From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 464: Ailao Mystery

Although the Gu spiders are scary, a kind of transparent and thin Gu silk will be produced in the brains of the zombies controlled by them.

This material is extremely special and is a rare spiritual material in China that can be used to refine spiritual tools. On the official purchasing platform of the Taoist Alliance, the purchase price is calculated by millimeter, which is a hundred times that of gold.

That's why Wang Xianghong was so happy and excited when he found signs of the herd of beasts controlled by the poisonous spider. After practicing for a long time, everything will cost money, right?

Yumen Taoist Temple is only the lowest among the thirty-six Taoist temples, and the treatment of teachers is average. Wang Xianghong has 108 acupoints in his body, but he has nurtured 23 acupoints from the throat to the coccyx. In addition to qualifications, a lot of resources are needed to nurture each acupoint. He took the initiative to apply to come to Ailao Mountain to explore the poisonous spiders, and he also intended to get something for free.

Wang Xianghong, along with the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple and Wu Shima's tribesmen, a group of more than ten people, stepped carefully on the piles of rotten leaves on the ground and moved forward.

"Chief, the demonic energy ahead seems a bit, too strong?"

Fifteen-year-old Wu Zaduo picked up a withered leaf from the ground, passed it in front of her delicate nose, and frowned slightly.

Wu Zaduo is young and inexperienced in worldly affairs, but his talent in witchcraft is obvious to all. His sudden voice immediately alerted others.

Wu Shima took the leaf from Wu Zaduo's hand, passed it in front of her nose, and nodded:
"There is more than one kind of animal scent."

Wang Xianghong stopped immediately after hearing this: "Can you tell how strong it is?"

Wu Zaduo tilted her head and said, "The strength of the zombie beast controlled by the Gu spider depends on the type of beast. There are not many fierce beasts like tigers and cheetahs in the Ailao Mountains. The combat power of ordinary elks and mountain monkeys is about the same as that of a normal adult male."

Wu Shima also nodded: "The most powerful zombie beast our village has ever encountered was a giant python. It took two or three spiritual awakening masters in the tribe to subdue it together."

After listening to Wu Shima's story, Wang Xianghong felt relieved.

As long as there are no innate zombie beasts appearing, we can handle it with the strength of our group.

"Keep moving forward. Even if we don't do anything, we can at least record the migration routes of these zombie beasts. It's not like we've come to the mountains in vain."

The Ailao Mountains are foggy and rainy, which is also related to its dense rivers and pools. The entire mountain range has many tributaries such as the Lixian River, Tengtiao River, and Nanxi River. The main tributaries are arranged in parallel in the upper section, and the lower section has a tree-like water system structure.

There are more water bodies and the evaporation rate of water vapor is high, so the whole mountain forest is covered with fog and even the sunlight cannot shine through.

After walking for several hundred meters, Wu Shima suddenly signaled everyone to be quiet, and then pointed in a direction to Wang Xianghong.

It was a shallow beach of the Nanxi River. The water was gurgling, clear, and cold. A small silver-gray monkey with white eyes was gnawing on something on the beach.

"Indochinese gray langur! It's a first-class national protected animal."

After saying this, Wu Shima sighed softly: "But now it's a zombie beast."

This Indochinese gray leaf monkey is about the height of a human child. It looks adorable, but its eyes are dark, as if covered by a layer of gray cloth.

Gray film in the eyes is one of the characteristics of zombie beasts.

Their village depends on the mountain for its livelihood, and all the tribesmen rely on Ailao Mountain for their living. The poisonous spiders have messed up the ecological environment of the entire Ailao Mountain, endangering the survival of their village, and even the materials for the ordinary refining of poisonous insects are gone.

That is why Wu Shima was so active in leading her tribe to cooperate with Wang Xianghong in exploring information about the Gu spider.

"Finally I met one!" Wang Xianghong rubbed his hands together, pushed aside the bushes and carefully moved towards the river beach.

In the past, you were a national first-class protected animal, and I didn't dare to touch you, but now... hehehe
Under the command of Wang Xianghong, a group of more than a dozen people spread out and formed a circle, slowly moving towards the river beach.

The Indochinese gray langur seemed unaware of the approach of humans and was still chewing something on the river bank.

Wuzaduo got closer and saw a small Indochinese gray leaf monkey squatting on a moss-covered rock by the riverbank like a child. In the forest where the morning mist had not yet dissipated, its silver-gray fur was still stained with dew, and even its hind paws were pink flesh-colored.

At the tender age of fifteen, Wu Zaduo could not help but feel pity for this cute little animal. She could not help but sigh.

"What a cute little monkey."

Ode!
"Squeak!"

Just as Wu Zaduo finished speaking, the little monkey squatting on the rocks on the river bank suddenly raised his head.

What it was holding with its front paws was actually half of the body of a small monkey of its own kind, with flesh, blood, and internal organs blurred into one.

This Indochinese gray langur is eating its own kind!

This horrifying scene immediately made Wu Zaduo stunned for a moment.

Then, a gray figure suddenly rushed towards him from the rock.

“Zhaduo, get out of the way!” Before she could come to her senses, the tribe leader Wu Shima pushed her away. Blood immediately gushed out on her arm, where a cut was made by the monkey’s claws.

"Yumen Daoist Academy disciples, fuck him!"

Wang Xianghong roared and threw a piece of talisman paper over without hesitation.

Produced by Yumen Taoist Temple, Jade Purity Small Thunder Talisman.

Boom! A bolt of lightning as thick as an arm appeared out of nowhere and struck the monkey's fur.

The air was immediately filled with the stench of burnt protein.

However, the little monkey's thick skin and flesh were far beyond Wang Shuhuan's imagination. The thunder talisman seemed to have aroused the little monkey's ferocity. It opened its bloody mouth with a squeaking sound and bit towards Wang Xianghong like a ghost.

Wang Xianghong dodged in time, lowered his body and rolled into the river in a panic.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After swallowing two mouthfuls of river water in a panic, Wang Xianghong pointed at the little monkey with gritted teeth: "What are you all standing there for? Go and kill it!"

For a moment, the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple were in a panic and threw all kinds of treasures at the little monkey.

At this time, Wu Shima and Wu Zaduo finally recovered and joined the battle.

Wu Shima danced gracefully, shaking the silver ornaments in her hands, while Wu Zhaduo shook the peacock tail feathers around her waist at the little monkey, her pupils shining.

The Yunnan Gu tribe is ancient and mysterious, and even Wang Xianghong cannot fully understand their magical powers.

However, the effect was significant. With the assistance of Wu Shima and Wu Zaduo, after fighting for a few more minutes, the monkey was finally beheaded with a sword.

Even after its head was chopped off, the headless body of the Indochinese gray langur was still as ferocious as ever. It staggered towards the crowd and then fell down by the river.

When they cleaned up the battle area, they found that half of the dozen or so people in the team were injured.

"What a powerful monkey!"

Wang Xianghong climbed out of the river, water still dripping from his body.
He cut open the monkey's skull with a sword and rummaged around in the monkey's brain without any disgust. After a while, Wang Xianghong first killed a small spider that wanted to escape, and then pulled out a white thread as thick as a hair from a pile of unknown substances.

This thread of Gu is actually more than ten centimeters long.

Wang Xianghong was surprised: "No wonder this monkey is so difficult to deal with. The zombie beasts captured by the Taoist Alliance only had two or three centimeters of Gu silk, but this one is ten centimeters long."

At this moment, the leaves in the forest on the nearby cliff suddenly rustled, as if the wind was blowing the forest in disorder and hundreds of ghosts were lurking around.

"Something's wrong, something very wrong."

Wu Shima looked at the forest on the other side and frowned.

"What's wrong?" After washing the Gu silk in the river water and putting it in a brocade box, Wang Xianghong stood beside Wu Shima and looked in the direction she raised her head.

Wu Shima looked at the mountain wall with a solemn expression.
"We seem to have missed a piece of information. The Indochinese gray langur is a social animal!"

"Ok?"

Wu Zaduo was helping several Taoist disciples clean their wounds when suddenly the green peacock feather around his waist exploded and he stood up with a swish.

Wu Zaduo waved the peacock feather in the wind and his expression suddenly changed.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!" "Chief, something is coming towards us, and there are a lot of them!"

In fact, there was no need for Wu Zaduo to remind them. The noise in the forest ahead was getting louder and louder, and closer and closer. It was so dark that it seemed as if thousands of troops were passing through the forest.

"Fuck! Are we poking at the monkey's nest?"

Wang Xianghong's face changed drastically. Not to mention that the monkey he just dealt with was just as powerful as the one he had just dealt with. If that monkey was placed in the human society, it would definitely have the strength of an awakened spirit. Even if it was just a hundred or so ordinary zombie monkeys under control, if they rushed down like this, the group would probably be wiped out.

"Run, run separately, run into the forest!"

Wu Shima was experienced and quickly called on the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple to flee.

However, it was too late.

The noise in the forest on the cliff became louder and louder, like thunder, and the whole mountain was shaking. The next moment,
"boom!"

"Squeak!"

"Fizz!"

Not only the Indochinese gray langurs, but also the western black-crested gibbons, forest musk deer, black bears, macaques and Chinese serows, all kinds of animals with gray eyes, rushed down from the mountains and forests to the river beach in an overwhelming manner.

All kinds of ferocious beasts and rare birds appeared like a tide. Wang Xianghong's face changed drastically, and he had no time to react. He hurriedly picked up all the talismans he had accumulated over the years in his hands.

A grizzly bear as tall as two people pounced on him. Wang Xianghong could even smell the foul stench from the black bear's mouth.
He threw the talisman in his hand randomly, but was unable to stop the momentum at all.

My life is over!

This was the last thought in Wang Xianghong’s mind.

However, the expected thing did not happen.

The black bear actually jumped right past him, as if it was annoyed at being blocked in the way, and with one paw it slapped Wang Xianghong straight into the river!
"All disciples, hide in the river!"

At Wu Shima's reminder, more than a dozen disciples jumped into the river like dumplings.

"what's the situation?"

"Why don't these zombie beasts hurt us?"

"They don't look like they're looking for food. They're running away!"

Wolves howled, bears roared, monkeys cried, snakes hissed, all kinds of creatures came down the mountain at the same time as in a zoo, and then fled along the river as if there was some ferocious beast behind them.

Just like encountering natural enemies in nature, these animals just ran away and didn't even dare to look back.

Wu Shima's entire body was soaked in the river water, with an expression of shock on her face: "Black bears and clouded leopards, these zombie beasts controlled by Gu spiders are extremely powerful, how could they run away and be afraid?"

At this time, Wang Xianghong and others did not dare to go out to the river at all, and no one dared to face the torrent of wild beasts head-on.

However, they soon found out what these animals were afraid of.

Above the forest, a young man in a blue and white Taoist robe was walking down the treetops as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden. His pupils seemed to be flashing with lightning, and he had a sword on his back. He had an indescribable immortal demeanor, ethereal and otherworldly.

Wherever he went, lightning flashed from his palms and shot towards the herd of zombies fleeing in panic below.

Those extremely ferocious black bears and clouded leopards fell to the ground with a bang as if the pause button was pressed after being hit by the lightning. And because they were still running, they continued to roll forward, raising billowing dust.

"Fuck, this is cheating!"

Wu Zaduo raised her head curiously: "Chief, is this a congenital master?"

"No, it's not innate. This is not the release of spiritual energy. During the awakening stage, an extremely precious black thunder was refined in the body, which can be transformed into qi and released to kill the enemy!"

After all, Wu Shima was knowledgeable and experienced, and she explained the reason in one sentence.

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Yumen Taoist Academy nearby took a deep breath.

A group of more than a dozen people were already in such a mess when dealing with a monkey, and the one who treated the zombies, black bears and clouded leopards as miscellaneous soldiers was actually just Qi Ling?

"How strong must this guy's body be to be able to refine black lightning in the mortal stage?"

The young man was seen moving forward, and all kinds of ferocious beasts that were fleeing along the way fell down in unison like rice being harvested. Soon he passed the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple.

"Let's go and see,"

Unable to see the young man's face clearly, Wang Xianghong gritted his teeth and led the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple to follow the direction where the beast was lying.

The further we went, the stronger the smell of blood became. The corpses of various beasts were piled on the ground, which looked extremely creepy.

"Damn, with these protected animal identities, if it were in the past, this person would probably have to spend his whole life in jail."

Wang Xianghong was full of wild thoughts and became even more curious about the identity of the mysterious master.

Gradually, the number of wild beasts piled up increased, and finally when they reached the lower reaches of the Nanxi River, they heard human voices.

The sound gradually got closer, and it turned out to be a man and a woman standing on a mountain of wild animal corpses and talking. It was mostly the woman who was talking. Wang Xianghong listened carefully and finally heard it clearly.

"So, you're blaming me for helping you deal with these zombie beasts without your permission?"

"It is indeed feasible for you to drive these zombie beasts to the river, but have you ever thought that there is a village downstream of the river? The water and wood double thunders you have refined are limited after all, so how can you use them all the time? I will help you close the door and beat the dog, and catch the turtle in the jar, and you won't thank me?"

"What? Are you worried that I'll take a share of your Gu silk? Hahaha, you're right to be worried, but I don't want you to take too much. We'll split these Gu silks 30% to 70%, 30% for me and 70% for you."

The man remained silent. From the perspectives of Wang Xianghong and Wu Shima, they could only see his back.
Somehow, Wang Xianghong suddenly felt that the figure looked familiar.

"Yang Jiaqi, thank you."

Not wanting to ask the girl why she was there, the boy thanked her, turned around, and walked towards Wang Xianghong and his group who were hiding in the riverbed.

All the disciples of Yumen Taoist Temple suddenly felt goose bumps all over their bodies.
This man found them!
They were eavesdropping, which was very immoral, especially for such a perverted and powerful person. In the wild mountains and forests, what if this man was moody...

Just as Wang Xianghong was preparing to explain, a familiar voice suddenly came from the boy.

"Cousin, I haven't seen you for a few years. I didn't expect you to come to Ailao Mountain."

Ok?
Wang Xianghong raised his head in confusion and finally saw the face of this mysterious man.

Compared with the mysterious and elegant back, the man's front is indeed a bit sloppy, with ordinary facial features, a bit unkempt and untidy beard, as if he hasn't taken care of it for a long time.
"What? You don't recognize me?" The man smiled heartily, patted the confused Wang Xianghong on the shoulder, and then rolled up the messy hair that covered his eyebrows and forehead.

Wang Xianghong's pupils suddenly contracted violently: "Wang... Wang Shuhuan!! Cousin!"

"You, why are you here!"
-
Night, Ailao Mountain, the beach north of Nanxi River.

It took the people at Yumen Taoist Temple a long time to accept that this horrifying, perverted warrior who killed zombies as easily as killing chickens was actually the cousin of their own instructor, Fat-Headed and Big-Eared King.

They have always heard Wang Xianghong say that he has a genius cousin who is studying in Baiyun Taoist Academy. He was from Class A of Chunyang and when he was nineteen years old, he went to the southeast coast alone and picked the inner elixirs of more than a dozen monsters.

But they all thought that Wang Xianghong was bragging before!
A group of Yumen Taoist disciples were cleaning up the carcasses of wild animals. They wanted to cut some of them into good pieces, such as golden pheasant and elk, and pluck and grill them for dinner.

When parasitized by a poisonous spider, only the head is poisonous and cannot be eaten. The rest is still normal flesh and blood, but the taste will be a bit fishy.

In addition, they couldn't help but look in the direction of Wang Xianghong and the man named Wang Shuhuan.

The master named Yang Jiaqi also joined the two of them.
