Chapter 3: Hunt and Kill
"If you want to run, it's not that easy!Little bastard!You'd better obediently be the blood food of the old man's puppet beast!" The skeleton face obviously didn't expect Bai Yan to run so neatly, and he was so angry that he roared angrily for a while.
The black smoke that shrouded the top of the mountain changed rapidly, and finally transformed into an old man wrapped in a black robe, his crumpled face was covered with corpse spots the size of copper coins, and the top of his bare head was wriggling with clumps of poisonous maggots as thick as fingers. The old man glanced at the puppet beast squatting on the ground crying in distress, stretched out his hand, and a puff of black smoke enveloped the puppet monster the size of a child. The black smoke cleared, and the golem beast's eyes were even more fierce, roaring in the direction where the white flames had disappeared, ready to chase after them.
"Don't worry, baby. That little bastard can't run. Quack, let the father see if the blood of the young phoenix has the rumored effect, Quack ......" The old man said as he took the white porcelain bottle from the puppet beast's hand. The puppet beast crouching on the ground raised its fist-sized head, its bloodthirsty and murderous gaze swept over the old man, full of resentment and fear.
"The blood of the young phoenix is a good thing to open the spiritual intelligence of the spirit beast, although the effect on the puppet zombie beast is not very good, but it can also be better than nothing, and it can barely make your spiritual wisdom go further! The puppet god is cultivated to the sky, and his appearance is no different from ordinary people! If I can have such a puppet god...... Quack, even if it is the Sect Master, bow down to me!Quack!Ah! Nightmare Pill!Damn little bastard!Go kill him!Little baby, eat his heart!Drink up his blood!Go!Kill him!Damn little bastard of the Medicine God Sect!"
The puppet beast had already chased in the direction of Bai Yan's escape like lightning in the old man's roar, leaving only the black-robed old man standing alone on the top of the mountain, holding a pure white porcelain bottle in his hand, the bottle cap had already been opened, and a black weird flower with a strange fragrance stretched out from the porcelain bottle, and a human-like smiling face grew in the part of the stamen, and bursts of blue wave-like fragrance tightly enveloped the black-robed old man. As the fragrance of the flowers became more and more intense, the eyes of the black-robed old man glowing with green glow slowly closed and fell into a deep sleep.
Although the Ghost Valley Secret Puppet Technique is ranked at the bottom of the three major secret techniques of the Ghost Valley, the puppet beasts cultivated by the Ghost Valley Puppet Technique are definitely feared by many sects. Not for anything else, just for the undying pursuit of the puppet beast. The ghost valley puppet beast is cultivated by a special secret method in the ghost valley, and it has accumulated infinite anger and resentment since the beginning of the yuan fetus, and after drinking the blood of the master's heart, it knows the master's intentions. But this is not to say that the puppet beast is loyal to its master, in fact, the biggest object of the puppet beast's resentment is its own master, but because the secret method of the ghost valley is too domineering, the puppet beast kills the lord but has to endure the endless ghost fire burning soul in the Nine Shadows Land, so the general puppet beast will never betray the master, but turns the infinite resentment towards the master into absolute obedience to the master's orders. The pursuit of the target is definitely endless. What's even more terrifying is that the puppet beast itself is an immortal body, and it does not eat and eat for a long time, and its physical body is not afraid of water and fire, and it is not afraid of swords. Most of the disciples of various sects who traveled and cultivated abroad were taught by the elders of the sect to remember the admonition of "Rather mess with the four beast gods than meet the puppet beasts".
In a dense grass in the depths of the Beast God Mountain, a young man dressed in kudzu clothes was running quickly, his immature face was full of tiredness that could not be concealed, but most of his eyes were covered by his slightly messy long hair, but he was Bai Yan, a disciple of the Medicine God Sect who was chased and killed tens of thousands of miles by the puppet beast. This is the tenth day of the mountaintop chase, and as the days pass, his physical strength is slowly depleted, and the puppet beast behind him is becoming more and more crazy day by day. He could almost feel the heavy wheezing of the golem beast and the thick, undisguised smell of decay.
When there was a conflict between the top of the Beast God Mountain and the Ghost Valley, Bai Yan thought about how to deal with the aftermath. In fact, the safest way is to take the God Killer behind him back to the Medicine God Sect, although the Medicine God Sect belongs to a third-rate sect, it is not a problem for any elder to deal with a puppet beast. However, in this way, Guigu may not give up, which will definitely bring more trouble to the Medicine God Sect. Therefore, after weighing it, Bai Yan did not choose to return to the sect or ask the sect for help, but chose to escape deeper into the Beast God Mountain in order to seek a glimmer of life in the underworld.
Eighteen years ago, his mentor Hongchu brought Bai Yan back to the Medicine God Sect and accepted him as a closed disciple, and he was also the only disciple of Hongchu, Bai Yan's status in the sect was not lower than that of other senior brothers and sisters. However, due to Bai Yan's own unknown origin, many of the sect's junior brothers and sisters kept a little delicate distance from Bai Yan. It is precisely because of this that Bai Yan has very few people in the sect who he cares about in addition to his mentor Hongchu. From the age of seven, Bai Yan began to go down the mountain to practice alone, but every three years he returned to the sect to meet his teacher and read some ancient books of the sect. It is also the experience of struggling on the edge of life and death again and again for ten years that has made him develop a ruthless, decisive, thoughtful, and determined character.
"The puppet beast has been chasing and killing for thousands of miles with a grudge, in the past ten days, I have tried my best to travel on the route where there are many poisonous insects and beasts, and I think it has also slaughtered a lot of poisonous insects and giant beasts along the way, and the resentment in my heart should have dissipated by more than half compared to ten days ago, right? But why does the dangerous aura behind him not decrease but increase? Compared with the puppet zombie of the immortal body, the consumption is undoubtedly equivalent to sending oneself to death, and the result of this is only to be chased and eaten by it, and I must think of a way as soon as possible!" Bai Yan thought silently in his heart while running quickly in the wild grass.
He reached out and pulled out a white bird's egg, a layer of golden flames beating slightly around the egg.
"This item will restore my stamina that I have spent in a few days, and my chances of successfully escaping the chase will increase by at least 30%. But this thing is one of the necessary medicines to relieve the cold poison of the teacher, the phoenix bird is dead, and the chance of finding another phoenix bird is very small,..." Bai Yan ran rapidly while weighing the pros and cons of the current situation.
Hong Chu has actually not had much time teaching Bai Yan over the years, and it can even be said that it is very little. In some ways, Hong Chu is not a qualified master. But after weighing it for a long time, Bai Yan finally carefully put the phoenix bird's egg, which might have a slight effect on Hongchu's cold poison, into his arms again. Bai Yan decided to fight to the end with the killing god behind him like a maggot on the tarsal bone. One of the reasons why he made such a choice was Bai Yan's confidence in his ability to survive in a fierce place like Beast God Mountain, which was full of unknown dangers. In the Beast God Mountain, if the opponent does not have an absolute crushing advantage, Bai Yan has full confidence and believes that he must be the one who will survive to the end! Another factor that exists in Bai Yan's subconscious is simply because his mentor, one of the elders of the Medicine God Sect, Hong Chu, has a stubborn to the point of perverted temper, and protects the short! That's right, in Bai Yan's memory, the mentor Hong Chu is extremely protective, but the object of protection is only Bai Yan alone!
After running wildly for a few days again, when the dangerous aura behind him became more and more intense, Bai Yan, who was running wildly, suddenly stopped galloping, and his cold gaze fell on the dead and silent place in the far north corner of the Beast God Mountain. There was not the slightest birdsong, no beast roar, not even the slightest whistling wind, as if it had long been forgotten by any living creature in the whole continent, or that the whole continent had been abandoned there.
Feeling the clearer and clearer roar behind him, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Bai Yan's mouth, and then he turned and galloped towards the maddening silence of the far north.
After a few breaths, a black shadow appeared where Bai Yan had stopped, and a baby-sized monster stretched out its long tongue and swept around the air, and a pair of blood-red murderous eyes finally turned to the sleeping land in the far north. But it seemed to hesitate for a moment with fear, and finally a baby-like cry sounded, and the baby-sized puppet beast had chased in the direction of Bai Yan's escape. The incredible speed of its speed left a trail of afterimages in its path.
According to those bards who traveled to all corners of the Dream Mirror Continent, the Dream Mirror Continent should have been called the Dream Continent, and it was a place of meditation created by a great supernatural person in the dream realm during the flood period. It's a pity that the people who woke up from the dream left, leaving only some remnants of the fur supernatural powers that this great supernatural person had used in his dreams, which were obtained by the natives of the mainland, and they studied separately, and finally formed the large and small sect branches of the mainland.
Bai Yan has always treated these down-and-out bards with awe, and even became friends with one of them. But it was this seemingly helpless and destitute bard, dressed in tattered sackcloth and carrying a jar of cheap liquor, who flourished on the top of the Beast God Mountain, chanting poems for more than ten days for the many poisonous insects and beasts in this place, and finally drifted away surrounded by groups of fierce beasts. It's just that after he left, the personalities of the many fierce beasts in the Beast God Mountain became unprecedentedly irritable.
There is a mysterious and unpredictable place in the Dream Mirror Continent, which has been explored by the Tianjiao, elders, and even sect masters of various sects, either openly or covertly. As the mystery of the great murderous places was revealed, these once great murderous places were finally turned into powerful forbidden places within the sect for the elite trials within the sect. But there are still a few places of great murder that still maintain their own veil of mystery. These mysterious places all possess the power that makes the sect masters of each sect fear or even fall, and after many years, these areas have become familiar to the disciples of various sects who go out to practice, so as to ensure that they will not inadvertently break into these murderous places and die tragically in the process of training. The Sleeping Ground in the extreme north of the Beast God Mountain is one of them, and Hong Chu once entered the Void Realm of the Great Fierce Land eighteen years ago and brought back the infant Bai Yan. And Hong Chu immediately retreated to heal his wounds, relying on the profound background of the Medicine God Sect, he did not hesitate to spend countless elixirs to recuperate for eighteen years, and his cultivation could not be fully recovered, which shows that the place of great murder is by no means in vain. And the Sleeping Realm, which is as famous as the Void Realm, is Bai Yan's destination at this moment. He decided to leave the puppet beast behind him in the Sleeping Land, and whether he would be left in this famous murderous place forever? If his guess is correct, he can get away with it. If his guess is wrong, he is very likely to be buried in the Beast God Mountain like the puppet beast behind him.
