“It seems that we can’t completely relax our vigilance yet.” Luo Chen said solemnly.
Qingshuang clenched her fists, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes: “In this case, we can’t sit idly by and do nothing. We must find the source of this ominous atmosphere as soon as possible.”
Feng Qing nodded and agreed: “Maybe we can visit the hidden master mentioned in the letter to learn more about him.”
The three of them decided to set off to find the hidden master after the Tianji Pavilion’s support team was arranged.
While waiting, they decided to ask around the town to see if anyone had any clues about the ominous presence.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang changed into casual clothes and walked out of the inn with Feng Qing.
The people in the small town seemed to have become accustomed to the existence of immortal cultivators, and they cast curious and friendly glances at Luochen and the others.
They first came to a teahouse, where many local residents gathered, making it a good place to inquire about news.
The three of them found a corner to sit down and ordered a few cups of tea.
“Excuse me, has anything strange happened in the town recently?” Luo Chen asked the teahouse owner.
The boss was a middle-aged man. He put down the teapot in his hand, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: “To say it’s strange, there are indeed some things that make people confused recently. For example, the water in the old well at the east end of the town has become turbid recently. , and the smell of the well water has become a little strange.”
Qingshuang raised her eyebrows: “Oh? This is really strange. Can we go and take a look?”
“Of course. If you are interested, I will take you there right now.” The boss said enthusiastically.
The three of them followed the boss to the old well at the east end of the town.
The well water was indeed, as the boss said, extremely turbid and exuded a faint fishy smell.
Luo Chen knelt down, dipped some well water with his fingers, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, then frowned: “There seems to be a demonic aura in this water.”
“Devil energy?” Feng Qing and Qing Shuang exclaimed in unison.
“Yes, although this demonic energy is weak, it does exist.” Luo Chen said with certainty.
The three of them exchanged glances, and they all understood that the abnormality in this old well was probably related to the ominous atmosphere mentioned in the letter.
“We need to investigate clearly where this demonic energy comes from.” Qingshuang said seriously.
Luo Chen nodded: “We will split up. I will be responsible for investigating the source of the well water. Qingshuang, you go to the town to find out more information. Feng Qing will be responsible for protecting the safety of the townspeople, just in case.”
Qingshuang and Fengqing both agreed, so the three of them split up.
Luochen followed the flow of the well water to a dense forest outside the town.
The dense forest was filled with mist, making it look particularly eerie.
He carefully went deep into the jungle, trying to find the source of the evil spirit.
Qingshuang asked around the town. As Tianji Pavilion, she asked the townspeople if anyone had seen anyone suspicious recently or if anything unusual had happened.
Although the townspeople were in awe of the immortal cultivators, they still told Qingshuang the information they knew.
Feng Qing was patrolling the town. He used talismans to set up warning arrays in every corner of the town to prevent members of the magic organization from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.
Luochen walked through the dense forest for a long time, and finally found an abnormality in a hidden valley.
There is an abandoned mine in the valley, and the entrance of the cave exudes a strong demonic aura.
He approached cautiously and found that there seemed to be movement in the mine.
Qingshuang found some clues in the town. Some townspeople mentioned that a group of mysterious outsiders had recently appeared in the dense forest outside the town.
She immediately realized that this might be related to the mine discovered by Luochen.
After Feng Qing set up a magic circle in the town, he also noticed Qing Shuang’s movements.
He decided to go to the dense forest and join Luochen and Qingshuang.
The three finally met outside the mine, and they decided to enter the mine together to explore the source of the evil energy.
The mine was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a suffocating stench.
They carefully went deep into the mine, and the deeper they went, the stronger the evil spirit became.
Deep in the mine, they discovered a huge altar, with a spar emitting dark red light placed in the center of the altar.
Around the spar, several men in black were chanting spells in a low voice.
“It seems that we have found the source of the demonic energy.” Luo Chen said in a low voice.
Qing Shuang and Feng Qing also watched the man in black in front of them warily.
They knew a battle was inevitable.
The men in black seemed to be aware of the arrival of Luochen and the others. They stopped chanting the curse and turned around, their eyes full of hostility.
“You immortal cultivators, how dare you come here to ruin our plans!” The leader of the men in black yelled angrily.
Luo Chen sneered: “Sabotage your plan? What you are doing here is obviously to harm the people nearby!”
The two sides are at war with each other, and a fierce battle is about to begin.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang quickly drew their weapons, while Feng Qing began to prepare the talisman.
The men in black were not to be outdone. They summoned their magical weapons one after another and prepared to fight.
The battle was about to break out. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang relied on their tacit cooperation to engage in a fierce confrontation with the man in black.
Feng Qing assisted by using talisman paper to create various spell effects to interfere with the actions of the man in black.
The mine echoed with the sound of metal clashing and the whisper of curses. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were like two bolts of lightning, shuttling between the men in black. Their swordsmanship was sharp and precise, and every swing was accompanied by the movement of the man in black. Scream.
Feng Qing’s talisman paper was like a butterfly flying in the sky, sometimes turning into a fireball, sometimes turning into an ice arrow, providing strong support for Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.
“You cultivators are really overestimating your own abilities!” The leading black-clothed man roared, and a black long sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and the sword body exuded a chilling black air.
Luo Chen sneered, and his body shook, avoiding the attack of the leader of the black-clothed man. At the same time, he swung his sword back, and the tip of the sword drew a silver arc, pointing directly at the opponent’s throat.
Qing Shuang took the opportunity to go around behind the black-clothed man, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out like a spirit snake, directly hitting the opponent’s vitals.
Seeing this, Feng Qing quickly took out a golden talisman paper from his sleeve, muttered something in his mouth, and the talisman paper turned into a golden light and flew towards the leader of the black-clothed man.
The golden light exploded in the air and turned into a huge net, trapping the leader of the black-clothed man in it.
“Do you think you can trap me like this?” The leader of the men in black laughed wildly, and the golden net was torn apart when he swung his black sword.
The black air on his body became more and more intense, as if it was going to swallow up the entire mine.
Seeing this, Luo Chen knew that he had to fight quickly, and he shouted: “Qingshuang, Fengqing, let’s work together to cast the ‘Heavenly Net’!”
The three of them quickly stood in a triangle, with Luo Chen in the middle, Qingshuang and Fengqing standing on his left and right sides respectively.
They raised their weapons above their heads at the same time, chanting ancient spells.
A powerful spiritual power surged from them and gathered into a dazzling light.
In the light, a huge magic circle slowly unfolded, covering the leader of the men in black and the men in black around him.
In the magic circle, countless light arrows poured down like a rainstorm. The leader of the men in black waved his black sword and tried to resist, but the light arrows seemed endless and eventually defeated them all.
The battle was over, and the mine returned to peace.
Although Luo Chen and the other two looked a little tired, their eyes were shining with victory.
They walked to the altar, and Luo Chen gently touched the crystal stone emitting dark red light with the tip of his sword. The crystal stone made a whine and then turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated.
“It seems that the source of this ominous aura has been completely destroyed by us.” Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief and said.
Feng Qing nodded and began to check the surroundings of the mine to ensure that there were no missed dangers.
“We still need to clean up this place thoroughly to prevent the demonic energy from gathering again.”
Luo Chen looked around and said in a deep voice: “Yes, we can’t let this happen again, but we still need to find the hidden master to learn more about the accomplices of the Thousand Faces Master.”
The three decided to continue their journey after cleaning up the mine.
In the following days, Luo Chen, Qingshuang and Feng Qing continued to inquire about the news in the town, while waiting for the support team of Tianji Pavilion to arrive.
They helped the townspeople solve some minor problems and won the respect and gratitude of the townspeople.
Finally, on a sunny morning, the support team of Tianji Pavilion arrived in the town.
The team included not only the elite disciples of Tianji Pavilion, but also several elders with profound cultivation.
Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Feng Qing had a detailed exchange with the leader of the support team, reporting the situations they found and the actions they took one by one.
The leader of the support team was a white-haired old man named He Tu. After listening to the report of Luo Chen and others, he frowned and said after a moment of silence: “You did a good job, but the means of the magic organization are endless. We can’t take it lightly. I will let the disciples search this mine carefully to ensure that there are no hidden dangers missed.”
He Tu turned around and gave a few instructions to the disciples around him. The disciples immediately took the order and began to search and clean up the mine thoroughly.
Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Feng Qing were invited by He Tu to the temporary tent to discuss the next plan in detail.
“According to your description, the demonic energy in this mine is extraordinary. I’m afraid there is a master behind it.” He Tu said slowly, with a trace of worry in his eyes.
Qingshuang nodded, and then said: “We really need to find that hidden master. He may know more about the Thousand Faces Master.”
“Thousand Faces Master?” He Tu raised his eyebrows and looked a little surprised. “Are you sure it’s the Thousand Faces Master?”
Luo Chen explained: “The crystals we found in the mine and the suspicious people we met in the town before are all related to the Thousand Faces Master. As far as we know, the Thousand Faces Master is good at transformation and can disguise himself as anyone, and his disciples are also good at using various evil arts.”
He Tu pondered for a while, then said: “The Thousand Faces Master is an extremely dangerous person in the magic world. , his disciples are all over the world, and they act in secret. If he is really active in this area, then the challenge we face will be very severe. “
Feng Qing interrupted, “We have notified the Tianji Pavilion. I believe that more support will arrive soon. Before that, should we continue to investigate in the town to see if we can find more clues?”
He Tu nodded, “Yes, you continue to investigate in the town, but you must also be careful. The disciples of the Thousand Faces Master may have mixed into the townspeople, so you must be vigilant.”
Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Feng Qing took the order to leave the tent and return to the town again.
They decided to act separately in order to collect information more efficiently.
Luo Chen was responsible for the eastern part of the town, Qing Shuang was responsible for the western part, and Feng Qing was responsible for the central area of the town.
Luo Chen walked slowly on the streets of the East District. He carefully observed every town resident passing by, trying to find something suspicious.
Suddenly, he noticed a ragged beggar sitting at the door of a store, with an unusual sharpness in his eyes.
Luo Chen walked up and asked softly: “Brother, how long have you been here?”
The beggar raised his head and answered in a hoarse voice: “I have been here for several days. The people here are very kind to me. Someone gives me food every day.”
Luo Chen nodded, and then asked casually: “Has there been any strange things in the town recently?”
The beggar’s eyes flickered, and then whispered: “Strange things? Well, a few nights ago, I saw a few men in black hurriedly coming back from outside the town. They looked very nervous.”
Luo Chen’s heart moved, and he continued to ask: “Do you know where they went?”
The beggar shook his head: “I don’t know much about this. They disappeared into the night very quickly.”
Luo Chen thanked the beggar for the information, and then turned and left.
He decided to tell Qingshuang and Fengqing about this clue to see if they also found anything.
At the same time, Qingshuang also found some anomalies on the streets of the West District.
She noticed an old woman selling vegetables. Although she looked amiable, she had some strange herbs in her basket.
Qingshuang walked up and asked with a smile: “Old man, where did you pick these herbs from?”
The old woman raised her head, a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes, but soon returned to a kind expression: “Oh, these herbs are planted by myself, just on the hillside outside the town.”
Qingshuang nodded, and then asked casually: “Have you seen some strangers haunting the town?”
The old woman hesitated for a moment, then whispered: “A few nights ago, I saw a few men in black coming back from outside the town, they looked very mysterious.”
Qingshuang’s heart moved, and she realized that this clue might be related to the men in black mentioned by the beggars found by Luo Chen.
She decided to tell Luo Chen and Feng Qing this information.
Feng Qing also found some clues in the square in the center of the town.
He noticed a vendor selling candied haws. Although he looked very happy, his eyes revealed a subtle cunning.
Feng Qing walked up to him, bought a string of candied haws, and then asked casually: “Little brother, how long have you been selling candied haws here?”
The vendor smiled and replied: “I have been selling it for several years. People in the town like my candied haws very much.”
