Chapter 532: Chapter 524: Divine Retribution and Slaughter Business

They extracted tears from the ox’s eyes to make a special fluid, after which they would dab fresh willow leaves in it and wipe it over both eyes, a method known as the Heaven Eye Technique. At that point, they could clearly see ghosts and malevolent entities.

However, this kind of Heaven Eye Technique was considered the simplest and most superficial method within the Taoist magic arts.

Against some powerful ghosts or evil spirits, it could easily become ineffective.

Truly formidable Immortal Masters would directly use their mana to perform the Heaven Eye Technique, rendering even slightly stronger ghosts unable to hide before them.

And there were even more powerful practitioners who cultivated a third divine eye, transforming it into a Divine Skill.

Individuals like Wen Zhong and Yang Jian were outstanding representatives of such Divine Skills.

In the future, if Qin Niu needed, he could use the tears of Green Ox to perform the Heaven Eye Technique to search for traces of malevolent spirits.

“Master Qin is exceptionally talented, with his strength skyrocketing overnight, it’s truly enviable,” Chi Xing felt Qin Niu’s formidable cultivation, literally watching him grow stronger and being surpassed by him.

What was even more preposterous was that the half-grown water buffalo raised by Qin Niu was also a freak just like its master.

The aura it exuded changed drastically with each passing day.

Chi Xing had no idea what kind of ‘divine being’ he had encountered.

“Everyone has their own fortunes, Brother Chi doesn’t need to envy me. Speaking of which, I should thank you for providing me with information, which allowed me to seize this opportunity. However, with my current strength, I’m afraid I’m far from capable of helping you take your revenge. We still have to work together,” Qin Niu said with extreme humility.

Staying low-key and playing the fool had always been his strong suit.

Two of the elders from the Nine Insect Gang had been fooled by his ostensible strength and ended up dead in a gutter, meeting unfortunate ends.

“Take me to see that old thief’s cultivation site; perhaps we can find out some of his secrets,” Qin Niu urged.

Qin Niu was very adept at controlling others.

Chi Xing, decades his senior, was completely manipulated by Qin Niu and willingly followed him.

At the moment, the thing Chi Xing cared about the most was avenging his wife.

As long as Qin Niu occasionally brought it up, Chi Xing would be firmly tethered to him.

The two soon arrived at the cave.

Returning to this heartbreaking place evoked painful memories for Chi Xing; he could squeeze out water from his clenched fists, and his expression turned frightfully fierce, his eyes menacing.

“It’s just a simple cave that was temporarily excavated, nothing extraordinary,” Qin Niu commented after inspecting the outside, then released several Green Ring Worker Bees to scout for information.

They buzzed their wings and flew into the cave.

No one was inside anymore, and the Gold-Striped Lightning Leopard had also disappeared without a trace.

After confirming that the cave was free of danger, Qin Niu dared to enter.

The cave was only about twelve or thirteen square meters, with a narrow entrance and dark lighting inside. There was no furniture for living purposes, but the cave walls had varying depths of palm prints and traces of fingers digging.

Upon closer examination, he noticed that these palm prints had slight marks of high-temperature burns.

In some places, there were even signs of high-temperature rock formation, like that of bricks after firing. The texture felt extremely hard to the touch.

“The Raging Flame Palm of Fire Cloud Tunnel is indeed terrifying; to be able to burn the soil until it vitrifies, how high must the temperature be?” Qin Niu wondered, estimating the temperature to reach at least that of ordinary flames.

Worried that the Sixth Cave Master would return here to continue his secluded cultivation, Qin Niu did not destroy any part of the cave to avoid alerting the old thief that someone had investigated the place and raising his vigilance.

Even after so many had been killed, there were no human corpses, skeletons, or clothes to be seen inside the cave.

After Qin Niu finished examining the cave, he started searching the surrounding area.

Not far below in a mountain stream, Qin Niu found a heap of white bones, belonging to at least a hundred bodies, some with their clothing still intact, both men and women.

There were even clothes from local residents of the No Peak Sect, like animal skin skirts, which only the locals would wear.

“This scoundrel has killed countless, has the No Peak Sect really not noticed?” Qin Niu pondered.

“I’m not sure about that. But the experts of the No Peak Sect are very selfish and don’t place much value on the lives of ordinary people. They also don’t want to offend the two adjacent super sects easily, so even if they do find out, as long as Fang Hanshan doesn’t go too far, they turn a deaf ear and pretend to be unaware of the matter,” Chi Xing explained.
