"Thank you for your help, Master!"
"There's no rush, so please accept this little bit of wine and snacks, sir!"
After saying that, the master gestured for the black dog immortal to look at the sandalwood incense.
The black dog-like immortal's eyes flickered, and then he spoke:
"Since you're so sincere, then I won't stand on ceremony."
The Black Dog Immortal walked to the sandalwood incense and took a long sniff.
My left eye could clearly see the misty scent of sandalwood, which drifted into the nose of the black dog, Di Xian.
The black dog looked completely satisfied; it seemed the sandalwood he bought suited his taste perfectly.
A moment later, the Black Dog Immortal, having eaten and drunk his fill, addressed the crowd:
"Let me smell it."
Upon hearing this, the master quickly took the bowl of glutinous rice from the side and placed it in front of the black dog earth immortal:
"Master, this is the aura of the murderer. Please help me identify it."
"This humble Taoist priest is of limited knowledge and cannot recognize what is causing this disturbance."
Black Dog Earth Immortal nodded, raised his nose, and smelled the glutinous rice in the bowl.
After a short while, the Black Dog Immortal said, "Hehe, so this is what it is. It's normal that you couldn't recognize it."
Upon hearing this, the master immediately perked up:
"Oh, great immortal, do you recognize this as some kind of evil spirit?"
Black Dog Earth Immortal snorted coldly: "Hmph, you can recognize such a foul smell right away."
"It was the corpse demon who did it."
The master was somewhat surprised and asked with a frown:
"Oh, it's actually a corpse demon?"
"No wonder, I couldn't recognize the traces it left behind."
"Logically speaking, this thing shouldn't exist in this world."
Then the master quickly cupped his hands in greeting:
"Thank you, Great Immortal, for resolving my doubts!"
"Please lead us to find this corpse demon."
"This kind of monstrous thing is harmful and brings no benefit whatsoever if it remains in the human world!"
I couldn't help but ask, somewhat curiously, "What is a corpse demon? Is it very powerful?"
Before my master could answer, the Black Dog Immortal turned to look at me and said, "Oh, why is there a little girl here?"
The master explained from the side:
“Great Immortal, this is a disciple I recently accepted. I know him very little, so please excuse my ignorance.”
Seeing that my master was being so polite, I naturally couldn't embarrass him:
"Great Immortal, please accept the Taoist greetings from your disciple."
I never imagined in my life that I would bow to a dog. If word got out, people would probably laugh me to death.
But since his master was so polite to them, and he needed their help, he naturally couldn't afford to offend them.
The black dog-like immortal nodded in satisfaction, and then began to tell me:
"There are two kinds of corpse demons. One kind is a demon that turns into a corpse after it dies. It is resurrected by people using yin energy and continues its life in a walking corpse state. It can walk between the yin and yang worlds."
"The other way is for the corpse to absorb demonic energy and be resurrected."
"If it's an ordinary corpse, it's fine. But if it's a zombie, especially a zombie that has gained some power, and it absorbs demonic energy, it might become an incorruptible body."
"They are said to be indestructible, impervious to swords and spears, and immune to water and fire. They can leap like the wind and even use sorcery. They are extremely difficult to deal with!"
So there really are things like this in the world!
"Then how do we deal with something like this?"
"It sounds like it's almost unsolvable!" I replied in disbelief.
But the Black Dog Immortal just smiled:
"Hehe, little girl, you underestimate the Taoists."
“Your Taoist masters are enough to be called half-immortals.”
"Don't even mention the Undying Bone, even a Flying Zombie like Jiang Chen wouldn't dare say he's invincible in this world, hahahaha!"
Hearing Black Dog Immortal say this, I was deeply shocked!
So, there are still highly accomplished people in Taoism?
I've heard that the advisor supposedly killed a flying zombie, but I don't know if it's true.
If this is true, then the advisor could be considered a Taoist figure of the Mount Tai level!
The Black Dog Immortal then said coldly, "Alright, follow me. I have a feeling that this thing hasn't reached the point of being unable to dissolve bones yet."
"And even if it's an incorruptible bone, I think you have a way to deal with it."
After speaking, he glanced at his master.
The master replied modestly, "If we give it our all, we should be able to fight it."
"Alright, alright, I suppose your strength is even greater than mine."
"The aura you exuded when you heard about the Undying Bone was enough to prove your profound skill."
"Right now, getting rid of this scourge is the most important thing!"
The master didn't speak, but quietly followed the black dog immortal.
Everyone used the Swiftness Talisman; there was no other way. Without it, they simply couldn't catch up with the Black Dog Immortal.
As they searched, they arrived at the heart of a deep mountain forest.
"Slow down your breathing, this should be it," Black Goji Earth Immortal reminded the group.
All three of them slowed down.
Master took out three Ghost Concealment Talismans from his pocket and stuck one on himself, Wu Shi, and me.
Presumably, this was to prevent the other party from detecting our presence.
The group slowly walked in and surprisingly discovered an open tomb in the woods.
The group exchanged glances, hesitant about whether to go in.
Places like this are easy to ambush.
Once everyone is trapped inside the tomb, they may never be able to get out.
Seeing that we hadn't moved, the black dog immortal guessed what we were worried about.
The master took out his phone and made a call to his wife.
The call was answered quickly.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Qianxue, we are investigating a case. The culprit is very likely a corpse demon."
"You know that corpse demons are very difficult to form naturally."
"We've located a tomb. I'll send you the location."
“If I don’t call you back in an hour, you and your senior brother should come over with your men. We might get trapped then.”
The master told his wife about the situation here.
The master's wife didn't say much, only replying, "Okay, I understand. Remember to be careful and protect Xiaoxi and Wu Shi."
After hanging up the phone, the master resolutely walked towards the tomb.
Wu Shi and I quickly followed.
Black Goji Earth Immortal glanced at me and Wu Shi, then said to his master:
"Hey, are you sure you can trust bringing your female disciple in here?"
After listening, my master glanced at me.
I know my master is worried, but I don't want to give up this opportunity.
With a firm gaze, I nodded to my master.
My master didn't speak, but he must have understood what I meant, and continued walking towards the tomb.
As they walked, he said, "This girl is no ordinary person. She recently came with me to the zombie battlefield on the southern border."
"She's smart and has her own opinions. I can't protect her forever. I just hope that after I'm gone, she can take care of herself!"
