Yan Yuming returned to his residence, took out the clay statue of Miao Danjun first, and placed it on top. Imitating Zhang Yu, he reached out and rubbed it, chuckling. Then, he placed his own clay statue aside.
He looked at it with satisfaction, then stepped back, sat down cross-legged, and picked up the Taoist book to read. This was Zhang Yu's instruction, asking him to pay more attention to his cultivation in addition to refining Divine Spirit.
It was just that those cryptic words and principles always gave him a headache, but he still forced himself to continue, all the way until night, when he finally stopped. After taking a pill, he then used the breathing technique to refine his divine essence.
After all these years of cultivation and meditation, all of this had become instinctive. As soon as he used the Breathing Method, he entered a meditative state and forgot everything.
When he came out of the meditative state, it was already dawn.
He exhaled, and suddenly seemed to think of something. He glanced forward and saw that his clay doll was still there, and his heart was relieved.
He didn't know whether this thing was used to warn him or for other purposes, but seeing that this thing didn't have any abnormalities, his mood naturally became better.
Today, he had an appointment with several of his fellow disciples to watch a grand play. Yesterday, he also promised to bring Yaodou. Now that the time was near, he stood up, went to the inner room to change into a Taoist robe, and excitedly pushed the door open and walked out.
When he closed the door, he could see through the gap of the closed door that a black-robed Taoist with an expressionless face was standing where he originally sat.
Since Yingxiong entered the residence arranged by Xin Yao, he had been sitting there, as if he had never moved.
Another day passed, and the sky darkened again.
At this time, he suddenly opened his scarlet eyes. The clay doll in front of him still didn't move.
However, at this moment, it had completely turned into the appearance of Tan Jun. It was gurgling and swaying there, as if it was trying to break free. However, there was a black smoke around the clay doll, as if it was bound.
Yingxiong looked at it calmly. At this time, the smoke-like black fire behind him suddenly drifted, as if there was a sudden wind blowing past. The atmosphere seemed to be torn apart out of thin air, revealing a semi-circular wooden shelf inside. Inside, there were all kinds of clay dolls, each of which was exquisite and small.
Two of the dolls jumped out and arrived in front of the table. They grabbed the wriggling Tanjun Doll from the left and right, then jumped back and placed it on one of the empty seats. As soon as the Tanjun Doll came into contact with it, it was immobilized.
As the two dolls returned to their original positions, the black flames that drifted like smoke retreated, and everything that had happened was gone once again.
On the third day, Yingxiong came out of his residence, and came to the hall. Looking at Xin Yao, Yan Yuming, and others waiting, he said calmly, "That ghost has been sealed, you don't have to worry.
Xin Yao was surprised.
Yan Yuming said in surprise, "Uncle, how did you do it? “
"I know, I know!"
Yaodou jumped out from behind Yingxiong and said, "Teacher told me a few days ago that the reason Tan Jun can exist is because this ghost has a carrier. If this carrier is not destroyed, it will never be killed. Fortunately, we can seal it.
This ghost was looking for people in order to seek sustenance. This was an obsession engraved in his heart. However, he would instinctively choose a cultivator with a similar cultivation level to himself. That was why he had his eyes on Martial Uncle Xin from the beginning.
Later, although it was resolved by Teacher, if this thing is unwilling to give up, it will find us sooner or later. Therefore, there must be something to attract it … "
Qing Shu said, "So we used a clay doll instead?"
Yaodou nodded and said, "Yes!"
Yan Yuming was puzzled and said, "But why did it target the clay doll and not us?"
Yaodou said, "Teacher said that there is no strict boundary between reality and illusion in the world. When I look at Tan Jun, it is both real and illusory. It is not a real person. When Tan Jun looks at me, it is not looking at a person, but looking at Qi. What we look like and what body we have doesn't make a difference to it. It replaces all the external reflections of the human body.
Therefore, after this ghost replaced the original owner, most people will only think that it is the original person if they don't have a strong mind and cultivation! "
When everyone heard this, they came to a sudden realization, and most of the mysteries surrounding Tan Jun faded away, making him no longer as unfathomable as before.
Yaodou said, "Teacher put your Qi into the clay doll from the beginning, so Tan Jun will unconsciously be involved in it. This is an instinct that can't be violated, and it is very easy. But when it finds that something is wrong and wants to come out, it is already too late."
Yan Yuming couldn't help but ask, "This ghost was taken down so easily?"
Xin Yao adjusted her glasses and said seriously, "No, this is not simple. Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding achievements. Sometimes, even if you understand this principle, you may not be able to do it. Taking it down without any fighting is the most brilliant method."
She looked at Yingxiong and said, "Senior Brother Ying, you said that this thing can't be destroyed. Will it come out again?"
Yingxiong stretched out his hand and spread out his palm. As a cloud of black smoke floated past, the Tan Jun doll appeared there, but at this moment, it was struggling. He clenched his five fingers again, and the Tan Jun doll dissipated with the black smoke.
He said indifferently, "If I come down to fight an enemy, I will call it out to help me every time. After a long time, it will merge with the secret clay. Even if the restraint is removed, it will not be able to return to its original appearance."
Outside the Qingyang Upper Continent, Zhang Yu stood in the main cabin of the white ship and looked at a few broken stone slabs floating in front of him.
Now that his cultivation had reached the peak, it was easier to find out what his adoptive father had left behind than before. However, this required him to make a trip to the Eastern Court.
However, there was a sleeping giant in the Eastern Court. Facing such an EsGod, he also had to consider whether he would disturb this thing if he went there.
If he fought with it, the Protectorate might be affected, just like when Zhu Xuanshou fought with the Chaos monster. Although the two of them were pushed out of the world because of the clash of mana, they still left a huge crater in the Wasteland.
Furthermore, he was not sure if there was only one giant there. Therefore, this matter should be delayed for a while. After he went to the Xuanting, he would think of a way to deal with it in the future.
He put away the stone slabs and looked up. He had unknowingly stayed here for a day and a night. The surrounding area had changed from the Wasteland to a green land full of vitality.
At this moment, at the outermost area of the lake, it had attracted many Lingdu with spirituality. However, most of the Lingdu with spirituality were naturally vigilant. Because he was here, they did not dare to go too deep. Only a few bold birds would occasionally land by the lake to drink.
He did not choose to stay here. Instead, with a thought, the entire white ship disappeared. When it reappeared in the Void, it was already on another Wasteland.
He looked down. This was the place where Ancestor Yuan Tong's corpse was sealed.
The existence of this person's corpse was a hidden danger, especially the endless evil aura. If it was used by others, it would definitely cause endless trouble. Therefore, he decided to dispose of this person's corpse before he left.
His aura changed, and he turned into a ray of clear light and descended from the white ship. In an instant, he passed through the surface and landed in the vast cave below. He hovered in the air.
As soon as he entered, the entire formation around him shook violently, as if it was repelling him.
He glanced at it, and his eyes flashed slightly. The flow of the surrounding Earth Veins immediately went to another place under his will. As for the Forbidden Formation, it lost a great help and was naturally suppressed.
However, the flow of the Earth Veins was just a supplement. The key was not here.
He looked up and saw a talisman drawing that occupied a radius of several miles above him. There were golden patterns on the pattern, and they were faintly discernible as if they were breathing.
It could be seen that after the black and red streams of murderous aura emerged from Patriarch Yuan Tong's corpse, they would flow through this place and then be guided back into his body. However, every time they passed by, they would be melted a little.
It was also because of this talisman that the evil aura emitted from Ancestor Yuan Tong's corpse was slowly dissipated. In the end, it would be able to completely destroy this person's corpse.
This should have been the arrangement of the teacher behind Bai Xiu. After so many years of venting and wearing down, although the murderous aura still looked like a surging tide, it seemed that he was already on the decline. Even if no one intervened, in about a hundred years or so, he would be able to completely dissolve it.
However, when he looked down, his eyes suddenly flashed and he looked up again.
No, there was a problem here!
When he first came here, he could only be considered a junior cultivator. Moreover, he did not know much about formations, so he did not have an accurate understanding of some things. However, it was different now.
He found that the arrangement of this formation was too "gentle"!
According to the normal sealing method, after the Forbidden Formation absorbed all the evil aura, it would then grind the remaining corpse of Ancestor Yuan Tong to completely end this matter.
However, according to the current arrangement, although the evil aura would be exhausted in the end, it would not harm the corpse at all. The propriety here was very accurate.
But why did Bai Xiu's teacher do this?
He thought for a moment. From Bai Xiu's performance before, this person could easily summon Ancestor Yuan Tong's soul and obtain the method of refining some kind of artifact from Ancestor Yuan Tong. From this point of view, this corpse should be left here by Bai Xiu's teacher so that his disciple could borrow power at a critical moment.
He felt that this might be the reason, but he always felt that there should be a deeper reason.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to look at Ancestor Yuan Tong's corpse in front of him. In an instant, a ray of light shot out from his eyes. There seemed to be countless nebulas flowing in his eyes. After looking at it for a while, he found a clue!
