Mushroom Man

Peach Blossom Residence.

Xiao Chusheng's mangled corpse instantly appeared and landed in front of Wu Liang.

Wu Liang had already secretly left a mark on the mushroom after refining it, using blood-sucking mosquitoes and flies.

Once the time is right, they can replace the body and retrieve it.

"arrest!"

Upon seeing the corpse, Wu Liang did not hesitate for a moment and activated the Ghost Messenger.

In an instant, he transformed into a ghost messenger, capturing the soul that had not yet drifted out of the corpse.

Fortunately, only a few breaths had passed since Xiao Chusheng's tragic death.

In such a short time, the soul is not yet able to leave the body and thus return to the underworld.

If Wu Liang had any fungi on hand, such as those that could revive the dead or heal the bones, he might even be able to bring them back to life.

Even if Wu Liang had such mushrooms, he would never waste them on Xiao Chusheng.

Wu Liang swapped him over, not to save his life.

He went to great lengths to kill him, all for the sake of the Formless Inheritance he possessed.

It won’t take long…

With the help of the Thousand Souls and the Ghost Messenger Mushroom, Wu Liang easily extracted Xiao Chusheng's soul.

Xiao Chusheng's soul was ethereal and confused.

He did not cultivate the Soul Path, and his soul never grew stronger through the Soul Path fungus.

Therefore, even though Xiao Chusheng was a fourth-level mushroom master, his soul was no different from that of an ordinary person, and was even inferior to Wu De.

Even if Wu De is only a second-level mushroom master, he has still managed to acquire a considerable amount of soul resources in the Blessed Land of Tomb Village.

This is why Wu De was able to maintain consciousness for a few breaths after his death.

Xiao Chusheng, however, did not receive this treatment.

When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out. Upon his death, his soul instantly transforms into a wandering spirit, becoming confused and disoriented.

If Wu Liang hadn't intervened in time, he would probably have soon been on his way to the underworld to be cleansed.

"It's not too late..."

After Wu Liang extracted Xiao Chusheng's soul, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the soul cannot remain outside for long, it will dissipate over time.

In order to preserve the soul and prevent memory loss.

With a thought, Wu Liang temporarily stored the extracted soul in the Soul-Snatching Flea.

After doing all that, his gaze finally fell on the mangled corpse on the ground.

"I hope Xiao Chusheng's mushrooms are still around."

"Logically speaking, I had already subtly influenced his perceptions through the Deception Mushroom before his death."

"If it were useful, Xiao Chusheng probably wouldn't have had the idea of ​​self-destructing mushrooms when he died..."

Wu Liang stroked his chin, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

As everyone knows, when the mushroom master dies, the mushrooms perish.

No mushroom master, even on the verge of death, would ever think of benefiting the enemy.

Therefore, when most mushroom growers are about to die, they will have a single thought that causes the mushrooms to self-destruct.

Thoughts travel at extremely high speeds, making them almost impossible to stop.

Wu Liang was very troubled by this.

He wanted Xiao Chusheng dead, but he also wanted to obtain his inheritance and the mushrooms on his body.

After much deliberation, Wu Liang finally decided to use the Deception Mushroom to secretly influence Xiao Chusheng.

In just two days, he was not only preparing Huang'er, but also subtly influencing Xiao Chusheng.

To prevent Xiao Chusheng from becoming aware of his presence, he didn't even dare to directly distort his perception. Instead, he chose to go along with the man's personality, deepening his desire for life. Xiao Chusheng was extremely arrogant, considering himself the future Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable.

He always believed that he would not end up in a desperate situation.

No matter how dangerous the situation, he believed he could turn misfortune into good fortune.

It was precisely because of this self-centered personality that Xiao Chusheng, under the subtle influence of the Deception Mushroom, did not completely despair even when faced with the tearing and biting of three thousand dragons, and still thought about struggling to survive.

He was waiting for a miracle to happen...

Unfortunately, as it turned out, he was not the future Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable, and without divine assistance, he was unable to turn misfortune into good fortune.

A guy who isn't completely desperate before he dies and still wants to fight back is unlikely to self-destruct his mushroom.

However, all of this is still just Wu Liang's wishful thinking.

Whether Xiao Chusheng actually possessed the self-destructing mushroom remains to be seen.

However, even if Wu Liang didn't get the mushrooms, it wouldn't have much of an impact on him.

After all, he had already obtained this person's soul and could use the River of Oblivion to acquire the formless inheritance he knew.

Even if he loses those mushrooms, he can still find a way to refine them.

"You stay here and guard the house, lest those two old geezers notice anything amiss..."

Wu Liang separated his blood shadow body, released the serrated golden centipede, and gave it a word of instruction.

The Blood Shadow has no intelligence and can only act according to predetermined instructions.

On the contrary, the sawtooth centipede hissed as if it understood the instructions.

Wu Liang nodded slightly, then grabbed Xiao Chusheng's corpse with his bloody hand and cleaned up the traces with the Blood Washing Mushroom.

His purpose in doing so was naturally to prevent the Golden Dragon King from having any means to trace the clues left by Xiao Chusheng and find his way here.

Better safe than sorry; being cautious is never a bad thing.

After doing all this, Wu Liang immediately went into the Demon Suppression Tower, intending to give Xiao Chusheng a good beating.

What he didn't know was...

Almost simultaneously, after Xiao Chusheng disappeared, the Golden Dragon King activated a channel mushroom in an attempt to locate the person who stole the corpse.

However, once Wu Liang entered the Demon Suppression Tower, no matter how the Golden Dragon King searched, he was unable to locate Xiao Chusheng's corpse and had no choice but to give up.

Undoubtedly, Wu Liang's caution saved him from a major disaster.

At this very moment, the Demon Suppression Tower...

Without any delay, Wu Liang brought Xiao Chusheng's soul and body to the banks of the River of Oblivion.

Just hear a "plop" sound!
Wu Liang immediately threw the Soul-Swallowing Flea containing Xiao Chusheng's soul into the River of Oblivion.

Ripples spread across the River of Oblivion...

Under Wu Liang's gaze, fragments of memory were gradually peeled from his soul by the waters of the River of Oblivion.

However, judging from the current state, it seems that it won't be completely washed off anytime soon.

Seeing this, Wu Liang simply focused his attention on Xiao Chusheng's corpse.

He planned to seize the mushrooms by force, starting with taking the mushrooms from the mushrooms on the mushrooms.

After the mushroom master dies, the dantian will be like a rootless duckweed, and will soon collapse and disintegrate.

At that time, even if the mushroom master does not self-destruct the mushroom, the mushroom will be destroyed along with the dantian.

Wu Liang was fully aware of this and knew that time was of the essence, so he dared not delay in the slightest and immediately began to think.

The next moment, the mushroom-grabbing technique was launched!

An invisible hand emerged from Wu Liang's dantian and accurately entered Xiao Chusheng's dantian.

"Forced Mushroom" and "Plundered Mushroom" are used for targets that have lost their resistance, respectively.

Now that Xiao Chusheng is dead, he naturally has no will to resist him.

Now is the perfect time to activate the forced mushroom extraction technique... (End of Chapter)
