I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

In the dungeon, Zhou Yin finally couldn't bear it anymore. Zhao Heng was tortured to extract a confession, so he collapsed and surrendered.

Under the surprised gaze of the eldest princess on the side, Zhao Heng gave her a vivid lesson on prison interrogation.

Zhao Heng did not directly ask about Hu Feinan's poisoning, but instead interrogated Zhou Yin from the evil deeds he had done when he was young.

And secretly use the spirit-taking technique to guide and monitor the other party.

Although the spirit-taking technique is mysterious, there are still strict requirements if you want to completely control the other party's mind and make the other party fall into an illusion.

There needs to be a huge gap in mental power between the caster and the person being cast, or the person being casted has weak willpower.

After all, Zhou Yin is a master of the Ascension Realm, and it is easy for mistakes to occur if he controls it forcefully.

But now that the other party's willpower has been broken down, Zhao Heng can quietly use the spirit-taking technique to guide him to tell the truth.

In the end, the effect was remarkable. When Zhou Yinlian himself was young, he once broke into the house of a pretty widow in the village at night and forcibly took possession of her.

And after becoming famous, he had sneaked into the palace and peeped at the princess taking a bath, all the dirty things were explained one by one.

But until he was asked about poisoning Hu Feinan, the other party said with a blank expression that except for meeting Hu Feinan once ten years ago, he and Hu Feinan had no contact at all, so it was impossible to poison him.

Under the control of spiritual photography, what the other party said is indeed credible, and this person can almost eliminate suspicion.

After finishing the interrogation of Zhou Yin, Zhao Heng decided to interrogate Sword Master and Ba Dao directly.

The strength of the two of them completely exceeded the level expected of warriors in the secular world, and they were the most suspicious.

After a while, Zhao Heng still used the same method as before, using torture that the two of them had never seen before, constantly applying pressure, and secretly using the spirit-catching technique to break down their psychological defenses.

Although both of them were warriors in the late Ascending Heaven Realm with extraordinary strength, they were affected by Zhao Heng's perverted torture techniques.

Coupled with the invisible mental torture, he finally collapsed and confessed everything.

The information shared by the two also surprised Zhao Heng and the eldest princess.

Because the identity of these two people is indeed not secular warriors. Like Hu Feinan, they are the seven righteous sects, hidden lines planted in the secular world.

Sword Saint Ye Qiu is a disciple of the Hunyuan Sword Sect, and Xiao Mobei, the tyrant swordsman, is a disciple of the Lieyan Sect.

The two people's duty is also to monitor the secular world and even the royal family.

This time they heard that Hu Feinan suddenly joined the royal family and caused a disturbance in the Lingyun Mountain sword debate. The two of them came here to find out the situation so that they could report it to the sect.

Both of them had sect tokens, and their identities were pure, so they could not be demonic warriors. The two sides made a mistake.

Although a little embarrassed, Zhao Heng did not let them go immediately.

In this situation now, we can only make mistakes. Until the real culprit is found, everyone is suspected.

So, he continued to interrogate the other three.

As expected, the suspect was among the three.

It was the mysterious figure "Ning Xiu" who wore a hat and black clothes and looked cool, but in fact had a real appearance, a sinister eyebrow and a lean figure.

Under Zhao Heng's torture to extract a confession and the suppression of his spiritual consciousness, even though this person tried his best to conceal it, he finally revealed his flaws and admitted that it was related to the poisonous poison in Hu Feinan's body.

At this time, in Cell No. 5, Zhao Heng reached out and grabbed Ning Xiu's neck, grinning sneer.

"How did you poison me? Tell the truth. Otherwise, I will let you have a taste of the criminal law I just told you, the taste of "riding a wooden horse."

Hearing this, Ning Xiu turned pale with fright, clamped his legs tightly, and his body couldn't stop trembling.

Zhao Heng took this opportunity to increase the pressure of the spirit-catching technique. Ning Xiu's fearful eyes showed a look of confusion, and he subconsciously said: "I...I didn't poison you!"

Zhao Heng frowned. Just as he was confused, he heard Ning Xiu continue: "I... I was also coerced?"

Zhao Heng's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean, tell the truth?"

There was fear in Ning Xiu's eyes as he recalled, "I have no enmity with you, Master Hu, so I will naturally not harm you.

More than a month ago, a man in black suddenly found my shelter, defeated and controlled me, and poisoned me, asking me to invite Daoist Hu out.

So I wrote to Daoist Hu and invited fellow Taoist Hu to meet in a small town outside the imperial capital. Over a drink, we exchanged views on the affairs of the world in recent years.

I didn't do anything. It was the man who fought with Daoist Hu and took the opportunity to poison me.

I knew that this person would definitely not let me go after this, so while they were fighting, I stole the antidote and escaped first.

Mr. Hu, you’re fine anyway, so please spare me. I don’t want to ride a wooden horse, and I don’t want the backyard to blossom, Mr. Hu..."

Ning Xiu begged endlessly, almost crying.

Zhao Heng and the eldest princess looked at each other and frowned slightly.

As Zhao Heng expected, although there was no real culprit among the seven masters, there were accomplices from demonic warriors.

Ning Xiu's strength is low, and under the control of the spirit-catching technique, it is almost impossible to lie.

Zhao Heng then asked: "Do you know the identity of the man in black?"

Ning Xiu shook his head decisively: "I don't know!"

Zhao Heng frowned, "Then did he leave any clues?"

Ning Xiu thought hard, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Yes, the embroidered handkerchief that man used to wrap the antidote is of good quality. It's still on me, in the purse around my waist."

Zhao Heng's heart moved, and he immediately groped in the purse on Ning Xiu's waist and found the embroidered handkerchief.

This is an elegant and clean white embroidered handkerchief one foot long and wide. It has no decorations, but its texture is soft and silky. It looks like an extremely rare fabric.

“This is the only item I got from him, other clues, I really don’t know!

Hu Daxia, just spare me. "

Ignoring Ning Xiu's pleading, Zhao Heng and the eldest princess walked out of the cell and came to the quiet room.

The two of them looked at the embroidered handkerchief. Zhao Heng's eyes were slightly blank and he couldn't see any clues.

The eldest princess on the side took the embroidered handkerchief, observed it carefully, and checked the material of the embroidered handkerchief with her hands. Suddenly her eyes focused and she spoke in a deep voice.

"I know the origin of this embroidered handkerchief."

Zhao Heng looked at the other party in surprise.

The eldest princess pondered: "Two years ago, a small country on the southern border presented a roll of cloth made of sky silk to the imperial palace.

Because it is expensive and extremely rare, my father ordered me to cut it and give it to the concubines of the third rank or above in the palace, as well as several princesses and close attendants. I also have a piece of cloth like this in my palace.

This is a royal tribute, and ordinary people will never have access to it, and they dare not use it casually. "

Hearing this, Zhao Heng's eyes narrowed slightly.

"So, the murderer comes from... the palace!"

The expressions of both of them changed drastically, and they felt like they were tracking down the real culprit and found their "home base", sending shivers down their spines.

"To be able to fight against Hu Feinan and poison him, this person must be a master in the Heaven Realm!" Zhao Heng concluded again.

The eldest princess's face was extremely solemn.

"You mean, that demonic warrior is one of the three masters of the Heaven Realm in the palace!"

As soon as these words came out, the two of them became more and more frightened. Their purpose was to protect the royal family from the vicious hands of the evil warriors.

Now it was discovered that the other party was actually hiding in the imperial city, even beside the emperor and empress. It was terrifying to think about it.

"No, we have to return to the imperial city as soon as possible!" The two said in unison.

"What about the six masters?" the eldest princess asked again.

Zhao Heng thought for a moment and said: "Detain them here first to avoid leaking the news and alerting the snake."

The two reached an agreement, and that night, the eldest princess ordered the Yulin Guards to continue guarding Lingyun Mountain.

Zhao Heng and Princess Zhan returned to the imperial capital overnight.

After returning to the imperial capital, the two men breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no abnormality in the palace.

Not long after, in a dark corner of the palace, the two secretly discussed their next action goals.

Through the clues obtained from the sword discussion at Lingyun Mountain, the two of them could basically identify the real culprit as one of the three masters of the Ascension Realm in the palace.

But how to determine their identity requires some means.

The eldest princess said: "There are three masters in the palace who are in the Heaven Realm, namely Liu Xian, the chief internal officer, Chen Zhong, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, and Taoist Qingqiu who has been refining elixirs for his father all year round.

They are all the most trusted people by my father and have always stayed by his side. We want to test him, but it is not easy. I am familiar with the chief chamberlain, so I recently took the opportunity to test him.

As for the other two, they need to find another way. "

Zhao Heng nodded, and the two immediately agreed to go back and think about ways to test.

Zhao Heng returned to his mansion with a heavy heart, thinking about the ins and outs of the whole thing.

He never expected that when he traced the demonic warriors, he would eventually lead to the palace.

Fortunately, the other party had not taken any action yet, and neither the Queen nor Emperor Haoyuan were harmed.

However, the other party must have ulterior secrets lurking in the palace, and he might start a killing spree one day.

This person must be found before danger occurs.

Zhao Heng's identity made it inconvenient for him to have direct contact with these three people, otherwise it would easily arouse suspicion.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Heng suddenly thought of an important piece of information.

During the Golden Autumn Night Banquet before, he had discovered a trace of a demonic warrior in Qiuyue Oiran.

That breath was not the same as the one that attacked the East Palace at night and poisoned the demon warrior Hu Feinan, but the two might have some connection.

Now we have another clue. The murderer is related to the inside of the palace. It may be possible to extend from it to explore important information.

With this in mind, Zhao Heng rushed to Jinfeng Pavilion overnight...
