Chapter 76

"Screech!!!!"

A sharp cry echoed from the cliff face, and a pair of green, glowing eyes emerged from the wall covered in nightshade vines...

The eyes moved among the nightshade leaves, with no sign of the creature's body, only the toxic green eyes that were truly terrifying, as if one's heart had already been ripped out, making breathing quicken!

"Zhuming Liang, it's the nightshade vine weasel, a creature with nearly nine hundred years of cultivation, and it's about to become a demon!" Jin Minjun's voice came from somewhere, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Nine hundred years of cultivation, a creature about to become a demon!!

There is a fundamental difference between spirits and demons; some dragon offspring are even food for demons.

"This beast is relying on us to become a demon!" Jin Minjun's voice was choked, as if he had been crying in anger.

Zhuming Liang stared at the pair of sinister, moving eyes, his heart sinking.

At this moment, the nightshade vine weasel finally appeared, crawling out from the dense nightshade vines, its forward-bent, sharp claws dripping with blood.

Zhuming Liang looked and saw that its claws were actually hooked onto a heart...

Slowly raising its claws, the nightshade vine weasel emitted a laugh like a woman's, a laugh that was eerie and terrifying, and would make one think of a female demon if heard at night!

It bit into the bloody heart, as if eating an apple, leisurely chewing and posing like a woman, but the disgusting sight was even more chilling!

Someone's heart had been dug out.

Which junior sister was it?

Zhuming Liang's eyes gradually turned cold.

By eating the internal organs of a dragon master, it would instantly gain one or two hundred years of cultivation.

This heart was no more than a dessert for the nightshade vine weasel, and since it had become a demon, it no longer needed to hide, its entire body exuding an eerie aura of impending transformation into a human!

"I didn't protect her..." Jin Minjun's self-reproachful sobs echoed.

"Can you move? How are the other junior sisters?" Zhuming Liang took a deep breath before asking.

"Junior Sister Yang hasn't been found, she might have fallen to a lower level." Jin Minjun said.

"Go find her, I'll deal with this creature." Zhuming Liang said.

"It's becoming a demon, you..." Jin Minjun's voice was getting closer, he must have wanted to help Zhuming Liang fight it.

"Go, the dead cannot be brought back to life, protecting the others is key, and the rat-faced creatures cannot be ignored." Zhuming Liang said to Jin Minjun.

"Alright, Zhuming Liang, be careful with this weasel demon." Senior Brother Jin said.

The nightshade vine weasel demon stood like a human, if not for its dark red, blood-soaked fur, its figure was that of a hunched old woman, with a face full of wrinkles exuding deceit and malice.

Perhaps because it had become a demon, and had cultivated by eating human organs, its behavior and movements were imitating humans, but as a spirit, its imitation of walking and smiling was stiff and strange...

Thus, it looked increasingly sinister!

Zhuming Liang calmly stared, and the nightshade vine weasel demon slowly approached.

Suddenly, a strange, intoxicating scent emanated from the nightshade vine weasel, a scent that was so strong it made one feel nauseous!

Zhuming Liang stood amidst a large patch of nightshade vines, and after the scent swept over, the nightshade vines began to transform strangely.

The leaves turned into green claws, their bones clashing together, making an unpleasant, noisy sound!

They seemed to be a large group of demons, reaching out towards Zhuming Liang, as if they had been hiding in the thick nightshade vines, ready to ambush any living beings passing by!

Facing the demonic claws, Zhuming Liang remained unmoved.

Hypnosis and hallucination, the nightshade vine weasel's ability, which originally could only hypnotize humans, had evolved to directly impose such realistic, terrifying hallucinations.

Zhuming Liang's mind was calm, and he was not frightened by these hallucinations.

The nightshade vine weasel demon took the opportunity to get closer.

Ordinary people were no longer satisfying; unless it was a large group of merchants, dragon masters would be its preferred food!

Taking advantage of the hallucination, the nightshade vine weasel had already walked to the side of this human, who was still staring at the hallucination of the heart being licked.

Unlike its cautious approach to eating humans before, it could now directly attack, even if the target was a human with a dragon, whose dragon was trapped in the sinkhole and could not escape in the short term.

Moving closer to Zhuming Liang's neck, the nightshade vine weasel wanted to smell the unique scent of this human dragon master...

But at that moment, Zhuming Liang turned his head, his black eyes staring at it, as if he had already seen through its act of eating the human heart in front of him.

"Screech!!!!"

The nightshade vine weasel, enraged and embarrassed, let out a scream.

Covered in dark red fur, as it pounced towards Zhuming Liang, it looked like a blood-soaked demon, sinister and vicious!

"Yuuuuuuu"

A long cry, amidst the dense vine network, a flawless white dragon, in its delicate form, darted through the complex plants, like a white star falling from the sky.

"Boom!!!!!!!"

A massive energy impact in the area, the nightshade vine weasel had not yet truly approached Zhuming Liang when it was blasted away by Bai Qi's perfect starfall, and the surrounding ghost-like claws of the nightshade vines instantly vanished.

A dozen small rat spirits, where could they hold back Bai Qi? After killing them all, Bai Qi stood on a branch, staring down at the nightshade vine weasel, which was still playing its hallucination tricks!

"This one should be a match for you." Zhuming Liang said to Bai Qi.

Seemingly disagreeing with Zhuming Liang's words, the ice dragon Bai Qi's figure flashed rapidly amidst the shattered vines, and white streaks of light could be seen darting around the nightshade vine weasel.

The nightshade vine weasel also transformed into a dark red shadow, dodging the ice dragon's fierce attacks, but as a demon, its speed was still inferior to the winged ice dragon!

Blood marks appeared, and the nightshade vine weasel, whose red fur was originally stained with the blood of others, now began to bleed its own demonic blood.
