"Will my Junmo Sword be up to the task?" Xiao Yuhan asked.
Nangong Ling'er rolled her eyes at him. "Senior brother, do you even consider the Junmo Sword to be a celestial treasure? If you weren't using it, it would probably be considered a sword of a demonic sect member, right?"
"Whose magic weapon do we have here that could work?"
After a moment's thought, Nangong Ling'er looked at Ai Yue not far away and said, "Junior Nephew Ai Yue, unleash your Su Yue Liu Tian."
Ai Yue did as instructed immediately.
At this moment, Nangong Ling'er stepped forward, cut her finger, and dripped blood onto Suyue Liutian. Suddenly, the pure white immortal sword emitted a faint red light.
"Aiyue, release the sword!"
Ai Yue did as instructed, releasing the immortal sword Su Yue Liu Tian from her hand. As soon as the flying sword left her hand, it sped off in one direction, and the group quickly gave chase.
"Junior sister, was that a demonic technique you used just now?" Xiao Yuhan asked Nangong Ling'er beside him as he chased after the immortal sword.
"It's just basic ghost magic, enough to help us find the most sinister thing in this place. Let's go, let's find the main medium of this incident first!"
Xiao Yuhan, Nangong Ling'er, and Ai Yue chased after Su Yue Liutian together, but the more they chased, the more Xiao Yuhan felt something was wrong. It wasn't until Su Yue Liutian stopped in a courtyard within the Xuehan Blade Sect that Xiao Yuhan realized what was happening.
Isn't this the courtyard I came to investigate before? Xiao Yuhan was increasingly puzzled, but at this moment they were stopped by the guards at the gate. This time Xiao Yuhan didn't care about that and immediately prepared to break in. These guards were no match for Xiao Yuhan at all.
The three of them continued to follow Su Yue Liutian. After entering the courtyard, the immortal sword stopped above the ancient well in the courtyard. Ai Yue caught Su Yue Liutian, and Xiao Yuhan and Nangong Ling'er exchanged a glance and looked at the ancient well together.
Nangong Ling'er frowned deeply, "There's something down there!"
After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go into the water, but Xiao Yuhan stopped her, "I'll do it. How can I let you do something like this, Junior Sister?"
With that, Xiao Yuhan jumped directly into the well, bracing himself against the well wall with his hands and feet, and slowly descended. The well was not completely dry, but it was very deep. After a long time, Xiao Yuhan used the lightning of his thunder magic to see the bottom of the well.
The well walls were covered with talismans, and the water was only ankle-deep. The stench that could not be dissipated made Xiao Yuhan feel uncomfortable. After observing for a long time, he noticed a small iron box and discovered that the yin energy was coming from this object. He immediately reached out, grabbed it, and jumped out of the ancient well.
When the iron box was placed in the courtyard, Nangong Ling'er immediately covered her mouth and nose; the stench was indeed unpleasant.
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan said, "We found this thing down below, but we don't know what it is."
"This is an infant coffin, something's not right... Even if a child's corpse is full of resentment, it shouldn't be able to create a large array to command ghosts. There's something wrong with this thing, senior brother, open the coffin!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan did not hesitate and directly opened the iron coffin. Immediately, the stench of the corpse became even stronger, and Xiao Yuhan unconsciously took two steps back.
Inside the iron coffin was the shrunken corpse of an adult woman, her body withered and it was unclear how long she had been dead. However, Xiao Yuhan noticed that the woman's eyes had been gouged out, and there were traces of molten copper poured into her ears. Her expression immediately changed. "Junior sister, I know. This is the ghost I told you about the other day. Although its appearance is unrecognizable, I'm sure it's true."
Nangong Ling'er frowned, a hint of fear flashing in her eyes. "What kind of deep-seated hatred must this be? The Soul-Shattering Array combined with the copper jar corpse, and it was even thrown into a dark place like an ancient well. It seems the murderer wanted to refine this person's soul into an evil object. Today's horde of ghosts attacking this place is because of this object."
"How did you make that judgment, Junior Sister?" Xiao Yuhan asked, puzzled.
“I just discovered traces of demonic techniques near the well.”
