I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 289: Chapter 203: Green Light Shines Everywhere

To avoid causing a stir, Zou Feng bought a straw mat from a farmer’s house in advance.

He wrapped Ding Gang’s corpse in the mat and returned to the vicinity of the Qingchuan City gate.

Disciples from Biyou Palace, who were already stationed in Qingchuan City, had received Zou Feng’s summons and were waiting there for him.

”Elder Zou!”

A male and a female disciple from Biyou Palace immediately stepped forward to greet him.

Zou Feng tossed the straw mat to them, gifted each a bottle of Poison Pills, and then washed his hands of the matter.

Given the intimidating power of the Demon Slaying Order he carried, he was certain the two disciples wouldn’t dare to disobey or try anything funny.

After watching the two disciples hurry toward Cloud Mist Mountain, Zou Feng decided against entering the city. Instead, he rested for a moment before heading toward the location Ding Gang had mentioned—the hiding place of the Evil Gu King Poison.

’Something so important had to be retrieved at once for him to be at ease.’

Zou Feng was also extremely curious about it.

’Could this so-called Poison of the Gu King be even more precious than those giant venomous creatures the Biyou Palace Master raises on Qifeng Mountain?’

’And since Silk Cave also possessed the Poison of the Gu King, why had Teng County and the other disciples never mentioned it to him?’

With his mind full of questions, Zou Feng moved swiftly, arriving ten miles east of Qingchuan City.

He stood on high ground and surveyed the area. He didn’t see a graveyard, but he did spot a village that had obviously been abandoned for a long time.

With a single leap, he descended gently, setting foot inside the abandoned village.

The temperature seemed to drop several degrees in an instant.

’Such heavy Corpse Qi!’

After sensing the air for a moment, Zou Feng realized this abandoned village was actually an excellent place for raising corpses.

’Perhaps this unique environment had brought about some disaster, which was why the village was abandoned...’

Sure enough, after he had walked a short distance, a relatively flat, gentle slope appeared at the far end of the village.

Numerous graves dotted its surface, exuding an indescribable gloom.

For a Poison Cultivator like him, however, one who practiced the Corpse Luo Heart Scripture, this place could even be described as picturesque, the air crisp and clean.

However, with so many graves, none of them seemed large enough to be particularly conspicuous.

So, finding the ”largest grave” that Ding Gang had mentioned would not be an easy task.

So, Zou Feng simply snapped his fingers a few times and let out a few whistles.

Before long, Xiaolv, who always followed Zou Feng secretly from nearby, flew swiftly to his side.

”Help me find the good stuff!” Zou Feng said, pointing to the graveyard before them.

Xiaolv understood at once and immediately flew over.

Its ability to sense various poisons was at times even stronger than Zou Feng’s.

Sure enough, it quickly made a discovery and came to a stop on a dilapidated tombstone.

Zou Feng immediately shot over. Tapping the earth with his foot, he knew at once that there must be a hidden space beneath this grave.

The next moment, he sent out a palm strike. Amid a cloud of flying dust, a set of stairs sloping downward was revealed.

Boldened by his profound skill, Zou Feng didn’t care what traps might lie within and descended the stairs without a second thought.

The staircase was long, and the light naturally grew dimmer and dimmer.

Xiaolv, having flown down after him, suddenly emitted a soft green glow from its abdomen, illuminating the surroundings.

”You can glow?”

’It wasn’t unheard of for insects to glow, like fireflies.’

’But this was the first time Zou Feng had seen that his Gu Insect, Xiaolv, also had this ability.’

’Still, being bathed in green light felt awkward.’

’Green light was unlucky, after all. It would have been much better if it were white or yellow.’

And so, with Xiaolv’s green light for illumination, Zou Feng easily reached the end of the staircase.

What appeared before him now was a fairly spacious secret chamber.

In the middle of the chamber rested a stone coffin that looked incredibly heavy.

Surrounding the Stone Coffin were four humanoid stone statues, like terracotta warriors.

But with a single glance, Zou Feng could tell these were no stone statues...

The next moment, the four ”statues” trembled in unison, shaking off the surrounding dust to reveal their true forms.

’He didn’t even have to guess. They were Gu Corpses.’

It was just that these four Gu Corpses were clearly much stronger than the ones Ding Gang had only recently created through Refinement.

Of course, even if these Gu Corpses were stronger, in the eyes of Zou Feng and Xiaolv, they were merely four pieces of raw material for Refinement.

Zou Feng, naturally, did not hold back. Weaving and dodging, his Flower Hand technique became a blur under the green light.

The reason he used the Shaking Flower Hand again was, of course, that they were deep underground. It was best to avoid using techniques with immense destructive power.

If the vibrations caused a collapse, being buried alive this deep underground would be a serious problem.

But the Shaking Flower Hand was more than enough. Zou Feng quickly refined the Corpse Poison from three of the Gu Corpses, turning it into nourishment.

The last remaining Gu Corpse was ”absorbed” by Xiaolv.

At this, Zou Feng looked at Xiaolv with a hint of displeasure.

Xiaolv had, after all, ”absorbed” a Gu Corpse without his permission.

In truth, if Xiaolv had shown its intent, Zou Feng would have gladly allowed it. After all, Xiaolv was his Lifebound Gu Insect.

When he had advanced to the Fourth Grade, his Gang Qi had even manifested as a giant, monstrous insect resembling Xiaolv.

But the issue was the distinction between master and servant.

’What is given is yours to take. You can’t just reach out and grab what hasn’t been offered.’

Besides, Xiaolv usually sought Zou Feng’s permission before doing something similar.

’But now... it was clearly getting cocky.’

After glancing at Xiaolv, Zou Feng decided to do nothing about it for the time being.
