Chapter 240: To Go or Not to Go
Fifty miles of travel was too simple for Lin Yun, and the closer Lin Yun got to Eighteen Miles Village, the more he felt that there were very few people coming and going, and in the end, there were almost no people.
When he saw the long wire fence, Lin Yun knew that Eighteen Mile Village had arrived, but he didn't expect that the political axe would actually use wire to enclose this place. When Lin Yun arrived here, it was still far from dark, but as soon as people came in, they obviously felt an eerie aura, as if there was a lifeless aura here.
All sides are barren withered grass and graves, and it seems that the old man said that this was once and is a cemetery. Lin Yun penetrated the wire barrier and entered this so-called Eighteen Mile Village. According to the old man's description, the Puhe River should be in a more inner place.
What made Lin Yun strange was that not only was there no human smell here, but even frogs, snakes, insects, and even birds rarely came. There is still such a place, why is there nothing wrong beyond this range? It's eighteen miles away.
The barren grass was littered with the dry bones of all kinds of wild beasts, and even the occasional human skeleton. A soft groan came, and Zhuang Linyun heard it clearly in the silence of eighteen miles, and quickly moved to the place where the sound came out without hesitation.
A burly man was lying at the foot of half of the broken wall, his hands tightly covering his chest, his face was dead, and his eyes were blank without the slightest bit of life. Lin Yun knew at a glance that this person had no longer any vitality, and he was sucking life? Is there such a thing?
It's just that in the Tianhong Continent, all kinds of cultivation methods are emerging one after another, and I haven't heard of the cultivation methods that absorb vitality? But the person in front of him is obviously out of life, if it is not the vitality sucked, is there any other reason? The moment the man saw Lin Yun, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, his head tilted, and he fell to the ground and died completely.
Lin Yun looked around, and there were broken walls everywhere. It seems that this should have been a small mountain village at one time, but as for whether it was Puhe or not, Lin Yun was not very sure. If it is Puhe, it stands to reason that the ruins of that small Taoist temple should still be there.
Lin Yun searched around here for a long time, but he didn't find any ruins of the Taoist temple. At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and when it was still bright, Lin Yun felt that it was very gloomy here, but now that it was dark, this feeling was even more obvious.
Suddenly, Lin Yun felt a thrill all over his body, as if something was about to come out of his body, and he felt uncomfortable. As soon as the star power was activated, this uncomfortable feeling disappeared. Lin Yun frowned, this was obviously not another reason, nor was it an illusion, someone must have plotted against him.
This person can silently plot against himself, it seems that he is not an idle person, is he an ancient martial artist who has cultivated to the extreme? Or is it a cultivator like yourself? It was the masked man he met in the West River Tower, and he also used tangible things when he sneaked up on himself, what kind of kung fu is this kind of silent sneak attack? At least I don't know how to do that.
I have practiced for many years, and I have a certain understanding of various cultivation techniques, but I have no impression of this kind of kung fu at all, and I can even say that I have almost never encountered it, should I ...... Lin Yun was thinking of this, the feeling that made people palpitate welled up in his heart, Lin Yun's face changed, and this time it was obviously dozens of times stronger than last time. Sure enough, it was someone who carried out a sneak attack on himself, or this kind of terrifying sneak attack, and now Lin Yun finally understood the cause of the man's death just now.
It turned out that someone really absorbed his vitality, Lin Yun's scalp was numb, and he really had this kind of exercise to absorb the vitality of life? It's so powerful, and it's so domineering. Could it be that this person is also a cultivator? Or is it a more advanced cultivation method than cultivation, but you don't know it?
In any case, he is absolutely unwilling to let Lin Yun leave now, no matter who it is, since he has been helpless against himself after sucking twice, it shows that he can still compete with this person. It seems that the spirit stones here should be real, how could Lin Yun leave just like this?
Even if he is not this person's opponent, Lin Yun will also try, in case he can't beat and then escape. The opportunity is just around the corner, let him leave without trying, but Lin Yun didn't want to do this, fortunately he didn't bring Yu Xi, it was too dangerous here.
Although he didn't see this guy who was plotting against him, Lin Yun also understood why people here always had various symptoms when they came, and why dozens of villages here disappeared decades ago.
It seems that the vitality of the dead people here has been absorbed by the people who plotted against themselves just now, and some people have been absorbed by some of the vitality, causing them to be in a trance when they go out. But according to the old man, this person can only absorb the range of eighteen miles at most, beyond this range, it is estimated that this person will not be able to absorb it.
What a powerful and domineering evil skill, he actually transforms other people's vitality into his own vitality for cultivation. I didn't expect that there was such a person here, this matter has nothing to do with Lin Yun, he is not a person who does good deeds and does not leave a name. But when it comes to spirit stones, even if this person is a very good person, Lin Yun also wants to see if he can get the spirit stones. It's just too important for him.
Lin Yun felt that the farther he went to the east, the stronger this feeling of seizing his heart and vitality became. But Lin Yun kept going in the direction of the strong induction, and at the same time, the star power was running, just letting this feeling still exist, but definitely not letting it invade his mind.
Suddenly, the feeling vanished without a trace. Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, what's going on? Why did it disappear all of a sudden. Isn't your vitality strong? It is said that I don't know how many times stronger than the spirit and vitality of these ordinary people, which is exactly the object that this kind of person needs?
Why don't you make a sneak attack on yourself? It's not good for me to continue looking for directions. But according to the direction in which you are slowly getting stronger just now, it should be this way.
Lin Yun cautiously looked for the past slowly in this direction, although it was already dark, but there were no tall trees to cover it, this wild place, Lin Yun still relied on his super strong gaze to see clearly.
A small stone statue at his feet caught Lin Yun's attention, this stone statue has a long history, and it is likely that it is the first Bodhisattva statue worshiped by the villagers in the Taoist temple. Since the stone statue is seen here, the original Taoist ruins here are nearby, indicating that there should be nothing wrong with the place I am looking for.
When Lin Yun saw that he was about to find the Taoist temple, his mood became even more excited. Carefully continued to search around, and sure enough, Lin Yun found a rotten incense platform again, more than a dozen green bricks that could no longer see the original color, it seemed that this Taoist temple was here, Lin Yun immediately wanted to sacrifice the purple fire to burn all the weeds nearby, but in a blink of an eye, he changed his attention again, and took out a lighter.
Just as Lin Yun was about to set fire to the nearby wild grass, he suddenly felt a cramp in his heart, and the lighter fell to the ground. Lin Yunxin said that it was not good, this person in the dark seemed to be clear about his movements, and he didn't expect that his every move was secretly monitored by this person.
There was no time to care about other things, Lin Yun's star power exploded, ran for a week, and completely forced out this cold aura that suddenly invaded his mind, and then used star power to dissolve it.
Originally, it was most appropriate for Lin Yun to use the spark to burn it, but in this place, he was obviously being monitored, and if he didn't have a little life-saving means, all his things would be known by this person who was secretly watching, it would be a big disadvantage to himself.
Lin Yun was now sure that this person was definitely not a member of the Ancient Martial Family, or a cultivator who cultivated the Ancient Martial Inheritance. For the ancient martial arts here, Lin Yun knew that it was absolutely impossible to cultivate to the point where he could monitor people in the invisible realm.
So the people here who plot against themselves and spy on themselves, and even make these eighteen miles a wasteland, are all done by a person who can spy on people and invisible people?
What can I use so that I can't see him, but he can keep track of his whereabouts? Divine Sense, in addition to Divine Sense, Lin Yun can't think of anything else here that can spy on himself and attack himself, saying that the camera is a joke, even if this person can see himself with the camera, it is absolutely impossible to sneak attack himself.
Someone with divine sense? Who else is there besides the cultivators? Not only is it a cultivator, but it is also a cultivator who is not low, as far as Lin Yun knows, a cultivator must cultivate at least to the foundation building period before he can have divine sense. Cultivators can only be produced after they are at least a small success, but there are very few people in the Tianhong Continent who have divine sense.
Only a very few people can produce divine consciousness during the Qi cultivation period, if it is a guy in the foundation building period, Lin Yun is definitely not his opponent. I didn't expect that a person who had a divine consciousness could be foreseen here, what the hell is going on?
Star cultivation can also produce divine consciousness, and for star cultivators, it is star consciousness, which is actually the same thing as divine consciousness. However, there are very few people who cultivate stars, and it is almost impossible for these very few people who cultivate stars to cultivate star consciousness.
Generally speaking, according to the normal range of star cultivation, cultivating to the three-star level can produce star consciousness, but there are very few people who can produce star consciousness at the three-star level.
Lin Yun originally had star consciousness when he was cultivating stars, and he was known as a genius for cultivating stars, but such a genius still couldn't pass the five-star level.
Lin Yun hesitated a little, this person was actually a master of the foundation building period who had produced divine consciousness, and going to fight against this kind of person by himself was almost no different from looking for death.
However, Lin Yun reacted after a change of thought, since this person was a master of the foundation building period, it was almost too simple to come out and kill himself. You must know that in the entire Tianhong Continent, although they all cultivate, it is very rare for cultivators to cultivate to the foundation, otherwise they will not work hard to develop science and technology.
Since it was very easy for this person to kill himself, why didn't he come out and kill himself, it is said that the benefits of his strong vitality to this person are obvious. Also, since this person can absorb people's vitality and transform it into cultivation, why doesn't he come out and leave here?
What made Lin Yun suspect the most was that when he found this Taoist temple site just now, he was violently attacked. And before that, he first attacked himself, and then he gave up because he couldn't help himself, obviously wanting to let himself retreat. Until he discovered the Taoist ruins and attacked himself again.
Thinking of this, Lin Yun made a bold guess, this person must have been trapped here for some reason, should he go or not now?
