Chapter 85: Chapter 81 Wait, no, you you you... (10k)_5
The range of spread is quite far; normal living beings can’t smell it, but those demonic creatures can detect it immediately and are attracted to it.
Because, to them, Blood Tai Sui is the best food. Similarly, these demonic creatures are the best supplements for Blood Tai Sui.
This also explains why so many demonic creatures have appeared around Qingmu City recently.
But judging by the current situation, Blood Tai Sui seems to be absorbing these Spirit Rice, slowly accumulating power, otherwise it would have already attacked the demonic creatures.
It’s very weak right now!
Zhou Qing’s eyes suddenly lit up.
A fully mature Blood Tai Sui contains endless Blood Qi; with just one attack, it can create a sea of blood and even control others’ minds for its own use.
Even if Master were here, he might not be able to overcome it.
At this moment, the old chicken in his arms jumped out and started pecking rapidly.
Zhou Qing looked at it and had a sudden thought.
Ordinary people can’t absorb Blood Tai Sui, but this mutated old chicken can refine anything. I wonder if it can lay a few pure Blood Eggs for me?
Wait a minute, what am I even thinking right now? This is not the time for such thoughts.
Zhou Qing stood up and directly looked at City Lord Hu Xuantang, asking, "City Lord Hu, is there an ancient battlefield around Cyan Wood City? Or somewhere where tens of thousands of people have died?"
Faced with Zhou Qing’s sudden question, everyone, who was clueless, turned towards him.
"Old fourth, do you have any leads?" Yan Xiaohu asked.
Zhou Qing replied, "It’s just a thought. You know my nose is sensitive; I can smell a faint foul odor from these withered Spirit Rice."
"Foul odor?" Lu Yaoyao and others were puzzled.
They all took deep sniffs but couldn’t smell anything.
On the contrary, Yan Xiaohu and Mo Xingjian showed signs of deep thought. Soon, both of their eyes lit up.
"Are you saying it’s Blood Tai Sui?" Yan Xiaohu suddenly asked excitedly.

Before Zhou Qing could respond, he noticed a remark above Master’s head that changed from "Troublesome Disciple" to "Slightly Smart Disciple."
Zhou Qing immediately smiled happily.
It seems Master also thought of something and agreed with his deduction.
While the others were still at a loss, Yan Xiaohu looked at the Spirit Rice in front of him and slapped his thigh, "That’s right, it should be Blood Tai Sui. Only this thing can explain everything that has happened so far."
But Hu Xuantang, who was only at Foundation Establishment Realm, certainly didn’t understand what Blood Tai Sui was. After a brief contemplation, he said, "Yes, 300 miles west of Cyan Wood City, there’s not an ancient battlefield, but a Ghost City."
"Long ago, for unknown reasons, tens of thousands of people in the entire city died overnight, with no survivors. According to historical records, those who entered to investigate found that everyone seemed to have been gnawed by something, and the scene was horrific."
"As time passed, that place became abandoned. Occasionally, some greedy thieves sneaked in, but they mysteriously disappeared. Since then, no one dared to go near."
As Hu Xuantang finished speaking, Yan Xiaohu slapped his thigh again, "That’s it, it should be Blood Tai Sui. Who could have thought we’d encounter such a troublesome creature one day? The coming days won’t be easy."

At this moment, Lu Yaoyao looked at Zhou Qing with shining eyes, full of admiration.
Although she still didn’t know what Blood Tai Sui was, it seemed that Senior Brother Zhou had found the cause of the Spirit Grain’s withering.
Above her head, the "Good Nose" remark changed to "Well-read."

Yan Xiaohu frowned and showed signs of deep thought.
Steward Feng Cheng, who was at the late stage of Golden Core Realm, still hadn’t returned. It seemed he had been controlled and turned into a pawn by Blood Tai Sui.
Thus, it appeared that Blood Tai Sui had already begun to take shape.
Meanwhile, the remark above his head changed from "Junior brother stronger than a dog" to "Little junior brother influenced by proximity."
Zhou Qing glanced at Master unobtrusively and saw that Master looked indifferent to the matter.
It seems he has left the matter to the two of them to handle.
After a brief contemplation, Zhou Qing analyzed, "Everything matches Blood Tai Sui’s signs, but as City Lord Hu said, the Ghost City is more than 300 miles away from Cyan Wood City. Normally, even if it attracted demonic creatures, they wouldn’t surround Cyan Wood City."
Yan Xiaohu’s eyes lit up, "Are you saying that Blood Tai Sui is actually near Cyan Wood City?"
Zhou Qing nodded, "Don’t forget, demonic creatures’ noses are much more sensitive than mine. Plus, the dried-up soil and Spirit Rice indicate Blood Tai Sui is growing slowly. It still can’t threaten the demonic creatures."
"Similarly, those demonic creatures from various places also want to consume Blood Tai Sui to transform, but they can’t find it. That’s why they get enraged and start killing, even extracting Essence Qi from ordinary people to grow strong. Both sides are waiting for the right moment."
As soon as Zhou Qing finished speaking, Lu Yaoyao, like a fangirl, clapped with admiration.
"Senior Brother Zhou, you are so powerful!"
Zhou Qing chuckled.
Yan Xiaohu snapped his fingers.
"Old fourth, your analysis makes sense. Luckily, I’ve kept you by my side all the time, teaching you everything. Look at Old Mo, like a proper master he isn’t. Always goofing around without knowing what he’s doing, often picking fights with us."
"He always says we’re causing trouble and never settle down. He should be secretly delighted to have such smart disciples like us!"
