Chapter 39 Pollution
"I'm convinced..."
After hearing what Su Xing said and taking a look at the attitudes of the surrounding gods, the city lord knew that his situation was over.
He endured the itching and severe pain from the wound, forced himself to calm down and said, "What do you want, a spiritual stone or a life-span medicine?"
"We'll talk about the spiritual stone later."
Since the negative impact of the 'flesh mushroom' has not subsided, Su Xing's current situation is not optimistic.
He tried his best to stay awake and prevent the whisper from entering his mind, and asked the city lord: "Do you know how to solve the negative effects of the 'blood mushroom'?"
"Incomprehensible."
Maybe he wanted to send Su Xing away as soon as possible.
Without even thinking about it, the city lord replied truthfully: "The 'blood mushroom' itself has no negative effects. The negative effects of the mushroom are actually the pollution of the indescribable biological 'spirit'."
"Pollution?" Su Xing was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean?"
"Those whispers you hear are the pollution of the 'spirit'." The city owner described: "That voice will always want to get into your head, and even control you."
According to common sense, indescribable creatures are existences that cannot be touched, contacted, and cannot be communicated with humans.
But this is not absolute.
Some foods, exercises, statues, and even strange things have the ability to help people 'communicate' with unspeakable creatures.
For example, the statue of ‘Shou’ in Mora Tianli.
Another example is the 'crystal mushroom' that feeds the entire Black City population.
These indescribable derivatives that can be used to communicate can be roughly divided into two categories.
Among them, inanimate objects such as statues are called ‘media’.
Living creatures such as mushrooms and monsters are called "offspring".
also.
In addition to needing 'mediums' and 'offsprings', if humans want to use these to 'communicate' with indescribable creatures, they also need to offer sacrifices.
For example, the "Shou" statue requires human lifespan as a sacrifice.
The 'Crystal Mushroom' requires living human life and flesh as a sacrifice, and it can only take effect after the 'Flesh and Blood Mushroom' is spawned.
After Su Xing swallowed the 'flesh mushroom', he met the two conditions of 'medium' and 'sacrifice' at the same time.
Therefore, he will be contaminated by the whispers of the "spirit".
In the hall.
The city lord continued: "So, the reason why your physical quality has been strengthened is actually because you have obtained part of the power of the 'spirit', or it can also be said to be pollution."
Indescribable creatures possess powers that humans cannot understand.
Monks and mortals, even if they are contaminated with a little bit of aura, it is enough to make themselves extremely powerful.
certainly.
There is a price to pay for becoming stronger in this way.
That is to be indescribably polluted.
In the hall.
After listening to the city lord's explanation, Su Xing asked: "If the indescribable pollution becomes more and more serious, what will be the final consequences?"
"have no idea."
The city lord replied: "Because apart from us heavenly beings in the black city, there are very few monks and mortals who can come into contact with the 'flesh mushroom'."
Each indescribable ability is different, so the way they pollute humans is also different.
Su Xing continued: "Didn't you heavenly beings also eat a lot of 'blood mushrooms'? Why are you not okay at all?"
"I'm not sure about that."
Perhaps he was worried that his answer would anger Su Xing.
A flattering smile appeared on the city lord's face, and he quickly explained: "We heavenly beings are born unable to practice, and will not be affected by our life span... But at the same time, we will not be hurt by any spells, or even
Will be injured by any 'evil' type monster, including Shougui."
Isn't it just a magic immune constitution?
Hearing the city lord's answer, Su Xing immediately understood: "So, it's because of your physical constitution that you won't be contaminated by the 'spirit'?"
"It should be due to physical reasons."
The city lord nodded and responded: "Although I don't know the reason for this, the existence of 'spirit' does not affect us heavenly beings... But it is precisely because of this that no matter how much flesh and blood we swallow,
Mushrooms', physical fitness will not improve much."
The more serious the pollution of a person by the "spirit", the more power the person gains from the "spirit", and the more obvious the improvement will be.
Since heavenly beings are immune to the contamination of 'spirits', the effect of 'flesh and blood mushrooms' will naturally have little effect.
This is also the reason why the Celestial Brothers ate so many 'blood mushrooms' in one go that night, but their strength did not increase much.
"last question."
Su Xing remembered the conversation between the Tianren brothers in the mine that night, so he asked again: "What's underneath the Black City?"
"Underground?" The city lord said in confusion: "I don't understand what you are talking about..."
"snort!"
Su Xing didn't say much, he just cut off the opponent's left leg with one sword and said coldly: "Do you understand now?"
"I understand, I understand!"
Although the heavenly body is strong.
After swallowing a large amount of 'blood mushrooms', the city lord's broken arms and legs could be restored in just a few days.
But the pain caused by broken arms and legs is completely unavoidable.
For a moment, the city lord's expression became even more distorted.
He endured the severe pain and said: "We heavenly beings are not allowed to go deep underground. This is the rule set by heaven... Moreover, we cannot let others go underground."
Su Xing showed no expression on his face. He just pointed the long sword at the opponent and said deceitfully: "There's more."
"Yes, there is more, yes there is more!"
The city lord continued: "There are also those 'crystal mushrooms' outside the Black City, which also spread from deep underground."
After learning this secret, Su Xing had a look of surprise on his face.
Those crystal mushrooms, which are derivatives of ‘spirits’, actually spread from deep underground?
Su Xing was silent for a long time, and then said deceitfully again: "You must have something to explain, right?"
"It's really gone. I really don't know how to get rid of the negative effects of the 'blood mushroom'."
The city lord said in a sincere tone: "After all, if we heavenly beings swallow these mushrooms, there will be no negative effects, so we don't need to know, right?"
After all, the Lord of the Black City and Su Xing have a hostile relationship, so what he says cannot be believed at all.
This comes from the pollution of the 'spirit', and maybe there is a way to solve it.
Su Xing sneered and said: "In order to prevent you from lying to me, I will check all the books and jade slips stored in the entire city lord's palace. Are you okay?"
"No problem! Just watch!"
At this time, I am a swordsman and I am a fish.
As long as Su Xing didn't make any excessive demands, the Lord of Black City almost always agreed.
But this is not enough.
Su Xing used the tip of his sword to pick off the storage bag from the City Lord's waist and said, "Let me check this storage bag, is it okay?"
"No... no problem." The city lord agreed.
