New and dark light years

Chapter 27: Seeing Through the Enemy
The so-called soul-searching method is to use a strange magic to control the mental consciousness of the recipient, making him/her defenseless, so that he/she can answer any question asked.

There are not many people who know this kind of magic, but as a spirit hunter in his sixties, it is not surprising that Xu Sainian knows some strange and bizarre magic.

But this proposal was immediately opposed by the vast majority of people.

"Xu Xunshou, you should also understand the drawbacks of the soul-searching method. We cannot accept this proposal."

Soul-searching is indeed effective in forcing confessions, but its side effects are also obvious, and it can cause damage to the soul of the person being subjected.

Damage to the soul can be minor or serious.

For a warrior, if his soul is injured, at most his intelligence will be damaged, but his skills will still be there.

But for spirit hunters, it is different.

In addition to strengthening their Qi and blood, spirit hunters also need to nourish their Yin Qi and learn the art of learning.

The spirit and soul are related to the talent for learning magic.

Like Li Lin, he is just starting out now. He has only learned the Yin-nourishing Heart Sutra and has not yet reached the stage of learning magic. If his soul is damaged, it will be difficult for him to learn magic.

You can only 'change your job' to a warrior.

Seeing that everyone was against him, Xu Saifeng said helplessly, "But it's obvious that there's a traitor among us. If we don't find him, every one of us will be unable to sleep or eat, fearing that he'll die the next moment."

Everyone was speechless, after all, what Xu Saifeng said made sense.

Xu Saifeng continued, "My soul-searching technique has reached a high level of perfection. As long as you are careful, you won't harm anyone's soul."

Everyone listened quietly.

At this time, a spirit hunter who was about the same age as Xu Saifeng came out and said, "Old Xu, I trust you. Let me use it first."

"Haha, Lao Ji, thank you so much." Xu Saifeng smiled happily when he saw that someone supported him.

'Old Ji' walked up to Xu Hanfeng, his expression natural and relaxed: "Let's get started."

Xu Saifeng raised his right hand, and on the tip of his index finger, he held a black ball the size of an egg, and slowly pointed it at the center of the eyebrows of this "Old Ji".

Li Lin watched curiously, he wanted to see what the magic was all about.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a line of text appearing in the lower right corner of his field of vision.

[Hidden Embryo Mysterious Treasure +1]

Li Lin's eyes widened slightly.

Wait a minute... the mysterious hidden treasure of the underworld is the mysterious ritual of the ghost and spirit fetus!

How could Xu Saifeng know such a weird magic?

It has to be used on a person, and on a man at that!

At this moment, a storm of thoughts arose in Li Lin's mind.

In less than a moment, he understood what was going on.

He held the gun with both hands and swept it across the ground, raising a cloud of smoke.

At the same time, Li Lin leaped backwards and shouted, "That's not soul-searching magic. Something's wrong with Xu Saifeng!"

He has done his best to say this.

How many people can survive depends on their own destiny.

He didn't dare to stay. After shouting this, he became the biggest suspect. If he didn't run, he would be the worst off because he couldn't explain why he knew there was something wrong with Xu Saifeng. If he couldn't explain it, then there was something wrong with him.

After landing, Li Lin turned around and ran wildly, breaking out of the formation in an instant.

The white jade token on his waist glowed red, and the kind of mumbling voice that made his scalp tingle appeared in his ears.

At this time, he saw a big tree in front of him with a dense crown.

He threw the spear upwards and stabbed it into the tree canopy. Then, using his hands and feet, he climbed to the top of the tree in less than two breaths, retrieved the spear, and squatted down on a relatively stable branch.

At the same time, he put on the concealing robe.

The red light on the white jade plate disappeared instantly.

It took only four breaths of time for these movements to complete. Within the formation, Xu Saifeng and the others waved their sleeves, dispersing the smoke and dust, only to discover that Li Lin had vanished from their sight.

At this time, everyone stood further away from each other.

Xu Saifeng's face was serious: "That's ridiculous. I have absolutely no intention of harming anyone."

But no one completely believed him at this time.

Even the 'Old Ji' who was there just now retreated several steps.

The atmosphere was unusually depressing.

After a long silence, Xu Saifeng sighed softly, "I don't understand. I've clearly been in Yulin County the longest, and I've clearly worked with you all for quite some time without any conflicts. So why would you trust a young man who's been in the industry for less than six months? You're unwilling to trust me!"

The scene was quiet.

Bai Bufan looked left and right, and subconsciously retreated behind his uncle.

After hearing this, everyone became even more suspicious of Xu Saifeng.

Bai Liwei said, "If Li Xunshu had stood here and pointed at you, we would have just ignored him. But when he saw you use your magic, his face changed drastically, and he immediately ran away, not forgetting to warn us. That means something different."

Xu Saifeng frowned: "Is there such a thing?"

"Besides, Li Xunshou has only been in business for half a year." Bai Liwei snorted. "He has no connections or influence, and his actions are innocent. He has never even been to Bobai Town, so it's impossible for him to do something like killing soldiers from a military town. But you... Xu Xunshou, you know so many things, and you chose this place, so it's easy for you to make arrangements."

As he finished speaking, ten spirit hunters had surrounded Xu Saifeng.

"I never thought my plans would be ruined by a young kid again and again." Xu Saifeng stopped pretending and said with a smile, "Otherwise, you should be in the military town by now, turned into bones, instead of still here, barking at me."

Bai Liwei frowned and asked, "Why?"

"Don't worry, I will tell you the reason, but after I subdue you all."

Bai Liwei was puzzled: "Xu Xunshou, you are only one person, and we have twelve people. How can you win?"

"If I were still an eighth-rank spirit hunter, I certainly wouldn't be able to defeat you." Xu Saifeng said with a smile, "Now I'm a seventh-rank."

As he spoke, the clothes on his body moved without wind, as if a stream of air was emanating from his body.

But Zhou Liwei and the others showed no signs of fear: "It's normal to hide your true state, isn't it? Who wouldn't keep a hand for themselves nowadays?"

After saying that, Zhou Liwei and others continued to narrow the encirclement.

Xu Saifeng smiled complacently and said, "Also, who told you that I'm all alone?"

Zhou Liwei and others' expressions changed drastically.

At this time, Li Lin was squatting on the treetop not far from the cave, watching a group of men in black walking by below.

Walking in front was a fat man waving a paper fan.

These people all had a white jade plate hanging around their waists, which was emitting a red light.

And the one following at the back was Lao Hou.

Things are getting more troublesome.

Li Lin stretched out his hand and covered his nose, preventing himself from making any sound, not even the sound of breathing.

After a while, the sound of fighting was heard, and at the same time, several familiar figures rushed out from the formation.

At the same time, the white jade plates on their bodies glowed brightly red.

A few more people chased out.

Li Lin waited for a while, and after everyone had gone far away, he jumped down from the treetop and squatted down to move forward.

Not long after, he reached the outskirts of the cave and heard the sound of people talking.

"When Li Xunshou returns to the county, he will definitely report to the county magistrate. When the court sends experts, you won't be able to escape either."

"That brat Li Lin can't get away." Xu Saifeng's voice was filled with a smug smile. "I also have the Liuren Guiding Banner. As long as we're within a hundred miles, finding him will be easy. And once this magic enters the body, it will produce a yin energy that corrodes the body. A spirit hunter who has only been in the business for half a year, he naturally can't withstand it. In less than an incense stick, the yin energy will attack his heart, and his whole body will be cold and blood will run cold, and he will die. Hahaha!"
