Killing God

There is fog in all directions, as if covering the sky and covering the sun, flooding the entire forest like a tide. .Countless monsters ran out from every corner of the forest, all rushing forward frantically, desperately trying to stay away from the weird fog.

Shen Shi has never seen so many monsters suddenly appear in front of him in his life, and at this moment, he is a frail human standing in the tide of monsters, and there is nothing wrong with him. None of the monsters have looked at him at all. .

A bit of cold wind blows, and the temperature in the forest seems to be falling into an ice cellar. Behind the many monsters fleeing for their lives, the strange mist wriggles like life and spreads forward. Occasionally, a few The monsters that escaped slowly were overtaken by the mist, and immediately let out a shrill roar. However, as the mist rolled up, those mysterious shadows hidden in the mist instantly swarmed over, screaming and biting After the sound, the voices of the entangled monster beasts quickly faded away, and were soon submerged in the mist, and then their figures could no longer be seen.

And as this terrifying scene appeared in front of my eyes, the strange figures hidden in the mist also showed some clues. At first glance, they were almost translucent. The upper body looked like a human figure, but the lower body was vain. In mid-air, at the same time, his face was blurred, his facial features were ferocious, and his eyes were two deep black holes, with a few deep red lights shining out of them.

As he turned his head and looked around, a cold and violent aura surged in like a tide, as if he had a strong aversion to living things and wanted to destroy all fresh life.

Shen Shi didn't stay in a daze for long, in fact, he quickly recognized the identities of these terrifying monsters in front of him.

Ghost!

Among the ghosts, it is a terrible monster that feeds on the yang energy of living things.

There is only one place on the Demon Island where there are ghosts, and that is in the Demon Hunting Cave, because the ancestors of the Lingxiao Sect discovered some native ghosts on the Demon Island when they opened up the Six Islands of Herring, but they thought that apart from fighting monsters, The battle with the ghosts is also good for the new disciples in the future, so some ghosts are tolerated to survive on the demon island.

Compared with monsters, ghosts are usually more weird, even people who practice Taoism are difficult to deal with, so Ling Xiaozong once set up a ban on the demon island, sealing all the ghosts in the demon-hunting cave deep in the demon island However, only high-ranking disciples who have reached a certain level of Taoism and are confident will enter the monster hunting cave.

This has been the case for hundreds of years, and no ghost has ever been heard of escaping that trap.

However, the facts in front of him obviously overturned the news that Shen Shi had heard before. After seeing an extremely strong monster being engulfed by the thick fog almost without any power to fight back, he turned around without the slightest hesitation. just run.

You can't run away, this ghost fog is too weird, even the most ferocious monsters can't resist in front of the fog, Shen Shi asked himself that the distance is too far, if you don't run now, you will be waiting for death.

It was only after he turned around and took a few steps that he realized that something was wrong. The mist suddenly rose from many places in the forest, and the only direction where there was no mist was the direction where many monsters were fleeing. ,but……

That is the direction leading to the deepest part of Demon Island to climb a mountain range.

At that moment, thousands of thoughts turned in Shen Shi's mind. He has always been cautious on this demon island. Even if he enters the woods to hunt higher-level monsters after he has advanced in Taoism, he always pays attention not to approach the demon island. In the depths, he is usually far away from those mountains, because according to the information he got before coming here, the most dangerous place on the entire Demon Island is the Demon Hunting Cave, and the monsters on those mountains are generally stronger than those in the surrounding forests. The monsters in the game are more difficult to deal with and more dangerous.

After running for a while in this way, Shen Shi could already see the terrain at the foot of the mountain that was gradually rising in front of him, and there were still many monsters running for their lives and panicking beside him, and those behind him were constantly rushing to chase people away. weird fog.

In the cold wind, there were eerie howls and cries one after another, as if those spirits and ghosts who had no intelligence were laughing ferociously, chasing delicious food.Once entangled in the mist, it will be instantly submerged by countless ghosts, and then turned into a shriveled corpse.

The eerie ghost's cries seemed to be right next to his ears, with cold sweat dripping down his face, his heart beating so fast that it seemed to jump out of his chest, Shen Shi didn't have any escape route to choose, and he took a last look at the area behind him, which was becoming more and more dense and terrifying After the fog, he gritted his teeth and desperately thought about rushing up the mountains ahead.

When he was rushing up the hillside, Shen Shi accidentally raised his head to look at the sky above the woods, and saw that the sky seemed to be normal in places not covered by ghost fog, but it seemed that more than half of this day had passed. It was approaching dusk.

He didn't dare to look back, although he didn't know how to get back to the safe big ship, but at this moment, he could only flee desperately, to the silent and mysterious depths of Demon Island.

The sky was gradually getting cloudy. Gui Shuyun was meditating quietly with her eyes closed behind the Minglu Hall on Herring Island, outside the alchemy stone, but suddenly she seemed to feel something, and she suddenly raised her head and looked at the row of The middle room in the alchemy stone room.

After a while, the door of the stone room opened slowly, accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps, Zhong Qinglu walked out.There was a bit of exhaustion on her face that could not be concealed. After all, refining the second-grade Peiyuan pill was completely different from refining the first-grade spirit pill, the Yangqi pill. It's a world of difference.

This is Zhong Qinglu's ninth attempt to refine Peiyuan Pill, with a mere way of refining Qi.

Gui Shuyun had already stood up and greeted him. At the same time, he looked carefully at the expression on Zhong Qinglu's face and said softly, "Junior Sister Zhong, are you okay?"

Zhong Qinglu looked at her, nodded slowly, and then smiled slightly.

Gui Shuyun stared at the girl, the expression on his face slowly changed, from the initial concern and anxiety, to a little bit of surprise, and finally even a little bit of surprise and even unbelievable surprise, said: "You, are you ..."

Zhong Qinglu walked to her side, showing a somewhat gratified smile in his tiredness, then took out a small jade bottle from his bosom, and handed it to Gui Shuyun.

After Gui Shuyun took it, she immediately opened the bottle stopper, first took a look, and then took a closer look at the fragrance of the elixir pouring out of the bottle mouth. After a while, she seemed to be finally sure, and a sincere smile came from With a feeling in his heart, he hugged Zhong Qinglu with a little excitement, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations, Junior Sister Zhong, for more than a hundred years, you are the first one to refine Peiyuan in the Qi Refining Realm Dan's new disciple!"

Zhong Qinglu smiled and did not speak, but she looked exhausted, but the joy on her face came from the bottom of her heart. Gui Shuyun, who was beside her, was very excited, and returned the bottle of Peiyuan Pill to Zhong Qinglu Afterwards, he dragged her to the outside, and at the same time kept saying these words, to the effect that you, Junior Sister Zhong, have refined the spirit pill again, and your talent in alchemy has been fully revealed. The elders will definitely take care of you, the bright future of the Dao of Cultivation of Immortals is close at hand.

Zhong Qinglu smiled all the way, and seemed a little excited, but when she was listening to her senior sister chattering beside her, she suddenly thought of another person inexplicably in her heart.

That person, maybe he is still on the demon island now, is he fighting with the monster?

If he comes back and finds out that I have trained Peiyuan Pill, will he laugh, will he be extremely proud, and will he boast about his good vision?

Looking at the sky, it was almost dusk, so he must be coming back soon, right?

The corners of Zhong Qinglu's mouth pursed slightly, as if the original heavy burden was gone, and even the fatigue on his body seemed to be a little less, so he quickened his pace a few steps and walked out.

Should I let him know earlier?Or still whet his appetite?

Perhaps, wait for him at the pier and let him know the news first?

Thoughts lingered in the girl's heart one by one, she smiled and walked out of the Ming Furnace Hall.

Demon Island, above the seawall.

The sky gradually darkened, and it was already dusk. The setting sun fell on the distant sea level, and the feeble afterglow illuminated a few gloomy clouds, which was the last sunset glow.

The wind picked up.

The waves on the sea gradually became larger, and the movement of the big ship docked by the seawall also became larger. The sound of sea waves seemed to come from all directions, beating hard on the solid stone surface of the seawall, splashing pale spray.

There were quite a few figures standing on the deck, among which the two at the forefront were Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai. Both of them had gloomy faces, and their eyes were staring at the demon island that was getting darker and darker in the dusk.

At this moment, suddenly at the other end of the woods in front of him, three figures flashed and walked towards here from the woods with big strides.Almost at the same time, the Qi Refining Realm disciples standing behind Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai on the deck breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai looked at each other, their expressions much better.

The three figures walked quickly across the seawall and got on the big boat. They saw a group of people on the deck and looked at themselves. The three people had a bit of embarrassment on their faces, and they clasped their fists and said with a smile: "Let the two The senior brothers and sisters were worried, because we were going to hunt a black wind bear, we were delayed for a while, but luckily we managed to catch up."

Someone next to him said "ah" and said with a smile, "It's actually Hei Fengxiong. It seems that the three of you have gained a lot today."

A smug look flashed across the face of the leader, but he still said politely: "It's nothing, it's just average." Then he turned to Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai and said, "Senior sister Xu, brother Zeng, we're back, What a delay, now we can set sail."

It's just that he said this for a long time, but he didn't get any reply. This man was a little surprised, looked up, and saw Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai both frowned, and turned their heads to look at Yaodao again. Unknowingly, his complexion became gloomy again, and it seemed that his complexion was even uglier than before.

"What's the matter?" He turned his eyes around in some astonishment, and someone next to him reminded him in a low voice, "There is still a little brother who hasn't come back."

Time passed silently like this, dusk was over, the sun was setting, the waves on the sea were getting bigger and bigger, darkness finally began to descend on this mysterious demon island.

But Shen Shi still didn't come back.

There was silence on the whole ship.
