Chapter 420: Chapter 416: Two Clues Chapter 420: Chapter 416: Two Clues All of them were grain avoidance cultivators, who had yet to reach the realm of the soul condensation stage. Their Divine Senses were momentarily incapable of projecting outward. Therefore, if Hu Yong refused to perform this task, no one else could.
“Forget it, I hate trouble the most, so let's just spend some money. I have some 'conceal breath symbols' here that can temporarily seal your breath. As long as you don't deliberately mobilize a significant amount of mana, your breath won't leak, those ghost creatures won't be able to detect your presence, and we will be able to proceed safely.” After hesitating for a moment, Hu Yong spoke as if he had made up his mind.
Following that, he turned his wrist, and in his palm, a flash of light revealed several talismans made of a blue material.
Upon seeing the Green Frost Paper, Shen Luo knew that these talismans were not ordinary low-grade ones, which made him understand why Hu Yong had been hesitant before.
“It's easy to use this conceal breath symbol, just stick it to your Dantian or Danzhong, you don't need to mobilize mana to activate it, it can use your running mana and help you cover your breath.” Hu Yong distributed the talismans to everyone and explained.
On hearing this, Shen Luo hesitated. After all, the Dantian was the foundation of cultivation and Danzhong is also an essential acupoint of the body. He instinctively resisted the idea of sticking the talisman to these two positions.
“Thank you, elder.” Lu He immediately accepted it and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you, elder, for bestowing the symbol on us.” Jin Dun and the others echoed it as well.
“Bestowing the symbol, my ass! Do you think I'm a wealthy landlord? Those conceal breath symbols are only lent to you all. You need to return them once you are done.” Hu Yong replied, not showing any grace expected of an elder.
Everyone just chuckled when they heard his words.
Hu Yong took a symbol and without any hesitation, lifted the Hem of his robe and put the symbol on the inner layer lined up with his Dantian. Seeing Shen Luo scrutinizing him, he explained:
“My cultivation level is higher than you all, so the fluctuation of my breath is naturally stronger. It's more secure to stick it to the Dantian. As for you guys… whether you want to stick it to your Dantian or Danzhong, I don't care.”
Lu He and the others followed Hu Yong's example and stuck their symbols to their Dantians. Only Yun Niang felt that sticking it to the Dantian was not very elegant, so she put her symbol onto the middle of her bosom.
Shen Luo did not follow the majority and instead, like Yun Niang, stuck the symbol to his chest.
Then, Hu Yong turned his palm once again. Another light shone in his palm. This time the light revealed a dark gold disc, about the size of a bronze mirror. The disc was intricately designed. Its outer ring was divided into three hundred and sixty-five degrees, marking the solar year, the inner ring was marked with the twenty-four solar terms, and inside that, the diagram of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams was engraved, while in the center, a pointer in the form of a small dragon was suspended.
When the group went forward to take a look, as soon as the Evil-
“That zombie just now… it seems they have failed.” Yun Niang said with a frown.
“Even the government is involved. If they failed once, they will definitely send more powerful people next time. It seems we need to speed up. We can't let them take the lead. Otherwise, we will have all our efforts for nothing, not gaining anything.” Hu Yong seemed not too surprised, but was a bit anxious.
Upon hearing this, Lu He and the others all nodded in agreement.
Shen Luo put the token away, but he had a vague sense of unease. This task, which even involved the government, was probably not as simple as they had initially thought.
Afterward, Hu Yong led them through the woods, stopping and hiding from armies of ghost soldiers and zombies occasionally. But overall, they were safe and sound. Finally, they halted in an open area in the forest.
