Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 921 Burning Dream Blade
Rumble…

Golden lightning struck the imprisoned woman and the eight-faced constable, causing sparks to fly everywhere and ripples to spread through the air.

When the thunder ended, Wu Xian's eardrums were ringing, his internal organs felt slightly numb, and even his long-standing troubles were resolved.

His curly hair has all turned straight!

Although this kind of straightness is not what he wanted...

The prisoner's body was charred black from the electric shock, resembling a tree after a fire, with black liquid seeping from the cracks resembling tree bark.

Wu Xian ignited the black liquid, ending the prisoner's life for the second time.

call……

The Burning Dream Dagger went out, finally exhausting its kill count.

Wu Xian glanced at the time, dared not delay any longer, and hurriedly ran to the water dungeon door to use the second key.

After the cell door opened, Wu Xian, carrying the last human head meteor hammer, once again stepped into a pitch-black spiral staircase.

This time he didn't have the Burning Dream Dagger for illumination, but he had brought a flashlight beforehand, so he didn't need to proceed in the dark.

After walking for a while, Wu Xian heard strange footsteps coming from below.

In the damp, dark spiral staircase, under the pale beam of a flashlight, a malevolent creature with tentacles covering its neck slowly ascends, the shadows of the tentacles on the wall twisting and terrifying.

call!
Wu Xian swung his head-shaped meteor hammer at them.

Before the head could fall, the tentacles on the guardian demon's head locked it shut and desperately stuffed it into the gaping mouth on the neck.

This was exactly what Wu Xian wanted. Four bolts of lightning struck down, causing white smoke to rise from the body of the evil spirit guarding the area.

But this is not enough.

Wu Xian took out a talisman and flicked it at the evil spirit guarding it. The human head in the evil spirit's mouth suddenly changed its shape and turned into a huge wooden plow!

Plop, splash...

The upper body guarding the evil spirit was burst open, with twisted tentacles and flesh splattering everywhere. Only the lower half of the body remained, lying on the ground, oozing black liquid.

Wu Xian removed a tentacle that had splashed onto his shoulder and sat down on the steps.

Now, he can finally take a short rest.

Wu Xian had previously obtained two talismans, "Sword-forging Plowshare Technique" and "Hundred-Step Piercing Willow Spell," through the blessing of "Three Lives, One Life."

The technique of "turning swords into plowshares" can transform weapons into wooden plowshares.

The human-headed meteor hammer is Wu Xian's weapon, and this evil spirit has the habit of immediately swallowing any flesh it catches, so the technique of forging swords into plowshares is its nemesis.

After resting for a minute, Wu Xian took out four Sacred Fire Talismans from his pocket.

He obtained these four Sacred Fire Talismans by killing the imprisoned woman, the stitching captain, the three stitching security guards, and the evil spirits in the restaurant.

Wu Xian chose one of the talismans, and with a flick of his wrist, the talisman turned into sparks that landed on the Burning Dream Dagger.

call……

The extinguished dagger was reignited with flames.

Previously, Wu Xian had used four Sacred Fire Talismans to enhance the fire temperature twice, the fire seed once, and the fire field once.

This time he chose the Fire Seed, adding another kill to the Burning Dream Dagger.

Wu Xian took the Burning Dream Dagger and stabbed it into the lower half of the evil spirit's body, which was oozing black liquid. Instantly, the body was engulfed in flames, and the evil spirit was executed again, giving him another Sacred Fire Talisman.

After obtaining the Sacred Flame Talisman, Wu Xian quickly used it to complete the enhancement. After the enhancement was completed, the name of the Burning Dream Dagger was changed again.

Constant Weapon: Burning Dream Blade

Fire temperature +3, fire area +3, fire source +3.

Special effect 1: Carbonization.

Special Effect 2: Imitation.

Special Effect 3: Blade Binding - Constrains the fire, concentrates the flames, slightly increases the flame temperature, and greatly enhances the physical destruction effect of the flames.

Special Effect 4: Mass Slaughter. When multiple evil spirits are eliminated at once using items enhanced by the Sacred Flame Talisman, only one Slaughter attempt is consumed.

Leaving aside the regular enhancements, the Blade Binding and Collective Slash are special effects granted after activating the Benevolent Words Sacred Flame by using three Sacred Flame Talismans.

Wu Xian gripped the hilt and with a slight exertion, a longsword of flame, like a laser beam, unfurled. This Burning Dream Longsword was 1.2 meters long and 2.5 fingers wide. The entire blade was composed of bright yellow flames, slightly curved, and felt as light as a feather. The air around the blade was distorted by the high temperature. It felt weightless in his hand, and with each swing, a high-temperature blade shadow followed.

Wu Xian held it in his hand, and his heart raced.

This thing is so cool, even cooler than lightsabers in movies and TV shows. When the blade tip cuts through the wall, it even leaves clear cutting marks.

The feel of it was even better than the rare weapons Wu Xian had previously possessed.

Unfortunately, there are limited kill counts, and there's no way to take it out of this blessed land.

call!
Wu Xian put away the dagger and checked the other spoils.

In this round of time reset, Wu Xian used up a total of five Sacred Fire Talismans, plus the 'Long-lasting Burning Character' he used at the beginning, for a total of six talismans.

Six crescent moon marks appeared on the back of his hand, and the effect of "Three Become One" was triggered twice, granting him two random talismans.

Both talismans are spell talismans, and they are:

Lightning and Fire Conversion Technique: Converts the flames in the current room into lightning, and the lightning into flames. If the room is more than ten meters long and wide, it will only be effective within a ten-meter radius centered on the familiar. It can be used once.

The Art of Calming the Mind: Restlessness overcomes cold, stillness overcomes heat, and tranquility is the foundation of order in the world. Recite a passage of scripture to release pure energy, dissolving the restlessness and anxiety of those around you and helping them calm down quickly. This technique can be used three times.

Upon seeing the effects of these two spells, Wu Xian's expression froze slightly.

The Thunder and Fire Conversion Technique has an interesting effect, but Wu Xian doesn't know how to use it yet. However, he has already figured out where to use the Mind-Clearing and Spirit-Calming Technique.

……

crunch...

Wu Xian pushed open the door to the water dungeon.

The seven companions were still hanging in the water dungeon, but this time they were not asleep. They all looked at Wu Xian with complicated expressions.

A slender woman in an antique mask mocked in a hoarse voice:
"Oh, you're tormenting us again."

"Hey……"

Wu Xian sighed.

He was also a kindred spirit and deeply sympathized with the plight of these seven people. Every time he saw them, he felt a bittersweet ache in his heart.

"Attain utmost emptiness, hold fast to stillness, and all things will arise together... Returning to the root is called stillness, stillness is called returning to one's destiny... The art of purifying the mind and calming the spirit!"

Light, as clear as a cold pool, emanated from Wu Xian's hand and fell upon the seven hanging companions. This spell was meant to be used here.

After the spell was cast, the eyes of the seven people softened considerably.

The man with demonic markings on his face said wearily, "Stop your sympathy and don't waste your magic on us. Our suffering can't be alleviated by such things. Go do what you need to do."

Wu Xian understood, bowed, and took a knife from the wall.

"Excuse me, seniors."

"Wait!"

Just as Wu Xian was about to make his move, the slender woman wearing a mask spoke:

“We are not seniors, but we entered the blessed land at different times and faced different things. I am Miao Qiansi, a member of the Three Lotus Clan.”

The man covered in demonic markings spoke: "Cheng Mo, a member of the Three Lotus Clan, is skilled in demonic powers."

“Yin Zhen, Shuang Lian, I like small animals… You have the scent of animals on you, very beautiful animals.” The third to speak was a familiar with animal-like ears and heavy body hair.

“Bi Yiming, Lotus Attached Person.” The fourth person was a young man with a clear voice.

The fifth person was a woman dressed in a light gauze dress with her makeup ruined: "I am Lü Jiaojiao, a member of the Twin Lotus Clan. I probably don't look very good right now."

"I am Bao Datong, a member of the Lotus Clan. I haven't eaten in a long time. Please bring me some food next time you come." The sixth person was a fat man with a hairstyle resembling a watermelon rind.

The last person was a middle-aged man with a stubble beard. He looked at Wu Xian and only said his name.

"I am Shen Longhu."

Wu Xian wrote down the names of the seven people one by one, and then solemnly introduced himself.

"I am Wu Xian..."

Shen Longhu gave a wry smile: "Infinite, huh, that's a fitting name."
