Chapter 56: I Am Really Not a Demonic Cultivator

Late at night, the city was quiet.

In Snow Moon City, Lin Jing came outside the Lotus Pavilion, which had already closed its doors.

Lotus Pavilion, Pavilion Master Hua, is an acquired Fire Spirit Body, a cultivator with a fire-attribute spiritual body!

It is indeed strange to think about it now that this person came to Snow Moon City many years ago.

A cultivator who practices fire-attribute cultivation methods came to do business in this city of ice and snow; there must be some ulterior motive.

Plus, Brother Ouyang bought pills to nourish yang energy from his hands and had contact with the other party, which increased the suspicion even more.

Although he didn't know how the other party, with Foundation Establishment cultivation, obtained the information about the strange Gu and the refining method of the strange Gu’s sub-Gu, everyone has their own opportunities, and currently, he is the most suspicious.

"Senior... any gains?"

The Divine Pine’s spiritual sense swept over, but it didn't find any trace of Pavilion Master Hua.

It was one thing not to find Pavilion Master Hua’s trace, but what left Lin Jing speechless was that he saw a youth riding a white horse wandering around in the snow.

"Why are you here?" The other party walked up and asked Lin Jing.

"I also want to ask, why are you here?" Lin Jing asked back.

"I still feel that the Lotus Pavilion has a problem," Gao Sheng frowned.

"My father is Nascent Soul, my grandfather is Soul Transformation, and my whole family are Golden Lotus-level customers of the Lotus Pavilion. Although I don't care much about it myself, every time I arrive in a city, the local Lotus Pavilion Pavilion Master will come to ask about my well-being, but this Pavilion Master Hua didn't come. What is he busy with? Strange, too strange."

"The Golden Core City Lord is not as busy as him!"

Gao Sheng made a deduction and stated the suspicious points of Pavilion Master Hua.

"This time... it makes sense..." Lin Jing nodded.

"You also think it makes sense this time?" Gao Sheng was surprised.

"Your grandfather is Soul Transformation; everything you say is right." Lin Jing didn't expect the other party’s background to be so great.

"The most important thing is that I am also suspecting that Pavilion Master Hua is the murderer behind the scenes now," Lin Jing said.

"We finally reached a consensus this time," Gao Sheng was very happy and said, "And I just investigated. I can't find Pavilion Master Hua at all tonight. I reasonably suspect that he saw that the matter was about to be exposed and knew that this genius case-solver, this young master, had come, so he intended to flee in fear of crime."

"Fleeing in fear of crime is not necessarily the case. Eight out of ten... his plan has reached the final stage."

Lin Jing looked up at the moon. Accompanied by heavy snow, countless spider-web-like lines began to shoot from the clouds to the ground in the sky, not knowing when.

Densely packed, as if weaving a huge spider web in mid-air.

Gao Sheng looked up and also saw this scene, and couldn't help but open his mouth slightly.

"Spiders, so many spiders!" he shouted.

On the white spider web covering the entire Snow Moon City, one after another fist-sized spiders hatched, each with not-weak demonic power.

These fist-sized white spiders fell from high altitude, pouncing on anyone they saw. A few of them attacked Lin Jing and Gao Sheng without warning.

"What kind of ghost thing is this."

Seeing this, Gao Sheng took out his fan and waved it forcefully. The terrifying hurricane wiped out all the attacking white spiders.

"This is... a companion Gu."

On Lin Jing’s side, he turned his hand and took out a mechanical bamboo spear. With one shot, with a loud bang, the white spiders attacking him were also blown to pieces.

"Go, Brother Lin, what kind of treasure is this?"

Lin Jing’s mechanical bamboo spear attracted Gao Sheng’s attention, making his eyes light up, feeling it was very interesting.

"Shouldn't you be more concerned about what these things are right now?"

Lin Jing said, there are too many. In a very short time, the whole street was full of white spiders, thousands, tens of thousands, and this was just a casual glance he took. Within the entire city, there were definitely more!

"You just said... companion Gu?" Gao Sheng’s expression changed.

Companion Gu is a Gu insect one level weaker than sub-Gu. Generally, they appear in large quantities only when a Gu King is born. They will plunder nutrients as much as possible and feed them back to the newborn Gu King.

"There really is Gu!"

At this time, a rainbow light swept across the sky, and City Lord Tang, who was covered in ice and snow, descended beside Gao Sheng and said, "Young Master Gao, are you okay?"

He looked solemn and rushed to protect Gao Sheng at the first moment, as if his safety was more important than anything else.

"I’m fine! City Lord Tang, a Gu King is about to be born in Snow Moon City!" Because of the previous attack, these spiders seemed to have consciousness, knowing that Gao Sheng and Lin Jing were not easy to deal with, and turned to crawl toward the distance.

Gao Sheng shouted anxiously: "In Snow Moon City, there must be a demonic cultivator of the Gu God Sect! The other party’s goal is definitely to refine the Gu King."

After saying this, his expression was strange, thinking of his previous deduction. The person in the city most likely to be a Gu God Sect cultivator was this City Lord.

He couldn't help but retreat behind the Dragon-Horned White Horse.

"Young Master Gao, don't be afraid! This City Lord will protect you well." City Lord Tang’s scalp was numb, only feeling that his official career had come to an end. However, compared to the situation in the city, he chose to guard Gao Sheng first, only ordering other cultivators in the City Lord’s Mansion to go out and suppress the Gu insects.

Protecting the people in the city is not necessarily Gao Sheng, but protecting Gao Sheng has a chance to keep his official hat.

"It is the strange Gu about to be born," the Divine Pine communicated mentally with Lin Jing.

"Then Pavilion Master Hua should be hiding somewhere, waiting for the strange Gu to be born beside him, and then absorb the strange Gu and flee immediately."

"Can Divine Pine Senior find him?" Lin Jing asked. "He is only at Foundation Establishment cultivation. Even if he absorbs the strange Gu, he shouldn't be a match for Senior, right?"

"With you here, he can't absorb it," the Divine Pine said.

Lin Jing’s expression was strange, thinking of a bad possibility.

The next moment, the sky changed again. Accompanied by rays of brilliant blue light permeating the spider web, above Lin Jing, a small spider the size of a fingernail, composed entirely of ice crystals... slowly took shape.

Although it was very small, the extreme cold it emitted almost froze the blizzard, making the time around it seem to slow down.

"This is..."

Seeing this strange Gu, Gao Sheng’s pupils shrank and he said: "Could it be, one of the ten strange Gu of the Gu God Sect, the Ice Soul Gu, which is said to have disappeared for a thousand years. How could it be reborn here!"

"Ice Soul Gu?" City Lord Tang was also shocked. Each of the ten strange Gu of the Gu God Sect is an innate Gu King. If it falls into the hands of a demonic cultivator and grows slightly, it will inevitably be a great disaster.

"Where is the Gu God Sect demonic cultivator!" City Lord Tang saw the Gu King appear and became extremely vigilant.

But who knew, the next moment, this Ice Soul Gu "whoosh" turned into an ice light and entered Lin Jing’s body at a speed that even Golden Core cultivators didn't react to.

"Damn, I’m going to become a demonic cultivator."

Lin Jing exclaimed in his heart.

"Even if the Fire Spirit Body and Primordial Yang Body are more suitable for Ice Soul Gu parasitism and suitable to become a comfortable warm bed for its growth, they are ultimately inferior to the longevity body. In terms of nutrients provided, they are crushed by the longevity body. In terms of the host’s vitality, they are also crushed by the longevity body. With you here, after the Ice Soul Gu is born, it will not choose the Fire Spirit Body as the first parasitic object, even if the other party has made very sufficient other preparations," the Divine Pine laughed.

"Let the Ice Soul Gu enter your body. It is the key to unlocking the Ice Soul sub-Gu poison. Don't worry that it will affect you. I will seal it in your body with a sealing technique so that it cannot absorb your power. This is also an opportunity for you. Didn't you say that demonic arts are just a kind of tool? When your cultivation base is successful, you can refine it. As for the Demon-Elimination Division, I will deal with them for you."

"I was just saying it casually!" Lin Jing’s body erupted with terrifying cold air, comparable to the ice-attribute true qi of the Foundation Establishment stage! Under the lingering of this cold air, his hair turned snow-white, and his pupils also turned ice-blue. Seeing this scene, Gao Sheng retreated repeatedly:

"So you are the Gu God Sect demonic cultivator, the Gu King actually merged into your body."

"I want to take you back to the Demon-Elimination Division!"

"I demon your White Dragon Horse." Lin Jing endured the coldness of his body. The next moment, a seal pattern like a pine nut slowly appeared on the back of his hand. With the appearance of this seal, the changes on Lin Jing’s body gradually disappeared, and his hair color and pupil color also returned to their original appearance.

At the same time.

A hidden cave in the city.

"I am about to succeed." A cultivator in red Daoist robes looked happily at the rebirth of the Ice Soul Gu, then looked blankly at the Ice Soul Gu not choosing to parasitize him, his face gradually turned red, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and fainted directly.

"My Gu! The Gu I waited ten years for! The Gu book records are false! Why didn't it choose the Fire Spirit Body! Why didn't it come to find the sub-Gu!"
