chapter186 The strong smell of blood appeared in the scattered cultivation, which directly smoked Su Ziyi back a few steps.As far as the eye could see, the waters around the Misty Tears Bamboo Forest were red, and the corpses of large and small demon beasts or cultivators were shocked by the flowing water, or sank to the bottom of the water, or floated to the bamboo roots.Therefore, avoiding the half-demon beast corpse that was washed over by the water, Su Ziyi couldn't help but hold his breath.When the divine sense was probed, there were no demon beasts and cultivators around, and there was also nothing useful.Therefore, Su Ziyi didn't plan to stay here any longer, took out the map, and chose the closest landmark to wade here according to the instructions above, but he couldn't fly, and it was still a little troublesome.Because of the previous wave of scuffle, there were no demon beasts staying within a hundred miles centered on the Misty Tears Bamboo Forest, so Su Ziyi returned to the shallow water area relatively easily.And as soon as they arrived in the shallow water, the aura of the low-level demon beasts reappeared, but Su Ziyi didn't have time to entangle with them, because the sky had already begun to darken.Therefore, he swallowed a Qi Benefiting Pill and began to regain his spiritual power while speeding towards his destination at a faster speed.However, when it was almost dark, he stopped, even though the shadow of the land could already be seen in front of him.Because he was worried that the place that was also marked would also be like the Misty Tears Bamboo Forest, with quite precious spiritual materials that would cause high-level demon beasts and cultivators to gather, if he accidentally entered it, he was afraid that even the bones and scum would be hard to leave.So, as he had done the night before, he found a dry place where he could rest and rested for the night.The next day, as soon as he got out of the state of settling, the morning breeze drifted into Su Ziyi's nose with a slight fishy smell, which immediately woke up his still somewhat lazy consciousness, and he couldn't help but look in the direction where the wind was blowing, and his eyebrows wrinkled uncontrollably.Over there, something seems to have happened......
Su Ziyi did not move, but continued to stay in place for a long time.The fishy smell was not heavy, and it was intermittent, and when the sun rose higher, it disappeared, like an illusion of Su Ziyi.Although Su Ziyi didn't think that he had smelled it wrong, he was not frightened to retreat, but walked towards that side with a more careful attitude.When he finally left the water and put his feet on the solid ground, the fishy smell returned.But this time it was much stronger, and it also made Su Ziyi recognize that it was the rotten smell of flesh and blood, not only fishy, but also a little disgusting stench, which showed that the source of this smell had been dead for a long time.This made Su Ziyi feel less worried.However, in the next second, when his divine sense probed over, his brows couldn't help but tighten.Because he found that with his current divine consciousness of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, he had not been able to find out where the source of the smell was, and could only see some destroyed forests, which inevitably made people wonder how far away from him was in this place.Or how many demon beasts or others died in a certain place, so that such a strong fishy smell could be formed by him, and he could smell it from such a distance.In an instant, the worries that had been put down before were raised again.He held his breath a little and followed the smell as he walked forward.And the further he went, the stronger the smell became, and the traces of the fight became more and more, a stone the size of a calf was swept away five or six zhang away, and a large pit that was charred appeared on the flat ground, as well as a ravine drawn by the sword qi, which made Su Ziyi sure that the opponent's strength was extraordinary, and that this fight should involve cultivators.This time, he had been walking forward for nearly a stick of incense before his divine sense caught a hint of something unusual.As soon as he noticed it, Su Ziyi's throat immediately rolled unbearably, and the breakfast he had eaten in the morning was surging up his esophagus, and it took him a lot of effort to press it down.Su Ziyi couldn't imagine what had happened here.Although the altitude here is higher than the water, it is not very high, so the highest point is only the height of a small mound.But on such a relatively flat terrain, the green grass had been soaked in dried blood and blackened, and corpses of all sizes were scattered among them, all of them with deep and shallow scars, none of which were intact.These corpses have demon beasts and cultivators, but on the whole, most of them are demon beasts, and there are only a dozen cultivators, and the traces on their corpses look much newer, and the blood stains on their bodies are still red and not completely blackened.It's just that Su Ziyi also found that among these dead cultivators, only one or two were wearing the family's uniform robes, and the others were not wearing the same clothes.So, does it mean that everyone else is not from the family?
With speculation in his heart, Su Ziyi sped up and leaned over, but the smell was too strong, and when he got close to the edge, he used his spiritual power to close his sense of smell to prevent himself from throwing it out on the spot.It's nothing, after all, he has been in contact with all kinds of bloody scenes for so long, even if what he sees now is even worse, after watching it for a long time, he slowly got used to it, and he actually felt that it was nothing.He leaned over to the corpse of a cultivator, this corpse was not flat, but knelt down with his back hooked, and the reason why it did not fall to the ground was because a branch as thick as a human arm pierced his entire chest, directly fixing it in place like a specimen.And the reason why he was able to attract Su Ziyi's attention was not because of how strange his posture was when he died, but because Su Ziyi found a token of Da Yue on him.That's where it gets interesting.After a closer look, Su Ziyi found the other four corpses with the tokens of Da Yue hanging on them.Combined with the corpses of the two family cultivators he saw, as well as the few words he heard in Weihuadian, he couldn't help but start to guess, was it the government that destroyed this group of people, or did the family have copied them in one pot?
But no matter what, it will definitely not be done by the people of Da Yue, after all, the cultivators of Da Yue are too scattered.However, between these two speculations, Su Ziyi is biased towards the latter.Because among the dozen or so corpses here, only two are from the family, and if you get rid of the people who are from the Great Yue, the other nearly ten corpses may be cultivators of the government.If the government wants to put Da Yue in the same pot with the people of the family, then it will definitely not kill so many people, and now it is clear that the government has suffered the greatest loss, so it can only be done by the family.Suddenly, Su Ziyi remembered that when he hid in the Reed Flower Lake River before, those families seemed to say something before retreating.However, he didn't hear it too seriously.Among so many corpses, the only female cultivator seemed extremely attractive to the eye.This is a good-looking woman, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, although she is covered in blood and her hair and clothes are messy, it also makes it clear that she must be a delicate beauty in front of her.I don't know how this beauty offended others, when the bodies of other people were lying on the ground, she was nailed to the trunk of a big tree by the other party with several wooden sticks, pulling her head like a rag doll with her neck strangled, and she looked a little crazy.Su Ziyi glanced at it and withdrew his gaze.Based on the traces at the scene, Su Ziyi could speculate that the corpses that appeared here had all appeared in the past two days, especially these cultivators, who should have died almost yesterday.Therefore, those guys who killed these people must not have been gone for long, but to be able to make the other party kill so many people at great risk, the spiritual materials that appear here must be quite valuable.Because the corpse was smelly and rotten, there were already large numbers of flies gathered in this area at this time.After another fly hit Su Ziyi, he finally left the area a little unbearable, planning to look around to find out if there were any fish that had slipped through the net.This piece of forest is not luxuriant, but there are a lot of plant species, and there are also many kinds of spirit grass, and it didn't take long for Su Ziyi to find some spirit grass under the roots of the surrounding grasslands, although they are not very old, but they are also rare treasures when they are taken outside.It's just that Su Ziyi was worried that he wouldn't be able to feed outside, so he didn't take more, and only took two or three of the more and left.As a result, after he searched the entire area, he didn't find any mature spirit grass, and only harvested a few seedlings.But he was also quite satisfied.He had been wandering around this area all day, and he didn't know if it was because of the vicious fight between the people of the three waves of forces here, which caused Su Ziyi to never detect the approach of other cultivators, but instead encountered some demon beasts that had returned.This time, he didn't avoid it anymore, but attacked it with a demon beast below the fourth order, and successfully hunted a third-order Heavenly Thunder Beast before dark, not only successfully verifying his current strength, but also adding a fresh dish to his dinner.With this wave of successful temptations, Su Ziyi lived like this in the next few days.He took that place as a starting point and circled the whole area in a large circle, and it was because of this large circle that he realized that it was even bigger than he thought, and the further back he went, the higher the terrain, and when he stood at the end, he could even see the outline of the mountains.This greatly inspired Su Ziyi, because in his opinion, the resources in the mountains must be more abundant.Therefore, after discovering that no other valuable resources could be found in this area, Su Ziyi traveled in the direction of the mountain.It also seems that God is verifying that Su Ziyi's idea is right, the closer he gets to the mountain range, the more spirit grass he finds, and the number of mature spirit grass increases, and he even met Zhu Ming vine fruit here again.The red and bright fruits are like small lanterns, which are extremely attractive.Su Ziyi immediately leaned over and picked them all off.He still remembered that the last time he met such a big Zhu Ming vine fruit was in the mountains outside Luoshan Village, that time he broke some vines and brought them back to cultivate, although they were raised, but now they are not very big, not as tall as Su Yulang.He doesn't know when he will have to wait until they turn out, so now that he has met them, he must not miss them.He quickly put all the Zhu Ming vine fruits into the storage bag, and just packed up with satisfaction and prepared to move forward, but his divine sense detected that there was a fight ten miles away in front of him, which couldn't help but make him pause.But in the next second, a complicated look appeared on his face.Su Ziyi originally thought that there should be very few solitary cultivators like him in the entire Shuize territory, and it should be a rare existence like him in the foundation building period, but he didn't want to meet one in this mountain forest!
Moreover, the strength of the other party is similar to that of him who had just entered the realm of Mizusawa before, he had just refined the tenth layer of qi, and the other party's breath was a little unstable, presumably not long after he had just entered the tenth layer of qi refining.But even so, Su Ziyi didn't dare to underestimate the other party.In this dangerous realm of water, any cultivator who dares to walk alone has something to rely on.Like the reason why he dared to run around without being afraid at all, it was because as soon as he entered the realm of Shuize, he was lucky enough to get the essence of water and the essence of the earth, and he was able to hide his breath perfectly.Therefore, he believes that since the other party dares to break in here alone, there must be something extraordinary.Therefore, after he found the other party, he did not come over, but just observed from a distance with his divine sense.This is a thin man, even if he has cultivation, his whole face is sallow and sallow, and he looks decadent.At this time, he was holding a broad-backed big knife and confronting a third-order demon beast, although the demon beast's moves were ruthless, making him a little difficult to deal with, but there was no real attack knife for half a day, and every time he was about to meet this man, he was caught by this man's dangerous and dangerous parry, so they were stalemate for a while.This made Su Ziyi's face very interested.That third-order demon beast is the famous black iron horned cow, with a large size, strong impact, and high skin defense, among the third-order demon beasts, it can also be regarded as an existence of middle and upper strength, and generally weak qi refining tenth-layer cultivators are very likely to be crippled by the other party in a single shot.But although the man in front of him had a difficult face, he didn't show a helpless expression at all, so this person's actual strength was much stronger than his surface strength.This couldn't help but arouse Su Ziyi's curiosity, so he hid in the shadows and observed with great interest, trying to find out the key points that could make the other party so powerful.And after a long time, the problems that were not discovered at a glance before are revealed one by one.Su Ziyi found that although the power of this person's moves did not look very good, the power point and response point of each move were just right, which would not consume any more spiritual power in his body, nor would he let the other party seize the opportunity to seriously injure himself.And such skills are often accumulated by countless combat experiences.So, this guy really has a few brushes.
