Chapter 139: The Shaman in the Castle
Li Yan closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “The moment I close my eyes, I feel like I’m fighting all kinds of ferocious beasts. Moreover, there’s an illusion that I’m being bitten.”
“What happens after you open your eyes?”
“My head hurts when I open my eyes.”
Chu Luo frowned when she heard this.
She stepped aside and pointed at the bed. “Come in and sit down first. I’ll take a look at you.”
Li Yan walked in and sat by the bed. Chu Luo stood behind him and touched his head for a while before saying, “A ball of black aura went to your head.”
After saying that, she gestured at him. “Take off your shoes and sit cross-legged on the bed. I’ll try to remove the black aura.”
Li Yan did as she said.
Chu Luo sat behind him and said to him, “Close your eyes.”
After Li Yan closed his eyes, Chu Luo tapped his sleeping acupoint and called out in her mind, “Phoenix.”
“Mistress.”
“See if you can get rid of the black aura in his brain.”
A red light flashed and entered Li Yan’s mind.
After a moment, the red light returned to Chu Luo’s wrist.
“Mistress, I don’t know magic. The black aura can’t be removed. I’ve already driven the black aura back to where he was injured.”
Chu Luo nodded and asked, “Try sensing where anyone who knows magic here can be located. I’ll go meet that person.”
After a while, Phoenix told her, “On the outskirts to the West.”
Chu Luo waited for Phoenix to finish speaking before asking it to teleport her there.
It was actually inside a mountain.
Chu Luo looked at the dark house and was a little surprised that it was an ancient castle that had obviously been abandoned.
The moonlight was dim tonight, and the mountains were filled with the cries of various animals. Along with the mountain breeze, it gave people a sinister and terrifying feeling.
Chu Luo stepped on the dead branches and leaves and immediately made cracking sounds.
Phoenix said to her, “There’s a shaman living here.”
Chu Luo asked, “Can you feel how powerful she is?”
Phoenix sensed the area and gave a rough estimate.
Chu Luo’s lips curled up. “Then all the more reason for me to meet her.”
Soon, Chu Luo arrived at the bottom of the steps outside the ancient castle.
The stairs were four to five meters wide and had about 20 steps. There were railings carved with birds and beasts on both sides. On the steps were eerie white bones, and it was unknown whether they were human or animal. On a skull stood a black cat.
The black cat’s eyes were glowing in the night as it stared straight at Chu Luo.
That was more than terrifying.
Chu Luo looked at the two sinister rays of light and muttered, “Is this cat being raised by the owner inside? Looks like it has a lot of hostility towards me.”
Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, the black cat let out a shrill and terrifying scream and pounced on her.
As the black cat flew over, Chu Luo tapped her toes and leaped over the cat’s body. At the same time, she quickly turned around. A red light flashed in her hand and the black cat froze where it was.
Meow~
“Noisy.”
Chu Luo walked in front of the black cat, squatted down, and patted its head.
The black cat stopped purring and even trembled.
“That’s more like it.” Chu Luo picked it up and threatened it in a flat tone, “I know you already have sentience and can understand me… Tell me, where is your master? If you don’t speak, I’ll turn you into a bald cat.”
After saying that, she pinched the cat on its head and tugged.
The black cat was furious. It realized that it could not move or even scream.
Its eyes immediately revealed a frightened look.
“Hehe, were you scared? Don’t be afraid. As long as you tell me where your master is, I’ll let you move and scream.”
The black cat weighed the pros and cons and looked towards the door.
Chu Luo carried it and walked towards the door.
When she reached the door, the heavy door suddenly opened automatically.
Chu Luo stepped over the threshold and entered.
There was a huge hall inside, and it was also very dark.
The door behind her closed with a bang. The only light from outside the door was blocked, and there were whining sounds coming from all directions.
Chu Luo snorted and waved a talisman, igniting a flame.
The flames instantly lit up her surroundings.
At this moment, an evil gust of wind blew over, obviously wanting to blow out the fire in her hand.
Unexpectedly, no matter how the evil wind blew, it couldn’t extinguish the flames on her talisman.
Chu Luo tapped her finger on the flame, and it instantly became a torch. With that, the entire hall was illuminated.
At this moment, an angry and displeased voice came from the front. “Who dares to barge into my castle?”
Chu Luo looked up and saw a woman in a black robe standing on the stairs.
Chu Luo said politely, “Sorry to interrupt you. My friend has been poisoned by a magic sword. As soon as you show me a way to remove the effects of the magic sword, I will leave immediately.”
“Hmph! An ignorant lass! How dare you come here to ask for something!”
After the woman finished speaking, a ray of magic attacked Chu Luo.
Chu Luo tapped her toes and quickly jumped to the side.
At this moment, the woman finally discovered the black cat in her arms.
She snapped, “How dare you hold my cat!”
“Wrong!” Chu Luo replied sternly. “I’m not holding your cat but kidnapping it. If you don’t tell me how to remove the effects of the magic sword, I will take your cat away.”
With that, her body blurred and she arrived at the entrance.
“How dare you!”
The woman instantly appeared in front of her and used her hand as a claw to snatch the cat.
Chu Luo wouldn’t give her that chance. Her body flashed.
The two of them started fighting.
During the fight, the woman used all kinds of magic upon Chu Luo.
Chu Luo had cast a barrier on herself when she entered. No matter what sort of magic was used on her, the barrier could block it.
The other party obviously lost her patience and directly summoned something that resembled a monster towards Chu Luo.
Chu Luo quickly retreated and shouted, “Phoenix.”
Golden light flashed. In the next moment, a phoenix bathed in flames appeared above Chu Luo.
The woman standing there looked at Phoenix and Chu Luo in surprise and asked loudly, “Who exactly are you?”
“Someone who wants to save a friend.”
“Hmph! Playing to the gallery.” The woman’s tone was filled with disdain. In the next second, she shouted at the black monster hiding in the dark, “Black Devil, kill this woman and that bird.”
“Bird? Phoenix, devour.”
A ball of flames suddenly flew towards the black monster.
Roar…
The moment the Black Devil was surrounded by the flames, he immediately let out a scream of pain.
“Ah…” The woman attacked Chu Luo crazily. “What did you do to my Black Devil?”
Chu Luo glanced at the ball that had become much smaller and asked, “Can’t you sense that my Phoenix is eating your Black Devil? I forgot to tell you that my Phoenix specializes in eating these things. Are you sure you still want to fight me?”
“No, no, no… I’m not fighting anymore. Let go of the Black Devil.”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Chu Luo called out to Phoenix.
Phoenix’s body swayed and she flew back from the Black Devil to Chu Luo’s head.
Golden light sprinkled on Chu Luo’s body. At that moment, Chu Luo’s entire body was emitting a pure light.
The woman looked at Chu Luo in disbelief.
Chu Luo curled her lips. “I forgot to tell you something. My Phoenix ate the black aura and it was purified immediately. Thank you for giving me so much pure magic power.”
Pfft!
The woman spat out a mouthful of blood.
She clutched her chest, feeling indignant but helpless. In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, “I have a magic library here. Go and find it yourself.”
After saying that, she disappeared with her Black Devil.
“Hey…” Chu Luo stomped her feet in dissatisfaction. “Where’s the magic library?”
What answered her was the sound of wind outside the door.
“Hmph! Do you think this will stump me?”
After saying that, she looked down at the obedient black cat in her arms and patted its head. “Tell me where the magic library is and I’ll let you go.”
With that, she removed the talisman from the black cat.
After the black cat could move, it reluctantly raised its paw and pointed in a certain direction.
Chu Luo carried it in the direction it pointed.
In a room downstairs.
Chu Luo walked into the library and looked at the bookshelves full of various books on the wall in front of her. Her eyes lit up.
She set the cat down on the ground and, ignoring the black cat that instantly darted out, started searching for the remedy in the nearest book.
What she didn’t know was that after the black cat darted out, it didn’t leave immediately. Instead, it stood outside the door and looked at her for a long while before going to that woman.
The woman was standing on the roof of the ancient castle. The black cat jumped onto her shoulder.
“What’s that person doing?”
The black cat rubbed against the woman’s neck.
“Mistress, that woman went to the library and is looking through books one by one.”
The woman sneered in disdain. “There are five thousand books in the library. If she wants to search, she can go ahead and do so. I don’t believe she can find the one book she wants.”
The black cat rubbed against her neck again.
“Mistress, aren’t you worried that that woman will find that magical book?”
“Hmph! Not everyone can see that magic book. She’s an outsider. Even if the magical book is placed in front of her, she won’t be able to see it.”
The black cat stopped asking questions and stared into the distance with the woman with an icy gaze.
Chu Luo read from the middle of the night until morning and from the next morning until the afternoon.
Just as she was halfway through reading all the books on the bookshelf, Phoenix suddenly alerted her in an excited voice in her mind, “Mistress, a book with magic suddenly appeared on the fifth row above your head.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she jumped and picked up the book with Phoenix’s guidance.
The book cover wasn’t special. Like the other books, it had “XX Magic Book” written on it.
However, the moment she opened it, Chu Luo was surrounded by powerful magic…
