"Wei Ge. Most people call me Brother." Zhou Wen extended his hand and shook Xiao Si's hand.
Xiao Si secretly memorized the name, but he naturally wouldn't call him Brother. He only waited to return and investigate Wei Ge's origins.
In an office in the Imperial Capital's Special Inspector Bureau headquarters, Wei Ge, who was drinking tea, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and muttered to himself, "Who's thinking of me?"
"Cut it out. Brother-in-law, aren't you going to the Great Wall? Let's go quickly. "Wang Chan pulled Zhou Wen towards the staircase at the entrance of the Great Wall.
Zhou Wen had been searching outside the Great Wall for a long time, but he couldn't find the tiny palm symbol. However, he didn't give up and wanted to search the Great Wall.
After all, dimensional creatures like Undying Battle Souls had very rare characteristics. Such dimensional creatures might be of great use.
Wang Chan was still somewhat uneasy, afraid that her Goddess of Misfortune would harm Zhou Wen.
Xiao Si walked at the back with a smile on his face, but he was sneering inwardly. Do you think you'll really be safe in a place like the Great Wall? You're too naive.
Zhou Wen hadn't climbed the Great Wall yesterday and had only searched outside, so he hadn't seen Undying Battle Souls. After climbing the Great Wall, he finally knew what kind of existence Battle Souls were.
On top of the ancient city walls, armored soldiers wandered aimlessly, as if they had no souls.
Their attire looked very ancient, and these soldiers were like virtual projections. Their bodies were transparent. Zhou Wen reached out to grab the arm of an Undying Battle Soul, but his palm passed through the Battle Soul's body as though the Battle Soul was only an illusion and not a real creature.
Zhou Wen condensed his Essence Energy and attempted to attack the Undying Battle Souls, but it was useless. All sorts of Essence Energy Skills passed through the Undying Battle Souls' bodies, unable to affect them at all.
An Undying Battle Soul wandered over and passed through Zhou Wen and company as it continued wandering forward.
These Undying Battle Souls are really interesting. They're a little similar to Spirit Bride, but they seem a little different. Zhou Wen sized up the Undying Battle Soul with interest.
It was clearly Wang Chan's first time seeing an Undying Battle Soul. She was clearly very curious as she reached out to grab it, but it was naturally futile.
"In the past, I've only heard that the Immortal Battle Soul was very magical. Today, I've finally seen it for myself." Wang Chan was very happy. This was because the Undying Battle Soul couldn't harm anyone. There was no need to worry that Zhou Wen would be affected by her bad luck.
Xiao Si looked at the Undying Battle Souls with an undetectable glint in his eyes.
Zhou Wen searched for the tiny palm symbol along the way, but Wang Chan only treated it as a tourist. However, the scenery of the Great Wall was just too monotonous. Apart from the wall, there were only Undying Battle Souls.
After watching for a long time, he felt a little bored.
As he was walking, he suddenly saw black smoke rising in front of him.
Looking in the direction where the black smoke was rising, he saw that the place where the smoke was coming from was the beacon tower.
The so-called beacon tower was actually a place where signals were transmitted in ancient times.
In ancient times, there were no modern signal stations, nor were there any radio equipment or satellites to transmit signals over long distances. They could only rely on this method of burning smoke to let people in the distance see the signal.
Therefore, there would be a beacon tower built at regular intervals on the Great Wall to quickly transmit information.
This was also the main purpose of the Great Wall. Although the Great Wall was tall and majestic, its main purpose wasn't for combat. Apart from the beacon tower's function of transmitting information, the Great Wall's greatest purpose was to block trade and information transmission.
However, in modern times, the Great Wall was basically useless. After the dimensional storms, very few humans climbed the Great Wall, much less ignite a beacon.
Now, smoke suddenly rose from the beacon tower on the Great Wall. It made Wang Chan's heart skip a beat as she felt that something was amiss.
Smoke rose into the sky from the nearby beacon tower. From afar, it looked like a black tornado rushing into the sky.
What was even stranger was that the soulless Battle Souls seemed to wake up all of a sudden. Their eyes glowed red as they swarmed towards the beacon tower.
"Brother-in-law, something doesn't seem right. Let's leave quickly." Wang Chan pulled Zhou Wen and wanted to leave the Great Wall. She was really afraid that something would happen.
However, when they ran back to where they had come from, they didn't see the stairs that led to the Great Wall.
The Great Wall had already transformed into a dimensional zone. It was impossible to jump off the city wall and leave. Although they could jump out of the city wall, the dimensional zone's power would take effect if they did so. Their bodies would be bound by a mysterious force. The further they were from the Great Wall, the greater the force.
It was as though there was a powerful spring hanging on their bodies. They would eventually be pulled back to the Great Wall. Only by leaving through the stairs could they truly leave the Great Wall.
"No … How can there be no one … It's clearly here …" Wang Chan looked around and was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"It's fine. Since we can't get out, why don't we see what's on the beacon tower?" As Zhou Wen spoke, he walked towards the beacon tower.
Although Wang Chan was very worried, there was nothing she could do. All she could do was follow Zhou Wen to the beacon tower.
Xiao Si said from the side, "I've long said that only my Traversing Calamity Buddha Body can make you carefree. No one else can."
Wang Chan pretended not to hear him and quickly walked to Zhou Wen's side.
Soon, the three of them ascended a nearby beacon tower. They saw a strange container emitting a large amount of black smoke, and the nearby Undying Battle Souls were throwing themselves into the container.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised to discover that the reason the black smoke was produced seemed to be because of the burning of the Undying Battle Souls.
Zhou Wen turned to look at the other nearby beacon towers, but he didn't see any smoke rising from them. Only this beacon tower had smoke rising from it.
He carefully sized up the container. It was a two-eared pot. It was completely black, but it wasn't made of gold or jade. It looked more like lacquer.
There were mysterious patterns and patterns engraved on the pot. Zhou Wen couldn't understand what they meant.
As more and more Undying Battle Souls entered the pot, the patterns on the pot gradually lit up. It was as though an evil aura was circulating around the pot.
The nearby Undying Battle Souls had already entered the pot, and the black smoke stopped spewing out. The pot began to shake violently.
Suddenly, something spewed out from the ear flask. Wang Chan's expression changed drastically when she saw what it was.
