Zhao Lin could not see or hear, and his consciousness was blocked, but his echolocation locked Sheng Jinlong tightly.
In order to confuse Sheng Jinlong, he deliberately showed a look of extreme panic on his face, as if he was stunned.
Sheng Jinlong had no doubt that he was there and was about to cast an attack when Zhao Lin suddenly raised his hand and knocked out the second Yin Evil Pearl.
laugh!
"ah……"
Sheng Jinlong saw the black beads coming in an instant and was so frightened that he lost his mind.
Just now, I only got a little bit of evil energy, and I lost most of my mana. If I get hit by another one, I am afraid that even the Dao foundation will be severely damaged, and I will have no hope of building a foundation for the rest of my life.
He couldn't figure it out in his heart. How could Zhao Lin find out about himself when he was obviously hit by the Sky Blindness Technique?
I wanted to use the spiritual energy shield to block it, but there was a spell condensing on my hand, and I couldn't discern any spiritual power.
Just when he was in a state of shock, Zhao Lin fired a stone roaring fist.
boom!
The Yin Evil Pearl shattered in mid-air, and driven by the energy, all the evil energy slapped Sheng Jinlong's body.
Sheng Jinlong screamed, fell straight from the air, and fell heavily to the ground.
Zhao Lin felt dazed for a while, his hearing gradually recovered, and he could see with his eyes... The six senses returned to their original positions.
After his feet landed on the ground, Zhao Lin put on his animal skin gloves and quickly searched Sheng Jinlong's body, even taking off his outer robe.
They found two lock bags, three high-grade talismans, a bottle of Bigu Pill, two pieces of spirit beast meat jerky, and a set of exquisite inner armor.
Sheng Jinlong did not lose consciousness, because his whole body was on fire, and he felt as if he was being tortured all the time. It was difficult to lose consciousness, so he could only watch Zhao Lin search him.
After a while, Wei Shi and Li Yuanyou rushed over.
"Brother Zhao is so good at martial arts, I admire him!"
Wei Shi gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely.
"Bah! You practice evil arts and collude with ghosts. If the sect finds out, the two of you will be executed!"
Sheng Jinlong's face was distorted and he roared with hatred.
"What kind of evil skill? Don't spit on others!"
Wei Shi was stunned when he heard this, and then yelled angrily.
"I didn't practice evil skills, how did I get the evil energy? And I made it into beads!"
Sheng Jinlong sneered, rolled his eyelids and said, "And what's going on with the ghost next to you?"
"Nonsense!"
Wei Shi was speechless immediately, stepped forward and kicked him hard.
Sheng Jinlong looked confident, "Kill me if you can, otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?"
Zhao Lin asked pleasantly.
"Let me go and let this matter go."
Sheng Jinlong's eyes came into contact with Zhao Lin's eyes, his heart suddenly trembled, and his tone softened.
As he said this, he made up his mind that once he regained his magic power, he would never let them go, even if he tried to stay grounded for another ten years.
Zhao Lin said nothing and smiled noncommittally.
"Brother Zhao, what should I do?"
Wei Shi asked in a low voice, suddenly realizing that the matter was very difficult.
Sheng Jinlong had his back against the Sheng family, and he couldn't kill or release him. It seemed like there was a problem no matter what he did.
"Easy to handle."
Zhao Lin walked over with the iron ruler and stabbed Sheng Jinlong directly in the abdomen.
"ah……"
Sheng Jinlong screamed like a slaughtering pig, his whole body twitched in pain, and tears flowed down his face.
Wei Shi didn't expect Zhao Lin to be so cruel and was shocked: "Brother Zhao, he is from the Sheng family, and Taizu is a monk from the Zifu..."
Zhao Lin interrupted him rudely: "So what?"
Wei Shi glanced at Sheng Jinlong who was rolling on the ground, and said anxiously: "If the Sheng family finds out, we may be in big trouble. Moreover, if the monk disappears in the small world, the sect will definitely send someone to investigate."
Zhao Lin was not angry and asked patiently: "Brother Wei, what do you think we should do?"
Wei Shi was only eighteen years old and had been practicing in the Lingdao Temple since he was a minor. He had never experienced storms and did not know that people's hearts were sinister. It was normal to have such a reaction.
"I think... a good lesson would be enough, right?"
Wei Shi was not sure.
"Then what? How do you think he will repay us after letting the tiger return to the mountains?"
Zhao Lin deliberately added an accent to the word "repay".
Faced with continuous questioning, Wei Shi realized the seriousness of the problem and hesitated: "But the Sheng family is powerful..."
Zhao Lin shook his head slowly, "It is precisely because the Sheng family is so powerful that he deserves to die even more!"
"If we let him go, you and I will face endless entanglement and suppression from now on, and our lives may not be saved."
"Although I don't know the Sheng family well, if you can raise such a thing, you can tell what kind of family tradition it is."
"One more thing, he has been infected by the evil spirit of the Yin Corpse, and his path in this life is hopeless. If we let him go...won't the Sheng family pursue it?"
The expression on Wei Shi's face changed, he struggled for a while, and finally showed a firm look, and said in a deep voice: "What will happen if the sect finds out?"
When Sheng Jinlong heard this, he knew that Wei Shi had been persuaded, and he quickly begged for mercy: "Don't kill me, I surrender, and I promise I will never retaliate..."
Zhao Lin ignored him and continued to say to Wei Shi: "If you don't tell, and I don't tell, who will know?"
Wei Shi fell silent.
Sheng Jinlong's face changed drastically, his tone changed, and he threatened: "Our Sheng family has powerful secret techniques, and we will definitely be able to track you!"
"Very good, I hope your Sheng family's secret technique can revive you."
Zhao Lin sarcastically handed the iron ruler to Wei Shi, "Brother Wei, it's your turn."
People's hearts are fickle, trust belongs to trust, and only leaving a handle is the safest thing.
Wei Shi's heart trembled, and he understood that Zhao Lin was asking him to surrender his name. He hesitated for a moment, then he took the iron ruler, pointed it at Sheng Jinlong's chest, and pierced it.
There was a "pop" sound, and blood poured out instantly.
"Our Sheng family will not let you go."
Sheng Jinlong knew that he was absolutely unlucky and gasped.
"Fellow Daoist Li..."
Zhao Lin turned around and waved to Li Yuanyou.
"Do I have a share too?"
Li Yuanyou simply rushed forward and grabbed Sheng Jinlong's throat with his tentacles, strangled him alive, and even sucked out the soul that escaped.
"Why can ghosts talk..."
This was Sheng Jinlong's last thought in this world, and then he knew nothing more.
Bang!
The iron ruler fell to the ground.
Wei Shi's heart was up and down, and he stood there for a long time, before slowly accepting the fact that he had killed someone.
Zhao Lin did not disturb him, but placed the lock bag, talismans, elixirs, and spirit animal meat on the corpse, preparing to burn it.
Wei Shi came back to his senses and said with some regret: "There must be a lot of good things in the lock bag. He should have been forced to hand it over just now."
Zhao Lin shook his head and said: "It's not a pity at all. We can't take this person's things!"
As he said this, he picked up a talisman and saw a four-leaf clover engraved on the upper right corner of the talisman. Each leaf had a pattern that looked like a wine cup.
It's obviously a family emblem.
"Many of the magical talismans of the Immortal Cultivation Family are refined by themselves and marked on them."
"Whether you use it yourself or resell it outside, it may be traced. The safest way is to destroy it all."
Wei Shi was shocked and realized that compared with Zhao Lin, he understood nothing.
But then I thought about it, since Zhao Lin was so considerate, today's incident shouldn't be investigated, right?
Before setting the fire, Zhao Lin checked the talisman.
The three talismans are all of high quality, one is the giant power talisman, one is the swift sword talisman, and one is the water-bending talisman.
When he saw the last water-bending talisman, Zhao Lin's heart moved.
There is no water movement technique in the spiritual cultivation map. Currently, I have mastered the three types of attack, defense and escape spells. I can choose an auxiliary spell.
Waterbending is a good choice.
The word "yu" in Yushui has two meanings, one is to resist and the other is to control.
Waterbending will form a water-shaped circulation around the body, which has good resistance to water-based attack spells.
But the greater use of this spell is diving.
The monks can move underwater with the help of the spiritual energy shield, but doing so consumes spiritual energy and is not very fast.
With the blessing of waterbending, one can move freely through the water, even as good as monsters living in the water.
Zhao Lin also seized the water-bending talisman from the bandit cultivator, but the quality was not comparable to that of Sheng Jinlong.
Since many people carry water-bending charms, it shows that this spell does have merit.
You can't keep the talisman, but you can learn the spell first.
"Brother Wei, let me activate this talisman and try it. See if there is anything abnormal."
Zhao Lin thought of a reason, grabbed the water-bending talisman, and slapped it with his palm.
The talisman emits a green light, quickly condensing the aura of water, forming a circulation around Zhao Lin's body, like a long streamer.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths!
Three words appear in the seventh grid of the spiritual chart: waterbending.
There are four-petal plum blossoms next to the font, indicating that you can practice to the master level.
Originally, the waterbending technique should have appeared in the sixth grid, but Zhao Lin had just been struck by a sky-blind spell, and the grid was occupied by it.
Zhao Lin only knew a little bit about sky blindness and had not thought about whether to practice this spell. He planned to go back and study it before making a decision.
"Brother Zhao, you are right! When the spell was formed just now, there was a four-leaf clover emblem on the water ring."
Wei Shi walked over and said sincerely.
"It's expected, so I can't keep any of it."
Zhao Lin responded.
There are restrictions inside the lock bag. If it is opened by force, it is likely to cause an explosion.
The three of them retreated to a place more than ten feet away and hid themselves behind a large rock.
Zhao Lin made a secret and cast a spell, releasing more than a dozen flaming arrows, all of which hit Sheng Jinlong's body, and a blazing fire suddenly rose.
Not long after, only two explosions were heard, and the items in the lock bag turned into countless debris and burst out.
All three of them felt a strong wave of air coming towards their faces, their ears were buzzing, and their feet were shaking.
Along with the explosion, something flew out of the dust and smoke and hit a big rock.
There was a "clang" sound, and a spark flew out, then fell to the ground and rolled far away.
As luck would have it, it rolled right to the feet of a few people.
Zhao Lin took a closer look and saw a round, black, fist-sized "iron block" with a smooth surface and a faint green light.
"Wu Yang Tie!"
Zhao Lin raised his eyebrows and blurted out.
The name of this object is Wuyang Iron. Zhao Lin saw it at last year's Dharma performance meeting. The weapon refiner brother specially explained it, so he recognized it at a glance.
Wuyang iron is a top-grade weapon refining. When refining a magic weapon, adding a certain proportion of Wuyang iron to fine gold can greatly increase its hardness and toughness, and the value of the magic weapon will also increase several times.
You must know that although the magic weapon is hard, it is impossible for two equally hard magic weapons to collide in the air at high speed and escape unscathed.
In fact, magic weapons are consumables just like mortal weapons. Zhao Lin's iron ruler has only been used a few times, but the surface is already full of holes, mostly caused by Sheng Jinlong's antler blade.
Zhao Lin was a little excited. This fist-sized piece of Wuyang Iron can strengthen at least seven small magic weapons. According to the market price, it is worth about three thousand spiritual stones.
With this piece of Wuyang Iron, you will be able to perfect Miao Kefa's two spells in the future, and you won't have to worry about spiritual stones in a short time.
What's more important is that although Wuyang Iron is relatively valuable, it is not very rare, and it is naturally generated, so it is impossible to retain spiritual consciousness or secret memories.
Take it back to the county for refining, and the Sheng family won't be able to find it at all.
"Brother Zhao, you can keep this piece of Wuyang Iron."
Wei Shi also recognized it and made suggestions.
"Okay. But there is only one piece of Wuyang Iron..."
"Brother Zhao, you don't have to be polite. You captured him, so you should accept him."
"Then I would be disrespectful."
Zhao Linqian gave in and put Wuyang Tie into the lock bag.
The three of them returned to the place where the explosion had just occurred. The corpse and the items in the lock bag had been reduced to ashes, leaving only a set of inner armor intact.
"This thing is not easy to handle."
Zhao Lin frowned when he remembered that there was a deer antler blade on the other side of the magic circle, which could not be destroyed either.
"What should we do?"
Wei Shi asked.
"Put it away first, and then find a place to bury it later."
"Okay, what do we do next?"
Unconsciously, Wei Shi started asking Zhao Lin for his opinion on everything.
"Clean the battlefield and remove all traces!"
Zhao Lin had been a detective in the mortal world and had quite a lot of experience in this area, so he said without hesitation.
Next, the three of them searched carefully along the route Sheng Jinlong took, erasing all traces of spells and magic weapons.
After finishing it and checking it twice, Zhao Lin felt relieved.
"When Sheng Jinlong chased him into the cave from the outside, he hit him everywhere with his antler blade. Let's go out and clean it up."
"good!"
The three of them walked out of the cave as they talked, and when they came to the pear-shaped cave, they suddenly saw a red talisman with gold edges on the ground.
"Brother Zhao, there is a Zhang Fu here."
Wei Shi let out a light "Eh" and asked curiously: "Did Sheng Jinlong accidentally drop it?"
Zhao Lin was stunned for a while, then said in a hoarse voice, "It's...the Yuan Explosion Talisman!"
There was a look of shock on his face.
"So cruel!"
Wei Shi immediately understood that Sheng Jinlong deliberately placed the Yuan Explosion Talisman here in order to prevent the two of them from escaping.
If the two of them had not fought with him but wanted to escape, they probably wouldn't be standing here intact.
Zhao Lin also felt lingering fear. He had just chased Sheng Jinlong and almost reached here.
I tried my best to win a move, but I didn't expect that my opponent still had a trump card.
It is indeed difficult to guard against hidden tricks in the world of immortality. You must be more careful when doing things in the future.
Sheng Jinlong was dead, so the talisman would not explode. However, for safety reasons, the three of them retreated to a distance. Zhao Lin released a flaming arrow and hit the talisman.
The Yuan Explosion Talisman did not explode, but burned for a while and quickly turned into ashes.
