Chapter 108: The Stars Don’t Like Me Killing People
It is not easy for monsters to attach themselves to humans. One way is to coexist in a friendly way, such as the King of Kings and the black cat. The other way is to secretly parasitize when the human body is weak, and then gradually reveal themselves after taking root, such as Chen Li and the charmer.
Compared to the first type, the second type is more difficult to detect and more powerful. Only a very small number of high-level monsters can use this method. If it is discovered in time when the monster first sneaks in, although it will take some trouble, it is not impossible to exorcise it. However, if it is discovered after the monster has taken root, it will not only be extremely difficult to eliminate, but it will also harm the human soul and be extremely difficult to recover.
If dozens of experts had worked together before and used secret techniques, although it would have taken some time, they could still have separated the man from the demon.
But nowadays, experts are rare, and it has become extremely difficult to completely exorcise the demon, especially a powerful demon like the Charmer, whose strength is above that of high-level monsters.
This is also the reason why Chen Li gave up his martial arts and hid in the mountains.
Therefore, there is only one way to kill the enchanter.
Soul-destroying lamp.
When demons coexist with humans, they cling to and absorb the human soul, and conversely, the human soul also merges with the demon soul.
If the devil's soul is a vine, the human soul is a tree. When the tree dies, the vine will wither as well.
But Jiang Sheng didn't know that the evildoers had existed in the world for hundreds and thousands of years. They were cunning, stubborn, and extremely sinister, and their ways of escaping were endless.
Just now, she used the illusion array as a base and borrowed the power of everyone's fear to split her and Shen Li's souls into thousands of pieces, and among these pieces, some belonged only to her.
Afterwards, the enchanter continued to disassemble these demon soul fragments, and took advantage of the people in the illusion array who were frightened and vulnerable to invade their bodies.
Therefore, as long as one person can leave alive in today's situation, she can successfully escape.
Even if the soul-destroying lamp goes out, she can still survive.
Live secretly.
Jiang Sheng summoned the soul lamp. The enchanter looked at the dim candlelight, closed his eyes calmly and accepted the impending destruction of his body, and secretly chanted a spell to move his main consciousness to those soul fragments.
But in an instant, her eyes opened wide and her pupils trembled violently.
Jaw-dropped was not enough to describe her shock, and horrified was not enough to express her fear.
She stood there in a daze, her heart stagnant, and it took her a long time to recover.
It was only at this moment that she discovered that the pieces of her soul that she had separated with so much difficulty and endured the pain of having her soul torn apart were all attached to that person's dark aura.
Not a single one is left behind.
Monsters don't know color, hot or cold.
But why did she feel cold all over and her body trembled uncontrollably, unable to stop?
It turned out that her so-called betting everything was just like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of that person.
It turned out that what she thought was a clever move was exposed in front of that person.
It turned out that the man had no intention of letting her go, it was just a matter of time.
She felt as if she was pushed to the edge of a cliff. One step back would lead to the abyss, and one step forward would shatter her to pieces.
Why?
Why did she work so hard but end up like this?
Why did she try everything, but in the end, she was still just a speck of dust?
She glanced at the man out of the corner of her eye.
Although he was several meters away from her, he still pressed down on her demonic soul like a mountain of love.
Although I am in the bustling crowd, it seems as if I am separated from others by a vast void.
Yeah, he's always been like that.
Since it came into being a hundred years ago, it has always stood above all living beings.
He looks down upon the world with arrogance, as if no one can ever step into his world, let alone his heart.
But, there are differences after all.
Her peripheral vision shifted to the seriously injured woman.
If she had paid a little more attention when the demon was searching for someone, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
But now, things have come to this point, and she is already at the knife's chopping block. Can she use this tiny difference to find a glimmer of hope for herself?
Jiang Sheng had already used most of the magic of the Soul-Destroying Lamp, and the candlelight was even weaker than before.
No.
She couldn't wait until the soul lamp was extinguished.
The soul lamp goes out, the main soul disappears, and her magic power dissipates soon. At that time, she will have nothing to rely on, and only those exposed soul fragments will be left, waiting to be surrounded and ground into pieces.
At this moment, all the spirit beasts and monsters in the field lost their minds.
Jiang Sheng's head also began to hurt severely, but fortunately she was still able to retain her sanity and prevented the soul lamp from being snatched away by the distraught Si Li.
Gu Nuoyi had a headache for a moment, and after suppressing it with his spiritual power, he drew his sword to protect the soul lamp.
Qin Feng glanced at Xu Xingxing in Xu Yuan's arms, and wanted to say a few words, but in the end he said nothing. He drew his sword and went to Jiang Sheng's side.
Fang Zhiming also wanted to go, but he was worried about Lin Yue, and the spirit beasts and monsters in the field were not as orderly as they were at the beginning. They were all like crazy, with bloodshot eyes, killing indiscriminately.
In an instant, screams rang out, blood splattered everywhere, the roars of magic spells were endless, and some spirit beasts even transformed into their original forms, fighting frantically. For a moment, it was like falling into purgatory, and bloody murderous aura swept over.
Hou Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the woman tightly in his arms, and calmly knocked away several attacking spirit beasts.
When he was about to control the black air to bring down the power of the demon soul of the charmer, he felt a sudden pain in his chest. Yuan lowered his head in surprise, and saw the woman in his arms with bloodshot eyes, staring at him blankly, and the woman's hand was completely immersed in his chest!
Seeing him looking at her, the woman's eyes did not change, and without pausing, she moved her hand another two inches towards his heart.
Hou Yuan stared at the woman for a moment, then raised his hand and slowly pulled her hand out of his chest. Blood gushed out, but his expression did not change. He even carefully controlled the blood so as not to stain her body.
He brought the hand in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. For a moment, he felt all the blood rushing to his head, and the soaring anger exploded directly in his body.
The woman's nails had been completely split, and five nail plates had been turned over and pierced into the tender flesh of her fingertips, making her bloody and horrible to look at.
Perhaps it was because his sternum was hard, and this bare hand had no spiritual power, so he just used force casually, and the woman's delicate hand was scratched by the instantaneous impact.
Murderous intent surged uncontrollably, and anger surged like a huge wave, nearly causing him to lose his mind. Shu Ji's sinister gaze pierced through the crowd, causing the man to break out in a cold sweat.
So, who gave you the courage to think about touching her again?
Hundreds of women took advantage of the chaos to escape a moment ago, and in just a moment they were ten miles away. The fragments of the demonic souls on their bodies had been completely stripped off along with the black air attached to them the moment Hao Yuan was distracted.
Zhu Yuan's eyes were red, and a crazy smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
What? Do you really think you can escape like this?
But these thirty years are too long, have you forgotten who I am?
Suddenly, hundreds or even thousands of black auras like giant dragons burst out from his body. The black dragons spread out in all directions, roared loudly, and chased in all directions at an extremely fast speed. In just two breaths, they pulled back the hundreds of fleeing women from dozens of miles away and threw them to the ground.
If he hadn't still had some sense and remembered that Xingxing didn't like him killing innocent people, these hundreds of women would have been smashed into pieces by him.
The air here suddenly froze, and Fang Zhiming and others were all stunned.
Those crazy spirit beasts stopped their movements instantly because of the main soul's fear.
Everything in the field came to a standstill, the air was dead silent, and thousands of eyes were looking at the man who was surrounded and surrendered by hundreds of black dragons.
The man was dressed in black, and seemed to blend into the dark air. Only the golden bell around his neck flickered several times in the dark night, emitting clear and bright refraction of light.
His face was filled with anger as he casually sat cross-legged on the ground, but that area had now become the only center of this place.
But Zhu Yuan was unaware of it and just stared at the person in his arms.
He raised his hand and tapped the woman's brow lightly. The woman frowned and looked quite painful. He held her with one hand and comforted her gently, while the fingertips of his other hand slowly led out a black wriggling soul.
As soon as the soul was exposed to the air, it was burned to ashes by the black air.
Shu Ji, who was sitting on the strange rock, suddenly screamed in pain and rolled to the ground. Even though her whole body was twitching with pain, she did not dare to wait any longer. She directly got up and knelt down towards Hou Yuan, burying her head deep in the sand. Her whole body was trembling violently, and she dared not raise her head again.
The woman fell asleep, and Hou Yuan stood up holding her. A huge black dragon swam over, stopped obediently beside Hou Yuan, and turned into a ball of soft black gas.
Hou Yuan leaned over and gently placed the woman on the black air, then took out the medicine from his Qiankun bag, held the woman's hand and began to apply the medicine as if no one was there.
Her serious expression and gentle movements made people feel that this woman was the most precious treasure in the world.
Everyone in Kunlun reacted and pointed their swords at Hou Yuan. Fang Zhiming's face turned pale from shock, and his sword-holding hand trembled violently. "Xiao Hei, no... you are not Xiao Hei! Who... who are you?!"
It is really ridiculous to ask such a question.
This black air has hovered over Kunlun countless times during the great battle to chase away demons.
It covered the sky and the sun, and was in chaos.
Apart from that person, who else in this world has this ability?
But he couldn't believe it.
Isn't Wei Yuan already dead?
In full view of everyone, his body was shattered by heavenly punishment.
How did it become a demon and a spiritual beast that lived with them day and night?
Gu Nuo was also extremely surprised, his eyes were wide open and his lips were extremely pale, but he changed his mind a little faster than Fang Zhiming, pointing his sword straight at him with a look of alertness on his face.
Compared with the other two, Jiang Sheng adjusted faster. She was surprised for a moment and then attacked with a sword, but Hou Yuan just raised his eyes slightly and froze her in place.
"Xingxing doesn't like me killing people." Hou Yuan carefully bandaged the delicate hand and gently placed it beside the woman. Then he turned to look at the people in Kunlun and said calmly, "If you were not useless, why would I do it myself? If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have expected anything from you in the first place."
"...Are you really...that person?" Qin Feng's eyes were bloodshot, and he asked through gritted teeth, "Senior Sister, do you know about this?"
Zhu Yuan's eyes darkened, and balls of black air poured into Qin Feng's mouth, stretching it out instantly. He wanted to vomit but his body was fixed, so he was forced to endure the black air that kept pouring into his mouth!
Gu Nuo and Fang Zhiming were about to stop them, but they found that they were also fixed in place and could not move at all!
"You want to kill him?" Fang Zhiming's voice trembled with anger.
"Of course..." Seeing everyone's fear, Yuan smiled, "Not really, but if Xingxing hadn't stopped me, I would have really wanted to do it."
He raised his hand to collect the black energy, and looked at Qin Feng coldly as he leaned over and retched: "I will only tell you this once, and I won't say it again.
"Don't think about what you shouldn't think about, and don't even look at it."
"Yuan, what is your purpose? Why are you hiding in Kunlun under an assumed name?" Gu Nuo thought that he was just an ordinary spirit beast a moment ago, and now he has changed so suddenly, which makes people feel extremely horrified. Thinking about the past again, it is even more terrifying.
No wonder he dared to go to Yuqiu alone, no wonder a huge demon that had never been seen before suddenly jumped out of the execution ground, no wonder Yuqiu was killed overnight, no wonder the evildoer who was publicly beheaded in the sky was now standing in front of him in good health.
He Yuan didn't even glance at him, and just said slowly and perfunctorily, "Wait until I finish your unfinished business, then answer me."
After she finished speaking, a sharp scream suddenly came out of Shu Ji's throat. Everyone looked over and was stunned for a moment. They saw that the soul of the charmer was torn out of Shen Li's body by an extremely strong external force.
At first, only a twisted and broken head was pulled out, then the body. Soon, the residual soul of the monster that had been parasitic on Chen Li for decades was easily and completely peeled off from Chen Li's body.
Everyone stared at the scene in front of them in amazement.
I'm afraid that in this world, only Hou Yuan can extract a deep-rooted evil spirit from a human body so easily and quickly!
Chen Li lost his support and fainted on the ground.
At the same time, Gu Nuo and Jiang Sheng felt relaxed without the shackles. They both looked at Hou Yuan deeply, then flew to Chen Li and helped her up.
One person fed her the pills, and the other supplied her with spiritual power.
Hou Yuan glanced at that place and said, "Her soul has been eroded for too long and has been shattered. Not only has her personality changed drastically, but she can only live for two years at most."
Gu Nuo's body trembled, and he replied with difficulty: "I know."
Zhu Yuan didn't care any more and looked at the terrifying and ferocious soul of the charmer.
Then he raised his hand slightly, hooked his index finger, and saw that everyone in the field except Fang Zhiming and Qin Feng looked up in pain, but in just a moment, a twisted and wriggling soul emerged from between everyone's eyebrows.
Like maggots.
Jiang Sheng and Gu Nuo looked at the disgusting soul in front of them, their expressions were quite complicated for a moment, they looked at each other but did not speak.
After extracting all the broken souls, Hou Yuan suddenly closed his palms, and those souls were burned to ashes one after another.
The enchanter's miserable cry lasted only a moment before being blocked by the black air.
Zhu Yuan glanced over with a sinister look: "But don't you see anyone sleeping peacefully?"
Many people whose demon soul fragments had been extracted fell to the ground and fell asleep, but everyone who was awake knew who he was referring to.
Wei Yuan raised his finger again, and saw the sword on Si Dai's head fly away from his eyebrows. The head also flew up and piled on Si Dai's body. The bowl-sized wound quickly began to heal.
Jiang Sheng suddenly gripped the sword tightly and looked at the scene warily.
After Si Dai recovered, he immediately knelt on the ground and called out softly, "Lord God... I don't know..."
"Which hand hurt her?"
Si Dai's body trembled and his whole body tensed up, but he raised one hand without any delay.
There was no fluctuation in the tone of Wei Yuan's voice, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing, but at that moment, everyone in the scene felt a chill from the inside out.
"Eat it."
"One bite at a time, chewing slowly,"
"Eat it."
