I played the world alone

Chapter 392: Communicating with evil beasts? ([-]-in-[-])

After discovering their location, Lu Chen did not approach immediately.

Instead, a pile of flesh and blood was first used to shape a new body, and then the Nascent Soul was used to possess it and control it.

This skill was learned from the process of creating puppets in the system before. Although it is not as powerful as the original version, there is no big problem in using it temporarily.

The main reason for doing this is to avoid scaring all these guys away as soon as the Nascent Soul stage appears, and then it will take a lot of effort on one's own.

A few minutes later, the city lord in front of the bonfire was closing his eyes and concentrating. Suddenly he opened his eyes and raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.

Everyone was a little confused, but they heard him smiling in one direction and saying: "Since fellow Taoist is here, why hide? Could it be that he has some guilty conscience?"

Several people were startled and looked along, and sure enough they saw a figure slowly descending not far away in that direction.

From the outside, he looks like an old man with gray hair. His aura is probably at the Golden Core stage, and he doesn't feel oppressive. It seems that he is not very strong.

After taking a closer look, everyone was relieved.

What they fear most at the moment is that the difficult and serious Li Huaiyun will catch up and hold them accountable.

"Your Excellency, are you the city lord of Fuxian City?"

The old man glanced at everyone and finally his eyes rested on the face of the city lord.

A Jindan elder next to him immediately stood up and was about to rebuke: "Who are you? What qualifications do you have to come..."

"Okay shut up."

The city lord squinted his eyes: "I'm afraid Fuxian City no longer exists. What's the point of my so-called city lord position?"

"But since fellow Taoists know about the existence of Fuxian City, don't you want to question me on their behalf?"

"Blame me for abandoning them, or blame me for not protecting the formation?"

Several other Jindanqi also became quiet and stared at the sudden arrival of the old man with unkind expressions.

However, the old man still faced their eager gazes with a calm expression.

"I really want to ask you something when I come here this time."

"Since Li Huaiyun is still insisting, why did you defect before the war? You even destroyed the formation..."

"With such villainous behavior, are you worthy of the position of city lord?"

In response to this somewhat accusatory tone, the city lord suddenly looked relieved and smiled lightly: "Why do you ask, fellow Taoist, knowingly?"

"Since I knew in advance that it was a trap that would lead to death, why would I jump into it?"

"Fuxian City should have been breached by now. Li Huaiyun and the others have been eaten..."

"If I had come and stayed there, I would have ended up like this."

He shook his head with emotion, his understatement as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Others nodded with deep understanding.

"Yes, those are dozens of golden elixir stage evil beasts!"

"If they attack together, even with the protection of the formation, we won't be able to withstand it at all! Then why should we resist? Are we going to sacrifice our lives for those humble ants-like mortals? It's simply ridiculous..."

The city lord chuckled: "Fellow Taoist, since you are here now, it means you have made the same choice as us."

"In this case, we are members of the same path, so why do we need to question each other? Why don't we take refuge in me and let's go to the next safe place to practice again."

"With the help of the best spiritual stones, maybe I can advance to the Nascent Soul stage. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"

Others couldn't help but look greedy when they heard this.

Anyone who can come here is a complicit person.

The interests are at present. In the past, the ancestor of Yuanying was suppressing it, so no one dared to think anything about it, but now...

As for the veteran in front of him, although he is not very strong, there is still no problem if he is just starting to attack.

One more is not much, one less is not more.

Maybe he can balance the power on his side so that the city lord doesn't dare to take it all for himself.

However, when both parties were thinking carefully, the old man just shook his head.

"No need."

The city lord's smile faded slightly.

"Then fellow Taoist, what do you mean..."

"Are you going to be our enemy?"

While talking, he put his hands behind his back, slowly condensing spiritual energy to prepare spells.

We have already come to this point anyway, and it is impossible for someone who knows what he and others have done in the past to still be alive and ruin their good things in the future.

He winked at the others, and the others immediately understood in a tacit understanding and began to prepare secretly.

Everyone suddenly attacked, no matter how powerful the other party was, it was impossible to escape!
But the other party's words in the next second made them stunned for a moment.

"Fuxian City is now safe and sound, and your affairs will soon spread to the whole world through broadcasts in the city, and everyone will know your true identity."

"how is this possible!"

The city lord asked subconsciously, thinking it was ridiculous.

Others had similar reactions, even looking at him mockingly.

I'm afraid this person is not talking nonsense.

That's an evil beast with more than 20 golden elixir stages!

One person could destroy Fuxian City with one blow, how could he still be fine?

The city lord slowly approached, with a kind expression on his face: "Isn't it that fellow Taoist has been frightened and gone crazy to say such nonsense..."

"But it doesn't matter, sit down slowly and take a good rest..."

After he got close to the distance he thought was appropriate, he suddenly punched out!
This earth-shattering blow hit the opponent's chest.

"boom!"

The next second, the opponent's whole body exploded into blood foam flying all over the sky, not even a piece of intact flesh was left behind.

The others were not surprised at all. Instead, they sneered and regarded this as an incident without incident.

Just when he was about to sit down and continue to rest before heading on his way again, he suddenly heard a soft sigh from the city lord.

"Strange, where is his golden elixir?"

His power is far from being able to destroy other people's golden elixirs with one punch, so logically he should stay here!

Others subconsciously looked back, and soon saw a shocking scene.

The mass of blood mist quickly condensed into a human form a few meters away!
How can it be!

The city lord's pupils shrank, he had never seen such a strange sight.

The old man glanced at them and shook his head in disappointment.

"Sure enough, I still shouldn't have any sympathy for you..."

After the words fell, the other party waved his sleeves, and everyone present felt their whole bodies tense. Then they were horrified to find that even the original majestic spiritual power was imprisoned, and they could not cast any spells!His body felt like it was being pressed firmly by a mountain, and even just trying to move was very awkward and difficult.

"Who are you..."

The city lord tried his best and spoke with difficulty.

"I'm just here to collect debts for Fuxian City."

The old man smiled lightly and slowly approached them.

"Fuxian City does still exist, and it was saved by me."

"I promised my old friend in the city to take care of me, but you almost made me lose face. I have to pay this debt."

Then he casually pointed at the Jindan elders except the city lord.

Those people instantly turned into powder and dissipated without even uttering a scream, leaving no trace left in the world.

Seeing this horrific scene, the city lord couldn't help but tremble all over, but he couldn't even kneel down and beg for mercy. He could only watch the other party walking towards him.

"Don't be afraid, I still have a few things to ask you. If you satisfy me, I may be able to spare your life."

The city lord immediately blinked his eyes desperately to express his agreement. Then the next second he felt his mouth loosen and immediately shouted excitedly: "Senior, just ask, I will tell you everything I know!"

He finally understood it.

How can this person in front of me be in the Golden Core stage?
He is clearly an old monster who is at least in the Nascent Soul stage!

An old friend who can be compared with the original one from Fuxian City!
It's all my fault for looking down on others just now. If I had been more careful with my words, I might have been able to avoid this disaster. However, there is no regret medicine in the world.

Just listen to the other party ask: "Where is the top-quality spiritual stone at the core of the formation?"

The city lord immediately said: "It's in the storage ring on my finger! Senior city lord, please let go of my consciousness first, and I will get it to you immediately..."

It's a pity that his little idea didn't succeed.

Lu Chen cut off his finger and took off the ring.

Then, regardless of any restrictions or the like, just use your spiritual consciousness to forcefully test them.

There are indeed many good things in it, but the most eye-catching thing is one of the golden spirit stones that is about the size of a palm and has a diamond shape.

Just by looking at it, you can almost immediately recognize that it must be this one.

Because its whole body exuded a very high concentration of spiritual energy, even Lu Chen couldn't help but be surprised.

If you keep it with you, I'm afraid your cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage will be able to progress as fast as the divine aid!
The rest of the ring seemed unremarkable in comparison.

But it seemed like it might be of some use, so he simply threw the storage ring into his storage space and looked at it slowly later.

At this time, although the city lord had one of his fingers cut off and was in terrible pain, he still managed to maintain a flattering smile on his face: "Senior, are you satisfied?"

Lu Chen glanced at him: "There is another question. How did you know that those evil beasts were going to attack the city in advance and also know their strength so accurately?"

The city lord's expression froze, as if he was hesitating whether to say anything.

But when he saw the other person's slightly frowned brow, he knew he couldn't hesitate any longer and hurriedly gritted his teeth and told the truth.

"It's not that I don't want to say it, but I'm afraid that you won't believe me if I tell you."

"Actually, I was injured by an evil beast more than ten years ago. Because I didn't take timely measures at that time, the evil energy that invaded my body could never be completely removed."

He paused, looked at the senior's face, and then slowly said: "Even though the Nascent Soul Ancestor later helped me get rid of the evil spirit, it still left some sequelae."

"That means that part of my body has turned into an evil beast. I can sense the movements of the evil beasts and even hear the exchanges between them..."

Lu Chen didn't expect to hear such earth-shattering news from the other party, so he immediately scanned the other party's body with his spiritual consciousness.

In the end, I really found something strange in the other party's body, but it was too subtle so I never noticed it before.

I saw that part of the opponent's golden elixir had been dyed black, and strands of silk were wrapped around it like spider silk, which looked a bit weird.

What surprised him even more was that if he followed what the other party said, could it mean that the evil beasts communicated in groups without using language, but through some mysterious way that ignored distance and space?
"Tell me carefully what's going on."

The city lord did not dare to disobey, so he could only rack his brains to remember.

"Whenever I practice calmly, I can hear many noisy sounds. For example, far or near, some are meaningless moans and roars, and some are intermittent voices."

"At first I thought it was some kind of inner demon, but then I discovered step by step that it turned out to be the voice of an evil beast!"

"And similarly, the evil beasts seem to be able to detect my presence on their side, but I have never responded to their calls to me."

"I'm also worried that people in the city will regard me as a freak and expel me, so I don't dare to report my current situation to the ancestor of Yuanying. I can only pretend that it didn't happen."

"Later on, I occasionally used this method to discover the movements of evil beasts and repelled their attacks many times. Therefore, I also took the position of city lord, and then until..."

"Yesterday, I suddenly heard the information that those evil beasts deliberately leaked to me, saying that they had gathered a large number of masters of the Golden Core stage. I sensed the number and found that I really knew that Fuxian City would definitely not be able to hold it. That’s why I made this move, but I definitely didn’t intend to defect…”

He is still trying to make excuses, but Lu Chen has no intention of listening to his nonsense.

"I see……"

He suddenly grasped it with his palms, and then the city lord suddenly felt a tearing pain in his body, and he screamed.

But the screams only stopped abruptly because his mouth had been sealed.

At this moment, what Lu Chen was holding was the golden elixir in his Dantian, which was slowly spinning in his hand.

The city lord's eyes widened in horror, watching helplessly as the other party played with his golden elixir.

"interesting."

Lu Chen closed his eyes and put his consciousness into it, and actually heard the sounds of the evil beasts around him.

It seems that the source is here.

When he opened his eyes, he already had a plan in mind.

Then he glanced at the city lord.

There was a clear "bang".

As if glass was broken, the city lord's body exploded, leaving no traces like the previous Jindan elders.

Even the blood evaporated quickly, and the only thing on this land that proved their existence just now was the burning bonfire in the middle.

And after having this golden elixir, Lu Chen found that he could actually understand the communications of those evil beasts.

To be precise, those low-level evil beasts themselves have no intelligence. After reaching the foundation building stage, they will send out some spiritual communication, and only at the golden elixir stage and above will have more complete language.

And after several experiments, he also understood a more accurate usage.

For example, the distance and distance of those sounds represented the distance between the evil beast itself and him.

The closer the distance, the clearer the sound, making communication easier.

Finding it interesting, Lu Chen simply pretended to be a newly transformed evil beast and started trying to communicate with other evil beasts.

With his Nascent Soul stage level control ability, other evil beasts couldn't find the flaw at all. Instead, they respected him because of his disguised strength at the Golden Core stage.

It seems that there is also a very strong class consciousness among the evil beasts.

It's just a pity that these low-level evil beasts don't know any secrets. Even if you ask them questions, they don't know everything.

The most common discussion about these things is where there are humans and where there is delicious food. In addition to sleeping, their daily life consists of eating or killing, and they have no other physiological desires.
