Killing God - Chapter 381
Chapter 381 Skin Erosion
Walking into the dense forest, a faint yet pervasive aura filled his surroundings. It was a strange smell unique to the Blood Vampiric Soil. Shen Shi looked around and found that the forest was covered in vampiric soil. He frowned slightly and saw Zhong Qingzhu walking beside him. He said to her,
‘”Qingzhu, this layer of soil on the ground should be a rare vampiric soil. Although generally speaking, it’s fine for cultivators to stand on it for a short period of time, we shouldn’t stay here for too long.”
Zhong Qingzhu nodded and glanced at the purple-black soil below. Then, he walked forward with Shen Shi. At the same time, he said, “I heard that the Residual Golden Bear is one of the most powerful Third Grade demonic beasts. Not to mention its infinite strength, its skin and flesh are incomparably tough.” “If it was a rare remnant golden bear that could produce a demon core, then its strength would be even more formidable. I heard that it wouldn’t even be able to injure an ordinary spirit sword magical artifact.”
Shen Shi nodded his head and said, “Indeed. If the remnant golden bear in the forest is really a demonic beast that has formed a demonic core, I’m afraid the two of us alone cannot deal with it. Then we can only retreat.” However … “He smiled and looked at the path behind him that had been blocked by the trees. He smiled and said,” Do you think that if he really had the Demon Core’s Remnant Golden Bear, would that person be able to run out of the forest so easily just now? ”
Zhong Qingzhu thought for a moment and said, “What you said makes sense.” A moment later, she suddenly looked at him and a smile flashed in her eyes. “But why do I feel that your tone and attitude towards Senior Brother Jian Fuji doesn’t seem to be very good?” She said.
Shen Shi snorted and said in a muffled voice, “Just think that I don’t like him, okay?”
Zhong Qingzhu looked a little curious and said, “Strange, why are you looking at him so unpleasantly?”
Shen Shi rolled his eyes and said, “I don’t think he is as handsome and carefree as me, but he still waved in front of me all day long, so it’s not pleasing to the eye, okay?”
Zhong Qingzhu stood there, startled for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Shen Shi curled his lips. He thought to himself that I was not blind. After meeting Ji Anfu several times after returning to the mountain, that fellow’s expression had always been that of a ghost. Not to mention the appearance of Ji Anfu standing beside Zhong Liancheng when he returned to the Zhong Clan with Zhong Qinglu. Truth be told, ever since he was inexplicably splashed with dirty water, Shen Shi recalled it afterwards and suspected that the malicious rumor was most likely related to Ji Anfu.
On that day, there were only four people present in the Zhong Clan. Apart from herself, Zhong Qinglu had also told her about this matter later. Apart from apologizing, she also said that she had to go into seclusion to refine pills as soon as she went up the mountain to prepare for the pill gathering. Thus, only Zhong Liancheng and Ji Anfu were left with this rumor. Although most of the rumors had slandered Shen Shi, it really wasn’t good for the reputation of the Zhong Clan. As long as Zhong Liancheng wasn’t too stupid, he wouldn’t intentionally publicize it to the entire clan. Therefore, the person who was the most suspicious was truly unknown.
However, there was no evidence for such a vague rumor. No matter how capable Shen Shi was, he could not keep his mouth shut. He could only bravely endure this hidden loss. However, when he recalled this matter afterwards, it was strange that he would have a good expression towards Ji Anfu. Seriously, there was no chance at this moment. If there was such an opportunity to stumble, Shen Shi would definitely rush to stretch out his foot.
However, looking at Shen Shi’s expression, Zhong Qingzhu remained silent for a moment. His eyes were filled with tenderness and a smile. He seemed to be hesitant, but then he smiled and said, “As for him, his eyes are higher than the top, but he has little ambition. He usually likes to … well, he likes to associate with some of the more beautiful female cultivators in his sect.” However, because he is at the Pill Hall, sometimes I need to buy and sell some spirit materials, so he will help me a little. Therefore, I usually pretend to say goodbye to him. In any case, are they fellow disciples? Just give him a little perfunctory treatment. ”
Shen Shi was a little surprised when he heard this, but then he was a little happy for no reason. He smiled and said, “So you know all about it. That would be great. I was originally thinking about how to explain it to you, but I was afraid that I would be stupid and not be able to explain it clearly. On the contrary, it would be terrible if I let you misunderstand me. That would be good, so that I wouldn’t be wasted being a villain.”
Zhong Qingzhu looked at him carefully and smiled, “Well, did you just say that he wasn’t as handsome and elegant as you?”
Shen Shi was a little embarrassed for a moment. He rubbed his head and said, “Isn’t that nonsense? I’m just teasing you. Don’t take it seriously.”
Zhong Qingzhu smiled even more. She seemed to be walking a little faster. Light flickered in the forest, and the shadows of trees swayed. She seemed to be the most beautiful and beautiful figure in this quiet forest. She smiled and said, “Ha, I can’t see that you can tease girls too. I thought you were just a stupid rock that doesn’t open your apertures.”
Shen Shi looked at her and suddenly paused for a moment. In that instant, her smile was like a sweet flower petal. In this flickering forest, she had never seen such beauty before. It was as if she had carefully kept this tenderness hidden in her heart for many years. Only at this moment did she unknowingly and quietly blossom.
Like the orchid of the night, it bloomed quietly. In the silent place, it was silent but gorgeous.
Shen Shi stopped in front of him and subconsciously added, “Nonsense, how could I be like a rock?”
Zhong Qingzhu’s gaze was like water as he swept past his figure. There was a hint of vague tenderness in his eyes. He whispered, “Normally, you call him Stone. Naturally, that would be Stone.”
Shen Shi didn’t know what to say for a moment, but he suddenly felt that at this moment, the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to be somewhat strange. He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that something wasn’t quite right. Just as he was thinking that perhaps he shouldn’t continue speaking like this, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the forest ahead.
Little Hei, who was following at Shen Shi’s feet, raised his head. He looked a little vigilant and snorted in the direction where the roar came from. Shen Shi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart for no reason. He hurriedly whispered to Zhong Qingzhu, “Be careful, that remnant golden bear might be right in front.”
Zhong Qingzhu’s eyes lit up as he glanced at him and nodded lightly.

The two of them brought Little Hei along and walked forward. About a few zhang later, traces of a fight suddenly appeared in this forest. Several large trees were tilted or broken, and one of them even fell on a bush of thorns. At the same time, the ground was in a mess, and footprints could be seen everywhere.
Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu exchanged a glance. Zhong Qingzhu whispered, “Ji Anfu should have met that remnant golden bear here just now.”
Shen Shi nodded and looked around carefully. He saw that the surrounding forest was quiet, but he didn’t see any demonic beasts. His eyebrows furrowed, thinking that from the roar just now, the remnant golden bear should be not far from here, but at this moment, he did not know where to hide.
Could it be that the demonic beast had already left this place?
As he was pondering, Little Hei suddenly let out a low roar at his feet. Then, behind a large tree more than three meters away from Shen Shi, a black figure suddenly rushed out and let out an earth-shattering roar, rushing towards him.
In an instant, a furious roar resounded through the entire forest, suppressing all other sounds. The black shadow looked incomparably huge, smashing down heavily like a small mountain.
If an ordinary person encountered this scene, they would probably be stunned to the point of not reacting at all. However, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were naturally not ordinary people. Even in the Lingxiao Sect Sect, they were considered extraordinary amongst the disciples of the Origin Condensation Realm. Thus, when the black shadow rushed out, both of them reacted at almost the same time. At the same time, they turned their heads to look, their bodies had already retreated.
When the mountain of flesh-like black shadow rushed over, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu had already retreated to the side, avoiding this overwhelming pressure. They immediately saw that this black figure was a huge black bear with a body as large as a small mountain. Judging from its height, the bear stood up and roared at the demonic beast with a fierce expression. Shen Shi could only reach its chest. Looking at its sharp teeth and fangs, its fur was in a dark black swamp, and there was a faint metallic luster. Obviously, this was the remnant golden bear they were looking for.
Zhong Qingzhu’s expression darkened. He had already pulled out his cold sword from his back. Although the momentum of the Residual Golden Bear earlier was incomparably ferocious, she and Shen Shi were both people who knew what was going on. They could tell at a glance that the Residual Golden Bear was fierce. However, if it really formed a Demon Core, its body would be at least half bigger. At the same time, the strange golden brown luster on its skin would be even more obvious.
Sure enough, this was just an ordinary Third Grade remnant Golden Bear that hadn’t formed a demon core. Although its combat strength looked extremely ferocious, Zhong Qingzhu wasn’t afraid. However, just as she was about to step forward, she was suddenly pulled by Shen Shi.
Zhong Qingzhu was stunned for a moment and said, “What’s wrong?”
Shen Shi looked at the ferocious-looking Golden Remnant Bear in front of him. He did not immediately reply to Zhong Qingzhu’s words. Instead, he suddenly kicked the little black pig’s butt and whispered,
“Go.”
The little black pig staggered to the front. It looked helpless, but then it saw the residual golden bear’s gaze sweeping over. It roared continuously. It seemed as if it had suddenly regained its spirits. It was actually not afraid of this Third Grade demonic beast at all, even though its body was more than ten times the size of the other party’s.
Just like that, Little Hei stood half a zhang away from the remnant golden bear and suddenly let out a roar, revealing his pitiful fangs to the remnant golden bear.
The roar of the remnant golden bear suddenly stifled, as if it was shocked or too surprised. Then, it lowered its head to look at the Little Hei pig whose color was somewhat similar to its own.
Little Black roared twice. He looked extremely arrogant. He grinned at the remnant golden bear, startling it for a moment. It was as if he did not react at all. The two sides actually confronted each other for a short time.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Shi whispered to Zhong Qingzhu, “Such an ordinary remnant golden bear’s fur is considered tough. Can you break its fur and injure it?”
Zhong Qingzhu looked at the remnant golden bear that seemed to be somewhat angry and started roaring again. He nodded and said with a confident expression, “No problem.”
Shen Shi smiled and said, “That’s easy.” As he spoke, he walked to Zhong Qingzhu’s side and whispered a few words into her ear. Zhong Qingzhu raised his eyebrows as if he was a little surprised. Then, he turned to look at Shen Shi. There seemed to be a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he still nodded in the end and said, “Alright.”
On the other side, the remnant golden bear that Little Black had suddenly provoked seemed to have recovered from its shock. At the same time, it was extremely furious with this little black pig that didn’t know the heavens and earth. With a furious roar, its enormous body that was like a mountain of flesh rushed over once again.
The Little Hei pig tilted its body, slipped to the side, and quickly moved away. At the same time, Shen Shi, who was standing at the side, suddenly waved his hand. In the air in the middle of the forest, he suddenly condensed a ball of black gas that looked somewhat strange, and then quickly landed on the thick back of the Residual Golden Bear.
Magic. Skin Eclipse.
A strange “sizzling” sound suddenly came from behind the remnant golden bear. Black gas enveloped an area about the size of a palm. At the same time, a figure suddenly flashed past. Zhong Qingzhu had already skimmed to the side. Under the skylight in the forest, the cold-shining spirit sword slashed into the air and directly stabbed into the black gas.
“Pa!” With a muffled sound, the thick skin of the remnant golden bear seemed to have completely lost its effect. It turned into a thin piece of paper and was instantly pierced into its body by the spirit sword, directly submerging into more than half of the hilt of the sword.
The Residual Golden Bear’s body instantly trembled as it raised its head to the sky and let out a terrifying and painful roar.
Feeling the sharpness of the sword blade in his hand, even Zhong Qingzhu’s expression changed slightly. He subconsciously raised his head to glance at Shen Shi, who was standing in the distance with a smile on his face.
Exactly what kind of technique is this? It actually possesses such a strange and powerful strength …
