Chapter 551: Dead Grass Creatures
In front of him was a barren plain full of withered yellow weeds, and the ground flowed with a liquid dead air, stretching for an unknown number of miles, endlessly, until the end of the field of vision.
Xia Mu had a feeling that the root cause of the drastic increase in the concentration of dead qi in the entire swamp sea might be in this wasteland.
But at this moment, there was nothing left in this wasteland except for the weeds and dead air that could be seen everywhere.
These weeds can survive in such a thick dead air, obviously it is not a simple thing, they are all over the wasteland, making the whole wasteland look like a yellow blanket, it looks a little beautiful, but because of the existence of dead air, it looks a little weird.
"This is already the depths of the ancient realm, and the Ten Thousand Zhang Blood Tower is estimated to be tens of thousands of miles away from here, since you have encountered that ancient demon crocodile before, it means that this place is already very dangerous, you better be careful, don't be too curious. Mathas began.
When Xia Mu heard this, he didn't rush to respond, but after groaning, he raised his head and glanced ahead, the blood in his eyes flashed, urging the Blood Demon Sutra to sense whether there were living beings around.
After a while, his brow furrowed slightly.
The death qi in this place was too strong, which seriously interfered with the Blood Demon Sutra's induction of the power of qi and blood, but fortunately, Xia Mu's attainments in the Blood Demon Sutra were deep enough, and in the end, he still sensed something wrong.
On a closer look, there seemed to be only patches of withered yellow weeds in this wasteland except for dead air, but after running the Blood Demon Sutra to sense, Xia Mu was shocked to realize that among these many withered yellow weeds, there were some creatures that were similar in shape to weeds, but contained huge fluctuations in qi and blood in their bodies, if they had to say, they were like some kind of fierce creatures that resembled weeds.
In addition, at the end of the plain, a large area covered with loess could be faintly seen, even though it was hundreds of miles away, Xia Mu could still feel the desolation, loneliness, and a certain sense of danger in that area.
And the closer you get to that place, the more intense the dead air becomes, and it seems that the source of all the dead air flowing out is there.
Marthas on the side glanced at Xia Mu, frowned slightly, and said:
"You don't want to go over and find out, I advise you to give up this idea, the existence of that place is estimated to stare you to death at a glance, or don't take this risk, besides, although I have never heard of these dead grass creatures in front of me before, but since I can survive in this ancient realm, it must not be a null to mess with, and it is not so easy to cross them to that area. ”
"Didn't you notice that there isn't even a single fierce beast here besides these dead grass creatures?" Xia Mu suddenly asked without a head.
"Of course, but this is enough to show how terrible these dead grass creatures are, otherwise how could they occupy such a large wasteland. Marthas said angrily, he knew that Xia Mu had already made up his mind to go to the loess region to find out, so he ignored the warning he had just said.
"It's awesome, but I don't know how powerful it is. Xia Mu said with a slight smile.
As soon as these words came out, Marthas couldn't help but have a grim expression: "You don't want to take the initiative to provoke them, do you?"
"Do you think they'll let us go safely?" Xia Mu glanced at it and asked rhetorically.
As he spoke, with a wave of his palm, a puppet with immortal-level combat power was taken out of the Qiankun Ring by him, and under the stimulation of spiritual power, the spiritual light in his eyes skyrocketed, and it was activated in an instant, and then Xia Mu controlled the puppet and galloped towards a withered grass creature in front of him.
One person and one staff stared intently, but it turned out that nothing happened strangely, the immortal-level combat puppet was only a few feet away from the withered grass creature, but the latter still seemed to be asleep at this time, without the slightest movement, so defenseless to let the puppet approach.
Even when Xia Mu controlled the puppet to fly over its head, it didn't launch any attack.
"What's going on?" said Mathas, surprised.
"I guessed it. Xia Mu's eyes flashed, and while recalling the puppet, he grabbed a red-winged flying snake from the spirit pet bag with his backhand, and cultivated it to roughly look like a heavy heaven in the immortal realm.
Although the seven-inch part of this two-winged flying snake was pinched by Xia Mu, it still struggled, seeing this, Xia Mu directly cast a confinement spell on it, and suddenly this two-winged flying snake honestly stopped struggling.
Xia Mu didn't say anything to Martha, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw the two-winged flying snake towards the withered grass creature closest to them, and at the same time untied the imprisoning spell that was exerted on the two-winged flying snake.
The winged flying snake that had regained its freedom showed a hint of excitement in its eyes, and without looking at the surrounding situation, it spread its wings and fled quickly in the opposite direction to Xia Mu.
But the next moment, when the snake's eyes swept and saw the withered grass creatures close at hand, it suddenly let out a frightened hiss, as if sensing something terrifying, and the red light around its body swelled, and it was about to turn around and fly towards Xia Mu.
But it was too late.
I saw that the grass and trees that were originally as motionless as dead grass flashed red on the body of the winged flying snake, as if they had woken up, and with it as the center, the withered yellow wild grass within a radius of several miles burst out like the tentacles of the octopus monster, and just a blur, they tied up the winged flying snake that was about to escape.
A hint of horror flashed in the Winged Serpent's eyes, but before it could do anything, the withered blades that bound its body pulled it directly into the withered grass below, and then its hissing stopped abruptly.
In the blink of an eye or two before and after the whole process, a overlord-level two-winged flying snake fell silently.
At this time, Marthus was already dumbfounded, the two-winged flying snake was a creature in the immortal burial ground, not to mention, it was definitely faster than many other overlord-level flying birds, but it still couldn't escape the clutches of the withered grass creatures.
Even from the moment of his attack to the end, Mathas did not see the true face of the dead grass creature, only saw the blades of grass flying, and then everything was over.
However, what made them even more afraid was the attack range of this withered grass creature, and all the withered grass within a radius of miles was under its control, as if these withered grasses had become part of their body.
"These withered grass creatures should be extremely sensitive to qi and blood fluctuations and life breath, once they sense the approaching of living beings, they will suddenly attack, even a hegemon-level fierce beast like the two-winged snake that is good at flying cannot escape with its whole body. However, if there is no life breath and qi and blood fluctuations, such as puppets, etc., they can pass through their territory safely. Xia Mu said lightly.
Hearing this, Marthas glanced ahead, and then nodded in agreement.
