Swords emerge from the human world

Chapter 67: On-the-spot counterattack, treasure bag in hand.

In a daze, Chen Jin felt inexplicably anxious and uncomfortable.

It felt like a mosquito suddenly flew in while I was sleeping soundly, buzzing incessantly in my ear, impossible to shake off or swat away.

The mosquito, taking advantage of the situation, landed on my eyelid and began to bite.

He suddenly realized something was wrong, but his eyelids felt as heavy as if they had been soaked in water, and he couldn't open them for a moment.

……

Mr. Gu visualized Chen Jin's portrait and found a breakthrough. Using his eyes as a window, he suddenly burst in.

This is the technique of "Dream-Capturing Soul," which can devour the soul of the target without anyone noticing, turning them into an idiot or a madman.

They can even seize control of one's mind and turn him into a puppet to be driven around; that's truly remarkable.

Mr. Gu seemed quite excited, thinking that the soul of a scholar must be very delicious and nutritious.

He burst in excitedly, like a robber breaking into a house.

But the next moment, darkness fell before their eyes, and a divine being appeared.

This god had a black face, a bushy beard, thick eyebrows, and leopard-like eyes. He roared angrily, "What kind of evil sorcerer dares to harm people? Die!"

Cut it down with one sword.

"what!"

Mr. Gu's thoughts were instantly shattered into dust and vanished into nothingness.

At the same time, Chen Jin was finally freed, and he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

He quickly looked up at the Kui Xing kicking the Dipper lamp on the table and saw that cracks had appeared on the surface of the Kui Xing statue, obviously caused by the damage after it had just displayed its power.

"Someone is trying to harm me!"

He was on guard, holding a short blade, and cautiously went out to investigate.

……

"what!"

Inside room number seven of the Jiazi building, Mr. Gu was struck as if by a heavy blow, clutching his head and letting out a painful howl: "How is this possible? What was that?"

Suddenly looking up, I saw blood dripping from my eyes and nose, making me look extremely ferocious and terrifying.

The portrait placed in front of him suddenly began to smoke and turned to ashes in an instant.

The spell has been broken.

Wow!

He couldn't help but vomit another mouthful of blood. His emaciated body trembled uncontrollably, and he soon collapsed, unable to move any further.

Unorthodox practices, whether learned or used, all have side effects to some extent, and once you start practicing them, there's no going back.

Such insidious magic would have a backlash far greater than usual, not to mention that the mighty sword strike of the God of the Divine Star directly severed his life force.

In the dead of night, the commotion naturally alerted those around them, but the screams were so shrill and eerie that no one dared to come out to investigate. They all wrapped themselves tightly in their blankets and cowered away.

As for the matter of the Ghost Realm, Shi Qifeng was also affected and fell into a deep sleep, never waking up.

Chen Jin walked down the dimly lit corridor, used his short blade to pry open the simple door latch, and went inside.

Inside, a white lantern casts a red glow, creating a wonderful atmosphere.

But why would he be afraid? He quickly took in the situation inside the room and couldn't help but show a strange expression.

First, confirm whether Mr. Gu is alive or dead.

Seeing that he was bleeding from all seven orifices and his emaciated face was contorted, he was as dead as could be.

In fact, Chen Jin had never met the other party and did not know their identity or background, but he was quick-witted and could guess a few things.

After a moment of surprise, he quickly searched the area and found only a dusty cloth bag, no bigger than the palm of his hand, quite inconspicuous. It felt light and seemed empty. When he tried to pull it open, he couldn't.

The more this is the case, the more suspicious it seems.

Never mind, I'll just take it first.

After completing the search, he pondered for a moment, then tiptoed out, closed the door behind him, and returned to his own room.

He took out the cloth bag under the lamp, repeatedly touching it and sensing the strangeness of the fabric. He then activated his spiritual vision. Buzz!
With a slight click, black wisps appeared around the opening, resembling a special hemp rope.

Sensing the outsider's gaze, the black energy erupted, instantly transforming into a venomous snake as thick as a finger, coiled there, head raised, hissing, poised to attack at any moment.

Chen Jin was not surprised but delighted, and immediately understood.

This unassuming cloth bag is actually a storage bag, commonly known as a "storage bag".

The "Treatise on the Investigation of Things in the Five Elements" provides relevant information, stating that the Pot Heaven Bag is a type of magical artifact. Once successfully crafted, it can create a space to store various things, but it cannot store living creatures.

The size of the bags varies depending on their grade.

In fact, this method originated from the divine technique of "Hutian". The form of loading is not limited to bags. It can also be developed on jewelry, or even formed directly in the sleeves.

In comparison, the bag form is the most common and also the easiest to make.

That black, venomous snake was actually a restriction, equivalent to a lock in reality.

Only the owner of the storage bag has the key.

Of course, others can also use force to unlock the door.

It's very simple, just smash the lock.

The prerequisite is having the ability and means to break the lock.

Chen Jin was clearly at a loss, quite frustrated, as he faced the "venomous snake" coiled at the mouth.

The person who possesses a storage bag is obviously a cultivator.

A cultivator's entire possessions, including gold, silver, and other valuables, would certainly be packed in bags; they would never be poor, and might even have magical manuals or similar items.

Getting any one of these items is a good gain.

Not to mention the bag itself, which is a highly practical treasure.

It's a pity I can't open this blind box; I can only look at the bag and sigh.

He studied the "Treatise on the Investigation of the Five Elements" and knew the method of refining, but the problem was that his magical power was weak and lacked power. When it exceeded his ability, there was no way to solve it.

If you're not careful, you might get injured by the opponent's restrictions, which would be a huge loss.

Cultivating one's spiritual practice is the foundation.

Without a solid foundation, everything else is in vain.

There was no other way but to put it away for the time being and start resting with my eyes closed.

Time passed, and the next morning, the shopkeeper, along with several waiters, went upstairs to check. Upon seeing the dead Mr. Gu, they jumped up in shock.

For those who run a business, this is the situation they fear most.

Mr. Gu had no external injuries, but died from bleeding from all seven orifices. It is unknown whether it was due to poisoning or a sudden illness.

Even worse, they were penniless and couldn't find any identification documents.

I didn't pay a single penny when I checked into the hotel last night.

The innkeeper was frightened by his appearance and had no choice but to book a superior room, which made him very angry.

The thought of someone dying violently in their room is considered even more ominous.

A waiter asked if he should report the incident to the authorities, and was immediately slapped.

The shopkeeper angrily said, "Why report to the authorities? Aren't you troubled enough? Quickly wrap it up in a straw mat, take it to the mountain, dig a hole, and bury it. Remember, don't make a fuss."

The news couldn't be kept secret, given the large number of guests on the same floor. However, no one wanted to meddle; everyone quickly left, fearing legal trouble. They secretly resolved never to stay at the Yuelai Inn again.

Upon hearing this, Shi Qifeng, with his seasoned experience, immediately sensed the danger and came to ask Chen Jin.

Chen Jin replied, "They were probably sent by Magistrate Zhao, but the matter has been resolved."

Upon hearing this, Shi Qifeng felt both annoyed that he had slept too soundly the night before and even more admiring of Chen Jin.

Chen Jin then said, "We shouldn't stay here any longer, let's leave quickly."

"it is good."
