Chapter 310: Chapter 200 The Use of Divine Evil_2

Secondly, he would integrate it with the Daluo Dharma Body.

His Daluo Dharma Body had already been repaired—whether it was to enhance the quality of the Dharma Body or to ignite the soul fire, it was a cause for celebration.

However, the characteristic of this fortune was to repair the Dharma Body, yet doing so was now useless; it would simply waste something valuable.

Just like initially at the Chaotic Burial Mound, he absorbed a considerable amount of fortune from the mountain’s Tai Sui, but once the Dharma Body was repaired, absorbing more was pointless.

Li Yan pondered for a moment but decided to let the Daluo Dharma Body absorb it anyway.

After all, it was now the foundation of everything for him.

Even if it wasted an opportunity, he needed to understand what effect this reward from the Yin Bureau had on the Dharma Body.

Thinking this, he immediately clenched the Hook Paper, and his mind sank into the Dantian.

As the Daluo Dharma Body operated, a cold, bone-chilling breath flowed along the Hook Paper and was absorbed by the Daluo Dharma Body.

Inside the Dantian, the Daluo Dharma Body was quickly covered with white frost.

There was something here!

Li Yan revealed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This Evil Qi was indeed extraordinary!

He could feel that it contained fortune to repair the Dharma Body, but more of it surged toward the Soul Hook.

There were two effects!

No wonder, this object came from the Yin Bureau and could enhance the power of the Magic Artifact; in some sense, wasn’t the Soul Hook also a type of Divine Skills Magic Artifact?

The Soul Hook’s length suddenly increased, growing an additional three feet to over two meters.

This length was now comparable to a common long spear.

The true lethality of the Soul Hook also became apparent.

In close combat, even someone with Force Transformation wouldn’t stand a chance!

This was the second type of breath that could enhance the Soul Hook.

There was also the previous Chu Witch Token.

Li Yan vaguely felt that the powers of these two were different, but perhaps there was some connection between them.

Feeling good, he got up and went out the door, planning to call everyone for a meal and discuss leaving Shangjin City.

Just as he knocked on Sha Lifei’s door, he saw the old man looking unnatural, and there was still a smell of gunpowder lingering on the table.

"Uncle Sha, this really isn’t the place."

Li Yan said somewhat speechlessly, "Let’s settle down first and find a quiet place. Even if you make a big noise, it won’t matter."

"Hehe..."

Sha Lifei had thick skin and wouldn’t care about this; he quickly changed the topic and whispered, "Brother Yan, I thought about it last night, the one who likely killed the Fox Immortal must be that youngster Bai Ruoxu."

"This guy might have some new gadget in his possession, scheming for the coal spirit, perhaps he also knows the formula..."

"No hurry!"

Li Yan’s expression turned grave and he shook his head lightly, "This matter isn’t that simple; let’s not get involved for now and let the Captain Bureau test these troubled waters first."

"Getting too involved might actually turn us into targets."

"That makes sense."

Sha Lifei immediately understood and said no more.

Li Yan then knocked on Lv San’s door, only to find that the youngster had already woken up and managed to get some raw meat and goat milk, and was now playing with the little white fox.

Li Yan smiled slightly, wanting to come over.

Unfortunately, the little creature was very wary of him and directly burrowed into Lv San’s arms, only staring at him with its eyes.

Li Yan smiled wryly and didn’t insist, merely reminding Lv San to pack up before he left the room.

Just as he stepped out into the corridor, he saw Wang Daoxuan, dressed neatly in a Daoist robe and holding a horsetail whisk, with a pack on his back, obviously about to leave.

"Daoist, where are you going?"

"I’m going to see Old Liu."

Understanding immediately, Li Yan nodded.

Old Liu was the coroner who conducted autopsies yesterday.

Wang Daoxuan, seeing him affected by Corpse Poison and Yin Qi, felt compassion and told him he would perform a ritual later and teach him some Secret Techniques.

Of course, all free of charge.

Li Yan certainly didn’t mind; after all, Wang Daoxuan was inherently kind-hearted and had helped him with advice for free as well.

"Let’s go, I’ll also come along to see."

Moved by an impulse, Li Yan immediately followed Wang Daoxuan out.

Shangjin City wasn’t large; the two left the inn and turned into a small alley after walking just a few steps and inquired several times before they located Old Liu’s residence.

Being a coroner was a despised occupation, and everyone was somewhat apprehensive, not to mention that Old Liu was not truly a Mystical Sect member, so his life was naturally destitute.

His home was at the deepest end of the alley, close to the edge of the city.

Not only was the house dilapidated, but the drainage was also poor.

Wang Daoxuan shook his head as he looked around and pointed toward the city wall, "He’s already invaded by Corpse Poison and Yin Evil Qi, and living in such a damp place, it’s a good thing he met us, otherwise Old Liu would surely become a zombie after his death."

Li Yan looked up and saw the towering city wall covering Old Liu’s house, blocking out the sun for most of the time, except at noon.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

After knocking, Old Liu took a long while to come to the door, his face pale and covered in cold sweat.

He was clearly surprised to see them.

He had thought Wang Daoxuan was just making polite conversation and didn’t expect them to really come to help, which made him somewhat flustered.

"Daoist, please, come in quickly."

He limped, his face covered in cold sweat as he chuckled, "My rheumatism is acting up again, so the door was slow to open, please forgive me, Daoist."

Wang Daoxuan’s eyes were full of compassion as he shook his head, "No worries, don’t rush, let me perform a ritual to remove the Yin Evil Qi from you; that should help."

He immediately got to work and began to set up the magic platform.

A wooden table was placed in the small courtyard, albeit shabby, but sufficient for setting up the magic platform. With Li Yan’s help, it was quickly completed.

Old Liu, used to seeing corpses, though initially apprehensive, soon calmed down and respectfully stood aside to wait.

At this moment, the noon sunlight shone down.

The previously dark and damp courtyard was instantly imbued with vitality.
