My supernatural profession is too unique.

Chapter 30 Discovering Song Jing's Trail

"Destroy!"

With a roar, spiritual light surged from the Kitchen God statue and flowed into the stove fire.

The blazing fire, accompanied by a spiritual light, instantly dispelled the immense pressure on his body.

It directly enveloped a black, ugly worm.

It was burned to ashes in a short time.

The strange phenomena around them disappeared.

"call!"

Li Ling exhaled, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

If it weren't for the timely discovery by the Kitchen God's Eye, I might have lost my life just now.

"This soul-devouring gu is truly bizarre."

Li Ling's gaze swept over the corpse.

The malevolent aura on the two corpses had completely dissipated by now.

Um?

At the same time, Li Ling suddenly realized that the cold spiritual power within the earth veins of his body had greatly increased, reaching the second level of Qi Refining.

The malevolent aura emanating from these two corpses is truly formidable.

He tried to sense the magical power within the earth's veins and immediately felt a hazy, cold, and damp flow of energy within them.

"At this rate, we really need to find a proper and authentic cultivation method."

Li Ling frowned slightly.

After condensing the earth veins, even without activating his cultivation technique, the zombie earth statue can actively absorb the surrounding evil energy and improve its cultivation level.

He had completely absorbed the malevolent energy within the crematorium over the past two days.

In addition, having absorbed the malevolent energy from these two corpses today, the earth-attribute spiritual energy cultivation within the earth veins has directly broken through to the second level of Qi Refining.

The only solution is to find a way to cultivate the Earth Vein Technique, otherwise my meridians will eventually give out.

As I was pondering this, two images suddenly flashed into my mind.

"This is the information provided by these two corpses."

Li Ling narrowed his eyes.

This soul gu is really strange, and he wants to figure out what's going on.

He then closed his eyes and began to observe carefully.

······.

On the border of a desolate mountain, there is a stilted village.

"what!"

In a dimly lit room in a bamboo house, a man in black robes suddenly let out a scream.

A mouthful of black blood spurted from his mouth.

Suddenly, a burst of fire shot into the sky from a black urn in front of him.

It was accompanied by faint cries and screams.

The white silk cocoons that were originally woven at the mouth of the urn were burning fiercely, and in a moment they were charred black.

The flames were fleeting.

Only a black Gu worm remained inside the spirit urn, screaming in agony.

Its body was charred black, as if it had been burned by a raging fire.

The man in the black robe was even more listless and pale.

He took out a pill bottle, hastily poured out a blood-red pill, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it directly.

After a while, his pale complexion began to recover somewhat.

But he was still panting heavily, a cold glint in his eyes. Seeing the Soul Gu in the urn whose energy had plummeted, he was filled with rage.

"Song Jingming clearly stated that the person was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, how could he possibly kill the Soul Gu?"

The Soul Gu is already at the mid-stage of the first rank, and it uses a soul attack, so it won't suffer any losses even if it encounters someone at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Moreover, Song Jing even brought a few strands of this person's hair, ensuring that the Soul Gu would never attack the wrong target.

At this moment, the people waiting outside heard the noise inside the house.

The door was pushed open, and a man in his thirties walked in.

"Brother Mu, what's wrong?"

Looking at the situation before him, the man asked in surprise.

The man in black robes, panting, looked at the other man with a grim expression and said, "Song Jing, so the police officer is really at the fourth level of Qi Refining?"

Fortunately, his soul gu was a mother-child gu, otherwise he would have been severely injured this time.

However, even with months of nourishment with her essence and blood, the mother Gu's current vitality is difficult to recover.

Therefore, he absolutely did not believe that this was something a Qi Refining Level 4 cultivator could do.

The man was none other than Song Jing of the Song family.

He nodded, his expression solemn, and said, "Absolutely no mistake!"

This information was personally given to him by his cousin, Song Shijie; how could it be wrong?

It now seems that Mutu's attempt to ambush Li Ling with Gu worms has failed.

This kid's really tough!

Last time they were able to kill Bai Zhongkui, and this time they're able to escape again.

It seems it's not that simple after all.

"This time my Soul Gu has been destroyed, so you'll have to pay double the price."

Mutu glanced at Song Jing with a cold look, then closed his eyes and resumed his work.

Upon hearing this, Song Jing's lips twitched. Getting Mu Tu to take action had come at a considerable cost.

······.

Xijiang County, crematorium.

"It's actually Song Jing?"

As the images flashed through his mind, Li Ling's gaze darkened.

From the information provided by the two corpses, he discovered that the two men were smugglers of medicinal herbs.

Moreover, the medicinal herbs collected were mainly sold to Song Jing.

For some unknown reason, she had a falling out with Song Jing this time.

He was killed in his sleep by a Gu cultivator who used a soul Gu.

"Song Jing is indeed hiding in the desolate border region, in the Blackwood Village."

"And he only escaped on the day Bai Zhongkui's case occurred."

Li Ling's eyes flashed, and he felt that more and more things in this case were becoming strange.

"Song Jing is hiding in Blackwood Village. Should we report this to the station?"

Li Ling stroked his chin, pondering to himself.

He did not trust Xie Gui.

Lu Lingyun is someone I can trust.

However, his immediate superior was Xie Gui, who reported directly to Lu Lingyun, which was considered acting beyond his authority.

I will inevitably offend Xie Gui in the future.

I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Song Jing's case is of great importance, not only concerning the Song family, but also because Lu Lingyun needs to find out about the other corpse cultivators of the Yuling Sect.

Otherwise, they could have lurked within the city, ready to disrupt the entire Earthly Fiend Blood Corpse Array and destroy the underground magic array of Xijiang County.

That would be too dangerous.

Moreover, he had a vague premonition that this attack by the Soul Gu was really strange.

He was not the first person to examine the two bodies.

Why weren't the others attacked?

[Kitchen Official/Police Officer] Favorability -1 (Indecisive and fussy)

Seeing the improvement appear, Li Ling's lips twitched, and he immediately made a decision, "I'll just tell Captain Lu directly, but I need to choose a suitable excuse."

After all, the source of the information and other details need to be clarified.

"Or, we could say it was a message from our informant."

"It's perfectly normal for police officers to have informants, and no one else will question them."

"Furthermore, this will provide an explanation for the information I gather from the continued collection of corpses."

After some thought, Li Ling had an idea.

Given Lu Lingyun's status, she certainly wouldn't ask about informants.

A line of text slowly appeared on the panel labeled "[Kitchen Official/Police Officer]".

[Task to be completed] Capture Song Jing, increase favorability by 10.

Goodness, this is urging me to solve the case.

According to the information obtained from the institute, Song Jingke is at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

They then hid in Blackwood Village.

What can I use to catch it?
