Chapter 3: The Soul is Poisonous

~10 min read 1,921 words

This voice was cold and miserable, making people's hair stand on end.

"Who? Who is speaking?" The white-clothed man drew his flying sword and shouted at the statue.

"Gaga, the deity is right here, can't you ants see?" Above the temple, the gloomy and terrifying voice came again.

Zhang Xingyu looked up and saw a black smoke dancing and circling above the three people's heads.

This black smoke turned a few times in mid-air, then turned into a monster in black clothes and black robes with a bang, and landed lightly in front of the three.

"Heavenly Demon!" The white-clothed man was shocked.

"The deity has been trapped in this damn temple for three hundred thousand years. For three hundred thousand years, the deity has almost forgotten the taste of souls. Humans, since you have come, hurry up and offer your souls." The Heavenly Demon grinned and pounced on the white-clothed man.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the white-clothed man pulled the red-clothed woman beside him to his front.

He jumped onto the flying sword, drove the magic formula, and wanted to escape on the sword.

The Heavenly Demon turned into a black smoke and drilled into the red-clothed woman's forehead, and a moment later drilled out from the red-clothed woman's forehead.

The red-clothed woman's face twitched a few times, and then she fell to the ground straight and lifeless.

The Heavenly Demon turned into a hideous human face again. He smacked his big mouth, a scarlet tongue kept wriggling in his mouth, and his face was full of satisfaction.

"Delicious. Such a delicacy is truly endless aftertaste!" The Heavenly Demon savored it for a moment, then flashed and pounced on the white-clothed man on the flying sword again.

At this moment, the white-clothed man had already flown to the sky above the temple on his sword. However, in the void, there seemed to be an invisible force trapping him firmly, making him unable to move.

The Heavenly Demon flew to the white-clothed man's side, but was not in a hurry to take action.

He flew around the white-clothed man three times slowly, and then stopped in front of the white-clothed man again.

Looking at the terrified white-clothed man, the Heavenly Demon was very happy: "Haha, be afraid, be afraid, only souls full of fear are the most delicious."

The white-clothed man's eyes widened, his face distorted, and a brownish-yellow liquid flowed down his thighs, wetting a large part of his hem.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but he was so terrified that he couldn't even move his tongue.

The Heavenly Demon nodded with satisfaction.

However, he was not in a hurry to devour the white-clothed man's soul.

The Heavenly Demon turned around and landed lightly in front of Zhang Xingyu again.

"A mortal's soul, let's treat it as an appetizer before the big meal." The Heavenly Demon grinned.

"My, my soul cannot be eaten, my soul is poisonous." Zhang Xingyu's face turned pale, and his voice trembled.

Seeing the red-clothed woman's end, he was already terrified beyond terror. However, he still endured the fear and opened his mouth.

"The soul is poisonous? I'm not afraid of poison. Hehe, are you afraid? If you are afraid, just scream." The Heavenly Demon smiled lightly, with a playful expression on his face.

A moment later, seeing that Zhang Xingyu didn't scream, he turned into a black smoke and pounced on Zhang Xingyu fiercely.

Oh no!

Zhang Xingyu didn't have time to dodge, watching the black smoke pounce in front of him.

He closed his eyes and waited for death.

"No!"

A shrill scream sounded in his ears. However, the Grim Reaper did not descend. The one who made the scream was not himself, but the Heavenly Demon who pounced on him.

It was too late, it was fast. The Heavenly Demon had just pounced in front of Zhang Xingyu when he was dragged by a powerful force and sank into Zhang Xingyu's chest.

At the same time, a dazzling golden light lit up on Zhang Xingyu's chest.

That golden light illuminated the temple, illuminated the desert, and lasted for a full incense stick of time before slowly disappearing.

Zhang Xingyu was stunned in place.

Just now, a mechanical and cold voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Ding-dong, love is connected, service is forever, the God Domain System is dedicated to serving you. The host has gained 1 million points of Demon Qi, converted into 10,000 points of God Yuan, meeting the system activation conditions, the God Domain System is officially activated."

Demon Qi value? God Yuan value? What are these things?

God Domain System? What the hell is that?

He subconsciously touched the pocket on his chest and found that the black stone inside had disappeared.

Could it be that the broken black stone was the God Domain System?

God Domain System, sounds very awesome.

In his previous life, when reading system-flow novels on websites, he would always see those transmigrators with awesome systems. With a system, you get whatever you want, and you can't be more arrogant. I didn't expect that my character value would explode, and I actually got an awesome system.

Heaven has not treated me badly.

"System, system, calling system!" With excitement in his heart, Zhang Xingyu summoned the system in his heart.

The system did not appear.

What the hell? Why didn't the system come out?

After thinking about it, he stretched out his index finger and tapped lightly on his forehead. According to the records of system-flow novels, the center of the eyebrows should be able to open a system panel.

A moment later, he was disappointed. The panel did not appear either.

Oh my god, leeks stir-fried with green onions. Could it be that I had auditory hallucinations just now?

That shouldn't be! Try again!

"System, system, where are you?" Zhang Xingyu called softly.

The system did not speak.

Could it be that I really heard it wrong? Zhang Xingyu's full joy instantly turned into full disappointment.

"Mortal boy, hurry up and hand over the treasure!" A loud shout woke up the disappointed Zhang Xingyu.

I don't know when, the white-clothed man had broken free from the restraint and came to Zhang Xingyu with his sword.

"Treasure, what treasure?" Zhang Xingyu asked suspiciously.

"Mortal boy, don't delay, how can a treasure be owned by an ant like you. If you don't hand it over, I will kill you." The white-clothed man said fiercely.

"I really..."

He had just said the word "I", and the white-clothed man couldn't wait to slash with his sword.

Damn it, slashing as soon as he speaks, is there any humanity, is there any martial virtue.

Zhang Xingyu was startled and hurriedly dodged behind the pillar.

Clatter!

The flying sword slashed on the pillar, splashing a string of bright sparks.

"Almighty system, help!"

Zhang Xingyu shouted for help from the system while dodging around the pillar.

The white-clothed man was stunned: "You still have helpers?"

Zhang Xingyu didn't answer him, just shouted desperately: "System Great, help!"

However, he shouted several times, but the system didn't respond at all.

The white-clothed man was furious. In his hand, the long sword was more urgent than the last, and the sword light was more fierce than the last.

Zhang Xingyu dodged dangerously around the pillar. Several times, the sword light brushed past his body, taking away pieces of his clothes.

After dodging like this for a while, Zhang Xingyu was already covered in wounds, and his whole body was stained red with blood.

His body became heavier and heavier, and his steps became more and more difficult.

Seeing this, the white-clothed man grinned fiercely: "Mortal boy, just accept your fate. This day next year will be your death anniversary."

After speaking, he drove the flying sword to stab Zhang Xingyu in the chest.

Is it over?

No, I don't accept my fate.

Zhang Xingyu shouted in his heart.

"Ding-dong, love is connected, service is forever, the God Domain System is dedicated to serving you. The host has successfully blood-sacrificed the artifact Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing Pillar, gaining the high-level divine ability 'Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing'."

"Ding-dong, love is connected, service is forever, the God Domain System is dedicated to serving you. The host has 10,000 points of God Yuan, meeting the minimum conditions for using the high-level divine ability 'Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing'. Does the host want to consume 10,000 points of God Yuan to use the high-level divine ability 'Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing'?"

"Yes."

Just as the thought flashed through his mind, Zhang Xingyu's mouth couldn't help but shout loudly: "Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing, suppress!"

Words follow the law.

Behind him, the runes on the stone pillar shot out dazzling golden light.

The light shone on the white-clothed man. The sword light dissipated instantly, and the white-clothed man shrank rapidly.

A moment later, the light disappeared completely, and the white-clothed man had turned into a stone puppet the size of a fist.

Turning people small.

Material transformation.

The strange scene in front of him shocked Zhang Xingyu so much that his chin dropped to the ground.

After a long time, he rubbed his eyes, bent down to pick up the stone puppet, and looked at it carefully in his hand.

The stone puppet was lifelike, with clear eyebrows and eyes, still retaining the posture of slashing with a sword.

Zhang Xingyu stood still for a long time before he felt pain everywhere in his body.

After resting for a while, he moved to the side of the red-clothed woman's corpse and pulled off the storage bag at the woman's waist with force.

The storage bag was tied very tightly, and no matter what he did, he couldn't open it.

After a while, he slapped his head: "I'm so stupid, doesn't the storage bag have someone's primordial spirit imprint? Although this woman is dead, the imprint she left on the storage bag should still be there."

Right, I can use the blood sacrifice method.

Didn't the Xianxia novels I read before often have such plots?

Zhang Xingyu covered the storage bag with his own blood, and after a while, the tightly closed bag mouth really loosened.

He kept pouring out the things in the storage bag, and in a short while, a small mountain piled up at his feet.

Zhang Xingyu squatted down and carefully flipped through these things.

Two jade slips with patterns, several bottles the size of a palm, more than a dozen colorful clothes, more than twenty boxes of various sizes, hundreds of crystal clear stones, and several strange gadgets.

Zhang Xingyu first opened the small bottles one by one to check, and found that they contained unknown pills. Some were red and green, some were fragrant and smelly. Not knowing the medicinal properties of the pills, using them randomly might cost him his life. He thought about it, didn't dare to use them randomly, and then plugged the mouths of these bottles one by one.

After reading the pills, he picked up the two jade slips again.

Referring to the saying in Xianxia novels, he stuck the jade slip to his forehead.

However, after a long time, the jade slip had no reaction at all.

"That shouldn't be? Almighty system, please give me some inspiration!"

The system still didn't respond.

Zhang Xingyu thought about it, then covered the jade slip with blood and stuck it to his forehead again.

"Hee hee, that's not how you read a jade slip!" ===== CHAPTER 4 =====
