“Sure.” Huangfu Ruiling had no objection to this matter.

Then, he took Li San toward the altar.

Originally, he had planned to let Li San lead his men to search. However, after thinking about it, he decided that it would be better for him to go with them. As for Ye Leng’an, she went to the place where the four elders were imprisoned and dealt with them. Of course, Ye Leng’an didn’t forget to tell them that the so-called method to break the curse was just nonsense. They were already not young, and now they knew that they had been doing useless work all this time. It was impossible for them to leave this place in their lifetime.

Losing all hope, they accepted the result of death without too much struggle.

Now, everyone in the village was under control. After asking around, Ye Leng’an knew that no one in the village was wandering outside.

Because the most ceremonious festival in the village was about to arrive, and the new year was coming soon, the tribespeople who could still stay outside because they were less than twenty years old had all returned to the village.

Ye Leng’an nodded and felt that this was pretty good. At least she didn’t have to waste time waiting for those people to return. Otherwise, after the formation was activated, if the tribespeople outside could not return, what waited for them was violent deaths.

At night, Ye Leng’an and Huangfu Ruiling sat opposite each other. There was a box on the table between them. This box was found at the place where the formation was originally located today.

“This is what the evil cultivator left behind?” Ye Leng’an said, “I wonder if this person is still alive.”

The lifespan of cultivators was many times longer than that of ordinary people.

Of course, the stronger the cultivation, the longer the lifespan. According to Duo Ji, the time when the evil cultivator came to their village was during his grandfather’s era, which was at least more than a hundred years ago.

Moreover, when that evil cultivator appeared, he should be old enough.

The stronger the cultivation of a person, the better they could maintain their youthful appearance. Since the evil cultivator was said to be an old immortal, then this evil cultivator should not look young. His actual age must be much older than he looked. Now, another hundred years had passed, and she didn’t know if he was still alive.

“He is definitely still alive.” Huangfu Ruiling’s tone was filled with certainty. “Since he used such a method to cultivate, if he couldn’t even survive, then he wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble.”

Ye Leng’an thought that instead of being curious here, it was better to directly investigate. She reached out to open the wooden box to see what was inside. However, before her hand could touch the box, she was stopped by Huangfu Ruiling.

“Let me do it!” He reached out and pulled the box in front of himself, then opened it.

Under Ye Leng’an’s burning gaze, Huangfu Ruiling did not keep her in suspense and opened the wooden box directly.

Immediately, the two of them saw what was inside the box. It was a talisman.

“It’s a Substitute Talisman.” Ye Leng’an recognized it at a glance. “It looks like that evil cultivator used the Substitute Talisman to transfer the effects of this formation to himself. I wonder if we could rely on this Substitute Talisman to find traces of that evil cultivator.’

“Let me try.”

After that, Huangfu Ruiling lifted his fingertip and a stream of murderous aura appeared. The murderous aura seemed to have a consciousness as it directly wrapped around the Substitute Talisman.

Something unexpected happened in an instant. The Substitute Talisman suddenly ignited and burned into ashes In just two or three seconds, leaving no time for anyone to react.

Ye Leng’an wasn’t surprised when seeing the Substitute Talisman turn into ashes. “Looks like this evil cultivator is still very cautious! Even though he left behind a Substitute Talisman, he still tampered with it. As long as there was an aura from the outside world detecting, it would immediately self-ignite.”

“There will always be a chance to catch this person.” His tone was even. Obviously, he was not disappointed about this matter. “Although we can’t get any information from this Substitute Talisman, it must have a trace of the evil cultivator’s consciousness. Since it had spontaneously ignited, he should not be any better..”
