Chapter 45 Blackmailing Two Powerful Men
Chapter 45 Blackmailing Two Powerful Men
Although the Blood God and the Red God belong to the good and evil sects respectively, because the divinity of the gods they worship is somewhat similar, there are many characters such as "brainless reckless men", "battle maniacs", and "war maniacs" among their believers.
Even so, the two religions have always been alive and well, and their influence is huge enough to prove their terrifying strength.
Alas, I met my nemesis this time.
There were three people in total, all dead.
Afterwards, these nearly one hundred immortal medicine corpses rushed towards the crowd collectively.
Li Yu had previously thought that the "Immortal Medicine Corpse" was very easy to kill, but the following scene proved that he was wrong.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, these gorgeous and exquisite medicinal corpses, surrounded by fragrant mist and auspicious clouds, turned the place of fighting into a fairyland. However, their fighting methods were even more terrifying than those of evil spirits.
First of all, it is immortal. No matter how many pieces its body is chopped into, or even if it is torn into pieces, it will still recover.
Secondly, they are terribly poisonous. The vines and tendrils extending from their bodies are not only extremely sharp, but also highly poisonous. Once you are hit, exotic flowers and plants like them will grow at the wound, and then frantically suck the blood from your body.
What’s even more terrifying is that they can control the tide of zombies.
Although both the Demon Star Commander and the Reincarnator are officially Sequence Eight and possess the power bestowed by the gods.
But after all, they were outnumbered and suffered heavy casualties after a fight.
At this moment, one person from each side stood up.
On the side of the reincarnationists was a handsome Taoist who was dressed simply, with his hair tied up with a wooden hairpin and a phoenix-shaped Taoist pattern on his forehead. He suddenly took out a box of jade talismans, chanted a spell, and the jade talismans flew up to find other reincarnationists in the same camp.
At the same time, this Taoist spoke loudly:
"My fellow Taoists, this jade talisman is called the [Guiyuan Yushen Talisman], and it is a defensive talisman from my Haotian Sect. My elders gave it to me to protect my life. Now that my fellow Taoists are in trouble, how can I, Wen Feifeng, stay out of it alone?"
"Please wear it on your body, come to my side, and form a magic circle together. You will be immune to being slaughtered by these strange drug corpses."
As soon as the words fell, those reincarnations who had received the jade talisman tried it out one after another, and indeed, just by wearing it they developed defenses, leaving those drug corpses temporarily helpless.
So without any hesitation, they all rushed over to form a battle formation.
"Fellow Daoist Wen is truly generous. The rank of this set of talismans is probably quite high. In my Earth Mother Sect, someone like me must be at Sequence Seven [Land] to be eligible to receive one."
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Wen has a high status in the sect, and was able to be granted such a treasure. After I was officially promoted to Sequence Eight [Qi Refiner], I couldn't even get a crudely refined magic sword in the sect."
"Amitabha, thank you for protecting me, Mr. Wen."
"It's good to be able to form a magic circle together. In this strange place, we don't seek gains, just to save our lives."
……
Along with these sounds, all the reincarnations appeared.
Apart from the two dead Red God Sect ruffians, the seriously injured "martial artist" who died, and a few unlucky guys who accidentally died in the tide of corpses, there are still eight people left.
Almost at the same time, the mechanical scholar who called himself Zhixing from the side of Demon Star Commander also stood up.
With a clicking sound, scarlet steam gushed out, and suddenly, a number of fist-sized spherical strange objects that looked like monsters' eyeballs flew out of his body. As if they had their own navigation, they also flew off to look for other demon star masters.
This person obviously wanted to compete with "Wen Feifeng" of the Haotian Sect to see who was more generous, more honest, and more suitable to be a leader.
"My name is Shang Yang, codenamed Zhi Xing, and I am a subordinate of the Holy Nest, the ruler of the southern district of Wanfu City. I am a Scholar, Sequence Eight of the Ancient Saint Path."
"This thing is called the [Psychic Death Star]. It can activate a protective light shield and also emit a psychic death ray... It is a unique item created by our Holy Nest."
"I'll give each of you one. You can use it after dripping blood to acknowledge the owner."
"There is only one condition: Please listen to my command for the time being. After destroying these drug corpses, I will kill these hypocritical reincarnations."
"As for who will own the corpse of the Penglai Fairy, it will all depend on your ability."
"Good! Since you are under the command of Holy Nest, you are trustworthy."
"Although I am not from Wanfu City, I have heard of the reputation of the ancient saints. Count me in."
Perhaps it was because Shang Yang revealed his identity and name, or because of the temptation of the rare and exotic object, the two people on the Demon Star Lord's side who had been hiding also showed up one after another.
The path and sequence are all unknown. Together with the tiger-headed demon monk and the unclean one, each with greed on his face, they received a psychic death star.
Seeing this, Shang Yang was not satisfied.
He frowned and looked around at the complex battlefield. The surging tide of corpses could not obscure the penetrating light emitted by his pair of mechanical eyeballs, but he could not find the seventh person.
I had no choice but to speak again, shouting sincerely:
"The Lord of the Order is still there. If it is inconvenient for you to come, just show up and call out, and this Death Star will still be given to you."
"You probably don't know that every time you travel through the strange domain and the spirit world, you have to make a judgment... If we perform very poorly and let this strange domain fall into the hands of those false gods, even if you are not wiped out after the end, you will be thrown into a strange domain with a higher mortality rate the next time you travel."
"We, the Demon Star Lord, are already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and we cannot afford to lose even one."
"If it weren't so, why would I, Shang Yang, give you such a great benefit?"
He uttered a series of words that were well-reasoned and even contained secret rules.
Li Yu in the dark!
But still unmoved.
He mixed in the corpse tide, while trying his best to absorb the extraordinary knowledge that was given to him for free, such as "The Seventh Land God of the Yin Emperor's Path Sequence", "The Eighth Refiner of the Daluo Golden Immortal's Path Sequence", "The Eighth Scholar of the Ancient Saint's Path Sequence", etc. On the other hand, he frowned and looked at both parties: Wen Feifeng and Shang Yang.
Although he couldn't explain why, he always felt that something was wrong, so he had no intention of getting any psychic death star.
The price of free is the most expensive, Li Yu knows this very well.
However, the strange behavior of these two people gave him some ideas.
In particular, he gradually discovered that the approximately one hundred "immortal medicine corpses" would turn their heads towards the position of the corpse tide where he was from time to time.
There are ninety heads in the palace area in front, and nine scattered around in the back, gathering from all over.
Silently, it seemed as if the encirclement was about to be completed.
However, every time they made a move, they were inadvertently stopped by the gang led by Wen Feifeng and Shang Yang.
The latter had no idea that the undead medicine corpses were going to kill more than a dozen of them, and they were just doing it as they passed by. They were just trying to complete the side quest while saving their own lives, so they all tried their best.
The battle situation was extremely intense.
Li Yu, however, had already understood:
"This corpse city should have some kind of harvesting rules. These immortal medicine corpses will send out ten of them from time to time to harvest these mortal medicine corpses in various places and water the so-called spiritual roots in their bodies."
"I accidentally killed one of them this time, the ninety-third of the hundred. Is that why all this commotion happened? Of course, you can't really blame me. If the others had killed one, it would still have caused all this."
"My concealment was very effective until the Demon Star Order in my body took away that little bit of spiritual root. These bastards could faintly sense it..."
As soon as this thought came to mind, the alarm bells started ringing.
He subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but he quickly realized his mistake.
With spiritual roots in his body, his disguise is ineffective. If he moves, he will be exposed and will be directly targeted and hunted by ninety-nine horrible drug corpses.
No!
We must divert the blame and share the pressure.
In an instant, Li Yu had an idea in his mind.
He first put the Compassion Pill, Divine Foot Pill, and Explosive Flame Pill into his sleeves, and then deliberately shouted loudly to both sides:
"Brother Shang, I appreciate your kindness, but the path I follow and my great master both require me not to borrow the power of other gods, including the creations of the ancient saints."
"I can't borrow external things, but I can listen to some rules and knowledge."
"This is my first time in this strange land, and it should be the first time for Brother Shang to come here. However, Brother Shang has a strong background, so he must have known about it in advance."
"As long as Brother Shang can tell us more about the secrets of the Monster Star Order and the Weird Domain, such as what are the functions of the merit points?"
"I can tell you the weaknesses of these [Undead Medicine Corpses]."
"If Brother Wen from the Haotian Sect is also interested in doing this business, you can also ask for it. The price is the same."
"To be honest, I was the one who killed the first drug corpse. It was very easy. It only took me one or two breaths."
……
Along with these sounds, both sides' eyes were immediately fixed on a strange man in the tide of zombies, who was wearing a funny fox mask on his face and carrying a huge yellow gourd on his back.
It suddenly dawned on everyone that this person was the last Demon Star Commander.
Seeing him being ignored by all the zombies while being in the tide of zombies, they all understood that this person must have some special concealment technique.
When Wen Feifeng heard what he said, his expression changed, while Shang Yang's mechanical eyes flashed red.
The two men have extraordinary origins, and both possess the ability to detect lies.
The judgment is made in an instant: what this person says is true.
Afterwards, both of them were excited.
There is no doubt that the Demon Star Lord, who was hiding like a rat, was blackmailing the two of them.
Fortunately, what was blackmailed was not something rare or strange, but just some rules and knowledge that were not very secret.
Compared to these insignificant knowledge, the benefits would be much greater if these one hundred "immortal medicine corpses" could be killed quickly.
Not only can you win people's hearts and minds, build more prestige, complete side quests, avoid being wiped out, get more merit points, but you can also quickly advance into the palace... With so many wonderful advantages, it's really hard to resist.
"This person has killed the first Undead Medicine Corpse and has completed the side quest. He will not be wiped out."
"Even if I don't tell him now, he will know it after the mission is over. It's better to use it in advance to exchange for benefits."
This thought flashed through the minds of Shang Yang and Wen Feifeng.
At the same time, nearly a hundred undead drug corpses and corpse tides rioted, and the momentum of the attack became more fierce.
This sudden change seems to be providing evidence for "Li Yu". The medicine corpses are worried that the weakness will be exposed, so they are all anxious?
Seeing this, the two of them no longer hesitated. They each formed two fortress magic circles to block the offensive, while they spoke one after another, revealing pieces of rule knowledge in advance.
