Yanxuan and Tang Ping suddenly noticed that Lu Pingchuan had begun to bend down and carefully groped each corpse regardless of the putrid smell of the corpses. The two women felt a sense of discomfort and shock at the same time. Tang Ping frowned and asked road:
"Brother Lu, what are you doing?"
At this time, Lu Pingchuan had already touched all the corpses. When he straightened up, he threw a few storage bags in his hands for Tang Ping and Yanxuan to see, and then said:
"Hey, the people who killed them didn't care about their belongings. Although these casual cultivators stink, the spiritual stones inside will not stink. It would be a pity to leave them here."
Then he opened the storage bags one by one and looked at them. There were dead bodies at the feet of the five people. The smell of decay was strong, but Lu Pingchuan didn't care about it. This scene made Tang Ping and Yanxuan feel chills. , couldn't help but frowned.
Lu Pingchuan has no taboos by nature, so he doesn't care about this. He picked through the casual cultivator's storage bag and said:
"Hey, these guys have a lot of things, but not many spiritual stones. It seems that they are all poor people, but there are a lot of messy things. What are these, Brother Qian, come and see Let’s see if there’s anything we can use.”
Said Lu Pingchuan handed the storage bags in his hand to Qian Chao.
When Qianchao took down his head and looked at it, his face changed, and then rolled several of the storage bags over the bag and trembled on the ground. With the sound of "Ding Zero Dang", the cold shining was shining. The spirit sword bounced and scattered on the ground, which aroused the curiosity of Li Jian, Yanxuan and Tang Ping. They didn't know why Qian Chao did this, so they all looked at the ground.
Those spirit swords that Qian Chao fell to the ground looked like ordinary spirit swords, nothing special, but Qian Chao frowned, lowered his head and looked at it carefully, with a look of disgust on his face. He didn't even bother to use his hands. Straightening her waist, she gently kicked around the pile of spiritual swords with her feet, identifying them one by one. Tang Ping couldn't help but look at Qian Chao, and then she noticed the blue light shining in his two eyes. , has obviously opened up his "blue eye technique".
After watching it for a while, Qian Chao snorted and said:
"Hmph, it's not unjust that these casual cultivators died. These are all evil weapons on the ground. It seems that among these guys, except for those who are good at refining this object, they use this object. The refining of the evil sword requires the soul of the monk, so There are so many evil swords, I didn’t know how many people were going to be killed at the beginning, they deserve this retribution, alas! Brother Lu, you can’t keep these things, just destroy them.”
"Hehe, at first I thought these boys were a little unlucky, but now I think they deserve to die in this damn place, huh!"
As Lu Pingchuan spoke, he also used his feet to gather the evil swords together, then raised his big feet and stamped them down hard. He was a physical practitioner, and there were no restrictions on them in the third level of the cold pool. Big, you can use some means, so with that heavy step, sparks shot out from Lu Pingchuan's feet in the harsh and unpleasant sound, and those evil swords were broken apart by the step, and suddenly there was a sound like a sound coming from far away. The sound of ghosts crying and howling, and a thick smoke as black as ink poured out from Lu Pingchuan's feet and gradually dissipated.
They had seen similar scenes before, so they all knew that the dissipating black mist-like thing was the soul of the monk sealed in the evil sword.
"There are more," Qian Chao said again, then took out a stack of talisman papers from a storage bag, shook them to several companions, and said, "These are the so-called dirty talismans."
All four of them had heard Qian Chao talk about the so-called dirty talismans. There are methods for refining evil weapons in the art of weapon refining, such as those evil swords that were just destroyed by Lu Pingchuan. The soul is sealed in it to increase its power, which means that to refine an evil sword, you have to kill an innocent monk. The same is true for the dirty talismans in the talisman technique. There is also a formation on the talisman paper to seal the monk's soul. Such talismans are much more powerful than ordinary talismans.
The orthodox method of enhancing the power of a talisman is to grind some suitable gemstones into fine powder, mix it with cinnabar, and then mix it with spiritual tea water. The power of the talisman made with this can be more powerful. This is what Qian Chao used. method.
Of course, using orthodox methods to make powerful talismans is more expensive. Cinnabar is only the most basic base material, and those gems are the ones that are truly hard to find and have the highest value. Therefore, the further the talisman technique goes, the more powerful the talismans are. The more valuable they become, even some high-level talismans can only produce one or two in their lifetime.
The cost of making a dirty talisman is just to kill a few monks and take their souls. The more powerful the dirty talisman, the souls of monks with advanced cultivation or the souls of a large number of ordinary monks are blocked. In short, the talisman for making the dirty talisman is The teacher will always find a way.
Both methods can enhance the effect of the talisman, but one is good and the other is evil.
It was the first time for several people to see the dirty symbols. Out of curiosity, they all reached out and took one from Qian Chao's hand to take a closer look. There were all the runes on it that they couldn't understand.
These people all have Qian Chao's talisman, such as Qian Chao's incarnation talisman. They all got a lot of it from Qian Chao, and they all know how to use it, so they all know what Qian Chao's talisman looks like when they hold it in their hands. Feeling, in fact, no feeling. The dirty talisman is very different from Qian Chao's talisman in the hand. It always feels a little heart-stopping. Although the winding runes are incomprehensible, the ink marks left behind are not like Qian Chao's talisman. It was vermilion instead of black red, and there was a faint smell of blood. Tang Ping couldn't help but bring the talisman in her hand to the tip of her nose to smell it, but the smell of corruption that hit her nose felt like she had lost her sense of smell. He could only look at Qian Chao with confusion and asked:
"This talisman..."
Qian Chao guessed Tang Ping's question by looking at her actions, nodded and said:
"It's blood. Well, if my guess is correct, each of these dirty talismans used different monks' blood and soul when they were made. The soul of the same monk, the essence and blood of the same monk. The dirty talismans made in this way It's the most powerful thing, but it's just too vicious."
Originally, Yanxuan wanted to imitate Tang Ping and take a sniff, but when he heard what Qian Chao said, he stopped immediately and hurriedly returned the one in his hand to Qian Chao.
Qian Chao took back all the dirty talismans one by one and said:
"You can't keep this thing."
After saying that, he put a large pile of dirty talismans in his hand on the ground, then took a few steps back, and threw a "Wildfire Talisman" over, and a fire immediately ignited. What is surprising is that those When the talisman burned, the flames turned black and red, and thick black smoke shot up.
Tang Ping covered her mouth and nose with her skirt sleeves, looked up, sighed and said:
"This is indeed a place where casual cultivators and evil cultivators gather. There is a mess of everything."
Qian Chao took out some things from those storage bags and said:
"Today is really an eye-opener. Come on, there's something even more strange. Let's see what this is?"
This time Qian Chao took out several transparent crystal bottles. The workmanship of the bottles was very exquisite. They were shaped like a big belly and a small mouth. The thin mouth of the bottle had a cork stopper, and there were stickers on the mouth of each bottle. A talisman is meant to seal the mouth of the bottle. The bottles are transparent, so you can clearly see inside. Inside these crystal bottles, there is about half a bottle of something like light green smoke tumbling back and forth.
Li Jian knew what it was with just a moment's notice, and couldn't help but frown heavily.
Tang Ping, Yan Xuan and Lu Pingchuan couldn't recognize it for a moment, so they got closer and took a closer look.
Seeing this, Qian Chao said softly:
"Inside every little bottle, there was once a human life!"
"What!" Tang Ping understood now. She looked at Qian Chao with wide eyes and asked in surprise, "Is this... the soul of a monk?"
When she said this, Yanxuan and Lu Pingchuan both understood and were immediately surprised. Yanxuan backed away in shock, while Lu Pingchuan moved closer to take a closer look.
Then Lu Pingchuan also asked:
"Is this what a monk's soul looks like? Why were all the things that appeared just now black?"
Qian Chao said:
"This is what the unused soul looks like. The talisman at the mouth of the bottle is to prevent the soul inside from escaping. Well, some people refine evil weapons and some make dirty talismans, then someone will provide the souls of monks to these people. have a look!"
As Qian Chao spoke, he began to take out such crystal bottles from one of the storage bags. Each bottle had a talisman attached to its mouth. Such crystals could be found in several storage bags. After a while, the money wave stopped. When I looked again, there were nearly a hundred such crystal bottles piled on the ground. It was really a big pile. Under the bright light in the cave, the crystal bottles shone. , but after knowing what was inside, I felt that this scene was a bit scary. After all, nearly a hundred monks who did not know their gender, their faces, or their names had long since lost their bodies, but their souls had been taken. The walking belts were brought here, either to refine evil weapons or to make dirty talismans.
Yanxuan was stunned. Each bottle contained a human life. The number of these bottles in front of her...if those people were standing here, they would be a large, dark group. She couldn't help but exclaimed:
"So many! Who...can these people be?"
"Alas," Tang Ping sighed, "who knows? In the world of spiritual practice, let alone those casual religious societies disappearing for no reason, even some disciples from aristocratic families who go out may never come back. It's common. thing."
Li Jian looked at the crystal bottles piled on the ground and said in a deep voice:
"It's really not peaceful in this world of cultivation! So many people died in vain just for the selfish interests of some guys. Humph, in the future, when foundation building can go out, if you encounter guys who do this kind of business, you will never let go if you can kill them! "
Lu Pingchuan also said:
"That's right! Hey, Brother Qian, what should I do with the contents in these bottles?"
"Just pull out the stopper, or simply break the bottle and let the soul inside dissipate on its own."
"Yeah, I'll do it!"
After Lu Pingchuan finished speaking, there was a loud crashing sound, and as the crystal bottles shattered, a burst of green smoke rose up and then disappeared.
After such a fuss, Tang Ping and Yan Xuan almost ignored the strong smell of corruption here. When they looked away from the dissipated smoke, they saw Qian Chao rummaging through the storage bags.
"Is there anything else?" Yanxuan asked.
"Of course," Qian Chao said, taking out a few small red bottles and showing them to Yanxuan, "Hey, guess what these are?"
Those bottles were not red, but were also transparent crystal bottles. Naturally, the contents inside were red. Yanxuan and the others roughly understood after just one glance. They must be the essence and blood of the monks, taken from the subdued monks. Yes, the process of extracting a monk's essence and blood must be very cruel, because the monk's bloodline stagnates after he dies, and it must be taken alive, and killing a monk in such a cruel way is just to make a dirty talisman.
"These people are really hateful!" Yanxuan was also very angry at this behavior of treating people as human beings and only using them as materials.
That's not all yet. Qian Chao found some jade elixirs that were refined using monks' bodies as cauldrons from those storage bags. The person who recognized the objects was Yanxuan. After everyone saw them, he asked Lu Pingchuan One foot trampled it to pieces; there were also some spiritual weapons used to cast harmful nightmare spells. These things were even more frightening. All the spiritual weapons were actually made from bones taken from monks. Look. It was eerie. Tang Ping said that such spells could only be used secretly to harm people and could not be used in a fight. After everyone saw it, they asked Lu Pingchuan to raise his big feet and crush them with his feet; the rest was There is nothing important anymore. I also found a lot of weapon refining materials from the storage bag. Well, even refining evil weapons requires ordinary mineral materials, so these things all belong to Qian Chao. There were also some ordinary elixirs, but after Yanxuan saw them, he disliked the quality of those elixirs and just asked Qian Chao to throw them away. Finally, there were a lot of books and account books. Qian Chao took a look at these things. Then they were all put away.
