Chapter 147 Blood Talisman

Zheng Fa is not some blood-thirsty pervert.

At least he thought not.

The reason why he was interested in this man's blood was actually due to a discovery - there was actually a magic talisman in this man's blood! When the disciples of Uncle Pang's lineage caught him back, he was dying. If there was no heat in his chest, he would have been buried long ago.

When Zheng Fa saw him, his limbs were cold and stiff, his breathing was so weak that it was almost inaudible, and dark red blood was flowing from his lips.

Zheng Fa once hesitated whether to save this person or not.

Although in the shopkeeper's mouth, this man sounded a little silly.

But he is a disciple of the Great Freedom Demon Sect. It is hard to say whether he is being insincere or is deceiving the shopkeeper.

Let’s just say that even if this person is foolish enough to be loyal to the Jiushan Sect.

Given the control that the Demon Ancestor has over these descendants, Zheng Fa couldn't be completely at ease.

Those brothers actually brought him back to see if they could get some confession - if there was any goodwill, even someone like Zheng Fa who had received modern education would not dare to do such a thing to someone from the Demon Sect.

This person has been placed in a small hut far away from the core of Jiushan Sect, with many talismans pasted on his body and in the house.

Until two days ago.

The man was still unconscious at the time.

Zheng Fa was practicing the "Dongxu Spirit Eye" according to Uncle Pang's secret method when he accidentally saw the blood at the corner of the other person's mouth - and then he found a surprise.

There are some seemingly magical symbols in this person's blood! All monks have spiritual power in their bodies.

But for a Jiushan Sect cultivator like Zheng Fa, the spiritual energy in their bodies is scattered, and only when they are deliberately operating will it show a certain pattern.

But the spiritual power in this person's blood seemed to be running spontaneously along the trajectory of the talisman -

No.

This is not a talisman.

It took Zheng Fa several days of observation to confirm that the symbols in this man's blood were different from those in the void.

If we analyze it according to the Three Symbols Law -

In both symbol diagrams, the parts of the five elements sub-symbols are exactly the same.

But the difference between the other two types of unknown sub-characters is huge.

The main differences are in quantity and type.

If these two unclear sub-symbols are called categories A and B.

Among the symbol patterns in this person's blood, the types of Class A sub-symbols are obviously much fewer.

Category B is even fewer—only two types!

And every symbol in his blood must contain these two sub-symbols.

This discovery aroused Zheng Fa's great interest in this man's blood.

He guessed that this might have something to do with the nature of the magic sect's skills.

What made Zheng Fa a little helpless was that once the man's blood left the body, the talismans in the blood would dissipate within half an hour - this forced him to come and draw a little blood every day.

In order to maintain blood supply, he also put several healing talismans on the man.

I don’t know if it’s because his talisman is too effective or if this person’s will to survive is too strong.

This guy actually woke up!

…

When the young man woke up again, he saw Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Yuan staring at him.

"May I have your name?"

Zheng Fa asked.

The young man did not move, and seemed reluctant to answer Zheng Fa's question. After a long while, he spoke: "Lin Bufan."

"This surname is good, but the name is a bit problematic." Zheng Fa was silent for a moment, then said, "If you remove the word 'not', I think you can become something great."

"?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Lin Bufan's dead face.

"Since you are awake, you should know that you have been captured by our Jiushan Sect." Zheng Fa brought Senior Sister Yuan with him to get some information from this person: "What is your intention in coming to our Jiushan Sect with you and that other person?"

"That person, what happened to that person?" Lin Bufan's face suddenly became excited.

"Dead."

Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Yuan looked at each other and knew that Lin Bufan had some relationship with the dead man.

“Dead…” Lin Bufan’s eyes darkened, but he did not feel any pain. It seemed that he had already guessed the answer: “Then he…”

"Cremated and buried."

Zheng Fa said frankly.

It was he who pushed for this matter - Zheng Fa was not comfortable keeping the man's body.

"He is buried beside the riverbank where he died."

"Cremation..." Lin Bufan was silent for a while before he sighed, "That's good... at least the body isn't left exposed in the wilderness."

"What do you want to ask?" Lin Bufan raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Fa, seeming to be willing to cooperate.

"Why are you staring at me?"

"Not just you, we will take action against all the geniuses of the Hundred Immortals Alliance if we have the chance." Lin Bufan paused and said, "Including Zhang Wuyi."

"Senior Sister Zhang?"

Zheng Fa was shocked. This group of people sneaked into Jiushan Sect just after Senior Sister Zhang left the sect.

It certainly doesn't seem like a whim, but rather something that was well prepared.

"So your target is Senior Sister Zhang?"

He stood up suddenly, his voice a little anxious.

“I don’t know.” Lin Bufan said directly: “I don’t have a high position in the Holy…Devil Sect. I can’t understand the matter about Zhang Wuyi.”

"What I can say is that someone must be eyeing Zhang Wuyi." Lin Bufan's voice suddenly revealed a hint of hatred: "Among them is the person who asked me and my uncle to come to Jiushan Sect. That person wants to kill you!"

"……uncle?"

"The Great Freedom Demon Sect respects the Lin family name and says that we are a family. But over the years, there are more than tens of thousands of people with the surname Lin..." Lin Bufan looked at the roof: "My parents passed away when I was young, and my uncle raised me."

After he said this, it seemed as if he was unwilling to reveal anything more.

No matter what Zheng Fa asked, he either remained silent or said he didn't know.

"You are now a prisoner of my Jiushan Sect. Have you seen the talisman on your body? If you use your spiritual power or walk out of this room, you will die." Seeing that he was unwilling to say anything, Zheng Fa was silent for a while and stood up: "If you remember anything else, tell me."

Zheng Fa hurriedly walked out of the room with Senior Sister Yuan.

Lin Bufan looked at the backs of the two men, his eyes flashing with brilliance.

…

"Junior brother, can you trust his words?"

"His intentions are not pure, but there are definitely some parts that he is not lying about." Zheng Fa said as he walked: "This person probably wants to avenge his uncle and wants to lead us to deal with the person who killed his uncle."

"……Too."

This person's behavior actually did not hide his purpose - but on the other hand, the Jiushan Sect could not take this matter lightly.

"Sister, I need to send a message to Sister Zhang and tell her what happened here." Zheng Fa thought for a while and then said, "I also need to go and discuss this with Master."

Senior Sister Yuan nodded, apparently agreeing with Zheng Fa's opinion.

"On the other hand, Senior Sister, you have to help me keep an eye on this person." Zheng Fa looked back at the room where Lin Bufan was lying: "We know too little about the Demon Sect. I am in the open while the enemy is in the dark. This person has been abandoned now, and I am afraid he does have some second thoughts - maybe we can get some other benefits."

"Leave it to me!"

Senior Sister Yuan nodded.

…

Zheng Fa thought about the talismans he got from Lin Bufan's blood, and compared them with the talismans he had learned before in his mind.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The Three-Character Law is not perfect.

Among the three types of sub-symbols, the five elements sub-symbols are the clearest and easiest to characterize.

The other two types of sub-symbols are extremely vague in terms of quantity, type and function.

But the talismans in Lin Bufan's blood opened a small window for Zheng Fa's thinking - especially since there were only two types of Type B sub-talismans in this person's blood.

And it will appear regularly.

If you compare it with the talismans that Zheng Fa had learned before.

There was a more important discovery - one of the two Type B sub-symbols in this person's blood was commonly seen in the previous symbol diagrams.

But the other one...never appeared!

He couldn't help but have an idea - this sub-talisman is one of the essential secrets of the magic sect's skills.

Even thinking deeper.

Could it be that this sub-symbol itself corresponds to the Demon Ancestor of the Great Freedom Demon Sect?

Thinking of this, Zheng Fa couldn't help but think of the so-called interactive sub-symbols that Tang Lingwu mentioned - does this sub-symbol represent the invisible and close connection between the disciples of the Demon Sect and the Demon Ancestor?

Thinking about it this way, the second law of Tang's talisman actually has some meaning of coming true.

However, Zheng Fa did not dare to study this thing recklessly, and he did not even dare to draw this symbol.

Who knows if a demon ancestor will pop up...

…

"Junior brother!" Li Nuo hurried over and shouted to Zheng Fa, "I did it! I did it!"

"…What's done?"

Seeing Li Nuo's overjoyed expression, Zheng Fa asked, "I made a talisman!" Li Nuo shouted, "The talisman of the Yang Shen Talisman!"

"……real?"

Zheng Fa was also a little surprised. He actually didn't have much hope. Li Nuo's father blew himself to death and only produced a talisman.

Now, less than a month of research has produced results?

“How much does it cost?”

Zheng Fa asked.

“…No cost.”

"?"

"Didn't you draw that man's blood before? I asked you to get some and tested it with his blood."

“…”

“Great!”

Zheng Fa looked towards the room where the man was lying, and fell into deep thought: "Is it just his blood?"

"Anyway, the blood of our Jiushan Sect is not good." Li Nuo said affirmatively.

"Have you tried this too?" Zheng Fa couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"When we couldn't afford the blood of spirit beasts, my father and I used our own blood."

Zheng Fa could not help but remain silent, and he had a guess in his mind.

If there is any difference between the blood of these demon sect members and the blood of the Nine Mountains Sect monks, it is the talismans in the blood.

"Junior brother, the demons of the Demon Cult must be killed by everyone!" Li Nuo said excitedly: "Their blood is worthless!"

“…”

Yes.

Compared to spirit beasts, using the blood of demon sect disciples to make talismans does have many benefits.

Spiritual beasts need to be carefully raised and are very delicate - some sects in the Xuanwei Realm are famous for raising spiritual beasts.

The disciples of the Demon Sect are very sensible. Not only can they eat and sleep by themselves, they also take the initiative to practice.

In the past, when the immortal sects and the demon sects fought, the disciples of the demon sects were always killed as the reward - fighting was high-risk and had low benefits.

Now... well, I can only say that it is a trend that is conducive to slaying demons and eliminating evil!

Thinking of this, Zheng Fa understood Li Nuo's excitement.

There's only one problem...

"Master, if we cut off the spiritual plants that they have been nurturing for many years, will they retaliate?"

In the thatched cottage of the headmaster, Zheng Fa asked his master.

"...Who?" The head of the sect thought for a while and suddenly said, "You harmed your uncle Pang's thousand-year-old purple bamboo? That's not right. He treasures this thing. If the bamboo is not dead, you should return it to your uncle."

"...No, they are from the Demon Sect."

"Demon Sect? Why are you being polite to them? They are trying to sneak into my Jiushan Sect and cause chaos!" The head of the sect patted his chest and said loudly, "The immortals and the demons cannot coexist. There is no need to talk about morality. If something goes wrong, you still have me as your master. I have killed people from the Demon Sect before!"

"That's fine..."

Feeling that his master was protecting him, Zheng Fa looked very excited.

"Tell me, whose spiritual plant are you going to cut?"

"No one else, it's the Demon Ancestor of the Great Freedom Demon Cult."

The head of the sect was silent for a while, then said, "How about I pluck out your uncle Pang's thousand-year-old purple bamboo and give it to you?"

“…”

"I said that all my disciples are debts! Each one is more troublesome than the other!"
