Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Heart of the Mountains
Deep in the Misty Mountains, within a nameless canyon, it is roughly located on the side of the mountain where the highest pass is located, but it is difficult to locate accurately, because the environment of this place is treacherous enough, surrounded by mountains and strange rocks!
A tributary of an unknown river winds through a canyon that is so shallow that even fish can't swim, and the murmuring sound of the water is more like a large group of reptiles migrating en masse. The wisps of silk against www.biquge.info the moss of the pen and the moss are as colorful as the green of the bamboo leaves, as if the shallow stream is also clothed with craggy wisps.
A huge demon slowly walked towards a peak leaning on the cliff.
If ordinary people get here, they can probably only see the humps that overlap and overlap each other, sighing at the miracle of natural creation. With the help of the demon clone's body size of more than ten meters, as well as the demon's vision that was completely different from that of humans, especially after strengthening the sense of qi, Ling Qi quickly discovered the abnormality of the shorter "mountain"!
It clearly has the appearance of a human! It's just that its hands and feet are close together and tilted again, so that it looks more like the sub-peak of a dangerous mountain!
Four hundred and seventy-eight meters!
Ling Qi quickly came up with this data, which was much shorter than he had estimated, he had thought that the so-called mountain giants should be more than a thousand meters tall, which was comparable to the majesty he had captured earlier!
"Kerala!"
At this moment, as the trickle-down breath in front of him became weaker, the gray-black rocks on the sloping mountain peak began to fall off in large areas!
The momentum of the rockslide is not small, even if it may not be so amazing when it reaches a few thousand meters away, but in this canyon it is extremely huge, and the ground shakes the mountains!
Ling Qi's heart moved, and then he looked at the place where the fallen mountain peak and another more majestic cliff were bonded, and he suddenly felt a little surprised.
No wonder it looks so much like a mountain! It is indeed turning in that direction!
It's going to die.
He who was born of the earth will return to the earth!
When this mountain giant dies completely, it will probably really turn into a mountain that will never move again.
Maybe it was originally seven or eight hundred meters high, but it collapsed and melted, and it was only as it is now!
Feeling the pervasive sense of repulsion in the air, Ling Qi sped up his movements, and the huge demon also made the ground in a small area shake slightly, and its weight should be heavier than it looked.
At the risk of being discovered early, he didn't come here to see how an endangered species could disappear completely!
Demons have some innate abilities, and discerning the breath of the soul is only one of them, just as dragons are born to smell gold and silver treasures, and at the same time, they can also use dragon power to deter those weak lives, and powerful species will always have several practical talents.
In addition to being able to discern the breath of the soul, the demon is also extremely sensitive to the perception of energy fluctuations.
Perhaps most of the higher-ranking creatures have similar methods, just as demons can use demons to deter people, but its qualities are especially evident in this regard.
He didn't actually smell the soul from it, and the fading thing was more like some kind of "momentum", a mountain, a momentum!
Maybe they were originally a group of puppet creatures, born on the earth and destroyed on the earth, they are the puppets of heaven and earth, so they have no soul at all, and they don't need souls, and it is the whole world that governs their behavior!
He couldn't harvest his soul, but he resolutely chose to dispatch the demon clone, and even temporarily handed over his body to the care of his teammates he didn't trust, because Ling Qi smelled something else!
Something that can move can be without a soul, but it must not be without power, without a core of energy!
Rumble!
Kicking the ground violently, the demon more than ten meters high bounced out like a cannonball!
It still couldn't fly, because it was filled with majestic magical energy, and it was very obscure. This time, magical energy has not been completely excluded from the world, but the rules limit the conditions for their use.
Fortunately, the material structure of this world is very stable, and this demon clone can even exert its full strength and use it to perform a single action, such as jumping with all his strength and swinging with all his strength, without worrying that the excess power will make the ground and space unbearable.
The pits that appear in the ground prove that even in this world, the power of the demon clone is beyond common sense.
Subject to factors such as gravity, it can no longer jump hundreds of kilometers like the radiation plane, but after all, it is no longer powerful and has nowhere to go!
At a distance of more than 1,000 meters, it will land three times, and if the demon clone appears outside the Misty Mountains, it will be wiped out by a combination of wizards like Gandalf, it is too strong, it is violated, it is a bug, and it is not even a native legendary species!
The perennial mist of the Misty Mountains has been proven to be completely harmless to humans, such as the wind and snow that rise into the clouds all year round.
Now, Ling Qi further determined that this kind of harmless mist to humans actually had a strong effect of isolating the aura.
This allows it to temporarily only need to resist the rejection of the forces of the world, without worrying about alerting the opposing faction in advance!
From a distance, the imposing demon clone was like a monkey scurrying up a sloping mountain dozens of times taller than it, and this red-skinned monkey swept away a large amount of earth and rocks falling from the sky with a wave of his hand, showing that it was far superior to ordinary monkeys.
Rumble!
Once again, it smashed like a cannonball on a platform that was only five meters square, and the platform sank a foot, and Ling Qi knew that he was very close to his target!
The most rational thing to do is that he should wait for the aura and momentum he can perceive to completely disappear, and then conduct a search, trying to steal some kind of energy source that is not yet certain to exist.
But who can guarantee that at the moment of its complete death, the unknown energy source will not change in some way, such as turning into a pile of stones in an instant?
This kind of behemoth, if it had a soul, would inevitably be one hundred hundred thousand times larger than a human being, and after devouring it, it would instantly allow Ling Qi's soul to evolve into another level of existence.
This is the wrong approach, but if there is a chance to ascend to the sky in one step, even Ling Qi can't resist that temptation, because it represents extraordinary strength, and it is evolution!
Fortunately or unfortunately, this thing is not a living thing, it has no soul.
Then its core, will be the only thing of value!
To drive such a huge body, what a wealth of energy must be contained in its core! Even if it can't absorb and devour, it can blow up an entire mountain into the sky!
The tyrannical kick kicked a hole in the mountain wall in front of him, and the devil's claws tore and destroyed the hole several meters in size into a huge cave!
Of course, the demon clone doesn't have such strength, at least not now. This shows that the seemingly solid peak, at least in this section, is actually hollow!
It's like the caves and karst caves that occasionally appear on ordinary mountains, but Ling Qi prefers to believe that this is its chest, hiding its heart!
Nothing can hide from the devil, as long as there is still breath to be revealed!
Boom! Boom!
Destroying stones and pillars all the way, less than a hundred meters deep, Ling Qi was attracted by the environment in front of him!
Contrary to its absolutely natural appearance and natural decomposition at death, the place in front of it should be the place that houses the energy core of the mountain giant, and it is filled with a rich and holy breath of life, and the traces of the axe and chisel are unobstructed!
Ling Qi's soul was no worse than the original soul of this demon clone, it was already far beyond ordinary humans, and even ordinary heroes!
It is not a sound in the ordinary sense, let alone a ballad, but a music of life and a score of creation!
Ling Qi could hear it, but he couldn't understand it, he could only be sure that it didn't look like it was formed naturally!
So, is it a miracle of nature, or is it some kind of life created by the Creator, or is it a puppet of the Veras?
Ling Qi tentatively exposed the devil's claws to the blue and white light particles, and found that there was no pain such as burning, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
At the very least, it shouldn't have been created by the gods of the Light Sequence.
In all known legends, demons and gods are opposites, and darkness and light are absolutely incompatible.
But why could he hear the "voice" of creation in it? And these particles of light were indeed filled with the purest life energy!
Is it true that the realm of the Creator is higher than that of God, and can tolerate all that is good or ugly?
"It doesn't matter!"
Ling Qi said to himself, striding into the last afterglow of life!
If it weren't for his preconceived impression, Ling Qi would never have believed that in such a cave, the stone pillars erected haphazardly, and the irregular fluorite stones on the top of the stone pillars, which were dozens of square meters larger than a basin, would be what he was looking for!
The blue-white particles of light emitted by these things made the demon even more disgusted by this space that was not very large for it, it did not like this pure life energy!
When you hate something or something for too long, even if the subject changes at the end, the disgust will not go away, this is prejudice!
Harnessing the demon clone, he tried to pick up the first fluorite, just like an adult picking up an egg.
He could feel the mountain visibly begin to tremble, but it quickly vanished, along with the faint power that had guided him and the blue-white particles of light that filled the surroundings.
Night vision is nothing to demons, and besides, it is only those energy-rich light particles that pass with the life of the mountain giants, not all the light, and the rest of the fluorites are still glowing, but there is no energy overflow.
Ling Qi breathed a sigh of relief, the fluorite was still glowing, which meant that his harvest would not be just one or two.
A few minutes later, when he picked up all the stones, swallowed all these things rich in life energy into his stomach with nausea, and put them away for the time being, the cue of the master was long overdue!
"Ding, congratulations on obtaining the special item: Heart of the Mountain*1. ”
"Heart of the Mountains: Evolved from the unique overture of the one god Iluvita, in the midst of Enu's great movement, from the three melodies. Mirko tried to tamper with this, but as he had always tried, he failed again. He shattered the main melody of the overture, which was added at the end, but it eventually led to the emergence of the mountain giants. This is the same movement he tried to confront against, but instead the three melodies of the big movement constitute a complete real world, and the beautiful originally needs to be contrasted with the ugly, and the creation of destruction will only be meaningful. ”
"Bonus tip: nothing is perfect, the heart of the mountains is like that, and so is the world. Also, who told you that the heart of the mountain is the heart of a whole stone?"
