 In the next instant, a wave of darkness came rus.h.i.+ng down from the top of the mountain, spreading everywhere.

  Wei Xiao Bei did not look back. He had a premonition that if he was enveloped by the darkness, he would not be able to escape!

  Don't speak! Just run!

  The darkness spread extremely quickly. In an instant, it had covered the 50-meter gap from him.

  In truth, if he did not believe that s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was still worthy, he would have thrown him directly into the darkness.

  After all, decreasing his weight would allow him to increase his speed.

  Luckily, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was now awake. He could clearly see the darkness chasing behind them.

  Wei Xiao Bei felt that s.h.i.+ Yan Kun had tensed up.

  He was not struggling, but simply reacting with terror to the imminent catastrophe.

  “You! You! How could you go and provoke her!”

  In an instant, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could not refrain from cursing at Wei Xiao Bei. From his expression of grief, onlookers might have thought that Wei Xiao Bei killed his parents and stole his wife.

  Cursing at me?

  Seeing that the Dragon Capturing Fist was not enough to make him behave, Wei Xiao Bei's opened his eyes ever so slightly. From his left hand, a crack opened up and tendrils shot out, inserted themselves in s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's shoulders.

  “My G.o.d!!!”

  While s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was happily cursing, he now suddenly let out a high pitched squeal. In the entire world, this was probably the highest pitch voice that a man could emit. It sounded as though a pig was being slaughtered.

  s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's cheeks began streaming with tears!

  If it was anyone else suddenly being pierced by these tendrils, the pain they would feel would not be normal pain anymore.

  Naturally, if s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could not be suppressed by a few tendrils, even a hundred tendrils would not affect him.

  The tendrils that the Life Altar shot out were quite terrifying. If a corpse had been penetrated by them, it would take only a few seconds for it to absorb it to nothing. However, they were simply not objects used to attack.

  They were reproductive organs!

  If the Life Altar was compared to a plant parasite, then the tendrils would be the flowers.

  Everyone knew that flowers were very delicate.

  Let alone s.h.i.+ Yan Kun, who was a demonized Guo Shu Expert, even a normal person with a sharp blade could damage the tendrils.

  Naturally, once they lost any resistance, the tendrils were terrifying torture instruments.

  At the very least, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could only kneel in front of its power.

  Wei Xiao Bei did not care about the damage the tendrils inflicted on s.h.i.+ Yan Kun after digging into his body.

  At this time, Wei Xiao Bei ignored s.h.i.+ Yong Ping's bait.

  Martial arts instructor?

  I don't have that much time to stay at the Shaolin Temple.

  Of course, if he could take away a few seedlings from the martial arts schools around the Shaolin Temple, then he would show no mercy.

  After all, it would be easy to teach those seedlings from outside martial arts schools.

  The darkness was still chasing after them and was quickly catching up.

  30 meters! 20 meters! 10 meters!

  There would be no later.

  Just when the darkness surged from the ground, as if a huge wave was pressing down on Wei Xiao Bei, he struck the ground with his legs and rushed out of the foothills of Shaos.h.i.+ Mountain!

  Bang!

 A loud bang echoed. The darkness appeared to have hit a wall of golden light that suddenly appeared, flowed downward.

  Of course, Wei Xiao Bei did not relax yet. He swiftly ran 500-600 meters away before stopping and taking a look behind him.

  At this time, Wei Xiao Bei saw that the darkness had now become black earth on the ground and looked like mud.

  They appeared to be alive as they tried to find an opening in the golden light.

  However, the wall of golden light that appeared at the foot of the mountain quickly enveloped the entire Shaos.h.i.+ Mountain, as if it was a cage of golden light.

  No matter how the black mud tried to attack it, the golden light remained steady. The black mud started bubbling as if being burned when it touched the golden light.

  After a while, Wei Xiao Bei felt a pair of eyes looking at him from the top of the mountain.

  Wei Xiao Bei could feel that the gaze was filled with greed, endless greed.

  Just being stared at by the gaze for less than three seconds, Wei Xiao Bei felt an urge to run back up the mountain, where there were countless benefits waiting for him.

  His instinct told him all this was real, as long as he was willing to go back.

  However, his body was suddenly enveloped by a circle of golden light, blocking the gaze from the mountain. This caused the golden light to suddenly erupt. It exploded from the base of the mountain all the way to the top.

  The black mud quickly disappeared everywhere that the light shone, as if the scorching sun had melted snow!

  “d.a.m.n! d.a.m.n Arhat!”

  Wei Xiao Bei could only hear a sharp female voice shouting in ancient Sanskrit. In the next moment, the gaze from the top of the mountain disappeared. Even Wei Xiao Bei could tell that the terrifying existence at the top of the mountain had once again gone back to sleep.

  Following the slumber of the terrifying existence, the golden light completely disappeared. Even the light on Wei Xiao Bei's body had also disappeared.

  In truth, Wei Xiao Bei did not have a good impression of the Buddhist Seed that appeared and disappeared on its own.

  The reason was very simple. For a Guo Shu Grang Scholar like Wei Xiao Bei, he needed to have a grasp of everything.

  Wei Xiao Bei had no love for the Buddhist Seed that could not be found anywhere and only appeared at crucial times.

  Naturally, the most important problem was that after experiencing s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's matter, Wei Xiao Bei gained some benefits that gave him the instinct to detect these kinds of things.

  Just looking at s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was enough to explain this.

  Who knows what kind of secrets the Buddhist Seed was hiding? After encountering the unforeseen event of the paG.o.da back in Thailand's Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei was cautious of these kinds of things now.

  After the sharp female voice disappeared, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's entire body immediately turned black and he tried to bite Wei Xiao Bei.

  Of course, this attempt was completely powerless.

  However, Wei Xiao Bei could see that s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was no longer in control of himself but had been possessed by a strange consciousness.

  Wei Xiao Bei could see terror, helplessness, and even confusion in s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's eyes.

  Put simply, his consciousness was suppressed by the strange consciousness, and his body was completely seized by it.

  According to Xianxia novels, his body was about to be taken away.

  Furthermore, this strange consciousness was incredibly malicious, so much so that it tried to enter the tendrils, shocking Wei Xiao Bei.

  Release Electricity!

  Without hesitation, Wei Xiao Bei grabbed s.h.i.+ Yan Kun and shocked him. In an instant, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's black body was wrapped in electricity.

  In an instant, the air was pervaded with the scent of cooked meat.

  At that instant, a sharp woman's voice came out from s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's mouth that kept cursing at Wei Xiao Bei, who frowned at this oddity. He immediately pierced s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's stomach with the Great Spear.

  After the Great Spear penetrated s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's body, the cursing woman's voice became a terrified shrill, but it immediately died out and did not appear again.

  By the time the electricity dissipated, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's body was already scorched.

  At this moment, Wei Xiao Bei ignored his hunger and threw s.h.i.+ Yan Kun to the ground. He opened s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's mouth and dumped in a mixture of Secondary Spring Water of Youth and World Tree Sap. He then pulled out the Spear and dripped some of the mixtures on the wound.

  After this, Wei Xiao Bei then ate the Immortal Quality Flame Barbecued Meat. As he chewed slowly, he checked the battle log and let out a sigh of relief.

 Battlelog:

 ….

 Witch of Greed Raga has woken up and unleashed the Curse of Greed on the host

 ….

 Curse of Greed has been blocked by the Buddhist Seed.

 ….

 Buddhist Aura Barrier appeared to suppress Raga's clone.

 ….

 Witch of Greed has gone to sleep again.

 ….

 A trace of the Witch of Greed's intent has appeared in s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's body.

 ….

 Electricity has been released, damaging the Witch of Greed's intent.

 ….

 Divine White Mist Great Spear has thoroughly eliminated the Witch of Greed's intent.

 …. 

  It could be seen from the battle log how much Wei Xiao Bei's surroundings had become a complete thriller.

  Just imagine, what kind of existence was the Witch of Greed? Once it seized s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's body, Wei Xiao Bei might not have been able to suppress it, even if he released a lot of electricity. Furthermore, the Witch of Greed possessed strange powers coupled with s.h.i.+ Yan Kun's st.u.r.dy body!

  If Wei Xiao Bei had not allowed it to seize s.h.i.+ Yan Kun and decisively released electricity to heavily damage it, he might not have been able to eliminate the intent with the Great Spear.

  In any case, the intent had been eliminated.

  The 2000 evolution points he gained on his status panel confirmed this.

  The Witch of Greed was indeed powerful. A trace of its intent gave him 2000 evolution points which were on the same level as the strange Three-Headed Chimera projection of the Black Church.

  Moreover, the Chimera was a 4-Star Elite Creature!
