142: Chapter 2 Soul-Snatching Powder

"Brother Jiancang, I naturally came today to deliver a congratulatory gift for you."

While Tu Wan spoke, he took out a blood-dripping wooden box from his storage bag and threw it towards Chen Jiancang.

The wooden box landed, and a bloody head rolled out from it.

"Brother Jiancang, take a look at the congratulatory gift this old brother prepared for you, how is it?"

Seeing the familiar appearance of the head, Chen Jiancang's face instantly turned pale, his anger erupting like a volcano, his eyes splitting with fury.

At this moment, the Chen Clan present all showed expressions of disbelief.

They couldn't believe the scene before their eyes was real.

Nor could they admit that on the Chen Family's territory, which controlled the Qingya Mountain Range, someone dared to so brazenly and cruelly murder a Chen Clan member.

And even publicly humiliate them so recklessly.

Was he not afraid of being hunted down by the Chen Family Law Enforcement Hall?

At this moment, Qing He's eyes were red, tears pouring out like a breached dam.

She rushed forward, disregarding the mud and blood staining the head, and clutched it into her arms, weeping bitterly.

"Master, woo woo~~"

Qing He's heartbreaking grief instantly spread among everyone present.

The owner of this head was precisely the Deacon of the Small Cloud Mountain Dan Hall, Steward Nethercloud, a senior who had always taken good care of Chen Jiancang.

Steward Nethercloud, as the Deacon of the Small Cloud Mountain Dan Hall and a First Order Alchemist, held a respected position in the Xiao Yun Mountain Market.

Chen Jiancang vaguely recalled that not long ago, the two of them had gone to the Main Spiritual Vein to contribute Qinghe Qi Cultivation Pill.

But in the blink of an eye, they were separated forever, and the culprit was Tu Wan, who stood in the air on the wind.

"Tu Wan, you won't die a good death."

Chen Jiancang gritted his teeth and roared, anger causing his eyes to burst, blood beads dripping from the corners of his eyes, leaving a bloody streak on his face.

At this moment, Chen Jiancang said no more.

He drew the Azure Bamboo Cloud Sword from his waist.

He no longer concealed his Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation.

His spiritual energy was released without reservation, condensing and charging towards Tu Wan regardless of the consequences.

At this moment, the only Foundation Establishment cultivator present, Chen Yingong, also had a ashen face.

As a Deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall, he hated those who opposed the Chen Family the most.

Without a word, he held a Second Order spiritual sword, spiritual energy surging, and followed behind Chen Jiancang to kill Tu Wan.

And the Chen Clan members who had originally come to watch the excitement, regardless of their cultivation level, each took out their Magical Artifacts and charged towards Tu Wan, disregarding the disparity in Realms.

"Hahaha, Brother Jiancang, do you dislike the congratulatory gift I sent you?"

Tu Wan laughed heartily, completely unafraid of the attacks from the crowd.

With a wave of his large, blood-stained hands, countless blood crows flew out from the Spirit Beast bag at his waist, their bloody wings flapping as they swooped towards the crowd.

Jiancang wielded the Azure Bamboo Cloud Sword, using the Entwine, Collapse, and Pierce techniques of the Azure Profound Sword Art in conjunction.

More than half of the blood crows blocking his path died in a single exchange.

Tu Wan looked at Chen Jiancang with a hint of surprise and said with a laugh: "Hahaha, Brother Chen Jiancang, you hide yourself truly deep.

To think your Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation was hidden as a Qi Refining Sixth Layer Cultivator, it's truly unexpected."

However, Chen Jiancang did not respond to his shock.

He flicked the Azure Bamboo Cloud Sword, deflecting a blood crow in front of him, and continued to charge towards Tu Wan.

However, at this moment, Chen Yingong's attack arrived first, coming from behind.

His furious strike, containing a hundred years of sword technique experience, possessed immense power, leaving Tu Wan nowhere to hide.

But what made everyone hard to believe was that just as Chen Yingong's sword tip was about to pierce his body, Tu Wan's body instantly dissipated, leaving only a bloody robe hanging in the air.

Chen Yingong's astonishingly powerful sword strike had actually hit nothing.

Chen Yingong's sword momentum faded.

Under everyone's gaze, Tu Wan's figure strangely reappeared within the robe.

Seeing this, Chen Yingong frowned tightly, seemingly recognizing the origin of Tu Wan's bizarre movement technique, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Blood Hidden Art, you are from the Blood Hidden Gate?"

"You have immense audacity.

Our Chen Family and your Blood Hidden Gate have always kept to our own.

How dare you murder the Deacon of our Chen Family's Dan Hall?

Are you trying to provoke a war between our two forces?"

Chen Yingong asked in a deep voice, his immense anger already difficult to suppress.

Tu Wan laughed fearlessly and said: "Hahaha, just your Chen Family?

If Chen Qingyuan were still alive, my Blood Hidden Gate would naturally retreat three steps and keep to our own, not interfering with your Chen Family.

But unfortunately, are your Chen Family Old Ancestors really still alive?

A Chen Family without a Golden Core True Monarch, what virtue and ability, what qualifications does it have to occupy such a vast Qingya Mountain Range?"

Tu Wan's words caused all the Chen Clan members battling the blood crows to tremble.

They dared not believe whether what Tu Wan said was true.

The Chen Family Old Ancestor, Chen Qingyuan, was the sky of the Qingya Chen Family.

If the Old Ancestor truly met with an accident, it truly meant the sky of the Chen Family had fallen.

Combining the recent frequent attacks on the Chen Family and recalling Tu Wan's words just now, everyone felt a moment of daze.

"Villain, spreading evil rumors, seeking death."

Chen Yingong shouted loudly and charged forward with his sword again.

His loud shout woke everyone up.

This magic Cultivator before them was seizing the opportunity to shake their Dao Hearts, trying to break down their psychological defenses.

The awakened crowd continued to charge into the blood crow swarm.

At this moment, Chen Jiancang had already broken through the obstruction of the blood crow swarm and stood together with Chen Yingong.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Tu Wan, his voice filled with grief and despair, questioning Tu Wan: "Tu Wan, I have no enmity with you, and we even had quite a bit of business dealings.

Why did you ruin my great celebration?

Why did you kill my close senior?"

Jiancang was undoubtedly the most heartbroken at this moment.

Having transmigrated here, he didn't have many friends.

The only opposite-sex Cultivator he could truly consider a confidant, the only non-Chen Clan member he could look up to, was Tu Wan before him.

However, he never expected that after kindly inviting Tu Wan to attend his wedding ceremony, Tu Wan would destroy his wedding in such a manner.

"Hahaha, Brother Chen Jiancang, you can't really blame me for this.

Who told the Sect to order me to act opportunistically, and it just happened that Chen Youyun came to celebrate for you?"

Tu Wan's reason was very illogical.

But his capricious behavior perfectly reflected the uninhibited and reckless way magic Cultivators act.

"Moreover, I didn't have a suitable gift for you, so I could only use his head as a substitute, haha."

Tu Wan's casual tone made Chen Jiancang even more furious.

Chen Jiancang's eyes were cold.

He took out a thick stack of First Order High Grade Cage Talismans from his storage bag and instantly threw them towards Tu Wan.

The Cage Talisman was the only Spirit Talisman Chen Jiancang possessed that could affect a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He had already verified its effect at the Meng Family's Small Jade Mountain previously.

The Insect Cultivator Protector was trapped by the Cage Talisman and finally vanished under the bombing of the Heavenly Thunder Pearl.

Therefore, in the three months since returning from Small Jade Mountain, Chen Jiancang had been refining Cage Talismans whenever he had time.

Thus, the number of First Order High Grade Cage Talismans he had accumulated was absolutely terrifying.

His purpose was to be able to control Foundation Establishment cultivators for as long as possible using the Cage Talisman when he encountered them again.

The Cage Talismans were activated by Chen Jiancang's spiritual sense, instantly forming a spiritual energy vine barrier around Tu Wan's figure, trapping him.

"Such petty tricks dare to be displayed before an expert?"

Seeing the Cage Talismans form a cage, and finding them only at the First Order High Grade level, Tu Wan couldn't help but sneer, his face full of disdain.

First Order High Grade Cage Talismans were a barrier very difficult for Qi Refining Stage Cultivators to break through.

But in the hands of a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, the negligible trapping power of these Spirit Talismans could be broken with just a casual strike.

"Qi Refining Stage is just Qi Refining Stage.

You will never know the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

Tu Wan continued to laugh heartily, not caring at all as Chen Jiancang stacked Cage Talisman after Cage Talisman.

However, Tu Wan absolutely could not have imagined that the previous Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator who had the same thought as him was precisely the Insect Cultivator Protector.

Although First Order High Grade Spirit Talismans could not trap a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, they could at least delay for one breath.

Ten talismans meant ten breaths.

The effect of ten or a hundred talismans might not be significant, but what about a thousand or ten thousand?

He might not have imagined the principle of quantitative change leading to qualitative change.

He also absolutely could not have imagined that someone would be so wealthy as to use Spirit Talismans worth hundreds of spiritual stones to stack and attack an enemy.

"Brother Jiancang, you think you can control me with these First Order High Grade Cage Talismans?

That's a bit of a fool's dream!"

Tu Wan very confidently broke through a Cage Talisman barrier with a casual strike.

However, it was only at this moment that Tu Wan discovered.

Behind one Cage Talisman, there was actually another Cage Talisman stacked.

After Tu Wan continuously broke through several Cage Talismans, he gradually realized something was wrong.

The Cage Talismans seemed endless.

In just a few dozen breaths, Chen Jiancang had already stacked countless First Order High Grade Cage Talismans.

Tu Wan's smile at this moment gradually faded.

It was replaced by his face which gradually became ferocious.

"Chen Jiancang, how many Cage Talismans did you activate?

Don't you know that one Cage Talisman can only last for a quarter of an hour at most?

So many Spirit Talismans, even if I don't move, they can only control me for a quarter of an hour at most.

You are wasting them!"

Tu Wan frowned slightly and mocked Chen Jiancang.

When he decided to take action today, he had already thoroughly investigated the situation of Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Xiao Yun Mountain Market.

The regular Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Xiao Yun Mountain Market happened to be away.

Of course, the arrival of Chen Yingong, this Foundation Establishment cultivator, was outside his expectation, but it was not a big deal.

He was a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivator, while Chen Yingong was merely a Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivator.

He could suppress him with a flip of his hand.

A quarter of an hour, even if another Foundation Establishment cultivator came from elsewhere, the time would absolutely not be enough.

Therefore, he only needed to wait quietly for a quarter of an hour to escape from the Cage Talismans.

At this moment, seeing Tu Wan trapped within countless Cage Talismans, the coldness on Chen Jiancang's face did not decrease in the slightest, and he was indifferent to Tu Wan's mockery.

He still had at least several hundred Cage Talismans.

Of course, he hadn't planned to trap Tu Wan for a very long time with the Cage Talismans.

Chen Jiancang looked at Chen Yingong at this moment and nodded.

Chen Yingong instantly understood Chen Jiancang's intention.

In terms of strength, everyone present was no match for Tu Wan at this moment.

But Chen Jiancang still had a trump card that had not been detected by the outside world, because all outsiders who knew of this method had been annihilated by the Chen Family.

"Tu Wan, don't be complacent.

You killed my close senior, and I will also make you endure the pain of being unable to live or die, to comfort Steward Nethercloud's soul in heaven."

Chen Jiancang looked at Tu Wan as if he were looking at a dead person, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"Chen Jiancang, here are the Second Order Lueling Grass leaves grown from the Second Order mutated Lueling seeds you gave me before.

A total of two harvests were grown, and this is all that was obtained.

Is this enough to refine the Second Order Lue Ling Powder?"

Chen Yingong took out a pile of purplish-green Lueling Grass leaves from his storage bag and handed them to Chen Jiancang, asking.

Chen Jiancang nodded and said in an extremely calm tone: "Enough, it's enough to turn this beast into a lamb waiting to be slaughtered."

Chen Jiancang and Chen Yingong did not avoid Tu Wan at all, speaking in front of him.

The poison of First Order Lue Ling Powder caused the poisoned person to lose control of their spiritual energy through breathing.

However, the poison of Second Order Lue Ling Powder was not so troublesome; it could poison the victim through spiritual power, pores, and many other channels.

Tu Wan was trapped within the spiritual energy cage formed by the First Order High Grade Cage Talismans, with no room to maneuver at all.

Chen Jiancang only needed to refine the Second Order Lue Ling Powder, and Tu Wan would have no chance of turning the tables.

Chen Jiancang handed all the remaining First Order High Grade Cage Talismans to Chen Yingong.

At this point, Chen Yingong only needed to ensure that Tu Wan did not escape from the Cage Talismans.

At this moment, Chen Jiancang took the Lueling Grass, placed it in the Spirit Flame Pill Furnace, and a faint blue flame flickered on his fingertip.

He began to refine the medicinal liquid using a unique technique.

The flame moved like a spiritual snake, extracting the essence from the Lueling Grass one by one.

The Second Order Lue Ling Talisman was also invisible, colorless, and odorless, but its medicinal power was even stronger.

Chen Jiancang could already feel himself being permeated by the Second Order Lue Ling Powder just during the refining process.

Fortunately, the Lue Ling Powder had not yet been successfully refined, and there was a First Order Peak-grade Spirit Flame Pill Furnace separating them, allowing Chen Jiancang to barely hold on, but his spiritual energy was still being eroded little by little.

Tu Wan was trapped within layers of Cage Talismans.

Although he still wore a look of disdain, a sense of panic inexplicably arose in his heart.

He tried to break through the cage, but each attack was easily resisted by the newly stacked Cage Talismans.

He watched Chen Jiancang methodically refine the poison, and finally couldn't hold back: "Chen Jiancang, do you think you can do anything to me with this broken poison?

When I get out, I will surely annihilate your Chen Family!"

Chen Jiancang didn't even raise his head, his movements becoming increasingly skilled: "Tu Wan, you're still talking tough even now.

The moment you killed Steward Nethercloud, it was destined that you must die here today."

"Of course, I won't let you die so easily.

I will make you unable to live or die."

Chen Jiancang's tone was flat, but it revealed a strong killing intent.

As the medicinal liquid gradually thickened and the water vapor evaporated, tiny particles, difficult for both the naked eye and spiritual sense to detect, appeared at the bottom of the Spirit Flame Pill Furnace.

Chen Jiancang took out a jade bottle and slowly poured the refined Second Order Lue Ling Powder into it.

He controlled the jade bottle in the air, while Chen Yingong continued to stack First Order High Grade Cage Talismans around the jade bottle.

After the spiritual energy of the talismans in front was depleted, the jade bottle finally reached Tu Wan's front.

Chen Jiancang controlled the jade bottle to shatter.

The Second Order Lue Ling Powder instantly broke apart within the cage formed by the Cage Talismans.

Tu Wan quickly put up a spiritual energy shield.

However, the Lue Ling Powder was like a maggot attached to bone, constantly spreading towards his body through his pores and spiritual energy, with almost no possibility of being blocked.
