Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 356 Guiding the Turbid Ghosts, the Opportunity to Obtain the New Town Seal (Seeking votes at the end of the month~)

The deal with the Bureau of Investigation was successfully completed. In the end, the Bureau of Investigation did not allow the underworld to turn the spirit infant sculpture back into the previous ghost infant, but instead chose to make a direct transaction.

In reality, Chen Xin's claim of turning back was just talk.

After being washed by the 'amniotic fluid' on the Yama-level placenta, the ghost infant lost its ability to communicate with the gods of the turbid world. Now, it is just a spirit infant sculpture that can protect the fetus.

As for what the polls would do with the baby spirit sculpture or what research they would conduct, Chen Xin didn't care.

In any case, whatever research he did, he could see it through that infant spirit sculpture.

As for this transaction, in addition to some information about the Corpse Demon, Chen Xin also received two confidential pieces of information from the Bureau of Investigation.

It's said to be two, but one of them is actually a bonus.

The bonus item is a record from the Bureau of Investigation regarding the birth of the God of the Chaotic World.

The cat that Chen Xin had encountered before was also a kind of birth, but in that case, the power of the turbid world god was rarely received.

This birth was somewhat unusual.

According to the Bureau of Polls, the newly born God of the Mortal Realm likely started as a low-level wandering soul, gradually revealing his true power as his strength increased.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the vessel of the God of Chaos to run away with the items when encountering Mo Pao and the others.

Therefore, the easiest way to destroy that kind of vessel of the turbid world god is before it is born or when it has just been born. If you wait for it to develop for a period of time, then there will be a big problem.

Last night, the Mubei City Investigation Bureau was focused on the Divine Messenger Organization and had no idea that someone was doing this kind of thing in a remote corner of Mubei City.

If the members of the Divine Messenger Organization hadn't suddenly rushed into that basement when they were desperate, Mubei City might have faced an even greater crisis just after dealing with the threat posed by the Divine Messenger Organization.

In a way, although the people from the Divine Messenger Organization destroyed the Mubei City Investigation Bureau, they may have saved the entire Mubei City!
After hearing this explanation, Chen Xin made some guesses based on the information he knew.

The Bureau of Investigation was unaware of the division of the 'layers' in the underworld, nor did it know that the gods of the turbid world were actually separated from the mortal world by a full five layers.

Therefore, the reason why the power gained from the guide is less, according to Chen Xin's knowledge, is that the transmission of 'power' is weakened as it passes through those layers of the Netherworld.

As for why the ghost baby was different from the previous ones, Chen Xin had secretly performed a soul-summoning ritual on the female corpse in the basement during the meeting and learned the reason.

The result surprised Chen Xin.

It has to be said that human imagination is limitless.

Last night, those two members of the Ghost Slave Organization didn't actually communicate with one god of the mortal world, but... two!
The members of the Ghost Slave Organization were unaware of the existence of the Netherworld, and they were also unaware that the transmission of 'power' would be weakened.

But they took a different approach and solved the problem in an alternative way.

That is to communicate and 'sacrifice' this world god known to many organizations in the Great Xia Dynasty, and ask Him to open a passage for another world god!

To prevent the 'sacrifice' from disagreeing with their request, the members of these two demon slave organizations prepared offerings related to another god of the turbid world, and also sacrificed all the life force of a human who volunteered to dedicate himself.

And with this method, they actually succeeded!
The 'sacrifice' opened a passage to the mortal world, consuming its own power to envelop and send down the power of another god of the mortal world.

However, the results still deviated somewhat.

Originally, the members of the Ghost Slave organization imagined that the God of Chaos would immediately display overwhelming power after his descent.

However, the gods of the turbid world that actually appeared still needed to eat certain foods to increase their power, which led to the subsequent situation.

Although Chen Xin was not present at the time, he had a few guesses about the result.

Either the 'sacrifice' didn't completely envelop the other's power when it pierced through the netherworld, or He cut corners.

Either the matter of penetrating the netherworld is not something that can be bypassed simply by building bridges and paving roads.

There are some unknown circumstances that Chen Xin needs to investigate gradually.

He was the only one who went to explore it, because no one in the mortal world could come into contact with the underworld.

Besides the information about the birth of the God of Chaos, another piece of information is the 'Warm Sun Project' that Chen Xin has always been very interested in.

The Bureau of Polling recounted the ins and outs of Project Warm Sunshine, showcasing its ambitions and expectations in this endeavor.

It must be said that without Chen Xin and the "Complete Collection of Town Objects," it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call the Bureau of Investigation the savior of this world.

However, what shocked Chen Xin the most was that the rising suns in Project Warm Sun were not a kind of natural magical mineral, but were created by the Bureau of Investigation!
The material, on the other hand, is a person's blood.

Many of the things the Bureau of Investigation uses to deal with ghosts, including Yang Stone and Blood Yang Stone, are related to that person's blood!
It can be said that without that person's blood, the Bureau of Investigation might not have changed much in terms of individual combat capabilities, but its overall strength would certainly have been much lower.

Comprehensive strength is an important indicator of the Bureau of Polling's ability to deter NGOs; if the deterrent effect is insufficient, petty people will cause trouble.

Therefore, if the Bureau of Polls is a savior organization, then the person named Warm Sunshine is the one who has made the greatest individual contribution to this savior organization.

Upon hearing the news, Chen Xin even considered going to see Nuanyang, but ultimately decided against it.

It's like a fat guy saying he has a nuclear bomb, and everyone else saying, "Show me what your nuclear bomb looks like..." It's impossible, so Chen Xin didn't say anything.

There's always a chance.

After leaving the Bureau of Investigation, Chen Xin did nothing more, but waited until night fell again.

Then, he went to a room in Mubei City.

Looking at the flat ground beneath his feet, Chen Xin slowly sank into the ground in the darkness.

After diving to a depth of twenty or thirty meters, Chen Xin finally saw the person who had wrapped himself in a pillar of earth.

Who else could it be but the Pillar Envoy?
During the previous meeting, Chen Xin also went to the Bureau of Investigation from the underworld to summon the souls of the corpses of the members of the Divine Envoy organization in the bureau.

Originally, he wanted to obtain more information about the Divine Messenger organization, but unexpectedly, he obtained the location information of the Pillar Messenger from the Divine Messenger member whose body could spew out mist.

As for the Mist Envoy, he originally came to the Bureau of Investigation to steal the Tree Envoy's ghostly body, but he didn't expect that the Bureau of Investigation had already set a trap, and he was just throwing his head away for nothing.

After obtaining the location of the Pillar Envoy, Chen Xin naturally wanted to come and take a look.

How does he breathe?

Chen Xin approached the hunched old man and found that the old man was not breathing, but his body was drawing oxygen and nutrients from the surrounding soil.

After watching for a while, Chen Xin suddenly summoned three ever-burning lamps and placed them in the soil beneath the old man.

The three ever-burning flames are not physical objects; they continue to burn even when they are in the soil.

With Chen Xin's active encouragement, the effects of the three ever-burning lamps gradually came into play.

Soon, the hunchbacked old man began to writhe in the earthen pillar he had created, and Chen Xin continued to increase the intensity of the attack.

In just over ten seconds, the hunchbacked old man had to break his 'self-imposed seclusion' and open his eyes.

After sensing his surroundings, he discovered the burning lamp beneath his body. He was surprised to find no ghostly presence.

"what is this?"

Out of curiosity, the old man lowered his body to the location of the three ever-burning lamps.

The old man reached out and grabbed three ever-burning lamps.

But just then, before he could react, three candle flames flew out and landed on his palm, which was holding the lamp base.

He let go, but the candlelight remained.

He tried to extinguish the candle flame with his yin energy, but unexpectedly the flame became even stronger after encountering the yin energy!
Terrified, the hunchbacked old man disregarded his self-imposed restraints and charged straight towards the ground above.

But then he realized that his ankle was tangled in something. Looking down, he saw a rope with barbs.

"What the hell is this!"

The old man tried everything to untie the rope, but found he simply didn't have the ability.

The hook on the rope, which was caught on the old man's ankle, caused him excruciating pain, as if he were being pricked by needles. Soon, he found that he could no longer control the soil around him.

A suffocating feeling gradually crept in, and the surrounding earth and rocks seemed to be pressing down on him. The hunched old man, his face contorted with rage, tried to climb up, but he couldn't go even a meter further.

A few minutes later, a yellowish-brown rat emerged from the old man's mouth and scurried around on the ground like a fish.

But soon, it got caught on a rope and stopped moving.

After Chen Xin successfully summoned the old man's soul and sealed it with the talisman, he left.

No one knows what happened more than 20 meters underground in that short period of time, nor will they know that there is a corpse down there.

However, dust to dust, ashes to ashes.

It's perfectly reasonable to put the body underground!
……

After reviewing the memories of the Pillar Envoy, Chen Xin fell into deep thought.

Combining the memories of other guides and tree spirits he had previously seen, Chen Xin obtained a fairly complete set of information.

Within the Divine Envoy Organization, there are also entities similar to Pillar Envoys and Tree Envoys. Their strength may not be great, but they play a very important role.

That is, to work with the guide to create a medium for the power of the gods who guide the defiled world.

The method used by the Divine Messenger Organization to draw upon the divine power of the corrupt world is something that the Bureau of Investigation does not possess.

This method of guidance differs from the previous two methods, which both guide the thoughts of the gods of the turbid world down, but this method only guides the power of the gods of the turbid world!

Or rather, this method simulates the 'divinity' of the gods in the mortal world.

They connect with the gods of the mortal world through guides, thereby obtaining the power of the corresponding gods.

Although there are still many limitations after this method is implemented, only the Divine Envoy Organization currently has the ability to borrow the power of the God of Chaos.

For example, the iron tree that previously damaged the wooden monument of the Municipal Bureau of Investigation, and the pillar that trapped the monks of Zhenlong Temple.

These things are far less powerful than the God of the Turbid World, perhaps only reaching the level of the Black Abyss. However, the strength of this power depends only on the number of guides.

The more guides there are, the stronger the guiding power.

If there had been five or six monks surrounding the Zhenlong Temple monks last night instead of four, the outcome might have been very different.

After understanding the situation, Chen Xin gained a deeper understanding of the God of Turbidity.

Then, he suddenly had a bold idea.

Since the God of this turbid world can lend His power to the guides, it means that He approves of the guides.

One of the main reasons why Chen Xin is still hesitant to enter the sixth level of the Netherworld is that he fears that if he encounters the God of Turbidity, the other party will instantly kill him from a distance.

Therefore, even with the "Complete Guide to Suppressing Objects," he would still die if he was destined to.

But now, Chen Xin has an idea.

If the 'Guide' is asked to perform a guiding ritual in the sixth level of the Netherworld in conjunction with the 'medium', would it be possible to bring the turbid gods there to one's side?

As long as he can get close to the God of Chaos, Chen Xin is confident that he can kill Him!
This confidence comes from the "Complete Guide to Town Statues"!
Now, Chen Xin has information about the 'Guide's' guiding ceremony, the ghost within the 'Pillar Envoy', and an illusory body that can take his place in the Netherworld.

Even if it fails, at most it will cost 20,000 merits to revive the substitute paper-cutting once, which Chen Xin can afford!
Just do it.

Immediately, Chen Xin stopped the illusory body from writing the novel and used 10,000 units of Yin Virtue to imprint the Tongyou Seal on the substitute paper-cut.

Then, Chen Xin summoned a reed that had been nurtured to the level of the Underworld, and had it bind the sinister rat inside the pillar's body.

After doing all that, Chen Xin went to the Bureau of Investigation and took away the remaining guidance materials from the corpses of those guides.

Chen Xin did not obtain these materials from the memories of these guides; he only knew that the materials were distributed by the guide ambassador.

Chen Xin put away two of the items, leaving one for Huan Shen, and then watched as Huan Shen took the items and entered the Netherworld.

Upon entering the sixth level of the Netherworld again and not sensing anything around him, Chen Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that the God of Chaos would suddenly appear as soon as he entered, but fortunately, the sixth floor should not be small, so it was impossible to encounter him by such a coincidence.

With that thought in mind, Chen Xin had already made his illusory body begin to act.

A ten-meter-high earthen pillar appeared beneath the phantom body's feet, making it appear as if the phantom body was standing in mid-air.

Standing atop the pillar, the phantom tore open the packet of powdered materials in its hand and sprinkled it on itself and the pillar beneath its feet.

Fearing something might go wrong, Chen Xin had his avatar hold the rat bound by reeds in both hands and began the welcoming ceremony.

Words that Chen Xin himself couldn't understand were uttered from his illusory body. This incantation-like thing was something that the guide had to do before the guide could perform the ritual.

However, Chen Xin believes that the incantation may not be of any use and is purely for the purpose of creating a sense of 'mystery'.

Although he didn't believe it, Chen Xin didn't omit anything. Everything was done according to the guide's instructions, since there weren't many guide materials available.

After reading for a full half minute, Chen Xin suddenly paused.

Fortunately, the illusion was able to control its own emotions; otherwise, Chen Xin's momentary lapse in concentration might have interrupted the incantation he was chanting.

"It actually works?"

Chen Xin was a little unsure.

Just then, the surrounding situation changed.

One after another, crimson pillars with uneven surfaces and radiating intense heat appeared around the illusory body.

Not two or three, not four or five, but countless, densely packed, bright red pillars!

"Are these all gods of the mortal world?"

"Or is this the form of the God of Chaos, with avatars?"

Chen Xin was numb.

If he has a clone, how can he use the "Complete Guide to Suppressing Objects" to smash things?
Just then, Chen Xin noticed that the location of the illusionary body had changed.

It appeared in the center of a pillar, embracing the bright red pillar like a tree.

The hissing sound continued in the darkness, and Chen Xin sensed that the phantom body's condition was deteriorating.

On another pillar, the rat had separated from its illusory form at some point, and now it was clinging to the pillar as if it were a tree.

In just two or three seconds, the rat was burned to ashes, revealing its skeleton.

Even after the rat's skeleton was exposed, the pillar still didn't put the rat down. Half a minute later, another rat appeared on the skeleton.

Looking at the rat that had been scalded to ashes once again, Chen Xin understood.

This is... an execution!

After watching for a while, Chen Xin was already thinking about whether he should let his illusionary body summon the "Complete Book of Suppressing Objects".

But if you actually summon it and it doesn't work, and instead angers the evil spirit, then it's not worth the risk.

Just as Chen Xin was pondering, the illusionary figure moved again!
This time, it appeared on another, thicker, and hotter pillar.

Chen Xin's eyes lit up.

After the illusion changed its position again, he understood.

It seems that if it can hold on, it will be replaced with a stronger pillar!
Until they switch to the thickest and hottest one?
……

P.S.: It's a bit late, but I've still finished writing it.

I've already reached 3000 monthly passes, and there are still two days left. I wonder if I can reach 4000~
