Chapter 45: Elite Abyss Hidden Demon
The icy river washed over Zode's body and washed his soul, making him feel a biting cold.
This is the first feeling when Zuode's consciousness returns to the physical body, and it is very bad.
The waters of the River Styx had corrupted his flesh, making it even more fragile. Zuode felt that something was wrong with his whole body. Fortunately, the consciousness is still very clear. It seems that the Stone Eye Space is indeed able to evade the purification of the River Styx.
As time passed, Zode became more and more aware of the mystery and power of the stone eye. Even sometimes, Zode thinks that Stoneeye must be from Astor. It's just that Zuode doesn't have enough evidence, and all the knowledge systems don't have any records of stone eyes.
However, there is no doubt about the strength of the stone eye. Looking at those soul gems and stored soul energy in the stone eye space. Zuo De was full of emotion.
The stone eye space can place spiritual bodies, Zuo De knew before. In fact, most demons have similar abilities. They are able to place captured souls in their own sea of consciousness. They are transformed into material form when needed.
However, Stoneeye is even more powerful. In addition to its detection capabilities, it is even able to generate a special stone eye space in the Sea of Knowledge. There, all spirit bodies can be arbitrarily transformed by the Stone Eye.
Zod was lying at the bottom of the River Styx, completely different from the blood-red he looked on the shore. The bottom of the River Styx is surrounded by clear and translucent water waves, and there is no other color in sight. Being in it, it's like being immersed in the blue sky, without a trace of pollution.
The only thing that was incongruous with the enchanting scenery was the biting chill on his body, and the endless abyssal eggs around him—it was only when he got stuck between a few eggs that Zode stopped drifting.
These disgusting eggs are shaped soul fragments that, when washed out of the River Styx, hatch the infamous Abyssal Worms of the Astor world.
Zod didn't alarm these dormant eggs, it endured a terrible chill, which was the soul purification carried out by Styx sensing the existence of Zod's consciousness. Zode crawled along the dense eggs towards the shore.
From the eggs around it, it can be seen that this place is very close to the shore. Despite this, the River Styx is not buoyant in any way. With the exception of a few special creatures, no living creature is able to swim in the River Styx.
Zuo De was also weak in his limbs, and with the support of the active giant sword Kun and the chela blade, he used the eggs around him as a fulcrum, and then moved towards the shore step by step.
After a long time, Zuode finally saw the surface of the water, but as soon as he showed his head, a huge iron hammer, with a vicious wind, swept over Zuode's head. Startling him, he dives back into the river again.
When Zuode changed his position and showed his head again, he could see the scene on the shore clearly.
It's literally turned into a slaughterhouse!
Countless lower-level demons gathered on the banks of the River Styx, slaughtering all the Abyssal Worms in a frenzy. As far as Zuo De's eyes could see, he saw hundreds of Abyssal Barbarians, Abyssal Demons, and Abyss War Demons, as well as many more Bull Demon species such as Demon Demons, Unicorn Demons, and Dead Skin Demons.
These lower-level demons don't just devour the Abyss Worms, they often fight each other. Generally speaking, the Olgas demons are a little more cunning, and they will cooperate with each other to hunt down the rampaging Bahn demons. The larger and more powerful Bab Demons are always loners, usually concluding a sphere of influence and then killing any other demons that invade.
And as these rampaging lower-level demons greedily devoured, the number of abyssal worms also decreased at a rate visible to the naked eye. This creates even more conflict between demons. Fighting is everywhere.
On the shore where Zuo De appeared earlier, a really mad abyss war demon was fighting with a one-horned demon, and Zuo De was almost affected.
Zode quickly checked his state.

Since he didn't choose to transform into a demon, Zuode's attributes didn't improve much after he advanced. However, the talent adds a Devouring Evolution of its own, an ability unique to Advanced Worms that can devour an unresisting creature with all of its characteristics.
It looks like a great talent, but the only indication is that it can only be used once.
Moreover, the prey that can be captured by oneself obviously indicates a weaker talent than oneself. Unless there is a particularly rare ability, this ability to devour evolution is meaningless—this talent is somewhat chicken in Zuode's opinion.
To make matters worse, due to the long-term immersion of the flesh in the River Styx, the armor that evolved on the body and the armor that the goblins later transplanted were all purified by the River Styx. The current Zuode is very fragile.
As if noticing Zod emerging from the River Styx, several slender abyssal lurkers quietly lurked. It was a slender, lanky demon that looked like a human skeleton, with pale skin and no hair. Many demons are fooled by their appearance and end up dying at their hands - an agile and aggressive demon.
Not wanting to provoke these difficult fellows for the time being, Zod dived into the River Styx again and disappeared.
By the time Zode quietly surfaced the river again, there weren't many demons around. He chose a secluded corner, where the number of worms was so small that no demons had noticed it yet.
Immediately after going ashore, Zode went into a stealth state and left the dangerous beach. It wasn't until he was far away from the riverbank that Zode climbed to the top of a huge strange tree this time that he had the time to observe the plane properly.
Compared to the lava land where Zod was born before, the environment here is much better. It is surrounded by low hills covered with a variety of twisted and strange plants and shrubs. A few sporadic demons are wandering around, looking for possible prey.
And beyond, there is a forest with no end in sight. Strangely, the plants near Zode of this forest look completely different. They are more like ordinary trees on the main surface, tall and straight, with lush foliage and lush greenery. There is no distortion or distortion at all.
It's an entirely new plane, bearing no resemblance to any of the known planes in Zod's memory bank, and it looks like a world that hasn't been fully assimilated by the Abyss.
"The air seems to be very active, and a medium-sized plane ......," Zode observed everything around him,
"Well, the presence of the Abyssal Will is faint. Is it the whole world that is resisting its assimilation?"
"But it's useless, the will of the abyss is already intertwined with the will of the world, and it can no longer be separated, it will still become a member of the endless abyss after all. ”
"All kinds of low-level demons are hunting around, and no mid-level or higher demons have been found, so it looks like they should have been randomly teleported. Generally speaking, mid-level demons are very cautious about disorderly teleportation......"
Zuode stood quietly on the top of the tree, analyzing this new level of information.
At that moment, he slammed his wings open and flew into the air. A swarthy dagger pierced deep into the place where Zuode had just been, and a vague slender figure gradually revealed its traces.
"Quack, I've found you! delicious little thing!"
Abyssal Loomer (Elite Olgas Demon)
Rank: 3rd Order
Grade: 37
Body size: Large
It was an unusually tall elite Abyssal Snorkel, with two black daggers on its thin arms. At this time, it stared at Zuode in the air with blood-red eyes, and its snake-like tongue kept adding to its large mouth full of sharp teeth.
"You can't escape. Little thing, quack~!" suddenly a pair of sarcomas bulged out of its back, and then a pair of wide bat wings came out of it.
Immediately afterward, several smaller Abyssal Demons crawled out of the shadows, and they also spread their wings and circled Zuode.
