C39 soul summoning

Quiet, deathly quiet, with only the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops.

No one spoke. One could even hear the sound of their own breathing. At this moment, it was as if time had stopped.

Everyone's gaze was fixed on Lin Bai, waiting for him to state his stance in the next moment.

"Speaking of which, it doesn't seem to make sense." Lin Bai smiled as he looked at Xia Xiaoqing: "I can only try my best."

"As long as you can find Nan Yu's corpse, no matter what request you have, I will agree." A flush of excitement flashed across Xia Xiaoqing's face as she asked in a trembling voice.

There had always been a saying in China that when a guest dies in a foreign land, or when the person dies and the body cannot be found, the soul will remain in the foreign land or at the place of sudden death, suffering endless pain. He could not enjoy the worship of his family, nor could he have the opportunity to be reincarnated. He could only stay in that place forever, alone for a long time.

The most important thing was that they could not live together, and could not die together. This was the greatest torture to Xia Xiaoqing. Being able to find Chen Nanyu's corpse was her last hope to live, and even with such a small amount of thought, she didn't even dare to dream about it. Now that she saw Lin Bai, who could draw him into his body with a wave of her hand, and heard that Lin Bai could help her, Xia Xiaoqing immediately became excited.

"We'll talk about it when we find out." Lin Bai pushed away the small hands that were tightly holding onto his arm and continued to speak: "I need your husband's remains to help me determine his current location."

He looked at Lin Bai with a pleading face as he removed a piece of hair from his neck that was bound by a red rope. He carefully placed it in Lin Bai's hand and said softly, "This is the last thing Nan Yu left for me.

Hearing that the thing Xia Xiaoqing handed over was the fetal hair, Lin Bai's face revealed a happy expression.

Fetal hair, the hair that the baby had cut off for the first time since leaving the mother's womb. This type of hair had already developed while a human was still an embryo, and it possessed the innate spirit energy. It was also the first time that a human's blood energy had been nurtured. If he used it to search for the bones, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

"Do you have any blood essence left?" Lin Bai muttered to himself for a while before asking.

Xia Xiaoqing shook her head, and said softly: "There was originally some left, but for the sake of finding the corpses, I used it all up when I looked for someone to help me calculate, and now this is all I have left."

Lin Bai shook his head, his face revealing a bitter smile. Xia Xiaoqing was anxious to find a husband, she had fallen for the path of the Phantom in the martial arts world.

The so called Phantom was a master who recalled the souls of his dead relatives and conversed with them while they were still alive. The main source of income for Phantom was' Guan Death ', which was a jargon that meant recruiting souls.

Rather than saying Phantom was a deceiving technique, it would be more accurate to say that it was a deceiving technique. Generally, Phantom would need the cooperation of four or five people, and use the paper-cut as a way to get to the bottom of this. Almost all women used to embroider, putting paper patterns on the embroidery cloth and embroidering with colored thread. Paper design belonged to the paper-cutting arts. Not everyone knew it, but "Phantom" had this ability.

Find out who's dead, who's dead, what's in the family structure, etc. He then informed his accomplices of the information he had found. His accomplices then came to the door to help the family, which had "closed down and died". Since he had a good grasp of the situation beforehand, the words that came out of the "Phantom" 's mouth were astonishingly accurate.

"Phantom" claimed that he could foresee the future and understand the past. He could do things that humans could not do. It's all bullshit. To practice "ventral language", first one practiced 'choking,' holding one's breath 'and then using the pronunciation in one's throat. After a long period of practice, the voice, after holding one's breath, could cause one's abdominal cavity to wiggle and resonate, then it could produce a sound similar to' speaking '.

It was just that these years, through the popularization of scientific cultures and some national initiatives, these Phantom who had previously roamed the country for a while had gradually disappeared, but a portion of them still survived.

Lin Bai was certain that Xia Xiaoqing had fallen in love while being in a desperate situation and met with the remnants of the sects of Phantom. Then, she had been duped by these people into going over to the materials in her hands that could help him gather spirits.

"All of you, move to the side. I want to use this Innate Fetal Hair to arrange the formation of the soul gathering formation and deduce the location of the corpse." Lin Bai swept his eyes across the three people beside him and said indifferently.

"Lin Bai, be careful. Don't force yourself." Liu Jingtian warned Lin Bai as he backed off a few steps.

Lin Bai nodded and said softly, "I understand, don't worry."

The human soul had three souls and seven souls. This was the spirit of a person's life. When a person was still alive, their soul would be attached to their body. However, when they suddenly died, their soul would remain at the place of death, and it would be difficult for them to return. The technique Lin Bai used was a Spirit Summoning technique from the Celestial Fortune Telling Sect, and he had even learned some of Chu Wu's techniques.

In the "Chu Ci", there was a "Recruitment of Souls" passage, which was written by Song Yu to recall his teacher Qu Yuan's soul. The Celestial Fortune Telling Sect used the closest things that Chu Wu had when he was still alive, and used this information to cause a resonance between the Yin and Yang, and from there, to calculate the specific location of the corpse.

Sweeping the hair in his hand, Lin Bai walked over to a large rock and placed the hair on top of it. Then, he bit his finger on his lips and drew blood on the rock.

The speed of Lin Bai's hands was very slow, they stopped in midair, as though all the strength in his body had been completely drained. Normally, one could draw talismans with cinnabar, but it still couldn't compare to the blood, which was filled with Yin and Yang energy. Chen Nanyu had been dead for a long time, so he could only try to use this kind of talisman with the greatest effect.

"I wonder if the item the old thing gave me will be useful or not." After Lin Bai finished drawing, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat down on the ground. Drawing talismans was not just a matter of technique, it was also a matter of physical activity. He was extremely focused, and almost half of his strength was spent on drawing a talisman.

The method Lin Bai used was recorded within the old Taoist's Astral Qi Monastery. He used human blood as a medium, adding on the items of the dead, then according to the changes that occurred after the talisman was burnt, he could deduce the location of the dead.

Lin Bai swept a glance at the talisman drawn on the stone and retracted the disrespectful expression on his face. After pondering for a while, he sat in front of the stone and chanted the《 High Jade Emperor's Art》.

Seeing Lin Bai stand up, Xia Xiaoqing anxiously rushed over, with a face full of anticipation, she slowly said: "Master Lin, how is it? Is there any hope? "

In these past few years, Xia Xiaoqing had frequently looked for a matchmaker to help her search for Chen Nanyu's corpse, but the people that she had met these past few years, had mostly started bluffing the moment she started, and some had even expressed that they were powerless after a round of questioning. Now, Lin Bai had basically become the last straw that she had as she desperately grasped onto it.

Lin Bai waved his hand, how could the matter of summoning spirits be accomplished so easily in such a short period of time? Before he could say anything, his feet suddenly felt weak, and he fell into Xia Xiaoqing's embrace. His head felt warm and soft. This was the first conclusion that Lin Bai came to in his mind.

This was not because Lin Bai was taking advantage of Xia Xiaoqing, but because drawing talismans and summoning souls was an extremely exhausting process, which was why his footsteps were so weak.

In the eyes of Liu Jingtian, who was watching from the side, Lin Bai was naked as he ate Xia Xiaoqing's tofu. If those people who wished to be intimate with Xia Xiaoqing saw Lin Bai like this, they would definitely want to kill him!

Liu Jingtian was only thinking about it, and did not notice that Shangguan Yan who was standing beside him had a sour look in her eyes, as though she saw Xia Xiaoqing, who was at a loss while hugging Lin Bai, as an enemy.

After helping the soft Lin Bai into a carriage, the three of them looked at Lin Bai's pale face and the sweat on his forehead and confirmed that he was not doing it on purpose. After a moment of silence, Xia Xiaoqing softly asked, "Master Lin, I wonder how much longer we'll need for more information?"

From the look on Xia Xiaoqing's face, Lin Bai knew that she was already used to the Phantom's fast and nimble methods. As long as he had enough money, he would talk endlessly about the dead.

On the other hand, the Xiang Faction did things slowly like summoning spirits. Not only did they have to draw talismans, sometimes they even had to lay down altar techniques. But how could a dying man wait for such a slow method? The more anxious he became, the more he would lose his confidence in his master. They had to believe the Phantom's words and seek a convenient place.

Moreover, the pace of life was getting faster and faster. Under the pressure of the fast pace of life, people could not wait for the phase change to slow down. This was also one of the main reasons why the line of phase technique had gradually declined and the Phantom had begun to rise again.

"In three to four hours, when the sky turns dark, some clues will probably be revealed." Lin Bai muttered to himself for a while.

The magic that he used was modified by the old Taoist after considering the current pace of life. The magic that used to require three to seven days to be effective only needed three hours to be effective after combining with Chu Wu.

"Alright, then we'll wait here!" Xia Xiaoqing wiped the corner of her eyes, and said with a trembling voice. Ever since Chen Nanyu died, there was not a day that she did not think about his dead husband. Now that she had finally found the corpse of her dead husband, even if the mountain tides were to erupt and the sky were to collapse, she would not leave.
