Chapter Forty-Nine: Departure Again
Because he waited for the snake demon to recover from his injuries, Xuanyi had to stay in the cave for another day, and the master's body was about to decompose, so he had to bury it hastily and return here in the future. The corpses of snakes everywhere provided Xuanyi with food to keep him from starving.
A day later, in the Shangpin Restaurant in Yunlan Town, Xuanyi enjoyed the food in front of him, and took a sip from time to time with a wine glass. The snake demon Satsuki transformed into a human form and sat opposite him, she gulped down the wine, as if she was not interested in the food in front of her, and a black cloak hid her entire face, leaving only a slender figure to attract reverie.
After a full meal, the two returned to Xuanyi's residence, Xuanyi walked briskly, and Xiaoyue followed closely by his side. Through his previous conversations, Xuan Yi learned that the house he bought was not just a place of extreme yin, and the yellow spring worm that appeared on the door later also confirmed this.
According to Xiao Yue, the willow demon Huanxin stole a trace of Xuanyi's memory and found that he had a close relationship with the protector of Juxian Pavilion Xia Qingyu, which coincided with the recent frequent activities of major gangs in Jinhai, so he came up with the idea of trying to control Xuanyi to spy on intelligence, when the three of them took the initiative to visit, they actually found that Xuanyi's residence was full of yin air and was full of weirdness, but because Huanxin had recently made an appointment with other demon kings to trade, he couldn't find time to investigate carefully, so he only left a few little demons to monitor, and after the transaction was completed, the three of them returned here and didn't expect to encounter Xuanyi's master and apprentice, so there was a previous big warγ
The two returned to the small courtyard, the courtyard door was locked, a row of willow trees outside the door no longer existed, walking into the courtyard, everything remained the same, the old rocking chair was abandoned in the courtyard alone, the breeze shook slightly, making a creaking sound, as if the master Qi was lying in it with a peaceful face playing a fan.
Xuanyi wiped the corners of his slightly moist eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you find the strongest yin qi?"
Xiao Yue thought for a moment and replied: "The last time we came with Miss, we found that the yin qi was mainly coming from near the kitchen, and I went to investigate it by boiling water, and it seems that the source is a corner outside the kitchen. β
"Take me there!" Xuanyi nodded slightly.
The two walked around the courtyard gate and went straight to the back of the house, and after some searching, they found something strange under a stone slab outside the kitchen.
Digging up the slate, an extremely strong cold air gushed upward, and the two of them couldn't help but shiver together. Underneath the slab is a hole the size of an adult's palm, dark and deep.
"Is this the snake cave?" Xuanyi looked at Xiao Yue suspiciously.
"Impossible!" Satsuki shook her head negatively, "The entrance of this cave is extremely round, and there are no traces of crawling outside the cave, it should be derived from under the ground." β
Xuanyi found a bamboo pole and poked it along the hole, and found that the hole was in a trapezoidal shape, with a cave below, and the more you went inside, the more space there was. With the stirring of the bamboo pole, there was a cold air flow leaking out of the hole, and this air flow sprayed on Xuanyi's body was extremely uncomfortable, and Xiao Yue looked very enjoyable, and even took the initiative to step forward and take a deep breath.
Xuanyi lay on the ground, took the Yin and Yang Identification Technique and looked towards the cave, and saw that there seemed to be something buried in the soil below. He called out to Satsuki, and the two of them began to dig with a shovel, and the "item" buried in the soil finally reappeared after a lot of effort.
A white chubby worm!
The insect has a snow-white body, a cylindrical body more than half a meter long, and a flat head with hideous mouthparts.
"Huangquan Motherworm! It's still a Huangquan Motherworm waiting to give birth!" Satsuki exclaimed. A clear glimpse of the mother's bloated abdomen could be seen along her fingers.
"Doesn't the Yellow Spring Worm dwell in the Netherworld, how did it appear here?" asked Xuan Yi, pinching his chin.
"Maybe some demon king put it here to keep it free-range. Xiao Yue didn't reply, staring at the Huangquan female worm, her eyes full of longing and excitement.
"You seem to be desperate for it?"
Xiao Yue nodded, "If I can fully absorb its power, my strength will reach the spirit demon level." β
"Spirits?"
"That's right, our demon strength is roughly divided into four levels: small demon, big demon, spirit demon, and demon king. β
Xuanyi nodded slightly, the spirit demon level is equivalent to the level of the powerful ghost among the ghosts, there is still a huge gap between the demon king and the ghost king, and the willow demon Huanxin, who was rampant before, is only a quasi-demon king level, not a real demon king.
Xuanyi handed over the Huangquan mother worm to Xiao Yue and returned to the front yard alone, although this time the escape from death was not physically exhausted, but psychologically it was almost at the limit.
Xiao Yue imprisons the mother worm of Huangquan, preparing to start absorbing yin qi for self-improvement after laying eggs, which will be a boring and lengthy process.
Early the next morning, Xuanyi took Xiaoyue to the cemetery, collected the relics of his master, and found a book of the primary exercises of the Wildfire Sect "Extreme Path Initial Solution", which contained the five basic exercises of the Wildfire Sect, in addition to the three moves that Xuanyi had learned before, as well as the talisman making technique and blood explosion technique that Qi planned to pass on to him later. It's a pity that the high-level exercises of the Wildfire Sect must be passed on by word of mouth according to the ancestral teachings, so they can only regrettably miss out.
Qi's relics are very simple and simple, in addition to a few sets of clothes and a book of exercises, there is only a piece of emerald green token, the token style is simple, the surface is smooth, I think there are a lot of thoughts, the word "Qi" is written in the middle of it, and the number 48 is engraved directly below the token, which is also a token on behalf of the master's identity.
Xuanyi picked up the token and looked at it, and suddenly found that the handwriting on the token was gradually blurred, and the master's name and number gradually disappeared, and then the token shone again, and a huge "Min" word was printed in the center, and the number below also became 49 words, it turned out that the inheritance of the Wildfire Sect is not only the inheritance of the exercises, but also the tokens after the fall of the disciples. Carefully stroking the token and hanging it around his waist, his heart was full of deep remembrance and determination.
The task of inspecting the cemetery and suppressing the evil ghosts was handed over to Xiao Yue, and it happened that she also needed a long time to refine the Huangquan Mother Worm, and with her current strength, as long as she didn't encounter the powerful ghosts, there was no pressure.
Xuan Yi finished explaining everything and planned to return to Beihe to visit Xia Qingyu, he remembered that he had met the four demons of Jiangyin in the restaurant by chance and the vice president of the Tianxia Association who pretended to be a wealthy businessman, and he was worried, so many first-level gangs gathered in Jinhai, something important must have happened.
Because he was worried about Xia Qingyu's safety, Xuanyi said goodbye to Xiaoyue the next morning and left Yunlan to rush to Beihe.
After resting all night, Xuanyi rushed towards the Beihe branch of Juxian Pavilion full of energy, and he hadn't seen her for a long time, and his heart was full of excitement and joy.
