Chapter 786 - 784: Is This Even Human?

Chapter 786: Chapter 784: Is This Even Human?

If it had been earlier, Mo Lin might not have felt confident.

But now the situation is different.

Mo Lin currently possesses the strength of the Netherlord Realm, so even if the opponent is the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy, Mo Lin is confident to fight them.

Longka thought for a moment, then said.

"Jiangzhou people.

The souls of those Jiangzhou people come from the Cloud Immortal Realm.

They are very formidable, once the strongest."

Longka asked Mo Lin: "Do you know why this group of people was captured?

Actually, they have a fatal weakness.

Using their methods will consume their soul power.

Once their soul power weakens, their strength will also decrease.

It was because we knew this weakness that we had the opportunity to capture those Jiangzhou people."

"To exhaust the soul power of those Jiangzhou people, we set up the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy Array.

It took a full six months."

You could say it was their teamwork that exhausted the soul power of the Jiangzhou people, and eventually gave them the chance to capture this group.

All the mysteries, at this moment, were finally unraveled.

So, the capture of Jiangzhou people by Yin Qi can be explained.

The fact that performing magic would consume their soul power was something Mo Lin had known very early on.

Unexpectedly, this matter would become a deadly problem leading to the downfall of Jiangzhou people.

"Then what?" Mo Lin asked coldly again.

"You cannot kill the Evil Buddha.

The Evil Buddha cannot die." Longka slowly said to Mo Lin.

Zhao Tian really called it.

A few days ago, Zhao Tian had mentioned to Mo Lin that the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy would not let him kill the Evil Buddha.

Now the development of events was exactly as Zhao Tian had described.

No deviation at all.

"When can I kill the Evil Buddha?" Mo Lin countered back to Longka.

"Wait until all the people practicing Cannibal Cultivation Method turn into monsters.

Wait until there are no living people in the East District.

Wait until the Buddha’s Son is born.

By then you can do whatever you want, and nobody will stop you."

"Can you understand what you’re saying yourself?"

Mo Lin retorted to Longka.

These words contradict themselves.

No living people in the East District, then what about Mo Lin?

Doesn’t Mo Lin count as a living person?

Longka showed a bizarre smile, "In short, you cannot kill the Evil Buddha now."

"What if I insist on killing the Evil Buddha now?" Mo Lin asked forcefully.

"We, the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy, will join forces to kill you."

Longka stood up and threatened Mo Lin: "How will you choose?"

"Kill the Evil Buddha." Mo Lin replied resolutely.

He won’t abandon his plan to kill the Evil Buddha just because of a few words from Longka.

Mo Lin raised his right hand, the inky Nether Qi diffused around his body.

Longka still wore a strange smile on his face, retreating backward until his figure disappeared into the darkness.

Longka was clearly not prepared to confront Mo Lin.

He seemed more like he was testing Mo Lin’s attitude.

Mo Lin raised his right hand, the Nether Qi like threads, flew towards the direction where Longka disappeared.

Mo Lin attempted to find traces of Longka.

Longka seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind.

"Six-Eared Mingyue, you stay here."

Mo Lin turned to Six-Eared Mingyue and said.

One person must stay in Beihai.

To prevent anyone from making a move on Beihai.

"Alright." Six-Eared Mingyue understood Mo Lin’s intention and nodded in agreement.

Then Mo Lin took Luo Xiaoxiao and Yun Xue’xue to the West Mountain.

.....

On the way, Mo Lin and the other two passed by a village.

The village wasn’t desolate, it had human presence.

As they entered the village, they could smell a stench.

As if something was being cooked and emitting this odor.

In the middle of the village stood a disheveled woman.

In front of her was a large pot, with unknown contents being cooked inside.

She was stirring it with a stick, muttering to herself.

"Cannibal Cultivation.. I’ve succeeded.. I’ve finally succeeded."

The woman raised her head and screamed: "Immortal Qi... I finally have Immortal Qi."

As her words fell, she noticed someone coming over and instantly turned her head.

"Hey... Have you come to steal my things?"

Seeing the woman’s face, Mo Lin furrowed his brows.

The skin on the woman’s face had burst open.

Revealing blood-colored bones.

Her face skin burst like popcorn, still bleeding.

Seeing her in this state, Mo Lin immediately thought of something.

Cannibal Cultivation, side effects.

Seeing her in this state confirmed one thing.

Every person who enters Cannibal Cultivation has different side effects.

"Die!"

Black-clothed woman’s body emitted a pure-colored Immortal Qi.

Pure-colored Immortal Qi rushed towards Mo Lin like a sharp sword in the air.

Mo Lin raised his hand, the Nether Qi appeared in his palm, blocking the attack of Immortal Qi.

Nether Qi emerged around Mo Lin like armor, as he rushed directly towards the black-clothed woman.

In front of the black-clothed woman, Immortal Qi condensed into a long sword, slashing towards Mo Lin.

Mo Lin swung his right hand, mobilizing Nether Qi to block the black-clothed woman’s attack again, and at this moment, Mo Lin was already in front of her.

"Boom!"

Mo Lin punched hard at the black-clothed woman’s chest, and the sensation was quite unusual.

Unlike the feel of striking a human chest, it was like hitting a paper figurine.

As if this black-clothed woman’s body was hollow.

The black-clothed woman took a punch, stepping back two steps, and the next moment, her surrounding Immortal Qi bound Mo Lin tightly like spider silk.

The woman’s mouth opened wide, at this moment, she completely lost any semblance of humanity.

Her sharp teeth were like those of a shark, with an open mouth that could fit a large watermelon.

Mo Lin raised his hand, and the Cyan Cloud Sword appeared beside him.

"Jingming."

Mo Lin performed Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship.

The next moment, the black-clothed woman’s head was sliced off with one sword stroke.

Her head fell to the ground, without a drop of blood.

Mo Lin stared at the woman’s corpse, stunned.

Empty... the woman’s body was actually empty.

Inside seemed to have been hollowed out, leaving nothing there.

Only a surface of flesh, no internal organs or anything.

To be precise, she no longer counted as human.

"Is this what Longka meant by monsters?"

Yun Xue’xue evaluated the black-clothed woman’s corpse carefully.

"She no longer counts as human.

Those who practice Cannibal Cultivation Method will ultimately end up like her."

Luo Xiaoxiao squatted down, closely inspecting, then said: "Isn’t this a living sacrifice?

She’s only alive; in reality, her body’s origin has long been sacrificed."

"Could it be that all practicing Cannibal Cultivation are now like her?" Luo Xiaoxiao casually remarked.

This sentence caused Mo Lin and Yun Xue’xue’s expressions to become unprecedentedly solemn.

People practicing Cannibal Cultivation Method make up eighty percent of the East District’s population.

Following Luo Xiaoxiao’s statement, these people were all sacrificed alive.

Then the question arises:

For whom was the living sacrifice made?

Is it meant to awaken someone?

Or to accomplish something else?

Generally, living sacrifices are used to awaken some entity.

To know, this living sacrifice is extravagantly large-scale.

Who needs to be awakened, requiring such a massive cost?

Moreover... who devised all of this?

"Are you sure it’s a living sacrifice?" Mo Lin asked Luo Xiaoxiao.

"It should be." Luo Xiaoxiao nodded in response.
