Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Deceased
It happened to be tonight, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and in the dark night sky, the stars exuded a faint brilliance. The eerie atmosphere sets off the entire area near the city gate in a particularly eerie and terrifying way. From time to time, a few crows could be heard outside the city, which seemed particularly permeable in the silent night, so that the dozens of people who were keeping vigil above the city tower could feel a burst of coldness.
The sound of "swish" came from not far away, and everyone looked in the direction of the comer. Except for the three monks who talked before, most of these people were ordinary martial arts personnel and soldiers sent by the imperial court, so naturally they had no means of night vision. But these people can also feel from their hearts that the person who is coming is the Mr. Ren who has advanced in Buddhist cultivation.
Not long ago, it was this Mr. Ren who made a move, and under the great display of his might, he severely injured the demon. Later, the demon didn't know what was going on, and his strength suddenly improved a lot overnight. Even so, this Mr. Ren has never backed down. Each time, he relied on the strength of one person to resist the attack of the demon, and then the others maneuvered around on the sidelines, so he persevered until tonight.
"Mr. Ren"
"Mr. Ren"γγγγγγ
Above the city gate, excited voices rang out one after another. These voices contain too many meanings, and there is a sense of admiration for the people who come to fight against evil spirits without regard for their own safety. What's more, even if he is injured, he will never run for his life alone, and he is willing to sacrifice his admiration for the people in the city. Regardless of the outcome, the living will remember this Mr. Ren.
"Everyone, tonight will be the weakest night for the demons, and the demons will surely come to the capital in search of food. Success or failure is all in this battle, if you win, it's fine, if you lose, it's γγγγγγ "What if you lose, Mr. Ren didn't say, but everyone present knew it very well. If they fail, these people will die, and if it is just the sacrifice of these people, it will be worth it in exchange for the survival of all the people.
But the deeper end is not only the death of these people, but also the people in the city, who will fall into great panic in the days to come, and become the blood food of demons. This is definitely not what these people on the castle tower want to see, so no matter what, fight to the death.
"Shi Daoyou, you are in the sky, do you know that Shendu City is about to face an unprecedented calamityγγγγγγ A deep voice floated slowly, and the bleak atmosphere filled the team that shouldered the lives of the people of the entire city. Ren Bufan is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of his own death, and he can't save the lives of these defenseless people. But for the sake of the faith in the heart, and for the sake of the path pursued, we can only fight to the death.
"It was in vain to save his life outside Jeju City. Shi Yifeng secretly thought in his heart that this person's heart is excellent, and his understanding is also extraordinary. Unexpectedly, it has only been a few months since the Immortal Ascension Conference, and Ren Bufan has already come to this point. It is only one step away from the Jindan realm. Now it only takes an opportunity to break through this shackle and truly enter the world of cultivators.
"Hmph, Shi thought he would meet you for a while. The emotions of dozens of people on top of the city tower had to move Shi Yifeng, and it also deeply aroused the blood in his heart. Now that he has further cultivated, Shi Yifeng definitely has great confidence in his own strength. It's just that what he didn't expect was that before he returned home, he would encounter this demon. Fortunately, I was not too late.
There is another thing, which he never expected, that he would meet Ren Bufan in this place. For a long time, Shi Yifeng has regarded this man, who is not high in cultivation but has excellent character, as a friend. Since he was able to meet this person three times in this huge world, it must be considered a result of heaven's will.
After this incident, when he was introduced to the Daoist Sect, it could be regarded as an explanation for this relationship. As for the future, it all depends on the will of Godγγγγγγ A loud and almost inaudible voice slowly came out of Shi Yifeng's mouth, and it calmed down after a long time.
At this moment, Shi Yifeng suddenly felt a breath with a strong smell of blood, and he was moving quickly towards Shendu City from a distance. This breath gave Shi Yifeng an extremely evil feeling, the speed of the comer was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was only a hundred and ten zhang away from the city gate.
At this time, Shi Yifeng finally saw what kind of monster the comer was. Although this thing is shrouded in a blood qi all over its body, with its own divine sense, it can already see the essence of the demon in the blood qi. This is clearly a person, it should be said that he is a person who has died, but has come back to life. The four teeth in the mouth poked out more than an inch long, but the gaze was a little dull and dull.
"It's not good! it's a bloody corpse!" Shi Yifeng couldn't help but exclaim.
There are clouds in ancient books, and corpses are divided into two types. One is the spirit corpse, the spirit corpse absorbs the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, cultivates its own body, and never harms people's lives at will. This kind of corpse may have been relatively slow to enter the realm when it first cultivated, but to some extent, it was the Heavenly Heart of the Upper Body. Therefore, every great and small tribulation is almost the same as a normal cultivator, and basically all of them can attain the Dao. Even, the legendary generals are supreme, and their cultivation is even more terrifying.
As for the other type, the blood corpse is different from the spirit corpse, and the blood corpse relies on the essence blood of other living creatures to cultivate. It will harm people's names at every turn, and there has even been a massacre of the city. This kind of corpse was very fast at the beginning, but in the later stage, it could not resist the last ascension tribulation, and could only turn into dust under the heavenly tribulation. But whenever there is a bloody corpse, the cultivation world will definitely not allow this kind of evil thing to grow, otherwise it will cause chaos in the entire world.
All of this appeared in Shi Yifeng's mind, but it was only a few breaths of time. At this time, Ren Bufan on the city tower had obviously sensed the arrival of the blood corpse. I saw that he hurriedly shouted loudly to the others, but he took three cultivators who were slightly weaker in cultivation and fell down towards the outside of the city gate first. Almost at the same time, as soon as the bloody corpse appeared outside the city gate, the four men stood in four directions, surrounding the bloody corpse in the center.
The blood corpse was obviously just beginning to develop its mind, and its instinct was far greater than its sanity. I only know that one of these four people once almost killed himself. I don't know anything about what formations, and my whole body exudes extremely amazing blood qi, which is mixed with a disgusting smell, which makes people shudder. "Roar~~~~~~~" The blood corpse suddenly roared and rushed towards the direction where Ren Bufan was.
This rush is so fast, I am afraid that if you are an ordinary monk, you may not have time to make defensive preparations. But Ren Bufan had obviously been prepared for a long time, only to see him silently chanting some unknown mantras in his mouth, clasping his hands together, and constantly changing his gestures, which was clearly an extremely powerful Buddhist supernatural power. It was too late, it was too fast, and suddenly Ren Bufan's eyes opened, and at this time, the blood corpse had already rushed in front of him.
With a loud "bang", Ren Bufan's whole person flew straight to the back, and at the corner of his mouth, a trace of blood was particularly distinct. And the strength of the blood corpse, after a few months, has now steadily surpassed Ren Bufan's line, but it has only taken a dozen steps back. At this time, the other three people quickly struck, and three ropes emitting a faint golden light trapped the bloody corpse at the same time.
"Everyone, insist, it only takes half a pillar of incense to kill Ren Mou completely!" Ren Bufan shouted, and appeared in front of the bloody corpse. In the cuffs, several Buddhist beads that exude an extraordinary aura appeared. These Buddha beads are Ren Bufan's reliance tonight, and there are as many as seven in total. Only by sealing the seven orifices of the blood corpse with seven Buddha beads, then the blood corpse will be temporarily sealed and motionless. When the time comes, Ren Bufan will urge the fire of spiritual power that he has cultivated so hard to burn the demons.
All of this takes a lot of time, but it's actually just a few breaths.
"Puffγγγγγγ The sound was endless, and Ren Bufan's hands moved together, constantly unable to act for the time being, and he could only rely on the head of the bloody corpse that was constantly waving with his hands to slap down. And every time you shoot it, there will be one less Buddha bead in your hand. First the ears, then the eyes, then the nose, until the last Buddha bead slapped into the mouth of the bloody corpse, Ren Bufan retreated and fell to the ground in a languid.
And at this time, the bloody corpse finally stopped struggling. The hands pointed forward, and above the sharp claws, a faint black light emanated, and from time to time there were bursts of whining sounds from the mouth.
Mr. Renγγγγγγ Seeing this, the three of them hurriedly left the rope in their hands and quickly rushed towards Ren Bufan, who fell to the ground. In the end, the old man surnamed Xu was a little higher than the other two, and the old man gently helped Ren Bufan who fell to the ground up. His right hand pressed against Ren Bufan's back and began to transmit his spiritual power to him through his back.
After a few breaths, although the time was short, for the three of them, it was like a long time. Ren Bufan slowly opened his eyes, but his gaze was no longer as radiant as at the beginning, and these people now understood that this Mr. Ren might not be able to exert his magical powers in a short period of time.
"This fang can only be burned with real fire, and no fire can harm it. Is it really providential???" Ren Bufan shouted out with all his might, but there was too much helplessness in his voice.
Maybe it was Ren Bufan's voice that stimulated the blood corpse that was temporarily sealed, or maybe the time had come. The bloody corpse's entire body trembled, and then a desperate scene occurred.
The Buddha beads in the mouth of the bloody corpse were finally consumed. I saw it roar, and then the Buddha beads in the nostrils, the Buddha beads on the eyes, and the Buddha beads in the ears flew out one after another. As soon as he flew a few steps away, he exploded. After all, his cultivation was too weak, and Ren Bufan's unwillingness in his heart was extremely strong. As soon as the bloody corpse got out of the trap, it jumped towards the four of them, each jumping like the footsteps of the god of death slowly approaching.
"Resigned to your fateγγγγγγ β
