The Game with Fairies
Chapter 44
Ge Hongshan’s eyes were dark as he revealed the true nature of this malevolent entity.
However, the three elders present all looked confused, clearly having never heard of the so-called Flesh and Bone Spirit Puppet.
Seeing the confusion among the crowd, Ge Hongshan took a deep breath and said with a somber expression,
“The Flesh and Bone Spirit Puppet is a kind of malevolent creature that appeared in ancient times and was thought to have been eradicated.”
“Its physical form is weak, yet it possesses the bizarre ability to harm living beings within dreams.”
“Conventional techniques are unable to stop it.”
As he spoke, Ge Hongshan turned to Qi Rui.
“Now there is only one method left, and that is for Elder Qi to personally enter the dream, to project your spirit into your disciple’s dreamscape and confront the Flesh and Bone Spirit Puppet directly.”
“However, this technique is somewhat risky because you are entering your disciple’s dream, so your spirit projection will only have the cultivation of a Golden Core at most.”
“If even a Golden Core cultivation is not enough to overcome the Flesh and Bone Spirit Puppet, then Elder Qi, you might not be able to save your disciple and instead could suffer soul damage.”
Ge Hongshan quickly explained the situation, informing the concerned Elder Qi Rui.
This ancient malevolent creature was indeed something he did not know how to deal with.
If he himself were the target of the curse, Ge Hongshan was confident he could fend off the enemy in the dreamscape.
After all, such creatures are mostly weak and can only harm low-level cultivators or mortals with unstable souls.
Now, how Elder Qi’s beloved disciple had provoked such a long-vanished ancient malevolent creature was a mystery, and out of caution, Ge Hongshan was already preparing to leave.
These ancient malevolent creatures are extremely strange and different from ordinary demons and ghosts. It’s best to stay far away and avoid any involvement.
After Ge Hongshan finished speaking, the other two elders also fell silent.
All three looked towards Qi Rui, waiting for the decision of the elder who was so concerned for her disciple.
On the bed, the female disciple named Qin Haie screamed again and again.
Her right shoulder, left foot, and wrist... flesh and blood were continuously torn away by the monster, splattering blood all over the bed.
The sight of flesh being ripped away alive was unspeakably bloody and chilling.
In the dream, Qin Haie cried out desperately, shouting all around her,
“Master! Save me! I don’t want to die! I really don’t want to die!”
The woman cried so heart-wrenchingly.
Where was the pride and defiance of a talented demon cultivator?
Now she cried with tears and snot all over her face, looking both ugly and dirty.
The silent Elder Qi Rui watched her disciple’s continuous wailing on the bed, pitiful and tragic, and listened to her mournful cries in her sleep.
Finally, she sighed.
“My good disciple, your master will free you from your suffering.”
It would only appear when Li Muyang touched it with his thoughts.
In the dark bubble, the chibi version of the Flesh and Bone Green Garment floated motionlessly. But in its hands, it held a crying doll.
It seemed to be the soul of a woman.
The chibi Flesh and Bone Green Garment held the doll, nibbling at it little by little.
Its mouth was too small, so it would probably take a long time to finish.
Li Muyang shook his head and exited the system interface.
“This Flesh and Bone Green Garment isn’t eating Qin Haie’s soul, is it...”
Although it was a chibi version and looked cute in style, the thought of it eating the soul of a living person made Li Muyang’s scalp tingle.
Mainly because he had been killed by this thing in the game hundreds of times, he had a psychological shadow.
However, the first time he used the Flesh and Bone Green Garment to kill someone in reality, Li Muyang found it to be more useful than he had imagined.
It could be fully automated, letting the Flesh and Bone Green Garment kill the enemy as a common witchcraft technique.
Or he could manually control it, personally entering the dreamscape to chase the target.
It’s just that Golden Core experts are indeed formidable.
In the dream, Qin Haie kept running away, constantly breaking free from the pursuit of the Flesh and Bone Green Garment.
Even when Li Muyang himself took action, it was quite troublesome to pursue her.
Li Muyang estimated that using the Flesh and Bone Green Garment to kill a Golden Core expert was probably the limit.
If he were to go after a seventh-rank... even if he could enter the dream realm, he reckoned he wouldn’t be able to catch up with the opponent.
As for anything above seventh-rank, there was no point in considering it.
“It looks like I still have to rely on myself,” Li Muyang murmured softly to himself, looking at his adopted sister who was sound asleep on the bed, and he sighed.
Qin Haie was dead, and with that, the matter was concluded.
Now, Li Muyang could focus on playing games and using spiritual rice to concoct medicine to save his adopted sister.
When the day came that Li Yuechan completely dispelled the demonic energy, Li Muyang would be able to eat high-grade spiritual rice to enhance his cultivation.
Now already at the Qi Refining Realm Sixth Layer, he was getting closer and closer to reaching the Foundation Establishment stage—who would have thought that just a month ago, Li Muyang was still a small fry at the Qi Refining Realm Second Layer?
Indeed, cheating is fun for a moment, keep cheating and the fun never ends.
Having successfully killed his enemy and feeling as if a weight had been lifted from his heart, Li Muyang took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and clear-headed.
He closed his eyes and fell into a sound sleep.
