Qin Hui Becomes a Corpse, the Man-Eating Immortal!
at the same time.
In a secluded underground cave abode within Yin'an City, Qin Hui, now nearly 90 years old, is frail and declining...
He clearly doesn't have much time left to live!
What was supposed to be an ordinary beast tide, which had been a stalemate for some years, ended up lasting for several years. For cultivators, it was just a few years of hardship...
But for Qin Hui, several years had passed, and his lifespan was about to end.
No, no!
"I... haven't become an immortal yet! I... can't collapse here..."
"I want to become an immortal! I want to become an immortal! I want to rebuild the glory of Northern Qin and continue the Qin Clan! I cannot die yet..."
"We can't die!"
Qin Hui spoke haltingly, as if a phlegm was stuck in his throat, unable to come out or go back in; he exhaled more than he inhaled...
He looked pitiful, old and half-dead.
If an ordinary person saw this, they might even feel sorry for Qin Hui and offer some words of comfort, unable to bear seeing him suffer like this...
But what Qin Hui hated most in his life was the pitying look on other people's faces!
Within his Lineage, no one respected him. But when he ventured out into the world, he, a mere mortal, strategized and plotted, though he harmed countless people...
But so what!
Song Alliance's current status is largely due to the countless dirty and tiring jobs he's done...
Zhao Gou was able to successfully break through to the Dao Foundation because he ordered the slaughter of a million people to refine his spirit with the corpses of thousands of people, thus helping him break through!
And now--
He completely abandoned his humanity, throwing himself into the most extreme evil...
He falsely claimed to have an imperial decree, ordering Song Alliance to collect the blood of countless living beings to be absorbed into his own body, even at the cost of his life...
He wants to be someone superior to others too!
For this purpose, he would stop at nothing, just to earn someone's respect and to make everyone marvel at him...
He longed to be noticed; he longed to be trusted!
"The mortal body has its limits, so..."
"Father, then I'd rather not be human!"
That's enough for now.
Qin Hui swallowed a black bead, a Second-Tier Yin Sha treasure, and at the same time took out a tea leaf, which he had taken with him when he left home years ago...
A tea leaf taken from the Soul-Awakening Tea King!
Qin Hui held a tea leaf in his mouth, attempting to use it to maintain his sanity...
Subsequently, under the influence of the Yin Sha treasure, the body began to twist and mutate, and the internal organs decayed and died...
His blood gradually thickened, giving him the appearance of someone about to die!
And then--
Despite the excruciating pain, Qin Hui approached a pool of blood step by step, then plunged into it, instantly enveloped by Endless resentment...
It seemed as if Endless stream of demonic beings were whispering and roaring in his ear!
But then, Qin Hui fainted.
And this coma lasted for a full three months, three months later...
On the night of the full moon, when the Yin Qi is at its peak!
Inside the underground cave abode, a pool of blood churned and bubbled continuously...
Then a gray-black arm emerged from the pool of blood, followed closely by an extremely young body!
He was a young man, extremely handsome!
But his skin was a lifeless, grayish-black color...
The most peculiar thing was its mouth; it wasn't a normal human mouth, but a strange mouth shape with no upper or lower lips, only two rows of teeth...
At the ends of the two rows of teeth, four crescent-shaped fangs grow out, one pair pointing upwards and the other downwards, making them look extremely terrifying...
The young man was none other than Qin Hui!
At this moment, he had already turned into a zombie...
Moreover, he was a zombie with intelligence, inheriting most of Qin Hui's memories, but they were extremely distorted!
He craved flesh and blood, and then, following his memory, opened a dark room.
Inside the dark room were two rows of cells, where a group of ordinary people were imprisoned, but after three months...
The vast majority of them were already dead, and those who survived only managed to stay alive by eating human flesh and drinking human blood...
Those who survived were all just like Qin Hui!
Having long abandoned all moral principles, Qin Hui watched this scene and smiled. He smiled broadly, a gentle smile...
He felt as if he had seen one of his own kind!
But in their eyes, Qin Hui was the real demon...
Qin Hui laughed as he dissected and devoured them. Regardless of age or gender, at that moment, Qin Hui felt the love of family!
The love of family is so intense!
Love was so deep that it filled his belly to the brim!
Feeling as if he were one with his family, an unparalleled sense of joy made Qin Hui's brain tremble, and he tore at the face with his sharp claws...
Pain was like a deadly poison, giving him immense excitement!
Ah~!
"Father! Can you see this?!"
Hehehehehehehehehehehe~
"I've become a cultivator! I've become a cultivator!"
"Hahahaha! I did it! Father! I did it! Hahahahahaha~"
"I have finally made you proud, Father!"
"Did you see that?! Hahahaha! Once I've seen my true self, the path is under my feet, and I've embarked on the road to success!"
Hahahaha!
Qin Hui's smile was like that of a demon, or perhaps it was due to his old age and declining health...
He went mad the moment he lost all hope of becoming an immortal!
After finishing his snacks, he changed into a blood-stained robe and, to conceal his current appearance, put on a mask...
From this day forward-
He's no longer a mortal! He's an immortal!
He is a celestial being who brings hope! He will guide those lost sheep to the Pure Land of Bliss...
For such a sin, he would perform a ritual to absolve him!
He cherished all people in his heart, wishing to guide them into his boundless love, allowing countless people to feel his Endless benevolence...
From this day forward.
Qin Hui then proclaimed himself. "The Benevolent High Person!"
In the common folk, however, a new story emerged: the story of the Man-Eating Immortal!
But all of this--
How could this escape Song Alliance's notice? Yue Fei wanted to kill Qin Hui and rid the people of this scourge, but Zhao Gou surprisingly did not reveal his stance...
The reason is quite simple.
Qin Hui's knife is very useful, and the Song Alliance also needs it. Originally, Qin Hui was old and nearing the end of his life...
Zhao Gou naturally no longer valued it, but now it has turned into a zombie. Although it is only a Second-Tier Walking Jiangshi, it has unexpectedly retained its intelligence!
In this way, Qin Hui could continue to serve him and the Song Alliance...
If sacrificing a small number of people can bring stability to the majority, from a king's perspective, it is worthwhile!
not to mention--
Zhao Gou may well have had the idea of using Qin Hui to counterbalance Yue Fei...
