Volume One: Entering the Tao with Poison Chapter 122: Determined
Female Ghost's words made Luo Mu's palm holding the skull tremble, and a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face!
When Female Ghost described the skull, Luo Mu remembered the skull he got from Bai Lin Storage Bag that day. In addition, Nine Transformations Demon God's technique was also found in this skull, so Luo Mu had to connect the two together.
Sure enough, from Female Ghost's voiceless scream, Luo Mu could finally confirm that this object must be the skull of the original Holy Lord!
If Luo Mu dares to take out this thing in front of Female Ghost, he is not afraid that Female Ghost will dare to snatch it. If Female Ghost really has that ability, he will not be forced to do this by Luo Mu, and all the secrets in his heart will be unearthed.
Before Female Ghost's physical body Nascent Soul had not dissipated, Luo Mu had no doubt that the other party could kill him with just a finger. But now, Luo Mu can be fully sure that this Female Ghost does not have that ability.
"How come you have this thing in your hand!!!" Female Ghost had a ferocious look on his face and said to Luo Mu fiercely.
It's no wonder that Female Ghost has such an expression. Whoever it is, what he risked his life to get has actually become someone else's bag. I'm afraid it would be uncomfortable for everyone.
"I killed a Qi Refining Stage monk and got this thing from his Storage Bag." Luo Mu chuckled, said without any concealment, and then carefully took the skull into Storage Bag as if it were a treasure.
Watching Luo Mu grandly put away Holy Lord's head, the anger on Female Ghost's face slowly subsided, revealing an expression of worry about gains and losses, and a deep sigh came from Female Ghost's mouth.
Female Ghost knows that judging from her current situation, it is completely impossible to snatch Holy Lord's head back from Luo Mu's hands.
But Female Ghost still had a doubt in his heart. He clearly saw his spirit beast taking away the skull, why did it fall into the hands of others, and now it ended up in the Storage Bag of this hateful boy in front of him.
"My spirit beast that took away Holy Lord's head back then was just my mount, but its strength has already reached the peak of level five. It is only one step away from breaking through to level five monster. How could it be possible that I lost this thing!" Female Ghost's face was full of disbelief. She seemed to be saying this to Luo Mu, and at the same time, she seemed to be asking herself.
Female Ghost's words certainly did not escape the ears of Luo Mu. Luo Mu smiled indifferently at first, but the smile on his face immediately froze, as if he suddenly thought of something.
"You said your spiritual beast is a giant eagle?" Luo Mu asked with a strange expression.
"Yes, although this sculpture is not very powerful, it flies very fast, much faster than the ordinary Flying Artifact, so I have been using this beast to travel. Why, look at you, have you seen my spirit beast?" Female Ghost first explained, and then asked Luo Mu with a puzzled face.
"Can you tell me the specific characteristics of your spirit beast?" Luo Mu did not answer Female Ghost, but asked.
Female Ghost was originally very reluctant to answer, but now the demonic energy in Stone Chamber is getting stronger and stronger, and Female Ghost's discomfort is also getting stronger. Female Ghost, who just wants to leave here as soon as possible, is still in the mood to talk to Luo Mu about his spiritual beast.
However, under Luo Mu's cold eyes, Female Ghost still gave in and revealed the characteristics of the spiritual beast that took away Holy Lord's skull.
"It's really it!" Luo Mu's eyes were focused and he said with certainty.
What Luo Mu didn't expect was that the last level six monster that attacked Jinxiu City some time ago turned out to be Female Ghost's mount back then!
On that day when Jinxiu City fought, Luo Mu witnessed the elegance of the big eagle with his own eyes, and Luo Mu was deeply impressed by its appearance. Judging from Female Ghost's description just now, Luo Mu can be sure that the big eagle was most likely Female Ghost's mount back then.
As for how the monster beast at the peak of the fifth level advanced to the preliminary level of the sixth level. There is nothing to question about this. When the big eagle left Female Ghost alone, it had the strength of the fifth level. After so many years, it is not surprising that it suddenly reaches the sixth level.
"It seems that the monster attacking Jinxiu City that day was probably driven by this Female Ghost mount. And its purpose is probably inseparable from Holy Lord's head." Thinking of this, Luo Mu couldn't help but whisper to himself.
But in the end, Luo Mu really couldn't figure out how the monster's head fell into the hands of Bai Lin.
What Luo Mu didn't know was that when the big eagle got Female Ghost's order and left with Holy Lord's skull, as soon as the figure appeared in the sky above Jinxiu City, it was immediately sensed by the Foundation Establishment Realm monks in the city.
After all, the original Big Eagle was only a fifth-level peak monster, which was equivalent to the cultivation level of the human monk Foundation Establishment Late Stage. After being besieged by multiple Foundation Establishment Realm monks, the Big Eagle was no match at all. He almost fell to Jinxiu City several times, and was killed by Jinxiu City's Foundation Establishment Realm monks.
Fortunately, due to its fast movement and amazing speed, this beast managed to escape from the siege of many Foundation Establishment Realm monks. However, during the battle, the Holy Lord skull carried by the big eagle could not be lost.
At that time, the Holy Lord skull was sealed by the pure Buddha power ejected from Lotus Jade Pendant. The demonic energy did not leak out at all. It seemed to be just an ordinary skull. The Foundation Establishment Realm monks who were all focused on the big sculpture did not notice anything special about this skull, so no one cared about it.
In this way, the Holy Lord skull fell into Jinxiu City. After several twists and turns, it finally fell into the hands of Bai Lin, and Bai Lin was killed by Luo Mu. This Holy Lord skull naturally became the possession of Luo Mu.
And Luo Mu is the first lucky person among multiple winners to know the true secret of this skull!
"Do you know the whole story?" Female Ghost, who seemed to have seen something, asked Luo Mu at this time.
"No." Luo Mu didn't have the intention to explain anything to Female Ghost, so he refused immediately. Because at this time, Luo Mu's attention had already shifted to the demonic energy permeating Stone Chamber.
There was obviously a look of disbelief on Female Ghost's face, but because his life was in Luo Mu's hands, Female Ghost did not dare to ask any more questions. He had to swallow his anger deeply.
"You are so afraid of this demonic energy, is it because..." What should be understood, Luo Mu thought that he already understood it almost, and turned a blind eye to the angry look on Female Ghost's face, and then changed the topic and mentioned the demonic energy here.
A strong look of expectation appeared in Luo Mu's eyes. Female Ghost was so afraid of the evil spirit here that Luo Mu had to associate this evil energy with Saint Lord Remains for a moment.
"Hmph! You guessed it right. The demonic energy overflowing here is the same as the demonic energy that destroyed my body and Nascent Soul when I found Holy Lord's skull that day!" As if he had guessed what Luo Mu was thinking, Female Ghost snorted coldly and then spoke.
However, there was undisguised disdain in his tone.
Luo Mu didn't hear the disdain in the other party's words at all, because when Female Ghost was sure that the demonic energy here was the same as the demonic energy that erupted from Holy Lord's skull that day, Luo Mu was already sure in his heart that there must be another piece of Saint Lord Remains here!
At this time, Luo Mu's eyes had already revealed a fanatical look, so he didn't care about the tone of Female Ghost's words.
"I advise you to give up on this idea and leave this place as soon as possible if you want to live. Saint Lord Remains's demonic energy, even I couldn't resist it at all, let alone you Qi Refining Stage's kid. I don't want to die because of your greed." Female Ghost saw the excitement on Luo Mu's face and struck him unceremoniously.
Female Ghost really doesn't want Luo Mu to go through this muddy water, because if she is not careful, even she will be affected. She managed to survive the last situation, and Female Ghost doesn't want to lose her life here this time.
However, Female Ghost still has many doubts in his heart. Although the demonic energy in Stone Chamber has not yet reached a terrifying level, it is certainly not something that a boy from Qi Refining Stage can resist.
Luo Mu has been in this demonic aura for so long. Not only does his face not show any signs of discomfort, but it actually glows red and looks like he has advanced in cultivation. This makes Female Ghost quite puzzled.
"Under this secret passage, I must go and try it!" After a moment, Luo Mu took a deep breath and said firmly.
Female Ghost was shocked!
"No! If you miss, don't drag me with you!" Female Ghost showed an angry look on his face and roared angrily.
"You have to agree even if you don't agree, and you have to agree even if you agree. If you really want to resist, I will kill you now and make you disappear completely in the world of cultivation!" Luo Mu sneered, leaving no room for negotiation at all for Female Ghost, and said coldly.
At the same time, Luo Mu once again activated the high-level magic weapon Black Flame on his right hand. It seemed that as long as Female Ghost dared to say "no", Luo Mu would definitely take action without hesitation.
