Chapter 224 I want to eat your spirit!
The divine horse raised its head high with an arrogant look, as if to say, I am just taking people to eat two wood spirit fruits, why should I get your king's permission?
The tiger man said, "According to my king's rules, no one is allowed to steal spiritual fruits. However, it does not mean that everyone cannot eat them. We need to see if the person who wants to eat them is qualified first!"
The divine horse raised its right front hoof and pointed at Chu Xiaomu, then panted twice, meaning that it was up to you to decide whether you were qualified or not.
The tiger man stopped talking, walked up to Chu Xiaomu, sniffed, and said, "This man's spirit smells weird..." Chu Xiaomu saw that the tiger could speak and turned into a human form. Although he was extremely surprised, he was less afraid. Therefore, he did not hide and let him sniff around him.
The tiger-man suddenly split into two, and a translucent shadow crawled out from the human-shaped entity, which was exactly the same tiger-shaped entity that had just appeared in front of the two men and the horse. The human-shaped entity closed its eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground, not moving at all.
The tiger shadow let out a sharp roar and pounced towards Chu Xiaomu.
Chu Xiaomu was totally unprepared and had no way to dodge, so he fell backwards. Fortunately, Tiger Shadow did not intend to hurt him. After he fell, he jumped away and walked around Chu Xiaomu to observe him carefully again.
Chu Xiaomu took a closer look and saw that the tiger's shadow had suddenly become very blurry, and the surrounding trees were also not very clear. When he looked at Zhou Wei De again, he had disappeared.
Suddenly, he came to his senses and realized that his spirit body had been pounced out by the tiger shadow. He was in an illusory spiritual realm. In the spiritual realm, living bodies in the real world cannot be seen.
To Chu Xiaomu, the spiritual realm was still very blurry, only slightly clearer than what he saw when Uncle Huai first brought him in. Chu Xiaomu knew that this was because his mind was too narrow.
However, why can I see it more clearly this time than the first time in the spiritual realm? I thought it was probably because I ate the wood spirit fruit.
Tiger Shadow walked around Chu Xiaomu twice, looking very surprised, and said, "Good boy, you have cultivated a spiritual body at such a young age. Who taught you? Or have you been stealing the spiritual fruits from my Beast Mountain?!" His voice gradually became harsh and fierce.
Chu Xiaomu thought that General Bi Ye could tell at a glance that he had opened his mind and cultivated a spiritual body, so this tiger man was obviously a spirit, so he could naturally see it. But he didn't know why he asked this, so he asked back: "What does it have to do with you? What do you want?"
Tiger Shadow chuckled and said in a stern voice: "What do I want? I want to eat your spirit and make your entity in the real world die suddenly!" Then he burst into wild laughter, shaking the spiritual realm slightly.
Chu Xiaomu was startled and quickly took a defensive posture, saying: "That depends on whether you have the ability!"
Tiger Shadow laughed and said, "You city dwellers can only pretend!" He paused and continued, "It's a pity that your spirit body is turbid, and you haven't even cultivated 'soft light'. You are not even qualified to fill my teeth."
Chu Xiaomu felt relieved. He thought that this tiger pretended to be ferocious, so it might not really hurt him. And since he called Shenma "old friend", he should not be an evil spirit. He said, "You are right. My stinky and turbid spirit might stain your teeth. You'd better not eat it."
Tiger Shadow said viciously: "You are so slick! Do you know who I am? Do you know how many scattered spirit buds I have eaten? Humph, none of them can escape when they see me! What's more, you stole the wood spirit fruit that was grown with great difficulty, so I can't let you go easily!"
Chu Xiaomu thought that these spirits were not only very different from ordinary people in appearance, but also had unpredictable temperaments. Although Shenma was his friend and would help him, it was hard to say whether this tiger man would give him face. It was better to go along with him for now and not make him angry, so he said, "We accidentally broke into the Beast Mountain, and we didn't intentionally steal the spirit fruit. We are ignorant and don't know the Spirit King. Please don't blame us and let us go down the mountain."
Tiger Shadow chuckled and said, "Nonsense, my king is a spirit king, Bi Ye is a spirit king, but I am not a spirit king now. But your words sound very comfortable..." He paused and continued, "It's okay to tell you who I am... I am the most ferocious beast spirit that the people in your city call, the mountain rhinoceros tiger that specializes in hurting and eating people! Have you ever heard of it?"
Chu Xiaomu said, "Of course I've heard of it. The Beast Mountain Sihu is the most majestic beast spirit in the Cangmu Kingdom. Not only does it look majestic, but it also has great spiritual power. Other beast spirits are far inferior to you." In fact, he had never heard of the name of Sihu. He just said this nonsense just to win his favor and avoid hurting himself, because once the spirit body dispersed, the physical body could no longer survive.
Sihu laughed again and said, "That's right. Among the seven beast spirits under my throne, the elephant is extremely powerful, but unfortunately he is too clumsy and lacks endurance; the golden bear's spiritual power is slightly weaker than mine, but he likes to meddle in other people's business and is very annoying; the leopard is just crazy every day and often does weird things that people can't stand; the other three are even worse..."
Chu Xiaomu couldn't help but laugh. He thought to himself, it seems that you guys are all pretty much the same. You actually belittled the other beast spirits. Maybe you are the worst one. But he couldn't say it out loud, so he said, "No wonder I only heard of your name and rarely heard of the others."
Sihu said: "We are indeed powerful, but everyone in your city thinks we are evil spirits, and they always want to fight and kill, which is really annoying."
Chu Xiaomu said: "Some people don't know the truth and often mistake good people for bad people, or bad people for good people. I think these people have some misunderstandings about you, so they say you are the 'most cruel'..."
Sihu said: "Misunderstanding is misunderstanding, I don't care so much, I am not afraid of being beaten and killed! But I have really eaten a lot of people's spirits. Humph, these guys' spirits were rampaging in my Beast Mountain, disrupting the spiritual energy, and stealing spiritual fruits. I secretly followed them, and pounced on them when they were not paying attention, tearing them into pieces, and finally sucking them into my own spiritual platform and turning them into my spiritual power... Tsk tsk, that taste is amazing..." As he spoke, he pressed his front paws lower, as if he was ready to pounce on Chu Xiaomu's spirit.
Chu Xiaomu suddenly realized why spiritual arts were considered evil and forbidden in Cangmu Country. It turned out that spirits wandering around in the spiritual realm would disrupt the spiritual energy, so some evil spirits came out to hunt these unruly spirits. Once the spirits dispersed, it was equivalent to killing the people in the real world.
It seems that it cannot be said that committing crimes in the spiritual realm is wrong, because this is also to prevent the spiritual energy from being disordered and causing greater disasters to the world.
