When Xu Shenxing rolled up his sleeves, intending to end this chapter in three lines, Qin Xingyan and Mo Li finally arrived at the Earth Shrine.
"Senior, please wait a moment!"
Seeing that Xu Shenxing looked like he was going to release a torture CG at any moment, the cultivator girl hurriedly stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong with Jiang Jin's spirit veins!" the girl hurriedly replied.
The first to notice the abnormality was Xiao Zhengyi's police car that had turned into a monster, but no one paid much attention to it at the time. Now that they thought about it, it was very likely that the police car monster itself was a monster born of spirit energy, so it was very sensitive to the spirit energy in the Earth Vein.
However, when they approached the Earth Shrine, even Qin Xingyan, who didn't have a very high level of cultivation, could feel the strange flow of spirit energy. It was obvious that the problem with the spirit veins was imminent.
"Oh, if that's the case, the culprit is that girl in front of us." Xu Shenxing pointed at the coquettish girl who had a chance to catch her breath.
Qin Xingyan didn't say much, and just stared at the girl with a serious expression.
"Heh, it seems like there's still someone who knows what's good for them …"
The girl smiled strangely.
"Sure enough, you've injected all the spirit energy in the Earth Vein into your body!" Qin Xingyan gritted his teeth as if he had understood something.
Seeing that the two girls were communicating in riddles, Xu Shenxing frowned slightly and looked at Mo Li.
The little girl who shared the same heart as him thought for a moment, then made an explosion gesture with her hands, and said in the same tone as a certain white robot, "Bang ~ balalala ~"
"It'll explode? What does that mean? "Xu Shenxing was even more confused.
"Her body contains a lot of spirit energy. If she dies in this state, the spirit energy will explode from her body …" Qin Xingyan hurriedly explained.
"Does that mean it will blow up the entire Jiangjin City?" Xu Shenxing sneered. "Then there's no problem. I'll throw her into a different space and kill her."
"Not only that, but the Earth God's whereabouts are also unknown." Because Qin Xingyan had not noticed the statue on the other side of the room, he only treated the Earth Loli as a missing person. "If the person who stabilizes the flow is also dead, then the spiritual energy in Jiang Jin's veins will gush out in one go. When that happens, the density of spiritual energy in Jiang Jin will be unbelievably high."
"It's true that a certain amount of spiritual energy is beneficial to human beings, but just like oxygen, once there's too much of it, the benefits will turn into disadvantages. Under standard atmospheric pressure, if human beings stay in pure oxygen for twenty-four hours, they will contract pneumonia, which will eventually lead to respiratory failure and suffocation. In the same way, when humans are exposed to a high density of spirit energy for a short period of time, their bodies will mutate due to the corrosion of spirit energy … and the result of this mutation will often lead to errors in the human physiology. Some organs will not be able to work, and in the end, they will die. "
"But the most frightening thing is that this is just the beginning. The high-density spiritual energy is only temporary. Soon, the spiritual energy will dissipate, and the people who have adapted to the environment and survived will die in this situation. Jiang Jin and the surrounding land will completely become a dead land where plants cannot grow and living creatures cannot survive because of the loss of the spirit veins. This city will also become a forgotten wave in human history, just like the ancient city of Pompeii that was buried by a volcanic eruption or the surrounding area that was destroyed by the carbon dioxide explosion of Lake Neos (one of the three deadly lakes in Africa, recognized as the world's deadliest lake by the Guinness World Records in 2008). "
So that was the reason why that guy had been so fearless all this time ….
Xu Shenxing thought to himself.
He slowly lowered his head, and his face was also covered by the shadow of this action, so others could not see his expression.
"Do you finally understand now? Yes, only I can attack you at will, but you won't be able to fight back because of fear of harming the innocent! "
At the same time, the body of the former Earth God finally began to mutate. On her back, black keratinized organs that looked like spider feet grew. The way they opened and closed was extremely disgusting.
While shouting at Xu Shenxing, she rushed toward him.
The next moment, the woman … no, the monster's upper body and head exploded with a bang, and green viscous body fluid splashed around.
The body that looked like a headless corpse also fell to the ground weakly.
After a while, twisted granulation started to grow crazily from the wound on that half of the body. Among the granulation, there was a twisted face with a twisted expression on its face.
"Why?!" Its voice was sharp and harsh, no longer like a normal human or even a creature, but even so, it could not hide the horror and fear in it, "Why can you still attack me without hesitation?! Could it be that you know that this level of injury is still within the range of my rebirth? "
"Who knows that kind of thing?"
Xu Shenxing, who had blocked all the disgusting bodily fluids with his cloud scales, slowly raised his head. However, unlike before, his gaze seemed to have lost interest in everything. It was a gaze that was purely fixated on death.
The air seemed to have frozen because of this.
"Spiritual energy can cause harm to humans? Then blast away all the spiritual energy that leaked out! Will Jiang Jin become a land of death without a spiritual vein? If that was the case, he would punch out a new spirit vein! There will be a way for that kind of thing in the future. But before that, I want to kill you, and this time, it won't change for any reason. " Xu Shenxing said calmly with a cold tone, "You want to make things difficult for me with this kind of multiple-choice question? How much do you look down on me? "
He was not joking, nor was he bluffing. The man in front of him really ignored all the possible consequences and wanted to kill him!
Hurry up and move! Even if he couldn't escape, he had to at least put up a final struggle!
Even though he knew that he couldn't continue to stay motionless like this, no matter how he urged him, his body didn't move at all.
It wasn't because he was bound by a spell or petrified, but simply because he was facing an existence that was far superior to him in terms of life level, which caused his body to be unable to move.
It was like a weak herbivore facing a predator such as a hungry wolf might have the intention to escape or fight back, but when a giant dragon descended from the sky, the natural suppression of the food chain would cause them to be unable to move at all. In this world, people called it the Dragon's Might, but in the end, it was just a suppression of life level.
Seeing the opponent's appearance, Xu Shenxing wasn't surprised at all. In fact, the opponent's performance was already considered good. In the past, when facing him seriously, some of his enemies were literally scared to the point of shitting their pants.
At this moment, something fell from the sky (accurately speaking, from the ceiling).
Xu Shenxing turned his head and found that the person who came was actually Xiao Zhengyi, who was guarding the police car.
"Oh, oh! My feet are numb … "Xiao Zhengyi, who had jumped down from a height of tens of meters, had a sour expression on his face.
"Master, I think you need to train more," the Yuanrong Sword's sword spirit suggested seriously. In fact, if it wasn't for her protecting Xiao Zhengyi, just that one hit would have turned Xiao Zhengyi into a pile of mosaics.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Shenxing frowned and asked.
However, it would have been better if he hadn't said anything. As soon as he spoke, Xiao Zhengyi and the former Earth Goddess on his back froze. Even the Yuanrong Sword's sword spirit directly disappeared.
"Oh, I forgot that I'm still in Serious Mode."
Xu Shenxing took a deep breath and let his state of mind return to normal. Only then did the air in the temple seem to circulate again.
"That, that scared me to death, I almost peed my pants!" Xiao Zhengyi immediately sat on the ground without caring about his image, gasping for air.
The monster targeted by Xu Shenxing's aura directly collapsed on the ground. Its body was soft as if it had no bones, and could only desperately gasp for air.
Other than Mo Li, only Qin Xingyan, who was protected by Mo Li, was relatively normal. He only felt a little pressure.
"This girl just woke up and said that she has something to say to you." After Xiao Zhengyi recovered a little, he immediately threw the blame to the little girl on his back.
Therefore, Xu Shenxing's gaze also shifted to the latter.
"Let me make it clear in advance. If you're pleading for your lower body, then you don't have to say anything."
"No, I just hope that you can wait for a little while."
The little girl shook her head. "When I fainted, I vaguely understood how the balance between me and her was maintained. Once upon a time … we were one, but the power of the Institute of Divine Punishment gradually corroded my heart with hatred. At the same time, I also deeply loved Jiang Jin's land and humans. When these two feelings were at odds with each other, 'we' were born."
"At first, I thought that the flow of power and memory was determined by the strength of our bodies or minds, but later on, when I thought about it carefully, I realized that something was wrong … If that was really the case, then I, who had almost no memory and was extremely weak at the beginning, should have been swallowed by her in an instant. After that, I understood that the weight between the two of us was only based on one standard, and that was the strength of 'feelings' … or 'determination'. "
"She wanted to take revenge on Jiang Jin, on humans, and her feelings of revenge surpassed my feelings of love for humans. My power and memory would be taken away, and on the other hand, I would be able to take away her power and memory … Previously, when Miss Fei Gong invited me to eat, I subconsciously had a good impression of humans, so I took back part of my power and memory."
Xu Shenxing gradually became impatient.
"But what does this have to do with the current situation?"
"I want to atone for my sins. I won't beg you to forgive her, but 'our' sins must be repaid. The mess she left behind, I have to solve it. " The little girl said firmly. "The current situation of this land is very bad. If we let it continue like this, it will take at least a hundred years to repair … but there is a way to improve this situation."
"What way?"
"Sacrifice a human to this land."
"…"
Earth God Loli did mention this before. If it wasn't for Xu Shenxing getting the Living Soil from the moon, Jiang Jin's situation would have worsened.
But they didn't expect that in the end, they still had to do this step.
While the others were in a daze, the little girl pulled out a gemstone dagger from the floor.
Then, she held the dagger, knelt there, and closed her eyes. "But, the current me can't be used as a human sacrifice, so it will take some time …"
As she spoke, her body began to gradually grow, and the clothes that Mizuki Takemiya bought for her burst out. Her originally young and inexperienced curves also became plump and full.
Because the monster was on the verge of death, it naturally didn't have the heart to continue hating the humans and land of Jiangjin. That was why the girl was able to retrieve the remaining memories and power of the monster so easily.
It was just that this change made Xiao Zhengyi not know where to put his eyes for a moment.
On the other hand, Xu Shenxing's face was still half-opened like a dead fish's eyes.
As the little girl grew up, the monster's body gradually withered. In the end, the human part of the monster disappeared, leaving only the pure monster part.
After losing the restraint of the foreign body, it struggled to stand up with the tenacious vitality of the monster. It wanted to escape from the Earth Temple, but it was directly smashed into pieces by Xu Shenxing.
Suddenly, Jiang Jin's spirit vein began to go berserk. Countless spiritual energy poured into the center of the spirit vein, the Earth Temple. If this was allowed to continue, it would soon be washed away by the spiritual energy.
And the former Earth God little girl … or rather, the little girl opened her eyes and slowly stood up. She didn't feel ashamed or anything because she was naked. She just walked lightly to the statue of Earth God Loli, gently stroked the roots outside, and said softly.
"You've done very well. Leave the rest to me."
As if these words had an effect, the roots retracted back into the ceiling.
Then, the little girl bit her finger and smeared her blood on the statue of Earth God Loli.
After doing all this, the little girl turned around, looked at Xu Shenxing, and said in a clear voice, "Although I'm sorry, but can you please thank Miss Fei Gong on my behalf?"
Xu Shenxing hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
If that was the only request …
The little girl showed a relieved expression, raised the gemstone dagger, and stabbed it into her chest!
