Xiang Yun is not Conan.

He wasn't so interested in Du Xu's affairs.

The top priority is to catch this mutated centipede spirit as soon as possible.

Some people may not know much about spirits and monsters, and they will think of spirits and monsters as the same thing. In fact, the two are different concepts.

What is Essence?

All things have the possibility of producing spirituality and then opening up spiritual intelligence, this phenomenon is called becoming essence, so the field of spirit formation is very wide, in addition to birds and beasts, plants, trees, flowers and stones can become essence.

Mountains and rivers are mountain gods.

The river spirit is the river god.

The bench can be fine, and the book can be fine.

To be more extreme, a soak of urine and a lump of stool, as long as it produces spirituality and gives birth to a trace of spiritual wisdom, then it can also become urine and stool essence.

Everything has a spirit, and a spirit is not necessarily a life form in the narrow sense of cognition, it can be a change from anything, even a ball of air.

What is a demon?

Generally speaking, non-primates originally did not have the ability to cultivate. But if one day, the creature suddenly changes and has the ability to cultivate, then this guy can be regarded as a demon.

An ordinary chicken will definitely not be able to cultivate on its own.

But if one of the chickens in the flock mutates and suddenly has the ability to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, then this chicken will no longer be a chicken, and it will transform into a chicken demon full of potential.

There are two kinds of demons: demon beasts and demon clans.

The demon beast is a demon that does not have the ability to transform and does not have the ability to transform into a shape, and the helmsman of the Dark Brotherhood in Yangzhou County is a typical high-IQ demon beast.

Although the dog helmsman has long become a demon and has also cultivated to more than seven veins, the special nature of the race makes it only able to maintain the state of a demon beast for the time being, and cannot transform into a demon race.

The real demon clan is usually an existence like Lan Xiang, although it still has the body of a demon beast, but it can gradually transform into a human form.

Most of the cases between monsters and monsters cannot reproduce across races, and even if a dog demon and a chicken demon develop a cross-species relationship, it is impossible to give birth to a new breed of chicken-dog hybrid

There is no reproductive isolation between the demon clan and the demon clan.

The demon race can even breed half-demons with humans.

To sum up, in a nutshell, becoming a spirit usually refers to a breakthrough in spiritual intelligence, and becoming a demon refers to a leap in physical structure.

It can be said that in most cases, the essence will be accompanied by the demon.

This is also the reason why people often talk about goblins and goblins, but there are also very few cases where animals and plants have a high level of spiritual wisdom but still have no way to cultivate.

Becoming a demon does not necessarily become a spirit.

Therefore, in many inaccessible places, people often encounter some powerful brute beasts, the strength of these brute beasts is terrifying, but the intelligence is still at a very low level.

This situation is a typical demon but not a spirit.

The centipede spirit that was sealed in this cave was just a centipede monster that had been cultivated for about a hundred years, chaotic, without intelligence, and hunting completely according to the instinct of a low-level reptile, and was later captured alive because he killed too many people.

Master Du Xu bought this hundred-year-old centipede monster with a lot of money and put it in this cave to cultivate secretly, but he didn't think of raising tigers.

He fed the centipede monster to the white and fat.

The centipede monster ate him in turn.

The tragedy should not have happened, but the centipede monster suddenly became a spirit, and since then it has gotten rid of the low-level instincts of the race and has a certain ability to think, which is an unexpected change.

Of course, it is not known whether there are other reasons for this.

The disc in Du Xu's hand was full of light, and suddenly a beam of light burst out on the stone door, making the stone door that closed the cave slowly open.

And the moment the stone door opened.

A thick aura as thick as black ink erupted from it in an instant.

Seeing this, Lan Xiang hurriedly shouted: "Be careful, this is highly poisonous gas!"

As she spoke, Lan Xiang hurriedly avoided it, because her keen intuition told her that this aura was very dangerous, and even she couldn't underestimate it.

To her great surprise, Mr. Yao and Mr. Yao's attendants never moved, allowing the black mist to submerge their bodies, but they didn't even react at all.

About a few tens of seconds later.

The poisonous gas, which had been accumulated for several years, gradually faded.

Xiang Yun said lightly: "It's okay, let's go in." ”

Du Xu saw that Mr. Yao didn't take the poisonous gas of the cave in his eyes at all, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened, it seemed that Mr. Yao was really a master.

On the contrary, after a short period of stunned, Lan Xiang didn't think it was incredible, it was commendable that this happened to others, but it seemed normal to happen to Mr. Yao.

Lan Xiang and Du Xu followed Xiang Yun into the cave.

The cave is closed all year round and does not see the light of day, and it is almost so dark that you can't see your fingers, but it doesn't seem to be an obstacle for a few people, Lan Xiang and Luo Zheng needless to say, Du Xu and Xiang Yun also have a way to deal with it.

Du Xu gave his eyes a drop in advance that can increase his eyesight, and he can distinguish things even in total darkness.

As for Xiang Yun, he has the supreme respect pupil physique, even if he doesn't directly induce a double pupil, his eyesight is far ten times stronger than that of ordinary people, if it's just that the light is dim, there is no way to hinder him.

Torches are saved.

The four of them walked straight in.

The first thing in front of them was a small river, flowing with black springs, silent, almost stagnant, soaked in all sorts of residues, and constantly emitting a rotting stench.

Lan Xiang frowned and asked, "What's the matter with this water?"

"This is poisonous spring water gushing out of a poisonous spring. Du Xu explained: "The reason why the ancestors opened a cave here in the past was because they found this poisonous spring here. ”

Xiang Yun has also seen it.

This poisonous fountain is not simple.

Its formation is related to the spiritual veins of feng shui and geology, and its spring water is extremely poisonous, and for ordinary people, even if it only touches the skin, it can be fatal.

The poisons raised in the cave drink such poisonous springs all year round without being poisoned, and the toxins accumulated in their bodies must be beyond imagination, and these pharmacists who specialize in refining poisons are really perverted enough.

Du Xu opened the mechanism.

Several people crossed a small bridge and officially entered the cave.

The cave as a whole is not large, and it looks like a mess because it has not been taken care of for many years.

All kinds of droppings, broken pupa, spider silk are everywhere.

And these things are highly poisonous.

There are many cell-like cages in the caves, which were used to hold monsters in the past, but now not only have they all been destroyed, but the contents of the cave have disappeared, and some of them can still see a few pieces of dry bones.

It must have been eaten.

It sends chills down the spine and shudders.

"Teacher, it seems that there is something in front of me. ”

Xiang Yun's gaze fell on the wall in front of him, the entire huge wall was actually covered with all kinds of sticky silks, and these sticky silks carried many black insect eggs, which looked like bunches of grapes at first glance, and most of the insect eggs were like hearts.

"Devil moth eggs?"

Xiang Yun recognized this thing through the Book of Heaven.

The devil moth is a poisonous insect with a very strong ability to reproduce.

They themselves hardly have the potential to become demons and spirits, and naturally they don't have the ability to cultivate, but this kind of thing is very poisonous, and a devil moth can poison and kill hundreds of ordinary people.

Du Xu hurriedly explained: "The devil moth is one of the fodder here, and there are several devil moth breeding rooms in the cave, and their strong reproduction ability can ensure that the feed is sufficient. ”

Lan Xiang had a bad premonition: "But now, the eggs have been distributed here, which means that the closed cultivation room has long been useless." ”

Almost at the same time.

Everyone hears a rustling sound.

It's like there's a myriad of things rubbing against the ground.

Luo Zheng said in a hoarse voice: "We are surrounded by bugs. ”

Xiang Yun, Lan Xiang, and Du Xu all found that the wall above their heads was gray, and if they didn't look closely, they would think that this was the color of the rock wall itself, but in fact, it was an illusion caused by countless devil moths covering it.

These moths are about the size of a fingernail.

The number is very large, densely packed in tens of thousands.

In this way, the centipede spirit will not lack food at all in this hole!

And at this very time.

The sleeping devil moths were awakened.

They spread their wings and began to fall off the top of the rock.
