313: Solve the worm mother
M City, downtown.
"Pfft."
On the street illuminated by streetlights, accompanied by the sound of flesh tearing open, Li Xiu pulled the Tang Sword out of a skull.
With a muffled thud, the corpse fell to the ground.
The parasite within was undoubtedly cut in two with a single strike.
His body swayed slightly; he had expended too much.
Looking behind him.
On the straight street stretching as far as the eye could see, were countless dead parasites, and the human husks they left behind.
But even after killing so many.
In his field of vision ahead, there was still a vast, dark mass!
He had completely attracted the attention of all the parasites!
At the forefront of that large expanse of walking dead human husks were three Old Men.
"It seems No. 1 was killed by you."
Among the three Old men, the one with the sallow face looked very displeased.
"I don't know any No. 1," Li Xiu adjusted his sore muscles, tightening his grip on the Tang Sword.
The Doomsday Survival System had previously given him a total of seven free attribute points as a reward for completing a mission.
He put all of them into Swordsmanship.
Coupled with the potion Xu Feng gave him before, his strength would not be weaker than a Two-Star!
But the three guys in front of him were all Two-Stars; he had to finish this quickly.
The blade reflected a cold light.
Li Xiu walked straight towards the three Old men.
With the System's prompt, he knew who the target was.
...
...
Another side of the City.
The motorcycle sped down the road.
On the back seat, Monk Hui Zhi kept chanting his monastic name: "amitabha, it was this Monk who took the wrong path and delayed the time."
"That guy in the prison isn't simpler than the Bug Mother. Not capsizing the boat is already the best outcome," Xu Feng said, not in a hurry.
But he still said seriously, "Although we unexpectedly eliminated a great evil, the delay is real. Have you thought about how you'll compensate?"
"I..." Hearing about compensation, Hui Zhi hadn't expected it.
He pondered for a moment: "Benefactor, it is a great destiny that we can meet in two different Worlds."
"Since the destiny is such, this Monk should indeed leave something for Benefactor."
As he spoke, Hui Zhi continued: "When I followed Master to eliminate demons and protect the Dao, this Monk also kept some spiritual arts by my side."
"Benefactor, whichever one you like, just choose it."
Hui Zhi said, taking out three booklets with one hand.
"Ding~ Three Cultivation Techniques detected. Host, do you wish to learn?"
In Ye Tian's voice, the names of the three Secret Manuals were displayed on the System panel.
"Mad Thunder Movement Technique" Low Grade Spiritual Art
"Demonic Soul Descent" Low Grade Spiritual Art
"Three Axes of Qian Kun" Low Grade Spiritual Art
These were precisely the Secret Manuals Monk Hui Zhi took out.
But now, they were instantly recorded by the System!
Moreover, it seemed he could learn them directly?!
"Learn," Xu Feng replied to the System.
Three spiritual arts.
According to the Cultivation Technique Realm divisions in the System.
These were spiritual arts that could contend with Three-Star beings!
How could Xu Feng restrain himself?
"Ding~ The three spiritual arts have been upgraded to the Perfected Realm for the Host. This upgrade consumed 1.5 million points."
"The Host currently owes the System 11.5 million and 792 points."
Large amounts of information flooded his mind.
An indescribable muscle memory spread throughout his body.
In a trance, Xu Feng felt as if he had changed bodies, completing a transformation!
At this moment, he finally understood.
Summoning characters was the real Opportunity!
As for the System's charge for upgrading spiritual arts, Xu Feng no longer felt it was that significant.
Anyway, he already owed so much, a little more wouldn't make much difference.
"Benefactor, have you decided which one you want?" Hui Zhi didn't know that Xu Feng had already learned all three spiritual arts to the Perfected Realm through the System.
Xu Feng lightly coughed: "I was just saying, did you really think I was coveting your Cultivation Techniques?"
"Benefactor doesn't want them?" Hui Zhi was surprised.
Xu Feng said loudly: "Put them away, we've arrived. Brace yourself."
As he was speaking, the vehicle also arrived at the central street.
Looking at the corpses strewn across the ground, Hui Zhi continuously chanted scriptures for rebirth into the Pure Land.
"Bang!"
Ahead on the road, a figure flying backward drew Xu Feng and the other's attention.
"I don't know who gave you the courage to think of killing me in my lair!"
The Old Man with the sallow face coldly watched Li Xiu, who was propped up by his sword, half-kneeling on the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth.
"It doesn't matter anyway, your husk is more useful than No. 1."
The Bug Mother said, looking at Li Xiu's arm.
He saw several holes on his arm.
Those were the parasite eggs it had taken the Opportunity to scatter when Li Xiu came into contact with it.
At this moment, the parasites had already entered Li Xiu's flesh and blood. Through the skin, one could even see the parasites wriggling beneath like veins!
These bugs were drilling towards his brain through Li Xiu's arm!
"You have one minute left. What last words do you want to say?" The Bug Mother said leisurely.
"I've lost..." Li Xiu was somewhat dejected.
As confident as he was when he came, that's how defeated he felt now.
With the parasites entering his body, he was going to die, but his death would be completely without value.
"Tap!"
But at this moment, a hand was placed on Li Xiu's shoulder.
"Benefactor, there's no need to worry. I will expel the parasites for you," Hui Zhi said, as his spiritual energy simultaneously surged into Li Xiu's body.
"You are?"
Li Xiu looked at the suddenly appearing Monk with obvious doubt.
"Benefactor can call me by my name, Hui Zhi," Monk Hui Zhi said gently.
Meanwhile, the Bug Mother and the other two Old men in front.
Seeing Hui Zhi radiating golden light, they were all startled and retreated.
Things were different now compared to before.
Previously, in the parasites' understanding, the strongest among Humans were merely some recently evolved One-Star level fellows.
But now.
They deeply understood that Humans had Cultivators!
The Cultivator who resolved the nuclear bomb with five chess pieces was like a sharp sword hanging over their heads.
Making them extremely cautious now!
However.
Just as the Bug Mother was thinking of retreating back into its kin's group.
The ground beneath its feet suddenly erupted with loud bangs, as if some earth and rocks underground were being pushed aside.
"Roar!"
Little Earth's gaping maw suddenly opened!
Swallowing straight towards the Bug Mother!
Under extreme vigilance, the moment Little Earth emerged from the ground, the Bug Mother, with eyes full of coldness, moved out of Little Earth's attack range.
Looking at Little Earth, the Bug Mother felt a chilling murderous intent in its heart.
Humans' Cultivators were one thing.
But a low-level bug dared to attack it!
"Roar!" Compared to the Bug Mother's anger, Little Earth was the most enraged.
It still remembered that this guy had previously brought a group of people to tie it up and release it outside the City when it was in the suburbs!
It bit down towards the Bug Mother again!
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, the Bug Mother slightly shifted its position again.
However.
Just as the Bug Mother moved out of Little Earth's biting range.
A person stepping on lightning and flint, like a Man Niu carrying lightning, quickly arrived behind the Bug Mother in a few strides!
"What?" The Bug Mother barely managed to look behind it.
But it was difficult to discern the opponent's details.
What kind of speed was this?!
"Bang~"
An axe was swung out, and the Bug Mother was directly sent flying high by Xu Feng!
And just like that, it was completely swallowed by Little Earth's ferocious maw!
"No!"
Among the countless parasites, screams erupted one after another.
The dense crowd surged forward!
Xu Feng unhurriedly rested the axe on his shoulder.
A few seconds later...
"Rustle rustle~~"
On the entire street, the countless parasites controlling Humans fell to the ground one after another!
Only the figure carrying the axe and Little Earth beside him formed a rugged picture!
"This is really weak," Xu Feng shook his head.
Compared to the guy he met in the prison.
He also understood that that guy was definitely more Advanced than this Bug Mother!
He didn't know if he would become a great enemy of Humans in the future.
"Ding~ Congratulations, Host, for correcting the plot."
[Reward: 1,500,792 points. Host's current points: -10 million.]
[Reward: Life Peak value increased by 500. Current life Peak value: 606 (Three-Star)]
[Reward: Three-Star Character Summoning Card x 100.]
Item: Three-Star Character Summoning Card x 100
Description: Using this card, the Host can summon 100 Three-Star characters.
It must be said that the System's rewards were relatively generous.
Just the character summoning card alone made Xu Feng extremely excited.
The only thing that was difficult to accept was the points.
Xu Feng hadn't expected that even after correcting the plot, he still owed a debt of up to ten million!
At this point, he already had the intention of becoming a deadbeat.
Points borrowed based on skill, why pay them back!
Anyway, he couldn't pay it back.
System Space.
Regarding Xu Feng's mental activity, Ye Tian twitched his mouth: "The first Host who wants to default on a debt, this needs some education."
"Isn't it because you're too dark? Your Host was originally such an upright person," Xiao Zao on the side chimed in.
"Am I dark?" Ye Tian looked at the Forest King beside him.
The Forest King hadn't finished yawning and quickly shook his head.
He looked towards the God on the other side. Her beautiful eyes slowly closed, as if she hadn't heard.
"Ding~ Daily Benevolent Person mission has been updated. Host, do you wish to claim it?"
Xu Feng's thoughts were pulled back by the System.
Speaking of which.
He had already completed the previous Daily Benevolent Person mission.
He hadn't expected the second one to update so quickly.
"Claim."
Mission: Pay Your Debts
Success Reward: None
Failure Punishment: Debt Collector Envoy
Time Limit: One day
Description: The Host owes too much. Please pay it off within one day. If you don't pay your debt, Heaven will strike you with thunder!
Xu Feng hadn't expected this could also be a mission?!
No reward for success, and what is that Debt Collector Envoy for failure?
Over ten million points. Calculating it, he would need to produce over 200,000 One-Star creature corpses, and within one day!
How could this possibly be completed?
He was definitely going to face that Debt Collector Envoy!
"You are?"
Li Xiu's voice, trembling with some uncertainty, came from behind Xu Feng.
Xu Feng paused slightly and turned around without concealment.
The moment he saw Xu Feng's face, Li Xiu was greatly shaken: "It really is you, Teacher Xu!"
"Ding~ A One-Star Peak evolver with 100% worship detected. Host, do you want to take him as a subordinate?"
