Chapter 179 Origin



In the water curtain.

An old, yellowed scroll, buried underground, flickers like breathing.

There were wisps of black air surrounding the scroll, like plant roots.

There was also a wisp of black gas that extended all the way to the surface.

I don’t know when.

Several rays of light, guarding a rickety flying boat, fell into the valley.

There were several male and female monks in different clothes, and those who got on and off the flying boat were some mortals in luxurious clothes.

After the flying boat landed, an explosion occurred at the rear, and it seemed that it would not be able to take off again.

They discussed anxiously for a while, and then, as if sensing some threat, they all looked in the direction they came from.

A lion-headed demon with a wingspan of ten meters landed here with a group of demons.

Then, the two sides started fighting without much exchange of words.

The human monks were obviously no match for the demons and were always at a disadvantage.

The monks gradually became exhausted and huddled together.

But soon, something unexpected happened.

After sensing the approach of living creatures, the scroll buried underground, after fully regaining its light, broke out of the ground.

A female cultivator dressed in green appeared here silently.

Hope appeared on the faces of the humans, while the lion-headed demons became cautious.

However, something unexpected happened to both parties.

The green-clad female cultivator ignored the human side's request for help and, after a disagreement, she directly killed a cultivator with the colorful silk in her hand. The human side immediately changed color and was at a loss in despair.

Before the lion-headed demon had time to be happy, the green-clothed female cultivator changed direction, swung out the colorful streamer, and killed several small demons.

Now, both sides knew that there was something wrong with this female cultivator in green.

The demons' offensive was ineffective, so the lion-headed demon made a quick decision and spread its wings and fled. The smaller demons saw their leader running away and also scattered.

Seeing the godsend opportunity, the human race did not delay and ran away.

This situation made the female cultivator in green stunned for a moment.

However, due to her extremely high realm, she simply threw out the colorful streamers, letting them swim like dragons, chasing the fleeing shrimps, while she herself flew into the air to chase the lion-headed demon.

Only two or three demons escaped.

On the human side, no mortal survived, but on the cultivator side, including the one who was killed instantly earlier, only two died in total.

Soon, the valley became quiet again.

After an unknown amount of time, a group of human cultivators returned to this place, buried the bodies of the mortals and cultivators who died here, erected monuments, and held sacrifices.

Peace has returned to this place again.

The scroll left, but there was still black air remaining underground.

This wisp of black air seemed to have spirituality. It followed the scent from underground and drilled into the tomb of one of the immortal cultivators.

Time changes.

For some reason, this picturesque valley became increasingly eerie.

One day, the tomb of an immortal cultivator suddenly exploded, and a zombie covered in black air crawled out. It stood there for several days, then moved forward in a certain direction.

The black gas remained in the grave pit.

Over time, this wisp of black air continued to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to strengthen itself, gradually occupying the entire valley and eroding all the tombs.

The picture on the water curtain ends here.

"Another ghost painting fragment?"

"Could it be that it's about the great war between demons and humans in Chaoyun Province a few decades ago?"

"Since there are survivors, the news of the ghost painting's appearance should have been known to the cultivators in Zhongfu Prefecture, but Chengying didn't know. So this news either didn't spread or was blocked..."

Wang Ze learned some martial arts from the ghost-painted female cultivator, which unexpectedly activated the plot.

I can only say that fate is wonderful beyond words.

Lu Qing thought about it and decided to take the water curtain and show it to Li Rulan.

There were a total of forty-eight fragments of the ghost painting, and within such a short period of time, three fragments had reappeared. Perhaps this marked the beginning of the ghost painting's revival?

Once it recovers, it will be another catastrophe, so we must be prepared in advance!

"Big Head, how are you recovering?" Shuangjiao asked softly, "These hairless monsters haven't fled. It seems they still want to keep us here. I'm afraid they have some hidden cards up their sleeves. But don't worry, I have some hidden cards too..."

“…”

"Hmm? What did you say?"

"...I feel...very bad."

Big Head made a sound as thin as a mosquito.

Shuangjiao looked down at Datou and his expression changed drastically.

The root of his head, which was only covered with scars a moment ago, now faintly emitted a bit of black energy! !

Black smoke like cigarette smoke slowly flowed out of Big Head's mouth, nostrils, and ears.

His eyes were completely blocked by the black energy, and his pupils were completely invisible!

broken!

This black energy corroded Big Head!!

Shuangjiao was still hesitating about how to rescue his companion, but the next second, dozens of vines emerged from the ground, entangled his four hooves, and trapped him in place.

The thorns on the vines also pierced into Shuangjiao's flesh and began to absorb his spiritual energy.

When the sharp thorns pierced the flesh, a wisp of black air also seeped into the body of Shuangjiao along the wound!

"Big head! Big head!!"

Shuangjiao shouted while using his internal energy to ignite fire on his four hooves to resist the erosion of the black air.

The black gas is extremely corrosive. In addition to corroding flesh and blood, it can also corrode his spiritual energy!
