In Xiao Yifeng's view, the purpose of Luo Hu's side was very clear. What they wanted was the heavenly corpse.
Zhao Wuji's purpose is somewhat unclear.
On the surface, this old guy wanted him and others to help him catch Han Chengyan, the corpse of Han Shui.
But there was something strange about his behavior, it didn't seem like that was all.
Xiao Yifeng carefully reviewed all the things she had come into contact with, and then suddenly caught a flash of inspiration.
This old guy is luring himself and others over, he is stalling for time!
When he met the Corpse King on the road, he deliberately let slip something to attract his attention to the Corpse King.
This is dropping the bait and luring yourself into the bait.
After arriving at Xuanyin Mansion, he was not in a hurry. Although he prevented himself from finding out the truth, he didn't seem to be afraid that the truth would be leaked.
But when he said he wanted to leave for the first time, he immediately showed up with Qin Miaomiao.
It was that time that he took the initiative to tell about the Shipo Sacred Tree, took him to visit the underground world, and donated the Immortal Liquid.
Although it seemed that he had lost money, he successfully prevented himself from leaving and kept himself.
After Song Mingzhe died, Zhao Wuji knew that he paid special attention to Song Yu and asked the corpse puppet to kill her.
It seemed that he had discovered the secret and forced him to confess some more, but there was no doubt that he and others were allowed to stay again.
Was this old guy afraid that he would lose his patience and leave first?
July 15th, a very dark time, what’s the secret?
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yifeng used Immortal Killing to protect his whole body, turned into a black shadow and re-entered the deep cave under the Corpse God Tree.
Based on his impression, he carefully passed through the huge root system of the Shipo Divine Tree and flew all the way to the depths of the Shipo Divine Tree.
He flexibly shuttled through the root maze under the Corpse God's tree, wanting to go to where the Corpse God's heart was to find out more.
There are many corpse puppets patrolling this road. Although they are not powerful, they will alert others once they are killed.
Xiao Yifeng relied on the power of killing immortals to blend into the darkness like a ghost, bypassing the zombie patrols without making a sound.
After a period of avoidance and detours, Xiao Yifeng came to the area where the Heart of the Corpse God was.
This place is darker and filled with strong death energy, and the heart of the Corpse God is beating quietly as before.
But I don’t know if it’s because when the extreme yin is approaching, the heart beats faster and faster, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Moreover, there was an additional restriction here compared to the last time he came here, and a powerful repulsive force blocked his progress.
Looking at the weird barrier, Xiao Yifeng tried various methods, but could not break it.
At this moment, he suddenly found that the traces of the formation's operation seemed a bit familiar.
Secret Volume of Heavenly Corpse!
He took out the scroll and studied its contents intently, and sure enough, he quickly discovered a way to open the restriction.
Zhao Wuji, you are so unreasonable!
But he probably didn't expect that he would ask him for the Secret Scroll of the Heavenly Corpse.
Xiao Yifeng quickly formed a seal, and soon a crack opened in the restriction, and he slipped in through it.
Looking at the beating heart of the Corpse God, Xiao Yifeng flew closer to the Heart of the Corpse God.
But as he got closer, the heart of the Corpse God beat more frequently and his aura became sharper.
A powerful repulsive force, accompanied by mixed emotions, surged toward Xiao Yifeng like a torrent.
The evil thoughts of countless people poured into his heart. This was a powerful emotional force condensed from the memories and resentments of countless dead people.
Under the impact of this force, Xiao Yifeng felt as if he was surrounded by thousands of wails and roars.
Countless negative emotions pierced his soul like sharp knives, making him dizzy and unable to control himself.
If he hadn't been very adaptable to this situation, he would have been overwhelmed by this force.
Xiao Yifeng did not dare to stay for a long time and quickly retreated. After struggling to stabilize his body, his energy and blood surged.
He took a deep breath, recited the Formless Heart Sutra silently, and began to stabilize his state of mind.
Zhanxian dressed in red appeared next to him, with his small hands gently pressing against his back, and power poured into his body to help him eliminate excess negative emotional effects.
After a while, Xiao Yifeng opened his eyes with lingering fear and felt the hostility from the heart of the Corpse God.
This hostility was strong and resolute, as if warning him not to try to contact the heart of the Corpse God again.
"Zhanxian, can you get close to it?"
Zhanxian thought for a moment and said, "I'll give it a try, but I feel like there's little hope."
She did what she said, revealed her true form, turned into a stream of light and pierced the heart, but was forced back by the heart.
Zhan Xian returned to Xiao Yifeng, shook his head and said: "No, it has strong resentment and anger, stronger than anyone I have ever seen."
Xiao Yifeng was about to try other methods. At this moment, he noticed someone was coming, so he hurriedly covered himself with Immortal Killer and hid aside.
The visitor quickly came to the Heart of the Corpse God, with a gloomy face, but it was Zhao Wuji!
He first carefully checked the surroundings, but the ability of Zhanxian to conceal his breath was so powerful that Xiao Yifeng hid far away.
His cultivation was such that he couldn't notice the existence of the two of them at all, so he felt relieved.
Zhao Wuji cut his wrist, and blood continued to flow out towards the heart of the Corpse God.
He softly recited strange incantations, as if performing some kind of ritual, and the entire underground palace suddenly became extremely weird.
The Heart of the Corpse God seemed to be aware of Zhao Wuji's ritual, and its beating became more rapid, releasing stronger emotional fluctuations.
Zhao Wuji's spells became more and more weird, as if he was communicating with the heart of the corpse god, and the heart of the corpse god also responded to his call.
The roots of the Shipo Divine Tree also began to shake slowly, seeming to be very active.
"Is this some kind of sacrificial ritual?"
Xiao Yifeng frowned as he looked at this scene. What on earth does this guy want to do?
Half an hour passed like this, Zhao Wuji's face was pale and a little shaky, but there was still a smile on his lips.
At this moment, the water behind him slowly gathered, and finally formed a tall figure.
Xiao Yifeng was shocked, this was the mysterious corpse king!
"You came?"
Zhao Wuji looked back at him weakly, his eyes dim, as if he was about to die.
"Will they interfere with our plans?" came the hoarse and unpleasant voice of the Corpse King.
Zhao Wuji shook his head and said: "They will only be nourishment, so how can they interfere with our plans? Don't cause trouble."
The Corpse King said nothing, and finally said coldly: "Don't forget our agreement!"
"I know!" Zhao Wuji said weakly.
The Corpse King collapsed again, fell into the ground and disappeared completely.
"Zhihan..."
Zhao Wuji sighed, turned around weakly and left, and the underground palace regained its tranquility.
