Demon Spirit Vine Renders Meritorious Service

A sword pierced his chest!

Li Xiushan jerked violently, and his heart shattered!

He drew his Flying Sword and threw it on the ground, looked at Chen Changming with a relaxed smile, and slowly closed his eyes with an expression of endless relief.

Bang!

Not long after, Li Xiushan's body fell to the ground, and he died completely.

Luo Lan's eyes glistened, and tears silently streamed down her face.

Wasn't Li Xiushan's fate also her fate?

Chen Changming silently walked up, bowed to Li Xiushan's corpse, and then put it into a Storage Bag.

As for Li Xiushan's Storage Ring and Flying Sword, he stored them in his own Storage Ring.

Seeing Luo Lan's tears, Chen Changming felt a heavy weight in his heart and said in a deep voice, "Senior Sister, don't overthink it. Let me think of another way."

"Junior brother, it's no use. This Demonic Qi has too much of an effect on cultivators. I can only hold out for seven days at most."

Luo Lan gently shook her head.

Chen Changming remained silent. He slowly walked to the edge of the Demonic Qi Well, stared at the dark well opening, and fell into deep thought.

Why are members of the Black Lotus Sect not afraid of Demonic Qi?

What kind of Cultivation Method did they practice?

The Primordial Spirit of the Holy Mother Wusheng is still alive, but he could not find it in the Demonic Qi Well.

His inability to find the Holy Mother Wusheng kept him in a state of constant unease.

"Senior Sister, I'll go down and take another look."

Chen Changming said something and then flew into the Demonic Qi Well on his sword, heading straight to the bottom of the abyss.

He floated above the Ancient Demon's corpse, moving slowly.

"Help me!"

A faint female voice came from the Ancient Demon's head.

The Holy Mother Wusheng?

Chen Changming's expression turned cold as he held the Geng-Gold Sword, staring at the Ancient Demon's head.

At this moment, he was on the Ancient Demon's chest, only three or four meters away from its head.

The voice of the Holy Mother Wusheng rang out intermittently, as if she were running out of strength. "The Ancient Demon has a remnant consciousness and is devouring me!"

"To devour you, wouldn't that suit my purposes perfectly?"

Chen Changming gave a cold laugh.

"The Ancient Demon will devour me and regain partial control of my body, then it will kill you."

"The Holy Mother Wusheng said."

Chen Changming's expression was indifferent. He shook his head slightly, and in a flash, he flew away from the abyss and directly out of the Demonic Qi Well.

He wouldn't believe a word of the nonsense spouted by the Holy Mother Wusheng."

Judging from the timeline, after the Holy Mother Wusheng was killed by him, her Primordial Spirit entered the Demonic Qi Well, which means she must have already entered the body of the Ancient Demon at that time.

Several days have passed and she hasn't been devoured by the Ancient Demon, which shows that the Holy Mother Wusheng is not someone to be trifled with.

"Junior brother, what have you discovered down there?"

Luo Lan asked.

Chen Changming did not hide anything and told the story of the Holy Mother Wusheng.

Luo Lan's face stiffened, and she said thoughtfully, "This person is cunning and treacherous; she can manipulate the Demon-Slaying Alliance completely. We absolutely cannot trust her..."

"Yes, Senior Sister."

Chen Changming sighed softly. The moment he saw the Demonic Qi emanating from his Senior Sister's wounds, the pressure on his heart increased dramatically.

He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, lost in thought.

"If I were to exchange saving the Holy Mother Wusheng for the Black Lotus Sect's Cultivation Method to combat Demonic Qi, she would likely agree, allowing Senior Sister to expel the Demonic Qi from her body. However, if the Holy Mother Wusheng Holy Mother Wusheng gain control of the Ancient Demon's corpse, she would be the first to attack and kill us..."

Chen Changming frowned, a frantic stream of thoughts surging through his mind.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck me.

He remembered that the Demon Spirit Vine loved to eat the corpses of Demonized Beast. Demonic Qi had no harmful effect on the Demon Spirit Vine; on the contrary, it was a delicious condiment for it.

Chen Changming waved his hand.

The completely black Demon Spirit Vine fell to the ground. Sensing the Demonic Qi, the lush Demon Spirit Vine stretched out its tendrils, giving people a very pleasant feeling.

"Humans are possessed by Demonic Qi, can you exorcise it?"

Chen Changming asked in secret.

He had made a pact with the Demon Spirit Vine, so the two were connected at heart.

"Yes, you can."

The Demon Spirit Vine replied in a relaxed tone.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changming breathed a huge sigh of relief, a look of bewilderment appearing on his face.

It turns out that his spirit pet could absorb Demonic Qi.

The Demon Spirit Vine is half-demon, half-ghost, and half-spirit, so its ability to absorb Demonic Qi can be considered a talent.

"I deserve to die!"

Chen Changming slapped his forehead and muttered, "I should have thought of that sooner."

"Junior brother, is this the vine you planted?"

Seeing that the Black Vine looked somewhat familiar, Luo Lan asked in surprise.

"Yes, Senior Sister, it's actually a variant. It turned black after absorbing a lot of Demonized Beast."

Chen Changming walked over and squatted down beside Luo Lan, saying, "Senior Sister, it can absorb the Demonic Qi in your body."

"Absorb Demonic Qi?"

Luo Lan was both surprised and delighted upon hearing this, and quickly urged them on.

Chen Changming gave an order, and a root of the Demon Spirit Vine slithered over like a serpent. The fine roots at the far end burrowed into the wound, and the Demonic Qi was visibly absorbed.

The light of the Clear Light Art covered the wound like water, preventing new Demonic Qi from entering.

After absorbing the Demonic Qi, the Demon Spirit Vine lashed out with lightning speed, pulling its roots away.

Upon seeing this, Chen Changming immediately burst into laughter.

After so many days of trouble, the problem was finally solved so simply. He couldn't help but marvel at how the interdependence of all things in the world was actually preordained.

"I'm all better now, it's just superficial wounds."

Luo Lan looked at her junior brother with gratitude, tears of emotion silently streaming down her face.

"Senior Sister, you continue to recover. I'm going down again."

Chen Changming said.

He stored the Demon Spirit Vine in his Beast Taming Bracelet, then flew into the Demonic Qi Well.

Upon reaching the Ancient Demon's corpse, he once again unleashed the Demon Spirit Vine.

The Demon Spirit Vine sensed the aura of the Ancient Demon and immediately became excited. Like a hunting dog, it stretched its vines toward the Ancient Demon, constantly sniffing its scent, its massive vine body trembling slightly.

"I want to eat him."

The thought of the Demon Spirit Vine came to Chen Changming's mind.

"Give it a try."

Chen Changming replied.

The roots of the Demon Spirit Vine moved all over the Ancient Demon Ancient Demon's body, tightly wrapping it up like a dumpling.

"No, I can't eat that much."

"The Demon Spirit Vine spoke in Chen Changming's mind."

Just then, the voice of the Holy Mother Wusheng rang out once more. "Save me..."

The sound was even fainter than before.

Chen Changming ignored her, looking at the Ancient Demon's body, hesitating whether to try using the Geng-Gold Sword.

His hesitation stemmed from his fear that rashly attacking the Ancient Demon's corpse might lead to a misunderstanding, and he might inadvertently help the Holy Mother Wusheng, resulting in a greater loss for him.

Call!

The Ancient Demon suddenly moved and sat up abruptly.

Chen Changming was terrified, his face turning pale instantly. He leaped up on his sword and fled towards the outside of the Demonic Qi Well.

"I'm not moving anymore. I'm leaving him now."

The voice of the Demon Spirit Vine echoed in my mind.

Chen Changming waited silently for a while, then quietly flew back.

"Spirit Vein?"

He immediately noticed that where the Ancient Demon's upper body had been lying, there was an outlet of a Spirit Vein, from which dense Spiritual Qi was constantly gushing out.

Chen Changming suddenly realized.

Although the Ancient Demon was dead, its body continued to absorb Spirit Vein and release a large amount of Demonic Qi.

The voice of the Holy Mother Wusheng rang out.

"This Ancient Demon was... was a powerful expert who failed to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm. Even if he has regained just a little control over his body... he would be incredibly terrifying, far beyond what you and I can handle."

The Holy Mother Wusheng's voice was broken and intermittent. Finally, she seemed to be running out of strength, but still managed to shout, "If you... don't cooperate with me, we will all... die!"
