Lin Hu and Niu Xiong, the two disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect who disappeared on the Demon Island back then, were all masters who had cultivated to the realm of the Ning Yuan Realm, and the shock caused by this even spread to the elders of the Ling Xiao Sect, and the sect even sent people down to the Demon Island to search carefully. It's just that after a busy time, there was nothing to gain from searching for everyone, and in the end they had to leave disappointed, and most of them since then, it was because these two people should have been careless, and they fell into the hands of ghosts on the demon island.

But after more than a year, Shen Shi actually saw these two people again in the demon hunting cave, and they have become monsters who are not like people and ghosts, which is really terrifying. And listening to Niu Xiong's tone, there seems to be a hidden secret in the encounter between these two people.

It's just that although Shen Shi has thousands of questions in his heart, this is not the time to talk in detail, because after Lin Hu, who looked like a demon, knelt in front of the Yin Ghost King and spoke, after a while in the stone room, the black shadow trembled, but the mysterious and fierce ghost thing slowly floated up, floating above the hole that emitted golden light, and the black gas was wrapped around his body, and after a while, a pair of blood-red eyes the size of a copper bell appeared in the black air, followed by an extremely cold voice:

"What is it?"

The voice was cold and ruthless, not a little angry, but Lin Hu didn't seem to feel anything, lying on the ground and laughing dryly, getting up and walking back to the dark corner, only to hear a trembling sound, and after a while Lin Hu walked back, but in his hand was dragging a person, from a distance it seemed to be slender and thin, but he couldn't see whether he was dead or alive.

Lin Hu walked all the way to the Yin Ghost King, put the person he was dragging in his hand in front of this ghost thing, and then smiled flatteringly, and said, "Ghost King, this is a living creature taken by today's 'Heavenly Brahma Ancient Pearl', it is actually a young demon girl, isn't it really your best supplement?"

"Boom!"

With a low roar, black gas rose up, swaying like a black flame, Lin Hu's face changed, and he couldn't help but take a step back, but the Yin Ghost King obviously didn't notice him, but slowly leaned over and looked at the girl who fell to the ground, and after a while, he suddenly laughed and said:

"Well done!"

After receiving the praise of this Yin Ghost King, Lin Hu suddenly knelt down, as if he had received some highest reward, and kowtowed a few more times, and said loudly: "Thank you Ghost King for your praise." ”

At the same time, in another dark corner of the stone room, behind the hidden stone gap, Shen Shi's body suddenly shook, and he almost screamed out loud, the demon girl who was captured by Lin Hu had a beautiful appearance, and she was carrying a red clam shell behind her, which was a starfish.

During this day, the strange things that Shen Shi encountered were really like the waves of the sea, wave after wave, not only did he have almost no chance to breathe, but also one by one he was unexpected, until this moment he was a little unbelievable, didn't the starfish always stay in the red clam village on Qingyu Island, why did he suddenly come to this demon island demon hunting cave from such a far away, and it seemed that he was caught by Lin Hu, who had become a ghost, and was offered to this Yin Ghost King as an offering?

And just now Lin Hu's words seemed to mention something called "Tianfa Ancient Pearl", what is it? Look at that, it means that this unknown Tianfan Ancient Pearl caught the starfish here, but Shen Shi had never heard of this name before, it sounded like a mysterious magic weapon?

For a while, Shen Shi's mind was in turmoil, especially when he saw the black qi lingering around the Yin Ghost King, who seemed to be gradually approaching the starfish who was unconscious on the ground, Shen Shi became more and more anxious, and couldn't help but take action. But at this moment, suddenly a large hand reached out from the side, grabbed him from the gap in the stone, and pressed him to the ground fiercely.

Two strange dark red eyes stared at him coldly in the dark.

"Don't do anything stupid. Niu Xiong hissed in a hoarse voice, with a hint of chill.

※※※

Shen Shi struggled twice at first, but soon quieted down, although there was still a little anxiety in his eyes, but it seemed that he had gritted his teeth and resisted the impulse.

Niu Xiong slowly removed his arm, and Shen Shi sat up without saying a word, rubbing the neck that he had just pressed down, where there was a faint pain. The monks of the Ning Yuan Realm realm, whether they are Dao or physical, will be much stronger than the Qi Refining Realm, and Niu Xiong, who has become a half-human, half-ghost-like monster, it is difficult to say how much Dao Xing is left, but this physical strength seems to be better than in the past.

Niu Xiong turned around, motioned Shen Shi to stay where he was, and then quietly returned to the crack in the stone, looked around for a while, and then came back again, and said in a low voice: "The Yin Ghost King is cultivating, and he won't eat for at least two hours, so that girl will be fine for the time being." But she's a mussel shell, and she's from the Red Mussel clan, do you know her?"

Shen Shi nodded, also lowered his voice, and said, "Yes, I met her in the Red Clam Village on the island, she is a good girl, Senior Brother Niu, please save her!"

Niu Xiong snorted coldly, with a bit of inexplicable bleakness, and muttered: "I can't even save myself, why should I save others?"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Shen Shi to plead again, he pulled Shen Shi up, but left this dark and narrow corridor directly. Shen Shi followed Niu Xiong to turn left and right in this dark cave, and was soon led by him to a secluded fork not far from the Yongdao just now, where there was only a naturally formed half-open space, surrounded by hard stone walls, and the entrance was hidden between the corners of a stone crevice, if you didn't look closely, it was almost impossible to find this corner in this dark cave.

At this point, Niu Xiong seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time let go of a grip on Shen Shi's hand.

As soon as Shen Shi saw him stop, he couldn't wait to ask Niu Xiong, "Senior Brother Niu, what the hell is going on?"

Niu Xiong was silent for a while, and did not speak immediately, Shen Shi looked at him with some apprehension, in the dark, only Niu Xiong's weird red eyes were flashing, is he a human or a ghost now?

After another moment, Niu Xiong's hoarse and strange voice finally echoed in the darkness, and with a little pain, he began to slowly tell the story of what happened that night.

On the same day, Gan Ze landed on the demon island for the first time, Lin Hu volunteered to accompany Gan Ze into the depths of the demon island in order to flatter this proud son of the sky, and finally for some reason, the two of them actually entered the most dangerous demon hunting cave on the demon island.

This Yin Ghost King is indeed in the records of the Ling Xiao Sect, and its strength is also the strongest among all the ghosts in the Demon Hunting Cave, but generally speaking, it is a level where more than ten Qi Refining Realm disciples can barely win if they join forces to deal with it, and if a disciple of Ning Yuan Realm comes to it, even if it is a little troublesome, it can still defeat this ghost thing.

After all, this demon island was arranged to sharpen the introductory disciples of the Qi Refining Realm, and those Lingxiao Sect Patriarchs placed the demon beasts and ghosts on the demon island could not be too strong.

But many years later, this Yin Ghost King, who had been hidden in the Demon Hunting Cave for many years, did not know why his Dao Xing had advanced greatly, even if Lin Hu was already in the realm of Ning Yuan Realm, he was not his opponent, and he was easily defeated by the Yin Ghost King. But Gan Ze saw that the situation was not good, took out a secret talisman treasure of the Gan family, staggered out of the demon hunting cave and sent out a red mang for help, and quickly summoned Gan Wenqing, one of the three swords of Ling Xiao.

Gan Wenqing is one of the three young masters of the Lingxiao Sect today, his Taoism is far superior to his peers, he has already cultivated to the realm of divine artistic conception, and he has even been passed down by Elder Yunni, one of the five elders today, and his combat power is really worlds apart from that Lin Hu. Therefore, once Gan Wenqing rushed to the demon island, he immediately suppressed the Yin Ghost King, and in a fit of rage, he hit the ghost thing with a sword, forcing the Yin Ghost King to escape into the demon hunting cave in a hurry.

And Gan Wenqing was worried about Gan Ze's injury, and she didn't have the heart to chase after the fleeing ghost, so she took Gan Ze and left the demon island.

But in the middle of this, Niu Xiong, a disciple of the Ling Xiao Sect, rushed to the demon hunting cave before Gan Wenqing, intending to do his best to rescue Gan Ze and Lin Hu. However, what he never expected was that when Lin Hu was defeated by the Yin Ghost King and wanted to be killed, he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he cried and begged for mercy desperately, and in the end he sold himself to take refuge in order to survive, even if he became a half-human and half-ghost monster.

What's even more outrageous is that after Lin Hu became a ghost, he seemed to have completely put aside those courtesy, righteousness and shame, and took the initiative to give advice to the Yin Ghost King, and even pretended to be injured himself, introduced Niu Xiong into the demon hunting cave, and the Yin Ghost King defeated Niu Xiong, and also turned this fellow disciple into a monster like himself.

Shen Shi listened to it all the way, and only felt that his body was a little cold, especially when he saw Niu Xiong's eyes shining with a strange red light in the dark, a chill leaked from his whole body, but in his heart, there was still something he couldn't understand, so he couldn't help but ask: "That...... Why didn't Lin Hu let the Yin Ghost King kill you, but to spare your life, and turned you into the same ...... as him?"

"Yes" a few times, but Shen Shi couldn't say it, I don't know how to describe Niu Xiong's current state, he said it was a ghost, but he retained a little sobriety and sanity, said it was a human being, but it was like a walking corpse, and he couldn't go back to the past.

In the dark, Niu Xiong's eyes seemed to be full of anger, extremely resentful, and said coldly: "He wants to see someone end up with him, and his heart will be better." ”

For the first time, Shen Shi deeply experienced the so-called darkest and ugliest side of human nature, and for a while, he was speechless.

However, Niu Xiong didn't seem to care, at this moment, it seemed that there was only a trace of resentment and anger left in his eyes, and he only heard him say coldly: "I have become like this, I don't want to live for a long time, but I have only done one thing to live so far, that is, Lin Hu is greedy for life and afraid of death, and he wants to survive desperately, even if he is a lackey of the Yin Ghost King, and I will let him die!"

The word "death" is really categorical, and there is no room for it. Then Niu Xiong turned his eyes to look at Shen Shi, his eyes were deep, and said, "Senior brother, I want you to help me, and if you want to escape, you can only help me this way!"
