Chapter 145: Mutation
With a "whimper", a terrible scream of evil ghosts immediately erupted in the three-color light cluster, which made the blood veins of the person who heard it swell all over his body, and the blood flowed backwards, like a wild horse that had escaped from control.
And not far away, with a rapid coughing sound of "gurgling", I saw Zhang Peng's face pale, and his body involuntarily leaned forward as if he had been hit hard. Then the corner of its mouth opened, and a bloody arrow erupted from its mouth, landing on the black ground not far away, dyeing it a scarlet color. But for some reason, these scarlet bloods, the moment Fang touched the ground, began to fade in the blink of an eye, and gradually disappeared without a trace in less than a few breaths, as if it had never appeared.
However, compared to this strange place on the ground, Zhang Peng still didn't notice it, and saw his ten fingers quickly go to several key places such as his chest and abdomen, and he immediately closed his eyes and crossed his knees without hesitation, showing that he was extremely focused.
And at the moment when he closed his eyes, the three-color light cluster in the sky didn't know whether it was the power exhausted or the mission was completed, it flashed twice in the air and then turned into a little spiritual light and dispersed, but in less than a breath, it disappeared without a trace.
Not only that, but with the disappearance of the three-color aura, along with the sultry ghost cry and the headless ghost body several feet large, disappeared along with it. But it was also at this moment that the blue points of light that had been injected into the ghost shadow at the beginning did not dissipate because of the disappearance of the ghost shadow for some reason, but somehow appeared out of thin air again, and then flew towards the three-foot-tall ghost shadow grass like a thousand rivers returning to the sea, and disappeared into the grass in a blink of an eye, and disappeared without a trace.
And thanks to the continuous injection of this blue point of light, the Ghost Shadow Grass, which was originally more than three feet tall, was slowly undergoing some unknown changes. I saw that its original sword-sharp and open leaves became smaller and sharper, and the color became more jet-black and deep, as if it had been thrown into an ink tank and had been completely penetrated.
What's even more bizarre is that at this time, the small gray-brown unknown lines like hairs are spreading rapidly from the roots of the grass to its body, and within a few breaths, the leaves of its whole body are covered, and it is still rapidly spreading towards the coral-like trunk at the top of the grass
After a cup of tea, Zhang Peng's eyes opened, and then he stood up as if nothing happened, and after looking around casually a few times seemingly unintentionally, he muttered to himself in an inaudible voice:
"I didn't expect a guardian soul to be so tricky, I think that if an ordinary monk in the late stage of the foundation building period came here, let alone take grass, I am afraid that he would not even be able to save his life, but he would add nourishment to this grass out of thin air. But since you've met me, hmph, this time to make such a big move, it's better to take advantage of the fact that your divine sense has not sensed that there are other ghost clans around, and hurry up to take the grass and leave, and the province has a lot of long nights. ”
After saying this, Zhang Peng's body flashed with a fiery red aura, and the person disappeared without a trace in the same place. The next moment, more than ten feet away, its figure appeared again, but only for a moment, its figure disappeared again. By the time his figure was revealed again, he had already appeared half a foot away from the ghost grass.
However, although this grass was close at hand, Zhang Peng did not immediately dig up the ghost shadow grass as he had planned before, but stared at the ghost shadow grass with the pupils of his eyes shrunk. Although he hadn't looked at it closely, he had observed the general appearance and size of the grass.
He clearly remembered that before the ghost was killed, the grass was only three feet tall, and its color was also gray-black. At this time, the body of this ghost shadow grass not only grew to more than five feet tall, but its whole body was even more jet black, completely blending into the gray dead air around it. Thinking that if it weren't for the spiritual light in his hand, he would have found this grass figure here at this time, which was no less than a needle.
And this was not the reason for him to stop immediately, what really puzzled and scared him was the silver lines of those thin hairs on the leaves at this time. I saw that these unknown lines were like blood vessels all over the entire tall body of this grass at this time, and they were like the blood veins in the body of a giant beast beating, and they quickly spread and covered the coral-like branches at the top of this grass in a subtle and continuous trembling.
Although Zhang Peng except for Xiao Ran's brief introduction to the special surname of this grass before, he didn't know what the changes of this grass were at this time. But in terms of his common sense as an immortal cultivator, this did not prevent the illness from affecting his judgment. In his opinion, there is only one possibility for this kind of change in this grass, and that is mutation.
According to the information recorded in the classics, whether it is the immortal cultivator himself or the demon beast, spirit plants and other things, as long as the conditions are met, there is the possibility of mutation.
And once a mutation occurs, whether it is an immortal cultivator, a demon beast, or a spirit plant, etc., it will undergo its earth-shaking changes, and it has some special abilities that it originally had and that it did not have.
As far as the mutated spirit beasts that Zhang Peng could know about the Immortal Relic Sea, there was no record that he didn't know how many, but there were hundreds of cases in the classics he collected. Although the number of mutations seems to be quite a lot, according to the records of those classics, whether it is an immortal cultivator, a demon beast, a spirit plant and other things, the size of their abilities after the mutation is very different, and it is different.
If there is a demon beast before the mutation, it can still be a fierce flame, with a magic weapon that is difficult to hurt, destroying mountains and destroying the earth, and after the mutation, its original thick skin and thick flesh, the magic weapon is difficult to hurt the demon body is in vain overnight, but there are some more with tracking, exploration or retreat, concealment and other almost small pitiful auxiliary powers, compared with the loss of its mutation, it can be described as a difference between cloud and mud, and it is not worth it.
Some are obviously different, according to the records, there was once a magic tree in the Sea of Immortal Relics, which is said to have undergone an anomaly during the Great War of the Ancient Gods and Men after inadvertently absorbing the blood of too many high-level monks and some heaven and earth spiritual objects that did not belong to this realm.
Later, under the nourishment of its heaven and earth spiritual power, after tens of thousands of years, it finally turned into a humanoid dryad, with a profound Taoism. In order to be able to make its own rapid advancement, it is said that during the ancient period, he hunted and killed the demon tribe on a large scale, and created boundless killing to obtain a large amount of spiritual essence, and finally because the killing was too heavy, it provoked the joint encirclement and suppression of the god monks of the two races, and was stopped in ancient times.
However, when this demon tree was surrounded and suppressed, its path had already been completed, and its magical powers were far beyond the imagination of the monks of the two races. In the process of being surrounded and suppressed, he unexpectedly killed a human god and seriously injured a demon god one after another. In the end, he was seriously injured and possessed, and seeing that there was no hope of escaping, the self-detonation demon body once again caused the two god-transforming monks to fall, and the price of the serious injuries of the two god-transforming monks was stopped in ancient times, which can be called the most tragic battle after the god-man war.
In terms of the human race, according to the classics, only the Donghua San people who happened five thousand years ago had caused a mutation, and there was no record of what kind of mutation occurred, but it was vaguely mentioned that the Donghua San people got a pill of the Mixed Yuan Temple by chance, which caused a physical abnormality, and finally it was as simple as drinking water and eating on the **, and it advanced to the god transformation period in just a few hundred years, and finally triggered the spiritual world to be introduced, so as to ascend to the spiritual world.
The records of other human races are all about the spirit beasts raised by their human race, and the most recent of them is the owner of the insect breeding technique that Zhang Peng once got in the underground auction, and it is said that the reason why the spirit insects of the heavenly insects are so powerful is also because of their people in an expedition, after their spirit insects devoured a mysterious substance, they underwent a mutation, and finally under the continuous feeding of the heavenly insects, after repeated mutations, they would become so powerful.
Of course, in addition to this, there are others, among which the most famous ones are a glass dragon and a phantom butterfly that happened tens of thousands of years ago. Let's not talk about the Phantom Sky Butterfly, let's just say that this glass dragon is said to have been just a black-scaled dragon at first, but for some reason, it eventually turned into a glass dragon that can spit out the flame that is said to be something that only Suzaku can cast. Although this Liyan is not pure, and its power is only thirty or forty percent of that of Suzaku, it is by no means something that ordinary god-transforming monks can provoke, and thus become a legendary existence.
And the Phantom Sky Butterfly is even more miraculous, it is said to be able to transform everything in the world, deduce the truth of the origin, and make it impossible for people to identify it at all, so as to reach the level of confusing the real with the fake. And because of this, it is almost impossible to trap it with any formation prohibition, and almost all of the formation prohibitions have become ornaments in its eyes. In ancient times, he frequently shuttled through various forbidden places of various sects and sects, and stole a lot of good things. Even several large sects were stolen because of it, which led to the tragedy of destroying the sect and became the spirit of Weihe for a while.
Almost as he thought of this, he stared at the ghost shadow grass full of silver lines in front of him, and even with Zhang Peng's state of mind, his breathing couldn't help but increase a little, and his heart thumped a little faster.
However, feeling the gray dead air surging madly around him, looking at the almost faint black light in his hand, the corners of Zhang Peng's mouth moved slightly, and then he muttered to himself with a hint of crying and laughing.
"It seems that this ghost shadow grass can only hold on to one cup of tea, no matter whether this ghost shadow grass is successful or not, I must take it down within ten years of half a tea, otherwise it will no longer be whether it is successful or not, but a member of the mutation here that I want to succeed. ”
After saying this, Zhang Peng raised his hand and slapped the storage bag on his waist, and suddenly a hideous-looking, strange-looking, ugly giant ape-like puppet immediately appeared beside him. Then Zhang Peng slapped the giant ape's abdomen with one hand, and suddenly there was a "jam", and a fist-sized dark pavilion immediately bounced out of the giant ape's seemingly smooth and abnormal abdomen. The mechanism that came out of this puppet was actually located in its abdomen.
Then Zhang Peng pinched the trick with one hand, and after shooting a few fiery red spiritual lights at the giant ape, his figure retreated towards a dozen zhang away without stopping. (To be continued.) )
