Chapter 21 Hiding from the World
The next morning, the sun was faint and the morning breeze was blowing.
Before the villagers gathered at the altar, they were about to throw poison Gu into the cave again.
Shi Hu first opened the lid of the stone cave and stretched out his head to peek inside.
At this time, the spiritual power in the cave had been almost absorbed, the ground was covered with the remains of poison, the cat ghost was staying in the corner, and there was another new spirit Gu lying on the other side of the cave.
It looks like a yin snake, but it seems to be too big, and it can be said to be a small python.
In terms of quantity, this Dou Gu can be said to be quite successful, and a new Spirit Gu was born in just one day.
However, quantity is not Shi Hu's pursuit, what he wants is the strongest Red Gu, and it is not okay for the spiritual power to let the other Spirit Gu take away.
However, you can't directly kill other spirit Gus, Dou Gu is to have the process of "fighting", and too much intervention from the outside world will backfire.
He didn't know that Luo Hou had completely broken this law yesterday, and the little snake was directly "fed" by Luo Hou.
Shi Hu pondered for a moment, took out a small bottle from his arms, and poured the liquid medicine inside on the head of the cat ghost.
This is a secret medicine mixed with his blood, which will make the cat ghost even more violent, as long as the cat ghost has the desire to attack, that new spirit Gu will definitely not be able to escape the fate of being devoured.
Subsequently, more poisonous Gu were thrown into the stone cave by the villagers, and by praying for the spirit, the spiritual power in the cave was also filled again.
This prayer also lasted from morning to noon, and many people's faces turned pale, and even fainted directly.
Shi Xiu, a Gu master of the Shi family, hesitated for a moment and said to Shi Hu, "Everyone, go on like this...... The clansmen's bodies will not be able to support it. ”
The spiritual power invested by the villagers of this Hundred Gu Dou has far exceeded that of the previous Dou Gu, and has even reached the level of depletion of vitality.
Shi Hu's face turned cold, he glared at him fiercely, and said gloomily: "If the red Gu can't be successful, never stop!" ”
"Yes...... Got it. ”
Shi Xiu was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
In the crowd praying for the spirit, Shi Qing secretly opened one eye and glanced at the altar above.
Yesterday evening, for some reason, a lot of spiritual power suddenly appeared in her body.
According to the knowledge she had learned, she also knew that this was after the spirit Gu was promoted, and she was feeding back part of her spiritual power to her master.
Though I feel unbelievable, I ...... Could it be that the Yin Snake Gu is still alive? And became a spirit Gu?
Now in front of the altar, she finally sensed that there was a presence connected to her own sense in the stone cave, and confirmed her guess.
I'm very happy, but I'm sorry.
She knew that all the Gu in the stone cave were going to be eaten by the cat ghost, and her spirit Gu was destined to never come out alive.
……
Inside the stone cave, Luo Hou crawled out of the mouth of the little snake, he stretched his body, greedily absorbing the spiritual power in the air.
Is it already the second day of Dou Gu?
The cat ghost was driven into a frenzy by the drug, and let out a terrible growl, wanting to attack.
But he was directly pressed to the ground by Luo Hou's tentacle, struggling to get up, and the Heart Devouring Spell didn't work, leaving only impotent rage.
Luo Hou stretched out his tentacles and devoured the poisonous insects around him, recovering the fragments of his own body in their bodies one by one.
The size of the body quickly became larger, and the body was like a whirlpool, frantically devouring the surrounding spiritual power.
The red light on the fragments also gradually disappeared, which meant that the curse suffered before was slowly being worn away by the spiritual power.
The innate spiritual power of these Gu clans was extremely beneficial to the spirit Gu, after absorbing most of the spiritual power in the stone cave, Luo Hou not only removed the curse and recovered all the spiritual power, but even felt that he had a tendency to be promoted to the sixth turn.
However, if he is promoted directly, he will inevitably be exposed, and he must find a way to cover it up.
Luo Hou glanced at the cat ghost and felt that he could use it and Shi Hu's induction.
In front of the altar, Shi Hu's face was gloomy.
Now that the time has reached the afternoon, providing so much spiritual power, according to previous records, the average spirit Gu has already risen two or three times, and the cat ghost has not even shown signs of promotion, and has only risen once since yesterday.
Is the potential really insufficient? Isn't it the material for a red-rank spirit Gu?
At that moment, a blue cloud appeared in the sky.
Shi Hu's face relaxed, and he could feel a spiritual power feeding back from the cat ghost, and the cat ghost was finally promoted again, reaching the fifth turn.
"This promotion is really a bit slow, and this Qingyun, why does it feel that the area is a little too big?"
Shi Hu looked up suspiciously, feeling that this Qingyun vision was more than twice as large as he expected.
"Shi Xiu, what do you think?"
Shi Hu pondered for a moment and asked another Gu master of the Shi family, "Why is this Qingyun so big?" ”
"Uh......"
Shi Xiu's face was embarrassed, and he pondered for a while before he hesitated and said, "According to the classics, Qingyun is the product of the poisonous gas and spiritual power generated in the spirit Gu's body, and Qingyun is ...... It means that there is a lot of poisonous gas and spiritual power, which should be a good thing, indicating that the spirit Gu is powerful, which may also be the reason why everyone's lord's spirit Gu needs more spiritual power to advance. ”
Shi Hu nodded, in fact, he also thought so in his heart:
"I've also heard some legends about similar things, when a spirit Gu with great potential is promoted, it does need more spiritual power, and the vision will be a little bigger. But I didn't expect it to be so big, my cat ghost has so much potential......"
It was only now that he finally showed a hint of joy.
Shi Xiu also said respectfully: "Congratulations to everyone, you don't have to worry about it at all, even if it costs a little more, it is worth it to get an exceptionally powerful Red Rank Spirit Gu." ”
Shi Hu smiled and touched his chin, "Hehehe...... Things can't be determined yet, maybe it was just an accident, and we'll see how it happens when we get promoted next time. ”
He said so, but he had actually turned his worries into joy.
His ambitions are lofty, and just a red-rank spirit Gu can't satisfy him, so he will try his best to seek the Gu King.
Now it seems that the natal cat ghost can not only be promoted to the Red Gu, but even has the potential of the Gu King, how can he not be overjoyed?
Inside the cave.
Luo Hou's sixth spirit pattern was completely stabilized, and the powerful spirit pressure swept in all directions, crushing all the poisonous insect remains on the ground.
The cat ghosts on the opposite side, who had also just been promoted, all let out a scream, were forced to take two steps back, and hid in the corner, looking at them with frightened eyes.
It was obviously promoted to the fifth turn and improved its strength, but it felt that the gap between its spiritual power and Luo Hou was getting bigger and bigger, and it didn't dare to resist a little more.
It's a pity that it can't convey this complex emotion to Shi Hu, and the induction between the spirit Gu and the master has not yet reached the point where it can know both emotions and mental activities, otherwise there wouldn't be so many things like the spirit Gu backlashing in.
Luo Monkey stretched his tentacles comfortably.
After such a long time, no one has come to check, and it seems that he has successfully deceived those Gu masters.
He and the cat ghost were promoted at the same time, and the Qingyun vision coincided, and was mistaken by Shi Hu for a trait with great potential for the cat ghost.
What a beautiful misunderstanding.
