Jiangli glanced at Xun Tianhai with some disdain. "This is certainly not the true Eighteen Dark Nails; these must be his own reconstruction from fragments he found. They aren’t orthodox, and he also knew that the Eighteen Dark Nails he arranged were incomplete. Thus, he used dismembered souls as the ’meridian points’ to trap them here forever. To say that this place is a scenic area is misleading. The current Yan Mountain is, in reality, a huge site Master Mu arranged for nurturing corpses and refining souls."

Xun Tianhai’s complexion shook violently. "Nurturing corpses... refining souls..."

Director Xu and the others didn’t quite understand the meaning of these words, but just the four words ’nurturing corpses, refining souls’ were enough to shock them for an entire year.

How could someone nurture corpses and refine souls in such a place?

This is just too terrifying!

Looking out over the vast Yan Mountain, it seemed as if every corner exuded a sinister energy, with the mountain breezes swaying as though they were chilling gusts of wind.

Director Xu didn’t even dare to think that right beneath his feet, there might be dismembered corpses.

Just the thought of it made him feel suffocated.

He couldn’t help but silently step aside.

Duan Jianchuan and Xia Xin, having some experience, both fell silent after hearing Jiangli’s narration.

For a moment, the mountain fell into an eerie silence.

Only the howling of the wind remained.

It was as if waves of ghostly wails were crying out.

It made one’s hair stand on end out of nowhere, and they dared not breathe.

"Then, what do we do now?" Xun Tianhai was the first to snap out of the shock. He took a deep breath, knowing that now was not the time to be astonished.

Jiangli looked down at the two unconscious people from the Unusual Affairs Management Office. She took out two Soul-Calming Talismans and two Purification Talismans, placing them one by one on their bodies.

Xun Tianhai recognized the talismans at a glance and could see that the craftsmanship of these two talismans was much stronger than any he had seen before.

His heart trembled even more at the thought of who this young girl really was.

"First, we need to find the meridian point; there should be something underneath it that needs to be dealt with. I’m going to set up a Puppet Substituting Evil Array."

After Jiangli took care of the two unconscious individuals, she stood up and asked Xun Tianhai, "Do you have any vermilion and copper coins?"

Xun Tianhai was startled but quickly nodded, "Yes!"

He signaled to Xie Shan with a glance.

Xie Shan, as if just realizing the situation, ran to the side, fetched a small box, and opened it on the ground before Jiangli. The box was filled with copper coins, vermilion, talisman paper, and some peach wood plaques.

"You’re well-prepared."

Jiangli reached out and selected some copper coins and peach wood plaques, saying, "I’ll borrow these."

Xun Tianhai asked worriedly, "Is there anything else we need to do?"

"You all just stay put here, don’t wander, don’t touch anything, in case something happens. If you trigger any of the mechanism arrays, I won’t be able to save you," Jiangli warned as she surveyed the group and then turned to Fu Shiyan, "Fu, you stay here as well. I’ll come back for you later."

Fu Shiyan’s brows twitched slightly, but he nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Jiangli turned around, wrapped the copper coins with Spirit Talismans, and threw them into the pit where the limbs were buried. She then inserted the peach wood plaques into the ground three inches before the pit.

After finishing, Jiangli dusted off her hands and said, "Xia Xin, pick up the stuff, you’re coming with me."

Xia Xin, who had been watching intently, immediately nodded, picked up the peach wood plaques and copper coins from the nearby box, and scurried after Jiangli.

Jiangli, with an unchanged expression, walked into the mountain under the cover of night.

Xia Xin stumbled along behind Jiangli.

Seeing the two figures walking away, Xun Tianhai and Director Xu were somewhat worried.

Director Xu couldn’t help but whisper, "Shiyan, does the Abbot really not need our help?"
