Chapter 39: Private Trials
"But if you are willing, as long as you can pass the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons according to my requirements and finally complete the entry trial, I can personally give you a reward. Yu Yao lowered her head and looked at Mo Zhiyao with a strange glint in her eyes, waiting for Mo Zhiyao's reply.
"Far away, don't force yourself, do what you can. Jun Ziqian said softly, and Meng Zhuxi on the side also nodded again and again. Two months of crazy killing is not a joke, it is a serious challenge to the mind and physical fitness.
Mo Zhiyao lowered his head and thought for a while, looked up at Yu Yao, and said categorically: "Okay, just do what Yu Yao's predecessors said." However, when fighting, I may not be able to control the speed of progress, so I can simply trouble Senior Yu Yao. ”
"Yes. Yu Yao said in a flat voice, although her expression on the surface had not changed, but there was a touch of essence in her eyes, with a hint of appreciation. "Then you can rest for another hour. ”
Another hour passed, Mo Zhiyao's physical strength had recovered as before, stood up, asked Jun Ziqian for a bottle of wine, drank it all in one gulp, raised his hand to throw the empty bottle away, and threw himself out.
"Senior, I'll come!"
The light of the water sword disappeared, and it was replaced by Mo Zhiyao's figure with an afterimage.
This time, the speed of moving forward was completely controlled by Yu Yao, which was twice as slow as yesterday!
This time, Mo Zhiyao wanted to verify whether his judgment was true, so he let go of his hands and feet and began to suck the life essence of the demon beast wantonly. All the demon beasts that were touched by all parts of his body stiffened for a moment, and then vomited blood and threw them away.
Because he wanted to protect the three of them, Mo Zhiyao didn't have time to absorb the life essence of the demon beasts, and each demon beast only absorbed a trace of it. But because of this, the demon beast showed a flaw in an instant, and took this opportunity to kill or seriously injure it at a distance.
Although it was only a fleeting thing, it still couldn't escape Yu Yao's sharp eyes. Yu Yao's eyes flashed with surprise, and she turned her head to ask Junziqian beside her.
"Ziqian, I seem to be able to absorb the life essence of these demon beasts, but yesterday it wasn't like that, what's going on?"
Jun Ziqian didn't speak when he heard this, and looked at Mo Zhiyao. When the two first met, Mo Zhiyao asked Jun Ziqian to make an oath to keep it secret. Therefore, Jun Ziqian didn't know what Mo Zhiyao's opinion was, so he didn't dare to answer.
Seeing that Mo Zhiyao did not object, Jun Ziqian opened his mouth to answer Yu Yao's question, but he was also vague. "There is a kind of exercise that can absorb the life essence of demon beasts and use it to transform it into its own spiritual power, but the amount cannot be too much. As for why it was useless yesterday, it is estimated that today's demon beasts are stronger than yesterday's, so they are only used from a distance. ”
In fact, as long as it is life, even if it is a plant, Mo Zhiyao can absorb its life essence. Jun Ziqian only said that Mo Zhiyao could absorb the life essence of the demon beast, and obviously concealed it for Mo Zhiyao. At the same time, it also vaguely reminds Mo Zhiyao not to absorb too much, so as not to appear unbalanced.
"Absorbing the life essence of the demon beast and turning it into spiritual power?" Yu Yao and Meng Zhuxi's eyes were filled with extreme horror when they heard this, this kind of exercise was really too weird.
The reason why Mo Zhiyao agreed with Jun Ziqian to tell his secret was entirely because Jun Ziqian had mentioned to him before that in the North Garden of the Tianjiao League, there were also a large number of demon beasts for people to sharpen and practice.
After arriving at the North Garden of the Tianjiao League, Mo Zhiyao will inevitably improve his cultivation by absorbing the life essence of the demon beast, and he will also expose this matter at that time. Anyway, as long as the demon pattern is not revealed, Mo Zhiyao is not afraid of the demon cultivation being exposed.
Although each demon beast only absorbed a trace of life essence, the number of demon beasts was extremely large, and it was simply endless. In this way, it is completely huge.
With the supply of life essence, Mo Zhiyao's state is much stronger than yesterday, not only does he not show fatigue, but he has a tendency to become more and more courageous.
The bloody battle was on the day, and when it was time to rest at night, Mo Zhiyao was completely different from yesterday, with excitement on his face, he came to Jun Ziqian's side, and did not speak, but sat cross-legged directly to check the situation of the power of the demon spirit in his body.
After some exploration, Mo Zhiyao was overjoyed and his heart was full of joy. Sure enough, as he expected, both lines have improved, and they are completely balanced.
Mo Zhiyao's eyes opened, and the bottom of his eyes was filled with intense joy. In this way, it can be regarded as solving the big trouble in my heart, and I will no longer have to worry about the magic pattern surpassing the human pattern in the future, resulting in the loss of my mind.
"Zhiyao, how do you feel, you must be careful with such a large amount of absorption. Jun Ziqian frowned and said worriedly.
Mo Zhiyao stretched out his hand and patted his friend's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I know it in my heart, you can rest assured, it will be fine." ”
Jun Ziqian knew that Mo Zhiyao would not lie to him, since he said so, he would be absolutely fine, so he put his mind at ease and handed over another bottle of wine.
Mo Zhiyao didn't drink alcohol before, but since he met Jun Ziqian, he has become fond of the contents of this cup. The liquor entered his throat, and the hot and spicy feeling made Mo Zhiyao feel comfortable all over.
Of course, Mo Zhiyao is never greedy for cups, and he only drinks Junziqian's wine.
An hour later, Mo Zhiyao stood up, and the gentleman Qian and Meng Zhuxi around him were stunned.
"There's still an hour to go. Meng Zhuxi said.
"No need, senior, come for me. Mo Zhiyao said to Yu Yao above his head.
"Are you sure? Don't be pushy. Yu Yao'e frowned, looked down at Mo Zhiyao and asked.
"It's okay, senior, don't worry. Mo Zhiyao nodded and said. Then he rose up and threw himself into the herd. Seeing this, Yu Yao had no choice but to put away his long sword and fall to the ground.
In this way, a group of four people began to go deep into the Hundred Demon Valley at a steady speed.
As it deepened, the types of demon beasts began to multiply, and their strength cultivation became stronger and stronger. At first, it was just animals, but after ten days of travel, birds began to appear. In this way, Mo Zhiyao had no choice but to expand the scope of protection, even taking into account the sky.
After another half a month, the four of them had already arrived at the central hinterland of the Hundred Demon Valley. All kinds of fierce and powerful demon beasts gather here, and the weakest ones are only one line away from stepping into the spirit realm, and there are many big demons above the spirit transformation.
Mo Zhiyao also began to get tired of running, and the scope of defense was constantly shrinking, even so, there were a few times when he almost made a mistake, almost letting the demon beast break through the protective circle.
Although Yu Yao was by his side, Junzi Qian and Meng Zhuxi still maintained a high degree of vigilance at all times, in case a demon beast broke through the protection and killed in front of them.
When it was time to rest at midnight, Yu Yao told Mo Zhiyao that from here, in the next ten days, the demon beasts he encountered would become stronger and stronger, because he had already reached the center of the Hundred Demon Valley, and told Mo Zhiyao to be careful at the same time, but also reminded him not to be reckless, once he found that he could not hold on, he would speak immediately. Otherwise, even if Mo Zhiyao didn't say it, Yu Yao would also make a move.
Mo Zhiyao nodded to show that he understood, and he would not be reckless.
On the thirty-sixth day of entering the Valley of the Hundred Demons, in the hinterland. As far as the eye can see, there is an endless stream of fierce beasts, such as ice horned rhinos, three-eyed stone apes, and colorful scale poisonous pythons...... All of them rushed towards the four people without fear of death, including the air, the purple-winged painted mosquito, the six-winged wind hoof, and the one-horned golden eagle.
In the sky and under the sky, all kinds of hideous demon beasts, either howling or hissing, overwhelmingly flocked to the four of them. Meng Zhuxi, who had the lowest cultivation, leaned closely to Yu Yao's side, not daring to leave half a step, and was almost dragged away by Yu Yao. And Jun Ziqian's face was also ugly, and the long sword had already been taken out, held in his palm, ready to move at any time.
Only Yu Yao is expression was as usual, completely ignoring the many demon beasts on his head, like a letter garden, walking easily.
And Mo Zhiyao had already unleashed all his cultivation combat power, and the lightning rays were intertwined into a huge fine power grid, covering the heads of several people, and the crackling sound was endless. From time to time, there are demon beasts in the air that swoop down, and after hitting the power grid, they are scorched all over their bodies, and the pungent smell of burnt skin and flesh is unbearable.
Black thunderballs the size of fists flew out of Mo Zhiyao's palms, but any demon beast that was hit would be blown into the sky.
For Mo Zhiyao's cultivation of the same thunder and lightning power as the Three-Hearted Xuanhu after entering the Spirit Transformation Realm, Yu Yao and Jun Ziqian were very surprised, but they didn't ask questions.
"Huh!" a strand of crystal silk thread passed through the gap in the power grid like lightning and wrapped around Mo Zhiyao's left wrist.
Zebra spider!
There was a sharp pain between the wrists, and the skin that came into contact with the spider silk "snorted", and black smoke rose one after another. If it weren't for Mo Zhiyao's possession of the Eternal Demon Yuan, I was afraid that his entire arm would be corroded in an instant.
"Die!"
Mo Zhiyao roared angrily, pulled back his left arm, and dragged the spotted poisonous spider to the front, and the electric strength was like a snake, and it was instantly wound up. In the terrible scream, the brindled poisonous spider was scorched black and died on the spot
The left arm was free again, but Mo Zhiyao's figure was inevitably affected.
"Quack!"
A long tongue took the opportunity to shoot from one side, wrapping around Mo Zhiyao's lower body, and at the same time, bursts of bone-chilling cold air penetrated deep into Mo Zhiyao's body, and a layer of crystal ice crystals instantly condensed on the surface of the body.
Snow Ice Frog!
"Click!" In the crisp sound, Mo Zhiyao broke the ice around him, grabbed the long tongue with a "snap", and the power of thunder and lightning rushed away, and an electric arc flashed out of the seven orifices of the blood-condensing ice frog, and with a sound of "Peng", it was blown into a bloody mist by thunder.
"Boom!" An iron-backed turtle retracted its limbs and head into the turtle's shell, smashed into the power grid, and struck in front of Mo Zhiyao.
"Bang!" Mo Zhiyao clenched his fists together and slammed on the back of the turtle, the thunder and lightning flashed, the turtle shell shattered, and the iron-backed turtle was smashed into a lump of coke, crossed an arc, and flew away.
A agile figure rushed to Mo Zhiyao's body along the power grid that was knocked open by the iron-backed turtle, raised his claws, and slashed down.
Mo Zhiyao's previous body was old, and he couldn't get back into his position, barely avoiding the vital point, his left shoulder went down, and he was suddenly slashed by sharp claws, and three huge and hideous wounds stretched from his shoulder to the back of his hand.
Money Spirit Leopard!
The body is thin, and there are sharp blades everywhere in the body, especially the limbs, which are basically four cold and shining blades!
"Ah" Mo Zhiyao couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, wrapped around Dianjin's right leg, and kicked the money spirit leopard in half.
When the figure retreated, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow, like a black streamer, flashing from behind the money spirit leopard, but the target was not Mo Yuan, but Meng Zhuxi behind him!
