"Decades ago, three vicious corpses broke free from their coffins, causing a great number of casualties."

"Later on, it was a Maoshan Daoist named Lin who passed by and used three exclusive Maoshan Profound Sun Corpse Suppression Talismans to seal them back into their coffins!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Yan Tong mention the Profound Sun Corpse Suppression Talisman, Lin Heng's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

Because, coincidentally, this talisman was recorded in the complete Maoshan compendium, ranking high at the Seventh Grade!

"Didn't that Maoshan senior find a way to deal with the three vicious corpses after suppressing them?" Lin Heng was a bit curious.

Yan Tong showed a touch of sorrow and said, "No."

"According to records, that Daoist was already severely injured at the time, and after using all his strength to suppress the three vicious corpses, he succumbed from exhaustion."

"Before his death, he instructed the Guardian of the Spirit Suppression Bureau at that time to send someone to Maoshan to request a High-Functioning Master with cultivation above Great Success in Profound Communication to handle it."

"Unfortunately, by the time the Spirit Suppression Bureau sent someone to Maoshan, Maoshan had already closed its gates."

"As a result, the problem of the three vicious corpses has been left unresolved to this day..."

Yan Tong sighed.

Lin Heng couldn't help but frown, "Doesn't your Spirit Suppression Bureau have a presence across the entire country? Isn't there anyone above Great Success in Profound Communication to solve it? Must it be a Maoshan Daoist?"

Yan Tong responded with a helpless expression, "The Spirit Suppression Bureau certainly has strong individuals, but when it comes to dealing with zombies, throughout history, only Maoshan's methods are most effective in the Dragon Country."

"There was a Divine Enlightenment Grandmaster at the headquarters before, but even he was powerless."

"And during that era, the turbulence had just ended, remnants of evil were rampant, and the Spirit Suppression Bureau everywhere was understaffed."

"So this matter was left unsettled..."

Lin Heng nodded upon hearing this, "I see."

Indeed, as Yan Tong said, the Daoist Sect has been vanquishing demons since ancient times.

In terms of experience in dealing with demons, no cultivation school can match Daoism, even Buddhism falls short.

When it comes to handling zombies, Maoshan's methods are particularly effective.

A Divine Enlightenment Grandmaster could not resolve it, but perhaps a High-Functioning Maoshan Master from the Profound Communication Realm could handle it easily.

This does not imply that a Grandmaster is weaker than a Maoshan Daoist in the Profound Communication Realm.

It's just that every profession has its specialization.

For example, the cultivators at the Changbai Mountain Sword Pool are not very good at dealing with demons and monsters, but they are nearly unbeatable in combat with fellow cultivators of the same realm.

This difference is due to the different main focus of each dharma gate.

"So, is this the reason why your Spirit Suppression Bureau's guardians can't handle other demons?" Lin Heng asked.

"That's right."

Yan Tong nodded, and the wind generated from their rapid travel made her hair a bit messy.

"More than a year ago, supervisors discovered that the talisman's spell gradually faded with each passing day."

"The guardian realized that the talisman's spiritual energy was about to dissipate."

"To maintain the effect of the talisman, the Spirit Suppression Bureau moved its base to the edge of Jingshui Lake."

"The guardian personally watched over it and infused the talisman with spiritual power."

"Yet, ultimately, it did not prevent the talisman's effect from dissipating."

"At dawn today, the three vicious corpses suddenly broke free from their coffins, causing heavy casualties to the Spirit Suppression Bureau. I managed to rush to you, protected by the guardian."

Saying this, Yan Tong's eyes teared up slightly, and misty sorrow floated in her beautiful eyes.

Lin Heng felt a delayed realization.

"So, the base of the Spirit Suppression Bureau was built by Jingshui Lake."

"No wonder that place hasn't been used for real estate development over the years."

"Turns out it's an ominous place..."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Heng curiously asked, "What level are those three vicious corpses?"

Yan Tong didn't hide it, "According to the records, when they were sealed, both the Little King Corpse and the Consort Corpse had already reached the Middle Stage of Profound Communication."

"The King Corpse, it's said, was just a step away from the Divine Enlightenment Grandmaster Realm!"

"After decades of suppression, their strength has reduced a lot, but it's confirmed that they are still within the Profound Communication Realm..."

Saying this, Yan Tong showed a trace of guilt.

"Actually, the guardian didn't allow me to find you because it's too dangerous, but I... I want to save them."

"Besides you, I don't know anyone in Chang City who has this capability..."

She choked up a little and suddenly stopped, looking at Lin Heng seriously:

"I'm sorry. I admit I was being selfish."

"If you, Master Observatory, don't want to go, feel free to tell me, it's okay."

Hearing this, Lin Heng smiled lightly.

"Alright, three zombies in the Profound Communication Realm are not enough to make this poor Daoist retreat."

"Let's hurry. Maybe we can still save some people."

What a joke.

Three zombies in the Profound Communication Realm, what a huge experience bundle is that?

Retreat?

Impossible to retreat!

Not to mention the Golden Light Spell and the newly acquired Heaven-Reaching Talisman, even if relying solely on the Five Thunders Righteous Method, Lin Heng has full confidence to confront and battle demons across a major realm!

Does the innate advantage of a Daoist over demons and monsters seem like bragging?

If the opponent were a Divine Enlightenment Grandmaster level, Lin Heng would indeed admit defeat and turn back immediately.

But if they are merely within the Profound Communication Realm.

Sorry!

This poor Daoist with Innate Seventh Layer has nothing to fear!

Seeing the resolute back of the Daoist, Yan Tong couldn't help but smile, tears flowing even as she laughed.

Indeed.

She had not misjudged this Master Observatory!

He is a Daoist truly concerned for the common people!

A Daoist who inspires sincere reverence and the desire to follow!

In Yan Tong's tear-reddened beautiful eyes, an unusual sense of awe arose.

And suddenly, a prompt echoed in Lin Heng's mind.

[You have gained a Diehard Level Believer, Reputation Value +10,000]!

???

What's happening?

Lin Heng was utterly baffled.

...

Jingshui Lake.

The crowds within a three-mile radius had already been evacuated, and the evacuation continued outward.

The citizens had no clue what was happening, only feeling that the sky over Jingshui Lake inexplicably darkened.

From time to time, accompanied by the roar of some unknown beast?

This made everyone uneasy.

After all, in the past half year, strange incidents had occurred one after another across different regions.

And in the past month, the authorities seemed to have loosened control, allowing information about demons to appear online continuously.

The local forum in Chang City had been flooded recently with videos of the Daoist Master of Qingfeng Temple subduing demons.

Now, the public gradually believed in the existence of supernatural things.

At this time, the emergency evacuation and that strange roar made the public speculate about a truth!

At this moment, Lin Heng, rushing rapidly, was seen by the evacuated crowd on the street.

Immediately, someone recognized him.

"Look quickly, it's the person from the video, the Daoist from Qingfeng Temple!"

"Oh my god, what kind of speed is that? Could he really be a living immortal?"

"By the way, he seems to be heading towards Jingshui Lake, what's happening over there?"

"Could it really be a demon causing chaos?"

Many evacuated citizens were now in shock.
