Somewhere on Lianyun Star.
The autumn wind blew, and the setting sun was like blood.
It was supposed to be harvest season, but the land was scarlet for thousands of miles. There were also some places where golden immortal valleys had already matured. However, there were people with no harvest. There were fallen corpses everywhere, and in some villages, there was not a single living person to be seen.
On a small path outside the village, three figures supported each other as they walked over. Waves of coughing could be heard from afar. The coughing was heart-wrenching, as if they were going to cough their throats out at any time.
These three people were Ye Kong and the others who had fled all the way here.
"These bald donkeys, they didn't even let us see Grandmaster Ku Ye's face and chased us out!" Wu Yong cursed and coughed violently again.
Ye Kong supported Kuang Peng and sighed: "You can't blame Grandmaster Seven Treasures. If we were to enter the temple, we might infect those monks."
Wu Yong still said angrily: "Then you have to let us see Grandmaster Ku Ye."
Kuang Peng coughed violently and said: "Forget it, I guess Grandmaster Ku Ye also has no choice. Otherwise, with Grandmaster Ku Ye's benevolence, why didn't he come out to treat those believers infected by the immortal poison?"
Kuang Peng was right. Not only were they infected by the immortal poison, many of the mortals in the Immortal World were infected as well. The mortals died even faster, which was why the Lianyun Star was in such a miserable state.
Thinking of this, Wu Yong gritted his teeth and said: "Mani Sect is going against the grain and will be destroyed sooner or later."
Kuang Peng sighed and raised his tired eyelids to look into the distance: "I'm afraid I won't see that day … cough … cough …"
Seeing Kuang Peng's despair, Ye Kong's heart was burning with anxiety. However, his tone was still relaxed as he said with a smile: "Brother Kuang Peng, don't despair. Maybe the King of Elixirs is waiting for us up ahead."
"King of Elixirs?" Kuang Peng's pale lips revealed a hint of mockery. He wanted to say something but was interrupted by a violent cough.
Ye Kong patted his back and said: "Brother Kuang Peng, don't talk anymore." After Ye Kong finished speaking, he said to Wu Yong: "I see you've been infected again. There's a tree up ahead, go take care of it."
Ye Kong's so-called solution was to transfer the immortal poison in his body to the tree. Wu Yong could use the Heavenly Dao of Wood to retreat into a living tree. At that time, he would become one with the tree. When he came out of the tree, most of the immortal poison would be transferred to the tree trunk. After repeating this a few times, the immortal poison would be cleared. This was a function that Wu Yong had never used before.
Although Wu Yong would cleanse the poison every other day, he would still be infected with a new immortal poison every day when he came into contact with the Kuang Peng. Therefore, he could only continue to cleanse the poison and be poisoned.
Wu Yong came to the front of the big locust tree at the village entrance and repeated a few times. The immortal poison was mostly gone. He did not intend to continue. Even if he was done, he would still be poisoned.
While Wu Yong was purging the poison, Kuang Peng was sitting on a boundary sign by the roadside, gasping for breath. The coughing caused by the immortal poison had made it hard for him to breathe. He took a few deep breaths, and his complexion improved a little. Then, he squeezed out a smile and said, "I thought that my power of wind and lightning was powerful, but I didn't expect it to be useless compared to you guys. Not only is it not as overbearing as Ye Kong's Heavenly Dao of Destruction, it's even inferior to Brother Wu Yong's Heavenly Dao of Wood. "
Wu Yong scratched his head and said, "I'm the one who envies your power of wind and lightning. This Heavenly Dao of Wood is the useless one. It's only this kind of poison cleansing effect." It seemed like everyone was envious of other people's power of Heavenly Dao. Wu Yong said again, "Young Master, why is your Heavenly Dao of Destruction immune to all poisons? It's really strange."
Ye Kong was poisoned with them that day, and he was with Kuang Peng every day, but he didn't have any symptoms of being poisoned at all. This was really incomprehensible. Actually, Ye Kong knew that there was a reason why he was immune to poisons. It wasn't because of the Heavenly Dao of Destruction, nor was it the power of the Flying Catkin. What blocked the immortal poison was the Benevolent King Armor!
Although this thing didn't listen to Ye Kong's orders, it could take the initiative to protect its master. In the end, that immortal poison was a kind of minute and strange creature in the Demon Realm. Ye Kong was unable to sense it, but the Benevolent King Armor could easily deal with it. Therefore, he wasn't poisoned at all! If Wang Yue and the others knew about this, they would definitely vomit blood again.
After Wu Yong cleared the poison, the three of them walked into the village. Ye Kong released his immortal sense and discovered that the village was already empty. Basically, everyone was dead. There were one or two who didn't die, but they were hiding in their homes, struggling at death's door.
Kuang Peng could no longer walk. Ye Kong and the others could only find a clean and empty house, clean up a bed, and let Kuang Peng lie down.
Walking out of the small house, he looked at the setting sun. Ye Kong's gaze was solemn as he stood in the courtyard, motionless for a long time.
"Brother Kuang Peng, I'm afraid …" Wu Yong suddenly said. He had been suppressing his emotions for a while, but when he really opened his mouth, he still choked with sobs. His eyes were red, and he couldn't speak.
Ye Kong also let out a sigh of relief and said, "How can we meet the King of Elixirs in this kind of aimless search? Hurry to Salt Head Planet …" Ye Kong shook his head again. Not to mention that there wasn't enough time, even if they went to Salt Head Planet, would the King of Elixirs be waiting there?
Wu Yong said, "In the Immortal World, I'm afraid only the King of Elixirs can save our lives. But the Immortal World is so big, where can we find the King of Elixirs?"
Ye Kong said, "The Lianyun Star has had an outbreak of immortal poison for a long time. The King of Elixirs is a benevolent doctor, so it's very likely that he's here. That's why I left … However, Lianyun Star is also very big. There are cities, villages, and suburbs. Even if the King of Elixirs is really there, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Wu Yong also didn't know what to say. He heard Ye Kong say again, "So I've thought about it. You should bring Brother Kuang Peng to the Mani Sect's temple, find the person in charge, and bow down to them in exchange for some time …"
Wu Yong was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly interrupted, "Young Master, you can't! That Mani Sect is cruel and unscrupulous. If we beg them, I'm afraid we'll be begging for death. "
Ye Kong waved his hand and said, "It's fine. Bring me a jade note, and I'll compromise with them. As long as they don't kill you, I won't kill a single one of them …"
At this time, a loud bang came from behind. Kuang Peng had already struggled out and fell to the ground. He roared, "Silly! If that Mani Sect gets hold of us, they'll definitely use our lives to force you to appear … Cough, cough, cough … At that time … what will you decide! Cough! Cough, cough, cough! "After Kuang Peng finished speaking, he was already coughing so hard that he couldn't breathe.
Ye Kong hurriedly went up to help Kuang Peng up. He hurriedly patted his back, allowing him to breathe more easily.
Kuang Peng coughed for a while. When he calmed down, he immediately said angrily, "Ye Kong, you're so silly!"
Ye Kong didn't say anything. He looked at Kuang Peng for a while before saying, "I can't watch my friend die …"
Kuang Peng laughed out loud. His pale face already had some color. He used all his strength to say, "Ye Kong, did you know that the night we met, I heard that you had a grudge with the various great Immortal Emperors. I started thinking about what excuse I should use to bid farewell to Fairy Yi Yi. You actually thought that I was thinking about whether or not to capture you …"
Ye Kong's eyes were filled with tears as he hurriedly apologized.
"I don't blame you. The Immortal World has always been unpredictable. One can only live for a long time if one is more cautious." Kuang Peng continued, "I left the North Thearch and followed you guys. Now that I'm poisoned and about to die, I don't regret it. I don't regret it at all. If I had to do it again, I would still make the same decision! Because we are friends. In the Lower Domain, we are friends. In the Immortal World, we are still friends! "
Ye Kong already couldn't speak and nodded silently.
Kuang Peng said all this in one breath. He no longer had any strength. His voice started to weaken as he said softly, "What I admire about you the most is your uncompromising character … Don't, don't do … things that make me look down on you …"
As Kuang Peng spoke, his voice was already so weak that it couldn't be heard. The hand that was originally on Ye Kong's shoulder also fell powerlessly.
He was physically exhausted and actually fainted.
At the side, Wu Yong's face was streaming with tears. He ran out of the small house and roared at the setting sun that was about to disappear.
"Ah!"
Not far away, a muddy monkey-like child hiding in the bushes was frightened by this shout and started crying loudly. "I'm scared, big sister, save me!"
Wu Yong had already been blinded by grief. He only felt that killing a few people would be satisfying. Hearing the child's cry, he kicked away the haystack and pulled the little child out. He roared, "Go and die! All of you go and die! "
"Stop!" A cold shout sounded. Ye Kong was already standing behind him.
Wu Yong suddenly came to his senses. He put down the child and turned around to kneel down. "Young Master, I was wrong. I am really going crazy."
Ye Kong also sighed and helped Wu Yong up. Now that things had come to this, even he himself had the urge to go crazy.
"Go in and rest for a while." Ye Kong walked to the child's side and said, "Child, go home. You were frightened just now."
The child cried and said, "Thank you, big brother. You are just like the big sister in front. You are both good people. That big sister is not only beautiful, but she also gives us food and treats our illnesses. Big brother, you and big sister are a pair of good people … "
"Treats!" When Ye Kong heard this, his eyes instantly turned green.
Wu Yong, who was just about to leave, also rushed back with large strides and grabbed the child. "What big sister? Where is she? Treat what illness? Quick, quick, quick! Tell me quickly! Wahhh! "
The child was scared out of his wits. He cried loudly and didn't say a word.
Ye Kong thought, 'You're asking like this, even scaring a child to death, he won't be able to get an answer.' He hurriedly pushed Wu Yong away and picked up the child. After persuading him for a long time, he finally heard from the child that a beautiful woman came a few days ago. Not only did she distribute food to everyone, but she also found immortal herbs to treat everyone's illnesses.
Ye Kong was overjoyed and hurriedly asked where that big sister was.
The child pointed to a small col in front of the big mountain behind the village and said, "Big brother, big sister lives there. You must not tell that big guy that he is a bad person. "
Ye Kong laughed loudly, "Alright, I won't tell that bad person."
Following that, Ye Kong entered the house and brought the unconscious Kuang Peng straight to the small col.
When they entered the small col, the sky was already completely dark.
In the col, there was a thatched hut with a little light. From afar, he could smell the smell of herbs.
Ye Kong and Wu Yong looked at each other, their eyes filled with joy. Ye Kong carried Kuang Peng and hurriedly ran to the straw hut. When he walked to the door, he was immediately stunned.
He saw a woman in a white dress that looked like a white lotus busying herself inside.
