Chapter 136 The Immortal Murloc

After thinking for a while, Survival took out several dried fish from the storage bag and handed it to the murloc: "Can you take us to your village? These dried fish will be your reward."

"welcome!"

The murloc accepted the dried fish with a smile on his face.
Under the leadership of the murlocs, Shenghuo and Zhongran continued to move deeper into the swamp.

Not long after, there was smoke rising from the sky, and the tall reeds growing in the swamp gradually disappeared after arriving here.

Disappeared with the reeds, and the white mist that filled the swamp.

So the whole swamp suddenly became clear at this moment.

Shenghuo looked forward, and saw countless houses made of stones and reeds scattered in the open land in front of him.

There are roads paved with gravel and mud between the houses, so that when people walk, they will not step on the slippery and muddy swamp.

On the road, you can vaguely see murlocs walking through the village.

Not only that.

Among those murlocs, one or two monks could occasionally be seen.

These monks are very strange.

Most of them looked obsessed, and kept staring at the murlocs around them while walking, and deliberately imitated the murlocs' words and deeds.

Not right.
Something is wrong with this village.

After seeing the abnormality of those monks, Sheng Huo immediately shot lightning and grabbed the murloc who was leading the way for him by the neck.

He lifted the murloc into the air with one hand, frowned and said, "Is there something else you haven't told us?"

"Hey,"

The murloc who was strangled by Survival not only did not show any panic, but smiled at Survival very calmly.

Immediately afterwards, his whole body exuded the powerful aura unique to deep dive monks.

This breath forced Survival to let go of the murloc's hand instinctively, and retreated back unconsciously.

He was surprised: "Who are you?"

"It's all fake." The murloc smiled and said, "I'm just an ordinary murloc in the murloc village."

This.
Hearing the murloc's answer, Sheng Huo showed fear, but he was already ready to run away at any time.

He stared at the murloc for a long time, frowned, and said, "Although you seem to be only at the embryo-building stage, the aura you exude is no less than that of a monk at the deep-diving stage. Are you using some kind of method to hide your strength?"

"It is true that I only have the embryo-building stage cultivation, and at the same time, I can indeed exude the breath of a deep-diving stage monk." The murloc explained: "The embryo-building stage cultivation in my body is obtained through hard work when I was a human monk. As for the breath, it is because after I became a murloc, I obtained a body comparable to a deep-diving stage monk."

With the cultivation base of the embryo-building stage, and at the same time having a physical body comparable to that of a deep-diving monk? ?
What the murloc said stunned Shenghuo.

At this moment, he seemed to realize something in his heart, and hurriedly asked the murloc: "You mean, not only you, as long as it is a murloc, all have a body no less than the deep diving period?"

"Ah,"

The murloc chuckled, nodded and said, "That's right, it's not just me, all the murlocs in this village have a body comparable to that of a deep-dive monk!"

"It's like tigers and lions can easily kill humans without any practice or training when they become adults."

"After humans become murlocs, they don't need to go through any practice to obtain a body comparable to that of a monk in the deep dive period!"

It was between Survival and Murloc talking.

Zhong Ran suddenly had a guess in his mind, so he interjected: "Your Murloc Village, could it be one of the so-called 'inheritances of ancient immortals' in the secret realm of Tianshan?"

"The little girl is quite smart."

The murloc nodded and replied, "You guessed right: in fact, our murloc village itself is one of the so-called 'inheritances of ancient immortals' you are looking for."

"Find the monks in the murloc village, you only need to stay in the murloc village all the time, and over time, they will be assimilated into murlocs by the village."

"After you become a murloc, you will also be able to have a physical body of this strength."

The murloc explained to Shenghuo and Zhong Ran: "I deliberately concealed this from you before, because I was worried that you would not come to this village because you were afraid of our murloc's strength or becoming a murloc."

"And now, you have seen many things with your own eyes, and I have also told you all the secrets of the Murloc Village."

"So it's up to you to decide whether to go or stay, whether you want to have a body comparable to that of a deep dive monk, or just turn around and leave!"

"Oh, right."

As the murloc said, there was an undisguised temptation in his tone: "I almost forgot to tell you: the physical strength of the murloc is not only comparable to that of a monk in the deep diving period, but also has the characteristics of immortality, and the life span is almost endless!"

"Eternity?" Cheng Huo was taken aback when he heard the words: "Aren't you murlocs going to die?"

"Of course!"

The murloc replied: "It is precisely because the lifespan is endless that we murlocs do not have the concept of 'time'."

"So, I can't tell you exactly how old I lived. But what I can be sure of is that I know from the outside monks that the Murloc Village has existed for at least 1 years since the day when the curse broke out in the secret realm of Tianshan, the Heavenly Court fell, and the Murloc Village was born."

The murloc finally said: "In other words, the longest-lived murloc in our murloc village must be at least [-] years old!"

This.
Survival is a little exciting.

It has to be said that after becoming a murloc, one can live almost forever, which is a fatal and irresistible temptation for anyone.

However, all of these are just one-sided words of the murloc.

As for whether this is actually the case, we need to continue to observe and observe to be sure.
At the entrance of the Murloc Village.

Facing the temptation of the murloc, Shenghuo didn't say much, but glanced at the murloc village again.

He asked the murloc: "So those monks who stayed in the murloc village and deliberately imitated the murloc's words and deeds did so in order to become murlocs?"

"En." The murloc nodded and said, "According to those monks, you can imitate the murloc's every word and deed like that, and you can speed up your transformation into a murloc."

"However, this statement is just a guess in the end. Whether it is accurate or not has not been confirmed."

"After all, even if some monks don't intentionally imitate murlocs, as long as they stay in the village long enough, they can still mutate."

As long as you stay in the murloc village long enough, you can become a murloc.

And after becoming a murloc, not only can he possess tyrannical strength, but he can also become an immortal existence with a lifespan that is almost endless.

As for the flaws.
Thinking of this, Shenghuo asked the murloc again: "But to become a murloc, you have to pay a certain price, right? For example, the body will mutate into a murloc, for example, you will be trapped in the murloc village forever, eating reeds and fish, and you will be full if you are hungry."

The murloc rushed forward and said: "It is an indisputable fact that if a monk stays in the murloc village, his body will mutate into a murloc."

"As for whether this is good or bad, it depends on what you think."

"But you just said that you will be trapped in the murloc village forever. This is your guesswork." The murloc emphasized: "Even if a monk becomes a murloc, he can still leave the village at any time. For example, in our village, murlocs often go to the outside world to exchange some food with normal humans in order to improve their food."

Chenghuo questioned: "Since the murlocs can leave the village, why have I never seen murlocs where I am?"

The murloc said without hesitation, "Then if I'm not wrong, the place where the two of you are located shouldn't be a big place like the 'Field of Pain' or the 'Big Sky City'?"

"It's like people in the village go to the big city when they go to the market. Do you think that if you are in a remote place, would there be murlocs willing to go to your place?"

"And if the place you are in is in the midst of war, or if a curse breaks out, or if pollution is spreading everywhere, then it's even less likely that someone will pass by."

"Even in order to prevent the further spread of war, curse and pollution, it is not impossible to directly dismantle the teleportation array on your side."

The murloc recalled: "It's like the Heavenly Court, which flourished for thousands of years, and all the forces on the entire Xuanwu Planet bowed their heads and bowed down to it."

"But since the curse broke out in the secret territory of the Tianshan Mountains and the pollution spread, they were isolated by everyone in an instant."

"Then, in just a few hundred years, the Heavenly Court completely disappeared."

This.
Survival is speechless.

Because the Daliang country where he is located, there is indeed pollution spreading everywhere.

And if it is as strong as the Heavenly Court and will perish due to pollution, then after the Western Catastrophe arrives, Daliang Kingdom will really be in jeopardy
The catastrophe of the West is far from being able to be stopped by a single survivor.

So he didn't think about the catastrophe in the west for the time being, and continued to ask the murlocs: "Since the murlocs can leave here and go elsewhere, why do you all stay in the murloc village, where you can't even grow crops and satisfy your appetite?"

"Because of the curse."

The murloc replied: "The curse of the murloc village only exists in the murloc village and its surrounding areas. Once you leave the murloc village for too long, the curse will weaken with the passage of time until it disappears completely, and turns the murloc polluted by the curse back into humans."

"If you change back to a human, you will lose your murloc body, and naturally you will lose your almost endless lifespan."

"So for some murlocs who have lived for thousands of years and have already exceeded the limit of their lifespan, once they leave the murloc village for too long, they will turn back into humans and die due to the exhaustion of their lifespan. Therefore, most murlocs will not easily leave the village and settle elsewhere."

"But." Zhong Ran couldn't figure it out: "If you just stay in the Murloc village just to survive, what's the difference between this and going to jail?"

"Don't forget, murlocs, like humans, can also cultivate."

The murloc replied: "For example, among human monks, my aptitude is considered to be very poor. However, relying on my long lifespan, I managed to cultivate all the way to the embryo-building stage. There are still many murlocs like me in the village."

"There are also a very small number of murlocs who have even cultivated all the way to the blood pill stage by relying on a lot of time."

"And being able to practice is a kind of hope."

Speaking of this, the murloc said with a hint of expectation in his tone: "Because being able to cultivate to the blood pill stage means that we can further break through to the deep diving stage, or even a higher realm."

"And as our realm becomes stronger and stronger, one day, we will no longer be bound by life span, and only rely on our own cultivation to become an eternal and immortal existence."

"When that day really comes, we murlocs will naturally be able to leave this ghostly place."

"No matter how far away that day is, or even tens of thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, our murlocs have an endless lifespan, so we can always wait for it."

Use the endless lifespan of murlocs to cultivate and pursue the Dao.

This motive sounds reasonable.

"Since the lifespan of murlocs is endless."

Survival thought for a while and said, "Then, can I take advantage of this feature and come to the Murloc Village when I am near the end of my life?"

The murloc shook his head and said: "In theory, it is possible, but after all, the murloc village is one of the ancient immortal inheritances in the secret territory of Tianshan, and the ancient immortal inheritance is not something you can meet just by thinking about it. The randomness in it is too great."

"Only the murlocs can take the initiative to enter the murloc village."

"As for human monks, you can only rely on luck. If you are lucky, you may come to the Murloc Village by mistake when you come to the Tianshan Secret Realm for the first time. If you are unlucky, you may spend your whole life searching, but you may not be able to find the Murloc Village in the Tianshan Secret Realm."

The murlocs Chong Chenghuo and Zhong Ran emphasized: "So, just because the two of you can come to the Murloc village this time, doesn't mean you will meet again next time. So this is not only your chance to obtain eternal life, but it is also probably the only chance to obtain eternal life."

Can't miss the chance.
Survival glanced at the monks in the murloc village.

He found that there were indeed a large number of young monks in the village, and not all of them were dying of old age, so they chose to stay in the Murloc village.

Seeing that Shenghuo was silent, the murloc said again: "Besides, you don't have to be afraid of our murloc's strength."

"I've said it all, our murlocs are only physically able to reach the strength of a deep-dive monk, not the overall strength."

"For example, we murlocs can't use all kinds of supernatural powers and secret techniques, because most of us murlocs only have cultivation in the embryo-building stage."

"So, we usually release the breath of a deep-dive monk, and it's okay to scare people."

"If we really want to fight against others, we rely on our tyrannical physical body, and our real combat power is at best comparable to that of a monk in the blood pill stage!"

"To die is to rely on the cultivation of the embryo-building stage to be able to tie with the monks of the blood pill stage."

"On the other hand, if it is a murloc with a blood core cultivation base, he can barely protect himself from the hands of a deep-diving monk by relying on his tyrannical body."

"From my point of view, the two fellow daoists are monks of the blood pill stage, so the two fellow daoists don't have to be too afraid of the murlocs in the village."

"Everyone should be evenly matched, and no one can do anything to the other."

I don't know whether what the murloc said is true or not.
In order to verify the authenticity of what the other party said, Shenghuo played tricks on 'Tie Niu' and 'Yuan Xiujie' who were on the side, then posted on Zhong Ran, and whispered a few words to him.

The three of them understood what it meant, and immediately dispersed.

Among them, 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' used their non-existent characteristics to eavesdrop on what the murlocs and monks in the village were talking about.

Zhong Ran, on the other hand, took the initiative to chat with other murlocs and monks.

During this period, Survival always stood at the entrance of the village, so that if anything was wrong, he could immediately remind everyone and escape
lean less.

'Tie Niu' and 'Yuan Xiujie' who had collected the information returned to Survival and nodded to Survival one after another.

And Zhong Ran followed suit: "I just asked other people, and what they said is quite different from what this and this murloc said."

"Now, you should believe everything I say, right?" Having won the trust of Survivor and others, the murloc introduced himself, "Xiahuabei, this is the name I re-named after I became a murloc. As for the previous name, I have long forgotten it because it has been too long."

"Fellow Daoist Flower, I have one last question."

As far as the present is concerned, survival is just to stop doubting everything about Murloc Village for the time being.

But he still remained vigilant.

He asked the murloc Huabei, "Dare to ask you, if you try so hard to keep us, can you get some benefits from it?"
