The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 195 The Charming Feeling Brought by the Shroud (6k)

The two of them moved forward cautiously.

But not long after, the ground suddenly shook violently. The two men immediately became alert and looked around vigilantly.

Immediately afterwards, from the mine that the two men had entered before, inky black fog surged out, like a black tide of anger, rushing towards them with a terrifying sense of oppression.

In a flash, two figures emerged from the fog in a miserable state.

I saw that their Taoist robes were already torn.

The right arm of one of them was strangely twisted into a pretzel shape, and the other had half of a white bone spur stuck in his back. The blood surging from the wound was dark green and emitted a pungent stench of decay.

"Old Xu, it's already this late, and you still haven't taken out that thing? What are you waiting for?"

The figure with bone spurs stuck in his back roared anxiously, veins bulged on his neck, and under the skin, earthworm-like protrusions squirmed wildly, as if something was about to break out of the skin.

However, the man with the broken arm had a face full of horror, his eyes wide open, and fear had taken over all his sanity.

He didn't care about anything else and turned around to flee madly. Dense bone-white mycelium emerged from his seven orifices, swaying with his movements, as if covering him with a layer of strange white gauze.

Witnessing this scene, Zhou Qing was shocked and his face was full of panic.

This ancient mine is indeed extraordinary, and its horror is far beyond imagination.

After such a short period of time, he actually forced two Soul Severing Realm experts into such a desperate situation.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them flew past them at a high speed, and a large amount of black fog followed them like a shadow, surging after them.

Zhou Qing knew that the black fog could not see them, but his heart was still beating uncontrollably.

buzzing-

The black fog rushed past the two of them, and Zhou Qing's pupils suddenly shrank.

He clearly saw countless human-faced moths floating in the thick black fog.

On the wings of each human-faced moth, there is a crying face of a baby, with distorted facial features. The crying sound seems to be real, drilling straight into people's hearts and making people feel creepy.

Soon, the two men were seen panicking and hiding under a jujube tree not far away. They leaned against the trunk, gasping for breath, their chests heaving violently.

Then, they took out a large number of pills from their storage bags and swallowed them frantically.

The black mist kept circling around the jujube tree, and then began a fierce attack.

In an instant, a green light descended from the jujube tree, tightly protecting the two of them.

When the black fog collided with the light, shrill screams were heard, as if countless wronged souls were wailing.

After a while, the fog reluctantly dissipated slowly, leaving only dead silence.

Zhou Qing subconsciously turned to look at Number Six, the shock in his eyes still lingering.

You said before that a Soul Severing Realm master had fallen here, and I thought it was a bit exaggerated. Now it seems that you really underestimated this place.
Number Six's eyes were fixed on the two embarrassed figures. It seemed that this was the first time he had witnessed such a tragic scene, and his expression was solemn.

Then he slowly exhaled and said in a low voice, "This restricted area has existed for too long. The ancient mine is not the most dangerous place."

Hearing these words, Zhou Qing was even more shocked.

It seems that if we can pass through this mining area, there must be even more terrifying places.

But at the same time, he became more and more awed by the Shenxu Heavenly Palace.

For a place like this, it still includes simulations, worthy of being something from a long-extinct seventh-level cultivation country.

"I have explored three safe places in the ancient mine," No. 6 raised his hand and pointed to the place where the two men were recuperating.

"I came here a while ago and asked a relative to come and help. For safety reasons, we sang love songs under three jujube trees, but there are no more reminders."

Number Six added, his words full of regret.

Zhou Qing smiled slightly, how could one be successful in everything with just one trick?

The reason why the jujube tree outside can help is because it is the relic of a strange spirit that died long ago.

She had spent her entire life waiting for the young Taoist priest with a peach wood sword to come and pick her up, so singing love songs was useful.

But this does not mean that other date trees are so special.

"Let's go!" Number Six said nothing more, turned around and continued walking forward with Zhou Qing.

……

Along the way, the wind whistled in my ears and an eerie silence filled the air, making people dare not be careless at all.

About half an hour later, the two landed in front of a mine.

As soon as I landed, a strong stench of decay hit me in the face, as if there were countless corpses rotting inside.

This made Zhou Qing frown and he subconsciously raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose.

Number Six said a little embarrassedly, "I've been exploring this mine for quite some time, so I have some experience. Choosing it was probably a coincidence. The smell will be relatively better once we get inside."

After saying that, No. 6 went in first.

Zhou Qing followed closely behind. As soon as he stepped in, a cold air hit him directly, instantly penetrating his clothes and invading his bone marrow, making him shiver uncontrollably.

Zhou Qing suddenly realized that it was no wonder that she chose this place. It turned out that it was closely related to her ice-type physique. In her eyes, the coldness of this mine might be just the comfortable environment that made her feel at home.

The mine was not pitch black, but rather had a faint light.

As the two continued to go deeper, the suffocating stench gradually faded away, but the air was still filled with a damp and stale smell.

【Today's post is being refreshed...】

【The new post has been saved in the odd post record, please check it in time. 】

Zhou Qing had just taken two steps when the system's crisp prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind.

He was startled at first, then a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously: "Random enough, but I like your unpunctuality."

Zhou Qing immediately entered the realm of mind and opened the Book of Strange Letters. What caught his eye was a cyan-gold letter.

[Copy Post: Within three breaths of the target performing their cultivation technique, place the post between their eyebrows to copy it. Alternatively, you can directly place it on the jade scroll to copy it.]

Zhou Qing was excited after seeing the introduction.

Every time this post appears, it always brings people unexpected surprises and expectations.

At this moment, looking at No. 6 who was walking in front of him and clearing the way for him, and the seemingly bottomless mine ahead, Zhou Qing suddenly had an idea.

“Perhaps this copy post comes at just the right time!”

The ground at the foot of the mine was soft and muddy, and every step felt like walking in a swamp.

Soon, Zhou Qing noticed that there seemed to be a fight in the mine. The deeper he went, the more severe the wall collapse became.

In fact, there are still sharp ice crystals in many places, flashing coldly in the hazy light.

It seems that these should be the traces left by the real body of No. 6 when he came to explore and took away some precious things.

"From an outsider's perspective, this mine may not be worth exploring anymore, but in fact, there's a whole new world inside!"

No. 6 walked all the way to the bottom of the mine, then stopped and took out a piece of red bone from his storage bag.

The moment the bone appeared, the blood in Zhou Qing's meridians stagnated, and even the "Golden Crow Burning Sky Classic" started to operate on its own, causing a blazing golden halo to appear around his body, but it quickly stopped.

Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes and stared at the bone.

It was crimson all over, as if it had just been fished out of a sea of ​​blood, with wisps of blood lingering around it, and faint, shrill phoenix cries could be heard coming from it.

Seeing this, Number Six explained in a low voice, "This is the real Blood Phoenix Bone. It's also the divine bone I obtained from this mine after hundreds of simulations. It's because of it that I was able to determine the secret of this place."

After Number Six finished speaking, she quickly formed seals with her hands. In an instant, countless spiritual seals emitting dazzling light emerged from her fingertips.

Ten thousand spiritual seals wrapped it, and in less than a moment, the Blood Phoenix Bone seemed to be activated, emitting a dazzling blood light, which echoed with the spiritual seals and made a buzzing sound.

Soon, the stone wall at the bottom of the mine in front of us began to undergo strange changes.

The originally rough and hard stone wall seemed to have turned into a calm lake, with ripples spreading out in circles.

Amidst the ripples, space twisted, revealing a dark passage.

This scene is somewhat similar to the abyss where the Golden-winged Roc fell.

Number Six turned to look at Zhou Qing, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and said, "It's right here, follow me!"

After saying that, she took a deep breath, took the lead and stepped into the ripples, her figure instantly disappearing into them.

Zhou Qing also became curious, gritted his teeth and followed.

As soon as I passed through the ripples, a stronger, more damp, fishy smell hit me in the face. The smell was like a mixture of rotten meat sealed for a thousand years and the salty taste of the deep sea, making me almost nauseous...

Zhou Qingqiang endured the discomfort, opened his eyes and looked around, only to discover that there were thousands of cocoons hanging upside down from the ceiling of the entire cave.

Each cocoon is translucent, and the curled-up humanoid creature inside can be vaguely seen.

On the surrounding cave walls, a kind of slime emitting faint light was flowing, winding down the stone walls and gathering in the low-lying areas.

The unpleasant smell comes from here.

"Shh!" At this moment, No. 6 made a shushing gesture, his eyes full of vigilance.

Zhou Qing nodded in understanding. He could feel that the things inside the cocoon were alive and exuded a violent and dangerous aura.

"I need that thing. Is there any way to get it?" Number Six turned slightly sideways, lowered his voice, and spoke in a volume close to a whisper.

Zhou Qing looked in the direction that No. 6 pointed, and saw an ancient stone platform standing quietly in the center of the cave, with a blood-red scroll placed on it.

On one side of the stone platform, a magical medicine that seemed to be made of ice sculpture grew out, with a round white fruit on the top, and faint wisps of spiritual energy emanating from it.

There was no fragrance, but Zhou Qingdi felt as if he saw a few green leaves on the ancient tree in his own cave.

It definitely contains tremendous vitality and powerful medicinal properties.

This is definitely a real miracle medicine.

Just as Zhou Qing was secretly marveling at it, the white fruit suddenly flashed with light and turned into a snow-white bird, sleeping soundly on the branch of the magic medicine.

It has a small body and its feathers are as white as snow without a trace of impurities. The soft fur rises and falls gently with its even breathing.

Especially the bird's head is slightly tucked under its wings, making it look very cute.

Zhou Qing's pupils shrank at this scene. A magical medicine that could transform him?

This is this...

At this moment, Number Six quietly approached Zhou Qing, gently pulled his sleeve, and pointed to the other side.

Zhou Qing looked in the direction that No. 1 pointed, and saw a piece of bloody cloth, just like a nimble black python, swimming quickly among the many cocoons hanging above.

"The magic medicine is very important to me, but this piece of cloth is blocking it!" Number Six said in a low voice.

Zhou Qing roughly understood it, and after a brief hesitation, he went straight to the appraisal.

[Human Emperor Shroud: This is a shroud that once wrapped the ancient Human Emperor. Under the influence of this mining area for many years, it has developed its own divine consciousness and is currently cultivating its own strange army.]

Apart from this, there is no other introduction.

This made Zhou Qing a little regretful.

Human Emperors are also divided into strong and weak. The leaders of fourth-level, fifth-level, or even sixth-level cultivation countries can all be called Human Emperors.

This shroud has now developed intelligence and can compete with ordinary Soul-Severing Realm cultivators. This shows that the person it wrapped in during his lifetime was definitely not ordinary powerful.

Moreover, the densely packed transparent cocoons above the cave ceiling are all its carefully cultivated subordinates.

Since No. 6 asked him to come, it means that in reality, he will definitely not ask anyone else to share a piece of the pie.

She wanted to get the magical medicine by herself. Otherwise, it would be easy to find a few more Soul-Severing Realm masters to restrain the Shroud while seizing the medicine.

Zhou Qingze looked at the spiritual medicine and the scroll on the stone platform. After thinking it over, he said, "I will try to understand the specific situation first."

Number Six heard this and nodded without hesitation.

Only by finding out the truth first can we formulate practical and feasible response strategies.

She had come here many times and tried every possible means, but she had never even touched that magical medicine.

But Number One, aren’t you injured in real life? Will this work?

Zhou Qingze breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately took out the [Copy Post] in his hand, and then looked at the red scroll on the stone platform with burning eyes.

Generally speaking, things in a simulated environment cannot be taken out, and it is difficult to truly see the full picture.

Just like the Lingyun mushroom that I saw in the passage when I was in the cave, and the "Yin Yang Sutra" floating on the first coffin.

You can only locate them, but you can't capture them.

As for the red scroll on the stone platform, he had a feeling that what it contained was definitely extraordinary.

I just don't know if the [Copy Post] can be copied in a simulation environment?
So, he wanted to try it.

If it succeeds, then I will really get rich.

Number Six was also curious, but did not make any noise to disturb them. Instead, he stood quietly by.

After Zhou Qing was ready, he aimed the [Copy Post] at the red scroll and threw it out.

The next moment, as if sensing something, the shroud on the top of the cave suddenly became agitated and let out a sharp and piercing roar.

The sound was like the wails of countless wronged souls, echoing in the cave and making people's eardrums hurt.

Immediately afterwards, the shroud rushed towards the [Copy Post] like a black lightning.

But the strange thing is that despite the swift attack of the Shroud, it was still unable to touch the [Copy Post].

The post was extremely flexible, constantly dodging left and right, easily avoiding fatal attacks time and time again.

Number Six, who was standing by, was completely stunned by the scene before her. She opened her eyes wide with an expression of disbelief.

She could never have imagined that a seemingly ordinary post could remain unscathed by such a powerful shroud attack.

What kind of post is this?
Then, she subconsciously looked at Zhou Qing, and a sense of awe arose in her heart.

Perhaps the number one who came this evening is much stronger than any of them.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

He had already guessed something when he sent the [Bad Luck Post] to the man in white.

Any post given by the system, as long as it locks on the target, no matter how powerful the opponent is or how terrifying his strength is, will madly drill into his body like a maggot on the tarsal bone.

Any external force or means to stop it will be of no avail.

-

Just as the [Copy Post] was about to approach the scroll, a huge blood-red phoenix suddenly appeared above the scroll.

Its cry was like a heavy hammer, hitting Zhou Qing and No. 6's hearts hard, shaking their blood so much that they almost lost their balance.

"It's the Blood Phoenix!" Number Six said in shock.

Although she had simulated this situation many times and had approached the stone platform before, she had never encountered a scene like the scroll.

Could it be that the post on number one gave the scroll a sense of crisis, which is why it was triggered?
Blood Phoenix Projection!
No wonder I was able to sense this place with the Blood Phoenix Bone, and used the skills of a fourth-level formation master to constantly explore before I could open this space.

Zhou Qing was also shocked, but more of it was ecstasy.

Maybe, this time it really works.

At this moment, the blood phoenix was burning with blazing blood-red flames all over its body. That flame was completely different from the Golden Crow Fire that Zhou Qing controlled.

It was a blood-red color so rich that it was almost sticky, as if the flowing blood was burning, emitting a strange and hot smell.

Wherever the flames reached, the air seemed to be boiling, making a sizzling sound and constantly distorting and deforming.

At this moment, the blood phoenix held its head high, its eyes like two burning blood suns, staring closely at [Copy Post] and issuing another threatening warning.

Seeing that the post was still approaching the scroll regardless, the feathers on the Blood Phoenix's body instantly stood upside down and turned into extremely sharp red blades, shooting out like a rainstorm.

But the [Copy Post] still ignored it. As it got closer, it suddenly emitted a dazzling light, covering the scroll.

At the same time, countless ancient blood-colored characters appeared in Zhou Qing's mind like stars.

These characters exude an ancient and burning atmosphere, as if they have spanned endless years and carry a long history of vicissitudes.

In just less than three breaths, a text with far more words than the "Emperor Brilliant Sutra" was formed.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing was overjoyed. It actually worked!

But the strange thing was that although these characters were clearly presented in his sea of ​​consciousness, he could not see any of them clearly, as if there was a layer of vague gauze that separated them from Zhou Qing's perception.

Just when Zhou Qing was full of doubts, the [Copy Post] turned into powder and drifted away in the wind.

The blood phoenix roared towards the sky again, with a sense of victory in its cry, and then slowly returned to the scroll, as if nothing had happened.

The moment the Blood Phoenix appeared, the shroud began to float around restlessly, never daring to get close.

The bird transformed from the magical medicine, which was originally sleeping soundly, was already trembling with fear. It hid nervously aside, staring at everything with pitiful eyes, looking extremely helpless.

Fortunately, everything has finally returned to calm temporarily.

At this time, the shroud also discovered Zhou Qing and No. 6 and pounced on them directly.

"Let's wait until tomorrow!" Zhou Qing said.

Number Six didn't understand what was going on, but nodded anyway. However, before the two of them could leave, the shroud suddenly came and wrapped them tightly.

The two of them felt a black screen before their eyes, and their bodies were tightly wrapped by a cold and sticky touch.

And it kept tightening, forcing the two bodies to stick tightly together.

Number Six's face suddenly turned red, and he felt panicky.

All this time, she was killed by the Shroud alone.

I was so shocked by the magic of the mysterious post No. 1 that I couldn't react for a moment.

When she came to her senses, the two of them were already pressed tightly together.

At this moment, Zhou Qing couldn't help but be stunned.

He could clearly feel Number Six's rapid breathing spraying on his neck, the warm breath carried a hint of panic that was difficult to conceal.

Although both parties could not see each other's faces clearly, the sounds of their pounding heartbeats intertwined together and seemed particularly clear.

Soon, Zhou Qing realized that a sinister force was beginning to erode his body, and his vitality was being rapidly drained.

The blood in the body seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, drying up rapidly, spiritual power dissipated like a tide, and consciousness gradually became blurred.

"I'll wait for you tomorrow!" It seemed that this was the first time that No. 6 was so close to a man. Although it was in a simulation state, her voice trembled slightly.

Before Zhou Qing could react, a violent aura suddenly came towards him.

Zhou Qing only saw a dazzling light suddenly rising, and then his eyes blurred, and the whole person turned into a ball of light again.

"Um, what time tomorrow?" Number Six's voice sounded from the side.

Zhou Qing seemed to be still immersed in the charming atmosphere just now, his mind wandering. When he was questioned, he suddenly came to his senses and said subconsciously: "Let's wait until we finish eating."

"Okay!" Number Six responded softly and exited the simulation.

At this moment, Zhou Qing suddenly felt embarrassed and even touched his chest subconsciously. The feeling just now involuntarily emerged in his mind.

So soft!

This thought flashed through Zhou Qing's mind, and then he shook his head repeatedly.

What are you thinking? I am not the kind of person who takes advantage of others in distress!

He calmed himself down and looked at the images of No. 4 and No. 5. It seemed that they were still exploring, so he withdrew.

……

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the cave quietly like silver gauze. Zhou Qing put away the token, but his mind kept recalling the scene just now.

If it were someone else, they might feel a little uncomfortable, after all, in that hazy wrapping, they have no idea whether the other person is a man or a woman, old or young.

But he had seen Number Six after all. Although she was always wearing a veil, she was clearly a great beauty under her cascading silver hair.

After feeling the even snoring of his third senior brother, Zhou Qing suddenly remembered something and quickly looked to his sea of ​​consciousness...
