First, there is the charm power of the nine-tailed demon fox, plus the increase in the monster state, plus the secondary bonus of the four soul jade fragments to the monster state.
Then there is the artificial magic eye. Although it is difficult to reach the level of elegance, it can also enjoy the double enhancement of the monster state and the four soul jade fragments, so the effect is also significantly improved.
But when these BUFFs are all added up, Taoguo people have no idea what they are facing. Even if they are on guard, it will be very difficult to resist, because as long as they are in the sight of the magic eye, Being hit is equivalent to being trapped in the effect of the activated spell, making it even more difficult to guard against.
What's more, he didn't know it at all and even looked directly into Gu Mo's eyes, which naturally made the effect of activating the magic eye even higher.
Gu Mo was adding BUFF to himself, while Taoguo Ren was taking the initiative to add DEBUFF to himself - the former added as much DEBUFF to himself as the latter added, and in the end it was probably all full. So of course, the Taoguo man committed suicide in a daze, and even died without knowing what happened.
"I originally wanted to take action directly, but the defensive power of his fat body is really thick, and now it is directly petrified. I don't think I can tear it apart. It would be embarrassing if we had a stalemate with him there. ...So let’s just let him do it himself.”
Gu Mo explained it this way, and it seemed reasonable.
The witch did not comment on this. After all, no matter what, the best result is to be able to successfully deal with the Peach Man. However, this situation also made her re-evaluate this person. It seems that she still takes it for granted. , the other party also has many secrets.
She even felt a little wary of this man's illusion power for a moment. But after all, her spiritual power is extremely strong and her inspiration is extremely high. It is undoubtedly very difficult to deal with her simply using illusions, so after checking on her own to confirm that there is no problem, she feels relieved.
Moreover, Gu Mo readily handed over the new fragments without any sign of reluctance, which also made the witch feel a little relieved.
——Of course, just a little bit.
After pondering for a moment, she withdrew her gaze from Gu Mo's open palm. Instead of taking the fragment, she said softly: "Keep it first. If you don't know how to use it, then put it away." It’s the same in anyone’s hands, there’s no need to keep it for me.”
"...Is this so?"
Gu Mo blinked his eyes first, then nodded curtly, and said with a hearty smile: "Then I'll keep it for now."
He sighed softly in his heart, but he also understood that Kikyo was cautious about the Shikon Jade. Do you still want to continue testing it? Is it because the price you paid for this jade during your lifetime was too heavy?
After all, if you think about it, the miko girl basically never lived a day for herself in her short life. She had been fighting against the Shikon Jade, but in the end she died because of this jade - and for Naraku who still doesn't know As far as she was concerned, even the people she trusted absolutely betrayed her because of this jade.
It doesn’t matter whoever it is, they probably all have PTSD, and it’s really something that can’t be helped...
Seeing him agreeing so readily, the witch's eyes remained calm and seemed to no longer pay attention to the matter, but her eyes also glanced at the fox ears on Gu Mo's head intentionally or unintentionally.
——Nine-tailed demon fox?
——But where does this kind of existence exist in this world?
——And the opponent at this time no longer looks like a simple half-demon, it seems to be a quite special case...
There were thousands of thoughts in his mind, but on the surface he remained calm. Kikyo looked around calmly and said softly: "It's better to put out the flames now. Don't let the fire spread."
This person's fox fire ignited the house and caused everything that could burn to burn. The flowing high-temperature red was like a dancing elf, and the fire was spreading to other buildings in all directions. If ignored, It was feared that the entire complex would be burned to the ground.
"OK, no problem."
The fox ears on Gu Mo's head twitched, and then he nodded to show that he heard it. He didn't see him doing anything deliberately. The raging fire spreading around him suddenly went out without any warning. That situation.
Everything seems like an illusion.
It’s just the charred roof beams, collapsed pillars, the little goblins and monsters on the ground that exude the strange aroma of barbecue, and the huge residual heat in the air...
These all indicate that a fire did occur just now.
Being able to control flames is one of the basic abilities of the Nine-Tails Guardian Spirit. Especially under the current situation of becoming a monster, what Gu Mo has is no longer the weak halo effect extended by the Nine-Tails' own ability, but the ability to directly use the The power of Kyuubi is very handy in controlling the surrounding flame phenomena.
Although it is still only a part, after all, the complete version should be completely transformed into a monster.
Just like Chacha directly transformed into a nine-tailed demon fox through the power of the nine-tailed guardian spirit.
"I'm going to clean up the fish that slipped through the net."
Kikyo looked around and then said this. She could detect that there were still a lot of weak monsters, presumably those little spirits gathered by the Taoguo people as their subordinates. The so-called hozens disperse when a tree falls. After the Peach Man dies, they have no restraint. If they are not cleared away, they will disperse soon.
But the miko felt it was necessary to avoid future trouble——
After all, the cruel methods these spirits learned from the Taoguo people are indeed very terrifying. It is definitely not a good thing to let them disperse and leave on their own.
"Okay, okay, then I'll go check out the legacy of the old immortal. According to what he said, those magic secrets should all be in the study. Presumably the Taoguo people won't destroy them all..." Gu Mo didn't care about this at all. Opinion, while nodding his head repeatedly, he volunteered to take on the responsibility of searching.
This is the most basic self-cultivation for every player, and this is where the fun lies.
Kikyo glanced at him but didn't say much.
Although the purpose does not seem too pure, at least it has done practical things and cannot force too much. Moreover, it is not a good thing that the other party is interested in immortal arts. If the target is to cultivate as a fox immortal, she is very in favor of it... Immortals are generally very orthodox existences. It would be better if a monster cultivates to become an immortal. .
——It is better to have at least one monster sage from the lawful camp than to keep quiet about an unscrupulous monster. This is the reason.
"It's strange, it can't be lifted..."
After Platycodon left, Gu Mo stopped smiling.
He raised his palms and observed again. The miko might think this was a normal state, but he found that his monster transformation seemed to remain in its current state. He could not release his attachment to the guardian spirit normally, and he had no feeling. to see what is being consumed by oneself.
It's as if...it's "locked" in this state by some kind of force.
"The Jade of Four Souls?" Looking at the new fragment in his hand, Gu Mo simply projected a mirror and opened his system panel.
Directly from the equipment page, he chose to remove the fragment in the accessories column. The powerful amplification blessing brought by the incomplete power of the Four Souls Jade was instantly lost, making him feel like he had fallen from a high place, but he also immediately I found that the "locked" state suddenly disappeared.
The guardian spirit's possessed body began to devour his energy normally, and with a thought, he directly lifted his monster-like state.
The ears on the head disappeared...
The tail behind me gradually faded away...
And the nails that became sharp and long have also returned to their original shape...
"That's true." Gu Mo breathed a sigh of relief and easily equipped the removed fragments on the accessories column again.
The Jade of the Four Souls is like the human heart, divided into good and evil. If the Jade of the Four Souls is given to an evil monster, the monster's power will become stronger and stronger. Under normal circumstances, his Aurahun and Harmony souls are relatively balanced, but after entering the monster state, he undoubtedly chose the side that completely leans towards Aurahun.
The power of the Four Souls Jade will naturally change according to this change, and the demonic power will become stronger and stronger. When it comes to other monsters, the power of the Four Souls Jade can allow them to evolve to a higher level and transform into more powerful forms, but Gu Mo is directly "locked" into the monster state.
After solving this problem, he began to count the gains from the scene in Taoyuan Mountain in front of the mirror——
The life level was raised to LV11, a free attribute point was obtained, and two bronze keys were obtained.
Therefore, the Taoguo Man is really an elite monster, far from being a BOSS. If the legacy of the old immortal had not increased the difficulty of his challenge, I don’t know if this scene is worth a bronze key... maybe it is the same as before. The scene in the village is the same, and it’s not even possible to say that there is nothing gained at all.
Including the previous balance, Gu Mo's current number of keys is two gold keys, one silver key, and three bronze keys.
It seemed that he was getting richer, but in fact most of them were left over from the previous scene. It was just that this dungeon was opened too fast and too hastily, and he had no time to turn them into real growth aids. Originally, according to the plan, he was Prepare to squat in the system store to see if you can get good things, and turn them into skills, equipment, props, etc. that you can use one after another.
Having said that, this world is actually quite rich, why don't we just open a treasure house?
Staring at the number of keys in the inventory, Gu Mo pondered, and an idea came to his mind. It seemed like a good choice to directly draw cards with the keys in the advanced copy.
For example, if you are at the gold level, can you guarantee that you will be able to draw those powerful demon swords and the like... For example, Cong Yun Ya is currently an ownerless thing, can you draw it directly? Gu Mo's thoughts were spinning, but he was still somewhat entangled. It was a bit difficult to define whether Cong Yunya was considered a card pool prize or a prize pool pollution.
Because he clearly knew the whereabouts of that thing. If he really put some effort into looking for it, it would probably be easy to get it. It would be too extravagant to waste a golden key for this.
Concentrating his thoughts, Gu Mo began to touch the corpse, but what Taoguo Man carried with him was the ancient cane and the wine gourd, both of which were the old immortal's magic weapons. However, both of them were obviously not as good as the Taoyuan Township bonsai, so they were both of silver quality, which is the level. It's a little higher, but it's still pretty good.
Especially since this was one of the few serious equipment that Gu Mo Zheng'er had obtained, it was indeed an unexpected surprise.
The power of the ancient cane lies in change and illusion, and the wine gourd also has an independent space inside, which can directly suck people or objects in. It can probably be compared to Master Maitreya's wind cave, but the things sucked in can also be released again. That’s it.
After playing with the two new pieces of equipment happily for a few times, Gu Mo turned away from the charred and collapsed ruins and turned to the next room, leaving only the dead body of the Taoguo man.
…………
It didn't take long for Gu Mo to find the location of the study.
The room is also close to the surface of the mountain. There is a green pine outside the railing. You can see the sea of clouds and the sky outside, and the sunlight can also shine in. There are densely packed hand scrolls and scrolls inside, which record the precious knowledge of the old immortal. Some places have obviously been rummaged many times and appear a bit messy.
But overall, the situation is pretty good.
Although Peach Man is a ferocious cannibal demon, he was also a human before becoming a demon, and he also practiced here for several years.
At least it's not like those evil monsters who don't know anything. They don't understand the preciousness of this place and just destroy it to a mess... They probably still want to refine the elixir of life, and they are thinking about it every day. If you find out the real ultimate secret from the master's secret book, you will naturally not be willing to destroy this place.
But now, of course, these belong to Gu Mo.
There were too many books, and he had no idea where to start for a while, but the traces of the Taoguo people gave him the key points - no matter how bad it was, the latter had spent several years here, and he was still eager to Want to become an immortal, long for immortality.
Therefore, Gu Mo first focused on those books that could be searched by Taoguo people.
Picking up a scroll that was spread out on the ground, he glanced at it. Thanks to the real-time translation mechanism of the dog system, he could easily read the words on it and figure out their meaning. This seems to be the fundamental method of how to become an immortal. It gives the practice method, which needs to be combined with hard training, tempering the body and mind, and grinding the soul to the extreme.
It seems that the way of immortals in this world is to seek spiritual transcendence?
It seems that this is indeed the case. The old immortal's magic power is very strong, but the strength should be his magic power and spiritual realm... Is it because Taoyuan immortal himself is a human being and his body is still relatively weak?
Gu Mo became thoughtful. He remembered that Taoyuan Immortal was not the only example. There were other immortals who appeared later, such as the demon spirit sage and the monster old man who seemed unable to fight back or scold. Talking back, he looked weak after being bullied by Inuyasha.
In fact, he is a strong man who can completely seal Tie Suiyang with just one breath. Even being hit by the dragon-scale Tie Suiyang in the demon cave is as if nothing happened. It doesn't seem to hurt at all.
This is a very obvious example. Even if those monsters and immortals do not count the realms they have reached through spiritual practice, they themselves are the most powerful and terrifying monsters. The combination of the two can reach a very terrifying level.
With his thoughts spinning, Gu Mo shook his head and continued to slowly study the knowledge recorded on the scroll, while also thinking seriously.
On the career selection page that he didn't see, a new page was appearing after the previous career.
The pattern text is very blurry, but as Gu Mo's study progresses, these contents are gradually becoming clearer.
…………
As time goes by, the sun begins to set.
At the same time, several white dead soul insects fell from the sky and landed in the deep valley at the foot of the mountain.
When she came to the human-faced fruit tree growing by the river, the witch took a look at the fruits growing on the tree and said softly: "The one who lives here is not a fairy, but a man-eating monster. But now he He has been executed, you can rest in peace..."
The trees full of fruits opened their eyes one after another, showed expressions of relief and relief after hearing this, and started to express their thanks.
The witch patiently waited for them to finish speaking one by one, and then gently stretched out her hand. The slender fingertips shone with the clear light of spiritual power, and the aura of demon-breaking spiritual energy filled the air.
The entire human-faced fruit tree suddenly shook violently, the leaves rustled, and the human heads on the tree also showed signs of pain. But the next moment, the witch's slender hand gently reached out, and her fingertips touched the rough The surface of the tree trunk burst out with sparkling spiritual light.
In the flash of light, the entire demon tree turned into powder silently. When the wind from the deep valley blew, the powder turned into thousands of winds and flew away, and suddenly it was nowhere to be found.
The witch who had completed the purification sighed. The old immortal had already taken a step ahead. He was already struggling to survive. After hearing that the Taoguo people were defeated, he naturally had no regrets. After thanking him again and again, he turned into light and disappeared, leaving nothing behind. .
And now this demonic tree and the people it has swallowed have been purified by her spiritual power, and things here have finally come to an end...
"Um?"
Suddenly raising his eyebrows in surprise, Kikyo turned around and looked in the direction of the rushing river. His sight seemed to be through the thick fog in the valley, and he saw the end of the horizon.
"This is……"
Of course she couldn't see anything, but her ability to sense the Four Souls Jade made her keenly aware that other fragments were quickly approaching here... No, it shouldn't be said to be fragments, but broken pieces. block, almost one-third of the complete Four Souls Jade!
The fragments of this jade were approaching here with a clear purpose through her special induction.
…………
"Inuyasha, why don't we take a break first? We've been chasing this all day..."
Riding on a women's bicycle, Higurashi Kagome looked at Master Miroku who was running a little out of breath beside her, and then looked at Inuyasha who was running in front of him without looking back, and couldn't help shouting road.
"Actually, I said you can just stay, I can go by myself..." Inuyasha stared straight ahead, still running non-stop. He was already very close. He followed the breath and basically came. Having been on the road all day, it should be very close.
Let you go by yourself... How can I let you go by yourself?
Higurashi Kagome bit her lower lip, and suddenly raised her eyebrows, as if sensing something, she raised her head and looked forward——
"There are fragments of the Four Souls Jade in front of you? Or two! I feel it!"
