Chapter 3460 [Devil Factor]

[Forbidden Tool], according to legend, it possesses many powerful and mysterious powers, which will cause the user to fall into the evil path and eventually become a horrible monster that loses all humanity.

The legend about the horrific disaster caused by obtaining the [Forbidden Tool] has always been circulated among the human race. When the [Forbidden Tool] came out, people scrambled to grab it and rivers of blood flowed, just like the peerless martial arts that appeared in the vernacular novels.

Tan Tai Pingjing looked at Lin Youde meaningfully at this moment, "It seems that you were able to escape from the pursuit of the [Chaoge] Holy Land in one piece, not just relying on the power of the Mad Battle Dao."

Lin Youde is the host of the [Forbidden Tool], so it is completely understandable that this super dark horse from Xiazhou broke the holy land system in a brutal way.

"Uncle, have you been corroded by the evil spirit of the [Forbidden Tool]?" Lin SIR was shocked. There are many legends about the [Forbidden Tool] circulating among the people, especially that the [Forbidden Tool] carries a terrifying evil spirit that will infect the host and turn him into a demon.

"The evil spirit on the Wolf God Mask has actually been purified due to some things that happened before." Lin Youde said with a slight sigh: "My body is not corroded by evil spirit... but by something more terrifying. I call it the Devil Factor."

"Devil...factor?"

"That's right." Lin Youde nodded. "Each [Forbidden Tool] is actually made from a [Demon Fragment] fused with the soul of an unparalleled ferocious beast. The ferocious beast was killed in a moment of extreme anger and despair, and its soul was filled with a lot of hateful power, which caused the [Forbidden Tool] to be born with terrifying hostility. Ordinary [Forbidden Tool] will be corrupted by the hostility if it cannot resist the erosion of the beast soul."

“Uncle, didn’t you say that the hostility of [Wolf God Mask] has been purified?” Lin SIR was puzzled.

"Yes." Lin Youde said solemnly, "But because of the demon turmoil in Kunlun City this time, the demon power hidden in the forbidden tool has been completely activated. In fact, the demon factor in the forbidden tool and the beast soul are like a mutually restraining relationship. After the Wolf God Mask is purified, the beast soul will naturally be unable to suppress the power of the demon factor... If the demon factor is still in a calm state, it will be fine. Once it is activated and loses its suppression, the erosion of the host will be even more serious."

"Then... how about injecting the [Forbidden Tool] with evil spirit again? Or smelting a beast soul?" Lin SIR opened his mind, but found that the immortal was looking at him strangely at this time, "...Is it not possible?"

"Not really." The Immortal blinked his eyes, "I just didn't expect that you would say this... It seems that the Void Saint Realm still has something to offer?"

"..." Lin SIR forgave her and said thoughtfully: "So, this is actually feasible?"

"Not feasible." Tan Tai calmly shook his head, "Or rather, it's not feasible now."

"Why is this?" SIR Lin was stunned.

Lin Youde smiled bitterly and said, "We... at least I have no way to find a beast with enough power to suppress the [Wolf God Mask]. Maybe it could still be found in the [Spirit Beast Realm] in the past, but now the [Spirit Beast Realm] has been merged into the [Spirit Realm]. The difficulty of taming beasts has increased several times. Perhaps the profession of beastmaster will soon decline."

"Most of the powerful beasts are in the depths of the [Spiritual Beast Realm]..." Lin SIR said helplessly: "This is indeed a problem. It is difficult to refine the evil spirit... Then, uncle, how about taking the [Forbidden Tool] out of your body? But if you do this, will you be in danger?"

"That's why I asked you to come." Lin Youde pleaded with a hint of pleading, "You are a virtual saint of the human race, and I can't think of anyone more suitable than you. As for the danger, don't worry. Ever since the evil spirit of the [Wolf God Mask] was purified, I have been consciously trying to cut off ties with the [Wolf God Mask]. Once you pull it out of my body, the damage to me won't be great. I just need to rest for a while. Anyway, I'm staying here to guard the cemetery, and no one will bother me on weekdays."

"There is no time to lose." Lin SIR said directly.

The Immortal suddenly said, "Don't worry about this little bit of time. You've been tired from all the work, so you should rest for a night. This is a matter related to the [Forbidden Tool], so you can't be careless. It's best to conserve your energy."

——Does this journey here feel like a vacation?

Mr. Lin did not say anything.

The Immortal looked at Lin Youde again and said sternly, "Senior Lin, extracting the [Forbidden Tool] is no small matter. It may cause a lot of noise... In order to avoid unnecessary attention, if you trust me, I can make some arrangements around to cover up the traces here."

Lin Youde nodded, "As expected of you, you are the most outstanding person in the Tantai family. You have considered everything very carefully. Let's do as you say."

The immortal took out 100 small golden flags from his storage bracelet and distributed 36 of them to Lin Youde. "Senior, please insert these flags according to the number of 36 Tiangang. We will arrange the rest."

Lin Youde was surprised. Each of these small flags was not an ordinary thing. One hundred and eight of them were obviously a set. They were extremely precious. It was obvious that they were not just talk... He hesitated for a moment, and then called out again, "Wenwen."

A little girl in a white dress floated out from the ground at this time.

Mr. Lin has seen many ghosts, but this is the first time he has met someone like Wenwen.

The Immortal was surprised and asked, "This child is almost a ghost cultivator, right? Are you really planning to send her into reincarnation? If she becomes a ghost cultivator, she can always accompany you."

Lin Youde shook his head. "In the current [human world], there is not much room for Wenwen to survive. Humans and ghosts have different paths. Reincarnation as a human is her destiny."

Tan Tai was not much calmer. He gave Lin Sir a look and said directly, "Let's go. There are still many things to do in the second half of the night. Arranging the formation is not just about planting flags."

As she spoke, she distributed the remaining flags to Lin SIR, instructed her on how to arrange them, and then left first with Tan Tai Wuque.

Fei Jing is a master in this area, so naturally, SIR Lin follows her advice.

"Uncle, hurry up and finish the preparations. Maybe I can still chat with you later in the night." Lin SIR greeted him and went in another direction.

At Lin Youde's signal, Wenwen quickly followed - as a guide.

……

"Do you think there's something wrong with Lin Youde?"

Tan Tai Wu Que and the Immortal stopped at a recessed spot in the back mountain... from here one could see most of the cemetery.

"If he really just wants to pull out the [forbidden tool], then there is naturally no problem." The Immortal casually swung out a few sword energies, twisted the soil on the ground, and then inserted a flag into it.

But she did not leave. Instead, she had an idea and grabbed a handful of mud from the ground and examined it carefully.

"What is this?" Tan Tai Wu Que asked puzzledly.

The soil is cold and black in color, but surprisingly it emits a faint fragrance.

"Corpse mud..." The Immortal seemed to be thinking about something.

Tan Tai Wu Que thought for a moment and said, "It seems that Lin Youde's daughter was forced to stay by his side by using the forbidden technique of raising ghosts. This mausoleum must have been deliberately arranged by him so that his daughter can have space to move around."

"Maybe." The immortal did not comment, then gave some flags to Tan Tai Wuque and asked her to arrange them.

She sat alone in this valley, enjoying the evening breeze, and summoned the Book of Heaven and Earth... The pages turned over, but no matter how she checked, there was always a mist on the pages.

"It still doesn't work..."

Ever since the division of the [Six Realms], the power of the [Heaven and Earth] Book seemed to be sealed... This made Tan Tai Pingjing suddenly feel uneasy, as if he had suddenly become blind.

As for the Feng Shui technique inherited from the Tan Tai family - the Sky-Peeking Chapter, it was completely useless because of the division of the [Six Realms] and the shifting of the stars - unless she could reposition the stars and correct all the parameters.

But this is obviously not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time.

"Bai Jun." She suddenly called out.

There was no movement around, so the immortal shouted again.

This time, the space surged implicitly, and the adult woman holding a pipe walked out with a hint of impatience.

"Please help me observe Lin Youde." The immortal said directly.

Bai Jun was unmoved and said indifferently: "You really think I'm doing you a favor?"

The immortal said calmly: "I don't know what Lin Youde is planning behind the scenes, but if something happens and ends up harming Lin Feng, and you have to take action, you will still be in trouble. Why not solve it before you get into trouble?"

Bai Jun thought for a moment and said, "That guy doesn't seem to completely trust Lin Youde, otherwise he wouldn't have cooperated with you just now."

Tan Tai said calmly: "He looks stupid, but he is not really stupid."

Bai Jun shrugged and said disappear if he said so... She just sensed it briefly just now and found that there was no one who could fight in this [Huoyun City].

Unless someone can hide from her detection - but is this possible?
……

……

...For Raphael, [Infinite City] was still a very novel place - apart from the dirtiness and messiness here, the crowded living environment brought a kind of lively atmosphere that she had never felt before.

She and Luda walked on the road that was like a gap, where they would occasionally bump into pedestrians, and they were carrying all kinds of exotic snacks in their hands.

I've only been here for over an hour and I've already encountered a thief five times.

Ruda's handling of the matter also opened Raphael's eyes - basically, the thief took her place, and then Ruda stole from the thief, and after a few rounds, he actually made a lot of money.

"Have you been to this place before?" Raphael asked curiously.

Master Lu had actually been here once before. He came here to look for some old items - because [Infinite City] has a special smuggling channel from [Pure Land].

However, Master Lu did not stay for too long that time. He left immediately after getting the things. And that was more than 20 years ago.

He took Raphael to a bar in the lower class area.

——[Tank Bar].

Raphael silently recited the name of the tavern.

In the pub converted from the basement, darkness is the main theme here, and there are not many customers - at least, the middle area of ​​the pub is almost empty, with only two or three small tables in the corner.

The bartender, who is also the owner of the pub and is known as "Tank", was leisurely wiping the cups at the counter.

Ruda ordered a glass of juice for Raphael and a cocktail for himself.

Cocktails are a specialty drink in Huoyun City, and are hard to find in other places... The mixing technique is not difficult, but the ingredients are hard to come by. Some flavors of base liquor are even only produced by Pingtian Liquor Company.

Raphael stared at him with dissatisfaction. Who is he looking down on... This Ruda is getting more and more arrogant. He thinks that just because he had a terrifying but fruitless human-machine love affair with September, he really regards himself as a father?

At this time, Ruda was chatting with the bartender [Tank].

"You two look like new here?"

Lu Da swung the cup and said with a hazy look, "Do some small business."

[Tank] smiled slightly, nodded simply, and stopped paying attention, just because a new customer came in at this moment - and, it was obvious that he was familiar with the customer.

Luda looked at it quietly.

The person who came in was a white-haired man, he looked to be in his twenties or thirties... or even older. His eyes seemed to be looking around casually, but there was a strong sense of inquiry.

What impressed Luda most was that this man had a shallow scar on both sides of his eyes.

"Hey, great detective, what brings you here?" The bartender [Tank] greeted enthusiastically at this time: "Oh, it should be Director Ximen. Look at my memory. After you became the boss of Dongcheng District, I still can't remember you. It seems that Director Ximen, you should come to my place more often!"

Simon Ka sat directly in front of the long bar, took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, lit it up, and [Tank] pushed the ashtray skillfully.

Ximenka glanced casually at Master Lu and the other person sitting next to him, "You said this as if you were reciting a book. Are you saying this to me or to someone else?"

"It's all the same." [Tank] shrugged. "Old rules?"

"I'm a little tired today, so just a drink is fine." Ximenka pushed the ashtray away, "I have an appointment with someone, I'll lend you a place to talk about something later."

"Please come upstairs!" [Tank] made a gesture of invitation.

Ximen Ka sat here for a while, and after finishing his cigarette, he walked to the small room upstairs. From beginning to end, he never looked at Master Lu and the other person next to him.

When he disappeared from sight, Luda asked casually: "This looks like an important person, what's his business?"

Tank was also casual, wiping his glass as he spoke: "He is the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau of Dongcheng District, Huoyun City. He was originally a law enforcement officer, but later left the Huoyun Bureau due to some problems. He worked as a private detective for a while, but was re-employed a few days ago and became the boss of Dongcheng. To ordinary citizens like us, he is indeed a big shot."

Simon Ka's personal resume was no secret and anyone could find out. [Tank] had no intention of hiding anything.

Because in his opinion, Ruda was the kind of guy who did shady business.

[Tank Bar] is a place that sells information, and its favorite customers are those who do gray business.

Ruda and [Tank] exchanged glances, and after quickly confirming that both of them were interested, they took out an old notebook from their arms and opened it.

"Ask around." Luda pushed the notebook open a little, "Have you seen this thing?"

Raphael took a look at it, his eyes flickered slightly... There was a pattern drawn on the notebook: [∑]

——This is the symbol of [Abriel].

[Tank] quickly pushed the notebook back and shook his head, "What is this?"

Lu Da did not feel sorry for anything, and then he opened the book and continued to ask, "What about this?"

Raphael took another look, and this time his hand traced a pattern of a set of gears.

Two large gears and one small gear, divided into a triangle... There is no special meaning, but [Red King's Mausoleum] will mark them like this when producing servant machines.

The [Tank], the royal symbol of [Abriel] in front, did not react at all, but after the [Three Gears] appeared, [Tank] frowned slightly.

"What do you want to know?" [Tank] asked calmly.

"All." Master Lu was very calm, looking like a veteran gangster. He then took out a bag from his arms and put it on the table.

The bag was made of tanned deerskin and was very thick. Tank opened it and took a look. His pupils shrank involuntarily and he calmly put the bag into the drawer below.

A bag of top-grade spirit stones, including a fairy spirit stone.

[Tank] couldn't help but breathe faster. This was definitely a big deal.

The drawer is a secret compartment. Once something is put in it, it will fall into the secret room below... and then someone will take it away.

"Please follow me." [Tank] greeted and called a shy young man to take his place, then he carried Ruda and Raphael away and walked inside.

After a while, a tall man wearing a windbreaker, hat and a scarf covering his face pushed the door open.

The shy young man who was an apprentice bartender greeted him.

"I have an appointment."

After saying that, the man in the windbreaker walked straight up.

The trainee bartender made a clear gesture, and after the man went upstairs, he put up a sign in front of the stairs to prevent anyone else from going up.

We are all people who know the rules, so just put up a sign... After all, behind the [Tank Bar] is the upper-class area of ​​[Infinite City].

……

……

……

……

[Huoyun City] On top of a newly built mountain on the outskirts.

I saw a chubby, smiling, pink weirdo sitting on a big rock, sniffing something with his little nose.

The pink weirdo sucked his finger, thinking.

"Master, this is your dinner..."

Suddenly a voice was heard, and a man with a listless look and dry cheeks came over respectfully dragging a huge box.

【Magic Phoenix】The King of Heaven.
