Chapter 300: Learned

The deep darkness, the purple vines, the tenacious branches, the sharp spikes, are not so much vines as the tentacles of the devil reaching out in the world. The monk was almost completely encased in vines that had spread from the ground, leaving only his head bare.

The sharp spikes pierced deep into the monk's flesh and blood, and the monk's blood and even vitality were sucked at an extremely fast speed, passing through a small pipe in the spikes, injecting the absorbed flesh and vitality into the body, turning into the body's nourishment. The spikes of this vine also secrete venom that can paralyze the nerves, so that the monk's combat power is minimized in the shortest possible time.

The monk's whole body was withering and shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, the monk's eyes were full of deep despair, he opened his mouth wide, but he didn't make any sound, it turned out that when he opened his mouth, a vine went directly into his mouth, so that he couldn't make any sound.

Slowly, the monk's eyes darkened, his head lost its strength, and slowly lowered, and the vines wrapped around him slowly loosened the strength of the entanglement, and began to be gradually retracted into the ground. After the vines were removed, the monk's body was revealed, his skin covered with dark strangulation marks, and one after another deep small cries covered his body, and because of the massive blood loss, his body was made two circles smaller, and the already thin body was almost only drooping skin and bones that could be faintly discerned.

On the ground not far from the monk's body, the dark earth and the yellow leaves that covered it gradually separated, and a dark shadow grew from the earth until it was one man tall. The black robe and hood, and the bark-like face were just the dark shadows that had gone on a killing spree in the village before.

"Hahaha, Xuanyun Sect, you wait for me slowly, this is just a small beginning. A hoarse voice came from the hood, like two rough stones rubbing against each other, and it was impossible to imagine what the man's throat was made of.

This man stood in the darkness of the night like a demon full of resentment, crawling out of hell and now seeking revenge on the whole world and devouring all living beings one by one.

A flickering candle stood on the quaint and simple table, the flickering light stirred the shadow of Elder Stylan sitting on the bed, the night was already very deep, but Elder Styling Lan did not cultivate, nor did he sleep, just stared blankly at the flickering firelight. The flickering firelight reflected in Elder Stylan's eyes, reflecting her unsettled heart beneath her calm exterior.

She was about to start carrying out this project that she had been waiting for all her life, and Elder Stylan's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, she hadn't been able to calm down and cultivate in the past few days, and she couldn't even sleep peacefully, which was almost impossible for a monk in the late stage of entering the Holy Realm.

Elder Stygian knew that this might be the most important and only chance in her life, the coveted right was right in front of her eyes, how could she calm down, how could she not lose sleep every night. Although the plan is not so perfect, after coordinating with Qin Ping many times, this is already the least problematic way. Elder Stygian knew that this step out would be a cliff, and either she would be allowed to stand on the top of the mountain, or she would be pushed off the cliff and never recover.

A sharp-tailed swift cut through the quiet night and landed on the windowsill of the Elder Stygian, and the closed window was pecked by the sharp-tailed swift's beak and made a clattering sound. Elder Stygian stood up, opened the window, and looked at the sharp-tailed swift that was looking around but standing honestly in place, Elder Stygian showed an unusual solemn look on his face.

This sharp-billed swift is a very weak Yuan beast, but it is extremely fast, and it can even catch up with the speed of a monk in the middle of the Holy Realm. The Xuanyun Sect trained a few, which were specially used to deliver important news. However, because this kind of primordial beast is relatively rare, the Xuanyun Sect has only found and trained less than ten of them over the years, and in many cases it is used to pass on news to the sect master and the main elders.

This time, there was an elite disciple who disappeared when he went out to complete the task, and he was not able to return to the sect on time to recover his life, nor did he explain it in other ways, so the sect sent other disciples to explore the situation. Elder Stygian suddenly had a hint of warning in his heart when he knew about this, as if something important had happened, Elder Stygian thought about it again, and felt that there might be something strange about this matter, so he gave a sharp-tailed swift to the disciple who was now going to explore the situation, and asked him to directly send the book back when he found out what key situation.

Sure enough, the sharp-tailed swift was still used, and Elder Stylan's hunch still worked. Elder Stygian held the sharp-tailed swift in the palm of his hand, carefully removed the note that the sharp-tailed swift was carrying, and then gently reached out to let the sharp-tailed swift go. Elder Stygian walked back to the side of the table and spread the note on the table, using the light of the candle flame to check the information on the small note.

"Report to the three elders, in the north hundred miles of Wuliang Mountain, found a village that was destroyed by fire, all the people in it died there in a strange way, the whole person seemed to be sucked dry by something, there were a few strange holes on everyone's body, and their faces were very frightened, because of the fire, only a few complete corpses were there, and the rest were burned by the fire, not far from the village, I found the body of the senior brother, the death method was similar to that of the villagers, but there were deep strangulation marks and small holes all over the body, and the preliminary judgment was that the evil cultivators were in chaos。 ”

These words pierced Elder Minglan's nerves like needles. Elder Stygian casually put the note on the candle flame, and the candle flame couldn't wait to spread to the note, Elder Stygian didn't let go, and she didn't seem to feel the flame burning her fingers, just looking out the window. Soon, the note was completely incinerated into a handful of ashes.

Elder Stylan's brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed with an uncertain light, so that he didn't even feel the flames burning his fingers, and when the entire note was burned out, Elder Stygian still pinched the handful of ashes and didn't let go. Such a thing appeared at this juncture, and Elder Stylan knew that it was because of a coincidence or some other reason, and Elder Stylan didn't know if this matter would affect her plan to ascend to the throne.
