Chapter Twenty-Three: The Mysterious Murderous Land

In the primeval jungle, shrubs and thorns are everywhere, the forest is towering, the vitality is extremely vigorous, and occasionally there will be birds and beasts passing through, but also angry constantly.

On this day, Murong Jiu came to a place.

The shrubs and weeds here have long since withered, and the thick primeval trees have long been cut off from life, and there is no green in a radius of several hundred meters. A faint mist filled the forest, and a dilapidated building loomed in the middle.

In such an abnormal place, Murong Jiu's heart suddenly trembled, and he didn't dare to move forward.

Sizzle~~ A python nearly ten meters long, it crawled at a speed like lightning, quickly chasing a colorful clouded leopard, rushing to the mysterious place.

The ten-meter-long cyan python is about the thickness of a bucket, it swallows snake letters, bares venomous fangs, and a pair of snake eyes scatter fierce colors. The colorful clouded leopard is only three feet long, and the spotted pattern covers the surface of the body, and it runs extremely fast, but there is a strange glance on its forehead.

Cyan Giant Python, Three-Eyed Clouded Leopard? Murong Jiu turned around and saw that he was chasing the two beasts dozens of meters away, and he couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, not only the weak and the strong in the primeval jungle, but also the killing continued, and some of the beasts were still very evil.

The cyan python obviously knew the mystery of this place, and its speed suddenly increased, and it was about to bury the three-eyed clouded leopard in the belly of the snake outside the mysterious place.

When the "roaring ......" three-eyed clouded leopard was nearly ten meters away from Murong Jiu, its hind limbs slammed on the ground, jumped high, and shot towards Murong Jiu like a colorful lightning, narrowly avoiding the cyan python's fangs and vicious mouth.

Murong Jiu's eyes widened immediately, the speed of the three-eyed clouded leopard was too fast, he only took a step to the side, and he was hit by it. He staggered back a few big steps, and before he could push the three-eyed clouded leopard in his arms out of the curl, he heard the whistling wind in front of him.

The mysterious place was like a thunder pool, and the cyan python did not dare to cross the slightest, and the three-eyed clouded leopard's leap made it extremely angry, and its huge snake tail flung forward, and slammed at the three-eyed clouded leopard.

The cyan snake tail was like a huge steel whip, and it was coming in a blink of an eye. Murong Jiu did not push out the three-eyed clouded leopard in his arms, but let out a low shout, bent his arms, and raised his fists to the sky, protecting it in front of his chest. With the true energy in his arm, he took the snake's tail and pumped it.

With a bang, he felt a strong attack, and his body was thrown a few meters away, and after falling to the ground, he slid back against the ground. The irresistible attack power caused his qi and blood to boil, and blood overflowed the corners of his mouth.

Throwing the three-eyed clouded leopard out of the way, he quickly rolled over and stared at it wary. Although he rescued it, he was still wary of the strange one.

The primeval jungle is full of naked and strong animals, and he has survived for many days, but he avoids them. This time, he rescued the three-eyed clouded leopard, it was by chance, and he thought of the blue-eyed red-haired mouse who didn't know life and death, and he felt compassion.

The three-eyed clouded leopard looked at Murong Jiu and let out a low roar, it blinked its eyelids, rolled on the ground a few times, and sniffed deeply.

Ah, you're going to show you too...... The three-eyed clouded leopard made him think of the blue-eyed red-haired mouse again, so he lowered his vigilance and crouched down to gently rub his bruised arms.

The three-eyed clouded leopard wagged its tail and approached him, sniffing the faint fragrance deeply.

The cyan python was obviously extremely jealous of the mysterious place, and it wandered in the mist and glared at Murong Jiu and the three-eyed clouded leopard fiercely for a moment, and then left in a hurry with reluctance.

Glancing at the giant python that was unwilling to leave, Murong Jiu turned his head to look at the dilapidated buildings in the dense fog, he was strongly curious, what kind of mystery was there in this place, which actually shocked the fierce beasts in the jungle to stop and retreat?

"Hey, three-eyed clouded leopard, what kind of place is this?" Murong Jiu looked at this little beast with a smile, as soon as it got out of the mouth of the snake and was on the verge of a fierce place, it actually rolled on the ground without noticing.

Is there a ferocious beast entrenched in the ruined building, or is it a gateway to the netherworld?

Curiosity filled his heart like a spark burning the plain, eager to explore the truth of the mysterious place, pushing Murong Jiu to take a step towards the unknown building a few hundred meters away.

The dilapidated building resembles an ancient temple and a Taoist temple, the doors and windows have long been broken and scattered all over the ground, and only two ancient characters engraved on a crooked and slanted plaque about to fall can identify the identity of this place.

Thirty meters away from the dilapidated building, Murong Jiu and the three-eyed clouded leopard were lying in the dead grass and looking inside.

There is not the slightest life in this place, except for one person and one leopard, not even a trace of wind. The three-eyed clouded leopard also felt abnormal, and quieted down, and in the silence, Murong Jiu clearly heard his heartbeat.

"Yizhuang ......" Murong Jiu didn't read the words on the plaque clearly, but he saw the situation inside through the broken doors and windows.

Under a ruined stone statue, three sarcophagi sit side by side.

Could it be that the vitality of the grass and trees within a radius of several hundred meters was plundered by the sarcophagus, or was the sarcophagus just an appearance, and there was another hidden murderer here? Murong Jiu suddenly felt that this place was ghostly, creepy, and the ghost crying and laughing seemed to ring in his ears.

He retreated, put his fingers to his mouth, and made a silent motion at the three-eyed clouded leopard, his body slowly retreating without making a sound.

Suddenly, the lids of the three sarcophagi slid open silently, and a strong yin wind swept away in all directions.

Pounding, pounding, pounding...... Murong Jiu's face turned pale in an instant, his whole body was sweating like rain, and his heart was beating like a drum.

Uh......h There were three terrible ghost howls in the air, and three figures suddenly stood upright from the three sarcophagus.

The three figures jumped out of the sarcophagus, bowed to the stone statue, and then turned around and took a deep breath, as if they had died into corpses, and they were extremely nostalgic for the breath of life in the world.

All three corpses are female, with an old corpse in the middle and a woman's appearance on either side. They were all dressed in black shrouds, and their three pairs of eyes were lifeless, and their bodies were constantly filled with a sinister aura.

Corpse ...... Murong Jiu's eyes narrowed in fear, he felt his calves and stomach turn, and he was trembling in the grass, not daring to make any noise. The three-eyed clouded leopard also obviously felt mysterious, and its body shrunk into the grass nest, staring at the three corpses motionlessly.

The three female corpses stood for a moment, then sat cross-legged on the ground, pinched different laws with both hands, pointed to the sky, and laid down a three-corpse array.

Suddenly, a breath of death spread outward with the three corpses as a circle. Murong Jiu's heart jumped, he felt a gust of yin wind enter his body along the pores of his body, and the three-eyed clouded leopard beside him also felt the yin qi attacking his body.

The six claws of the three female corpses towards the sky, the law suddenly changed, and the aura of death permeating the eight directions retreated like a tide. Murong Jiu and the three-eyed clouded leopard felt the cool qi burrow out of their bodies at the same time, and took away a trace of their own life qi.

The breath of death carried the breath of life of one person and one leopard, and instantly penetrated into the bodies of the three female corpses.

The three corpses set up a three-corpse array, frantically plundering the life essence of this place!

The three corpses sensed the extraordinary vitality of Murong Jiu and the Three-Eyed Clouded Leopard, and glanced in the direction where they were hiding, as if revealing an eerie smile. Their law changed, and a fierce death aura surged towards one person and one leopard, enveloping their bodies at once.

Murong Jiu was shocked, and the dead qi invaded his body from his pores and seven orifices, and he felt extremely heavy and unconscious, and he was almost drowsy. At the same time, the three-eyed clouded leopard felt heavy eyelids, and his spirit immediately withered.

The law of the three corpses changed again, and the breath of death retreated again, wrapped in the life essence of one person and one leopard, which was ingested by them.

In just an instant, Murong Jiu and the Three-Eyed Clouded Leopard lost too much of their life essence, like the three corpses were frantically grabbing as if they were breathing in and out, and if this continued, they could only be sucked into dry corpses.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...... Just as Murong Jiu was about to flee desperately, a screaming sound of breaking the air was clearly heard in the air in the distance.

Murong Jiu's mind was stagnant and lay dormant again. And the three corpses in Yizhuang quickly withdrew the law and floated into the sarcophagus, and the coffin lid closed silently, as if everything was the same as before, and nothing had happened.

The three figures stepped on their swords, and the moment they landed on the ground, they each pinched their swords, and three long swords shot out from under their feet, and after spinning in the air for a week, they let out a sword groan, and returned to the scabbard.

The three of them stood in front of Yizhuang and looked at the three sarcophagi. They were all dressed in gray robes, and the man in the middle was a rugged-looking middle-aged man with two long swords on his back and a sinister look in his eyes. At his side, a young man and a woman.

Such a mysterious and evil place, but three gray-clothed people appeared, and the three corpses were hidden in the void, and the darkness was Chencang. This place is getting more and more complicated, and Murong Jiu, who is eager to get out, doesn't know the details of the three of them, but he doesn't dare to make any changes, he holds his breath and waits for a good opportunity to escape.

"Master, these three corpses are so good, can they really completely control the corpses?" the young man began.

"Hmph, little dead corpse ......" The middle-aged man was obviously very dissatisfied with his disciple's words, and his tone revealed a strong confidence, and he said disdainfully: "Dead corpses are far less terrible than living people, and controlling corpses is nothing more than that." ”

"It's Master, Master's skills are the best in the world, and no one can compare. Thinking that the senior brother had said something suspicious not long ago, and had been thrown to the land of ghosts for three months, the young man shuddered and hurriedly slapped his ass.

Controlling the corpse, controlling the corpse...... Murong Jiu's heart trembled, the ancient martial arts in the Huaxia Cultivation World Realm were really popular, but could they succeed?

When he heard "corpse control", he instantly thought of the "corpse chaser" in Chinese movies, but he never thought that three mysterious people who didn't know the details went deep into the vast primeval jungle just for simple control.

The middle-aged man did not enter Yizhuang, but stretched out his right paw forward, sending out a wave of suction force--taking objects in the air. Suddenly, the head of the broken statue was sucked and crushed by the middle-aged man's claws, leaving a black and white round bead in the palm of his hand.

Yin and Yang Beads...... It turned out that in the entire Yizhuang, the middle-aged man laid a yin and yang array, just to gather the two qi of life and death in the three corpses, and achieve three yin and yang corpse puppets.

Yin and Yang corpse puppets gather the qi of life and death in dead corpses, and the corpse controllers use secret techniques to hide their yin breath, so that they can walk in broad daylight and fight for themselves. The Yin and Yang corpse puppets have no autonomous consciousness, do not know pain, are tireless, and their combat effectiveness is very strong.

The ultimate corpse of the corpse path is the refining of the corpse of the living. Those who are extremely advanced in magic forcibly control the soul of the living, reverse their willpower, and make them have a body and soul, so that they can survive and cultivate normally, but they lack self-control over people and things, and the power of life and death is completely in the hands of others.

The refining of corpses by living people is also known as the art of serving the gods, and it is looked upon by chivalrous monks.

And the ordinary corpse puppet can't survive under the scorching sun for a long time because the yin qi is too heavy.
