A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Chapter 77: The truth is revealed and we go straight to Huanglong!
  "Who!"

Li Zhenguang's drunkenness disappeared in an instant, he pulled out the saber from his waist, stared at the darkness ahead as if facing a formidable enemy, and shouted:
  "get out!"

However, the next moment, the cold and illusory voice sounded again with a little playfulness:

"You dare to draw a knife on me?"

Clang!
  A golden light instantly tore through the darkness from one side and struck through the air. Before Li Zhenguang could even react, the long steel sword in his hand suddenly clanged and was broken into half!
  What's this! ?

Hidden weapon or illusion! ?
  Li Zhenguang didn't even see clearly what method broke the long steel sword in his hand. Li Zhenguang was immediately scared and almost jumped three feet high on the spot.

He looked around in horror as if he had thought of something. He felt as if there was an extremely terrifying monster lurking in the dark night, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Excellency, are you a guest in Tsing Yi?"

The voice in the darkness chuckled and responded:

"What do you say?"

Li Zhenguang's face suddenly turned pale and bloodless.

Weird sounds seemed to be coming from all directions. Although they were only two or three feet away from me, there was no trace of anyone at all.

Although the other party did not admit it directly, but with such a weird and terrifying method, who else could it be if it wasn't the Tsing Yi Guest?

Li Zhenguang, who was feeling cold all over and his scalp was numb, clenched his hands and cut off the knife, and said tremblingly:

"Your Excellency, I have no grievances with you in the past and have no enmity in the recent times. Why are you looking for me?"

"If it is for the purpose of pursuit and search, after all, your Excellency is using force to violate the prohibition. I wear the clothes of Jingwu Si, and my duty is to only act according to the orders of the superior. Why would you bother to trouble me, a small character like me?"

"In past cases, you have always hated evil and acted chivalrously. Is it possible that you are going to kill innocent people indiscriminately this time?"

Afraid that his head would be separated, Li Zhenguang spoke a lot, and the fear in his words was palpable.

At this moment, even Lu Yuan, who was two or three feet away and maintained his invisibility without showing his body, couldn't help but laugh.

He used his magic power to vibrate his voice, causing the sound to echo mistyly in the darkness, making it difficult to identify its location:

"There is no need to beg for mercy. Although you are greedy for money and lust, you have caught many criminal thieves during the Jingwu period. It is considered a small achievement. If I wanted to kill you, you would never have a chance to speak. The reason why I came here to look for you is There are some things I just want to ask, and I hope you can answer truthfully."

Hearing that the guest in Tsing Yi had no murderous intention, Li Zhenguang breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly:

"I see, your Excellency, please ask me. I will tell you everything I know. Even if there is something unclear, I will find a way to check it for you!"

Although these words sound really spineless.

But the person in front of him was a terrifying strongman who had killed great masters in the five realms. He, a small captain, had no room to refuse. If he wanted to survive, he had no other choice but to cooperate.

"very good."

Lu Yuan was still hidden in the darkness and spoke slowly:
  "Jingwu Division has the duty of supervision. Do you know if there are any Taoist masters who practice evil methods in Fengyang Mansion recently?"

"A Taoist master who practices evil magic?"

Li Zhenguang was stunned when he heard this:
  "I have never heard of this. Who are you talking about?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "In the past two or three months, there have been many disappearances in the city. Don't you, a captain, know about it?"

Li Zhenguang's heart skipped a beat and he said in surprise:
  "I have heard about this matter, but our governor did not allow us to intervene. Do you mean that these disappearances were caused by the Taoist masters you mentioned?"

Seeing Li Zhenguang asking questions, Lu Yuan was too lazy to talk nonsense. He raised his hand and a portrait flew out from the darkness:

"This is a portrait of that Taoist master. It may not be his true appearance. I want you to activate Jingwu Division's channels and informants to help me find this person as soon as possible."

Although Li Junxian had already said that he wanted to find out the news first, passive waiting was never his style, so he simply took the initiative.

Moreover, relying on him or Xu Dahu's men to find the fortune teller in the portrait is no different than looking for a needle. It would be more efficient to directly use Jingwu Division's manpower and channels to find it.

The portrait flew out of the darkness and landed at his feet. This strange method shocked Li Zhenguang again.

He quickly leaned down and unfolded the scroll, then subconsciously unfolded it for a look, and then his eyes changed slightly:
  "This person.?"

Lu Yuan immediately noticed that the other person's expression was slightly abnormal, and his eyes narrowed slightly:
  "What, have you seen the person in the portrait?"

Li Zhenguang's face was uncertain, but he did not dare to hide it and whispered:

"To be honest, the person in this portrait does look familiar. Our Lord Du Tongsuo invited three Taoist masters from Youxian Temple a few months ago to help out. One of them is 60 to 70% similar to this portrait. ,but"

"Youxian Temple?"

Lu Yuan said coldly:
  "Please tell me in detail about this view and the situation of those three masters!"

It was important to save his life, so Li Zhenguang told the truth without much hesitation:

"Youxian Temple is a Taoist temple canonized by the imperial court. It is not too far away from Fengyang Mansion in this province. This temple is said to be a Taoist temple, but it is actually a sect with a Taoist heritage. This temple was also a grand temple many years ago. , the inheritance has a long history, but it gradually withered and lost its reputation.

Although there are only about a hundred people in Youxian Temple today, the owner Chen Chuanying is a high-ranking mage who has practiced in the fifth realm. The two elders Qin Zekun and Yu Ronghua are both mage in the fourth realm. When I look at this portrait, His appearance is quite similar to that of the Taoist in glory, but I don't know if he is the same person."

Taoist masters of the Five Realms and Four Realms of Youxian Temple
  Based on what Li Jun said before, these three people fully meet the conditions and are undoubtedly highly suspicious.

Lu Yuan's voice became colder and he said slowly:

"Do you know where these three people are now?"

Li Zhenguang's expression changed and he said:

"They seem to be living in a house on the street next to Jingwu Si. It was arranged by our governor, and we are not allowed to disturb them on weekdays. Are they really stealing people in the city secretly and practicing evil magic? But"

As the captain of Jingwu Division, he naturally knows many more secrets than ordinary people.

At the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, the Jingwu Division was the main force in destroying mountains and temples, sweeping rivers and lakes, and even burning books and banning weapons.

In the secret files of Si Zhong's archives, there are records of many evil methods that use blood sacrifices of living people. Most of them focus on Taoism, either for practicing secret techniques or for sacrificing magical weapons.

Even now, among the internal wanted orders of Jingwu Division, there are still some ferocious evil masters who are roaming around to commit crimes and have committed numerous murders.

But he really couldn't imagine that the three Youxianguan people who were recruited here by Suo Helie dared to do such a heartbreaking thing under the eyes of Jingwu Si!
  unless
  Li Zhenguang was frightened as if he thought of some possibility.

"Yes or no, you will know when you find them!"

Lu Yuan, who was hidden in the darkness, said indifferently:

"I want to see what they have prepared to deal with me."

at the same time.

Jingwu Division.     Underground prison, in the execution chamber.

The jailers, guards and other idle people have been driven out. Du Tongsuo and Lie stood proudly, playing with a black bell no more than the size of a palm, frowning and saying:

"Is this the so-called Jingshen Bell?"

"good."

Beside him, Chen Chuanying, who was dressed in civilian clothes, still had a touch of joy in his eyes:
  "This magical weapon was actually made the day before yesterday, but it took some time for Pindao to cultivate and master its power, so I came here to show it to you today."

"This bell looks extraordinary."

After only holding it for a moment, there was a lingering cold and tingling feeling in his hand. Suo Helie threw the Jingshen Bell back to the opponent and expressed with his eyes:

"Then let me see your results in the past three months."

He signaled, and the two guards beside him immediately understood, walked into the depths of the dungeon, and grabbed a prisoner who was covered in scars but strong and with a fierce look on his face, and then hung him on the execution rack in the execution chamber.

The prisoner's hands and feet had been broken, and he kept screaming and cursing during the process.

After the person was tied up, Chen Chuanying just raised his hand expressionlessly, and the Jingshen Bell seemed to be controlled by an invisible force. It suddenly flew to the opponent and shook it suddenly:

jingle!

A strange bell rang suddenly in the torture chamber. When the sound reached his ears, even a master like Suo Helie, who was at the peak of the fifth level of blood refining, felt his heart beat suddenly.

"what--!"

The prisoner who was shrouded in front of the bell suddenly screamed with a distorted face. At the same time, his bound hands and feet struggled violently, causing the chains to rattle, as if his whole body was being tortured by Lingchi.

Subsequently.

Chen Chuanying made a hand seal, and the shocking bell suspended in front of the prisoner rang quickly again, and the sound seemed to be extremely strangely concentrated in a certain area and did not spread.

After the bell rang, the prisoner's eyes suddenly popped out, his face was extremely ferocious and terrifying, and then scarlet blood snakes snaked down from his eyes, nostrils and other seven orifices!

In an instant, an expression of extreme pain froze on his face, and his head suddenly dropped, making no sound anymore.

Seeing such a result, even Suo Helie's expression couldn't help but change.

Because the prisoner on the torture rack is a fierce thief who was caught just last month. He has a cultivation level in the bone forging realm, and he cannot be considered weak in terms of martial arts or mental will.

However, such a prisoner, who was considered a master among the people, died just after being rang twice by a bell!

Such power is incredible.

At this time, Chen Chuanying turned around and smiled:
  "Lord, I have seen the power of the Jingshen Bell. This is only part of its power. In addition to directly attacking people's souls, the sound of this bell also has the effect of awakening and shocking the soul.

If someone around you is under the illusion, a ring of this bell can dispel it on the spot on a large scale. As the master of the magic weapon, Pindao's mental power will be further increased. Even if Qingyi Ke is a genuine six-level high-gong mage, Don't even try to hide it from me. "

Staring at the Jingshen Bell in the opponent's hand, there was something strange and eager in Suo Helie's eyes:
  "So, this Jingshen Bell is really extraordinary."

Taoist Yu said confidently: "This is natural. This is an important weapon of my Youxian Temple. With this thing, we, the temple masters, will be able to assist you in hunting down the guest in green!"

The elder Qin Zekun on the side said with a hint of laughter:

"It's a pity that it is difficult to refine this thing. It also requires sufficient Taoist cultivation and the secret method of my Youxian Temple to control it. Even if others get it, it will be difficult to exert much effect."

"Is it?"

Hearing this, Suo Helie glanced at the Jingshen Bell which was put away by Chen Chuanying expressionlessly:
  "As long as this thing in your hands can deal with the Tsing Yi guest. Since the last time, this beast has not made a move for a month. I have arranged for people to start arranging the game. The three of you should prepare as soon as possible. This time I will also personally participate , once you take action, you can only succeed and not fail, otherwise"

Chen Chuanying smiled slightly, bowed his head indifferently and said:

"Lord Suo, you can rest assured. If you still can't win over Qingyi Guest this time, I, Youxian Guan, am willing to accept all punishments from the court."

"it is good."

Suo Helie said no more and waved his hand:

"Everyone, please go back and recharge your batteries first. I will send someone to notify you when the arrangements here are almost complete."

"it is good."

Chen Chuanying and the other three people said no more, immediately bowed slightly, said goodbye and left.

After leaving Jingwusi, the three of them rode in a carriage without saying anything, and soon returned to the house where they had lived secretly for three months.

When the carriage outside left and returned to the central hall, Chen Chuanying looked at the two people and sighed softly:

"Elder Qin, Junior Brother Yu, thank you both for your help during these three months. Elder Qin assisted me in practicing day and night, and I don't know how much energy was wasted. Junior Brother Yu took the risk of exposure and showed up to find someone who met the conditions. Talented people, without you, I don’t know when this bell would be refined.”

Qin Zekun coughed lightly and said:

"Master, why should you be so polite? Youxian Temple is the place where I was born and raised. Nowadays, Taoism has declined, and the original temple has also declined due to various accidents. In addition, the times have changed greatly and it is urgent to suppress the fate of such a heavy weapon. I, an old guy, can do something for future generations." Seeking happiness can be regarded as making the best use of everything.”

Taoist Yu also smiled and said:
  "Senior brother, what did you say? Compared to you and Elder Qin, what I did was not as hard as it was time-consuming. Now that it's done, it's all worth it. By the way, the corpses with so many materials are still in the backyard. Buried in it, do we have to deal with it again?”

"It doesn't matter, just stay here, Suo Helie will take care of it."

Chen Chuanying shook his head and said:

"Having said that, I still want to thank you two. It's not too late, you two should go back and rest."

"The temple owner should also rest early."

Taoist Yu and Qin Zekun got up one after another and went back to their houses to rest.

Wait until the two of them leave.

Chen Chuanying also returned to her room, but she had no intention of sleeping. Instead, she took out the Jingshen Bell again and admired it, as if facing her lover.

Feeling the cold and lively aura on the magic weapon, he then sat cross-legged, and the power of his soul extended out like invisible tentacles, wrapping the bell and continuing to nourish it.

The Jingshen Bell has just been refined, and its power actually still has a lot of room for growth. It is not yet an important weapon to suppress a sect. Only by continuously cultivating it with the power of his soul day and night can it be possible to restore the power of the Jingshen Bell to the past. level.

but.

Not long after he started cultivating the Jingshen Bell.

"what--!"

Suddenly, an extremely shrill scream came from outside the house, making Chen Chuanying startled and he suddenly opened his eyes.
