Afterwards, I taught the method of absorbing spirits to the ghost immortal Gui Wenchang.
At the same time, I summoned out Tubagen, the chief of the ancient human tribe, and Haimingdong, the chief of the ancient sea tribe, and taught them the method of absorbing spirits.
This would save trouble. They would pass on what they had learned about the "Spiritual Absorption Method" to their own people.
Wait, as long as I temporarily fuse the three pieces of the divine map fragments together, they will be able to absorb the "spirit" in the outside air through the divine map fragments and transform the "spirit" into spiritual energy.
However, Tubagen and the others didn't know how to fuse the three pieces of the divine map. This made me a little upset.
However, after searching my memory, I discovered that there is a way to integrate the fragments of the divine map in my memory.
It turned out that the method was left to me by the mysterious person inside the huge bronze coffin inside the red lacquered coffin.
What is the identity of the mysterious man in the bronze coffin? Does the fact that he is lying in a huge coffin prove that his body is very huge? I don't understand these things either.
I tried to open the giant coffin, but couldn't.
The Taotie beast in the red lacquer coffin told me that when it was imprisoned in the red lacquer coffin, the giant coffin was inside it. The Taotie beast was imprisoned in the ancient times.
So, I suspected that, in all likelihood, the person in the giant coffin was a powerful man from ancient times.
But the mysterious man can only help me, not harm me. He is hiding in the giant coffin, and I don't know whether he is dead or alive. He is also bound by the red lacquer coffin and should not be able to get out.
After teaching Gui Wenchang, Tubagen and Haimingdong the method of absorbing spirits, my master Jiang Jiuzhen and I left the fragments of the ghost clan's divine map.
After a flash of black light, a huge repulsive force was generated, and my master and I flew directly out of the fragments of the ghost clan's divine map.
The spiritual energy in my body was stimulated, and I landed safely with my master.
With a wave of his hand, fragments of the ghost clan's divine map flew down from above his head.
The fragments of the ghost clan's divine map were different from those of the sea clan and the human clan. They looked black and like a rag. Fortunately, the fragments were still soft to the touch.
He put the fragments of the ghost clan's divine map into the cloth bag.
Only then did I realize that my master and I were still in the woods at the back of the mountain.
The moon in the sky was hanging high up there, and it had changed from a half moon to a full moon. It seemed like a good omen. I didn't expect that I could get the fragment of the ancient ghost clan's divine map so easily.
"Let's go, Tianyi, we'll go back to the small building through the cave we just came from." My master called me.
I nodded and followed my master.
The cave in the back mountain was still so humid, and there was a whirring wind blowing in from behind, like the roar of a monster.
When the wind blows to the neck, the sound changes again, becoming a "wooooooo" sound, and there is an echo.
This is formed by the natural structure of the cave.
After walking for a while, we arrived in front of the cave.
Shining the flashlight forward, one could see the broken rocks that had fallen and were blocking the entrance to the cave.
But when I walked over, I found a problem.
Seeing me stop and frowning, my master Jiang Jiuzhen asked me, "Tianyi, what's wrong with you?"
I pointed at a large bloody rock and said to my master, "Master, that's not right. The body of the monk Chen Hongshen from Tiger Leaping Mountain is missing? I remember that he was hit to death by a rock, and his brains were smashed out."
My master was startled when he heard what I said and looked over there intently.
Sure enough, Chen Hongshen’s body disappeared.
"Huh? How could this happen?" My master was surprised.
At this moment, a heavy voice came from outside the cave: "Since you have killed my junior brother, why don't you come out
Apologize. "
There was annoyance and solemnity in the voice, which startled me.
I looked at my master, and he said, "Let's go out and take a look. They should be the monks on Tiger Leaping Mountain."
"good."
I nodded, followed my master and walked out of the cave.
Outside the cave, the moonlight was bright, and objects could be seen vaguely under the light.
There was a person lying on the ground, no, a corpse. It should be Chen Hongshen who was killed by the stone.
The body lay there quietly, motionless.
The wind was blowing in front of the cave, and the grass and trees were swaying, making a rustling sound, as if a group of insects, rats, snakes and ants were approaching.
The fire had gone out, and there was a pile of black ash with sparks on the ground.
When the wind blew, sparks rolled in all directions and black ash flew in all directions.
On top of a stone, a man was standing with his hands behind his back, and the voice just now came from his mouth.
I shone the flashlight over there and found that the man was wearing a gray robe. He stood straight, his hair was gray, but his whole body gave people a fierce aura.
I can feel the rich spiritual energy from him.
The richness of the spiritual energy has made me conclude that this cultivator has reached the foundation-building stage.
However, even if he is a foundation-building cultivator, so what? I am already in the fasting stage, one level higher than him, he is no match for me.
"Who are you? Why are you here in the back hills of Tianmen Mountain?"
My master questioned in a cold voice.
The man snorted coldly and said angrily, "You ask who I am? I also want to ask who you are? Why did you kill my fellow apprentice Chen Hongshen?"
After saying that, the man slowly turned around.
Under the light of the flashlight, the man's face was revealed.
His face was very fair, and his hair, beard and eyebrows were all white.
He stared at us sharply, like a hawk staring at its chicks.
My heart tightened because I had seen this person before. He was the Taoist monk Zuo Ci whom I met when I was in the underworld.
"Master Zuo Ci." My master obviously also knew Master Zuo Ci.
"Oh, you know me??"
Taoist Zuo Ci’s gaze fell on my master.
My master bowed quickly, clasped his fists, and said, "Master Zuo Ci, you are a cultivator on Tiger Leaping Mountain, famous for your bravery and your ability to protect the weak. I, Jiang Jiuzhen, have met you once before, so I recognize you."
I wanted to speak, but Zuo Ci didn't give me a chance.
He looked at me and my master Jiang Jiuzhen, swung his sleeves, and said in a domineering manner, "Since you know me, why did you harm my junior brother Chen Hongshen? My junior brother was just a guest at Tianmen Mountain and he never hurt anyone. But you killed him. It's simply unforgivable and lawless."
This old guy obviously misunderstood us.
My master hurriedly said, "Master Zuo Ci, you have misunderstood. We have no intention of harming your junior brother Chen Hongshen. Your junior brother was killed by Wang Jiuyang."
"Killed by Wang Jiuyang? ... ... Humph, that sounds nice. So, it has nothing to do with you?"
To say that there is no connection at all is not the case.
My master didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"It seems that you have nothing to say. Well, in that case, I will arrest you and take you to Tiger Leaping Mountain, where you will pray and atone for your sins in front of my junior brother's tablet. Then, I will send you to the police station and let you receive the punishment you deserve."
I was about to speak, but Zuo Ci had already taken action.
The spiritual energy in his body surged out, and a pair of hands filled with the spiritual energy reached out to grab my master.
I quickly grabbed my master and protected him behind me.
I was busy and also stimulated the spiritual energy in my body.
Reiki
The beads spun rapidly, and the spiritual energy formed a beam of light that shot towards Zuo Ci Zhenren.
At the same time, I used Reiki to stimulate the pure yang energy in my body.
"Dragon Detector! Catch it for me!"
Zuo Ci Zhenren shouted.
But I didn't expect that his hand was blocked by my spiritual energy as soon as he stretched it out. Then, the pure yang aura formed, and his body was shaken back and thrown several meters away.
"Huh? You actually have spiritual energy... Are you also a cultivator?"
Taoist Zuo Ci stared at me in surprise.
I don't want to fight with Zuo Ci. After all, he once helped me unintentionally when I was in the underworld.
I quickly clasped my fists and said, "Senior, you misunderstood. Your junior brother Chen Hongshen was not killed by us. It was really that Wang Jiuyang."
But Zuo Ci frowned. He didn't believe me. He stared at me and asked, "Answer me first. Who are you and how can you control spiritual energy? And I found that the spiritual energy in you is even deeper than mine. It doesn't seem to be absorbed from the spirit stone."
Damn, this old guy, this is what he wanted to say.
I thought about it and said, "It seems that you have figured it out, so I will tell you. I am a ghost-catching Taoist priest, and now I am also a Taoist practitioner. What you said is true. I am not using the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, but the spiritual energy I absorb myself."
Zuo Ci's body trembled and his eyes became burning.
"Little kid, how could you absorb spiritual energy? Tell me what's going on. Spiritual energy disappeared in ancient times. How could you absorb it?"
This old guy really doesn't mind mumbling to himself.
But he helped me after all.
I said, "Senior, I can absorb spiritual energy. As for the method I used, there is no need for me to tell you. And I have already seen that your cultivation is at the foundation-building stage, while I have reached the fasting stage. You are no match for me."
"I'd better tell you in detail what happened tonight."
Afterwards, I told Zuo Ci about how my master and I came to capture Wang Jiuyang, how we later met Chen Hongshen, the conversation between Wang Jiuyang and Chen Hongshen, and how Wang Jiuyang later escaped and detonated the thunder bead.
Taoist Zuo Ci had already checked Chen Hongshen's wounds and should have known that Chen Hongshen was killed by a stone.
"Well... OK, little kid, I believe you."
Zuo Ci finally compromised. Even if he didn't compromise, he couldn't do anything to me.
I am a cultivator in the Qigong stage, and he is a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. He and I are not at the same level at all.
"In fact, I also know a little about my master Chen Hongshen. I know that he did some shameful things in secret, but because he is my junior brother, I did not control him. I didn't expect that he would bully a decent girl and collude with Wang Jiuyang."
"Forget it, little kid. I was reckless just now. I apologize to you and your master."
Taoist Zuo Ci was very sincere.
I smiled and said, "Thank you for your generosity, Senior."
After that, I told him about my experience of going to the underworld and meeting Zuo Ci Zhenren.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Ci laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, I didn't expect that, little kid, we are so predestined. So, when those ghosts from the underworld killed the ghost officials, there was a person from the mortal world like you among them. To be honest, I was really careless and didn't even notice your existence, little kid."
I replied, "You are too polite. No matter what, you helped me, so I still want to thank you."
But Master Zuo Ci changed his words and stared at me with a smile, and asked, "Little kid, it's not that I'm superficial, I really want to know what's going on with the spiritual energy in your body? Could you tell me?"
