The Third Kind of Mystery-Type
The Snail Mother Lady was a shaman in her previous life, and a very talented one at that.
In ancient times, witchcraft and Jiangtou were known as the two major schools of witchcraft in Nanyang.
However, the methods of witchcraft and rituals were gradually lost, while the Jiangtou flourished and gradually became the mainstream of witchcraft.
There are many reasons for this, one of the biggest being that the path of shamanism requires extremely high talent, especially for priestesses who worship gods, who are required to awaken their Divine Sense before they even begin to cultivate.
Because these kinds of shrine maidens are supposed to be able to summon rain and wind.
This is already quite exaggerated, but the Snail Mother Lady in front of us is even more exaggerated. According to her, when she was still a minor, her Divine Sense strength was already equivalent to that of Golden Core cultivator. By the standards of the Heavenly Gate, she was a genius among geniuses, and by the standards of the Nanyang, she was a goddess who appeared only once in ten thousand years.
This is why, even after she died and was transformed into a sea monster, her consciousness remained intact.
However, this is also the source of her distress.
Because her consciousness was intact, she began self-cultivation a long time ago.
However, due to his cultivation, his own Curse power has become increasingly stronger. The Withered Tide Conch Sound and the spiritual power of the witch's ritual, once fully released, can even annihilate all living beings within a radius of a thousand miles.
Even among sea monsters, she belongs to the most dangerous kind.
After several failed attempts to contact outsiders, she did not give up the idea and sank into the sea and burrowed into the Dragon Vein to enter a deep slumber.
Only by isolating the power of the Dragon Vein can she avoid instinctively emitting conch shell sounds while she is asleep, which could cause mass deaths of creatures on the sea surface.
"So, you've been searching for a way to suppress your inner conch shell?" Hu Mang finally understood why the other party was so interested in Buddhism.
The Snail Mother nodded, and then the massive snail shell began to slowly open, revealing its sacred yet grotesque form.
Like a bright moon slowly rising in the darkness.
The Snail Mother Lady's true form is that of a beautiful young woman with a delicate figure and snow-white skin that radiates a warm glow, like white jade bathed in moonlight. However, she has no conspicuous female organs. According to Daoist beliefs, she seems to have already completed the "Slaying the Red Dragon".
However, her mind wasn't so Daoist.
She had no hair, and her forehead was actually a huge eyeball, its surface covered with fine black threads that constantly rotated with her Divine Sense.
The dangerous Snail Mother -shaped eye that Hu Mang saw earlier was actually the head of the Snail Mother Lady!
"You can see me without being affected!"
The Snail Mother Lady let out a joyful sound, just like a young girl.
However, as soon as the sound was uttered, the power contained within it transformed into an invisible shockwave that spread in all directions, almost shattering the Hu Mang's "Vajrayana" mantra. The Hu Mang felt the translucent light membrane around its body tremble violently as if it had been struck by a giant hammer, as if it would shatter at any moment.
Hu Mang turned his head and found that the huge private port had disappeared, as if it had been erased by an eraser. Not even a plank or a rope was left. Even the several small islands and reefs near the port were gone, leaving only a vast and flat sea, like a smoothed-out canvas.
"Grandma, keep your voice down!!"
The Snail Mother Lady quickly covered her mouth, blinking her big eyes. If you didn't look at her head, she was quite cute.
Hu Mang was sweating profusely. If he hadn't been in the "Vajrayana" state, that shout would have definitely taken him away.
It's hard to say whether the opponent has the strength of a Nascent Spirit Transformation, but their Divine Sense has definitely reached the level of Spirit Transformation, and it's not just any ordinary Spirit Transformation Divine Sense.
After all, according to the other party, the shaman was worshipping the god of heaven and earth and nature. This god should not be the same as the Orthodox God of the Azure Mysterious Realm, but it is not non-existent either. According to Hu Mang's understanding, it should be a kind of natural law of heaven and earth.
As the most powerful goddess in a thousand years, it's not incomprehensible that she would have exaggerated her Divine Sense after death, given that she spent her days meditating on "Divine Sense" during her lifetime.
After pondering for a moment, Hu Mang finally decided to pass on the "Yugi Sutra" to the other party.
Aside from the fact that the opponent's strength was so abnormal that he might be crushed to death if he didn't give in,
Another very important reason is that he will eventually have to explore the Saha Continent, but he is still somewhat wary of the strange karma within the Saha Continent.
After all, a little bit of karma can cultivate a nearly immortal Buddha Woman, and there might be many more "perverted Buddhist practitioners" among them.
In this situation, a companion who is proficient in both Buddhist and heretical Evil Method, and even possesses Divine Sense at the level of Spirit Transformation, would be ideal.
The Snail Mother Lady was also very interested in Hu Mang's invitation, since Saha Continent was one of the few places where she could not hear any sounds.
Moreover, she could vaguely sense that there were many things there that were both threatening and attractive to her.
Most importantly, if her practice of the Yugi Sutra goes smoothly, she will be able to absorb her resentment and mantra through Wisdom King Aizen, which means she can also go ashore.
However, compared to the others, Hu Mang was more interested in a piece of information that the other party had inadvertently leaked.
"You mean, you can hear the voices of those 'Sinful Dragon'?"
"Those screams and the stench, I could smell them from far away, it was disgusting," Snail Mother Lady, her small bald head topped with her eyeball, her face full of disgust.
If even a corpse sunk to the bottom of the sea finds the smell unpleasant, then it must smell truly awful.
Moreover, according to Snail Mother Lady, a long time ago, about 60 years ago, a group of cultivators deliberately dived into the sea to collect sea monsters, seemingly to study something, and the result of their research was the "Sinful Dragon".
"So, some of those bizarre and chaotic Dragon Calamity evolutions actually originated from sea monsters?"
The Hu Mang muttered to itself.
You Old Celestial Person beings really do a hodgepodge when it comes to studying Dragon Vein, adding a little bit of everything.
This news was extremely important to Hu Mang. Putting everything else aside, just knowing the hiding places of all the Sinful Dragon in the Nanyang meant he could cooperate with the Heavenly Gate military at any time to carry out a large-scale purge.
Even if the Heavenly Gate military can't persuade him, if they know the other party's hometown, once those strange cyber cultivators come knocking on his door, he can have a grievance to settle and a debt to repay.
After reading the * Yugi Sutra *, this Snail Mother Lady became almost instantly captivated by it. There was no way around it; Earth Star itself didn't have any proper Buddhist teachings, and this was such a profound Dharma gate of the Form Realm.
Soon, Hu Mang had a jade-colored conch shell in his hand. According to the Snail Mother Lady, as long as he blew on it, he could summon her. As for the Snail Mother Lady herself, she was preparing to dive into the sea to cultivate Buddhist arts in seclusion.
That's good; at least we won't have to harm people living near the coast anymore.
You shouted so loudly that the dock disappeared; the effect was truly exaggerated.
After the three "dirty things" were removed from its body, the ghost ship was noticeably more relaxed, and its consciousness visibly became happier.
After dealing with the beginning and end of the ghost ship, only two "tails" remained to be resolved—the study of Zhao Longbo's corpse, and the "Little Black God of Wealth" that he placed in the attic, next to the Blood Buddha.
Even Hu Mang himself didn't expect that after collecting enough fragments of the Ship God, they would actually combine on their own to form a "miniature god of wealth".
He had tested it, and its usage was similar to that of the "Blood Buddha," but with a larger coverage area. It could control a considerable portion of the sea power of the Wanshun Sea Hall, such as stirring up waves, Curse others, and summoning sea beasts to attack.
Most importantly, after the "Little Black God of Wealth" took shape, Hu Mang was able to vaguely sense the consciousness of that fat Master Bao through him.
The other party seems to be in a stage of transformation, like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.
However, without this part, the success rate drops drastically.
Not to mention Hu Mang, that old friend who's always causing trouble at crucial moments.
Back in Zheng Family Garden, Hu Mang was about to go to the research building to see the research results when he suddenly felt like something was missing.
After thinking for a while, I realized, where's the Old Third?
Since returning to Zheng Family Garden, Old Third seemed to have mysteriously disappeared. But "mysteriously disappeared" isn't quite right, because you could still bump into him at mealtimes. After his hand was injured, he would sometimes see a female ghost in a wedding dress feeding him. However, when Hu Mang asked if this was his girlfriend, Old Third waved his hand and said that they were all buddies, even the one in the wedding dress was a buddy.
However, most of the time, the Old Third disappeared right before Hu Mang's eyes.
Where did the Old Third go?
The Old Third did nothing, nor did he go into seclusion. He was currently in the room arranged by Hu Mang, awkwardly writing something with his left hand.
"Underwater Paranormal Observation Report: Samples and Behavioral Records of Mystery-Type Submerged Creatures..."
The Old Third looked up and realized that his report had somehow ended up in his second brother's hands.
"The title is misspelled, isn't it? It should say 'ghost'." Hu Mang pointed at the title.
The third child was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Second brother, that's right. It's indeed a trick, not a ghost."
"Mystery-Type?" Hu Mang raised an eyebrow, pulled up a chair, and sat down, his expression turning serious. "Are you sure it's a strange creature and not a ghost?"
The Old Third, with difficulty, made a thumbs-up gesture with his injured hand, grinned, and said, "That's right, second brother, I'm absolutely certain that those sea monsters are the third Mystery-Type creature' after the Hundred Mysteries Night Parade and the Jiangtou Imp."
"The third Mystery-Type, why the third type?" Hu Mang asked.
"Because their characteristics are different."
The Old Third scratched his head with his pen.
"If our Mysterious Transformation abilities are characterized by 'immortality,' and the characteristics exhibited by the Jiangtou Imp are 'long-lasting existence,' then the characteristics exhibited by those sunken artifacts at the bottom of the sea are 'pollution.' Many judges at headquarters agree with these views of mine, and it is said that several King Yama have specifically requested to see them. That's why I'm writing this report; this is already the second one."
According to Great Judge Zhong, they exhibited more "Grave Transformation characteristics."
"Grave Transformation characteristics, what are those?" Hu Mang asked, puzzled.
At this point, the Old Third cautiously glanced out the window before closing the door and window, and said furtively:
"Second brother, I only just learned this big secret myself."
"Second brother, do you even know what humanity is?"
"..." Hu Mang said expressionlessly, "I've already started raising Private Dragon, and you're asking me if I know anything about human evolution?"
"Did you know that there is actually a Heavenly Dao on our planet?"
