Chapter 595: Can’t End the Romance (Additional Update)
If one easily mobilizes spiritual power or struggles hard, this thing will tighten rapidly and can strangle the person to death.
Huang Shiren turned to look at Murong Ji, waiting for his master to give him instructions. When he was captured, this little girl had given him a lot of trouble.
"There's no need for her to do that. With that brain, she can't run far." Murong Ji said calmly.
The cold and ruthless attack instantly stunned Wang Quanzui. He was a little unconvinced and wanted to explain himself, but suddenly he remembered that his behavior seemed to be really out of his mind...
There are two types of people who are easiest to manipulate in this world: one is a self-righteous fool, and the other is a fool who cannot distinguish between friend and foe.
They are all notoriously bad teammates.
Huang Shiren glanced at everyone, and finally looked at Murong Ji's back as he walked down the mountain. He smiled and said to Wang Quanzui, "The master once said that we are not afraid of god-like opponents, but we are afraid of teammates who are like pigs."
Wang Quanzui: “…”
Seeing Huang Shiren's smug look, he retorted: "You are the stupid teammate! I am just being sensible! Otherwise, I would just lie there like them!"
Huang Shiren took out a cart from the space in his collar, which was used to exchange resources with the Yang family in the past.
He dragged several people into the car, then drove down the mountain without paying any attention to Wang Quanzui.
Wang Quan was drunk and stunned for a moment, and a feeling of anger rose in his heart.
Just when she was about to take the opportunity to escape, she suddenly remembered something and quickly touched her purse. Murong Ji didn't leave her the purse.
"Then I will have to eat dirt on my way back..."
For a moment, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, feeling that he was being held in the control of others. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and waved his fist fiercely at Murong Ji's back.
"Crack crack crack!"
He uttered all kinds of onomatopeia, and then he directed and acted out the words: "Ah! Ah! Ah! It hurts! Beautiful Dream Swordsman, please stop hitting me!"
"Your Taoism is so advanced that it is hard to find one in a thousand years. Even if I, Chen Mi, practice for eight hundred years, I am still no match for you! I am willing to be your slave, please spare my life!"
Then, Wang Quanzui changed his voice and said, "Since you beg for mercy so sincerely, I will show mercy and let you go."
Murong Ji: "..."
"Why aren't you leaving yet? Are you feeding the mosquitoes?" Murong Ji said speechlessly and continued walking down the mountain. Are these kids so difficult to deal with?
Wang Quanzui was completely deflated. He followed Murong Ji dejectedly and walked down the mountain together.
Soon I became a little impatient. Looking at these two people, who were obviously very powerful, but insisted on going down the mountain, I really didn't know what they were thinking.
Her feet hurt from walking so much! She could no longer walk.
After walking the mountain road for several hours, I felt like I had never walked more in my entire life.
Seeing Huang Shiren pulling the cart effortlessly, his eyes lit up, he ran a few steps, quietly climbed onto the cart, and sat next to his brother...
Return to the city.
Murong Ji rented a yard, threw these ten people into the yard, and went to rest on his own.
The sky is bright.
Then he headed towards the hill and sneaked in.
When I came back, Xiao Wanqing had already given the order to start work.
Near noon, the hill finally revealed its true appearance.
This really is a tomb.
But no one knew what was buried.
What is dug out now is still the black soil, which has been soaked by the corpse water.
Murong Ji looked up at the sun above his head, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger.
After noon, the hill was completely dug out, revealing a dark skeleton. This skeleton was extremely strange, the dark color was not the most important thing, but the faint black gas that slowly diffused from it was the most terrifying.
It makes people feel cold in their hearts, as if they have really crawled out of hell.
If it is hell, it is not so scary. The Huangquan clan and their Taoist alliance have heard of it.
But this is completely different from the Huangquan clan!
Murong Ji frowned slightly, looking at the huge black skeleton. The skeleton was extremely strange and did not conform to the characteristics of any living creature at all. They didn't even have much in common. It was as if it was an illusion that it did not belong to this world.
What kind of creature is this? Even though he is knowledgeable, he can't recognize it.
To find out what other abilities Jin Chenxi's true body has, further experiments are needed. However, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Subconsciously retreated to the rear.
He was not the only one who had this feeling. The Taoist masters who were relatively close, as well as the many demon kings brought by Beishan Jiye, all stood up and slowly surrounded the corpse.
They all retreated as if facing a powerful enemy.
No one knew what the enemy was capable of, so they just relied on their instinctive reaction to be on guard. After waiting for a while, nothing unexpected happened, but the feeling of uneasiness became more and more clear.
Murong Ji waited for a long time without seeing any unexpected happening. He circulated his true energy and gathered it towards his eyes, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
That black skeleton, how could it be black? In his sight, it was clearly golden, a huge golden skeleton.
A faint golden energy glow was constantly spreading within it.
It was like a myriad of stars, constantly spreading out in all directions.
Murong Ji's expression became more and more solemn. This was the source of his uneasy feeling.
Countless points of golden light slowly attached to everyone's bodies and merged into their souls... They slightly separated from the Yang Spirit and looked at the huge black skeleton.
There seemed to be something attached to the bones, as if it was the soul of Jin Chenxi, weird, tempting, and terrifying.
"Is this thing really Jin Chenxi's original appearance? Is it really dead?" Murong Ji was a little unsure in his heart. It was really too weird.
In his impression, Jin Chenxi's true form is a golden liquid.
It was very strange that it could parasitize the human soul. But now it looked more like a creature left over from ancient times.
It has its own form, soul and breath. But that liquid state is an indescribable state.
Theoretically speaking, the essence, qi and spirit of living things can be transformed into each other, which Murong Ji has confirmed.
The innate qi transforms the limbs.
The limbs and bones rebel against Samadhi, and Samadhi rebels against the innate Qi. After transforming into the most fundamental thing of a living being, it is easy to transform back into soul, breath, or body.
However, Murong Ji felt that Jin Chenxi's three states were like three different creatures. Rather than saying that they were Jin Chenxi, it would be better to say that they were three creatures that were interdependent and parasitic on each other.
[This thing... is still alive?! ]
After thinking about it, Murong Ji rejected this idea.
The Third Young Master of Aolai Kingdom would never allow such a thing to survive in the circle. It was not a creature like the bitter love tree that took root in the circle, was harmless, and made the Third Young Master helpless.
Coming back to his senses, Murong Ji slowly exhaled. This thing still made him a little uneasy.
[Why not find someone to do an experiment on?] As soon as the idea came to his mind, Murong Ji had a target. His cold eyes swept over everyone one by one, and finally landed on Xiao Tianhao.
On the other side, Xiao Tianhao and Li Muchen stood not far away. Both of them were wearing the clothes of Taoist disciples. Li Muchen stared at the things dug out from the hill in a daze, with a somewhat obsessed look on his face, muttering: "Is this a creature from outside the circle?"
"Now, no one can be sure. This is a creature outside the circle. Many people in that circle have seen it. The monsters have a long lifespan and know some things." Xiao Tianhao said lightly, looking at Li Muchen with a doting face.
He helped her tuck her sideburns and continued, "But the human race's iteration is too fast, so it's difficult to spread information. Besides, no one has ever seen a creature outside of their circle."
Xiao Tianhao looked at Li Muchen's profile intently, not paying any attention to the black skeleton, and Li Muchen seemed not to have noticed it.
Murong Ji raised the corner of his mouth slightly. What a good show! He had thought that it would take some effort, but who could have thought that the progress of these two people was faster than he imagined.
[You can accept disciples to preach, but you can’t accept lovers, or you’ll fall into the trap yourself…]
Xiao Tianhao came back to his senses and whispered, "Okay, now that we've seen it, it's time to go back with me."
Li Muchen nodded obediently, and asked casually, "Where will this thing be shipped to? Tianxuan City?"
Xiao Tianhao hesitated for a moment, but kept silent, looking embarrassed.
"Hmph! Just forget it if you don't want to tell me!" Li Muchen walked outside in a hurry.
Xiao Tianhao panicked, and quickly followed, coaxing, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't know where this thing will be shipped to."
"Under normal circumstances, it should be sent to the secret place of the Dao League, but I don't know exactly where the secret place of the Dao League is."
Li Muchen turned around, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is it the place where the broken stone is stored?"
Xiao Tianhao nodded.
Not long after, the two men sneaked out again.
After leaving the Dao League's encirclement, Li Muchen turned his head and glanced inside the mountain, thinking to himself: [Reverend Beishan...?]
It was getting late, and Xiao Wanqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately nothing had gone wrong.
Then, he began to direct the Taoist League disciples to collect and pack the bones, and affix sealing runes to them, and nothing unexpected happened.
After dealing with everything, the stone that was weighing on my heart was finally lifted.
He personally escorted the skeleton back to Jubei City and sealed it up.
Murong Ji didn't know what kind of agreement the Beishan Demon Tribe and the Yiqi Dao League had, but the matter had not yet come to an end, and the person called the Beishan Reverend had not been found yet.
Beishan Jiye also began to lead the demon tribe to gradually evacuate the hill area.
As evening approaches, the hill becomes quiet and silent. No longer as lively and popular as before, it seems even more eerie and spooky.
