"I'm convinced...."

Hearing what Su Xing said, and then glancing at the attitudes of the surrounding celestials, the city lord knew that he was in a hurry.

He endured the itching and severe pain coming from the wound, and forced himself to calm down: "What do you want, a spirit stone or a life pill?" ”

"I'll talk about the spirit stone later."

Since the negative impact of the 'flesh mushroom' had not yet subsided, Su Xing's state at the moment was not optimistic.

He did his best to stay awake and not let the whispering sound get into his head, and probed the city lord, "Do you know how to deal with the negative effects of the 'flesh mushroom'?" ”

"Inexplicable."

It may be that he wants to send Su Xing away as soon as possible.

The city lord didn't think about it, so he replied truthfully: "The 'flesh and blood mushroom' itself has no negative effect, and the negative effects of the mushroom are actually the pollution of the 'spirit' of the indescribable creature. ”

"Pollution?" Su Xing was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean?" ”

"It's those whispers you hear, and that's the pollution of the 'spirit.'" The lord of the castle described: "That voice will always want to get into your head, and even control you. ”

According to common sense, an unspeakable creature is an existence that cannot be touched, touched, or communicated.

But this is not absolute.

Some foods, exercises, statues, and even monsters have the ability to help people 'communicate' with unspeakable creatures.

For example, the 'Shou' statue in Morotian.

Another example is the 'Crystal Mushroom' that feeds the entire inhabitants of Black City.

These derivatives that can be used to communicate the unspeakable can be broadly divided into two categories.

Among them, inanimate objects such as statues are called 'mediums'.

Living creatures such as mushrooms and monsters are called 'offspring'.

Furthermore.

In addition to the need for 'mediums' and 'offspring', human beings need to offer sacrifices if they want to 'communicate' with unspeakable creatures with the help of these.

For example, the 'Shou' statue needs to be sacrificed with human lifespan.

The 'Crystal Mushroom', on the other hand, requires the life and flesh of a living person as a sacrifice, and the 'Flesh and Blood Mushroom' can only take effect when it is spawned.

And after Su Xing swallowed the 'flesh mushroom', he met the two conditions of 'medium' and 'sacrifice' at the same time.

That's why he was polluted by the whispers of the Spirit.

in the hall.

The city lord continued: "Therefore, the reason why your physical fitness will be strengthened is actually to obtain a part of the power of the 'spirit', or it can also be said to be pollution. ”

Unspeakable creatures have powers beyond human comprehension.

Even the slightest bit of aura for monks and mortals is enough to make themselves extremely powerful.

Of course.

Going strong this way comes at a cost.

That is to be unspeakably polluted.

in the hall.

After listening to the city lord's explanation, Su Xing asked, "If the indescribable pollution gets worse and worse, what will be the final consequences?" ”

"I don't know."

The city lord replied, "Because in the Black City, apart from us celestials, very few monks and mortals can come into contact with the 'flesh and blood mushroom'. ”

Each indescribable has different abilities, and as a result, they pollute humans in different ways.

Su Xing continued: "Didn't you celestials also eat a large amount of 'flesh and blood mushrooms'? Why don't you have anything to do? ”

"I don't know that either."

Perhaps he was worried that his answer would anger Su Xing.

The city lord showed a flattering smile and quickly explained, "We celestials are born with no ability to cultivate, and we have no lifespan.... But at the same time, we won't be hurt by any spells, not even by any 'shy' monsters, including Shou Oni. ”

The so-called 'Tan' monsters are ghosts that have no entity and use special abilities to kill people.

"Isn't it just the Demon Immunity Physique...."

Hearing the city lord's answer, Su Xing guessed according to his own understanding: "So, it is because of your physique that you will not be polluted by the 'spirit'?" ”

"Yes."

The city lord nodded in response: "Although I don't know why, the indescribable creature of 'spirit' can't affect us celestials.... But it is precisely because of this that even if we swallow more 'flesh and blood mushrooms', our physical fitness will not improve much. ”

The more serious the pollution of the 'spirit' to a person, the more obvious the improvement of the person's physical fitness.

And if the celestials are immune to the pollution of the 'spirit', then the effect of the 'flesh mushroom' will naturally have little effect.

This is also the reason why the Celestial Brothers ate so many 'flesh and blood mushrooms' in one go, but they didn't see much increase in strength.

After all, the city lord of Heicheng and Su Xing had a hostile relationship, and what he said could not be fully believed.

This comes from the pollution of the 'spirit', and there may be a way to solve it.

In order to find out more information, and also to prevent the city lord from lying and deceiving himself, Su Xing said ambiguously: "Last question, what is under the ground of the Black City?" ”

"Underground?" The city lord said with a confused face: "I don't understand what you're talking about...."

"Humph!"

Su Xing didn't say much, just cut off the opponent's left leg with a sword, and said coldly: "Do you understand now?" ”

"Got it, got it!"

Although the heavenly physique is strong.

After swallowing a large amount of 'flesh and blood mushrooms', the severed arms and legs of the city lord will only be recovered in a few days.

But the pain caused by a broken arm and leg is completely unavoidable.

For a moment, the city lord's expression became even more distorted.

He endured severe pain and said: "We celestials are not allowed to go deep underground, this is the rule set by Heaven for us.... And we are not allowed to let anyone else go underground. ”

Su Xing didn't have any expression on his face, he just pointed his long sword at the other party and said fraudulently: "And!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The City Lord continued, "There are also those 'crystal mushrooms' outside the Black City, which also spread from the depths of the earth. ”

Those sparkling mushrooms, the derivatives of 'spirits', come from deep underground?

Hearing this secret, Su Xing's eyes showed a hint of deep thought.

He drew inferences from one case to another: "Since you celestials can't go underground, then the monks in the city who have conflicts with you should all run to the depths of the earth, right?" ”

"This...."

The city lord was uncertain: "Yes, yes, but whether these people are dead or not, then I don't know." ”

"Hmm.... Is there anything else you haven't told you about? ”

"It's really gone, I really don't know how to remove the negative impact of 'flesh mushroom'."

The city lord said in a sincere tone: "After all, we celestials will not have a negative effect if we swallow these mushrooms, so we don't need to know, you say, right?" ”

"Hmph,"

Su Xing sneered: "In order to prevent you from lying to me, I will check all the books and jade slips stored in the entire City Lord's Mansion, are you okay?" ”

"No problem! Just look! ”

At this time, people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat.

As long as Su Xing didn't make some excessive demands, the city lord of Heicheng almost agreed to it.

But that's not enough.

Su Xing picked off the storage bag on the city lord's waist with the tip of his sword, and said, "Let me check this storage bag too, no problem, right?" ”

"No.... No problem. The city lord agreed reluctantly.

In this way, there are secrets about the heavens and the entire black city, and Su Xing can see them at a glance.
