BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72: The Death of Shaman
Chapter 72: The Death of Shaman
Qin Yi nodded, but he had no intention of looking for other steles on such a large mountain. Instead, he looked directly up at the top of the mountain deep in the clouds and mist.
Judging from the current situation, this shaman must have been attacked and unable to go out. Of course, it would be best if he is dead.
If he isn’t dead, he might be healing.
Ye Ling is already jumping around lively after one night of recovery. It could be due to her bloodline, but this shaman has medication to help him. Who knows what his recovery will be like now?
Instead of wasting time looking for the steles everywhere, it would be better to go straight to his house and catch him off guard before he recovers!
If there is a solution, won’t he have it in his house?
After thinking about this, Qin Yi strode up decisively.
Even Liu Su was stunned by his move, then it understood and secretly gave him a thumbs up.
This guy is becoming more and more decisive, and now he has a hint of bravery. Can actual combat hone him to this extent?
Not far up, there were traces of the array all around, but they were damaged.
“The illusion array has been destroyed.” Liu Su said, “I don’t know the specific content of the illusion. Judging from the general rules, the intention is to accept disciple when the person passes the illusion array. Many sects will always have such an illusion array to test the character or wisdom.”
It was obvious that Dong Huazi didn’t make it through this array, and he might even have been frightened during the illusion, so he left.
Qin Yi walked all the way to the top of the mountain. There was a stone house on the top of the mountain, which occupied a large area. It looked to be ruined currently. The roof in the middle had collapsed. The door was blown open, revealing the broken walls inside.
Ye Ling also flew over at this time and saw the desolate scene inside. They looked at each other and walked in slowly.
There were traces of arrays everywhere, including multiple overlapping arrays. Some that were offensive, some were supportive, and some were suppressing the opponents. There were many types, but all of them had been destroyed at this time. Qin Yi looked quite shocked. Fighting in this environment, the opponent who is one realm higher may not have the chance to win.
What’s more, there are endless strange voodoo arts here. The shaman would be hard to deal with when his exact details are unclear.
Who is this opponent? He can actually fight the shaman in his territory without losing.
No wonder this guy can slaughter beastkins this near Beastkin City without being disturbed by the Beastkin Kings. Just the beastkin refining array alone is enough to stop the beastkin army outside. The death of a strong beastkin is an unbearable loss. What’s more, their territory may also be attacked by other beastkin kings.
“Brother, look…” Ye Ling suddenly pulled Qin Yi’s clothes nervously.
Qin Yi followed her gaze and took a breath in shock.
Among the ruins was a piece of human skin… no, the skin, flesh, tendons, veins and internal organs were all there, but without the bones. It was like a pile of rotten flesh.
The skeleton was right next to it. A skeleton with a broken rib was sitting cross-legged in a standard cultivation pose. The ribs were almost completely healed.
“He’s not dead yet!” Qin Yi immediately remembered the Wither Bone Everlasting technique.
This guy’s body was probably damaged, but he actually turned himself into a skeleton to continue to survive!
As if he heard someone speaking, the dark eyes of the skeleton slowly flashed with green phosphorescence as if he slowly opened his eyes.
“Cluck cluck…” The skeleton’s teeth rubbed together, making a harsh sound, “Human and Flying Serpent… you escaped by chance, and you dare to come back here…”
Qin Yi and Ye Ling both took a step back cautiously. This scene was too terrifying. Qin Yi was fine, but Ye Ling’s teeth were chattering. She was obviously frightened and almost ran away.
In fact, Qin Yi didn’t even know how a skeleton made a sound. Where were the vocal cords?
There was no way to judge its strength because it did not have a carrier that could hold “qi”. It probably had an unconventional cultivation method.
Qin Yi was ready to battle. He said slowly, “We have no ill intentions toward Sir. We originally wanted to come to visit you, but why did you suddenly attack my sister? Reason?”
“Sister? Can human and beastkin be brother and sister?” The skeleton’s jaw kept shaking as if smiling happily, “This is the funniest joke I’ve heard in a hundred years.”
“This has nothing to do with Sir.”
“It’s natural for human and beastkin to kill each other. Beastkin won’t ask humans why they keep pigs in captivity, and you probably won’t ask Beastkin City why they keep meat humans in captivity.” The skeleton chuckled, “Human and beastkin are different race, and you ask for a reason?”
Ming He also said “not my kind”, but the meaning was different, this shaman’s meaning was more bloody.
Qin Yi said calmly, “Sir’s art of refining people doesn’t seem reasonable for people of the same race.”
“Huh?” The skeleton seemed a little surprised, “You can actually see the back door on my stele? You do have some knowledge.”
Qin Yi didn’t answer.
“As long as I can seek immortality, everything else doesn’t matter. I’m a shaman. I will never talk about the hypocritical cultivation of your Taoism.” The skeleton said, “Since you can understand my stele, you are a destined person, so I will not kill you. Get lost.”
Qin Yi let out a long laugh and suddenly swung the mace, “But I want to kill you!”
With a “click“, the skeleton rolled on the ground, but its leg was broken by the smash.
Qin Yi laughed, “A cruel and vicious shaman with combat strength will ask us to leave? You are trying pretty hard to bluff, didn’t you?”
The skeleton’s arrogant manner disappeared. He lay on the ground and trembled, saying, “Spare… spare my life! I hadn’t harmed your sister yet, right? You can take the Blood Lotus and the Blood Essence. These should be enough to make up for my mistake!”
Ye Ling was so angry that she rushed over and kicked it, “I’ll return them to you and beat you to death!”
The other leg of the skeleton was also broken with one kick. The skeleton was not afraid of the pain, so it said with a smile, “As long as Madam is happy, hit me as you please.”
“…” Qin Yi and Ye Ling looked at each other speechlessly.
I thought how badass is this shaman, but he becomes so spineless after losing his strength…
Ye Ling even lost her hatred. She turned her head away without speaking.
Qin Yi said, “Hand over the solution to the death curse.”
The skeleton was stunned for a long time. They are only here for this?
“That thing does not…” Seeing Qin Yi’s face turn ugly for a moment, it hurriedly said, “Wait, wait, wait, there is still a way…”
Qin Yi said with the last glimmer of hope, “Say.”
“I was originally a human slave in Beastkin City. By chance, I found a few fragments of the voodoo spell on a beastkin corpse. After secretly cultivating myself, I escaped from Beastkin City and settled in this mountain.” Skeleton slowly said, “This is an ancient voodoo spell. It always has a source. There may be other beastkins in Beastkin City who have other chapters.”
Of course, it was also possible that there were only fragments in the first place, and the others fragments were turned into ashes along with their masters under Liu Su’s attack tens of thousands of years ago.
Qin Yi stood there with an ugly expression and remained silent for a long time.
Hope was getting slimmer.
The skeleton observed his expression and carefully added, “Actually, there is another way…”
Qin Yi’s eyes moved slightly.
“There is a Beastkin King in Beastkin City, and his true form is the mythical beast <a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenghuang>Shenghuang…”
“Shenghuang? According to legend, riding it will increase your life span by 2,000 years?”
“Yes, as long as you ride on it, you can live longer. If you refine it…” The skeleton was instigating, “Maybe you brother and sister will live forever from now on. I just need to take a share of smaller portions…”
Even Ye Ling could understand that this guy’s final target was Beastkin King Shenghuang!
Riding it could increase the life span by 2,000 years and refining it would ascend directly.
Of course, Qin Yi doubted the authenticity of this legend. It is too fake to say that riding it can increase life span. If it’s so badass, wouldn’t those super powerhouses invade the Beastkin City long ago, capture this Shenghuang and ride it tens of thousands of times? It would have been artificially bred for tens of thousands of years…
But anyway, this kind of legend proves that Shenghuang probably has some unique specialties in longevity. If the Beastkin King can help, maybe this matter can really be solved…
“I heard that there are several kingdoms and several Beastkin Kings in Beastkin City?”
“Yes, there are 3 kingdoms in the city, and Beastkin King Shenghuang is the king of the White Kingdom.”
Ye Ling glanced at Qin Yi; Qin Yi was also looking at her.
It seemed to be God’s will.
Seeing them being moved, the skeleton also let out a sigh of relief. Its eyes stared at Ye Ling dimly with extreme malice. Go ahead and fight that Beastkin King. When I recover, I will refine you two idiots to death!
Just as it thought so, a mace suddenly appeared in front of it.
“Bang!” The head shattered, and the phosphorus fire scattered.
“Burn it.” Qin Yi put away the mace and said coldly, “No matter how cooperative it is, it is just buying time. Once it recovers, it will definitely revenge.”
Ye Ling spat out black flames and burned the skeleton. A sharp and vicious howl of soul came from the flames, and then it slowly subsided.
TL: Even if Shenghuang can lift the curse, why would it help?
