Demon Cultivator: Heaven and earth are the cauldron, and all living beings are the medicine
#16 - Chapter 16: Dark and Windy, Killing Three People in a Row
As night deepened, a bright moon hung high in the night sky, casting a brilliant glow that illuminated the mountain paths of the Floating Cloud Mountains.
A young man, clad in a yellow robe, was seen holding a jar of fragrant wine, gradually moving away from the Song Family Mountain Fortress.
Behind the young man followed two burly youths, who dared only to cautiously trail behind him, their fear of the young man now even greater than before.
One of the youths mustered his courage, dragging his trembling body to the young man's side, forcibly squeezing out an ugly smile, and obsequiously said.
"Senior Brother Ning, you are truly amazing! You completed the task in no time at all; surely the sect will greatly reward you!"
Ning Lu remained silent, only nodding slightly, continuing to walk forward unperturbed.
Seeing this, the youth felt somewhat embarrassed and once again obediently followed behind the young man.
After a moment, the group of three entered a deep mountain forest, where silence reigned, empty and still, as if even a pin dropping could be heard.
With no one around, under the dark of the moon, it was the perfect time to kill!
At that moment, Ning Lu suddenly stopped, a faint blue light emanating from his hand, as he slowly turned around.
The two youths were stunned by this and also stopped, their expressions somewhat surprised, as they nervously asked, "Senior Brother Ning, what's wrong?"
Before the words could fade, the young man waved his hand, and two tiny pebbles shot into the sky, flying to the space between the eyebrows of the two youths in a single breath, piercing straight through their skulls.
"Whoosh."
Blood spurted out, splattering everywhere, and the lush green weeds on the ground, along with the dense trees around, were instantly covered in blood, creating an exceptionally gruesome scene.
The two youths were caught off guard, their vibrant lives taken in an instant, not even having time to let out a cry, their bodies falling heavily to the ground, devoid of any life!
Now, Ning Lu was already a cultivator at the high level of Body Tempering, and his Gravitational Art had reached the Great Accomplishment stage. For cultivators like the two youths, who were still at the first step of cultivation, killing them was only a matter of moments if they were unprepared.
Looking at the two cold corpses on the ground, the young man felt no emotion. This world was so treacherous and dark. While still a mortal, the young man had already seen through the darkness of the world and the insidiousness of human nature, and his heart was devoid of any pity for others.
The young man squatted down, took out a scarlet Primordial Ancient Cauldron from his sleeve, and absorbed the two youths' bodies into it.
"Ah!"
A sharp scream rang out, appearing exceptionally conspicuous in the empty and silent mountain forest.
Ning Lu was startled and suddenly looked up, only to see a young girl staring at him in the distance, her hands tightly covering her mouth, her eyes filled with horror. Seeing the young man look up, the girl immediately turned and ran, not daring to hesitate for even a moment.
"Damn it!" The young man cursed inwardly, immediately putting away the Primordial Ancient Cauldron in his hand. He pushed off with his legs, his figure rising from the ground, chasing after the girl at top speed.
"It's late, why would a young girl suddenly appear in this deep mountain forest? No matter what, I absolutely cannot let her leave alive!" Ning Lu was puzzled, but his murderous intent had reached its peak.
The girl's eyes were filled with tears, and crystalline teardrops slid down her cheeks and fell to the ground. Her heart had already been shattered by fear, her mind a blank, and the fear of death drove her to run forward continuously.
However, how could a mortal outrun a cultivator? Especially when the other party was just a young girl.
"Boom!"
In just a few breaths, the young man caught up with the girl, leaping up and landing heavily in front of her, blocking her path.
The girl was immediately so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, looking at the frail young man in front of her with terrified eyes, constantly choking back sobs, "I, I didn't see anything! Please, immortal, spare my life!"
Ning Lu slowly turned around, using the bright moonlight to clearly see the girl's appearance and figure.
The girl was wearing a wolf-skin garment, her skin was fair and delicate, with short, dark hair, a pair of watery eyes, a high nose, and a pair of rosy cherry lips. Even with tears in her eyes, she looked particularly touching, every glance and frown able to stir a person's heartstrings.
"She really has a beautiful appearance!" The young man said, a smile curving at the corner of his mouth as he looked at the beautiful girl before him.
Hearing this, the girl seemed to have grasped a lifeline, immediately kneeling and kowtowing repeatedly, pleading, "Please, sir, spare my life! I am willing to offer my body to you!"
The fear of death spread through the girl's heart, causing her to disregard all sense of propriety and shame, her heart filled only with a desire for life.
"Hahaha..."
Ning Lu burst into laughter, his voice echoing through the empty and silent deep mountain forest, seeming particularly eerie.
Seeing Ning Lu's reaction, the girl hurriedly crawled to the young man's feet, grabbing his leg as if she were holding onto her lifeline.
"But, only the dead can keep secrets!"
A faint blue light flashed in the young man's hand, and a sharp stone rose from the ground, starting from the girl's neck, then to her jaw, and finally to the crown of her head, instantly piercing through with this tiny stone.
Blood soared into the sky, staining the young man's yellow robe with blood, and a warmth rushed over, the scalding blood splashing on the young man's face, but the young man remained unmoved.
The girl's body fell heavily to the ground, her pair of moving eyes widened, staring incredulously at the young man before her, dying with lingering grievances!
The bright moonlight shone down, the girl's half of her face covered in blood, appearing particularly gruesome, while the other half remained as good as ever, looking particularly moving under the moonlight, like a rose about to wither.
"Just a pink skeleton, bones and flesh." Ning Lu sneered, took out the scarlet Primordial Ancient Cauldron, and also took the girl's body into it.
The girl's attire of wolf-skin clothing clearly indicated that she was the daughter of a hunter from a nearby mountain, so Ning Lu had no scruples about killing this time.
Taking advantage of the night, the young man sat alone cross-legged in the silent deep mountain forest, with a jar of fragrant Green Bamboo Wine next to him, his figure moving at will, directly escaping into the space of the Primordial Ancient Cauldron.
The endless brilliant stars, the dazzling Milky Way pouring down for thousands of miles, and the faint blue spiritual energy permeating the air, this scene like a fairyland once again reflected in the young man's eyes.
Ning Lu saw a huge scarlet furnace in front of him constantly burning, with crimson flames burning beneath the furnace, ceaselessly.
The young man's eyes were bright, and he silently muttered, looking forward to the results of this burning.
"Last time, Ning Dahan, a mere mortal, greatly benefited my cultivation after being burned. This time, two cultivators and one mortal, how much help will they provide to my cultivation?"
