Chapter 38: The Grave Birds

The face burrowed into the ground and fled into the distance.

As long as it can safely crawl through the woods and escape under the paved road not far ahead, it is almost safe!

Because the mud can easily be plowed, it is too unsafe to hide underneath.

The asphalt road is much harder, the plough is much more difficult, and the movement is too large, so it is easy to be discovered by the shrine and shrine forces in charge of the surrounding area.

Therefore, it felt that no matter how good the other party was, it would be impossible to turn over the asphalt road to catch it.

- Of course, what it thinks makes sense doesn't necessarily make sense!

Even if it makes sense, it probably won't be of much use!

In this world, there are people who understand countless great truths, but in the end they still can't live their own lives, and they will never be a minority.

So, at the moment when it saw the dawn of victory, an eyeball that popped out of nowhere suddenly came in from the dirt in front of it.

With a snort, its face was pierced by the blood-red eyeball.

So a crack opened in its cheek, and out of it grew an eyeball, and then a lotus flower bloomed from the middle of the eyeball.

It first felt a sharp pain all over its body, and when the lotus flower completely bloomed, its nerves were completely frozen, not only was it pitch black in front of it, it lost all its vision, and even the control of its body was taken away by that eyeball.

Only the consciousness is very clear!

- This is because it is not an ordinary monster, but an "enlightened beast demon", with a tiger body and a human face, with a total of nine human faces, and these nine human faces can be released to act alone, with only a wisp of consciousness attached to it.

Therefore, after the face of the "Enlightened Beast Demon" was parasitized by the "Bloody Eye" hatched by the "Ghost Mother's Egg", all that was lost was one of the nine human faces, as well as a small wisp of split souls, and its main soul consciousness was still hidden in the body, hiding in a very distant place.

After Bloody Eye dodged the face of the Enlightened Beast Demon, it immediately discovered this, and it sneered, and took the face out of the ground and returned to the corpse of the Dark Bird.

"Looks like I'm not so lucky!" Bloodeye couldn't help muttering, "I was thinking of getting a body suitable for me to make a big impact, but I didn't expect to pick up all the rags - either a mutilated dead bird, or a stinky face with no head or brain, or a stinky corpse that has molded into corpse spots......"

......

At the same time, in a remote and secluded corridor in the ancient building complex "Sanjusangendo" located in Shichijo, Kyoto, a statue of the god of wind suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell from the throne and rolled to the ground, showing the original form of the tiger's body and nine faces.

"Enlightened Beast, why did you suddenly vomit blood?" another statue of Thor not far away suddenly spoke, "Could it be that something happened to this dark bird?"

The eight-faced "Enlightened Beast Demon" with a tiger body and eight faces said with palpitations: "Lord Grave Bird, something has happened! Lord Dark Bird and my face have been killed!"

"Killed? Who killed you?" There was a flash of light in the void, and the Thunder God statue turned into a humanoid monster with red eyes and a long mouth and a full body of soul, walked in front of the enlightened beast demon, crooked the bird's beak and said: "Although the strength of the Dark Bird is weaker than mine, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can easily kill!" I believe that even if it encounters a Great Onmyoji of the sixth order or above, as long as it does not recklessly turn around and flee, it will still have enough confidence to escape......

The enlightened beast demon couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help but think back to the image of the strange bloody eye just now cutting through its face, burrowing inch by inch into the skin, muscles, blood vessels, and nerves on its face.

At this moment, it was glad that it had only sent a face to follow the fool of the Dark Bird, otherwise if its body had been broken by the strange bloody eye, it would have been filled with blood-red eyes at this time.

"If you go back to the grave bird, the Dark Bird was not killed by humans, but ......"

The grave pit bird was stunned for a moment: "It's not a human being? Could it be that the ghosts under the hands of the seven old monsters living in the Buddhist hall next door killed them? Those two ghosts are just withered level, and their combat power is not stronger than that of the Dark Bird? Not to mention that they are ghosts, and they have to be distracted to control the corpse, how can they kill the Dark Bird and one of your faces in a short period of time?"

"It's true that the corpses of those two ghosts killed the Dark Bird, but I suspect that those two spirits have been parasitized by something even weirder......"

The enlightened beast demon briefly described what had happened.

The gravepit bird's brows couldn't help but furrow, and he said in disbelief: "Are you saying that the two ghosts hidden in the corpse went to the Hook Xuan Pavilion and suddenly poisoned you when they came back?"

The enlightened beast demon was not happy when he heard this, and muttered in a low voice: What do you mean by killing us? I just have a dead face!

Fortunately, the grave bird's attention was not on him at this time, so he didn't pay attention to it, but just muttered: "A bloody eye parasitic on your face instantly makes you lose control of your body and soul...... How does this sound like the 'Oni Mother's Egg' on the recipe that the Alien Master threw to the Shadow Shogunate's idiots?"

The enlightened beast demon's eyes lit up, and he slapped a bird's fart without hesitation: "When you say this, I think that thing is hatched from the 'ghost mother's egg' nine times out of ten!

This kind of occasion is not suitable for sycophants at all, right?

The gravepit bird couldn't help but glance at it, ignored it, and continued: "I used the technique of divine soul branding to make Hino Toshimitsu automatically and consciously swallow the 'Ghost Mother's Egg', and willingly serve as a petri dish for the 'Ghost Mother's Egg'...... It stands to reason that once the 'Ghost Mother's Egg' hatches from Hino Toshimitsu's corpse, it will be accompanied by a trace of the spirit imprint I left behind, and it should be easy for Gu Yu Bird to find and gather together!!"

"What's more, in the early hours of the morning, Gu Bird sent me a message that all one hundred and eight had been gathered...... How could it be that some of them took refuge in the Hook Xuan Pavilion, and also helped the Hook Xuan Pavilion parasitize those two ghosts, and attacked and killed the Dark Bird?"

- And parasitized one of my faces!

The enlightened beast demon was a little depressed, and the gravepit bird always forgot that its face was also sacrificed!

The Tomb Pit Bird frowned and said, "That Hook Xuan Pavilion is indeed a bit weird! The words and deeds of the Pavilion Master Tang Zeqian are even more incomprehensible! I am a little worried that he is a more formidable opponent than the Shrine Shrine and the Yin-Yang Liao! In the days to come, he is likely to become our biggest stumbling block!"
