Chapter 89 Marrow-eating beast
The movement in the cabin was already quite disturbing, and it was probably attracted by other monks' attention. Mo Wentian took out a third-level breath-retention talisman, infused his spiritual energy, left here silently, and hid it secretly not far away. Sure enough, after a while, several monks rushed over. Seeing the two extremely terrifying corpses inside, they looked at each other and saw the look of fear on each other's faces.
Qin Wansheng stood in front of the crowd. He looked at the two corpses on the ground and said in a silence: "No, we are still one step late!"
Zhu Ziming stood on one side, not knowing that Qin Wan's business was insignificant. Although he had always had a rift with Liu Longyang, he felt compassion in his heart when he saw this man die so miserably and sighed: "Yes, we are not slow, but we still haven't had time to save fellow Taoist Liu's life."
Qin Wansheng shook his head and smiled, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, what I said is that before we came, fellow Taoists had already been here, and Fellow Daoist Liu's storage bag had been taken away by that man."
"What?" Zhu Ziming reacted, looked over, his face changed. He didn't know what was in Liu Longyang's storage bag, but the two Yang Ling grass alone made him covetous.
At this time, dozens of monks had arrived here, all of whom were elite disciples from various sects. Ren Pingzhi was among them. Although he got on the boat late, after he came in, he soon encountered Qin Wansheng and others. There were many colleagues on his side. He felt quite at ease, but the two strange and terrifying corpses immediately made him exclaim: "What kind of monster is this?"
Although Pan Yulong, a disciple of Feiyun Sect, had a low cultivation level, he was obviously very broad. He and Ren Pingzhi had always been good, and explained: "The leader of Ren didn't know that this was not a monster, but an ancient monster called a marrow-eating beast. He was born to like eating human brains. In ancient times, there was a Red Barbarian tribe who used it as a god and raised countless slaves, raising his head in a pottery jar to sacrifice to the marrow-eating beast."
Ren Pingzhi's face turned pale and he said horrifiedly: "No wonder he found a mountain of human-headed pottery jars in the cabin. It turned out that this ship was a merchant ship where the ancient Red Man tribes communicated with each other."
"What this fellow Taoist said is extremely true!" Qin Wansheng suddenly took over the words, his face was a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoist fellow Taoists, it seems that there is an ancient marrow-eating beast lurking on this ancient ship. The beast's talented skills are spiritual attacks and hidden tracks. Although it is at the third level now, it is not something we can deal with."
Ren Ping's face was unrestrained. He was greedy for life and feared death. He always believed that a gentleman should not stand a dangerous wall. Now that he is in a dangerous place, he naturally regrets endlessly.
Zhu Ziming looked around and said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, we are many people, and the marrow-eating beast is afraid of it, so he dare not act rashly."
Qin Wansheng nodded and said with a frustrated look: "I didn't expect that the ancient giant ship not only had no treasures, but also had hidden dangers. Friends, let's go and take a look. If you can't find valuable spiritual objects, it's better to leave here earlier."
Everyone claimed that since entering the ship, seven or eight monks have died under the sneak attack of the marrow-eating beast, and they did not want to stay here for a long time.
Mo Wentian was hiding in the distance, quietly watching them leave. Suddenly his pupils shrank. He suddenly found three red lines floating behind the group of monks. What is this? He focused his eyes and had a vague transparent shadow. If he didn't look carefully, he could not see anything at all. In an instant, he clearly remembered that the monster who attacked Liu Longyang was hit by his three wind blades and left three quite shallow wounds. Could it be that monster followed them?
As soon as this thought came, he was frightened. After waiting for the monks to walk away, Mo Wentian slowly revealed his body in the dark. He slapped the beast-controlling bag, released the treasure hunting rat, and continued to search forward. However, as Qin Wansheng said, this ancient giant ship had no treasures. The treasure hunting rat circled in a circle and took him to a cabin for storing miscellaneous items. There were bedding, curtains, cotton blankets and other things piled up inside. It had long been decayed and worn, and it was overturned in a mess. It was obvious that a monk had come here and searched roughly.
The treasure hunter suddenly stopped in the corner of the cabin and screamed. It was obvious that there was a spiritual object hidden here. Mo Wentian was surprised and immediately stepped forward and was about to turn the cotton cloth piled up on it. However, at this moment, an alert in his heart rose, and all his hair stood up suddenly. A "pop" sound on his head. His sea of consciousness was as if he was stabbed hard by a needle. The pain like a piercing person almost made people lose consciousness. So at this moment of life and death, he rushed forward hard. With a puff, blood spurted out, and the scapula on his shoulders locked something tightly.
At the moment of the flash amphibian, Mo Wentian shook his backhand and threw out a cold fireball. The monster wanted to escape, but his huge mouthpart was locked in his scapula. He struggled hard for a few times but could not escape. He was hit by the fireball, and with a miserable hiss, he fell to the ground, and his whole body was burning with cold flames.
Mo Wentian turned his head and saw the monster's original shape, half a human-height, with a bird's head and a bird's body, with wings spreading three feet wide, and his face looked like an owl. The only difference was that there was a huge mouthpiece under his nose, which was flashing with a cold light, which seemed to be invincible.
Is this the marrow-eating beast? It turned out that he looked like this. Mo Wentian had discovered that there was no wound on the marrow-eating beast. It was obviously not the one that sneaked into Liu Longyang before. Could it be that there was not only one marrow-eating beast on the ancient giant ship? As soon as this thought came, he was frightened. He pressed the wound on his left shoulder tightly with his right hand, and blood kept flowing out of his fingers, and soon dyed his clothes blood.
And the marrow-eating beast, under the cold gaze of Mo Wentian, quickly burned into a pile of ashes, and the burnt smell suddenly filled the entire cabin.
Mo Wentian endured the pain in his left shoulder and uncovered the curtain in the corner of the wall. There was an animal egg in the bedding, the size of a goose egg, emitting a faint soft light, as if his vitality was extremely strong.
Is this? Mo Wentian was overjoyed and immediately used insight to check it out. As expected, it was a beast egg of a marrow-eating beast. No wonder the marrow-eating beast was extremely smart. He knew that he was not sure about it, but he still took the risk of attacking it. It turned out that it was because he discovered the animal egg and lost his judgment in a hurry.
He took out a spare beast-controlling bag and put all the eggs of the marrow-eating beast in it. He had been staying in the giant ship for nearly two hours. If he was still stuck in the ship and did not leave, when the effect of the Divine Yuan Dan passed, he would not be the opponent of the marrow-eating beast at all when his spiritual consciousness returned to its original state. It would be better to leave here first.
As soon as this thought was made, he put the treasure hunting rat into the beast-controlling bag and walked out of the cabin. Suddenly, in the silence, a heart-wrenching scream in the distance cut through the night sky, and the sound was extremely miserable. Mo Wentian knew in his heart that among Qin Wansheng's group of monks, one of the monks was attacked by the marrow-eating beast, and most of them had already fallen. Perhaps after this incident, Qin Wansheng and others would soon make the decision to leave the ancient giant ship.
Back along the original road, there were several new dead bodies on the road, all of which fell because the skull cap was pierced. They were obviously masterpieces of marrow-eating beasts. They walked out of the ancient giant ship quickly. The sky was just brighter outside, and the sky was filled with white light. A ray of sunlight shone on the desert, flashing with red light. The breeze blew, and a vast red sand and dust were raised. At this time, his spiritual consciousness suddenly landed and returned to the level of the ninth level of Qi refining. The medicinal effect of the Divine Yuan Pill has passed.
With his back to the sun, stepping on the soft quicksand, Mo Wentian used the magical movement technique and quickly returned along the way. In just one day, he walked out of the bloody desert, passed through the Canyon of the Sky, and came to the carnivorous forest. It was already evening. He was injured on his body and had a strong smell of blood. It was not very safe to pass the carnivorous forest at night. So he found a hidden cave, drilled in, cleaned it with magic, sealed the entrance of the cave, sat quietly on the ground and began to heal the wounds, and used spiritual energy to continuously warm the wounds, so he controlled the injury and no longer bleeded, but if he wanted to fully recover as before, it would take a long time to condition it.
After controlling the injury, he began to count the spoils and opened Lu Yan's storage bag. There were ninety-three low-grade spirit stones, twenty-six Yijin Pills, twenty-seven third-level spiritual medicine Yijin Grass, two wood spirit grass, one blood-transforming vine, one blood marrow branch, and hundreds of second-level marrow-washing flowers and iron-skinned dates. This person's cultivator at the ninth level of Qi refining has such a value, which shows that he has done all kinds of bad things in normal times.
Not only that, among the secrets of martial arts he collected, he also found a magic secret of Tianshi. Tianshi is an intermediate spell that can enlarge the target scene within his sight and make it clear and visible. This is an extremely useful magic secret. No wonder he and Liu Longyang fought to the death in the cabin, but Lu Yan was the first to arrive. He thought he was lucky, but he did not expect to rely on Tianshi. However, it was because of this that he lost his life in vain. It can be seen that although the magic is good, he still has to use his brain.
