Under the moonlight.

The old man in black vomited black blood again, and his aura suddenly became weak.

"Boy, I will take you down with me even if I die!"

The old man in black also had black circles under his eyes, and his body was almost paralyzed. The poison had completely penetrated his heart.

But the old man in black was extremely unwilling at this time.

His ferocious face seemed to tear Li Jiuqing to pieces.

Just now, through Li Jiuqing's dodge, the old man in black also knew that he was tricked by someone, and the one who tricked him was a waste with almost no means of attack!

"Ong~"

At this time, the spiritual energy suddenly floated on the old man in black. Li Jiuqing was shocked when he saw this. He didn't care about anything else and retreated violently. Because his legs and feet were not good, he even used all four limbs.

The old man in black pinched the magic formula with his hands, and a talisman floated out of his sleeves, blooming with a terrifying red light.

"The sky is round and the earth is square, the law..."

"Puff..."

It's just...

Old Five in Black overestimated his physical condition. He forced his spiritual energy to move when the poison invaded his body, which directly caused the poison to be completely unsuppressed.

After a series of operations, he didn't even finish reciting the spell, and he spurted out a mouthful of reverse blood. Then his body shook twice, stared at Li Jiuqing, then leaned forward and fell to his knees.

"Hu~"

Li Jiuqing stood in front of Old Five in Black for a long time without rushing forward.

He didn't lack time.

About a dozen breaths later, Li Jiuqing threw the hatchet in his hand from a distance and chopped it on Old Five in Black's head.

"Puff..."

"Yeah."

The hatchet entered his body, and Li Jiuqing saw that Old Five in Black still had no reaction at this time, so Li Jiuqing nodded and went forward to check.

After turning his body over, Old Five in Black's seven holes were already bleeding.

Li Jiuqing smiled lightly, and then quickly touched the corpse.

A sharp dagger, three talismans, and a bottle of elixir, these were all the belongings of the old man in black. Apart from that, no extra sundries were found.

Li Jiuqing had seen the talisman in the "Da Chi Miscellaneous Notes" he had read before, so he could recognize it at a glance.

"Three fire talismans, not bad."

"Hide them first!"

The old man in black was a cultivator. For an evil cultivator like Li Jiuqing, the corpse of a dead person was also of great value.

He first took the old man in black to one side and covered him up, and then walked in the direction where the old man in black had just gone.

After more than half a month of observation, he also knew where the group hid the things. It was not far from here, and it was a cave that had been rearranged by five people.

After a while.

Li Jiuqing moved and pried open the stone that sealed the entrance of the cave, and then saw the items hidden there by the five people.

Take a look.

Those precious pearls and jade pendants were piled up in the cave like garbage.

Li Jiuqing didn't pay much attention to this, but focused his eyes on the jade box, on which there was a short stick-like object that was taken out with it.

"This is..."

[Ding! Detected the first-level middle-grade spiritual weapon 'Soul-catching Flute' (broken state). Do you want to recycle the causal value? ]

Looking at the pop-up prompt interface of the system, Li Jiuqing decisively chose no.

"It's actually a spiritual weapon."

"Although it's in a broken state, it's okay. You can use causal points to complete it later!"

Li Jiuqing muttered, and then inserted the soul-catching flute, which was less than 40 centimeters long, into his waistband and prepared to take it away.

After that, Li Jiuqing went forward again, opened the jade box, and found three bamboo slips and a jade pendant with fluorescence inside.

"What is this?"

Li Jiuqing picked up the bamboo slip and quickly scanned it.

"Five Poison Heart Sutra (Qi Training Chapter)"

"Five Poison Heart Sutra (Foundation Building Chapter)"

"This is it!"

"Foundation Building Heart Sutra!"

Li Jiuqing's breathing suddenly became rapid.

The first two bamboo slips recorded the essential cultivation heart sutras for cultivators.

But after Li Jiuqing's inspection, the "Qi Training Chapter" of the Five Poison Heart Sutra was complete, but the "Foundation Building Chapter" was much worse, with only a description of the initial stage of foundation building.

After reading for a while, Li Jiuqing put the bamboo slips back and took the third bamboo tube to open it and take a look.

The third bamboo slip recorded the three magics of cultivators.

"Spirit Snake Finger", "Golden Toad Step", "Poison Heart Flame".

The three magics were recorded very comprehensively, and the power introductions were also very impressive. For Li Jiuqing, who was now penniless, this was completely a timely rain.

Checking that the last jade pendant was the "Poison Infiltration" jade pendant according to the prompt sound given by the system, it stored some toxins needed to practice the Five Poison Heart Sutra.

Li Jiuqing was quite happy to see this.

"Hmm..." After putting the things away, Li Jiuqing nodded gently.

"It is not advisable to stay here for long."

As he spoke, Li Jiuqing looked at the sundries again, and his mind moved with a smile on his lips.

[Ding! A large number of causal objects detected, do you want to convert! ]

"Convert!"

Li Jiuqing did not hesitate at all. Although this large number of burial objects was extremely precious to Li Jiuqing now, they were also his death warrant. He did not have a storage ring or anything like that now. After taking them away, he would just hide them in another place, which would only increase his risk of being exposed.

As Li Jiuqing's mind moved, a black light flashed, and then the large number of treasures instantly turned into nothingness.

[Ding! Conversion successful, a total of 15706 causal points! ]

"Damn, it's so dark!"

Some of these burial objects would be extremely valuable in the mortal world, but the causal value given by the system is pitifully small. Li Jiuqing was relieved after just thinking about it.

The system determines the causal value not by the value of the items, but by how much causal value the items are stained with.

For example, a piece of gold that has been smelted and collected is compared with a copper coin that has been traded dozens of times. The causal value that can be converted from the gold may not be as much as the copper coin.

Even if this metaphor is magnified, even some newly refined spiritual tools and magic weapons need to be judged by the system based on the actual use.

Such a conversion probability and judgment, if placed in a novel, would be a huge poison point, the kind that Li Jiuqing himself could not stand.

Thoughts returned.

After doing all this, Li Jiuqing left with the bamboo slips and the short flute.

After leaving the cave, Li Jiuqing waved his right hand and took out a talisman that he had touched from the black-clothed old five.

Li Jiuqing had seen the black-clothed boss use this talisman during the long period of surveillance, so he learned how to use it by imitating him.

There are generally two ways to use talismans.

First, the spell is activated with the handprint, which only consumes a little spiritual energy. It is used when the oil is almost exhausted or when there is no hurry.

Second, the spiritual energy is activated. This is used when there is no time to chant the spell in the battle. After all, the first condition for the production of talismans is to be convenient and fast.

"Weng~~"

"Quick!"

"Boom~"

This is the first time that Li Jiuqing uses a talisman. He can only use spiritual energy to activate it without knowing the formula. As the spiritual energy in Li Jiuqing's body floats, the talisman in his hand blooms with a burst of spiritual light, turning into a ball of fire and flying out.

"Boom~~~"

The flames burned and burned some traces in the cave.

Li Jiuqing also roughly determined that activating a fire talisman consumed about one-third of his spiritual energy, which was very consuming for him who was only at the first level of Qi Refining.

After doing all this, the cautious Li Jiuqing waited for the flames to go out and returned along the same route. He stared at the footprints he left when he came here. Because of his lame leg, his footprints would be deep and shallow, so anyone who was interested could find him.

So on the way back, he tried to erase his footprints and the traces left when he observed this place.

Of course, he did this to delay the time he was discovered to the greatest extent.

On the way back.

Passing by the cave opened by the five people, Li Jiuqing was also hesitant in his heart. Now that he had the opportunity, should he go deep into the Li family mausoleum to take a look?
