Chapter 57: The Nine-Headed Worm
Step by step, the heavy and heart-piercing footsteps echoed in the deep cave.
It is as black as ink, and the five fingers of the deep hand are not visible.
A fierce and violent aura came to his face.
The monkey feels like it's in the middle of a stormy sea.
I don't know how much it has sunk.
The footsteps seemed to be always in my ears, never far away, never near.
I don't know how deep this cave is.
The monkey simply stopped sinking, and found a secret place on the stone wall at the edge of the cave and hid it.
In this darkness where the fingers are missing, there is not much difference between hiding and not hiding.
The footsteps, slow and heavy, never stopped.
And this cave seems to have no end.
The monkey lurked silently, waiting.
In the dark, monotonous and heavy footsteps, constantly repeating the cycle.
I don't know how long it took.
In the dark, it was still empty.
The monkey couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart.
It stands to reason that anyone who has been sealed and suppressed for countless years, once they have the opportunity to get out of trouble, one can imagine what kind of madness and desperation it will be.
And this nine-headed insect, the footsteps are not impatient or impatient, and there is no joy in the joy of escaping from the ascension. There is no fear that the cave will be sealed and suppressed again.
Gradually, the monkey couldn't help but feel a little anxious and tormented.
The footsteps seemed to be on the horizon forever, and after listening to it for a long time, the monkey was in a trance.
Suddenly, the footsteps stopped.
The monkey was stunned.
An old voice sounded in front of the monkey.
"Are you waiting for the old man?"
The monkey probed and looked. Most of the cultivators have night vision, but in this cave, the monkey's eyes are still pitch black, and they can't see anything.
I closed my eyes and felt it, but it was still nothing.
"Are you looking for an old man?"
In the darkness in front of him, an orange-red flame suddenly lit up, quietly suspended in the air, emitting a soft light.
A silver helmet and silver armor gradually appeared, although the light was dim, it could not hide the luster of the silver helmet and silver armor deceiving the frost and snow.
And in the armor, there is a scrawny old man.
The old man looked at the monkey calmly.
It's just three feet away from the monkeys.
However, face to face like this, the monkey could not sense the slightest breath of the old man, as if it was nothing.
An unfathomable sensation that makes the monkey creepy.
The old man said to himself, "I've been with the darkness for too long, and I've forgotten the light a little. β
Then he set his eyes on the end of the cavern.
There was a faint glimmer of light there.
"The old man is in the dark, looking to the light, so he can see you. And you are in the light, but you rush into the darkness, and it is naturally pitch black. β
Looking at the monkey, the old man said.
"You're the hydra?" the monkey nervous.
"That's right, it's the old man. The old man replied, his tone was flat, as if he was talking about home, and asked the question just now: "Are you waiting for the old man here?"
Now that it had been exposed, the monkey simply stopped covering it and jumped in front of the old man, blocking the old man's way.
Staring at the old man, the monkey's whole body tensed: "Since I have pulled out the Shenzhen and destroyed the seal, I have the responsibility to keep you here." β
"Why? Since you pulled out Shenzhen, why don't you let the old man out?" said the old man.
The monkey was stunned for a moment and said, "If you are let out, I don't know how many people will be poisoned by you." β
The old man was not annoyed or angry, and stared at the monkey with a strange expression: "You're just a monkey, right?"
The monkey was a little puzzled: "What do you say?"
"You're just a demon, why are you worried about humans?" the old man frowned and said, "Could it be that in the years that the old man has been sealed, humans and demons have been able to coexist peacefully?
The monkey was stunned: "That's not true." β
"Then what are you doing to stop the old man?"
In the dim light, no one noticed the disappointment that flashed on the old man's face.
"In the old man's early years, although his hands were covered with blood, it was all the blood of the human race. Even if the old man goes out, he is looking for King Yu and settling accounts with the human race. The old man doesn't understand, what are you doing as a monkey demon to stop the old man?"
"Dayu is just the Holy Emperor of the Human Race, and he has long been reincarnated. You can't find him. As for the demon race and the human race, even with the heavenly court, they are already as deep as the sea, and they vow not to stand together. If there are more people like you who refuse to stop, the struggle between the demon race and the human race and the heavenly court will never stop. β
"Heavenly Court? It seems that in the years of the old man's absence, many changes have taken place in heaven and earth. The old man said: "Since you have said that the shemales are already hateful, it doesn't matter if there are more." β
After a pause, he sneered: "You are too naΓ―ve to want to stop the war with peace. β
Monkey β gritted his teeth and put on a formation: "Anyway, you can't go out." β
"It's ridiculous, the old man can leave if he wants to, can you stop it?"
After speaking, the old man arched his back slightly, put his hands behind his back, stepped on the void, and walked towards the monkey step by step.
The footsteps were well-proportioned, slow and heavy, as before.
From beginning to end, the old man was as plain as water, and the monkey did not feel the old man's malice, and said softly: "I'm sorry." β
When the spiritual power surges, you will pounce on it.
Unexpectedly, the monkey was fixed in place as if it had been immobilized, motionless.
The monkey could clearly feel that he had not been hit by a spell such as immobilization.
He felt as if he was in a deep, endless universe, and in this universe, he was as small as a speck of dust.
It's not spiritual oppression, it's not momentum deterrence, it's not coercion and suppression.
This is a pure hierarchical suppression.
For example, the little snake sees the dragon. The dragon doesn't care about the little snake, and the little snake will still be scared and can't move.
A thought inexplicably rose in the monkey's heart: "This old man, I'm afraid he has surpassed Da Luo Xian and stepped into that supreme existence...... "Da Luo Xian, in the Sanxing Cave, he has also seen several people, among them the canopy, but none of them have the horror that this old man gave him.
The old man walked past the monkey calmly, stretched out his dry hand, and patted the monkey's shoulder: "The body contains merit, luck is added, born a saint, the future is terrifying, the future is terrifying, the future is terrifying......"
"In contrast, what's the use of mixing elements and being free?"
The old man's tone revealed a sense of sadness and loneliness.
Passing by.
"Huh?"
The old man suddenly sighed.
Turn around and stare at the monkey.
The monkey saw the old man's plain eyes, and suddenly flashed a scorching light.
The old man's voice trembled slightly: "Do you have something hidden in your body?"
The monkey didn't know why, but he thought that he still had a soul-nourishing wood on his body, which should be the hidden spirit thing he said. But seeing the old man's eagerness, the monkey had a bad feeling in his heart.
"You have something hidden on you?" the old man asked again.
The monkey wanted not to respond, but nodded his head in a ghostly manner.
The monkey has changed dramatically, what's going on?
Why didn't his body obey his will?
The old man slapped his palm on the monkey in the air.
The monkey was frightened and inexplicable, but it was not injured.
Just as he was in doubt, the soul nourishing wood in his arms suddenly flew out on its own.
The old man took a handful of soul-nourishing wood and looked at it excitedly in his palm.
He sniffed it on the tip of his nose again.
Intoxicated.
"That's right, there is indeed a pure innate soul. β
"What are you going to do?" cried the monkey.
"I might as well tell you that the old man has been sealed for countless years. Over the years, in addition to being full of anger and unwillingness at the beginning, and then thinking that he couldn't get out anyway, Suo Xing didn't think about it so much, let go of his obsession, and gradually, his mood became much calmer. You see, in this cave, there is a lot of anger that the old man vented, and because he couldn't vent, he accumulated in the cave. It's just that creation makes people, the old man vents his anger and lets go of his obsession, and the realm is sublimated to the mixed yuan realm. But the old man's cultivation is to feed on the soul and refine the soul to nourish the blood. For countless years, the old man has no soul to eat, no source of strength, and he is already dying of starvation, running out of oil. β
"Refining souls and cultivating blood?"
The monkey's heart trembled.
The old man said to himself: "When I heard you say that King Yu is dead, the old man's heart is a little less. Even if you go out, you won't live long. The old man is just a mixed immortal who has run out of oil and is about to die. β
"I just want to go out and take a look at the sunshine again. β
The old man's eyes suddenly lit up: "It's just that with this soul, everything is different." β
"There are three kinds of souls: heavenly souls, earth souls, and human souls. With the old man's current state, no matter how much he eats human treasures and earth souls, it is useless to this empty shell. The foundation of this body has been destroyed for thousands of years. There is only a heavenly soul, a natural soul, and it is not long after birth, pure and unblemished, and the soul power is abundant and powerful. Only then can the old man's body come back to life. That kind of thing can be encountered but not sought, and the old man had no hope. It's just that I didn't expect the old man to encounter this soul-nourishing wood, and the soul in it, the old man can feel, is exactly what the old man needs. β
"This is the heavens that do not kill me, the heavens that do not kill me. β
The old man's laughter shook the cave.
