CHAPTER 348: CHAPTER 125: SPIRIT-LOCKING BODY (6800 WORDS)_2

A full Eastern Three Continents accent... Accepted as a disciple by the third uncle of the Gu Family and taken to the Domain Realm. With his efforts alone, he managed to change the entire Gu Family’s accent...

Could it be this guy?!

Then I can’t mention Gu Qingyi at all!

As soon as Gu Qingyi is mentioned, he might think of his father, Chen Jue!

This guy is still an Inspector, though just an assistant, an intern.

But what if he decides to capture me and take me back to the Domain Realm, to take the blame for Chen Jue?

"My ancestor was once associated with the Gu Family. A senior from the Gu Family gave my ancestor a Talisman. This Talisman has been a lifesaving treasure passed down in my family. I didn’t expect to use it today..." Chen Yan sighed, "Since you’re also a member of the Gu Family, it’s fate that we met in this Secret Realm."

"A senior from the Gu Family gave it to your ancestor?" Ouyang looked at Chen Yan half-believingly and nodded, "Among the elders of the Gu Family, there are indeed two who like to travel and make friends with Loose Cultivators..."

Ouyang asked a few more questions, but Chen Yan insisted that it was passed down by an ancestor, without specifying which Gu Family elder gave it.

Ouyang believed only half of what Chen Yan said, but seeing how firmly he insisted, Ouyang couldn’t ask further.

So he had to nod and say, "In that case, it’s fate that we met here."

After thinking for a moment, Ouyang said, "Since your family has ties with the Gu Family and we cooperated this time..."

Ouyang shook his sleeve, and a golden light flew out from it, landing on the ground and transforming into a long wooden box.

The wooden box was over a meter long, standing on the ground. Ouyang pressed it with one hand, gently flicking his fingers on top.

"This box was something I got after killing the guy whose identity I was impersonating.

That guy was a blood brother of the guy in black clothes we encountered in the Secret Realm, both from the Yin-Yang Master lineage of Japan.

This thing counts as a fairly good Magical Artifact. It doesn’t fit well with my cultivation path, so I was planning to take it back for my third uncle to study and dismantle. But since we had this fateful encounter, I’ll give it to you as a gift."

Chen Yan’s eyes lit up.

He had seen Ouyang use this wooden box in fights within the Secret Realm.

With a slap, it could release paper pieces that turned into paper cranes to attack enemies, transform into paper warriors, or into horses for the warriors.

The attack methods were diverse, and most importantly, it was interesting.

Chen Yan’s own attack methods were rather limited. This thing could make up for his shortcomings, providing significant benefits.

Ouyang also handed Chen Yan a piece of white jade — it contained the spell for controlling and using the wooden box.

"By helping me eliminate this Secret Realm, you’ve greatly contributed to my success. When I report back, I will receive a substantial reward — since you played such a big part, I can’t shortchange you!" Ouyang then handed Chen Yan a porcelain bottle.

"There are eight Bone Pills in here, made by our Inspection Bureau’s exclusive Alchemist. Though not of the highest grade, they are all Middle Grade. Also, the medicinal materials used by our bureau are better than those available outside, and their effects are three times stronger than the Bone Pills sold in the market."

Ouyang continued to smile, "Brother Wang, you might find these useful in your daily travels, so consider them as my gift to you."

A wooden box Magical Artifact with various attack methods, and a bottle of Bone Pills... Chen Yan felt very satisfied.

He already had some Bone Pills, but there weren’t many left. These eight pills from Ouyang just replenished his stock, which would last him for some time.

After giving these things, Ouyang left a business card with a phone number written on it and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he gave Chen Yan a deep look, "Brother, I know the name you gave me is probably false — given that your current appearance is also a disguise through Transformation Technique. My Illusion Breaking Divine Technique noticed that you were disguised, but I couldn’t see your true face.

I understand you likely have other secrets, but I know better than to pry into them.

Based on the camaraderie we built during this adventure, as long as you don’t act recklessly in this world, I’ve got your back at the Inspection Bureau!"

With that, Ouyang left.

His form lifted off the ground. He took a few steps forward, floated higher and higher, and then disappeared into the thick fog with a few leaps.

Chen Yan watched Ouyang leave, then shifted his gaze to Chu Keqing.

"Let’s leave too."

Their car was still parked by the roadside of the mountain road outside Huang Village.

Leaving the Secret Realm, they turned on their phones and noticed that less than two days had passed since they entered the Secret Realm.

Indeed, the time in Secret Realms flows peculiarly, with six hours of night and six hours of day every three days, making up three days and nights.

But in the outside world, it had only been 36 hours.

They returned to their car, and after the Secret Realm disappeared, the Ghost Wall Array nearby also ceased to exist, allowing them to drive down the mountain and leave.

Two days later, Hokkaido.
