Chapter 543: Immortal Magic Suppresses Thief Magic

"Empty hands."

Chu Tai laughed softly, and an illusory woman appeared beside him, her figure seemed to be there and not there, caught between the void and reality. She also stretched out her hand to block the other party's palm.

"The Secret Demon of the Heavens?"

"Qiao Ran'er"'s expression suddenly changed, but he soon realized that something was wrong. Although the woman's aura had three parts of the secret demon in the heavens, she was actually not the same creature.

"Is this the effect of that treasure? It can control beings similar to the secret demons of the heavens. It seems that the immortals have also gained some insight into the power of the secret demons."

Chu Tai could tell that the "Qiao Ran'er" in front of him said this deliberately in order to find an opportunity, and he sneered.

"You are indeed a young thief. You don't know the mysteries of the immortal way. You can only speculate on my abilities with your own shallow knowledge. And why did you think of fighting me in the dojo I set up?"

These words made Qiaoraner's expression suddenly change. He swung his body and tried to escape from here.

The method used is somewhat similar to that used by Qiao Ran'er back then, but it's just more subtle.

Chu Tai did not chase after him, but just stood there, holding the Hunyuan Shangling Jade Emperor Miaodao Treasure Scroll in his hand. The shadow of the sky-covering umbrella above his head slowly rotated, and layers of precious light hung down. There were also countless thin threads of light densely intertwined, covering the entire Baiyun Temple like a spider web, and there were also tiny talismans moving around in it, and every time they intersected, they would produce ripples that ordinary people could not perceive.

And these ripples constantly overlap and intertwine, allowing the aura of countless talismans to connect with each other, one connects to ten, ten to a hundred, a hundred to a thousand, a thousand to ten thousand, and so on, interconnected and endless.

In the center of countless ripples, more than a dozen phantoms appeared, flying up and down, lifting layers of glazed gauze.

"Qiao Ran'er", who was not aware of all the changes, escaped all the way out of the Baiyun Temple, and then successively walked by using the soil and escaped by using the water. After changing several times, he entered the town and changed his appearance several times among the crowd. Several times, he was the same as the pedestrians he saw on the road.

Finally he entered a small room, took out a jade talisman and prayed silently.

As the rays of light turned, "Qiao Ran'er" hurriedly told the other party what he had experienced, while at the same time making hand gestures, ready to cast a spell to escape at any time.

This has been the experience of "Qiao Ran'er" over the years. Some employers do not want their information to be exposed and will clean up those who know the truth afterwards.

Unexpectedly, Yu Fu did not blame him, but asked him to continue observing the changes in Baiyun Temple and report every few days.

Although "Qiao Ran'er" felt strange, she did not doubt it too much. She cast a spell and stayed outside Baiyun Temple to carefully observe Chu Tai's changes.

And this time he learned his lesson and no longer went there as Chu Tai's acquaintance.

On the first day, he targeted a pilgrim who occasionally went to Baiyun Temple to pray, sneaked into his home and knocked him out.

"Don't blame me, I just want to make a living."

"Qiao Ran'er" reached out and took out a pill and stuffed it into the pilgrim's mouth. Then he reached out and wiped the pilgrim's face. With a turn of his wrist, his fingers slid across his cheek and pulled off a piece of dough.

This mask is strange, with eyes, nose, mouth and ears on it. The pilgrim who loses his mask becomes a faceless man, with the five features originally located there now covered by skin.

"Qiao Ran'er" pressed the dough against his own face, and his aura instantly overlapped with that of the pilgrim. Then he took three drops of blood and three strands of hair from the pilgrim, and applied the blood on his forehead, chest and pubic region, and mixed the hair with his own hair. Then he pinched his fingers and chanted a spell, and his fate overlapped with that of the pilgrim. Finally, "Qiao Ran'er" cast a spell to steal the memories of the pilgrim from friends and family around him. After dressing up, he carefully entered the Baiyun Temple, observed closely, and took out the jade talisman to report every two days.

This happened several times, and one day when "Qiao Ran'er" was taking out the jade talisman, a jade ring suddenly fell out of her arms.

The crisp sound of the thing landing on the ground made "Qiao Ran'er" stunned for a moment, and then he looked around and frowned slightly, and there was no change after several attempts of pinching his fingers.

He squatted down, picked up the jade ring, and carefully examined the patterns on it.

When he saw a spot of glazed light on the jade ring, he froze in place and looked around in horror.

"Your jade ring is quite interesting. Was it created by a senior from the Thief Sect? The craftsmanship is obviously very ordinary, and the material is not very good, but it can buy you a chance to see through the illusion and reflect the truth."

Chu Tai's voice sounded beside "Qiao Ran'er".

Layer upon layer of glazed veils were lifted up by several illusory fairies. In an instant, dream and reality were reversed, and illusion and reality were misplaced.

"Qiao Ran'er" looked around and found that she was still in the Baiyun Temple, still standing in front of Chu Tai.

The only change is that his image has become that of the pilgrim.

"Qiao Ran'er" shuddered all over and whispered, "What's the use of having good means? They are not as good as the magic of the immortals. I am addicted to them and don't know whether they are true or false. Even the jade ring can be seen through, but you let it go."

"That's not it."

Chu Tai stretched out his hand and took the jade ring in his hand. The glazed light had already occupied most of it. He smiled and said, "I originally thought that this thing was something you used to contact your elders for help, so I let it do its job after refining it. I didn't expect that such a small ring actually had three layers of magic prohibitions that blocked each other, one for asking for help, one for concealment, and one for detection."

"Also, the concealment ability in the middle and the insight ability at the end should be related to your daily deception and theft. Every time you successfully disguise, deceive, and steal, a trace of illusory aura will be left behind, which will be absorbed by the two levels of magic prohibition, increasing the magical effect of this jade ring, making it more difficult to be discovered, and the insight into illusions will be stronger. At the same time, it is also a further cover-up of the true ability of the first level of magic prohibition."

After saying this, Chu Tai's body changed, becoming an illusory image of a celestial maiden, and Yuhuan turned into a circle to trap her, turning her upside down, reversing reality and illusion.

"Qiao Ran'er", who had been prepared, jumped and fell into layer after layer of glazed gauze. She fell to the ground in an instant and fell asleep.

Looking at "Qiao Ran'er" lying on the ground, Chu Tai's palm showed the Hunyuan Shangling Yuhuang Miaodao Treasure Scroll, and invisible threads stretched out from it. After waiting for a while, he slowly said, "Senior, are you not going to take action?"

"Do it. Can I catch you?"

A faint shadow appeared beside "Qiao Ran'er", looked at Chu Tai and exclaimed: "As expected of a disciple of Taiyi Jinhua Sect, your methods are amazing. The one above is the Miro Heaven-shading Umbrella held by your leader, it seems to have also integrated the former Taibai Thousand Light Lock of Jinhua Sect and some of the mysteries of the talisman in your hand. As for these secret magics, it seems that you have completely refined them. With such methods, except for the several direct lineages of the Heavenly Demon, the other three major demon sects would feel ashamed..."

"It's not as good as the senior's magic hands. This method of stealing can actually steal the concept of the universe and distance, so that you who are not here can send down some power at the first time. At the same time, it steals the power of my disciples to gain a stronger foundation, ensuring that I can protect my disciples afterwards, or steal things from me..."

As he spoke, Chu Tai glanced at the precious scroll in his hand. He didn't know when a few faint hand prints appeared on the invisible silk thread.
