The villain's daily corpse collection

Most of the monks who entered the secret realm gathered here at this time. Everyone had fought to exhaustion, and most of them had wounds of varying sizes. The ancient beast Taotie had thick skin and flesh, and could not be injured by ordinary forces. Some of the external wounds looked bloody, but in fact they did not hurt the root.

The huge beast's heavy breathing was filled with poisonous miasma, and the spiritual plants around it were withered and dead. It also looked a little tired from the battle, and suddenly it groaned in a low voice for a long while, but no one knew what it was doing.

"Oh no, it has companions nearby!" The female expert under King Qing Du Lian was the first to discover Taotie's behavior and issued a warning immediately.

"If there's another one, we'll all die here!" the monk beside him shouted, "Nu Ku, I want the treasure, but I want my life more. I won't fight with you anymore. I'm leaving first."

"Liang Mo, your place was given by His Royal Highness Prince Qing. How dare you disobey me?" The female monk turned around and pointed her knife in front of the male monk. "No matter what the outcome is today, if you dare to escape from the battlefield, I will cut off your kneecap first, so that you can't even take a single step!"

"It's already this late, and you're still fighting among yourselves?" The female monk who had not thrown away her veil even when the battle was fierce immediately stepped forward to stop them. "For now, we must unite and fight that monster. There has never been a situation where everyone is wiped out at the beginning of a secret realm challenge. We have a chance to win!"

The earth trembled, and the stones on the road were blown away. In the distance, the familiar sound of a baby crying came from the sky. The sound was heartbreaking and frightening to the listeners. Some monks were even shocked to the point of nausea.

That sound... there was no way of knowing where it came from. It just felt like a torrent coming from all directions, and everyone was watching the movements around them vigilantly.

Wang Wei no longer hesitated, she turned around and told Huo Feng to stay where he was. Huo Feng shook his head decisively: "Master, how can I watch you take risks alone?"

"If I'm injured, help me heal." She said this, and without looking back, she jumped down from the towering ancient tree.

Wang Wei silently chanted a spell in mid-air, and the wolf-tail whisk appeared immediately. The wind swept away the remaining clouds in all directions, sweeping up the flying sand and rocks, and the ancient leaves of the trees dancing wildly in the air.

The grey sleeves of her clothes rustled in the wind. She stepped on the spiritual leaves and flying stones, standing alone, waving her whisk, and drew countless precise magic arrays in the void at a speed that could not be detected by the naked eye. The turquoise spiritual power hovered in the sky, dispelling the darkness around her. For a moment, it was as if the world had changed, and the night was illuminated by a powerful force.

Everyone realized from their panic that someone had come, and seemed to be here to help them.

The magic circle was formed and fixed as soon as it fell. The magic circle filled with spells suppressed the Taotie that was leaning over and growling, and it could not move.

"It's been immobilized. Is there a master helping it?" The female cultivator in the veiled hat looked up at Wang Wei in the air, and then she was protected by another female cultivator in pink clothes behind her without leaving a trace.

The Taotie was still struggling, and was determined to break free from the formation. When everyone thought it was about to break free, the spell on the formation surrounding the Taotie suddenly changed, and hundreds of sharp ice cones suddenly pierced out from the light seal. The ice blades were also weapons, and they pierced through the body of the Taotie below mercilessly. The transparent ice cones were immediately covered with a stream of dark purple and fishy blood. Looking at the Taotie that was stabbed like a pufferfish, its body was swollen and it was already dead.

Under everyone's surprised gaze, Wang Wei slowly landed and stopped, and the magic circle turned into light and slowly merged into the night. Huo Feng came out from the side and followed her. Huo Feng was worried just now, so he moved to a position not far from Wang Wei.

"The eyes belong to me, and the rest..." Wang Wei was about to use her whisk to collect the spoils, but suddenly she remembered that she was also borrowing someone else's quota. She searched the crowd for a moment and saw the two brothers Xue Bo and Xue Ji supporting each other as they walked forward. "The distribution of the rest depends on how they divide it."

She waved her whisk and gouged out the eyes of the Taotie that grew under its armpits. Huo Feng took out the space storage bag at the right time and put them in. The two of them stepped aside and chatted leisurely.

The Xue brothers had no objection to this distribution. They didn't care about something as insignificant as the eyes. What they wanted more was the tiger teeth of the Taotie, which were as sharp as blades. Each tooth could be made into a dagger that could cut through iron like mud. As for the flesh and blood of the Taotie, it was naturally poisonous, and the bones could naturally be polished and made into weapons.

Only 95% of it, they really didn't lie. The Xue brothers looked at each other, took out the space storage bag and prepared to put away the whole Taotie.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Liang Mo stepped forward and said, "We have contributed a lot before, why do you want to take all the credit?"

He looked at the other people who had entered the secret realm and fanned the flames, "In the first round of fighting against the Taotie just now, each of us tried our best and was seriously injured. Now they are taking advantage of us and usurping our achievements. I, Liang Mo, will be the first one to stop it!"

Nv Ku also stepped forward, playing with the boning knife in her hand, and spoke half-threateningly: "Although we each serve our own masters outside, we must be fair in everything. If you dare to take something that does not belong to you from my sight today, you must consider whether your kneecaps will be on your own body tomorrow."

As the best fighter under Prince Qing, she had a peculiar quirk: she was famous for gouging out other people's kneecaps, hence the name Nükui. Her fame even overshadowed that of her master, Prince Qing, the second son of the emperor, who was said to be weak and cowardly.

The two brothers Xue Bo and Xue Ji had been in the capital for many years, and naturally had met Nu Ku several times, and they knew her temperament well. While they were still hesitating, others continued to gather around and move forward. Perhaps they were facing a human instead of a ferocious beast, and everyone regained their confidence. They held weapons in their hands and showed an unflinching look.

The twin brothers knew that they had gotten carried away, and were quite shocked to see Wang Wei's clean and neat moves. They hadn't seen much of a difference in the previous competition, but now they saw the truth in this critical moment.

Such a formation with multiple layers of mystical techniques would require at least dozens of powerful monks to work together to cast the spells, without any mistakes, in order for the formation to produce a similar effect. As a result, she alone seemed to have easily created a formation with great lethality and killed the Taotie... If this continued, wouldn't the two brothers be able to win without doing anything?

"Master Mo Wei, since you killed this Taotie, you should be the one to distribute it." Xue Bo spoke and threw the hot potato back to Wang Wei.

Wang Wei intentionally avoided all this and stood not far behind, cleaning the blood and impurities on the whisk. When she heard someone calling her, she subconsciously frowned.

Huo Feng was very observant. He asked Wang Wei to wait for him and then walked towards the crowd alone.

"My master has just made it very clear. I will leave it to you to divide. As for how to divide it, it is entirely up to you two immortals." Huo Feng said bluntly, and his attitude was cold and stern. "My master has done enough. She saved all of your lives by herself. Not only did you not thank her, but you also bothered her with such nonsense. There is no need for you to repay her, but please don't go too far."

Some people in the arguing crowd began to look apologetic.

The female monk with the veil stepped forward first and said, "I need no words to thank you for your kindness. I will remember it in my heart. If you need me in the future, I will definitely help you."

A pair of senior brothers and sisters from Congshan Sect also came forward to express their gratitude.

Huo Feng turned and looked at Wang Wei. She flicked her whisk, nodded slightly to everyone, turned around and did not come forward.

"Everyone, survive first." Wang Wei lowered her eyes and looked at the ground under the feet of the people opposite her, with an unclear expression. The next moment, she teleported to Huo Feng's side, brought him off the ground, and stopped him in mid-air.

The pink-robed nun immediately grabbed the veiled nun's waist and lifted her off the ground. Others followed suit.

An unknown fear arose in the hearts of the cultivators. They had just displayed their magical powers and flew in the air, and the next moment, dark ravines appeared on the ground, and a huge monster emerged from the cracks.

——It was the companion summoned by Taotie before.

Obviously, it has its own wisdom. The ancient ferocious beasts are not only cruel, but the key to survival is the ability to think.

This Taotie was three or four times larger than its dead companion. Not only that, it could also burrow underground, using its own magic power to complete an ambush in the dark night. If Wang Wei hadn't been there, it would have succeeded.

Wang Wei seemed to have relaxed since she killed the smaller Taotie, but she was actually on guard. She was sure that her summoned companions would wait for an opportunity to take revenge, either tonight or at some point tomorrow. The ultimate pursuit of revenge could also be called a kind of greed.

With the light from various magical instruments, she saw the dark shadow on the body of the glutton. She had seen this dark shadow before - the remaining part of Shi Yao's body had met her before.

Everyone looked at Wang Wei, who used the magic circle she had just used. Although the magic circle was powerful, it also had a fatal weakness. The prelude was too long, even though her speed in setting up the formation was already very fast. Taotie would not wait patiently, and it roared on the ground. Everyone was shocked by the sound waves and could not concentrate on flying, and fell back to the ground.

At this critical moment, Wang Wei's spellcasting was interrupted many times by the chaotic scene. Everyone had to take out their weapons to fight against the Taotie first. Huo Feng looked at Wang Wei worriedly: "Master, how are you? This formation..."

Wang Wei withdrew his hand and said helplessly: "...It's too noisy. I can't calm down and start the formation."

Too much spiritual energy has been used today. Although the power of the demon has recovered by nearly 20% after finding the artifact in hand, and the spiritual energy in the body has also recovered a little, it is still far from enough.

"Do as I say." Wang Wei stared into Huo Feng's eyes, and Huo Feng nodded firmly.

The group of cultivators were having a bloody battle with the larger Taotie on the ground. Even though they were surrounded by more than a dozen people, in the eyes of the Taotie, the cultivators had transformed into delicacies and were surrounding them. Its eyes hidden in its armpits showed an excited and fierce light. Its saliva dripped onto the ground, and another piece of spiritual plant suffered.

Huo Feng drew his sword and stood in front of his chest, silently chanting the incantation, with two fingers pressed against the sword, condensing the sword energy at the tip of the sword, and the sword intent spanned the universe, forming a spiritual sword formation composed of thousands of swords. The sword formation turned into a thorny cage, nailing every inch of Taotie's flesh into the ground under his feet, imprisoning it in place and unable to move.

"Did it work?" someone asked in surprise.

"It's temporary." Wang Wei came in front of the cultivators, "I just discovered something. I suspect this Taotie was deliberately manipulated by someone, and it wasn't called by a companion."

"Why do you say that, Immortal Mo?" Yu Xuanzi asked in confusion.

"We should still be in the first level of the secret realm. Is it so difficult? The secret realm was not created for killing people, so I think there is something fishy." Wang Wei analyzed, "Killing Taotie is not the key to solving the problem. Only when we find the root of the problem can we be truly safe."

The female monk in the veil stepped forward and bowed, saying, "May I ask what plans Immortal Mo has?"

Wang Wei glanced at everyone and said, "There are still twelve of us left. Stay with four to reinforce the sword formation, and the rest of you, follow me to find the person behind the scenes."

All the cultivators said they wanted to go with Wang Wei, but no one volunteered to stay, so after a debate, they fell into silence. At this time, Huo Feng took the initiative to stay, but Wang Wei looked at him deeply and did not express his opinion.

At this time, the Congshan sect master and his sister, who were dressed in plain gold Taoist robes, also volunteered to stay and maintain the formation. They believed that preventing the Taotie from breaking out of the formation was also a very critical link, and they would provide solid support for everyone.

The pink-robed nun who had a close relationship with the veiled nun also stood up and said, "I'm staying here. I hope you can take care of... take care of Fairy Yunqiao, my... my friend." She was not good at speaking and stumbled when she spoke, but her eyes towards Wang Wei were extremely firm. After getting Wang Wei's affirmation, she turned to look at the veiled nun, who nodded slightly. Her expression could not be seen clearly because of the veil, but it could be seen from her body language that the pink-robed nun stayed because of her.

"Let's go to the east." Wang Wei said to the other monks and started on another path.

The east is the only place with signs of human survival. This was also learned from the senior brothers and sisters of Congshan Sect. When they passed by the east, they saw smoke rising and wanted to explore it in detail, but they heard someone shouting in the forest, so they turned around and left to help.

Everyone quickened their pace, showing their abilities, and soon reached the east. After passing through this dense forest, there was an open area, which seemed to be a large farmland.

It was late at night, and someone took out a magic tool to light a lamp and scanned the entire farmland, suddenly startling a flock of crows. They flapped their black wings and made creepy songs. Liang Mo was so scared that he pushed the people around him. Nu Ku was about to explode, but when she turned around, she was startled by a tall black figure.

It was a scarecrow, standing alone in the middle of the field, wearing a straw hat that was pulled down so that its face could not be seen clearly. In its hand was a straw fan, with holes in the fan, which was nothing unusual.

"Where did this scarecrow come from?" Wang Wei asked with a frown.

"What's wrong with it being in this position?" the woman asked after regulating her breathing.

There is no moon tonight, and the night is exceptionally dark. Previously, there were spiritual plants near the camp that emitted light and illuminated the surrounding environment. However, this is where mortals live, and no spiritual creatures are born. At this time, every household has already fallen asleep, so there will be no extra light, and only magic tools can still be used.

"Although we didn't light the lamp just now, as practitioners, we should have a special sense of some abrupt things. Even if we don't use our eyes, we should have intuition."

Wang Wei made it clear, "I feel like this scarecrow wasn't here at the beginning."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a chill down their spine.
