Chapter 134: Light
I don't know how long it took, Li Xin'an woke up from his sleep, and what he saw was still boundless darkness.
The black liquid in the lake beside him had completely disappeared at this time, and it was all absorbed by the egg where the ghost-faced demon spider was, and the egg still did not move, and the ghost-faced demon spider was still asleep, not responding to Li Xin'an's call of consciousness.
"The black liquid in the lake is gone, and the Ghost-Faced Spider should be waking up soon.
Ice Python!
Li Xin'an summoned the Ice Python, and the Ice Python spat out the letter listlessly, burrowed into the previous passage, and continued to push out.
The crushed ice is constantly falling from above, piling up in a pile below, and whenever the crushed ice accumulates too high, the ice python will come out and sweep the crushed ice with its tail into the gaps around it.
"It's boring!
His consciousness sank into the wide square in his mind, and he opened the Heavenly Palace chessboard to find that the chess pieces representing Yan Hongyun were all as usual, and did not flash again.
"It seems that Yan Hongyun is safe now, let's find something else to do. ”
Exiting the wide square in his mind, Li Xin'an decided to explore the giant tree overhead.
A few days ago, because he wanted to save energy, and because he was worried that studying the giant tree would cause the ice above to collapse, Li Xin'an stayed where he was and didn't touch the giant tree, after all, it was the giant tree that held up a place for him now.
But there has been no movement for the past few days, and the ice python has cleaned up the surrounding ice blocks, including some ice blocks on the giant tree, so it is quite safe for the time being.
Li Xin'an stood up, increased the energy delivery, and expanded the enveloping range of the light mask, and the diameter of the circular light mask suddenly became more than one person high.
Li Xin'an jumped to the top of the giant tree, cleaned up the spikes, and began to observe the giant tree.
He noticed that although the giant tree was broken, the spikes on its trunk were still spewing black liquid outward, but in small amounts.
These black liquids are condensed from pure demonic energy, and as it flows, it will turn into demonic qi again and spread to all around.
"It seems that this tree has not died yet, and its vitality is so tenacious. ”
Li Xin'an began to search for the roots of the giant tree, but found that the roots of the giant tree were buried in layers of snow.
"The sticks used by those Ice Demon wizards should be the branches of the giant tree in this lesson.
Moreover, this giant tree can produce demonic energy, and if it is not destroyed, it will continue to produce demonic energy, and there will still be animals on the ice field that are invaded by this demonic energy, turning into monsters that have lost their minds, and even new ice demons will appear. ”
When he saw the anomaly on Donggong Ya's body before, he already had a guess in his heart, in fact, the Ice Demon Wizard was originally a human, but he was transformed by this tree and became an Ice Demon.
Donggong Ya was forcibly interrupted by Li Xin'an in the process of transformation and rescued, but a large part of her body has been demonized, and I don't know what the situation is now.
"This giant tree is the reason for the formation of this demon cave, it should have been deliberately planted here by the demons, so as to continuously produce ice demons.
So what is the purpose of the demon who planted this tree?
Either way, I'm going to destroy it, it's not very strong, it's easy to cut off, the key is to destroy its roots.
Its roots are buried in the snow and are hard to find, but my flame toddler is very attached and harmful, and should be able to burn it with a fire.
By the way, I can burn this tree, and the heat generated by the burning of the giant tree will melt the ice above, so I won't have to dig through the holes!
What a genius I'm a genius!
But let's wait for the ghost-faced demon spider to wake up. ”
Li Xin'an could feel that the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider was constantly getting stronger now, and it seemed that some strange changes were taking place, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, and he decided not to bother it.
"What's next? Let's see the cocoon where the Devil-Faced Spider is. ”
Li Xin'an jumped into the dry lake and came to the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider.
The Devil-Faced Demon Spider was now in an oval-shaped black cocoon, and the demonic energy was constantly pouring into the cocoon, but there was nothing special about it.
The system's description of the current state of the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider is evolving (the three-star battle pet has a certain chance of breaking through its own life boundaries and completing the evolution.) )
Li Xin'an gently tapped the cocoon with his fingers, making a "dong dong" sound, but there was no response from inside.
"Still unresponsive? Forget it, let's get some exercise!"
Li Xin'an began to run back and forth in a small area, sit for some exercise, stretch his body, and kill time.
In the process of exercising, the ice python was also taken back to the preparation area to rest.
When he was sweating slightly, Li Xin'an seemed to hear a crisp sound coming, like the sound of an eggshell breaking, and he immediately stopped and pricked up his ears to listen.
"Click!"
Another crisp sound came from the darkness, and through the faint light emitted by the light mask, Li Xin'an saw a crack in the cocoon where the ghost-faced demon spider was located.
At this time, the whirlpool of demonic qi above the cocoon disappeared, and the mind of the ghost-faced demon spider gradually began to awaken.
Suddenly, the cocoon was punctured by eight spear-like spider legs at the same time, and then it was torn apart, and a spider with a silver-white body but a black wavy pattern on its body emerged from it.
It was the Ghost-Faced Spider, which was smaller than before, but also more beautiful, and the black wave pattern on its body also added a bit of mystery to it.
And the face mask on its back has also shrunk a little at this time, turning into a lifelike beauty face, full of seductive power.
At this time, the ghost-faced demon spider has lost its hideous feeling, its appearance has become higher, and it looks more secure, and some people who are overflowing with love will even want to take it as a pet, but Li Xin'an feels that the current ghost-faced demon spider is more dangerous.
Its momentum is also high and low, and sometimes it exudes an aura that makes Li Xin'an feel terrifying.
Li Xin'an tried to call, "Ghost-faced demon spider?"
"Master, it's me!"
It's not the exchange of ideas, it's the real sound, and it's hard to distinguish between a man and a woman.
Li Xin'an was really taken aback: "You can actually speak?"
The Devil-Faced Spider replied, "Well, I seem to have gotten a little smarter, and I can make a sound by changing the flow of air. ”
Li Xin'an pondered for a moment and asked, "What changes have you made now besides feeling that you have become smarter?" ”
The Devil-Faced Spider replied, "I seem to have gotten stronger, and I have gained some abilities. ”
Li Xin'an opened the preparation area to check the information of the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider, and found that the state of the Ghost-faced Demon Spider had changed.
[Ghost-faced Demon Spider (Evolutionary, King-level Creature, Unique, Divine Beast) (Cannot continue to evolve through synthetic cards)
Introduction: A ghost-faced demon spider that breaks through its own limits and completes its evolution, with super stealth, sneak attack and attack capabilities, and comes with poison attribute and ice attribute damage when attacking.
Skill:......
(5) (Evolution) Devouring Growth: Accelerates the absorption of the energy or spiritual substances consumed, which can be used to heal oneself or improve one's strength.
Bonds: Demon, Poison, Polar, Divine Beast]
Compared to before, the introduction to the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider has become shorter, but its strength has been greatly improved.
Not only has it become a royal war pet, but it also has an additional skill called Devouring Evolution, which can devour energy or spiritual matter to repair itself or evolve.
The ghost-faced demon spider also had an extra fetter for the divine beast species, but when Li Xin'an used his mind to probe the information of the divine beast species, it only showed a series of asterisks, which could not be viewed.
"The logos of the three-star battle pet of the Ghost Face Demon Spider have disappeared, and they have been replaced by the logos of (Evolutionary Body, King-level Creature, Unique, and Divine Beast Species).
It seems that the ghost-faced demon spider has evolved and has become a unique war pet, and its evolution route cannot be replicated by other war pets, what does this divine beast species mean?
The Ghost-faced Demon Spider only had the ability to absorb demonic energy after becoming a three-star war pet.
And although the Snow Giant and the Ice Python are similar in strength to the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider, they have never become stronger, does that mean that it is only possible to evolve after becoming a three-star war pet?
But why did the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider only become a king-level creature after it evolved? It absorbed so much demonic energy that it thought it could become a king-level creature.
However, now the strength of the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider should far exceed that of ordinary king-level creatures, and it should have something to do with this (Divine Beast Species) logo, and the improvement of the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider's IQ should also be related to this bond.
In any case, the strength of the Ghost-faced Demon Spider has indeed improved, which is a good thing, and now we still have to find a way to get out first. ”
Li Xin'an deduced a series of information based on the current situation of the Ghost-faced Demon Spider, and found a way to let the war pet out of the system evolution, and was faintly excited.
But he did not forget that the main thing now is to get out of here.
After a moment of silence, Li Xin'an asked the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider, "Is this tree useful to you?"
The Devil-Faced Spider said, "It works, I can feel that it's delicious." ”
Li Xin'an said: "How to eat trees?"
The Ghost-Faced Demon Spider came to the giant tree and lifted its two spider legs and plunged directly into the tree.
The black wave pattern on the silver-white spider legs became more profound, like an abyss with no bottom in sight.
Streams of black gas flowed into the body of the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider along the wave pattern, and the giant tree began to wither visibly to the naked eye, and the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider's aura became stronger again.
When it lifted its legs again, the spikes on the giant tree no longer spewed black liquid, leaving only the dry trunk, tarnishing as if it were dead.
The ghost-faced demon spider said to Li Xin'an: "Master, I'm done eating, and now it's useless!"
Li Xin'an looked at the giant tree in amazement, the giant tree was now only a dry trunk, which could easily be ignited.
"Alright, then let's get ready to get out of here!"
Li Xin'an condensed a fireball in his hand and stuck it to the trunk of the dry and withered giant tree, the trunk was immediately ignited, and the flames quickly spread along the trunk to the rest of the giant tree, and the giant tree burned to produce heavy black smoke and high temperature.
Li Xin'an was not choked by the black smoke under the protection of the light mask, he took out a black pearl, absorbed the fire attribute energy inside to replenish himself, and maintained a state of full energy.
Immediately, he injected energy into the white ball and listened vigilantly to the sounds around him.
Now he is under layers of ice, and the high temperature generated by the burning of the giant tree will melt the ice above it, and it will also destroy the existing structure of the ruins, making it possible for the ruins to collapse twice.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the giant tree to burst into flames, and the ice above Li Xin'an's head began to melt, and water droplets fell from above like rain.
Due to the melting of the ice, the space that can move is also constantly getting bigger, gradually becoming a space more than 30 meters high, and Li Xin'an estimates that this space can now accommodate the snow giant.
But instead of summoning the Snow Giant, he decided to let the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider open a passage first, as the Ghost-faced Demon Spider could absorb the demonic energy around it to recover itself.
The Ice Python and the Snow Giant will be attacked by demonic qi and won't last long, so Li Xin'an decided to use these two war pets again at a critical moment.
"Devil-faced Demon Spider! Take advantage of the fact that the ice is melting and softening, and go open a passage!"
"Yes, master!"
The Ghost-Faced Demon Spider suddenly climbed into the passage opened up by the Ice Python today, smashed the ice with its legs, and pushed outward.
Since the heat caused some of the ice to melt, it was now easier to open a passage, and it didn't take long for the Ghost-Faced Spider to advance a distance of more than ten meters.
But then there was the problem that Li Xinan didn't want to encounter, that is, the landslide.
When the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider smashed an ice block, the ruins suddenly vibrated violently, and the Ghost-faced Demon Spider jumped from the passage to Li Xin'an's side.
As soon as it jumped down, a crack appeared in the passage, and it collapsed, but fortunately it was only a small area, and countless blocks of ice fell from above.
", play big! Fight poison with poison, this is my last chance! Ice Python! Snow Giant!"
The Ghost-Faced Demon Spider kept smashing the broken ice blocks that smashed at Li Xin'an, and its speed was very fast, and almost no big ice blocks could hit Li Xin'an.
The Ice Python uses its tail to clean up the crushed ice that has accumulated on the ground.
The snow giant followed Li Xin'an's side, using his body to help Li Xin'an cover the damage and knock the falling ice aside.
The smoke from the giant tree made it difficult for the three war pets to breathe, but they were all struggling to persevere.
More and more ice water melted, some fell directly, some flowed down the perimeter of the wall, and these ice water gathered into the lake, and soon filled the lake, Li Xin'an could only come out of the lake and stand on a slightly higher terrain.
"Boom!"
There was a violent collapse above, and it was no longer just a block of ice, but an entire layer of ice falling from above.
The snow giant threw away the popsicle in his hand, raised his arms high, and roared towards the ice.
"Boom!"
The ice fell with a bang, and the snow giant was directly smashed and bent over, kneeling on the ground, but it eventually persevered, holding the ice without submerging it.
"Ice python, ghost-faced demon spider, smash this ice!"
Li Xin'an immediately gave the order.
The ghost-faced demon spider climbed up the ice and poked quickly, and the ice python kept hitting the ice with its head, and it didn't take long for the ice to be smashed apart and turned into large ice blocks.
The snow giant tossed the ice from his back aside and straightened up, at which point the ruins stopped shaking and stabilized again.
Although this ice layer was shattered, there was still a thick layer of ice above, and it is not known how many layers there were in total.
At this time, the flames on the giant tree were also buried by the ice, and the flames were extinguished.
But Li Xin'an had seen that the roots of the giant tree had been burned down, and the Ghost-Faced Demon Spider had sucked all its spiritual substance away, so it had no chance of resurrection.
I don't know if this collapse has produced any exits. ”
After observing back and forth for a while, Li Xin'an suddenly saw a faint light on the ice above, which seemed to be the sun shining down from the ice.
"There's light there! It should be sunlight coming in through the ice!
A flame projectile condensed from his hand and threw it at the glowing white area.
The flame bomb touched the ice and exploded, the intense heat instantly melted the ice, and the huge explosion blasted the ice apart
A ray of sunlight shone in from outside, and the darkness was torn apart.
"Haha! Sure enough, it's an exit!"
Seeing the sunlight shining in, Li Xin'an suddenly became crazy and excited, eager to go out from here to meet the sunshine.
The location where the sunlight shines in is the exit, with a diameter of about one meter, which is completely enough for Li Xin'an to drill out.
The location of the exit is about fifty meters away from Li Xin'an, and he can't go up by himself, and after thinking for a while, Li Xin'an gave an order to the snow giant:
"Snow giant, throw me on it!"
The snow giant slammed Li Xin'an up and threw him towards the gap.
The snow giant itself is more than 20 meters tall, plus an arm span of several meters, and Li Xin'an is only more than 20 meters away from the exit at this time.
Pushed by the snow giant, Li Xin'an crossed the distance of 20 meters like a bullet and passed through this exit.
The surroundings suddenly became bright, and the dazzling light made Li Xin'an dizzy for a while.
He didn't see anything before he fell to the ground, as if he had fallen on an ice block, and his back hurt.
But now the pain in the lower back is secondary, the main thing is the pain in the eyes.
When he came out of the ruins just now, his eyes were suddenly illuminated by light, and his eyes hurt as if someone had thrown them into a pepper, and he kept crying outward.
Because he stayed in the dark for too long, Li Xin'an suddenly found it difficult to adapt to the outside sun, so he could only close his eyes tightly, and at the same time cover his eyes with his arms to block out the outside light.
"Come back!"
Li Xin'an recalled the three war pets first, and then released the ghost-faced demon spider and guarded it by his side.
He himself lay on the ground, covering his eyes with his arms, and his face was full of joyful smiles.
Although his eyes and waist are very painful now, feeling the majesty blowing on his cheeks and smelling the fresh air outside, Li Xin'an still can't help laughing.
"Hahahaha, finally escaped!hahahaha......"
Crazy laughter echoed through the ruins......
