Chapter 405 Shadow Puppet



The formation flags were refined very quickly, but it took quite a while to refine the talismans. A strong man at the level of the Golden Light Cave Master could not be killed by hundreds of talismans.

Fortunately, Chen Luo was not in a hurry. He drew the talisman while swallowing the pills to practice. He had also taken the "Blood Infant Pill" that Taixu Patriarch Gu He had asked him to refine. His cultivation level was greatly improved. He almost couldn't suppress it and attracted the Nascent Soul Tribulation. Fortunately, at the last moment, he called on Brother Changqing's brain and suppressed his restless cultivation level again.

“The success rate is currently only 45% at most.”

Breaking through three paths at the same time was more difficult than expected. If he hadn't suppressed his cultivation just now, he would have probably broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm. But after the breakthrough, the main path would become one main twice, and if he was unlucky, the other two paths would be "washed away" by the heavenly tribulation. Chen Luo didn't want this "Nascent Soul Realm" at all. How could the path that Brother Changqing disliked be a good path?

"Junior brother! Something happened."

A voice came from outside the secret room.

It’s Senior Sister Yu Junyao.

"Come in."

Chen Luo waved his sleeves, put away the dragon blood pill furnace and the makeshift things next to it, and said towards the door.

Hearing the voice, Yu Junyao immediately pushed the door open and walked in.

"Elder Dugu was seriously injured, his foundation was destroyed, and his blood pills dried up. When the outer disciples went down the mountain to complete a mission, they found him on the crooked tree at the mountain pass and rescued him back up the mountain. His life is now saved, but his cultivation has been damaged. Elder Dugu is old and has no cultivation to support him. I am afraid he will not survive this disaster."

Dugu Jian is helping Chen Luo.

Everyone in Qionghua Sect knew about this. Dugu Jian was seriously injured this time because it was a test from the enemy. There were countless eyes staring at Chen Luo secretly, wanting to see how he would respond.

"Where are the people?"

"It's on our Taixu Peak. I'll have someone guarding the side." Yu Junyao did not send anyone to other main peaks.

Chen Luo is now the eldest senior brother of the Qionghua Sect, with power equivalent to that of the acting sect leader, but the place he can truly feel at ease with is Taixu Peak.

"I'll go and take a look."

Chen Luo could only give up his plan to go out and look for Ning Chenye. The enemy's speed of attack was faster than he expected, and it was completely out of his control.

It is unethical to attack subordinates by surprise!

Taixu Peak Pharmacy.

This is the area where the alchemists on Taixu Peak live. When the wounded are rescued, they will stay here temporarily. Dugu Jian was lying on the wooden bed, his face was as pale as gold paper. His external injuries had recovered, but the problem was his internal body.

“Ahem.”

Seeing Chen Luo coming in, Elder Dugu opened his eyes. He opened his mouth to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he coughed a series of times. His face became paler and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. Elder Dugu's spiritual power was in chaos, and his red pill was damaged. There were dense cracks on it, like a glass ball that could break at any time.

"Have you found the inn?"

Chen Luo looked at Elder Dugu and asked.

"Yes, cough."

Dugu Jian uttered a word with difficulty.

Chen Luo raised his hand, and a ray of spiritual power flew out from his palm. The brains in the external brain that were proficient in medicine and alchemy became active, and dozens of brains controlled this spiritual power to enter Dugu Jian's body, washing away his injuries bit by bit, and many congestion points were repaired.

Although there is no way to repair Elder Dugu's red dan, it is still possible to alleviate his injuries.

After withdrawing his hand, Dugu Jian on the bed looked much better.

"It's that scholar."

After coughing a few more times, Elder Dugu's breath slowly subsided and his face became much redder.

"Two days ago, two inner disciples discovered that strange inn in the Rebirth Valley. I rushed over as soon as I knew about it and sent someone to inform the sect."

Dugu Jian was very fast. When he rushed over, the two inner disciples were still guarding outside the inn.

When we first arrived, everything was normal.

But after nightfall, the surrounding scene suddenly changed. The scholar who looked normal a second ago suddenly went crazy after hearing a woman's voice. He killed two Qionghua Sect disciples in an incredible way, and Elder Dugu almost died. If it weren't for the last woman who appeared, Dugu Jian would probably have died in the Valley of Rebirth.

Afterwards, Dugu Jian used sword escape to escape from the Valley of Rebirth.

He thought that was the end of it, but when he was at the entrance of the canyon, he met a strange man who was shrouded in shadows. The strange man just looked at him, and then he fainted. When he woke up, he was hung on a tree, and then he was rescued.

"A dark figure?"

Chen Luo frowned.

He thought of the news Ning Chenye had sent him. He didn't know whether Elder Dugu and his men had discovered the inn first, or whether Ning Chenye had been looking for him. The dark figure that appeared behind him was most likely someone from the Shadow Eater Sect. The enemy came faster than he expected, and they didn't take the lower realm passage where the Qionghua Sect had spies.

This kind of long-standing enemy is troublesome. You never know how many escape routes they have left for themselves.

"He just glanced at you and then you passed out?"

Chen Luo asked.

"It seems so."

Elder Dugu recalled it, feeling a little uncertain. He had just escaped from Ning Chenye and was in very bad condition after performing the sword escape.

"have a good rest."

Chen Luo reached out and patted Elder Dugu on the shoulder, then stood up and walked out.

Yu Junyao was confused. She didn't know what clues her junior brother had found, so she followed him out. Dugu Jian sat alone in the pharmacy. The color on his face faded a little bit, his expression was a little cold, and a black aura flashed in his eyes.

"Until Elder Dugu recovers from his injury, no one else should come and disturb him."

At the door, Chen Luo looked back.

"Why?"

Yu Junyao looked at Chen Luo in confusion, not understanding why he made such a decision. Chen Luo did not explain, and his attention fell on the old fox's brain.

"Shadow Puppet, the person is already dead."

This was the feedback that the old fox's brain gave Chen Luo after he entered the room. He had used his spiritual power to treat Elder Dugu before, and he was also trying to find out his condition. The result was very strange. He did not feel anything abnormal after the spiritual power entered his body. In his perception, Elder Dugu was still alive, but was seriously injured.

This is a magical power that is beyond the knowledge of the immortal cultivation world in the Tiannan Region.

Fortunately, Chen Luo has his own "own people" who can recognize this kind of hidden means.

"Be careful."

After withdrawing his perception, Chen Luo passed on the information he knew to Yu Junyao through telepathy.

Yu Junyao's expression froze, and then she subconsciously looked back.

Shadow puppet?

What is that thing.

Back in the training room, Chen Luo fell silent again. Previously, he only counted Ning Chenye, so the amount of talisman paper he prepared was inevitably a little less, and there were not enough magic tools and elixirs. Now there was an additional enemy who was suspected to be from the Shadow Eater Sect, so Chen Luo felt that the amount he prepared should be increased a little.

For example, prepare ten more.

What if the enemies of the Shadow Eater Sect have accomplices or other friends? It's better to prepare more, just according to the amount of ten Golden Light Cave Masters. If it weren't for the limited supplies of the Qionghua Sect, Chen Luo would have wanted to prepare a hundred copies.

Rebirth Valley.

Dark woods, gray-brown leaves, and pale white dust floating in the air formed a haze-like fog. If you look closely, you will find that these tiny "hazes" are not dust, but tiny poisonous insects one after another.

The wooden inn stands quietly in the old forest.

Unlike the previous opening, the inn was now completely dark, the lanterns at the door were off, the plaque on it was blank, and the drinkers inside did not know where they had gone. A red lacquered wooden table was placed at the door of the inn, and Ning Chenye, wearing a red groom's suit, sat there drinking alone.

A shadow appeared in the fog.

The figure slowly approached. This shadow was very strange. It seemed as if it was teleporting while walking. Its outline became clearer with every step. After a few steps, it had arrived at the door of the inn.

"Sorry, the inn is closed."

Ning Chenye put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at the strange man in front of him.

This was a shadow clad in darkness, his body undulating like ink, and no trace of living human presence could be detected from his body.

"I'm looking for someone."

Shadow spoke, his voice was muffled, as if he had no nose.

"We don't have this kind of business."

Shadow paused for a moment, then ignored him and walked into the inn.

Ning Chenye suddenly made a move, and the figure who was sitting next to the wooden table a second ago faded away little by little. When he appeared again, his hand was already on the shadow's shoulder.

The dark ink flowed down his palm, as if eroding his body. After noticing this, the smile on Ning Chenye's face faded.

"My wife is sleeping. If you go in and wake her up, I will eat you."

The ink on Shadow's body began to fluctuate.

"You are not the one the elder is looking for."

Shadow's voice was calm, as if he was narrating a trivial matter.

The ink on his face faded away little by little, revealing the face underneath.

An ordinary young man with a plain appearance, the kind that no one would even look at if he were thrown into a crowd of people. If Chen Luo were here, he would be able to tell at a glance that the owner of this head was none other than Han Lin, the casual cultivator he had killed not long ago.

"Who is the elder?"

After repelling the ink power, Ning Chenye withdrew his hand. He felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of him. This guy was probably not a living person. The real problem was the person who controlled the shadow.

"Elder Lu Ying, the chief elder of the Shadow Eater Sect."

Shadow Eater Gate?

Ning Chenye recalled a little bit, but there was no such sect in his limited memory.

"The elder is about to descend to the lower world. We must find the target before he comes down, otherwise the elder will be unhappy."

Shadow's voice remained the same as before.

It is like a puppet, only following the orders of its master.

"So they are friends from the upper realm."

Ning Chenye grinned, and dark green scales appeared on his face. The aura of the upper world monster limbs that he absorbed dissipated. (End of this chapter)
