45: Evil Banner 45: Evil Banner Editor: _Lunaelle, The_Dreamweavers The door was locked tight, but that didn’t bother the two of them.
With a leap, they entered the courtyard, and there was another lock.
With one slash of Master Wilson’s peach wood sword, the lock fell to the ground.
As soon as they opened the door, a bone-chilling cold air rushed towards them.
Even though they were at the Qi Refining First Layer, they hurriedly circulated their True Qi to resist the cold that penetrated their bones.
“As expected, it’s a feng shui pattern!”
Master Wilson’s expression became solemn, holding a peach wood sword in one hand, and a yellow talisman in the other.
Peter Brown was also cautious, holding a jade talisman in one hand.
After entering, they discovered a huge dug-out hole underground, and the air emitting from it was even colder.
Although Peter knew about the feng shui pattern here, he was secretly shocked.
If it was set underground, there was probably an ancient corpse over a hundred years old underneath.
This is a formation set up by a demonic cultivator.”
Master Wilson nodded slightly, “Hmm, I didn’t expect someone to dare to set up such a feng shui pattern in this city.
As they descended the wooden staircase, the cold air grew stronger.
Peter could only circulate his True Qi to resist it.
Upon reaching the underground, they saw a large ancient banner hanging in the air.
Besides the banner, there was a large coffin on the ground, not covered, with a corpse wearing ancient clothes lying inside.
“As expected, an ancient corpse!”
Master Wilson became even more careful at this point.
Peter curiously observed the formation.
In his eyes, it was rather simple.
Even if it could make the banner successfully, its power wouldn’t be too great.
Suddenly, the ancient banner fluttered, and a huge spirit appeared from within.
It had large eyes and a bleeding mouth, with long fingernails on its hands.
The spirit which looked fierce, lunged at Master Wilson.
Its piercing screams filled the underground space with an even colder atmosphere.
At the same time, the corpse in the coffin sprang up and rushed towards Peter.
Peter could only shake his head at this feng shui pattern.
It was too different and rudimentary compared to the inheritance he had received.
Seeing the ancient corpse approaching, Peter didn’t hesitate and threw a fire talisman at it.
The most direct way to deal with such an ancient corpse was to burn it with fire.
As Peter’s jade talisman shot out, the ferocious ancient corpse was engulfed by flame.
It screamed in pain, but was quickly incinerated.
Easily dealing with the ancient corpse, Peter gained a better understanding of his jade talisman.
After all, it was an ancient talisman art inheritance, far more powerful than ordinary talismans.
Looking back at Master Wilson, Peter couldn’t help but shake his head.
Although the priest was also at the Qi Refining First Layer, his peach wood sword could not suppress the spirit that emerged from the evil banner.
This powerful evil spirit was formed by gathering almost all the spirits in the city.
Despite continuously offering yellow talismans, the priest was forced into a frantic struggle, barely able to keep up.
Of course, Peter would not stand idly by, and he threw another jade talisman towards the situation.
This time, Peter directly hit the banner itself.
With a loud boom, the huge banner was enveloped in flames.
However, it was evident that the evil banner emitted a cold air that blocked the fire from entering.
As the fire was about to be extinguished, Peter launched a Gold Talisman.
Once the Gold Talisman was released, it transformed into iron arrows that shot towards the banner.
After continuous arrow attacks, the evil banner was pinned to the wall.
Then, as Peter launched another fire talisman, the whole banner ignited.
At that moment, the evil spirit that had been fighting Master Wilson lunged at Peter.
With a snort, Peter unleashed several jade talismans at the evil spirit.
The raging flames trapped the evil spirit in the Five Elements Talisman Array, and then the flames began to burn.
Although the evil spirit struggled, it was quickly destroyed by Peter’s Five Elements Talisman Array.
With the disappearance of the evil spirit, the temperature in the underground space began to rise.
Master Wilson looked at Peter with a complicated expression, “Fellow daoist, you saved me again!” His heart was shocked by Peter’s techniques.
“It’s not a matter of saving or not saving.
We’re just helping each other.
Let’s take a look inside first.
It seems like someone was making an evil banner here.
I wonder what kind of person it is.
Let’s see if we can find and exterminate them.”
Master Wilson nodded, “If this evil banner were successful, many more people would die.
We must find and destroy it.”
After searching the building for a while, the two of them found no clues, and had even checked the upstairs without any success.
Sighing, Master Wilson said, “The one who made this evil banner probably knew it was a wicked deed and didn’t dare to stay here.
Now that we’ve destroyed the place, they probably sensed it and will be difficult to find.”
Peter also took a look and agreed with Master Wilson’s words.
He nodded, “No choice, the person didn’t leave any traces.”
“I’ll report this incident and have everyone search for them.”
Peter didn’t ask about Master Wilson’s identity but could tell that he was a person with some worldly authority.
When the two exited the building, they saw two police officers and Bennett waiting for them.
Besides them, there were several police cars parked nearby.
“Peter, what’s the situation?” Bennett asked.
“It’s nothing to do with us anymore, let’s go.”
Peter greeted Master Wilson and then left.
“Fellow daoist, leave your phone number.”
Master Wilson asked for Peter’s phone number, and Peter reluctantly gave it to him.
“Fellow daoist, after I’ve finished handling this matter, let’s have a good chat.”
Peter smiled and turned to leave.
Initially, he was just curious about what cultivators were like.
However, after seeing Master Wilson’s methods today, Peter was somewhat disappointed, thinking that modern cultivators must have very low cultivation levels.
On their way back, Bennett and Reuben kept asking about the situation, but Peter didn’t share the details.
After all, it would be hard for mere humans to comprehend such matters.
