Exclusive sister card, unlimited evolution

A large amount of power of faith flowed through the underground energy veins and into the ravine outside the village.

Picking up Daisy, Lu Yan quietly left the Fortune Village and followed her instructions to the place where incense was gathered. On the way, he also saw some servants transporting something full of blood.

A servant secretly took out a piece from the wooden barrel. He saw accurately that it was a piece of flesh and blood that was wriggling violently and contained abundant vitality.

The servant obviously remained rational. Although he wanted to eat it right away, he still quietly wrapped it up, probably intending to take it back and cook it before eating.

The mastermind behind the scenes had no intention of polluting the souls of the villagers or merchants, but resorted to deception, naturally for the sake of their purest incense faith.

After describing what he saw to Yingying, the local little fox thought for a moment and cried out: "Ah, I know -"

"It must be [Rou Tai Sui]!"

Chapter 393: Meat Tai Sui.

Tai Sui can be called many things in this world, but it is definitely not the plastic product in a program in Lu Yan’s previous life.

The stars in the sky can be called "Tai Sui", the gods in heaven can be called "Tai Sui", and Ganoderma lucidum can be called "Tai Sui"...

Among them, Rou Tai Sui specifically refers to a monster that is neither fungus nor plant, and is always moving. It was born from fungus-related supplements such as Ganoderma lucidum and Cordyceps sinensis.

As a fungus that completely eats other fungi and the dead bodies of plants and animals that serve as containers, it will begin to devour the surrounding flowers, plants and trees as its own nutrition, turning them into pure life force.

The first stage is to make the body as big as possible. At this stage, the meat Tai Sui is very weak. Everyone from sparrows to brown bears will take it as a tonic. It does not have enough wisdom and has the name of a monster but not the reality.

As it gradually grows up, the intelligence of the Rou Tai Sui will also increase. From only being able to absorb nutrients from flowers, trees and the earth, it will become able to prey on insects, and then small birds and frogs.

When it grows to about half a meter in size and successfully eats wolf cubs or other intelligent creatures, it will also have the wisdom of a wild beast and begin to enter the second stage.

The second stage is that the size and intelligence grow together, gradually becoming similar to normal monsters and demons, with intelligence equal to that of humans.

In the third stage, differences arise. Just like the name "Tai Sui", Rou Tai Sui is changeable.

Some focus on their size and ignore their wisdom, and eventually turn into monsters as tall as mountains, trying to devour everything, but are destroyed by powerful beings and turned into supplements.

Some focused on wisdom and stabilizing their bodies, transforming into normal monsters with excellent talents. They hid among all races by using the special features of their flesh and blood, looking for the path to cultivation.

Well, all the former were destroyed, and some of the latter turned to good and became the "Taisui Star Lord" in heaven, while others turned to evil and became powerful demons.

"This Tai Sui plans to collect incense and life force at the same time? It's quite ambitious, but it's a pity that it met me before it grew up. By the way, is it delicious?"

Lu Yan praised it with his mouth, but he was actually concerned about whether it tasted good or not.

"It should be delicious, like mushroom or meat? Hericium erinaceus?"

Yingying is also a foodie, and she is imagining the taste of Tai Sui meat.

When they arrived near the deep mountains, Lu Yan frowned, and his originally relaxed expression became a little serious. A small hill with a diameter of nearly a thousand meters was full of violent vitality.

The life of this entire mountain depends on Tai Sui, which means that Tai Sui's body is probably at least half the size of a mountain.

He landed and let go of Daisy. The girl left the guiding state and flipped through the spell book to hide everyone. Lu Yan felt a little unsafe, so he called out Lilia and asked her to cast [Lilia's Advanced Invisibility Spell].

After hiding everyone, Daisy found the artificially hidden cave entrance, and everyone quietly entered. At first, the cave was damp, normal, and clean.

That's right, damp and clean go together. There is no moss, no mold, no bats or lizards in the cave. There are no animals or plants to be seen, just stones and soil.

After about 500 meters, a problem arose. The stone became soft and blood appeared on the wall and the ground. Daisy quietly used the [Levitation Technique] to make everyone float up and continue moving inside.

The blood naturally turned into pieces of flesh as it moved forward, and the flesh and blood bulged, emitting an alluring fragrance.

Lu Yan held the Bodhi Sword, ready to slay the demons at any moment, but Daisy raised her hand to stop him, signaling everyone to retreat. After leaving the cave, she said:

"This is just its 'meat storehouse', the soul is not here.

The extremely vigilant Tai Sui used some unknown method to split himself into two. He placed one part of his body in a cave and used the trees on the entire mountain to photosynthesize and provide himself with nutrients.

Then the souls and another part of the body in the village receive incense and faith as gods.

The two work together. On the surface, the landlords are mobilized to transport blood and flesh to the villagers and passers-by. Underground, the earth veins are used to transmit incense to the warehouse as a reserve for use at any time.

If Daisy wasn't special enough, it's unlikely anyone would have noticed her behavior.

If the village's [Shencai Gong] is discovered, even if he is defeated, there is a high probability that he will be able to escape. As for the discovery of the Tai Sui Meat Mountain outside the city, Shencai Gong may be able to pretend to be a victim and solve the identity problem together with the Earth God.

As for if both are discovered, it can still use the lives of the entire village and the land god as a threat. If it cannot be killed instantly or its connection with external life force cannot be cut off, many people will die.

"awesome."

Lu Yan praised again, raised his hand and threw Fengxi and Lamia out, leaving them here ready to destroy the entire life bank at any time. He, Daisy, and Lilia went to the village.

"Do you have any way to deal with it threatening the villagers?"

When faced with a problem, Lu Yan naturally consulted the girls first. The two girls shook their heads to indicate that they had no solution. He was not in a hurry and reached into the demiplane:

"Let me see if there's a response card."

Lu Yan has a lot of cards. He searched for all the card information in his mind and instantly locked onto three cards.

Silver 6-star card [Draw a Prison on the Ground]. The card player who uses it can consume energy to draw a circle, and the circle will turn into a cylindrical cage.

As long as the card master is not dead and the energy supply is not cut off, everything in the cage will not be affected by the outside world.

This is to prevent Tai Sui from actively triggering alien life force. If the connection is disconnected, the alien life force in the people will still move. He has another card.

Silver 1-star [Life Devourer Swarm], sounds very impressive, but it is actually a vampire bat about the size of a palm, which can selectively extract vitality. The introduction also says that it can be used to extract blood clots and poisonous blood in the original world.

Therefore, it has another name, the poison avoider.

The Devourer "group" consists of about a dozen vampire bats, which should be able to selectively extract most of the alien life force mixed in the villagers' bodies.

Of course, if there is still vitality that cannot be separated, he can only use the final means.

This is possible. After all, the villagers have lived with the meat Tai Sui for so long that the blood in their bodies may not be their own, but Tai Sui's.

In this situation, Lu Yan could only use bloodletting therapy. The Devourer completely devoured the villagers' vitality, and then he used the silver 2-star skill [Vitality Distribution] to share some of his vitality with them.

With triple insurance, Lu Yan felt that he had done his best, and it would be none of his business if anyone else died.

In order to ensure that there would be no such thing as ingratitude, and to avoid the eyes and ears of Rou Tai Sui, he planned to carry out all his actions secretly at night without telling anyone.

The abacus clanged loudly, Lu Yan glanced at the sky, and waited for midnight to fall.

Chapter 394: Human body and demon body.

Midnight arrived and almost all creatures had gone to sleep. Daisy felt that it was time to act. She raised her hand and unfolded the sleeping field, allowing her power to radiate throughout the village.

All living things fell into a deeper sleep, and the villagers or travelers in the Fortune Village suddenly straightened up, opened their eyes slightly, stood up from the bed with white eyes, and staggered to open the door and walk towards the open space in the village.

Everyone was doing the same, gathering in an orderly manner. Lu Yan observed the peaceful land temple and wild sacrificial altar not far away, raised his hand and released the group of vampire bats.

First, the vitality in the passengers' bodies was selectively sucked out. Things went smoothly. The violent vitality had not yet merged with them and was directly extracted. The outsiders did not suffer much harm.

After extracting the energy from the passengers, Bat started to attack the villagers. He grabbed someone and probed his mental power into the villager's body, but he was not very satisfied with the result.

As expected, due to the long-term consumption of Tai Sui's flesh, local people have become the "incarnations" of the meat Tai Sui without knowing it. Even the vitality they regain by eating grains belongs to Tai Sui.

It is similar to the Ship of Theseus, but the hull is not replaced with ordinary wood like in the story, but with living wood that is controlled by others, so it is no longer your own.

The villagers should have died long ago. The only ones left here are flesh-and-blood puppets that are highly concealed, have souls, and are unaware that they are dead.

Unless one's body is reshaped using their soul as a template, it will be impossible to escape Tai Sui's control.

Symbolically using [Life Force Distribution], Lu Yan extracted part of his own vitality and flowed it into their bodies. As expected, pure vitality without will entered the human body, but what came out was Rou Tai Sui's vitality.

There's no hope. Even during a prosperous dynasty, some demons and monsters are hard to guard against.

After just one look, Lu Yan indifferently stopped trying to rescue them, and Daisy stopped controlling them, letting the living people fall to the ground, still in their final sleep.

A trace of pity flashed in Yingying's eyes. She turned her head away while reciting Buddhist scriptures silently. Those cured passengers entered the designed "prison" and could neither enter nor leave.

After completing the rescue operation and carefully searching the souls in the area, Daisy pointed to the land temple. It turned out that Tai Sui had hidden his "soul" in the land god's temple, and concealed his existence with the scent of his incense.

Lu Yan raised his hand and pointed in that direction. Suddenly, fire crows flew from his fingertips, circling and compressing into dazzling spots of light. The Rou Tai Sui in the land temple seemed to have intuitively discovered that something was wrong. The danger was making it wake up quickly from its slumber.

But it was too late. The compressed crow flame suddenly blasted out as he released it, like a beam of light from the sun!

No one could control the incense to defend themselves, and the entire land temple turned into ashes in just three seconds. A strange scream sounded from the temple, and the black smoke that looked like a hideous monster gradually dissipated under the explosion of crow flames.

It was the trapped Earth God. The cage statue reinforced by Rou Tai Sui helped him block the first wave of attacks. Before being hit by Crow Flame, he escaped by calculating the time and mobilizing the incense, successfully shrinking into the soil and escaping from the attack range by burrowing into the earth.

An ethereal soul emerged from the ground beside Lu Yan. He glanced tremblingly at the female Yama King from the foreign land floating in the air, lowered his head and said, "Thank you Taihu Divine Envoy for saving me from this predicament."

"It doesn't matter. The village is going to be destroyed, and you probably won't live long if you don't have any other options."

Lu Yan sensed the energy field and the situation was not optimistic.

Rou Tai Sui's soul was instantly annihilated by him, and its vitality lost control. Instead of dissipating on its own, it still gathered together due to the energy condensation effect and entered a state of rampage.

The result is that the village and the hills in the distance are distorted.

Flowers, trees, chickens, ducks, cows, sheep... all living things began to wriggle. Creatures with vocal organs screamed in pain from their bodies, and soon even their heads were out of control.

The ones that changed the fastest were naturally pigs, followed by other creatures. Plants were less infected with vitality and their degree of distortion was smaller. If they could survive, they might be able to change back.

As for the people lying on the ground, they have become living meat blankets like the lucky pigs and are now in a deep sleep. They will know the horror when they wake up, but there should be no such chance.

Like the village, the area on the hill is similar, but is mostly covered with flowers, plants and trees. Animals are less affected because they eat less flesh and blood, while the meat storehouse relies on plants to convert sunlight and obtain vitality.

Staring at the hellish scene, the Earth God looked miserable and told Lu Yan a more real story.

This meat Tai Sui was very smart. When it first came back to the village from the mountains, it was brought back by the landlord. The landlord fed it to the pigs, and then all the subsequent events happened.

Under the silent worship of the landowners, it took more than 20 years to develop quietly. By the time the land god realized something was wrong, the inner part of the statue had been completely contaminated.

Even so, Tai Sui is still very timid, which is why he has managed to survive to this day. If it weren't for Lu Yan, he might have really become a big shot.

"What should we do next?"

The Earth God looked worried. Lu Yan snapped his fingers and said, "Simple."

The fire crow flew out of his hand, avoiding the soul and burning everything. A red light flashed in the distance, and a mountain fire broke out and a column of fire rose. Fengxi solved the entire small meat mountain inside the mountain.

All the life force was broken up, and after losing their original structure, they floated in the air, suspecting that they might gather again. Lu Yan raised his hand to help gather some of the life force.

The vitality that had lost its violent nature immediately rushed over, and under the final inertia, it aggregated and eventually formed a red jelly block about half the size of a pig. If you look closely, you can still see blood vessels and flesh textures inside.

The aroma wafted from the piece of meat. Lu Yan patted the jelly block and put it into the demiplane. At this moment, Lamia also ran over with a piece of meat the size of half a pig.

Obviously this is the last remnant of Rou Tai Sui, all the essence is on it.

Looking at the village after the disaster, Lu Yan felt that he still had something to confiscate. A light bulb went off in his head, and he came to the residual soul of Rou Tai Sui.

The wild altar was shattered to the ground, and the remaining soul was barely holding on without disintegrating. At his signal, Daisy raised her hand to gather the remaining soul, and a flesh-and-blood soul appeared in front of her.

After being repaired, it still maintained a certain degree of consciousness, and there was even a hint of resentment when it looked at Lu Yan. Lu Yan raised his hand and released soul energy, thereby distorting it and turning it into a card.

Skill cards, skill cards, skill cards...

Lu Yan silently recited in his heart, and golden skill cards gathered out.

Chapter 395 Is there a romantic comedy?

Lu Yan extinguished the flames, and the passers-by were safe and sound, but their goods suffered some damage. After handling the entire incident, Lu Yan closed his eyes and activated the [World Illusion], and found that his connection with this world had deepened again.

Solving the problem of meat Tai Sui is a meritorious deed, recognized by the world.

"I'll leave the follow-up matters to you. Don't tell these guys my identity."

"Yes."

The earth god, feeling sympathetic, had tears in his eyes, not knowing whether it was because of the dead village or because he himself might be reprimanded by the heavenly court for neglecting his duties.

The next morning, the passers-by woke up. In their dreams, they heard the God of Land tell them about the situation of the entire Fortune Village. They were a little skeptical at first, but after waking up, they had to believe it.

The righteous monks mixed in with the travelers had no idea what was going on. Their faces turned pale and they immediately called out to their elders. Not long after, people from the town and their sects came one after another, and their faces looked grim when they saw the situation here.

"To make money, to raise a coffin, to raise a coffin."

Some cultivators were inspired and looked at the vague shadow of the Earth God. Several cultivators helped to save his soul and planned to ask for details later.

All the passers-by were also taken away by the government. There was no other way. Fa Cai Village was similar to a "model village". It had not happened for a long time in the Da Kun Dynasty that a model village was completely destroyed in one day. Of course, a careful investigation was required.

Lu Yan was taken to the city with the crowd. Before he entered the cell, he was rescued and invited to another small courtyard where the Earth God and the monks were waiting.

"The Divine Envoy of Taihu Lake."
