The Record of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 665 Demon

"In the past few days, there have been several deaths in South City, with more than ten victims. The dead were all found in a state of disfigurement."

Xu Yuxiu's figure appeared in this world, in a big city where people gathered.

There are various bustling streets here, and many vehicles of various sizes are traveling on the wide roads.

And on a tall building, there is a huge object hanging that can manifest images and sounds.

Xu Yuxiu stood at the intersection of two wide roads, looking up at the object that manifested images and sounds, and heard a woman narrating something.

That was exactly the purpose of her trip.

This world is different from the previous two worlds. There are traces of demonic activities here.

The target of her this time is a few demons and the people who were killed by these demons.

Xu Yuxiu was also quite surprised about the existence of monsters.

In such a world without spiritual energy, monsters should not be able to survive for long. However, the fact is that there are monsters that have survived in this world without spiritual energy.

However, although Xu Yuxiu could sense the existence of demonic energy in this world, it was so thin that it was almost overshadowed by human energy.

This made it impossible for her to directly locate the positions of those monsters.

We can only look for traces of those monsters from some clues in this world.

However, if the Book of Life and Death was used, it would not be difficult to find these monsters, but Xu Yuxiu deliberately did not use the Book of Life and Death to lock on these monsters.

Its purpose is just a small means of delaying time, not worth mentioning.

With her own methods, she found some clues after searching for several days.

Now, the case described by the woman on the object that could display images allowed her to find some clues.

If there are no mistakes or omissions, the victims in the several cases in South City should have been killed by demons.

But that's strange to say.

Obviously Xu Yuxiu had already read almost all the records in this world.

However, I found that the actions of these monsters were very strange.

These monsters don't usually appear easily, and they only appear in the world once every hundred years or so.

Every time a monster appears, there is always a place where scenes similar to this case appear.

It would be a bit too much to say that these monsters are wantonly harming mortals.

It only appears a few times every hundred years or so, killing some mortals. Even at its peak, it would only appear a few hundred people.

From this perspective, the death of such a small number of mortals will have almost no impact on the billions of mortals in this world.

So it seems that these monsters must have a purpose for doing this.

As long as these monsters have a purpose, it will be much easier to find them.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Yuxiu had already learned all the information about the people who had died in Nancheng in recent days.

At this time Xu Yuxiu also realized that almost all of the people killed by the monster were women, with only one man among them.

The death toll has reached twenty-nine.

However, Xu Yuxiu soon discovered that although the man's death was very similar to that of those women, there was no trace of evil spirit on his body.

This is a bit strange.

So, Xu Yuxiu went directly to where the body of the murdered man was.

Somewhere in the south city, there were corpses left. This was where the bodies of the twenty-nine people who were killed were placed.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.

However, the place where the corpse was left seemed extremely cold.

As a gust of cold wind blew up out of nowhere, Xu Yuxiu's figure appeared here.

Even at this moment, there are still people where the corpses are left.

But they could not see Xu Yuxiu's existence. As soon as Xu Yuxiu thought about it, she used magic to split the place where the corpses were placed into two spaces.

Only then did she begin to check the bodies.

The first thing Xu Yuxiu saw was the man's body.

She just glanced at the white cloth covering the man's body, and the white cloth floated up on its own, revealing the man's body that had turned into a mummy.

After some observation, Xu Yuxiu was certain that the man's body was not killed by a demon, but had been dead for too long and had been processed in a special way, which turned him into a mummy.

She then looked through the Book of Life and Death and determined the man's cause of death.

According to the Book of Life and Death, the man had died several years ago and his soul had been taken away long ago, so he was not included in her mission to take his soul away this time.

In this way, it can be directly excluded.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Yuxiu began to check the bodies of the women who were killed by the monster.

There was still some demonic aura remaining on the bodies of these women. Although it was very faint, it could not escape her eyes.

On this occasion.

Xu Yuxiu raised her hand, and the evil spirit that remained on the corpse was drawn out like peeling off a cocoon.

The evil spirit that was extracted transformed into phantoms as it floated in the air.

There are tiger-like figures, pointed-headed bird-beak figures, green-skinned fish-head figures, round-bodied wasp-waists, and tall bull-like heads.
These are the forms of those monsters.

They did look intimidating, but Xu Yuxiu could see that these monsters were very weak and pitiful.

They are just some monsters at the Qi training level, and there is not a single one at the foundation building level.

Even such a weak monster was difficult to detect unless she used the Book of Life and Death.

It seems that sometimes, when one is weak to a certain extent, one can really hide oneself very well.

However, since we have captured these monsters and left behind the demonic aura after killing people ourselves, it will not be difficult to find these monsters.

As Xu Yuxiu thought about it, the place where the corpse was left returned to its original appearance.

The corpses she had examined, after everything was restored to their original state, looked as if they had not been moved at all and were still in their original state.

It’s just that Xu Yuxiu had extracted all the evil spirits from these corpses.

Without the evil spirit, these mummies won’t last long.

Xu Yuxiu left here quietly without disturbing anyone.

In the middle of the night.

In a dark alley, a heavily made-up woman, looking drunk, was staggering in the dark alley.

But just as the woman reached a dark corner in the alley, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew up.

In the evil wind, a huge bull's head poked out from the wind.

The heavily made-up woman screamed in fear when she saw the huge bull's head.

But her scream was drowned out by the evil wind and could not be heard any further.

And at this moment, the huge bull head that emerged from the evil wind opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a cloud of black smoke.

Then the smoke that was sprayed out turned into wisps and was about to drill into the eyes, ears, mouth and nose of the heavily made-up woman.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the woman.

When the smoke just touched the figure a few inches away, it suddenly dissipated and disappeared.

This sudden change made the bull's head that emerged from the evil wind open its huge eyes wide.

"Who are you to ruin your Grandpa Niu's good deeds!"

The figure that suddenly appeared was none other than Xu Yuxiu.

When she heard the words uttered by the bull-headed man, she raised her eyes slightly and glanced at the bull-headed man.

"Niu Er, your time has come!"
