1547 Biting the Hands That Feed You (1/2)

”Spirit-lit Lamps?”

None of them had ever heard of anything like this.

It was difficult for them to believe something they'd never heard of.

Feng Bucun looked sideways at Chen Xiaobei and snorted, ”Heh! You really like to complicate things unnecessarily, don't you? That would be a human lighting the candle and a spirit blowing it off. What stupid Spirit-lit Lamp? Don't pretend to know if you don't know! What a joke!”

Chen Xiaobei was not at all disturbed by this rude comment. He simply shrugged and said, ”If you don't believe me, you can just walk in and see for yourself.”

”Tha…” Feng Bucun did not know what to say. All the tough talk aside, he did not dare be the first to enter that passage.

Previously, when he ignored Chen Xiaobei's advice and tried to open the door with his sword, he got into trouble. Right now, Feng Bucun was not the only one who was afraid of entering first. In fact, none of them dared to do so.

”Didn't you say that I was pretending to know things I didn't know? Since you're the one who knows so much, then you should go ahead!” Chen Xiaobei challenged.

”I…” Feng Bucun turned red as a tomato.

Chen Xiaobei turned away from him and said, ”We all came to explore the tomb. You're all probably prepared to wrestle evil spirits with whatever measure you have with you! So, open your Yin Yang Eyes, and see. Then you'll know whether or not what I say is true!”

”Yin Yang eyes? I remember now!” Someone shouted from among the group, ”In an intelligence report, it was said that Chen Xiaobei was born with Yin Yang eyes. He must have seen something! Everyone do as he says!”

Everyone people began to take action.

The Chinese factions used the Taoist method, and drew small runes on yellow paper talismans using cinnabars.

Everyone had a piece of yellow paper which they burnt, and then they could, albeit for a limited amount of time, be able to use their Yin Yang eyes to see and hear Yin spirits.

The Americans on the other hand, all employed different methods.

The wizarding school chanted a spell, the Blood Descendants drew Star of Savid around their eyes, the Vaticans took out a special cross, and the Werewolves made pendants out of wolf teeth and silver pieces.

”My god! There are so many Yin spirits!”

The hundreds of people there shouted in surprise.

They saw countless Yin spirits floating in the deep and wide passage. There was a Yin spirit hovering around the top of each oil lamp.

The Yin spirits were all female, and were dressed in traditional palace clothing. These were probably palace maids.

When they looked at the oil lamps, they found that the red flames had all turned into blue wildfires.

Female spirits lighting up wildfires. If those were not Spirit-lit Lamps, then what else could they be?

”Hurry! Hurry! Everyone, take out whatever weapons you have to fight the Yin spirits. Let's charge!!!” Feng Bucun shouted.

Everyone began taking out their pure Yang Spiritual Items, or specific magical items that were used to deal with Yin spirits, and were ready to fight a battle against them.

”Stop!” Chen Xiaobei suddenly shouted. ”We cannot fight this battle!”

”What the hell are you talking about?” Feng Bucun frowned. ”They are blocking the way! If we don't get rid of them, how are we going to move forward?”

”Put your weapons away and just walk in!” Chen Xiaobei said.

”Are you out of your mind?” Feng Bucun shouted. ”You want us to walk through a passage filled with Yin spirits without our weapons? We'd be like lambs for slaughter walking to a lion's den!”
