Chapter 269 Ten Magical Pearls

The pitch-black coffin hung in mid-air like a fishbone in a person's throat.

Even though it was wrapped with chains as thick as arms, Shen Bai could still feel a chilling coldness inside the dark coffin from a distance.

After the cold breath came out, it seemed to penetrate into his body and take away all his warmth.

Fortunately, this is just a feeling, not reality.

When Xianyue saw this scene, her beautiful eyebrows frowned tightly, and a familiar yet strange feeling appeared on her face. She always felt that she had seen this thing somewhere.

Shen Bai turned around and asked, "Village Chief Jiang, what's in here?"

Since he was brought here, there must be something wrong, and he was asked to look at the coffin in front of him, so Shen Bai knew that everything here was related to the coffin in front of him.

As expected, after Shen Bai said this, Village Chief Jiang's face showed a complicated expression.

The coffin in front was suspended in the air without any movement, and Village Chief Jiang looked at the coffin with a hint of fear and terror from the bottom of his heart.

"My friend, there is a person living in the coffin, a person who can never be released." Village Chief Jiang said in a very serious tone.

After hearing this, Shen Bai became more and more curious.

He knew that it was normal for people to live in a coffin, but Village Chief Jiang just said that it could never be taken out, which proved that the person lying in the coffin must be a living person.

Because the dead don't need to be released.

Shen Bai thought for a moment, then put down his hand that was touching his chin and said, "Village Chief Jiang, if you have something to say, just say it directly. You just said you had an unreasonable request, and now you've seen this coffin. What's going on? There's no need to beat around the bush."

Now that things have come to this, everything that needs to be understood and seen is clear.

Shen Bai felt that he should talk about the main point. He didn't like this kind of beating around the bush. It would be better to just point out what the matter was.

Village Chief Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "I would like to ask for your help in destroying the being in the coffin. This thing has been existing in the entire village and will have a great impact on the villagers."

"Even though we can't release it, it's like a sword hanging over our heads, threatening to plunge the entire village into despair and fear at any moment."

Shen Bai frowned: "Kill the people inside. Who are they?"

These members of the refuge are actually mediocre when it comes to fighting, but they are at the top of the world in terms of logistics.

If the person in the coffin is very powerful, this village will definitely not be able to deal with him.

But now that he is asked to help deal with it, he must know what is inside.

If he doesn't even know what something is, and acts rashly, he might end up getting burned, which would probably be more trouble than it's worth.

After all, the aura emanating from the coffin in front of him was so strong that even Shen Bai felt his scalp tingling when he sensed it.

Village Chief Jiang took a deep breath and said, "This is a person from the forbidden land of death."

"Forbidden Land of Death, one of the ten forbidden lands?" Shen Bai asked with a little surprise when he heard the word "forbidden land".

There are ten forbidden places in the world, the desolate forbidden land is one of them, and the death forbidden land is also one of them.

As for information about the Forbidden Land of Death, there is very little, and we only know that it has such a name.

Village Chief Jiang nodded and said, "That's right. A long time ago, a man suddenly walked out of the forbidden land of death, and for some unknown reason he came to our refuge."

"When he arrived, the space of the entire refuge began to fluctuate violently."

"If he had stayed there for long, the refuge would have collapsed instantly. But for some unknown reason, he collapsed upon arriving at the refuge and hasn't woken up to this day."

"That aura was so terrifying that it made my whole body numb. I had no choice but to ask another refuge to build a coffin to seal his aura. Otherwise, even if he was unconscious, the refuge would still completely collapse."

Upon hearing this, Shen Bai asked, "Since that's the case, since he's already unconscious, can't you just kill him directly?"

He has already fallen into a coma, and Village Chief Jiang wants to kill this man, so he can just take advantage of his illness to kill him.

Why seal it in a coffin and make it so troublesome?

Unexpectedly, after Shen Bai asked this question, the complex expression on Village Chief Jiang's face became even more intense.

Village Chief Jiang's eyes shone with fear. "We tried, but even if he was unconscious, we couldn't kill him. No matter what kind of attack entered his body, it would be absorbed by him. He seemed to have a death force that could completely destroy all attacks, turning them into eternal silence."

Shen Bai narrowed his eyes: "If that's the case, I don't think I can handle it."

If this person is very powerful, Shen Bai might consider it.

But this person still couldn't be killed while he was unconscious, so this thing was a bit strange.

Shen Bai used the Wuji Gua technique to make some calculations.

Would it be beneficial for him to enter the coffin and fight the unconscious person in the forbidden land of death?

There was pitch black in front of me, which meant great misfortune, and there was no sign of good luck at all.

When he came to this refuge before, Shen Bai had calculated and felt that he could obtain a lot of opportunities, but now when he calculated again, it became a very bad omen.

Shen Bai knew that what he did must be wrong.

He shouldn't have helped Village Chief Jiang kill the creature in the coffin, or else he would face a life-and-death crisis if he did so.

Xianyue had been lowering her presence, and only Shen Bai could sense it. After seeing Shen Bai's refusal, she whispered, "I can handle it."

After saying this, Shen Bai was slightly surprised and turned to look at Xianyue.

From Village Chief Jiang's perspective, Shen Bai seemed to be staring at a ball of air.

He was a little confused and didn't understand why Shen Bai suddenly made such a move.

Xianyue said slowly, "Remember when I told you that the people in the chaotic organization were actually connected to the forbidden area? Now I can tell you that the people in the chaotic organization all came from the forbidden area of ​​death."

"They have an incomparable grasp of the power of death, and the one in front of us must be the one who stayed in the forbidden land of death."

When he said this, Xianyue raised his finger and pointed it in the air at Village Chief Jiang.

Immediately afterwards, Village Chief Jiang's eyes became extremely dull, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

"Now we can communicate with confidence." Xianyue said again.

Shen Bai thought for a moment and then asked, "Can you enter and exit the forbidden area at will?"

He could analyze from the state of the crescent moon that if he wanted to emerge from the desolate forbidden land, he would need the power of the jade token.

But now Xinyue told him that the people from the chaotic organization came out of the forbidden land of death, which made Shen Bai feel a little curious.

If anyone can walk out of the forbidden area at will, then the forbidden area is not worthy of being called a forbidden area.

Xianyue said slowly, "I can't go into detail about how they got out, but you have to understand that this person staying in the refuge is indeed an extremely unstable factor."

"The Forbidden Land of Death is not as simple as you think. They are actually divided into two factions. The Chaotic Organization is only one of them. However, the Chaotic Organization occupies a large number of people, so the remaining part is in a very tragic situation."

"This person should be one of the few. He was able to walk out of the forbidden land of death. Perhaps he changed his mind and decided to join the rebellion organization."

"He definitely didn't faint suddenly, but was seriously injured. It's very likely that he was attacked by someone from another forbidden area when he was leaving."

"But by chance, I entered this refuge."

Shen Bai touched his chin and said, "It seems that other forbidden areas don't like the Death Forbidden Area either. But why don't they just kill him directly?"

From what Xianyue said just now, Shen Bai could hear that the Forbidden Land of Death seemed to be a stinking rat shit, causing trouble and making many forbidden areas unhappy with him.

But he also had a doubt.

"Since you've already taken action, why don't you just kill him directly instead of letting him escape to a refuge?"

Xianyue smiled bitterly and said, "They paid a huge price to come out of the forbidden land of death, and we also paid a huge price to attack them. This price is unbearable. It's already very good to be able to take action once."

"I think there were definitely more than one person who came out at that time, but he was the only one who escaped alive."

Shen Bai nodded and said, "So what do you want to do now?"

The matter was almost understood. Xianyue had said everything she could, and Shen Bai could not get any information from Xianyue about what she could not say.

In this case, we might as well solve the problem at hand first, and then talk about other things.

After a moment's thought, Xianyue said, "I can kill him, but this coffin can't be opened, and I can't kill him in the refuge. For so long, the aura in his body has been suppressed to the extreme by the coffin, but it has also been extremely concentrated. If I were to kill him, that aura would burst out, affecting not only this refuge but also the other places connected to it."

The Forbidden Land of Death is one of the ten forbidden areas. Even the world's top masters will pay a heavy price if they want to enter, and may not return.

This man was injured and suppressed by the aura of the coffin. The strength in his body could not be released and released, and had already condensed to a terrifying level.

Therefore, if we take action at this time, the aura will only leak out, causing unimaginable danger to the refuge.

Xianyue didn't want to take refuge in such danger. Although these people were a little timid and afraid of death, they were all lives.

In the Wancheng era, they just wanted to keep themselves out of trouble.

Shen Bai asked, "If we can't kill them here, then we can kill them somewhere else. Am I right?"

Xianyue nodded and said, "You are right, so I will put this coffin away now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xianyue raised his finger and pointed at the coffin in front of him.

As she made this move, terrifying formations began to emerge, densely packed in the thousands. Just a glance at them made even Shen Bai, who was quite accomplished in formations, feel his scalp tingle.

At least in terms of formation, he is far behind Xian Yue.

As the densely packed and terrifying formations like the crescent moon appeared, the coffin in front began to shake violently under the influence of the formations.

In just a few breaths, the coffin shrank rapidly and soon disappeared in mid-air.

The oppressive atmosphere disappeared, leaving only the empty sky.

When Shen Bai saw the coffin being put away, the pressure of death that had been hovering over him suddenly disappeared.

However, what made him feel a little strange was that when he performed the Wuji Gua technique, a golden color still appeared before his eyes, which meant that he could still gain greater opportunities through this refuge.

But now, what Shen Bai found most strange was this. It was clearly stated that he could obtain greater opportunities from this refuge, but now that the coffins had been put away, where were the opportunities?
Thinking of this, Shen Bai's expression when he looked at Xianyue became a little strange.

"Could it be that she took this opportunity for herself? Even the coffin was taken into the formation."

Xianyue felt Shen Bai's gaze on her, and a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

After she had used all her strength to take the coffin away, her body had become somewhat unstable.

I could have stayed outside for several hours, but now it has been shortened by more than half.

But for Xianyue, this trip was quite rewarding.

After bringing this coffin and the people inside back to the desolate forbidden land, perhaps we can make some new discoveries.

Shen Bai directly extended his hand: "Is there any benefit? You took away this coffin, so I must have something too, right?"

He didn't mince words and spoke directly.

After all, the two of them haven't met many times, so it's better to be more direct.

Xianyue really didn't expect that Shen Bai would speak so directly.

However, when she thought carefully about the time she had been in contact with Shen Bai and Shen Bai's personality, she felt that this straightforward statement seemed to be in line with Shen Bai's personality.

Thinking of this, Xianyue thought for a moment, then gently drew a line at the void in front of him.

She helped Shen Bai eliminate the members of the chaotic organization, and Shen Bai could let her get out through the jade token. This was a transaction with no loss, and both parties benefited.

Now she followed Shen Bai to find a refuge and took the coffin away. All this was because of Shen Bai. So in other words, she got the benefits while Shen Bai got nothing.

Xianyue was not a person who liked to owe others, so she prepared to give Shen Bai something.

When the crescent moon broke through the void, Shen Bai once again used the Wuji Gua technique.

This time, all the gold in the Wuji Guashu pointed to the crescent moon, which meant that his previous idea was correct and all the benefits came from the crescent moon.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai rubbed his hands and waited patiently.

After a few breaths, Xianyue waved slightly at the cracked void, and then a treasure chest half a person's height fell out from it and landed steadily on the ground.

There is a faint breath of space flowing above the box, which means that there is a huge space inside the treasure chest.

Shen Bai narrowed his eyes, rubbed his hands, and prepared to go forward and open the treasure chest.

Unexpectedly, Xianyue rolled her eyes at him, stopped Shen Bai, and said, "The things in here are treasures I have collected for many years. How can I let you take them all? I will pick out a few things you want for you."

Seeing this, Shen Bai nodded and said, "Okay, then you can pick one for me."

Now that things have come to this, it’s okay for others to pick on me.

Although Shen Bai was anxious, he did not show too much anxiety at this time.

Xianyue didn't say anything else, but closed her eyes and passed a wisp of Qi into the treasure chest. A moment later, the treasure chest opened, and ten beads flew out, suspended in mid-air.

"I can't bring the strange object out. It's tainted with the aura of the Desolate Forbidden Land. So I can't give it to you. Otherwise, after you use it, it will be tainted with a trace of the Desolate Forbidden Land's aura. Then, the people from the chaotic organization will easily find you."

"In that case, I will transform the ghost pearl into something for you."

Shen Bai felt that this was really the thing that surprised him the most.

Ten magical beads, a total of ten of them.

You should know that the Transformation Pearl is even rarer than the strange object. At the beginning, whether it was Emperor Shengwu or other people, they gave him the Transformation Pearl by the piece.

And now, the amount given to him by Xianyue is actually in double digits.

Shen Bai looked at Xianyue and said, "As expected, the people in your forbidden area are all rich dogs."

This was the first time Xianyue had heard this word. She felt that it was somewhat apt, but it wasn't a good word. "The Transformation Pearl is very precious. Even in the forbidden area, there aren't as many as you might imagine. I gave it to you this time because I really wanted to repay a favor."

Although he said that, Shen Bai felt that he had made a lot of money since he was able to take out ten Transformation Pearls in one breath.

He didn't say anything more. After sensing the unusual movements of Amber and Hongzhuang, he opened up the space of the Yin-Yang Object Storage Technique and hid all ten magical beads into the Yin-Yang Object Storage Technique.

After the Huagui Pearl disappeared, Xianyue pointed at the treasure chest in front of him, and the treasure chest immediately flew up and fell into the crack.

Soon, the cracks gradually closed and peace returned to the place.

Xianyue glanced at Shen Bai and said, "I've gained a lot from this trip. I have to go back immediately."

Although the time was shortened a lot due to the action.

But Xianyue can still stay here, but because he has gained new gains, he must hurry back to the desolate forbidden land to count the gains first.

The people in the coffins don’t have to be killed. Perhaps some of the people in the desolate forbidden land have other uses.

Shen Bai thought for a moment and asked, "Do you still have the jade token?"

The jade token can summon the crescent moon. Although the conditions are harsh and require the help of members of the chaotic organization, for Shen Bai, such harsh conditions are not a problem at all.

His biggest enemies now, apart from the princes who are about to rise up in arms and some scattered ones, are the members of the chaotic organization.

This time, the other party acted shamelessly, and there might be a next time.

If the next time Shen Bai encounters a high-level organization attacking him and is unable to defeat them, this jade token will be an excellent life-saving tool.

As the saying goes, don't waste it.

Shen Bai is not a stupid person.

Xianyue said speechlessly: "I only have one piece of that thing. It is very precious. It takes a lot of time to make it."

"I don't have any other."

Hearing this, Shen Bai said with a hint of regret: "That's such a pity."

He thought these things should be seen everywhere, but he didn't expect them to be so precious.

When Xianyue saw Shen Bai's regretful look, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

Even though she was somewhat accustomed to Shen Bai's personality, when she saw Shen Bai's expression now, she felt that this expression should not come from the face of such a peerless enchantress.

She also hoped to have a few more jade tokens so that she could have more chances to come out, but without these things, she would never have them.

"Okay, I won't say anything more. I have to leave right away." Xianyue said.

Shen Bai nodded and said, "If I go to the desolate forbidden land, we will meet again then."

Without the jade token, it means that Xianyue has lost her only chance to get out.

If that's the case, no one knows when they will meet again.

Xianyue didn't say anything more. Her figure gradually faded and then disappeared from Shen Bai's sight.

After all the scenery disappeared, Village Chief Jiang, who had a dull look in his eyes, immediately returned to his normal state.

He looked around blankly until he saw the empty sky. His eyes widened: "My friend, where is the coffin? How could it suddenly disappear?"

He didn't know what was going on with him, as if he had suddenly lost a piece of memory, but he remembered the coffin clearly.

Now the coffin suddenly disappeared, and Village Chief Jiang felt a chill in his heart.

That is a sword hanging over the heads of everyone in the shelter. If this sword were to be unsheathed now, no one in the shelter would have a good outcome.

Shen Bai shrugged and said, "The village chief is gone now. Don't worry, there won't be any danger at all."

Gone?

Village Chief Jiang widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Shen Bai didn't explain too much, he just simply said, that's it.

Since Xianyue wanted to make Village Chief Jiang fall into such a confused state before taking action, it proved that she had her own plans and would not let Village Chief Jiang know her identity, so too much explanation now would seem useless.

Village Chief Jiang looked at Shen Bai with complicated eyes: "My friend, I find that making a deal with you this time is the best decision I have ever made in my life."

If before, Village Chief Jiang was still skeptical, and even made the decision with a feeling of throwing the jar into chaos.

But now, Village Chief Jiang felt that he had gotten a great bargain.

He knew better than anyone how terrifying the existence in the coffin was, but even such a terrifying existence still disappeared inexplicably when facing Shen Bai.

Although he had lost a piece of his memory, if Shen Bai said it was gone, then it was really gone. After all, there were only him and Shen Bai left here.

Village chief Jiang even thought that the thing in the coffin was killed by Shen Bai.

As for Village Chief Jiang's misunderstanding, Shen Bai felt that it was okay to let him misunderstand.

After all, he was too lazy to explain.

Shen Bai looked around and said, "Now that the matter has been resolved, I should leave. But how will I find you next time I come in?"

Every time Shen Bai had to pass through that shelter and walk along a passage to reach the location of Village Chief Jiang, which was really troublesome for him.

Village Chief Jiang pondered for a moment, then pulled out an iron plate from his bosom and handed it over. "Our village excels in casting, and combined with my spatial ability, we have this plate. If you want to come in, you can activate the spatial power on the plate at any time, and you can enter our village from the outside. It's like a key."

Upon hearing this, Shen Bai picked up the iron plate and looked at it carefully for a moment. He found that the iron plate was extremely exquisite in terms of both the casting method and the spatial aura on it.

After activating the above spatial ability, the space will gradually distort, and eventually a special channel will be formed. Through that channel, you can reach the refuge where Village Chief Jiang is.

This thing is quite practical.

Shen Bai weighed the iron plate in his hand and placed it in the space of the Yin-Yang Absorption Technique. Then he said, "In that case, I will leave first. The village chief can wait here. I will send someone to discuss the follow-up details with you when the time comes."

What are specialized people? Naturally, they are the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

After he went out, he didn't plan to do it himself, after all, he still had to work on his proficiency.

Now that a channel has been opened, we just need to hand it over to Emperor Shengwu.

Now, Emperor Shengwu has less than two and a half months before he will step into the desolate forbidden land.

Before entering, I believe that Emperor Shengwu will properly arrange for this great gift I gave him.

Afterwards, Shen Bai didn't say anything more. Under the guidance of Village Chief Jiang, he returned to the abandoned military camp through a special passage.

After Shen Bai returned, Village Chief Jiang completely closed this passage.

With the iron plate in Shen Bai's hand, Shen Bai can come here at any time. Leaving this passage is a hidden danger. If it is found by people from a disorderly organization and they follow this passage to find their village, it will cause big trouble.

……

After returning to the abandoned military camp, Shen Bai didn't say anything more. He just took off into the air, turned into a shadow, and flew towards Qianyuanjing.

It was already night, but the Tianjiansi was still brightly lit.

The finishing work seems simple, but it actually takes a very long time.

Although Qianyuanjing is generally very stable at present, they must ensure that there are no loopholes in terms of people's livelihood and security.

The members of the Tianjiansi are full of energy. Even though some of them haven't slept for many days, they still feel energetic.

The reason is that there was a chief minister named Shen Bai in Qianyuanjing.

The chaos in the entire Qianyuanjing was completely smoothed out by Shen Bai alone. If they can't even do the finishing and maintenance work now, they will be ashamed of everything Shen Bai had done before.

According to Hong Yuan and Han Sanfeng, all members of the Tianjian Division must bring their heads to see Shen Bai to apologize.

As members of the Qianyuanjing Tiansi and the constables of the yamen who have been suppressed for a long time, they are now working not only for Shen Bai, but also to protect the interests of the people of Qianyuanjing.

Until Shen Bai returned to the Tianjian Division, many busy members had not yet noticed his presence.

Fortunately, a few people with sharp eyes saw Shen Bai, hurried over, and began to lead Shen Bai to the five-story building of the Jiantian Division.

Shen Bai was extremely familiar with this road, but Shen Bai not only had a noble status now, but also had the entire Qianyuanjing Tianjian Division convinced. Even if he was walking on such a small road, the members of the Tianjian Division felt that their Lord Shen needed someone to lead the way.

It’s not about whether you are familiar with the road or not, it’s about your style.

Soon, Shen Bai returned to the five-story building of the Tianjian Division. After waving his hand to let the Tianjian Division members leave, he closed the door.

As soon as the door was closed, two streaks of light fell to the ground, then turned into amber and red makeup, hugging Shen Bai's arms on the left and right.

There is no need to say much about Amber. This girl is very clever. As soon as she hugged Shen Bai's arm, she looked at him with pitiful eyes.

"Master, I want it."

This statement made some people feel a little confused, but Shen Bai knew what Amber wanted.

Hong Zhuang exudes the aura of a classical beauty, but at this moment that aura is unstable, and her eyes are filled with longing.

Even without speaking, Shen Bai could feel the eagerness in those longing eyes.

The two strange beasts made the same expression. Shen Bai knew without saying anything that it was because of the ten strange beads in his hand.

For the strange beast, this thing is no less than a delicious feast.

They are irresistible.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai was supported by the two women and sat on the chair.

Amber was massaging Shen Bai's shoulders, while Hongzhuang squatted down with her curvy body, placed Shen Bai's legs on her plump thighs, and kneaded them gently.

Shen Bai was speechless, and then he opened up the space of Yin-Yang Absorption Technique.

Ten magical beads fell in front of him.

He was going to give the two strange beasts a boost.

Although the improvement will not be direct to himself, the effect brought to him by the two strange beasts is more powerful than a direct improvement.

Shen Bai first looked at Amber, then at Hongzhuang, and then he had an idea in his mind.

"Amber, you needed four Transformation Pearls to evolve last time, but now you need six. I'll give you six."

As he spoke, Shen Bai moved the six magical beads aside.

"Hongzhuang, you need four Transformation Pearls for this evolution, this is just right."

Shen Bai placed four more magical beads in front of Hong Zhuang.

In this way, the ten Huagui beads were completely divided.

Amber and Hongzhuang each held the magic bead, with a happy smile on their faces.

Shen Bai opened up the space of the Yin-Yang Absorption Technique and said, "Go and evolve. I'll be able to feel it after you've evolved."

Both girls nodded, looking at Shen Bai with eyes filled with endless tenderness.

Soon, the two women stepped into the space of Yin-Yang Absorption Technique and began to digest the power of the Magic Pearl.

From Shen Bai's perspective, the two giant eggs completely wrapped the two women's bodies.

Once they break open the giant egg, a qualitative change will occur.

Shen Bai also withdrew his gaze, looked at all his magical powers, and rubbed his hands.

"Next, I will cultivate the Myriad Waters Technique to level eight."
