Chapter 581 Giant Beast
Gu Shiyi smiled very kindly and said,
"Nothing much, just tell me what is under this formation?"

The big rat's eyes rolled when he heard this.
"I really don't know what's buried there. If there really is something there, then only the witch god can know. He's the only one who has entered the depths of the ground!"

"Oh, is it so?"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at the big rat's tail, which had lost all its hair and was a disgusting pink color.

"Om..."

The hatchet on her back, which had been motionless, suddenly shook and flew up, then slashed at the rat's tail with a white light.
"what……"

The big rat watched helplessly as the hatchet fell down, unable to dodge. Then the blade flashed, and blood splattered everywhere. Gu Shiyi saw the opportunity early and jumped back to avoid the blood. He watched the big rat rolling on the ground in pain, with half of its tail also rolling beside it. Gu Shiyi clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"Come on, why are you still helping the witch god keep the secret when he's about to eat your blood?"

The big rat was in a really miserable state at this time. The wound on his lower abdomen was already serious, and this time he lost half of his tail. Finally, he could not maintain the body-borrowing technique. After a scream, his body crawled on the ground. His strong body turned into a skinny old man, groaning in pain on the ground. A gray rat also fell beside him, and it also lay on the ground like him, groaning in pain, its stomach heaving, and it looked like it was breathing out more than breathing in, and it was about to die.

Gu Shiyi laughed again.
"Tu Zuo Wu Xiang, if you meet Tan Guan now, I'm afraid you will have to give me this body of flesh and blood!"

Tu Zuo raised his head in hatred and glared at Gu Shiyi fiercely, but Gu Shiyi was not afraid at all. After the two looked at each other coldly, Tu Zuo finally backed down and asked while panting,
"If I really told you... would you really let me go?"

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"You saw it too. It wasn't hard for me to break the star pillar just now. As long as you said so... we'll find another star pillar later and I'll break it again!"

After thinking about it, he added,

"If I'm not mistaken, if one of the twelve star pillars is missing, the power of the magic circle will be reduced by one point. Breaking the next one shouldn't be more difficult than the first one, right?"

Gu Shiyi was not wrong. Tu Zuo thought for a while before saying,
"This formation was actually used by the immortals to suppress a prehistoric giant beast..."

"A prehistoric monster?"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows, Tu Zuo nodded and said slowly,
"You have real dragons and real phoenixes in the Central Plains, so can't we have prehistoric giant beasts?"

"That's true. What is that prehistoric beast?"

Tu Zuo shook his head.

"This... I really don't know. I only know... it once ran to the Central Plains and wreaked havoc for a while. The immortals couldn't do anything about it, so they gathered people and injured it. After it fled back here, the immortals tracked it down, but they still couldn't kill it. They could only suppress it under the magic circle. It has been who knows how many tens of thousands of years now!"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows,
"It has been countless tens of thousands of years, and it is still alive?"

What kind of powerful beast is it that even real dragons and real phoenixes cannot survive it?

Tu Zuo nodded and said,
"When the Witch God discovered this magic circle, his body was still very healthy and his magic was still at its peak. He once went into the depths of the magic circle alone, but came back covered in wounds. He did not tell us about what happened underground. He just sealed the entrance and never went down again. After that, he spent many years refining the eye of the formation into his own body..."

"Tsk tsk... your witch god is really a ruthless person!"

To refine oneself into the magic circle is to tie oneself to death in the magic circle. One will not die as long as the magic circle is destroyed. Although one can borrow power from it, this will also tie the witch god into the magic circle, and one cannot leave this place as long as the magic circle is destroyed!

Tu Zuo hummed,

"He was originally bound by the rules of heaven and earth and could not leave this place. After fusing himself with the magic circle, he could use the magic circle to absorb the power of everyone on the ground..."

It was for this reason that the Wushen Cult, which was originally unknown in the wilderness, began to develop rapidly.

However, the success of the Wushen Cult was due to the magic circle, and its failure was also due to the magic circle. When the Wushen found that his power was growing stronger and stronger, but he was still trapped here, he became unwilling to accept this, and planned to escape from the magic circle and leave here!

However, he had been fused with the magic circle for too long, and his body had been branded, so he had no way to leave. So after racking his brains, he came up with a solution.
"...He began to think of ways to borrow other people's bodies, and thus trained generation after generation of witch ministers and witch kings. Each generation of witch kings became the body of his soul..."

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"Isn't this just taking over someone else's body?"

Tu Zuo nodded. "You call it seizing another's body, but the Central Plains cultivators who seize another's body will drop their realm. The method that the Witch God wants is to use his physical body to carry all his power. Not only will his realm not drop, but he will become even more powerful. Only in this way can he conquer the entire Witch God's land, then the Central Plains, and then overseas..."

Gee...

Gu Shiyi said that this witch god has great ambitions!
However, he must have stayed in the wilderness for too long and became a little arrogant. In Gu Shiyi's opinion, his realm is not much higher than his own. If he goes to the Central Plains in this state, I am afraid that he will be pinned to the ground by many high-level cultivators and taught a lesson!

So Gu Shiyi smiled coldly.
"He really has rarely been out of the house... that's why he dares to speak so arrogantly..."

After a pause, he asked again,
"So now he is just missing half of your blood essence?"

Tu Zuo nodded.

"For hundreds of years or even decades, he would find a body to possess among the Witch King or the Witch Prime Minister. However, perhaps because he did not comprehend it thoroughly, each body could not last long, and he still had no way to take away all the power, until... this time..."

Tu Zuo sighed, took a deep breath and said,
"Because he was never satisfied with the body he borrowed, he came up with a plan. He decided to create a new body... and then put his soul into this new body..."

"In a new body?"

Gu Shiyi frowned, and his mind moved, as if he had thought of something. Just as he was about to think about it, he heard the local monk say,

"He chose Tan Guan and asked him to give birth to a new body. The flesh and blood he used were those of the two witch kings and two witch ministers, and my blood essence was the last bit of strength. He established the Witch God Cult to give us strength and asked us to worship him day and night in order to gradually become one with his soul. Now, as long as he absorbs all of my blood essence, the new body in Tan Guan's belly will be born. He will have a new body and all the strength. From now on, he can leave the wilderness and fulfill his ambition!"

Gee!

It seems that this witch god is still superior to Granny Orchid. Granny Orchid cannot break the rules of heaven and earth and can only retreat to a corner, but he has thought of a way!
Of course, his method was extremely evil. He used the method built up by countless lives to avoid the underworld, the six reincarnations, the mark of the magic circle, the laws of heaven and earth. He preserved all his strength and his intact soul and regained a new body!
Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and thought about it carefully, then suddenly laughed.
"I guess... after so many years, the great beast beneath the ground should be almost dead, or about to die, right?"

The muscles on Tu Zuo's face twitched, and he glanced at Gu Shiyi and said,

"Maybe……"

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"You didn't want to tell me even though you were running for your life. Maybe you thought you could take advantage of me in the future?"

Tu Zuo was silent for a while before he slowly said,
"That giant beast is dying. After it dies, the power in its body will dissipate. I think... the witch god's idea is to absorb that power after he has a new body. This way, he will become more powerful!"

This has been made very clear. The prehistoric giant beast is about to die. When its power collapses, anyone can take advantage of it. Tu Zuo also wants to take advantage of it. He doesn't want to tell Gu Shiyi because he is afraid that Gu Shiyi, a powerful cultivator from the Central Plains, will take the biggest piece of the cake!
Gu Shiyi figured it out, and narrowed his eyes at that moment, and then said,

"Now...if you tell me where the underground entrance is, I will break another star pillar and let you leave here!"

Tu Zuo had been tricked by Gu Shiyi once before, so he naturally didn't believe it this time. However, the current situation didn't allow him to disbelieve it, so he struggled to get up and took Gu Shiyi out of the main hall. This time they walked quite far, and it took them half an hour before Tu Zuo stopped and pushed open a door in front of them.

"This is it..."

A hall similar to the previous one, inconspicuous. After entering, Tu Zuo pointed to the pattern above his head and said,
"The entrance is just up there..."

Gu Shiyi looked up and saw a huge spider carved on the top of the hall!

Gu Shiyi squinted his eyes and took a closer look.
No, this is not a carved spider, this is a real one!

It lay there motionless, as if it was carved out of stone. Its body color blended with the color of the surrounding rocks, without even a trace of breath. Even Gu Shiyi was almost fooled by it. Tu Zuodao,

"This one is a pair with the one in the main hall. They are strange beasts that lived here a few years ago. After being tamed by the witch god, they are used to guard the main hall and the underground entrance..."

Gu Shiyi nodded. This spider was poisonous, but there was nothing else that was powerful about it. Tu Zuo took two steps forward, sat on the ground, and said to Gu Shiyi while panting,
"I've also told you the entrance. Now..."

Before he could finish his words, the huge spider above his head, which had been motionless, suddenly moved. It raised one of its front legs.
"Hiss..."

He shouted at Gu Shiyi threateningly. Both of them were stunned. Tu Zuo shouted in shock.

"Hurry, he's here! He...actually came...He's at his weakest right now, how come he recovered so quickly?"
