You are just making up the exercises, my disciple, have you really mastered them?

Chapter 71 The body that was sucked dry (please order)

Hiccup!

Xue Wuxin made a sound inside his body, as if he was full and burped.

 The pale face showed blood.

Spider-like blood threads were withdrawn from each corpse, and a yin energy filled his body. His face, which was originally bloody, became pale and colorless again.

"The essence and blood of the people in the wilderness are too mixed and need to be refined and purified. However, after absorbing the essence and blood of so many people, the injuries can be restored to 50% or 60%."

 Xue Wuxin muttered to himself.

 He raised his head and looked beyond the endless mountains, his eyes showing excitement.

The barren land must be the place where one can rise.

“Find a place to refine the essence and blood to recover from the injury. Only when the strength is restored can the blood sacrifice be performed to purify the essence and blood for use in cultivation.

 “Haha, just wait for my heartless revenge!”

 Xue Wuxin was in a great mood, soared into the sky and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Only on the hillside, more than a hundred shriveled corpses were left, with a vague look of horror on their shriveled faces.

The craze of searching for masters swept across the Qi State. Of course, it was not just the Minister of War and his entourage who came to Wuwu Mountain to search for masters.

The Endless Mountains are full of dangers. Seekers come in groups, leading guards or recruiting experts to enter the Endless Mountains together.

On this day, a team looking for an expert came to the foot of the hillside.

 “Go up and have a rest, this expert doesn’t even know where he is hiding.”

“Xu Yan, why is this guy so lucky? He can find an expert.”

"Don't be discouraged. Is it easy to find an expert? Xu Yan has been looking for him for many years, and he has been deceived."

 A group of dandies, protected by guards, began to climb the hillside.

"ah!"

 Suddenly, a scream came.

 “What did you do? You scared me!”

 “What happened? You are a top-notch expert, but you are so timid? Ah…”

Screams of surprise sounded one after another.

Everyone looked at the scene on the hillside and suddenly felt cold all over their bodies and their scalps were numb.

More than a hundred corpses were lying on the hillside, filled with a faint gloomy atmosphere. Each corpse was shriveled, as if the blood had been sucked out.

 The withered face still retains the look of fear before death.

 “This is…this is…”

 Someone identified the body.

 “The eldest son of the Minister of War!”

 “The second son of the Minister of Rites!”

"besides…"

Fear filled the hearts of everyone, and they looked around subconsciously, as if there were evil spirits that could choose to bite people at any time.

 “How did you die?”

The brave experts came forward to look at the corpse. The more they looked at it, the more frightened they became, and the more they looked at it, the more frightened they became.

 “The corpse shriveled up and turned directly into a mummy…”

 It’s so weird!

How long has it been since the Master of the Ministry of War and others entered the Endless Mountains?

 Even if you die, you cannot become a mummy.

Moreover, the appearance of everyone's death was extremely terrifying, as if they had seen something terrifying before they died.

"This is the King of Yi Dao, a famous master in the capital. He is also dead!"

 Some people identified the corpse one after another, including some well-known experts.

 There were more than a hundred people, many masters, and well-equipped with crossbows and other equipment, but they all died on the hillside.

 There were no signs of a fight at the scene.

 As if everyone died at the same time!

 The corpse turned directly into a mummy!

Such a strange scene shocked everyone and they no longer wanted to continue looking for the master.

 “Go quickly, go back quickly!”

 “The endless mountains are too dangerous!”

A group of people did not dare to stay and went down the mountain one after another.

“Take the body of the Minister of War, the Minister of War, and several of their bodies, and bring them back to the capital.”

"Yes, bring their bodies back to the capital. Their deaths are too strange. We must investigate. Isn't Xu Yan a warrior? Maybe he can see the clues."

 Someone suggested.

The rest of the people thought it was reasonable and could get a reward for taking the body back.

As for whether they would be considered responsible for the murder, it was impossible. The corpses were in a strange death state. Moreover, with their strength, they simply could not kill the army of the Minister of War.

 …

 In the capital, Xu Yan has achieved great success in the Qi and Blood Realm, and has clearly understood the innate realm skills, and he is in a good mood.

 The Emperor of Qi sent people to congratulate him and wanted to hold a banquet to congratulate him on his great progress in martial arts, but Xu Yan refused.

 After staying in the capital for a few days, Xu Yan set off back to Donghe County.

Not long after Xu Yan left the capital, news spread among the officials that the Minister of War, the Minister of War, and others all died mysteriously in Wuwu Mountain.

 The body was brought back.

 Emperor Qi even came to check it out in person.

The shriveled corpse and the remaining fear on his face were very strange.

“Master Guo, please let your grandson come back and take a look.”

“Yes, Mr. Guo, this is so weird!”

All the ministers were panicked.

 My sons are all out looking for masters.

 Moreover, most of them go to the endless mountains.

 The Minister of War and the Minister of Rites were all depressed and suffered a great blow.

Guo Rongshan also realized that this matter was too weird. Is there any monster in the Endless Mountain?

 He immediately uploaded the message to Xu Yan.

 Directly used the newly established Fei Ying Chuan Shu.

This is after he was promoted to the King of Qi, the Great Pavilion Elder, and the Prince's Master, he dispatched several trained flying eagles from the Qi State Flying Eagle Division, specifically for the purpose of communicating between Donghe County and the capital. To ensure smooth and fast communication between Donghe County and Prince Qi’s Mansion.

Xu Yan rushed back to Donghe County in a hurry. As soon as he got home to have dinner with his parents and give them some guidance on their cultivation, he received a letter from his grandfather.

 A shriveled corpse?

 The death is strange?

 I was suddenly curious.

“I once read a legend in an ancient story book. There is a monster called a zombie that likes to devour human blood. Could it be that they encountered a zombie?”

 Xu Yan suddenly became interested when he thought about it.

“It is rumored that the corpse beast is violent, likes to eat human blood, and is extremely powerful. Now that I have reached the Qi and Blood Realm, my strength is not what it used to be. I am looking for someone to practice my skills with.

“If it’s really a zombie, you can give it a try.”

Xu Yan showed excitement and rushed to the capital immediately.

He has only seen the description of the corpse beast in an ancient book, and it has not been circulated among the people. There are probably not many people who know this legendary monster.



 Xu Yan, who left not long ago, is back again.

 “Where is the body? Where is it?”

 He immediately came to the morgue.

  Saw the shriveled corpses.

 The Emperor of Qi and other ministers all came.

Xu Yan looked at the corpse and frowned. Judging from the corpse, it seemed that it had been drained of blood and died, and it had turned into a mummy.

 There is still a faint yin energy left in the corpse.

  However, unlike the description of being killed by a zombie as described in the storybook, no bite wounds were seen.

 According to the script, the wound was on the neck.

Furthermore, the person injured by the corpse beast will not directly turn into a shriveled corpse, but will turn into a blue-black color containing corpse poison.

 However, these corpses are not green or black, nor do they contain corpse poison.

 Completely turned into a mummy.

It's like it's been exposed to the sun and it hasn't rotted away after such a long time.

 “How about it, do you see the problem?”

Qi Huang asked.

Xu Yan continued to look at the corpse, shook his head and said: "I originally thought it was killed by the legendary corpse beast, but just looking at the corpse, it doesn't look like it was done by the corpse beast."

 “What is a corpse?”

 The Emperor of Qi and his ministers looked at each other in shock. They had never heard of such a monster as a zombie.

“A kind of monster that likes to eat human blood and is extremely cruel.”

 Xu Yan gave a brief explanation.

Emperor Qi and his ministers felt their scalps numb when they heard this. Is there such a terrifying monster in this world?

“Mr. Xu, how do you know about the corpse?”

 Some ministers couldn't help but asked curiously.

He believed that he was knowledgeable and well-read, and he knew everything about astronomy, geography, and historical relics. He had never heard of monsters like corpses.

I can’t help but wonder if Xu Yan made it up.

"I saw it in a storybook. It's a very old storybook. I heard it's the only one."

Xu Yan replied.

 Saw it in the storybook?

The minister was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "It's just a matter of words..."

 The next words suddenly got stuck in my throat.

He suddenly thought of the rumor that Xu Yan believed the legend in the story and went around looking for experts. In order to practice real martial arts, he was ridiculed behind his back for not being able to use his brain.

 In the end, he really succeeded in practicing extremely powerful martial arts!

 In this way, the legend is not unbelievable!

Thinking about it like this, he couldn't say what he said next.

Xu Yan continued to look at the corpse, took off all the clothes on the corpse, and looked at it over and over.

The Minister of the Ministry of War was so moved that he shed tears. He trembled his lips and was about to speak. Emperor Qi glared at him with a cold and stern look. In the end, the Minister of the Ministry of War had no choice but to shut up.

 Let Xu Yan writhe the corpse.

“It’s strange. If it wasn’t done by corpses, what could it be?”

Xu Yan was puzzled. He recalled the story books he had read, but there was no similar description.

Sudden!

His eyes narrowed and he saw a small hole on the shriveled corpse, where the heart was.

 It was as if something had pierced the heart.

"This is…"

Xu Yan frowned and stroked the wound with his hand. The wound was very small, as if it had been pierced by a small awl.

"mosquito?"

 The blood was sucked dry and turned into a mummy, while a small wound appeared at the heart.

Involuntarily, Xu Yan had an image in his mind of a giant mosquito knocking down the Minister of War, piercing his heart with its mouthpart, and sucking out the blood.

“Is it some kind of blood-sucking monster like a mosquito?”

Xu Yan couldn't help but think of the fire-maned wolf, which was no longer a beast. How could ordinary beasts have such powerful strength?

And the murderer who killed the Minister of War and others was also an existence like the fire-maned wolf, which had transcended the category of beast?

He pondered for a moment and then said: "I don't know who the murderer is, maybe it's some kind of monster? I'll go back and ask the master. Maybe the master knows."

 Master is a reclusive expert, so he should know what kind of monster this is.

 There is such a monster hiding in the endless mountains?

Xu Yan suddenly became interested in the Endless Mountains and these unknown monsters. He decided to go back and ask his master if he could go to the Endless Mountains to hunt monsters with his current strength.

 “I’ll go back and ask the master.”

Xu Yan left happily, preparing to rush back to Donghe County to ask his master what kind of monster it was that sucked people dry, what its strength was, and whether he could handle it!
