Chapter 355 Human Snake
This information was very important. Lin Zhao thanked Xu Xingtian, walked out the door, and glanced at the Heavenly Mirror. It seemed that Qu Shu knew she was looking at the Heavenly Mirror at this time.

"Before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, do not use the Heavenly Phoenix Body again, and do not trust Youli."

Lin Zhao didn't ask why, and replied "okay" without much thought.

Choosing between Youli and Qushu, which is more important, is not a particularly difficult question for Lin Zhao.

Grandma Honghu didn't understand: "Strictly speaking, the amount of time Youli has spent with you isn't much different from that of Qu Shu."

Lin Zhao found it difficult to explain her feelings for the two to Grandma Honghu. If Youli gave her the feeling that he was always planning to stab her in the back, then Qu Shu was a comrade-in-arms who was always worth fighting alongside.

Therefore, Lin Zhao herself was surprised and curious that her counterpart from another timeline was willing to form a Daoist couple contract with Qu Shu.

Because her revolutionary camaraderie with her comrade Qu Shu far surpassed the romantic feelings between men and women.

Even so, it far surpasses his feelings for Youli.

Following the map Xu Xingtian had given her, she quickly found Yang Tuo's address. After placing several talismans on her head and putting on an invisibility cloak, confirming that no one below the True Immortal level could see her, Lin Zhao dared to take out her compass and cautiously step into Yang Tuo's territory.

This was the first time she had ever been so cautious and cunning.

The reason is simple: this time, the opponent is a cunning and highly skilled spirit talisman master.

Even if there were suspicions that the other party was using his family's wealth and his sect's achievements to freeload, it could not negate the fact that Yang Tuo was indeed a spirit talisman master of a higher level than himself.

Using talismans to detect formations or arrays in someone's residence is like lighting a lamp in a toilet—it's suicidal.

Therefore, this old-fashioned and outdated compass became Lin Zhao's primary choice for detection.

Almost every talisman master learns compass detection for a period of time when they first start out. Lin Zhao spent even more time on this because he was self-taught and had to spend more time studying things than talisman masters who had a master.

This actually makes it easier for Lin Zhao to carry out infiltration missions now.

Yang Tuo was probably busy with other things, so Lin Zhao sneaked into the depths of his mansion without any hindrance, but he still almost stepped on several of his defensive formations.

As they walked, Lin Zhao remarked, "This guy, if he's not naturally cunning, he must have done something shady."

The entire courtyard was covered in array formations, and even though she was proceeding cautiously step by step, she almost got trapped inside.

As she spoke, Lin Zhao was also somewhat relieved that she had done a good job of preparation. "Fortunately, this time the invisibility cloak can also block out aura and temperature."

Otherwise, the array at the entrance, which senses abnormal temperature, would have already given a warning when you entered.

After Lin Zhao found the room, before he even went inside, he heard some strange noises coming from not far away.

She turned her head and saw something strange writhing and struggling on the ground.

As they drew closer, Lin Zhao realized it was a human-snake hybrid.

This discovery made Lin Zhao frown.

Although both have human bodies and snake tails, human-snakes and snake-humans are different. They are not born as spirit beasts. Strictly speaking, they cannot be considered spirit beasts or humans.

It is a product of calamity. When an extremely evil aura condenses on a person, there is a one in ten thousand chance that the person will become a human-snake after a painful death.

There were snakes in Yang Tuo's mansion.

Lin Zhao looked at the room, but instead of going in directly, he chose to find the human-snake.

This human-snake was covered in various signs of abuse.

However, the abuser clearly did not intend to torture him, but rather to kill him outright.

Lin Zhao could understand this person's thoughts; this human-snake was clearly not yet fully grown. The first three months after a human-snake's birth are the weakest, and this is also the time when it is most likely to kill them.

However, it is only a possibility that they might be killed.

This creature was born from the evil thoughts of heaven and earth. From birth, it can absorb evil thoughts and malice to strengthen itself and become a terrifying existence that wreaks havoc on the world.

Unlike demons, the human-snake has no desire for human flesh and blood, but it harbors the purest malice towards all living beings in the world.

It can be said that after the three-month infancy period, the human-snake hybrid is feared by both humans and demons.

This human-snake is clearly in its third month of infancy; given more time, it will become an adult.

Clearly, this human-snake was created by Yang Tuo; otherwise, he wouldn't have kept such a thing. Therefore, he used various methods to try and kill it.

However, Yang Tuo was clearly out of options.

Lin Zhao watched the human-snake writhing and struggling on the ground for a while, and suddenly realized that the other's gaze was meeting his own through the void.

"Help me, help me!"

The wounds on his body indicated that he had just escaped from Yang Tuo's imprisonment.

The human-snake is extremely beautiful and can bewitch people. When it begs a cultivator, few can escape its charm.

This is why almost all cultivators were terrified after the birth of the human-snake hybrid.

Lin Zhao remained unmoved, observing the human-snake's every word and action.

She could smell the strong, fishy stench emanating from the human-snake, and feel the deep, greedy malice directed at her from the depths of its eyes.

It is a creature even more filthy and terrifying than a monster.

However, it is also a monster created by Yang Tuo.

Lin Zhao walked towards him.

He thought he had succeeded and smiled.

However, the next moment, a purple longsword gleaming with golden light was placed against his neck.

"Stop making that strange face." Lin Zhao scrutinized him. "You should be able to sense that I can kill you completely, right?"

The snake's tail slowly twisted together, but even more twisted than its tail was its expression.

His eyes were bulging upwards, making his face look even more terrifying than the monsters in storybooks.

Lin Zhao asked expressionlessly, "Do you want revenge?"

The distorted face of the human-snake remained frozen.

Lin Zhao paused for a moment: "I won't spare you, but if you want revenge, I can personally help you eliminate the enemy who created you."

The human-snake creature is born to absorb the evil thoughts and malice between heaven and earth. However, no matter what kind of creature it is, absorbing these is extremely painful.

However, their near-immortality makes even suicide a luxury for them.

In the cultivation world, those recorded as human-snake hybrids ultimately chose to walk the path to the Yellow Springs, where they transformed into the world's malevolent forces.

From birth, they endure pain and harm from themselves and from the outside world, and they are eager to share this malice and harm with all living beings.

This was a tragic creature to begin with.
