Chapter 385 I'll Test the Water Temperature for You
"Shut up! This is the corpse of our sect leader!"
Ji Ruo looked at the so-called Corpse Ancestor. His body was obviously sanctified, but a large piece of the clothes on his abdomen had been torn off by someone, revealing his strong abdominal muscles.
Its entire body was shining with golden light, and it looked very hard.
This corpse seems to be familiar to Ji Ruo.
"Did Gu Shaoxuan become a bad person later? Tsk, he wanted to bully me because I wouldn't be annihilated, right?"
"Boy! How dare you call my leader by his real name!"
A believer glared and became anxious on the spot.
"You are indeed very strong, but now that our sect leader, Corpse Ancestor, has arrived in person, no matter how strong you are, you can never be a match for Corpse Ancestor!"
Ji Ruo was amused: "Guess why he has no head?"
"Um?"
Ji Ruo had no intention of explaining, he wanted to ask Gu Shaoxuan in person.
This guy let him go back then and allowed him to use his longevity to make contributions to Da Xia in order to atone his sins. How come he became the leader of the Corpse King Cult in just twenty years?
So the plan was put into action.
"Watch the punch!"
There was no fancy moves. Ji Ruo jumped up and a straight punch dropped from the sky without any fancy moves.
This punch directly created a huge fist mark - it was not from any special martial arts, but just a pure fist. The fist mark was simply condensed from a large amount of martial arts essence.
"Oh, the power of my corpse master is beyond your imagination."
The church members laughed.
They actually don't have much respect for the so-called Corpse Ancestor.
The fact that they arrested two people and brought up the Corpse Ancestor is enough to prove it.
The zombies of the Corpse King Cult are meant to be used.
"Really? Then imagine my power." Ji Ruo grinned.
The starry sky appeared behind him, and thirty-three big stars fell one after another following Ji Ruo's fist.
"What, what is this?!"
The church members were stunned.
The so-called big stars are actually Ji Ruo's thirty-three main star clusters.
One has a diameter of 365 meters and is solid.
Even Ji Ruo himself could not imagine his power because there was no specific way to measure it.
The so-called Corpse Ancestor let out a silent roar - after all, he had no head, so he couldn't roar.
Facing the starry sky, he raised his arms stubbornly, trying to resist.
However, the power contained in the thirty-three big stars is beyond even Ji Ruo's imagination. Fortunately, he is a warrior and has perfect control over the power. Otherwise, any random movement in his daily life may cause a disaster.
Thirty-three big stars followed Ji Ruo's fist, smashing down one after another.
The terrifying force was superimposed thirty-three times. Even the Corpse Ancestor was powerless to resist and was suppressed on the spot.
"snort!"
Ji Ruo floated to the ground and swung his arm. The stars in the sky disappeared instantly, leaving only an extremely terrifying huge pit. The corpse ancestor was lying in the pit. Although his body had been sanctified long ago, his bones were broken and he had no strength to get up.
…………
On the rooftop of a building, Lao Ji, who was discussing the follow-up details with Lao Liang, suddenly changed his expression and looked surprised.
"That's not right. Am I already this strong at this time?"
Lao Liang sighed, "Even if he faces me now, he still has the strength to fight... Tsk tsk, Lao Ji, when we went through this period, did you hold back?"
"It seems not..." Lao Ji was very confused: "I remember that at that time, the Corpse Ancestor blocked us for a long time. When we arrived, the Nian Beast had already run away. Therefore, we wasted a lot of time and were forced to stay in the 'future'..."
Lao Liang asked, "Is there any difference between this time and that time?"
Lao Ji pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that there was no 'us' at that time... This time I saved the time machine, so I don't need to sacrifice anyone to rebuild it. I guess that's where the problem lies."
“Will it have any impact?”
Lao Ji glanced at him and said, "Let me calculate it."
As he spoke, Lao Ji counted on his fingers.
"It doesn't have much impact. The Nian Beast can still be eaten, but it will come a little earlier."
Lao Liang was shocked: "You can calculate it, but why are you pinching my fingers?"
Lao Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense! If I don't pinch you for the question you asked, then should I pinch myself?"
“…”
Lao Liang was silent for a moment, then asked, "Speaking of which, why is there such a big difference between his 'future' and our 'future' at that time?
Why didn't we have 'Lao Liang and Lao Ji' at that time?"
"Maybe..." Lao Ji looked up at the sky: "It's because 'I' created the time machine. The main material of the time machine is the 'life simulation scroll'. The possibility of the 'future' has been opened up."
"Is that so?" Lao Liang nodded: "I really don't understand."
"It doesn't matter. I just made it up anyway."
Lao Liang: “…”
"Anyway, get ready, we'll be meeting soon."
"Okay." Lao Liang smacked his lips and suddenly thought of a serious question: "Wait a minute, since this incident will end so soon, then was my previous visit to the General Affairs Office in vain?"
"It seems so."
“…I knew it!”
…………
Ji Ruo raised his hand and sprayed out a stream of silk, which pulled up the corpse ancestor at the bottom of the pit.
The believers nearby were so dumbfounded that they didn't dare to stop Ji Ruo at all.
Ji Ruo didn't intend to care about them.
"Tear~"
Ji Ruo tore off a large piece of the already tattered clothes on the Corpse Ancestor.
Then Ji Ruo casually took out a branch from his four-dimensional pocket and simply combined the two things.
Soon, a "soul-calling banner" that looked like a small red flag used by tour guides appeared in Ji Ruo's hand.
"Gu Shaoxuan, your soul has returned!"
If Ji waved the soul flag, his true energy would be activated.
The next moment, a cold wind blew.
A ghost was summoned uncontrollably by Ji Ruo from an infinite distance.
When he successfully condensed his form, not only he was stunned, but Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian were also stunned.
"Ji Ruo?" Gu Shaoxuan looked at Ji Ruo in confusion: "Why are you here? No, why am I here..."
"Wait a moment, let me ask you first..."
Ji Ruo looked up and down at Gu Shaoxuan with a strange expression.
Although he is now a ghost, his soul is extremely solid. At first glance, he is no different from an ordinary person.
Of course, that doesn't matter.
What's important is Gu Shaoxuan's current outfit——
At the moment, he was wearing a bright yellow plastic safety helmet and a dirty vest. Originally, the vest should have been white...
He was wearing a pair of equally dirty gloves on his hands, and a pair of brown, tattered overalls on his lower body.
Oh, and a pair of open-toed shoes...
Then, appearance - to be honest, when I last met Gu Shaoxuan, although this guy was not a good person, he looked pretty good.
Although he carried a coffin all day long, he still took good care of his personal hygiene.
At this moment, he had an unshaven beard, a weather-beaten face, and was covered in dust, looking like someone who had just suffered a beating from society.
"What have you been doing lately?"
Seeing Gu Shaoxuan's current appearance, Ji Ruo's strong dissatisfaction just now dissipated a little.
Maybe Gu Shaoxuan did not break his promise?
"What else can I do? I can just move bricks and build a house in the secret realm."
"Twenty years?!"
"Well, what else?" Gu Shaoxuan spread his hands and said, "I almost made a big mistake back then, and I deserve all this. For the past twenty years, I have worked day and night without a break. Even though I am a ghost now, I am almost exhausted to death again...
I have to do it, my brother chases me and beats me, but he is also very tired. I have not had a rest in these years. He says he is supervising me, but in fact he has been helping me share the burden. He has also not had a rest...
But these are nothing. Being tired is fine. My body was stolen a few years ago. I couldn’t leave and couldn’t find it. You don’t know, I…”
Gu Shaoxuan began to complain bitterly.
However, Ji Ruo noticed that although this guy was complaining, there was always a smile on his face.
Ji Ruo knew that this was because his brother could finally stay with him all the time.
As he listened to Gu Shaoxuan's complaints, Ji Ruo became more and more embarrassed.
He quietly removed his foot from the corpse, and all the anger he had just felt disappeared.
"Ahem, well, I summoned you here because I wanted to give you a surprise..."
"What surprise?"
Ji Ruo pointed downward and said, "Look, what is this?"
"What the hell?! My dead body?!"
Gu Shaoxuan quickly lifted up his own body.
However, his body had been beaten to pieces by Ji Ruo. Even though it still looked like a holy statue, it had become limp and could not even stand up.
"How did my body become like this!" Gu Shaoxuan was shocked, but even so, he still did not forget to thank Ji Ruo: "Thank you, Ji Ruo, my body has been stolen for a while, and I have been worried that it would be used to do something strange.
Even though it's broken, it's good to be able to find it back.
By the way, where did you find it? Come to think of it, it seems like I haven’t heard from you in twenty years, right? "
"They stole the body!" Ji Ruo was the first to complain, and pointed at the believers who were confused by the appearance of Gu Shaoxuan.
"you?"
Gu Shaoxuan turned around with an ugly expression.
"My body shows signs of having been subjected to ritual torture... I'm already dead, but you still won't let me rest in peace. You even dared to mess up my body like this!"
"Ah, no, it's——"
The Corpse King Cult members pointed at Ji Ruo in a panic, ready to report him.
"Shut up!"
Ji Ruo raised his hand and sprayed silk to seal the believers' mouths. He said with deep sorrow, "You have the courage to do it, but not the courage to admit it, right? I am really ashamed of you!"
"???"
The believers were speechless, their eyes widened with a look of disbelief.
Isn't it because of you that the Corpse Ancestor became like this?
"Gu Shaoxuan, these guys are from the Corpse King Cult. There are still many Corpse King Cult followers in Yuncheng. They control a large number of zombies. I have something important to do. Can I hand it over to you?"
Ji Ruo said.
"Of course you can." Gu Shaoxuan nodded: "The Hell Rebirth Sutra is a martial art that I created myself. The current zombie and ghost systems are all derived from the Hell Rebirth Sutra. I have a way to deal with them.
Whatever you need to do, just go ahead and leave it to me."
"Okay, bye!"
Ji Ruo quickly grabbed Liang Shixian and ran towards Cuihu Park.
"By the way, I've already asked all the questions you need to ask. There's no important information, so you don't need to ask again!"
"Thank you, Ji Ruo, you helped me a lot!"
Liang Shixian: “…”
…………
green lake park.
The Nian Beast has absorbed too many evil thoughts, and its strength has soared to an abnormally terrifying level.
The followers of the God Worshipping Cult who stayed here, including their leader, were no match for the Nian Beast.
They have tried to escape, but Nian's qualities are growing along with his strength.
They didn't run at the beginning, but now they can't run even if they want to.
The temperature here is extremely high, and the artificial lake in the park has long dried up, revealing the cracked earth.
The only living person, the leader of the God-worshipping cult, was lying on the ground, withered, seriously injured, and dying.
The power of the sun that he had longed for was about to cost him his life.
Facing the huge claws of the Nian beast, the leader of the Worship God Cult showed a look of despair.
He was powerless to resist.
"Pause!"
Suddenly, an erratic sound came from afar, and the whole world suddenly stopped.
If Ji Ruo brings Liang Shixian with him, swinging silkworms, the affair will come late.
"It was a close call. This guy almost died."
Ji Ruo dropped Liang Shixian and landed like a superhero.
Liang Shixian: “…”
Although he was speechless, he was not in the mood to complain.
He had carefully observed while he was hovering in the air just now, but he could not find any trace of Liang Shijing in the entire park.
Yes, there is only a huge and terrifying beast, a group of zombies, and a dying man.
"Where's Xiao Jing?"
After Liang Shixian landed, he searched around the park using the abstract watch that Ji Ruo had drawn on his wrist.
Nothing was found.
Ji Ruo pulled the God Worshipping Cult leader, who was also suspended, into the time-stopping area.
"you……"
Looking at the entire world that had been silenced, the leader of the God Worshipping Cult was very shocked.
"Where's my sister?"
Liang Shixian grabbed the collar of the God Worshipping Leader, pulled him up, and shouted angrily.
"What sister?"
The leader of the Worshipping God didn't react at first.
"That's the girl you kidnapped before!"
"There is another little boy." Ji Ruo added, "He looks almost as handsome as me."
The leader of the Worshipping Cult opened his mouth.
After a brief shock, the almost exhausted body finally responded.
He stretched out his hand towards the two of them and said, "Water, water..."
He was nearly killed by the Nian Beast's yang power and was now severely dehydrated. When he came to his senses, he just wanted to drink water.
"You want some water?"
Ji Ruo touched his chin and said, "Your condition is not good. You need to drink hot water."
As he spoke, Ji Ruo took out a bottle of mineral water and inhaled and exhaled the hot power from his palm, making the mineral water boiling in an instant.
[A book reading app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Yeguoyuedu! It is really useful. I use it to read aloud and listen to books to kill time while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here. yeguoyuedu ]
"Come on, drink it... Wait, with your current body condition, it might not be appropriate for you to drink such hot water directly. Let me test the temperature for you first."
As he spoke, Ji Ruo raised his head and drank the hot water in the bottle in one gulp.
"I did it, is that good enough?"
The leader of the God Worshipping Sect: “?”
"If you want to drink water, tell us where those two children are!" Ji Ruo said coldly.
"them……"
The God Worshipping Cult leader looked behind the two of them.
“Hasn’t it always been there?”
They were both horrified.
