Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 322 Immortal Cult ([-])
Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the wooden house, when a disciple pushed the door open, handed him the file in his hand, and said, "Master, this is an urgent report from Jiangdong."

Tang Ning took it and opened it, only to see that it said: Cheng Tianmiao, the chief disciple of Jiangdongnan Intelligence Station, is present, suspected to have found the trace of Suzaku, and is investigating.

"Jiangdong found traces of the Immortal Sect. I have to go and investigate. You can deal with the matter here yourself." Tangning left the wooden house and headed straight for two days. .

A man heard a strange noise in the courtyard, and hurried out of the hall to greet him. Seeing him, he saluted: "Junior Qin Xiao has met Senior Tang."

"Where's Cheng Tianmiao? Call him to see me."

"Yes." The man replied, and drove away with the magic weapon.

Tangning entered the hall and sat cross-legged to practice.

About half a day later, when the sky was dawning, a fair-skinned man hurried over, entered the hall and saluted, "Disciple Cheng Tianmiao pays his respects to Master Tang."

Tangning opened her eyes, "Have you found Suzaku's whereabouts?"

"Not yet, the disciples are still organizing personnel to investigate."

"How did you find Suzaku?"

Cheng Tianmiao said: "Eight days ago, I got the news that Wu Bin, a son of the Wu family, was killed, and the Wu family sent a large number of people to chase after the murderer. At that time, there was an eyewitness. According to him, the assailant's technique was very strange. The chest was pierced by a magic weapon, but healed quickly, I guess this may be the host of corpse insects."

"So I found him and asked what happened that day. According to his description, although the assailant was wearing a mask, he was tall and tall, with big arms and a round waist. His figure was almost the same as that of the Suzaku in the portrait, and his cultivation was also at the tenth level of Qi refining."

"I hurriedly sent a message to the Central Plains intelligence station with the Xuanying, and asked them to tell my uncle, and at the same time, I sent more people to track it down."

Tangning nodded. Eight days ago, when the full moon was approaching, it must have been a corpse insect host that came out to look for food.

"Then what is Wu Bin's cultivation?"

"Only the sixth level of Qi refining."

"Have the Wu family found the perpetrator?"

"No."

"Take me to Wu's house for a walk!"

"Yes."

The two left the Taoist temple. Tangning's spiritual power wrapped him up and flew into the sky. After walking for several hours, they came to a place shrouded in clouds and mist.

Cheng Tianmiao pointed down and said, "Master, that's where the Wu family is."

The two of them walked through the clouds and came to the gate of the majestic mansion. As soon as the light faded, a woman came to meet her: "I don't know why senior came to my house?"

"My disciple, Tang Ning, has some matters to discuss with the Patriarch of your family. Please inform me."

"Senior, please wait a moment." The woman entered the mansion, turned back after a while and said, "Patriarch invites Senior Tang to enter."

The two followed her to a large hall, above which sat a middle-aged man with a beard and big ears. When he saw the two coming, he got up and greeted him: "Fellow Daoist Tang came to the humble house. I don't know what you can do."

"I came here especially for the murder of your family's children."

"Please sit down."

The two took their seats as guests and hosts, and Cheng Tianmiao stood behind him.

Wu Tianyu said: "My nephew was unfortunately killed, why did Fellow Daoist Tang come here? Could there be something hidden in it?"

Tang Ning said: "To be honest, the perpetrator who killed my nephew is the wanted man we have been hunting for for a long time. He is a cultivator of an illegal organization of a cult. I have come here today to learn something. I know that your government has sent a large number of people to investigate Does this person have any clues?"

Wu Tianyu said: "After my nephew was killed that day, the disciple guarding the soul stone reported it to me at that time, and I immediately sent people around to search and investigate. The next day, a casual cultivator surnamed Yu came to visit my house. Tell what happened."

"I just found out that my nephew was killed near Huangyuan County. When I went to track him down, he had already disappeared. In the next few days, I sent someone to search privately, but there was no trace of him."

"Speaking of which, I'm afraid I don't have as much information as you. I don't know the identity, origin, or appearance of the assailant."

Tangning said, "So, your government doesn't know any clues about the perpetrator?"

"Ashamed, it is true."

"I have a document and portrait of the assailant here. If your government knows the information about the assailant, please let me know. I will be very grateful." Tangning flipped through her left hand, took out a rolled paper and handed it to him.

"Okay, if I have news of the thief, I will definitely inform my friends to arrest him." Wu Tianyu took the portrait.

"Tang said goodbye."

"Sorry for delivery."

Tangning left the Wu family's mansion and returned to the Taoist temple, ordering Cheng Tianmiao to continue to track down Suzaku's whereabouts.

………………

In the deep mountain in the east of Tianfu County, two rays of light descended, revealing the figures of three men.

One person has smooth eyebrows and bright eyes, with regular facial features.One has a hulking body, thin eyes and a long beard.

It was Jiang Yuhuan and Guan Sheng who were going to Xichuan.

The two men's spiritual power wrapped Xu Ru and flew all the way to Qinchuan for three days.

When the moon is bright and the sky is bright, the moon is hanging high.

Xu Ru's breathing was slightly rapid and his breath was disordered.

"How is it? Have you noticed the breath of the corpse insect host along the way?" Guan Sheng asked

Xu Ru shook his head and said, "No."

Jiang Yuhuan looked at him: "How do you feel now? How long can you hold on?"

"Heavy head, qi and blood surging, it has been like this every month for the past few years, and tomorrow he will completely lose his sense of autonomy."

Guan Sheng frowned and said: "It seems that we must find him a food quickly, otherwise tomorrow he will become unconscious and difficult to control. I will go and catch a disciple of the Demon Sect."

Jiang Yuhuan nodded, Guan Sheng turned into a shadow and left. After walking for a while, he came to the attic of a gambling house and hid his figure.

There were people coming and going in front of the attic door, after about an hour or two, a man dressed in the costume of the corpse puppet sect came out and flew away with his sword.

Guan Sheng followed closely behind him, and walked for several miles, but seeing no one around, he caught up with the figure, flipped his hand, and shot the three-foot red sword at him.

The man from the Corpse Puppet Sect heard a strange noise and was about to turn around when the red sword pierced through his chest, the man fell down and fell from mid-air.

Guan Sheng Dunguang caught up with him, his spiritual power wrapped him away, returned to the forest, and threw the body down.

The next day, Xu Ru's breathing became more and more rapid, his eyes gradually turned red, and his body shape changed drastically. He lay on the ground, his whole body grew stronger, his whole body was chubby, and he gradually lost consciousness, hissing and screaming.

He was lying on the ground, moving slowly like a bug.

Seeing that his expression was very painful, he occasionally spit out two vague words from his mouth.

Jiang Yuhuan and Guan Sheng put on the invisibility talisman and watched him quietly from the sidelines. Xu Ru completely lost his self-awareness as the moon was rising. next to the dead body.

He opened his bloody mouth and bit down.

There was bright red blood, and the mouth was full of flesh and blood. The sound of chewing and swallowing was constantly occurring in the mouth. Xu Ru's body kept twisting, like a bug, eating the man bit by bit.

The pale moonlight shone in the deep forest, the surroundings were silent, you could hear needles falling, only the sound of chewing flesh echoed, the scene was extremely weird.

Seeing his strange behavior, Guan Sheng ate the man bite by bite, his hairs stood on end, goosebumps stood up all over his body, and he felt terrified in his heart.

Although his cultivation level is much higher than his, but such a cruel and terrifying method has never been seen before.

Even though he was prepared in his heart before, seeing this with his own eyes, he still couldn't help but escape from the bottom of his heart.

The so-called killing is nothing more than nodding. He has killed a lot in his life, all of them were killed by swords. He has never seen such a strange situation.

This is just a corpse, and many of the people these Immortal Cult usually eats are living monks, what a horrible and desperate situation, just thinking about it makes cold sweat break out.Before I knew it, my back was soaked.

If it's a ferocious beast eating people, I don't feel anything, but wearing a human body makes people shudder.

Guan Sheng couldn't bear to look any further, and quietly turned around.

About an hour or two later, the man was eaten clean from head to toe, leaving only a few strands of hair, some shredded clothes and indistinct pieces of flesh and bones on the ground.

Xu Ru seemed to have had enough to eat and drink. He rolled over like a bug, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When the sky was turning white, Xu Ru opened his eyes, his eyes had regained their clarity, looking at the debris on the ground, his face was expressionless.

Jiang Yuhuan asked, "How do you feel now?"

"It's relaxed, and the spiritual power in the body has increased a little."

"When did you completely lose your sense of autonomy?"

"I don't know, my head is heavy all day long, and I can't tell day from night at all."

Jiang Yuhuan fell silent.

"I saw that you were still struggling until dusk yesterday. Could it be that you didn't notice it at all?" Guan Sheng asked.

"I don't feel it."

"It seems that the second generation of corpse worms has not only improved their abilities, but also has stronger control." Jiang Yuhuan said

Guan Sheng said: "How is the performance of the first generation of corpse insect hosts?"

"A generation of hosts will only completely lose their self-awareness on the night of the full moon, and they have maintained a certain level of sobriety before. And they don't have such obvious worm-like performance."

"Insectization?" Xu Ru asked puzzled

Jiang Yuhuan said: "When you lose consciousness, not only does your whole body change drastically, but you also move completely like a bug. This is not the case in a generation of hosts."

"Even when they are eating, they still maintain a human behavior, and you squirm like a bug. After eating the flesh and blood, you fall into a comatose state, which is also an unprecedented performance of a generation of hosts."

"I think this is the spiritual power contained in the flesh and blood that the corpse worms in your body are digesting and transforming."

"Is this the case when you first suffered from this disease three years ago?"

Xu Rudao: "I don't know which aspect Senior Jiang is referring to? I don't know what happened yesterday, let alone the way of wriggling like a bug."

Jiang Yuhuan said: "Have you been like this from the beginning? When the moon is full, you start to lose consciousness?"

Xu Rudao: "No, at the beginning, my condition was not so serious. I still remember that the first time I got sick, the moon rose high. It's just that the sinking time of consciousness became longer and longer. Until now, the day before the full moon, I felt Dizzy and dizzy, and lose consciousness on the full moon day."
