MTL - Demon Slayer Starts From the Proficiency Panel-Chapter 38 [038] Ghost Back, Longevity Road
Chapter 38 [038] Ghost Back, Longevity Road
Because the Demon Suppression Prison is located under the earth and sees no light all year round, those who have been in it for a long time have a distinctive feature.
That is, the skin is pale, and the blood and veins are visible at a glance.
When Ning Xiu found the head of the jailer in the hall, he hadn't seen him for a while, and the man became particularly haggard.
A pair of dark circles under the eyes, coupled with a pale complexion, it really reflects such a sentence.
'Like a ghost'
"Uncle, why did you become like this? If you really can't stand the evil spirits entering your body, you should apply for a transfer from the Demon Suppression Prison, instead of staying here and supporting yourself." Ning Xiu said in surprise.
"Fuck you, I'm a sixth-grade doctor, you told me that I can't stand the demonic energy entering my body." The jailer chief immediately retorted.
But at this moment, he noticed Ning Xiu's cultivation, and his expression instantly became surprised and shocked.
"You, are you at the seventh rank of martial arts?"
Ning Xiu smiled and said, "Exactly."
"How long has it been? It's not even half a month. Are you being overwhelmed?"
There is indeed a saying in martial arts, but the conditions of use are very harsh and the cost performance is very low, so it is rarely seen that someone uses it.
The person who is empowered will lose all the internal power in the body, and when it is poured into another person's body, only one-twelfth of it will remain.
Therefore, generally only when the martial arts ancestors pass away, will it be passed on to the most beloved junior in the clan indifferently.
In other cases, it is absolutely impossible for most warriors to do this.
"Uncle is joking, how can I have that blessing, it all depends on my hard practice." Ning Xiu said.
"I heard that some people with extraordinary talents can progress rapidly in their cultivation as long as they choose the right avenue, far exceeding ordinary people. Could it be that you..."
The head of the prison guard shook his head: "Forget it, let's not talk about this, what are you coming to suppress the demon prison for this time, do you want to come to punish the evil spirits again?"
"Uncle understands me, so please help me arrange it. Now I'm a seventh-rank martial artist. Uncle, you can figure it out. Don't lower your standards because I'm young."
"Last time you came, I thought you wanted to share the pressure on the Demon Suppression Prison, but today it seems that you have some hobbies.
That's all, I happen to have a stubble on hand right now. You came at the right time. Help me execute this stubborn stubble first. Today I will arrange a treat for you. "
Ning Xiu asked curiously: "What kind of evil is it? It can even make you call it a hard stubble."
"It's not an evil spirit, Fang Tianhu, a martial arts demon who has fallen halfway, a sixth-rank martial artist, and he is a master of horizontal training.
I searched for three or four old prisoners but couldn't execute him, you can try it out, cell number 380 in the district, come back and tell me if you can or not, then I will arrange other things for you. "
"Okay, then I'll try it." Ning Xiu nodded and agreed.
Town Demon Prison Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Fourth District, most of the detainees in the Yellow District and Xuan District are lower-ranked demons or evil spirits.
And the area is specially used to detain the dangerous targets of the third grade.
This is the first time Ning Xiu has come to the area, and he can't help expressing his high appreciation for the environment and smell of the area.
Compared to the blood-stained and smudged ground in the Xuanhuang District, the area is simply much better. After finding the cell number 380 skillfully, Ning Xiu pushed the door and walked in.
Suddenly a huge figure appeared in his eyes.
The head is as big as a wheel, and the shoulders are very wide.
At least two women can sit on each shoulder at the same time.
This person is clearly sitting cross-legged on the ground, but his height has reached an astonishing seven feet.
Ning Xiu was very sure that even if he had turned on the Heavenly King state, he would not stand taller than the person in front of him sitting.
He was like a giant, and he was astonishingly big all over his body.
The hair that hasn't been washed and treated for a long time has fallen to the knees, and has been tied into ropes and coagulated into lumps.
The nails of the hands and feet are as long as animal claws, which are very scary.
Isn’t this a prehistoric savage dug out of a ravine?
Ning Xiu couldn't help but have such an idea in his mind.
And what is more concerning is that the body was pierced with hundreds of special black iron chains inside and outside.
The places where these chains pass are all the acupuncture points on Fang Tianhu's body. From the point of view of Ning Xiu, a martial artist, these chains can very well restrain Fang Tianhu from exerting force all over his body. I think his inner strength has been abolished.
Coupled with the restraint of these chains on the strength of the human body, Fang Tianhu was locked here and could not find any waves.
"Hmm... It's ridiculous to change the person again. There is no torturer who can cut off the head of this old man in such a huge Demon Suppression Prison." The man said with a grin.
His voice was like thunder, and the sound of the shock echoed throughout the cell, making it deafening.
Ningxiu went to the table where the torture instruments were placed in the house and began to pick out the tools suitable for him.
"You're a sixth-rank martial artist. It's not easy to practice Kung Fu for decades. Why don't you think about it and want to fall halfway?" Ning Xiu asked as he picked up a bone-cutting knife with a serrated blade.
Before he came, Ning Xiu read the profile of Fang Tianhu from the head of the jailer.
Male, 69 years old, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He is not a member of the Demon Fighting Division. He established his own sect, the "Iron Tiger Sect" in Baisha Prefecture.
In the past 20 years, it has been in the limelight in Baisha Prefecture, and it can be regarded as a famous Jianghu sect in the local area.
I don't know when it started, Fang Tianhu's body size has become bigger and bigger for some reason. In a few years, it has grown from the original five feet tall, and the original house can no longer allow him to live.
His wife and concubine panicked.
His children are also very puzzled.
The disciples of the Iron Tiger Sect invited carpenters to expand the house for Fang Tianhu, making it as luxurious and tall as a palace.
This matter was also famous in the Iron Tiger faction back then.
And as his size began to grow, Fang Tianhu's behavior also became weird. He began to practice and went to the no-man's land behind the sect.
And during the period, no one should be near that place. Anyone who violates the ban will be killed without mercy.
Although the disciples in the Iron Tiger Sect were puzzled, because of Fang Tianhu's prestige, no one thought about it.
This situation continued for a long time, until one day, a few of Fang Tianhu's enemies in the rivers and lakes sneaked into the back mountain of the Iron Tiger faction, ready to besiege Fang Tianhu, and then came across Fang Tianhu's secret.
Fang Tianhu, who was cultivating alone in the back mountain, had no clothes on. On his back, there was a ferocious and ugly ghost face.
This ghost face is so eloquent that it communicated with Fang Tianhu. Obviously, it was teaching Fang Tianhu a certain cultivation method, and Fang Tianhu chose to cooperate and accept it.
On the ground, there are still a large number of stone heads of the common people, many of them women and girls, and there are traces of abuse on their bodies. It is obviously done by Fang Tianhu, who uses these innocent people to help him cultivate.
Cultivating the exercises taught by evil spirits is a half-way downfall in Dashang.
As a result, those few enemies gave up their intention to besiege and went directly to the government to report a letter, and let the people of Fumo Division arrest Fang Tianhu on the spot.
Ren Fang Tianhu, no matter how strong the sixth rank of martial arts, and no matter how hard he is in horizontal training, is not the opponent of the team led by the bronze leopard Fumowei. He was immediately captured and escorted back to the town demon prison.
Hearing Ning Xiu's words, Fang Tianhu snorted coldly: "How can you understand the temptation of the Tao of Longevity, the seventh-rank martial arts like you can understand, the old man only hates to contact it too late, and only when you are old and old did you know that there is such a Tao in the world. , these decades of martial arts are all wasted years."
"Longevity Dao?" Ning Xiu wondered, "Is there this in the Three Thousand Dao?"
"The world only knows that by walking the three thousand avenues, you can slay demons and demons, stop the troubled world, and redeem the common people. However, only when you are old and old will you realize what you want most."
Fang Tianhu looked at Ning Xiu: "The three saints of Fumo Division are all supreme beings of the first rank or above. After four hundred and eleven years of death, no one has reached the realm of five hundred years of life.
Even their terrestrial god-like characters are still like this, so it can be seen that the potential of the Three Thousand Avenues is only so, not as good as my longevity. "
It was quite interesting to hear what he said. It was also the first time that Ning Xiu knew that the three saints who founded the Fumo Division had lived for so many years. If he had traveled a hundred years earlier, he would have been able to catch up with the existence of Martial Saint. .
Ning Xiu said: "Isn't it a long time to live three or four hundred years? How long do you want to live?"
Fang Tianhu touched his beard and looked proud: "Compared with the Tao of Longevity, the three saints are completely mayfly and big trees. The third rank of Changshen can get five hundred years of short life, the third rank can prolong life for a thousand years, and the top three rank longevity."
Ning Xiu threw the knife: "The limit is 10,000 lifespan, so in the end, you have to die."
Fang Tianhu immediately and rigorously explained: "You have to be clear, what this old man cultivates is the way of longevity, not the way of eternal life.
And after 10,000 years, no one can say what the world will be like at that time. Maybe there will be a new secret method of prolonging life, and the old man can continue to survive on the wealth and power accumulated over the past 10,000 years. "
Ning Xiu shook his head and said, "Presumably this is what the evil spirit who bewitched you halfway told you, right?
It's really old and confused. Now the entire big business, even the dolls with incomplete teeth, know that prolonging life, wealth, and strength are the three entry points for evil spirits to deceive people.
The fallen leaves return to their roots, spring and winter come, birth, old age, sickness and death, everything is a natural law, if you change your life with greed, you will end up as a person and a ghost. "
"Yan Que knows how high the sky is. You have been instilled and educated by the concept of Fu Mo Si, and you can't understand the mystery of the longevity path. It's a pity. If you had some wisdom and knew how to distinguish black and white, the old man still planned to put his own The longevity exercises that you have learned will be passed on to you, so that you will realize the way of truth in this world."
Fang Tianhu said the back, his whole face became extremely excited and distorted, Ning Xiu quietly performed the Spiritual Eye Observation Technique to check.
Then he saw the evil spirit lingering on the other party's body, attacking the body and mind, and three black lines extending from his left chest all the way to the Tianling Gai, and the appearance of death was full of death.
This is not to say that if you cultivate to the next third grade, you will have a short life of 500 years. It is estimated that you will not even live until next year.
Fang Tianhu is 69 years old. Seeing his 70th birthday approaching, he doesn't know how many years he has left to live. His heart is filled with regret and longing for life.
Therefore, under the bewitchment of evil spirits, he chose to fall halfway and concentrate on cultivating his so-called longevity path. I have to say that this is also a helpless move.
poured the internal force into the palm of his hand, and saw that the torture knife in Ning Xiu's hand soon became extremely red, and even white smoke slowly floated, which was a manifestation of the increasing temperature of the blade.
Previously, the head of the jailer had sent several prisoners to execute Fang Tianhu, but they all failed due to the fact that the other party had practiced cross-training for decades.
Ning Xiu decided to find another way and start from other ways.
"Choosing to practice the evil power method is only your own business, the sin will not die, you can be sent to the mine to work for 30 years to repent.
But at the same time you cultivated, you also killed 72 people, killed your own kind, and harmed others and yourself. You are simply inferior to animals. "
Ning Xiu glanced at Fang Tianhu, and then slashed his ankle with a knife.
Sizz! !
The hot blade came into contact with the flesh of the human body, and it reacted instantly.
But after a few breaths, Fang Tianhu's leg only had a scorched black hole, and even the blood had not flowed out.
This made Fang Tianhu's face suddenly show a disdainful smile: "The old torturers in front of you can't kill the old man, what can you do, the old man's training in the past few decades is not in vain, you don't come to the sixth grade. The above-mentioned Fu Mowei, don't even think about killing this old man."
Ning Xiu frowned, it shouldn't be. With the help of the internal power of the Great Sun Xuanjing, even copper and iron can be cut off.
Assuming that you are a sixth-rank martial artist, you shouldn’t have only such an effect with this knife, even if you find a monk who is a sixth-rank Buddhist monk and has a small golden body.
Ning Xiu also didn't believe that the other party could ignore his own knife so much. Obviously, there must be some reason why Fang Tianhu was so invulnerable.
As long as this reason is deciphered, the execution of this person can be completed.
At this moment, Ning Xiu's mind suddenly flashed.
He remembered something recorded in the Fang Tianhu information file.
Those enemies who went to the government to report the letter clearly said that they saw a ghost face behind Fang Tianhu.
And this ghost face can speak with Fang Tianhu, perhaps this is the reason why Fang Tianhu can be invulnerable, not just relying on the horizontal practice that he has cultivated for decades.
Thinking of this, Ning Xiu immediately turned around and walked behind Fang Tianhu, intending to find out.
"What are you going to do?" But when he saw Ning Xiu's move, Fang Tianhu immediately became a little wary.
"What are you panicking, I heard that you have a ghost back, show me." Ning Xiu walked behind Fang Tianhu, and the other party immediately wanted to start dodging.
But the area where this person can move has been fixed long ago, and this is simply not possible at this time.
made it easy for Ning Xiu to see the appearance behind Fang Tianhu.
That is really an extremely ferocious and fierce grimace, and the whole looks like a seven-point prajna.
Around this grimace, there were all kinds of talismans affixed to the town of Xiandao.
Those with ghost backs are not common in the Demon Suppression Prison.
However, people whose bodies and evil spirits are generally one, basically have some unknown special abilities.
Ning Xiu immediately used the internal power of the Great Sun Xuanjing to heat the torture knife again, and then threw it at Fang Tianhu's ghost back.
Zizzy!
Unexpectedly, this time the torture knife was inserted into Fang Tianhu's body with ease. Although it was only a few inches deep, it directly verified Ning Xiu's guess.
The reason why Fang Tianhu is so invulnerable is because of this ghost's back.
"what!"
Just as Ning Xiu watched, the grimace slowly opened his eyes and spoke.
"Don't hurt this seat, this seat can teach you the avenue of longevity, the dynasties are changed, the sea is withered, and this seat can make you a witness to their demise."
Ning Xiu was astonished: "Being stuck by the Fu Mosi's talisman, he can still speak. I'm afraid the origin of this evil spirit is not small at all."
Hearing that the other party claimed to be this seat, Ning Xiu immediately thought of something.
In the land outside the state that was not controlled by the Shang Dynasty, those big demons and evil dao who lived in seclusion in a certain cave in a certain mountain liked to call themselves by their self-proclaimed title and deity.
Fang Tianhu has a grimace on his back, and the longevity Dao in his mouth is not simple.
