Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 191: Bell of Chaos, Unearth the Corpse Spirit

"Spare me, senior!"

With a scream, the person was directly stuffed into the butcher's body, merging into one.

By now, of the five people who entered the room, only the thick-browed cultivator trapped by the Mountain-Covering Mud remained; the other four had all been dealt with.

The process wasn't complicated either; it took just two or three breaths for Xu Hei to swiftly settle the matter.

The remaining person was the one responsible for recruiting rogue cultivators, with a cultivation level reaching the Great Perfection Foundation Establishment, the strongest among them.

"Are you opposing the Chu Tian Alliance? I advise you to release me quickly, lest you bring trouble upon yourself!"

Surprisingly, this thick-browed cultivator didn't beg for mercy like those Xu Hei had encountered before but instead started to threaten.

When something is unusual, there must be something strange.

This person was trapped, merely at the Foundation Establishment stage, and couldn't possibly be a match for Xu Hei. Where did he get the courage?

"How about we split the treasures here between us? I won't tell anyone and will even help you cover it up, saying these people died at the hands of corpse puppets. How about it?"

The thick-browed cultivator showed no fear in his eyes, looking at Xu Hei with a flicker in his gaze, speaking in a deep voice, "This is the best choice for you, but if you dare to kill me, I guarantee you will..."

"Whoosh!"

Xu Hei couldn't be bothered with nonsense. Three flying swords shot straight out, but they suddenly veered off course, striking the stone wall instead.

"Hmm?"

Xu Hei raised an eyebrow and charged forward, but something bizarre happened. His movements distorted, causing him to dash to the side, missing once again.

"Indeed, I felt something was off earlier!"

Xu Hei's eyes flickered. He tried to move left, but his body involuntarily went right.

Not only was his puppet affected, but even his true self was influenced, though not as exaggerated as the puppet.

The butcher stumbled slightly, almost tripping over his own feet.

Xu Hei immediately stood still, maintaining his current state.

"What kind of technique is this? It actually disrupts my sense of direction," Xu Hei thought warily.

Once he lost his sense of direction, what use was speed? He would just crash around like a headless fly, perfectly countering his Ever-changing Fish and Dragon technique.

"My friend, I advise you not to make things difficult for yourself. We are both smart people, and you don't want to waste time, right?"

At this moment, the Mountain-Covering Mud on the thick-browed cultivator was also falling off to the side. The man wore a cold smile, his eyes gleaming as he was about to break free.

Xu Hei's eyes turned icy. In the past, he would have studied such a strange method.

But now, he didn't plan to waste time. He directly took out the Black Dragon Pagoda, quickly enlarging it to fill the entire room, crushing down like a towering mountain.

The man's face changed dramatically, instantly smashed by the massive shadow, his body exploding into pieces with a "bang," not even having time to utter a sound, his form and spirit annihilated.

The Black Dragon Pagoda's attack direction deviated slightly, but its massive size crushed everything in all directions, rendering the small deviation useless.

Even some equipment in the back was smashed to pieces, collapsing along the way.

It was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!

This cultivator never expected Xu Hei to have such a terrifying weapon.

Xu Hei consumed thirty percent of his True Qi, quickly storing away the Black Dragon Pagoda.

"Reaching the mid-stage is different. If it were the initial stage, that move just now would have consumed at least half of my True Qi," Xu Hei thought to himself.

In fact, Xu Hei had other ways to deal with his opponent. Once he adapted to the disorienting feeling, he could have handled it with his true self.

But time was pressing, and he worried that if this person delayed, something unexpected might happen.

It was all for safety.

After dealing with this person, the chaotic feeling disappeared, and Xu Hei breathed a sigh of relief, collecting the Mountain-Covering Mud and retrieving the storage bags from all the corpses.

The thick-browed cultivator's storage bag was crushed by the Black Dragon Pagoda, but one item remained intact, catching Xu Hei's attention.

Xu Hei reached out and grabbed an ancient bell into his hand.

The bell was bronze-colored, inscribed with countless spell imprints, impenetrable by Divine Sense.

Xu Hei pondered for a moment, then flicked the ancient bell with his finger.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The bell vibrated slightly, sending ripples throughout the room. Xu Hei immediately felt dizzy, and his puppet fell into a state of confusion, unable to distinguish left from right, up from down.

"What a magical bell!"

Xu Hei could tell that the bell was imbued with some strange spell, activated with a simple flick.

Its effect was to make people lose their sense of direction, especially effective against puppets!

Xu Hei probed it with his Divine Sense, but the imprints inside the bell were extremely strong, requiring at least a stick of incense's time to erase.

This puzzled Xu Hei. The bell's owner was dead, so it shouldn't be this strong.

Could it be that the Divine Sense imprint belonged to someone else?

"Roar!"

A strange cry came from outside the door, and a green-haired zombie rushed in like a flash, baring its ferocious teeth.

"Boom!"

Seeing this, Xu Hei flicked the ancient bell, sending ripples that caused the green-haired zombie to change direction, crashing headfirst into the wall and embedding itself.

Ji Ying flashed forward, instantly devouring the corpse puppet.

"It seems effective against corpse puppets," Xu Hei thought.

He had plenty of ways to deal with corpse puppets, so having another one wouldn't hurt.

However, he needed to quickly erase the Divine Sense imprint to avoid future trouble.

Xu Hei split his attention, using his Divine Sense to erase the imprint while controlling the puppet to examine the surroundings.

The room wasn't large, with a giant pill furnace and two smaller ones, one of which was damaged in the collision.

Nearby, a hidden compartment was sealed with talismans, containing jade bottles of pills and some ancient medicinal herbs preserved to this day.

Xu Hei had experience with such things; once the ancient sealing talismans were removed, they would turn to dust.

After a brief consideration, Xu Hei used dragon scales to carve out the hidden compartments, collecting them with the talismans into Void Stones.

Each pill bottle was labeled with the name of the pill. Xu Hei glanced over them, finding them to be ordinary pills, mostly second-grade, with only two being third-grade beginners.

Xu Hei accepted them all without hesitation.

While Xu Hei was excavating, he suddenly uncovered an empty space.

It was as if he had peeled away the outer shell, revealing another world inside.

"Is there something inside?"

Xu Hei stared at the stone wall before him, took two steps back, and probed with his Divine Sense, only to be blocked by a strong seal, unable to investigate further.

This seal was far superior to the ancient sealing talismans.

Xu Hei's eyes flickered as he tore off more dragon scales, digging from various angles.

Moments later.

A small space of three cubic meters appeared before him. Inside, there was a giant jade bottle as tall as a person, resembling a pill bottle.

However, the pill bottle had a human head on top.

It was a woman's head, already turned into a corpse puppet, covered in creepy yellow hair.
