Chapter 107: Phantom Gu
"Bugs?"
Shen Tianlu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Chengzhou in front of him with an inquiring gaze, as if he was asking about something.
However, Li Chengzhou did shake his head and responded: "Although my Jiuxian Mountain is located in a high mountain area and there are many insects, I have never heard of insects that can control people's bodies. ”
When Yang Chen heard this, he smiled and waved his hand and said: "Don't be in a hurry to deny it first, this is what I have seen with my own eyes, and I won't talk nonsense here, besides, this insect must be the native of Nine Immortal Mountain?" ”
Yang Chen's words are all said about this, if everyone doesn't understand anymore, they will be killed by a head-butt.
"This insect is in the shape of a round ball, with six long barbed claws under its body, I wonder if the fairy lord has the impression of this kind of bug?"
Yang Chen asked Shen Tianlu a question, after all, there are many ancient books in the fairy world, if there are people who like to read a lot of books on weekdays, they should have seen the records of this kind of thing, of course, if the ancient books of the fairy world are not recorded, I am afraid that no one on this continent will be able to know what this insect is.
Shen Tianlu shook his head when he heard this, he didn't read many ancient books in the fairy world, and his time on weekdays was spent on cultivation, and he was even more lazy to turn over these things left over from history.
This thing!
Yang Chen shook his head a little helplessly, and scolded in his heart, this Shen Tianlu is obviously guarding a golden mountain, but he doesn't cherish it, but he throws it aside like garbage, which can be described as a tyrannical thing.
You must know that sometimes the things recorded in ancient books are more conducive to cultivation, after all, it is the experience left by the predecessors, and it is much faster than crossing the river by feeling the stones by yourself.
But now that many people have adapted to this fast-paced life, there are few people who can calm down and read these ancient books.
However, before Yang Chen could continue to speak, Li Chengzhou suddenly spoke: "I seem to have a little impression of things. ”
"Oh?"
When everyone heard this, their eyes all fell on Li Chengzhou.
And Yang Chen also nodded with satisfaction, Li Chengzhou has been very steady since he was young, and it is reasonable to be able to calm down and read ancient books.
And this is also the reason why Yang Chen was willing to teach him three moves and two styles.
After thinking about it, I heard Li Chengzhou say slowly: "I remember that there was a record in ancient books that this kind of insect is called Phantom Gu, and it often haunts the Southern Regions, but whether it is the one that Yang Gongzi said is unknown." ”
Speaking of this, Li Chengzhou paused for a moment, as if he was reminiscing, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "However, the ability of this insect is to be able to control the corpse of the deceased to fight, so it is also called a corpse eater." ”
"But if I'm not mistaken, this bug was extinct a thousand years ago, so why is it still here?"
Hearing Li Chengzhou's words, Yang Chen and the others also fell into thought, if according to Li Chengzhou's speculation, a thousand years ago was the time of the battle between the immortal realm and the underworld, and the phantom Gu disappeared at the same time.
At that time, because of the outbreak of war between the immortal and underworld worlds, all the eyes of the people in the world were focused here, and they didn't stay too long on the disappearance of the phantom Gu, so ...... The disappearance of the phantom Gu will have such an inextricable relationship with the underworld?
Thinking of this, Yang Chen's gaze looked at Shen Zhixia again, who was the one he met at the foot of the mountain before? Who is this person in front of you?
Gradually, Yang Chen felt that the fragments in his mind were somewhat clearer, but he was still a little unsatisfied to meet the conditions for patchwork.
"But if it's really an illusory Gu, things are a little troublesome, it is recorded in ancient books that although the attack power of the phantom Gu is not strong, its reproductive ability is unprecedentedly strong, and the mother can give birth to a hundred larvae almost every hour."
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed one after another, if it was really as Li Chengzhou said, it had been three months since the incident happened, two thousand four hundred a day, and two hundred thousand in three months!
That's a huge number!
And those zombies under the mountain are only 100,000, which means that at least there are still such phantom Gu who have not found a host, or hiding in the zombie corpses, or hiding in the center of those damn flower stamens on the other side, waiting for the gate of the fairy world to be breached, and then attack in a big way!
At that time, the entire immortal realm will fall.
"Is there any record of what these things are afraid of?" Yang Chen hurriedly spoke.
Li Chengzhou thought for a moment, and then nodded, but his face was still ugly.
"Afraid of the sun!"
Hearing this answer, Yang Chen didn't know that it was okay, and the faces of the others were suddenly as ugly as eating.
tomato
"How?"
Yang Chen looked at Shen Tianlu with some suspicion, but the latter showed him a wry smile.
"Yang Gongzi doesn't know, since the moment the blood moon rose three months ago, there has been no daylight in the entire immortal capital, and it is shrouded in darkness all day long, and as for the sun, it is even more impossible."
Hearing this, Yang Chen was still taken aback, it stands to reason that no one can stop the alternation of day and night, not even the Emperor Zun realm he reached at the beginning, let alone Shen Zhixia.
And Shen Zhixia's strength, Yang Chen has also made guesses, thinking that it should also be within the realm of the Cave Void, of course, it is stronger than Shen Tianlu.
Otherwise, Shen Tianlu would have led the army out a long time ago, so he wouldn't have waited here bitterly.
Looking at the people who fell silent, Yang Chen continued to speak: "You don't have to worry too much, since this illusion Gu has a method of restraint, it is not difficult to deal with over there, but we still have to study the matter of sunlight, as for the matter of blocking the alternation of day and night, I am afraid that no one in this continent can do it except for the Heavenly Dao." ”
After speaking, Yang Chen hurriedly spoke: "The combat effectiveness of these zombies is not high, after all, they are just ordinary people in their lifetime, although there are many of them, it is not very difficult to deal with them. ”
"And what worries me a little is..."
Hearing Yang Chen say this, everyone's eyes widened, waiting for Yang Chen to continue.
Seeing this, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh, and then said it slowly.
"When I was two-thirds of the way up the ladder, I encountered the Heaven Defeat Sword Sect."
"What?!"
Hearing Yang Chen's words, everyone's eyes widened, especially Shen Tianlu, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets, after all, Yue Shan was sent out by him temporarily, and he didn't tell everyone, firstly, to avoid causing panic, and secondly, there were some special reasons......
"He, is he okay?"
Shen Tianlu's voice trembled a little, the strongest in Nine Immortal Mountain may not be the four great sword sects, but the one with the most strength and the strongest execution is none of the four of them.
Li Chengzhou, Yue Shan, Sun Wu, plus Nan Wentian are the four major sword sects of Killing the Sky, Defeating the Sky, Qingtian, and Covering the Sky, respectively, they can be regarded as the guardians of the Nine Immortal Mountain.
There are even some places where the statues of the four great sword sects have begun to be made for worship, in order to seek peace and blessings.
Yang Chen sighed, shook his head, and finally told Shen Tianlu the truth.
"The Yueshan Sect has fallen."
Hearing this, Shen Tianlu's pupils shrank suddenly, you must know that the strength of the four people is all in the incarnation realm, and it is irreversible to lose one of them at will.
"Alas!"
In the crowd, I don't know who sighed, and there was a trace of disappointment in everyone's eyes when they looked at Shen Tianlu.
When the old immortal lord was alive, the fairy world was so brilliant!
But the old immortal lord died suddenly after the great battle with the underworld, and the reason has not yet been clarified.
Shen Tianlu seemed to be out of reach of everyone's emotions, coughed dryly twice and then comforted: "The Yueshan Sect has made a deep contribution to the Immortal Realm, and this Immortal Lord will take back his body at all costs and bury him in the Immortal Mound." ”
You must know that the immortal mounds in the fairy world are the destination that many immortals want to be buried after death, and ordinary immortals are not qualified to be buried there at all, because those buried there are immortal masters of the past dynasties.
And where Yue Shan can be buried, it can be regarded as a worthy death.
Yang Chen was not interested in listening to their family, after all, he always felt that something was wrong, and as for what was wrong, he couldn't say it for the time being.
After speaking, Yang Chen said to Shen Tianlu: "That's probably how I went up the mountain, I don't know what the immortal lord thinks?" ”
Shen Tianlu shook his head helplessly when he heard this, he couldn't analyze anything from Yang Chen's experience, and he didn't extract any useful information, so he had to classify Yang Chen as the one with better luck, and he didn't meet the main owner.
"Since Yang Gongzi has come to my immortal realm, and the mountain is very dangerous, it is better to live in my Nine Immortal Palace temporarily, and when the danger is lifted, it is not too late to go down the mountain."
Shen Tianlu smiled at Yang Chen and said what he thought.
Yang Chen naturally nodded in agreement when he heard this, after all, the purpose of his coming here was to find out what happened to Shen Zhixia.
Besides, this competition is meant to compete to see who can survive to the end, so there is plenty of time, and there is no conflict in living here.
Of course, he also knew that Shen Tianlu definitely didn't have any good intentions to keep him, or that he hadn't won Shen Tianlu's trust yet, and that he was just keeping him for better monitoring.
For his little Jiujiu, Yang Chen just saw through it and didn't say anything, and after a few polite words to Shen Tianlu, he was taken by Li Chengzhou into the guest room of the Nine Immortals Palace.
After Li Chengzhou sent Yang Chen into the guest room, he didn't stay too long, glanced at Yang Chen, and then turned around and left directly.
I don't know how long it took, a murky sound pulled Yang Chen back to reality from his cultivation, and Li Chengzhou had already appeared in front of Yang Chen at some point.
"Brother Yang, it was a little inconvenient to speak before, and according to Shen Tianlu's suspicious personality, he would definitely arrange someone to eavesdrop outside the door, so ......"
"It doesn't matter."
Yang Chen nodded, and then spoke: "After you left today, I set up a formation in this room, and now when I speak, only the two of us can hear it, even Shen Tianlu can't overhear our conversation at all." ”
Hearing Yang Chen say this, Li Chengzhou relieved his heart, and while secretly sighing in his heart that Yang Chen's formation attainments were profound, he hurriedly said respectfully: "Thanks to the cultivation method given by Brother Yang back then, I can have today's achievements, and I have always wanted to thank you in person since then, but I have lost your news." ”
"Hmm." Yang Chen nodded, noncommittal.
However, he didn't mention the matter of his rebirth to Li Chengzhou, after all, the fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better, in his previous life, he had established a lot of powerful enemies.
Once the other party learns the news and comes to the door, then it will be difficult for him to die.
