Chapter 320 Winter Man and Summer Insect in Prison! (Ask for monthly ticket)
Shen Lian often travels to and from various caves through the teleportation tree. He has long been accustomed to the sudden trance and quickly came back to his senses.
Then the boundless darkness came into view.
With the strength of Shen Lian's physical body, his five senses are far beyond the same realm, but he still cannot see through the darkness around him, and he only feels as if he has fallen into the abyss forever.
Only the vent not far away provided faint light.
The previous voices discussing the Peach Blossom Club also came from the vents, but now their footsteps were moving from near to far, and it was difficult to hear what they were saying clearly.
"Plague Heavenly Soldiers?"
"It seems that there must be a peach tree hidden in the ruins of the old heaven that connects the past and the present."
Shen Lian was not surprised at all, he already knew It seems that the innate spiritual roots of Li Liuru can connect the past and present. It was because of the peach tree that Li Liuru came to the old alchemy cauldron room in later generations in his sleep.
The environment he was in was almost exactly the same as the immortal prison room mentioned by Li Liuru.
Shen Lian looked around.
The darkness in the prison made the surroundings full of unknowns. Not to mention Li Liuru, he would probably go insane even after being imprisoned for hundreds of years.
"Speaking of which, can I meet Li Liuru again?"
According to the time point, Li Liuru got out of trouble before and after the moral heavenly Supreme Taiyiguo, and Shen Lian asked for information indirectly.
"It is estimated to be dangerous. The Immortal Prisoner's House is quite large and should only be partially ruined."
Shen Lian activated his magical power of food and nourishment. Gao Qiu was in the prison in the northwest corner of the Immortal Prisoner's Room. His condition was relatively stable and he must not have been in danger.
The occasional noises coming from outside the house should be from the monks trying to escape from their cells.
Shen Lian groped for the outline of the doorway next to the vent, but did not rush to take action. There had been many disasters on the eve of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation. Compared with the outside world, a closed prison was safer.
“The Outer Sect Competition will definitely be witnessed by the Chief God of the Ministry of Plague. How could they not know that the ruins of the old Heavenly Palace involve the secrets before the Heaven and Earth Tribulation.”
“What is their purpose? , send many monks here?”
Shen Lian did not hesitate to plant the teleport tree rhizome he carried with him next to the vent.
The roots penetrated into the gaps between the bricks and grew vigorously. After the banyan tree was promoted to the sixth level, the top of the teleportation tree could smoothly travel between the two worlds in half a day.
Shen Lian quickly approached the vent.
He turned his head sideways and leaned against the vent to listen to the whispers of the two Plague Heavenly Soldiers.
The prison room is extremely depressing. If the Heavenly Soldiers of the Plague Department do not communicate with each other, they will go crazy sooner or later.
The words of the plague soldiers showed fear.
“Hey, it won’t be long before the Hunyuan Daoguo comes out, and everything ends up happening. I hope Sanqing Daozu can put an end to the troubles in Heaven.”
“Even the Queen Mother’s Peach Club can appear. Unexpected, who knows."
"I heard that the problem lies with the [Original Flat Peach Tree] itself?"
"It always feels a bit baffling. The Seven Fairies are responsible for taking care of the flat peach tree. I'm afraid there is something wrong. You must have noticed it a long time ago, but the result happened in Pantao Society..."
The two Plague Heavenly Soldiers gradually walked away, and their voices became intermittent.
"Be careful, we have to...inspect...the depths frequently. The Plague Immortal should not be ignored, mainly...his identity is quite special..."
Shen Lian frowned tightly, There seems to be a certain being being imprisoned in the Immortal Room.
“The sick peach tree was taken care of by the seven fairies.”
“According to the Jade Rabbit, Chang’e killed the seven fairies and buried their bodies under the laurel tree.”
"Hiss."
"Assuming that Chang'e is not crazy, what exactly does she want to do?"
Shen Lian's temples ached faintly. He had indeed got a lot of clues, but some seemed to be missing. The key is that it cannot be connected.
“One thing is certain, the meeting of flat peaches 80% indicates the beginning of the calamity of heaven and earth, and the Sanqing sermon is also for this reason.”
“At the same time, Lingshan in the West will not be peaceful, or even It has fallen early.”
"There is also Jin Chanzi."
"If the calamity of heaven and earth is caused by Jin Chanzi's Buddhist scriptures, where did he get the Mahayana Buddha Dharma, which is like a worm?"
Shen Lian Thoughts were swirling, and the sound of water drops suddenly sounded in the darkness.
“Water droplets?!”
Shen Lian’s pupils shrank slightly. The Immortal Prisoner’s Room was the place where prisoners were detained by the Plague Department. All the stones used were engraved with mysterious spiritual patterns.
Even though countless years have passed, it remains indestructible.
Unable to figure out the environment, he did not act rashly, but restrained his breath and tried not to make any noise.
"Huh?"
The temperature in the cell dropped sharply, and a low gasp came, like the unwilling wailing of a dying person, faintly revealing deep despair.
Shen Lian felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. It was obvious that he was not the only one in the cell.
Think about it, flat peaches will cause a large number of plague immortals to go crazy. It is difficult for the plague immortals to have free cells in the prison room, and the probability of them being in the same room is greater.
The gasp is everywhere, echoing in all directions.
Shen Lian exerted all his strength, and the germs spread out. The prison area was not large, but the germs were already everywhere, but the source of the wheezing was not found, as if it came from out of thin air.
The moment the force touches the top of the prison.
Shen Lian immediately found the source of the strangeness.
There is an upside-down peach tree growing on the top of the prison. To be precise, it is a strange peach tree that is transformed into humanoid flesh.
The roots of the flat peach tree are extending towards Shen Lian.
You can see a face embedded in the surface of the tree trunk, and its skin is full of grooves, like an old man who is about to die.
Shen Lian was horrified and did not dare to hesitate at all.
No matter what, even if you are just a handyman in heaven, you cannot be underestimated.
Click click click.
The bones and spine burst out of the body, and a fishy wind arose out of thin air in the prison.
Although there is resentment, it is not very strong.
Shen Lian controlled the white bone spine to stab the human-faced peach tree. The expected counterattack did not appear, and the white bone spine easily broke through the latter's flesh.
The aura of corpse came to my face.
The spine of white bones penetrated the human face, and the vitality of the peach tree also dimmed.
Who would have thought that the demons hidden in the ruins of the old heaven are so superficial and may not even be more than a hundred years old.
Crack.
The body fell to the ground.
Shen Lian touched the human-like tree corpse through the white bone spine.
[The identification of the flat peach ghost is completed, Ksitigarbha Yama experience +0.00%]
[The flat peach ghost]
[Once a palace maid in Yaochi, she accidentally witnessed the flat peach tree, which caused the body and soul to be eroded, and gradually became related to the flat peach tree. The branches merge into one. 】
The corpse has been squeezed dry by the peach tree in the body. Although a ghost was born, the soul riddled with holes cannot allow the ghost to take shape.
As time goes by, it becomes weak and weak.
After the resentment was eliminated, the corpse immediately fell apart, and the peach tree also fell apart.
Shen Lian threw the body into the alchemy furnace and planned to return to the vent to wait for the teleportation tree to grow, but he realized something was wrong after only a few steps.
The corpse gas in the prison unconsciously flowed to the mouth and nose, and the pungent stench became fresh.
The state of mind is also different.
Shen Lian no longer wanted to leave the prison, and even became calm when facing the teleportation tree.
He even subtly hints to himself that if he stays in prison for a long time to practice in seclusion, there is no need to return to the outside world. Only darkness can calm his mind.
“Damn it!”
Shen Lian cursed and urged the lotus platform to sink into the Niwan Palace.
While he was conscious, he noticed that the blood vessels and meridians on his arms burst out, showing a bluish-purple color, squirming like a living thing. Unknowingly, the roots of the peach tree were secretly parasitic in the body.
Shen Lian's back was slightly bulging.
When the roots are strong enough, the peach tree will probably burst out of its body.
The lotus platform's light swelled, the skin and flesh could not help but sizzle, and the frequency of the roots twisting increased, trying to penetrate into the bones and organs.
Shen Lian grabbed some of the roots and forcibly pulled the peach sapling away.
Most likely due to the abundant energy and blood, the peach sapling has matured into a mature tree in just a few moments, and is actually half a meter long.
Shen Lian used the dim light from the vent to watch the saplings struggling, and felt shuddering.
According to the information obtained from the appraisal, the palace maid suffered from the erosion of the peach tree just by witnessing it, which shows how many people were affected at that time.
The white bone spine became slender and drilled out of the vent.
In the dark corridor, there are rows of cells on both sides of the wall.
Suddenly.
Shen Lian felt extremely scared after thinking about it, and his whole body started to tremble.
In his previous life, he had watched a documentary about [Cordyceps sinensis]. When the larvae were accidentally parasitized by special fungi, they would behave strangely and come to the surface when they were dying.
Although the larvae at that time were completely occupied by fungi, they were still alive.
It is called [Winter Insect].
After the temperature rises in summer, mycelium begins to grow, and mushrooms will grow from the heads of the larvae until they become [summer grass].
When Shen Lian was affected by the peach saplings, his mood changes were very similar to Cordyceps sinensis, and he wanted to stay in a closed and humid prison for a long time.
For some reason, the cells in the Prison Immortal Room are becoming more and more like... petri dishes.
Yes, a petri dish for growing cordyceps.
“The righteous god of the Ministry of Plague set up the Outer Sect Grand Prix here, doesn’t he have some plan?”
“Or is it also the result of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s plan?”
Bang bang bang.
The footsteps came again.
Shen Lian took back the bones and spine, and two plague soldiers passed by in a hurry. They stopped communicating, and their breathing became heavy involuntarily.
"Come on, we have to contact the God of Plague as soon as possible, otherwise..."
Before they finished speaking, the two fell to the ground.
Only breathing remains.
Boom!
The sound of the bell seemed to come from the sky.
Shen Lian realized that Yuanshi Tianzun officially held a sermon on Hunyuan Daoguo, and a large number of immortals, including Zhen Yuanzi, rushed to the temple.
The ghost eye magic weapon attached to the white bone spine swept outwards.
The ghost eye was overwhelmed. When the magic weapon cracked, buds of flat peach saplings sprouted inside, causing the magic weapon to be completely damaged.
Shen Lian covered his eyes and forcibly pulled out a wisp of new roots from the corner of his eyes.
He was stunned. The Ghost Eye had been refined many times by Ghost Father. It was a superior multiplier, but it turned out to be so vulnerable.
“Once you see a flat peach tree, no matter whether it is a living creature or not, you will suffer from parasitism.”
The bodies of the two plague soldiers are entangled with each other, and branches and leaves have sprouted from the seven orifices. There are peach trees growing.
"It stands to reason that with the terrifying spread of the peach tree, no immortals in heaven can survive, and they will all be reduced to cordyceps."
The only thing that makes Shen Lian happy is that the teleportation tree is not imprisoned by the immortals. room impact.
It won’t be long before he can move forward and retreat freely.
“Wait.”
“When it comes to the calamity of heaven and earth, why should I, a mortal who has not yet become a land god, risk my life and wait until the end of the outer sect competition?”
Gao Qiu's soul aura is slightly weakened, and his vitality will not be cut off for the time being.
Shen Lian felt that there were parasitic peach saplings in Gao Qiu, but the lower the realm, the slower the saplings grew. The latter's seventh realm cultivation would give them an advantage in the tug-of-war.
The next step will be to see who can't hold it any longer, Shen Lian is still invincible.
"Idle time is also idle, why not try cultivating a peach sapling."
"In the future, when I work in the fifth profession, the peach sapling can be used as a basic material, but it is not easy to let the sapling parasitize. in damaged objects.”
Shen Lian glanced at Zhongdantian and looked at the dragon fish robe that had just been promoted to a treasure.
After the dragon fish robe was promoted, he simply refined it. After all, the treasure was too conspicuous and could only be used when in danger.
"To be fair, the dragon fish robe does have some possibility."
Shen Lian chuckled and quietly took out the trembling dragon fish robe. While the soul was refining the treasure, he was elusive. How to deal with it.
………
The supreme and ever-melting sky.
The small world is near the end of the ghost market, and the area of Supreme Changrong Tian is extremely vast.
There is a giant building that is magnified thousands of times of ordinary palaces, surrounded by boundless Taoist charm, just like the old heaven imagined by the world.
The monks from the Plague Department who entered and exited the door were as small as ants, but their cultivation levels were profound.
They have already experienced transformation into immortality.
The three righteous gods of the Plague Tribe were sitting in the hall, and they were incomparably taller than the monks.
Tao Yun enveloped the face of San Zheng Shen, and it could only be seen that the robe was exactly the same as that of the old plague department, and there was a downpour of bacterial mist falling between his breaths.
The monks you belong to can rely on absorbing the bacterial mist, which is comparable to swallowing a panacea.
The right god on the left moved his mouth slightly, "The outer gate competition has begun, in the ruins of the old Heavenly Prison Immortal Room where Mahayana Buddhism is imprisoned."
The voice echoed in the air, and the monks at their feet Couldn't hear it at all.
"Oh."
The Right God on the right said solemnly: "So let Xiaoleiyin Temple intervene?"
"Mahayana Buddhism is related to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
Zhongzhengshen sighed and said: "It's easy to invite gods but hard to send them away. Xiaoleiyin Temple will not let the plague department go. It's a big trouble."
"You can't have your cake and eat it too." ”
The Central God turned to the right, "Do you still think that calamities in heaven and earth are man-made?"
The Right God on the right did not reply, and the Right God on the left interjected: "Let's look at the outer gate competition. Can it cause some trouble?"
After that, he waved his hand, and a treasure mirror appeared in front of him.
The treasure mirror revealed two to three hundred outer disciples in the ruins of the old heaven.
They were all infected by the peach tree. The monks who progressed faster had their backs bulged and their bodies were bloated and unable to move.
Just like Shen Lian said, it's like Cordyceps Sinensis.
"Tian Shou, was originally the headless Arhat under Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
"Who is he?"
The righteous god on the left pointed at Shen Lian , the other two people made some calculations, but they didn’t know the cause and effect.
They looked surprised. One thing was certain, this person was not a fruit-core man born and raised in the Plague Department, but came from the outside world.
"Erase it after the outer sect competition is over. You can keep Tianshou, just in time to communicate with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva through him."
In the mirror, Shen Lian suddenly stood up and looked up at the Sanzheng God. direction.
The other two gods were expressionless.
Central Zhengshen’s pupils trembled, and Shen Lian’s appearance felt extremely familiar.
I have seen it myself. I saw it when the heaven and earth were measuring calamities.
