Chun Hua Jue" is an upgraded version of "Cao Mu Jue", and "Geng Jin Jian Jue" is an upgraded version of "Geng Jin Jue".

"It's a pity that there is no orthodox method to practice it!"

Xia Chen sighed.

The efficiency of practicing Changchun Gong is too low, and it can only allow people to practice to the sixth level of Qi Refining. It is somewhat incapable of practicing any higher level.

However, the advanced technique of "Changchun Gong" "Yi Mu Changchun Jing" requires 130 contribution points, which is obviously not something that ordinary outer disciples can afford.

Then Liu Sheng must have practiced the "Yi Mu Chang Chun Jing" or a technique of the same level as the "Yi Mu Chang Chun Jing", otherwise he would not have broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.

But if there is an oath or curse, it cannot be enshrined on the jade slip.

In addition to the jade slips and spirit stones, there were also some scattered items.

For example, a bag of seeds looks like spiritual seeds, but I don’t know what kind they are.

There is also a stack of talismans, which are very diverse, such as flame talismans, corpse-transforming talismans, protective amulets, golden light talismans, diamond talismans, etc.

Liu Sheng and the fat Taoist priest Sun Hui were dealt with.

Liu Sheng lent five hundred low-grade spirit stones to the fat Taoist priest so that he could buy some powerful insect poisons.

This gave Xia Chen a headache. He was afraid that when he was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night, a few poisonous insects would crawl onto his bed and poison him to death.

Unless some formations are set up to guard the cave, once it is opened, no matter how poisonous the insect is, it will not be able to crawl in.

However, such formations are often incredibly expensive, costing hundreds or even thousands of spirit stones.

The most important thing is that basically no one in the entire Xu-shaped shantytown has set up a defensive formation. If I do it myself, it will be too conspicuous.

As for raising spirit dogs, that's not very reliable either.

Liu Sheng's spirit mastiff couldn't protect him from flying a mini plane, let alone the more hidden poisonous insects.

So he slept during the day and patrolled around the shantytown in his mini plane at night, looking for the fat Taoist priest.

Finally, seven days later, Xia Chen discovered a sneaky figure outside the shantytown with the help of the aircraft's thermal imaging night vision goggles.

He controlled the fighter jet, blended into the night, and watched from afar.

The stealth coating on the surface of the D-class mini fighter has been greatly upgraded and is better able to shield the spiritual consciousness of the monks, so there is no need to worry about being discovered.

The person who came was the fat Taoist priest Sun Hui. He had an invisibility talisman on his body and he carefully entered the shantytown.

The cloaking talisman can conceal the aura of a cultivator and block the cultivator's spiritual consciousness to a certain extent. Its function is similar to the invisible coating on the surface of an airplane.

However, the concealment talisman cannot conceal the body temperature of a monk, which is why Sun Hui was able to be discovered by the aircraft's thermal imaging night vision goggles.

"Finally waiting for you!"

Xia Chen sneered and flew the mini plane back to the shantytown.
