Chapter 6: The Snake Cave, Ten Thousand Gu Roaring

"In this world, there is no karma in killing itself. ”

"It is only when the slain creature has a grudge against me that my karma increases. ”

"If the resentment occurs for a long time, the karma of the harvest will also increase, even higher than the merit. ”

"But if the slain creature doesn't have a grudge against me, or if it doesn't have time to do so, the karma on me won't increase. ”

"Therefore, if you want to reap more merit than karma, you must kill quickly, so fast that the living beings can only release a little resentment, or even too late to release resentment!"

"Of course, if the slain creature is grateful to me for killing him, I will be able to reap more merit. ”

"It's just that I haven't encountered it yet!"

Leaving the secret room, Lu Sheng gently shook some stones to cover up this piece. Then, after crawling through a few more forks, he began to catch snakes and insects, and observed the changes in merit and karma through quick killing, slow killing, and torture killing.

These are the conclusions he observed.

------------------

"In the same way, if someone develops feelings of hatred or resentment towards me, my karma may increase. ”

"The so-called 'what a thousand people refer to, and they end without a problem' is probably the death calamity that has been directly caused by the excessive karma obtained!"

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng also has a certain understanding of the method of obtaining merit and karma:

"Contrary to karma, if someone feels feelings of gratitude, admiration, etc., for me, it is equally possible that my merit will increase. ”

These can all be called human merits or karma. ”

"The merit of killing is different, it comes from the reward of heaven and earth. It's because I let these creatures return to their origins, return to heaven and earth, and heaven and earth give back to me!"

It can be said that killing is an act that is recognized by this world and is beneficial to it, and this merit can be called the merit of heaven and earth. ”

"Conversely, if I do something harmful to this world, it is possible to gain heaven and earth karma. ”

Humane merit, humane karma, heaven and earth merit, heaven and earth karma, this is Lu Sheng's division of the merit and karma that he can obtain at this time.

When you kill, you reap the merits of heaven and earth and human karma.

There is no distinction between these two types of merit and karmic wishes, which means that their effects are basically the same. ”

"Even if there may be a slight difference, it doesn't make any difference to me. ”

While thinking, Lu Sheng casually killed a hibernating snake and worm. This time, he received 1 more merit.

Most ordinary snakes and insects can only provide 1 merit, and those xenos with the blood of demon pythons will provide more. ”

"This may be caused by the difference in the origin of living beings, only if I receive more origin in heaven and earth, can I get more feedback!"

"So, when I am stronger and kill more powerful beings, I must gain more merit!"

------------------

Knowing the source of merit and karma, Lu Sheng began to think about their role again.

"The effect of merit is almost omnipotent, and there is no need to test it again. ”

"It's just, what's the use of karma?"

In this regard, Lu Sheng had faint worries in his heart. Merit has many effects on oneself, and it is certain that it will be consumed.

And karma has not found a way to use it at the moment, and if it continues to accumulate, too much karma may have a bad effect on oneself.

At that time, Lu Sheng's trouble may be big!

"Perhaps, try it on other creatures!"

didn't dare to test it on himself, Lu Sheng grabbed a snake casually, his luck was stunned, and he thought.

Seeing that his karma had reached 59 points because of the test just now, Lu Sheng's mind condensed, and he commanded Ruyi:

"Ruyi, apply 1 karma to this snake!"

Then, his karma attribute immediately changed to 57 points. As for the snake, it was still unconscious, and there was no reaction.

"Sure enough, it can be consumed!"

Finding a way to consume karma, Lu Sheng was overjoyed. Being able to be consumed, karma is no longer a problem for him. Now it's more important to test karma.

"Ruyi, put 1 more karma on this snake!"

......

With such continuous exertion of karma, the snake in Lu Sheng's hand also began to change. When he applies 1 karma, the snake has awakened from a coma, when he applies 5 karma, the snake has become hideous, and when he applies more than 10 karma, the snake has no more intelligence and only knows to attack wildly.

After capturing a few more snakes, Lu Sheng exhausted 59 points of karma and found no other changes, so he had to kill them and temporarily stop the experiment.

"The effect of karma seems to be the negative factor that increases living beings, and the opposite of the effect of merit. ”

"This effect, although it may be useful at some point, is far less meritorious to me. ”

"Maybe I haven't found the true use of karma, but for now, in order to prevent too much karma from causing disaster, it is still necessary to consume some captured creatures from time to time and then kill them. ”

"Other roles need to be explored later!"

After this test, Lu Sheng's heart also temporarily decided on the use of karma.

------------------

While looking for a way out, he killed snakes and insects. Looking at the growing merits and karma, Lu Sheng's heart suddenly had a feeling of playing games in his previous life, as if he was killing monsters now, and those snakes and insects were providing experience for themselves.

"A snake cave that has fallen into hibernation is really a treasure place to obtain merit!"

As the technique became more and more proficient, Lu Sheng's speed of killing snakes became faster and faster. Many snakes and insects were in hibernation, and they didn't have time to wake up and have resentment, so they were completely killed by him.

Because of this, Lu Sheng's merit data is getting more and more, and the karma data is always stable in a range, once it is exceeded, it will be consumed by Lu Sheng without hesitation to catch a snake to ensure that it will not have a bad impact on himself.

It's just that this snake cave is not a slaughterhouse after all, there are many snakes killed, and some instinctive and powerful snakes and insects seem to sense the murderous aura on his body, and when he arrives, they hide one after another.

This also caused Lu Sheng's killing efficiency to start decreasing, and when encountering an opponent, the efficiency was even lower.

With a "whoosh", a purple snake with the thickness of a thumb and a foot long dodged Lu Sheng's short knife. Then he jumped up, like lightning, and swooped back towards Lu Sheng.

"Khooth!"

Reaching out and flicking it on the purple snake, Lu Sheng only heard a "clang" sound, as if it was bounced on gold and iron, and his fingers were numb for a while.

And the purple snake followed his strength, made a turn in mid-air, and pounced again. If it weren't for Lu Sheng's other hand returning the knife quickly and blocking it back, I was afraid that he might really be bitten by this snake.

"This speed, this body, this purple snake, I'm just afraid that it's about to enter the ranks!"

Feeling his aching fingers, Lu Sheng thought to himself.

According to different strengths, demon beasts are also high and low. Among them, the first, second, and third-order demon beasts roughly correspond to the martial masters, great martial artists, and grandmasters of human beings.

Entry-level demon beasts usually also refer to demon beasts that have just become first-order.

Killed so many snakes before, although there are many xenomorphs among them, but this snake can be said to be the strongest that Lu Sheng has encountered. Even if he's not careful, he could be planted here!

"Hiss!

As fast as lightning, Purple Snake and Lu Sheng made a few more moves, but they couldn't help each other.

As if sensing that Lu Sheng was not easy to provoke, the purple snake did not attack again after that, but followed Lu Sheng closely with a backfix.

------------------

"Khooth!"

Suddenly turning around again, but failing to kill the other party, Lu Sheng's heart flashed with a hint of malaise.

I don't know what's going on, this snake seems to have recognized Lu Sheng, no matter what Lu Sheng does, it has been following Lu Sheng closely.

And Lu Sheng set up a plan several times to hunt and kill this snake, but it was also recognized by it and failed to work.

"No! It's not the way to go!"

"This purple snake is very small and extremely fast, which is suitable for playing in this small snake cave. ”

"And even though I have all the strength, I can't really hurt it. ”

"If I continue like this, although I have merit recovery, I won't be attacked by the purple snake because of fatigue. ”

"But because we always have to divide our energy, we can't get a lot of gains!"

With the interference of the purple snake, Lu Sheng was not as easy as before when killing snakes, and he could even verify the acquisition and use of merit and karma while killing snakes.

Now, he can only look for an opportunity to kill one or two when he is paying attention to the purple snake.

"And this snake can see through my schemes, either because it's very intelligent, orβ€”"

"Someone taught!"

Thinking about it, Lu Sheng just thought of this, and found that in the passage he had just passed, a voice suddenly came.

Through the faint light, Lu Sheng vaguely saw a figure of about three feet, like a snake and worm, climbing quickly in the passage.

This speed, although not as fast as the Purple Snake, is far faster than Lu Sheng!

"Hahaha! Little cub of the Lu family, I didn't expect you to be here!"

"These days, you must be doing well, right? Even my little Ah Zi can't help you!"

Before I saw him, I heard his voice first, and this voice was so familiar that Lu Sheng quickly confirmed the identity of the other party as soon as he heard it:

"Ten Thousand Gu Xiao!"

It was the disciple of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Yuan Gu Sect who killed the father of this body and made him have to dodge, who used the Bone Shrinking Technique to shrink his body and quickly chased after him in the passage.
