I’m Too Strong To Be Immortal
Chapter 27 Bronze Box
The moonlight reflected on the river, and the breeze was blowing, sparkling.
The dark blue ship was speeding on the river, and the fluorescent light flowing between the runes was more eye-catching in the night.
At this time, in the bottom cargo hold, among the many messy goods, a bronze box full of patina was inscribed with strange patterns, and the patterns were intertwined, forming a vague grimace.
This patterned grimace opened its mouth wide, as if it had a peculiar magic power that would devour the soul of those who stared at it.
The bronze box shook slightly.
Slam, the box fell off the pile of goods and rolled over several times and stood on the ground.
A puff of grey smoke floated out of the grimace's wide-open mouth.
A suffocating gloomy laughter sounded in the silent cargo hold.
"Jie Jie Jie..."
"Soul...time...node...sacrifice, open..."
The unknown language and vague words seemed to cross the world with difficulty and came out from the bronze box.
The gray smoke hovered, like invisible and intangible, passing through the hull of the ship, the magic circle barrier, and constantly approaching the area where the passengers were.
Gray smoke crept into a guest room, and the monk inside was unaware, still sitting cross-legged on the ground carrying the true essence to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He circled around the monk, and suddenly slammed into the monk's mind.
This cultivator is only in the real yuan realm, which is two big realms away from the spiritual stage realm that involves soul cultivation. Although his soul is much stronger than ordinary people, there is no essential difference.
It is still weak and powerless, especially in the face of an attack on the soul such as gray smoke, there is no resistance.
The gray smoke easily devoured the cultivator's soul. The cultivator looked unscathed on the outside, but there was only a body left, which was completely dead.
The gray smoke came out of my mind, circled around, and drilled down to the next room.
Whether it is a monk, a mortal, a passenger or a crew member, the gray smoke will not refuse anyone who comes. As long as it encounters it, it will devour its soul until it has swallowed more than 100 people. The gray smoke seems to have reached its limit and began to drill into the cargo hold.
Faces appeared on the continuously rolling gray smoke, all of them were people whose souls had just been devoured, with ferocious expressions, anger, pain, unwillingness, fear...
Full of evil negativity.
The grey smoke returned to the cargo hold and burrowed into the bronze box. The bronze box emitted a faint light, and some of the patterns on it seemed to come alive and twisted slightly.
"Jie Jie Jie..."
There was another eerie laughter from the silent cargo hold.
...
The next morning.
A harsh scream broke the blue sky's former silence.
There was a knock on the door, and a staff member came in.
"What happened?"
"Routine inspection!" After saying that, he left in a hurry, knocking on the next door.
Bai Donglin, who had just finished the morning exercise, frowned slightly. They had sailed on the Nujiang River for five days, and there were no accidents during these five days.
He just wanted to spend these 18 days safely and arrive at the Bian Erqi Domain as soon as possible, and he didn't want any unexpected twists and turns.
Unfortunately, it seems that backfired, or something happened. Open the door, call Liu Dafu and Zi Xiaoling, and walk to the deck where the noise occurred.
At this time, the deck was already crowded with people, and uniformed staff were maintaining order. Bai Donglin saw that the captain, Wang Lufei, was also in the crowd.
It seemed that something really happened, and even the captain was alarmed.
As the three approached, they heard the captain asking questions.
"Are these corpses found in District C? Who was the first to discover the corpses?"
"Captain, ninety-three corpses were found in District C, and the remaining twenty-four bodies were found in District B-3, which was next to District C. The first person to find the bodies was Zhang Ergou from the back kitchen.
He asked his roommate to get up to prepare breakfast, only to find that his roommate's body was cold. "
"After receiving the report, we have checked the whole ship and found a total of 117 dead bodies. The cause of death is unknown!"
"Did anyone hear anything last night?"
"I have asked the tenants around the deceased, and they all said no, and even those in the same bedroom did not hear any movement, as if these people died of natural causes."
The captain snorted coldly when he heard the words. There were only 3,000 people on the whole ship. Can more than 100 people die naturally at the same time? The possibility of food poisoning was also ruled out, and the concentration of the dead was clearly artificial.
As a cultivator of the Great Perfection of the Divine Bridge Realm, he naturally has many means.
Run the heart method, silently recite the magic formula.
"Eye of the Void! Open!"
With a light drink, the captain's pupils turned into golden color, and an inch of golden light appeared. He carefully observed a corpse from top to bottom, and finally stared at the corpse's forehead.
The captain stopped the trick, his eyes returned to normal, but his face became more and more solemn.
The soul was swallowed up completely. After death, the soul dissipated between heaven and earth, and the true spirit returned to the mother river.
Even so, there will still be some soul breath left in the corpse, even soul fragments.
And these corpses are empty inside, this is definitely not a natural dissipation, it is attacked by means of targeting the soul.
Is it a master above the Lingtai realm? Or ghosts and monsters? Or an evil cultivator cultivating strange secret techniques?
No matter what the situation is, it is not optimistic. He can kill 117 people silently overnight, and his strength is definitely higher than him.
The captain paced back and forth, thinking about what to do, the Canglan still had 13 days to reach the Silver Snake Pier, and the distance was too far to count on the support of the pier.
We only need to do a few more preparations, don't be careless, there are many monks on the ship with a good background, if there is an accident, I am afraid that I will not be able to live!
Wang Lufei immediately ordered the left and right: "Keep all the corpses properly and put them in the freezer. Disperse the crowd and tell the passengers to stay in their rooms."
"Order the crew to return to their respective posts and not discuss this matter."
"Yes!"
The left and right deputies led the way and retreated.
The captain took out two thousand-mile sound transmission notes and sent in a message for help. The talisman spontaneously ignited, turning into two white lights, one from the south and one from the north, and disappeared instantly.
After doing this, he called several captains of the escort into the captain's room to discuss the night patrol carefully.
The three Bai Donglin watched everything in their eyes not far away, Liu Dafu had a solemn face, Bai Donglin was expressionless, Zi Xiaoling was still eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake with a bulging mouth. , like a squirrel.
"Brother Liu, what do you think?" Bai Donglin took the initiative to ask when he saw his solemn expression.
"Brother Bai, there must be something about this... ahem, I mean we might be in trouble."
"Being able to kill so many people silently on the boat of so many monks, I still know a few of them. They are all masters of the Primordial Embryo Realm, but they died no different from ordinary people."
"Also, this kind of indiscriminate killing may not be done by normal monks!"
Bai Donglin's expression changed, as if he had thought of something.
"You mean..."
"Yes, this is very similar to the style of demons and ghosts, and it may be the most troublesome kind."
Liu Dafu narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking of some unpleasant experience.
Although Bai Donglin didn't come into contact with many monsters, ghosts, and monsters, he knew a truth. Everything has a cause and a result, but monsters, ghosts, and monsters are not included in this list. The purpose of their existence is only to kill and destroy.
This kind of indiscriminate killing, and in such a strange way, is indeed the behavior of demons and ghosts.
Unscrupulous, powerful, bizarre attack, full of hatred for any life.
If you guessed correctly, then everyone on the Canglan has indeed encountered a lot of trouble, and they will die if they are not careful!
"Brother Bai, from today onwards, the three of us will live in the same room? It's better to take care of each other."
Liu Dafu asked a little embarrassedly, Bai Donglin is powerful, and it is much safer to stay with him, not only himself, but he is also afraid that he will not be able to protect Zi Xiaoling.
"That's fine too."
Bai Donglin nodded and agreed, of course he was not afraid of death, but after spending so long with Liu Dafu, he still had some feelings, and helping one or two was just a small effort.
As for whether Zi Xiaoling would care.
After all, this is a special period, and my monks should be informal.
"Hmm~ Osmanthus cake is really fragrant! It's delicious!"
