The State of Chu is located in the south of the east and has a special geographical environment. It is close to the Shiwan Mountains in southern Xinjiang.
Especially in the southern region, influenced by the southern Xinjiang land veins, countless strange peaks protrude, dangerous rocks stand, and the dense vegetation breeds a lot of miasma and poisonous insects, making witchcraft rampant here.
The mixed people of various ethnic groups created complex and united local clans, which resulted in the Chu royal family's ability to govern the local area being weak.
The terrain is dangerous, voodoo is rampant, and banditry occurs from time to time, making it easy for many foreign merchants to die in a foreign country.
Therefore, in this land, you can often see corpse drivers and corpse carriers who help people return to their roots.
For these professionals who are easily tabooed in other places, in the southern region of Chu State, as long as they do not show their identity blatantly, they can enter and exit tea stalls and first-class restaurants normally.
Under such a trend, in order to test whether the control of the "Wandering Man" was related to his identity, Chu Tai, who left Taiyi Temple, specially raised his shoes, dressed up a little, and used illusions to transform himself into the image of a short, middle-aged warlock. I found a path that was walked all year round and walked forward along the road.
Because he didn't use his supernatural powers to rush, Chu Tai walked along the trail for half a month before turning to the official road.
On that day, the sun was very hot. Chu Tai, who was walking on the road, suddenly felt something was wrong with the atmosphere around him. He turned his head and looked at a place where the Yin Qi was rising a few hundred meters away from the official road.
Chu Tai had encountered similar situations several times in the past ten days or so. Most of them were places where the power of the earth veins was intertwined and the vitality was entangled.
If it is relatively close to a village or town, it is probably a place where the village gods and witches practice their magic. Chu Tai will just take a look at it and leave; otherwise, it is mostly an unowned land. If there is suitable energy gathered in it, Chu Tai will also collect some of it. To repair the magic weapon obtained from Wodan.
In the past half month, Chu Tai has completely erased the last spell of the three magic weapons and brought them under control.
According to research, among the three magic weapons, the Liuhe circle prototype with the best material and the best sacrificial refining techniques should be the Yin ring in the Taiyi two-phase ring, the secret magic weapon of Jinhua Sect.
It's just that Taoist Wodan didn't find the ten thousand year cold jade suitable for worshiping and refining the Yin ring, so he modified it and used deep sea cold iron and Kanshui sinking silver to refine the Liuhe circle.
Compared with the original magic ban effect, the Liuhe Circle lacks the mystery of protecting the mind and resisting external demons, but has a little more edge and the effect of trapping objects and capturing people.
After Chu Tai refined it, he wore it with him for personal protection.
Compared with the Liuhe Circle, the cloud material of the other two magic weapons is too poor, and the ghost flag is too incomplete.
In half a month, Chu Tai refined the clouds and mist again, weaved silk threads, filled in the remaining flags, and refined them into the Seven Yin Transformation Evil Flags learned from the "Beixuan Hidden Scenery Huantian Tu" as his own performance. A magic weapon used by side sect warlocks.
Most of the vitality he encountered on his recent journey was refined into this new flag.
Now, as long as one more Yin attribute evil energy is refined, the pattern of seven Yin evil spirits on the flag will be completely formed. This makes Chu Tai a little sensitive to the Yin attribute energy that he may encounter.
He looked intently and saw the two of them lying on the place where the vitality gathered. There was another person standing beside them to help carry something like a bronze mirror, so that more sunlight could shine on the two of them.
Glancing at the lines and structure on the mirror, Chu Tai immediately understood that this was a side method of gathering yang and driving away yin.
'Although these methods can exorcise evil spirits by concentrating sunlight, the lines on the mirror are all wrong. Isn't it a bit too random? '
Thinking of this, Chu Tai recalled the many witches and witches he had met in the past half month, and suddenly realized how difficult it is for ordinary people to have access to the complete inheritance of immortal magic, and he could obtain the Jinhua Sect. What a lucky inheritance.
While feeling emotional, Chu Tai also looked at the three of them from a distance.
The oldest among them is a skinny old man.
His head was covered with a yellow cloth, and there were two oozing abscesses on his bark-like face. There were also yellow marks on his sleeves and back, which were probably abscesses.
Under the concentrated sunlight, the abscesses on his face emitted a yellowish-brown mist that was visible to the naked eye, making it intimidating.
The other man lying also was much shorter, but his appearance was somewhat similar to that of the old man. It was unclear whether they were father and son, or uncle and nephew.
The only problem with the short man is that his left forearm is wrapped in a piece of cloth with cinnabar outlines, which is giving off a faint chill in the sun.
With just one glance, Chu Tai could tell there was something wrong with the man's arm.
The man's arm was very stiff, and the color of his fingers did not match his skin tone. In the palm of his hand, there was a wound that seemed to have been opened by a sharp weapon. The flesh and blood that had been opened had turned black and purple, and a little purple-black congestion appeared in the sunlight. It flows out continuously under the light.
'Corpse gas enters the body? '
Chu Tai frowned slightly and looked at the last tall man. He was burly and carried a lot of things on his back. His expression was a little silly, but his face was a little childish. He looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old.
What's even more interesting is that this tall man is the only one among the three who can cultivate magic power, even though his magic power is so inferior that Chu Tai can't stand it.
'Pui Yi's spirit-moving qi, and the wreckage and bones' qi. I remember that they are classified as eighth-grade miscellaneous qi, but with a little refinement, they can be transformed into the seventh-grade cadaver-removing and earth-grave qi. I didn't expect that there would be people who directly absorbed these two kinds of vitality cultivation without practicing it, etc...'
'Looking at this man's posture, it's not that he hasn't practiced it yet, but he relies on instinct, so he allows the energy to gather in his body? Why is this happening...'
Chu Tai, who had studied physiognomy and was proficient in medical skills, paid close attention and gradually saw that the young man's destiny was shallow and his energy, energy and spirit were unbalanced, and he seemed to have lost his soul.
Moreover, when observing the young man's face, Chu Tai felt that the young man looked familiar. When he calculated the young man's fate, he was even more surprised to find that the young man seemed to have some connection with himself.
'An old friend from the past? '
Chu Tai lowered his head, wondering if he should give him some advice and let him refine the magic power in his body. After all, neither the filthy energy of cultivating spirits and moving bones nor the miscellaneous energy of corpses and dead bones were suitable for use by living people.
But after carefully thinking about his own problems and the actual situation of avoiding Tianmen Shenjun, Chu Tai chose to leave after staying there for a while and headed to the next town along the road.
This time, he quickened his pace, and every step he took was tens of meters away. In less than half a quarter of an hour, he was close to a new foothold, and he sensed a new place where Yin Qi gathered.
Looking up, it was a small bluestone tower ten feet high. The top was covered with tiles with incantations written on it. There were no doors or windows in the whole, and there were only two holes covered by iron sheets as passages.
"Baby Tower, since when did Chu State have such a thing?"
Looking at the small tower, Chu Tai felt the faint ghost energy around the tower and couldn't help but be surprised.
