Chapter 1576: Chapter 932: Execution_3
This is truly curious; if it’s not the Resentful Eye, what else could it be for a woman to keep so close to her?
Intrigued, Yang Xiao checked it with the Ghost Lantern first, confirmed there was no danger, and then cautiously opened it.
Inside was an object wrapped in cloth, tied with a thin hemp rope.
After untying the rope, Yang Xiao saw its true form. It was a black stone, about the size of a phone charger head, somewhat square, with edges showing it wasn’t complete, likely a fragment from a whole stone.
The stone felt very peculiar to the touch, smooth like Jade, yet different, as it felt light, more like wood.
At the bottom, Yang Xiao discovered some carved writing, ancient characters resembling oracle bone script, but he couldn’t recognize them due to limited knowledge.
At this moment, he roughly confirmed it was a seal, or a piece similar to a Jade Seal, and not small in complete form, just part of a larger whole.
Yang Xiao didn’t understand why the woman carried this item closely with her since it was not the Resentful Eye and had no unusual sensation, but he realized it was definitely useful and valuable.
Just because he couldn’t figure it out now, doesn’t mean he won’t in the future. Yang Xiao believes in the philosophy of survival, where one must take something away when the guns fire; otherwise, the trip would be wasted.
"I’ll hold onto it for now, find someone knowledgeable to look at it later. If it’s useful, I’ll use it; if not, I’ll sell it." Yang Xiao quickly packed up, put the stone back in the box, and placed it with a head in the secret room of the Mirror World.
With the Japanese woman’s death, the spatial world began to crumble, and Yang Xiao looked up at the "sky," exposing cracks, realizing he’d be able to leave soon.
Although anxious, he understood that forcing his way out now wouldn’t be wise; who knows what new troubles might arise, especially potential spiritual phenomena that could attract the Source Ghost, which would be troublesome; best to wait.
His gaze returned to the ground; certainly, the Japanese woman had many good Magic Artifacts, but Yang Xiao didn’t plan to take them, given the Source Ghost’s presence; it’s better to avoid further complications.
Furthermore, these artifacts seemed insufficient for Yang Xiao’s current status.
Before leaving the Esoteric Sect, Dean Sheng repeatedly advised him not to blindly acquire Magic Artifacts without him present. Those he already possessed were sufficient for now, needing optimization.
He specifically illustrated three artifacts to focus on: the Human Bone Staff, Ring Hand Blade, and Little Saint White Buddha’s famous artifact, the Ghost Bamboo Stick.
Not long ago, he used the Ghost Bamboo Stick to "activate" the ghost phone, a method he recently devised, akin to how he’d previously "activated" the Human Skin Mask.
Undoubtedly, this item is truly useful; previously, he treated it solely as an offensive Magic Artifact, seriously underestimated.
However, there was no alternative given his prior lack of strength; even a mountain of gold would have been underutilized.
The more dangerous the artifact, the higher the usage threshold. Yang Xiao began fantasizing about fully developing and deploying the Hundred Demons Coffin Clothes.
He once witnessed the battle between good sister and a group led by Jiang Han; it was like immortal combat, showcasing various powers.
Through Sheng Yanlin’s account, Yang Xiao confirmed the caliber of those martial arts experts besieging the sister; all were sect leaders or top-ranking figures of the era, without exception being top experts. Yet, even nine against one, were suppressed by the Ghost Coffin summoned by the sister, evidencing her formidable strength.
Thinking of it, besides being a bit lustful, cruel, nasty, and liking to enslave people, she didn’t have much else wrong.
Recalling that Big Red Ghost Coffin that once smashed his head, truth be told, Yang Xiao’s leg still trembled slightly.
Wondering if mastering the Hundred Demons Coffin Clothes could summon the Ghost Coffin to smash the sister to death.
No, smashing her to death seems too cruel; after all, she did save him even if her motives weren’t pure, but Yang Xiao is someone who knows gratitude.
"Smashing her to death would be inappropriate, too wasteful; it’s better to seal her and then extract her spiritual power to nourish myself." Yang Xiao secretly pondered.
