Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.
From a young age, I ...
When the time came, these guys, upon hearing the fat man's command, all charged towards us in one go.
That would be troublesome.
Their densely packed tracks, coupled with their extremely fast movement speed.
It's really making me worried.
“Yiyi, why don’t you try talking to these insects…”
Just like we treated that ancient person before!
I leaned close to the girl's ear.
The voice was kept very low.
The girl first gave me a surprised look.
Then I started demonstrating for her.
"You little brats, I think you're all tired of living!"
Anyone who wants to grow up, go play somewhere else!
Be careful, or Grandpa will burn you to a pulp!
"By then, forget about the insect eggs; they'll be reduced to ashes, and even your parents won't recognize them!"
I cursed at the insects in those pits as if I were scolding a demon.
I originally just wanted to give the girl a demonstration that these things couldn't possibly have human intelligence.
Even if you can't understand the words, you can still sense the most basic emotions...
I simply cursed them outright.
These guys, if they had even a little bit of dark energy in them, should be able to sense the malice.
It's like how evil spirits are afraid of being scolded.
But to my surprise, it seems that I really did drive away these insects!
The leading insects were about as thick as my two little fingers.
It's not even as long as a hand.
After I scolded them, they seemed to have seen the King of Hell and quickly crawled towards the edge of the pit.
And that direction was clearly aimed at returning to the side of that big fat man.
The insects looked like bullied children, constantly trying to burrow into their parents' arms.
I was secretly pleased.
These guys may look disgusting, but they're actually all cowards.
At the same time, I realized that this kind of cursing seemed to actually work on them.
But these alone are not enough.
Just that fat man's spit was enough to completely cover the huge crater in front of us.
These things are like cells, like viruses; they are everywhere.
Who knows how much... was in that mouthful of saliva and vomit of his...
At the time, what I saw was already a huge area.
At that point, this house will become the insects' home!
I finally understand why there's no one left in this secret room.
If this really is a grave, then even if you put a few corpses inside, it wouldn't be enough for these insects to fill their gaps!
Just thinking about it makes me feel nauseous.
"Brother, why don't you try your cane..."
The girl spoke again, and at that moment I suddenly realized, "Oh right, I haven't used this cane at all."
This thing can at least be considered a relic of the ancients. As the first person to emerge from this mural, the ancients must have been quite capable.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been placed at the center of the entire mural.
But now we've stumbled upon the core of the ancient people's bodies, surely it will have some use?
Thinking this, I hesitated for a moment, then picked up the cane again and examined it closely.
But I found that most of the luster on it seemed to have disappeared, which puzzled me.
No way, could it be because that fat guy just charged straight at me and scattered this luster?
That doesn't make sense either. Logically speaking, this cane is an incarnation of that ancient person, while the fat man is just a little toad in the mural.
How could it possibly have such a powerful impact on the ancient people in the mural world? I've thought about it over and over again, but I still can't come up with an explanation.
At that point, I stopped thinking about it and decided to put the current situation aside for the time being.
The key issue right now is to get rid of these insects as soon as possible.
Then I took the cane and swung it hard at the group of insects.
What surprised me even more was that the insects didn't retreat when they were waved away; instead, they surged upwards even more.
Great, this thing seems to attract the insects in the murals more!
I know in my heart that no matter what, the ancients all emerged from that mural.
But when he was in the painting, he was merely a wall and a bit of paint, things that nourished the millions of decaying insects in the coffin.
Therefore, they are very interested in this spine, which is the cane in our hand.
I can understand that.
It seems that this cane is no longer effective at dispelling the swarm of insects.
At that moment, the Thunder Strike Sword also shouted in my mind.
"Master, hurry! My light is about to dissipate!"
Before Lei Jijian could finish speaking, I felt the light around me dim down a bit.
The fat man was still groping around in the dark, waving his hands haphazardly at the air, as if facing a formidable enemy.
But he never considered that we are not even by his side right now.
Instead, they were thinking about where and how to get out.
"I think the only way to intimidate them now is with your aura..."
After much deliberation, I finally spoke to the girl.
After all, the girl had been running this manor for far too long.
This place is a hidden compartment in the Blue Armored Compass Chamber, which is actually part of the shallow layer.
This shallow layer also belongs to the world beneath the manor's well.
I think that the girl is a very powerful force in the entire manor, and all the other creatures can sense that.
Just like that ancient man before, he could be controlled by a young girl, but what I said had no effect whatsoever.
I suspect this is definitely not due to actual strength, but more likely because the girl, as a local "powerful figure," exerted a deterrent effect.
"Let's give it a try, but this fat guy and these bugs are much fiercer than the ancients!"
Brother, this might not work...
The girl's tone still carried a hint of hesitation, and I understood that she was still somewhat worried.
Indeed, life and death hang in the balance now.
"I'll light up the surroundings for the girl!"
At that moment, Lei Jijian also shouted in my mind through telepathy.
I understand that it wanted to help the girl. After all, if the girl wanted to control those guys, she would definitely need someone to draw their fire.
The term "lightning sword" means that it directly turns the electric light to its maximum and makes it float on its own blade.
He then used himself as bait to directly enter the game, hovering around the fat man as much as possible to divert his attention.
That way, the girl would have a chance to speak to him. I thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.
He then conveyed the idea of the lightning sword to the girl.
"Don't worry, I can guarantee your safety..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lightning on the Thunderstrike Sword dimmed instantly.
Then the blue and white arc of electricity exploded instantly, turning into a ball of light!
