Chapter 43: Extorting two major experts

Although the Blood God and Red God sects belong to righteous and evil, because the divinity of the gods they worship is somewhat similar, their believers are full of characters like "brainless reckless men," "fighting lunatics," and "war maniacs."

Even so, the two sects have always lived well, and their power is huge, enough to prove the terror of their strength.

Unfortunately, this time they met their nemesis.

A total of three people, all dead.

Afterward, these nearly a hundred Undead Medicine Corpses swarmed toward everyone collectively.

Initially, Li Yu had felt that "Undead Medicine Corpses" were very easy to kill, but the following scene proved he was wrong.

As soon as both sides made contact, these gorgeous and exquisite Medicine Corpses, surrounded by fragrant mist and auspicious clouds, turned the place of slaughter and fighting into a fairyland, but their fighting methods were more terrifying than evil ghosts.

First is immortality; no matter how many pieces the shell is cut into, even if it is torn to pieces, it still recovers.

Secondly, it is terrifying poison. The vines and flower whiskers extended from their bodies are not only sharp but also carry strong poison. Once hit, strange flowers and weeds will grow on the wounds, and then crazily swallow the blood and energy in their bodies.

Even more horrifying is that they can control the corpse tide.

Although both the Demon Star Command holders and the reincarnators are official Sequence 8, possessing the power bestowed by the gods.

But after all, they were outnumbered, and after a battle, there were heavy casualties.

Just at this time, one person from each side stood out.

On the reincarnator side, it was a handsome Taoist dressed plainly, with his hair tied with a wooden hairpin, and a phoenix-shaped Taoist pattern on his forehead. He suddenly took out a box of jade talismans, chanted a spell, and the talismans flew up, seeking other reincarnators in the same camp.

At the same time, this Taoist spoke loudly:

"Fellow Daoists, this jade talisman is called 【Guiyuan Defense Talisman】, a defensive talisman treasure in my Vast Heaven Sect, bestowed by elders for self-preservation. Now that fellow Daoists are in trouble, how can I, Wen Wen Feifeng, stand by and watch?"

"Please wear it on your body, come to my side, and form a magic array together. It should be able to exempt you from being slaughtered by these eerie Medicine Corpses."

As the words fell, those who received the jade talismans tested them, and sure enough, just wearing them produced defense, making those Medicine Corpses temporarily helpless.

So they didn't hesitate anymore, gathered together one after another, and formed an array together.

"Fellow Daoist Wen is truly generous. The grade of this talisman treasure is afraid to be not low. In my Earth Mother Sect, I must be a Sequence 7 【Land】 to be qualified to share it."

"It seems Fellow Daoist Wen has quite a status in the sect, able to be bestowed such treasure. After I officially advanced to Sequence 8 【Qi Refiner】, I couldn't even beg for a roughly refined magic sword in the sect."

"Amitabha, thank you, Benefactor Wen, for your protection."

"It's good to form a magic array together. In this kind of Mystic Realm, don't ask for gains, just save your life."

Accompanied by these voices, the reincarnator side all appeared.

Except for the two reckless men of the Red God Sect who died, and the "Martial Apprentice" who was seriously injured and died, there were still eight people left.

Almost at the same time, the person who called himself Zhi Xing on the Demon Star Command side also stood out.

Accompanied by click-clack sounds, scarlet steam surged, and one after another fist-sized ball-shaped strange objects, like monster eyeballs, flew out of his body, as if they had their own navigation, and flew to seek other Demon Star Command holders.

This person clearly wanted to compete with that "Wen Wen Feifeng" of the Haotian Sect, comparing who was more generous, more sincere, and more suitable to be a leader.

"My name is 'Shang Yang,' code name Zhi Xing, under the Sacred Nest, the overlord of the South District of Wanfu City, Sequence 8 【Scholar】 of the Ancient Saint path."

"This thing is called 【Spiritual Energy Death Star】. It can not only stimulate a protective light shield but also fire spiritual energy death rays... it is a unique treasure created by my Sacred Nest."

"I will give everyone one, and you can use it after dripping your blood to claim ownership."

"There is only one condition: please listen to my command for the time being, wipe out these Medicine Corpses, and then kill these hypocritical reincarnators."

"As for the ownership of the Penglai Female Immortal's corpse, everyone will rely on their own abilities in the end."

"Good! Since it's under the Sacred Nest, it is naturally trustworthy."

"Although I am not a person from Wanfu City, I have heard of the Ancient Saint's prestige. Count me in."

Not knowing if it was because Shang Yang was sincere about his identity and name, or because of the temptation of the rare treasure, the two people who had been hiding on the Demon Star Command side also appeared one after another.

Path and sequence were both unknown, and together with the tiger-headed evil monk and the unclean one, they each greedily received a Spiritual Energy Death Star.

Seeing this, Shang Yang was not satisfied.

He frowned, scanned the complex battlefield, and the surging corpse tide couldn't block the perspective light beams emitted by his mechanical eyeballs at all, but he couldn't find the seventh person.

He had to shout sincerely again:

"There is still that commander left. If it's not convenient to come, just show up and shout, and this death star will still be given to you."

"You should not know that every time the Mystic Realm Spirit Realm traversal ends, there will be a judgment... If our performance is extremely poor and this Mystic Realm finally falls into the hands of those hypocritical righteous gods, even if you are not erased after it ends, you will be thrown into a Mystic Realm with a higher mortality rate next time."

"Our Demon Star Command side is already at a disadvantage in numbers, and we can't afford to lose even one."

"If it weren't for this, why would I, Shang Yang, bother to give you such a small benefit."

A set of reasonable and well-founded words, even containing secret rules, were spat out.

Li Yu in the dark!

Remained unmoved.

He was mixed in the corpse tide, while trying his best to absorb these freely given transcendent knowledge, such as "Sequence 7 Land of the Yin Son path," "Sequence 8 Qi Refiner of the Great Luo Golden Immortal path," "Sequence 8 Scholar of the Ancient Saint path," etc. While frowning, he looked at both sides: Wen Wen Feifeng and Shang Yang.

Although he couldn't say why, he always felt something was wrong, so he didn't intend to receive any Spiritual Energy Death Star at all.

The cost of free things is the most expensive; Li Yu knew this well.

However, the strange performance of these two people made him have some ideas.

Especially as he gradually realized that those approximately one hundred "Undead Medicine Corpses" were turning their heads toward the location of the corpse tide he was in from time to time.

Ninety in the palace area, and nine scattered from various places, converging.

Silently, as if to complete the encirclement.

It was just that every time they made a move, they were unintentionally blocked by the group led by Wen Wen Feifeng and Shang Yang.

The latter didn't know that the Undead Medicine Corpses wanted to kill all ten-plus of them; it was just a matter of passing by, so they all did their best to save their lives while trying to complete the side mission.

The battle situation was very anxious.

And Li Yu had already realized in his heart:

"This corpse city should have a harvesting rule. These Undead Medicine Corpses will send out ten from time to time to harvest these mortal Medicine Corpses, watering the so-called spiritual roots in their bodies."

=9+Shu_Ba

"This time I accidentally killed one of them, Number 93 of the Hundred Sons, which caused these movements? Of course, it can't really be blamed on me. If others killed one, they would also lead these out."

"My concealment was originally very effective, until the Demon Star Command in my body received that bit of spiritual root, these shitty things can vaguely sense it...?"

As this thought arose, the alarm bell rang.

He subconsciously wanted to turn and flee, but soon realized.

Spiritual root on his body, disguise failed, if he moved, wouldn't he be exposed even more, and be directly locked and chased by ninety-nine terrifying Medicine Corpses.

No!

Must divert the disaster to the east and share the pressure.

In an instant, Li Yu had an idea in his heart.

He deliberately shouted loudly to both sides while hiding in the corpse tide:

"Brother Shang's kindness, I appreciate it, but the path I cultivate and the great Lord I follow require me not to borrow the power of other foreign gods, and the creations of the Ancient Saint are also among them."

"Foreign objects cannot be borrowed, but some rule knowledge, I can listen."

"This Mystic Realm is also the first time for me, and Brother Shang should be the same, but Brother Shang has a background and backing, so he must have known in advance."

"As long as Brother Shang tells more secrets related to the Demon Star Command and the Mystic Realm, such as what is the use of merit points?"

"I can tell you the weakness of these 【Undead Medicine Corpses】."

"If Brother Wen of the Haotian Sect also intends to do this deal, he can also speak, the price is the same."

"To tell you the truth, the first Medicine Corpse was killed by me, very easily, in one or two breaths."

Accompanied by these voices, the eyes of both sides were locked for the first time on a strange person in the corpse tide, wearing a funny fox mask and carrying a huge yellow-skinned gourd on his back.

All were enlightened, this person was the last Demon Star Command holder.

Seeing him in the corpse tide but being ignored by all the zombies, they all understood that this person must have some special concealment technique.

And hearing these words he spat out, Wen Wen Feifeng's expression moved, and Shang Yang's mechanical eyes flashed with red light.

Both of them had extraordinary backgrounds and possessed strange arts to distinguish lies.

In an instant, they made a judgment: what this person said was true.

Afterward, both were tempted.

There was no doubt that this Demon Star Command holder who hid like a mouse was extorting the two of them.

Fortunately, what he extorted was not some rare treasure, just some rule knowledge that wasn't very secret.

Compared to these irrelevant knowledge, if they could quickly kill these one hundred "Undead Medicine Corpses," the benefits would be much more.

Not only could they win people's hearts, establish more prestige, complete side missions, avoid being erased, get more merit points, but also quickly advance into the palace... with so many wonderful things, it was really hard to resist not being tempted.

"This person killed the first Undead Medicine Corpse and has already completed the side mission, so he won't be erased."

"Even if I don't tell him now, after the mission ends, he will know the same. It's better to take it now in exchange for benefits."

This thought flashed through the minds of Shang Yang and Wen Wen Feifeng.

At the same time, the Undead Medicine Corpses and the corpse tide were rioting, and the momentum of the attack became more fierce.

This change was like providing evidence for "Li Yu," as if the Medicine Corpses were worried about the weakness being leaked, so they were all anxious?

Seeing this, neither of them hesitated anymore, and while each formed two fortress magic arrays to block the attack, they first spat out rule knowledge one by one.
