Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

"Retreat quickly!"

Even though he was shrouded in scarlet mist, Gu Xing did not hesitate and retreated directly in the direction he came from.

However, the scarlet mist seemed to have no end.

They retreated for an unknown number of miles, and everything around them was scarlet.

Moreover, the color seemed to be darker, and the smell of blood became stronger.

Gu Xing kept his eyes on the official road at his feet from beginning to end to ensure that he was not going in the wrong direction.

But even so, the surrounding scene seemed to be getting stranger and stranger, and they seemed to be on other official roads.

Upon realizing this, Gu Xing's heart tightened.

Even though he was so cautious, he still seemed to be fascinated by the mist.

This also made him think deeply, what the hell is this fog?

At the same time, he was also preparing to activate the power of the beholder again to explore the surroundings.

After all, running around aimlessly will only consume your energy in vain.

However, at this moment, Chen Erniu stared in one direction and said again.

"Brother Gu, there is someone there... no, a body."

Corpse?

Gu Xing silently looked towards where he was looking, but it was still just a thick fog.

"be ready."

Although the corpses I encountered before were extremely weak, now that they were in the scarlet mist, the corpses might also change.

As he expected, the newly appeared corpse was indeed different from the previous one.

The biggest difference is appearance.

On the whole, this newly appeared corpse is not that shriveled, and its clothes are not tattered. Apart from the corpse spots and pale skin, it is not much different from a normal person.

As soon as the other party appeared, he rushed towards Gu Xing.

The corpse was very fast, but it was still not as fast as Gu Xing.

As soon as the water comes out, it is trapped.

However, the next moment, water splashed.

The corpse actually broke free with the strength of its body.

Gu Xing's expression was solemn. Although he controlled the water flow to bind, the effect was not very good and the binding ability was not enough.

But that's only for people who are at the same level as Gu Xing.

And being able to break free from the shackles is at least a step up in the inner realm.

So, when the corpse rushed towards him, Gu Xing became more cautious and directly opened the Mysterious Intent Realm.

Under the power of the mysterious realm, various movements of the corpse were analyzed and predicted. Gu Xing moved around without even being touched.

Chen Erniu, who was next to him, did not take action. This was Gu Xing's order. He wanted to observe this obviously different corpse.

There is no doubt that the corpse is a corpse, it is not weird, and it has no aura of life.

But his physical body is strong, and it is estimated that he must have had the strength of the inner palace during his lifetime.

In addition to the physical body, there seems to be true energy in his body. During his actions, the true energy emerges, adding power to his attacks.

It's just that there isn't much infuriating energy, and it gradually decreases as the corpses are taken out.

Gu Xing was a little confused about this.

Because after the death of a practitioner, the remaining true energy in the body will gradually dissipate.

However, the true energy in the corpse was tightly locked in the body. Except for the muscle memory during the attack, Gu Xing basically didn't notice any true energy escaping.

What ability is this?

Gu Xing, who had never seen such a situation before, was puzzled.

After the observation was almost complete, Gu Xing immediately pulled out his long knife and cut the body in two.

Blood spattered, and there was still blood in the corpse, and it seemed to be quite fresh, but the color was a little dim.

The two corpses that fell on the ground were still moving, crawling towards Gu Xing.

Gu Xing frowned and chopped them into pieces, and then they stopped moving.

"It's hard to deal with!"

Gu Xing thought.

If it was just a simple one, then there would be no problem.

But if the number is a little too much, it will be troublesome.

The most troublesome thing is that he still doesn't know how to get out of this scarlet mist.

It may be possible to escape from the void, but it is also dangerous in the void, and you may not come out if you go in, so it can only be used as a last resort, and he will generally not use it until there is no end.

Speaking of which, since he gained the ability to escape from the void, he has only used it once.

On weekdays, he actually tried to escape from the void.

But as soon as he opened the crack in the void and prepared to escape into it, he could feel a great sense of crisis.

Although this sense of crisis was not directed at him, it also made him stay away from the void.

That is not a place that his current strength can reach.

If you go in, you're lucky, but if you're not lucky, if you encounter any danger, you can just wait for death.

One person and one cow continued walking along the official road.

Apart from official roads, they now have no better way to identify the direction.

Not long after leaving, they encountered another corpse.

This corpse was somewhat special. It was covered in armor, and the armor was full of mottled marks. It seemed that it had suffered many attacks.

In addition to the armor, the corpse also held a spear in its hand. The spear was sharp and had bright blood stains on its tip.

This corpse is much stronger than the previous one.

Especially with that martial arts skill, Gu Xing was a little overwhelmed when wielding the spear, even with the presence of the Mysterious Intent.

Apart from sword skills, Gu Xing actually didn't know much about martial arts.

Even the sword skills rely more on strength and sharpness to overwhelm people, and there are many deficiencies in skills.

The corpse in front of him was just the opposite. He was not as powerful as Gu Xing, but his skills were able to make up for the gap.

Gu Xing had no choice but to go all out and chop down the spear first.

Although the spear is also a magic weapon, it is just not popular.

Under the sharpness and double wave of the blazing knife, it naturally couldn't hold on and broke into two pieces with a click.

The corpse didn't seem to notice the break of the weapon, and still used the spear technique.

But the lengths were different, and the effects were different. Gu Xing seized the opportunity and chopped off the head of the corpse.

The armored body was still moving, but without its head, it looked like it was going crazy. In the end, it naturally turned into pieces under Gu Xing's knife.

He won the battle, but Gu Xing felt no joy at all.

This corpse showed much greater strength than the previous one, especially its spear-wielding skills, which were almost the same as a spear master standing in front of Gu Xing.

Can corpses also inherit the fighting skills of their lifetimes?

Gu Xing couldn't help but have this question in his mind.

In addition to this, the armor worn by the corpse also made Gu Xing think deeply.

The armor is made of metal and has been refined. Although it is not a magic weapon, it is extremely strong and difficult to break through with ordinary attacks.

But there are very few mineral resources in this world, and even ordinary pig iron is quite expensive.

In addition to the existence of magic weapons and the like, there are actually very few people wearing metal armor.

Even wilderness hunters who are exposed to life and death at any time usually wear leather armor or the like.

The only people Gu Xing had ever seen wearing metal armor were the city guards.

However, why do the corpses of the city guards appear in this scarlet mist?

However, before Gu Xing could come up with a result or guess, Chen Erniu suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Brother Gu, there are corpses all around."
