When Zhang Yan was in the Qi-entraining realm, the things that Zhang Yan could change with the Wanxiang Pearl were at most mundane objects with some spirituality. But now that he has entered the Xuanmai realm, the things that the Wanxiang Pearl can change are different. For example, at this moment, it can help him
At the critical moment, the big red shield blocked 90% of the power of the Soul Explosion: Qiankun.
Qiankun is already a magic weapon. Strictly speaking, it is the best among low-grade magic weapons. It has a very good defensive effect against direct or soul and energy attacks.
In fact, the mahogany sword that Zhang Yan has always used easily can be regarded as a magic weapon, relying on the particularity of its material. But compared with a real magic weapon, its adaptability is still poor. The reason why Zhang Yan is still here
Using it, I haven't found a suitable main magic weapon for him to replace yet.
The Qiankun Shield was discovered by Zhang Yan from miscellaneous information about the weapon refining of Wanxiang Pearl when he was looking for the main magic weapon. Because of its huge shield surface, he remembered it deeply. Unexpectedly, he relied on this thing to save his life.
"Hiss..." Zhang Yan curled up. After more than ten breaths, he could no longer feel the impact of the big shield in his hand, and then slowly relaxed. He suddenly felt soreness in the muscles of both arms, and there was even more burning pain in his back.
.The force of the impact just now threw him several feet away, and he hit him right on a rock. His back was probably bruised now.
Not only was he feeling physically uncomfortable, but a full 40% of the spiritual energy in his body was also drained away by the Qiankun Shield in just a few breaths, in order to activate the maximum defense effect to withstand the powerful impact of the Soul Explosion.
In fact, Zhang Yan also secretly thought that he was lucky. Because the soul of the ghost child was not condensed like the soul blast method recorded in Longhu Mountain Gate, but was very scattered, so that the power of the soul blast did not focus on him. This
This allowed him to survive relatively unscathed despite being poorly prepared.
After putting away the Qiankun Shield and getting up from the ground, what he saw was a pit that was overturned by the force of the explosion. There was no trace of the ghost child anymore.
Zhang Yan had a cold face and did not stay here any longer. Instead, he quickly left the place and continued to use the Qi Condensing Talisman to cover his aura.
However, Zhang Yan did not go far, but chose a small forest on the only way from Langyuan City to the mass graves to hide. He also wanted to see if the ghost child's soul would be destroyed in the city.
There will be a response later.
At the same time, Zhang Yan was also sorting out what happened tonight in his mind. Because there were too many surprises, he had to think carefully about everything on this trip tonight.
At first glance, it seemed that Zhang Yan had suffered a big loss tonight. Not only did he lose a wild ghost but also a fierce ghost. He didn't gain any of the merits that the two ghosts should have had. He just watched the opponent's soul disappear. In addition, he also spent four dollars.
He has gained spiritual energy and suffered minor injuries. But in fact, if you look at it all, it is not necessarily a loss, at least it is not that big.
First of all, Zhang Yan discovered a possible reason for the scarcity of ghosts around Langyuan City due to a series of accidents tonight. That is that the ghosts here were either hunted by the three in Wu Mansion, or most of them ran away.
Yes, because it is too dangerous here.
In Zhang Yan's view, the situation of ghosts in Langyuan City is definitely not a normal phenomenon, but there must be strategic active forces to achieve it, that is, the three fierce ghosts hidden in Wu Mansion. They even surrounded Langyuan City.
Every aspect that can produce ghosts is clearly understood. They are harvested regularly like harvesting crops. They also know the execution time of the death row prisoners and are waiting there early.
Secondly, there are the last words left by the ghost child.
"It mentioned "Wang". Does it refer to a certain person named Wang, or is it just a literal meaning?" Zhang Yan found a tree branch in the woods slightly close to the official road, climbed up and rested his arms on it, thinking in his mind
Thinking about the half of the words left by the ghost child.
If it means the former one, does that mean that there really are people in this world who can practice the same methods as Zhang Yan to deal with ghosts?
If it means the latter, it means that there is a ghost king controlling the ghost child, and the same is very likely true for the other two ghosts who were hiding in Wu Mansion and have not come out.
No matter which one, it opened up a new way of thinking for Zhang Yan. He used to treat the ghosts in the wilderness with a straggler attitude, but now it seems that he thinks too simply.
With Zhang Yan's cultivation and methods at this time, he would have no problem dealing with a few powerful ghosts, but if he faced the Ghost King, it would be hard to say. You can't just rely on "Divine Descending Technique" to risk your life every time, right?
Zhang Yan's life is now in short supply.
At the end of that sentence, it should be talking about the relationship between the "king" and the Wu family. The ghost boy only had time to say the word "servant". The pronunciation was a bit out of tune. Is it "servant" or "friend"? This really doesn't matter.
It's easy to say. Zhang Yan turned around in his mind several times and finally came up with only two possibilities, either a "servant" or a "friend".
But whether they are servants or friends, it shows that the Wu family has a direct relationship with the "king". It is also because of this relationship that they hide the three evil ghosts in their own mansion. Even a series of behaviors of the three evil ghosts
It's possible that the Wu family is providing clues, such as the time and place of the death row prisoner's execution.
"Tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect this! The Wu family... actually has something to do with ghosts, and it's unusual for the relationship to go deep into this family." Zhang Yan sighed in his heart.
Is this considered the Wu family’s pigtail?
Even if it doesn't count, it doesn't seem to count. Because ghosts are not good things, but enemies of living beings. The Wu family has no clear collusion with ghosts. In Taoist terms, it means they have entered the evil way and should be eradicated to support justice. But here
This is the Wild Sky Realm, and there is almost no concept of ghosts here. At least the level that Zhang Yan is now exposed to knows nothing about ghosts. So this little pigtail doesn't seem to be that easy to use.
But at least one thing was clear to Zhang Yan at this time. That was that the Wu family was definitely not an ordinary-looking official family, and there was something sinister hidden inside.
Zhang Yan has always regarded the Wu family as life and death enemies, and there is no room for reconciliation between them. The main reason why they seem to be "in peace" now is the intervention of the city guard Zhou Cang.
Now that we have discovered that the Wu family's methods are more than what they seem, is it possible to control ghosts and kill people? It's hard to say.
The last point is that the ghost child's situation when its soul exploded was obviously not the result of its own initiative or its own desire for the soul explosion. It was the result of a red strange light incited from its soul body.
Zhang Yan guessed that the red light was some kind of method used by the "King" to remain in the ghost child's body. Once the ghost child touched a specific situation, such as telling something about the "King", the method would explode.
, the main purpose is to silence the enemy, and the secondary purpose is to kill the enemy.
This method can basically determine that it is not a warrior's combat skill or the like.
But, is it specifically a magic method or a ghost cultivation method? Zhang Yan is not sure yet.
