Chapter 106: The Demon Vine is Reborn
I saw layers of corpses floating in the pool, looking at the styles of their clothes, from a long time ago to the present, they should all be monks. The pool was not water, but an oil-like liquid, in which the corpses were soaked, and the corpses shrunk badly, as if they had been drained of blood, and were flaccid and swollen from the long soaking in the oil-like liquid.
The vast pool was filled with hundreds of corpses, huddled together and covering the entire surface of the pool.
And Xie Yun noticed that the freshest corpse among them was the ghost Daoist who had one of his arms cut off. He had obviously been dead for a while, but the expression on his face was one of a strange smile, as if he was going through something most satisfying before he died.
Xie Yun used his divine thoughts to probe the pool, but the viscous liquid in the pool seemed to have an effect of blocking his divine sense, and Xie Yun's divine consciousness could not penetrate at all.
At this moment, he saw that the corpse of the Ghost Daoist suddenly moved, and Xie Yun was almost about to release a flying sword to assassinate him, but in an instant, he saw clearly that something that seemed to be a very thin tube was being pulled out of the head of the Ghost Daoist and quickly sank under the pool.
"What kind of person!" Xie Yun shouted sharply, "If you dare to use illusion to yin me, don't you dare to show your face?"
And there was still no response under the pool, and a more powerful illusion was being cast, Xie Yun only felt that his consciousness was blurred for a while, and he was almost about to enter the illusion again.
He hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue, and a pain passed from the tip of his tongue, and his head suddenly cleared up a lot.
Murderous intent surged in his eyes, and his whole body was full of vitality. A giant hand formed by the condensation of Yuan Qi appeared in front of Xie Yun, and the giant hand grabbed towards the pool. Immediately grabbed more than a dozen corpses and threw them out of the pool. The body landed on the stone floor outside the pool.
After going back and forth like this a few more times, there were many fewer corpses floating on the water, Xie Yun hurriedly looked towards the pool, only to see a gray shadow quickly burrowing into the bottom of the pool, and the bottom of the pool seemed to be very deep, dark, and it was not clear to see.
The dark bottom of the pool didn't know if there was any danger, and Xie Yun didn't dare to go down easily. When he was in a dilemma, Xianshu said, "This water is not extraordinary. It is the holy water of Tianyi, and in the illusion I said that there are good things waiting for you outside, and this is one of them. ”
Xie Yun showed a shocked expression: "What?! God, you, you won't let me drink this corpse water, will you? I can tell you, I won't drink this thing if you kill me!"
"What kind of corpse water, this is Tianyi Holy Water!" Xianshu emphasized, "What are you kid thinking, you drink this water and it won't be of much use to your cultivation, how can I waste it on you." ”
"What do you mean......." Xie Yun suppressed the disgusting feeling in his heart, "If this water is good for my cultivation." You're going to let me drink it?"
"Don't digress. Xianshu didn't intend to mess with Xie Yunhu, "This day, a holy water is reserved for your spiritual root." ”
"What?" Xie Yun didn't react at once, "What's the matter with my roots?"
"Idiot!" Xianshu scolded angrily, "not your roots. It's your spiritual root!"
"Oh, Linggen, Linggen. Xie Yun then remembered. Didn't he get the spiritual root of the magic vine in the cave in the southern Xinjiang, and that thing has always been in the treasure bag. If the immortal book didn't talk about it, he would have forgotten about it.
"What's the use of using that spiritual root?" Xie Yun asked again.
The immortal book explained: "You put the spiritual root into this heavenly holy water. The Spirit Root will absorb the Heavenly One Holy Water to grow quickly, and at the same time, it is also used as a bait to catch the mirage beast underneath the water. ”
"Mirage? I dared to be in love for a long time, and the illusion master I always thought was a demon beast. ”
"Don't underestimate this kind of demon beast," Xianshu said, "This kind of demon beast is extremely rare, its characteristics are also extremely powerful, and it is born with the ability to use powerful illusions, it is estimated that this mirage beast is the guardian beast of this place." Okay, I'll tell you later, let's put the root in the pool now, but you have to watch and don't let the mirage swallow it. ”
At that moment, Xie Yun took out the spiritual root from the treasure bag according to what the immortal book said, this spiritual root was originally taken by himself for most of the healing, and now only a small part of the length of his finger remains, looking at this small point, Xie Yun doesn't know how much it will change. Xie Yun tied a thread to the spiritual root, and then slowly put the spiritual root into the Tianyi Holy Water.
"I haven't fished since I was a child, so I don't know if I can catch a mirage this time. Xie Yun muttered to himself, staring cautiously at the movement in the pool.
I saw that the spiritual root was slowly immersed in the Tianyi holy water, and there was no change at first, just when Xie Yun was puzzled, he saw that the spiritual root suddenly shone brightly, and the endless Tianyi holy water was sucked into the spiritual root, and the spiritual root began to grow longer and longer, and it had returned to its original appearance of about a foot in the back, and with the continuous growth of the spiritual root, the green magic vine also began to grow from the spiritual root, first growing russet vines, and then green leaves began to grow on the vines, and even a few small white flowers grew.
The magic vine soon spread over the surface of the pool like a lush water hyacinth.
"What's going on?" Xie Yun was puzzled, the thin thread in his hand had already broken with the continuous growth of the spiritual root.
There was a hint of excitement in the voice of the immortal book: "It seems that the Tianyi Holy Water really has a miraculous effect on the spiritual root, how many years does it take for the magic vine to grow, but it can only grow in a short period of time in the Tianyi Holy Water, it is really amazing! Tianyi Holy Water is worthy of its name!"
Xie Yun said angrily: "It turns out that you don't know what will happen!"
"Hurry up and take care of the spiritual root!" Xianshu hurriedly admonished, "That mirage is up!"
Xie Yun hurriedly used his divine sense to investigate, but his divine sense still couldn't penetrate the Tianyi Holy Water, and his vision was covered by the demon vines that covered the water, and he really couldn't see the mirage. At the same time, he was also wondering in his heart: If the immortal book can actually find mirages, how powerful should this old guy's divine sense be?
Not only was Xie Yun unable to see the mirage, but even the spiritual root was completely invisible, and when he was in a hurry, the demon vines that suddenly floated all over the water suddenly retracted, like countless writhing water snakes, one after another burrowed into the water, and quickly extended in a certain direction.
"This is the mirage beast that has begun to eat the spirit root, and the magic vine is protecting itself!" "Xianshu shouted, "Quickly protect the spirit root, otherwise such a precious thing will be eaten by the mirage, and I will definitely be finished with you!"
Xie Yun hurriedly stretched out his hand, grabbed a constantly writhing magic vine, and then grabbed the magic vine and ran back, with Xie Yun's huge force, he saw a large entangled demon vine being lifted out of the pool by Xie Yun, the magic vine seemed to be wrapped around this gray-white creature, and the demon vine was lifted out of the pool with Xie Yun.
Xie Yun rushed over, his hands kept tearing the entangled demon vines, and some of the demon vines were wrapped around Xie Yun and wrapped around Xie Yun's body, but Xie Yun was not worried at all, these demon vines had not yet fully grown, not to mention that his flesh was already very powerful, and he was not afraid of these demon vines at all, what he was worried about now was whether the mirage beast would have a spiritual root to eat.
Countless demon vines were torn off by Xie Yun one by one, thrown away like straw, and as the demon vines were constantly torn off, soon a crumpled gray-white flesh finally appeared in the center of the entangled demon vines.
Xie Yun was about to take a good look at the appearance of the mirage, when he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and when he looked down, he saw that a very thin tube had been pierced in his chest at some point.
This was Xie Yun's first thought, and then he hurriedly checked to see if he was injured. Fortunately, the thin tube only punctured the skin and did not penetrate deeply. The blow to the pipe did no harm, and he hurriedly retracted.
This thing is estimated to be more powerful than a spirit weapon! Xie Yun thought to himself, his current physical body was already very strong, and ordinary spirit weapons could not hurt himself at all, and this tube could actually pierce his own skin, and its sharpness was indeed much more powerful than that of ordinary spirit weapons.
He was actually attacked by the mirage, Xie Yun was extremely angry in his heart, he grabbed the gray-white flesh and lifted the mirage beast directly out of the demon vine.
The proposed mirage kept struggling in Xie Yun's hands, making a sizzling cry. Only then did Xie Yun see the appearance of the mirage clearly.
The mirage seemed to be very old, and it was unknown how long it had lived in this pool, the whole mirage was like a large mass of grayish rotten flesh, the size of a large basin of water, and the flabby and crumpled back was covered with countless tiny spots, and the mirage's abdomen was covered with dozens of dense eyes, and its mouth full of fine fangs, and the tiny tubes protruded from the mirage's mouth.
As soon as he looked at those eyes, Xie Yun felt dizzy, and he hurriedly used his eyes to see through the illusion and stabilize his mind at the same time. Seeing that the illusion was useless, he stretched out the pipe in his mouth again and wanted to attack Xie Yun.
Xie Yun just turned the mirage in his hand and turned its back towards him, so that he could avoid seeing the mirage's eyes and prevent the tube in its mouth from piercing.
The mirage writhed and struggled in Xie Yun's hands, although it had a lot of strength, it was not as big as Xie Yun, and it was held in Xie Yun's hands.
The mirage seemed to be very dependent on Tianyi Holy Water, and saw that its strength in struggling became smaller and smaller, and its back, which was still wet, began to dry and crack.
"Without Tianyi Holy Water, it can't live. Xianshu said, "It has lived for too long, and it should have died a long time ago, but thanks to the Tianyi Holy Water, it has been able to survive all the time, and it has also used illusions to confuse countless monks to come here, so that it can suck essence blood to nourish itself." ”
Looking at the mirage that was slowly drying in his hands, Xie Yun said: "It seems that this thing is unlucky, it met us, otherwise maybe it can live a few more days." (To be continued......)
