Chapter 489: Watching From the Sidelines

Lu Pingxi began to dissect this strange creature, and then began a terrifying scientific experiment.

First, Lu Pingxi wanted to determine whether this creature had various systems like normal creatures, and then obtained energy by eating.

However, the result of the dissection was that no, this was a monster. It had no blood circulation system and no internal organs.

Tearing other creatures was just its instinct. Even if it didn't bite, it would not be a big deal, but it couldn't restrain its desire to eat.

According to Lu Pingxi's judgment, these monsters would not live long, because they were constantly moving and constantly consuming their own energy. In this case, they would soon run out of energy in their bodies and be swallowed by other monsters.

This is why they are so skinny.

Then, Lu Pingxi checked their souls again. Their souls were in chaos. There was nothing else except desire.

Lu Pingxi used his divine power to directly shatter its soul, and then the monster fell to the ground and was completely dead.

After killing this monster, Lu Pingxi began to study the second monster.

Occasionally, he would return to the bamboo house, and at this time, the fox demon would cook good food and bring out good wine.

The fox demon still did not give up. After she identified a goal, she would work hard unremittingly, but at the same time she also knew the limits. She knew Lu Pingxi's character very well. If she had just secretly put something else in the food, she would probably die here the next second after being discovered by Lu Pingxi.

To be honest, Lu Pingxi was actually very scary. As long as you had the intention to plot against him and was discovered by her, no matter how good your relationship with him was before, he would kill you mercilessly.

This was one of the reasons why the fox demon could not get close to Lu Pingxi anyway. She really wanted to have something happen with Lu Pingxi, such as taking a walk together, eating something together, and chatting together.

But Lu Pingxi was an old straight man, and he would not give the fox demon a chance.

After all, with Lu Pingxi's character, emotional investment was the most unreliable investment.

The fox demon also understood this point in the constant interaction with Lu Pingxi. If he really wanted Lu Pingxi to help him, he had to give Lu Pingxi real benefits. If the benefits reached the standard, then Lu Pingxi might give in.

But what do I have?

The fox demon often asked himself, what is more valuable in himself that can attract Lu Pingxi?

It seems that there is nothing.

We are all cultivators, and our desires are focused on one point, that is, to become immortals.

So even though you, the fox demon, are the most charming demon in the legend, you have no effect on Lu Pingxi, and in fact, you have no effect on most cultivators. It’s just enough to deceive ordinary people.

For monsters like fox demons, if they have cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage and still rely on the power of charm, it seems inferior.

After all, it’s cultivation.

But the fox demon will not give up.

Lu Pingxi spent some time dissecting and studying these monsters, and finally, he came to an astonishing conclusion.

"These monsters, if I expected, they should have been cultivators."

The fox demon was surprised: "What do you mean?"

Lu Pingxi explained: "The physical strength of these monsters has reached the level of the Golden Core Stage, and there are also atrophied spiritual energy circuits in their bodies, that is, meridians, and they are still human-shaped, but some changes have occurred."

The fox demon continued: "In that case, if you die in the tenth floor of this purgatory, you will become this kind of monster?"

Lu Pingxi said: "I'm not sure yet. I guess this kind of monster should be just a relatively low-level monster. There should be some more advanced monsters. I need more samples."

Lu Pingxi left the silver cube, and the fox demon followed closely. She asked: "Are you going to capture more monsters of this kind?"

Lu Pingxi said: "It's a more powerful monster. If I'm not wrong, these monsters should be able to strengthen themselves by devouring each other or devouring living creatures."

The fox demon is actually very interested in Lu Pingxi's behavior patterns. Although Lu Pingxi has good qualifications, his speed of cultivation must be inseparable from his way of action. At present, the most important thing for Lu Pingxi to cultivate so fast is his spirit of exploration and the systematic method of seeking knowledge from the modern world.

In short, Lu Pingxi has his own set of norms, which come from modern human society, while the monsters in the fairy tower have no norms and grow wildly.

The fox demon has been following Lu Pingxi and chasing her closely.

Lu Pingxi didn't care. Anyway, if he practiced too fast, he would leave her behind sooner or later.

Lu Pingxi began to look for more powerful ghosts, but along the way, he only saw some ordinary ghosts. Lu Pingxi called these ghosts ghost soldiers, which means the lowest level of ghosts.

These ghost soldiers have no wisdom. They just wander in this hot purgatory according to their instincts. When they see living things, they will pounce on them and bite them without hesitation, just like zombies, but they are much stronger than zombies.

Lu Pingxi searched everywhere and found a very special ghost after more than ten days.

This ghost is obviously bigger than ordinary ghosts, and his body is stronger. He can even use weapons. At the same time, he can command several ghost soldiers.

Lu Pingxi called this ghost the Ghost Pioneer, and then he tried to catch the Ghost Pioneer and conduct research on it.

The study showed that the IQ of this ghost pioneer is higher than that of the ghost soldiers, and the physical strength is also stronger, but it still does not have wisdom.

After the study, Lu Pingxi continued to look for other ghosts. A month passed. During this period, he found several ghost pioneers, but did not find ghosts higher than the ghost pioneers. Until the last day, Lu Pingxi finally found a large number of ghosts moving in a certain direction.

There are at least five or six hundred ghosts in this batch, and there are more than a dozen ghost pioneers among them. Lu Pingxi knew that he had found a big guy when he saw this scene.

Sure enough, he found a ghost wearing armor and holding a spear in this group of ghosts. This ghost obviously has a high intelligence and can even command other ghosts.

And the direction they are heading seems to be a huge city. It seems that this ghost seems to be planning to attack that city.

Lu Pingxi called this armored ghost who commands other ghosts the ghost general. In his opinion, the strength of this ghost general should have reached the early stage of Yuanying.

When Lu Pingxi saw this, he already had a good understanding of the ecology of the tenth floor of Purgatory.

The fox demon asked: "Should we just stand by and watch, or help them defend the city?"
