The tree was thick, and its hollow interior was quite spacious.
Qin Yun's flesh and blood had dried up. His body was shriveled like a corpse that had been dried up by the wind. He lay at the old woman's feet.
On the old woman's face, there were many strange runes drawn with colored ink. They looked like earthworms or some kind of poisonous insects. They were multicolored and made one feel intimidated.
Any cultivator on the Tranquil Continent would be able to tell at a glance that the old woman was from the Guifu School.
Only the Guifu School would carve such talisman symbols on different parts of the body.
"Granny Chou, I was attacked and captured by the Guifu School on my way back to the country. I've been imprisoned here ever since. I've never had any contact with Yu Yuan." Qin Yun's Yin Spirit, which was in the form of an old Confucian scholar, looked old and feeble. He replied weakly, "I really don't know where he is."
Qin Yun hated and feared Chou Wan at the same time.
He had always known that Chou Wan had been in the Qian Xuan Continent for a long time. She was responsible for selecting suitable disciples for the Ghost Talisman Sect and guiding them to the Ghost Talisman Sect to cultivate.
The Guifu School was located in the northern part of the Tranquil Continent. Although it was weaker than the Red Devil School and the Blood God School, it was still on the same level.
Chou Wan, who was also a late Yin Spirit, had joined forces with two other elders of the Guifu School to severely injure and capture him. They had forced his Yin Spirit out of his body and imprisoned it with a special artifact. They had wanted to interrogate him about what had happened in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moons.
Somehow, the Guifu School had learned that there was an ancient grand spell formation in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moons, which was controlled by a young man from Dark Moon City.
The young man's name was Yu Yuan, and he seemed to be very close to Qin Yun.
It was because of this that Qin Yun suffered an unexpected calamity. After being ambushed, he was captured alive.
The Seven Divine Sects were a powerful force in the Scarlet Sun Empire, but they couldn't compare to the Guifu School on the Tranquil Continent.
The Guifu School had always been unruly. Just like the Blood God, it had a bad reputation.
Chou Wan did not care about Qin Yun's identity and did not care about the Scarlet Sun Empire's attitude. Therefore, when she made her move, she did not hold back at all.
"Hehe, Qin Yun, oh Qin Yun. The four Azure Sun Arrows that you cultivated with your life have already betrayed you. Yet, you still insist on being stubborn?"
Qiu Wan laughed strangely. She stretched out her five fingers, which were like chicken claws, and gently placed them on one of the Greensun Arrows. She said, "Yu Yuan is just a kid in the Dark Moon City. I don't know what kind of luck he has. He is neither your relative nor your friend. Why do you want to protect him? Besides, these four Blue-Sun Arrows of yours were all tampered with by him. You are the Sect Leader of a sect, how could you be humiliated like this? "
As she spoke, her five chicken claw-like fingers suddenly tightened.
All of a sudden, the Bluesun Arrow in her hand was set ablaze by the white flames.
Strange, twisting magical symbols that looked like locusts, spiders, vipers, and lizards all shot towards the Bluesun Arrow.
"Let me help you," Qiu Wan said with a snort.
As the Bluesun Arrow burned, wisps of smoke rose from the top of Qin Yun's illusory head.
Qin Yun let out a low, mournful cry.
…
Meanwhile …
Yu Yuan, who was standing at the entrance of the forbidden land of the Falling Moons and the Scarlet Sun Empire, shuddered violently as his face twisted.
He shrewdly sensed that a wisp of his soul awareness seemed to be burning in the direction of the Scarlet Sun Empire.
He felt a stabbing pain between his eyebrows.
In the next moment, he seemed to see lizards, vipers, spiders, scorpions, locusts, and other living creatures pouncing on him, tearing at him with their fangs.
Even though those creatures were clearly illusory, they exuded a terrifying aura that seemed to be able to devour souls.
The stabbing pain between his eyebrows suddenly intensified. In the next moment, his thoughts were thrown into disarray, as if he had been bewitched or possessed.
"The Guifu School!"
He bit his tongue hard and forced himself to calm down with a different kind of pain.
In his previous life, he had spent most of his time on the Tranquil Continent, so he was very familiar with the Guifu School.
The Guifu School, which had bred all kinds of poisonous insects, refined their souls, and refined them into talismans, had worked closely with him when he had decided to refine poisonous pills.
The Guifu School had secretly provided him with a large number of precious poisonous insects that were rarely seen in the world.
Meanwhile, he had refined a large number of medicinal pills for the Ghost Seal Sect's poisonous insects, which could help them evolve and become even more deadly.
The Guifu School, which was located on the Tranquil Continent, was relatively weak to begin with. It couldn't be compared to the Red Devil School or the Blood God.
It was even harder to compare it to the Goblin Temple or the Devil's Palace.
His existence and the pills he had refined had greatly improved the strength of the Guifu School, allowing the Guifu School's strength to soar in a short period of time.
The reason why the Guifu School could be called a sect on the same level as the Red Devil School and the Blood God was because of him.
"I really shot myself in the foot. I didn't expect that the Guifu School of this life would dare to make a move on me!"
Sensing that the talisman symbols in her mind had turned into lifelike poisonous insects and cast on her with the Ghost Talisman Sect's Dark Ghost Spell, she was filled with anger. "Could it be that the sectmaster of the seven divine sects secretly betrayed me?"
With this thought in mind, he decided to use his killing intent to trigger the changes in Qingyang Town's soul and cause the four Qingyang Arrows to explode.
In this way, even if Qin Yun didn't die, he would be seriously injured.
The medium of the Ghost Talisman Sect's Dark Ghost Secret Curse was one of the four Azure Sun Arrows. It relied on the connection between one's consciousness and one's own existence within the arrow.
As long as the Qingyang Arrow exploded, his consciousness would disappear and the Dark Ghost Curse would be broken.
However, just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly saw another scene.
Qin Yun's Yin Spirit was inside a tree hole. His shriveled body was casually thrown on the ground.
The Yin Spirit in the form of an old scholar was melting. It was clear that his soul was continuously damaged by the Qingyang Arrow.
In an instant, he understood that Qin Yun was also a victim.
Qin Yun didn't betray him. He was only captured alive by the Guifu School's disciples with the help of one of the Qingyang Arrows and the Dark Ghost Curse.
"Sect Master Qin, I'm sorry."
With a low cry in his heart, Yu Yuan sat down at the entrance of the forbidden area.
The souls of the poisonous insects continued to wreak havoc in the depths of his mind.
Calming his mind, Yu Yuan's Caelum Soul suddenly released a sorrowful mood.
Under the sorrowful mood, his Caelum Soul seemed to have transformed into a pocket-sized person.
This pocket-sized person wasn't a Yang Spirit and could never leave his soul. It was only a small soul, and couldn't materialize like a Yang Spirit.
However, because this pocket-sized person had been bestowed with wisps of pure soul power in the Soul Transforming Pool, it had also been tainted with a fierce sword intent.
FIZZ!
The pocket-sized person seemed to have transformed into a small sharp sword.
The small sword was dazzling, and could only appear in his sea of awareness.
All of a sudden, the small, resplendent sword slashed towards the numerous poisonous insects that had appeared in his sea of awareness.
To be exact, it slashed at the Dark Ghost Talismans in the form of poisonous insects.
"Ahhh!"
Thousands of kilometers away, Chou Wan of the Guifu School suddenly wailed like a ghost and howled like a wolf.
