Xu Mo was caught by something in the darkness. Even though he had great internal strength, he was like a little chicken in the opponent's hands and could only be kneaded.
But the other party didn't kill Xu Mo, but seemed to come to help him.
He couldn't struggle, and his mouth was covered.
Xu Moxin said, "Let's do whatever it takes to love."
The next moment, those hands pulled back hard. Xu Mo felt like he was sitting on a supercar and accelerated from 0 to 100. Then his eyes flashed and he had reached the edge of a dark forest.
In front are dense black trees, more than two feet high, arranged neatly, like a strange black barrier. The strange thing is that there is a black mist entwining in the forest, filling all the gaps between the trees.
The black mist is like ink and airtight.
"The Black Soul Forest is a forbidden area. No one is allowed to enter without permission. Didn't anyone teach you when you came here?"
A scolding came from behind.
Xu Mo looked back and saw a man in black robe standing under the night sky. He looked young, not tall, and a bit ugly. He looked like a talk show host that Xu Mo had often seen online before.
Apparently, Xu Mo was dragged out by the other party.
From this dark soul forest.
But before, we were clearly in the Lightless Ghost Realm, and in a mountain temple, so where is this place?
Xu Mo's mind was full of questions and he didn't know how to respond.
"If I hadn't saved you, you would have been buried in the Black Soul Forest and become one of countless wronged souls. If Master knew about it, your fate would have been to be burned into a furnace and you would have died."
After the man finished speaking, Xu Mo was still stunned.
Seeing that Xu Mo was still not enlightened, the other party said: "I saved your life. If you don't want to die, just listen to my instructions later, otherwise you will not live until dawn."
At this time, a dull strange sound suddenly came from the distance, like a cow braying.
Hearing this voice, the man in black robe glanced at Xu Mo, immediately waved his black sleeves, turned and left.
Xu Mo was left alone and confused.
He looked around and didn't understand why, but he still stayed where he was. As a result, the man in black robe over there came back, grabbed Xu Mo and walked forward.
"The black bull has already barked, what the hell are you doing there, are you looking for death?"
So Xu Mo, who was confused, was dragged into a dark hall.
There were candles lit here, and dozens of people were sitting on the ground. A few were wearing black robes, and most were in ragged clothes, with sallow complexions and thin skin. Among these people, Xu Mo did not stand out at all.
Perfectly integrated into it.
When others sat down, he also sat down. There were dozens of people in the hall, both men and women, but it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Xu Mo was thinking about it when four people came over carrying a door panel. An old man was sitting on the door panel. Everyone stood up and bowed in salute.
"Master!"
Xu Mo was full of doubts, but he still followed the example of others and learned how to salute.
"sit!"
Someone shouted and everyone sat down.
Look at the old man over there, as fat as a pig, wearing a black robe, a tall hat and a big crown, with a thick layer of powder on his fat face. This is weird enough, but what's even weirder is that this fat old man's eyes are hollow.
He is blind; there is pus from both ears, and it is estimated that the ears cannot be used. If you look closely, this guy has no legs.
No wonder he was being carried.
Blind, deaf, or crippled.
This person is miserable enough. Who is he?
In the main hall, everyone was extremely respectful to the old man.
No.
After observing for a while, Xu Mo discovered that this was not respectful.
It's fear.
Sitting among the crowd, Xu Mo tried hard to sort out the current situation and came to some conclusions.
This is not a mountain temple, let alone somewhere in Zao Mountain, but another unknown place; this long-distance crossing is related to the Lightless Ghost Realm, and it is also related to the Black Soul Forest.
And he was mistaken for someone here.
Next, you have to figure out where this place is and who these people are.
Also, where did Mr. Xuanshan go? Is he here too?
The old man in black robe in front sat cross-legged on the high platform and said nothing, and the hall was also as quiet as death.
Can't figure out what this is supposed to do.
Xu Mo suddenly realized something. How could this blind, deaf, and disabled person have the same prerequisites for practicing the 'Night Mountain Artifact'?
Coincidence?
It's not exactly the same, the other side also has an extra broken leg.
The method recorded on the Xinghuang Taoist robe is currently in Xu Mo's arms. Could it be that this disabled old man has also practiced it?
At this time, the disabled old man started to hum.
At first, Xu Mo thought this guy was just humming, but soon he discovered that the other person was speaking in nightmare language and was preaching.
Although Xu Mo had learned the Nightmare language unexpectedly, he was still a little short of mastering it, so even though he knew that the other party was speaking Nightmare language, he probably couldn't understand it.
The few words that can be understood are fragmented, such as 'spiritual marrow', 'death', 'life', 'alchemy furnace', 'six desires', and one word appears most frequently.
The word translated as ‘becoming an immortal’.
Could it be that this is a cultivating sect?
The old man is the leader of this sect?
Then this leader is a bit arrogant, simply too arrogant. He is such a loser, why do you feel that everyone is so afraid of him?
At this moment, the humming old man stopped and pointed, and the porter beside him who had been carrying the door panel rushed over, grabbed the person pointed by the old man by the neck, and dragged him in front of the old man.
The person who was arrested was in ragged clothes and looked to be in his twenties, but he was shaking with fear and his face was pale.
"Teacher, teacher...teacher..." He couldn't even speak clearly.
The old man sitting on the door panel like a meaty man grinned, the fat on his face stiffened, and he stretched out his fat and thick fingers and made a shushing motion.
The next moment, the old man raised his hands and struck the man in front of him with his palms together, smashing his head into pieces.
Just like a big black bear hitting a watermelon.
His head had turned into a mud mixed with flesh and bone.
This was scary enough, but what was even more unbelievable was what was coming next. A stream of smoke came out of the crippled old man's hands, and sparks surged from his fingertips. In an instant, a ball of green fire burst into flames, and in the blink of an eye his head was burned.
Smash that buddy's body to pieces and set it on fire.
The green fire was extremely strange and extremely hot. A corpse was visibly burned and shrunk by the naked eye. It was like a deflated ball, growing smaller and larger, and finally slowly extinguished between the old man's hands.
It was like watching an incredible magic show.
A big living person, his head was first smashed, and then burned completely by the green fire that came from nowhere.
Not too polished either.
The crippled old man now opened his palms and revealed a knot in his strange smile.
Not too round and uneven.
But the crippled old man seemed to regard it as a treasure, looking left and right, then grinned, raised his head, and swallowed the lump in his mouth.
Xu Mo saw it clearly. He thought for a while. This was very similar to what was said in "The Secret Art of Human Pills", using people as medicine to make pills. The following sentence is: "Swallow the pill into the belly, one pill a day, a hundred pills."
One day gathers spirit, a thousand days turns into a pill, three thousand days turns into a baby, nine thousand days turns into an immortal!'
Xu Mo didn't make this up, it's written in the secret of human elixir.
Obviously, this crippled old man is also practicing the secret technique of human elixir.
Wait a minute, wouldn’t everyone in this hall become medicinal materials for alchemy?
Including yourself.
No wonder you are so afraid of this old guy, he treats people like livestock.
Isn’t this against him?
Looking around, he saw that most people were relieved. Xu Mo thought about it and understood.
They dare not resist.
No courage.
Neither is capable.
The principle is, live one more day and earn one more day.
Sad.
The old man was carried away by four porters. If you look carefully, you can see that the four porters carrying the door panel are not human beings. They look like hairy monkeys. I don’t know what kind of monster they are. They are wearing clothes. If you don’t look carefully, you might think they are human beings.
The people in the hall then dispersed.
Xu Mo didn't know where to go, so he couldn't stay here. He had to go out first.
After going out with others, everyone walked along the path in front, Xu Mo also followed. Halfway through, there was a man in black robe standing in front of him.
It was the one who pulled Xu Mo out of the Black Soul Forest before.
When the others saw it, they hurriedly addressed him as ‘elder brother’.
The senior brother waved his hand and told everyone else to get lost, leaving Xu Mo alone.
"Come with me."
After the other party finished speaking, he walked to the side and turned into a fork in the road. Xu Mo had no choice but to follow.
The situation is unclear now, so we can only take one step at a time.
The winding path, sometimes going down, sometimes going up, ended up in a secluded place.
The other party stopped and turned around to stare at Xu Mo.
Don't speak.
Xu Mo was slightly uneasy and looked at the other party.
"How...how did you get in?" After a long while, the senior brother whispered.
