Carrying the identifier from the interstellar to the world of immortal cultivation

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the cultivators in the courtyard changed drastically, and Sui An was no exception. Although she didn't know what kind of technique the soul-detecting and spirit-capturing technique was, and there was no record of such technique in the Yunchuan Chronicles, but as soon as she heard the name of the technique, she could guess that it must be some extremely cruel technique.

"Soul-snatching!" The Qi family head's expression changed, "That's a forbidden technique!"

"So what if I have forbidden techniques?" True Lord Caiwei said in an icy voice, "To avenge my son, I will not hesitate even if it means sacrificing all my life's cultivation and exhausting my blood and bones, let alone forbidden techniques!"

The head of the Qi family stared at Master Caiwei for a long while, then sighed heavily, "One day, right? My Qi family will definitely find the culprit who caused Yan Fei's death!"

The head of the Qi family looked around and looked at his son who was still gasping for breath and had a pale face, and sighed secretly.

"Qi Ruyan, come here!"

Qi Ruyan immediately handed Qi Shengjin, whom she was supporting, to the errand disciple beside her. The errand disciple was also injured, and suddenly a heavy object appeared in his hand, and he was almost crushed to the ground. Fortunately, he knew that this was in front of the master of the house, and if he let his precious son fall, the master would not forgive him, so he gritted his teeth and supported the man.

Sui An watched as Patriarch Qi called Qi Ruyan aside to talk without using any soundproofing. Of course, except for True Lord Caiwei, who was also in the Nascent Soul stage, no one in the courtyard dared to use their spiritual sense to eavesdrop on the conversation between Patriarch Qi and Qi Ruyan.

Sui An naturally didn't dare to do that, but she had Sui Dong.

If the head of the Qi family used sound insulation, Sui Dong would naturally not be able to detect it with his current ability. Fortunately, he did not use it.

"He asked Qi Ruyan to tell him in detail what happened before Zheng Yanfei's death."

"how long ago?"

"Qi Ruyan started talking about it from the moment Yu Jianshi, Zheng Yanfei, and Liu Chengzhou left the Wanmang Forest and arrived at Taoye Manor. According to what she said, the three of them arrived at Taoye Manor more than an hour earlier than you.

After arriving, Qi Shengjin arranged for Zheng Yanfei to stay at Linglai Garden, while Yu Jianshi and Liu Chengzhou stayed together in the guest house. Because all three of them were injured, but it wasn't apparent from the outside, Qi Shengjin arranged a welcoming banquet for them. Before the banquet, he also arranged for two medical practitioners to treat the three of them. These were the two Jindan cultivators standing in the courtyard. However, Liu Chengzhou said he was in good condition and declined the medical treatment.

Sui An knew that these two Jindan-stage medical practitioners were not the guest elder of their Jinling Sect, Master Lang Ping.

She secretly glanced at the two Jindan medical practitioners and found that their expressions were not much better than those of the Qi-refining practitioners like her in the courtyard.

Sui An sighed secretly in his heart. Even if he had cultivated to the Golden Core stage, he could only be at the mercy of a Yuanying cultivator who was at a higher level than him.

Sui Dong continued, "Qi Ruyan said that the two Jindan medical practitioners had both seen Zheng Yanfei, and their diagnosis was the same. Zheng Yanfei was injured in the Wanmang Forest, but she had already taken healing pills, and the injuries in her meridians were healing under the effect of the pills. They helped her regulate the spiritual energy in her meridians, allowing it to flow from the meridians to the dantian, and then from the dantian to the meridians. After completing a full cycle of circulation, they found that there was no stagnation or other abnormalities in the spiritual energy circulation, so they gave her a high-grade Yuqing Pill. After that, they didn't do any more treatment. They only told Zheng Yanfei to meditate for two to three more cycles when she returned home that night. She would be healed in a few days without any sequelae."

"In other words, her death had nothing to do with the injuries she suffered in the Wanmang Forest." Sui Anxin's heart turned cold again. "Then it can't really be a problem with the formation, right? Or if we can't find the problem, we'll have to undergo the soul-searching technique as well. Sui Dong, tell me, can a person still survive after using that forbidden technique? Forget it, whether they survive or not, but when the forbidden technique is used, does the person feel pain?"

It doesn’t matter whether I can survive or not. Even if I die, I hope I can die peacefully.

Sui An felt that in this short half day, her bottom line had been retreating again and again, and her psychological defenses, like those of most monks in this courtyard, were close to collapse.

"Xiao An'an, Shen Chijian is looking at you." Sui Dong suddenly said.

Sui An looked at Shen Chijian. He gave him a soothing look, then glanced at the person next to him. Sui An followed his gaze and saw that the person standing next to him was naturally Senior Kuang.

She didn't know what Shen Chijian meant, but from what had just happened, she could at least see that this foundation-building cultivator named Kuang Wei, although his cultivation was low, seemed to have some abilities. No matter whether he was a big shot or not, she would try to hug him first.

But how should I hug him in this situation?

Several ideas flashed through Sui An's mind, but they all ended in failure because she only had ideas but no action. While she was still trying to think of the next idea, the head of the Qi family had already finished listening to Qi Ruyan's report.

"My dear friends, what happened today in my Qi family's villa is truly a matter of great sorrow and grief to me. Our immediate plan is naturally to find the cause. Now everyone, listen to my command. Based on the investigation of the meridians, dantian, and external injuries, Yan Fei's death was caused by the fire of the Ten Thousand Pills Returning Heart Array."

When the head of the Qi family said this, he glanced at Master Caiwei. After all, he himself had not seen Zheng Yanfei's body, but he believed that Master Caiwei must have conducted a comprehensive investigation.

Since Zhenjun Caiwei did not refute his words, it meant that what she found out was the same as what Qi Ruyan said.

"In that case, what we need to investigate is the Wandan Guixin Formation. Why did it activate without anyone venturing in, and attack the formation's owner with formation fire?"

Although the Wandan Guixin Formation can seriously injure or even kill a Jindan cultivator, that is only when the formation master controls it with the formation command to exert its maximum attack power.

Zheng Yanfei is already a foundation-building cultivator. Even if the formation suddenly has problems and activates itself without anyone intruding, Zheng Yanfei, as the master of the formation, will not control the formation to attack herself. If she sees the formation fire attacking her, she will definitely defend herself. In this way, it will be even more impossible for the Wandan Guixin Formation to kill her.

Whether it was True Lord Caiwei or Patriarch Qi, the communication talismans they received had a general description of the incident on them, so when their spiritual senses reached the villa, they first scanned the entire villa formation with their spiritual senses and did not find any problems. It was precisely because of this that they did not vent their anger on the Jinling Sect cultivators who set up the formation as soon as they appeared.

They all felt that there was something fishy going on. It might be an accident, but the greater possibility was that there was a murderer whom they had not discovered.

However, in order to prevent any omissions, Patriarch Qi still asked, "Where is the person who set up the formation in the other courtyard?"

Yu Yuanqi immediately stepped forward and bowed, "I am a junior cultivator from the Jinling Sect, and I am one of the cultivators in charge of the formations in the other courtyard."
