TaiHao

Mountains of knives and seas of fire, endless killings, and bloody illusions covered Jiang Yuanchen. Punishments such as being tortured, beheading, pulling out the tongue, and frying in oil are all revealed in the fantasy.

Not only Jiang Yuanchen, Lin Zixuan, the Lin family's father and son, and Wang Baotou were also involved in the illusion. However, Lin Zixuan had a pure mind and honest character, and he easily saw through the illusion and stood beside Jiang Yuanchen. .

"This illusion seems to be for one's own karma?" Lin Zixuan asked confused.

Jiang Yuanchen looked at the remaining four people and said: "Yes, this book spirit is the punishment god born in this black book of executions, specializing in various punishments against sinners. We have no karma on our bodies, so we don't need to care about it. Zi’s innate magical powers. As for the four of them—"

The two young masters of the Lin family are powerless. One is a businessman and the other is a student. Neither of them has committed any crime. As for Lin Yuanzhao, although he had some debts due to his time as an official, he still had a lot of educational merits by working hard for the state, which was enough to resist the power of this illusion. Otherwise, Lin Yuanzhao would have been tortured to death for staying next to the black book all year round.

"Flaws aside, layman Lin can still be said to be a good official." Jiang Yuanchen's eyes drifted to Wang Captou at the end. This head catcher possesses the aura of an official and the protection of a soldier. In addition, he is not very evil in daily life, and he has not been punished by various punishments in the illusion.

"Presumably, you used this illusion to commit this murder in the city, right?" Jiang Yuanchen is proficient in illusions, and he also understands that those advanced illusions can pass through people's hearts and achieve the effect of confusing the real with the fake. Presumably executions such as burial alive and drowning were achieved through this illusion.

While smiling, Jiang Yuanchen walked towards the black book.

The green light on the black book shook, fierce fire, hot oil, and a rain of swords hit Jiang Yuanchen.

"How can such illusions hurt me?" Jiang Yuanchen saw the various punishments surrounding him and drew a purple five-pointed star on his chest. The stars dispersed the illusions cast by the black book.

Although Jiang Yuanchen has a great backer in the Taixu Taoist Sect, his current level of cultivation is similar to that of a casual cultivator. Without obtaining the real immortal cultivation techniques of Taixu Dao Sect, just using Zixia Jue to break through the foundation building is no different from those casual cultivators who break through by chance.

However, Jiang Yuanchen has been unable to return to the mountain due to various reasons, and his master also compensated him in another way. In addition to the basic immortal arts, he was given guidance on spells, seal scripts, and swordsmanship, and he distanced himself from casual cultivators through these techniques.

Just now, the "Stars Breaking the Illusion Curse" that Jiang Yuanchen cast was a spell passed down to him by Lin Zixuan, specifically used to target illusions.

Approaching the black book step by step, a burst of black energy flew out of the black book and turned into the appearance of a green-faced and fanged ghost in soap clothes.

"Don't come here!" The fierce ghost held a chain in one hand and a torture knife in the other, and shouted at Jiang Yuanchen who came over.

Smiling softly, Jiang Yuanchen continued to walk towards the black book: "What's wrong? Do you have any other tricks?"

Seeing that Jiang Yuanchen refused to listen to the dissuasion, the ghosts and gods waved the dark chain in their hands, and fifteen ghosts appeared out of thin air around Jiang Yuanchen, wailing in various ways.

Jiang Yuanchen couldn't help but frown as the ghosts cried and the demonic sounds filled his brain. He touched the black jade necklace on his neck with his left hand. In a flash of blue divine power, he used his divine power to force fifteen ghosts back.

"These ghosts are the people you are killing these days?" Jiang Yuanchen walked to the ghosts and gods after repelling the ghosts: "Are you using murder and execution to consolidate your priesthood?"

Seeing that these ghosts were of little use, the ghosts and gods swung the torture knife in their hands to attack Jiang Yuanchen.

"It's just an elf in a book. What's the point of a mere hundred years of practice?" Jiang Yuanchen said lightly, ignoring the slashing knife, and stretched out his hand to gently poke the ghost and god's body. The green-faced and fanged ghost and god instantly dissipated, replaced by A tiger-like slap monster lies on top of the black book.

"You use the act of punishing evil to consolidate the power of Shinto, but you can't attack good people at will!" Jiang Yuanchen didn't care what ghosts and gods did to him, and explained to the monster in front of him: "Don't you even have this common sense? Not sure? No wonder I haven’t even reached the realm of wandering gods yet!”

"Is this Bi'an?" Lin Zixuan followed Jiang Yuanchen and recalled the fragments of the mythical beast he had seen in the inner door: "That's right. Bi'an was originally a divine beast in charge of justice. It makes sense that he was born with an awe-inspiring righteousness with evil aura. However, , Why is this Bifan so weak?" Bifan is a dragon-born, and as a sub-dragon, it should not be weaker than the golden elixir.

"It's not a real beast, it should be the figure drawn by senior Wu Ziming on the punishment book, right?" Jiang Yuanchen flicked his fingers and flicked the beast away from the black book, and then pointed at the one on the front of the black book. Tiger Head Pattern said.

After the beast was bounced away by Jiang Yuanchen, it immediately rushed back and bit Jiang Yuanchen's finger.

"There is no way for me to kill evil people. If you really dare to hurt me, then the little magic power you have just condensed will probably really dissipate."

"You -" Bi An suddenly stopped when he was about to take the mouth, and glared at Jiang Yuan Chen fiercely with his teeth bared.

"Junior brother, what do you mean, the reason why this book spirit kills people outside is completely instinctive behavior. It wants to use killing and punishing evil to improve its own spirituality, so as to consolidate the divine status and legal power?"

All things are animistic, and many elves will use instinct to strengthen their own spiritual practice. Just like the spirits of plants and trees can absorb vitality, the instinct of this book spirit is to improve its spirituality by punishing evil and killing people, and then transform into a true god with the help of spiritual growth.

"So at first, it instinctively went to the prison to look for death row inmates. But there are currently only three death row inmates in this city, so in order to continue to condense his divine power, he can only look for those who have committed the most heinous crimes on his own."

While Jiang Yuanchen was talking, the beast was jumping back and forth beside him. Jiang Yuanchen threw him out of the study and watched as it crawled back on its own.

"Even the local land god cannot incorporate all the changes in local creatures into his heart, let alone this elf that has not yet truly become a god? It is in the Lin Mansion, so it can only find some guilty people through the Lin Mansion. Those The deceased just had some involvement with the Lin Mansion, and it followed the clues and saw past crimes with its innate clairvoyance, and killed them. Right?" Jiang Yuanchen patted the tiger's head and asked Bian.

Biwan stretched out his claws and slapped Jiang Yuanchen's palm away: "Yes, it was when those people entered the Lin Mansion or wandered around the Lin Mansion that I could see their sins with my eyes and leave marks on them. Punishment for all kinds of sins.”

"Okay!" Jiang Yuanchen picked up the black book: "Then this matter is settled, and the real murderer has been determined. How are senior brothers going to deal with it?"

Lin Zixuan pondered for a long time, and with a thought in his mind, a ray of real fire burst out from his index finger and slowly approached the black book in Jiang Yuanchen's hand.

"No!" Biwan screamed. This book can be said to be its true identity. If the Black Book is destroyed, then it will only die.

Jiang Yuanchen smiled and signaled Lin Zixuan to put away the true fire: "Senior brother, although you condense your true fire in advance during the foundation building period, this kind of flame is also the condensed essence of your body and must not be used lightly."

Lin Yuanzhao and others came to their senses at this time, saw Jiang Yuanchen put away the black book, and walked over.

"Householder, if I'm not mistaken, this book should be a human skin book, right?" Jiang Yuanchen turned to one of the pages and asked, pointing to the book material.

"Yes, this book is said to be made from the skin of the backs of death row prisoners." Lin Yuanzhao looked at the monster on Jiang Yuanchen's shoulder with a bad expression. After all, he was so old and couldn't bear such a fright. Lin Yuanzhao couldn't help but think of the health-preserving techniques he learned at the Imperial Master's Office in the capital city, and he must practice them well when he comes back.

Bi Fan saw Lin Yuanzhao's wandering eyes, curled his lips and stared at the black book in Jiang Yuanchen's hand.

"No wonder this book is so spiritual. It turns out that the selection of materials is very particular!" Jiang Yuanchen touched a page of human skin. It did feel like real skin, but this kind of protection was too good.

Then, Jiang Yuanchen smelled the black ink stains on it.

"Although nothing can be seen now, the traces should not be written with the blood of the deceased, right? Only by using the skin of a death row prisoner and the blood of a death row prisoner can the spirituality be truly maximized." Jiang Yuanchen pressed the Bian on his shoulder and said.

"Yes, this book was written by Wu Ziming who skinned people from death row prisoners and then wrote them with their blood." Bi An was kneaded by Jiang Yuanchen for a while and finally became honest.

Jiang Yuanchen flipped through the human skin book. There were one hundred pages in the human skin book, explaining one hundred types of death penalty. The front of each page first explains the execution process of this kind of death penalty, and then the actual execution diagram is drawn on the back.

Turning to the third page, pointing at the beheading and execution diagram, Jiang Yuanchen activated his magic power, and a stench suddenly came out of the book. Then a dark head rolled down from the book and landed directly next to Mr. Lin.

"Ah!" After being frightened, Mr. Lin quickly jumped away and hid at the door of the study.

"Sorry." Jiang Yuanchen apologized and stared at the head on the ground. The man's head was fluffy and his eyes were only white, with no pupils visible at all. Just looking at Jiang Yuanchen, Jiang Yuanchen himself felt a little creepy.

"Not just the human skins of ordinary death row prisoners, these human skins definitely correspond to these prisoners who were executed. After they experienced this kind of punishment, their skins were peeled off, and all their mental power before death was completely stored. This piece of human skin was buried in it." Jiang Yuanchen's face looked bad, he patted the human skin book lightly, and the head turned into blue smoke and flew into the "Decapitation" page.

Jiang Yuanchen looked solemnly and said to Lin Yuanzhao: "Father, this thing has gathered the resentment of many death row prisoners, and a book spirit was born from it. It is absolutely impossible to stay here any longer."

"Taoist Priest, just take it away!" Lin Yuanzhao glanced at the Second Young Master Lin, quickly waved his hand and gave this thing to Jiang Yuanchen.

"We mortals cannot bear this."
