Lin Luo's words made the Hanged Ghost hesitate for a moment, but he told him anyway.
"The Man-Faced Tree controls the entrances and exits of Sunset Village. Whenever the living sacrifice comes around, the villagers have to offer tribute. Anyone who dares resist, human or ghost, will have their soul scattered."
The Hanged Ghost's words brought no surprise to Lin Luo's face.
During his fight with the Man-Faced Tree earlier, Lin Luo had more or less confirmed that it was stronger than either the Farmer or the Wretched Ghost.
To escape, he had to destroy the Man-Faced Tree.
And Lin Luo was already running out of time.
If he continued to remain passive, he would probably meet a violent end on the day of the living sacrifice.
"Does the Man-Faced Tree have any weaknesses?"
Lin Luo asked casually, but the Hanged Ghost's answer caught him by surprise.
"The Man-Faced Tree fears fire. If you can assemble the Hell Torch, you might be able to burn it to death!"
This answer made Lin Luo frown.
The Hell Torch was a soul-burying tier Ghost Artifact, even rarer than high-tier Ghost Artifacts.
Lin Luo had managed to wound the Man-Faced Tree with the Blood Rope, a high-tier Ghost Artifact, but obtaining the Hell Torch seemed like a pipe dream.
Although he found it troublesome, Lin Luo had no intention of giving up. He continued, "How much do you know about the clues to the Hell Torch?"
"The Hell Torch is formed by combining three high-tier Ghost Artifacts: Murphy's Head, Baal's Ghost Eyes, and the Dark Horn. The village chief is Murphy."
Hearing this, Lin Luo grew inwardly wary. Village Chief Murphy was no less powerful than the Farmer. Taking Murphy's head would probably be incredibly difficult.
He might end up being killed instead
