Chapter 436: Demon Blood
The eggshell of the hatched insect egg is broken, and the divine sense can detect it, but the energy in it has been absorbed by the demon worm, and the almost untraceable residue is not enough for Lin Yihang's reference.
Now, with the intact and unhatched eggs in front of him, Lin Yihang found himself a little nervous.
He took a deep breath and stretched out his hand, trembling slightly.
Click!
A mana attack, a powerful force, the hard eggshell is no different from an ordinary egg under this attack force, and it is easy to break.
Whoop -
The rich liquid inside flowed out and rolled off with a half-hatched larva.
"Shhhh
The moment he saw these liquids, Lin Yihang immediately gasped.
The green crystal slime, like the most exquisite handicraft, is transparent and shiny, and shimmers with the light of a person.
"Demon Blood!"
"It's demon blood!"
Lin Yihang shouted in a low voice. The green liquid flowing from these eggshells turned out to be demon blood.
On the Xianxia Continent, cultivators strive to pursue the path of cultivating the truth, and the most reluctantly are all for the purpose of crossing the tribulation and ascending, and they are called true immortals.
And there is a legend among cultivators that after ascending to the heavens and becoming immortals, they do not enjoy eternal longevity and are carefree. There is a demon outside the sky, and it is the greatest enemy of immortals.
There is the oldest legend of the secrets of each major sect, the Xianxia Continent was once used as a battlefield for immortals and demons, and after a series of wars, for unknown reasons, the immortals and demons soared and never returned.
On the Xianxia Continent, there are still some ancient battlefields, which have become secret realms, and when they are opened regularly, there will be outstanding disciples of various sects and powerful scattered cultivators entering to find opportunities.
There are cultivators who bring back the artifacts used by immortals and demons from the ancient battlefield, and even the remnants of immortals and demons, which are all priceless treasures.
As an elite disciple of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Lin Yihang has a wide range of knowledge, and the moment he sees these green liquids, he is naturally immediately sure that this is the blood of demons!
Demon Blood. That faint coercion made Lin Yihang feel a little trembling.
"No wonder demon insects can hatch and reproduce, demon blood, containing powerful energy, is the best nourishment for demon insects...... Wrong! ”
Lin Yihang quickly discovered the problem, "There is something wrong with these demon bloods!" Their energy is too thin. True demon blood, every drop is a treasure, and the worst can be compared to a high-grade spirit stone. The true Demon Essence Blood is a priceless treasure that is hard to find. However, the energy of these demon blood is too thin. Even the energy of the lower grade spirit stone is inferior. ”
"It looks like ...... The residue that remains after being absorbed! ”
Lin Yihang stretched out his hand and scooped up a handful of green liquid. The green liquor dripped on the tips of his fingers, flashing with a crystal light, and the energy breath fluctuated.
This kind of energy breath is different from the form of spiritual power.
The reason why immortals and demons are opposed is not only ideologically, but also fundamentally opposite. Also drawing energy from nature, magic will be transformed into magic. Immortals are transformed into spiritual power.
In other words, the blood of demons cannot be directly absorbed by ordinary monks after obtaining it, and some transformation is required.
Of course. It's all abundant energy, and the cost of transformation is almost negligible.
"Demon Blood! Moreover, the vast majority of the energy is almost completely absorbed. The remaining liquid is used to nourish the worms to multiply...... Thankfully, that's what happened. Otherwise, with the power of the demon's blood energy, the demon worm that was nourished would definitely be a high-level demon worm. Even powerful cultivators have to avoid it, and there will be no hope for the earth! ”
Lin Yihang sighed. However, I didn't rejoice too much. Because there's still so much to puzzle about.
Where does this demon blood come from? Why residue? Why is it suddenly appearing now?
If these problems are not solved, it is like an ant scratching in his heart, which makes Lin Yihang difficult to feel at ease.
Even in the Xianxia Continent, every time the unknown demon blood appears, it will be a major event that is alarmed by the major sects. What's more, on top of the earth?
What Lin Yihang is most worried about is that an unknown powerful existence is involved.
The earth is not as small as the Xianxia Continent, and the area is too small. And he has too much to worry about here.
If there really is a powerful existence that cannot be provoked, and the head-on confrontation is not effective, there is nowhere to escape!
A wave of mana swept through, and the green liquid dripped to the ground, and his hands became clean.
Lin Yihang was not in a hurry to collect these green liquids, on the one hand, he was afraid of startling the grass and snakes, and he was unwilling to alarm the unknown existence that might exist; On the other hand, these green liquids are just the remnants of demon blood, and the energy is thin, and Lin Yihang's space ring now has spirit stones piled up like mountains, and these residual blood are a little inconspicuous, and it is not a pity to lose them.
The top priority is to find out the secrets here.
Lin Yihang collected his mood and continued to move forward.
The eggs are densely arranged, flickering with a faint crystal light, brightening the originally dark cave without five fingers, like the glow of the moonlight on a full moon night.
In the large hole that is empty and does not know the depth of the tunnel, it is densely packed with giant eggs like fluorescent insects...... It was supposed to be a sight to behold.
However, Lin Yihang didn't feel the beauty at all, but shuddered.
The number of eggs is simply too large. If they were all allowed to hatch, even if they were all low-level demon worms, humanity would be in danger of extinction.
Lin Yihang could feel that the insect egg pit seemed to be flat, but it was actually going all the way down.
In order not to alarm the unknown existence that may exist, Lin Yihang did not dare to let go of his speed, but tried his best to suppress the fluctuation of mana, and even did not dare to release his divine sense easily, so he moved forward slowly, observing the surrounding situation with his naked eyes.
In the environment of a cave, the Divine Consciousness can certainly probe a wider area, but in case there is a terrifying presence here, the Divine Consciousness can be sensed...... When you discover each other, you will also be discovered by the other party, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Lin Yihang's flying sword has been put away, ready to attack at any time in the sea of knowledge. On his forehead, the mark of a small sword flickered slightly.
Rustle!
A small sound came. Lin Yihang stretched out his hand and grabbed a raised stone above his head, with both hands, he turned over, and he had already stood up, and at the same time, the stealth technique was cast, and his body completely disappeared.
In a moment, I saw that at the bend of the cave, a speedworm quickly crawled out, holding a huge egg in its mouth. Then, the second, the third, and the fourth...... The black pressed a large patch, like a tide, gushing out of the hole and rushing forward.
It's a spectacular sight, looking down from above, like a swarm of large ants, each holding a fluorescent flickering egg, forming a tide of ants to advance.
However, Lin Yihang knew that this ant tide was very deadly. Once they were discovered, in this narrow space, Lin Yihang had to avoid its edge and use the escape technique to escape, otherwise, he would be attacked by endless swift insects, even if there were spirit stones, the mana would not be able to make ends meet.
Whoa!
Suddenly, there was a burst of earth and rocks loosening, and a stone fell from the top of his head, hitting Lin Yihang's head right onto the ground and rolling to the ground.
"Twitter!"
Overhead, I don't know when a velociraptor insect appeared in the road, and instead of advancing from the ground, it stuck its sharp feet in the stone wall and climbed the stone wall. Looking at the direction of progress, it is exactly where Lin Yihang is.
The cave wall is steep, and Lin Yihang's position is worthy of a foothold, and there is no room to hide at all. If you use the Earth Escape Technique, I am afraid that the spiritual power fluctuations will be too violent and exposed.
It's just that after a moment's hesitation, there is no chance of choice. The speed of the velocrat is extremely fast, and it seems that it has reached the front, and the next foothold selected by Changzu is where Lin Yihang is located.
Lin Yihang used the stealth technique, just so that the other party could not see himself, and if the insect collided, it would definitely be exposed.
At the critical moment, Lin Yihang made a decision, and his divine consciousness was condensed, "Soul Assassination!" "A powerful divine sense, condensed into the size of a needle, pierced directly into the forehead of the velociraptor worm.
The majestic divine sense and powerful attack power are simply not something that a low-level demon insect can withstand. I saw that the demon insect's eyes instantly dilated, and its long feet lost strength, and its huge body fell heavily to the ground.
Boom!
The sound of falling echoed in the cave, and the surrounding insect swarms were startled, screaming and scattering, and soon, surrounded again.
Lin Yihang concentrated his energy, held the law in his hands tightly, and was ready to attack and escape at any time.
Fortunately, these insects didn't seem to suspect anything, looked up, found nothing abnormal, and immediately surrounded them, and a group of insects actually grabbed and ate the corpse of this companion who died suddenly.
Rustle!
It was only a moment, and the swarm dispersed, leaving only a few small carapaces on the ground, proving that there was once a velociraptor here.
Lin Yihang sighed secretly in his heart.
Demon insects are ferocious and have low IQ, and under normal circumstances, they will not kill each other, and when there is a lack of food, they will eat their weak companions, and they will eat the corpses of their companions directly.
It's completely normal to have this kind of reaction just now.
This wave of insects lasted for about seven or eight minutes, and Lin Yihang preliminarily estimated that with the speed and scale of the speedy insects, at least thousands of insects passed by.
Thousands of mature velocrats, and thousands of eggs...... That's a huge number.
Lin Yihang, who understands the habits of demon insects, deduced from it that this batch of insects carries thousands of eggs, which means that the insect hive is in the direction of the rapid insect swarm, and the number of insect eggs discharged by the insect hive at one time should be as high as thousands.
Excreting up to thousands of eggs at a time, even if these hatched are low-level demon insects, it also means that either this is a nest of not low grade, or this nest has extremely sufficient energy reserves.
These two points are what Lin Yihang does not want to see.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yihang got down from the cave wall and continued to dive forward.
After the first waves of insects, silence returned to the cave. There is a fluorescent light from a giant egg, and you can see it clearly in the cave. The dark walls of the cave are winding and quiet, and if it were developed into a tourist attraction with crowds of people visiting, it would be very magnificent.
However, now Lin Yihang is alone, and he is full of gloomy feelings. (To be continued......)
