Chapter 241: Ghost Servant Village

A huge red sun hung high in the middle of the sky, shedding a soft warmth of sunlight, bringing some warmth and light to the entire underworld.

Many creatures in the underworld also began a new life under the light of this red sun. Qu Wuming pushed the Wufu hidden robe to the extreme, and his entire body was almost completely transparent, quietly hiding on the trunk of a big tree, looking at a strange one in front of him from a distance

"Village". A village is indeed a village, but it is not human beings who are active in the village. It was a group of humanoids about eight feet tall, with a dark complexion and a thin body.

Their torsos are just over a foot long, and the rest of their height is made up entirely of their slender arms, legs, and heads.

Known as Ghost Servants, they are one of the most common creatures in the Underworld. Before, I had only seen the image of the ghost servant on the "Encyclopedia of Creatures in the Underworld", but at this time, I saw it with my own eyes, but Qu Wuming was still shocked by the strange appearance of this creature.

The long, thin, slender, slender limbs, the thickest of the thighs, were no thicker than the arms of an ordinary man, like four hemp rods on top of the equally bony torso.

The head was even more peculiar, more than a foot long, without a neck, like a huge black jujube pit, standing between their shoulders, which were no more than a foot wide.

The ghost servant has only one eye, which is large and round, and grows

The "jujube pits" are in the middle of the place, while their ears, mouth, and nose are relatively small, and almost all of them are crowded around the eyes.

These ghost servants are different from the ordinary beasts and demons of the underworld, and although they have a strange appearance and are very different from the Terrans, their lifestyles have many similarities with the Terrans.

In the ghost servant village in front of Qu Wuming, all the buildings were simply built with trees unique to the underworld, and some kind of thatch-like roof was paved on them.

From afar, it looks like a tent with a spire. And in this village, such large and small

There were hundreds of "tents", scattered with each other, like stars holding the moon, and they guarded a huge building in the middle of the village—a structure that seemed to resemble a temple, and although it was also only one floor, its roof was more ordinary than the others

The "tent" is twice as tall and covers an ordinary area

More than ten times more than the number of "tents". In this village, Qu Wuming saw many interesting things from afar, such as several livestock pens that covered a large area, in which dozens of very strange-looking creatures were kept in pens like pigs and sheep, and a few ghost servants each carried a large basin and fed them some mushy things.

In another part of the village, there were a number of ghost servants who appeared to be women, sitting around a table made of large stone slabs, on which were placed many hides of wild beasts, and the female ghost servants were each holding long, thick bone needles, and they were sewing something with some laughter.

Some of the shorter ones, like young ghost servants, run and play in groups of three or five in the village, and from time to time they will attract reprimands and shouts from female ghost servants.

On the periphery of the village, there is a ring of tall walls made of trees and stones, about two zhang high, and every twenty zhang or so, there is a high lookout, and on each lookout, there are at least two male ghost servants armed with spears and bows and arrows who are vigilantly observing the movement outside the wall.

To Qu Wuming's surprise, a deep trench had been dug outside the walls of the village, filled with sharp spikes—the kind of stingers found on the dolphin's body.

Moreover, they also used the stinger on the wall—the outward-facing side was also filled with stingers, guarding the village like a wall of thorns.

Qu Wuming observed for a moment, satisfied his curiosity about the creature of the ghost servant, and quietly jumped off the tree, intending to continue his journey around the village.

Because Qu Wuming knew that the village of this ghost servant seemed to be weak and backward, but this was just the survival method of the weakest part of the creatures like ghost servants.

Just like the ordinary people in the human race, they had to form villages and report to the group to keep warm during the ancient ancestors, so as to resist the attacks of poisonous insects and beasts, so as to survive in the harsh environment.

And the same goes for ghost servants. In this village, including the ghost servants who stood guard on the lookout, they were only among the ghost servants

"Ordinary people" only. But in the middle of the village

In the "big house", there lived among the ghosts

"Cultivator". They are special beings in the group of ghost servants, and they can cultivate by absorbing the breath of the underworld, and Shou Yuan is also much longer than ordinary ghost servants.

According to the Encyclopedia of Creatures of the Underworld, he is the most powerful ghost servant known

The strength of the "cultivator" has even surpassed the ceiling of the combat power of the Ten Directions Realm, the peak of the refining period.

Such a ghost servant was made the king of ghost servants by the "Encyclopedia of Creatures in the Underworld". It's just that the Ghost Servant King, whose strength is already comparable to that of a cultivator in the Merge Dao Period, seems to only exist in the records, and at least in the course of the nearly ten appearances in the Underworld Realm, no one has mentioned that anyone has ever seen the record of the Ghost Servant King.

Despite this, when you encounter a ghost servant village, it is best to avoid it - it is said that in a village with more than 100 residents, the powerful ghost servant strength that really guards the village is at least equivalent to the cultivation of the god transformation period, and there may not be only one such powerful ghost servant!

Qu Wuming didn't want to cause trouble, so he quietly looked at it from a distance, and then wanted to leave quietly. But who knew that just when he had just jumped off the tree and just turned around and walked out, a fist-sized stone flew from a distance with a whistling eye, and smashed straight towards Qu Wuming!

The stone was extremely fast, and it flew over with the sound of the wind, and it was even more coincidental that it was still a white stone.

It was daytime in the underworld, and as soon as the stone appeared, it fell into the eyes of the two ghost servants on the lookout platform inside the wall.

And Qu Wuming, who was the target of the stone, only felt a little itchy with hatred - with Qu Wuming's eyesight, he naturally saw at a glance that there were several transparent holes in this stone, which is why it made a sound during flight.

Moreover, this stone was still enveloped by some special spell, and although it had not yet hit itself, he could already feel that the special power on it had firmly locked on him!

No matter who he attacked, he had only one goal. That is to make Qu Wuming forced to resist, and then expose himself.

If it were someone else, I was afraid that there seemed to be no choice but to resist and expose the body.

But Qu is nameless, but it is no one else. Especially when you get a new treasure

After the "falling star". I saw Qu Nameless's mind move,

"Falling Star" suddenly flew out of his storage ring, and then turned into an earthy yellow light shield, covering Qu Wuming inside.

In the ghost servant village, the two sharp-eyed ghost servant guards suddenly saw the strange situation here, one immediately bent his bow and arrows to this side, while the other raised a horn on his waist and whined.

"Sample, you actually dare to sneak up on me, wanting me to be exposed in front of the eyes of the ghost servant cultivators?" Qu Wuming snorted coldly in his heart,

"I'm going to see who's beating my mind!" I saw that the earthy yellow light shone brightly, and suddenly sank into the ground, as if it had never appeared, and disappeared without a trace.

The ghost guard with the bow and arrow suddenly lost its purpose, put down its bow and arrow in surprise, and leaned forward to look, but there was no more anything unusual in it—except for the white stone that missed in one shot.

And after the white stone hit the air, it did not stop, but crossed an arc in the air, went straight over the wall of the ghost servant village, and shot towards the lookout behind it!

The ghost guards with bows and arrows were so frightened that they turned and jumped off the lookout. And the guard who blew the horn next to him was not so lucky.

It was concentrating on blowing the trumpet, and its chest was instantly pierced by the stone, and its entire body was smashed upside down and flew out, and the whining horn suddenly stopped...... At this moment, in the middle of the village, three black shadows suddenly flew up, and it was actually three ghost servants who exuded a powerful aura jumped up, and in the blink of an eye, they had already flown over the wall of the village, and rushed straight in the direction where the white stone was flying.

At this time, Qu Wuming had already taken advantage of it

"Falling Star", with the method of earth escape, rushed to the direction where the white stone flew from a hundred feet. I have to say, this

The power of the "Falling Star", compared to the previous Wutu Orb, is not half a star. When I used the Earth Orb to escape from the earth before, I could only

About five zhang before I "looked" at the orb, it was pitch black and I couldn't find anything.

And this

"Seeing" is also different from seeing objects with the naked eye on the ground, it is more like magnifying the power of one's divine consciousness through the Earth Orb, so as to observe the positions that the power of the Divine Consciousness can detect, such as rocks, soil, or tree roots in front of you, such as whether there are metal objects in front of the Earth Orb that need to be avoided, and so on.

When the results of this observation come back to the mind, it is more like a special feeling, like the feeling in a very real dream.

You must know that when ordinary cultivators use earth retreat, the space that can be detected underground is only a few feet or two away.

Why is the Wutu Orb so famous in the Eastern Continent? Just the distance that it can observe is about five zhang, which is enough to make Qu Wuming invincible in the art of earth escape.

And at this time, the Wutu Orb is with

After the "Falling Stars" were combined into one, the distance that Qu Wuming could observe was expanded by nearly five or six times!

And in the case of Qu Wuming deliberately strengthening his strength, he can even do it in a short time

"See" the image from 50 feet away! Even if it is only a distance of twenty or thirty zhang under normal conditions, it is already an unattainable level for ordinary cultivators who practice the art of earth retreat!

This is also one of the reasons why, the cultivation world has existed for an unknown number of thousands of years, but there are still many underground veins, spiritual mines, and treasures that have not been discovered.

And

The benefit of the "Falling Star" is not only the increase in observation distance - the speed of its earth escape is also nearly three times faster than that of the Earth Orb!

What is the concept of the Earth Escape Technique, which is three times faster than the Earth Orb? If an ordinary cultivator's earth escape technique is compared to a three-year-old child walking briskly, then using the speed of the earth treasure bead earth escape, it is a ten-year-old boy running at a constant speed.

whereas

The speed of "Falling Star" is three times faster than that of this teenager! This kind of speed, although it still can't be compared with flying in the air, it is already unheard of and unseen.

At least in the Eastern Regions Continent, Qu Wuming had never heard of anyone who could have such a high earth escape speed! At this time, Qu Wuming was bent on finding out who threw the stone just now, and after drilling into the ground, he immediately put the exploration distance to the maximum, and at the same time, because

The "field of vision" became extremely wide, enough for him to avoid many debris buried in the ground in advance, and in the case of full speed, almost breathing, Qu Wuming had already found a figure hidden between two boulders more than a hundred zhang away......

"It's you!" When Qu Wuming saw that figure, he couldn't help but be surprised......
