Chapter 139 They ascended

The settlement in the inner city area is coming to an end, and Qingjingzi is obviously a little overwhelmed.

A honeycomb-shaped arm magic weapon was suspended in the air in the inner city. Its surface was covered with dense holes, releasing thick smoke.

To ordinary monks, smoke and dust are metal toxins that can corrode the body. They penetrate into flesh and blood and bones with breathing through the mouth and nose. In just half a day, the foundation of the Taoist path will be completely destroyed.

This is not the case for weapon repairers. They cannot recover from injuries on their own. Metal toxins can stimulate the healing of injuries and can also enhance spells.

Li Mo immediately noticed Qingjingzi's behavior.

He was in the practice field where the inner disciples of the Heart Beast Sect were competing, and he stopped the cycle of heaven without hesitation, waiting for the destruction of the inner city.

Li Mo observed the instrument repair absorbing metal smoke and dust.

In a sense, the cultivation of weapons has been separated from the essence of flesh and blood.

Li Mo was sure that after the weapon cultivator was eroded by the death disease, he would not turn into a strange beast, but another indescribable monster.

The Zi Qi Sect's research on fatal diseases is far more in-depth than the Heart Beast Sect.

Li Mo thought of the Iron Cauldron Secret Realm, which was filled with corpses of giant monsters.

I am afraid that the Ziqi Sect has been paying attention to the Heart Beast Sect a long time ago, but they only valued the value of the beasts.

Li Mo put away the animal skin magic weapon and concealed himself through a leak-free body.

The number of inner beasts has been reduced to about ten, and the disciples of the Ziqi Sect have an absolute advantage and can crush them unilaterally.

Once there are many monsters and monks in the inner sect, and Li Mo fishes in troubled waters, no Ziqi sect disciple will care.

It's like saving their lives in disguise.

Li Mo traveled throughout the inner city, looking for clues to the drastic changes in the world, and found that the details revealed in the illusion were horrifying.

Exposed bones, strange and incomprehensible pictures of birds and animals, decorations about the sacrifice of the dead, and the twisted word "ascension".

It seems that even after the monks of the Heart Beast Sect were reduced to beast-skinmen, the sect still maintained order.

The ones maintaining order were none other than the inner sect beasts transformed into spiritual beasts. They should have been intelligent at that time.

They fell into the madness of worshiping the dead and welcoming the arrival of the ascended ancestor Tian Chenzi.

The last sacrifice for the dead was the main reason for the complete fall of the inner city, and it was the straw that cut off the inheritance of the Heart Beast Sect.

After Li Mo came into contact with the corpses of various inner beasts, more and more memories of ancient techniques emerged from the Book of Creation.

The "Elixir Cauldron's Wonderful Method of Transforming Qi" in the Inner Alchemy Room, the "Xuanlian Sanqing Yiqi" in the Neiqifang, the "Four Refining Dapeng's Wings Sutra" in the Law Enforcement Hall...

Although the ancient techniques are not suitable for the current system of cultivating immortals, Tao Zhong did not dislike it at all and still accepted them all.

It should be that Taoism and Dharma are interlinked, and ancient exercises also have merit.

However, what puzzles Li Mo is that some of the inner beasts from ancient times to the present involve monks from the Heart Beast Sect who are not in high positions.

Although Wu Chenzhi is the chief alchemist, his cultivation level is only in the middle stage of foundation building.

Li Mo remembered that there were seven elders in charge of the outer sect of the Heart Beast Sect alone.

Not to mention, the peak master in charge of the inheritance of the inner sect, as well as his direct disciples, as well as the inner sect elders, headmasters, etc.

After their spiritual beasts turned into strange beasts, they all seemed to have disappeared after the drastic changes in the world. None of them survived in the inner city to this day.

Bang bang bang...

Li Mo's thoughts were interrupted, and the ground in Rongzhen began to shake.

Qingjingzi no longer cared about the risk of the fatal disease worsening, and took action to deal with the remaining inner sect beasts by herself, her mouth full of unexplained murmurs.

Disciples of the Ziqi sect are inevitably afraid, but with Qingjingzi's cultivation, it is impossible for them to escape from the inner city.

A few days later, when the last strange beast from the inner gate of the dining hall died, the thick fog that had shrouded the town for thousands of years began to slowly dissipate.

The inner city was revealed to the monks.

Each building retains the ancient Taoist style, with green tiles and white walls. There are traces of cranes in the pond, yin and yang fish can be seen everywhere, and there is a dead bamboo forest in the corner.

However, on the inner side of the building, you can see the weathered bones of the beast-skin men.

It can be seen from this that the sacrifice of the dead is by no means an unfounded fantasy of the inner sect's monsters, but a real disaster that happened thousands of years ago.

Li Mo glanced at Qingjingzi unintentionally, and his mood was disturbed.

Qingjingzi stood in the air, and his condition became even more unstable, especially his exposed back, which was covered with dense insects.

The end of the worm is also connected to two people, namely Han Cai and Shi Ji.

They were tortured until they were reduced to human form, and the insects seemed to be able to continuously pass on the alienation of Qingjingzi's body to Han Cai and the two of them.

Han Cai's arms were covered with deformities, and his cultivation had returned to the late Weak Crown stage. Blood mixed with internal organs fragments occasionally gushed out of his mouth and nose.

Relatively speaking, Shi Ji was slightly better, with twice as many arms as Han Cai, but there seemed to be living things in his swollen head.

"Master Han?!!"

Li Mo's face was gloomy. What was going on? It was obvious that both the beasts and puppets had escaped from their shells, and most of the monks had been saved.

"wrong……"

He suddenly realized that Qingjingzi was probably the inner city brought by Tian Changwen, leading the latter to mistakenly believe that the top-quality spiritual stones were there.

Since he took such a risk, he must have done it for the sake of the beasts.

But both Han Cai and Han Cai have fallen into the hands of Qing Jingzi, which means that the plan is likely to fail, and the entire Rong Town will be destroyed as a result.

Li Mo kept thinking in his mind whether there was any way to save Han Cai's life.

Fortunately, the danger is not great for the time being. As puppet cultivators in the false alchemy stage, the value of their lives is obviously far greater than that of their corpses.

The area shrouded in thick fog shrank to about a hundred meters, and the inner city was about to be seen at a glance, and the atmosphere suddenly became anxious.

Li Mo's pupils dilated and his heart beat faster.

The tattooed beasts gave out warnings one after another, as if they had an instinctive fear of what was about to appear, making them want to stay away from the melting town.

While Li Mo comforted the tattooed beast, his eyes focused on the center of the inner city.

The moment the thick fog dissipated, Qingjingzi sprayed out a stream of colorful smoke from his mouth, intending to cover the inner city area from being seen by the outer disciples.

Dong dong dong...

Qingjingzi's spellcasting was interrupted, and all the monks covered their chests.

The sounds of birds and animals sounded, as if you were in the depths of the jungle, and the sunset immediately opened a curtain on the horizon.

Li Mo narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but secretly thought: "What's going on with Tian Chenzi, and what's going on with the sacrifice ceremony?"

The smile on Qingjingzi's lips faded, and her expression was filled with deep doubts.

Apparently he had realized that the center of the inner city had nothing to do with the top-quality spiritual stones, and the spiritual power leaked from him suddenly rioted.

The sound of birds and beasts suddenly stopped.

As the sun set, the monks couldn't help but express indescribable astonishment. They really couldn't understand the things revealed in the mist.

The stone platform for worshiping the dead comes into view, covering an area of ​​almost one thousand meters.

In the center of the stone platform is a five to six hundred meter tall statue of Tianchenzi, with a lifelike appearance and his right hand pointing to the top of his head.

Surrounding the stone platform are a large number of futons, with hundreds of statues of disciples of the Heart Beast Sect sitting there.

The statues are motionless, they are all core monks of the Heart Beast Sect. Thousands of years have passed, and it seems that no trace of time has been left.

Compared with the statues of Tianchenzi, their appearance is animalistic, and their meditation postures are also very nondescript.

Li Mo recalled the death ceremony held in Heifengling, and the stone platform decorations were the same.

"Wow wow wow..."

The baby's cry came from inside the statue of Tian Chenzi.

Qingjingzi swooped towards the platform without hesitation, and the other Ziqi sect disciples couldn't help but look at each other and chose to follow behind him.

Li Mo mingled in the crowd and realized that the drastic change in the world was more than just a beast cultivator turning into a beast-skin man.

"Sacrifice the dead and ascend..."

Qingjingzi went straight to the statue of Tianchenzi, while Li Mo stayed at the edge of the altar.

Li Mo looked at the statues, and memories came out of the Creation Book one after another, indicating that the statues were at least direct disciples.

"Huh?"

He noticed something unbelievable. The statues were not carved the other day, but were actually made of hollow corpses.

Only a thin layer of human skin remained on the corpse, and there was an obscure crack on the back of the head.

Li Mo couldn't help but gesture. The crack was just big enough for a child of about five years old to get through. There were also traces of arms opening the crack on the surface.

Inside the corpse, he also found the remains of animal feathers and bird feathers.
