Killing God - Chapter 380

Chapter 380 Jealousy

Seeing the two of them quickly leave, only Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu remained on the green meadow. Shen Shi shook his head and turned to look at Zhong Qingzhu. At this moment, she had also put away the spirit sword and was standing in the bush of grass. She also looked at Zhong Qingzhu.

Their gazes met. Zhong Qingzhu chuckled and said, “Thank you for your help.”

Shen Shi shook his head and smiled, “It’s just a small matter. What kind of friendship do we have?”

Zhong Qingzhu’s eyes lit up. He stared at Shen Shi for a moment. Shen Shi walked over to the tree and looked at the Red Buddha Ganoderma. Then, he turned to Zhong Qingzhu and smiled, “Qingzhu, quickly come and get it. Otherwise, if someone comes here again, it will be troublesome.”

Zhong Qingzhu was stunned for a moment. He turned around and walked to his side. However, he did not immediately take off the Red Buddha Ganoderma. Instead, the corner of his eyes slightly glanced at him, as if he was not sure of Shen Shi’s intentions. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, “But just now, you also contributed. According to the two people in front of you, why don’t we split the Red Buddha Ganoderma equally?”

Shen Shi smiled and waved his hand, “It’s not like we are strangers. Why are we so clear about each other? I was just afraid that you would be bullied by them just now. This trial is focused on the harvest. The Red Buddha Ganoderma is of extraordinary value. It’s worth more than a hundred stalks of ordinary Tier 1 or 2 Spirit Herbs. Hurry up and put it away.”

Zhong Qingzhu’s lips trembled slightly and he stared at Shen Shi blankly. His smile was bright and gentle. After many years, the outline between his eyebrows did not seem to have changed much. He was still the same young man from Bluefish Island.

The youth who had saved him and accompanied him in the darkness!

She suddenly lowered her head and turned around. It was as if she had lost her composure for an instant but was unwilling to be seen. At that moment, she was at a loss and her shoulders seemed to tremble slightly. After a while, Zhong Qingzhu seemed to have controlled his emotions and let out a breath. Then, without saying anything else, he squatted down and took off Red Buddha’s Ganoderma.

Seeing Zhong Qingzhu put the Red Buddha Ganoderma into his Ruyi bag, Shen Shi nodded and said, “It’s useless to stay here any longer. Let’s leave this place first.”

Zhong Qingzhu also had no objection. The two of them brought Little Hei along and walked all the way, bypassing the boulder and returning to the forest.

The ubiquitous purple-black soil still covered the mountain, After leaving the rare green grass behind him for a while, Shen Shi said to Zhong Qingzhu, “Qingzhu, I remember that when we entered the mountain yesterday, when we got off the floating immortal boat, you should be behind me. Why did we meet so quickly? Didn’t you walk straight into the mountains?”

Zhong Qingzhu remained silent for a moment, but he did not answer Shen Shi’s question directly. Instead, he looked at him curiously and asked, “Shi Tou, in the battle with those two people just now, I saw that your style of lifting weights was as light as lightness. Could it be that all of the techniques you used were the Five Elements Technique?”

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment. Of course, what he had used earlier was basically the Five Elements Spell Technique. However, there were also one or two spells mixed within. However, these strange spells had probably disappeared from the Primordial Chaos Cultivation World long ago, and it didn’t seem to be much different from the Five Elements Spell Technique. Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Shen Shi still smiled and nodded, saying, “Basically.”

Zhong Qingzhu nodded slightly and said, “The Hall of Arts is indeed worthy of being one of the seven great halls in Lingxiao Sect. Although it has looked depressed for many years, it is still not to be underestimated if we really want to teach talented people.”

Shen Shi laughed and said, “Are you praising me?”

Zhong Qingzhu also smiled. His gaze was like water as he looked at him and said, “Originally, I was confident that the two of them would win one-on-one. However, in a one-on-two situation, if I didn’t use the formations I learned, it would probably be a bit strenuous to fight with just my own cultivation.” Her bright eyes flickered as she stared at Shen Shi. She smiled and said, “But after you joined in helping me, one side was involved and the other side actually had the strength to help me. This ability is truly formidable. I think that other than you, any other person would not win so easily.”

Shen Shi smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to praise someone. I was a little fluttered by what you said.”

Zhong Qingzhu pursed his lips and smiled as he walked beside him. His smile was full, but it was very different from his usual calm expression. There was rare joy and cheerfulness in his expression.

④

Seeing another mountain path, As he was about to bypass the hill in front of him, Just as Shen Shi was about to ask Zhong Qingzhu how he was going to leave, or what his plans were, the two of them suddenly heard an extremely loud roar from the forest in front of them. The roar shook the mountains, and the mountains echoed. It sounded like the roar of a very ferocious demonic beast in rage.

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu exchanged a glance and frowned slightly. However, neither of their faces showed any intention of retreating. Instead, they quickened their pace and walked towards the dense forest.

The strange aura unique to the purple-black vampiric soil quickly spread over. Clearly, this forest was one of the places where the vampiric soil was hidden. The roar of the unknown ferocious demonic beast was still coming, but its voice was slightly deeper than before.

Standing outside the forest, Shen Shi pondered for a moment before asking Zhong Qingzhu in a low voice, “Can you tell what kind of demonic beast it is?”

Zhong Qingzhu thought about it carefully and shook his head. “I can’t tell, but from the looks of it, I’m afraid it won’t be a low-grade demonic beast.”

If a demonic beast’s grade was high, then most of its own demonic bodies would be valuable. Many places could be used as spiritual materials directly. If one was lucky, when they encountered a high-grade demonic beast that had formed a demonic core, that demonic core would be even more valuable. Back then, Shen Shi and Xiao Hei had killed an Iron Wolf King Spider in the Gao Ling Mountain Range and obtained a Demon Core. After obtaining the Divine Immortal Gathering, they had directly estimated it at several thousand spirit crystals. It was not too much to say that they had become rich overnight.

However, high-grade demonic beasts were naturally far more powerful than low-grade demonic beasts. The demonic beasts that condensed demonic cores had also reached a higher level. They were incomparably ferocious. Ordinary cultivators were extremely difficult to deal with, and even an accidental death was at stake. That day in the Gao Ling Mountain Range, Shen Shi was also lucky that the Iron Wolf King Spider had just swallowed an extremely strange bloodman, Hou Sheng. Furthermore, it had swallowed it without dying, causing a huge disturbance in its stomach. Shen Shi then attacked from outside and inside, killing the Fourth Grade Core Formation demonic beast.

So now standing outside the woods, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu both looked hesitant. Shen Shi was cautious. If he was alone, he might still have the heart to snoop around. However, with Zhong Qingzhu by his side, he felt that there was some risk. He said to her, “If there were high-grade demonic beasts inside, it would be very dangerous. Why don’t you stay here first? I’ll go in and see what kind of demonic beast it is before coming out to discuss with you.”

Zhong Qingzhu rolled his eyes. Looking at him, a gentle look flashed in his eyes. He shook his head slightly and was just about to speak when he suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from the forest. Immediately after, a slightly embarrassed figure staggered out of the depths of the forest and landed on the edge of the forest not far away from them.

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were both shocked. He turned around and looked. The man obviously didn’t expect two people to suddenly appear outside the forest. He was also shocked. He turned around and looked over. A moment later, he saw Zhong Qingzhu happy at first, but before he could smile, he saw Shen Shi standing beside Zhong Qingzhu. His expression immediately darkened again. Then, he shouted,

“Junior Sister Qingzhu, why are you here?”

Shen Shi also happened to know this man who came out of the forest. He was actually Ji Anfu, who he had met a few times before. He hadn’t expected that he would actually come to participate in the Hundred Mountain Realm Trial.

Zhong Qingzhu nodded at Ji Anfu. His expression was calm and he agreed. Shen Shi, on the other hand, was very thoughtful. He could see the changes in Ji Anfu’s expression after coming out of the forest. Seeing that Ji Anfu seemed to be ignoring him, his gaze fell on the beautiful Zhong Qingzhu. He laughed coldly in his heart.

Zhong Qingzhu looked up and down at Ji Anfu and said, “Senior Brother Ji, are there any high-grade demonic beasts in this forest? Why do you seem to have an unstable aura when you come out?”

Of course, such words as unstable aura were just courteous words to show some face. Ji Anfu staggered out in panic, obviously suffering a great loss. However, at this moment, his expression was calm. It seemed that nothing had happened in the forest. He nodded to Zhong Qingzhu and said, “Exactly. When I was searching this forest, I accidentally discovered a Third Grade demonic beast, the Residual Golden Bear, deep in the forest. It was extremely powerful and unbeatable.”

“Residual Golden Bear.” Shen Shi’s eyes lit up for a moment, and his spirits were lifted. This kind of demonic beast with a somewhat strange name was one of the demonic beasts of the bear type. Its nature was strange. Normally, apart from hunting some low-grade demonic beasts for food, its favorite thing was to devour gold and iron artifacts. Normally, the remnant golden bears lived in the wilderness. Without human cultivators passing by, there would naturally be no ready-made weapons, blades, gold, and iron for them to eat. Therefore, these demonic beasts would often look for spirit ores that contained various types of gold, silver, copper, iron, and spirit stones in the mountains to swallow.

So long ago, the remnant golden bear ‘s body will form a unique and bizarre metal mass, Because the Residual Gold Bear naturally loved to eat rare spirit ores and could not completely digest them, many rare and precious spirit ores were contained within them. If one was lucky, they could even find extremely rare fifth grade or above spirit ores in the bodies of these demonic beasts. It could be said to be a kind of mineral that could move about. In contrast, the parts of the residual golden bear that could be used as spirit materials were not as valuable as the metal clumps in its body.

Shen Shi’s mind spun. He then glanced at Zhong Qingzhu, who was beside him. Coincidentally, he saw Zhong Qingzhu also looking at him. The two of them stared at each other for a moment. Shen Shi smiled slightly and whispered, “Let’s go in and take a look?”

“Yes.” Zhong Qingzhu nodded.

Shen Shi didn’t say anything more and walked into the forest. Ji Anfu was stunned when he saw the situation. He opened his mouth and was about to speak when Zhong Qingzhu turned around and smiled at him. “Thank you, Senior Brother Ji, for telling us about this. Although the Residual Golden Bear is very powerful and fierce, we still want to go over and try it.”

Ji Anfu looked at the two figures beneath the mountain forest and felt a burst of inexplicable jealousy in his heart. He secretly gritted his teeth. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Zhong Qingzhu directly turn around and quicken his pace to Shen Shi’s side. He walked side by side with him into the depths of the forest.

She didn’t even have the slightest intention of inviting him to kill the demons, as if this matter had nothing to do with her!

The back of the man and woman looked like a perfect match under the shade of a tree, as if they were made for each other, but in Ji Anfu’s eyes, it was so dazzling.

His face was ashen, and his jealousy could no longer be concealed. He coldly watched from behind as Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu walked into the forest.
