Chapter 40: Corpses
At the other end of the Changling Palace, Hu Hai woke up in a nightmare.
The mattress under him was soaked in his cold sweat, and in his nightmare, his skin and flesh melted on the bed, and the feeling in the dream was very similar to the slimy feeling at this time.
He was pleasantly surprised not only by the unspeakable fear, but also by the subtle sound and coldness, the sound of the artemisia grass breaking on the eaves, and the coldness came from the starlight that shuttled through the night.
It's a taste he's been familiar with since he was a child.
For some reason, since he was a child, he felt that his mother, Zheng Sleeve, didn't like him. The preference for Fusu was not revealed on the surface, but whether it was his gaze or even the backs left by many of the people when he turned around, he felt that there was this kind of coldness inside.
He didn't understand why there was such a terrifying coldness that made him exist, even if he was slightly inferior to Fusu's cultivation talent, but weren't they both her sons?
The coldness of tonight was so clear that he didn't dare to move on the sticky bed after waking up from the nightmare, and these subtle sounds rattled like poisonous snakes, and he couldn't help but think of the dark underground, Shen Xuan's monster pierced his skin with hollow needles, and the sound of blood spurting out of the needles was like this.
This subtle sound was particularly clear in the absolute silence, the blood turned into a red mist around him, the sound lasted for a long time, but the blood lost in the body was not too much, it only made people a little weak and helpless, and of course, there was a lot of extreme fear that kept accumulating.
Hu Hai's body began to twitch.
His body twitched and even throbbed on the sticky bedding.
The dull thud of the sturdy bed turned into a palpitating murmur in the empty palace.
There were panicked footsteps and shouts, and a physician quickly swept to his side, and several kinds of medicinal liquids that relieved body convulsions and calmed the soul were quickly used by this physician, who was also a powerful cultivator, to cross into Hu Hai's body with true yuan, and then the physician took out several golden needles extremely skillfully and quickly, and pierced into some of Hu Hai's qi and blood surging points.
This kind of imperial doctor has superb means, but what makes his face ugly is that he has all these methods, but just like several times before, he can't relieve Hu Hai's symptoms at all. Hu Hai's convulsions were like a real nightmare.
So much so that in the next few breaths, he had to pat Hu Hai's lungs with both hands, and use his true yuan to maintain the function of Hu Hai's five organs, so as not to prevent Hu Hai from being unable to breathe in the constant and violent convulsions, and even serious problems in the five organs.
The palpitating sound of convulsions against the bed continued for a long time, and the doctor's clothes were completely soaked.
When the situation was completely stabilized, the physician walked out of Hu Hai's dormitory, and in the bright moonlight, his face was a little gray, and he said to the many colleagues or disciples who were waiting for him in a very heavy voice: "We must find a cure method, or find someone who can cure him with higher means than us, otherwise if it continues, this will not be a psychological problem, and his whole body will be completely destroyed." ”
......
In the black night, the mottled soul nails slowly withdrew inch by inch from the sea of aura of the eldest lady of the merchant.
There is a black air flow at the front of the fingers of Thousand Tombs' hands connected to this soul nail, and this picture gives people the feeling that the ten fingers of his hands have melted and are connected to this soul nail.
Although his cultivation came from his most beloved master, Yan Ying, he took a shortcut in the previous realms, and he was unable to appreciate the subtle changes in each realm, so he should stay at the level of the seven realms in this life, and he would never be able to break through to the eight realms.
However, because of the perfect inheritance of Yan Ying's natal object, coupled with the extremely strong means of opposing the enemy that others cannot understand, he is still close to an invincible existence among the grandmasters of the Seven Realms.
It's just that this Soul Suppression Nail is the treasure of the Great Qi Dynasty, and for all cultivators who cultivate the Yin God Ghost Object Exercises, it is a divine object whose Yuan Qi rules are extremely powerful, so even for him, the process of removing this Soul Suppression Nail is much more difficult than facing several enemies in the Seven Realms at the same time.
When Yan Ying died, the Qi Si people should be one of the strongest cultivators in the Great Qi Dynasty, and he should even have the confidence to face an opponent like the Tantai Guanjian, even if he can't defeat him, he may have the ability to protect himself. But it was impossible for him to survive under the joint efforts of the Tantai Guanjian and the Thousand Tombs, so when he sensed the breath of the Tantai Guanjian and the Thousand Tombs, he decided to abandon Miss Shang and leave.
He didn't even have time to kill the merchant's eldest lady, and he didn't have time to take this soul scrabbing nail.
The soul suppression nail is a sacred object used by the royal family of the Great Qi Dynasty to deter various sects, and it is an important weapon of the country, so when the Qi people fled, they would be so indifferent and angry when they faced those subordinates of Zheng Sleeve.
Yuan Wu and Zheng Sleeve had a problem, this was just a family matter of the Great Qin Dynasty, but in this incident, it was the Great Qi Dynasty that suffered the most.
When time passed slowly, when the Thousand Tombs finally pulled out this soul settling nail, he also became weak, and his whole body trembled constantly.
"Thank you. ”
The eldest lady of the merchant earnestly thanked him, and the old servant who had been following her bowed deeply to him.
"You can nail this soul into a natal object. "Thousand Tombs knew that her natal object had been destroyed against the enemy Zis, so he immediately suggested.
The eldest lady of the merchant herself needs such a powerful natal object, and she also knows very well that the Thousand Tombs do not need such a natal object, so she did not have any excuses and took over this Great Qi Holy Relic from the slightly trembling hands of the Thousand Tombs.
"Li Yunrui and Bai Shanshui couple, is it really okay for them to rob the heads of the twelve witch gods?" at the same time, she said with some concern.
Needless to say, the strength of Bai Shanshui and Li Yunrui's alliance is naturally needless to say, but the Great Qi Dynasty is now the dynasty with the most Seven Realm Grandmasters, and the Yin God and Ghost Methods of Qi Si similar grandmasters are not something that ordinary cultivators can deal with, in fact, in her mind, she doesn't think that Bai Shanshui and others alone can stop Emperor Qi from using the Twelve Witch God Heads.
"Ding Ning said yes, because we just need to destroy it, and we don't have to get it. Qianji replied quickly: "And he also said that what he thought clearly, Bai Shanshui must also think clearly, so Bai Shanshui said that he would hand over this matter to her." ”
The eldest lady of the merchant was stunned for a moment.
Naturally, there is a big difference between destroying and obtaining, but for all cultivators who cultivate Yin Gods and Ghosts, I am afraid that they would not have thought that someone would actually not want to obtain such a cultivation treasure, and would be willing to destroy it.
"In that case, there should be no problem. The merchant lady nodded, her gaze falling on herself and the two servants on either side of the Thousand Tombs.
The two servants were dressed in a very strange way, their whole bodies were submerged in heavy black robes, and even their faces were wrapped in black cloth, and there was some black arrogance flowing from the black cloth.
Her cultivation itself came from the exercises of the Great Qi Dynasty, so she knew very well that these two servants were not alive.
"Your sect actually has the means to control corpses as servants, and it can still keep the vitality going?" she couldn't help but ask.
As far as she knew, it should be that even the legendary twelve witch gods did not have such a means of defying the sky.
"It can't be completely dispersed, and it needs to be nourished with the vitality of the Thousand Tombs Mountain. Thousand Tombs looked at her and explained without concealment.
Is it equivalent to using natal vitality to continuously maintain these corpses?
The eldest lady of the merchant was stunned.
Because in the future, the vitality of the natal object is constantly depleted, and it is eaten by these corpses like food.
"The Thousand Tombs Mountain itself is the natal object left to me by my master, and it is worth it if it can be turned into a more powerful means of fighting the enemy to help my master. Qianji could see her incomprehension, and then said: "Even if Shizun's natal object is not there, I still remember the exercises he passed on to me, even if I can't break through the Eight Realms, as long as I pass it on, someone will eventually be able to surpass me now." ”
The eldest lady of the merchant understood what he meant, thought for a moment, then raised her head and said slowly in her usual gentle voice: "Since that matter is in charge of Bai Shanshui, there is no need for us to interfere, since you think like this again, then we will go to another place in Qi Chao." ”
