Alienated Martial Arts

Northwest of Mozhou, in the Luocha Mountain.

It has been drizzling for several days.

Compared with the cold wind and heavy snowfall in the Northern Wilderness Icefield, the harsh winter has passed here, and the temperature has been rising slowly.

Coupled with the watering of rain, the small grass breaks through the soil layer, covering the earth with patches of light green.

But among the vibrant scenery, there are disharmonious colors mixed in.

This is a large area that looks like it was burnt by land reclamation. There is still a strong smell of burnt hair inside. Even the continuous spring rain cannot clean everything.

Within the wisps of rain, several figures were moving quickly through.

They were several feet apart from each other, and their movements were stiff but uniform.

The people behind seemed to be replicating the movements of the people in front. Even the placement of the footprints was exactly the same, with almost no mistakes.

It was not until evening that the team stopped.

Standing on the top of a mountain, looking down at the center of the blackened area below.

There, an altar seven or eight meters high was piled up.

There is also a figure wearing a dark robe, sitting on the altar, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.

Suddenly, he slowly raised his head and glanced at the hilltop opposite.

With a movement, countless black-backed flies flew up.

Immediately, the black robe disappeared, revealing a terrifying body underneath that was as skinny as a stick and covered with dense wounds.

The warriors on the top of the slope had expressionless faces. They simultaneously looked away from the man and looked at the altar below.

This is no ordinary altar.

All are made of accumulated bones.

The top two layers are complete skulls.

From time to time, insects of all sizes crawl in and out of the eye sockets, and various animals and birds come close to hunt, even forming a closed-loop ecosystem.

Everything is related to corruption and death.

In the end, this strange altar was formed, which may be called Jingguan.

Faced with this terrifying and strange scene, the warrior on the rocky slope remained absolutely silent, without even the slightest change in his eyes or expression.

Without any communication, orders or assignments, one of the tall and strong men stepped out from the crowd and walked step by step towards the altar in the center of the charred area.

The distance between the two sides is getting closer.

Click!

Taking another step, the strong man suddenly stopped.

The whole person was like a balloon that had been popped, and began to shrive up quickly, until it finally turned into a withered corpse and fell to the charred ground with a thud.

On the rocky slope, the other warriors remained silent.

After a while, two more people jumped down the stone slope.

Without any fear of death, they began to move forward quickly along the path taken by the strong men.

Then he stopped without any warning. Even though his energy and blood were surging and his true energy was connected, he could only resist for no more than three breaths.

Then they all followed in the footsteps of the strong man and turned into two shriveled corpses and fell to the ground.

The remaining warriors watched all this in silence and began to retreat without any hesitation.

Their faces were still expressionless, with no sadness at the death of their companions, and no anger at the need for revenge.

Time passed little by little.

Soon the night passed and day came.

Along with them came a dozen figures wearing cloaks and hoods.

They surrounded a slender girl in the middle, and at the same time their eyes fell on the bone altar.

Further away, more warriors gathered through the rain curtain.

Everyone had expressionless faces, and their movements were mechanically precise and uniform, as if they were clones of the same person.

"The Luocha clan is finished."

"Then, let's get started."

Yunhong's tone was calm, and her long and thick hair fell to the ground behind her. If you look closely, it didn't look like a waterfall of black hair, but instead was replaced by mysterious and mysterious silk.

Even the clothes she wore were woven from the weird threads protruding from her body, emitting a faint light under the rain.

After her words fell, the warriors silently jumped down the stone slope and headed towards the Bone Altar.

The battle breaks out in silence.

Life passes in silence.

Apart from the whistling wind and the swishing rain, there was no other sound.

Finally, after the ground was covered with corpses, Saint Qinglian, who was also a disciple of Dingxuan, stepped onto the altar.

She took one step forward, and suddenly lotus flowers bloomed in full bloom, and the sound of rushing water flowed, completely covering the skinny old man sitting in the center.

"Everyone in the tribe died, and the warriors attracted from outside were all useless trash. I thought the ceremony had failed and no one could successfully let the Holy Spirit descend.

Who knows that there is no perfect way for people to come here? She is the best container that can be used to carry the Holy Spirit so that it can freely walk between heaven and earth. "

Facing the unreserved grasp, the old man, who was as skinny as a skeleton, opened his mouth and revealed a gloomy and strange smile with unknown meaning.

Bang!

At this moment, the entire altar exploded.

It was as if a cage of bones had been opened, revealing the secrets hidden within.

It was a sarcophagus wrapped in rotting flesh.

It exudes a strong fishy smell.

There was a soft click.

The sarcophagus was pushed away directly, but it was empty with nothing inside.

There was only one green lamp burning quietly, which did not go out even if it was watered by rain.

There was also a hint of actual malice rising from the flames of the green lantern.

Saint Qinglian suddenly stopped.

At the top of the stone slope, Yunhong stepped out in one step, and in an instant he crossed a distance of tens of feet and reached the edge of the gap in the Bone Altar.

She had no expression on her face and slowly stepped forward. Without even looking at the skinny old man, she reached out and picked up the green lantern.

All malice disappeared at this moment and poured into Yun Hong's body.

She closed her eyes little by little, blocking the bright blue light that suddenly lit up in her eyes.

Behind the stone slope further away, all the Ding Xuanwu practitioners stood still at the same time, like machines that had been cut off from the power supply, as if they had all lost their energy and power at the same time.

"Go to sleep. I will never disturb you. I will only quietly wait for the Holy Spirit to wake up."

"Don't think about resisting, because resisting is useless. The Holy Spirit is so powerful that even a great master who has reached the Yang pole realm cannot resist the Holy Spirit's possession and can only surrender his body obediently."

"If it weren't for the Holy Spirit's high requirements, no one in my entire clan would be able to meet the standards for sacrifice. How could such a good thing happen to a little girl like you?

Therefore, you should thank me for giving you such an opportunity to dedicate yourself to the Holy Spirit and gain the ultimate opportunity to sublimate your life. "

The old man slowly knelt down on the ground, his face full of pious and fervent expression.

Yunhong remained silent and silent.

Inside her body, a life-and-death showdown was going on.

There is no bloody battle, nor violent confrontation of strength, but the purest spiritual confrontation.

The evil spirit shot out from the green lantern of the sarcophagus wanted to take over her body and walk the world on her behalf.

So for Yunhong, the real battle has just begun when she picks up the green lantern.

A spiritual war instantly broke out.

Time passed little by little.

Yunhong never opened her eyes.

The skinny old man seemed a little confused and couldn't help but raise his head. His cloudy eyes penetrated the rain curtain and looked at the distance of the stone slope where the Ding Xuanwu master was.

At a glance, his expression suddenly became more suspicious.

The warriors who followed this little girl seemed to have gone crazy, and seemed to have turned into headless flies. They began to circle around, their movements were stiff and twisted, and they would not move even if they bumped into something. stop.

Instead, it went down and then hit up.

Until the stone and wood are smashed into pieces, or they twitch and fall to the ground motionless.

"What exactly is going on?"

“Did the coming of the Holy Spirit succeed or fail?”

The old man had thoughts in his mind, and just as he was about to get up to check, he found that Yun Hong suddenly opened his eyes.

An extremely rare smile appeared on her face, and she spoke for the second time since her appearance.

"It turned out to be a visitor from outer space."

"It told me that I should go to Xuanbinghai."

"Then I can go in the opposite direction to its hometown, where delicious food is everywhere."

The old man looked surprised and uncertain, "You, what are you..."

The smile on Yunhong's face only lasted for a short moment, and then quietly disappeared.

She lowered her head, overlooking the mummy-like body.

Then he slowly stretched out a finger and found out a wisp of treacherous thread, which disappeared silently into the center of his brow.

The moment before his own will dissipated, a large amount of information poured in, and the old man finally understood what kind of terrifying monster he wanted to bring the Holy Spirit to the world.

Entry, erosion, and substitution are the means of the Holy Spirit.

But in front of Yun Hong, who has experienced the fusion of true spirits, discovering, analyzing and eliminating distracting thoughts has become as easy and natural as eating and drinking.

Until the essence is taken and the dross is removed from the later ones, swallowed up in reverse, and merged into one.

Therefore, it was supposed to be the unfolding of eroding the true spirit and occupying the body, but it was not until the end that it was suddenly discovered that the so many people attracted were actually just one person.

They actually belong to the same will.

In this case, no matter how strong the Holy Spirit is, it cannot withstand this level of mental erosion. In the end, it can only drink hatred on the spot and become Dingxuan Yunhong's spiritual food.

"Xuanbinghai."

she repeated again, turning to look north.

Groups of warriors walked out of Luocha Mountain, their eyes flashing with a faint green light, like a big wave starting to enter the Northern Wasteland.

…………

……………………

"There should be Kongwu Mountain ahead."

"After climbing over this mountain, you can truly see the mysterious sea of ​​ice that you have never seen before."

Wei Tao stopped, looked up at the mountains shrouded in thick fog, and then looked back.

Apart from Ni Hao, the only ones left beside him were Qing Nu and the tightly wrapped Master Beihuang.

The warriors of the Alfalfa Tribe were left early by his tactics to avoid being caught in danger later and cutting off the line of contact between him and the three overseas mountains.

Ni Hao said, "I heard from my teacher before that many southern Xinjiang masters are buried in Kongwu Mountain. I don't know if their bodies are still well preserved after so many years."

"The body of the Southern Xinjiang Grandmaster."

When Wei Tao heard this, a strange thought suddenly flashed through his mind, "Sister, do you think it's possible that when Emperor Wu enters the Xuanbing Sea again this time, there will be an army of corpse puppets behind him, all composed of grandmasters? "

Ni Hao was startled for a moment, then thought slowly and said, "After all, when the golden glow first appeared, a divine will rose into the sky. If Emperor Wu had been prepared a hundred years ago, it would be possible."

Wei Tao nodded and was about to speak but closed his mouth again.

He narrowed his eyes, and a group of shadowy black spots were reflected at the end of his vision.

"This should be a pack of wolves."

Ni Xan looked far away, a look of doubt flashing in his eyes, "However, I have never seen such a huge wild wolf, the size is like an adult buffalo."

Wei Tao said, "They may be like the snow leopard I saw before. They were eroded by some unknown mysterious force and became what they are now."

"Junior brother, what are you going to do? Are you going to beat them up and eat them?"

"Forget it, I don't have much appetite now, as long as they don't come to provoke us..."

At this moment, a shrill wolf howl sounded, coming through the wind and snow.

As if the horn of charge was sounded, the wolves began to charge faster.

They were extremely fast and were already close after a moment.

"I've given you a way to survive, but you have to step into the gate of hell."

Wei Tao sighed secretly, took a step forward, reached out and pressed the two white wolves' foreheads.

He was about to exert force, but his strength softened at the last moment. With just a flick of his wrist, he pinned the two white wolves to the ground and struggled several times, unable to get up.

After a few breaths, he followed the same pattern and knocked out the entire wolf pack.

They were lying all over the floor.

Wei Tao observed carefully and couldn't help but frown slightly after a moment.

Wolves are being eroded even deeper.

The changes are more obvious than that of the snow leopard.

But in his eyes, these are not the point.

What really interested Wei Tao was that, facing these white wolves at close range, he had a vague feeling that he could control them.

"So, after being deeply eroded by the aura from the Black Ice Sea, these originally ordinary animals have acquired some characteristics of spiritual beasts?"

As soon as he thought about this, he immediately had other thoughts.

They are all good experimental materials that allow him to verify the techniques he has practiced.

If you succeed, you can truly experience what it feels like to be a spiritual master.

It doesn’t matter if you fail, it’s just the difference between eating early and eating late.

A quarter of an hour later.

Wei Tao looked at the neatly arranged wolves in front of him, with a smile on his face.

These white wolves can really be used as spiritual beast masters.

Unfortunately, they are too weak.

Not to mention the Firebirds of the Lingguang family, even compared with the Green Wolf couple they met at the beginning, they were a veritable bunch of trash.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to control more than a dozen animals at once without feeling mentally exhausted.

After the initial novelty, Wei Tao suddenly lost interest.

"Leave the most well-behaved one for senior sister to play with, and kill all the others for meat."

He reached out and grabbed the wolf's neck, about to break it, but stopped at the last moment.

Staring into those green eyes, Wei Tao gently released his hand, and a new thought came to his mind.

After a while, he spent a lot of effort and made a wound on himself.

Then he opened the wolf's mouth and dripped some blood into it.

"What is junior brother doing?"

Ni Hao asked curiously from the side.

"I wanted to see if it would get a little stronger after drinking my blood."

Wei Tao casually threw it to the ground, and said slowly after thinking, "The Xuanwu Suzaku, the Ghost Chariot Snake, and the demon blood collected by the alchemist in a haphazard manner, I don't know what kind of impact they can have on it."

"I think the impact will be huge and it could blow up."

Ni Hao's eyes flashed, and he suddenly took a step back and stood behind Wei Tao.

At this moment, the alpha wolf suddenly let out a miserable howl, and his body swelled up like it was blowing air.

Then there was a muffled sound.

It exploded.

Blood spurted out, bones and flesh spattered, covering a large area of ​​the ground.

"Senior sister sees it very accurately."

Wei Tao wiped away a little bit of flesh foam on his lips, with a thoughtful expression on his face, "Maybe I bled too much just now, which made it a little unbearable. I'll try to control it a little less and try again."

He caught the second wolf, opened its mouth, and dropped a third of the wolf into it.

It fell to the ground and howled, rolling over and over, scratching and biting its body desperately.

It wasn't until the muscles surged and the fur tore apart, and then was covered by a new layer of cuticle, that he gradually calmed down and lay motionless on the cold ground.

"Dead again?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly and tested its breath.

"He's not breathing, so he's probably dead."

"Huh? No, it's not dead yet."

An inexplicable connection reminded him that the female wolf was still alive, and unexpectedly healthy and strong.

Boom!

Boom!

A sound like a drum sounded.

Its heart beat slowly, becoming more and more dull and powerful, and then slowly opened a pair of scarlet eyes.

"stand up."

Wei Tao did not speak, but grasped the inexplicable connection he just felt and issued an instruction in his consciousness.

The female wolf stood up straight, looking much larger than before.

It came closer little by little, rolled over and exposed its belly, declaring its surrender in this way.

"It feels a little strange. In addition to the spiritual connection, there seems to be a blood connection.

And after it became stronger, the mental consumption not only did not increase, it seemed to decrease a little. "

"However, the spiritual beasts I command seem a bit crude compared to other spiritual masters."

"At least their spirit beasts can be put away and released with a cool light when needed, but when they come to me, it's like they have become an animal keeper."

If you don’t understand something, don’t think about it. If you can’t find the reason, don’t look for it. Don’t do stupid things that take advantage of others.

Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He quickly put aside the doubts in his heart and looked at the other white wolves.

A quarter of an hour later he was on the sleigh.

The next day, when a few people entered Kongwu Mountain, a group of violent pioneers appeared in front of them.

Carnivores and herbivores live in harmony, sweeping and pushing their way through the mountains.

If you encounter other eroded mutated animals on the way, if you don't like them, let the spirit beasts eat them. If you don't like them, you will first control their spirits, then strengthen them, and join the growing team.

On the third day, Wei Tao finally felt tired.

At this moment, there were so many spiritual beasts under his command that even he himself did not know how many there were.

Behind Wei Tao, Qingnu held the black-robed master, with an almost numb expression on her face.

At first, she thought it would take a series of battles to get through this mountain full of beasts.

But as time went by, she didn't expect that they would push them forward in such an unreasonable way.

This was beyond her comprehension.

Suddenly, several shrill howls came from the front.

Wei Tao raised his eyes at this moment and came back to his senses from the simulation of Ximu Pansi Cave.

"I've been in the mountains for so long, and I finally met someone I can like."

"You guys wait here, I'll come back as soon as I can."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Tao had disappeared.

Carrying the sound of rolling wind and thunder, it disappeared into the depths of the wind and snow like lightning.

After a moment, several loud noises suddenly exploded in front of him.

There was also a ball of flames reaching into the sky, suddenly lighting up the dark night sky.

When Ni Hao came closer, he saw at first sight several spiritual beasts lying on the ground. Not far away, there was a middle-aged man lying with a large dent in his chest. He was obviously seriously injured and had lost his fighting ability.

Behind this corpse, there were two young men and women wearing strange robes, with angry expressions on their faces and cold eyes, fixed on Wei Tao.

"You beat my spiritual beast to death and you still attack me without any reason. Do you really think that I can suppress and bully you at will because of my good temper?"

"Forget it, we can discuss the specific compensation issues later."

Wei Tao brushed off the black ash on his hands and looked back expressionlessly.

"Do you know who we are?"

Perhaps unable to bear the increasingly heavy atmosphere, the young woman opposite gritted her teeth and took a step forward.

Click!

Her head exploded.

The headless body stood erect for a moment, then fell to the ground with a thud, creating a cloud of snowflakes.

A flash of scarlet flashed in Wei Tao's eyes, "I was talking about how to compensate, but I didn't ask who you are."

The middle-aged man who collapsed on the ground struggled to raise his head, "Do you know who she is? How dare you kill Wu Xing Tian Nei..."

Click!

Another cold light flashed through.

The middle-aged man's eyes widened, watching his body getting further and further away, and his eyes soon fell into darkness.

"You just attacked me without any warning. Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Wei Tao sighed, as if trying to force out a smile, but failed in the end.

He turned to look at the trembling young man at the end, "So, who is she?"
