Through the daily life of Ghost Slayer

Chapter 176 Poisonous Corpse
Before he had time to think about it, Zhang Xie rushed towards the direction pointed by the Dark Lord.

The Dark Lord shouted from behind: "Where are you going? Are you afraid of my master? Get out! Get out! Then get out!"

Going up the road, on the side of Nanshan Mountain, Zhang Xie found a lying corpse, wearing the general's armor, covered with strange weeds, the grass was light green, the leaves were mottled, and the veins were complicated, faintly showing the shape of a human face.

Zhang Xie inspected it carefully, and found that it didn't look like the armor worn by General He. He breathed a sigh of relief, and turned the corpse over with a branch. The face of the corpse was so rotten that it was difficult to identify. Zhang Xie found a piece of jade formula on his chest.

Zhang Xie wrapped it in the palm of his hand with the method of earth shield, pulled off the jade formula, and examined it carefully.

There is blood on the jade formula, which cannot be wiped off. The whole body of the jade formula is crystal clear, engraved with mysterious characters. Zhang Xie carefully identified these characters, which are completely different from the patterns on the armor of General He's soldiers.

Zhang Xie wrapped the jade formula in cloth, put it in his pocket, and searched the corpse again, but found nothing else.

From the direction where the corpse fell to the ground, Zhang Xie judged that the corpse was heading up the mountain, perhaps chasing someone.

Zhang Xie first thought that this person was chasing and killing General He, but felt that there were too many loopholes in this guess.

Apart from the footprints of the corpse, there are no other footprints here.

The deadly wound on the corpse was only on the neck, which was a blunt wound. This person must be strong enough to chase and kill General He. Why was he killed with one blow?

There is only one corpse here, if there are mountain gods, there must be reinforcements, how could they put the corpse here and ignore it.

Zhang Xie searched for several miles, but found nothing.

The clue ends here again.

Unwilling, Zhang Xie inspected the corpse carefully, and suddenly found a dark green spot on the neck of the corpse. The same was found on the corpse in the swamp.

Zhang Xie pushed aside the opponent's skirt, and used a branch to stir up the green spots. The green spots were imprinted in the flesh, and wiped off together with the flesh, but the green spots were still faintly visible on the bones.

Zhang Xie concluded that this person died of poisoning just like the corpse on the swamp.

But he had never seen such a poison.

He picked up a thin-edged stone, scraped off the green spots on the bones, and found a small bottle on the body to hold the scraped bone meal.

For three consecutive days, Zhang Xie was active near the Nanshan side, trying to find a clue.

During the period, he went back to the swamp, but did not see the Dark Lord again. The swamp had decomposed the poison on the corpse, and it was no longer toxic.

Zhang Xie couldn't help worrying about whether the energy in the poison-avoiding bead was poisonous. Once it happened, it would endanger his life, but no matter how much power he used, there was no abnormality.

Ever since he absorbed the energy in the anti-drug bead, Zhang Xie always felt that something was missing in his body, but he couldn't tell what it was.

Whether it's strength, speed or mental power, the performance is perfect. If it weren't for the seemingly vacant feeling, Zhang Xie would never have thought that there was a problem with the poison-avoiding beads.

He remembered that there was a bead in the lava river. Forced by the strange feeling in his body, he decided to solve his own problem first.

After making up his mind, he went to Dongshan.

The magma river is halfway up the mountain. After passing through this place, this passage was abandoned and a new path was found. The crane general Tanaka Tsuruyi deputy general Tanaka Nokuma added three restrictions on both sides of the magma river, which aggravated the danger of the magma river.

The three prohibitions are Thunder Formation, Ten Thousand Sword Formation, and Raging Flame Formation.

Each formation is extremely powerful, even if General He came in person, if he did not have a skillful way to break the formation, he would still be trapped in the formation.

When Zhang Xie went down the mountain, he asked Tanaka Naoxiong how to break the formation. After closing three formations, he came to the magma river.

The magma river was steaming hot, and the magma was winding and crawling, bubbling and dark red. Standing in the distance, Zhang Xie still felt the heat wave hitting his face, and his exposed skin was slightly burning.

It's so dangerous, how to go down to find the pearl?Zhang Xie glanced at it from a distance, and felt like retreating.

After thinking about it again and again, Zhang Xie decided to try it with a soil shield.

With the help of powerful spiritual power, he didn't need to chant instant primary magic. With a thought, a dark yellow light curtain enveloped his body. Zhang Xielue felt cool, heartbroken, and walked forward.

After three or four steps, I felt dry and hot, and it was still too early to reach my destination.

Gritting his teeth, Zhang Xie rushed forward a few steps, feeling like he was in a steamer, and the earth shield was also steaming hot.

Soon, the soil shield couldn't support it, and broke with a snap, and Zhang Xie immediately put a new layer on his body.

The steaming heat made him sweat like rain. It was hard to imagine how General He's army could survive this treacherous lava river. But Zhang Xie didn't know that the restrictions placed by General He and his lieutenants had secretly changed the structure of the magma river. , which originally flowed into the core, sucking cold air from between the rocks, thereby cooling the magma exposed to the air.

However, the air around the three prohibitions no longer circulates, and all the prohibited energy is taken from the magma river, forming a tendency to draw backwards. The magma river has to extract energy from the earth's core, and the energy of the earth's core is huge, pouring back into the magma river. , the temperature increased sharply.

As soon as the three restrictions were lifted, the air returned, and the energy of the earth's core was completely released. The huge energy accumulated in a short period of time poured out. Even if Zhang Xie was not weak, otherwise he would have been heated to death on the outside.

Furthermore, when the cranes crossed the river, they used magic weapons, otherwise most of the soldiers would have difficulty crossing the river.

Zhang Xie took a few more steps forward, but couldn't take it any longer, so he retreated immediately.

After he was far away from the magma river, he removed the earth shield and took a long breath. The heat had not gone away, and it took him a long time to calm down.

"What a powerful magma river." Zhang Xie sighed.

With the current strength, Zhang Xie is very unwilling to go deep.

After wandering around the South Mountain and the swamp for five days, Zhang Xie met the Dark Lord again.

The Dark Lord pouted his ass, lying on his stomach at the entrance of the cave, and looked into the cave.

This is a shallow hole formed naturally, neither deep nor large, and it can be seen at a glance.

Zhang Xie shouted: "Hei big guy, what are you looking at?"

The Dark Lord was taken aback, jumped up with an ouch, glared at Zhang Xie and said, "What are you doing here again?"

Zhang Xie said, "I'll do what you do here."

The Dark Lord stroked his smooth head and stared at Zhang Xie.

Zhang Xie felt uncomfortable being watched, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

The Dark Lord laughed, pointed at Zhang Xie's nose and said, "Have you been to the Lava River? Haha, I knew you would go to the Lava River."

Zhang Xiedao: "That's right, I went to the Lava River."

The Dark Lord smiled and said, "Then you definitely won't be able to go down."

Zhang Xie asked deliberately: "Can you go down?"

The Dark Lord said ashamedly: "I can only go down and stay for a while, it won't work after a long time, my master won't allow me to look for the beads."

Zhang Xie was startled secretly, and then thought again, this big black man with a simple head and a foolish brain, most of what he said was crazy, and he couldn't believe it, but the sense of emptiness in his body was getting stronger and stronger, and he desperately wanted to get the fire beads.

The Dark Lord said proudly: "My master said that I have great potential. Do you know who my master is? He is the best in the world and unbeatable."

Zhang Xie said: "But you dare not go down the lava river."
