chapter 443: chapter 140: devouring spirit blood realm
seeing this person being so unreasonable and directly attacking the two of them,
qi yuanshu also grew angry, without any hesitation, he waved his hand and created a giant sword illusion several zhang long.
then, qi yuanshu pointed again, and the giant sword illusion fell down, crashing onto the flying sword below, and sent the cultivator’s flying sword flying away.
at the same time, the giant sword did not stop there but continued to strike the cultivator himself, although, at that moment, qi yuanshu withdrew most of his spiritual power.
he merely sent the cultivator flying without taking his life.
after all, they still needed to get some information about this place from him.
they couldn’t just kill him now.
after sending the person flying, lin jing and qi yuanshu also descended onto the mountain top.
perhaps because this person was too weak, after taking a hit from qi yuanshu, he collapsed to the ground and stopped moving.
however, fortunately, through observation, they found that this person was not dead and still breathing, which made them breathe a sigh of relief.
afterward, the two approached the fallen person.
preparing to revive him.
but, at that moment…
the cultivator, who had been motionless, suddenly moved.
he got up from the ground on his own.
after getting up, the cultivator stood still as if he had lost his memory, not attacking lin jing and qi yuanshu again.
lin jing sensed something very strange, so together with qi yuanshu, they moved in front of the cultivator to take a closer look…
and it was then that lin jing noticed the dull, unfocused gaze in the cultivator’s eyes, like those of a dead person.
if lin jing hadn’t felt the heartbeat and pulse within the man’s body, he would have thought the man was long dead…
qi yuanshu also noticed this situation.
both lin jing and qi yuanshu were completely baffled by this turn of events, not understanding what had happened.
at that moment, lin jing took the lead and used his divine sense to directly enter the other person’s sea of consciousness.
however.
this person’s sea of consciousness was completely empty…
lin jing frowned and said to qi yuanshu,
“qi fellow daoist, this person’s sea of consciousness…”
qi yuanshu also frowned and said:
“i’ve noticed…”
“his sea of consciousness is empty, his soul spirit has completely vanished, and he is probably now a walking corpse.”
a walking corpse is someone whose soul spirit has completely vanished, having no consciousness, yet is still able to move.
at this point, he can no longer be called human.
with the soul spirit gone, death is certain.
and a moving walking corpse is undoubtedly a puppet refined by someone else.
qi yuanshu, looking at the cultivator who had turned into a walking corpse, said with a frown:
“but the spell i used was not aimed at the sea of consciousness, how could this have happened?”
“moreover, even if it is a walking corpse, it would require an extremely complicated process to be successfully refined.”
“and to turn a golden core cultivator into a walking corpse, it would be impossible without hundreds of years.”
“but him…”
“he was clearly alive just a moment ago.”
as lin jing and qi yuanshu were speaking, the walking corpse of the cultivator moved; it turned around, brushed past lin jing and qi yuanshu, and staggered away into the mountains.
as he passed by lin jing, lin jing distinctly heard him muttering softly:
“qianqian, i’m coming…”
lin jing had never encountered such a bizarre situation before.
and it was not just lin jing; qi yuanshu was also watching the walking corpse with a furrowed brow at this time.
then, lin jing spoke up and asked qi yuanshu:
“qi fellow daoist, should we follow him?”
qi yuanshu nodded and said:
“let’s follow. i want to see exactly where this walking corpse is going…”
having spoken, the two started to follow the ‘walking corpse,’ continuing deeper into the mountain range.
the walking corpse was not very fast.
they followed it for several hours and had not gone very far.
lin jing and qi yuanshu tried to control the ‘walking corpse’ but they found that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t control it in the least.
they couldn’t even change its course.
just as the two were following the ‘walking corpse’ to see where it was ultimately going…
suddenly, a voice came from ahead:
“there’s no need to follow him anymore, the ultimate destination of a walking corpse is the sea of blood…”
lin jing and qi yuanshu looked up and saw a black-robed elder standing on a mountain peak in front of them.
that person was also a golden core cultivator.
the black-robed elder eyed lin jing and qi yuanshu, and then said:
“newcomers, how interesting…”
after speaking, the black-robed elder addressed lin jing and qi yuanshu:
“how many of you have come in this batch?”
lin jing and qi yuanshu looked at the black-robed elder and did not directly respond.
then, qi yuanshu asked the black-robed elder:
“first, tell us, what is this place exactly? and what’s the deal with that walking corpse?”
in response to qi yuanshu’s question, the black-robed elder chuckled and said:
“ha…”
“i was being presumptuous…”
“here, answering questions is quite expensive, especially for newcomers like you.”
“however, we can exchange information for this first question.”
“you tell me how many people have come in your batch, and i’ll tell you where you are.”
“how about it, fair, isn’t it?”
lin jing and qi yuanshu exchanged a look and then nodded.
at that moment, qi yuanshu spoke:
“in our batch, there were a total of more than one hundred and thirty people.”
“now it’s your turn to tell us.”
the black-robed elder bowed his head, muttering to himself with a frown:
“more than one hundred and thirty people…”
“could it be that he is about to succeed? is he starting to become indiscriminate?”
