Volume 6: Wangchuan Chapter 23: Nine Netherworld Miasma
The snake monster let out a sharp wail, and its huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Without any effort, the source demon that had troubled the Luo family for many months was wiped out.
"What is that?" Just as the snake demon fell, Lu Qingshan's eyes suddenly darkened.
In the body of the snake monster, he caught a glimpse of fleeting jade light.
call out!
A thread of sword energy suddenly shot out and swept through the body of the snake monster.
A white poisonous insect, as long as a finger, was lifted up by the sword energy and fell into Lu Qingshan's palm.
Lu Qingshan stared at the jade poisonous insect that kept squirming in his palm.
"The Heart Demon Gu." Lu Qingshan's voice sank. The moment he saw this thing, he understood the principle behind .
"The bodies of these leading source monsters are all filled with the Heart Demon Gu planted by the underworld. Once the host dies, the news will be transmitted to the mother Gu immediately. And the holder of the mother Gu, that is, the monk of the underworld, can immediately drive a new batch of source monsters to make a comeback." Lu Qingshan said
"But why?" Ji Chuan frowned , unable to understand.
The underworld even used the Heart Demon Gu. Was it just to drive these low-grade source monsters to invade Burial Ridge?
Even the purpose revealed by these source monsters at present seems to be just targeting these source stone orchid veins, and there is no question of invading the Burial Ridge.
Unreasonable, extremely unreasonable.
According to what they thought, the strange actions of the underworld this time should be aimed at their Sword Sect.
But with the current level of chaos, how could it possibly have any impact on the Sword Sect?
What exactly is the underworld planning?
Lu Qingshan also frowned and fell into deep thought.
"Brother, please check whether there is any demonic energy in the Yellow Spring Death Qi." Looking at the Yellow Spring Death Qi that was rolling up in the mine and had not yet calmed down, Lu Qingshan suddenly had another idea in his mind.
Ji Chuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he understood the meaning of Lu Qingshan's words.
Green Waist wandered out and wandered in the rolling death energy of the underworld for some time.
After a moment, Green Waist escaped.
Above the silver-white sword body, there is a layer of thick yellow light, which is a sign of the death energy of the underworld.
But in that thick yellow light, there was also an lingering black light.
"Demonic energy!" Ji Chuan's heart was shocked.
Lu Qingshan nodded, his guess was confirmed, "This is the Nine Nether Miasma, a drug made by the demons to confuse the minds of monsters, it is invisible and colorless, and can be dissolved in all material things.
Once a spiritual creature absorbs the Nine Netherworld Miasma, its mind will be affected by it, and it will gradually lose its rationality and eventually turn into a wild beast that only knows how to kill.
The influence of the Nine Netherworld Miasma on the mind is an extremely long, subtle, silent process and it does not happen overnight.
Moreover, the stronger the soul is, the lower the effectiveness of the Nine Netherworld Miasma will be.
Therefore, the Nine Netherworld Miasma is generally of little use to human cultivators and is only suitable for monsters with weak souls.
The underworld melted the Nine Netherworld Miasma into the Source Stone Orchid. After invading the Source Stone Orchid mine, these source monsters had to absorb and swallow the Yellow Spring Death Qi contained in the Source Stone Orchid in order to maintain their own status, thereby refining the Nine Netherworld Miasma into their bodies.
Under the influence of the Nine Netherworld Miasma, he became a crazy source demon who lost his mind and only knew how to kill. "
"Junior brother, how did you know about the existence of the Nine Nether Miasma?" Ji Chuan's eyes flickered with a hint of surprise.
He was surprised at the existence of the Nine Netherworld Miasma, and also surprised at Lu Qingshan's eloquent talk.
The Nine Netherworld Miasma, as a Taoist monk, he had a broad vision and had never heard of it before.
However, he never expected that Lu Qingshan, who came from a humble background, could know so much, and he subconsciously felt a little surprised.
"I was born in Zhenjiang, Qingzhou , and personally experienced the corpse puppet rebellion led by the underworld. Since then, I joined Zhishou Tower and participated in many operations against the underworld. So I have a deeper understanding of the underworld's methods." Lu Qingshan found a suitable reason.
Hatred is the driving force. Those who understand the underworld best will always hate it the most. This is reasonable.
But the real reason is because of the prophet.
In a version after Nine Days, the underworld once used the Nine Nether Miasma to cause a tide of beasts to attack the city, triggering a major plot quest.
Although that story mission was not part of the main storyline, it caused a sensation due to its huge scale and rich rewards.
After the mission was over, a player reviewed the entire process and gave a detailed introduction to the Nine Nether Mist, which Lu Qingshan remembered.
So now when he saw a similar scene, he reacted immediately.
"As they absorb more and more Nine Netherworld Miasma, these source monsters will become more and more crazy. Now they just kill humans when they see them..." Lu Qingshan murmured, "Later, they will even enter a completely bloodthirsty state, looking for human scents and actively looking for and attacking humans to satisfy their desire for slaughter."
Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan looked at each other and both thought of a terrible possibility.
"How long will it take for the Nine Netherworld Miasma to drive these monsters into a bloodthirsty state?" Ji Chuan swallowed and said in a deep voice.
"Two to three months, no later than three months. If a monster absorbs the Nine Nether Miasma into its body and does not fall into a bloodthirsty state for more than three months, it means that its soul realm is immune to the erosion of the Nine Nether Miasma." Lu Qingshan said slowly.
——The source demon invaded the source stone orchid mine in Zangling almost three months ago.
“If these monsters erupt, the entire Burial Ridge will be devastated.” Ji Chuan’s face was as gloomy as water.
At this time in the Burial Ridge, hundreds of source stone orchid veins were occupied by source monsters, and the number of source monsters can be imagined.
You must know that there are countless mortals and low-level cultivators in the Burial Ridge. These people are just lambs to be slaughtered in front of the Source Demon.
Although Lu Qingshan and Ji Chuan are strong, there are only two of them after all. Once the source monsters come out in full force, how can they deal with it?
"I will immediately send a message back to the sect and ask them to send people to support us," Ji Chuan decided. "Then, we will go back to the Qiu family first and inform them of the news. Let the head of the Qiu family quickly inform the major families in Zangling of the bad news so that they can prepare to welcome the source monster to kill its way out of the mine."
Lu Qingshan nodded.
The Source Monster has stayed in the mine for three consecutive months and has been dormant for a long time. This has already made the major families in Zangling lose their vigilance. They assume that as long as they retreat from the Source Shilan mine, the Source Monster will not cause them trouble.
In this state, if the source demon erupts, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Knowing the seriousness of the matter, the two of them immediately set off and prepared to return to the Qiu family.
However, there has always been a shadow in Lu Qingshan's heart.
This matter is definitely not that simple.
1. How does the underworld make these source monsters leave their place of origin?
Second, even if the source monsters rioted and caused great suffering to the people of Zangling Ridge, it would be a tragedy, but for the Sword Sect, the biggest loss would be the Qiu family.
And it is obvious that this time the underworld is targeting the Sword Sect.
Therefore, there must be a deeper conspiracy behind this matter.
Lu Qingshan felt heavy-hearted, but there was nothing he could do but to respond as the enemy attacked.
We need to take things one step at a time and resolve the hidden danger of the source demon rebellion first!
