Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 257 The Power of Spiritual Clothes
"call!!!"

The wind was howling, and accompanied by the sunshine, Xiao Ran leaped up into the air. In just a blink of an eye, he was already hundreds of meters in the air.

Looking at the scenery below his feet, Xiao Ran's eyes flashed with brilliance.

"Cool!"

Flying into the sky and riding on the clouds, I believe this is what every Chinese person yearns for in their hearts, or it is a vision that has been engraved in their bones since childhood.

Any boy who has read Journey to the West will inevitably have a similar complex.

Xiao Ran had never dared to imagine that one day he would have such ability, but now he only needed a thought and soared into the air in a blink of an eye. It was inevitable that he felt a little excited.

But after feeling it carefully, I found a row of white numbers in front of me.

189.

The number was falling down little by little as I flew into the air.

According to the instructions of [Spiritual Clothes], this number should be the strength value obtained by one's spirit x3.

Next, every move you make will quickly consume this thing.

Once this strength value is exhausted, you cannot return to your physical body and will inevitably suffer severe punishment.

It is unknown what it is, but if you use your toes to think about it, you will know that it will definitely not be a good ending.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran had to give up his original idea of flying into the air. He turned around and quickly scanned the ground.

At this moment, he was like an eagle circling in the air, circling in the air against the wind.

With just a quick glance, he immediately noticed a figure.

In other words, it would be hard not to notice the other person's figure and makeup. Who would cover themselves so tightly in the middle of summer and wear an old-fashioned round hat, making themselves look like a spy or traitor? Let alone Xiao Ran, with this outfit, even if you enter the community, the security guard will ask you a few questions, and without verifying your ID card, he probably won't let you in.

"It can't be wrong, it's you!"

Xiao Ran's eyes were fixed on the figure, his eyes revealing murderous intent without any concealment. He turned around to see the sun setting behind him, and couldn't help but wonder how to kill this guy.

"Day walk, no physical close combat, otherwise why bother, just go down and chop it to death with one blow."

If there is any flaw in the spiritual robe, it is probably only this.

"But just because I can't fight in close combat doesn't mean my men can't fight in close combat. It's still early, let's settle this account today."

In a moment, Xiao Ran had already made a plan in his heart.

"Damn!!"

At this moment, Huang Jinye couldn't help but curse inwardly.

He looked back with a suspicious expression, and his pair of deep brown eyes began to look around.

He glanced around but couldn't see anything strange.

The road leading to the funeral home is desolate, with no village in front and no shop behind. There used to be some villagers living there, but they have moved away one after another over the years, simply because people think it is unlucky to live near a funeral home. Nowadays, even Beimang Mountain has been transformed into a forest park, and real estate projects and villas have been built nearby. However, it is said that the local government cannot sell this piece of land even at a loss.

So apart from the occasional passing vehicles, this area is just a wasteland that you can see the end of at a glance.

But precisely because of this, at this moment, Huang Jinye's uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.

The murderous aura that made the hairs on his back stand up had never disappeared since he set his eyes on him. Huang Jinye even felt like someone was watching him closely.

He immediately quickened his pace and waited until he was on the main road, where there were more people. He was not afraid that the other party would dare to attack him in broad daylight.

"This is weird, where does this guy come from? He prepared so many Tian Anzhu to ward off evil, how come he broke it just like that?"

Huang Jinye felt fear in his heart.

In order to kill this guy, I prepared for several days before finding a woman.

A unique skill was specially prepared for Xiao Ran, the Dark Pearl Vow.

This is their family's unique trick, which can kill people without them being seen. They need to find a woman who is pregnant but no more than three months pregnant as the key to trigger the hatred.

Once it is activated, the other party's soul will be absorbed into the belly of the female corpse. At that time, the sky will be dark and the belly will be filled with filth and evil, just like the human bag in Journey to the West. If anyone falls into it, there will be no reincarnation.

At that time, all you have to do is throw the woman's body into the crematorium, and even if the gods come, it will be useless.

He prepared this technique carefully.

He expected that Xiao Ran would be caught off guard, but he didn't expect that as soon as he walked out of the funeral home, he found that his magic had been broken.

This inevitably made Huang Jinye panic, and he felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

Thinking of this, Huang Jinye couldn't help but quicken his pace. As soon as he reached the main road ahead, he would take a car and leave quickly. At least he would not show up again for a long time, and he would also decline this task.

Unless he could figure out how the other party had broken his magic, he would never take on this mission.

Although Huang Jinye's idea was good, it was just a little too late.

"Brother, it's too late to leave now!!"

Suddenly, Xiao Ran's voice came from above his head, followed by the sound of breaking wind, and then Shen Kuaidao's figure suddenly fell from mid-air.

"Not good!" Huang Jinye sensed the murderous intent coming from above his head, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly took out a cursed object, which was an exquisite bronze beast head wristband. The light blue curse pattern quickly merged into the wristband, and then he held it high above his head.

"Roar!!"

A golden light then flashed from the beast head on the wrist guard.

"Bang bang bang!!"

A series of chopping sounds, as dense and crackling as firecrackers set off at festivals, all hit the golden light.

"Horizontal training?"

In mid-air, Xiao Ran was guessing the guy's profession in his mind. After any profession reaches level D, its characteristics are particularly obvious. For example, the profession of [Henglian] obviously highlights high attack and defense.

Therefore, the characteristics of most cursed objects combined with [Horizontal Refining] are very obvious.

But when Xiao Ran took a closer look, he felt that they didn't look alike.

His pupils were fixed on the golden light, but he also noticed that the surrounding metals were decaying rapidly, such as the roadside railings and the street lamp on the left.

Even the two short knives in Shen Kuaidao's hands began to rust.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran quickly ordered Shen Kuaidao to stop attacking and looked at the man with a frown.

"Shen Kuaidao??"

Huang Jinye raised his head, and his eyes under the round hat were fixed on the figure attacking him. Then he slowly raised his head, and when he looked at Xiao Ran floating in the air, Huang Jinye's pupils tightened.

Although cursed objects that allow people to fly are rare, they do exist.

The most common tattoo among the public is the [Eagle Wing Tattoo] by the evil tattoo artist. This thing can be tattooed on the back for about 10 ghost money in Bone Spirit Street.

When falling from a high altitude, you can enter a state of short-distance gliding.

Of course, there are also high-end products that can give people the ability to fly for a short period of time, but the price is a little bit higher. These tattoos are disposable consumables, but everyone is very enthusiastic about them. After all, they can save lives at critical moments.

As for cursed items, all he knew was that there was one in Donglongfang called the [Floating Shuttle]. Although it was only a D-level cursed item, its ability to fly made it extremely valuable.

But no matter what kind of cursed object it is, it cannot be compared with Xiao Ran standing casually in the air at this moment.

The Xiao Ran in front of him looked more like a god from a myth.

I've never heard of anyone being able to float in the air without moving.

"What is the origin of this guy? Wasn't it agreed that it was just a [Horizontal Refiner]? Can your horizontal refiner fly?"

Huang Jinye's heart was filled with shock. When he took over the task, Changchun would give him information. There were only two key points: one was that this person was a master of [Horizontal Refining], and the other was that he had extraordinary swordsmanship. He also suspected that the deaths of the spirit snake and the tiger were closely related to this person.

Apart from this, there is no other information.

In fact, it is understandable if you think about it. His extraordinary swordsmanship is enough to rank among the top among many beginners.

Therefore, most people would selectively ignore Xiao Ran’s other abilities.

It's like a rich man who is very ugly but so rich that people ignore his appearance when talking about him.

Although Huang Jinye was shocked in his heart at this moment, he did not look panicked. Instead, he looked at Xiao Ran with interest.

He glanced at Shen Kuaidao beside him and said disdainfully, "You don't think you can do anything to me with just a corpse, do you?"

Xiao Ran snorted coldly without saying anything. He just raised his hand and released the spirit snake and the archer together.

Including himself, the four of them formed a double-team.

Huang Jinye glanced at the other two bodies. The archer was holding a short bow, which posed no threat to him at all. As for...

His eyes turned to the spirit snake.

He frowned, obviously recognizing her, but didn't take it seriously. Although Ling Snake was one of the twelve zodiac signs of Changchun Society, everyone knew that she was just an auxiliary.

In the end, his eyes were still on Xiao Ran.

"Although I don't know how you broke my spell, but if you chase me, you'll be courting death!"

As he spoke, Huang Jinye took out another cursed object from the space. This thing looked like a magical tool, a cone.

Behind them are statues of four strange babies.

Huang Jinye knew that Xiao Ran was not a good person, and that he would kill with his first move. He activated the cursed object and then inserted it heavily into his own heart.

As the blood flowed into the cursed object, the four strange babies behind it seemed to come alive. They opened their eyes and made low, sneaky sounds from their mouths.

"Don't think you're the only one who knows this!"

Xiao Ran snorted coldly, and slowly took out a bowl from the space and held it in his palm. He saw the word "broken" written on the bottom of the porcelain bowl.

At the same time, Lingshe, Shen Kuaidao and Archer also took out a bowl.

The other three bowls were inscribed with the words "孤", "贫" and "寡" respectively.

It was the cursed objects [Four bowls for loneliness, widowhood, disability and poverty]. The mouths of the four bowls were pointed at Huang Jinye at the same time, and a haze was reflected on Huang Jinye's forehead.
