"In the past thousand years, I have never heard of anyone using medicinal fertilizers to promote the growth of dark spirit plants. I thought this cruel method had long been extinct, but I didn't expect to see it here."
He Xi frowned and was about to speak when suddenly, a faint voice came from behind him.
"Please... please... kill me... please... kill me..."
He Xi turned his head suddenly and saw a girl who was less than 20 years old lying on the stone bed in the opposite room.
The girl was naked, with her long, dry and messy hair spread out on the stone bed.
Her body was covered with blue-black mushroom-like plants. Her originally smooth skin had now turned into the soil of these "mushrooms", emitting a rotten and foul smell.
The roots of those spiritual plants were deeply rooted in her body. Some were stirring her internal organs and dantian, while others were entangled on her slender skeleton, consuming her life bit by bit.
He Xi reached out her hand and wanted to check on the girl, but the little golden dragon stopped her.
"Boss, don't waste your energy. These people can't be saved."
The little golden dragon sighed and said in a deep voice: "These dark spiritual plants are directly planted in these people's bodies, and then they slowly germinate with the help of the nutrients in these warriors' bodies."
"Once these spiritual plants sprout, their life breath will merge with the spiritual plants, and the heart meridians throughout their bodies will be replaced by the root locks of these spiritual plants. This is also the reason why they can still breathe even though their mouths and noses are blocked by spiritual plants."
"So, even if you remove these spiritual plants now, they won't be able to survive. And if you don't remove the spiritual plants, they will slowly be absorbed by these spiritual plants and eventually die."
At this point, Xiao Jinlong showed a look of pity on his face. "These fertilizers are actually equivalent to a dead person. As for when they will lose their vitality, it is only a matter of time."
"Moreover, if they died because their life force was sucked dry by the dark spirit plants, it would mean that their souls were completely destroyed, and they wouldn't even have the chance to reincarnate. Sigh... Boss, it would be the best ending for him if you killed them."
Listening to the little golden dragon's words, He Xi fell into silence.
But the girl reached out to Hexi again, shouting intermittently, "Please... kill us..."
"Rather than living like this... I'd rather die... and be free..."
The light in Hexi's eyes gradually became cold and steady, and the purple vine in his hand swayed slowly.
She looked into the girl's eyes and nodded solemnly, "Okay, I promise you."
As soon as the words fell, a cluster of light golden flames suddenly shot out from above the purple vines. The vines stretched forward, and the light golden flames touched the spiritual plant on the girl's body.
Those dark spiritual plants trembled violently, as if they were frightened and wanted to escape.
However, the light golden flames were so powerful that they engulfed the blue-black plants and the girl in almost the blink of an eye.
The golden flames enveloped the girl's body. She was about to die, but a relieved smile appeared on her face. She looked at He Xi with her bright eyes and said with her lips gently, "Thank you!"
A moment later, the girl on the stone bed was burned into a skeleton, and the dark plant also disappeared without a trace.
However, Hexi did not stop.
Purple vines flew out from her body, spreading all over the basement with golden flames. (To be continued)
