Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 931 - 469: Summoning Ritual

"What method?" Xia Luyao and the others immediately perked up.

"Summoning." Lin Beichen slowly uttered the two words.

"Summoning?" Wild Ox widened his eyes, full of surprise. The others also looked astonished. They only knew Lin Beichen was good at divination and drawing talismans, but didn't expect he could do this too.

Lin Beichen nodded in confirmation: "Yes, summoning. Since the police station has a few dead drug lords, we can use them to summon."

"But, they're all dead." Wild Ox asked in confusion.

"Nonsense, what would be the point of summoning if they were alive?" Lin Beichen said helplessly.

Though Xia Luyao was surprised by Lin Beichen's proposal, seeing his confident demeanor, he chose to trust him. After all, unbelievable things often happened around Lin Beichen.

The people from the police station showed expressions of shock upon hearing their conversation.

"Summoning? You're not joking, are you?" the head of the police station, Qin Yecheng, asked in doubt.

Xia Luyao replied earnestly, "Chief Qin, we are not joking. The situation is urgent, and this is the only lead."

Qin Yecheng looked displeased, "This is capturing drug lords, not child's play!"

"I believe in Lin Beichen," Xia Luyao said firmly, "If anything goes wrong, I'll take full responsibility."

Qin Yecheng was too angry to speak and finally gritted his teeth, "Alright, I'll see how you handle this!"

Seeing Xia Luyao defending him, Lin Beichen felt a warmth in his heart and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."

Then, he turned to Qin Yecheng and said, "Chief Qin, please take me to see those dead drug lords, I need something from them for the summoning."

Though Qin Yecheng was dissatisfied, he still took them to the morgue. Lin Beichen followed behind him calmly, already having a plan in mind.

Lin Beichen stepped into the room where the drug lord's bodies were kept, gently lifted the white cloth covering the deceased's faces, and scanned their features.

He pointed to the flat-headed drug lord on the far left, and said to the police staff, "Help me take off his shirt."

The officers exchanged glances, obviously puzzled by this request.

"Take off his shirt? Why?" a young officer asked in confusion.

Lin Beichen frowned slightly, feeling the question was a bit odd, "Do as I say, don't ask so much."

Though hesitant, the officers still followed his request, taking off the drug lord's shirt and handing it to Lin Beichen.

Wild Ox curiously looked at the shirt in Lin Beichen's hand, asking, "What do you need the shirt for?"

"Summoning." Lin Beichen replied succinctly.

Wild Ox widened his eyes, "Really? Can you summon with just a shirt?"

Lin Beichen shook his head, "Of course not, I need to prepare some other things."

He turned to the officers and listed the needed items in detail: a table, incense burner, incense candles, cinnabar, white cloth, and a section of bamboo with leaves, emphasizing that they had to be ready by midnight.

Though puzzled, the officers still went to prepare as instructed.

After leaving the morgue, the members of the Venomous Snake Special Team surrounded Lin Beichen, curious to ask about his summoning plan.

Lin Beichen merely smiled mysteriously, "You'll find out when it's time."

When asked about what to do next, he casually said, "Sleep."

The team members looked surprised, but Lin Beichen explained that the summoning ritual had to be conducted at midnight, and getting enough rest now was most important.

At midnight, everyone gathered on an open ground outside the police station. The items Lin Beichen needed were all prepared. He stood by the table and began drawing something on the white cloth with cinnabar.

The police staff murmured among themselves, expressing doubt and disdain toward Lin Beichen's actions. Chief Qin also held a mindset of watching him make a fool of himself.

However, Lin Beichen was entirely focused on his summoning ritual, ignoring the surrounding murmurs. He knew full well that this seemingly absurd ritual might be the key to finding the drug lords' hideout.

Lin Beichen carefully finished the last stroke with cinnabar on the white cloth and nodded in satisfaction at his work. Then, he securely tied a corner of the cloth to a green bamboo stalk, with the bamboo leaves gently swaying in the night breeze. He walked to the specially erected table facing north and deeply inserted the bamboo stalk into the soil in front of the table.

Returning to the table, Lin Beichen picked up the drug lord's shirt again, using cinnabar as ink and his fingers as a brush, and carefully drew talismans on the clothing. After finishing, he gently placed the clothing down and looked up, asking, "Instructor Xia, what time is it now?" Xia Luyao glanced at his watch and replied, "There's one more minute until midnight." Lin Beichen nodded and gestured for Xia Luyao to remind him at midnight.

When the clock struck twelve, Xia Luyao immediately informed Lin Beichen. Lin Beichen quickly pinched a piece of talisman paper, quietly recited a spell, and suddenly tossed the talisman paper into the basin, which ignited fiercely upon contact with the clothing. He performed a series of hand seals and chanted, "Jia Zhen Yi Li Bing Xin Kun, Ding Qian Wu Kan Ji Xun Men, Yin Shen Si Hai Return Home, I command the soul to return quickly!"

As the chant ended, a gale rose abruptly, and the rustling leaves sounded like a group of demons dancing. The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the night was as dark as ink. The only streetlight flickered intermittently, adding a touch of eerie atmosphere. What was even more astonishing was that the piece of white cloth with cinnabar talismans, in the northwest wind, drifted straight toward the north.

The surrounding officers whispered among themselves, their faces filled with fear. Even Qin Yecheng, a staunch atheist, felt a chill in his heart at this moment. Lin Beichen, with eyes closed, hands clasped in front of his chest, shouted loudly three times, "Soul, come quickly! Come quickly! Come quickly!"
