Chapter 579 Plague and Witchcraft



This was to prevent the people from the Cangming Realm from finding the Ice Palace after he left.

Before, he didn’t have the Yuan Zhai Jie, so he couldn’t receive this array plate spiritual object. Now that he has the Yuan Zhai Jie, he naturally will not let the array plate that entered the Ice Palace continue to be scattered outside.

After making sure there was nothing to worry about, Kong Ju stepped onto Dapeng's back again.

Swish! The latter flapped his wings and split the vortex on the Heavy Water River into two halves.

Then his figure turned into a golden stream of light and rushed out of the sea.

Whoosh! From a distance, one could only see a golden light flashing on the sea.

The next moment there was no trace.

On the sea, there wasn't even a single wave or wind; this was the hanging bird.

Kong Ju estimated the speed of Dapeng and found that it would take less than three days to go from the Endless Sea to Tianqi and back.

Han Xi, who was also riding on the Dapeng, couldn't help but look at the rapidly moving sea surface behind him, and said in admiration of Dapeng's speed: "No wonder the Xihuang blessed land has been destroyed for thousands of years, but the records of ascending the skylark can still be found in the world today."

"This speed is far beyond the reach of even the peak of Palm Life."

This also includes Han Xi himself, he doesn't think he can be faster than this skylark.

You know, Dapeng is only in the middle stage of life.

Although Dapeng seemed to be focused on getting on with his journey, he could clearly hear Han Xi's voice on his back.

There was a smug look in his eyes, and his speed increased by three times.

In just two hours, Kong Ju and his party had already reached the edge of the Endless Sea, the sea area covered by thunder, from the sea area where the Ice Palace was located.

Boom boom boom! The sound of thunder filled the sky and the earth.

The thunder and lightning all around them naturally could not pose any threat to them at all.

Just before passing through the thunder domain, Kong Ju's tiny pupils keenly saw the figures of dozens of Cangming Realm masters under the endless black sea water of the thunder domain.

Even though they were all tens of miles deep in the seabed of the thunder zone, they could not escape the pupils of Kong Ju and Zhu Wei.

These palm creatures from the Cangming Realm shuttled around at the bottom of the Thunder Sea, seemingly looking for something.

"What are they doing?" Doubts arose in his heart. Kong Ju could have taken advantage of the fact that these masters had no time to take care of him and walked out of the Endless Sea directly.

This scene still made Kong Ju frown. He waved his hand, signaling Dapeng to slow down.

Although Han Xi had not practiced the magic of immortal pupils, his cultivation was very high. He also sensed the presence of more than a dozen palm students from the Cangming Realm after Kong Ju, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

If he had not promised Kong Ju to be cautious, he would have probably rushed down by now.

Because looking around, among these dozen or so palm students, there is not a single one who has reached the peak of the palm student level.

Even if he was at the peak of his powers, he would not be a match for Han Xi.

Therefore, he acted recklessly.

Kong Ju looked at those palm students in silence and rested for a while.

Then he looked up at the sky above the thunder area.

The thunder was still roaring, and from time to time, lightning as thick as a bucket would fall from the thick clouds and strike the surface of the endless sea, with a deafening sound.

He thought of the first time he came to this Endless Sea and heard Senior Wudong and Ningshuang talk about the reason for the formation of this sea of ​​thunder.

It is said that a true immortal of the Thunder Dao died here.

This formed a minefield that will last for thousands of years.

The Cangming Realm came here to plunder the resources of the Xianyun Realm.

Their intention of coming to this minefield was obvious.

"It's probably because of the Immortal Lei Dao." Kong Ju already had a plan in mind.

Soon a hint of sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Even Guanghan Palace Master Yi Jinghai couldn't find the immortal body of Lei Dao Zhenxian. It would be strange if these powerful palm-born beings could find it.

Obviously they are all doing useless work.

But if he just left like this, Kong Ju felt a little angry, because the leaders of the Cangming Realm below were the mortal enemies of the Xianyun Realm.

Just when he was wondering whether he should cause some trouble for these people.

"Who!" A loud roar suddenly came from the surface of the sea of ​​thunder.

Then the water surface began to boil, and a powerful figure dressed in pink clothes appeared in the sea water.

Judging from the fluctuations of his soul, he is clearly in the late stage of palm life.

A great late-stage leader of Tianxiang Sect.

Obviously, this powerful person is not very deep and is only responsible for vigilance.

The demonic aura of Dapeng and the murderous aura of Han Xi were so conspicuous, as obvious as the sun in the sky, that he naturally saw them after a moment.

The roar from the late palm student naturally alerted the dozen or so palm students underwater.

As they were rushing towards the sea, Kong Ju knew that his chance was gone. If he didn't leave now, it would be difficult to leave later.

He then patted the big roc under him gently and ordered calmly: "Go!"

With Dapeng's speed, there is absolutely no way these people could catch up with him.

However, Kong Qi had not yet finished his words.

Bang! A blood-colored sword beam suddenly slashed towards the late Cangming Realm Master who was on guard below.

The person who took action was naturally Han Xi.

He did not take out his sword, but simply put two fingers together and slashed in the air towards the late palmistry master.

The astonishing sword intent burst out, and the blood-red sword light split the thunderclouds that had been gathering in the sky all year round in two.

Kong Ju didn't even need the Zhuwei Pupil to clearly see the azure sky behind the calamity clouds.

With one sword, Han Xi split the thundercloud area into two halves.

Along with the thunderclouds, the sea water in this area and the powerful late-stage Palm Life master who was in charge of vigilance were also divided into two parts.

He only had time to swing out a powerful spirit-infused weapon in an attempt to block the sword.

But even Han Xi couldn't block the defensive soul-infused weapon. After a flash of sword light, the shield-shaped soul-infused weapon was split into two.

The body of the powerful palm-born was also split into two by the sword light at the same time as the soul-infused weapon was destroyed.

The incomplete part was that he fell face up into the sea with fear in his eyes.

Then the whole body shrank at an extremely fast speed, and all the blood in the body had been drained away.

"This sword!" Kong Ju's eyes suddenly bulged, amazed at the power of Han Xi's sword.

He was in the late stage of palm cultivation, but he couldn't even put up a decent resistance against Han Xi's sword.

"As expected, even Master has praised him as the number one prodigy of Wudong's previous generation."

"His achievements in swordsmanship are even higher than Master Dongxian's!"

The blood that disappeared in the late stage of the palm life had naturally been collected between Han Xi's palms and turned into a ball of pure human spirit essence.

Even his soul was swallowed up by the Taixu Cauldron which was transformed from Han Xi's soul.

"Let's go!" Han Xi killed the late-stage palmistry cultivator with one sword, as if he had done something insignificant, and glanced at Dapeng indifferently.

Dapeng had already been frightened by Han Xi's ferocious sword. With just one glance, his body shook uncontrollably, and then he disappeared into the minefield.

Only a dozen or so Cangming Realm Palm Sentences that had just emerged from under the sea were left, looking with horror at the dead body of the late-stage Palm Sentence that was already deader than dead.

One sword killed a person in the late stage of Zhang Sheng. There was no other possibility except that he was in the peak stage of Zhang Sheng.

Therefore, none of the dozen or so palm masters from the Cangming Realm at the scene dared to take action to stop the two people who made the attack.

Watch the golden light disappear in the direction of Wudong.

Golden light flickered in the sky. In just an incense stick of time, Dapeng had already left the Endless Sea and arrived at the border of Wudong.

Kong Ju glanced secretly at Han Xi beside him.

The latter just happened to swallow up the essence of the human spirit refined from the physical body of the great master in the late stage of Palm Life.

At the end, he couldn't help but close his eyes, a look of enjoyment on his face.

"Han Xi is only in the late stage of Palm Life, but he was able to kill a Palm Life from Cangming Realm who is also in the late stage of Palm Life with one sword."

"Before, I thought Lei Zun could definitely kill Han Xi, but now I'm a little uncertain." Kong Ju looked at Han Xi's somewhat perverted appearance and his heart was slightly touched.

After Han Xi recovered from his injuries, his strength increased dramatically.

In addition, with the human spirit essence refined from Wei Jingtai's hematopoietic blood, his cultivation is now only a step away from the peak of life.

In terms of realm, Lei Zun no longer has the advantage.

Fortunately, Lei Zun obtained a quasi-immortal weapon. In a fight of life and death, Kong Ju still felt that Lei Zun had a greater chance of winning.

While being surprised by the intimidation of Han Xi's sword, Kong Ju suddenly spoke up and asked Han Xi as if he was chatting: "Brother, do you know the origin of that thunder area?"

Han Xi had just eaten the essence of human spirits to satisfy his cravings for many years, and he was in a good mood. He smiled evilly and said, "I'm not sure, but I heard that it might be related to immortals."

"According to what I know, the Thunder Domain is indeed related to immortals." Kong Ju told Han Xi everything he knew about the Thunder Domain.

As the latter listened, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

But who is Han Xi? You tell him one thing and he has already told you two or three things.

Looking at Kong Ju, he replied meaningfully: "Do you suspect that those cultivators from other worlds took priority in occupying the Endless Sea just for this thunder region that is suspected to be the place where the true immortals fell?"

"It's not doubt, I'm sure." As he spoke, Kong Ju looked back in the direction of the Thunder Region and added, "I think there must be more than one Zaoxuan from the Cangming Realm watching this area."

“When the boundary gate is opened, these people will definitely go there first to find the inheritance left by the True Immortal in the human world.”

After all, he is an immortal. In this world where immortals do not appear, even Zao Xuan cannot withstand such temptation.

Han Xi frowned and thought for a moment, then spread his hands and replied casually: "Your senior brother is no match for Zao Xuan now, so what can you do even if you know about this."

Han Xi's words made sense. Kong Jue wouldn't be able to do anything even if he knew about it. He would probably report it to his master Huangfu Ying, who would only frown.

Huangfu Ying dared to ambush and kill the people of Yutingmen, but he did not dare to set a trap for Zaoxuan.

In the face of absoluteness, all strategies are in vain.

But he knew Zaoxuan.

"This matter needs to be reported to True Man Changqing!" Kong Ju silently memorized the clues along the way and decided to go to Qinghu Blessed Land to report the matter to True Man Changqing in person after returning to Wudong from Tianqi.

This matter involves immortals.

True Man Changqing would definitely not just sit there and do nothing.

As for how she would deal with it, that was a game between Zao and Xuan, and Kong Ju could not intervene.

Thinking of this, Kong Ju also collected his thoughts, turned his head back, and thought lightly: "Let's go to Tianqi first and bring Han Xi's precious daughter back."

Counting the time, nine years have passed since Kong Ju buried Ge Xia and Han Dong'er was reincarnated.

"Han Dong'er should be nine years old in this life."

More than a year ago.

Gujiang and Cangming Realm's masters joined forces to attack Tianqi.

Although that battle was directed towards the Tianqi Imperial City, many heinous crimes were committed along the way.

In addition, the witches' magic was strange, and after many states were massacred, even the grass and trees withered wherever the blood flowed.

Although Tianqi finally reversed the situation and resolved the crisis because of the appearance of Bai Zangzhu, the immortal who has passed away.

The trauma caused to the land of Tianqi cannot be recovered in just one year.

Over the past year or so, although the Tianqi royal family and several Tianqi sects have tried their best to eliminate the witchcraft left on the earth by those witch practitioners.

But the effect is not obvious.

Because the monks and mortals who managed to survive in those areas had to leave their hometowns and go to areas that had not been invaded by witchcraft to survive.

Some remnants of witchcraft he carried on his body spread uncontrollably to more people.

As a result, more than half of Tianqi's land was plagued by the strange witchcraft.

That kind of witchcraft can cause skin ulcers and sores, causing endless pain at all times.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Even cultivators in the Ascension Wheel realm cannot be completely immune, let alone ordinary people.

Therefore, the number of people who died because of witchcraft over that year was more than the number of people who died directly in that battle.

The great power of Zhangsheng can eliminate the witchcraft of Gujiang.

However, the mortals and monks infected with the witch disease were too scattered, and Tianqi's great master was unable to handle them all.

It was not until Yun Mo's palm master came to help that the spread of the witch disease was temporarily controlled.

Even so, Tianqi was still in mourning during this year.

In Tianqi, golden light flickered in the sky.

In a flash, it's hundreds of miles.

On Dapeng's back, candlelight rose in Kong Qi's eyes.

Zhu Wei's pupils could take in all the tragic scenes along the way.

The stench emanating from the rotten flesh on the refugees' bodies drifted between heaven and earth, and the smell was even stronger than the poison pill refined by Kong Jue.

"Why has Tianqi become such a horrible state?" Han Xi watched all this indifferently. He was not moved by the starving people in front of him. Instead, his tone was filled with gloating.

"Perhaps it is the trauma left behind from the battle when Gujiang invaded Tianqi." Kong Ju Zhuwei's eyes swept across the dead bodies. He could see an extremely strange black mist lurking within the festering flesh.

Once a living creature passes by the black mist.

The lurking black mist seemed to have life, floating towards the living creatures.

In this way, word spreads from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

And that method was very similar to the Gujiang witchcraft that Kong Ju knew, a kind of witchcraft called plague witchcraft.

In addition, Tianqi had been invaded by Gujiang before, so he was already 70% sure in his heart.

"Never mind, take me to see Dong'er quickly." Han Xi was not worried about the suffering of the people in Tianqi. Instead, he was a little uneasy about the situation of his daughter.

After all, his daughter's reincarnation is on the land of Tianqi.

Kong Ju was also feeling a little uneasy.

He was afraid that when he found Han Dong'er, he would see a dead body.

He couldn't believe what crazy actions Han Xi, who was by his side, would take if Han Dong'er died of the plague in this life.

"That is the only shackle that holds this beast down. It cannot be broken."

Kong Ju silently prayed that Han Dong'er would not take action. He nodded in response to Han Xi and ordered Dapeng to go to the village where Han Dong'er was born.

After one stick of incense.

The hill where Ge Xia’s cenotaph stood appeared.

Kong Ju and Han Xi jumped off the big roc's back together.

Dapeng transformed into a palm-sized bird, stood on Kong Ju's shoulder, and landed with them in the village in the mountains.

Before landing, Kong Ju had already taken in the scene of the village.

There is no trace of the hustle and bustle that existed before Kong Ju left.

The wooden house and thatched hut where Han Dong'er was born had long since collapsed.

The collapsed building was covered with grass and trees as tall as a person, and it looked dilapidated.

Among the grass and trees, one could vaguely see several black human skeletons that had rotted away to the point where only bones remained.

That's what it looks like after dying from plague or witchcraft.

Obviously, the village where Han Dong'er lived was also affected by the plague and witchcraft that affected Tianqi.

"Oh no!" This made Kong Ju's heart skip a beat, and he secretly groaned: "What I fear is bound to happen!"

While thinking, Kong Ju secretly glanced at Han Xi standing beside him.

The latter's face had turned gloomy. Naturally, he saw what Kong Ju saw as well.

Those scarlet eyes were gleaming with blood, like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

Seeing that Han Xi was about to explode, Kong Ju hurriedly said, "Brother, don't worry."

"Ge... Before Master died, he used the Palm Life Spirit to nourish Dong'er's soul. Her soul carries the characteristics of the Palm Life Spirit, so she will definitely be able to resist the plague witchcraft."

"It's not that easy to die."

"Let's just look for it!"

Fortunately, neither Kong Jue nor Han Xi found the bodies of several children around nine years old in the village.

After confirmation by Kong Ju and Han Xi, neither of them belonged to Han Dong'er.

Han Dong'er has practiced blood refining techniques, and the essence of Ge Xia's soul is even stronger.

Even if she died, that aura would still be on her body.

Therefore, Kong Ju and Han Xi were both sure that Han Dong'er's body was not here.

This is the only good news.

"Search separately!" Han Xi was concerned about the safety of his beloved daughter and suppressed his anger. After leaving a word, his figure disappeared on the hill where Gexia's cenotaph was located.

"Oh!" Kong Ju rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

In this chaotic Tianqi, looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Fortunately, Han Dong'er was only nine years old, and a child could not walk far. Even if he ran non-stop for a year, it was impossible for him to run more than two thousand miles.

Therefore, the search range is not very large, and Kong Ju has the pupil of Zhu Wei, which gives him an advantage in finding people.

"Don't die, sister!" Muttering to herself, Kong Ju left this place with Dapeng on her shoulder and headed in the opposite direction of Han Xi.

Kong Ju's inference is correct.

But there are so many mortals within a radius of two thousand miles.

There were also quite a few children around nine years old.

It was so slow that even Kong Jue's pupils were a little overwhelmed.

After watching for several days, his eyes became sore.

Fortunately, God will not let down those who work hard.

Finally, on the third day, Kong Ju saw a little girl who was suspected to be Han Dong'er's reincarnation in a city one thousand one hundred miles west of the village where Han Dong'er was born.

This city is one of the few cities within a thousand miles that has not been destroyed.

It was filled with refugees fleeing from all directions.

The stench emanating from them was overwhelming. As soon as Kong Ju approached, the Dapeng on his shoulder let out a few strange cries and ran away in disgust.

Kong Ju could only block his sense of smell, dive into the city, and land not far from the girl who was suspected to be Han Dong'er.

The reason why Kong Ju thought she might be Han Dong'er's reincarnation was because her soul was brighter than that of ordinary mortals.

Comparable to a cultivator at the Yanglun realm.

It is particularly eye-catching among the crowd, and from a distance, it looks like a bright light.

But there are many souls in this world that are stronger than ordinary people.

Kong Ju was not sure either.

"Oh, it's all Ge Xia's fault. He suppressed Han Dong'er's soul power before he died." Kong Ju muttered.

This is because a mortal baby cannot bear the soul and body of a cultivator in the Ascension Wheel Realm.

Only when Han Dong'er embarks on the path of cultivation, can her soul slowly remove the means left by Ge Xia.

It can be considered a kind of protection for Han Dong'er.

But now it has become a disadvantage for Kong Jue to find Han Dong'er.

So Kong Ju did not show up immediately, but hid beside the girl and observed her secretly.

She was thin, and perhaps it was because she hadn't eaten for a long time, but her cheeks were slightly sunken and her face was pale and thin.

Fortunately, there were no sores or rotten flesh on her body left by the plague or witchcraft.

She squatted alone in the corner of an alley off the street, with her head buried between her knees.

Although he looked extremely weak, his eyes were always staring at a charity stall on the street through the gap between his knees.

There are relief measures in various parts of Tianqi to prevent the refugees from starving to death.

But the amount of food donated every day was limited and there were too many refugees.

Only those refugees who got there first could get food.

Now is not the time to give alms.

There were many refugees like the girl guarding around the charity stall.

Kong Ju roughly understood the girl's thoughts, and then analyzed: "There are no sores on her body, but some of the refugees were not infected by the plague witchcraft. I think they have special physiques."

Not long after, several figures who looked like city guards appeared at the stall carrying several large baskets of food.

They wrapped themselves in three layers of thick clothing, trying to prevent themselves from being infected by the refugees.

One of the city guards said, "It's time for dinner."

Boom! The refugees who seemed to be staggering on the street and struggling to stand up just a moment ago, instantly rushed towards the stall.

The girl followed suit.

Although she is small and looks thin, she runs faster than most people around her.

I also found a good seat and was given two steamed buns in advance.

The girl, holding the steamed bun, struggled to squeeze out of the crowd that kept pushing into the stall. Because she tried too hard, her already pale face turned red.

After finally squeezing out of the crowd, the girl returned to the corner where she had been squatting before, and wolfed down the object in her hand, revealing her little face hidden under her dirty black hair.

Suddenly, the girl stopped chewing and looked towards the entrance of the alley.

Two refugees who failed to get any food and were covered in stench and sores surrounded the girl.

With faces covered with rotten sores, they looked at the object in the girl's hand with greed, and their intentions were obvious. (End of this chapter)
