Chapter 202: 6 hands and 2 eyes

Chapter 202 Six Hands and Twelve Eyes Drought Demon

In western Hunan, in front of Tianshao Mountain, the Yuan River.

Ye Lianchen saw with his own eyes the three people from Hanging Coffin Gorge take out a lot of things from the cave rocks and put them on the ground, leaving them to Shi Buyu. After Shi Buyu nodded, they turned around and left.

Thirteen ice coffins, including his own, were dragged by a magical force and followed behind them, flying towards Tianshao Mountain.

With Shi Buyu's loud shout, the whole caravan moved forward and stopped at the gate of Tianshao Mountain. For the Water Gang, this was considered as real business, and trading the strange corpse was just a side job.

It was not until Ye Lianchen got close to Tianshao Mountain that he could see the strangeness of the mountain.

The body of Tianqiao Mountain was pitch black that day. From a distance, it looked like a wooden stake standing on the ground. There was no peak on the top, and it was as flat as if it had been cut by a knife. The surroundings were round like a bucket, as if it was a whole. If viewed in conjunction with the dark clouds on the top, it looked like a thick black Ganoderma lucidum.

When Ye Lianchen looked at it from afar, he felt strange. How could there be a mountain so huge and so regular?

Now that I'm closer, I can see that this is not a mountain at all!

This is formed by countless straight, flat-topped mountains clustered together!

It would be more appropriate to call it a small mountain, or a sub-mountain, compared with the entire Tianqiao Mountain. In fact, each sub-mountain is at least several dozen feet wide.

These sub-mountains are straight, with cliffs on all sides, and there is a gap of ten feet between each sub-mountain.

So now that they were close, they could see many vertical slits on the outer edge of Tianshao Mountain. At this time, many people poured out of these slits, all wearing black clothes and black faces, and landed on the river bank, guiding the people of the water gang to the shore.

But soon, Ye Lianchen could no longer see the situation outside, and he was taken into one of the narrow gaps.

There are high mountains on both sides of this narrow gap, and there are dark clouds on the top, so even if it is broad daylight outside, it is pitch black inside.

It was not until he activated his green eyes that he could see the situation in the mountain clearly.

He was floating between the mountains, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right. He soon realized that Tianqiao Mountain was a maze!
He lowered his head and looked down. In the winding and narrow mountain path, groups of zombies were hopping and walking like marching ants. Looking closely at the cliffs on both sides, they were covered with coffins densely hung on them, like a beehive!
Even he couldn't help but sigh at the scene. How many zombies are there in here?
"The goods from Stone Toad arrived just in time this time!"

Ye Lianchen suddenly heard the three people in front of him start talking. One of them spoke first, and his excitement was evident in his voice.

"That's right! Thirteen of these strange corpses of fire demons. Send them to the temple master for his inspection. The "Purple Fire Rotten Peach Demon" has just been born, and its fire nature is fierce. These strange corpses fished out of the evil hole should be qualified to refine the drought demon! The temple master will be very happy when he finds out!"

Another person spoke up.

"We in the Fire Temple have waited for hundreds of years, and finally we have found the answer."

The last person said.

Drought?

Ye Lianchen was shocked when he heard this.

The road was winding and it took a long time before we stopped and finally came to a place where there was a red glow in the soil.

"Boom!"

The coffin fell to the ground.

Ye Lianchen saw a cave in front of him. There was a bright red light in the cave, as if there was a fire burning. There were a few words carved on the top of the cave:
"Thousand Light Fire King Temple"

The three men walked to the entrance of the cave and bowed respectfully. One of them said,

"E Zhifeng wants to see the temple master."

"What's the matter?"

After a while, a low voice came from the cave.

"Master, we have collected a batch of strange fire corpses and would like to ask you to take a look."

"Come in!"

This time, the person inside responded quickly, and there was a sense of urgency in his voice.

So the three of them went in, and the thirteen coffins followed behind.

It was pitch black all the way here, but the soil here was glowing red. The brightness made Ye Lianchen a little uncomfortable, and it also reminded him of the days when he was refining elixirs in Danxia Mountain. However, in Danxia Mountain, the flames there were bright and hot, like the sun, while the flames here were bright red, like blood.

After entering the cave, Ye Lianchen found that he was going down all the way, deep into the ground. At the same time, the firelight seeping out of the surrounding soil was becoming more and more dazzling. After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, the coffin stopped again.

The heat waves were rising, as if one had come to a sea of ​​fire, and the ice coffin was slowly melting here.

Only then did Ye Lianchen see clearly what was inside this so-called "Thousand Light Fire King Temple".

Just this one look is even more disgusting than the scene in Qin Tianzong's Yin Ding that day!

Under the cave was a huge fire pit, more than ten feet in radius. The fire pit was filled with blood as oil, burning with bright red flames. In the fire pit lay a person, or rather a corpse. The corpse was six feet tall, and when Ye Lianchen used his Dharma Eyes, he could see that it was the real body in the flesh, not some kind of magic illusion.

The corpse looked to be in his forties or fifties, a sturdy man, lying on his back naked in the fire pit. His entire body was red and covered with all kinds of strange and mysterious talismans.

The corpse had a hideous look, as if it had suffered great pain when it died. Even though its face was stiff, its eyes were wide open and one could still see great hatred in them.

The strangest thing about this corpse is its eyes and arms.

This corpse has six hands on its shoulders! And each of the six hands has an eye on its back!

A strange corpse with six hands and eight eyes!

A monstrous murderous aura and a tremendous amount of fiery heat emanated from this strange corpse.

And around this giant corpse, there are hundreds of arms and eyeballs floating densely!

These arms are big and small, some are human and some are monsters, and the pupils are red and green, some are round and some are vertical. It makes people extremely uncomfortable to look at them.

It is obvious that the extra hands and eyes on the corpse were not natural, but added later.

In the fire pit, next to the head of the evil corpse, there was a blood lotus as big as a millstone. There was a person sitting inside it, but when Ye Lianchen looked carefully, he found that it was not a person, but a mandrill covered with clothes!
The mandrill was tall and dressed like a human, but its white face and red nose looked very scary. "What kind of strange fire corpse is this? Open it up and take a look."

The mandrill spoke in human language.

Then, a demon opened a coffin.

"Ok?"

In just a blink of an eye, the mandrill disappeared from the blood lotus and came to the ice coffin.

The mandrill sniffed with its huge red nose, and then a light flashed in its white and red eyes, and its voice could not hide its surprise.

"Where did it come from?"

The leader of the three answered respectfully,
"Temple Master, I bought it from the Water Gang. The head of the Water Gang, Shi, has a good personal relationship with my subordinates. I asked him to keep an eye out for the fire corpse for me before, and this time he finally gave me an explanation. I was talking about the strange corpse that was fished out from the current Purple Evil Dragon Cave and the previous underground fire cave in Rotten Peach Mountain."

The mandrill nodded, "Yes, there is a reward!"

"Thank you for your grace, temple master!"

The three of them nodded and bowed.

"Open them all."

said the mandrill.

The three men then opened all the coffins.

"Huh?! Why is there one empty?!"

One of them yelled.

Everyone looked over and saw that among the thirteen coffins in a row, one was indeed empty!
"what happened?"

The mandrill asked.

The three of them knelt down immediately.

"That stone toad must have deceived me! They all say that toad is a golden-swallowing toad, but I never thought he would even dare to deceive me!"

E Zhifeng shouted.

"Didn't you open and count the bodies when you collected them?"

asked the mandrill.

E Zhifeng shouted, "At that time, these ice coffins were piled up in the goods of the Water Gang. I only checked the two on top and believed the stone toad. Temple Master, please wait a moment. The Water Gang is doing business in front of the mountain gate right now. I will go find him right away!"

"never mind!"

The mandrill shouted, "Who told you not to check it out in person? What's the point of looking for it now? Besides, the Land Gang is at odds with us, so are they going to cause trouble with the Water Gang?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The three of them kowtowed repeatedly.

"Twelve should be enough. Now I only need four eyes to make a twelve-eyed drought demon. I have been practicing for so many years and have dug out thousands of eyes. My hands are now familiar with it."

The three of them kowtowed again, "The temple master has great magical powers, and his method of refining corpses is unique in the world. He will definitely be able to refine a drought demon!"

The mandrill waved his hands, his gestures were no different from those of a human.

"We must succeed this time. Now that our Fire Temple is the only one in Tianjiao Mountain that is declining, it's time for us to show off."

At this point, the mandrill shook his head and sighed.

"That Cao Jin was too clever. He only went to Lost Soul Gorge. If he had come to Tianjiao Mountain, all that dragon meat would be good stuff. The rest could be given to the other four temples, but I really want his eight arms."

The three didn't dare to answer.

"Alright, get out now. Take my sign and claim your reward. Go to the Yi-shaped cellar and each person can pick up one corpse. Also, I'm going to lock up and seal the temple so I can concentrate on refining the Hanba. No one is allowed to disturb me!"

The mandrill threw a sign to the leader.

The man took it, and the three of them kowtowed repeatedly, thanked him and left.

Following closely behind the three people was an ape corpse released by the mandrill, a walking corpse at the Jindan realm.

Then, the sound of a door closing and locking was heard from outside.

Ye Lianchen, who had used the "Hide" spell to hide in the void and had the "Xuan Ji Wu Leakage Talisman" in his possession, was watching all this quietly by the fire pit. He could also see that the magical fluctuations and aura emanating from the ape corpse were stronger than those of the mandrill itself.

After all the people had left, the mandrill waved his hand, and all the twelve corpses in the coffin flew out and were thrown into the fire pit.

Among these corpses were the Miao friends Ye Lianchen made in Qilihefang, the unfamiliar people from Baiman Mountain, and the Taoist priest from Mount Shu who died at his hands.

But now, those people from various factions who fought desperately for their lives in their lifetime, after being smoked into red corpses by the fire evil for twenty years, were dug out again and sold to Xiangxi as materials for refining evil corpses.

Things in this world are unpredictable.

However, Ye Lianchen did not have much time to sigh. Looking at the many corpses flying into the air, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity, and it was very likely the only opportunity.

So he also flew up silently, and used all his strength to activate the "Xuan Ji Wu Leakage Talisman", trying not to produce any fluctuations in spiritual energy and breath. He hid under one of the corpses, and fell into the fire pit with many other corpses, causing blood to splash.

The twelve bodies finally floated to the surface of the water, but Ye Lianchen hid in the fire pond and did not cause any waves.
