Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 454 Where's the sedan chair?
Chen Xin was truly surprised that the Xia family's methods were no less effective than the Tongyou Seal, or rather, to some extent, the Tongyou Seal was inferior to the Xia family's methods.

Although the Netherworld Seal can travel and teleport in the Netherworld, it cannot, like the Xia family, see through the layers from the first to the tenth, or even directly open a passage to the target location and send people there!
Before this, after gaining a deeper understanding of organizations such as the Bureau of Investigation and the Divine Messenger, Chen Xin always thought that he was the only one in the world who could treat the Netherworld as his backyard, going there and leaving there whenever he wanted.

Only today did he realize he was wrong.

If the Netherworld weren't so vast, Chen Xin would have even thought that the Xia family had used their 'clairvoyance' ability to see everything he did in the Netherworld, including creating the Copper Pillar Prison and suppressing the God of Turbidity.

"Indeed, never underestimate anyone."

Chen Xin sighed inwardly and looked at the sedan chair that was gradually turning around and slowly approaching him with the footsteps of four 'people'.

Only then did Chen Xin realize that the skin of those four 'people' was not pale, but rather that they were not 'people' or corpses!

The people carrying the sedan chair were four identical paper effigies with smiling faces painted on their faces and bloodshot eyes!
"Paper figures carrying a sedan chair?"

Watching the sedan chair's movement, Chen Xin didn't rush to make a move; instead, he began to move his body laterally in the darkness.

As he moved, the direction the sedan chair was facing also changed.

Chen Xin stopped and pulled back to create more distance.

This seemed to trigger something, and the four paper figures started moving much faster. They moved forward and backward, but the distance between them didn't increase; they continued to approach slowly at the same pace as before.

"So, you have to get close before you make a move?"

Chen Xin became interested and moved his body backward more quickly, with the sedan chair following suit.

The two are like two ropes tied together, never growing too far apart.

……

Chen Xin's actions with the sedan chair were observed by Xia Wuyou and the other three.

"Hehe, that's what I did back then. Unfortunately, no matter how fast I was, it could always catch up. Unless I left the God Realm, once I encountered this sedan chair and it identified it as its target, the distance between us would never be widened."

Xia Chuanren is one of the three living Yin spirits of the Xia family.

"And it has more than just this one ability..."

"Tsk, it's fortunate that it's in the realm of gods. If it had really appeared in the mortal world, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before there were no living people left in the entire Great Xia, let alone the entire Blue Star."

Hearing Xia Chuanren say this, the other three could imagine what would happen when this sedan chair appeared in the Yangshi Society.

In the brief moment Xia Chuanren was speaking, Chen Xin's speed began to increase rapidly in his field of vision.

Although Xia Chuanren was surprised by the speed at which this underworld traveled, he still shook his head.

"it's useless……"

Before he could finish speaking, he noticed that the distance between Chen Xin and the sedan chair had returned from nearly fifty meters to a hundred meters.

This change seemed to have stunned not only Xia Chuanren, but also the sedan chair that was chasing Chen Xin. This moment of hesitation caused the distance to widen by more than a hundred meters.

If Chen Xin hadn't stopped, the distance would have continued to increase!

"Did he just teleport forward a short distance out of thin air?"

Xia Chuanren turned to look at Xia Chuanshan, and only after seeing the other nod did Xia Chuanren realize that he had not misread it.

"What's going on? Ancestor, what's the deal with this Underworld Traveler?"

Xia Chuanren looked at Xia Wuyou and asked in surprise.

Xia Wuyou frowned at this moment, and just as he was about to speak, he seemed to hear something.

Immediately, a figure was pulled into this space.

Who else could it be but Xia Xianfeng?
Xia Xianfeng was also a little confused at this time. After returning and settling in, he was taken to the ancestral hall to report on the situation of this trip.

Who knew that as soon as they started talking about traveling through the underworld and traversing the netherworld, their spirits were summoned and directly entered this space.

He had been here before, but this was the first time he had faced the three most powerful Yin Gods in the family, as well as the family's first Yin God ancestor.

He became somewhat reserved.

"Xiaofeng, right? Tell me about what happened on this trip, mainly about that underworld traveler."

"Yes!"

Xia Xianfeng immediately recounted everything that had happened during the operation.

In reality, there isn't much information about traveling through the underworld. The only thing is that traveling through the underworld can take them through the netherworld, achieving a teleportation-like effect.

"What's strange is that even when I leave my body, I can't see anything."

After Xia Xianfeng finished speaking, the other four ancestors fell silent.

Following their gaze, he saw the figure on the 'screen' covered in some unknown substance, and he also saw the sedan chair.

He recognized this sedan chair; the ancestor had once demonstrated its power to them in order to help them understand the power of the God of the Chaotic World.

Could this be some kind of test?

In his confusion, he saw the sedan chair move. Four sedan chair bearers, as if enraged, strode forward and carried the sedan chair at great speed toward the figure.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the location of that figure!

The figure vanished as if it had been shattered by the impact.

Xia Xianfeng sensed something was wrong; the previous demonstration seemed different from this one.

The previous experiment was conducted by the Xia family using a prisoner captured from outside the area. That prisoner was a Yin cultivator whose strength reached the Blood Calamity level.

When the prisoner approached the sedan chair, the curtain of the sedan chair opened automatically, and the prisoner, with a smile, voluntarily crawled inside.

But this time, the sedan chair curtain didn't open, and the sedan chair didn't stop; the person simply vanished!

And this time, the sedan chair was moving way too fast!

This was nothing like the previous shaky approach to the prisoner.

Just as Xia Xianfeng was wondering, the sedan chair moved again!
Not only did it move, but Xia Xianfeng also saw that the mouths painted on the faces of the four paper figures carrying sedan chairs changed from upturned to downturned, and their originally curved eyebrows also stood up.

He's clearly angry!
What is it angry about?

Just then, the sedan chair set off again, moving so fast that it left a trail of afterimages behind it!
To his surprise, Xia Xianfeng finally spotted the sedan chair he was looking for.

Isn't that the person who was just 'shattered'?

Is he okay?
Just as Xia Xianfeng was filled with doubt, the person was knocked apart again.

This happened dozens of times afterward.

Each time, the sedan chair seemed to increase its speed, but each time, it was unable to fit the person inside.

This was the first time Xia Xianfeng had ever seen such a situation.

Just then, Xia Xianfeng heard an old ancestor speak; it was the powerful Xia Chuanren.

"Tsk, so this is how you force that sedan chair to use that ability? I thought the only way to make it change was to beat it up."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xianfeng looked at the sedan chair again.

The sedan chair had stopped by then, and the four sedan chair bearers not only looked furious, but their faces also turned from pale to bright red!

They glared angrily at the person who was about a hundred meters away from them.

This situation reminded Xia Xianfeng of the last time his family had shown them this sedan chair.

At that time, the family sent more than ten people into the space where the sedan chair was located.

The appearance of more than ten targets at once seemed to trigger some kind of mechanism of the sedan chair. Immediately, the sedan chair split into two, the two became four, and the four became eight!

In the blink of an eye, the number of people in the sedan chair matched the number of people in the target group.

Then things became much simpler. Each sedan chair was holding onto its own target, and no matter how far the target ran, it would be caught.

After all the targets were captured, the sedan chairs gathered together again, like a gluttonous snake, one devouring another.

However, unlike the game Snake, the sedan chair did not grow a tail after being swallowed.

The current situation inevitably reminded Xia Xianfeng of that time.

Although this is only one target, it seems more difficult to handle than ten targets.

Just as Xia Xianfeng was speculating, the sedan chair finally changed.

Just as he expected, the sedan chair split apart. But what he hadn't anticipated was the sheer number of pieces that would break apart!
One is divided into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen...

In the blink of an eye, Xia Xianfeng's field of vision was completely filled with sedan chairs.

When the ancestor zoomed out, Xia Xianfeng saw a sphere surrounded by hundreds or even thousands of sedan chairs!

Their target is in the center of the ball.

However, because the sedan chair blocked his view, Xia Xianfeng could not see the situation of the target inside.

"So, how can he possibly escape?"

This idea wasn't just on Xia Xianfeng's mind.

Xia Wuyou, Xia Chuanren, and the others also felt that this time, it was probably coming to an end.
"It seems we need to prepare to make a move?"

Xia Chuanren said with a somewhat solemn expression.

Although they went into the underworld with the intention of rescuing people, the current situation seemed to have exceeded their expectations.

The journey to the underworld angered the sedan chair!

Upon hearing this, Xia Wuyou frowned and said, "Wait a little longer. We'll make our move after he's completely captured by the sedan chair."

Xia Wuyou did this for two reasons. First, he wanted to make the Underworld suffer a bit, so that when he took action again, he would naturally gain their favor.

Another reason is that he is unsure whether, if he intervenes now, the enraged sedan chair will also target the rescuers.

If Xia Chuanren and his men were to be implicated, it would be an immeasurable loss for the Xia family.

Therefore, we must first get the sedan chair, and then the sedan chair will have a short 'digestion' period.

Just as Xia Wuyou was making his calculations, the sedan chairs started moving.

It wasn't that all the sedan chairs moved at the same time; rather, one sedan chair after another was launched little by little from the sphere and moved inwards.

After each portion is launched, the outermost sedan chair will automatically fill the gap, blocking the gap left by the departing sedan chair.

In this way, as the outer 'sphere' gets smaller and smaller, it means that the center of that 'sphere' becomes more and more 'solid'!
Although Xia Wuyou couldn't see what was happening inside, he could imagine what kind of scene the underworld official would face as the sedan chair was pushed deeper and deeper into the underworld.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe half a minute, maybe a minute.

Xia Wuyou and the others saw the sedan chairs begin to merge into the interior one after another.

Soon, the thousands of sedan chairs that made up the sphere were completely merged, leaving only the one in the middle.

At this moment, all four sedan chair bearers changed from angry faces to smiling faces.

So how could Xia Wuyou not know what had happened?
"Go ahead and rescue it. Once you've rescued it, just leave. Provoking it again won't benefit you either."

"Understood, Ancestor. Rest assured, it's safer to send Chuanshan and me in."

Xia Chuanren said.

Xia Wuyou nodded, and then a vortex that grew larger and larger suddenly appeared in the middle of the 'screen'.

Soon, the vortex transformed into a black and white passage!

Xia Chuanren and Xia Chuanshan said nothing, and together they flew into the passage. In the blink of an eye, the passage opened up, and the 'screen' reappeared.

"Ancestor, who was that person who was swallowed?"

Xia Xianfeng finally couldn't help but ask.

After all, he was extremely curious about the identity of the only three Yin Gods in his family who could rival the God of Chaos who were sent to save someone.

Xia Wuyou didn't turn around, but said with his hands behind his back, "Him? He's the Underworld Walker you brought back."

Xia Xianfeng was stunned.

Traveling through the underworld?

wrong!

"What we brought back?"

"Yes, they must have some means of tracking you through the maze and finding the ancestral land."

Xia Xianfeng's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down.

"Please punish me, Ancestor!"

"Well, we're already here, and besides, it might not be a bad thing."

Xia Wuyou looked at the sedan chair and said calmly.

If Xia Xianfeng hadn't gone out this time, and if the people from the underworld hadn't followed out of curiosity, the Xia family probably wouldn't have known that the underworld organization they took for granted was actually comparable to the Xia family.

This served as a reminder to him.

Although the Xia family has the potential to build a divine kingdom and leave this world, they are ultimately not invincible.

It's better to solve problems before they arise than to encounter them at the last step.

Thinking this, Xia Wuyou turned her gaze to Xia Chuanren and Xia Chuanshan, who had already separated.

At this moment, the two stood a hundred meters apart on either side of the sedan chair, with black and white energies swirling on their hands.

Because there were 'people' inside the sedan chair, the sedan chair ignored the two people.

The two began to clasp their hands together in front of them.

Within the ancestral land, the black and white energies inside the sun where Xia Wuyou resided began to decrease.

At the same time, Xia Chuanren and his companion had more and more black and white energy in their hands.

The black and white energy in Xia Chuanren's hand quickly transformed into a two-colored flowing blade, while the black and white energy in Xia Chuanshan's hand tangled into a rope.

As long as the knife cuts open the sedan chair, the rope will go in and pull the person out!

This task, which should have been done by one person, was divided between two people, which is also a form of caution.

"Chuanshan! Get ready!"

Xia Chuanren shouted and raised the ordinary-sized black and white longsword.

"break!"

hum!
As the long sword fell, a phantom sword shadow grew larger and longer as the sword descended.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred-meter-long sword shadow enveloped the long sword that was only a meter long.

Just as the blade was about to land on the sedan chair, Xia Chuanshan's rope shot out.

But just as the blade was about to strike the top of the sedan chair, the sedan chair... vanished!

It's like a thick cloud of smoke being suddenly sucked up by a vacuum cleaner.

Where the sedan chair disappeared, where the 'vacuum cleaner' was, a person was standing.

Who else could it be but the one who walks the path of the underworld?

Xia Chuanren's eyes trembled. At this moment, he could not care about why the sedan chair was moving. He only wanted to try his best to control the knife and change its direction.

Unfortunately, under the downward pressure of the full-force slash, Xia Chuanren could not change it even slightly.

"It's over."

Xia Chuanren sighed helplessly.

The underworld official failed to save him and instead died at the hands of the Xia family.

This is really...

Click!

A faint, almost imperceptible sound came from behind.

Xia Chuanren only saw the blade shadow that was supposed to strike the head of the underworld walker suddenly break apart.

It's like, it's like someone made a cut with scissors!

But that's not cloth!
