As soon as the strange change appeared on the old Taoist's body, a Tai Chi pattern on the back of his Taoist robe suddenly lit up, and the evil aura weakened.
"Wulian Tianzun, suppress!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the old Taoist took out a yellow talisman and slapped it on his forehead.
The talisman exploded, and a ball of yellow light went straight into the top of the old Taoist's head. Then the old Taoist's whole body began to tremble like a sieve.
Then, the reddish shadow popped out from the old Taoist's body, and he fell to the ground weakly.
All this was done in a flash. Chen Lin, who was not far away, thought that the Taoist priest could easily take down the evil creature. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the Taoist priest himself was lying on the ground.
Then, the red shadow flashed among the crowd who had not yet run far, and more than ten people lay on the ground.
Chen Lin hurriedly cast a Vajra Shield on himself, took out the Evil-Slaying Talisman, turned around and ran.
But before he could run a few steps, the red shadow on the other side seemed to sense something, and it bounced and appeared beside Chen Lin like teleportation and pounced on him.
The Vajra Shield was pierced through as if it did not exist.
The evil-repelling talisman that had been hanging on his chest flashed slightly and burned to ashes, with the only effect of causing the red shadow to pause for a moment.
However, the Demon-Slaying Talisman in his hand was different from the Exorcist Talisman and needed to be actively activated. Before he could do so, the red shadow had already entered his body.
Chen Lin felt a cold breath instantly enveloping his body. A violent emotion rose up in his heart for no reason, and he wanted to tear everything around him to pieces.
He used his strong willpower to control his body, trying to activate the Evil-Slaying Talisman.
But it can't be suppressed at all.
At this moment, his other hand suddenly felt hot, and the broken jade talisman that he had been holding in his hand emitted a ball of white light that enveloped his body.
It was as if a shrill scream sounded from within his body, and then the light red shadow rushed out of Chen Lin's body, but it was trembling as if it had suffered great harm, and it no longer had the ability to flash as before.
Seeing this, Chen Lin threw out the evil-killing talisman without hesitation.
The talisman turned into a ball of yellow light and hit the weak red shadow. The red shadow trembled for a while, and then with a puff it turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated into the air.
As the red shadow was destroyed, the cold aura disappeared completely in an instant.
Chen Lin's forehead was covered with cold sweat. At that moment, he really felt the breath of death.
No one knew what the red shadow was, it was too fast and there was no way to defend against it. And the attack method was too weird, it would just pounce on you, and the diamond shield seemed to not exist at all.
If it weren’t for…
Chen Lin raised his hand and looked at the jade talisman that had been held in his hand.
It was the light emitted by this object that rescued him from the control of the red shadow, and also seriously injured the red shadow.
If this is not the case, the Evil-Slaying Talisman might not be able to kill it.
This was truly a coincidence, and it saved his life right after he got it.
Moreover, this thing is not an earth escape talisman at all. That bald guy is just talking nonsense!
At this moment, the jade talisman no longer had the faint glow it had before, nor did it fluctuate any more. This was probably because the red shadow had been destroyed.
This means that this jade talisman also has a detection function, and it will react as long as there is an evil creature like Red Shadow within a certain distance.
Chen Lin knew he had found a treasure.
Chen Lin carefully put the jade talisman into his pocket and decided to find a purse to hang around his neck when he returned.
Then he began to examine the body.
After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he walked towards the old Taoist with white beard.
At this moment, everyone around had run away, leaving only a dozen or so corpses. The people in the yard were also frightened silly, with their eyes wide open and unable to move.
In an instant, more than a dozen people died, and the final transformation of the bride was too horrifying. Not to mention ordinary people, even Chen Lin felt his stomach churning.
But after all, he had seen big scenes in Kaiyuan City, so he was not unable to bear it.
When he got closer to the Taoist priest, Chen Lin found that he also looked very scary. His body was covered with blood and flesh, and the exposed skin became dry as if it had lost moisture. His two eyes bulged out from his sunken eye sockets, and blood was flowing from all his orifices.
It looks like he is dead.
Chen Lin felt scared again.
This old Taoist's cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi training, and his methods were even more astonishing, but he still died in the end. If it weren't for the jade talisman, he couldn't even imagine the consequences for himself.
I don’t know what that red shadow is, it’s so evil.
While Chen Lin was thinking, he reached out and pulled the old Taoist's robe, trying to see if he could find anything that could contain his identity information. If he couldn't find anything, he would find a place to bury him.
As fellow cultivators, it is inevitable that they will feel grief for each other. Moreover, this old Taoist is upright and righteous, and he exorcises demons and monsters, so he deserves respect.
Of course, as the aftermath, he can also obtain the other party's inheritance with peace of mind.
"Ahem, fellow Taoist, I am not dead yet!"
Just as Chen Lin stretched out his hand, the old Taoist rolled his bulging eyes, coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, and actually started speaking.
Chen Lin looked at his hands and suddenly felt embarrassed.
At this moment, his hand was facing the storage bag on the other person's waist, as if he was about to grab it.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like they are trying to plunder the loot.
"Ah! How do you feel, Taoist priest? Can you get up?"
Chen Lin took the opportunity to feel the other person's breath, then took his hand back.
"Ahem, I'm okay. I can still move. Thank you for saving me, fellow Taoist."
The old Taoist put the storage bag inside with his hands, then supported himself with his whisk and struggled to stand up.
At this time, the groom and others in the yard also came to their senses and walked out the door.
"Thank you, Taoist Master Yuyangzi. If it weren't for you, our whole family would have died!"
The groom bowed deeply, followed by his family.
Chen Lin was stunned when he heard this. It turned out that they knew each other.
The old Taoist priest gave a bitter smile and said, "It's not my credit at all. It's all thanks to this fellow cultivator. Otherwise, I would have died here too. Besides, I'm not a good Taoist priest, and I've caused trouble for so many people."
Looking at the corpses scattered around him, the old Taoist's face was filled with self-blame.
The groom's family immediately came to Chen Lin again and thanked him repeatedly.
At this time, several men and women ran out from the yard. They were all servants. They were so frightened by the scene just now that they dared not show their heads. Now they were afraid that their boss would come to settle the score with them, so they all tried their best to perform.
Some were cleaning up the bloody and fleshy scraps on everyone's clothes, while others were gathering the dead bodies outside.
After waiting for a while, Chen Lin saw that the things were almost cleaned up, so he clasped his fists to the old Taoist priest and said, "I don't know what your name is, Taoist priest. Do you know what that evil thing is?"
If this kind of evil creature is an individual and hard to guard against, it would be fine, but if it is a group, then he really needs to figure it out.
The old Taoist shook his head and said, "I am a Taoist from Wufang Temple, my Dharma name is Yuyangzi. As for what that evil thing is, I am not too sure, but in the past period of time, many people in Guyuan City and the surrounding cities have gone crazy. I guess it is related to the ancient cave!"
