Cave Truth Technique is the advanced spell of Spirit Eye Technique. Wang Chen has already upgraded this Purple Mansion-grade skill to the Grandmaster level level.

His perception silently expanded in all directions, covering all the surrounding villagers.

Although Shangyang Village is located in a remote location, the proportion of monks among the villagers in this village is quite high.

However, their cultivation levels are generally very low, mostly below fourth layer of Qi Condensation.

Wang Chen is confident that as long as these villagers are contaminated with evil spirits, they will definitely not be able to escape their own insights!

The higher the Evil Cultivator's cultivation level, the easier it is for the evil power in his body to get out of control. Even if he can still maintain his sanity, it will overflow and spread.

Therefore, if the villagers here have had contact with the target, they will definitely be contaminated with some evil spirits.

However, what disappointed Wang Chen was that he observed for a moment and found nothing.

Could it be that Dongming Residence's information is inaccurate?

Wang Chen First rule out this possibility - this is information that cost 100,000 spiritual stones!

The information is accurate, so it is possible that Zhou Senzhi is hiding very deep and has not had direct contact with the villagers here recently.

Or the villagers I had contact with are not here.

There is another possibility that this Evil Cultivator masters some kind of secret method of aura.

But no matter what the reason is, it brings a lot of trouble to Wang Chen.

Evil Cultivator Unlike demonic cultivators, demonic cultivators can hide in the wilderness and deep mountains to cultivate. As long as there are enough resources, it is not a problem to survive for several years or more.

And Evil Cultivator has an instinctive and strong desire for "popularity". The more people around him, the better it is for cultivation.

Once out of the human environment, they are like fish out of water and will quickly die from lack of oxygen!

However, large cities usually have magic circles or suppression devices to exorcise evil spirits. Low-level Evil Cultivator cannot survive and can only hide in villages and towns.

The trouble with Wang Chen is that even if he can confirm that Zhou Senzhi is in Shangyang Village, he cannot search house by house.

He had to quietly lock his target and then hit it with one strike.

Otherwise the mission will easily fail!

Wang Chen was thinking while trading with the villagers, and there was no mistake in using both distractions.

At this moment, he suddenly felt like he was being watched.

Wang Chen glanced calmly and found that a hundred paces away to the left, several burly village idlers were looking at him with their arms folded.

One of them had thatch in his mouth and his eyes flashed with a ruffian look on his face.

Wang Chen is a little disappointed.

These guys don't look like Evil Cultivator, they are probably the gangsters from Shangyang Village.

The same rice feeds all kinds of people. No matter how many hard-working and down-to-earth people there are in a village, there will always be a few lazy and vain ones.

He didn't care and exchanged the last piece of Osmanthus Rice Candy to a villager.

"There's no more sweet-scented osmanthus candy."

Wang Chen said with a smile, "All have been replaced."

In fact, he still has a lot hidden in his storage bag, but he has just replaced the three boards, and taking them out again is a bit inconsistent with the character of a traveling merchant.

Travel merchants do small business and usually do not stock large quantities of goods.

As soon as he finished speaking, the child who had just arrived with a herb in his hand burst into tears.

Just one step too late, the sweet and delicious rice candy is gone!

Seeing his companions happily eating sweets, the sadness in his heart was like a river, and he cried like a 1.4-meter-old child.

Wang Chen sweated a lot and said quickly, "Don't cry, I will come back in a few days, so I will leave you a copy."

Only then did the other party stop being sad. "Really?"

"Of course it's true!"

Wang Chen vowed. "You keep the things first, and I promise to exchange them with you when the time comes."

The child sobbed and nodded. "Okay."

Seeing that things were almost exchanged, Wang Chen retreated decisively.

As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. There is still plenty of time left for Wang Chen, and he doesn't want to rush it.

When leaving, Wang Chen also accepted many villagers' entrustments.

This is also one of the businesses of traveling merchants.

After leaving Shangyang Village, Wang Chen followed the map to a small town two hundred miles away.

He wandered around the city and stayed for one night, then left the next day for another city farther away.

After four days, Wang Chen came to Shangyang Village again.

This time many villagers already knew him.

Wang Chen fulfilled his promise and delivered some of the items entrusted by the villagers to purchase first.

Of course, he didn't forget to give the child rice candy.

There were more villagers coming to exchange things this time, and many of them were new to them last time.

However, Wang Chen used Cave Truth Technique, and no one was found to have been in contact with Evil Cultivator!

This is a bit troublesome.

If he couldn't find the target, he would have no choice but to use the last resort to sneak into the village at night to inspect each house.

With Wang Chen's current cultivation strength, plus Grandmaster level's Spirit Concealment Technique, the possibility of being discovered is still very low.

But just observing outside may not be able to find the target. If Evil Cultivator is hiding in the underground secret room, his Cave Truth Technique will not be able to penetrate the thick soil no matter how strong it is.

Wang Chen After much deliberation, I can only take one step at a time.

The exchange was almost done, so he withdrew the stall again and left.

The identity of traveling merchant, Wang Chen, is temporarily unavailable. The time interval between coming back is too short and it is easy to make people suspicious.

But what Wang Chen didn't expect was that he was stopped on the road just as he was returning from Shangyang Village.

"My friend, do you understand the rules of business?"

The people blocking Wang Chen's path were surprisingly the same idle men he had met when he first came to the village.

The leading village man had a fierce look on his back and a fierce look on his face, staring at Wang Chen like a wolf staring at a lamb.

The three men standing behind him dispersed in a tacit understanding, assuming a surrounding posture.

These people are all Qi Refining's third and fourth level cultivation, and with sixth layer of Qi Condensation's leading brother, it is quite courageous to rob Wang Chen, the "seventh level of Qi Condensation" traveling merchant.

Obviously this isn't the first time he's done something like this!

Wang Chen smiled, "What are the rules?"

A hint of greed flashed in the eyes of the burly man. "Of course it's our Shangyang Village rule. We let you go last time, but this time you have to keep it to pay for your travel expenses."

He slapped Wang Chen in the face. "Fifty spirit stones, I will let you go today!"

Fifty spirit stones are not much.

But Wang Chen didn't want to give any of it. "But I don't want to let you go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chen shot Body Immobilization Technique in the past.

The four villagers suddenly felt as if they had been struck by lightning, and their bodies became stiff and unable to move.

The next moment, they all fainted.

Wang Chen shook his hands and pulled out a scroll, instantly unfolding a long painting and including all these villagers.

It is Grand Mystic Mirage Dragon True Form Diagram!

This treasure map can contain living creatures, and Big Green Donkey has been contained in it.

It also takes in people.

Wang Chen moved extremely fast. The moment he put the person away, a Shrink Ground into Inch flew dozens of steps away.

Disappeared without a trace in an instant!
