After leaving that dry well, the group continued to advance, following Su Yang as they explored Liu Village.
After a while, they arrived at the location of the village chief of Liu Village. “Sufriend Su, does the village chief of Liu Village have a significant impact on the shattering of the enclosed world?” Cao Tianle didn’t say much now, as he had investigated this place with the other team members and hadn’t obtained any information.
Since Su Yang had come here, there was likely something unusual.
Su Yang nodded, “Yes, there is indeed something amiss here.”
“Is there anything unusual about this village chief?” Cao Tianle shook his head, saying, “I investigated before, and there was nothing out of the ordinary about this Liu Village chief. He’s quite normal.”
“He basically helps the villagers with their problems and does his job.’
Upon hearing Cao Tianle’s response, Su Yang didn’t say much and simply gestured for everyone to follow him inside.
Su Yang directly took everyone to find the village chief.
“Village Chief Liu, do you need any help from us?” Since there didn’t seem to be any unusual behavior, Su Yang planned to check if they could be of any assistance.
Village Chief Liu was momentarily stunned when he found himself surrounded by the group. He smiled and said, “No need, I don’t have anything that requires your help. If there’s something, I’ll call for you.”
Village Chief Liu waved his hand with a smile.
Upon hearing Village Chief Liu’s response, Su Yang didn’t press further. He signaled for everyone to leave, and once outside, he told Cao Tianle, “Leave one person behind to keep an eye on Village Chief Liu and record any unusual behavior.”
“Understood.”
Cao Tianle readily agreed and left Gu Daofeng behind.
After making the arrangements, Su Yang and the others continued on to the next location.
This time, they arrived outside a villager’s house, but this villager was a bit special as they were the village’s doctor.
Su Yang led the group directly inside.
They carried out a similar inquiry.
“Doctor Liu, do you need our help with anything?” Su Yang asked.
Doctor Liu first scrutinized everyone from head to toe. “Do all of you possess the cultivation of the Qi Condensation Stage?”
Su Yang immediately felt that this was promising.
“That’s right. Do you have anything we can assist you with?”
Doctor Liu hesitated, and after a moment of contemplation, he finally said, “If you can open the seal in the dry well in Liu Village, I can help you with alchemy. You only need to provide the main materials, and there’s no need for you to provide the auxiliary materials.”
The seal in the dry well?
The group immediately remembered the dry well they had explored recently.
So these two matters were connected.
Opening the seal in the dry well would grant them an opportunity for alchemical assistance. But what materials would they use for alchemy?
Su Yang thought about what Cao Tianle and the others had mentioned regarding the next event in the afternoon.
In the deep mountains, a Qi Condensation Stage Level Three boar demon would emerge to cause trouble, seeking revenge.
The reason was that the boar they had killed was female, and the one seeking vengeance was male.
In the past, the injured Daoist would deal with the Qi Condensation Stage Level Three male boar demon, taking its heart’s blood and demon core. Cao Tianle and the others wouldn’t have had the chance.
If Su Yang could handle the Qi Condensation Stage Level Three male boar demon, would that mean they could obtain its heart’s blood and demon core?
With those materials, even if the injured Daoist didn’t help them create elixirs to enhance their strength, Doctor Liu could assist them.
Elixirs made from the heart’s blood and demon core of a Qi Condensation Stage Level Three boar demon would undoubtedly boost their strength significantly.
However, Su Yang needed to clarify one thing at the moment, and that was what exactly was sealed inside this seal-like object.
“That’s not a problem. But I’d like to know what is sealed inside,” Su Yang asked solemnly.
“Inside is the restless spirit of my daughter. When she was young, she was infected by demons and turned into a ghostly demon.
The village chief invited a Taoist from the outside to seal her spirit in there, and with the power of the formation, they’ve been continuously suppressing the influence of the demons.
It has been ten years now, and the influence of the demonic entity should have mostly been eradicated.
However, my daughter’s spirit should have become extremely weak without the influence of the demon.
Her consciousness should have partially returned. If we continue this way, she will disappear from the world. I wish to see my daughter’s spirit one last time in her final moments,” Doctor Liu expressed his request.
He had harbored this idea for a long time but didn’t dare to bring it up with the village chief.
He had kept it to himself until Su Yang and his group arrived, offering a different perspective.
It was a somewhat risky idea.
If this were the real world, Su Yang might need to think it over more and wouldn’t easily help Doctor Liu.
After all, nobody knew what was inside the seal, whether it was genuinely weak or just pretending, and the potential risk of releasing an uncontrollable demon was significant.
However, this was an enclosed world woven by an evil deity.
Even if the sealed entity was powerful and could cause great havoc when released, it wouldn’t matter much.
They had the opportunity to experiment and time to rectify any mistakes..
