Chapter 56: The Skin Painting Technique
Chapter 56: Skin Painting Technique
Hearing Nangong Baizhuang’s words, everyone’s faces couldn’t help but change slightly.
Everyone knew that once they were on the Questioning Stage, then the thoughts in their hearts would no longer be their own.
As long as the other party asked something, one would answer.
If that Nangong Baichang wanted to peep into the secrets of the hearts of the people present, then the people present, I am afraid that it is really difficult to resist.
As if he could see the concerns in the hearts of the people present, Nangong Baizhang could not help but say in a deep voice once again:
“Here I can assure you all, this time you all on the questioning platform, I only ask with you and the devil cultivator whether there is collusion, in addition to this, will never ask a word more.”
Hearing this promise from Nangong Baizhuang, the hearts of the people present then let out a slight sigh of relief.
As one of the Qian Yang Sect’s three major Jindan realities, Nangong Bai Zhuo’s promise was obviously still very credible.
Not long after his words, there was soon a cultivator from the Qian Yang Sect who took the initiative to walk up to the Heart Inquiry Stage.
Nangong Baizhuang immediately raised his voice to inquire.
“Are you a devil cultivator? Are you colluding with that devil cultivator?”
That Qianyang Sect cultivator immediately shook his head.
“I am not a devil cultivator, and I do not have the slightest collusion with that devil cultivator.”
After saying that, Nangong Baizhuang let him walk off the Questioning Stage.
Seeing this, the crowd, who originally still had so much worry in their hearts, finally completely let go of their hearts.
Thus, the crowd went up to the stage one after another.
Shen Yuanlong and the crowd of Shen family cultivators also walked down from that heart-questioning stage one after another.
But Shen Yuanlong always remembered the reminder that his sister Shen Mengxue had given him at first.
Therefore, after he led a group of Shen family members and stepped down from the heart questioning platform, he immediately walked far to the back.
On the contrary, there were some family and clan cultivators who wanted to please Nangong Baichang, at this moment still surrounding that Nangong Baichang, constantly complimenting him on something, actually making Nangong Baichang’s originally still serious face, a faint smile appeared.
But it was also at this time, a few Foundation Establishment cultivators from several families who walked down from that Heart Inquiry Platform, suddenly walked over to Nangong Baizhuang’s side.
The several Purple Mansion Superiors surrounding Nangong Baizhuang immediately frowned and asked those Foundation Establishment Cultivators from their own families:
“What is the matter with you guys?”
The few Foundation Establishment cultivators looked at each other and did not say anything, but they continued to approach towards their side.
A flash of displeasure appeared in the eyes of the several Violet Mansion Superiors.
However, Nangong Baichang, who was located in their center, instinctively sensed a hint of something wrong, and his face abruptly changed.
“Not good! Everyone quickly dodge away!”
Boom!
It was at this instant that a huge explosion suddenly was rising into the sky.
The shockwave that carried an infinite amount of demonic and baleful aura instantly swept over everyone in the vicinity.
The previously injured Flowing Cloud Sect Ancestor Void Sea Person, whose injuries had not yet healed, had his entire being instantly torn to pieces by the ghastly shockwave.
Pitifully, he had escaped earlier, but in front of this sudden danger at the moment, he still failed to hold on and fell on the spot.
Aside from him, the remaining few Violet Mansion Superiors who were here weren’t doing too well either.
Although they had offered their respective means of defense afterward, their reactions were ultimately a beat slower, and there were a few people who had suffered extremely serious injuries.
“Hahaha!”
Suddenly, a loud laugh came from the ears of the crowd.
Immediately afterward, three or four black beads, whose bodies were draped in a rich demonic and baleful aura, flew towards their side in a hurry.
“It’s the Demon Fury Beads!”
The faces of the few surviving Violet Mansion Superiors changed drastically.
Right now, they had long since recognized what exactly was that thing that had just hit them hard, and it was precisely that third-order disposable prop that was enough to threaten the lives of the Purple Mansion Superiors, the Demon Fiend Beads!
Now three or four more came at once.
If they were blown up by them again, there was no need to doubt that the rest of them, even if they didn’t die, they would definitely be on the verge of death, and their future path would be completely cut off.
“It’s you! Illusory Demon Xie Feiyang! It was you who manipulated them!”
Nangong Baichen’s angry shout suddenly came from the air.
Immediately after, a long spear draped with majestic mana blasted and pointed at those three or four pitch-black colored Demon Fiend Beads, instantly annihilating those three or four Demon Fiend Beads in mid-air.
It could be seen just how powerful Nangong Baichang, who was a Jindan Realist, really was.
At this moment, his eyes were burning with the flames of anger, and his entire body was like a god of war that had returned from the ancient times, and his gaze was fixed on an unimpressive Qi Refining Stage cultivator in the crowd.
Then he saw a weird smile suddenly appear on that Qi Refining Stage cultivator’s face.
Immediately afterward, his entire person seemed like a candle melting, instantly shrinking and eventually turning into a puddle of greasy, yellowish-brown human skin that silently fell to the ground.
“It’s the Devil Dao’s Skin Painting Technique!”
Some people recognized this bizarre spell, and their faces couldn’t help but all show a look of horror.
Legend had it that as long as this spell could find a suitable carrier, one could place a sliver of one’s own god on top of this and be able to possess about 30% of the strength of the main body.
But cultivating this law also has a great disadvantage, that is, the same will be their own flesh and blood skeleton, reduced to a human skin, completely changed into a man not a ghost monster.
In addition, cultivators who practiced this evil method needed a large number of living human skins as sacrifices every day.
In secular terms, it is a change of clothes.
Only normal people changed clothes, while those who practiced the Skin Painting Technique changed living human skins.
“Jie Jie Jie ……
Nangong Xiaoer, now this is just a warning that I, the old me, have given to your Qian Yang Sect, guess, if you still dare to continue, this next human skin of mine will be changed to who?”
A cold and evil voice suddenly came from the air.
It carried an endless amount of malice and eeriness.
Everyone’s faces couldn’t help but emerge in thick panic.
Including those Violet Mansion Superiors present.
Obviously, any of them knew that this Illusory Demon, Xie Feiyang, was the most bizarre and tricky one among the many Jindan demonic cultivators.
His Skin Painting Technique had reached an extremely profound level, and even if several Jindan real people joined forces, they might not be sure that they could really take him down.
Not to mention that his real body was always hiding behind an unknown back.
What appeared in front of everyone’s eyes was often just his painted skin.
“You seek death!”
The long spear in Nangong Baizhuang’s hand violently erupted into a cloud of piercing golden light.
With a boom, the tawny human skin that had fallen to the ground was instantly reduced to pieces.
Immediately afterward, his entire person disappeared in place.
Only after a long time did the crowd look up in shock.
In the unknown height of the air, a mushroom cloud of light violently burst open.
Like a shockwave, it instantly swept across tens of thousands of miles of emptiness.
It was only after an incense stick was burned that Nangong Baijun landed back amongst the crowd with his magic lance in hand.
Only at this time, the crowd all noticed that in Nangong Baijun’s chest, there was a large hole running front to back.
The flesh and blood inside was writhing, slowly expelling a trace of black gas with a mournful howl.
Almost several more hours later.
Only then did Nangong Baijun’s chest return to normal.
With a cold gaze, he swept a circle of the people present, then said in a chilling voice:
“Everyone, continue to purge the demons with me.
But if any are found, shoot on sight!”
“Yes!”
Everyone’s hearts were in awe.
Not daring to be slow, they immediately bowed and received orders.
