"Killing Demon can also quickly accumulate Black Point!"
Mo Yun The more I think about it, the more excited I become.
This is undoubtedly a shortcut to becoming stronger quickly!
But soon, he seemed to think of something, and Mo Yun quickly calmed down again.
"However, with my current strength, it is not enough to deal with Demon alone. Even a Corpse Charm that has just been promoted to the second level can easily kill me..."
If this Corpse Charm hadn't been injured by the backlash, if Commander Li hadn't taken action and let him face it alone, he would definitely be no match.
"We must improve our strength as soon as possible, otherwise let alone killing Demon, I'm afraid I'll be killed as soon as I get close."
"Moreover, even if you follow the team, it is not absolutely safe. If you encounter an unexpected accident, it will easily affect Chi Yu, and you will not know how you died..."
Thinking of this, Mo Yun already has a clear plan in mind.
"Now I already have two Black Point. If nothing happens, I can accumulate another Black Point before the promotion test!"
"In this way, I can add points to Tiger-Crouching Stance once and let the cultivation level smoothly break through to Late Bright Strength!"
"Once my cultivation level reaches Late Bright Strength, I can free up time to practice Tiger-Crouching Force and prepare for the breakthrough Dark Force!"
Speaking of Tiger-Crouching Force, Mo Yun couldn't help but think of the roar of a tiger that scared away the miners just now.
This time he was able to turn danger into safety and resolve the crisis, thanks to the little bit of Tiger's Roar in the Mountains Intent he understood.
"Speaking of which, this Tiger's Roar in the Mountains Intent is really useful. It can not only intimidate Demon, but also increase the power of Fist Technique. It may even save lives at critical moments..."
"The artistic conception of the Tiger's Roar in the Mountains is the necessary condition for practicing Tiger-Crouching Force, and only by understanding Tiger-Crouching Force can one's cultivation level break through to Dark Force!"
"When Tiger-Crouching Force succeeds, my strength should be greatly improved. At least I will be able to protect myself more when facing Demon. I can look forward to the future!"
Just as he was thinking wildly, Commander Li's voice suddenly came to his ears. "Little Mo, what's wrong with you?"
Mo Yun When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had been thinking too much just now, and the expression on his face was a little unbearable.
He smiled quickly, thought for a moment, then changed the subject and said, "Commander Li, I would like to ask, is there something like Demon Core or Demon Nucleus in Demon's body?"
He asked this question, firstly because he was really curious, and secondly because he wanted to test whether Commander Li would find out anything about the Corpse Charm energy he just absorbed.
Commander Li nodded and said, "Yes."
Mo Yun felt a little thump in his heart, and his whole body felt bad.
Could it be that the Flowing Light I absorbed just now is the Demon Core that Corpse Charm is about to take shape?
Then when Commander Li and the others dispose of the body, will they find that Demon Core is missing and will they suspect me?
Just as he was thinking wildly, Commander Li continued to explain:
"However, there are very few Demon that can condense Demon Core or Demon Nucleus."
Commander Li said as he walked, his voice was still a little weak, but his tone was very serious. He was obviously giving Mo Yun popular science.
"Everything in the world has spirit, and human beings are the spiritual beings of all things. They are born with enlightenment and can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and turn it into their own use, so they can practice Martial Dao.
"Birds, animals, plants, spirits and monsters are also spiritual. They absorb the essence of the sun and moon, temper their bodies, and over time, they can change by themselves. This is Demon."
"The power of Demon is not limited to the power of minions. It can also control the Origin Energy of heaven and earth for one's own use. However, Origin Energy cannot be directly absorbed by Demon. It needs to be repeatedly tempered in the body before it can be controlled."
"This place where Origin Energy is tempered is the prototype of Demon Core or Demon Nucleus. Its essence is the condensed essence of Demon, and it is also their most fundamental source of power."
"Whether it is Demon Core or Demon Nucleus, they both contain extremely terrifying energy and are the main materials for refining high-level Elixirs!"
"A complete Demon Core, even the lowest Demon Core, can be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver if placed in Inner City's auction house!"
Mo Yun was shocked when he heard this.
Tens of thousands of taels of silver?
He now works as a nurse at Fuhu Villa, and his monthly salary is only one tael of silver.
How many lifetimes does he have to work to save tens of thousands of taels?
However, Commander Li's next words made him sigh in relief.
"It's a pity that ordinary Demon simply doesn't have the strength to gather Demon Core." Commander Li shook his head, with a hint of regret in his tone.
"Demon who can condense Demon Core or Demon Nucleus are the best among Demon, and their strength is terrifying!"
"I heard Village Master say that Demon, who is the first level to Third Tier, has not yet formed Demon Core in his body."
"Even if it is Peak Third-Tier Demon, its body only has the chance to condense Nascent Demon Core. Although it also contains terrifying energy, it is not the real Demon Core."
"Only by breaking through to Fourth Tier and Demon can the essence of the whole body be completely condensed to form the real Demon Core or Demon Nucleus!"
"Fourth-Rank Demon..." Mo Yun muttered.
According to the realm of Martial Dao, Bright Force is for the first level, Dark Force is for the second level, and Transforming Force is for Third Tier.
Transforming Force Martial Artist is already a master-level figure. Looking at the entire Qilin County, I'm afraid there aren't many of them.
And Fourth-Rank Demon is even stronger than Third Tier!
"Fourth-Rank Demon, how strong is it?" Mo Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Very strong." Commander Li said solemnly, "I don't know exactly how strong it is. I'm afraid no one among us Crouching Tiger Manor has seen Fourth-Rank Demon."
"But I have heard that a Fourth-Rank Demon, if it goes crazy, can kill a small city of hundreds of thousands of people in a cup of tea."
Mo Yun:"..."
Kill a city over a cup of tea?
This is even more powerful than the guide egg!
But he was relieved in his heart.
That Corpse Charm barely broke through to the second level. It didn't even have the prototype of Demon Core, so it was naturally impossible to condense Demon Core.
The Flowing Light he just absorbed was probably the essence remaining in Corpse Charm's body after his death, not Demon Core.
In this way, he would not be afraid of others finding out what he had done.
At this moment, Commander Li added:
"However, Demon below Fourth Tier cannot be condensed into Demon Core or Demon Nucleus, but their flesh and blood are very nourishing."
He licked his chapped lips, with an afterthought expression on his face:
"Demon has been swallowing the essence of the sun and moon all year round, and his flesh and blood contains extremely rich essence, which is countless times stronger than those Ginseng Lingzhi."
"Long-term consumption of Demon flesh and blood can help us Martial Artist condense Blood Qi faster and strengthen Physique."
Having said this, Commander Li glanced behind him with some disgust. "But this Corpse Charm... can't be eaten."
"Why?" Mo Yun asked curiously.
"First of all, this thing looks disgusting. Can you eat it?" Commander Li asked with a smile.
Mo Yun thought about Corpse Charm's majestic appearance and shook his head decisively.
His whole body was covered in thick black liquid, and his skin looked like a swollen corpse. Just looking at it made me want to vomit, let alone eat it.
"Secondly, Corpse Charm's flesh and blood contains extremely strong corpse energy and resentment, which is equivalent to poison for Martial Artist."
Commander Li continued to explain, "Not only will Physique not be able to grow stronger after eating it, it will cause serious illness such as vomiting and diarrhea, and at worst, Corpse Poison will erode the meridians and destroy the entire body."
"We have to remove its remains Mine Vein in a while and find an open place to burn it to prevent Corpse Poison from spreading and contaminating Mine Vein."
Mo Yun nodded with a look of surprise on his face. "That's it, thank you Commander Li for clarifying the confusion!"
Commander Li waved his hand. "You will have to come into contact with these things in the future. It's a good idea to understand them in advance. If you have anything you don't understand in the future, you can ask me directly."
Mo Yun said quickly, "Thank you Commander Li, I will do it!"
After hesitating for a second, Mo Yun tentatively said, "Commander Li, there will be a mission to eliminate Demon in the future, can you let me participate?"
As if he was afraid of Commander Li's rejection, he quickly added, "Although I am not strong enough now, I should be able to help with a little bit of Tiger's Roar in the Mountains Intent."
"Wasn't that Corpse Charm just indirectly hurt by my roar? If we encounter a similar Demon again, I might be able to play a greater role!"
Commander Li glanced at him.
This guy, when others hear the words Demon, they want to take a detour, but it would be better for him to take the initiative to join in.
However, thinking that Mo Yun had indeed played a lot of roles just now, and even saved everyone at a critical moment, Commander Li did not hesitate at all, and nodded and agreed:
"No problem, your strength is not weak now, there is still hope to deal with some First-Rank Demon, and you have understood Tiger's Roar in the Mountains Intent, which does have a natural restraint effect on the evil Demon."
He paused and his tone became serious:
"But you have to remember that every time Demon is wiped out, there will be at least several Dark Force Martial Artist leading the team. Just follow behind and learn. Don't act without authorization."
"As long as you are careful, safety is still guaranteed. Just think of it as tempering yourself."
Seeing that Commander Li agreed so readily, Mo Yun couldn't help but feel happy, and quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you Commander Li!"
While the two were talking, they had already returned to Passageway where the sarcophagus was.
The light of the lantern illuminated the scene ahead.
The good players Zhou Tieshan, Sun Yi, Wang Daniu, Zhao Gang and Blackstone Stronghold have woken up one by one at this moment.
Some of them were leaning against the cave wall, and some were sitting on the ground. All of them were pale and breathless.
Everyone has more or less injuries on their bodies, which were left when they were subdued by Commander Li just now.
However, these are just flesh wounds, which can be healed after a few days of rest without leaving any sequelae.
Seeing Commander Li and Mo Yun coming back, everyone quickly struggled to get up.
"Boss!"
"Commander Li!"
Commander Li waved his hand, indicating that they did not need to be polite.
Zhou Tieshan walked forward, his face full of guilt and uneasiness. "Boss, we..."
After he woke up just now, he listened to Mo Yun briefly describe what happened before, and realized that people like him were being controlled by Demon, and they were using swords against Commander Li.
How can Zhou Tieshan, who has always been loyal, accept this?
He fell to his knees with a plop, his rough black face full of regret. "Boss, I Zhou Tieshan deserve to die! I dare to attack you! Please punish me, boss!"
Sun Yi also quickly knelt down.
This young man, who has always been shrewd, now had a look of fear on his face, and his voice was trembling:
"Commander Li, I, I don't know what's going on. Those memories are all intermittent. I can't remember what happened... Please punish me!"
Wang Daniu scratched his head, his face full of confusion.
He only vaguely remembered that he seemed to have taken action against Commander Li, but he could not remember exactly how he took action.
But seeing that Zhou Tieshan and Sun Yi were both kneeling, he also knelt down and said loudly, "Commander Li, Daniel has also taken action, Daniel deserves to die!"
Zhao Gang also knelt down in silence.
Although he didn't speak much, the shame and self-blame on his face were clearly visible.
He had always respected Commander Li, but he never thought that he would actually take action against Commander Li. Although he was controlled by Demon, this incident still made him uncomfortable.
Blackie and those Blackstone Stronghold masters were even more frightened and trembling all over.
They also took action against Commander Li just now!
This is the commander of the Crouching Tiger Manor, Dark Force Martial Artist. In this territory with a radius of hundreds of miles, he is a real big shot!
They actually took action against this man, even nine lives were not enough to kill him!
"Li, Commander Li, we..."
Blackie opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't even say a complete sentence, so he could only bury his head low, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Commander Li looked at the people kneeling on the ground, sighed, and bent down to help Zhou Tieshan up.
"There's no need for this. I don't blame you for this. That Corpse Charm has been promoted to the second level. It's understandable that you can't resist its mental control."
He lifted everyone up one by one, patted the dust on their shoulders, and said in a gentle tone:
"You are all victims. If Little Mo hadn't restrained Corpse Charm with his roar at the critical moment, even I would have almost admitted defeat. The right way is to increase my strength through logistics and practice."
Everyone was relieved and looked at Mo Yun with a touch of gratitude.
Commander Li carefully interrogated Blackstone Stronghold and confirmed that they did not know anything about it and had not colluded with that Corpse Charm to deliberately lure them here before giving up.
"That's it for the past, there's no need to mention it again."
Commander Li The final word.
He is always fair in doing things and will not wrong good people or let bad people go.
Now that it is confirmed that Blackstone Stronghold has nothing to do with this matter, he will naturally not embarrass these people.
But just because Blackstone Stronghold escaped, it doesn't mean that the matter is over.
Commander Li asked people to temporarily seal Mine Vein, and only after sending people back to deal with the remains of Corpse Charm and clean up Corpse Poison in the mine can mining continue.
During this process, Xu Zhenyue held his breath the whole time, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
When he heard Commander Li say that he would no longer pursue the case, the gray-haired old village leader finally breathed a sigh of relief. His whole body went limp and he almost fainted on the spot.
He has had many contacts with the Crouching Tiger Manor and is very aware of the horror of the Crouching Tiger Manor.
If Commander Li determines that Blackstone Stronghold and Corpse Charm are cooperating inside and outside and intending to harm Crouching Tiger Manor, then Blackstone Stronghold will be destroyed in an instant without any room for negotiation.
Fortunately, although Commander Li looks rough and fierce, on the inside he is a gentle and good person who acts according to the rules.
The group left Mine Vein and returned to Blackstone Stronghold.
It was completely dark at this moment.
But Blackstone Stronghold was brightly lit, and all the villagers gathered in the open space in front of the village gate, looking forward to it.
When they saw their figures appearing on the mountain road, the crowd burst into uncontrollable cheers.
Blackstone Stronghold Everyone looked at the group of people walking out of Mine Vein, their eyes full of awe and gratitude.
Xu Zhenyue dare not default on rent arrears anymore.
He tremblingly returned to the village, quickly took out the silver, and handed it to Commander Li respectfully.
Moreover, the rent is 10% higher than before.
Commander Li did not refuse, accepted the money and nodded.
Although this battle was thrilling, it at least solved Corpse Charm, recovered the rent, and saved the lives of hundreds of Blackstone Stronghold's people.
At this moment, Xu Zhenyue suddenly knelt down tremblingly.
Behind him, Blackie and the twenty or thirty men with hammers also knelt down.
Immediately afterwards, everyone at Blackstone Stronghold, men, women, old and young, all knelt down.
Hundreds of people knelt in the darkness, and the firelight shone on their faces, showing pious and grateful faces.
"Thank you all my benefactors!"
Xu Zhenyue's old voice sounded in the night sky, a little choked.
"You are our Blackstone Stronghold's savior! From now on, the affairs of all Crouching Tiger Manor adults are our Blackstone Stronghold's business! But if you are sent to do so, you will not give up even if you die!"
The voices of hundreds of people gathered together and echoed in the valley like a roaring mountain and a tsunami:
"But if you are sent, you will not give up even if you die!"
As the night grew darker, the group of people bid farewell to Blackstone Stronghold and embarked on the road back to the Mountain Manor.
