Chapter 50: Digging a Pit
What made Zi Teng even more pleasantly surprised was that the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant had actually woken up.
The feeling of indifference that Zi Teng had at the beginning was a wisp of consciousness left by the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant, and this was also the first ideological communication between the two of them after establishing a bloodline connection, so Zi Teng was not very adaptable, and because he was refining the Void Qi in his body, he didn't pay much attention to it.
It turned out that under the crazy invasion of a large amount of delusional qi, Zi Teng had begun to faint a little, and at the moment when the illusion was immediately generated, the center of his eyebrows was violently shaken, and the fire-shaped mark appeared again, and at the same time, it also woke up the Red Flame Soul Refining Ant from its slumber.
However, after the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant woke up, it immediately felt that a crisis was approaching, and there was a strange energy aura attracting it, so, in impatience, it only left a trace of consciousness in Zi Teng's brain, and it broke out and shot towards the energy that attracted it.
This is Zi Teng, if others are trapped by the illusion, not only that, but the sharp tip has already pierced into his head.
Because, at the most dangerous moment of Ziteng, the Red Flame Soul Refining Ant had already entered its target, but its target was the dark purple flame in the middle of the canopy.
In fact, that flame is the true core of this Phantom Spider Demon Vine, which is equivalent to the demon soul of the human and demon races, not only the source of the power of the Phantom Spider Demon Vine, but also its most vulnerable place.
And this kind of demon soul is immune to the physical attacks of some low-level cultivators, because they can't use the magic soul power to use those devastating combat skills.
After the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant entered the Demon Soul, it seemed to see a large amount of food, and it began to suck it up, which made the Phantom Spider Demon Vine in a hurry, and had to throw down Zi Teng and the Lion Tiger Beast, and Zi Teng also escaped the catastrophe.
At this time, Zi Teng was full of energy, jumped down from the back of the lion and tiger beast, and gently patted the lion and tiger beast's head, but he was a little grateful in his heart, he knew that if there was no lion and tiger beast, it would be impossible to save the day today.
"Little flower, hard work. ”
Seeing that on the trunk of the tree that had completely died, a little red mangs flickered slightly, and Zi Teng only screamed tentatively, but he heard a "squeak" sound from the red mang, and then, the red flame soul refining ant turned into a beam of light and shot over, and disappeared with the fire-shaped imprint in the center of his eyebrows.
When Zi Teng felt the small space in his brain again, the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant was already lying quietly inside, and it also transmitted a consciousness that only Zi Teng could understand, which meant that it also needed to go into a short hibernation to refine the energy it absorbed this time.
I don't know when, the wall of fire around it has long been extinguished, and seeing the scorched traces in the circle, Zi Teng is still a little puzzled, so he subconsciously glanced at the lion and tiger beast on the side.
But the lion and tiger beast first looked at the sky, then whispered a "whin", and finally fell on the ground again, putting the big head on the ground, not paying attention to Ziteng.
Not to mention that the liger beast can't speak, even if it can, it probably won't be able to understand, besides, the bloodline connection between the liger beast and Zi Teng is not as good as the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant, and it can communicate with Zi Teng's consciousness.
To put it bluntly, the Lion Tiger Beast is just a demonic beast that Zi Teng subdues with the method of controlling beasts, while the Chiyan Soul Refining Ant is different.
The Chiyan Soul Refining Ant has never left since it parasitized into Zi Teng's body, and later it was nourished by Zi Teng's bloodline and soul power, until the bloodline connection was established, and it has become Zi Teng's natal demonic beast, or Zi Teng's companion beast, Zi Teng is born, it is born, Zi Teng dies, it dies, this relationship is not comparable to the lion and tiger beast.
"Strange. ”
Seeing that there was no way to verify this matter, Zi Teng had no choice but to shake his head lightly and no longer entangled.
However, he then remembered Na Mu Ying, so he checked it repeatedly, but only saw the bodies of the five women in green, but not Mu Ying.
"Did he run away?"
Zi Teng was a little puzzled, but then denied this speculation.
There is no other reason, looking at the traces here, with Mu Ying's ability, he will definitely not be able to escape, and if he has the ability to escape, how can he easily let go of himself who is cultivating?
Zi Teng had already thought that Mu Ying had died here.
But where is his body?
Looking at the liger again, Zi Teng shook his head secretly, because he had already felt that the liger had taken itself down and had never moved again.
In the end, Zi Teng looked at the phantom spider vine that had become decayed and dilapidated, and he could only boil down the problem to this.
Na Muying was also unlucky, but he went to calculate Zi Teng's brother, and after being brought here by Zi Teng, he died so silently that he didn't even have a chance to fart in the end.
And Zi Teng would not have thought that his every move would be secretly watched by someone.
............
"Boom. ”
Zi Teng's fist, full of soul power, smashed the trunk of the Phantom Spider Demon Vine, and with a heaven-shattering sound, the Phantom Spider Demon Vine, which had already turned into rotten wood, burst open, revealing a stone tablet more than one person high.
When Zi Teng put away his Red Flame Soul Dagger and the corpses of the five women, he began to look for the stone tablet here.
He concluded that even if this was not a formation, there should be a stone tablet, otherwise, how could he get his reward?
So, he searched around here, but after searching for a long time, he didn't find anything wrong, and finally, he focused his attention on the phantom spider Moteng's body again, which was the center of the five-mile radius.
Zi Teng just had the mentality of trying it out, and smashed his fist on the phantom spider demon vine, who knew that he really guessed correctly, the stone tablet was really standing in the trunk of the phantom spider demon vine.
However, after Zi Teng's joy, he was just about to touch the stone tablet with his hand, wanting to send in a trace of soul power to open the treasure house where the prizes were stored, but the inscription on the stone tablet was directly in his eyes.
I saw that there were five big characters neatly engraved on the head of the stele: Phantom Sea Quartz Forest
Seeing this, Zi Teng just shook his head contemptuously, in his opinion, the Phantom Sea was also appropriate, but Quartz didn't see it.
After filtering directly, look at the inscription again, and go to the road: see this stele, this level has passed; if you pick a different treasure, you need to see the root of the stele; refine this stele, the fragments are self-sufficient.
"Huh, isn't there a sarcophagus like the one in the previous level?"
After reading the inscription, Zi Teng muttered in his heart, as if he was a little disappointed.
But when he read it again, he had a hint of anticipation, as if it wasn't for nothing!
The first sentence should be easy to explain, that is, since this stele has been found, it is considered to have passed another level.
But in the second sentence of the words "If you pick a different treasure, you need to see the root of the stele", Zi Teng was a little puzzled.
Literally, there should be a kind of treasure, but what is that stele root?
Under careful consideration, Zi Teng's eyes couldn't help but light up, do you want me to dig three feet into the ground?
Just do it when you think about it.
With a flash in Zi Teng's hand, the Red Flame Soul Dagger was taken out and dug down towards the root of the stone stele.
Digging a pit with a small dagger is not an easy job, it is very tiring.
And Zi Teng didn't dare to use his soul power, for fear of damaging the bottom of the stone stele.
But after digging hard for a while, Zi Teng had already dug a pit of nearly one meter around the stone tablet out of breath, but he still did not find the so-called strange treasure.
Moreover, it seems that after many years of burial in the ground, a thick layer of stone fungus has grown on the exposed stone roots, and it is as black as stone rust.
Zi Teng was as tired as a dog, and he already wanted to give up and directly refine this stone tablet, but after thinking about it, he decided to continue digging and digging.
This time, Zi Teng endured it and dug two meters in one go, and even his entire body was already standing in the pit.
However, the hard work really paid off, Zi Teng's tiredness this time was really not in vain, and he finally found three dents nearly two meters below the stone tablet into the soil.
"Damn, there's something wrong!"
When Zi Teng used the soul dagger in his hand to clean up the three dents, he couldn't help but curse angrily.
It turned out that those three dents were nothing else, but they were the card slots of the three Earth Soul Keys.
Zi Teng thought that he would save three Diling Soul Keys this time, but he didn't expect to be waiting for him here, not only did he not save them, but he also tired himself as if he was something.
Besides, you can use these three Earth Soul Keys as long as you want, why do you have to design them so deep, isn't this a toss-up.
Zi Teng secretly scolded the person who designed this stone tablet thousands of times in his heart, but he didn't know that this was designed to test the patience of the person who passed the test.
And just as Zi Teng was cursing, in a void, a red-haired old man like a soul sneezed twice in succession, and after rubbing his nose, he actually thought that he was suffering from the cold.
Looking at the three card slots, Zi Teng also reluctantly took out three Diling Soul Keys again.
Since Zi Teng obtained the three Diling Soul Keys from the three guards of the Duan family, he has obtained nine more in the Diling Tomb, and he used three of them when he opened the level reward last time, and there are still nine left in his hand at this time.
Despite this, Zi Teng still couldn't help but feel a little painful, this is the key for the family members to participate in the Diling trial in the future.
Extremely reluctantly placing the three soul keys in the three card slots, Zi Teng began to wait for what kind of changes would happen, in his imagination, it should be another trembling, and then opened a treasure vault.
Zi Teng waited expectantly, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see anything unusual, so he had to stretch out his hand and stick it on the stone tablet, and slowly released a trace of soul power to test it.
This time, I found some changes.
Zi Teng only felt that although the ground under his feet did not tremble, the stone tablet began to vibrate, first a slight vibration, and soon turned into a violent vibration, and as the vibration became more and more intense, the stone fungus on the root of the stone tablet, the black rusty skin actually began to fall down.
Soon, the rust was like shedding a layer of skin, and all of them fell off, revealing a scaly golden yellow crystal, shining with a smart aura, which was very beautiful.
"This, this is ......"
Zi Teng squatted down and stroked the golden crystal with his hand, his eyes seemed to fall off, and after being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but say: "Mud horse, get rich, get rich." ”
When he checked again, he couldn't imagine how there could be something here that even those powerful people hundreds of years ago would blush when they saw it.
