An hour later, the bald creature reluctantly stopped.
Then, with a feverish look in his eyes, he eagerly urged Zhao Sheng, "I don't have much ti left. Hurry up and kill . I will surely grant you a trendous boon after my death."
At that mont, Zhao Sheng suddenly felt uncomfortable in his throat and couldn't help but cough.
Cough!
Sothing was wrong!
After Zhao Sheng coughed, he was struck with a sudden, chilling fear.
He had long been immune to all diseases; he shouldn't be able to cough at all.
Seeing his changed complexion, the bald creature remained indifferent and declared plainly, "Don't make a big deal out of it! This is rely a bodily rejection reaction. Sooner or later, you will adapt to it."
"Senior, do you know what caused this?" Zhao Sheng imdiately asked.
"Heh heh! Asking this now is already too late. The spores of the Devil Mushroom have already deeply penetrated your body. Sooner or later, you will beco like them, transforming into a Crystal Corpse. Heh heh, no salvation!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng felt a trendous shock, and his Nascent Soul Divine Thought erupted forth, sweeping over every limb and not sparing even the tiniest parts.
However, he unexpectedly found no abnormalities in himself.
Zhao Sheng suddenly looked up at the creature, his expression filled with shock and confusion, "Senior, this…?"
"Didn't find it? That's normal!"
The bald creature licked his lips and slowly descended toward the ground.
Seeing this, Zhao Sheng also took flight and followed suit.
"The Spirit Cells of the Ancestral Void Demon Fungus are dozens of tis smaller than spiritual energy particles and they parasitize inside the spiritual energy particles. Unless you are above the Divinity Transformation Realm, you simply cannot detect their presence."
Upon hearing these words, Zhao Sheng's eyes narrowed, and a layer of golden light shield suddenly erged, enveloping his entire body, instinctively blocking the external spiritual energy.
"Heh heh! Kid, you might as well save your efforts. From the mont you stepped into this place, Spirit Cells had secretly entered your body along with the spiritual energy. Now, even if you exhaust all thods, you cannot purge them.
Because a cultivator is based on spiritual energy.
Your mana, your flesh, even every primordial cell in your body, is constantly interacting and transforming with the external spiritual energy.
Unless you die or reach the Unification Realm, this exchange and transformation will never cease.
It stems from the initial instinct of your Spirit Root, unchanged by personal will."
During this process, the Spirit Cells of the Devil Mushroom will proliferate massively inside your body, gradually eroding your flesh and converting it into a crystalline state, until you eventually beco a Crystal Corpse."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng's expression turned exceedingly grim.
He didn't think the creature was lying. Because the facts were laid out right before his eyes
At that mont, the creature's gaze swept over the Crystal Plane Crystal Pillar on the ground, then gestured to Zhao Sheng, "See that? All these crystals are transford from living beings, and have now beco nests for the Devil Mushroom."
Zhao Sheng looked around the Crystal Cave, his voice heavy as he inquired, "Senior Naless, is there really no way to resolve this?"
"Heh heh! Just kill , and I will tell you a way to free yourself."
After hearing this, Zhao Sheng's eyes flickered montarily, then he suddenly said, "Senior, is this true? But your word alone is no proof, please give a younger one so evidence first."
"You don't trust !"
The creature's gray-white eyes glared, an incredibly formidable pressure bursting forth instantly, making the air around them solidify, causing Zhao Sheng's spirit to tremble severely, his entire body, down to his toes, immobilized.
Hum!
Just then, Crystal Peak swelled all over, suddenly erupting again in a vast expanse of dazzling multicolored radiance.
The creature grunted at the sight and instantly, a layer of red crystal shield condensed, blocking the strange hum once more.
Monts later, Zhao Sheng's face was pale, his eyes dim, clearly suffering so damage to his Divine Soul.
He moved his arms and legs, his gaze suddenly fixed on the center of the creature's chest.
At this mont, there grew a layer of finely crystalline particles in the creature's chest flesh, looking like densely packed bumps, eerie and horrifying.
Rip!
Along with a ripping sound, the layer of flesh on his chest suddenly tore off, and in an instant, turned into a cloud of flying ash.
At this mont, the creature's chest was nearly devoid of flesh, revealing a series of gray-white, translucent ribs.
Upon closer examination, the ribs were also densely packed with crystal clusters.
Yet the bald creature seed utterly unconcerned.
"Senior, you..."
"Now you know the terrifying nature of the Devil Mushroom! Even my golden muscles and jade bones couldn't withstand its corrosion; do you really think you can survive on your own?"
Seeing this, Zhao Sheng bowed deeply, his tone very sincere, "Please, Senior, show a way to live!"
"Hmph, if you want to live, just follow obediently!"
No sooner had the creature spoken than it turned and flew toward Crystal Peak.
At that mont, a streak of Red Light erged out of nowhere, entering Zhao Sheng's Dantian at an inconceivable speed, and after a brief flicker, vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, Zhao Sheng had no choice but to leap into the air and swiftly follow.
One breath later, the two arrived above Crystal Peak.
The creature's gray-white eyes shifted, and suddenly two red crystal shields protected their entire bodies.
Right after that, Zhao Sheng involuntarily, followed the creature in a swift plunge downward.
A red luminescence flashed and disappeared, and in the next instant, the two had rged into Crystal Peak.
The two rapidly descended deeper into Crystal Peak.
Along the way, Zhao Sheng saw through the red crystal shield countless Crystal Corpses of various shapes, all with formidable presences, including large Demon Kings and Star Beasts.
The deeper they went, the fewer the number of Crystal Corpses Zhao Sheng saw, and their degree of crystallization also seed to decrease.
