Chapter 0666 - Inside the Black Cocoon
Su Qi admired the courage of the city lord of Ember City to spend money.
The bounty order attracted the attention of all the loose cultivators in the city, and some monks originally planned to leave Ember City immediately after escaping from the secret places such as the Yellow Carp and went to the south of the boundary road to take refuge, but as soon as the bounty order was posted, many people immediately hesitated, they didn't want to risk here, and they coveted the reward on the bounty order, and they were entangled and entangled, and they couldn't make up their minds at all for a while.
After all, this is a precious opportunity to obtain the emperor's blood and join the four major sects, and the reward order is clearly written, these rewards are specially prepared for casual cultivation, the disciples of the four major sects and those second-rate sects will not compete with them, and the Holy Pavilion even separates the Kongming and the Divine Realm monks and provides two rewards, which makes the scattered cultivators very excited, without the competition of those disciples of the great sects, they are just a level, and none of the casual cultivators will think that they are weaker than others, and even if they can't get the first, the second and third rewards are also very good。
Su Qi roughly estimated that there were about 30,000 scattered cultivators in Ember City now, even if the battle was so fierce that ninety percent of the scattered cultivators were killed, not counting the priceless emperor's blood, the rewards paid by the All Saints Pavilion would be as high as tens of thousands of realm coins, and if the price of exchanging the corpse of the black beast was added, I am afraid it would be an unimaginable astronomical amount.
And Su Qi soon discovered something interesting.
Someone began to fan the flames in the casual practice.
"What are you afraid of? With the embers of the city lord here, can the black beast still get in?"
"The four major sects have disciples stationed here, anyway, they will go up to me, and I will retreat if they retreat, maybe we can't compare to these disciples of the big sects in a fight, but if we talk about escaping, how much worse can we be than them? If the situation is not good, let's hurry up!"
"That's it, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, with the command of the Half Emperor, this is a battle to win!"
"I heard that Bashuo and Qingliu City have fought three or four times, didn't the black beast fail to break through the city? ”
Similar words spread very quickly in the ember city, the half-emperor was in charge, and the disciples of the four major sects were the main force, such a statement made many casual cultivators feel at ease, and they put down their packed luggage, and began to prepare for the upcoming big battle in the city, shouting to pull people into the team, spending a lot of money to buy magic rune paper pills, and secretly inquiring about other scattered cultivators to measure the strength of the opponent, which can be called a complete picture of all beings.
But there were also people who watched coldly, some were lone wanderers like Su Qi, and some were a small team, they did not join this carnival of scattered cultivation, but remained calm and vigilant.
They know very well that the four great sects are never good things.
After Su Qi, there were many people who fled back to Afterfire City one after another, and seventy percent of the scattered cultivators who went out returned safely, thanks to the fact that the black beasts near Afterfire City were not strong, so they didn't cause much loss, and it was also after they came back that Afterburner City finally began to look a little crowded.
Su Qi returned to his small courtyard, although he chose a remote place, but as there were more and more scattered cultivation in the city, people began to live in the nearby courtyard, and they were noisy from morning to night.
However, Su Qi was busy studying other things.
Hongyun's sudden awakening was a big help for him, and he wished that Hongyun could tell him what the black cocoon was.
After draining Su Qi Sancheng's aura again, a red cloud that was fluttering like a wisp of soul appeared in front of him.
"This thing is dead. The first time she saw the black callus, Hongyun said categorically.
"Dead? Does that mean the black cocoon was originally a living thing?"
Hongyun circled around the black cocoon, reaching out and poking it from time to time, and it was a long time before she said with certainty, "Well, I can feel a little bit of the power of the remnant soul from above, it died after it ran out of life. ”
"Draining life...... Could it be that this black cocoon gave birth to a black beast?" Su Qi was very puzzled, although this black cocoon was not small, it didn't look like it could give birth to tens of thousands of black beasts.
"The black beast came out of here, but it wasn't necessarily born from it," Hongyun put his hand on the black cocoon, a purple light flew out, cutting a hole in the smooth surface of the black cocoon, and a thin layer of fragments fell down, and the inside turned out to be pale red meat, and the flesh was also covered with tiny black flesh buds, which looked extremely disgusting, Hongyun put the thin black slice in front of him, looked at it carefully for a while, and then stretched out his fingers without caring and pinched a piece of flesh down, "Sure enough, it's dead, the vitality in this flesh bud has been drained clean," She clapped her palms and stood up, "I think this should be a doppelganger." ”
"Doppelganger?"
"Well, although the Funeral Butterfly doesn't give us much memory, but there are still some about the Black Beast, in the concept of the Funeral Butterfly, the Black Beast is like a reptile, for example, just like your human race looks at ants, you can step on them with one foot, but if there are too many of them, the ants will also tear down the house and destroy the embankment. ”
Hongyun was bouncing around the courtyard with her hands behind her back, and the fact that she could move freely made her very happy, and the appearance of that little girl made Su Qi begin to wonder if this was a butterfly girl who wanted to destroy all beings.
"Just like ants, there is also a resemblance to an ant queen among black beasts, although I don't know what the queen looks like, but in the memory of the Funeral Butterfly, this ant queen is huge, and the surface is full of twisted flesh buds," Hongyun suddenly turned around and said with a smile, "It looks like the inside of this black cocoon." ”
"So you think this black cocoon is an ant....... No, maybe it should be called the beast mother, you think this black cocoon is a doppelganger of the beast mother?"
"It's just a more likely guess. ”
Su Qi groaned and paced slowly in the courtyard, "If the black cocoon is really a clone, it may also have the ability to breed black beasts, why do you say that black beasts are not necessarily born from it." ”
"Maybe it's just a place to hatch?" Hongyun blinked, "Until now, no one can tell what a black beast is, right? How many black beasts have you seen?"
"There are only three kinds of black beasts that I have seen with my own eyes, but in the information of the Immortal Palace, there are nearly thirty kinds of black beasts in total. ”
Hongyun smiled mysteriously, "Then what do they look like?"
"It's a lot like a beast, but it's very different. Su Qi thought for a moment, "There are scattered cultivators in Afterglow City who joked that the black beast is a crooked realm beast. ”
"It's crooked, it's quite an image," Hongyun was overjoyed, "Then do you know that there are still humanoid black beasts in this world?"
