Chapter 2228: Chapter 2228: Medicine Shocks the World (13)
Ascension Pill...
If it were someone else, they might think it’s for improving one’s cultivation.
But this person!!
That is definitely not something good!
He gasped for air with his mouth wide open, trying to say something, but couldn’t utter a word.
The youth squatted beside him, hands interlaced on his knees, chin resting on the back of his hands, looking at him obediently.
"What are you doing?"
A cold voice flowed over, and deep down, the man felt it was a heavenly sound.
Help... Help!
The youth reached out, lifted his clothes to cover his face, then stood up with his back towards him.
"Nothing..."
The man heard his voice dimly.
No one replied to him, but the man heard footsteps approaching closer...
He moved his fingers with difficulty, trying to grab the approaching person, but only caught a handful of air.
-
Chuzheng had seen Jing Po feed something to the person on the ground just now.
No idea what it was...
Chuzheng calmly placed Jing Po into the coffin: "Did it scare you just now?"
Jing Po shook his head.
Chuzheng turned her head to glance at the person lying on the ground, and upon reflection...
Jing Po was not too willing to let Chuzheng see, he tugged at Chuzheng’s sleeve, dragging her attention back.
"Hmm?"
Jing Po didn’t know what to say either.
He didn’t want Chuzheng to go look at that person earlier.
In a panic, Jing Po stammered: "I... I’m a little scared."
Chuzheng: "..." You just shook your head! Liar!
Chuzheng held back her sarcasm, checked her card, her eyes subtly shifting: "Shall I hold you?"
Jing Po blinked and, after a moment, surprisingly nodded his head.
Chuzheng reached out and hugged him close, then casually petted his head.
Jing Po actually disliked others touching his head, especially when he had silver hair.
He felt he was strange, different from normal people.
But when Chuzheng touched him, Jing Po, though uncomfortable, didn’t feel strongly against it.
"Feeling better?"
"Yeah..."
"Then let’s go." Otherwise, someone might pop up again, annoying.
Jing Po let go of Chuzheng and sat back inside.
Chuzheng moved to the front, the coffin slowly advancing, Jing Po leaned on the coffin’s edge, looking at the person still with an outstretched hand, trying to grab something.
That hand gradually lowered...
Jing Po retracted his gaze, moved to the front, and said to Chuzheng: "I want to walk by myself."
"You’re too slow." Chuzheng critiqued.
Jing Po: "..."
He scratched the edge with his nails: "I can walk faster."
Chuzheng turned to look at him.
The youth’s eyes were moist, the corners slightly red, looking utterly pitiful.
Chuzheng couldn’t stand him looking like this.
She felt an urge to...
Chuzheng: "Fine, you can come out, I’ll lead you."
Openly holding the Good Person Card’s hand, I can do it!
"...Oh, okay." Jing Po didn’t have any particular feelings about this, like a kid being led by a teacher.
He tilted his head: "So, can I come out now?"
Chuzheng pulled him out, the youth was very light, requiring little effort from Chuzheng.
Once the youth touched the ground, he proactively extended his hand to Chuzheng, as if ’you can hold it’ was written across his face.
Chuzheng grasped his hand: "Tell me if you get tired."
"I can walk very far on my own." The youth weakly countered.
"Yes, you’re amazing."
"..."
-
Wuyin Town.
An already vanished town, to enter it requires guidance from a soul.
There are two types of souls that can be used.
The first type, personally kill someone, bind their soul and refine it, let them lead the way.
The second type, find a yet undissipated evil spirit, persuade it to voluntarily lead the way.
Evil spirits are extremely hard to find, and must be persons full of resentment, making it even harder.
Evil spirits with overwhelming resentment typically harbor immense hatred, to let them lead the way, one must first fulfill their demands.
Chuzheng doesn’t have time to fulfill any demands, after finding a suitable evil spirit, first bombard them with Demonic Beast Core until they’re dizzy, and if that doesn’t work, add Lingbi.
Evil Spirit: "..."
I’m already dead, what use do I have for these things?
This one might be an idiot.
Finally meeting a person, and they turn out to be an idiot.
"I can give the things to your descendants." Chuzheng decided to act kindly.
Descendants... The evil spirit thought, since he’s dead, why bother with descendants.
The evil spirit snarled fiercely: "I just want revenge!!"
"Fine." Chuzheng was too lazy to continue conversing: "I’ll find another."
Mountain doesn’t come to me, I switch mountains!
Though hard to find, evil spirits can still be found!
Evil Spirit: "Hey, hey, hey... Don’t go!!"
The evil spirit hurriedly floated over, blocking Chuzheng.
He glanced around twice, pointing at the youth standing not far away: "Here, if you let me use his body for two days, I’ll agree to help."
As soon as the evil spirit’s words fell, it was sent flying by Chuzheng.
Chuzheng: "..." To be honest, she didn’t know she was this powerful.
She had only wanted to hit the evil spirit.
Upon floating back, the evil spirit’s expression turned odd, showcasing fear: "You... you’re a Demon Spirit!"
"What?"
Chuzheng’s head was filled with question marks.
Just what is this body?
Both Demon Mountain and Demon Spirit?
"You... don’t know?" The evil spirit seemed more shocked than Chuzheng, who was directly involved.
"Aren’t you from Demon Mountain?"
"...Should be."
"What’s with ’should be’, you don’t even know where you came from?" The evil spirit shouted.
"..."
I took over this body midway, how should I know anything!
Chuzheng’s expression turned serious: "You know quite a bit?"
-
Rumors tell of a Demon Mountain, where Demonic Qi lingers annually, making it impossible for cultivators and ordinary folk to approach.
But there’s a kind of people who can move freely on Demon Mountain.
This kind are Demon Spirits.
Demon Spirits are enormously powerful, capable of using both Spiritual Energy and Demonic Qi.
However, Demon Spirits cannot leave the mountain.
The only way to leave is to be summoned.
"Can only be summoned?"
"It’s said Demon Mountain and Jiuzhou Continent are separate, summoning is the only way to reach Jiuzhou Continent."
Demon Spirits are too strong; if they could leave freely, what would be left for other Jiuzhou races?
"Summoning conditions are stringent... I don’t know the specifics, but it’s not accessible to just anyone."
Chuzheng: "..."
So, this Chen Yin is actually a summoned entity?
Then who summoned Chen Yin?
Chuzheng thought of a question: "If Demon Mountain and Jiuzhou Continent are separate, how do you know cultivators and ordinary people can’t survive on Demon Mountain?"
Evil Spirit: "..."
Is that the key point?
Who doesn’t embellish such rumors a bit?
"I also heard about it." The evil spirit laughed awkwardly twice.
Chuzheng was noncommittal: "How do you know about this?"
To recognize her!
"I can’t really explain... it’s just... a feeling."
He had heard stories about Demon Spirits in the past, and just now, by some miracle, it surfaced automatically in his mind.
Moreover, he instinctively feared her...
This wasn’t fear of power, but rather her as an individual.
"Both Demon Spirit and Evil Spirit have ’Spirit’ in their names, there might be some connection." The evil spirit smiled ingratiatingly: "Wouldn’t you agree?"
The evil spirit was clearly hiding something, but Chuzheng let it slide: "So you’re going to lead the way for me?"
"Lead! Lead, lead, lead!" After finishing this, the evil spirit looked confused: "Where are you intending to go?"
"Wuyin Town."
Evil Spirit: "..."
