Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 741: The Fog Hidden Danger Outside the Building

Below the poem is the guidance for the loved ones:
'Please find the exit of the mystery building, wake up from the nightmare, and eliminate the source of the nightmare.'

After reading it, Wu Xian put the certificate away.

The guidance of the certificate of ordination is vague, but even if there is only a direction, it can put the family members at ease, so that they don’t have to wander around like a headless fly.

"It really is a nightmare. I heard this when I entered the blessed land."

“This is a nightmare, but no one wants to wake up.”

"Combined with the guidance on the certificate, it can be confirmed that I am in a dream. If I want to wake up from the dream, the easiest way is to commit suicide. I used this method to escape from the Weak Water before."

"But this time the blessed land is the home of nightmares. I'm afraid it's not that simple. If you die in a dream, you might actually die."

"Also, judging from the guidance information, there are dangers in dreams, and it is not safe even after waking up, which means you can't be careless throughout the whole process."

After thinking for a moment, Wu Xian checked his abilities again.

The three props for worshipping gods are: the immortal ghost supernatural power - a substitute for death, the precious magic weapon - the purple gold bowl, and the common magic weapon - the double axes of heavenly killing.

Among them, the immortal ghost power - Death Substitution was only carried but not used, because Wu Xian still had the potential of "natural hardness" and was not easily killed instantly. This life-saving power should be used only when it is really necessary.

The three blessings are: 'One becomes three', 'Aggression is like fire' and 'The moon is supported by many stars'.

In addition, there is a flowing bead with a triangular tag on the wrist, which is the Three Officials sect ornament given by the Taoist "Yun Tianshu" before entering the blessed land.

Since this thing can be brought into the blessed land, it means that it is not as simple as it seems. The above is the power that Wu Xian can currently mobilize.

……

Then, while the candlelight from the statue was still on, Wu Xian began to conduct a brief exploration of the living room.

There are two anomalies in the living room.

The first is the window. It was pitch black outside the window and no scenery could be seen. Looking out the window near the candle of the statue, all one could see was thick fog.

"This seems to correspond to what the poem says, 'The fog outside the building hides danger.'"

The second anomaly is the sofa.

This sofa has obviously been moved. If you lie on the ground and take a closer look, you can find that the bottom of the sofa is cleaner than the outside, which means that someone has cleaned it specially. In addition, the color of the gaps between the tiles near the sofa is darker, and there is a faint odor when you smell it up close.

Looking up, I saw traces of friction from ropes on the beams above the sofa.

"That is to say, there was once a person who was hung here and bled."

"When I first entered the blessed land, I was hung upside down..."

Corresponding to the saying "There is danger hidden in the fog outside the building", there is also a saying "There is evil spirit hidden inside the house". This living room may not be as safe as it seems.

Wu Xian took a deep breath and swung his hand to throw out an axe.

The axe has a simple shape, an ebony handle, and a steel blade. The axe head is larger than an ordinary kitchen knife, and the edge of the blade exudes a fierce aura. It feels quite heavy in the hand.

Although the weight was a bit excessive, Wu Xian could feel that the murderous aura in the axe and his own murderous aura as a 'natural killer' were complementing each other, making him eager to try and couldn't help wanting to chop something.

With the axe in hand, Wu Xian felt a little more at ease and bravely began to explore the three doors in the other three directions of the living room.

The first two doors lead to two bedrooms, both of which look like they are often occupied, but the styles of the bedrooms are different. One is clean and the other is messy. This house must be shared by two people.

Wu Xian held the axe in one hand and carefully opened the third door with the other. Creak...

As soon as the door opened, a hand stretched out. The hand was bony and covered with blood.

Even though he was prepared, Wu Xian was still frightened.

He hurriedly used his body to push the door, but the hand tried desperately to get in, not caring about the pain of being crushed by the door. Along with the hand, wisps of mist also came in!
After a struggle, Wu Xian found that the opponent was getting stronger and stronger, so he could only grit his teeth and swing the axe with one hand to chop off the hand, and then the door was closed.

"Ha ha……"

Wu Xian breathed softly and calmed himself down. His skinny hands crawled on the ground like a worm, and only stopped after a long while.

Then Wu Xian looked towards the hallway in fear, and found that nothing had broken into the room. He didn't know whether the thing had done something else or the living room had better sound insulation.

"It seems that outside the third door should be a balcony, which belongs to the space outside the building. Once the door is opened, dangerous things will rush in..."

In addition to the three doors, there is also an attic on the well-shaped beams.

The attic is more than three meters high and can only be reached by climbing up a ladder. It is pitch black up there and one cannot tell what is hidden inside.

After the shock of the third door, Wu Xian decided not to explore the attic for the time being.

……

In this way, Wu Xian had a basic understanding of the living room.

The next step is to worship the gods.

Wu Xian took the incense stick, lit it with a candle, bowed to the statue of 'The Lady of the Nine Heavens Who Grants the Secrets of Heaven in Dreams' and then inserted it into the incense burner.

The fragrance of incense sticks floated in the air, the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens danced in the smoke, and the yellow, blue and black lights slowly rotated, eventually forming three phantoms in front of Wu Xian.

The three phantoms were the statues of the Three Officials, but only the yellow-robed Heavenly Official was shining with divine light and full of majesty. The Earth Official changed from a black-haired fierce beast to a naive and cute one, and the Water Official changed from mysterious and profound to a cute cartoon style...

"Looking at it this way, the reward for worshipping the Goddess of the Nine Heavens is to choose one from the Three Officials. I have the ability to transform one into three blessings, so all three are available for selection, but..."

Wu Xian couldn't help but want to complain.

"Your Highness Xuannv, the difference in the treatment you give your direct superior and other superiors is too great!"

As he was speaking, the three shadows dissipated and turned into props for worshiping gods. Compared with the strange noises during the worship, the types of props for worshiping gods were somewhat ordinary.

The three props are:
Feint to the East and Attack in the West: The next ranged attack will become a phantom, and the real attack will hit the enemy from the opposite direction.

Demonic Power - Crab Bubble: Can spit out explosive bubbles to attack the enemy. The bubble can be a string or a single bubble. It can be spit out three times basically and can be used again after recovering qi and blood.

The filial son’s mourning stick: a stick wrapped with white paper with the name of the deceased written on it. The filial son holds the stick and kneels every three steps to knock on the door to the underworld. The stick has the power of the underworld and can drive away evil spirits for the dead soul.

Wu Xian looked at the three worship props one by one.

Firstly, he had no means of long-range attack, and secondly, he had a double-axe as a melee weapon that was more suitable for his abilities, so Wu Xian chose the magic power - Crab Bubble.

There is also a sentence in the book of supernatural powers:

"In the netherworld, it is difficult for ghosts and gods to enter dreams. Only Xuannv can enter dreams and teach the secrets of heaven. What Xuannv gives can only be used in dreams."

Wu Xian licked his lips. So if he wanted to solve the troubles outside the dream, he would need to find power other than Xuannv.
