Chapter 8: Standard Equipment of a Magic Giant

Shaking his head, Lu Yan dispelled the messy thoughts in his mind and focused on the spell.

"Thinking about it carefully, I killed Manager Chu two months ago, which can be considered as killing a person. Maybe I have accumulated some karma?"

Thinking of this, he followed the spell description, pinched the Red Lotus Seal in his hand and tried to cast the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

However, no matter how Lu Yan practiced his skills, he could not find any trace of karma, let alone ignite the red lotus fire.

After trying for a while, Lu Yan finally chose to give up.

"Manager Chu has killed so many innocent employees, and the capitalists have done things that are worthy of being hanged on the street lamps. Killing them is considered to be ridding the people of harm.

There is definitely no karma, and maybe I have even accumulated some merits.”

Lu Yan couldn't help but complain.

Although he failed to learn magic, Lu Yan was not too disappointed. Practicing the "Red Lotus Karma Fire Sutra" was his only choice. Whether he had exclusive magic or not, he could only practice this technique.

As for magical means, he still kept a large number of talismans in his storage bag.

Those taken from the talisman shop, plus the dozens in the storage bag, add up to hundreds of talismans, enough to last for a while.

After solving the trouble with the demon monk, you can go to the fairy version again to collect the real spells.

In addition, Lu Yan has something more practical than magic in his hands.

Thinking of this, Lu Yan had an idea, and a small sword that looked like a jade hairpin and a black banner as long as an arm fell into his hands.

Picking up the flying sword, Lu Yan began to inject magic power into it, but the pure magic power that had just been promoted disappeared in an instant like a cow entering a muddy sea.

With a frown on his face, Lu Yan tried to increase the amount of magic power he injected. After injecting nearly half of his body's magic power into the flying sword, the small jade sword as long as his index finger slowly rose into the air.

Lu Yan's face changed slightly. You have to know that he was practicing a top-grade magic technique, and the purity of his magic power was far beyond that of an ordinary casual cultivator at the first level of Qi training.

But even so, it is still difficult to control this flying sword even after consuming nearly half of the magic power, which is enough to show that this flying sword is definitely a mid-grade magic weapon.

"The first level of Qi training still has too little mana. Even if I can barely control it, I can't use it to fight the enemy. I can only put it aside for now."

Lu Yan reluctantly put away the flying sword and then focused his attention on the soul flag.

He reached out and picked up the Soul Flag, and after injecting magic power into it, the Soul Flag, which had been dormant for two months, finally underwent a change.

Three resentful souls suddenly flew out from the soul flag, their faces distorted and their bodies unreal, and they let out shrill cries that penetrated their souls as they flew around the room.

If ordinary people hear this wailing sound for a long time, their souls will become weak.

Lu Yan, who was holding the soul flag in his hand, could sense that there was still a vengeful soul that had not yet fully formed and was still residing inside the soul flag.

“The souls of more than twenty monks were used to create three vengeful spirits.

As for the remaining resentful soul that has not yet taken shape, it should be because I took away the soul flag in advance, which caused this magical weapon to not be fully formed and only become a low-grade magical weapon.

But this is a good thing. I may not be able to easily manipulate the completed soul flag, but at this stage, it is not a big burden for me."

Reaching out his hand and waving the soul flag, Lu Yan gave the order:

"Silence!"

The three resentful spirits stopped crying instantly and flew obediently to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan began to use his magic power to nourish and refine this magic weapon. This was the most basic ritual, which would allow the cultivator to better control the magic weapon. An hour later, Lu Yan slowly opened his eyes and understood the specific effect of the Soul Banner.

The first thing is to drive the resentful souls. Each resentful soul has the strength of an early stage of Qi training and ignores physical attacks.

This characteristic is nothing in the fairy version, as any spell can hurt the resentful soul. However, in the urban version without supernatural powers, the resentful soul is almost invincible. Unless you use large-scale thermal weapons or flamethrowers that rely on high temperature of flames to kill, ordinary firearms cannot hurt the resentful soul at all.

Moreover, resentful souls are invisible and intangible. Only people with strong souls can discover their existence. Ordinary people cannot detect them at all.

The resentful spirits can directly attack and devour souls. Sacrificed souls can increase the strength of the resentful spirits. Some powerful souls can be directly sealed into the soul banner.

The Soul Banner's concealment and ability to ignore physical attacks made Lu Yan immediately realize that the effect of the Soul Banner in the urban version was far superior to ordinary spells.

The soul flag, which had completed the initial sacrifice by circulating magic power, began to shrink and was taken into Lu Yan's palm.

"A magic technique, a spell that requires accumulated karma to practice, and a soul flag that becomes more powerful the more it kills. How can this look like the standard equipment of a magic master?"

Lu Yan was worried in his heart.

He glanced outside and saw that it was already dark. It was a good time to implement Lu Yan's idea.

After changing into an inconspicuous black outfit, Lu Yan hurried out of the house.

Half an hour later, Lu Yan appeared in a hotel.

Standing in front of the window sill of the room, Lu Yan looked at the building hundreds of meters away, on which were clearly written the words "Los Angeles Police Department" in large letters.

Since leaving the underground factory and returning home, Lu Yan has been paying attention to the subsequent progress of the underground factory while practicing.

At that time, Lu Yan set fire to the underground factory just to cover up his own traces. The spiritual fire mixed with a trace of spiritual energy had a high temperature but it was not a real spiritual fire. It was not enough to completely burn the bodies in the freezer. Once the fire was extinguished, problems would definitely be found when the scene was investigated.

In the urban version of the environment, organ trafficking is a big deal. By then, with the help of the Los Angeles Police Department, we will hopefully be able to find the person behind Manager Chu.

According to the rules of version updates, the boss behind Shopkeeper Chu in the urban version is most likely the evil monk in the fairy-tale version.

But contrary to Lu Yan's expectations, the matter ended after the fire was extinguished. There was no subsequent news of the discovery of the body, nor any progress in the organ trading case.

It was as if the underground organ factory and the corpses within it never existed.

This makes things even more complicated.

Initially, Lu Yan wanted to use the Los Angeles Police Department to search for the traces of the demonic monks, but now it seems that someone inside the police station seems to be in cahoots with the demonic monks.

This feeling was just like when Lu Yan was in the Bamboo Grove Market and was worried that the demonic monks were secretly manipulating the upper echelons of the Bamboo Grove Market.

The people in the Los Angeles Police Department assisted the evil monk in erasing the clues, but isn’t this incident itself also a clue?
"Go!"

Lu Yan spoke softly, and a ghost behind him passed through the window of the hotel and slowly floated towards the direction of the police station.

In the hotel, Lu Yan formed hand seals and his eyes shone with a deep light, and the scene that the resentful soul saw began to appear before his eyes.

At this time, the police station had already closed for the day, leaving only a few staff on duty chatting idly.

They never realized that a vengeful spirit was wandering in the police station.

After a while, the resentful spirit stopped in front of a door with three big words clearly written on it.
