Chen Sui took out the Five Ghosts Moving Talisman from his mustard bracelet.
In the original world, the Five Ghosts Moving Talisman was generally used to move the luck and wealth of the other party. It was a very insidious talisman, but Chen Sui made some adjustments based on it. She could instruct the Five Ghosts to move anything from the other party.
So after injecting spiritual power, Chen Sui gave the order to move the jade token from Zhou Yixing to Wu Gui. She could see that Zhou Yixing would never give up, so he would definitely not crush the jade token at the first moment.
Zhou Yixing tried desperately to break free from the thing wrapped around his legs, but for some reason the more he struggled, the tighter the restraint became.
Damn, the Dragon Scale Blood Tree is indeed evil.
When he found that no matter what he did, it was useless, Zhou Yixing desperately wanted to take his jade token and no longer cared about his face. After all, life was a big deal. When he got out, he would definitely tell others about Li Ze, the guy who stood by and watched.
But no matter how hard he searched, he still couldn't feel the jade token. Zhou Yixing's expression froze. He suddenly lowered his head. No matter how hard he searched for the mustard seed bracelet with his spiritual sense, he couldn't even feel the shadow of the jade token.
The next second, he raised his head suddenly, and a sharp sword touched his brow.
He screamed immediately, but as soon as he opened his mouth, water rushed into it. He could only close his mouth tightly, his pupils shrinking as he looked at the sword emitting yellow light that could take his life at any time.
"Next, I'll ask you a question, and you'll nod or shake your head. If you try to resist, you'll die. If you can, just nod."
The girl's voice sounded in Zhou Yixing's ears like a ghost, and Zhou Yixing's body began to tremble. He nodded very stiffly. Zhou Yixing could feel the murderous intent that could not be described in words. This girl said that she would let him die and she would really let him die.
"Have you practiced any techniques other than those given to you by the Tai Chi religion?"
Zhou Yixing was stunned, but he quickly reacted. He hesitated for just a few seconds and then shook his head.
"Is that so? Then please die."
Zhou Yixing opened his eyes wide, and at the moment of his death he didn't understand why the girl was so decisive in judging that he was lying.
Chen Sui took back Cang Wu with an expressionless face, but Cang Wu placed something in her palm. She looked at it and saw that it was a small colorful stone. Chen Sui asked curiously, "What is this?"
"People who have become puppets will have this thing between their eyebrows. If it is not taken out, the puppet will turn into a walking corpse after death." Cangwu said in a light tone, as if he really disliked this thing.
"What is a puppet?" Chen Sui asked. "Does it refer to someone who practices that evil technique?"
"Well, there are differences in evil magic. After all, there are demons who practice evil magic. However, the evil magic of puppets comes at the cost of burning their own lifespan in exchange for a short period of time. It seems to be a win-win situation, but in fact it is full of loopholes." Qingshuang's voice sounded in Shen Sui's mind.
Chen Sui stared at Zhou Yixing's body as it slowly fell to the bottom of the lake, then was bound by the red stripes of the Dragon Scale Blood Tree. She couldn't help but wonder, "Can it be exchanged for a short-term improvement?"
"You know that when a cultivator's cultivation reaches a higher level, his life span will increase, right? So when a cultivator sees the puppet's evil method, he will have a misunderstanding, that is, this method can help him improve his cultivation, and if his cultivation level increases, his life span will increase," Cangwu took over Qingshuang's words.
"But the cultivator would never have thought that after the puppet's evil magic allowed him to improve for a short period of time, it would create a bottleneck that the cultivator could never overcome. Because of this bottleneck, the cultivator would gradually lose his mind."
"But didn't you say before that only death can turn people into zombies?" Shen Sui caught the key point in the words.
Cangwu smiled bitterly: "This is the difference between the evil magic of the puppets and the evil magic of the demons. The evil magic of the demons will not cause any harm to the cultivators after they encounter a bottleneck, but the evil magic of the puppets will cause the cultivators to develop inner demons because they cannot break the bottleneck no matter what. This inner demon will tempt the cultivator to kill people and fill the bottleneck that it can never fill with human blood."
Chen Sui took a deep breath and said, "Now that you've said it, this puppet is even more sinister than the demons."
Cangwu said solemnly, "Why else do you think we reacted so strongly?"
"So, your countless former sword masters specialized in dealing with puppets?" Chen Sui blinked and looked in the direction of the dragon-scale blood tree. Shen Xinglan hadn't finished yet, so she had plenty of time to chat with her sword spirits.
"No, actually I don't know where this puppet came from. Maybe it sensed that this person used evil puppetry," Cangwu denied it outright. "Qingshuang, Taowu, where are you?"
"Me too," Qing Shuang said, her voice full of confusion. "It's strange. My former sword masters also slew demons and monsters for many years, but this puppet thing has only just entered my consciousness."
"Then after we get back, I'll tell the sect leader about this?" Chen Sui obviously realized that the seriousness of the matter seemed beyond her ability to handle it alone.
"You can give it a try. Just now, a few of us sword spirits tested the evil puppet technique together. It seems to have some kind of restriction. Apart from those who practice it, you are the only one who knows of its existence." Taowu, who had been silent until now, suddenly launched into a bombshell. "And if you tell others, they will just think you are crazy."
Shen Sui was shocked: "Then it's useless."
Taowu: “Heh.”
No wonder Taowu had been silent before. Chen Sui felt inexplicably guilty. He was probably also speechless about this situation.
Only letting a person who has just reached the great perfection of Qi training know about this matter that is enough to subvert the entire world of immortal cultivation is undoubtedly like a drop of water now, which cannot affect this lake in any way.
"Then all I can do is kill them all I see," Chen Sui whispered to his sword spirits. Although the other sword spirits didn't speak, Chen Sui could clearly sense that their thoughts were no different from Taowu's. "However, I was able to kill this Taiji Sect member this time thanks to the Dragon Scale Blood Tree. After all, how could I, a Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivator, fight against a Golden Core cultivator..."
"Huh? Cangwu, look at the roots of the Dragon Scale Blood Tree, is there something flashing?" Chen Sui stared closely at the place she suddenly discovered, fearing that it was an illusion.
Cangwu floated out of her mind in the form of a yellow ball of light and landed on her shoulder: "Let me take a look, but I beg you, please don't treat me like a mosquito, understand?"
Shen Sui: “Haha.”
Cangwu: “?”
