Chapter 346: Breaking the Path of Cultivation

 Chen Shi took the sword energy that killed the shepherd ghost into his body. This sword energy contained the blood and energy of the shepherd ghost. When it was melted into the body with great force, strange textures appeared on his bones, entangled and intertwined, flickering

Chen Shi was inexplicably shocked. His head flew up from his neck and came to his body. After stepping forward, he looked at these strange textures, "They are very similar to the strange textures on Mu Gui's body that were used to resist me!"

He looked carefully, and he had already noticed the strange textures on Mu Gui's body. Those textures have incredible power and can block his sword energy, so that the sword energy cannot hurt Mu Gui at all.

 What is even more peculiar is that the texture on the body of the Shepherd Ghost and the texture on the Zhangtian Iron Ruler should come from the same source! It's just that the texture on the Zhangtian Iron Ruler is more profound and difficult to decipher, and the information contained is more complex.

"Strange. The Zhangtian Iron Ruler is clearly a prehistoric remnant, and the textures on it should also be traces of prehistoric civilization. But these textures are from the body of the shepherd ghost."

 Chen Shi was puzzled. Why are prehistoric civilizations similar to the strange textures on the shepherd ghost's body? Could it be.

   He suddenly came up with a bold idea, could it be that prehistoric civilization was not extinct? In fact, this civilization has always existed, and the creatures in the underworld are their descendants?

 But this idea was too outrageous. Chen Shi laughed, shook his head, and thought to himself: "The creatures of the underworld are ghosts, and they look like a barbaric race at first glance. How could they be the race that created a glorious prehistoric civilization?"

 The blood on his bones disappeared, but those strange textures were still there, lasting for a while before gradually fading away.

Chen Shi activated the Blood Lake Scripture a little, and the peculiar texture on the bones lit up again! "Did the Blood Lake Scripture absorb the ability of the Shepherd Ghost?"

  Chen Shi thought that the texture on the Shepherd Ghost's body should be the power of the bloodline that Peng Ju mentioned, referring to the power hidden in the bloodline. Races in the underworld often have this kind of wonderful power. When they grow to a certain age, the power in their bloodline will awaken, giving them some special abilities.

 Blood Lake Scripture can absorb the power of the enemy's blood. This kind of skill has never been heard of by Chen Shi!

 The excess blood flowed from his bones into the blood and tears behind his head. His tears of blood have become much larger, and I am afraid that in a day or two, they will be able to form a blood pool.

Chen Shi saw something like a ghost struggling in the pool of blood. He took off his head and looked at it. He vaguely looked like the shepherd ghost, but it was covered in blood and he couldn't see carefully.

 Mugui seemed to be struggling to escape from the pool of blood, but was dragged back into the pool of blood again and again by the mysterious force.

  Chen Shi shuddered, this technique is too evil. But it’s so powerful and the cultivation speed is so fast!

 During this period, Pengju had killed the remaining animals one by one, and his wings absorbed the blood of the animals and tempered himself. The way he practices the Blood Lake Scripture is slightly different from Chen Shi's. :

  Part of the blood he absorbed was used to enhance the blood of his physical body. The power of the blood was stimulated, and the tips of Peng Ju's wings and feathers became golden and extremely sharp. The feathers in other places are still earthy brown and black, with occasionally a few miscellaneous hairs.

 The Blood Lake Scripture improved his bloodline and strengthened his physical body, making him stronger and more powerful than before.

  Pengju was worried and looked around. There were many bird people here. The birds like to watch the excitement. Just now they were killing ghosts and animals, and these birds saw it.

 Shepherd ghosts are used to herd livestock for wealthy families, and wealthy families will definitely look for them. With a little investigation, you can know the appearance of the murderer.

  Chen Shi felt a little guilty and said: "Pengju, I have caused you trouble in this matter..."

  Pengju shook his head and said: "You can understand my family's martial arts, and then you can use them to Tell me, you are a great favor to me, how can you say that there are many pengs here, and they don’t recognize me?

The two of them hurried away, and the pengs in the trees watched them go away.

After walking for more than half a day, Peng Ju said happily: "My home is ahead!" At this time, a huge prehistoric relic came into Chen Shi's eyes

It was a large four-legged cauldron, made entirely of black iron, rusty and crooked, with three legs deeply inserted into the foot of the mountain and mostly buried by the mountains.

 They passed in front of the four-legged iron cauldron. There was a withered skeleton sitting in the cauldron. Sitting there, he was hundreds of feet tall, chained and tied to the cauldron.

 Although the withered bones are big, the iron tripod is even bigger. The withered bones exuded a torrential aura and looked extremely dangerous.

 As they passed by, the chains made a rattling sound, the skeletal head moved slowly on the neck bones, and there were flames fluttering in the faint eye sockets, as if looking at them.

Pengju tried to stay as far away from the withered bones as possible, as if he was worried that the thing might come alive at any time, and pointed at a large locust tree in front of him.

 Shu said: "Our village is right there! I am the fastest flyer in our village, so I can find an errand job in the East Palace!"

 Chen Shi withdrew his gaze and said: "You work as an errand in the East Palace, don't you have a priesthood? I see that every herding ghost has a small yaksha to burn incense for him."
/>
Peng Ju shook his head and said: "We who run errands and deliver letters will die outside if we are not careful. Where is the god? I have been a messenger in Dongying for two years. There are seven messengers with me, and I am the only one who died."

Chen Shiran, how can life in the underworld be more miserable than in the world of the sun? They finally arrived at Pengju's home.

Peng and his family lived on a locust tree in front of a cliff. There were thirty or forty bird's nest-shaped houses hanging on this locust tree, which were not much different from the bird's nests seen on the road.

  Peng Qian fluttered his wings and flew up. Chen Shi followed him and came to a bird's nest in Juzhong. Peng Ju smiled and said, "Sister, I'm back alive!"

  He entered the room, but did not find his sister, and said, "Chen Shi, please wait for me here for a while. I'll ask the neighbors if they know where my sister has gone."

  Chen Shi nodded.

  Pengju flapped his wings and flew to other bird's nests.

 Chen Shi took a look around the bird's nest. It can be said that the bird's nest has four walls and three rooms. Two of them are where the brother and sister sleep. They are just nests made of dead branches of vegetation without any decoration. The other room is both a kitchen and a living room, and is kept very clean.

 Pengju's sister should be a clean-minded Pengniao. Although her home is simple, it is tidy.

  He came outside the bird's nest and looked at the huge iron cauldron, thinking: "The aura of this prehistoric remnant is very strong. Who is the withered skeleton in the cauldron? Why was it suppressed in the cauldron?"

  What made him even more strange was that the withered bones in the cauldron still exuded a monstrous aura. Could it be that this withered skeleton is still alive? Just when he thought of this, he suddenly felt a strange smell behind him. He turned around and was stunned.

 I saw the locust tree where Pengju settled standing in front of the cliff. Chen Shi suddenly saw a pair of huge feet hanging from the sky behind the locust tree.

 Chen Shi flew up and came to the top of the locust tree, gradually seeing clearly the owner of those feet. I saw hanging on the cliff facing the locust tree, the body of a god about ten liters tall

   The god had a green face and fangs, had four arms, was covered in golden armor, and his head was lowered.

 There was a black iron spear inserted into the god's chest, which penetrated him and nailed him to the cliff. Clouds and mist were floating around his waist, and the blood on his body had not yet dried and was still fresh.

  Chen Shi was shocked, calmed down, looked in other directions, and saw a second god-man, who was also nailed to the cliff. However, this god-man had a bird's head and human body, and his throat was pierced by a spear.

The corners of his eyes twitched, and he looked in the direction of the cliff. He saw that the length of the cliff had no end in sight, and it ran from east to west for an unknown number of miles. Every few miles, a god was crucified on the cliff. One after another, he looked at the number of gods: "Why were these gods crucified here?"

He was shocked inexplicably. At this time, Peng Ju's voice came: "Chen Shi! Chen Shi! "I'm here!" Chen Shi responded quickly.

Peng Dai looked at a small bird with a beak and a human face. It flapped its wings and flew up, landed on a big leaf, and said, "I found my sister. The neighborhood here is not peaceful, and she lives in a neighbor's house. I want to go to the big pond to return to my life. The big pond is on Wuliang Cliff. Do you want to come with me?

The little bird looked at Chen Shi curiously, and was very interested in this marrow.

Chen Shi turned around and said in disbelief: "Have you seen this? Pengju asked doubtfully: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Chen Shi's eyes widened: "Why are the bodies of these gods hanging here? Don't you think it's strange?

Pengju said with a smile: "It's been hanging here all the time. Why is it strange? They were hanging here when I was born. I also asked the elders in the village, and they said that these bodies have been hanging here for several years. "

Chen Shi calmed down, looked at the bodies of these gods, but still couldn't calm down, and murmured: "How did they die? "I don't know."

Pengju said, "You haven't seen anything scarier than a ghost. Last year, I was ordered to deliver a message to Dongying and came to a place called Yinquan Sea. There were giant trees hanging upside down from the sky. Under the tree, there was a giant coffin with a tall stem facing the spring of Yinquan Sea. From time to time, a giant household flew out of the giant coffin and disappeared. In the sky, it's extremely terrifying. "

Chen Shi looked strange and thought: "The place he was talking about should be Jinghu Villa. The so-called giant coffin is the coffin built by Grandpa and the others. The situation when the Giant House flew out should be the situation when I or Xiao Wangsun and the others came out of the coffin."

 Having said that, when he looked at the house of gods hanging on Wuliang Cliff, he was still inexplicably shocked.

  尚若在阳间,这些神人只怕便是大乘境的修为,甚至可能更高! "He thought secretly. Chen Shi thought for a while and said, "Pengju, where did you see the Yinquan Sea?" Kanshu Search Xiuheng

  Pengju raised his hand and pointed to the distance, saying: "I flew tens of thousands of miles over there. Seeing the Yinquan Sea. Chen Shi frowned. The Yinquan Sea is the Mirror Lake in Qianyang Mountain. It can be seen that the place they are in is indeed Qianyang Mountain, but the underworld corresponding to Qianyang Mountain is too weird.

 At this moment, suddenly the palm of a god's body moved. Chen Shi pointed at the hand and exclaimed: "He's still alive!"

  As soon as he said this, the god suddenly opened his mouth and roared, the roar was like thunder, and the rumble echoed under Wuliang Cliff!

The man of God struggled hard, and his four arms grabbed the iron spear on his chest, trying to pull out the iron spear.

The iron spear suddenly shined brightly, pressing the man of God heavily against the cliff. The man of God struggled for a moment, and then became motionless again. "Sometimes it happens like this."

  Pengju was used to it and didn't think there was anything strange about it. He said, "Chen Shi, do you want to go to Tianchi with me? Chen Shi shook his head: "I'll stay here. If I go too far, I'm worried about my mother-in-law. It's hard for me to summon my soul back when I'm summoning my soul."

 H Peng said to his sister quietly: "Although he is very powerful, he is probably not very smart. He doesn't know that he is dead yet. Peng Yan'er, you have to take good care of him!"

 Xiao Pengniao took the matter seriously and nodded quickly. Peng Ju gave Peng Yan'er a few more words and said to Chen Shi: "You stay here and wait for me for a few days. I will come back after I recover." After that, he flapped his wings and flew away.

  Peng Yan'er said to Chen Shi Said: "Don't stay in the tree. It's too high here and there's always strong wind." A red date was soaked in it and he said: "These are the dates I picked from the date trees in Egouling. They can drive away the cold. You can try it."

 Good tea. My cold is much better. "Chen Shi put down the tea cup.

 Peng Yan'er looked at his two wet feet and reported: "I forgot you... How about I offer you some incense?"

 Peng Yan'er smiled and said, "No need."

 Peng Yan'er rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Shall I make you some clothes? I picked up some colorful feathers from Jinji Mountain!" Chen Shi shuddered when he thought of the chicken feathers all over his body, and quickly refused, saying with a smile: "Peng Yan'er, you don't need to be busy. I don't need to eat or drink these days, I have to practice for a few days." However, Peng Yan'er always wanted to take care of him, either getting him something delicious or something fun to do. Her personality was much more lively than Peng Ju's, and she couldn't stay idle.

Chen Shi couldn't bear to be disturbed, so he simply took some time to pass the Blood Lake Scripture to Peng Yan'er.

  What surprised Chen Shi was that Peng Yan'er's qualifications and understanding were much higher than Peng Ju's. There were divine words hidden in the Blood Lake Sutra, which were extremely complicated and difficult to learn. However, after Chen Shi taught it once or twice, Peng Yan'er mastered the divine words.

  Chen Shi taught her the exercise route again, and she quickly understood it, and it didn't take long for her to master it. "This girl's qualifications and understanding are so good!"

  Chen Shi was moved by his pity for Cai Cai, and taught her how to mobilize her own strength, bless her body, and also taught her the secrets of swordsmanship.

  Peng Yan'er practiced diligently outside the Bird's Nest and made rapid progress. "She is a good material for practice." Chen Shi said in his heart.

"Peng Yan'er, how did your family's Blood Lake Scripture become lost?" Chen Shi asked. Peng Yan'er said abruptly: "We are illiterate."

  Chen Shi smiled and said: "Then, let the literate Peng Niao teach you."

  Peng Yan'er shook his head and said: "Other tribesmen are also illiterate." Chen Shi was confused and asked: "So, are there any literate people?"

  Peng Yan'er shook his head and said: "My brother said that all the ghosts and gods in Tianchi Kingdom are illiterate. There are many exercises similar to the Blood Lake Scripture, but if everyone doesn't recognize them, they won't practice them."
 Chen Shi Pinran: "Are you saying that all the ghosts and gods in Tianchi Kingdom are illiterate? Peng Yaner nodded.

 Chen Shi fell into deep thought. He always felt that this situation was somewhat similar to that of God cutting off tribulations and ascending to the second realm. But Guanchi Kingdom is

  Abandon all the ability to read, and Allah is to change the path of practice
