Killing God - Chapter 265

Chapter 265 Cremation
In the Grandmist Pharmacopoeia promulgated by the Divine Immortal Society, The Profound Flame Fruit was a rare third-grade spirit herb. It was pure Yang spirit and had the miraculous effect of removing Yin and removing poison. It was a precious spirit herb with a wide range of uses. Because of its detoxifying properties, it was chosen as the main ingredient by many detoxifying spirit pills. Its market value was extremely high. In terms of price, it could be ranked in the top five among all third-grade spirit herbs.

Among the several types of spirit herbs that Shen Shi had mentioned before, almost all of them were first-grade and second-grade spirit herbs. Only the Profound Flame Fruit was third-grade spirit herbs and had the strongest antidote. However, this kind of spirit herb was indeed very rare, so Shen Shi originally did not have much hope for it. Unexpectedly, Little Hei gave him a big surprise.

At this moment, Shen Shi didn’t hesitate. He directly grabbed the Profound Flame Fruit and plucked the fruit. One hand opened Little Hei’s mouth, and the other hand forcefully crushed the flame-like fruit. Several streams of clear juice immediately flowed out. When they touched the skin on Shen Shi’s hand, there was actually a burning pain.

Shen Shi frowned slightly. However, he knew that this was a special juice from the Profound Flame Fruit itself, Therefore, he didn’t move his wrist at all. He first dripped all of the juice into Xiao Hei’s mouth. After a moment of hesitation, he forcefully rubbed the remaining fruit into Xiao Hei’s mouth. Xiao Hei’s throat moved slightly. It seemed that it was somewhat strenuous, but he still managed to swallow the Xuan Yan Fruit with difficulty.

Actually, this method of consuming the Profound Flame Fruit was too simple and crude. It couldn’t be considered a good method. If it was placed in the hands of a true high-grade alchemist, it would be refined and refined, and supplemented with various pill formulas and supplements that had matured long ago to maximize the medicinal effects. In terms of medicinal effects, the detoxification spiritual pill refined like this would at least be four to five times more effective than eating the Profound Flame Fruit in this lifetime. In fact, this was also the fundamental significance of pill refining, A mature and high-grade alchemist could concoct miraculous pills with astonishing medicinal effects. It was extremely beneficial to cultivators’ cultivation. At the same time, some of the same medicinal herbs were refined into pills by alchemists. The value of these pills would also double, and sometimes even reach an astonishing level of more than a dozen times.

Of course, Shen Shi was also clear about the path of this. However, the current situation was critical. Little Black’s life was hanging by a thread. He couldn’t care less about it. He could only let Little Black consume the Profound Flame Fruit while praying in his heart that this strange fruit spirit herb could remove the poison it contained.

After eating the fruit, But Little Hei didn’t seem to have changed much, It was still as if his breath was gushing like strands of silk, as if he would die at any moment. Shen Shi only felt his heart beating faster and faster, but he also understood that no matter how powerful this medicine was, it would take a while for it to take effect. Therefore, he could only kneel beside Little Hei and watch it unwaveringly, waiting for the miracle he was looking forward to.

Time seemed to pass very slowly, very slowly …

Anxiety was torturing his heart like a burning fireball. It was unknown how long it had been like this, but Shen Shi suddenly saw Little Hei’s front foot twitch slightly.

Although this action was tiny, it was Little Hei’s only action during this period of time. Shen Shi’s heart skipped a beat. He was surprised and suspicious, but he suddenly discovered that the black blood that had been oozing out of Little Hei’s face, mouth, nose, and eyes had slowly stopped.

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, and then a burst of joy surged into his heart. His eyes also lit up. Obviously, this was a sign that the Profound Flame Fruit was effective in repelling the poison. Although Little Hei did not look too good, it was clear that the Profound Flame Fruit was still effective against the poison it was exposed to.

Under Shen Shi’s joyful and expectant gaze, As time went by, the effects of the Profound Flame Fruit gradually revealed itself. Xiao Hei’s breathing began to intensify, and the small movements that occasionally occurred also increased in strength. Moreover, it was obvious that its spirit had begun to improve. Later, it could even slightly raise its head, as if it was listening to something.

Shen Shi gently stretched out his hand and touched its head. Little Hei lay quietly, his head slightly rubbing against his palm, as if he was familiar with it in the past.

About two hours later, Little Hei, who had been lying quietly, suddenly trembled and jumped up from the ground. Shen Shi was shocked. He then stood up and was about to pacify it when he saw Little Hei suddenly spit out a large mouthful of black blood, followed by another mouthful. As a result, five times in a row, the black blood spat out was as thick as ink and had a strange smell as rotting stink.

After spitting out the black blood, Little Hei shook his body a few times and took a few steps back, tilting down as if his entire body had lost its strength. Shen Shi was quick-witted. He hugged it, He walked to the nearby clean forest and sat down. When he looked closely at Little Hei, he discovered that although it looked exhausted, after spitting out all the black blood, its expression suddenly changed. The originally dispirited expression also disappeared. Most importantly, after this moment, Little Hei’s eyes, which had been soaked in black blood like ink, slowly opened again.

The darkness quietly dissipated.

The world is bright again.

One plant and one tree, the mountain forest returned to his sight. Of course, there was also that familiar face that was smiling.

The little black pig looked at Shen Shi. The little pig’s head looked left and right for a few times and then let out a low snort.

Shen Shi laughed. He was gratified and happy. He gently patted its head with his hand, took a deep breath, and then said softly, “Alright, it’s fine.”

Xiao Hei lay quietly beside Shen Shi. The little black pig snuggled up to him and quickly fell into a deep sleep. Perhaps it was because it was too tired, or because it was exhausted from many days of adventures. Only at this moment did the little black pig finally feel completely at ease. It seemed that only by Shen Shi’s side could it truly not care about any dangers and just sleep peacefully.

In his sleep, it seemed as if it would reveal a trace of a happy smile.

So dusk, so evening, so the sky darkened and stars, bright starlight fell to the world, the mountain breeze slowly blowing pig’s dream. It just sleeps happily and peacefully, until the night passes, until dawn, until dawn falls, until the new day begins again.

It wakes up from its dreams, He opened his eyes and looked beside him. There were grass, trees, winds, mountains, and its owner. It stood up, shook its body, moved for a moment, ran back and forth for two steps, and jumped for a while. Then, it let out a humph. It was like a new spirit pig. In the blink of an eye, it suddenly had another spiritual herb in its mouth, and then chewed happily.

What a beautiful day it looks like!

Shen Shi was also in a good mood. He retrieved the lost Little Hei and pulled it back from the gates of hell, This gratification was truly indescribable. Even when he recalled yesterday’s scene, there was a faint fear in the depths of his heart. As long as he came a step late or did not have the Profound Flame Fruit, he was afraid that the situation before him would be another unacceptable one.

However, after gratification, there were still some things that were not pleasant, but they had to be done.

The corpses of wild boars, which were covered in horrible corpses, were all pulled into an open space. The stench of black blood soaked large areas of the land. The weeds, thorns, and trees that once grew on the soil would quickly wither and die. After that, they would not be able to grow a single blade of grass for many years.

The wild boar’s carcass was piled up like a hill, These wild boars, who had changed their fate in this short period of time, chased after a black pig king. They had changed the fate of their ancestors who had been oppressed, slaughtered, and hunted. They stood proudly in this forest, chasing away all the wild boars that had become the king of this mountain forest. At this moment, they had already lost their lives.

Shen Shi silently piled up the corpses of wild boars one by one. Occasionally, he would look back at Little Hei, and then he would go to the nearby forest to cut down many branches and firewood, piling them beside the corpses of wild boars.

Throughout this process, Little Hei stood quietly on the top of the boulder on the hillside, his favourite spot, looking down at the dead wild boars. The mountain breeze blew over its body with a hint of coldness. It did not roar, nor roar, nor was it angry, nor did it show any more. It just stood there quietly, quietly watching everything below.

Is everything like a dream?

A beautiful but awakening dream.

Just like all the beautiful things in the human world, they were as fragile as flowers and moons. In the blink of an eye, it was the time when one woke up from their dreams.

Shen Shi threw down the last handful of firewood and stood up. Then, he turned around to look at the big rock once more. Xiao Hei seemed to know something. His body seemed to tremble slightly, but he was still standing quietly on the tall rock, motionless.

Shen Shi gently sighed. He raised his right hand. Suddenly, a blurry image appeared in the air around his palm. A moment later, a burning ring of fire surrounded his arm and slowly appeared.

Five Elements Technique-Berserk Flame Technique.

Then he waved his arm, The ring of fire suddenly scattered into the air. It turned into dozens of fireballs that burned in the wind, Then, they landed in different directions. In the middle of the wooden branches and leaves that surrounded the wild boar corpses, dozens of fires immediately lit up at the same time. The fires quickly ignited and formed a huge fire, annihilating the wild boar corpses like small hills and burning them.

The flames lit up the surroundings, Let the nearer vegetation begin to scorch and wither, At the same time, Shen Shi’s face reddened. He took a few steps back. After thinking for a while, he walked over and dragged the corpses of the three Mountain Bear Hall cultivators over. He directly threw them into the big fire. After leaving behind the spirit crystals, he also threw everything that belonged to them, including the small bag of holding, into the sea of fire.

The flame tongue wriggled crazily, devouring everything. Shen Shi narrowed his eyes slightly for a moment, then turned around and walked back to the big rock.

Little Hei was still standing there. Apart from silence, he was still silent. Shen Shi stared at it for a long time, but he sighed slightly. He turned his head and did not say anything else. He sat quietly with it and looked at the fire on the hillside.

This flame started to weaken from dawn until noon. When all the corpses turned into black earth, it was as if the past had been annihilated.

Little Hei slowly lowered his head, as if he was recalling something, and seemed to be quietly whispering. Then, he turned around, walked to Shen Shi’s side, and raised his head to look at him.

His gaze was gentle and dependable.

Shen Shi patted his butt and stood up. He touched Little Hei’s head and said softly,

“Let’s go home.”

④

As they descended the mountain, Neither a man nor a pig spoke, They walked quietly through the forest, It seemed that the fire just now was still burning in front of them. However, when Shen Shi was about to walk out of the forest somewhere, Little Hei bit the hem of his shirt and trousers and softly shouted at him twice, as if indicating for Shen Shi to follow it. Then, he walked in another direction.

At the edge of the dense forest in front of him stood another towering mountain peak. A few roars of beasts from unknown places could be faintly heard from the depths of the mountain range.
