Chapter 161 - 161: Creepy
In fact, if he wanted to deal with these mutated lotus seeds and leaves, the more convenient way was to use a few more core soul energy to wipe away the remaining consciousness.
However, Chen Fei’s previous core soul energy had almost caused him to have a concussion. If he were to use it a few more times, it would undoubtedly destroy the foundation of his mind.
Eating the Dreamlike Lotus was meant to increase his soul power, but it damaged his soul foundation. No one would willingly do such a thing.
“Why don’t we hand these over to the sect?”
The power of the Dreamlike Lotus had cast a shadow on Guo Linshan’s heart. It could be said that all the warriors present had been influenced by the Dreamlike Lotus.
Even now, Guo Linshan was not sure if the Venomous Toad they encountered was real or if it was an illusion created by Dreamlike Lotus.
“The pill furnace isn’t here. Otherwise, it would be safer to refine them again.”
Chen Fei felt it was a pity that he didn’t bring the alchemy furnace. However, the space was limited, and carrying the pill furnace would have caused other problems.
As for carrying the pill furnace in, that was even more unrealistic. It was too conspicuous and would make them an easy target in this dangerous place.
“Then what do you plan to do?” Guo Linshan asked curiously.
“Use other herbs to grind into a medicinal liquid. When the time comes, pour it on the lotus seeds and leaves. They should be able to be swallowed.”
Chen Fei had a few plans in mind. Whether they were feasible or not, he would only know after testing them out.
Guo Linshan nodded as if he understood something. Guo Linshan was not familiar with alchemy, so he couldn’t fully grasp the details.
Meanwhile, tens of miles away, Sun Zonghai was hiding in a small cave.
The entrance was narrow, but the inside was extremely wide. In order to prevent the cave from being blocked, Sun Zonghai had personally dug a small tunnel leading to other places.
At this moment, Sun Zonghai was sitting cross-legged on the ground. His body trembled slightly as inner strength circulated rapidly within his body. After a long time, Sun Zonghai opened his eyes and exhaled.
Sun Zonghai’s face appeared somewhat pale. That day, in order to escape Chen Fei’s pursuit, he used the movement technique, Ten Sceneries of the Heavenly Lake, which caused Sun Zonghai’s vitality to be greatly damaged and the blood essence in his body to be severely depleted.
After so many days, he had consumed many decades-old herbs, but Sun Zonghai had only improved slightly. However, he was still far from his peak condition.
Sun Zonghai recalled what had happened that day, and his eyes could not help but reveal a vicious look. Because of Chen Fei’s sudden appearance, the direction of the matter had changed drastically.
“Yanyan, they are the culprits. 1 will avenge you.”
Sun Zonghai thought of the look in Yu Yanyan’s eyes when she looked at him at the end. Sun Zonghai didn’t think that it was disappointment. Sun Zonghai believed that Yu Yanyan wanted him to escape.
“There will be a chance, there will definitely be a chance!” Sun Zonghai murmured.
From tomorrow onwards, Sun Zonghai decided to go out and find a team to join. If he had the chance to meet Chen Fei and the others, he would take the opportunity to incite others to surround and kill Chen Fei and the others.
“This location is not bad. I used to like living like this.”
A voice suddenly sounded outside the cave. A figure grabbed the edge of the cave with one hand and stuck his head in. There was an inexplicable smile on his face as he looked at Sun Zonghai.
“Who are you?”
Frightened by the sound, Sun Zonghai did not notice anything at all when he was already at the entrance of the cave. Moreover, the person in front of him was clearly at the Visceral Tempering realm, so why didn’t he sense the metal token on his body?
“Who am I? In the past, I didn’t have a name, but after living in this body, you can call me Yu Doushan now.”
It was as if Yu Doushan did not have any bones. The small hole could not stop him at all. Yu Doushan walked in very easily.
Sun Zonghai couldn’t help but take a step back. Yu Doushan gave Sun Zonghai a bad feeling as if he was being targeted by his natural enemy.
It was as if the person in front of him was not a human at all but a demon in human skin.
“Don’t come over again, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
Sun Zonghai shouted. Yu Doushan’s words didn’t match up, and Sun Zonghai felt uncomfortable listening to them. Moreover, Sun Zonghai didn’t want to get too close to Yu Doushan.
Sun Zonghai instinctively felt that if the two of them got too close, something terrible would happen.
However, Sun Zonghai could tell that Yu Doushan was only at the early-stage of the Visceral Tempering realm based on his aura. The two of them had similar cultivation levels. Although Sun Zonghai was injured, he was not so afraid.
Unless Yu Doushan was as abnormal as Chen Fei and had battle prowess that far exceeded his cultivation.
“You are very afraid, but you are also very angry. I felt your anger just now, so 1 came over. Of course, this thing also helped.”
As Yu Doushan spoke, he suddenly opened his mouth. The corners of his mouth split open all the way to his ears. His mouth was wide open, and a jade token was slowly spat out from Yu Doushan’s throat.
Sun Zonghai immediately felt the mutual connection between the jade tokens, but now, this matter was no longer what Sun Zonghai was most concerned about.
The moment Yu Doushan opened his mouth, Sun Zonghai sensed an aura that did not belong to a human. Yu Doushan was definitely not human!
Run!
This thought flashed through Sun Zonghai’s mind, and Sun Zonghai did the same.
The long spear in his hand was like a shooting star as it pierced toward Yu Doushan’s face.
White Horse Spear!
This was the fastest spear technique that Sun Zonghai had mastered. If the enemy was distracted, the spearhead would have already pierced into his body.
Sun Zonghai never thought that he could hurt Yu Doushan. He only wanted to use this move to force Yu Doushan back temporarily so that he could have a chance to escape.
“Tsk!”
The spear in Sun Zonghai’s hand pierced into Yu Doushan’s face. Blood splattered everywhere as Yu Doushan’s head was pierced through from the front to the back by the spear tip.
Sun Zonghai was stunned. This was just a feint. He had never thought that he could do anything to Yu Doushan. Sun Zonghai held the spear in his hand. The muscle memory that he had developed from years of martial arts cultivation allowed him to quickly shake the spear in his hand.
Sun Zonghai was not weak. On the contrary, he was very strong. Otherwise, he would not have become a legacy seed of Long Rainbow Sect and entered the mystic realm.
The force of the spear’s vibration was so great that even if it was a demon beast if its body was pierced and shaken like this, its wound would explode.
“Buzz!”
Before the spear could even shake, a hand grabbed the spear.
“You hit me, so I can hit you now.”
Yu Doushan slowly extended his head out of the spear. The rotten skin on his face was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Sun Zonghai’s eyes slowly widened as he watched Yu Doushan recover completely in the blink of an eye. Sun Zonghai moved his spear, but it did not move at all. Sun Zonghai wanted to abandon the spear, but he realized that his hand was stuck to the spear for some reason.
Sun Zonghai was shocked to find that his entire body had stiffened. He couldn’t even move his eyes. He could only stare at Yu Doushan.
“You hit me, and 1 hit you again. However, I won’t hit you. Your physical body is still useful.”
Yu Doushan’s face was filled with a stylized smile. At first glance, he didn’t feel anything. However, upon closer inspection, one could see that there was no smile in this smile. It was as if this smile was just an imitation.
Sun Zonghai struggled with all his might, using his inner strength, but there was nothing he could do. Before Sun Zonghai could figure out what Yu Doushan wanted to do, a rabbit jumped into the cave.
The rabbit stared at Sun Zonghai with its blood-red eyes. A creepy feeling suddenly struck Sun Zonghai.
The rabbit jumped in front of Sun Zonghai and suddenly jumped in front of Sun Zonghai’s face. It grabbed Sun Zonghai’s mouth and began to desperately try to get into Sun Zonghai’s mouth.
Flesh and blood splattered everywhere. It was unknown whose flesh and blood it was, but the two slowly fused into one.
Sun Zonghai’s consciousness blurred. In a place where Sun Zonghai could not see, there were already more than ten people standing outside the cave.
Everyone’s cultivation was at the Visceral Tempering realm. Their eyes were red, and there was no human emotion in their eyes. There was only a beast-like coldness.
Beneath the feet of these martial artists, there were dozens of wild rabbits hiding in the grass. They lay dormant quietly without making a single sound.
Fifteen minutes later, Yu Doushan walked out of the cave, followed by Sun Zonghai expressionlessly.
“It’s time to find the next one.”
Yu Doushan looked around and sensed the energy fluctuations coming from the iron plate. He opened his mouth and swallowed the iron plate.
“You hit me, and 1 hit you. It’s only right and proper!”
Yu Doushan’s cold murmurs drifted in the wind. A dozen warriors flashed and followed behind Yu Doushan, running forward.
Halfway up the mountain.
“Senior Sister, why don’t we go down the mountain? This place is too abnormal. If we continue walking like this, I’m afraid we’ll be discovered.”
Two figures carefully hid behind the rocks and looked outside. One of them said in fear.
“We’ve already come this far, how can we turn back now! As long as 1 get that mystical ingredient, I might be able to directly break through to the Aperture Tempering realm. At that time, even in this vast mystic realm, there’s nowhere I can’t go!” Shen Fengxiu said in a deep voice, her eyes filled with fanaticism.
Although this mystic realm rejected the Aperture Tempering realm, if one broke through to the Aperture Tempering realm in the mystic realm, the rejection of the mystic realm was very small because the energy was not stable yet. One could still stay in the mystic realm for a few days.
With the strength of the Aperture Tempering realm, even if there were many changes in the mystic realm, the Aperture Tempering realm cultivator could still do whatever they wanted.
And it was precisely because of the mystic realm’s mutation that led to a huge increase in the number of mystical ingredients that Shen Fengxiu made up her mind. As long as she broke through to the Aperture Tempering realm, even those veteran Aperture Tempering realm cultivators would be envious of the mystical ingredients here.
Due to her cultivation technique, Shen Fengxiu was extremely sensitive to the aura of the mystical ingredient. She could sense that the mystical ingredient was nearby.
They didn’t need to continue walking to the top of Half Bottle Mountain. As long as they found the mystical ingredient halfway up the mountain and consumed it, Shen Fengxiu would be able to break through.
“With this half-spirit tool, you have to be careful. It’s enough to hide our auras!” Shen Fengxiu consoled as she brushed the hairpin on her head.
“Senior Sister, is it that one?” The junior sister’s eyes suddenly widened as she pointed forward with an excited expression.
Shen Fengxiu turned around and looked. At first, she was still a little confused, but it became clearer and clearer. It was the mystical ingredient she was looking for.
The hairpin on Shen Fengxiu’s head shook violently, but she did not feel anything. She walked towards the mystical ingredient step by step..
