The demon body is hungry......

It's a rather odd feeling.

You must know that the demon body has always been unconscious, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the walking dead, more precisely, it is a state of a doppelganger puppet.

But just now, Zhao Lingtai felt a sense of hunger sprouting from the demon body, and wanted to go out hunting for food. That's why he summoned the puppy and let it go out into the forest.

So, does it mean that after the demon body evolves, it has some autonomous consciousness?

This is an inevitable, incomplete "Corpse Cutting Sutra", the beheaded demon body is mutilated, but this is not permanent - unless Zhao Lingtai wants to keep it like this forever.

But in that case, blindly suppressing the demon body and making it impossible to grow is equivalent to letting a young child stop growing, and it will slowly become useless, or even scrapped.

This is not the result that Zhao Lingtai wants to see, so when his realm improves, he also hopes that the demon body will progress so as to keep up with his pace.

The demon body has developed an autonomous consciousness, which is not a bad thing, but the premise is that everything is controllable.

Of course, the little consciousness that puppies have now is actually just an animal instinct, limited to hunger and satiety, which is far from "will" and the like, and is not the same thing at all.

This mountain range is vast and boundless, belonging to the edge of the ruins of the Holy City, thousands of years ago, not only demon cultivators were active here, but also human monks. There may have been a lot of fighting, resulting in casualties.

That's why there is a ghost.

The ghost is an ethereal state, which is formed by the obsession of a living being after death, or because of other reasons, it does not disappear and is condensed.

Most of the ghosts have no autonomous consciousness, and act on instinct, and basically only haunt at night, wandering among the mountains and forests, looking for fresh flesh and blood, or bewitching them, or taking them away, and replacing them.

The Yin Soul will also grow, and when it grows stronger, it will have a ferocious nature and become a fierce spirit.

The puppy haunts the mountains and forests, and the shadows that devour are the ghosts. It feeds on it, and the Shade is powerless to defend itself.

However, these Yin Spirits are too weak, and the energy they contain is pitifully small, and it is difficult to satisfy the appetite of the demon body.

It didn't take long for the puppy to walk through the mountains and forests, only devouring three glooms of ghosts, and nothing more.

The formation of a Yin Soul is not easy, unless there are some extremely fierce places, other places, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to find a Yin Spirit.

There are ghosts wandering in the ruins of the holy city, but for Zhao Lingtai, it is an unexpected joy, just let the demon body out, and have a good meal.

The things that the demon body can devour and absorb are very miscellaneous, all kinds of breaths, those who come do not refuse, vitality, aura, yang energy...... But the most suitable thing for him is still the evil resentment.

For example, ghosts and the like.

The problem is that it is not easy to let Zhao Lingtai go to find ghosts. If the demon is acting and directly letting the demon body go unpunished and refining the living, it will be a quick way.

But Zhao Lingtai can't do that, if he follows the rules, he can only depend on chance.

Now it seems that the ruins of the Holy City will be a good opportunity. This trip, even if there are no follow-up clues about the "Corpse Sutra", but it is a worthwhile trip to be able to let the demon body prey on a large scale.

After searching the entire mountain forest and finding nothing more, Zhao Lingtai moved his mind and let the demon body return to the cave.

In the huge mountain range, there must be other Yin Spirits, but the range is too large and difficult to find, so it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to let the demon body go out to sweep, and it is not cost-effective, it is better to take it back first, recuperate, and wait until tomorrow to officially enter the ruins of the Holy City, and then show off your skills.

New firewood was added, the bonfire was burning, and a pile of charcoal had already accumulated on the ground, red and hot.

Zhao Lingtai sat by the fire, did not sleep, meditated cross-legged, closed his eyes and recuperated.

This sitting was a night's work, and when dawn broke, he got up, full of energy and refreshed.

When I walked out of the cave, I saw that the sky was clear, and it was no longer gloomy on a rainy day.

Zhao Lingtai went to the edge of a nearby stream, washed his face with a handful of water, rested for a while, and immediately set off to the ruins of the holy city.

According to the records, the holy city of that year covered a huge area, up to more than 100,000 acres of area, surrounded by several mountains, among which there were lakes and rivers, etc., to say that it was a city, in terms of concept, it was inevitably narrow, it should be said to be a region.

The map in his hand, Zhao Lingtai is already familiar with it, so he doesn't need to look at it anymore. As for the path to the ruins of the Holy City, such a large place, you can enter it from any direction.

About an hour later, Zhao Lingtai stood still in front of a canyon.

The canyon is quite large, and the woods in it are densely wooded, and there is a kind of vine with a pattern, one by one as thick as a small arm, and it is like a huge spider web that climbs all over the canyon. And when you look closely, you can see many vines winding, like colorful poisonous snakes, which seem to seep people.

This kind of vine plant, Zhao Lingtai has never seen it, I don't know why it is of other varieties.

However, what made Zhao Lingtai stop was not these strange vine plants, but two tall statues erected on the left and right sides of the canyon.

The statue is more than ten zhang high, it should be carved and hewn with a whole piece of boulder, the shape is different, the head above, below the waist, but it is the body of a snake, a long snake tail dragged behind him, and finally combined with the ground.

These two statues are erected here, I don't know how many years, the surface of the stone everywhere shows mottled signs, and moss has grown in many places. Under the erosion of wind and frost, or man-made destruction, the statue is more or less mutilated. The one on the right, one of his arms was even broken, and he didn't know where it fell.

Even so, the quaint and distant atmosphere emanating from the statue tells the story of the splendor of the Holy City.

Inside the demon cultivation, there is also civilization, there is a demon inheritance, and its transformation is characterized by the likes to erect all kinds of god statues. The original form of the gods is mostly the big demon in the clan, or the image from ancient mythology.

It's a pity that after discovering the fairy world, shattering the void, and the ascension of the clan, in the human world, the inheritance of the demon clan suddenly broke down, which was equivalent to a blank directly, and many things were no longer known.

The ruins of this holy city are equivalent to a ruin, but the Terran monks came here not to study the demon civilization, but to venture out to hunt for treasures, and once they found something valuable, they immediately plundered it.

The two human-headed snake statues erected in the canyon, the eyes of the head were empty, obviously there should have been inlaid with gems or something, after being discovered, they were dug up, and there were empty eye sockets.

Zhao Lingtai watched below, and suddenly realized that the puppy appeared, jumped quickly towards the statue on the left, and jumped all the way to the top, and then stopped at the empty eye socket.

The eyes of the statue are equivalent to two caves for the puppy, and there seems to be something hidden inside...... 8)
