Sun Mo and Mei Ziyu followed Zhou Pei, who was the student who reported the news, into the male dormitory.
At this moment, many people were gathered in front of dormitory 308.
"What's going on?"
"I heard that he suddenly fell into a deep sleep."
"Ah? He's already dead? "
"I don't think so?"
The students discussed among themselves.
"Everyone, make way. Teacher Sun is here!"
Zhou Pei called out.
When the students heard this, they immediately straightened their bodies and moved to the two sides of the corridor, opening up a path for Sun Mo.
Right now, Sun Mo was the number one ace of the Central Province Academy, no, it should be said that he was the number one ace of Jinling City. Everyone knew about God Hands. Hence, the students were very respectful toward him.
"Teacher Sun, good afternoon!"
"Hello, Teacher Sun!"
The students all greeted him. This was etiquette.
Sun Mo entered the dormitory and frowned. There was a rotten stench of rotting meat here. It was very pungent, like the stench when he passed by the bushes where stray cats and dogs had died.
However, Sun Mo glanced around. Although the room was the same as most male dormitories, dirty and messy with socks and unwashed clothes everywhere, there wasn't anything rotten.
In this era, food wasn't very abundant. In addition, the Central Province Academy's rules required students to be diligent and thrifty. Hence, there wouldn't be such a thing as leftover food going bad.
Also, Sun Mo noticed that other than some panic on the others' faces, they didn't feel any disgust. This meant that they couldn't smell this stench.
"Teacher Sun, be careful. The situation doesn't seem right."
Mei Ziyu reminded. She didn't smell it, but she could sense an aura that made her feel uncomfortable.
This was because she wasn't a spirit controller.
"Mn!"
Sun Mo walked to the side of the bed. Wang Meng was lying on the bed with his eyes and mouth tightly shut. His cheeks were swollen and he was gritting his teeth hard.
This situation was very dangerous. If he bit his tongue, he would die.
"When he came back in the morning, he was very fatigued. He said he would sleep for a while and wake up after lunch."
Zhou Pei's tone was anxious. "At noon, we called out to him a few times, but he didn't wake up. Hence, we went to eat by ourselves and after an afternoon nap, I planned to call him along to cultivate. However, I discovered that he was in such a state."
Actually, he wasn't going there to cultivate. he was going there to see the new female students who were preparing to enter the school.
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight.
Ding!
Warning: Use is restricted during the Student Recruitment Meet. Please solve this problem yourself.
Ding!
"Mission issued. Please save Wang Meng. If you fail, you will be punished!"
"…"
If the situation was urgent, Sun Mo would definitely scold the system. What kind of situation was this? Why was the system still giving out missions? Did it have any humanity?
However, although Sun Mo was unhappy that he couldn't use Divine Sight, he didn't feel discouraged or helpless. It was because he had long guessed that such a day would come.
Sun Mo stood at the side of the bed and inspected Wang Meng's body.
His clothes were still on, and there were many wrinkles and stains on them. There were some light green stains on his trousers and shoes, which should be the juice left behind after the plants were stepped on.
"Did he stay overnight last night?"
Sun Mo frowned.
"This …"
Zhou Pei felt a headache coming on. According to the school rules, students were not allowed to stay overnight outside the school. But the school was so big, and there were so many people on the walls. The security guards couldn't possibly manage all of them.
Looking at Zhou Pei's expression, Sun Mo knew the answer.
However, Sun Mo was very curious. There were no internet cafes in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces. What could they do if they ran out?
He couldn't possibly go to a place like the Red Sleeve Fragrance Adding House to have a drink, right?
"Did he learn the art of spiritual control?"
Sun Mo pried open Wang Meng's eyelids.
Wang Meng's eyeballs, which were rolling upward, suddenly turned downward like a corpse coming to life. Wang Meng howled in a low voice and sat up abruptly. He stretched out his hands and grabbed Sun Mo's neck. He even opened his mouth wide, wanting to bite Sun Mo.
"Yes!"
After Zhou Pei spoke, he was so shocked by this scene that his hair stood on end. With a great leap, he hid behind Sun Mo.
Sun Mo lifted his hand and chopped down on Wang Meng's forehead.
Dharma Skyshock Fist!
Bang!
Wang Meng felt dizzy and fell back onto the bed. After that, he was like a mad dog as he leaped up, preparing to bite Sun Mo to death.
Pak, pak, pak!
Sun Mo stretched out a single hand. His index and middle fingers tapped on Wang Meng's body like raindrops, sealing his energy channels.
Putong!
This time around, Wang Meng lay back down like a mummy, unable to move at all. However, his eyeballs were moving about irregularly, looking very terrifying.
"Sun Mo, can you resolve this?"
Mei Ziyu was worried.
"It's a small problem!"
Sun Mo indicated for Mei Ziyu not to panic. After that, he looked at Wang Meng. "Come out yourself. If not, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Teacher, who is he talking to?"
The students craned their necks and peered into the dorm. When they saw this scene, they felt a little scared.
Sun Mo waited for ten seconds and then performed Freedom Proof toward Wang Meng.
BOOM!
A ball of green qi instantly erupted from Wang Meng's body. It was like the mist during the night in winter.
The moment the green qi appeared, it howled in grief and rushed toward the door.
Mei Ziyu pulled out her sword.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The green qi was instantly slashed into seven parts. After that, it scattered and fled.
"This is a spirit body. Ordinary blades and swords won't be able to kill it."
Mei Ziyu frowned. Spirit bodies were like graveyards or mass graves. When too many corpses were lost, the incomplete souls and earth qi would form a type of lifeform.
Why were most of the mass graves so eerie? It was because of these 'auras' that had yet to take form.
Sun Mo lifted his hand and circulated his spirit qi.
Golden light spots immediately flashed around his right hand. After that, they condensed into a walnut-sized ball of light.
Pak!
Sun Mo snapped his fingers and those balls of light immediately shot out. Their speed was extremely fast and before the seven pieces of green qi could react, they had already pierced through them.
The scene was like ice and snow encountering a red-hot iron, directly melting.
Wow!
The students exclaimed in shock.
"What cultivation art is this? It's so magical! "
"The key is that it looks cool!"
"I want to learn it!"
Quite a number of students even made a sneaky snapping motion.
"This is..."
Mei Ziyu naturally knew that this was the Myriad Manifestations Spirit Wave Art.
After all, this was the unique skill of a genius like Bai Shuang. Moreover, the most important point was that in the cultivation world, such long-range cultivation arts were simply too rare.
Hence, everyone might not have seen any of them on the market before, but they would definitely be very familiar with them.
"Damnable humans, destroying my home and even wanting to capture me to become a spiritual beast, enslaving me. How detestable and hateful!"
A low and hoarse voice rang out in the dorm.
Upon hearing this, the students immediately felt a sense of disgust toward Wang Meng. This fellow must have done something bad.
Sun Mo heaved a sigh of relief. His art of spiritual beast control was at the grandmaster-grade. Hence, he knew that such a spirit body couldn't be killed by physical attacks like blades and swords.
Luckily, the Myriad Manifestations Spirit Wave Art was useful. Otherwise, Sun Mo could only whistle to call for help. If that was the case, his dazzling halo would fade.
"Master, why don't you let me take care of it?"
The voice of the scarab suddenly rang out in Sun Mo's mind.
"Yo, Old Jia, you're willing to talk to me?"
Sun Mo teased.
"..."
The scarab was helpless. (I don't want to talk to you. I even want to throw a dung ball at you, but who asked me to be hungry?)
(Forget it, I'll endure it for now!)
(When I recover to my peak, everyone from the Central Province Academy will have to die.)
"You want to eat it? To increase your strength? "
Sun Mo guessed.
"That's right!"
The scarab didn't hesitate. After all, it was going to do it later and wouldn't be able to hide it. "If I become stronger, your combat strength would also increase tremendously."
"Don't tempt me!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched. "Old Jia, I discovered that you are very cunning. How do you have the demeanor of a guardian god? "
"Hehe!"
The scarab was filled with disdain. (I'm not your guardian god. If I have a chance, I can eat your souls without any hesitation.)
"This fellow is an undead creature, right? If you eat it, will there be any negative effects? For example, will you become like Wang Meng? "
Sun Mo had to understand the consequences.
"Don't compare me with trash like humans. Eh, sorry, I misspoke. Master is an exception!"
The scarab introduced, "I'm a guardian god that specializes in soul-type magic. Oh, using your words, it's called cultivation arts. Devouring them is the simplest and fastest method to increase one's strength."
The scarab didn't say anything. Back then, it had always eaten living sacrifices. This was especially so for the pure souls of young boys and girls. They were simply delicious.
Now that it thought about it, it felt a little salivating.
Seeing that Sun Mo was hesitating, the scarab grew anxious. "Master, let me devour it. If not, given your strength, you won't be able to kill it."
"Oh? Is that so? "
As Sun Mo spoke, he snapped his fingers again.
A walnut-sized ball of light suddenly took form and flew toward the glass window.
BOOM!
The ball of light smashed into a shadow on the wall, creating a fist-sized hole in the wall.
"You..."
The scarab was extremely angry because it could sense that the soul fluctuation of that undead creature was disappearing. This meant that Sun Mo had killed it.
"I'm sorry, it was killed by me."
Sun Mo spread his hands, feeling very helpless.
"Why don't you go and die?"
The scarab cursed.
"What did you say?"
Sun Mo frowned.
"Eh, I say, why is my mouth so annoying?"
The scarab finally came to a realization. This human had enslaved it. It could only respect him and couldn't disobey him. He was the type of man who would never be tempted or threatened.
"You can retreat. In the future, without my instructions, don't speak recklessly!"
Sun Mo's tone was strict.
This was also a technique to tame spiritual beasts. Otherwise, if the scarab was disobedient, it would be better not to have it.
"Master, I don't dare to do it anymore."
The scarab submitted. "I'm willing to be at your beck and call."
It was fine. It would cower for now. In the future, there would definitely be a day when it would be able to properly taste the souls of these humans.
"That undead creature has already lived for over 300 years. It would be too much of a pity to waste it just like that."
The scarab persuaded, "Why don't you let me eat it?"
"Scram!"
Sun Mo's words were concise and comprehensive.
"Master, even if you are raising a dog, you have to give it food, right? Could it be that you plan to starve me to death? "
After the scarab said this, it felt its heart beating very quickly. There was no solution to it, it was too embarrassing.
Before Sun Mo could reply, Wang Meng suddenly regained consciousness.
(Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?)
After asking three questions, Wang Meng roared.
(Where's my spiritual beast?)
