Chapter 741: Weird Self-Protection Mechanism

Standing in the ruins at the foot of Chiling Mountain, Li Muyang looked solemn.

Shen Yan has arrived safely at Tianyuan Continent and met with Liuli Fairy and the others. This is good news.

When Li Muyang finished "The Capital of Demonic Mist", he asked Nie Yubing, the last princess of the Tianyuan Dynasty and also the descendant of the evil lineage, to take care of the people of the Blood Lotus Sect who might arrive in the Tianyuan Continent.

It was an extremely dangerous task for Shen Yan and her group to cross the foggy sea and go to Tianyuan Continent.

The foggy sea is treacherous and mysterious. The only things Li Muyang knows about are the Dragon Fairy, the many ancient ghost soldiers commanded by the Dragon Fairy, and the immortal holy spirits of the underworld.

Even Qingye Zhenren, who was known as the number one person in the world, had been missing for a long time after stepping into the foggy sea.

Li Muyang was not sure whether Shen Yan and her group could successfully cross the sea of ​​fog.

Now seeing the traces left by Shen Yan in the ruins, Li Muyang breathed a sigh of relief.

But what followed was a deep confusion.

The Ancient Resentment Well is the base camp of the evil god. It is not affected by the seal of heaven and earth, and the combat power of the True Immortal level still exists.

Those ancient evil gods sealed here are all extremely powerful and terrifying.

The mere fact that they are projected into the human world is enough to make it difficult for people to resist.

If you want to fight against evil gods, you can only do it in the human world.

Otherwise, if the strongest cultivators in the world, who are currently at the Tianheng Realm, enter the Ancient Well of Resentment and encounter an evil god with the combat power of a True Immortal, they will all die without a burial place.

The power gap is too big.

Fairy Liuli and Shen Yan are not stupid people, they will understand the danger involved.

Why do they risk entering the Ancient Resentment Well even though they know the dangers there?

And I just happened to come to Chiling Mountain...

Li Muyang searched in the mountains, trying to find more traces of the battlefield.

"Could it be that General Zhong has been corrupted and has become a threat to the human world? To the point where he must be killed?"

Apart from this possibility, Li Muyang couldn't think of any other reason.

General Zhong was originally a human being and had a deep understanding of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

If he were to be completely polluted and turned into a demon, even if his power was not strong, the harm he caused could be greater than that of an evil god.

In the ruins, Li Muyang searched carefully, not missing any clues.

Even the coachman Ding Liang was rummaging through the ruins without knowing what was going on. In addition to the ruins of this deserted village, the traces of the battlefield also extended to the Chiling Mountains.

It can be seen that the battle that took place here before was a large-scale melee involving a wide range of areas and a large number of combatants.

Just by carefully examining the sword marks left by the sword practitioners of Xuanjian Sect, Li Muyang was able to confirm that at least thirty people had come.

The number of evil spirits seemed to be greater, and there were more than twenty piles of ashes left by the evil spirits on the battlefield.

These are the ones that have died and been burned to ashes. There are probably even more evil spirits alive.

Then I thought of the demon who had inexplicably come to Heshan Town...

"Could it be that the old general was killed and the evil spirit in his body was scattered?"

Looking at the traces on the battlefield, Li Muyang tried to deduce the results at that time.

The good news is that judging from the traces on the battlefield, Liuli Fairy and the others should have won.

But among the hundreds of evil demons, I don’t know how many of them escaped alone like the Chaos Demon.

During the careful search, the sun gradually set.

Ding Liang reminded carefully: "My Lord, it's getting late, we have to find a town to stay in..."

Spending the night in the wilderness is extremely easy to get killed or encounter evil spirits. This is the consensus of the creatures in the Ancient Grudge Well.

Settlements where the population reaches a certain number will not be killed.

People speculate that the presence of many people can scare away evil spirits.

But it is true that evil spirits are scared away, not that they are scared away by popularity.

In places where a large number of people gather, once people are provoked at night, they will collectively transform into terrifying evil creatures and attack the same target.

Ordinary people who are normal during the day can transform into ferocious evil creatures at night. Hundreds or even thousands of evil creatures rush out to attack crazily, and ordinary evil spirits have to retreat.

"...Why do I feel that this mode is more like a self-protection mechanism evolved by the human race here."

Li Muyang murmured.

I used to think it was scary that the mortals in the Ancient Well of Resentment turned into evil creatures.

But the more I understand, the more I feel that the transformation of the mortals here into evil spirits is like a sophisticated self-protection mechanism.

Evil spirits do not come out during the day, and mortals can move freely.

When evil spirits appear at night, mortals will also become evil spirits, and extremely crazy evil spirits, attacking the same invading target with a clear purpose.

Even a powerful evil creature from the wilderness would have to retreat if it encountered a village where everyone had gone crazy.

"Could this self-protection mechanism also be left by Zhiwei?"

Li Muyang frowned.

By transforming humans into evil creatures, they can avoid being harmed by evil creatures.

This unconventional and weird method is very consistent with Xiaoyecao's character.

If the mortals in the Ancient Well of Resentment did not have a self-protection mechanism to transform into evil creatures after nightfall, they would have died in the long darkness long ago.

As it was getting dark, Li Muyang asked Ding Liang to leave alone and go to the nearest town to spend the night.

He planned to survey the battlefield overnight and look for traces of the evil creatures' escape.

But at this moment, two horses galloped towards them from afar.

The knight on the horse was wearing a scholar's robe and had the amulet of the Jiang family of Red Leaf Valley hanging on his chest. He was obviously a member of the Jiang family.

The noise they made when they arrived in front of the mountain on horseback startled Li Muyang, who was surveying the battlefield in the mountain.

After watching secretly for a while, Li Muyang came out with the coachman Ding Liang to meet the two puppeteers from the Jiang family.

"What are you two doing here?" Li Muyang appeared with the Jiang family's amulet, identifying himself as a friendly force.

It is a bit strange that the puppeteer from the Jiang family appears here.

Could it be that they are also here for General Zhong?

If so, perhaps we can get some information from them.

But after Li Muyang appeared, the two puppeteers immediately dismounted and bowed to Li Muyang very politely.

"No, no, Mr. Jie Zi, the two of us are here to look for you on the orders of the chief priest."

"I heard that Master Jiezi had come to the territory of Guo State after killing evil spirits all the way. He had a conflict with Black Feather Pavilion in Heshan Town. Master Jijiu was extremely worried and wanted to ask Master Jiezi to return to Red Leaf Valley and temporarily avoid the Black Feather Pavilion."

The two puppeteers were very well-mannered and polite.

They talked about the movements of Heiyu Pavilion after the Heshan Town incident.

It turned out that after Li Muyang killed three puppeteers from the Black Feather Pavilion in Heshan Town, the Black Feather Pavilion quickly identified Li Muyang as the murderer through unknown means.

They also found that Li Muyang was wearing the Jiang family's amulet.

So the Black Feather Pavilion, which was unable to track down Li Muyang's whereabouts, sent people to the Red Leaf Valley to find the Jiang family and hold them accountable.
