Killing God - Chapter 163
Chapter 163 Drunken Flower Condor
Qian Yi looked at Shen Shi, his eyes filled with ridicule. He sneered and said, “A trash at the Qi Refining Realm, do you dare to show off your might in front of me?” As he spoke, his gaze swept past the corpses of the old white monkey and stone pig that were lying on the side. With a howl, he made an expression of sudden enlightenment and said in surprise, “Ah, are you attacking because of the remnants of the demon race? Tsk tsk, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were their friend when I killed them just now.”
‘”Otherwise” Qian Yi stared at Shen Shi with a murderous look in his eyes. “I will bring them to you and personally kill them for you. I will let you know the feeling that you can only witness when your loved ones are killed, but you can’t do anything about it!”
Shen Shi clenched his teeth and stared fixedly at the man in front of him. He slowly lowered his hands and silently took out two magical symbols made of animal skin from his cloth bag at his waist.
At the critical moment of life and death, before the battle, although he was furious in his heart, he still clenched his teeth and endured it forcefully. The last bit of reason reminded him that Qian Yi was probably the strongest enemy he would face since he started cultivating.
An Origin Condensation Realm cultivator.
For a human cultivator who had opened up the Pill Field Jade Manor and had truly broken through the threshold of cultivation, countless past examples had already proved that he was an overwhelming opponent for someone who was still at the initial stage of Qi Refining. In the human cultivation world, Every time he lacked a great realm, The difference in strength was extremely large. Under normal circumstances, there was practically no chance of winning across borders. Unless the weaker side had a great opportunity or unimaginable fortune, possessing some heavenly treasures or peerless immortal weapons that only existed in legends, it might have a slight chance of winning.
However, with such great fortune, how many people would there be in this world?
Most importantly, all peerless Immortal Weapons, spirit artifacts, and magic treasures required sufficient basic Spiritual Energy to drive them. And this basic Spiritual Energy was the threshold of the Origin Condensation Realm. If you don’t reach the Origin Condensation Realm, even if you have great fortune to obtain a peerless Immortal Armament magic treasure, you can only sit on a treasure mountain and not use it. You can only wait for death.
But now, Shen Shi was facing such a terrible death situation. This was already an endless battle situation, but he was a great realm lower than the enemy. And because of the three years of delay in the Demon Realm, he was still stuck outside the threshold of the Origin Condensation Realm. Even if he was only one step away, he could cross it.
One step, one small step, that’s all.
However, the reality was so cruel. He was still lingering outside the Origin Condensation Realm. The Qian Yi in front of him looked fierce and full of contempt. His expression was relaxed, and his gaze towards Shen Shi was filled with mockery and condescension.
In all respects, Qian Yi couldn’t see the possibility of him failing. All he had to do was to kill this scum who dared to befriend the rest of Demon race in this deserted forest for no reason. Not only did he have to kill him, he also had to suffer before he died. In the end, he had to retreat as if he had never been here in the future.
He laughed sinisterly and walked towards Shen Shi.
A bolt of lightning lit up in the sky. Thunder rumbled and the first drop of rain fell from the sky.
④
Bloodlines appeared in Shen Shi’s eyes as he stared at Qian Yi’s approaching figure. His hands were hidden in his sleeves. There were two voodoo symbols between his fingers. His expression was expressionless, but it was as if he was experiencing a storm in his heart. In that moment, countless thoughts had already crossed his mind.
What should we do?
How could a cultivator at the Origin Condensation Realm defeat him?
The power of a Tier 1 Five Elements Spell was too small. Back when he was cultivating, countless people had told him that he couldn’t harm the Origin Condensation Realm cultivator’s powerful physical body at all. However, apart from this, what else did he have?
“Sand, sand” It was the sound of rainwater falling on the branches and leaves. The forest grew dimmer and dimmer, even though it was daytime, as if it was late at night.
“Sand, sand” That was the sound of Qian Yi walking over with a sinister smile. He was like a savage beast, staring at the prey in front of him, and even licked the blood droplets at the corner of his mouth with his tongue.
In a trance, Shen Shi seemed to have seen the shadow of the demon general, the Blood Wolf, from this person.
Blood Wolf!
Suddenly, Shen Shi’s heart contracted. Suddenly, he remembered the passageway in the secret room in the abdomen of the mountain. He and the Blood Wolf’s lightning-fast and urgent battle technique recalled that when he used the Earth Settling Technique, the Blood Wolf’s body had actually slowed down for at least three breaths of time. Under his fireball technique and water archery technique, the Blood Wolf’s powerful body had also shown signs of scorching, freezing, and even flesh blooming.
That was a demon general who possessed the green blood divine ability, and that was a blood wolf who had cultivated to the Flood Demon realm at least. Although the two races were different, according to the ancient saying, perhaps, at least, it was similar to the Origin Condensation Realm of the human race?
Shen Shi’s breathing became a little anxious. It was unknown if it was because of his rage or nervousness in his heart, but Qian Yi still walked over with a sinister smile. His killing intent was overflowing. In this dark forest, he was like a ghost that captured souls and seized lives.
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two of them was less than 20 feet. Qian Yi saw that Shen Shi seemed to be frightened silly. He was still standing there motionlessly. His mocking intent was even heavier. He raised his head and took a step forward, wanting to knock this ant trash to the ground. Then, he thought about how to torture and kill him. He couldn’t let him die too easily.
However, right at this moment, Shen Shi suddenly pounced to the side. He suddenly rushed behind a large tree in the dense forest. As soon as he moved, Qian Yi noticed that he couldn’t move and immediately rushed over.
His cultivation was already at the Origin Condensation Realm, and his physical strength and agility were far superior to others, and he was also much stronger than the Shen Shi in front of him. But in front of him, trees were everywhere in the forest. The sudden heavy rain made the forest wet and dim. His line of sight was much weaker than usual. Even though his speed was extremely fast, he was almost unable to catch Shen Shi in the blink of an eye when he arrived at the place where Shen Shi had just stood. He rushed into the dark forest and was about to disappear in the blink of an eye.
However, Yuan Condensation Realm cultivators were different from Qi Condensation Realm cultivators. Apart from their physical bodies being much stronger, their spiritual senses were also far superior to mortals. Qian Yi threw himself into the air and immediately chased after Shen Shi. At the same time, his spiritual senses spread out. Very quickly, he felt the figure in front of him fleeing in a hurry. After a sinister laugh, he chased after him.
The wind blew harder and harder, and the branches and leaves on the treetops swayed endlessly. It was like a howling ghost silhouette staring coldly at the human world in the darkness.
The rain gradually became heavy.
④
In the dim forest, the eyes of the tree shadow were like countless demons in the darkness, swaying in the wind and rain. Rain fell from the sky, violently washing away this bloody forest.
Qian Yi tightly locked onto the escaping figure in front of him. Although the shadow of the tree and the dim light, including the rain falling from the sky, allowed him to only see the blurry figure fleeing in front of him by chance, his perception told him that the fellow in front of him could not escape. In a short while, it would definitely be the undead in his hand.
“Run, run, run faster, just see if you can escape from my hands.” He even had some interest and laughed sinisterly, “Run, run, run faster, just see if you can escape from my hands.”
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky like a sharp sword piercing through thick clouds, illuminating the forest on the ground.
Using this moment of light, Qian Yi saw the figure fleeing in front of him suddenly stumble, as if he had tripped over a stone in his hasty escape. Qian Yi couldn’t help but laugh out loud. His expression was filled with contempt and cruelty. For some reason, when he saw Shen Shi desperately flee, he felt indescribably happy in his heart. It was as if he was playing cat and mouse and was at my mercy.
“Run, run, run faster … Hahahaha …” His smile carried a chilling madness, echoing in the dark forest, but his footsteps were still chasing after Shen Shi, not relaxing for a moment.
However, at this moment, Qian Yi suddenly felt that the darkness in front of him had become much denser. A strange feeling surged in his heart. However, what did a Yuan Condensation Realm cultivator need to worry about when facing a Qi Condensation Realm trash?
This thought flashed through his mind, and without the slightest hesitation, he rushed forward.
The darkness in the shadows greeted his body as if it had turned into a ball of black gas and landed on his left chest.
Magic-Skin Eclipse.
The clothes on his chest instantly burst open a small hole. At the same time, Qian Yi also felt that there was a sudden feeling of emptiness and numbness in his skin. This kind of feeling caused him to frown and his feet to pause slightly. However, in the blink of an eye, this strange feeling dissipated. From beginning to end, it seemed that it had only existed for two or three breaths of time.
“Five Elements Technique?” Qian Yi laughed out loud with an indescribable sense of contempt. Thinking about it, it was also true. These Qi Refining Realm cultivators had yet to complete their dantian, so they were simply unable to cultivate any divine passage techniques, nor could they use all sorts of spirit artifacts and magic treasures. Apart from these pitifully weak First Grade Five Elements magic techniques, what other protective techniques could they possess?
However, in front of an Origin Condensation Realm cultivator, a Tier 1 Five Elements Technique was nothing but a joke.
The figure in front of him ran with all his might in panic. He seemed to be trying his best to draw some distance between the dim light and the dense trees. However, in Qian Yi’s eyes, it was doomed to be futile. He didn’t even bother to use his own spirit sword. To use the spirit sword passed down by the sect against such a trash was simply a waste of his spirit power.
Although that unknown technique was something Qian Yi had never seen before, It seemed to be a bit strange. Perhaps it was a Five Elements technique that was more biased. After all, this path of carving insects had been passed down for thousands of years, and there were always some things that he didn’t know. But most importantly, this low-level spell was useless against a Condensation Realm cultivator like him. What was that little itch?
Qian Yi no longer had any scruples as he strode after him.
The figure in front of him seemed to have waved his arm once more. In the dim forest, the wind and rain mixed together, and darkness pounced on his face.
Qian Yi charged forward proudly, completely ignoring this trivial technique. A ball of black gas that was even denser than before collided in front of him, then dissipated into the wind and rain.
It was a slight pain that came from his chest. However, just like before, this feeling quickly disappeared. However, the pain seemed to be a little deeper than before.
Qian Yi scoffed. He didn’t even look and chased after Shen Shi. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Shen Shi who was running away, Shen Shi cast five or six similar strange spells in a row. Qian Yi blocked them with his fleshly body as if nothing had happened. The strength of a Condensing Yuan Realm cultivator’s fleshly body was indeed worthy of his reputation.
Just as they were chasing after each other, Qian Yi pulled the distance between them to less than ten zhang, and was about to capture this greasy boy with ease, Qian Yi suddenly felt a burst of depression in his chest, and at the same time, a trace of intense pain came from his chest.
Qian Yi frowned and lowered his head to take a look. He saw that the skin and flesh on his chest was somewhat black and even had a strange mold-like dark green color. The flesh and skin around him also began to rot, and blood slowly oozed out. This time, Qian Yi was enraged. He raised his head and shouted angrily, “You stinking brat who doesn’t know death actually dares to use poison!”
Spells-Decay Spells.
Magic Blood Poison.
Just as Qian Yi roared angrily and was about to stop being polite to Shen Shi, a flame suddenly lit up in the dark forest ahead and a fireball rushed towards him.
In the wind and rain, the fireball drew a bright light in midair. Around it, the wind blew and the rain drenched, instantly becoming the most conspicuous existence in the darkness
This time, Qian Yi recognized the spell. This was clearly the most popular of the Five Elements spell. Everyone in the cultivation world knew about it, but what was the use of such a First Grade Five Elements spell for an Origin Condensation Realm cultivator like him? Although the fireball that flew over seemed to be slightly bigger than the fireball he had seen in the past.
“I know quite a few spells.” With a mocking tone, Qian Yi sneered and waved his hand, as if he was trying to get rid of something annoying or chase away annoying bugs, intending to block the fireball to the side.
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, the incoming fireball hit his arm.
Qian Yi’s body trembled as he felt a powerful force surge out of the fireball. He couldn’t help but take a step back, and at the same time, his arm felt a burst of burning pain.
This time, Qian Yi’s expression finally changed. He faintly felt that something was amiss. He lowered his head, only to see his sleeves tattered and his exposed flesh scorched black.
Qian Yi’s heart trembled. At the same time, he was also shocked beyond belief. When did these ordinary Tier 1 Five Elements Techniques actually cause harm to Origin Condensation Realm cultivators?
In the past tens of thousands of years, the Five Elements Technique suppressed by one’s cultivation realm was completely useless. Wasn’t it common knowledge that everyone in the cultivation world knew? What’s going on today?
He suddenly raised his head and stared ahead, only to discover that the figure that had been running had stopped at some unknown time. In this storm, in this darkness, he looked coldly at him like the darkest and most vicious ghost.
Then, Shen Shi waved his hands.
The wind and rain howled, the darkness dancing wildly, yet another thunderclap exploded in the sky!
④
Dang! With a clear cry, a bright light shone, blocking Qian Yi’s path. It was his spiritual sword. At this moment, his expression finally became more serious. The young man in front of him was truly strange, especially the spells he used. It was truly unheard of for him to be able to cause harm to a cultivator at the Origin Condensation Realm.
A flash of fire suddenly lit up again, and another fireball spell rushed over.
With Qian Yi’s sword incantation, a bright light flashed across the spirit sword and slashed down, instantly extinguishing the fireball. In front of the Origin Condensation Realm cultivator’s magic treasure spirit artifact, a mere First Grade Five Elements spell, even though it was slightly more powerful, was still like a mantis blocking a carriage. It was simply incomparable.
Qian Yi easily knocked the fireball away, and his heart immediately calmed down. He thought that in the end, a Qi Refining Realm trash was still like this. Moreover, these fellows used the Five Elements Spell. Because the Qi Sea Dantian had yet to be completed, their Spiritual Energy did not gather. Every time they cast a spell, the interval between spells was very long and the casting speed was quite slow. This was well known to all. Without hesitation, he laughed sinisterly, rubbed his body, and was about to slay this fellow who had caused him a lot of trouble by the sword.
However, at this moment, perhaps even he did not notice that he had inexplicably given up the idea of torturing Shen Shi to kill him. Instead, he subconsciously wanted to quickly kill this Qi Refining Realm cultivator.
However, just as he was about to take his first step, a yellow light suddenly descended. Qian Yi felt his body suddenly stop, and his footsteps instantly slowed down. It was as if there were ten thousand jin of boulders pressing down on his body, making it difficult for him to walk.
Earth Sinking Technique!
This was also an ordinary First Grade Five Elements spell. Even this spell itself did not have any damage. It could only slow down the enemy’s movements. However, at this moment, Qian Yi’s heart trembled greatly. It was actually even more powerful than when he had suffered those injuries before.
What was going on?
Qian Yi stared at the figure hiding in the darkness in front of him in shock. Didn’t the fireball spell just be cast? From the fireball spell to the earth sinking spell, it took at most a little more than a breath. Why? Why was this person’s casting speed so fast?
What exactly was going on?
The common sense of this world, especially the cultivation world, seemed to be overturned in Qian Yi’s heart. The strange phenomena in front of him made the faint sense of danger in his heart even more intense.
With a loud roar, he was about to rush over and directly kill this strange young man. As long as he rushed to a sufficient distance, then under the spirit sword, Shen Shi would definitely be unlucky.
But the earth sinking technique held him back, Qian Yi roared angrily, However, he only took a small step forward. However, he did not panic. This small matter was not enough for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator to despair. Moreover, with the power of those techniques, Qian Yi could estimate how long the numb sensation would take to work on his skin and flesh. This Earth Settling Technique could delay him for at most three breaths of time.
It was only three breaths. After three breaths, he could charge over and slash that fellow into two pieces with a single sword strike!
He roared, the corner of his eyes suddenly flashed, but he saw a sharp stream of water piercing through the sudden heavy wind and rain.
No, that’s not rain. That’s the water archery of the Five Elements Technique!
Moreover, this sharp water arrow was aimed at the softest eyes in his entire body.
Qian Yi shouted loudly and leaned back. He narrowly escaped this sinister and cunning water archery. In the next moment, his body suddenly loosened. The restrictions that the Earth Settling Technique placed on him, a Yuan Condensation Realm cultivator, were indeed limited. In the blink of an eye, three breaths of time had passed, and he had returned to his original agility and agility.
Qian Yi was overjoyed, and his figure instantly flew up. At the same time, the Spirit Sword had already activated Gao Fei and was about to pounce on Shen Shi.
But at this moment, a yellow light shone in Qian Yi’s astonished and unbelievable eyes.
Earth Sinking Technique!
His body instantly descended, landing heavily on the ground, once again falling into the state where he was under a tremendous pressure.
“Boom!”
A bolt of lightning pierced through the sky, illuminating the depths of the forest. The figure that had been hiding in the depths of the darkness took a step forward for the first time.
Shen Shi’s cold and solemn face, his face that was soaked by the rain, aside from being cold, there was nothing else.
He waved his hands, as if he would never stop. In the wind and rain, there was a strange and mysterious rhythm, as if he was harvesting the strange power of the world. Every time he waved his hand, a magical talisman was burned to ashes. Every time he waved his hand, a spell was cast.
Skin Corrosion, Decay, Earth Subsidence, Blood Poison, Fireball, Earth Subsidence, Water Arrow, Rock Needle, Earth Subsidence, Decay, Blood Poison, Earth Subsidence …
In the storm, he seemed to have merged into this storm world. Every wave of his hand seemed to stir up the heavens and earth, causing countless storms to fly beside him. It was as if countless ancient times had suddenly reappeared in this world.
Without the slightest pause, without a moment’s delay, all of his will instincts had completely merged into these spells. There were no gaps, and one spell after another rushed over like a storm, without any chance to catch his breath.
Black Qi roared and flames shone. Sharp, icy cold water arrows flew through the wind and rain. In the wind and rain, an Origin Condensation Realm cultivator suddenly became in such a sorry state in front of him.
Qian Yi roared repeatedly as he controlled his spirit sword to defend against this storm-like spell. However, the Five Elements Spell rushed over too quickly. One after another, although Qian Yi’s spirit sword was powerful, it was not long before its left and right branches were clumsy. It was completely unable to block this terrifying spell tide that could topple mountains and topple seas.
Perhaps he didn’t care about the damage done to him by a single spell. He could still withstand the damage caused by two spells, but what kind of terrifying scene was it when ten spells, twenty spells, or even more spells continuously flew at an unbelievable speed and frantically smashed into his fleshly body?
Qian Yi simply couldn’t figure out how this was done. How could a Qi Refining Realm cultivator have such a fast casting speed? Even if he had talismans, it was impossible for him to reach such a fast speed. Moreover, talismans were so precious and rare. Normally, a Qi Refining Realm cultivator only had one or two talismans. How could he use them so frequently and shockingly?
Scorched black and frozen spots began to slowly increase on his body. At his chest, the area where his skin and flesh rotted faster and faster. Blood seeped out from his dark green skin uncontrollably, and even the energy in his body seemed to be slowly being drained.
In the face of a powerful body that could be crushed by Qi Refining Realm cultivators, the Origin Condensation Realm cultivators were slowly beginning to collapse in a slow but incredibly resolute manner under the frenzied tide of spells that had suddenly descended upon them.
Has the world gone crazy?
What exactly was going on?
Qian Yi roared in his heart as his body started to tremble.
He clearly possessed a Dao Art that far surpassed his opponent’s, and as long as he had a chance to let the Spirit Sword slash through, he would be able to slash that person to death with a single slash! However, this opportunity had never appeared again after he had carelessly lost his first chance. Countless magical techniques flooded in without any gaps. Those unexpected powers were already enough to pose a great threat to him. He had no choice but to use his spiritual sword to defend against them with all his might.
However, this time, the defenses could no longer stop.
He was just an ordinary disciple under the Mysterious Sword Sect. He had cultivated to the elementary level of the Origin Condensation Realm and obtained a Spirit Sword by relying on his sect’s strong strength. Compared to a large number of loose cultivators and Qi Condensation Realm cultivators, Qian Yi was already a supreme figure. However, among Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, his strength was still not particularly strong.
However, when facing Shen Shi, he felt that he was strong enough.
He had never imagined that it would turn out to be in such a sorry state.
What would happen next? There was a faint fear in his heart. The cold and solemn gaze of the young man in front of him, filled with hatred, as well as the extremely strange technique that was flying all over the sky, made his heart feel a little weak.
This was the first time he had vaguely experienced the pain and fear of those weak at the critical moment of life and death. An inexplicable trace of regret even flashed through his heart. Perhaps, was it carelessness this time?
He suddenly roared and activated his spirit sword to block another sinister water arrow mixed in with the wind and rain. He turned around and ran towards the direction he came from.
Feng Ji Yu was about to go berserk, the heavens and earth seemed to be laughing wildly, laughing at this ant in the mortal world, laughing at the impermanence of this world.
Those who were easy to kill were often even more afraid of death.
In the wind and rain, Shen Shi’s face looked a little pale, and his breathing seemed a little hurried. However, his hands were still stable, and he was still waving at a suffocating rhythm, casting spells one after another. With a sea of spells that was almost like a storm that he had never seen in this world, he rushed towards Qian Yi.
Dong!
A low, muffled sound suddenly sounded from beneath Qian Yi’s feet, who had just taken two steps forward. The sound seemed to be somewhat familiar, and Qian Yi suddenly remembered what kind of sound it was from within the flint of lightning.
Rock Stab Technique!
A sharp stone edge suddenly pierced out from the ground. Under the cover of the wind and rain and in Qian Yi’s panicked state of mind, this Tier 1 Earth Element spell, which should not have been able to conceal any damage to Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, instantly pierced through Qian Yi’s calf.
Blood flew everywhere as Qian Yi let out a miserable scream and fell to the ground.
In the next moment, before he could react, a sharp water arrow pierced into his right eye from the pitch black shadow, mixed with endless wind and rain.
A heart-wrenching cry suddenly erupted from Qian Yi’s mouth. The terrifying pain that exceeded his endurance instantly crushed his will. It was dark in front of him, and it was no longer clear whether it was blood or rain. He just roared and rolled subconsciously, and when he thought of something, he felt a burst of scorching heat rushing towards his face.
Fireball!
The blazing fireball burned fiercely and smashed into his face with a boom!
At this moment, the Origin Condensation Realm cultivator’s formerly powerful physical body seemed to have finally reached its limit. At this moment, it completely collapsed.
Qian Yi’s face had already turned into a paste of flesh and blood. Even his body was sent flying. The spirit sword that was originally flying in the air also fell powerlessly to the ground, drowned by the dirty sewage.
Shen Shi still didn’t stop.
He walked forward step by step, casting spells one by one. The difference was that he did not use a control spell like the Earth Settling spell, but one after another attacking spell.
Fireball Technique, Water Arrow Technique, Rock Stab Technique, Blood Poison Technique, Decay Technique …
The spell rained down like rain, continuously smashing onto Qian Yi’s body, turning this Origin Condensation Realm cultivator into a living target. This was an inexplicably frightening and frightening spell frenzy. In thousands of years, no one had ever manipulated the Five Elements Spell in such a manner.
Under this crazy tide of spells, Qian Yi, who had been tortured countless times by countless spells, was struck in almost every direction from head to toe. An Origin Condensation Realm cultivator who once looked down on Qi Refining Realm cultivators as trash ants cried out desperately, shouting, begging for mercy, cursing, crying. In the end, his voice slowly lowered and his body gradually stiffened.
When the last fireball technique landed on Qian Yi’s body, only to roll the body that was no longer recognizable, Shen Shi finally slowly put down his hands.
His body suddenly staggered, seemingly a little weak, but he quickly stopped. At this moment, his face was deathly pale, as if all the strength in his body had been exhausted. However, in this still raging storm, he still stubbornly stood there, slowly raising his head and looking up into the sky.
The rain fell on his face. The forest was dim, leaving behind only the rustling sound of the rain.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly let out a mournful roar towards the forest and the seemingly endless darkness.
“Ah …”
The voice echoed in the forest, echoed in the wind and rain, floating far, far away, but in the end floating in the empty world.
④
After an unknown amount of time, the storm finally came to a halt. The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, revealing some light again.
A drenched figure slowly walked back to the forest. The corpses of the Old Bai Monkey and the Stone Pig were still lying on the wet ground. The Little Hei Pig did not leave. Even in that storm, it was still guarding the two Demon race.
Seeing Shen Shi walk back, the little black pig curled up beside the already cold stone pig stood up, shook the water stains on its body, and lightly snorted at Shen Shi.
Shen Shi walked over and squatted down. He was speechless. He gently touched the little black pig’s head with his hand. The little black pig gently rubbed its head against his palm twice.
Shen Shi turned his head and looked at the Old Bai Monkey and the Stone Pig. He looked at the two of them who were chatting with him yesterday, but had now turned into two ice-cold corpses. He slowly sat down on the ground.
He looked at them like this and didn’t say anything else. He looked at them for a very long time until it was dark again. Only then did he feel as if he had awakened from his shock. His body trembled for a moment and he slowly stood up.
The corners of his eyes seemed to be slightly wet, but he gritted his teeth without shedding any tears. He began to dig in this clearing in the forest.
It wasn’t just humans who were buried in the ground for peace. There were also such ancient customs in Demon race.
In the three years of the Demon Realm, not only did he have these two friends, he also learned some other things.
This pit was very big, because there was more than one person lying inside. At this time, Little Hei Pig was also abnormally silent. He quietly lay on the side, looking at Shen Shi, looking at the pit, and occasionally looking at the already stiff Stone Pig and Old Bai Monkey. Then, he quietly lowered his head.
It was dark and late at night. Using the starlight above the sky, Shen Shi dug this pit and dragged the bodies of Old Bai Monkey and Stone Pig into it bit by bit.
He knelt on the edge of the pit, his hands full of wounds. Looking at the two blurry faces in the shadows of the pit, the darkness was like a deep iron curtain, separating him from them forever.
He gritted his teeth and lowered his head, but he couldn’t help but choke.
Tears blurred his eyes. He gritted his teeth and turned his head away, trembling his hands and pushing the soil down into the pit. Beside him, Pig Little Hei suddenly jumped over with some irritation and bit his sleeves.
Shen Shi’s movements slowed down for a moment, his voice trembling slightly as he softly choked, “They’re dead, Little Hei, they’re … dead.”
The little black pig hesitated for a moment before slowly letting go of its mouth.
Little by little, the soil fell from between his fingers, covering the two familiar bodies, as if covering the traces of their existence in this world.
When the pit was finally filled, and the slightly buried ground was revealed in front of him, Shen Shi’s body trembled and he sat down with his back against the graveyard.
The corner of his eyes rolled blankly, but he saw that the wine jar containing the flower carvings not far away was still lying by a large tree. Shen Shi silently reached out and carried the wine jar over, and discovered that there was actually a small portion of the wine left inside.
The strong and mellow smell of the wine did not change even after this stormy night.
Shen Shi hugged the wine jar and suddenly felt as if he had lost control. Large drops of tears couldn’t hold back any longer and rolled down his face. Then he suddenly raised his head, held the wine jar close to his mouth, and drank a large mouthful. The mellow and dense wine poured into his chest and stomach, as if he had unknowingly returned to the time not long ago when the old monkey drank greedily and happily.
He who drinks into sorrow is drunk.
Drunken, he turned around to look at the lonely grave.
With his back against the graveyard, Shen Shi’s hands loosened slightly, and the wine jar rolled down. After rolling a few times on the ground, there was no wine left.
Shen Shi suddenly laughed. Amidst his drunkenness, he seemed to be laughing happily, but it was also like an inexplicable and deep pain. He smiled and patted the graveyard beneath him. Then, in a low voice, he said softly, as if only he and the people in the graveyard could hear him.
“Good wine, old monkey.”
