Chapter 391 Kill
Chen Xin never expected things to turn out this way.

Originally, he only paid attention to Li Gongyang because Li Gongyang had exchanged for the 'Suppressing Item Enhancement'. Chen Xin wanted to see how well the combination of the Candle Night Stone Town and the house-protecting medicine actually worked. Who knew that things would take such a turn later.

The Soul Sealing Altar was one of the four artifacts that Chen Xin had fabricated to exchange information with the Bureau of Investigation.

When Chen Xin exchanged information with the Bureau of Investigation, he only used two items: a door knocker and a sachet. The other two items he had prepared were left to gather dust on the exchange list at the Three Mountains base because Chen Xin hadn't decided what to ask about them yet.

Chen Xin originally thought that after the period of time when the underworld messengers accumulated good karma, the first items he would receive in exchange would be a sachet and another item called the 'calamus sword'.

Who knew it would be the Soul Sealing Altar!

In truth, the effect of the Soul Sealing Altar was less than Chen Xin had anticipated when he created this talisman.

What Chen Xin wanted at the time was a Soul-Sealing Altar that could capture ghosts and spirits by grabbing the jar and shouting "Shh!" Moreover, it had to be an altar that could capture more than one ghost and spirit, and at the same time, the ghosts and spirits in the Soul-Sealing Altar would be digested by the jar.

Who knew that after the information was optimized by the "Complete Encyclopedia of Suppressing Objects", it became a jar that could only be ingested once and could not be digested and could only be sealed!
After this talisman was created, Chen Xin knew it would be something that would be left to gather dust in a corner.

Instead of wasting time making a Soul-Sealing Altar, it would be more practical to make a few reeds.

However, the Soul Sealing Altar is not without its advantages.

This is the only talisman Chen Xin possesses that can resolve malevolent influences at the Yin-Yang level.

Of course, it wasn't the ferocious spirit in its normal state, but rather the ferocious spirit's soul that had been beaten to the point of near death.

Faced with that kind of soul entity, the Soul Sealing Body can also seal it.

Chen Xin originally thought that only an entity like the Bureau of Investigation would be able to use the Soul Sealing Altar, but he never expected that Li Gongyang would be willing to expend three hundred Yin Virtue for it!
This was something Chen Xin really didn't expect.

However, Li Gongyang's actions also piqued Chen Xin's interest. He wanted to see what Li Gongyang was planning to do with the Soul Sealing Altar!
……

After receiving the news that the mission had been accepted, Li Gongyang did not place all his hopes on the underworld messengers.

He went so far as to exchange for two more stickers and return to the mortal world to contact some of his former "big bosses" and ask them to help him make a Soul Sealing Altar.

Those big bosses who escaped supernatural events because of the talisman that Li Gongyang had buried for them were quite concerned about Li Gongyang's words.

However, due to the frequent occurrence of paranormal events, these big bosses stopped going out long ago and instead hid in their homes with protective medicine to give orders.

The result of this remote control approach was that some people became lax, and others misinterpreted the message.

By noon the next day, Li Gongyang had received two jars delivered by express courier, but neither of them met the requirements.

Faced with this, Li Gongyang could only place his hopes on his fellow underworld messengers.

When he returned to the quest log at the Three Mountains outpost, there were already underworld messengers waiting for him there, and more than one.

"Hello, I am the underworld messenger who issued the mission."

Li Gongyang looked at the man in his thirties in front of him and the three people beside him and said.

"Can you see it?"

Bai Yongnian handed over the jar in his hand, while also observing the underworld official who had not yet removed his raven-feather raincoat disguise.

If it was rare to find people in the Three Mountains of the Underworld who didn't wear crow feather raincoats in the past, now it's completely the opposite.

However, Bai Yongnian was not a talkative person; he was only doing his job and had no need to instruct others.

As for what kind of jar the other party wanted, they all saw it in the exchange list after discussing it.

It's the Soul Sealing Altar!

The effects of this item were described in the exchange list, but it wasn't what they needed, so the four-person team didn't pay attention to it.

But after all, this is a material for making a talisman. Bai Yongnian didn't hesitate to use two stickers to have his men make this jar, which was obviously not just for the two hundred merits.

After he returned, he instructed his factory workers to start producing these jars. Just because they are not needed now doesn't mean they won't be needed in the future.

Even if he doesn't use it, he can still sell it.

Just like his chicken farm, there are hardly any adult roosters left.

Li Gongyang, who was standing to the side, was unaware of Bai Yongnian's thoughts. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the appearance of the Soul Sealing Altar.

"no problem."

As Li Gongyang spoke, he went to the task board to hand in the task. After nodding to Bai Yongnian and the others, he took the Soul Sealing Altar and left the Three Mountains camp.

Watching Li Gongyang disappear, Ji Mo asked curiously, "It seems our colleague is in a hurry? Does the Soul Sealing Altar have some special purpose?"

Ji Mo's words naturally attracted the attention of others.

"Let's look into this later. Right now, our task is to collect as many Yin Virtue Points as possible before the situation in that old neighborhood changes."

After Bai Yongnian finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.

Immediately, the four of them, carrying the reed net, flew towards that dark and gloomy area.

……

Upon returning to the mortal world, Li Gongyang retrieved the black cat blood he had prepared beforehand and carefully cleaned the inside of the Soul Altar. After confirming that nothing was missed, he went to Yin Hui's house.

When he arrived there, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran were already there.

"Since we're here, let's go in together and finish this quickly."

Ding Xiuyuan said.

But after glancing at the time, Li Gongyang shook his head.

"We'll be more relaxed around noon."

Li Gongyang's words made Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran frown, but they didn't care.

We've been waiting all day, it won't take more than an hour.

However, while waiting, their eyes kept lingering on the jar that Li Gongyang was holding, as if they were guessing what the jar was.

Time flies by.

When the time came to activate the house-protecting medicine, Li Gongyang signaled to the two that they could go inside.

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran didn't say anything more, and wearing their mesh screens, they headed towards the building.

Although the net screen might deceive malevolent spirits, it's still better than not wearing one at all.

As soon as they entered the building, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran each took out a cigarette and lit it, while the other lit an incense stick.

Their actions were already somewhat bizarre, but what followed was even more bizarre.

Li Gongyang then pulled a small bottle of wine from his pocket and poured it out, as if he were offering wine to his ancestors at their graves.

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran were dumbfounded by Li Gongyang's actions. Before they could ask any questions, they heard a rooster crowing.

Then, they saw two roosters with colorful flames rushing into the corners of the left and right walls of the lobby on the first floor!
"Candlelight Stone Town!?"

The two Yangxiu specialists were naturally familiar with Zhuyeshi Town.

But all they ever saw were roosters burning with pale, weak flames. Why was the rooster they saw this time burning with multicolored flames?

Moreover, there are two of them appearing at once. Where is the main body of Zhuye Stone Town placed?

While the two were still stunned, the two colorful roosters rushed towards the stairs. At the same time, two more colorful roosters rushed out of the houses in the other two corners of the hall.

After reuniting with the previous two, they rushed up to the second floor together!

Four?

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran turned to look at Li Gongyang, and then heard him say "Follow me!"
They saw Li Gongyang carrying the jar rushing towards the stairs. Ignoring their astonishment, the two followed closely behind.

The two of them went up to the second floor almost immediately, only to find that Li Gongyang was gone!
"Oh no, it's the evil mist in the room! Break it!"

After understanding the current situation, Ding Xiuyuan immediately prepared to condense the Qi and Blood Furnace.

But he was clearly a step too slow; the illusion of the Fiend Mist broke on its own!

Seeing the four colorful roosters attacking a blood-red figure, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran did not hesitate. Two blood furnaces materialized, and the blood flames as thick as arms seized the opportunity and blasted straight at the figure.

Li Gongyang felt a pang of anxiety upon seeing this scene.

He hadn't forgotten why he was there. Immediately, he opened the lid of the Soul Sealing Altar and pointed the mouth of the altar at the ghost, or rather... at 'Yin Hui'!
But before he could make a move, there was a loud bang!
The flames of blood and qi emitted by the blood and qi furnace struck Yin Hui's body. The interaction between the yin energy and the power of blood and qi caused a strong fluctuation.

The crimson light formed by the flames of qi and blood exploded, illuminating the entire house.

Just as Li Gongyang was about to activate the Soul Sealing Altar by biting his finger, he paused for a moment when he saw Yin Hui's ferocious face under the blood-red light.

Is this still Yin Hui?
After only a moment's hesitation, Ding Xiuyuan and his companion's attacks engulfed Yin Hui's figure.

But at that moment, a violent explosion suddenly occurred where Yin Hui was located.

The yin energy generated by the explosion condensed into countless cold, sharp spikes, which shot out in all directions throughout the room.

Li Gongyang was still in a daze and reacted a little slowly, resulting in him being pierced by more than a dozen sharp thorns.

Snapped!
A hand grabbed him and shielded him behind it.

It's Zhao Haoran!

Zhao Haoran and Ding Xiuyuan had already made preparations.

Ding Xiuyuan was in front, using his Qi and Blood Furnace to block the sharp spikes of Yin Qi.

Zhao Haoran then pulled Li Gongyang to stand behind Ding Xiuyuan, who was acting as a shield.

Soon, when the whistling sound of the spikes disappeared, the three looked back at the second floor and found that Yin Hui and the four colorful roosters had vanished.

The entire second floor became empty.

Just then, the smoke from the still-burning incense stick in Zhao Haoran's hand drifted towards the stairs, all the way to the third floor.

"Let's go find the real body!"

Ding Xiuyuan and his companion took the lead and charged straight ahead.

Li Gongyang watched the two leave, ignoring the numbness coming from the place where he had been stabbed. At this moment, he felt that he had overlooked something.
correct!

Last night, he saw more than just one ghost!
Moreover, the one that attacked him was not a male ghost, but a female ghost!
"Watch out, there's another malevolent spirit!"

Li Gongyang chased after him, and as soon as he reached the third floor, he saw a scene that left him speechless.

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran were both hanging from the ceiling, having hanged themselves!

wrong!

Two fire crows appeared around Li Gongyang's body and rushed straight at the two figures hanging from the ceiling, shattering them!

The two figures on the ceiling disappeared, but Li Gongyang found that he was having difficulty breathing.

He reached down and touched his neck; there was something new there!
It's a rope!
Suddenly, his neck tightened, and Li Gongyang was pulled up and hoisted to the ceiling.

He held the rope around his neck with one hand and the jar in the other. In his line of sight, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran were attacking a blood-red figure together.

Meanwhile, other ghosts lurking in the blood mist were constantly attacking the two of them.

It was precisely because of those sinister entanglements that Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran could not focus wholeheartedly on dealing with that blood shadow.

The situation has reached a stalemate!
This stalemate, if it continues, is not in the best interest of humanity!
I need help!
Li Gongyang endured the discomfort and transformed into the form of a crow, freeing himself from the ropes.

Just as he was about to rush over, he caught a glimpse of four figures trailing five-colored flames out of the corner of his eye!
If it's not the rooster from Zhuyeshi Town, then what is it?
The four roosters rushed out from behind him and crashed directly into the ghosts surrounding Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran.

Compared to the difficulty of dealing with 'Yin Hui' on the second floor, the roosters that rushed into those ghostly creatures could tear a figure apart with a single claw and peck.

"Can they continue to coalesce?"

Li Gongyang was taken aback.

According to what he knew, once the rooster that had gathered in Candlestone Town was destroyed, Candlestone Town itself would also be destroyed.

Those four roosters were clearly taken away by that swarm of thorns, so how did they reappear?

Li Gongyang suddenly realized the meaning of the description of 'strengthening the protective object'.

Just then, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran, who had been given a chance to catch their breath because of the rooster's appearance, began their counterattack.

Seeing this, Li Gongyang decided to give the two another helping hand.

The raven feather raincoat spread out from his body, transforming into dozens of fire crows.

The discomfort from repeatedly using the Raven Feather Raincoat ability caused Li Gongyang a slight headache, but he still shot all the fire crows towards the blood shadow.

A series of booming explosions occurred.

Blood Shadow was forced to retreat as if struck by a barrage of fireballs.

Following the fire crow were two thick flames of blood and energy.

The two flames of blood energy enveloped the fire crow and the blood shadow, intending to crush the blood shadow directly!
Just then, Li Gongyang saw the ghosts around him who had been attacked by the rooster transform into shadows and shoot towards the blood shadow.

With the addition of those sinister figures, the aura of the blood shadow within the flames of qi and blood became chilling once more.

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran exchanged a glance, and without giving Xueying a chance, the six Yang Stones were thrown into the two Qi and Blood Furnaces.

In an instant, a flame of blood energy, more than twice the size, surged out of the furnace, and in the blink of an eye, the blood shadow was obliterated by the flame of blood energy.

The sound of heavy breathing came from the third floor.

While keeping a watchful eye out for any possible ghosts, Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran poured Dihuang pills into their mouths.

Suddenly, the midday sun shone through the window into the room on the third floor.

The darkness faded, and warmth spread throughout the three of them.

Ding Xiuyuan and Zhao Haoran paused for a moment, and then immediately lit cigarettes and incense sticks again.

Soon, the two found a bloodstained rope in a room on the third floor.

Li Gongyang looked at the rope, and suddenly, he felt a cold aura appear in his body, which swept over his entire body in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, his vision blurred.

Clap!

The Soul-Sealing Altar fell and shattered.

Following closely behind the Soul Sealing Altar was the sound of Li Gongyang's stiff body collapsing to the ground.

Looking at the two people rushing towards him, and at the fragments of the Soul Sealing Altar, Li Gongyang closed his eyes with a sigh.
