"Bring your men, tear down this temple, dig three feet into the ground and see what's beneath."

Xiao Mu turned around and commanded.

Lei Shun, who didn't escape far, heard this and quickly stepped forward, asking in surprise, "Mr Xiao, do we really need to dismantle it? The curse ghost is dead."

He couldn't understand, with the curse ghost dead, why would there be a need to tear down the temple. And if dismantling the temple could be justified, why would they need to dig three feet into the ground?

"Demolish!"

Xiao Mu's response was plain but filled with unwavering determination.

With no choice left, Lei Shun complied and beckoned for Chen Rui and the others to return.

"The aura of death on you hasn't dissipated."

After giving a glance to Chen Rui and the others, Xiao Mu suddenly brought out a Mutated Exorcism Charm and launched it with an empty hand.

The Mutated Exorcism Charm turned into a golden light. The light entered the bodies of Chen Rui and the others.

In an instant, Chen Rui and the rest felt as if they were released from some form of bondage.

It wasn't until then that the Deathly Black Qi on their bodies completely vanished.

Just now, they only felt it had disappeared, but in reality, it hadn't. The black gas had already entered their bodies, combined with their flesh, and wouldn't dissipate unless removed by a spell.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao!"

Chen Rui and the others were overjoyed, and quickly thanked Xiao Mu.

Just now, even though Xiao Mu had used Dao Method Spiritual Energy to stop the spread of the black gas and death, they could still feel the pressure brought by the black gas. It felt like it could strike at any time.

It wasn't until now that the pressure was completely gone, and the people knew they were safe.

"Mr. Xiao commanded us to continue demolishing the temple and dig three feet into the ground to see what's below."

Lei Shun conveyed to Chen Rui and the others.

As for dismantling the temple, Chen Rui, who had suffered greatly from it, was obviously more eager than Lei Shun. He said: "Demolish it. This damn temple should have been torn down long ago."

He always felt there was something evil about this broken temple. Even though the curse ghost was dead, who knew if it would give rise to other strange things if it wasn't torn down.

He led the people to start the demolition. Now that the black gas was gone, the temple became easier to demolish.

In the blink of an eye, they knocked down the walls, followed by the deity figures furnished on the altar table.

"Found it!"

As soon as the deity figure was destroyed, Chen Rui found something and excitedly shouted out.

The next moment, he picked up something from the altar table and held it high. It was the Earth Seal of March City.

"It's the Earth Seal, give it to me."

Lei Shun, delighted by the recovery of the Earth Seal, asked Chen Rui to hand it back.

Unfortunately, the master of the Earth Seal, Zhang Yang, was already dead. Even if the Earth Seal was retrieved, Zhang Yang couldn't be saved. A new master must be chosen.

Chen Rui threw the Earth Seal to Lei Shun, then proceeded with the ongoing demolition.

After the temple was torn down, they picked up their iron shovels and started digging.

All of them were mutated beings and were extremely fast at digging. Not long after, they suddenly hit on something.

With a thud, it was as if something was released.

A red light shot out from the ground, rapidly spreading, bringing with it an intense plague aura. Chen Rui and the others were too close and collapsed one by one in an instant.

"Wha... What..."

Lei Shun was so surprised that he didn't even know what to say.

Even Xiao Mu couldn't help but change his expression, taking steps forward while conjuring the Suppressing Evil Talisman.

The Suppressing Evil Talisman was cast and transformed into a glistening gold mini tower.

The mini tower directly suppressed the red light downwards.

As the tower descended, the red light bit by bit was suppressed.

However, this red light was incredibly strong. The Suppressing Evil Talisman couldn't fully suppress it. It was only able to push it down part of the way before it stopped.

Xiao Mu's expression grew serious. He continuously cast Suppressing Evil Talismans, as many as five in a row.

Five Suppressing Evil Talismans finally managed to suppress the red light.

After that, he came forward to examine it closely.

"Mr. Xiao."

Lei Shun, looking nervous as he wanted to approach but dared not to.

Li Jingyang had already retreated early on, not daring to come closer despite not knowing what had happened. He didn't even have the urge to investigate.

Xiao Mu cast an Exorcism Charm at Chen Rui and the others.

A golden light entered their bodies, but Chen Rui and the others didn't regain consciousness immediately.

"Have someone carry them away."

Xiao Mu casually commanded Lei Shun.

"Thi...Okay."

Lei Shun hesitated for a moment before turning to negotiate with Li Jingyang.

Li Jingyang was even more hesitant than Lei Shun. It wasn't until Lei Shun spent a long time persuading him, making some promises, that he finally sent some men to carry Chen Rui and the others away.

Luckily, the red light had been suppressed by Xiao Mu, and the people who came to carry them away weren't harmed.

Meanwhile, Xiao Mu had already leaped down, jumping into the tunnel Chen Rui and the others had dug to investigate.

The tunnel was not deep. Xiao Mu gently brushed away the mud where the red light was emerging.

The next moment, he couldn't help but gasp.

Beneath the mud was a finger.

However, this finger obviously didn't belong to a human. It was many times larger than a human's finger, even as large as a human's forearm.

The finger was covered in black hair, giving it a peculiar and eerie feeling.

Needless to say, this finger was also continually releasing a red light filled with a plague aura. Only thanks to Xiao Mu's Suppressing Evil Talismans was it contained and prevented from spreading.

Whose finger could this be?

Xiao Mu's face drastically changed, but he couldn't figure it out.

Though, even by guessing, he could tell that the owner of this finger must have been an incredibly powerful being. If the person was still alive, Xiao Mu could easily be killed by just this finger.
