Chapter 5495Hu Mazi caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye and saw a black token hanging around Scarface’s waist. The word “evil” was engraved on the token, which was exactly the same as the token of the Evil Temple he had seen before.His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, knowing that his wait had finally paid off. Just For original chapters go to findnovel.netthen, the conversation between two monks at the next table drifted into Hu Mazi’s ears.“Have you heard? The people in the temple have been holding lectures recently, and many monks have gone to listen. However, those monks who listened to the lectures seemed to have lost their souls.”A monk said in a low voice.“Shh! Keep your voice down! Do we think we can discuss the affairs of the temple? Last time, a casual cultivator was too talkative and was slapped a few times by the people in the temple!”Another monk reminded in horror.“What are you afraid of? I heard the people from the Temple have been getting close to the Evil Temple lately,”the monk said, then leaned in and whispered in the other’s ear. “It seems the Evil Temple is looking for a ‘Soul Urn,’ they say, capable of holding millions of souls. It seems the Temple has it.”Hu Mazi listened carefully, his heart sinking.The words “Soul Urn,” “Millions of Souls” struck him like a hammer.Could this be connected to the disappearance of the souls of the Hu clan members he had come to investigate?He was about to listen more closely when Scarface glanced at the next table. The two monks immediately shut up, hurriedly paid their bill, and left the teahouse. Scarface finished his drink and left with his two men.Hu Mazi had a flash of inspiration, realizing this was a good opportunity to follow them and uncover the truth.noveldramaHe quietly followed, activating his cloaking charm to conceal his presence.Following them, Hu Mazi passed through narrow alleys filled with a foul odor, their walls covered in black vines like tentacles of darkness.Finally, they stopped before an abandoned altar.Black runes covered the altar, gleaming with an eerie light, as if concealing endless secrets. In the center of the altar sat a half-man-high clay pot. From within, a shrill, soul-sounding wail emanated faintly ,a sound like a wail from hell that sent a chill down Hu Mazi’s spine.“Is everything ready?”a monk in a white robe slowly emerged from behind the altar. The golden character “神” (God) was embroidered on the corner of his robe. He was indeed a member of the temple!Scarface nodded and pulled a storage bag from his bosom. “This contains 500,000 immortal stones. I expect a large quantity will be delivered from the lower realms soon. When will the ‘Soul Urn’ be given to us?”The white-robed monk sneered, his laughter filled with disdain and mockery. “What’s the rush? Once our temple master has filled the Soul Urn for you, we’ll naturally give it to your Evil Path Temple. You’ll cultivate with your spirits, and we’ll cultivate with the immortal stones. We’ll have nothing to do with each other.”“Your temple is faster at collecting souls than we are. We need to collect them in places where there’s fighting, but you can trick those monks into opening altars and then simply take their souls.”Hu Mazi’s hands clenched white at these words.The temple’s people could actually do such a vile thing. After all, without souls, monks can no longer cultivate and improve their cultivation. They’re practically dead.Just as Hu Mazi was about to approach the clay pot on the altar to examine it, he was suddenly spotted.The cloaking charm failed, and his aura was instantly exposed.“Who?”The white-robed monk turned around abruptly, his eyes as sharp as a sword. He unsheathed his sword, and a golden sword light slashed towards Hu Mazi!Hu Mazi quickly activated the cloaking charm again and dodged the sword light.But even so, the sword energy still cut a hole in the corner of his robe.The sword energy seemed to carry a scorching power, causing his skin to sting.
