Excessive ferocity due to caution
Chapter 635 "Exorcising Evil" - Slay Me
Having dealt with this vengeful ghost, the remaining ghosts posed no further threat to Zhao Yi.
The gap in strength is too large.
The people on the mountain only saw the number of the evil spirits, but Zhao Yi saw an opportunity to make his move.
As it turned out, his judgment was more accurate.
What was originally an almost indestructible force was reduced to chaos as the remaining ghosts fled in disarray after the vengeful spirit at the head died.
These ghosts have no thoughts; they act solely on instinct.
Unconsciously, the 'commands' that control them were temporarily suppressed by the growing fear.
Zhao Yi dissected the ghostly creature before him, activating his ox-dissection skills, which revealed new clues.
The vengeful ghost before us was once a high-level expert in the Unity of Heaven and Man realm, known in the martial arts world as Zhu Huang. More than seventy years ago, he went into seclusion, wanting to focus on exploring the future of martial arts. However, when he encountered the spread of diseases and evil spirits in the world, Zhu Huang stepped forward, wanting to save the world from its suffering.
Unfortunately, he overestimated his abilities.
During one of his battles, he accidentally contracted the disease. After struggling against it for several years, he ultimately could not escape the fate of becoming a vengeful ghost.
Because of his great strength, the disease's corrosive effect on him was much weaker, which is why Zhao Yi is now able to see some of his precious memories.
For example... that familiar figure.
Even though in Zhu Huang's memory, there was only a lonely, staggering figure walking alone in the wind and snow, Zhao Yi could still tell at a glance that this person was Ren Wudi!
"It really was him..."
A glint flashed in Zhao's eyes.
Having been through this world before, it wouldn't be difficult for him to guess the source of the illness.
Moreover, not long before entering the martial arts world, he had just emerged from Fangfang's spiritual world. By making a simple horizontal comparison, he could see exactly what was going on with the disease that was ravaging the Warring States period.
But the real challenge of this movie is finding Ren Wudi... and how to get rid of him.
Judging from the current state of disease in the six kingdoms, Ren Wudi's strength has reached a considerable level, even more terrifying than Fangfang before she sealed herself away!
If that's the case, even for Zhao Yi now, it would be very difficult to defeat and kill Ren Wudi in a head-on confrontation!
The path of evil leads only to destruction and ruin.
Disrespectful to heaven, disrespectful to earth, and disrespectful to oneself!
Destroy everything, shatter all!
Ren Wudi has a deep-seated obsession with Zhao Yiben. What would it be like if the two met again?
Zhao Yi searched through the memory world of the vengeful ghost before him for all information about Ren Wudi, and finally found a clue!
"The Mausoleum of Shenying of the Qi Kingdom?"
Zhao Yi was slightly surprised.
This was the first time he had heard of this place. The last time he came to this world to complete a mission, the pace was quite fast, and the plot took place in the State of Lu, which meant that Zhao Yi did not have a deep understanding of the other states of the Warring States period.
Judging from Zhu Huang's memories, Ren Wudi is most likely in that place!
"Perhaps we should talk to Su Xingcan first."
Zhao Yibin wasn't in a hurry. This film role gave him plenty of time, so he could prepare more thoroughly.
Several people came up behind him, glanced at the mess on the ground, and when they looked at Zhao Yi, their eyes were filled with intense fear.
"Brother Zhao Yi...elder brother."
"Did you find anything?"
Huang Li subconsciously wanted to call Zhao Yi "Brother Zhao," but suddenly felt unworthy, so she immediately changed her address.
This is common in Beijing.
The strong always look down on the weak.
"The source of the disease is the Shenying Mausoleum in the State of Qi."
The group frowned upon hearing this, and Huang Li quickly produced another tattered map.
She found this map in the mansion of a wealthy man along the way. Although it was quite tattered, it was still barely legible.
"The State of Qi... the State of Qi..."
She bit her finger and searched carefully, finally pinpointing an area in a corner of the map.
"Holy crap...it's that far?"
Huang Li glanced at her teammates, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke:
"Brother Zhao, judging from the scale on the map, the State of Qi is at least several hundred miles away from here. Why don't we go to Bright Cliff first and see if there are any locals there who can help us find our way?"
Zhao Yi threw the cigarette butt into the blood of the vengeful ghost's corpse, watching it slowly go out.
"certainly."
"But before that, there's one more important thing to do..."
Huang Li's expression faltered slightly.
"What's so important?"
Zhao Yidao:
"In the center of the Valley of Burial Soldiers, there is also a tomb where the source of the disaster and disease is kept, which is why these vengeful ghosts gather here."
"I need to go and take a look before I leave."
A woman in the oriole flock immediately said:
"Shall we head back first?"
Zhao Yi:
"random."
Seeing that Zhao Yi did not insist on keeping them, these people hurriedly thanked him and left.
Now that they've found the clues for the main quest, they can stop now. The rest is none of their business, and it's not worth continuing the adventure.
After they left, Zhao Yi went to the mausoleum.
The rotting heart spoke:
"I can sense that there are beings like me inside the tomb."
Enter the tomb and proceed downwards.
After slaying some evil spirits, Zhao Yi found a withered skeleton sitting by the lava deep inside the tomb.
Unlike the rotting heart, this skeleton was scorched by subterranean fire, its surface blackened, and it exuded only a faint, eerie aura.
"You've finally arrived..."
Skeletal opening.
Zhao Yi was surprised:
Do you know me?
skeleton:
"He's looking for you."
Zhao Yi smiled and said:
"After all, he's an old friend."
"There are still unresolved issues between him and me."
skeleton:
"pity……"
Zhao Yi asked:
"What's a pity?"
skeleton:
"You're a little too late, otherwise you could have reunited here."
Zhao Yi crossed his arms and asked, puzzled:
Why did he come to this place?
skeleton:
"It's just reminiscing about old friends."
"He regretted it when you parted ways here. If he hadn't been in such a hurry to solidify his understanding back then, but instead fought you first, he wouldn't have this regret today."
"Back then, you gave him a chance."
"But he didn't cherish it."
Zhao Yi coughed.
He was just using the situation to show off.
If a real fight breaks out, he'll be hung up and beaten by Ren Wudi.
"And you...you were also born because of him?"
The skeleton suddenly shifted its head to the side, its eye sockets, like black holes, staring at Zhao Yi:
"Didn't your heart tell you?"
Zhao Yi raised an eyebrow:
"What are you going to say?"
The rotting heart chimed in:
"What are you going to say?"
The skeleton remained silent for a moment.
"You forgot?"
Rotten heart:
"Forgot what?"
skeleton:
"It seems you really have forgotten."
"You, me, and...they, all belong to him."
The rotting heart is horrifying:
"You mean...we are that guy's bodies?"
skeleton:
"It used to be."
"But that's not the case now."
Zhao Yi frowned:
Why would he dig out his own heart and bones?
The skeleton fell silent again, and this time it remained silent for a long time.
Finally, it said:
"Slay me."
