Not long after, the three of them came to a gloomy underground palace. Corpses were displayed everywhere in the underground palace. It seemed that a large array was set up with these corpses to practice some evil method.
Seeing this ghastly and terrifying scene, Zhou Tianji didn't look strange.
You Ming was relieved when he saw this. A moment later, the elder of the Evil Temple led the two of them to a dozen standing corpses.
After more than a year, not only did these corpses not rot, but they became somewhat lifelike under the influence of the evil temple's secret techniques.
"These are the monks who were killed by that man that day." The elder of the Evil Temple introduced.
Zhou Tianji nodded, and then looked around one of the corpses carefully for a full quarter of an hour. He suddenly closed his eyes and began to recite some kind of spell silently.
This spell turned into light patterns, flew out of his mouth, and landed on the corpse. Soon the body was covered with inscriptions.
"wake up."
After reciting the incantation, Zhou Tianji opened his eyes and said lightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes, but what was exposed under the eyelids was not the eyes, but two white lights. It looked as weird as possible, and the two evil temple elders, Netherworld and the evil temple elder, Everyone was shocked.
"Is this... is this alive?" You Ming said in shock.
This person has been dead for more than a year, but he can still open his eyes. In his opinion, it is simply a miraculous skill.
The Tianji Sect has been able to stand in the world for so many years, and it is indeed well-deserved.
"It's not alive. It just allowed some of his remaining spiritual consciousness to return to his body. It will dissipate in a short time."
Zhou Tianji said with a smile, and then looked at the corpse with a very serious expression.
"What is your name?"
"Wang Qian."
"What cultivation level?"
"Later stage of virtual refining."
…
Watching the two people's questions and answers, the elders of Netherworld and Evil Temple looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Do you know the person who killed you?"
"I don't know him. I just know that he is a native of the lower world. After he defeated us, he did not kill us. Instead, he forced us to hand over our souls and made us obey his orders."
Hearing this, You Ming gritted his teeth and said, "It is indeed him! I knew it!"
Zhou Tianji waved his hand to signal him to calm down, and then asked, "Do you know what he looks like?"
"That man has a mask that can change his face at any time. I'm not sure what he looks like."
Zhou Tianji sighed after hearing this and said softly: "He is such a cautious person."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the man's body was completely reduced to ashes.
"Is this the end of the question?" the elder of the Evil Temple said helplessly.
"The man is very careful. There is no need to ask any more. In fact, it is enough to know that he is a native of that world. Now we only need to send people to the small world to inquire, and then we can know the situation of that man. Based on that man's Ability must be extremely famous in that world.
However, one thing to remember is not to mobilize troops or mobilize a large number of people, otherwise it may alert the enemy. "
Zhou Tianji said with a smile, his eyes full of confidence.
You Ming nodded slightly, and then walked out without saying a word. About a quarter of an hour later, he walked in with two disciples who were at the peak of Xu Refining.
"These two junior brothers are usually the most reliable in doing things. I will send them to that world this time. Brother Zhou, do you have any other instructions?"
Zhou Tianji looked at the two people and said, "You two must keep a low profile and do not use coercion unless absolutely necessary. If possible, it is best to find some of that person's hair, clothes, used magic weapons, etc." Bring things back."
"clear!"
The two disciples responded and saw that there were no other instructions, so they turned and left.
…
After a month passed, the two Xu Lian disciples successfully returned from the lower world and appeared in the Evil Temple again.
After seeing the two of them, You Ming excitedly brought them to Zhou Tianji.
"Brother Zhou, they are back."
Zhou Tianji was playing with a special set of chess at this time. After hearing this, he raised his head and said with a smile: "It seems that things went smoothly."
"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!" The two Xu Lian disciples said loudly.
Being able to become a disciple of the Evil Temple is definitely not a waste of money. If they can't handle such a simple thing, then they might as well find a rope and hang themselves.
"That man's name is Chen Chen, and he is a legend in that world. In fact, he ascended to our world a few years ago."
"Yes, the reason why he was able to return to that world was probably because he got mixed up with the last conquest army."
After hearing the words of these two people, You Ming suddenly realized.
No wonder that such an amazing and talented person could appear in that realm. It turned out to be a monk who had ascended to the upper realm early. After understanding this, he felt much better.
"It's rare to be bold and careful. Is there anything he has used that he can bring back?"
Zhou Tianji asked, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.
As he got to know Chen Chen more deeply, he became more and more curious about this person.
"Yes, you see, this is the magic weapon he used. I bought it from a monk in that world. Because it was used by him, the price is several times more valuable than magic weapons of the same level."
A Void Refining cultivator took out a sword and said.
Zhou Tianji took one look and said with a dumb smile: "Fake, this sword has been refined for less than a year."
"Huh? Then take a look at this again."
The two Void Refining cultivators were startled and took out more than a dozen items one after another. Half of them were actually fake, which made them very angry.
But half of it was true, and it was enough for Zhou Tianji.
Looking at some low-level items in front of him, Zhou Tianji reached out his hand, touched it gently, then took out a chessboard magic weapon and tapped it twice.
When he did this, the chessboard suddenly lit up, and countless chess pieces were crisscrossed and connected to form extremely complex lines.
Zhou Tianji quietly moved the chess pieces, and runes burst out from his fingertips from time to time.
Just like this, it lasted for a long time before he dropped the last piece. At this time, the entire chessboard had changed drastically. A special red chess piece was surrounded in the center and could not move.
Zhou Tianji took off the red chess piece and began to calculate silently. After another half an hour, he finally put away the magic weapon.
"How's it going? Have you found that Chen Chen?" You Ming waited for a long time, and when he saw that it was finally over, he quickly asked.
"I have some clues. That person is very far away from here now."
After saying that, he pointed to the north, his face full of confidence.
"To the north of us? How far is it? Brother Zhou, can you feel it?" You Ming asked.
Zhou Tianji said: "I'm not sure how far it is, but he is surrounded by sand on all sides and the surrounding environment is extremely harsh. If I guessed correctly, he should be in the vast desert of Huawai."
Seeing Zhou Tianji directly mention the name of the place, You Ming was overjoyed and said: "Brother Zhou is really an amazing talent. If you need it in the future, I will never refuse... The vast desert? Very good, I will take people there right now!"
