Chapter 35 Phantom Soul Grass (Part 1)

Following the wilderness all the way to the west, flying for seven days, you can see a huge city.

The city was made of black rocks, and a large amount of black energy lingered around the city. There were heads on the city wall, showing ferocious and painful expressions, flickering on the wall. From time to time, painful and shrill sounds are made, one after another, floating in the air, reaching people's hearts, making people shudder.

In the center of the city is a huge ghost head, with a ferocious image and eyes flashing with green light. Even just looking at it will make your mind sway. Its big mouth is the city gate for entry and exit, and countless ghosts shuttle back and forth in it.

These ghosts are obviously much more advanced than the lonely ghosts on the plains. Their lowest level of cultivation is above the ordinary, not to mention that they all have their minds opened. From time to time, some ghosts would float over, and there would even be people on horseback, in cars, and people lined up. Just like the human world, it was very lively.

There are even more ghost soldiers guarding the city gate. Those ghost soldiers are wearing helmets and armor, and they still hold weapons in their hands. They are just rusty and look useless. Despite this, each one of them was majestic and majestic. They stood under the gate of Guishou and shouted majesticly from time to time: "Hurry up, don't waste time!"

This kind of underworld language is actually not much different from human language, but it is mostly transmitted in a way that shakes the soul, making a deep impression on people. When it falls into the ears of mortals, it is as if someone is talking to you from the bottom of your heart, making you feel deep fear.

At this moment, the two ghost soldiers were shouting at the ghosts entering the city, but they saw a ghost flying from the distance.

When the two ghost soldiers saw him, they knelt down and said, "I've seen General Morosh."

It was Yaksha who had failed to catch Tang Jie before.

The Yaksha ignored the two ghost soldiers and walked straight inside.

There were ghosts coming and going in the city, and everyone bowed their heads when they saw Yaksha. Yaksha walked straight forward until he stopped in front of a mansion. There were two chattering ghosts on duty in front of the mansion. When they saw Yaksha, they bowed and said at the same time: "I have met my young master."

The Yasha Morosh waved his hand: "Get out of here, don't get in the way!"

Already rushed straight into the house.

"Morosh, why are you so angry today?" Another Yaksha flew into the house and blocked Morosh's way.

Moroch said angrily: "Don't mention it, Morozhi. I came back from a tour seven days ago and suddenly smelled the breath of a stranger. I thought I met someone who accidentally fell into death again, but I didn't expect it was just a misunderstanding. I was so happy. , it’s really unlucky.”

The Yasha named Morozhi raised his eyes slightly: "Oh? Is this happening? Could it be that someone really came in?

And you let people run away, right? "

Morosh glared at the other person angrily: "If there is someone, he will definitely not be able to escape from my grasp. It was just a misunderstanding."

After saying that, he left.

Morozhi watched Morosh leave and said to himself: "With Morosh's nose, he will not easily detect errors. Maybe there is a real stranger entering the country. If the stranger really exists, he has concealed it. Morosh's glasses might still be nearby..."

Thinking of this, it suddenly whispered: "Come on."

He saw a cloud of white smoke drifting over, and he knelt down in front of Morozhi, revealing a pale face, but it was the face of a woman, with a face but no body.

This ghost is called Ziying, and it is a ghost made of condensed hostility. It is erratic, strange, and extremely difficult to deal with.

Marozhi said: "Go and leave this place for seven days, so that you can make some inquiries and see if there are any traces of living people."

Ziying opened his mouth and let out a silent response before floating away.

——————————————

By the Yanshui River, Tang Jie was sitting on the huge heart of the deity's body, meditating.

His breathing is long and slow. If you look closely, you will find that his heart is rising and falling slightly with his breathing. In this breath, you can see traces of blood lingering inside the huge body of the deity, entering Tang Jie's body, moving in and out like little red snakes with the breath, but each time it goes in and out, it becomes smaller.

When it finally disappeared, Tang Jie's body became as red and translucent as a prawn, and it did not gradually disappear until it lasted for a long time.

If you look at Tang Jie again, you will find that his cultivation level has obviously improved.

If daily practice is compared to mountain climbing, where every day of practice is like walking up a step, then Tang Jie is climbing dozens or hundreds of steps at a time, and the speed is outrageous.

Of course, the main reason for being able to do it so quickly is that what Tang Jie is absorbing now is his own power, which belongs to the same source. It is like receiving a blood transfusion by himself, without any sequelae at all.

However, the power of this deity will be exhausted sooner or later. Although Tang Jie has tried his best to block it, the return to ruins is the general trend of the world. Without human power to reverse it, Tang Jie can only delay and weaken it, but cannot stop it. Therefore, part of the power of this deity is actually being lost every day. Tang Jie has no choice but to work hard to improve and speed up his absorption.

To increase the speed, more ghosts and more life energy are needed!

Thinking of this, Tang Jie stood up and finally decided to go to the Valley of Resentful Souls again. After the last encounter, Tang Jie did not dare to go there again to avoid encountering Yaksha again. However, his greed and desire for power forced him to take another risk. Of course, the most important thing is that as his strength has grown again these days, Tang Jie is confident that his vitality will not be leaked again this time when he fights against the resentful soul.

After leaving Yanshui River, Tang Jie came to the Valley of Resentful Souls.

Compared to last time, he was stronger, so his actions were much bolder and more direct. He walked straight towards the dark place and didn't stop until the sound of howling was heard. As expected, a resentful spirit emerged from the darkness.

Tang Jie raised his hand to make a seal, and a Qi Sword Talisman was formed on his fingertips. When he touched it casually, the resentful soul let out a shrill scream, and then used the fog escape method to suddenly appear behind Tang Jie and point at his head. Then touch it.

However, Tang Jie was already familiar with this skill. At the same time that the resentful soul disappeared, Tang Jie had already made out the magic seal. A sun disk seal was pointing behind him, just as he bumped into the resentful soul, he poked it with one finger. When the sun shines brightly, the resentful soul melts and disintegrates like snow in the scorching sun. No matter how much it struggles and calls, it's all in vain.

Tang Jie easily disposed of the resentful soul and absorbed its life energy, and Tang Jie continued to move forward. Following the same pattern, several more resentful souls were quickly killed by him. Occasionally, he would encounter multiple resentful souls at the same time. As long as the number did not exceed three, Tang Jie would usually fight one of them. With his current strength, he could deal with no more than three resentful souls at the same time. But if there were more, Tang Jie would have no choice but to run away.

The energy of resentful souls is much higher than that of ordinary wandering souls. Tang Jie was killing and running the Huangquan Dao Jue at the same time, practicing with great joy. But perhaps because his killing angered the resentful soul, Tang Jie quickly realized that something was wrong.

The surrounding resentful souls gathered more and more, gradually changing from appearing alone to appearing in groups of two or three, and then often roaring in groups, with three, five or even more than ten appearing.

Tang Jie knew that these were resentful souls and were already alert. Although they had low intelligence, they were not completely incapable of thinking. They had obviously noticed that someone was hunting them. It was just because Tang Jie concealed their vitality that they were difficult to detect, but they gathered because of this. Self-preservation.

Faced with this situation, Tang Jie also knew that today's battle was over and it was not appropriate to take action and could only return.

Just as he was about to leave, a strange fragrance suddenly wafted over.

The fragrance was astonishing. Tang Jie only took a sip and felt a flower blooming in front of his eyes. He found that he was no longer in the underworld, but in a colorful garden. All around were blooming rare elixirs. The divine grass has even a clone standing aside, reuniting with itself, achieving the divine body of the great avenue, and creating a boundless foundation.

This was a scene that every man dreamed of. At that moment, even Tang Jie was in a trance.

But then he woke up and realized that he was probably in an illusion.

After biting his tongue, he realized that he had not woken up. Tang Jie was not in a hurry. After thinking about it, he activated the Four Nine Mantras and shouted: "Evil monsters, retreat quickly!"

Tang Jie's eyes suddenly dispersed, and all the magnificent scenery disappeared. Tang Jie found that he was still on the wasteland of the underworld, and a resentful soul was touching his neck. Tang Jie raised a shield of Gang Qi with his hand and used the simplest and crudest method to directly kill the resentful soul, while a cold sweat broke out in his heart.

Not to mention how powerful illusions are, real illusions can make people addicted to them, making it difficult to extricate themselves, and even more difficult to break, but they are usually close to each other for thousands of years, that is, no matter how many years they are in the illusion, the outside world is only a moment. The illusion in Tang Tribulation is just the opposite. It is not difficult to break, but its time flow is real. In other words, how long you stay in the illusion is how long it is in reality. This kind of illusion exists alone for nothing, but when paired with dangerous ghosts, it immediately becomes terrifying.

If Tang Jie had escaped later, he would have had his neck wiped by the resentful soul. With Tang Jie's current strength, if he really touched it, even if he didn't die, he would have lost half of his breath - something like the resentful soul, It's easy to kill, and it's very easy to be killed by it, which is equivalent to a typical existence with high attack and weak defense.

If I'm not mistaken, this illusion should be related to the strange fragrance just now.

What is it that has such a strange fragrance that can make people enter a dreamland? Tang Jie has begun to think about everything about this underworld. Huangquan Wendaojue is not only a practice method, but also a guide to the underworld. I dare not say that all the knowledge of the underworld is included in it, but it does contain a lot of relevant content, so that humans will not be blinded after entering.

Fortunately, there is indeed a record of this strange fragrance in Tao Jue.

"Illusion Soul Grass?" Tang Jie's eyes lit up.

Although the underworld is desolate, it is mainly for the positive world, but it does not mean that there are really no good things. This Huanhun Grass is an extremely rare and rare resource. As the name suggests, this thing is born with the ability to influence the soul and create illusions. The most rare thing is the ability to real time. The phantom soul incense made with it as the main raw material can be said to be an invincible treasure that can be used to kill enemies and steal goods. No matter who is exposed to this incense, they will fall into an illusion. Since time in the illusion is the same as real time, a moment's hesitation may be eternal death.

Therefore, this phantom soul incense is also a very troublesome treasure. Fortunately, the main raw material of this thing, phantom soul grass, is rare, even in the underworld. It is said that it blooms only once every hundred years, and the flowers bloom for three days. The fragrance is so fragrant that it can lead people into a dreamland, and even attract ghosts to protect them. If you want to get the Phantom Soul Grass, you need to pick it at this time. If you miss the opportunity, you will have to wait another hundred years.

Tang Jie didn't know how long the Phantom Soul Grass had been in bloom, but he knew very well that if he missed this opportunity, he might not have another chance in the future.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and secretly informed the mistress to come and help him. At the same time, he held his breath and walked forward.
