Lord of Immortals

Chapter 5 Ge Xian wants to pick up the body

Looking at the cast-iron statue that was pretending to be wearing a Taoist robe and looking like an immortal king, Ge Xian felt absurd in his heart, and at the same time he also became very interested in the Ten Thousand Fa Sect.

The ancient ferocious beast [Qiongqi] who was fond of cannibalism was transformed into a spiritual god and heavenly king under its packaging, and was favored by the human race.

What about the leader of Wanfa?What does its true form look like?

What about the other gods in the religion?Are they all ancient evil gods or evil beasts?
Of course, what worries Ge Xian the most is this path of cultivation that has obviously become the mainstream in this world. Is this the case for everyone?

"The old man in the tea shop just now said that those who have awakened their talents can enter Taoism and practice as long as they find the corresponding [True Spirit Hall]."

"Obviously, both Fuyang County Magistrate and Qiantang County Magistrate were born in this way. It is said that the latter was born with tiger stripes and tiger eyes, so his counterpart is the Gu-Eating Spirit God."

"What about me, I have two talents: super-sensation and charm... Could it be that the corresponding spiritual god is the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox? Do I really want to be a male Daji? No."

"If it cannot be avoided, where should we go to find the Fox Temple?"

Ge Xian gradually revealed his distasteful and upright nature. He shouted that he did not want to be a male fox, but he was already thinking about how to find a way out.

It was a coincidence that the next moment he heard a living example:
But it was the temple blessing that was obviously a charlatan. Xu was ordered by the county magistrate to play the role of "storyteller" in addition to the temple blessing.

It's just that it tells a story.

It was Lu Hualong, who was nicknamed the Magistrate of Cutting County, who had made great achievements and a glorious history in the first half of his life.

There was a lot of embellishment in the lecture for the master, but many county residents, including Ge Xian, were listening with interest.

"My master is the son of the Lu family in Gusu. One day, my mistress had a dream about the Gu-eating spirit god. Therefore, when my master was born, he had tiger stripes all over his body. He even got a pair of tiger eyes that could subjugate hundreds of ghosts. He was able to do so even when he was still in his infancy. Ignoring the difference between yin and yang, you can see ghosts and demons, and the power of a tiger can subdue the demons and ghosts within a ten-mile radius, ensuring the peace of your home."

"He showed magical powers when he was young. He became a knight at a young age, and won many young knights to join him. He conquered demons and protected a party. Later, he became a Jinshi. He was both civil and military, and became famous in Jiuxiang."

"Finally, under the guidance of the Gu-eating Spirit, I will cultivate to the right level, and I will soon be able to transcend the world..."

In the crowd, Ge Xian was trying to find out the clues about Lu Hualong's practice from the disgusting compliments from the temple blessings, and planned to quietly guide them and introduce some rhythm.

But at this moment, his expression suddenly changed.

Suppressing the thought of raising his head and looking around, he continued to use his extraordinary senses to carefully sense and identify the extraordinary auras that suddenly appeared around him.

In my original perception, there were no extraordinary people within a few hundred meters, they were all ordinary county citizens.

As the temple blessings became more and more exciting, he unknowingly attracted a large number of extraordinary beings to approach. In Ge Xian's keen sense, these extraordinary beings who did not know whether they were humans or ghosts, every time they heard "Lu Hualong" "Three words will overflow with strong malice.
"They are pretending to rest outside the temple, dressed up in weird ways, just like the caravan coming from the border of western Hunan. Without exception, they are all extraordinary beings, and there is no one who knows what is hidden in their carriages. They are cold and stiff, lifeless, and have no essence or blood. The flowing movement...could it be something like zombies?"

"There are also those dozen beggars in the corner. Their qi and blood are different, and they are even more like tigers and leopards. Could it be that they are a gang of beggars, right?"

"The most terrifying thing is the group of performers who come here shouting, men, women, and children..."

When he sensed the third group of people, Ge Xian's heart was filled with warning signs. He didn't dare to look any further and quickly averted his eyes.

At this moment, before he could even see the faces of those people clearly, he sensed in his mind masses of squirming flesh, rotting lymph nodes, etc. At the same time, his own body was also about to move, as if it was about to become diseased, which prompted him to not only withdraw his gaze , even the super sense is temporarily turned off.

While muttering "What the hell" in my mind, I noticed something was wrong and wanted to retreat first.

It's just that Ge Xian had just exited the temple, and before he had time to retreat behind everyone, something unexpected happened again.

"The magistrate is here!"

"All the people will avoid it and recite the above name, praising my Lord's kindness."

Following the shouts of the ghosts, another more luxurious honor guard team came from the direction of the county government office on the main street. No one, including Ge Xian, would look at the ghosts, and even did not even give the money immediately. They went to rob, but all their eyes were on the shrine in the middle of the luxurious team.

Behind the layers of gorgeous curtains, a tall man with a majestic appearance sat clearly.

Without inspiration, Ge Xian could feel the unprecedented danger from him, and immediately guessed that this person must be the [Gang-cutting County Magistrate Lu Hualong].

But what surprised him was that Lu Hualong was not wearing a county magistrate's robe, but a colorful and eye-catching floral dress. This robe would look gaudy even if it were worn by a woman.

But Lu Hualong not only wore it, but also had no lining. He just wore the floral dress openly, revealing most of his muscular body.

But at this moment, no one was looking at these. Everyone's eyes were attracted by the two completely different ghosts on the terrace in front of the shrine.

A ghost, born extremely well, wearing a snow-white gown. If he were intact, anyone would praise him as a good scholar. But now, this scholar has disheveled hair, his face is stained with blood, and he is covering his missing nose and wailing.

The other ghost was born extremely ugly, with a face full of scabies and black hair. He was vicious and cunning, but he was rewarded, surrounded by treasures and beauties, and was very happy.

Before anyone could take a closer look, Lu Hualong, who was dressed in colorful clothes, seemed to be suffering from some "evil disease". There was a foreign body stirring in his strong body, tiger stripes appeared in the blink of an eye, sharp thorns appeared on his back, and sarcoma bulged under his ribs. It seems that it is about to stretch out, and the human face seems to be transformed into a tiger's head.

He heard him roar, and then he suddenly jumped out, and whipped the scholar in white with a whip soaked in salt water. After the whip, a happy look appeared on his face, and he rewarded the ugly man with another bag. Wealth.

This scene left the county residents dumbfounded and puzzled.

Until among the crowd, a lowered voice came to explain:

"The scholar is called Gongsun Xing. He is Magistrate Lu's friend and military advisor for many years. Mr. Gongsun deserves credit for the magistrate's current achievements. But for some reason, he hated the magistrate and became a traitor, and he still has to suffer this misfortune."

"As for that ugly man, he is a well-known cunning, lazy and rogue villain in Qiantang. How could he get into the eyes of the county magistrate and get so many rewards?"

"I think the county magistrate can't suppress the changes. Should we escape...?"

"Where can we escape? Is there a more peaceful place than Qiantang within a thousand miles? Even though County Magistrate Lu has become weird and likes eating meat, at least he can protect our lives."

……

What he saw and heard made Ge Xian extremely uneasy.

He could guess that something was very wrong with Lu Hualong. Compared with the past, his temperament had changed drastically, and he had inexplicably gained more eccentricities such as "good flower clothes", "love to eat butt meat", "evil loyalty and worship of adultery", etc. It seemed that he was gradually no longer able to Control your own demonic body.

Looking again at the supernatural beings with malicious intentions who were approaching in the crowd, Ge Xian's mind suddenly recalled a rumor he had heard before: the magistrate of Fuyang County followed the [Wuqiao Spirit God] who was also one of the four spiritual gods. 】, went crazy for no reason, and ate half of the county's population...

A bad guess emerged in an instant.

"not good!"

The moment Ge Xian sensed something was wrong, he immediately started taking action.

With extremely fast steps, he retreated first and behind everyone.

Still feeling it was not enough, he retreated to the street corner again.And his unfounded omen came true the next moment.

The group that Ge Xian sensed earlier was dressed in strange costumes and consisted of men, women and children. Suddenly, a tall and thin old man with white hair and a childish face walked out and shouted loudly to Lu Hualong:
"I've heard the name of Magistrate Lu for a long time. It's impossible for ordinary people to maintain peace in such troubled times."

"We have come all the way to present a [Spiritual and Flesh Song] to the county magistrate to praise his merits."

After saying this, he didn't even wait for Lu Hualong to respond.

The people behind them took out musical instruments such as bone whistles, bone flutes, guqins, and konghou, and began to play.

In an instant, Ge Xian's super sense was passively activated.

A strong omen came to mind: "You can't listen to that music, you can't break free, your body and soul will collapse, and your desires will surge."

Without hesitation, Ge Xian pulled off a rag to block his ears, and then grabbed a handful of wet mud and stuffed it tightly. Even so, the residual sound of the last breath that entered his ears still made Ge Xian's heart beat wildly and his desires stirred.

And when he looked back, a scene like "Carnival in Hell" came into his eyes:
All the people in the county, even the demons, are trapped in illusions of desire, swaying madly.

And where are the people in the team that plays the music?

The so-called men, women, old and young are clearly demons covered in "human skin". In other words, they are all human beings. Due to their cultivation, they all now look the same: pale, but with "human skin" appearing everywhere. "Flesh and fleshy growth", or an embryo, or a chimeric organ, or swollen limbs, etc.

Affected by the music they played, Lu Hualong, who was already a little out of control, finally showed his true colors.

Amid the roar that shocked people for ten miles, a tiger-shaped demon wearing a floral dress that was very similar to the [Gu-Eating Spirit God] in the temple jumped out and began to devour the surrounding county people like crazy.

Except for those who escaped quickly like Ge Xian, or who were already on the edge, now they had the opportunity to flee in all directions.

Few of the other county residents who joined in the fun were spared.

Seeing this, the old man at the head was overjoyed, stroking his palms and saying with a smile:

"That's how it should be. Eat more, eat better. The food Gu spirit fetus in your body will be a great source of nourishment."

"Let's do it. Cut off his limbs first and lock the spine to prevent him from escaping Qiantang. After all, he practices the "Gu-Eating Immortal Technique" and his moral practice is much better than that of the Fuyang County Magistrate."

With a wave of his hand, the other two groups also appeared.

First, those beggars who were still sick at first suddenly flew towards Lu Hualong as if they were escaping from the ground.

Then came the walking merchants, the bells rang, the carriages were broken into pieces, and zombies covered in rotten bodies and filled with stench jumped towards Lu Hualong.

Ge Xian kept looking back and listening to these while fleeing with other county residents.

It dawned on him in an instant: "The previous tragedy in Fuyang County was also caused by this group of people. What's the origin? It seems that they are specifically hunting down the [demon officials] of the Dayuan Dynasty, using their demonic bodies as a great tonic? Lu Hualong just So frustrated?"

At this time, Ge Xian's super sense was activated. As soon as he thought about this, he couldn't help but feel Lu Hualong, wanting to know how good the cut-crotch magistrate was.

Unexpectedly, this peep made Ge Xian's face turn pale immediately, he made a puff and vomited blood.

"Ms. Ganlin... so scary!"

"You are already a tiger demon, why should you pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger?"

Ge Xian's complaints haven't stopped yet.

In front of the temple, mutations reappeared.

The demon Lu Hualong, who was originally crazy and devouring the county people, suddenly swelled several times when the beggars and zombies attacked him. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a tiger that was almost as big as a temple and overlooked the entire Qiantang County. The demon appeared, with a flap of membrane wings behind it, and a fishy storm gathered, blowing away all the beggars and zombies in the blink of an eye.

Then, there was wild laughter:
"Hahaha... I'm still wondering where the monsters came from and killed my good brother. It turns out to be a bunch of remnants of the [Eternal Life Sect] like you, plus a few useless beggars and a few dead bodies."

"It's also stupid as hell. I think I'm just like that idiot from Fuyang County. I can't suppress the spirit fetus, causing my heart and soul to split, and I'll become a fire demon, and I'll be easily slaughtered by you."

"I'd like to thank you this time. The Spirit God doesn't despise the dead body of a beggar, but the flesh and blood of ten immortal believers, plus the [Tai Sui Gu Insects] conceived in the bodies of a county's children, are enough to help me get rid of the dead body of a beggar." The old man is asking for advanced sources and advanced techniques."

"Today is auspicious, I will completely stabilize the realm of mortal transformation."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Hualong suddenly retracted his clawed membrane wings, and with a pop, he actually deafened his ears.

Then I heard him shouting in the sky, which could be heard throughout Qiantang County.

In Ge Xian's disbelieving gaze, all the children within sight collapsed to the ground, and colorful Gu worms with bodies like glass jelly and exuding a strong meaty aroma crawled out of their bodies. They all flapped their wings and flew towards the direction of the Gu-Eating Spirit Temple.

And there, a tragic killing was taking place.

……

A few streets away, Ge Xian, who had escaped, looked at the area from a distance.

Judging from the sensory feedback, the balance of victory and defeat is completely in favor of Lu Hualong.

His demonic body, immersed in killing, is still covered in colorful clothes, but it doesn't feel funny at all at this time, it only makes people feel terrified.

Ge Xian had no doubt that if "Lu Hualong" were allowed to eat, it might be able to wipe out the whole county's population overnight.

Ordinarily, he should go home quickly at this time, pack up his belongings and run away.

But inexplicably, a strange light shone in his eyes, and he turned his gaze to the area around the temple.

He had seen it clearly before, remembered it clearly, and had no errors or omissions in his perception.

"In this siege, the main force and controllers are obviously the monks called the remnants of the [Eternal Life Cult]."

"And those beggars who practice weird martial arts, and people from Xiangxi who control zombies... are all cannon fodder."

"The first one to meet them suffered heavy casualties. Many of them were swept away by the poison storm and were seriously injured. They didn't know whether they were alive or dead."

"If I can miss one or two, I will torture you for the secret first, and then touch the corpse. In this chaotic world of demons, I will not be blind again."

"Just in time, the temporary special powers I absorbed one by one are about to disappear, so we can't waste them..."

As his thoughts flickered, Ge Xian suddenly moved.
