Chapter 423: What Talisman Can A Young Girl Make?

The weasels that were splashed by the green liquid were instantly corroded. In less than five seconds, they became skeletons.

At the same time, a pit appeared on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Chu Luo and Li Yan frowned at the same time.

Li Yan asked, “Luoluo, can you resolve this?”

“Sure… You use the gun and I use the talisman. We’ll deal with it together.”

“Okay.”

Li Yan quickly raised his gun and shot at the weasel spirit. Chu Luo threw a talisman at the same time.

The weasel spirit was obviously not afraid of bullets. Instead, he was afraid of Chu Luo’s talisman.

He wanted to escape when the talisman approached him, but the bullets penetrated his body at the same time.

Pfft!

The bullet stopped the weasel spirit from fleeing and the talisman stuck to its body.

In the next second, an ear-piercing scream resounded throughout the hall.

Creak…

The weasel spirit found himself surrounded by a ball of flames, and the ball of flames quickly swallowed him up and burned him to ashes.

The entire hall returned to a calm state.

The two of them walked towards the throne.

“They all came out from behind the throne. There must be an exit behind the throne.”

Chu Luo’s guess was right. There was actually a hole behind the throne. The hole was dark and no one knew where it led.

Chu Luo and Li Yan looked at each other. The two of them seemed to have thought of something at the same time and Chu Luo wanted to walk over.

However, Li Yan grabbed her wrist.

“Don’t go first. There might be an ambush down there.”

Chu Luo nodded. After thinking for a while, she took out a talisman. After the talisman transformed into a person, that person jumped into the hole.

Chu Luo tapped Li Yan’s eye with her finger. The two of them could see what the paper effigy could see at the same time.

The hole was very, very dark. The paper effigy walked for about five minutes before light was seen ahead, but the light was a little strange.

Chu Luo thought for a moment and said to Li Yan, “That’s light from the Eternal Lamp[1].”

“Eternal Lamp?”

“That’s right. There can’t possibly be an Eternal Lamp here unless someone brought it.”

Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, the talisman paper effigy walked into the range of the light.

There was a stone room inside, but before the paper effigy could see the environment inside, it was burned by a fire.

Chu Luo removed the scene in front of her and sneered.

“There’s someone inside who has special abilities. This person should be coming up soon.”

Li Yan immediately tightened his grip on the gun.

Chu Luo took out another talisman from her body and the two of them quickly turned invisible.

Soon, two people came out of the hole. One was an ordinary person, and the other was someone with special abilities.

The two of them quickly scanned the entire hall and saw the corpses of weasels everywhere, but they didn’t see that weasel spirit.

The ordinary person said warily, “Master, where did the weasel you turned into go? So many weasels have died. Has the person who came left?”

“The person who came can’t have left. He might be invisible. Let me take a look.”

After saying that, he took out a talisman and quickly threw it into the air. Then, he kept mumbling something. After he finished reciting, he shouted, “Show yourself!”

Half a minute later.

The ordinary person hesitated for a moment and said, “Master, maybe the person who came is outside the door. Our mission is to guard this place and not let anyone in. Why don’t you set up a barrier here?”

“Do you think a barrier is so easy to set up?”

“What if there are many people outside who are as capable as you?”

“What’s there to be afraid of? I have treasures here. Even people with abilities can’t beat me.”

“Yes, yes, yes. You’re the most powerful, Master. This is the first time I’ve seen a master who can turn a weasel into a demon like you. You’re simply an immortal.”

“Haha…”

“Then Master, what should we do now?”

“Guard here. I’ll deal with whoever comes in.”

“That’s a good idea. We’ll just wait here.”

Pa!

“Ouch! Master, why did you hit me?”

“When did I hit you?”

The master’s expression changed and he quickly said, “Stand back. There’s someone in the hall.”

That person was so frightened that he quickly retreated. But as he retreated, his eyes suddenly widened in fear, and cold sweat instantly flowed down his forehead.

“Master… Master, save me.”

“What…”

The master looked at the two people who appeared behind him and his pupils constricted. In the next second, he shouted, “When did you guys come in? Prepare to die.”

After shouting, he quickly threw a talisman at Chu Luo and Li Yan.

Chu Luo raised her hand and the talisman ignited in midair.

Li Yan pointed the dagger in his hand against the ordinary person’s back and said in a low voice, “Don’t move.”

The cold sweat on the forehead of that ordinary person fell even more.

Chu Luo took two steps forward and looked at the master who had a look of disbelief. She asked, “Whose people are you? Where did the others go?”

“Do you think I’ll tell you? Hmph, young brat, you think you can get anything from me just because you know a few petty tricks? Dream on.”

The master felt that the talisman he had thrown at her just now was too weak, and that was why the young girl in front of him had managed to escape. He hardened his heart and threw out three talismans.

The three talismans flew towards Chu Luo from different angles.

Chu Luo stood there without moving. When the talismans approached her, they spontaneously combusted again.

“Is this talisman drawn by a three-year-old child? Why is it so harmless?”

Chu Luo finished asking in a maddening tone and said, “Then let me teach you what a lethal talisman is.”

After saying that, she slowly took out a talisman from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and threw it at the master’s head.

The master didn’t take Chu Luo’s talisman seriously at all and even mocked, “What kind of talisman can a young girl like you draw?”

In the next moment.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning exploded above the master’s head. After a wave of black smoke, the master’s hair stood on end, and his face seemed to be covered in a layer of black coal.

The entire hall became unusually quiet. It was so quiet that the person with the dagger pressed against him swallowed his saliva with difficulty and called out with difficulty, “Master?”

The moment that person shouted, the master fell straight down.

Bang!

That person was instantly scared out of his wits.

Chu Luo looked at the so-called master who had fainted and turned to look at that person.

That person cowered under Chu Luo’s gaze. “I… I’ll talk, I’ll talk.”

“Then tell me.”

“I’m from the Qin family.”

“Where did the Qin family go?”

“They… they went to the tomb.”

When Chu Luo heard this, she pursed her lips in displeasure.

Li Yan then asked in a low voice, “Does that tunnel lead to the tomb?”

“I…”

“You refuse to tell the truth?” Li Yan pressed the tip of the knife into this person’s singlet.

That person’s body trembled and he quickly corrected himself. “No. It leads to a robbers’ tunnel.”

“How many experts did the Qin family bring? Where are the people from the Duanmu family and the other sects?”

“The Qin family brought six experts. We haven’t seen the others.”

“Hmph!”

In the next second, the tip of the knife stabbed into that person’s body.

“Uh… you…”

Li Yan drew out his dagger and walked to Chu Luo’s side with a cold expression. He looked at the master who had fallen to the ground and said to Chu Luo, “Let’s go take a look first.”

Chu Luo nodded and the two of them went down the hole.

The robbers’ tunnel was freshly dug. Chu Luo used Li Yan’s flashlight to look at it and said to him, “The Qin family actually knew to dig a hole from here to the tomb. This way, they’ll be separated from the other families.”

Li Yan merely responded with an “Mm”.

The two of them walked for about half an hour before they felt the wind flowing in front.

“We’re about to reach the exit.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, the two of them concealed themselves again.

There was indeed someone guarding the exit. It was the Qin family’s private guards.

After the two of them walked out, they saw a desert oasis lake. At the edge of the lake, there were several large tents. There was a huge hole beside the tent. It seemed to be a robbers’ tunnel.

The moment Li Yan came out, he quietly dealt with the people guarding the cave.

The two of them walked to the tent, and there were actually only a few Qin family private guards guarding it.

The two of them appeared in front of them. Before these people could react, Li Yan had dealt with them.

Chu Luo walked to the side of the robbers’ tunnel and frowned. “These people have already gone down.”

Li Yan walked over, squatted down, and rubbed some sand on his fingers. “This tunnel was probably dug three days ago.”

After saying that, he stood up and said, “These people have been in there for three days and still haven’t come out. This proves that they haven’t found what they’re looking for.”

Chu Luo said affirmatively, “Yes, they haven’t found the door to the tomb yet.”

Phoenix had said that when she disappeared, her masters had used all their abilities to seal the entire Priest Hall. Later on, the king had built the Imperial Mausoleum beside the Priest Hall, so the entire Imperial Mausoleum should be sealed. It was impossible for anyone to enter.

So what exactly happened during these three days since these people went down? No one knew.
