Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Chapter 139 Summoning Ghosts and Capturing Souls

Gu Chen Patriarch kept begging for mercy, but seeing the murderous intent in Chen Yibai's eyes, which showed no hesitation or restraint, he realized that no matter how much he begged, it would be useless.

So in that instant, the Old Ancestor of Lonely Star suddenly closed his eyes.

Chen Yibai thought the old guy had given up and was ready to lie down and die.

Unexpectedly, after closing his eyes, the Old Ancestor of Lonely Star suddenly opened his mouth again. As his throat bulged and moved upward, a bead the size of an eyeball, emitting a ghostly green light, flew out of his mouth.

"Shedding one's skin like a cicada, dissolving into immortality through corpse transformation?"

The green bead that Gu Chen Lao Zu spat out is most likely the 'Sealing God Mystic Pearl' that houses the essence and soul of Gu Chen Lao Zu left behind in the mortal world!

This clearly shows that they knew their bodies were in danger, so they pulled a quick escape, sacrificing the general to save the chariot.

As for 'dissolving into immortality through corpse transformation,' it's just a metaphor.

True immortality through corpse liberation means that the body remains in the world after death, while the primordial spirit ascends to immortality.

Clearly, the essence of the Lonely Star Ancestor had not yet reached this level; it was merely an emergency escape that caused him to break free from his body.

As the Investiture of the Gods Pearl was expelled, the body of the Lonely Star Ancestor, which had been floating on the coffin platform, became an empty shell, and the green fur on his body instantly disappeared.

Chen Yibai's body, already charging forward like an arrow, didn't even have time to sheathe his sword. Since the original owner's soul had already been possessed and devoured, there was no point in keeping him. He simply slashed down on the waist with his sword.

Even with the sword plague, the crimson ancient sword is still sharp enough.

The empty shell was split in two at the waist and fell off the base.

The appearance of the Divine Pearl caused its green light to instantly illuminate the entire hall in green.

"The God-Sealing Pearl!"

The next second, the darkness in front of Yan Xuefei was illuminated by green light. Upon seeing the Divine Pearl, she exclaimed in surprise, excitement, and exhilaration.

Chen Yibai was surprised by Yan Xuefei's exaggerated reaction.

Yan Xuefei actually knew about this too; it seems she knew more about the secrets of this Western Han Dynasty imperial tomb than I did.

Furthermore, the main purpose of the Shen Ding Group in going through all sorts of hardships to find this tomb was definitely for this Fengshen Xuanzhu (a magical pearl).

Therefore, this Divine Pearl is definitely not just a repository for the essence and soul of the Lone Star Ancestor; it must have other uses as well.

Meanwhile, when the King Kang, who had been hiding to the side, saw the appearance of the Divine Pearl, his bloodshot eyes also became excited, just like a turtle seeing a green bean.

Without a doubt, the main purpose of King Kang's visit here was also for this Divine Pearl.

Only Chen Yibai felt like he was just there to stir up trouble and join in the fun.

Furthermore, they had no idea what the Fengshen Xuanzhu was actually used for.

Could this bead really help people become immortals?

But regardless of what the use of the Divine Pearl is, Chen Yibai has a premonition that it will not benefit him no matter who it falls into.

Especially Prince Kang, we absolutely cannot let him fall into his hands!

So, at the moment when the Investiture of the Gods Pearl was spat out, it tried to fly into the air and escape.

Chen Yibai swiftly drew the Vajra Umbrella, opened it, and swung his arm up, attempting to use the umbrella to block the Divine Pearl.

Surprisingly, the Divine Pearl was much more agile than Chen Yibai had imagined. The moment it was blocked by the Vajra Umbrella, it immediately drew an arc in the air to avoid it and rushed straight towards Yan Xuefei.

"careful!"

Chen Yibai immediately saw through the Fengshen Xuanzhu's intention and quickly shouted at Yan Xuefei.

This means he wants to possess Yan Xuefei again.

They want to use Yan Xuefei as a shield.

It's like being possessed by a ghost, with its spirit attaching itself to a person's body.

Although it is generally people with weak yang energy or weak bodies who are more susceptible to being possessed by ghosts.

But the essence of the Lonely Star Ancestor is not as simple as an ordinary ghost.

Given Yan Xuefei's small stature, she definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it.

However, Yan Xuefei's main purpose for this trip was to obtain the Divine Conferred Pearl. She had originally planned to snatch it, but the Divine Conferred Pearl delivered itself to her doorstep.

So Yan Xuefei completely ignored Chen Yibai's reminder and instead shouted at him, "Captain Chen, help me hold off that big black zombie, and I'll forgive you for tricking me out of the Earth Token!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Xuefei immediately pulled out a blank yellow talisman from her black lace pantyhose.

What is this operation?

Chen Yibai was completely dumbfounded. At first glance, he thought Yan Xuefei had pulled a sanitary napkin out of her pants, which almost startled him.

Then, Yan Xuefei took out a talisman, bit her finger, and quickly drew a blood curse on it while muttering incantations to herself.

As soon as the blood incantation on the talisman was completed and the incantation stopped, it was stuck directly to his forehead.

This time, Chen Yibai finally understood.

Yan Xuefei actually knows Maoshan Taoist magic!

In Maoshan Taoist arts, there is a ghost-exorcising technique called "leading ghosts and capturing souls." In this technique, the ghost-catching Taoist priest first enters the situation himself to draw the evil spirits and demons onto his body, and then captures the souls.

It seems Yan Xuefei had made preparations in advance, and my reminder was unnecessary.

Interestingly, the spirit of the Lonely Ancestor in the Investiture of the Gods seemed to have also seen through Yan Xuefei's actions. He originally wanted to find an easy target to possess, but unexpectedly he encountered the toughest and most professional opponent.

Therefore, it can be clearly seen that the Divine Pearl that was rushing towards Yan Xuefei drew another arc, trying to change its path.

But by then it was too late for the Old Ancestor Guchen to react.

Yan Xuefei reached out and grabbed the Divine Pearl in her hand. Without hesitation, she opened her mouth and swallowed it deeply. With a frown, she gritted her teeth, moved her throat, and swallowed it down.

Did Yan Xuefei swallow the Investiture of the Gods Pearl whole?

Chen Yibai's expression was exaggerated; this was another ruthless woman, Hou Guifen!

After Yan Xuefei swallowed the Divine Pearl, her face immediately reacted as if she had a fit of hysteria. First, her face turned pale and her forehead turned dark. Then, her facial features began to distort exaggeratedly, and her body trembled and shook violently.

This is not a reaction to possession by a ghost; it's a reaction to a ghost struggling inside the body.

Even if the evil spirit is expelled from the body after being possessed by a ghost, if the physical condition is too poor, it may still cause some mental sequelae.

As for whether Yan Xuefei can withstand it, that depends on her cultivation level and physical condition.

And this is only one aspect.

Kang Wang's figure was fiercely charging towards Yan Xuefei.

It seems that for King Kang, this is truly his last gamble.

It's not too late to take the Divine Pearl out of Yan Xuefei's body now.

If it had been any later, and the Divine Pearl had been digested within Yan Xuefei's body, then everything would have been completely ruined...
