C206 Partner Withdrawal
On this day, he arrived at the village and discovered that there was something off about this place. Everyone's faces were filled with an aura of death, and the village was covered in dark clouds.
Chen En felt that something was wrong, so he held the compass and stepped on the Seven Stars Steps to check the surroundings of the village.
This investigation had really allowed him to find out the problem, and the crux of the problem was where the old Bai Family residence was currently located.
At that time, the Bai Family had not built a house yet, but it was still a bare field.
The empty area was surrounded by lush and verdant trees, and only the place where the Old Bai Family resided, was a piece of empty ground without a single blade of grass.
Chen En walked around and found that the place was filled with Yin Qi. It seemed that the situation was not like it had been one or two days, otherwise, it would have been impossible to hide the surrounding villages from the dark clouds.
Although Chen En felt that there was a lot of Yin Qi there, he didn't know where it came from. This Yin Qi came from in a strange way, so he was unable to find where it came from.
He quietly stayed in the village, inquiring about the situation while trying to change it.
After staying there for half a month, he finally got some information from a hunter who had been hunting in the mountains.
There had always been a legend in this place that an army general had been buried here in ancient times, and that military general had been a man who had done all sorts of evil deeds before his death. There were hundreds of innocent people who had died at his hands.
So in order to avoid being dug up after death, he secretly ordered people to build a mausoleum for himself in the mountains. Afterwards, he killed all those who knew so that there would be no future troubles.
After knowing this news, coupled with the local situation, Chen En felt that the place where not even a blade of grass grew was probably the military general's tomb.
However, he was baffled. Logically speaking, when he was alive, he should have killed countless people with an extremely vicious aura.
This kind of person would not even dare to come close to his body when he was alive, much less after death.
If he died, his soul would definitely transform into an evil spirit, and he would be punished in hell.
The graveyard that was left with the corpses was filled with evil spirits and ghosts. How could such a heavy yin aura be gathered here?!
He wondered, and then something happened to the village.
A few villagers who had gone up to chop firewood all died on the mountain. Their faces were filled with fear, as if they were scared to death.
Chen En knew that this was caused by evil spirits, and they were extremely vicious.
He knew that he could no longer delay things any further. Thus, one night, he brought along the magic tools, charms, and other tools that his master had passed to him. Then, he stealthily carried a shovel and went up the mountain.
Following the directions of the compass and the digging of the shovel, he soon dug a deep hole in the ground.
It was a taboo to dig a grave for bad people, but Chen En couldn't care less at this moment.
He used a shovel to dig the cave and directly inserted it into the main tomb.
Just as he was about to open the tomb, a gust of extremely cold wind blew out.
Chen En felt a chill go down his spine. He had been travelling with his master for many years and had never encountered such a situation. He knew things were not going well, so he threw away the shovel and jumped into the tomb with the compass in his hand.
It was completely dark inside the tomb chamber. Chen En quickly performed a hand sign and touched his eyes with his fingers.
He originally had the Yin Yang Eyes and was able to see ghosts. At that moment, he also had a curse in his eyes that allowed him to see things in the dark.
There wasn't much decoration in the tomb chamber, only a sarcophagus was tied up by iron chains and Chen En's attention was attracted to the sarcophagus that was hanging in the air.
In ancient times, it was common for people to be buried in suspended coffins. Firstly, it was to prevent the mosquitoes and mice from biting the corpse, and secondly, it was to prevent them from biting the corpse.
However, there was something different about this coffin. Chen En held the compass and walked around in a circle. He suddenly felt suspicious.
On the ground below the coffin was a squarish, sunken sink. At each corner of the sink stood a statue of the Evil God.0
In the sink, there was a greyish liquid that emitted a bone-chilling cold.
The stone beast statue inside the tomb chamber can also be understood, it has the meaning of protecting the tomb chamber.
However, Chen En was puzzled when he let go of four terrifying statues of evil spirits.
Speaking of Chen En's master, he was definitely an outstanding figure in the sect. He had brought Chen En on a wandering journey for many years, which had given him a lot of experience.
Therefore, even though the layout of the tomb was strange, Chen En could guess something.
It was as if the person who built the tomb wasn't trying to reincarnate soon after the general died, but to lock down his soul so that the formation he had set up could torture it until it completely collapsed.
The evil ghost statue and the black sink were both used to imprison the general's soul.
The iron chains were used to trap the general's body. It caused his soul to be unable to borrow the corpse to return his soul, bringing disaster to the world.
Understanding this, Chen En couldn't help but praise Senior Master in his heart.
Water is yin, it is extremely easy to gather souls and souls from undead. This senior used water to lock onto the soul of the general and then used this statue of the evil ghost to make it suffer day and night. This is definitely worse than torturing his body.
However, he seemed to have overlooked one detail, which was that whether it was the statue of the evil spirit, the sink, or the iron chains that locked the floating coffin, all of them would decay and age.
The General's evil spirit, on the other hand, continued to grow more resentful as it was tormented day and night.
If any of these things were loosened, he would break through the shackles and come out, and at that time, he would become a terrible monster of the world.
As a member of the sect, Chen En had followed his master around since he was young to capture ghosts to drive away evil. Naturally, Chen En couldn't let things turn out like this.
However, he also understood that Senior Master, who had set this trap for the soul of the General, must also be a very powerful person.
Either this person had enmity with this general, or he was trying to uphold justice for the heavens and punish this general who had killed countless times in his lifetime.
Regardless of which conjecture it was, it was a grudge from his previous life. Chen En had to first resolve the crisis before he could consider which one.
Chen En took out a few Talisman Paper s that his master passed to him from the things he carried with him and locked the sink into it according to the Big Dipper's method.
Judging from the situation of the surrounding villages, the general who was trapped in the trough should not have the ability to break through the barrier.
It might have only discovered some of the gaps in the sink, so it had infiltrated its resentment and expanded it, slowly affecting the environment around it.
His actions were actually done with the intention of corroding the trenches that trapped him, as well as the possible formation formed by the four evil spirits in the surroundings, in order to break out.
Chen En used the Big Dipper Formation to reinforce the energy that was trapping him, but he could only maintain it for a short period of time. Sooner or later, Chen En would break the energy that was trapping him and escape from the sink.
Chen En knew that with his cultivation, it would be difficult for him to face this General's evil spirit head on.
He could only use the power of the heaven and earth to eliminate this Evil Spirit.
Therefore, other than setting up the Big Dipper Formation in the tomb chamber, Chen En also placed a few small red flags in the corner of the tomb chamber. This was one of the magic tools that his master passed to him, and it was also the sharp weapon Chen En used to exorcise ghosts and eliminate evil.
