Chapter 524: The Source

I felt like I was going to vomit when he pulled the soft, sticky earthworms outward, especially when I saw the first few earthworms he pulled out still writhing as if they were struggling.

But after the earthworms in the top layer were thrown out by him, the ones that were crushed in the lower layer did not look so disgusting, they were completely dead, and they were lying there motionless, and some of their bodies had begun to shrink, looking like shriveled straw.

When all the earthworms were cleared, a strangely shaped bump appeared in the hole.

The thing was about the size of a human head, with layers of slender roots attached to it, and new ones were constantly emerging from the ground and climbing onto it at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The sound of the soo came from the roots that were breaking the ground.

Du Kang tried to cut off the new roots with the sapper shovel, but his actions were immediately counterattacked, and when the sapper shovel cut off the first root, some of the roots changed the direction of growth, quickly entanglement the sapper shovel in Du Kang's hand.

I immediately stepped forward and placed the Fantian Seal at the entrance of the cave, and since the earthworm at the entrance of the cave was cleaned up by Du Kang, the Fantian Seal began to tremble slightly, and it seemed to be full of interest in these new roots full of demonic energy.

After placing the Fantian Seal at the entrance of the cave, not only did it not exude a large amount of irritability as usual, but instead converged its own Qi Field, and it was also absorbed by it along with the evil qi on those new roots.

This scene reminds me of the scene when I faced Yi Qingping in Loess Slope, and that time Fan Tianyin also sucked up the vitality of Yi Qingping's body at a very fast speed like now.

In just a few minutes, the breath of the new roots was drained by it, and I watched as those roots grew at an incredible rate, and now I saw them wither at the same rate.

Even the roots on the bulge shrank rapidly.

I asked Liang Houzai: "Does the jade in the hand of King Yelang also have such an effect?" ”

Liang Houzai thought for a while and said, "The book says that after King Yelang got the jade stain at the beginning, he used a big demon to nourish the jade stain. Although the book doesn't say how it was 'nourished', it seems that now it seems that King Yelang probably used the Great Demon's Qi Field to feed Yusheng. ”

The word "hey" is very incisive, and I also feel that the current Fantianyin seems to be eating.

I had a vague feeling that Fantianyin might be a living creature a long time ago, and now the scene seems to confirm my original idea. This makes me very uneasy, Fantianyin has now "eaten" those roots, does it also mean that it sucked the vitality from Yi Qingping at the beginning, which is equivalent to eating a living person?

When all the new roots shrank, Fantianyin released his irritability again.

I picked it up, and Dukang picked up the sapper shovel and continued to clean the roots of the hole, this time unhindered, the withered roots were quickly cleared by him, and no new roots continued to emerge from the ground.

When he had severed all the roots of the bulge, a fist-sized xyloma appeared before our eyes.

It is a nodule that grows from the wound after the root of the tree is broken, and there is a crack in the ground near the xylotum, which grows from the ground.

The Qi field of the Fan Tianyin has not yet fully volatilized, and I can still clearly feel that the demonic qi and corpse qi on the wood tumor have reached an extremely high concentration, while the Qi field of the evil god is relatively much weaker.

Although there is a large amount of evil qi condensed on the wood tumor, it is not the source of the evil qi in the entire cave.

Du Kang stared at it for a long time, and then said, "This wooden bone is part of the mountain demon. ”

I looked at Du Kang: "This thing is equivalent to the clone of the mountain demon, right?" ”

Du Kang nodded: "Well, it relies on absorbing the nutrients of earthworms to create clones, which is a very clever approach. As long as it continues to absorb nutrients and create distractions, it will become more and more powerful as the years go by, and maybe one day it will be able to suppress the evil gods with these new powers. However, it probably took thousands of years just to cultivate this small wooden bone. ”

I stood up, straightened my waist, and then asked Du Kang, "According to Mr. Du's speculation just now, the source of the mountain demon and the evil god Qi field should be in the deeper part of the cave, right?" ”

Du Kang said: "Judging from the growth of the root system, the mountain demon must be in the depths of the cave, as for the evil god, it is difficult to say. However, the mountain demon and the evil god should be very close, after all, the mountain demon must firmly grasp the source of the evil god's Qi field before it is possible to occupy this Qi field. ”

I let out a breath of turbidity and said, "Let's go, hurry up and finish the matter here, the ghost baby is still waiting for Lao Yang at home." ”

While speaking, I glanced at Lao Yang, he didn't seem to hear me at all, and kept pacing anxiously not far away, Fantianyin still had too much influence on him.

I didn't dare to delay any longer, so I immediately left the stone chamber with the Fantian Seal in my arms and continued to advance towards the depths of the cave.

When Liu Shangang came out of the stone room, I deliberately asked him to take Lao Yang a little away from my Fantian seal, but the distance should not exceed five meters.

Now that the evil qi in the cave is getting heavier and heavier, I can't be sure that the situation will not get worse after Lao Yang leaves the area of Fantian Yin.

Especially after we went some distance deeper, I could feel the demonic qi outside through the Qi field of Fantianyin, and those demonic qi were not only pure, but also restless all the time.

I knew that the corpsed goblin was starting to get nervous, and it knew that we were getting closer to it, and that it knew what I was going to do next. But it can't stop us, and the fight against the evil gods also prevents it from focusing more on us.

On the other hand, the evil god doesn't seem to care about a few of us.

The second master kept holding a flashlight behind me, and the miserable white beam stayed on the ground most of the time, but the second master occasionally let this beam shine directly into the depths of the cave.

I don't know how long it took, my calves were a little numb when I walked, and at this time, the second master once again shone the beam of the flashlight into the depths of the cave, and there was a reflection not far ahead.

After the beam cut through the darkness, it left a large spot of light thirty meters away, which should be facing the stone wall, and we finally reached the very bottom of the cavern.

The second master immediately shook the flashlight, swept a few times near the stone wall, and when the beam moved to the top of the cave, I saw the "head" of the mountain demon.

It hangs upside down on the top of the cave, and countless thick roots spread across the top of the cave with it as the center, forming a huge and complex vein.

Thousands of years ago, this branch cut off by the Black King was only about the thickness of a calf, but now, it is like a low tree that grows along the top of the cave, with a diameter about the waist of the second master and a length of more than two meters. I would have barely recognized it if it weren't for the fact that its shape barely changed at all.

At this time, Du Kang came to my side and said to me, "You must get rid of this mountain demon and the evil god at the same time, only one must be killed, and the other will soon be able to control the evil god's Qi field." ”

I nodded.

Even if Du Kang doesn't say this kind of thing, I know it, but the problem is that the mountain demon has been found, but what is the source of the evil god Qi field?

I was worried in my heart, so Liu Shangang came to my side, pointed to the area with the most dense roots, and said, "There is something there." ”

The second master immediately turned the light on the place where Liu Shangang pointed out, and under the illumination of the white light, the intricate roots cast heavy shadows on the cave wall, and in the gap between the roots and the black shadows, there was a trace of red that was difficult to detect.

"Second master, borrow a arm." I walked towards the red place and said to the second master.

The second master immediately came to my side, handed me the flashlight, and squatted down again, motioning for me to step on his shoulder.

I kicked on the back of the second master and put it on his shoulder, he grabbed my ankle, helped me stabilize the center, and then slowly stood up.

The second master's shoulders and my height shortened the distance between my vision and the top of the cave to within half a meter, and at this time, I raised my head and easily touched the roots on the top of my head.

As soon as I raised my hand, the thick tendrils immediately converged directly above me, and the mountain demon didn't want me to touch the red behind the roots.

I lifted the Fantian Seal, and as soon as the roots of the mountain demon touched it, it was like an electric shock, and quickly retreated towards both sides of the Fantian Seal, but the Fantian Seal was only interested in the newborn roots, and did not suck the demonic energy on these roots as before.

There are at least three or four layers of roots attached to the roof of the cave, only the outermost layer is moving, and the inner layers are completely fixed in the rock layer.

"Skinny monkey, sapper shovel!" I stretched out a hand towards Liu Shangang, and Liu Shangang immediately climbed up along the body of the second master, handed me the sapper shovel and jumped down quickly.

I tried to cut the roots on the top of my head with the side of the shovel, but they were so strong that I couldn't cut them off even a few times.

I exhaled and asked the second master, "Second master, can you still hold on?" ”

The second master responded with a smile: "How many catties do you weigh?" Don't worry, you can bear it. ”

I was a little more relieved, and I reversed the sapper shovel again, and sawed hard at the roots of the mountain demon with one end of the band saw blade, dealing with these unusually tough woods, and the saw was indeed much better than the machete, and it didn't take much effort to saw a few gaps in the roots of the trees above my head.

The red hidden in the roof of the cave finally revealed its original form, it was something that looked like jade, it was said that in this completely dark environment, the flashlight should be black and white no matter what it shone, but this stone showed a very obvious bright red.

This thing is self-luminous.

I held the Fantian seal in one hand, stretched out my other hand, and used the technique of "carrying the corpse" to concentrate the black water corpse coffin on my fingertips, and then put my fingertips on the red "jade".

After only a moment of contact with it, I immediately withdrew my hand, and that piece of jade not only had an extremely pure evil spirit, but also a great resentment lurking, not resentment, but resentment, and the moment I came into contact with it just now, the sorrowful screams of thousands of people seemed to echo in my ears.

This was also the first time I sensed something outside of the Qi field by carrying a corpse.

I lowered my head and said to the second master, "Second master, I'm coming down." ”

The second master immediately let go of my ankle, and I jumped off his shoulder.

As soon as he landed, Du Kang leaned over and asked, "What's that red thing?" ”

I returned the sapper shovel to Liu Shangang, and responded to Du Kang: "That is the source of the evil god Qi field, and there is not only resentment and anger on it, but even the grievances of the villagers are sealed inside." Mr. Du, you have more research on evil gods than we do, you can deal with this red jade, and the mountain demon will leave it to me. ”
