Half a mile away, Yu Ci could hear the demon's breathing like a bellows, accompanied by a strong cough. Judging from the photo, the demon's originally gray-black skin had a layer of... Unhealthy cyan color seems to be seriously ill.

Monsters and serious illness?

These two seemingly incompatible elements appear quite absurd when they come together. But in fact, Yu Ci discovered this situation a few days ago.

He found that many of the monsters that rushed out from the "entrance" seemed not adapted to the climate of the Sky Rift Valley. Those powerful monsters were okay. After being languid for a period of time, they slowly recovered. But those with less strength often have a great influence. The one above the head is just a particularly intense performance.

During the mind-stopping meditation, didn’t Yu Zhou, the Taoist priest, say that the environment in the Blood Hell Ghost Mansion is very different from this world. The normal air that people breathe is probably deadly poisonous gas to those monsters.

Yu Ci has always suspected that this wave of monsters is coming fiercely, but they are not going up. They are willing to stay in this relatively desolate place. Except for the circle of species that are incompatible with it in the Sky Rift Valley, it is very likely that they are from the Underdark Area. The environment exceeds their endurance limit. For example, the one on the top of the head is relatively high up, and the reaction is more severe.

Of course, this is God's help for Yu Ci now. He is now ready to go up with his sword and clear the roadblock.

However, just when he was about to take action, his body that was leaning up suddenly retracted and slid down some distance. Because on the Illuminating Picture, a new situation appeared.

There was a dark shadow crawling over from the side of the panting demon.

Is it a new monster?

This was Yu Ci's first thought.

What appeared in the photo of the gods was a very weird and ugly guy. Its body shape is very close to that of an ordinary person, and its torso and limbs are the same as those of an ordinary person. However, half of its head seems to have been swept away by a sharp weapon. Only the lower gums and chin remain. At first glance, it looks more like a human body. Corpses crawling on the cliff.

Uh, corpse?

A chill suddenly ran down Yu Ci's spine. He noticed that this guy was clearly covered with a layer of cloth. Although it was in tatters and in disgrace, it was definitely not what a demon should have. Yu Ci had been looking at the Illuminating Picture for so many days. It is very clear that every demon here is completely naked and intact!

Although demons also have wisdom, and it is not ruled out that there are some special guys who dress like humans, follow etiquette, etc., but at this time, in the picture of the gods, Yu Ci did not see any signs of this. , On the contrary, what he saw was just some increasingly familiar features of the monster.

The first thing is the layer of tattered clothes. Although the damage is very serious, Yu Ci still feels very familiar. And judging from the shape, it is not an ordinary piece of clothing, but more like... a monk?

Then there is the remaining half of the chin. It did look disgusting, but the tapering and narrowing shape clearly made a very deep impression on Yu Ci. Combined with this, even the size of this monster looks very familiar!

Yu Ci looked at the monster a few more times, and suddenly realized something. He raised the Pure Yang Talisman Sword in his hand, made two gestures in the air, and then looked at the divine picture, but an idea flashed in his mind, that answer It's already on my lips.

At this moment, the half-headed monster had entered the monster's sensing range, and did not deliberately hide its sound. Even though the monster was in an extremely bad state, it was alert, turned around, and exposed itself to the monster with ill intentions. Fangs.

The monster started at this moment and rushed towards the demon, but the speed was mediocre. Even the demon in pain had to be stronger than it. So in the blink of an eye, it was time to change positions of attack and defense. The demon regained his strength and almost knocked the monster to the bottom of the cliff with just one palm of his thick claws. The monster grabbed the demon's forelimbs with its backhand and fought with it.

This kind of fight has no technical content at all, but it is the most common method used by demons, especially low-level demons. For a while, the fight was in full swing. Although the disease demon was breathing like a bellows, it still had the upper hand. It caught a chance and bit down on the monster's neck.

At this moment, the monster's throat cavity was completely exposed to the air because half of its head was missing. It suddenly shot out a stream of black air and hit the monster's head in the face. Then it exploded with a roar and turned into a puff of air. The black flames completely enveloped the demon's head.

The demon's screams could be heard clearly even from Yu Ci's side. In the Illuminating Picture, the demon is struggling even harder, while the half-headed monster is clinging to its body and will not let go no matter how hard it is beaten. In just a moment, the tattered monk's robe was torn to pieces, and a lot of skin and flesh was torn off, but the demon's struggle was obviously weak.

Yu Ci watched without blinking. At this time, the black flames on the demon's head and face slowly weakened, but instead of extinguishing normally, they seeped in along the acupoints such as the ears, eyes, mouth, etc. of the demon's head!

The demon's struggle completely disappeared, leaving only the body twitching intermittently. At this moment, another stream of black air flowed out from the throat of the monster holding it, which had turned black. The color was lighter than before, but when it was meandering and swimming, it was vivid, like a The black-skinned snake swam along the connected limbs of both sides and wormed its way into the monster's open mouth.

At this moment, all the sounds of the half-headed monster disappeared. The arm that had previously held the demon like an iron hoop also hung softly. The demon's body fell down, but it could not fall more than a few feet. Suddenly, there was a strange cry, and he reached out to grab a piece of the monster. The rock stopped its decline. How could it still look like it was dying at this time?

Yu Ci clenched the Pure Yang Talisman Sword in his hand and stepped back quietly. The fact above his head was so strange that he couldn't help but be careful.

He looked at the Illumination Picture again, and saw that the half-headed monster in the picture had truly turned into a pile of dead flesh, hanging on the protrusion of the cliff, without any breath of life. However, the demon who was penetrated by the black fire and the black snake successively had his eyes shining brightly. He walked a few steps on the cliff, stretched his arms and swung his legs, and then shook his head again, still rushing. He sighed in his breath, seeming very dissatisfied.

Yu Ci has never seen such a very high-end human expression on a similar low-level demon.

Then, the demon figured out its direction and walked a downward diagonal line, heading north.

Yu Ci had been observing through the magic picture, watching the demon go seven or eight miles away, and then he turned over and came to the monster with a half-headed head.

Monk, body shape, pointed chin! In addition to the observed information, Yu Ci also deliberately used his sword to open up the monster's chest muscles. The exposed left ribs clearly had some old cracks. In addition, there were still some residues in the thick putrid smell that hit his nose. With a slightly familiar atmosphere, all of this made Yu Ci's guess more and more clear:

Venomous Snake Monk... No, he should be called Zhengde!

To be more precise, it was the body of Monk Zhengde, who had half of his head cut off by Yu Ci with a sword a few months ago.

Yu Ci thought that she should be more surprised.

According to common sense, the body of Monk Zhengde should have been in a high degree of decay. Of course, in the special environment of the Sky Rift Valley, the more likely fate is to be eaten by bloodthirsty raptors and beasts, even the bones and dregs. Nothing left.

But now, such a "character" appeared in front of him in such an image, and even staged a hand-to-hand drama with the demon - thanks to Yu Ci's many days of experience in the Sky Rift Valley, his endurance is increasing day by day, and his face is... In this case, the brain's operation becomes faster and faster.

If the time were pushed forward a few days, Yu Ci might think that this was a special kind of parasitic monster in the Sky Rift Valley, which could change its host at any time and acquire a new body. In fact, a long time ago, when he was in the Shuangxian Sect, Yu Ci also saw the Purple Thunder Immortal raising similar monsters, and even used the immortal boy as his attendant to test it twice in order to study some kind of immortality method, but then nothing happened. .

This kind of monster is not uncommon in the world of cultivation, so it makes sense to put it here.

However, after experiencing something, Yu Ci felt that there was another possibility that was more realistic.

A few days ago, when he climbed to the top of the valley, he happened to encounter the conflict between Old Monster Tudu and Wanling Sect, Xuanyin Sect, and Purifying Water Altar. Later, he saw the strange conversation through the divine picture. Under the hint of Ming Lan, the immortal master of the Xuanyin Sect, the abbot of the Purifying Water Temple, the unknown monk Yi Xin, suddenly possessed his soul in his disciple, preached and followed the instructions, and put on a good show.

Compared with the inexplicable relationship between the two parties, Monk Isin's strange and strange methods obviously left a more intuitive and profound impression on Yu Ci.

At least he gained an understanding from this: the method of water purification altar is very evil...

With such a scene as the background, Yu Ci can accept whatever tricks Monk Zhengde uses now.

In addition, there is another thing that he is more concerned about, that is, the black gas flowing out of Zhengde's throat for the second time looks like a poisonous snake. And according to the information he had gathered in Cliff City, weren't the monks who were successful in cultivating at the Water Purification Altar all similar to poisonous snakes?

Perhaps it was a "body grabbing" just now?

Yu Ci glanced at Zhengde for the last time, then turned his attention to the Illuminating Picture. He must pay attention to it, because if Monk Zhengde is still alive, his murder of Lu Quan and Xu Laoer that day will inevitably be revealed, which will cause him a lot of trouble.

He wanted to trace the past, but as soon as he took a step, he was a little embarrassed. Now his body has really reached its limit, and every muscle and bone is groaning. If he were to track him in this state, he might lose his footing and fall into the abyss before he reaches the edge, and be laughed at by others.

In a moment of hesitation, the demon who was suspected to have been taken away from him had already penetrated into the blurry scene. It was the territory of a pill-returning demon. Without the blessing of the "three breaths in one breath" technique, Yu Ci had nothing to do about it. With his current body, how can he have the strength to use "three breaths in one breath"?

While I was frowning, the blurry image on the Illumination Picture actually began to move, and the direction was exactly towards the old monster Tu Du. It must be that this powerful monster couldn't bear the delicious taste of the soul of the Huandan monk. , ready to hunt. At this moment, the blurred area was shifted, and the original place was clearly revealed. Yu Ci focused on the target at a glance, but saw that the guy was hiding in a relatively hidden rock crevice, curled up and lying down, like Yes...

Asleep?
