Chapter XXXVIII: The King's Tomb
Tomb of the Thirty-Eight Kings
Inside the big cave, Ye Yitian quickly shuttled underground, and the surrounding soil continued to expand to both sides like welcoming a returning king.
"Xiaoyu, are you there?" Ye Tiantian shouted into the communicator.
"Well, I'm here, master, why did you run underground?" Xiao Yu traced Ye Tiantian's location according to the signal and asked in surprise.
"It's a long story, you're sending me a signal every ten minutes now, and if I don't respond, you don't have to send it again." Ye Tiantian said and suddenly stopped.
"Understood" Xiao Yu replied, set up the program, and then continued to direct the robot to get busy.
After Ye Yitian turned off the communicator, he looked at a huge stone in front of him, and punched it on the stone.
The huge stone suddenly shattered, revealing the soft dirt behind it, and the moment it was exposed, the earth expanded to make way for a path.
Ye Yitian grabbed a stone and looked at it carefully, just now the stone was in front of him, his ability suddenly didn't work, and the soil in front of him lost connection with him.
Yin and Yang are divided into five elements, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and it stands to reason that stones are also divided into earth, but why doesn't the ability work? Ye Yitian looked at the stone and thought.
"Master, are you there?" Ten minutes passed, and Xiao Yu's pre-set program sent a message to Ye Yitian.
"I'm here," Ye Tiantian said into the communicator.
After the terminal program at the base received Ye Tiantian's message, the timer on it was re-timed.
Forget it, it still matters if the death worm is the case, Ye Yitian studied for a while, put down the stone fragments, entered the battle state, and continued to move forward.
In the interior of the burrow, the death worm keeps advancing, the teeth on the mouth and tentacles rotate in a clockwise direction, and the other rotates in a counterclockwise direction, constantly breaking the dirt like a large drilling rig, the back of the body is relatively small, as long as it moves slightly, the soft soil in front is easily transported to the back, and the friction between the body and the soil produces a strong current, which is absorbed by the skin of the death worm and stored in the body.
In another part of the cave, Ye Tiantian's body turned into a black shadow and kept shuttling, cursing constantly in his mouth.
Ye Yitian was in a hurry to chase the death worm but forgot the direction problem, the death worm's body was not enough to break the stone, so the death worm could only go around, and he was crashing through the stone along the way, moving at full speed ignoring the direction problem, and it was much easier to break the soft soil with the ability than to break the originally tightly structured soil, and tracking the death worm according to the softness of the soil was the only way, but he ignored this problem himself.
Ye Yitian cursed while correcting the direction, and his body was also removed from the combat state, because in the combat state, his body would be greatly strengthened in all aspects, even if he hit the stone, he didn't know it.
At the other end of the cavern, the marching Death Worm suddenly burrowed out of the ground, and the electricity on the skin had not had time to be stored inside the body, making it look like a blue point of light had suddenly emerged from the ground.
After the death worm burrows out of the ground, the abdomen of the body is constantly rising and falling, a large amount of air enters the body, is stored by the blood, and as the air enters the body, the body of the death worm also becomes bulging.
Ten minutes passed, and the Death Worm was more than twice as large in size, but instead of burrowing into the ground again to escape, the Death Worm raised its front half like a cobra and looked at a red fire in the distance.
In the distance, around the fire, a group of college students and a professor sat in chairs, holding lamb in their hands and grilling it, occasionally sprinkling some spices.
The Death Worm straightened up and observed for a moment, then suddenly burrowed into the ground, heading towards the flames, and the electricity inside its body began to slowly converge.
At the other end, Ye Yitian stood in the cave, his body became red due to lack of oxygen, and the expansion of the surrounding soil had shrunk from ten meters to five meters, and his brain was constantly emitting white gas.
Let's take a break! Ye Tiantian looked around for a moment, and then jumped out of the ground.
"How can this death worm be like eating Xuanmai." Ye Yitian sat on the ground and cursed, he tracked it by himself for an hour, only to see the soft soil, not even a subtle electromagnetic wave was captured, not only that, his ability became unsupported after an hour of consumption, the range of soil expansion changed from ten meters to five meters, and the brain also gathered the ability to make the mental consumption excessive, and now Ye Yitian sat on the ground and felt very empty spiritually.
"The professor heard that there is a legend circulating here, do you know it?" A female student sitting around the fire asked the professor who was kebabs.
"Of course I know, Death Worm!" The professor said with a smile as he grilled the lamb skewers.
"Professor, so do the Death Worms exist?" A man with glasses asked.
"Yes! The possibility of this existence is very high, after all, the people say that the appearance and attack performance are the same, one person may lie, but thousands of people distributed in different regions they can't collude together to lie, who eats the mutton when it's roasted. The professor picked up the lamb skewers and said.
"No way, how can there be such an evil thing in the world." A girl questioned while holding a book.
"Hey! Why is there no signal on my phone" As soon as the woman's voice fell, a man's voice rang.
"Mine too, me too" For a while, everyone found that their mobile phones had no signal, and they panicked.
Just when everyone was in a panic, two tentacles stretched out, and for a while everyone was even more panicked, most of the girls hugged each other and cried, and a few bold boys took out the mountain knife and slashed at the tentacles with a roar, but before they could get close to the tentacles they turned into charcoal.
When the tentacles stretched out, they began to glow continuously, and then gathered a blue point of light, which was the size of a thumb at first but the next moment the size of a fist.
The "hum" blue point of light turned into a blue shock wave spread out in a circle, and those who were close to the point of light instantly turned into coke, and those in the distance were also corona to the ground because the current was too strong.
The Death Worm hid underground and stretched out its tentacles, biting the corpse of the nearest girl, dragging it towards its mouth, and soon a stream of blood gushed out from the ground.
Most of the students either approached the tentacles and died in vain during the panic, or cried loudly on the ground, except for the professor who immediately threw down the lamb skewers and fled the scene when he saw the tentacles.
The death worm kept biting with its tentacles in the ground, and the corpse was sent to its mouth.
On the other side, Ye Yitian sat on the land, his body constantly glowing with golden light, if you look closely, these golden lights come from the land.
"The ability level is still too low," Ye Yitian stood up, stretched, and said.
While he was looting his belongings, he found a watch on the corpse of the Alien, which immediately displayed the six letters ABCDEF on his hand, and the F was lit in the middle of the period, which may be his ability level of F, according to his guess.
Ye Yitian felt like a battery when he replenished his energy, but the electricity turned into earth.
Not far from Ye Tiantian, a middle-aged man kept running on the desert, his hands constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead, this middle-aged man was the professor who escaped.
The professor kept running on the desert, and suddenly, the professor stepped into the sand, and the sand immediately collapsed.
"Oh no, quicksand" The professor immediately knew that he had stepped on quicksand the moment he fell in, but it was too late, and in just a few seconds, half of the professor's body was stuck in the quicksand.
"Help!" The professor shouted loudly in the nick of urgency.
Ye Tiantian stretched his waist and was about to perform the "Earth Escape Technique" again, when he suddenly heard a cry for help, and his body immediately turned into a black shadow and moved quickly towards the source of the sound.
"Help!" The quicksand had already buried the professor's neck, but the professor was still crying out for help, and at that moment, a dark shadow passed by, and the professor who was shouting for help suddenly disappeared.
Ten meters away
"Hey! Wake up," Ye Yitian put down the unconscious professor and slapped him in the face.
"Help" The professor immediately shouted for help after waking up, and Ye Yitian wrinkled and slapped again.
"You can see clearly, where are you" The professor looked around and Ye Yitian, his eyes full of horror.
"There's death worms in the north, death worms in the north, hahaha! There are death worms on the north side. Ye Tiantian looked at the professor who had gone crazy, and immediately stood up and walked towards the north.
After eating a large number of corpses, the Death Worm immediately burrowed into the ground, leaving a large patch of blood on the camp.
Ten minutes later, Ye Tian arrived at the camp, looked around, and suddenly found a large hole, this big hole was covered with blood, like a gate to hell.
Ye Tiantian observed for a while and jumped down.
After a while, Ye Tiantian found that he hadn't received Xiao Yu's message for twenty minutes.
It seems that the death worm is not far from me, Ye Yitian was overjoyed when he saw this situation, and he couldn't help but slow down his progress.
Inside the cavern, the Death Worm was still moving at full speed, unaware that it had been followed.
An hour passed.
The Death Worm, which was moving at full speed, suddenly jumped out of the ground, and around the ground was a huge cavern, with pillars hundreds of meters high stuck in the ground, and these pillars depicted the appearance of the Death Worm.
The Death Worm screamed as it leapt out of the ground, then wriggled towards the interior of the cavern.
Ten minutes after the death worm left, a black shadow jumped out, and immediately after the black shadow hit the ground, cracks appeared on the ground, and a trace of dust fell from it from time to time.
This black shadow is Ye Yitian, who has been tracking for a long time.
"It seems that these death worms are really guarding Genghis Khan's mausoleum." Ye Yitian touched the pillar and muttered.
