I am practicing in the Taoist world to gain proficiency

Chapter 166 Dead End
Qin Xuan didn't even think about it. He dodged directly behind a tall stone pillar and used the stone pillar to hide his figure.

And at the moment when he had just hidden his figure, the sound of heavy footsteps sounded, and a figure wearing animal skin clothes, with a thin body, sluggish eyes, full of lifelessness, pale face, and almost no life on his body. , and walked directly into the stone chamber.

The stone chamber fell into darkness.

But immediately after, the light of the night pearl came on, illuminating the stone chamber again.

With a bang, the man, who was wearing animal skin clothes and had a skinny build and looked about 40 years old, threw the body he was carrying on his back under the coffin.

Qin Xuan poked his head out from behind the stone pillar.

When his eyes fell on the man who was wearing animal skin clothes and looked like a dead man, his eyes couldn't help but condense deeply.

At the same time, my heart suddenly became extremely uneasy.

The man's aura was extremely powerful, even compared to Liang Shangyu.

This is obviously a strong man at the peak of Huayuan Realm.

Zombies?

Corpse puppet?

Is this someone from the Black Spirit Sect?
Couldn't he be the Black Spirit Sect master who was expelled from the market association and destroyed all the zombie puppets?
Is he hiding here just to use the general's corpse to make zombie puppets?
An idea flashed through Qin Xuan's heart, and his face turned green.

At the same time, in my heart, I was secretly worried.

Facing such a powerful person at the peak of Huayuan Realm, even if all the opponent's zombie puppets were destroyed, there was no way he could be his opponent.

Therefore, Qin Xuan made no sound at all by hiding his breath.

At the same time, his eyes quickly swept over the skinny, zombie-like man, and no longer looked at him.

Strong people at this level are all people with strong senses. If they keep staring at each other, they will have strange reactions, and they may discover Qin Xuan's whereabouts.

However, as he looked away, Qin Xuan's eyes inadvertently glanced at the body thrown on the ground by the skinny man.

As a result, Qin Xuan's eyes froze again in an instant.

His eyes were fixed on the corpse.

Is he from the Municipal Council?

Moreover, he is also a disciple of a high-level elite training center?

The reason for making such a judgment was that Qin Xuan was able to distinguish it through the service of this corpse.

The Municipal Dao Association itself has its own unique clothing, and the disciples of the Advanced Elite Training Center have made certain distinctions between the clothing of ordinary disciples of the Municipal Dao Association.

This is why Qin Xuan recognized the identity of the corpse as soon as he saw the clothes on the corpse.

As a result, he couldn't help but feel more nervous.

And this corpse was obviously recently dead.

Judging from the shattered bones on his back, there were five deep bloody holes scratched out by sharp nails.

This corpse was obviously scratched to death by internal organs such as the blood claws of the Black Spirit Sect zombies.

The corpse, at this time, was still staring with its eyes wide open. Coincidentally, what it was looking at was exactly where Qin Xuan was.

This made Qin Xuan feel extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

He quickly looked away, no longer looking at the corpse.

But the thin man from the Black Spirit Sect started to take action at this time.

He directly picked up the body of this senior elite disciple from the Underground Shang Dao Society and lifted it up with one hand.

With the other hand, he pressed on the corpse.

The billowing black energy was directly forced into the body of the corpse.

So, driven by the billowing black energy, a blood that looked much brighter than ordinary blood and contained a certain strange spirituality was expelled from the body of this senior elite disciple by this skinny man. out.

Blood starts dripping automatically.

The skinny man immediately used his hand to lead him away.

As a result, the blood, as if under control, turned into a blood arrow and shot directly at the general's mummy on the coffin lid.

The blood dripped on the general's mummy and was quickly absorbed by the general's mummy.

Make a corpse!

This is using the spiritual blood of monks to create zombies!
Qin Xuan's hair stood on end, and he instantly guessed the purpose of this skinny man.

He quickly gathered his breath and didn't make any sound.

At the same time, inside, I became more and more nervous.

Judging from this situation, I am afraid that once he is discovered, the consequences will definitely be the same as that of the killed high-level elite. His spiritual blood will be extracted and the corpse of a general will be used as nourishment to make high-level zombie puppets. Bar?

Realizing this, Qin Xuan did not dare to make any sound.

At the same time, in his heart, he strongly hopes that this thin man from the Black Spirit Sect can extract spiritual blood as soon as possible, and then go out again to find other objects that can provide spiritual blood for making high-level zombie puppets.

Then, he can take the opportunity to escape.

However, things turned out to be the opposite.

When the thin man from the Black Spirit Sect was forcing out the spiritual blood from the corpse of the senior elite disciple, he suddenly seemed to have discovered something and looked around.

His gaze soon fell on the ground in the cave.

On the ground, because no one came in over the years, there was originally dust everywhere.

And he himself had been staying in the cave for some time.

Naturally, there were footprints left on the dust.

In fact, because he stayed for a longer time, there were more footprints left in the cave.

However, he clearly remembered that although he had stayed in this cave for a long time.

But he has never walked towards the edge of the cave and the direction of the stone wall.

Now, what's going on with the extra footprints on the edge of the stone wall?

Also, this footprint is obviously different from my own footprints.

It's even less likely that he stayed behind.

Ha ha!

A hint of coldness suddenly flashed across the skinny man's face.

His gaze suddenly wandered around, and finally, based on the footprints, accurately landed on the stone pillar where Qin Xuan was hiding.

The skinny man spoke with an extremely cold tone, but the words he spoke sounded like eternal ice that would never melt, "Are you going to come out on your own? Or will you let me drag you out?"

Found out?

How can it be?

Qin Xuan, who was hiding behind the stone pillar, was suddenly startled.

At the same time, my heart quickly sank.

At first, he was still confused.

But then, in the blink of an eye, when his eyes fell on the ground and he scanned the footprints left by him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and his heart was filled with despair.

"Haha, fellow Taoist, I just went to the wrong place for a moment. I should leave immediately. How about you pretend that you haven't seen me?"

Standing up from behind the stone pillar, Qin Xuan smiled as much as possible on his face and spoke to the skinny man in a consultative tone.

"A member of the Huarong City Taoist Association? There is a high-level elite disciple? Haha, it seems that my luck is very good."

After seeing Qin Xuan clearly, the skinny man immediately beamed with joy and burst into laughter.

At the same time, he directly stopped the action of continuing to extract spiritual blood, and threw the body of the senior elite disciple of the Huarong City Taoist Association in his hand directly on the ground.When Qin Xuan heard this, he secretly complained in his heart.

For a moment, I couldn't help but regret coming out wearing the clothes of a senior elite disciple of the Municipal Dao Association.

However, on the other hand, he also knew that even if he was not wearing the clothes of a senior elite disciple of the Municipal Dao Association, there was absolutely no way that this corpse puppet strongman of the Black Spirit Sect would let him go.

The Black Spirit Sect is an evil heretic who does all kinds of evil and uses all kinds of methods.

It is simply impossible for him to be let off just because he is not a senior elite disciple of the Municipal Taoist Association.

What's more, it is making high-level zombie puppets, which itself requires the spiritual blood of monks.

In this way, it becomes even more impossible to let him go.

"Why bother, fellow Taoist? If I try my best, even if the fellow Taoist can kill me, the fellow Taoist himself will probably suffer huge trauma, right?"

Qin Xuan had a dark face and tried to discuss with the other party in a calm manner.

At this time, of course he hoped that the other party would be frightened by him and let him go.

That's the best outcome.

However, this skinny man saw through Qin Xuan's cultivation level at a glance and knew that he was in the middle stage of Huayuan Realm.

How could you let him go?
You know, although the middle stage of Huayuan Realm is much stronger than the early stage of Huayuan Realm, the gap is still a bit big compared to the peak of Huayuan Realm.

After all, the peak of the Huayuan Realm itself is not far from the Yuan Qi Realm.

Compared with the ordinary Huayuan realm, there have been certain qualitative changes.

Therefore, after listening to Qin Xuan's words, the thin man couldn't help but sneer, curled his lips, and looked at Qin Xuan with a look of disdain all over his body, "Causing huge trauma to me? Just you?"

"Boy, I advise you, it's best to capture him without any effort, so as not to suffer hardship. Otherwise, if you let me do it myself and waste my energy, I will definitely let you endure all kinds of suffering and die."

When Qin Xuan heard this, his face turned completely dark.

My heart sank to the bottom completely.

At this point, he still didn't know that it was useless to say anything in front of the other party.

Even if he knelt down and begged, there was absolutely no way this person would let him go.

With his eyes focused, Qin Xuan took action without hesitation.

His body shape changed, and suddenly a layer of mist rushed up.

Immediately afterwards, under the mist, his figure quickly disappeared.

Even this thin man was shrouded in mist by Qin Xuan in an instant.

Illusion?

Before his eyes, the scene completely changed and turned into an unfamiliar scene.

The eyes of this skinny man couldn't help but twitch immediately.

Obviously, he could see through at a glance that what Qin Xuan used was some kind of illusion method.

Qimen illusions have strange methods. Generally speaking, if you encounter an opponent who is not very strong, you can still cause a lot of trouble to the opponent.

However, when this skinny man saw the illusion performed by Qin Xuan, a look of disdain immediately appeared on his face.

He himself suddenly curled his lips in disdain.

Then, he touched it directly on his body.

Finally, a strange talisman was taken out.

This talisman is as long as two fingers and as wide as two fingers. It is made of a white rough paper.

However, unexpectedly and unexpectedly, there was lightning flashing on it.

There was a clack.

As the skinny man hit two fingers in his right hand, clamped the talisman and shook it, a thunderous sound immediately flashed out.

In mid-air, at the same time, a thunderbolt was drawn.

So, the next moment, the entire space where the cave was located shook suddenly because of the appearance of the thunderbolt.

Then, the mist disappeared directly, as if it was split by a thunderbolt and dissipated invisible.

At the corner of the cave, Qin Xuan's figure appeared, but his face was extremely pale.

The other party, who was an evil heretic from the Black Spirit Sect, actually had a talisman like a thunderbolt in his hand, which he had never thought about and could not imagine at all.

As we all know, the method of thunder and lightning itself belongs to the authentic Xuanmen sect.

Not only does it have extraordinary and magical effects in suppressing evil, but it also has a special restraint effect on illusions.

So in the end, just now, Qin Xuan's magic illusion was completely destroyed by the strike of this thunderbolt talisman.

"How dare you cast a mere illusion in front of me?"

The man was as skinny as a zombie, with his hands behind his back, looking at Qin Xuan calmly and calmly, as if he were looking at a dead person.

At this moment, a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

However, coupled with his weird zombie-like appearance, this smile appeared extremely charming when it appeared on his face.

"Boy, tell me, how do you want to die?"

The other party's cold voice made Qin Xuan feel chilled in his heart.

At the same time, the illusion was broken, which made his heart completely hit the bottom, and he fell deeply into despair.

The gap in strength is too big. Facing the opponent, I have no chance of winning.

Cold sweat rolled down his face instantly.

At this time, Qin Xuan naturally had no intention of answering the other party's questions.

He was like a pitiful little beast forced into a corner, looking at the other party with vigilant eyes, guarding against possible attacks from the other party at any time.

On one side, his eyes kept shifting, observing the surrounding environment, and quickly looking for a way to escape.

Fortunately, the stone chamber was not big, so Qin Xuan quickly scanned the stone chamber with the corner of his eyes.

There is a huge and thick stone door blocking the entrance of the cave, and next to the stone door, there is a stone pillar that controls the mechanism to open the mechanism and exit from the stone chamber.

Qin Xuan's eyes swept over the stone pillar and then quickly moved away.

It takes time to open the mechanism. It is obviously impossible for him to have time to calmly open the stone door and escape in front of the thin man in front of him.

It is impossible for the other party to give him such an opportunity.

Therefore, Qin Xuan immediately gave up this idea.

His eyes continued to wander, and soon he landed on the sarcophagus and the general's ancient corpse.

The brilliance of the night pearl shines on the ancient corpse, as dim as a bean.

So that in his eyes, this ancient corpse didn't look very clear.

However, despite this, Qin Xuan also suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his heart suddenly moved.

At the same time, a joy quickly welled up in his heart.

Then, he suddenly jumped up, and like a goshawk, he quickly rushed towards the entrance of the stone cave.

The goal is to control the stone pillar of the stone gate.

At the same time, when Qin Xuan jumped out, his body was transferred directly in the air. With a raise of his hand, the long sword in his hand was released from its sheath. It was used as a hidden weapon and was thrown directly at the thin man.

He seemed to be trying to block his progress, lest the other party stop him from leaving.
