Chapter 425: The treacherous soil enlightens the nine-tooth rake! Zhu Ganghye’s harvest(1/2)
Poison King Mountain, bottomless pit.
There are hundreds of thousands of barren hills in Beimang, with numerous mountain tops and countless caves. However, the [Bottomless Cave] in Duwang Mountain has a very sinister reputation. Even if you look at the entire Liangzhou territory, it is said to be like thunder.
There is no other reason, just because [Bottomless Cave Master] is the right-hand man of Beimang [Young Corpse Master], and belongs to the direct lineage of [Beisha Xuanzhang].
"Brother, you have to know that before Shenzong destroyed the law, only demons and ghosts with great supernatural powers could open mountains and establish mansions."
Deep in the mountains, Xiong Jiujiu led Zhu Ganghei and introduced their king.
Before Shenzong destroyed the Dharma, spiritual practice was at its peak in the world. Human beings occupied caves, heavens and blessed lands, opened temples and built palaces, while demons and ghosts occupied mountains and mountains, opened caves and built palaces.
In those days, the ancient mountain cave was the standard equipment for those with great supernatural powers among monsters and ghosts. Monsters and ghosts all over the world worshiped the mountain tops. When they went out, if they encountered strong enemies, they would definitely register their own numbers, saying that each one came from a certain mountain. A certain hole.
After the Shenzong destroyed the law, the sects in the world withered away, leaving only three thousand guard dogs like Daqian, distributed in all regions of the world, under the supervision of Xuantian Pavilion Wumen, and every three years, the freshest "blood" must be sent to Enter the Xuantian Pavilion.
As for the demons and ghosts, they are even more bleak, like wandering ghosts, hiding deep in the barren mountains and living in shabby caves. There is no longer the phenomenon of thousands of years ago when mountains were built and tens of thousands of demons and ghosts rose up to shake the world.
Although it is a small fight like the Duwangshan Invincible Cave, it shows that it is powerful and different from other demons and ghosts.
"Brother Xiong, this Scorpion... what is the strength of our king?" Zhu Gangxi couldn't help but ask.
"The cave master is naturally a great demon, comparable to a human true breath powerhouse." Xiong Jiujiu said proudly.
All things have spirituality, and over time everything will become spiritual.
However, most demons and ghosts are just [little demons] at best throughout their lives, and human beings [in order of furnace].
This is also an ordinary human being, and it is the most common monster among monster hunters in the world.
Just like when Li Mo was still in Luofu Mountain, the Nine Furnace Demons and Ghosts were already considered to be the top existences, able to survive and develop under one sect.
However, even [Nine Furnace Demons and Ghosts], compared to the cultivation path of demons and ghosts, can only be regarded as [Little Demon] level, comparable to human [Inner Breath] monks.
This is also the highest state that most demons and ghosts can reach.
Further up, there is the channeling of demon energy, and the fifth level reaches the extreme realm, which is the so-called [Spirit Demon], which is equivalent to the human [Spiritual Breath] realm.
This kind of demons and ghosts are endowed with extraordinary talents and are born with a great opportunity to break through the shackles, break through the extreme realm, finally gain spirituality, penetrate the bloodline, and step into the spirit demon level in one fell swoop.
Demons and ghosts of this level are extremely dangerous, enough to attract the attention of Xuantian Pavilion.
Like most of the demons and ghosts Li Mo met in the capital before, they belong to this level.
Among spirit demons, if you have great fortune or are born with special blood, you will have the opportunity to step into a higher realm, that is, the [Great Demon] level.
Take Xia Chanming, for example, she is already a fifth-level spirit demon and has the bloodline of the [Nine Treasures Spiritual Cicada], so she has a great chance of comprehending the realm of the [Great Demon].
The Lord of the Bottomless Cave also has a very special bloodline, it is the [Nine-Poison Ancient Scorpion].
In the ancient practice system, the number "nine" is the most mysterious. Nine-nine returns to the extreme and undergoes changes again and again. Anyone with such a name must be extraordinary.
"Nine Poison Ancient Scorpions..." Zhu Ganghe said thoughtfully.
When he was in the capital, Li Mo was in the Xuantian Pavilion and had access to many secret books and ancient books. Sometimes he would bring them back and the demons and ghosts in Biyouju would borrow them and read them.
Zhu Gangxi once saw records about the "Nine Poison Ancient Scorpions" in a book called "Ancient Demon Chronicles".
It is said that this kind of monster was born in a poisonous miasma swamp. It is born to feed on poison. A large amount of toxins are constantly fused in the body like alchemy. They will undergo nine transformations in their lives. Each time they transform, their bodies will produce a kind of worldly poison.
Toxins like never before.
After nine transformations, nine different toxins will mix together to form an extremely terrifying poisonous miasma.
This is the most terrifying power of the [Nine Poison Ancient Scorpion]. Even a strong [True Breath] expert who specializes in the physical body cannot bear even a trace of this power, turning it into a pool of pus and blood.
"I don't like scorpions very much..."
Zhu Ganghe curled his lips, even the strongest True Breath masters would avoid such a terrifying existence.
"What are you talking about?"
Xiong Jiujiu was startled by Zhu Gangxi's rebellious remarks. He looked around hurriedly and saw no one around, so he spoke to remind him.
"Brother, if you want to be famous in the bottomless pit, just watch your mouth and only eat people and don't talk nonsense."
As he spoke, Xiong Jiujiu grinned, and his casserole-like fist fell heavily on Zhu Gangxi's body, causing him to take two steps back.
"Otherwise, your tendons may only be used as bacon."
"I understand." Zhu Ganghe nodded.
Xiong Jiujiu put away his paws, and the fierce light in his eyes gradually subsided.
In the bottomless pit, he is also a small boss, so he naturally needs to attract talents to expand his strength.
In Xiong Jiujiu's eyes, Zhu Ganghye seems worth cultivating. The most important thing is that this stupid young man with no foundation or origin can be used as a consumable at critical moments, as cannon fodder or to take the blame.
For monsters like them who worship at the top of the mountain, if they want to climb up and win the favor of the cave master, they need to have such consumables ready at all times.
In this way, Zhu Gangxi stayed in the bottomless pit and became the most inconspicuous little pig demon under Xiong Jiujiu.
He adheres to Xiong Jiujiu's teachings, seldom speaks on weekdays, and works hard without complaining.
In just half a month, other demons and ghosts completely regarded him as a stupid pig who only worked hard without expecting anything in return. They would push any dirty work to him, such as carrying corpses, cleaning caves and other tasks.
Because of this, Zhu Ganghye took the opportunity to go deep into the bottomless pit several times.
However, this cave has a special structure, with thousands of rocks and ravines, nine twists and turns, and the inside is like a maze of twists and turns.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xiong Jiujiu said that except for the cave owner, no one has mastered the complete picture of the bottomless pit.
After entering the cave for half a month, Zhu Ganghui had never seen the mysterious [Nine Poison Ancient Scorpions], but occasionally sensed strange fluctuations coming from the cave.
I heard from other demons and ghosts that it was the cave master who was practicing mystical skills. However, at this time, no demons and ghosts were allowed to approach, otherwise they would be wiped out and turned into a pool of pus and blood.
Xiong Jiujiu said that on weekdays, apart from paying homage to the [Young Corpse Lord], the cave master spent almost all his time on cultivation.
No one knows what kind of demonic skills he practices in the depths of the bottomless pit.
"The great demon... is of the lineage of Beisha Xuanzhang... and has such a level of cultivation... he may be able to get clues to the secret path of the Black Sword..."
Zhu Gangxi did not forget the task entrusted by Li Mo. He entered the cave for more than half a month and gradually understood the situation here. He was still and thought about it, and he couldn't help but have the idea of exploring the bottomless pit.
The so-called talented man is brave, but he has been cultivating the "Arctic Shangyuan Tianpeng Great God Mantra" hard. Now he has achieved Samadhi, and the magic method is the same. He is thinking of meeting the great demon.
Of course, he was hiding very deep, and there were thousands of demons in the bottomless pit. No one would have thought that this seemingly honest pig demon who had just entered the cave was actually a hidden and terrifying demon.
…
On this day, Zhu Ganghe was patrolling the mountain as usual. Halfway there, he happened to meet two of Xiong Jiujiu's confidants, Ji Angang and Ma Bobo.
The two demons were carrying a black iron box, and the heavy weight bent the red copper pole.
The chicken proudly shook its colorful hair and kicked violently, seeming to be struggling.
As for Puffball, he was panting heavily and kept tapping his feet on the ground.
At this moment, Puffboy's peripheral vision swept over him and he happened to see Zhugang Hyena not far away.
"Hehe, you're so lucky...it's the stupid pig newly acquired by Boss Bear."
As soon as he said this, Ji Aangang, who had just been hanging his head and panting, immediately became energetic.
"Stupid pig, come here quickly."
The chicken proudly put down its burden, leaned on the big black iron box, and waved to the pig hyena.
Not long after, Zhu Gang Hyena ran up to the two demons.
"Two eldest brothers..."
"You came just in time... help us move this iron box back to the cave." Ma Bobo raised his hand, interrupted Zhu Ganghe's words, and gave a direct order.
These days, they are the most diligent in handling the pigs and hyenas. All the dirty and tiring work is put on him, as if they treat him as their slave.
In their eyes, this stupid pig who has just arrived and seems to have never seen the world will sooner or later be used as cannon fodder by Boss Xiong. In this case, it is better to make good use of him before he becomes cannon fodder.
"Yes, yes, yes, carry him back, otherwise all your fat will be in vain." The chicken said with a grin.
"What's in this?" Zhu Ganghe asked casually, seemingly casually.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Is this what you should ask?" Ma Bobo scolded.
"With such a big box, I just want to know if there is any delicious food inside." Zhu Gang's eyes were fixed on the box for a moment.
"Idiot... you just know how to eat." Chicken Angang couldn't help but sneer.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you that there is nothing to eat here, but the treasures refined by the cave master."
"Refining treasures?" Zhu Ganghe's heart moved slightly.
"Hehe, this precious cave master has been refining it for eight years... It is said that it has reached a critical moment. If you are late in delivering it, you may be made into bacon." Ji Angang said in a frightened voice.
"Huh!? It's been eight years? Do you know what baby it is?"
At this moment, Ma Bolbo became interested. He started moving even later than the chicken, and some of the secrets in the cave were not clear.
"A weapon..."
The chicken said in a deep voice, not afraid that the pig and the hyena would hear it, and seemed not to take it seriously at all.
"It's said to be a weapon, but it's not really a weapon... It's said that many years ago, the cave master got a blessing and found a treasure in an abandoned cave. The material used to refine the treasure was extremely rare. It was neither gold, nor iron, nor steel.
Nothing other than stone...cannot be shaped into a weapon, nor can it be refined into a weapon..."
