Hell Emperor

Chapter 334 Xia Wei-Animal Poison

After parting ways with Su Miao and others, Xia Wei and her party embarked on a journey to find the Earth Dragon.

They first searched in the barren mountains and ridges with thick earth spiritual veins, but found no trace of the earth dragon. Then they turned their attention to those sparsely populated caves and paradise. As a result, they did not encounter the earth dragon, but they bumped into several demon kings.

The monsters that can become the Demon King all have good intelligence. The Demon King is afraid of Xia Wei's strength. Even if he notices that they have entered his territory, he does not dare to confront them head-on. Until now, Xia Wei and his party are safe. Nothing happened.

After repeated searches to no avail, even Xia Wei couldn't help but feel a little anxious:

"If this continues, how long will it take for us to find the whereabouts of the Earth Dragon? I'm afraid that even if we search all around, we still can't find any Earth Dragon!"

Hua Xiaomei patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Don't worry. In my opinion, we'd better go find someone to ask for directions. As long as there are earthquakes, there must be earth dragons. Maybe the residents around here know something about it." What, people are extremely concerned about the news of the earthquake, and are afraid that the earth dragon will come to them next time. "

Xia Wei nodded. This did sound like a feasible method, at least it was more reliable than slowly exploring on her own.

At this time, Hua Xiaomei seemed a little worried and couldn't help but look at the flying sword that everyone was standing on. The flying sword was about one foot long, much smaller than the flying sword controlled by Shen Qingge. It could barely accommodate three people standing:

"Speaking of which, it's thanks to Sister Xia Wei that she learned how to wield a sword, which saved us from traveling all the way... Ever since we set out, Sister Xia Wei has been wielding a sword without taking a break. Is it really okay? ?”

Xia Wei smiled faintly: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if I'm tired. I'm more worried about Sister He's condition than myself. I must find all the alchemy materials before the deadline!"

Hearing this, Hua Xiaomei was quite emotional. Xia Wei's temperament of putting her family more seriously than herself also reminded her of a person. Xia Wei was indeed taught by that person. Even this point was exactly the same.

Behind the flying sword, Ren Changhong stared at the scene below and couldn't help but smacked his lips: "If I had known that there would be such a busy day, I should have changed into some walking tools in the Mo Luo Temple."

Hua Xiaomei was a little curious. She couldn't exchange any walking aids in Guangwang Palace: "Are there many walking aids that can be replaced in Mo Luo Palace?"

"Of course, as long as you have enough Yin virtue, you can exchange for any walking weapon, from a spirit raft with tens of millions of Yin virtue to a spirit boat with hundreds of millions of Yin virtue. The speed can be said to be faster than the sword control method. It’s even better than that. There is even a flying sword-style walking weapon, which does not require a human to control the sword.”

After a pause, Ren Changhong continued: "Although these walking tools are good, they require a large amount of spiritual stones to operate every time they are activated. Ordinary ghosts simply cannot bear such expenses. Even ghosts and immortals, if The family is not rich enough, and it is easy to be completely wiped out. With all the savings I have accumulated in the Demon Palace, I can only replace it with the lowest-quality walking weapon."

Hua Xiaomei laughed and said, "Don't worry, we have enough 100 million Yin De to meet the cost of walking instruments."

"One hundred million Yin virtues? Really?" Ren Changhong was slightly stunned. She had been a Shura for so long, and she only had tens of millions of Yin virtues. How could an ordinary bastard like Hua Xiaomei get 100 million Yin virtues?

At this moment, Xia Wei, who was wielding a sword, seemed to have discovered something, and interrupted the conversation between the two: "There are signs of smoke below. Judging from the surrounding buildings, it seems to be a village. Let's go down and ask, look around. Is there any news about the earthquake?”

Several people had no objections. The flying sword slowly fell and stopped steadily on the ground. However, the surrounding situation made their expressions change slightly.

Looking around, the village is in a mess. Fires are burning in the houses in the distance, and black smoke is rising into the sky. If you listen closely, you can still hear the demonstrative whispers of wild beasts.

"What's going on..."

Xia Wei was stunned. The situation here seemed to be a little different from what she expected.

At this moment, the sound of movement from behind attracted the attention of several people. Looking out, they saw a man with a stooped body approaching here with a trembling step.

"Do you know what's going on here..."

Xia Wei opened her mouth and was about to ask, but Ren Changhong stopped her and looked at the man solemnly.

"Be careful, he has lost his mind."

As soon as Ren Changhong finished speaking, the man let out a strange scream and bit the crowd. What was waiting for him was a purple light as fast as lightning.

Purple light swept across, and the man was chopped in half. He let out a low, painful roar, and the fierce light in his eyes did not diminish. After struggling for a long time with his upper body, he finally breathed his last.

Hua Xiaomei was startled by the man's actions, while Xia Wei looked confused: "Is he crazy? Why did he attack me?"

"This is...animal-shaped poison? But this is impossible..."

Different from the two of them, Ren Changhong looked solemn and incredulous. Deep in her eyes, there was a hint of fear. She was completely different from the usually confident person.

Xia Wei noticed something strange in her. With Ren Changhong's many years of experience as Shura, he might have discovered something strange, so she hurriedly asked: "Sister Hong, do you know what happened to that person?"

Ren Changhong took a deep breath and then slowly revealed the information he knew: "If I read it correctly, he should have been poisoned by the beast-shaped poison."

"Animal-shaped poison? What is that?" Xia Wei immediately asked.

Ren Changhong did not hide anything and answered truthfully: "The poison of the beast form is a very deadly poison. It will cause people to lose their human mind, forget all the memories of the past, and degenerate into a complete beast. Once infected by this poison, it is difficult to recover. The animal nature in the heart is completely aroused, and all one can do is attack others. Anyone attacked by the poisoned person will also be infected with the poison of animal form and become a beast. "

Xia Wei opened her eyes wide and exclaimed: "There is such a poison?"

If it hadn't been for what Ren Changhong said, Xia Wei would never have believed that there could be such a strange poison in the world. The degree of harm caused by the beast-shaped poison was beyond her expectation.

On the side, Hua Xiaomei discovered something, and couldn't help but twitching her eyes: "Wait a minute, the beast form...could it be the beast form I thought?"

Ren Changhong nodded and confirmed Hua Xiaomei's guess: "You are right, it is the beast shape. This beast shape poison is the poison of the beast shape palace. Generally speaking, only the ghosts in the palace can The Immortal, which is what Shura people call the beast-shaped user, only has it on his body, but now he appears here..." At the end of the sentence, thinking of the reputation of the beast-shaped user, even Ren Changhong couldn't help but cold sweat broke out on his forehead, The strength of the beast-shaped user makes it more difficult to deal with than the ordinary Shura King.

"The Beast Shape Hall? Where is that place?" Xia Wei was puzzled and could only look at the two people beside her for help.

Hua Xiaomei explained: "This beast-shaped palace is one of the two Yama palaces that maintain Xiniu Hezhou. It is much stronger than the Guangwang Palace and the Jinlun Palace. The elephant turtle hand technique you have learned before is From the Beast Shape Palace."

Xia Wei nodded, but there was still one thing she didn't understand: "According to this, shouldn't the ghosts and immortals of the Beast Form Palace be active in the West? How could they come here?"

Ren Changhong sighed: "This is the problem... It seems that the ruins of King Kong City that are about to be opened have also attracted many people who should not come here..."

"King Kong City Ruins..."

Xia Wei understood. Now she finally understood why the beast-shaped palace ghosts and immortals appeared here. After a long time, they were all attracted by the ruins of the Vajra City.

The master of the Underworld Palace can let Su Miao and the others come here, and the master of the Beast-shaped Palace can also send out his own ghost immortals.

While several people were discussing, a few people who had lost their minds heard the noise here and were approaching Xia Wei and his party.

Xia Wei frowned: "Is it really impossible for the people here to recover? Before they were infected with the poison of beast form, they were all living people, but they suffered such a disaster..."

Ren Changhong sighed: "The poison of the beast shape not only affects the bodies of these people, but also erodes their souls. Even after death, they become ghosts and cannot regain their sanity. It should be noted that the beast shape palace is Yama. One of the palaces, when poisons specialize in the soul, from the moment these people are corroded by the beast-shaped poison, they are dead, replaced by only the body occupied by the beast-shaped poison. "

"Even so, there should be a chance for recovery..." Xia Wei couldn't bear it.

Ren Changhong just shook his head: "Among all the Yama Palaces, the ghosts in the Beast Form Palace are the most unpopular. The reason is the almost incurable beast form poison. Once the beast form poison breaks out, in order to To prevent the harm from spreading, we can only eradicate all those infected with the poison of the beast form. If you cannot bear it for a moment, more people will be infected with the poison of the beast form. What if it was not us who were attacked just now, but someone else. What should we do about the innocent people who don’t know?”

"I see."

Xia Wei pursed her lips. Although she couldn't bear it, she also understood that this matter had to be done. Sometimes in order to cure the disease, the entire infected area had to be dug out. Although it was painful, the result was good.

The blazing purple light once again lit up in the depths of Xia Wei's eyes, and the magic light suddenly appeared. No one infected with the disease around him was spared, and the blood dyed the earth red.

Looking at the corpses around her, Hua Xiaomei clicked her tongue, with a lingering fear on her face: "Speaking of which...since the beast-shaped poison targets the soul, will we be infected by the beast-shaped poison?"

Ren Changhong saw her fear and pretended to be serious: "Of course it is possible. If you don't pay attention, you are infected with the poison of the beast form, your soul is corroded, and you lose your mind, then we can only..."

Hua Xiaomei was startled, her already pale complexion became even paler, and she was trembling all over. Seeing this, Ren Changhong waved his hand and smiled: "I'm scaring you, of course it's not that simple to be infected with the poison of animal form. . The higher the cultivation level, the better able to resist the erosion of the beast-shaped poison. Like Xia Wei and I, unless we encounter the beast-shaped user head-on, we don't have to worry about the beast-shaped poison at all, but you don't have to worry about it. So good luck..."

Hua Xiaomei coughed dryly and said quickly: "You're scaring me again, right?"

Ren Changhong didn't answer, just looked at her with helpless eyes, which scared Hua Xiaomei so much that she quickly ran to Xia Wei and asked for help: "Sister Xia Wei, you have to protect me, I can't help you." I don’t want to lose my mind…”

In response, Xia Wei held her hand and replied in a positive tone: "Don't worry, Sister Mei, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."

Xia Wei's solemn answer made Hua Xiaomei a little embarrassed. After all, she was more than twice as old as Xia Wei. When Xia Wei answered like this, she couldn't help but blush. But since Xia Wei said this, so her life was obviously safe and she didn't have to worry about the threat of beast-shaped poison.

Looking at the corpses all around, Xia Wei's face was heavy and she felt bad: "The deaths of these people were all caused by the beast-shaped poison! These people are just ordinary people, there are no practitioners at all, why did the beast-shaped user kill people like this?"

Ren Changhong just said: "You also know that these people are just ordinary people. Does the beast-shaped user need any reason to kill these people?"

Xia Wei was stunned, but still said: "Of course! If there is no reason, why hurt them?"

Ren Changhong did not answer, but said: "If you want to say a reason... maybe there is one. In the eyes of the beast-shaped user, all living beings are suffering. The more people understand and know, the more they will struggle desperately in the sea of ​​suffering and cannot be freed. Only by returning to the most primitive beast form can they get rid of suffering and enjoy happiness. The beast-shaped user is very different from ordinary ghosts. Because of their unique philosophy, even Shura can't talk to them."

Hua Xiaomei scratched her head, a little puzzled: "What kind of philosophy is this? Could it be that people become the kind of people who lose their minds and only know how to attack him? Will the appearance of humans be better than their original appearance? "

Ren Changhong glanced at her: "For the beast-shaped users, it is true. People's pain comes from their own thoughts and feelings. Even immortals can't stand it. Only by forgetting the spiritual wisdom of being a human and degenerating the mind to a state of knowing nothing, naturally they don't understand what pain is. "

Hearing Ren Changhong's remarks, Xia Wei felt that the beast-shaped users were unreasonable: "How could anyone believe such a perverse theory? In order to get rid of pain, are they willing to become a beast that attacks people like this?"

Ren Changhong shrugged and said: "These are all the beast-shaped users' words. In their eyes, the beast-shaped poison is a good medicine to help all living beings get rid of it, but in the eyes of others, the beast-shaped poison is no different from a flood and a beast. "

Xia Wei gritted her teeth, and a firm light flashed in her eyes: "The beast-shaped users are so cruel to others. If I meet them, I will never let them go!"

Hua Xiaomei scratched her head. Looking at Xia Wei's appearance, if she really ran into the beast-shaped user, I'm afraid it would be another fierce battle.

After calming down a little, Xia Wei sighed deeply: "The people here have all had their minds corroded by the beast-shaped poison and have turned into wild beasts. If left alone, they will spread the beast-shaped poison. Some people have already run away with the beast-shaped poison. Let's catch up and put an end to these people!"
