Chapter 96 Nine Deaths
(ps: The second update is here, please vote for recommendation.)
"The fifth-grade spiritual plant turned out to be a fifth-grade spiritual plant that had a narrow escape from death. No wonder, no wonder Zeng Ying's grandfather and third uncle suddenly got that strange disease. It must be the snake demon controlling the Yin spirit to absorb the vitality of the two of them.
Directly depleting vitality, of course, one will become listless, unable to wake up from a long sleep, and will become weaker and weaker. But the funny thing is that the snake demon does not understand the life of nine deaths at all.
The turning point condensed by the death limit cannot be catalyzed by absorbing the vitality of other life forms. To catalyze it, we can only find more death energy to allow it to continue to grow."
After sleeping for three or four hours, Guo Zhengyang got up energetically at eight or nine in the morning, and then began to study the treasure he dug out from the ground of Zeng's house and put it in the storage ring.
This treasure is actually a strange-looking spiritual plant. Spiritual plants are the collective name given by monks to those spiritual herbs and elixirs that have various miraculous effects.
Most of the spiritual plants in this world can only be conceived in a place with rich spiritual energy and absorb a large amount of spiritual energy. However, there are indeed some wonderful spiritual plants. The growth process requires not spiritual energy, but other specific conditions.
For example, the nine-death life currently in Guo Zhengyang's storage ring only requires one thing for its birth, that is, there is a strong aura of death and evil around it.
Guo Zhengyang also didn't know how the ground dozens of meters below the Zeng family lawn had the conditions to support the birth of a tree with a narrow escape, but a tree with a narrow escape was indeed born in that ground.
And it is a narrow escape that is about to reach maturity.
There are nine levels of spiritual plants in the spiritual realm, and each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. The elixirs refined by the first and second level spiritual plants are enough for all monks in the spirit gathering period to use, while the third and fourth level spiritual plants can be used by real people.
The spiritual plant that meets the needs of the environment.
There are only a few spiritual plants of the fifth grade and above in the entire spiritual realm. Just one fifth-grade spiritual plant is enough to make Daojun's heart flutter. What's more, the narrow escape in front of him is the most outstanding one among the fifth-grade spiritual plants.
The appearance of Narrow Escape is very strange. It is just a small winding tree, about tens of centimeters tall, with a dark trunk and ten branches extending outward from the tree body.
There is one leaf and one flower on each of the nine branches. Moreover, these branches, branches, leaves, and flowers are completely black, with black smoke lingering on the surface. They look gloomy, but the last branch that stretches out is green and moving.
It is full of vitality. However, there are no branches, leaves and flowers on this green branch.
A narrow escape from death, which is why it got its name.
If the last green branch also condenses into branches, leaves and flowers, it is already a complete and mature escape from death.
This thing can only be born in a place with extremely strong death energy. Its nine branches, flowers and leaves surrounded by death energy are also the best treasures in the eyes of monks who practice Yinxie magic.
If a person dies next to such a spiritual plant, the soul will not be destroyed, but will be directly transformed into a Yin spirit. The Yin spirit will continue to grow stronger and stronger if it is nurtured by the death energy breathed out by the nine dead branches.
If the flower and leaf on the next dead branch is not exploded into a spirit body, it will become an evil ghost as terrifying as a Dzogchen Soul Gathering monk.
Of course, if an ordinary Yin spirit really wants to swallow the flowers and leaves from a dead branch alive, it will inevitably explode the spirit body and disappear completely.
But if you absorb and nourish it for decades after a near-death experience, absorbing the death energy escaping from its flowers and leaves little by little, you will grow stronger little by little. When the time comes, you can swallow a flower and leaf, and you will be able to suppress the Great Perfection of Gathering Spirits. If you
If you have the strength to swallow nine flowers and leaves full of death energy without exploding your body, you are a super evil spirit that is as ferocious as a real person at its peak. However, if an ordinary Yin spirit wants to have the strength to swallow nine flowers and leaves, it will take hundreds of people.
It’s impossible to do this even if you are pregnant and raising your baby for several years.
And if the nine-death experience is used to refine elixirs, or its branches are used to refine magic weapons, they will also be outstanding treasures.
These things were also seen in some classics that Guo Zhengyang bought from other casual cultivators in his previous life. In his previous life in the spiritual realm, he relied on hunting low-level monsters in dangerous places densely populated by monsters, and also found
Some spiritual plants are used to accumulate wealth, so they actually bought many classics introducing various spiritual plants.
Even though the best spiritual plants he had seen in the previous life were only low-level third-grade spiritual plants, he also knew a lot of spiritual plants above third-grade.
"No wonder a snake demon like that was born underground in the Zeng family. It survived a narrow escape from death. If it only had branches of death energy, ordinary living beings would be obliterated by the pure death energy and turned into ghosts as soon as they got close to it. But as soon as the branches came out,
The life after nine deaths, even if it is just the first clue, is enough for ordinary life to survive. Even an ordinary snake has been living in this place and constantly absorbing life and death. It will evolve into a monster and continue to absorb life.
Death Qi, this snake demon is born with the ability to control Yin spirits."
"But the ordinary snake demon doesn't have much intelligence, so it mistakenly thinks that controlling the Yin spirit to absorb more living people can ripen the branches? That's why it attacked Zeng Ying's grandfather and third uncle? Slowly absorbing it bit by bit
Its motive for survival is that too many people will die in a short period of time, so that no one will dare to approach there again?..."
When Guo Zhengyang collected the nine deaths underground last night, he only found nine deaths in the underground snake cave. Other than that, there were no other abnormalities. This means that the death energy that originally permeated the underground may have been absorbed by these nine deaths, and the death energy has disappeared.
Pregnant and raised, even after a near-death experience and unable to continue growing, the snake demon wants to absorb the vitality of living people to accelerate ripening?
Although this is Guo Zhengyang's inference, the reality is probably similar to this.
And the snake demon has been hanging on the lives of Grandpa Zeng Ying and his third uncle, never draining the life force of the two of them. I am afraid that he is afraid that too many people will die in a short period of time, and he is so scared that no living person can stay at the inner door of the villa.
After all, the snake demon has become a monster. Even if it does not have complete and mature spiritual intelligence, it is still much smarter than ordinary animals.
In last night's battle, if Guo Zhengyang had not participated, the final result would probably be that neither the snake demon nor Master Yu could kill the other, and then the two sides would divide this tree's narrow escape, otherwise his induction would not have four targets.
Hunt.
But now all this has passed. This time, Guo Zhengyang is the biggest winner.
The storage ring is in a vacuum state, and ordinary spiritual plants are stored in it. Although it will not continue to grow, it will not be easily damaged or broken. There is absolutely no problem in keeping it for a year and a half. This tree has a narrow escape from death. Whether he uses it by himself in the future, or
Selling it out will bring him great benefits.
If he puts it out for sale, a top-quality fifth-grade spiritual plant that is about to mature can at least sell him more wealth than he has accumulated in his previous life. What if he uses it himself?
If he kills someone in the future, he can directly refine and control his soul, and then let the Yin spirit continue to absorb the death energy from his narrow escape, and he will soon be able to cultivate a very powerful Yin spirit as a helper.
But as Guo Zhengyang was thinking again and again, he suddenly frowned, then raised his hand and escaped from the narrow escape.
"No, this is... rub, when did these guys come here?"
"By the way, when the snake demon sprang out from the ground, the snake path it opened also connected the narrow escape to the ground. Therefore, after they were killed, their bodies and souls were not destroyed, but were saved by the waves that escaped from the narrow escape.
In order to achieve immortality in his soul, he turned into a Yin spirit. If there was no birth branch in his nine-death life, then the Yin spirit that fell and was born near him would not have the slightest sanity and would be just a vicious ghost. But once the birth branch appears, even if it is just the beginning, these
Yin spirits also preserve memories of their lives. It took me an hour to destroy the corpses of the snake demon. It is estimated that during that time, the souls of these guys climbed along the snake path and escaped death."
"When I took away the narrow escape, I actually brought out these ghosts."
…
This tree had a narrow escape, and was only twenty or thirty centimeters tall. At first, Guo Zhengyang did not notice any other abnormalities, but when he looked at it just now, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. Among the nine dead branches, there were actually six branches.
, all have a vague grimace.
After careful identification, they were the great-father who was killed by Jiang Yu and Xiaoya, the three bodyguards of the Zeng family, and the monk and Taoist duo.
As for the snake demon, Master Yu and others were completely destroyed in body and soul because they were killed by Guo Zhengyang with a spiritual weapon and burned with real fire.
On the contrary, these six ordinary people, because they were only killed by gunshots, were possessed by Yin spirits and sucked their life force even before they died. However, those Yin spirits also disappeared with the death of the snake demon. After all, those Yin spirits should have been attached to the Snake demon.
, and it was refined by the snake demon. When the owner dies, his soul will naturally disappear.
"You haven't come out yet! Do you want me to kill you completely?" After careful identification, although the six Yin spirits attached to the narrow escape were trying their best to hide their figures, they still left some traces on the branches. Guo Zhengyang
Suddenly his eyes became fierce.
All of a sudden, the six spiritual bodies that were originally hidden on the dead branches escaped, and each of them turned into the same appearance as they were in life, except that their bodies were transparent and a little blurry. They all looked at Guo Zhengyang in trembling fear.
"You...are you Mr. Guo?"
Under the boundless fear, Zeng Ying's father spoke tremblingly, looking at him with horrified eyes.
Guo Zhengyang ignored these, but suddenly reached out to touch his chin, scanning the six Yin spirits with his big eyes, his eyes full of weirdness. He had thought before that if he did not sell them after a narrow escape, but let him use them himself, that would be the best way.
There is nothing better than cultivating a group of evil spirits. As long as the evil spirits are strong enough, they will also help him.
If he were to cultivate them, he would naturally not be like a snake demon who only gave birth to some low-level evil spirits. Apart from being terrifying in appearance, they had no power at all. They could only possess mortals and absorb their vitality.
But he really didn't expect that not long after this idea came to his mind, there were already six Yin spirits around him.
Could it be that he is really going to develop into a sinister old demon in the future?
If you want to kill the six Yin spirits in front of you, you can just snap your fingers. After all, these are newly born Yin spirits. Even if they are attached to the side of a top-quality spiritual plant like a life of nine deaths, they will be naturally nurtured within a few years or more.
There won't be any climate.
A single thunder spell can destroy them physically and mentally.
But if Guo Zhengyang gives these guys some cultivation classics and lets them use the body of Yin spirit to practice with the help of the rich death energy of the nine-death life, they can definitely become a ghost cultivator very quickly. Even if such Yin spirits are naturally restrained by thunder, many of them can
Time can also be his help. After all, not every monk specializes in the art of thunder.
If used properly, six evil spirits will be more effective than one or two spiritual weapons. Spirits can naturally fly to the sky and escape from the earth, can pass through walls and enter rooms, and can be used for tracking, gathering information, etc.
