At this moment, the sky is already dark.

When those warriors took the opportunity to escape, they had already discovered that the situation behind them was wrong, so they stopped to check it one after another.

And after seeing that clay giant being killed by Guo Wei and others. They jumped in cheer and turned around and went back in time.

Therefore, the captain who went to look for people didn't spend too much effort to find all the warriors.

Soon, the surviving warriors gathered around Guo Wei.

Guo Wei looked around, didn't say too much, didn't mean to explain, just said coldly: "Clean up the battlefield, clean up the remains of your dead companions, bury them on the spot, and remember to take away their identity cards." ”

Everyone immediately answered and went about their jobs. After all, they are warriors who have fought several times, and they have long been accustomed to seeing life and death, and they are also familiar with handling this situation.

In a short time, everyone had already dealt with it.

At the same time, the captains also walked up to Guo Wei and whispered a few words.

Guo Wei's face instantly became extremely difficult to look at, his face sank, and he said in a low voice: "Brothers, let's leave now, and strive to cross the swamp in front of us before noon. ”

At this time, a warrior in the crowd suddenly burst out.

"Captain Guo, don't we recite a death spell to those dead companions?"

Guo Wei raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Why are you reading that thing! Instead of believing in that kind of ethereal thing, it is better to believe in your own fists." At least, to live a little longer. ”

Guo Wei said, picked up Huo Xiu, who was still in a coma, and strode forward.

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to obediently close their mouths and follow closely behind him.

And just like that, after a while, the area was empty, and it seemed as if nothing had happened.

And suddenly, a small inconspicuous mound of earth rises in the corner of this area.

Although it was not clear what was inside, there was a murmur coming from there.

"This group of damned warriors actually destroyed my puppets. Luckily, I hid deep enough to not be discovered. Otherwise, they will be killed. ”

"Hmph, if I hadn't been injured while crossing the invisible barrier, I wouldn't have allowed you ants to take advantage. Well, I know where you're going anyway. When I recover, I'll settle accounts with you one by one. ”

"Especially that Huo Xiu, he really deserves to be the person who is in the heart of the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable, and he really has two brushes. This kind of guy with some strength must be very delicious. Forget it, let's fatten you for a few more days, and I'll come back to harvest. Now, I have to find a way to connect with the Soul Eater Demon Venerable and report the situation here to the truth. ”

And just like that, the heave of dirt suddenly shrank back and was no longer to be seen.

Huo Xiu naturally didn't know anything about these. In fact, by the time he woke up, it was already late in the evening.

At the moment, he was lying on the bed. And next to it, stood Guo Wei and others.

After seeing Huo Xiuxing turn around, Guo Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately walked closer.

"Brother Huo, you're finally awake. ”

Huo Xiu raised his eyes and said with a blank expression: "Captain Guo, where are we?"

"Brother Huo, we are in the post station at the foot of Yulong Mountain. After passing this station, it is not far from the Yulong Mountain Pass. As for the dirt giant......"

Guo Wei said this and did not continue. Instead, he stood up and gently closed the door.

Subsequently, Guo Wei still seemed to be relieved. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed some kind of technique that interfered with his perception.

After doing all this, Guo Wei's face gradually relaxed. He lowered his head and said softly, "Brother Huo, as for that clay giant, it can be said that he is dead. However, he may not have died. ”

Huo Xiu raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but question.

"Captain Guo, what do you mean by that!?"

Guo Wei bit his lip and said with a solemn face: "Brother Huo, after you froze the upper body of that clay giant, I and the other two captains worked together to blast it to pieces. It stands to reason that after such an attack, the dirt giant should have died and could not die again. However, when we cleaned up the battlefield, we didn't find his demon core. So, as for whether he really died, it is impossible to determine at all. ”

"Demon Core!?"

When Huo Xiu heard this, he became even more suspicious.

Seeing this, Guo Wei had no choice but to explain in detail.

It was only at this time that Huo Xiu understood the inside story here.

It turns out that the demon race, like the human race, when they reach the realm of demon spirits that can release the demon qi and keep it from the body, the sea of qi in their bodies will solidify into a nucleus, which is also called the demon core.

Correspondingly, the Terrans call it the air core. Although it had already condensed into a prototype when it penetrated the realm. But in fact, it is only when the clutch state is reached that it is truly solidified.

After solidification, these demon cores or qi cores will become extremely hard, and even if the body is dead, most of them can be retained.

Therefore, this can be regarded as a way to judge whether the demon clan above the demon spirit realm is really dead.

After Huo Xiu learned this, he thought of the two demon spirits he had destroyed with his own hands, and he suddenly became puzzled.

When he killed Han Li, who had just advanced to the demon spirit realm, in the territory of the Mu Clan, he did not find any so-called demon cores. However, when he was in Xiaolin Village, he really caught the core of Huai Annihilation, which was also in the Demon Spirit Realm, and completely wiped out its body.

Thinking of this, Huo Xiu immediately asked, "Captain Guo, isn't it necessary that every demon spirit has a demon core. Or, the demon core was able to act on its own and took the opportunity to escape at that time. ”

Guo Wei nodded and said, "Brother Huo, what you said is good. Indeed, not every demon has a demon core. Those demon clans who have just advanced to the demon spirit realm have a shallow foundation, so the demon core is still easy to break, and after they die, the demon core may not be able to be retained. As for the demon core that can act......"

When Guo Wei said this, he raised his head, as if he was thinking about something.

After coming over for a while, he said with some uncertainty: "Generally speaking, demon cores can't act alone. Unless, the outermost body is not the real body of the demon clan. ”

When Guo Wei said this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"yes, there's a good chance that the dirt giant is just a puppet. And that demon clan is hiding underground, commanding remotely. Therefore, at that time, the ground was affected by this and turned into a puddle of mud, which was caused by the release of demonic energy. Hey, why didn't I think of that at that time?"
