Everything sounds slow, but in fact it only happens in the blink of an eye.
Lu Jing ran up from the ground and looked up immediately.
Indeed, the dead tree was cut in half, where the old monk lay.
The evil aura has weakened a lot.
He quickly ran over to see the old monk.
"Old monk~"
Lu Jing helped the old monk up.
"Ahem~ I can't die yet."
The old monk was naturally still alive, but he felt sorry for his relic and his face was frighteningly pale.
Lu Jing checked the old monk. Fortunately, his energy and blood were confused, he had some external injuries, three broken ribs, and some serious internal injuries, but Lu Jing was prepared.
He took out a Meridian Pill with his backhand and said, "Old monk, open your mouth."
"What?" asked the old monk.
"It's good for your internal injuries, not poison." Lu Jing glared.
"You can take poison, too," the old monk joked, taking Lu Jing's Meridian Pills without hesitation.
The next moment the old monk's eyes lit up: "I didn't expect you, little fox, to have such a good thing, do you still have it?"
"The last one is gone." Lu Jing did not hesitate.
"Stingy." The old monk rolled his eyes and felt much better.
Lu Jing then let go of the old monk and let him rest, while he got up to look at the dead trees or the black mountain ghosts.
When I walked over and took a look, I saw that the two halves of the dead tree were bloody inside, which was very strange.
But now it looks like he is dead.
It cost him more than ten spells and a sword strike.
Most of the energy was consumed.
In addition, the old monk was in harmony with the outside world, so it was normal for him to die.
"What did the little fox discover?" the old monk asked.
Lu Jing held the ice sword and waved on the dead wood, and said casually: "I didn't find anything, I should be dead."
Just as he was speaking, he suddenly noticed a surge of soil in the split dead wood.
With a thought in his heart, he stabbed it with the ice sword.
This poke is a big deal.
Swish.
The soil suddenly exploded, and a red light flew away.
With a whoosh, he passed directly by Lu Jing.
Lu Jing was stunned.
Unexpectedly, there was something else.
He saw what seemed to be a red, diamond-shaped object the size of a fist, which was very dazzling.
It was at this time that I remembered the curse of Master Banshee in my mind: "Idiot, stop me. That is the essence of the locust tree. It is the Taoist power of the black mountain demon. It will be of great use to your cultivation."
"Ah~"
Lu Jing was shocked and quickly chased after him.
But the red speed ahead was very fast.
In the blink of an eye, he flew straight up and away, and he was about to lose track of him.
The voice of the Banshee Lord in my mind sounded again: "Draw out the sword."
Lu Jing heard the solemn voice of Master Banshee, and almost subconsciously, he struck a sword at the essence of Crimson, or Black Mountain Demon, which had already flown upward thirty meters away.
Lu Jing knew that it was useless to strike out with a sword, because the distance was too far, and with his current level of cultivation, he could not release his true energy.
Thought it was of no use.
But after drawing the sword, he knew that he had thought wrong.
This sword is really cool.
I felt the ice sword tremble, and then a silver-white sword energy burst out from the sword body, hitting Chi Hong with a swish.
Only then did Lu Jing realize that Master Banshee had secretly taken action.
Thirty meters in the air, I saw his sword energy hitting him, and at the same time a scream was heard.
"Ah~"
The next second, the diamond-shaped piece of cypress essence fell from mid-air, but at the same time, a red shadow also flew out from it, flying straight up without stopping at all.
There was a sound of endless resentment.
"Young man, please remember that today's revenge will be avenged in the future. I and you will fight to the death..."
It was a sharp woman's voice.
He actually calls himself a demon.
This made Lu Jing confused.
He waved his hand and caught the diamond-shaped locust tree essence.
The tentacles were cold, but I could feel the pure spiritual energy emanating from them.
Looking up at the hole leading to the top, Lu Jing asked Master Banshee in his heart: "Master, what was that sound just now?"
The Banshee Lord said calmly: "What else can happen? The body of the demon is a locust tree, and it is a hermaphrodite. The one you killed before was the male, and the soul that escaped was the female demon's soul. The soul of the golden elixir realm is gone without the locust tree." The spirit of the wood has no body, and it will not cause any trouble if it escapes."
"There are both male and female in this thing~"
Lu Jing heard about it for the first time and felt very different.
The extremely resentful and hateful words of the female demon who had just escaped echoed in my mind.
It sounded like he would seek revenge on himself in the future, which made him feel irritable for no reason.
No one expected that a female would appear at the end.
"It's rare, but strange." The Banshee snorted.
Lu Jing said anxiously: "Master, the female demon who escaped just now said she wanted to seek revenge from me. Is there anything going on?"
"What will happen if you run away? If you build the foundation as soon as possible, why should you be afraid of an escaped evil soul?" The words of the Banshee Lord were calm and calm.
But Lu Jing felt a little confused.
He was being obsessed with by a demon. He was not a human being. If he were a human being, then the demon would know how he would find him in the future.
Of course, the matter has come to this, and he has no choice but to take it one step at a time. Master Banshee is right. He must improve his cultivation as soon as possible, and he will not be afraid of anything.
After thinking about it, he held the essence of the locust tree in his hand and said, "Master, can this essence of the locust tree allow me to build a foundation?"
"What are you dreaming about? If it were the heyday of the evil demon, you could get its wood spirit and step into the foundation-building realm. It had been suppressed and sealed for thousands of years, and the main body was killed by you and was seriously damaged. How could it be possible? There is so much power left for you." Banshee Lord said.
After hearing this, Lu Jing was a little disappointed and said, "Is it okay to improve one or two small realms?"
"It depends on your personal destiny." After saying this, the Banshee Lord stopped making any sound.
"What happened to the little fox?"
By this time, the crazy monk had recovered his health and came over.
Lu Jing told the crazy monk what Master Banshee said. Of course, he didn't mention a word about Master Banshee. He kept all the conversations with the master in his mind.
The crazy monk looked at him motionless for most of the day, which was just a bit weird.
As for the essence of the locust tree in his hand, he put it away with his backhand. He would not let the old monk get a share of it.
Fortunately, the crazy monk did not pursue the matter of the locust tree spirit, but said with worry: "I didn't expect that there are male and female evil spirits that escaped. I will find a way to have people search for them, so you don't have to worry too much."
"This is the only way." Lu Jing said helplessly.
"This trip can be considered a success. At least there will be no more problems here. Let's go." The crazy monk said.
Lu Jing took out the Tianshi gourd in his hand and said: "There is still finishing work. There are hundreds of innocent souls here. Now that we have killed the evil spirits themselves, these innocent souls have no cause and effect. Let's give them a ride!"
"That's true, I almost forgot, let's go to salvation together."
"Okay~"
Lu Jing opened the gourd stopper and silently recited the Sutra of Transcendence.
Although he didn't know if it was useful, he saw from the Heavenly Master's Code left by Zhang Daoling that there was such a record that salvation could allow the souls of the wronged to be reincarnated.
The crazy monk also chanted the Buddha's name and read out a scripture that Lu Jing could not understand.
The Tianshi gourd began to glow, and individual figures floated out from it. After a while, hundreds of people gathered together, silently bowing to thank Lu Jing and the crazy monk, and then each of them turned into little stars and disappeared into the darkness...
