Volume 2 Chapter 144 Old Acquaintances

When they set off the next day, Yuan Wuji and Ma Xie glanced at each other, and they both felt that the person from last night had been following them all along.

"Take a chance and try his bottom line. Ma Xie whispered to Yuan Wuji, and Yuan Wuji understood the wind and let the two treasure hunting rats stay in place, waiting for the person behind him to come up.

Ma Xie deliberately walked to an open place, where the trees were scarce and there was no way to hide, which was a good opportunity to find out the person behind him.

Sure enough, when Ma Xie walked to this clearing, the man behind him also stopped.

The news from the treasure hunt rat revealed that the man was hiding at the edge of the clearing and had not left, so it was certain that he was following the horse evil.

Ma Xie smiled, the level of this person's tracking is too poor, he was discovered so easily, it seems that he is not a professional killer, otherwise Ma Xie has enough reason to suspect that this person is the person sent by Kong Shujian to hunt him down!

It's a pity that according to the situation at this time, the person behind him is not a powerful character, but Ma Xie does not allow anyone to follow him all the time like this.

Ma Xie suddenly turned around and looked straight into the depths of the woods!

The man saw Ma Xie's gaze and knew that he had been discovered, so he turned and ran.

Who knew that a lightning-like figure appeared in front of him, it was a monster that had always looked like a cat, not a cat, a mouse, and a mouse, standing in front of him with bared teeth.

Then he only felt a tightness in his neck, and it turned out that Ma Xie had already pinched his neck in his hands.

"Don't move, or you'll break your neck. Ma Xie's fingers used force to jam the man's neck in his hand.

"What a monster are you!" Yuan Wuji, who was facing the man, shouted loudly after seeing the person's appearance clearly.

Ma Xiezheng felt strange, what was Yuan Wuji shouting? He heard the man tremble and say, "Ma Shaoxia, it's me, Qi Jun, I have no malice!"

"Qi Jun?" Ma Xie searched for the name in his mind, and finally remembered that it was this guy who attacked Zhong Mengqiu's brother Zhong Yuan, and he had a relationship with him.

Ma Xie let go of Qi Jun, and Qi Jun sat on the ground with a buttocks.

"Why are you here, and what are you doing with me?" asked Ma Xue.

"Last night...... I was the one who snatched your deer leg last night. Qi Jun said, with no expression on his face.

"I know, you've been wandering around me, what the hell do you mean, are you trying to assassinate me?"

"No, no, no...... I just happened to bump into you, and I was a little curious about what you were doing here, so I followed you. Qi Jun hurriedly explained, he knew that Ma Xie's strength was already far above him, and he didn't want to be misunderstood.

Ma Xie could see that Qi Jun was telling the truth, so he didn't embarrass him anymore, but he was still curious about why Qi Jun appeared here, and his two little followers were gone.

"They...... They are all dead......" Qi Jun suddenly cried: "I am sorry for them who died to protect me!"

It turned out that not long ago, Qi Jun encountered a major accident, a vicious person suddenly wanted his life, and this person's cultivation was completely like a god to Qi Jun.

Fortunately, although Qi Jun is very ugly, his brain is not stupid, and he discovered this person's plan early, so he escaped with two of his subordinates.

It's a pity that the man's subordinates chased after him, and the two subordinates big-headed ghosts and fine insects sacrificed their lives to cover Qi Jun's escape.

"Those two subordinates of yours are really affectionate and righteous to you!" Ma Xie sighed.

Qi Jun wiped his tears and said, "They are not my subordinates, they are my best brothers and friends. The three of us grew up together at the hands of the Blood Killing Ancestor, and then I don't know why I was chosen as the Ancestor, phew! What godson is the old devil, so they ...... That's what they did to me...... Maintain it like that. ”

Hearing Qi Jun's words, Ma Xie seemed to have guessed a few points: "Then the big villain who chased and killed you was the blood killing ancestor?"

Qi Jun nodded: "Yes, fortunately, the big-headed ghost found out early, so we escaped early, the old demon is in retreat again, and can only send his eldest disciple Blue Devil to chase and kill me, I never expected that in order to let me survive, my two brothers actually pretended to be me to stop Li Xue, so I escaped here......"

"Why did the Blood Killing Ancestor hunt you down? Didn't he always love you very much? Did you do something sorry for that old devil?" or what did you know about him?" Ma Xie asked.

But Qi Jun shook his head firmly, saying that he hadn't done anything to be sorry for the old devil, but when it came to why the old devil killed him, Qi Jun was vague and refused to tell the truth, and finally under the coercion of Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji, he told the truth in a hurry.

It turned out that the reason why the Blood Killing Ancestor chose Qi Jun as his godson was for a great reason!

The physique of the Blood Killing Ancestor is very special, and it is one of the one hundred and eight strange bodies, the "Blood Thorn Body".

The so-called One Hundred and Eight Strange Bodies is a term among cultivators, and it is a general term for those special physiques.

Generally, cultivators with these special physiques either practice faster than ordinary people, or they can practice a special kind of exercises, or they will have special abilities after practicing to a certain extent...

In short, cultivators with these special physiques are generally called geniuses, and their achievements are much higher than those of ordinary cultivators.

As long as the Blood Thorn Body possessed by the Blood Killing Ancestor continuously absorbs the energy produced by a plant called "Blood Thorn Immortal Grass", it will continue to climb the realm, and the "Blood Thorn Fairy Grass" is a very precious medicine that can only grow on the land stained red by the blood of cultivators.

People with this kind of physique are extremely ugly, and the facial features on their faces will be distorted together, and in order to get more abilities of the "Blood Thorn Immortal Grass", the Blood Killing Ancestor is like a murderer, and this physique is also notorious.

However, after all, the Blood Killing Ancestor had grown up, and he was a figure in the realm of "breaking through the three levels" in the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm, and his whereabouts were secretive, and he had a group of desperate subordinates, so the three sects in the north couldn't help him.

Recently, the Blood Killing Ancestor has reached the last moment of the second level of the "Three Levels", and after passing this level, you can enter the third level.

However, the third level requires the "furnace level", which needs to be used as a furnace to withstand the forging of "water and fire" in the body, so as to condense the "inner dan".

This level is the last level of the Qi Refining Realm, and it is also the most painful level, because this level is completely unable to rely on external forces, and can only use one's own body and will to bear the torment of water and fire.

In the process of rising in the early years of the Blood Killing Ancestor, he caused a lot of trouble, and also suffered a lot of secret injuries, and he failed to break through twice because of these secret injuries.

But everyone's body has a limit, after the Blood Killing Ancestor failed to break through twice, he knew that his body could only withstand the huge aura impact of one breakthrough at most, so he had to make sure that nothing went wrong at the last chance.

So he meditated hard and found a way to "steal the sky and change the day", that is, to replace himself as a "melting pot" with a person with a physique exactly the same as his own, and use a special secret method to connect the soul of this body with himself when he broke through, and then transfer all the injuries suffered during the breakthrough to this body.

This method is a secret technique in the evil way, called the "Drifting Ghost Spell".

Those masters who are afraid of problems when breaking through often raise such a "stand-in" for themselves, as long as the stand-in grows to the Qi refining realm, they can cast spells to break through.

And the only fate of these stand-ins is death, not only the physical death, but also the complete destruction of the soul.

Obviously, Qi Jun has the same physique as the Blood Killing Ancestor, and his bloodline is quite strong, but his cultivation talent is a bit unsatisfactory. It took a lot of effort for the Blood Killing Ancestor to bring Qi Jun to the first layer of the Qi Refining Realm.

When he learned that he was just a "stand-in" for the Blood Killing Ancestor, Qi Jun left the Blood Killing Ancestor's lair without hesitation, and it happened that the Blood Killing Ancestor was making the final preparations for the breakthrough at that time, so he couldn't notice it in time.

And Qi Jun has always been favored by the Blood Killing Ancestor, and no one dared to stop him when he left the Blood Killing Ancestor's lair.

It's just that the disciple who has followed the blood killing for many years, the Blue Devil has discovered the abnormality, so he reported to the ancestor and caught up after he got his life.

However, the ancestor ordered that Qi Jun should not be harmed by a single hair, and the Blue Devil had many means but could not use it, coupled with the desperate obstruction of Qi Jun's two good brothers, Qi Jun escaped.

Speaking of this, Qi Jun couldn't cry anymore, he relied on his special identity on weekdays, so he did evil, and he never put those two brothers in his eyes, just as they were two doglegs.

But it was these two doglegs who saved his life, and it wasn't until the end that he realized who was really good to him in the world.

Qi Jun has been hiding in this forest these days, and the day before yesterday he found someone entering, thinking that it was chasing his pursuers, but after he hid in the dark and watched, he found out that it was Ma Xie and his party.

Qi Jun remembered Ma Xie, he originally thought that Ma Xie was just a martial artist, and he was already a cultivator of the Qi Refining Realm, so he should be able to deal with it, so he was ready to kill Ma Xie and rob some things and belongings.

Fortunately, Qi Jun was naturally timid, even in the face of a "martial artist", he was unwilling to take risks, so he secretly ambushed for a long time before snatching it.

And after he succeeded, he found that Ma Xie did not chase after him, thinking that Ma Xie was afraid of himself, so he continued to follow Ma Xie on the second day to see if he could completely solve Ma Xie by looking for an opportunity, but he didn't expect that the opportunity did not wait, but what he waited for was Ma Xie's steel-clawed hand.

"You're really bad and can't get to the point, you can't even see that the other party's cultivation is so much higher than you, and you still want to sneak attack?

I saw Qi Jun's distorted face squeezing out a trace of unwillingness: "I don't want to run away, I want to take revenge! I want to avenge my two brothers!"

"What? It's up to you?!" Yuan Wuji said exaggeratedly, "You should know yourself! You are not the material for cultivation, you are just a cultivator who has been cultivated by the elixir and methods of the Blood Killing Ancestor!"

"I know! So what? Am I just hiding like a mouse for the rest of my life?! I've been in chaos for half my life, and I don't want to be ridiculed anymore! Even if I die, I will die on the road of revenge, not on the way to escape!" The flesh on Qi Jun's face fell together, and it could be seen that he had summoned great courage to say this.

Yuan Wuji wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ma Xie.

He is also an avenger, he knows this mood, this is an emotion that others cannot understand, and only when he is in it can he know the horror of this mood.

Revenge is not just a goal, but also a means to give the Avenger power.

It's a pity that if you indulge in the power and pleasure that revenge brings to you, you will fall into eternal darkness and can't extricate yourself, only enjoy the process of revenge, but don't consider the consequences of revenge, and after the revenge is successful, only endless emptiness remains.

Just like Liang Jiu, whom Ma Xie knew, he was completely immersed in this darkness, and the rest of his life would be spent in revenge, and when his enemy died, his life would lose its meaning.

Of course, this power is also an anesthetic, which can make people forget everything around them, and immerse themselves wholeheartedly in what they think is "revenge", while ignoring the precious things around them.
