Chapter 614: Soul Burial Treasure Book
Master Li's consciousness moved, and the ancient scroll quickly unfolded in his hand like an obedient spiritual pet.
Four ancient seal characters "Burial of Souls Treasure Mirror" were revealed inside.
Maybe it took too long, and all four fonts are a little bit damaged. On the surface of the scroll, strange runes in the shape of shackles radiated out, exuding a long-lasting ghostly spirit. The ghostly spirit was so strong that people dared not look directly at it.
Master Li's eyes under the dark circles lit up, and immediately he raised his hands, and the Soul Burial Treasure Book hovered in the air opposite him like a bird.
Without stopping for a moment, Master Li skillfully hit two magic formulas on it.
At the same time, he silently recited the curse of not transmitting ghosts in his heart: "Baojian ghosts, listen to my driving, pathfinding ghosts, come out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light flashed above the Soul Burial Treasure Mirror, and a gray ghost mist emerged.
As soon as the ghost mist subsided, a small two-headed dog spirit appeared on the ground in front of Master Li.
This two-headed dog spirit is just a spirit body, not a real living creature. Its whole body exudes a faint light, and each dog has a single horn on its forehead. It grins with bared teeth, sharp claws and erect ears, giving it a fierce look.
As soon as the two-headed dog spirit saw the Soul Burial Treasure Book in mid-air, it immediately made a submissive gesture with its tail tucked between its legs.
"Go and find the place with the strongest ghosts on the land." Master Li ordered seriously.
The two-headed dog spirit immediately lowered its nose and sniffed back and forth on the ground. On the originally empty ground, there was actually a slight trace of ghostly energy, which was sucked into the mouth and nose of the two-headed dog.
"Woof woof!"
After a while, the two-headed dog looked in one direction and barked twice.
When Master Li saw this, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, and then he threw out two gray-white pills.
"It's your reward."
The two heads of the two-headed dog opened their mouths at the same time, firmly caught the pill, and swallowed it each, then kept wagging the two tails behind it towards Master Li.
With one move of one hand, Master Li dragged the Soul Burial Treasure Mirror into his palm and ordered: "Obideous puppy, lead the way."
The two-headed dog seemed to understand Master Li's words, sniffing the scent of the surrounding environment and wagging its tail to lead the way.
"My path-finding ghost dog is quite useful. Two little girls, let's follow it." Master Li turned around and said.
"Master Li, your ability to exorcise ghosts and summon spirits can be regarded as one of the unique skills in the Tiangui Sect. When I saw it today, you are really brilliant. If you can secretly teach me one or two of these tricks, Haitang and I will benefit a lot. "Hong Haitang said, deliberately approaching Master Li, flattering and begging.
"My sister Haitang is my father's beloved disciple. She is talented and intelligent. Master Li, if you teach her the ability to exorcise ghosts and summon spirits, you will definitely make this skill of yours flourish." Ning Lin'er on the side helped.
"I can't learn, I can't learn." Master Li shook his head repeatedly, "The godfather and godmother of this little girl Haitang are Ning Tianqi and Yu Qingcheng, the two hall masters. Their methods are much better than mine, Old Li. I am so driven The art of summoning ghosts is too gloomy. If a little girl learns it, it will be difficult for her to find her husband's family. "
Hong Haitang curled her lips when she heard this and stopped continuing the topic. She thought to herself that she just didn't want to teach me. Anyway, I have my godfather and godmother to teach me my skills, which is enough.
Needless to say, Ning Tianqi is also the leader of the evil ghost hall and the wind ghost hall of the Tiangui Sect. His cultivation and ability are among the top in the entire Tiangui Sect. Yu Qingcheng is also a powerful character as the leader of the Huahun Hall, one of the Tiangui Sect's battle halls. Since it is a battle hall, the hall masters are known for their high martial arts and good at actual combat, and their actual fighting ability far exceeds that of monks of the same level.
Afterwards, the two-headed spirit dog led the way, followed by Master Li, Ning Lin'er and Hong Haitang. The figures of the three people and the dog gradually disappeared.
...
Half a day later.
Master Li, Ning Lin'er and Hong Haitang appeared in an unknown valley.
at this time.
The two-headed spirit dog leading the way suddenly stopped and circled in circles, unwilling to use its nose to smell the scent on the ground.
The three Master Li who were following behind were also forced to stop their progress.
"Huh? It seems that the spirit dog has smelled something he doesn't like." Master Li looked back and forth, narrowed his eyes, and with a burst of mana, he shot out a spiritual light from the Soul Burial Treasure Book in his hand, and the two-headed spirit The dog rolled up and took it back. Then he put the Soul Burial Treasure Mirror back into his sleeves.
Although this two-headed spirit dog is only the body of a ghost, it is also extremely rare. He has a naturally powerful sense of ghost smell and can smell ghost scents hundreds of miles away.
The seals arranged by the Tiangui Sect in the Green Fire Demon Realm thousands of years ago were implemented using the secret method of the supreme ghost way. Master Li specially collected some of the ghost spirits in them according to the records in the sect's classics, and let the spirit dog know about it. .
Master Li possesses thousands of secret skills of the Ghost Sect and is good at finding paths. This is also the reason why Ning Tianqi handed over this task to Master Li.
Since the Tiangui Sect's mission to find the seal from a thousand years ago is carried out in secret, there are only three people. Ning Lin'er, who is good at setting up and repairing formation seals, volunteered. And Hong Haitang heard that this time, the Yu Dao Sect might also send elite disciples to the Green Fire Demon Realm, and her favorite Zhan Yunfei might be on the list. Therefore, I asked to participate in this mission.
When Ning Lin'er and Hong Haitang saw this, they immediately stood beside Master Li.
"Master Li, did you notice something happened?" Hong Begonia whispered.
After saying this, Hong Begonia stretched out one hand, and a red flame burst into flames in her palm.
Master Li nodded, but didn't say anything. His eyes under the dark circles were fixed on a dense forest in front of him.
He stretched out his finger and flicked it towards the opposite side. With a pop, a gray-white ghost arrow broke through the air.
With a "bang".
Half of the ghost arrow was embedded in a tree trunk as thick as a bucket on the opposite side.
Then, a ball of gray-white soul fire ignited, and the big tree was instantly ignited. After a moment, it fell to the ground with a bang, splashing dust and fire. After a moment, not even ashes were left.
The three stood there and observed.
Not long after, Master Li stroked his beard with one hand, and then said loudly: "There was a figure hiding behind the big tree just now. It seems that he ran away? Since there may be danger in the forest ahead, let's take a detour."
Ning Lin'er and Hong Haitang nodded in agreement. In terms of experience in the martial arts world, the two girls still admired Master Li from the bottom of their hearts.
The three turned and left.
Shortly after the three left, a man sneaked out from behind a tree in the forest.
This man covered his face with an iron mask and wore a black robe. What was even more strange was that he was carrying a huge iron coffin on his back.
The iron-faced man looked at the direction where Master Li and the other two disappeared, and then looked at the tree that had just been burned by Master Li's ghost arrow, and whispered: "I just cast a spell to hide my whereabouts, but the spirit dog released by this old man discovered the clues. This old man's ghost arrow is authentic. I'm afraid that only the disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect in the entire Northern Territory can use such authentic ghost moves. It seems that these three people should be disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. The shadow master has ordered that except for a kid named Xu Yang in the Heavenly Ghost Sect, all others can be killed. But there are three of them. It won't be too late to kill these three people after I find helpers."
As soon as he finished speaking, the iron-faced man turned into a shadow and disappeared on the spot.
......
At this time, Master Li and the other two had walked far away.
"Master Li, you said that the person hiding behind the tree just now was probably a thief who wanted to attack us secretly. Then why didn't we chase him and catch him and interrogate him first?" Hong Haitang said.
"It is a taboo in a fight that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. Although we have found the location of that person, we don't know his details or how many people there are. Moreover, this person's methods are unusual. There are not many things that can make my path-finding spirit dog taboo, and corpse poison is one of them. Therefore, this person should be a person who is good at using corpse poison. The terrain in the dense forest is complicated and it is not easy for us to dodge. If we want to compete with him, we must choose a place with open terrain." Master Li explained.
"Master Li is right. In a fight between two sides, the side that controls the terrain is often the key to victory. Our formation workshop is specialized in arranging formations and using formations to create advantages in terrain to influence the situation of the battle." Ning Lin'er said.
Hong Haitang nodded after hearing this.
"What Lin'er said is right, and that man was not scared away by my ghost arrow just now. The arrow I shot was just a warning to him. He ignored my warning and hid aside. So, I concluded that he would come to us again, and he might bring helpers. So, I will trouble Lin'er next." Master Li said.
"Lin'er understands, let's give him a taste of his own medicine." Ning Lin'er said obediently.
The three walked forward for a distance.
Master Li looked up and looked around. As far as his eyes could see, there was a large low grassland with a wide view.
Master Li stopped and said, "I think the grassland in front is a good place. On the surface, there seems to be no place to hide here, which will make the opponent look down on it. Setting up a formation here to kill him must be unexpected. In addition, the opponent is good at using poison, and the open terrain around here is also convenient for us to guard against."
"Okay, leave it to me next." Ning Lin'er said confidently.
Next, Ning Lin'er took out a square and exquisite wooden box from the storage bag. Opening the wooden box, a stack of emerald green formation flags were neatly placed inside.
Ning Lin'er took out all the formation flags and threw them to the corresponding corners skillfully.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
These formation flags fell into the grassland like butterflies flying through flowers and disappeared.
Not long after, the formation was set up.
"Master Li, my set of "Green Field Without Trace" formation is set up." Ning Lin'er said.
Master Li nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, a full 7749 formation flags, which can be regarded as the ultimate in small formations. Combined with my exorcism and soul-sending skills and Miss Haitang's soul-fire skills, it should be quite powerful."
Hong Haitang raised her eyebrows and said, "No matter what kind of corpse poison that person uses, he will be reduced to ashes in the soul-fire in a while."
Master Li looked back and made a move with one hand.
When he opened his palm again, there were two bright spots the size of rice grains in his palm.
Looking closely, they were two firefly soul insects, not entities.
Master Li opened his mouth and sucked the two rice-sized soul bugs into his mouth.
The next moment, Master Li's eyes turned pale blue, and two blurry figures appeared in his pupils. It is certain that one of them seemed to be carrying an iron coffin on his back.
Master Li exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the strangeness in his eyes disappeared, and then he said: "The people we are waiting for are here, there should be two people. If the other party has more people, we can just run away."
Ning Lin'er and Hong Haitang on the side saw this and cast their surprised eyes at the same time. One is to admire Master Li's methods, and the other is to admire Master Li's shrewdness.
Master Li seemed to understand the two girls' thoughts at the moment and joked, "What old guy doesn't have some cunning tricks?"
