Wang An supported his five fingers, and after a few sounds, the cloth was torn, and the robe on the person's body immediately cracked, turning into dozens of pieces, revealing his body.

Directly on his body, there were scars stitched one after another, and a piece of his limbs, abdomen, and chest was missing, which was knocked off by Wang An's palm, and the flesh strands were melting in the gaps. The man's body was as if he had undergone a major surgical operation.

"This is, the ancients began to conduct surgical research?"

Wang An didn't slap this person to death directly with one palm just now, just because he found a strange aura on his body.

The man struggled constantly, and thick blood continued to flow from the wound. He struggled less and less.

Wang An's palm just now had already broken this person's heart. Although that palm did not urge Wuji's true qi, it was also extraordinary.

The man's mouth was still closed, making strange noises, but not a single clear word was uttered.

A moment later, Wang An pressed it with one hand, and there was a crisp click, and all the bones in this person's body were shattered, and as soon as Wang An let go, his whole person immediately collapsed on the ground, like a puddle of mud.

Wang An walked around the alchemy room and found that there were two passages leading to other places, he chose one of them, and walked more than three meters through a door in front of him.

With a palm of his hand, the door was directly broken open by him.

It was a house, not dark, with light shining in from above, sprinkled more evenly through a special device, with several flower pots and several jars more than a meter and a half high on the table.

When I got closer, I saw that there was soil in the pot, and there were dry plants, as well as in the jar next to it.

"Farming here?"

Wang An looked at the flower pot and looked around, there was a glorious bluestone platform on the side, which was the same as the one in the alchemy room outside.

The layout and furnishings here look very ordinary, but Wang An feels a little strange.

Sensing that there was no living creature in this room, he was about to leave, but suddenly stopped, turned to look at the flower pot, raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and with a crisp click, the flower pot shattered in response, and the broken fragments fell on the table, and the dirt inside spilled down.

Is that?

After seeing the contents inside, Wang An was stunned for a moment.

A skull, the skull of a human, looms visible behind the scattered soil.

Wang An walked closer, waved his palm, the mud and rustled down, and after leaning less, a complete skull appeared and fell in front of Wang An's eyes, there was a hole at the top of the skull, and there were cracks around the skull. The dry thing grew out of the hole.

"Raising plants with human heads?"

He then smashed a flower pot next to him, and there was still a human head skeleton inside, and three flower pots in succession, all of which contained human heads and skeletons.

These skulls are not supposed to be skeletons when they are placed in the pot, but rather a full human head, and may even have just been removed from a living person.

The skull is first broken, and then the seeds of the plant are planted into the brain, in which the seeds germinate, grow, and absorb the brain marrow in the process.

Then he waved his hand, and with a snap, the jar that was more than one and a half meters next to it shattered, and after the soil inside was sprinkled, a skeleton was revealed, a whole skeleton, and each bone of this skeleton was wrapped around the roots of plants, densely packed, and the human head was numb when he looked at it.

"A whole skeleton, is it planted using a human corpse, no, it is possible to be planted with a living person!" Wang An thought of a possibility.

The seeds are planted in the body of a living person, and then his body is sealed in this jar, and his body is used as nourishment, supplemented with a small amount of soil, to grow plants.

"Human experiments, so cruel, this is what immortals do?"

Wang An looked at the skulls and skeletons in front of him.

"What are they planting?"

Well, Wang An turned his head to look aside.

"Anyone else?"

Just now he heard footsteps, very slight footsteps, faintly like a cat.

Brush, Wang An disappeared, and the next moment he appeared in the outside room and saw the man standing at the door.

Wearing a Taoist robe, he looked to be in his fifties, but the snake-like scales on the left side of his face took up one-third of the entire face, which looked very strange.

The aura he exuded was quite powerful.

"Test subjects?"

"You're from outside the island?" Seeing Wang An suddenly appear in front of his eyes, this person was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

His voice was a strange one, hoarse but heavily nasal, as if his throat had been hurt.

"Such a powerful aura, he will definitely like it." The man muttered to himself.

"How long have you been on this island?" Wang An stared at the person in front of him, the true qi in his body had already drifted into the air around him, communicating with the nearby energy, and he had already locked the person in front of him.

"I can't remember how long it has been, two hundred years, three hundred years, or even longer."

"How many people are there on this island?"

"There are a few people, I don't know, I'm only at the bottom of the mountain, some are on the mountain, I haven't been up for a long time." As he said this, the man looked up at the mist-shrouded mountains in the distance.

"What's going on with the Danfang here?"

"The Danfang is naturally a place for alchemy."

"What kind of alchemy do they use?" Wang An then asked.

"Well, they used a lot of things, at first they were some precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, and then they began to try some other things, such as snakes, fish, Jiao, monkeys, and then they began to try to use people for alchemy."

For Wang An's questions, this person answered them all and was very cooperative.

"Alchemy for immortality?"

"Nature."

"What about you, why did you become the way you are?"

The atmosphere of the conversation between the two of them is very harmonious, asking and answering, looking like two old friends who haven't seen each other for many years.

"I, naturally, want to live longer." The man stroked his face as he spoke, and his face turned hideous when his palm touched the scales.

"They're liars, damn liars, they deceived me and turned me into a monster!" The man's tone became rapid.

"But what they didn't expect was that most of them were dead, but I was still alive."

"How did they die?"

"Regurgitation, the regurgitation of the pill, they thought they had refined a perfect pill, but unfortunately, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, the pill seemed to be perfect, but in fact it was deadly.

After taking the pill, they began to have problems with their bodies one after another. One death after another, a very painful death, the skin of a baby withered like an old tree, the hair withered like a weed in winter, and then the body festered, like carrion thrown into a stinking ditch. Eventually, one by one the bodies festered and died, with very few exceptions. ”

"Anyone is still alive?"

"Yes, in the mountains." The man raised his hand and pointed to the mist-shrouded peaks.

"They successfully used the power of the Divine Tree to contain the rout of their bodies, but they were restricted because of this, and they could not leave the Divine Tree and had to stay on the mountain."

"The Sacred Tree? What is the Sacred Tree? Hearing this, Wang An was slightly stunned.

"An ancient tree, a date tree, maybe it has grown there since the moment this island appeared, it can bear fiery red fruit, eat one with a warm body, and it can heal wounds."
