Chapter 439: Turning into a Demon
The Taoist priest's resistance to the Demon Pill is indeed stronger, and during the ten days of torture, they rarely lose their temper, if it weren't for the various symptoms in their bodies, it would be difficult for outsiders to find that they were suffering inhumanely. But Taoist priests have almost no chance of surviving in the process of transforming demons, just like those who are the healthiest in health, who have never had a headache and brain fever for decades, and occasionally lost their lives when they contracted a cold.
The six Taoist priests used their own personal experience and life to summarize some similar laws, such as the most affected in the process of transforming demons is Neidan, its rotation speed slows down significantly, early or late ten days later, Neidan begins to have a clear tendency to solidify.
Although the process of the formation of the inner pill is called "condensing qi into the pill", it is not a physical object in the lower dantian, only the moment it is spit out of the body and comes into contact with the air, it will condense into a pale yellow ball the size of a pigeon's egg, after taking the demon pill, the inner pill begins to coagulate in the body, and there is a tendency to become larger, and if you want to leave the lower dantian, the direction is not fixed.
Based on this, a Taoist priest guessed that the solidification and expansion of the Inner Dan was transforming into a demon pill, and it wanted to leave the lower dantian and combine with a certain part of the body, thus becoming a real demon pill. On the fifteenth day of being forced to take the Demon Pill, this conjecture was confirmed, and the two Taoist priests finally lost control of the Inner Dan, and one moved to the top of the head, breaking through the skin, turning into a pair of horns, and the other swam to the arm, causing the fingers to transform into five sharp claws.
But this process was not completed, the horns and claws of the beast had not yet grown, the two Taoist priests fell to the ground and died, after their deaths, the inner dan slowly recovered to its original state, but did not return to the lower dantian, but condensed into a pale yellow ball on the top of the head and in the palm of the hand.
Another common feeling of the six Taoist priests is that they can breathe unclean qi at will, and they do not feel depressed, but feel comfortable, and the effect of unclean qi on the demon pill is similar to the function of heaven and earth aura polishing the inner pill, but the Taoist priests are affected by this and are unable to cast most of the spells, and they have a hunger that has not been seen for many years.
The appearance of the Taoist priests is not obvious, because they are good at controlling all kinds of feelings. But on the fifth day of the demonization, they killed a deer together, and when it was half-cooked, they couldn't wait to eat it, and after that, they still felt hungry, and the more unclean breath they inhaled, the more obvious the hunger felt.
But after the seventh day, the priests succeeded in overcoming the intense hunger pangs by prolonged contemplation.
There is also one thing in common, the Taoist priests did not say much, but all six of them mentioned it, and they all had auditory hallucinations. I often feel like something is ringing in my head. The Taoist priests had consolidated all kinds of senses as early as when they opened the Seven Orifices, and they would never hallucinate unless they were affected by spells, but they all heard the sound of not being able to do zĂ i, and other senses were not affected, and their eyesight, taste, and so on were normal.
The six Taoist priests finally came to the conclusion that the Demon Transformation Pill could be removed, and if they hadn't fallen into the Blood Sea Array's mana restriction in the first place, they would have been able to force the Demon Transformation Pill out. But once the process of transforming the demon begins, the enemy that the Taoist priest has to deal with is Neidan itself, and it becomes a dead loop, and it can no longer be restored to normal.
They had all tried the art of shattering pills. No one was able to complete it, the Inner Dan was no longer pure, and the Dao Heart had also become unstable in the painful torment, and the gap between them and the requirements of the Broken Dan was getting bigger and bigger.
"It's so hard to break Dan. Even if we don't take the Demon Transformation Pill, I'm afraid we won't be able to do it. Maybe the Divine Daoist can stop the process of turning into a demon, and maybe some pills can also help. We speculate. The most important ingredient of the Demon Pill is likely to be the special Demon Pill and some Demon Relics, and the best healing herbs should be Xinghua Feiying and Dinghai Spirit Worm, but they must be taken early. â
The burly Taoist priest of Zhaoshan came from the Dan Medicine Department, and this was the last memory he left, and after that, it became more and more difficult to cast spells, and he had no way to inject memories into the Condensing God Orb.
Xinghua Feiying is the seed of the Xingyun tree in Wangshan, and the Dinghai Spirit Worm is a precious medicinal material that is a specialty of the seabed near Zhaoshan, and the burly Taoist priest has it, and he has tried all kinds of medicines he carries with him, and finally confirmed that these two have an effect, but it is too late.
Mu Xingqiu put away the Condensing Orb, these memories are very important, but there is what he wants to see the most now, Yang Qingyin refused to remove the memories and left with love, she didn't want others to see her pain. The six Taoist priests did not stop it, they did some analysis of this, and they believed that the love tribulation had a clear impact on the demon transformation process, and as for whether this effect was good or bad in the end, and whether other Dao tribulations also had the same effect, they did not know.
Yang Qingyin has not yet completed the last step of the demon transformation process, so it is still unknown, but she did remove an important memory, she remembered Pang Shan and her parents, relatives and friends, but forgot about Mu Xingqiu, and it was completely like seeing him as a stranger. As far as Mu Xingqiu knew, the spell of removing memories could not be cast on its own, and Yang Qingyin had to fight against the transformation of Neidan with all his strength after taking the Demon Transformation Pill, let alone cast a spell on himself.
What happened to her after leaving the six Taoist priests? Why did she prefer to be a spirit demon after erasing some of her memories? Mu Xingqiu didn't find any clues.
He raised his head and looked casually, and found that the sky was already rolling dark clouds at some point, and it was only a short time after noon, but the sky was like evening, and the sound of dense raindrops came from the northwest, and was rapidly approaching his location.
It will be a storm, not mixed with Dao magic and sorcery, but pure natural force.
The torrential rain was pouring down, and Mu Xingqiu first smelled a faint earthy smell, and then was hit hard by the sloping heavy rain.
The rain came and went quickly, and it didn't take long for the sky to clear, and Mu Xingqiu didn't care if he was soaked, and the sword rose and flew towards the valley where the spirit demons had gathered before.
The spirit demon and the demon soldier captives were gone, leaving behind a lot of scattered armor and weapons, they were moving to the north, Mu Xingqiu was about to speed up the pursuit, and found that there was still a living thing in the valley.
A pure black brocade-tailed horse walked slowly between the bones and horns of the beast, and occasionally interested in something, he plucked it twice with his front hooves, and his hind legs were not very flexible, and his steps were slow and heavy, and he was obviously too old.
It wasn't until Mu Xingqiu landed in front of it that the black horse found out about his existence, was taken aback, and stopped suddenly, revealing a bit of the robustness and agility of its youth in an instant, and soon its ears drooped, its speckled lips rolled, and its broken teeth collided gently, and after a while Mu Xingqiu could hear that it was speaking human language in a muffled voice.
ââŚâŚ It's not him, it's you, you haven't changed. Human, what's your name......? Mu Xingqiu. What are you doing here? Ready to cut off my tail? Or do you want my old bones? If you're willing to wait, I'll fall in front of you in a short time. â
The dark horse used to be the leader of the Jinwei horse herd, although he was old, he was not weakened as a spirit animal, not to mention that he had successfully turned into a demon.
"I'm not here to rob things, I'm here to save people. How did you end up like this, why don't you stay with other spirits?"
The black horse shook his head slightly, and after turning into a demon, the changes in his eyes were even richer, so he was also more depressed and sad, "Have you seen King Jin and them? Most of the spirit beasts couldn't bear that kind of pain and died within a few days, and the few spirit beasts that survived were not all able to obtain complete demonic power. â
The black horse turned around and raised one of its hind hooves, a powerful weapon he was once proud of, but now only half was left, and the other half was broken, "It's my demon pill." It became like this a year ago. By the way, you are a Taoist priest, is there a way to help me?"
Mu Xingqiu shook his head, "I don't know much about the art of demon transformation. â
The dark horse sighed. "I can feel that there is still demonic power in these things, and it may be good for me, but I don't know how to absorb them." It's like...... It's like I can smell water underground. But there is no way to dig up the land. â
Mu Xingqiu suddenly remembered a memory of the burly Taoist priest, so he took out a Qiankun bag, thinking of Xinghua Feiying and Dinghai Spirit Worm. He was not the owner of the bag, and it was not easy to remove the contents, so he had to use lightning to break the original mark on the bag, and wait a while before two small wooden boxes flew out of it.
"I don't know if this trick will work, if you're willing to try it......"
"Yes! As long as I can relieve the current pain, I am willing to try anything. The dark horse said immediately.
The burly Taoist priest didn't use up the two herbs, the Dinghai Spirit Worm was okay, and after the Wangshan was closed, Xinghua Feiying used a little less. Mu Xingqiu let the black stallion eat some, and then rubbed two seeds and a small worm into powder and applied it to his hind hooves.
The black horse silently accepted the treatment, lifted the damaged hoof, and after a while slowly lay on the ground, "It seems to have changed a little." â
"I can't guarantee that this change will be good for you. â
The dark horse laughed, which was even stranger than his words, "We used to argue very fiercely, what is a good thing, whether it is raised by a Taoist priest as a stupid spirit beast, or to endure great pain to gain the wisdom of the demon clan? â
The black horse's breathing was a little heavier, and some fresh blood flowed out from the damaged hooves, which quickly stopped again, which was a good sign, Mu Xingqiu took the opportunity to ask, "I'm here to find that female Taoist." â
"Yang Qingyin, I remember her, didn't she always go to Muma Valley to find you? She can send out beautiful fireballs, I remember it very clearly. â
"How could she join the spirit demon? â
"Yi Shijun sent her here. â
"You mean the dragon demon?"
"Well, we are used to calling her Yi Shijun, she said that Yang Qingyin is in danger, only King Jin can save her, and Yang Qingyin may be of great help to the spirit demon. I think Yi Shijun is bragging, Yang Qingyin woke up, not only forgot some things, but also forgot most of the Dao, which didn't help us much at all. â
"Why can only King Jin save her?" Mu Xingqiu was very surprised, in his opinion, although King Jin was powerful, he had never learned how to use it, and he had no power to save people.
There was a hint of tenacity in the dark horse's eyes, and the two herbs had taken effect, bringing new pain, and he was forcibly holding back.
"After turning into a demon, we can all turn into human form, it's just that we prefer the way we used to. The human form of the spirit demon is not arbitrary, and many things can affect the final appearance. King Jin is probably too deeply influenced by the old jujube red horse, he actually became your appearance, it can't be said to be exactly the same, but it's really similar, the first time I saw you just now, I almost admitted my mistake. Yi Shijun said that if you want to forget a person, you must face this person, and this is the role of King Jin, because you were not there at that time. â
Mu Xingqiu was silent.
