Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

Chapter 64 Damn it! Damn it!

"What the hell?"

Ning Yan rubbed it hard, and the skin on the back of his hand was almost broken, but the mark was still intact.

"Bah! Bah!"

He spat a few times and rubbed his hands hard. The blood on his hands was almost wiped off, and the dark red mark in the middle became more prominent.

"Do we have to fight poison with poison?"

Ning Yan squatted down, got some blood from Zhou Shengcai's wound, and rubbed the mark hard, but it still didn't come off. Instead, his entire hand was stained bloody red, which looked extremely creepy.

He grabbed the dark mud on the ground and washed it back and forth, barely washing away the blood on his hands. At this point, he had a rough idea of ​​the details of the dark red mark.

This thing looks like it is made of blood, but in fact it is more like a breath, an illusion, and does not have any physical characteristics. It is a virtual substance that can be seen but not touched.

curse?

brand?

God knows what this thing is?
Ning Yan quickly stripped Zhou Shengcai naked, even his underwear, trying to find a way to crack the code.

As a result, the kid had nothing on him except a set of inner armor, a few bottles of medicine and a dozen gold beans.

There weren't even any secret manuals or hidden weapons used to fire projectiles!

By the way, he came here to find a solution.

Ning Yan searched carefully again, even catching a few Earth-Element Sawtooth Worms, and tried the bottles of medicine, but still had no clue.

"Really? He's already dead, but you still blame him for causing trouble for others."

He kicked Zhou Shengcai's body and turned him over with his penis facing up.

"Forget it, let's be generous and not bother with the dead."

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps nearby.

A person at the peak of Qi Gathering hurried over with Chen Hongyuan and others.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ning Yan was safe and sound.

Everyone was shocked to see Zhou Shengcai die suddenly.

"What, what's going on?"

Chen Hongyuan asked in surprise.

"Oh, nothing. I killed him by surprise attack."

Ning Yan replied unhappily.

Everyone looked at the wound on Zhou Shengcai's neck and looked at each other in surprise.

You call this a sneak attack?

Ning Yan seemed to be aware of everyone's doubts and said calmly:
"A frontal attack is still a sneak attack."

He still had a clear understanding of his own strength. If he had not deduced the strengthened [Bone-Splitting Claw], even if Zhou Shengcai was hit by [Rather Die than Be Honour], he would not be killed so easily. Warriors have always had extremely tenacious vitality, and in the end they would most likely die together.

"It seems that I am still a little bit away from the peak of true Qi Gathering. I have to hurry up and continue to deduce the skills."

Chen Hongyuan looked at Zhou Shengcai's body and said with a sigh:

"I never thought that after competing with me for so many years, it would end like this."

"Come here, dig a grave for him outside and bury him properly."

Seeing Zhou Shengcai's body being carried away, Ning Yan found Chen Hongyuan and asked about the dark red mark on his hand.

After learning about the situation of the mark, Chen Hongyuan frowned immediately:
"It sounds a bit like some kind of curse."

"If it is a curse, did the same curse appear after the Zhou family's ancestor was killed?"

Ning Yan asked. "That's not the case."

Chen Hongyuan said honestly:

"My ancestor was injured mainly because of the battle, and it has nothing to do with the curse."

"According to what I have learned, curses usually require certain conditions to be cast. Some of these conditions are extremely harsh and may even be related to one's own bloodline or even the weirdness of the outside world. I'm afraid the curse on Zhou Shengcai is also the same."

He observed it carefully again and continued:
"I estimate that this curse should not be too strong. Generally speaking, the stronger the curse, the greater the consumption. Zhou Shengcai is dying, and in the final analysis, he is just at the peak of Qi Gathering.

If the power of this curse is really terrifying, it should have been used to deal with the violent anger. If it is not enough to deal with the violent anger, it is not too dangerous. "

“Moreover, this curse doesn’t seem to have any real harmful effects, and it hasn’t caused you any negative effects yet.

It looks more like a mark that attracts some monster to attack you. Maybe if you go back to the city and hide for a while, it will naturally disappear. "

Ning Yan nodded.

Afterwards, Chen Hongyuan took him to consult several elders of the Chen family, and Su He and others from Weiwuyuan also helped provide some reference opinions.

Everyone agreed that this curse should be some kind of mark that attracts monsters or strange things, and it would be best to return to the city in time and hide for a while.

The city is protected by the Suppressing Stone, and it is difficult for strange creatures to invade. The Zhou family's beast farm is already outside the boundary, and it may be attacked by strange creatures if things go wrong.

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, everyone did not delay any longer and immediately started harvesting the Earth Element Sawtooth Worms, preparing to finish the job and return as soon as possible.

In addition to the local sawtooth worms, many precious medicinal herbs are also planted near this insect forest, such as the rotten bone flower, the thousand-gold vine, the illusion heart grass, etc.

With trade routes blocked, the prices of these already very precious medicinal materials will inevitably increase further.

This is also a considerable profit.

Ning Yan also occupied a corresponding share in it.

In addition, he finally got the Forgiveness Grass he had longed for. Chen Hongyuan waved his hand and gave him all forty-two plants.

It takes three stalks of Forgiveness Grass to practice a set of skills together, and forty-two stalks means fourteen chances. Although Ning Yan felt that he would succeed in one try, he still accepted all forty-two stalks to prevent any accidents.

Afterwards, he also joined the team that was frantically collecting the local sawtooth insects, trying to finish the collection and return as soon as possible.

……

Somewhere that stinks.

Wen Botao led a group of injured and dusty disciples from the Weiwu Academy, trying their best to make their way through the piles of manure.

No one had ever imagined that they would fly over the fog and finally land in the feces pool of the mist kites. God knows how long it would take to pile up so much feces?
Not only do they have to be careful when walking through it, but they also have to avoid the mist kites that come here from time to time.

Finally, they saw a mist tinged with a faint red hue, and the warriors from the Weiwu Academy almost shed tears on the spot.

But before they could cheer, the ground suddenly shook and a mountain of manure collapsed in front of them, splashing all over everyone. But there was no time to worry about these things, and everyone looked at a huge beast that suddenly crawled out of the ground not far away.

It looked like an enlarged version of a fog kite, the difference being that it was five meters tall, had a black tumor on its forehead, and its entire body was covered with strange dark red runes.

"This is... Li Yuan?!"

"A long-dead Li Yuan?!"

"Why would the Zhou family hide such a thing?!"

Wen Botao was both shocked and angry. He could tell at a glance that Li Yuan had been dead for a long time, and it was very likely that he had been refined into some strange creature and tied here with dark copper chains.

"Why did you come out at this time?!"

“Damn it! Damn it!!”

Watching the bronze chains gradually slip off, Wen Botao shouted loudly:
"All disciples, follow me and tie this chain again. We must not let it escape, otherwise we will all die!"

The group of warriors roared and rushed forward, desperately pulling at the huge bronze chain, exhausting all their strength, determined to suppress it again...
