Qi is the basis and foundation of all things.
The white bones manifested by it seem ethereal and elusive, but the power they exude is mysterious and unpredictable.
But unfortunately, it is not as good as the technique of converting three pure things into one breath, so whether it is powerful or magical, it is far from it. Moreover, this spell has a limited time and will dissipate after a short period of time.
However, this is the first spell that Ye Qin has figured out so far, so he can't be too ambitious.
It is not ruled out that with the improvement of cultivation level in the future, one can use magic to transform three white bones at the same time, becoming a true one-qi transforming three pure beings.
Of course, it is still a long term to say this now.
Ye Qin looked at the white bones formed by condensation of Qi. He was quite satisfied. Counting the time, he had been out for a few days and it was time to go back.
If you continue to stay, there will be no progress, and there is no need to waste time here. After thinking about this, Ye Qin embarked on the journey back.
As he left, the thick fog here quickly dissipated. It seemed that there had never been such a heavy fog.
It comes and goes without a trace, elusive.
Mountain waves, peaks and waves, layer upon layer, extend into undulating arcs under the reflection of the blue sky. Covered by the mountains, it can be seen that countless green plants are thriving here, growing into a huge green canopy.
After stepping into the deep mountains, Ye Qin felt like he was home. He had only been out for a short time, but he still missed him a little.
There was a thin sound in front of him, as if something was coming at a fast pace. A small yellow-orange head popped out. Seeing Ye Qin was like seeing a relative.
It turned out to be a weasel.
Ye Qin also recognized it, after all, it had been with him for a long time.
The weasel's hind limbs stood upright, like a human being, making various strange movements, while its forelimbs kept waving, as if it was gesticulating something.
Ye Qin separated out a few rays of spiritual power and quickly established a weak connection with the weasel.
Under his influence, these animals have developed weak spiritual intelligence. Unlike ordinary mortal animals, there is still no problem with simple communication.
"You mean that humans came after I left."
The weasel nodded sharply. With its interpretation and spiritual communication, Ye Qin finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.
It turned out that the group not only took away the books, but also captured several animals.
"Could it be that they are coming for the ancient tomb?"
This thing could never have been done by the villagers at the foot of the mountain. They were in awe of themselves and would never dare to do such a thing. It should have been someone from outside.
But it is impossible for ordinary people to know that there are tombs here. After all, the archaeological team and the police have done a good job in maintaining confidentiality.
The villagers didn't say much after saying hello, and since it was a remote place with few outsiders, there was only one possibility left.
"Could these people be accomplices of the tomb robbers?"
Ye Qin's snake eyes turned into a vertical line, and the cold light in it made people shudder. The snake letter shook back and forth in the air, and even the snake's tail hit the ground heavily, splashing a lot of dust.
"It's too much to bully a snake!"
He didn't expect that this group of people would dare to come over and act lawlessly on his territory. If he swallowed this breath, it would be in vain for him to practice for so long.
After all, others came to the door of his house to run wild, especially when they kidnapped several of his capable men. How could Ye Qin remain indifferent.
He quickly caught the aura belonging to that group of people.
His eyes fell on the northeast.
"It seems that group of people went in this direction."
…
On the winding mountain road, a car was driving at high speed. Brother Zhao and others were sitting in it, and they put the animals in the trunk.
They were still struggling before, but after being beaten a few times, they became much calmer.
The road was winding, and soon a road sign appeared not far away with the words "Yunling City" written on it. Cars were speeding by, and countless dust was flying.
After officially entering the boundaries of Yunling City, the originally empty field of vision gradually narrowed, driving from the suburbs to the downtown area, and the surrounding floors continued to get higher.
The car made twists and turns in the downtown area and finally came to an alley.
There are many such alleys nearby, the kind that belong to the urban area, criss-crossing like a maze. If someone who is not familiar with them comes here, they may even get lost.
Because the alleys of all sizes look similar, they are surrounded by old and small residential buildings, densely packed in a rectangular shape, forming part of the alley.
Looking at the sky through the top of the alley, I had the illusion that even the sky was squeezed into a thin crack.
When they arrived, it was already evening. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the old houses were coated with a faint light, making them look less shabby.
The car finally stopped at the door of a private house, where they settled.
As the saying goes, the more dangerous the place is, the safer it is.
In the alleys and alleys, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, and all kinds of people live here, which has become their best shield.
Even if he is engaged in some kind of illegal transaction, it will not attract attention.
Brother Zhao has already contacted the people above, and someone will come to contact him tomorrow.
After hanging up the phone, one of them said worriedly:
"Did the big boss say anything? We didn't find it this time, so you won't blame us."
Brother Zhao blew out a smoke ring and shook the ashes, "The big boss seemed a little unhappy, but he didn't get angry."
Although I didn't find what the big boss wanted, at least I didn't return empty-handed, and those ancient books and scriptures could barely explain it.
Everyone was also relieved.
"By the way, get those beasts out and give them some water so they don't suffocate to death in the car."
Several people lifted the animals out of the car. These animals had not had any water or food. They had been beaten several times before and were suffocating in a small space.
At this moment, his head was drooped and he looked very lethargic.
Seeing these animals, Brother Zhao suddenly became angry. Although the wound on his wrist had been bandaged, it still hurt a little.
Without thinking about it, he poked the cigarette butt in his hand. The hot animal immediately squeaked and screamed, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt fur.
The originally smooth fur also had burnt marks.
Brother Zhao laughed heartily when he saw it, "Who told that weasel to bite me? If I can't catch it, it will take care of you beasts to relieve its anger."
If he wasn't worried that the fur would be burnt and unsightly, Brother Zhao would have poked a few more holes and shut them into the utility room in the corner with a wave of his hand.
As night falls, lights are also turned on in the alley. The dim street lights seem to be in disrepair for many years, and the faint sound of constant electricity can be heard.
Even the light bulbs were flickering on and off, looking like they had a bad contact.
The night became darker little by little, and the city fell into a deep sleep. The traffic on the streets gradually decreased, and in the end there were only a few cars.
Without the sound of the whistle, it can be said that everything is completely silent, not to mention that the alley next to it is incredibly quiet.
…
At this moment, Ye Qin has arrived in Yunling City. There are many mountains around the foggy city, and the green vegetation is also good, but Yunling is different.
Because the city area is relatively small, the land planning is very compact, and the green vegetation is correspondingly reduced.
Fortunately, it was already late at night and it was not noticeable. However, if you walked in like this, you would be easily caught by those electronic eyes.
"It needs to be covered up. It cannot be exposed yet."
Ye Qin's snake eyes narrowed slightly. It knew that it was not strong enough now and was still unstoppable in the face of many modern hot weapons. It was no match at all.
So to avoid being targeted, you still need to be cautious.
The Qi Dan in the body started to circulate slowly, with a vague Taoist rhyme. It used the ability of the Qi Dan realm, and soon a lot of gas gathered around it.
From a distance it looks like a mist.
With the fog as a cover, even if it is discovered, there will be less risk of exposure. People who see it will only wonder why there is a strange fog here.
I don’t know when the light became hazy, and it felt like seeing flowers in the fog. If I looked carefully, there was a thin mist, and I was walking through the alley, as if I was looking for something.
Even the surrounding temperature has dropped a lot, just like what people often call Yin Qi.
When the night wind blows, it looks even more desolate and cold.
The mist seemed to be alive, and finally, it slowly came to an old house.
The people in the room didn't notice anything. They were still sleeping. They probably felt that the temperature around them was a bit low and couldn't help shivering.
Outside the house, a pair of beast eyes suddenly lit up, with endless chill and coldness.
At this time, the animals in the house seemed to have noticed something, and their eyes suddenly fell towards the door, with a bit of human expectation and joy.
It's just that these animals have a tacit understanding and don't make any sound or movement. Everything looks like nothing happened.
Except for the all-pervasive fog.
"Jingle Bell--"
The shrill ringtone of the cell phone pierced the night sky.
Brother Zhao was sleepy and could vaguely see a layer of white gas inside the house. He looked closely again, but there was nothing there.
He didn't take it seriously and just thought he was dazzled after just waking up.
Brother Zhao looked impatient. After seeing the caller ID clearly, he immediately put on a respectful expression.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately woke up the others and said, "The plan has changed. The big boss's people are delayed, so we need to send things over quickly."
There was nothing they could do about it, so everyone quickly packed up and prepared to get in the car.
"Huh."
Suddenly one of them seemed to have discovered something and stopped.
"What's wrong?"
"The street lights next to me feel a little strange."
Brother Zhao followed his line of sight and looked over. The light of the street lamp was dim, as if there was a special aperture shrouding the outside.
He couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "I think you are asleep. Is there anything strange? Hurry up and drive."
As the engine started, the car lights suddenly turned on, and a beam of light broke through the darkness. No one noticed that there were other things around this beam of light.
Everyone had just been pulled up from their sleep, and everyone was yawning, but they were still in a state of not waking up.
The car was driving in the middle of the road, but the headlights were getting darker and darker. The driver couldn't help but mutter to himself, "What's going on? Could it be that the headlights are broken?"
The fog blocked the car lights, which was the main culprit causing the dim lights.
Because the car lights were dim, the line of sight was not very clear. However, it was relatively dark on this road, and the street lights were very far apart. They were like small boats drifting in the lonely ocean.
The too dark environment made the driver a little nervous. When he saw the faint outline of a human figure poking in front of him, he thought there was someone in front of him, so he suddenly stepped on the brakes.
"Kacha——"
The tires made a screeching sound as they rubbed against the ground. Under the influence of inertia, everyone's bodies suddenly leaned forward.
All of a sudden, sleepyheads were thrown out of their minds.
Brother Zhao's face looked a little ugly, "Why does Ajieyou drive?!"
Ajie swallowed his saliva and said, "Brother Zhao, I think I bumped into someone just now."
Brother Zhao frowned and looked around, "What are you talking about? There is no one here. I'm afraid they really haven't woken up."
Everyone got out of the car and checked, not to mention anyone, not even a ghost.
Ajie recalled the outline of the human figure he had seen before, and he didn't see it clearly. Could it be that he was tired and nervous and looked at it wrongly?
"Forget it, let someone else drive, Lao Zhang, you drive."
Just when everyone was getting ready to get on the bus.
Ajie seemed to have discovered something and couldn't help but exclaimed, suddenly startling the people around him.
The expression on Brother Zhao's face was already a little impatient, "What's the matter? I've been making noises all night."
Ajie looked stern, "Brother Zhao, don't be angry, I saw the fog."
Only then did everyone realize that a heavy fog had arisen around them. The thick fog enveloped them and they could hardly see the surrounding scenes clearly.
Everything was swallowed up, leaving only faint outlines, which could not be seen clearly in the night. Even the light of the street lamps was blocked and invisible.
They seemed to be surrounded by a heavy fog. Apart from the people and cars around them, everything else was only a vague shadow, which then disappeared and disappeared into the fog.
"Why did it suddenly become so foggy?"
Looking at the thick fog around them, Brother Zhao and others were a little confused. After all, everything was fine when they went out. It is really rare for such a heavy fog to appear at night.
"Forget it, no matter how many things there are, let's hurry on."
However, the house was leaking and it was raining continuously. The engine couldn't light up, and we didn't know where the problem was.
There were some simple tools on the car. Brother Zhao and others got out of the car to check and found nothing abnormal. He was so angry that he kicked the car, and the car body shook slightly and made a dull sound.
"Damn this damn car, it breaks down at the critical moment."
Now in the middle of the night, fog suddenly blocked the view. They couldn't let them explore here on foot.
Brother Zhao and others took out their mobile phones and prepared to make a call. Probably because of the poor signal here, there was a constant buzz of electricity and noise on the other end of the phone, which was difficult to hear clearly.
"I definitely didn't look at the almanac when I went out today. I kept borrowing one bad thing after another. It's like I got caught up in something evil."
Brother Zhao's face turned green with anger.
He said it unintentionally, but the listener meant it.
The sudden heavy fog caused another problem with the car. Someone in the team whispered: "Brother Zhao, will we hit something dirty?"
Brother Zhao obviously didn't believe this kind of thing, "You're still dirty at this age. Don't scare yourself. These are just accidents and coincidences."
The others looked at each other, "Brother Zhao, what should we do now?"
Brother Zhao pondered for a moment and said: "Take those ancient books and tools with you, and leave the car where it is. Let's find a place with a good signal first and contact the big boss."
After everyone picked up their things, they stepped into the white fog. The fog was so thick that the lights of their mobile phones were like a decoration. In addition to preventing them from being blind, they couldn't see clearly at any distance.
After walking a few steps, the car was completely swallowed up by the fog. When I turned around, I saw that there was no shadow of the car anywhere, leaving only a faint dark outline.
If they hadn't just gotten out of the car, I almost thought they hadn't driven here at all.
The huge thick fog is like an all-devouring monster, swallowing everything inside.
Brother Zhao suddenly turned around and looked back.
Everyone was confused by his sudden move, "Why doesn't Brother Zhao leave?"
Brother Zhao scratched his head. For some reason, looking at the blinding white mist, an inexplicable chill surged in his heart.
"I always feel like someone is watching us."
Others looked around, "Is there anyone around?"
Besides, when they drove nearby, they didn't see anyone there.
Brother Zhao didn't think too much, nodded and said, "Well, maybe I'm too worried."
Da da da--
Everything was quiet around them, only their footsteps could be heard. In such an environment, everyone's spirits were a little tense.
No one noticed that on the other side of the mist, dark green beast eyes were watching them faintly, like looking at humble crawling ants.
In fact, Brother Zhao's feeling just now was indeed correct.
But blocked by the fog, they couldn't see Ye Qin's existence.
Ye Qin's snake eyes narrowed slightly, invisible gas slowly rose from the scales, and the surrounding became colder.
"One breath turns into bones!"
With a random movement of the mind, the gas seemed to have received some kind of instruction, and invaded towards Brother Zhao and others, condensing and forming little by little.
Brother Zhao and his party were completely unaware of the danger coming, but they didn't walk long before they discovered that the fog was gradually dispersing, and they could vaguely see the road ahead.
"Let me tell you, this fog won't last long."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone quickly realized something was wrong.
Rather than saying that the fog disperses, it is better to say that the fog converges towards the same place, so the surrounding dense fog tends to decrease.
Under the gaze of everyone, the mist actually revealed the outline of a human figure!
Brother Zhao and others looked on dumbfounded.
First the legs, then the torso, and then a white skeleton soon appeared in front of them!
"???"
In the vast fog, the fog turned into bones!
This is really incredible.
Brother Zhao and others rubbed their eyes, thinking that they were hallucinating before they woke up.
Although it is made of mist, it is lifelike and no different from the skeleton of a real person!
When they first saw this somewhat supernatural scene, even the well-informed Brother Zhao and the others were stunned on the spot. Their faces were pale and their throats were a little tight.
"Zhao, Brother Zhao, we are afraid that we are not really evil!"
This time Brother Zhao could no longer say anything to refute.
The white bones formed by the mist were striding towards them. Since they were formed by the mist, there was no sound, but those empty eyes made people shudder.
Facing that gloomy gaze, everyone felt their scalps go numb, and they saw in a daze that the gate of the Infinite Hell was pushed open, and countless pairs of ghost hands stretched out from it, trying to drag them down.
Ordinary people would have been so frightened that their legs would weaken when faced with such a supernatural event. Brother Zhao and the others had some skills and fairly good psychological quality, so they suddenly threw the tool and smashed it forward.
But it couldn't stop the footsteps of the bones. Those things penetrated straight through the body made of mist.
It's right to think about it. Since the white bones are made of fog, and the fog is invisible and invisible, how can it cause a blow to it.
"Run!"
I don't know who squeezed out two words from the throat, piercing the pale night sky, and then everyone woke up.
Everyone immediately dispersed with a bang, instantly lost in the mist, but they didn't know that it was this move that accelerated their death.
As they separated, the mist seemed to be alive, gathering spontaneously and completely blocking them all.
In fact, the distance between everyone was not far, but the thick fog completely enveloped the figures of others.
When the group of people noticed that they were separated, they couldn't find their companions if they wanted to turn back. No matter where they ran, they were surrounded by thick fog.
They were like a helpless boat, floating in this foggy sea, in danger of capsizing at any time.
The most frightening thing is that in the mist, there is a white skeleton staring at them.
Li Da, who was small and thin, moved forward in the heavy fog, feeling a little regretful about participating in this operation.
I originally wanted to show off my familiarity in front of the big boss, but it turned out that it was better now that I encountered such a supernatural thing.
What a bad luck!
Li Da complained silently in his heart, but did not dare to make a sound with his mouth, for fear of provoking the unclean thing.
However, he was afraid of something, and he seemed to notice a cold wind coming. He slowly turned his head, and he could even hear the sound of his teeth chattering.
The sound of rattling kept sounding. Li Da took a deep breath and turned around suddenly. Sure enough, he saw the white bones that were stealing souls and demanding lives!
Li Da turned around and was about to run away, but Bai Gu was faster than him. He came to him like a gust of wind and punched out violently!
The pair of bone hands made of condensed mist seemed to have no power, but Li Da felt the strong wind coming from his ears, as if even the air could be broken in half!
He subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but his small body was unable to resist such power. The huge pressure completely suppressed him in place.
"boom!"
Accompanied by a dull sound, it was as if the bones were broken with a punch.
Li Da's body was like a kite with its string broken, flying to the other side. He was vomiting blood, like a fish starved of oxygen on the shore.
Mist Bones did not look back, but continued to search for the next target, and soon the black eyes were locked on another person.
This man was quite strong, and when he noticed the chill coming from his back, his body suddenly bent downwards in an incredible arc like a loach.
He actually dodged that fatal punch!
However, although he was lucky enough to avoid the fist, his expression suddenly changed when he saw the bone-white whip leg so close at hand, and it was obviously too late to avoid it.
With a scream, White Bones kicked the person away, even worse than the Li Da who just fell.
All the bones in his body seemed to be falling apart. He was lying on the ground twitching, his face distorted.
The successive movements made the others pale, and they vaguely guessed what happened.
The faint smell of blood wafted in the air, making them even more uneasy, fearing that they would be the next to face death.
The remaining people were scurrying around like headless flies, their bodies shaking like sieves, but they had forgotten that since the white bones were produced by thick fog, that meant that they were connected to the fog.
No matter where they go, as long as they are in the fog, they will be found at any time.
Death is just a matter of time.
Like a cat catching a mouse, these people were separated by the thick fog and could not see the existence of other companions, but they could hear bursts of screams coming from the depths of the fog, indicating that they had encountered something unexpected.
The screams came one after another, and then became silent, without any movement, as if everything was swallowed up by the heavy fog.
At the end, only Brother Zhao was left. He looked pale and did not dare to think about why there was no sound around him.
Brother Zhao was like a frightened quail, and his body was shaking violently. He tried his best to hold his breath, silently praying in his heart not to be found by the monster.
He tiptoed through the fog, but he always felt like he was being watched. When he suddenly looked back, there was nothing behind him except the vast fog.
"Fuck you!"
The huge mental pressure is almost driving Brother Zhao crazy. The omnipresent gaze hits him from all directions, making him almost breathless.
There was no blood on Brother Zhao's face, and there was no trace of the arrogance he had before.
At this moment, he could feel that there was an invisible knife on his neck, and he was in danger of falling at any time.
But he was like a headless fly unable to find a way out in the fog.
At the moment when his spirit was on the verge of collapse, the fog in front of him changed again, and a white skeleton slowly walked out of it!
And there were even traces of blood hanging on the mist bones!
Brother Zhao's pupils shrank suddenly, and White Bones strode towards him. Seeing that there was no way to retreat, Brother Zhao felt hard, a look of violence appeared on his face, he clenched the tool in his hand and rushed towards White Bones.
His strength was weak in the eyes of the bones. He slowly stretched out his hand and grabbed his throat. The force was so strong that it seemed like he was going to be crushed!
Brother Zhao's feet were fluttering in the air, trying hard to break away but to no avail. Looking at those dark eyes, the look of fear made his facial features become a little distorted.
The next moment, with a crunching sound, he was suddenly thrown aside by the bones.
"ah!"
A scream pierced the night sky. Due to the severe pain, Brother Zhao's body slowly fell to the ground, and his blood almost flowed into a stream.
The night was like water, the breeze blew, and the fog quickly dissipated. Everything was the same as before. Except for a few more hideous and terrifying corpses on the ground, today's night was as dark as ever.
"Hiss-"
As a few slight snake hisses came from the darkness, a burst of rustling sounds followed.
"Young one, you're going home with me."
