Chapter 164: Bestowing Magical Artifacts—Soul Chasing Banner, Mystic Thunder Gloves, Lightning Boots
Qin Chuan slowly descended from the sky.
He had constantly been paying attention to the three of them.
Although cultivation depended on the individual, he was still worried about their safety. After all, the enemy was dangerous.
“Sect Master!”
Qin Chuan landed on the ground. Lyu Yuhua and the others immediately stepped forward and bowed.
Qin Chuan looked at Lyu Yuhua. “Grandpa Lyu, I didn’t expect your divination arts to be so profound. You’ve truly broadened my horizons.”
Lyu Yuhua smiled modestly. “It’s all because Sect Master taught me well.”
“I only taught you the basic techniques and incantations. You earned your high level through your own hard work.” Qin Chuan replied.
Old Lu and Old Liu were confused.
Did Sect Master teach us the same things?
“Sect Master, why don’t we remember learning the spell Old Lyu just used?” Old Lu verbalized his confusion.
“This is the Suppression incantation.”
“Suppression incantation?” Old Lu and Old Liu were puzzled.
Lyu Yuhua interrupted, “Old Lu, Old Liu, divination isn’t just about doing readings. There are many things to learn.
“Although Sect Master only taught us the basics, they alone are enough for us to study for a lifetime.”
“Oh! I see.” Old Lu and Old Liu blushed and were instantly enlightened.
They had not mastered their skills enough. The Sect Master wasn’t biased.
Qin Chuan approached the toyol.
He stretched and tapped on the surface of the transparent golden bell, and a ripple spread out. Black gas suddenly rose from the toyol inside.
The toyol became extremely restless. Finally, it screamed and crazily slammed the bell.
Qin Chuan had an indifferent expression.
After a few seconds, the black gas on the toyol’s body faded. Its body also began to shrink until it became a dark red flame that was the size of a fist.
A baby’s face could be seen wandering around inside the flame.
However, the expression on this baby’s face was especially ferocious and terrifying. It seemed to be screaming something.
Lyu Yuhua and company walked over, looking curiously at the flame inside.
“Sect Master, what is this?”
“A soul.”
A soul???
The three people were shocked.
“Sect Master, do souls really exist?”
Qin Chuan laughed. “Even cultivators exist. Why would souls not exist?”
“However, souls usually don’t carry much energy. Once they leave the human body, they will be wiped away by the Yang Qi of the world. By then, they aren’t dangerous.”
He continued, “But this soul was refined by a black magic practitioner using a secret technique. That’s why it can remain in this world, but it can only appear at night.
“Also, look at the baby’s face. It was formed from resentment.
“Once a soul’s resentment is too strong, it can turn into a malicious ghost.
“The words of malicious ghosts are very powerful. They can kill people as easily as drinking water. Some can even threaten us, cultivators.
“You all have experienced how dangerous this raging ghost was.
“If not for Old Lyu, all of you would probably have died here.”
They nodded. It was as Qin Chuan had said.
“Sect Master, if malicious ghosts are so dangerous, then this one before us…” Lyu Yuhua did not continue, but his meaning was clear.
“I’ve already thought of a solution.”
After speaking, Qin Chuan tapped on their foreheads, and a white light flashed.
Scripture appeared in their minds, and they shuddered.
Qin Chuan said, “What I just gave you is a scripture used to expiate the sins of the dead.
“The ghost in front of you carries deep resentment. You can recite the scriptures and release them so that it can escape suffering.
“Atoning for the sins for the dead is also great karma for you.”
“Yes, Sect Master!”
Then, they surrounded the ghost in a triangular fashion.
After sitting down, they began to chant the scripture.
Since this ghost was a malicious ghost, it was not easy to expiate its sins.
They had spent five minutes before completing the entire process.
“Ding! Lyu Yuhua, Lu Baoguo, and Liu Jinwen have successfully transformed expiate the sins of a ghost together. The host has received 10 points.”
A system notification sounded in Qin Chuan’s mind.
Qin Chuan was stunned. He didn’t expect to also be able to gain points from the disciples of the sect expiating the sins of the undead. It was quite unexpected.
Now, all the resentment within the ghost had been purified, and it had turned into a pure spirit.
Lyu Yuhua and company opened their eyes.
Although they looked exhausted, it was worth it.
In the process, they saw the various experiences of the soul while it was alive, and their frame of mind subtly changed.
“Sect Master, I have a request,” said Lyu Yuhua.
“Speak.”
“Sect Master, through this incident, I’ve understood the meaning of cultivation. The world is so big. I want to go out there and explore.
“I mainly intend to use my meager power to purify more of the souls in such situations.”
With that, Old Lu and Old Liu also added, “Sect Master, we feel the same way. Please agree to let us go.”
“Since that’s the case…” Looking at their determined gazes, Qin Chuan pondered for a moment.
He exchanged three magical artifacts from the Merchant Shop.
Three magical artifacts floated in front of him.
“The Soul Chasing Banner can both summon souls and suppress them. Moreover, the more souls it absorbs, the more powerful it will be. It’s a magical artifact that can grow.”
“Mystic Thunder Gloves. It increases one’s strength after activation. At the same time, it also carries a certain level of defense. When attacking, it will bring about thunder damage.”
“Lightning Boots, after activation, greatly increases movement speed, just like lightning.”
Qin Chuan gave a simple introduction of the magical artifacts.
“Grandpa Lyu, I will bestow the Soul Chasing Banner to you.
“However, you must remember that the souls absorbed by this banner must be purified or you will be in danger of backlash.”
Qin Chuan casually waved his hand, and the Soul Chasing Banner floated in front of Lyu Yuhua.
Lyu Yuhua did not refuse and accepted the Soul Chasing Banner with both hands. “I understand. Thank you, Sect Master, for bestowing this artifact.”
After that, Qin Chuan handed the Mystic Thunder Gloves to Old Lu and the Lightning Boots to Old Liu.
After they obtained the magical artifacts, they couldn’t wait to try them out.
Now there happened to be a pure soul here, so Lyu Yuhua activated the Soul Chasing Banner and absorbed it.
After absorbing the soul, the attributes of the Soul Chasing Banner immediately changed. However, the increase was very small. After all, it was only one soul.
Old Lu put on his Mystic Thunder Gloves and punched the air a few times. Instantly, blue electric arcs flashed, accompanied by sizzling sounds.
Old Liu, on the other hand, wore lightning boots as he ran around. His figure was like that of The Flash as he flashed past and ran back and forth several times.
…
After experiencing the joy brought by the magical artifacts, the three of them came before Qin Chuan and bowed again.
“Thank you, Sect Master, for bestowing the artifacts.”
They were extremely satisfied with the magical artifacts given by Qin Chuan.
“Then when do the three of you plan to leave?” Qin Chuan asked.
Lyu Yuhua and company looked at one another and discussed for a while before replying, “It should be within the next two or three days.”
“Alright, I’ll bring you back to the sect first then.”
“Yes!”
With a wave of his hand, Qin Chuan opened the secret pathway to the sect.
After Qin Chuan sent Lyu Yuhua’s group back to the sect, he used a spell to repair the damages on the scene and restore it to its original state.
Then, he gave Li Zhongyun a call.
