NOVEL NEXT Chapter 21 Two Dead Cities
The Saint of Pure Heart spread her consciousness and enveloped these two towns.
Not only is Shanghe Town a dead city, but Xiahe Town is also a dead city!
The so-called life of people here is just a group of corpses moving around!
No wonder the Hongchen Patriarch, who shook the hearts of immortals, gods, and Taoists, came here without making any waves. How could a dead person have feelings for a beauty!
She was horrified, having never seen anything like this before.
There are eight small towns near the Pure Land of the Red Dust. What worries the Saint of Pure Heart is whether the situation in the other six small towns is the same as here.
The other six small towns are far away from here, and her consciousness cannot cover them.
Fortunately, Jiang Li gave the answer quickly.
Everything is normal in the other six small towns. Jiang Li thought for a while and explained a little more, They are all living people.
Pure Heart Saint Lady Xin said you might as well not explain.
Saintess Pure Heart's divine consciousness can cover two small towns because she can only cover two small towns.
Jiang Li's consciousness can cover eight small towns because there are only eight small towns.
Even though the six small towns were all normal, the Pure Heart Saint was not happy.
How long has it been since you guys have been here? It won't be like this if you come to the God Transformation stage.
This method of keeping a corpse alive and moving is extremely high-end, and only people in the transformation stage can discover the clues.
The Saint of Pure Heart explained in a low mood: The spirit transformation stage has already begun. In the eyes of the elders in the sect, the spiritual valley is just a trivial matter. There is no need to worry about problems with the spiritual valley. Therefore, the sect will only send those who have no hope of cultivation and only have golden elixirs. The disciples of the first stage are stationed here, and a Nascent Soul stage steward can manage the eight towns, and there will be no problems.
But now there's a big problem! Jiang Li said seriously.
The two came to the tavern below and were warmly received by the waiter.
Hey, the two guests look strange. They are from outside. This is rare. Is this a fairy from the pure land of mortals?
Seeing the beautiful appearance of the Pure Heart Saint, the waiter asked uncertainly. The Pure Heart Saint didn't say anything and just nodded.
Xiao Er, I want to ask you something.
Jiang Li took out a low-grade spiritual stone and placed it on the table.
Sir, this is absolutely impossible. You two are nobles from the pure land of mortals. How can I accept your money? The waiter was startled and quickly refused.
After some hesitation, the waiter accepted the spirit stone.
Copper plates are traded here, and a low-grade spiritual stone is a very rare item.
The Pure Heart Saint raised her eyebrows slightly, and the waiter's movements were natural and smooth, without any stiffness. Only with the naked eye, there was no difference between her and a living person.
She carefully looked at the waiter with her spiritual consciousness and found that there was a Gu worm in his Dantian and sea of consciousness. The two Gu worms were male and female. One controlled movement and the other controlled thinking. This was a very technical method of controlling corpses.
It's the Gu tribe's unique method of controlling corpses!
As far as she knows, the disciple stationed here is a Gu tribe member!
She buried her discovery in her heart and quietly watched Jiang Li talking to the waiter.
Have any particularly beautiful fairies passed by here in the past few years?
The waiter said without thinking: Don't tell me, two years ago, no, three years ago, a beautiful fairy who looked like she walked out of a painting passed by here. Everyone didn't even eat, they all ran out to see it, but The fairy didn't even look at us and walked straight past us with bare feet. Some people wanted to follow the fairy, but Fairy Yuan stopped us.
Fairy Yuan is...
That's Fairy Yuan Ling who is in charge here.
So Fairy Yuan Ling also saw the beauty like the painting. How did she react? Did she show an expression of obsession? Did she step forward and kidnap her?
The waiter was startled and hurriedly whispered: Sir, please don't talk nonsense. How could Fairy Yuan Ling be so rude? Her expression was as usual, and she just lightly praised how beautiful she is.
Saint Pure Heart's brows frowned slightly, Junior Sister Yuan Ling was a Gu, so naturally she couldn't be a descendant of the founder of the world, so why wasn't she affected?
Strange things.
Jiang Li seemed not to notice the problem, chatting with the waiter about things such as how the harvest was this year, where Yuan Ling is now, how many spiritual stones the Red Dust Pure Land used to buy Linggu, and whether there was any deductions.
The waiter thought that these two people were sent by the Pure Land of Hongchen to investigate, and answered truthfully one by one.
Finally, Jiang Li asked with a smile: Do you know that you are already dead?
The waiter said blankly: Sir, what are you talking about?
Haha, just kidding. Jiang Li said haha and asked the confused waiter to continue his work.
Did Yuan Ling do it?
Don't jump to conclusions so early. You heard it too. Yuan Ling is not affected by the mortal fairy. This matter is not as simple as it seems to you.
Yuan Ling should only be at the Golden Core stage, and judging from the level of Gu insect cultivation, these people will not be like living people, and they will not even know that they are dead. It cannot be achieved by the Golden Core stage.
And it's not necessarily the case that only people from the Gu tribe can use Gu.
Jiang Li has traveled around the world for many years and has seen all kinds of strange and weird things. Naturally, he thinks more than Jingxin, a saint who only went down the mountain for a few years to symbolically wander around before returning to the sect.
Unfortunately, the Gu clan declined and chose to live in seclusion, so Jiang Li didn't know much about the Gu clan.
Yuan Ling is not here, I don't know where she went.
Let's go to Xiahe Town. I noticed that there is a golden elixir female cultivator in Xiahe Town. She should be one of your people. Jiang Li used his spiritual consciousness to scan Shangxiahe Town again, but did not find the aura of the golden elixir stage in Shanghe Town.
…
Du Xin'er sat cross-legged in a cheap spirit-gathering array and practiced hard. However, she didn't know what happened in the past few years. Her spiritual power had not increased at all. She felt that her body was like a leaky bucket. How much spiritual energy had entered was enough. How much goes out.
Maybe I'm really not suitable for cultivation. Coming here is suitable for me. Du Xin'er laughed at herself. She felt that her choice to come to Xiahe Town was the right choice. It is also a burden for people like me to stay in the sect. It’s better to come out.”
Who said you are a burden? A clear voice rang in Du Xin'er's ears, and she realized that Saint Pure Heart was standing in front of her, with a rather handsome man standing next to her.
But for some reason, there seemed to be tears in the saint's eyes.
How could the Pure Heart Saint not feel sad? She was not deeply impressed by Yuan Ling, but she was deeply impressed by Du Xiner.
The junior sisters in the Golden Core stage thought she was a superior saint and did not dare to approach her. Only Du Xin'er in the Golden Core stage dared to ask her frequently about the knowledge of Taoism.
After not seeing each other for several years, we are already separated by yin and yang.
In the eyes of Saint Pure Heart, Du Xin'er is also a moving corpse!
It's senior sister who can't help you, it's senior sister who has neglected her duty...
Saint Pure Heart knelt on the ground, hugged Du Xin'er, and sobbed.
Du Xin'er didn't know the situation, so she had to keep sitting cross-legged and gently patted the Holy Lady of Pure Heart on the back.
