Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Bone Scorpion
At this time, it was the purple moon in the sky, and everything between heaven and earth was dyed purple, which looked mysterious and beautiful, but unfortunately, the surrounding desolate and lifeless environment made this beauty a little bleak.
Glancing at the three people who were pranayama with their eyes closed, Tang Yun fell into deep thought.
After the innate is the realm of soul nourishment, and the realm of soul nourishment is divided into four parts, namely soul nourishment, out-of-body travel, nocturnal travel and day travel. Tang Yun himself, because the Yuan Soul was different from the strength of ordinary people, when he had not yet broken through to the innate realm, he directly skipped the step of cultivating the soul and directly let the Yuan Soul out of the body.
And after cultivating to reach the innate level, the Yuan Soul became more powerful after being nourished by the innate true qi, and it didn't take too long to reach the last step, the realm of daily travel.
But at this point, she suddenly found that she couldn't find the way ahead. After the soul cultivation is complete, the next step should be to open up the Purple Mansion and build the Dao Foundation, but she has no idea how to do it.
There is no exercise, no inheritance, there is darkness in front of me, and I can't see the road ahead at all, so I can only grope step by step in the black light. What's worse is that the road is still full of bumps, and you may fall into the abyss at any point, and you will never be able to live beyond it.
After thinking for a long time, Tang Yun let out a long sigh.
The path of cultivation is the most important thing to pay attention to the law of wealthy couples, but now she has no resources, no Taoist companions who deliberately solve puzzles and discuss the Tao, and no method that directly points to immortality, let alone the cave heaven blessed land necessary for cultivating immortals. She didn't have any of these things, and she didn't even know where to get them.
After being depressed for a while, Tang Yun put down these worries. Now that her Yuan Soul has been fully nourished, no matter how she cultivates, the amount and purity of her True Qi cannot be increased in the slightest, and the strength of her Yuan Soul has hardly increased.
Fortunately, in addition to cultivating her soul, she also has a soul shadow that needs to be condensed, and now she has only successfully condensed four of the seven soul shadows, and there are still three largest spirit shadows left, and it takes a lot of time to successfully condense it, at least not something that can be seen in the past few months.
Just when Tang Yun saw that Zhang Xin and the three of them had recovered their strength, opened their eyes and were about to stand up, she suddenly felt a slight vibration from underground.
The vibration from the ground was imperceptible at first, if it weren't for the fact that Tang Yun's body was a snake, she was naturally extremely sensitive to the shaking of the ground, and she would have been unable to feel it. But after that, the vibration increased rapidly, and in just a few breaths, it was already strong enough that ordinary people could feel it.
Suddenly, Tang Yun's face changed, his body leaned back, and with a push of his hands on the ground, the whole person spun and moved sideways more than ten meters away.
And almost at the same time, there was a "whoosh" in the sand below, and a black line shot out, so fast that even with Tang Yun's eyesight, she could only barely see a vague phantom, if she hadn't sensed the fierce shock of the sand under her feet in advance and made a dodge action in advance, she would probably have been hit by the black line now.
As soon as the black line missed, it immediately retracted into the ground at a faster speed, and then Tang Yun felt the fierce vibration of the underground sand, just like when the black line was hit just now!
Tang Yun's eyes froze, her five senses opened with all her strength, and she carefully sensed the law of the vibration of the underground sand, and at the moment when the black line was about to break through the ground, her body jumped to the side flexibly, and she dodged this attack in a millimeter.
Tang Yun, who had dodged the attack again, naturally did not stand still, only to see her grab the black line, and what she started was a cold "whip" with the thickness of a baby's arm. Just as she grabbed the "whip", a huge force came from the "whip", trying to flick her hand away.
The force from the "whip" was so great that it was beyond her imagination, and she was caught off guard, and the fingers that grabbed the "whip" slipped, and she saw that the whip was about to break free, but suddenly saw a bright cold light flash, and then a "click" sounded.
Then Tang Yun felt the force from the "whip" in her hand suddenly disappear, causing her to stumble under her feet and almost fall to the ground.
When I looked up, I found that Wang Sufang was standing not far away with a lancet, and the "whip" in her hand was cut in two by her.
Tang Yun was a little surprised by Wang Sufang's speed and strength, and looked down at the "whip" in his hand, but found that where was that thing, it was a scorpion tail with a pitch-black body.
Just when Tang Yun was slightly stunned, an angry roar like metal friction came out from the ground, and then the ground shook even more violently, countless pitch-black dirt tumbled out from under the ground, and after a while, he saw a pitch-black scorpion bigger than a bison burrowing out of the soil.
The appearance of the scorpion was extremely strange, the whole body was covered with black bone armor, and there were some hideous bone spurs growing on the skeleton, which made the whole scorpion look extremely fierce.
But the most impressive thing about this scorpion is that it should be the eyes on its skull, but now there are only two hollows left, and two dark green flames are burning in the hollows, which look dangerous and strange.
As soon as the scorpion came out, Wang Sufang moved, only to see her holding a knife in both hands, pointing at the scorpion, and the whole person turned into a cold light and pounced towards the scorpion.
Where did the big scorpion that had just had its tail cut off dare to be careless, and hurriedly raised a pair of big chelas towards Wang Sufang and waved them over, only to hear a crisp sound of "bang", Wang Sufang's knife cut a dazzling spark on the big scorpion's big claws, and then the whole person was hit by a big chela, and his body flew out softly.
Fortunately, Zhang Xin and Qin Molan on the side reacted quickly enough and stepped forward to catch her in time, otherwise if she fell to the ground this time, she would not be able to break a few bones.
The big scorpion slapped Wang Sufang away, let out a hiss in his mouth, raised a big pincer and sandwiched it towards Wang Sufang and the three of them who fell to the ground.
When Tang Yun saw it, his heart was also anxious, and he rushed forward quickly, grabbed the tail of the big scorpion, let out a roar of anger from his mouth, and the qi and blood in his whole body surged wildly, and he forcibly picked up the scorpion that was several times larger than her in size and weight.
"Give me death!" Tang Yun shouted, slamming the scorpion to the ground like a meteor hammer. After a muffled sound of "bang", a burst of black-gray dust rose up, enveloping Tang Yun and the big scorpion's figures.
When the dust cleared, Tang Yun was revealed half-lying on the ground, and in front of her, there was a huge dirt pit, the scorpion was lying motionless in the middle of the dirt pit, the dark green flames that were originally burning in the two eye sockets had been extinguished at this moment, and there were only two empty eye sockets left in that place.
Tang Yun, who was half-lying on the ground, gasped for breath, at this moment her head was covered with sweat, and her clothes were almost soaked, and the huge scorpion that had just been picked up by her huge body and amazing weight had seriously overdrawn her physical strength, making her feel that every muscle and every bone in her body was sore now.
After a while, Tang Yun stood up, looked at the half tail of the scorpion that was still holding it in his hand, threw it aside, took out the machete that Wang Sufang gave her from the storage bag, jumped on the body of the big scorpion, and slashed towards the gap in the scorpion carapace.
While swinging the knife vigorously, trying to split the carapace off the scorpion's body, he shouted to the three people who were watching the excitement not far away: "Don't look at it, come and help!"
With her voice, she finally woke up the three people who were in a daze, and hurriedly took out various tools from their respective storage bags, ran over and began to disassemble the huge scorpion.
The carapace of this bone scorpion is very hard, especially a bunch of big tweezers, and the knife that Wang Sufang slashed with all his strength only left a shallow trace on it!
It took too long for a big scorpion to be dismantled by Tang Yun and the four of them, and all the carapaces were pulled out. And what surprised them a little was that this big scorpion looked at its huge body, and its importance was amazing, but its body was hollow, and after peeling off the outer layer of carapace, there was no flesh and blood and internal organs inside!
Tang Yun and Zhang Xin had never heard of such strange creatures, and after emptying the two storage bags and loading these carapaces, the four of them rushed to the south without looking back.
I didn't encounter any trouble along the way, but along the way, I only saw a desert that could not be seen at a glance, as if I had walked into some black desert.
After flying continuously for a long distance, but looking at the surrounding environment as if it had not changed in the slightest, he looked at the purple moon hanging in the sky, if it weren't for the purple moon in the sky guiding the direction, Tang Yun would have thought that he had lost his way.
Just when Tang Yun was wondering if he wanted to remind Zhang Xin and change direction, there was a slight sound of water running in front of him.
The appearance of the sound of the water made everyone's spirits shock, and they hurriedly accelerated the speed of the flight and rushed in the direction where the sound of the water came from.
But when they got closer, they all stopped with a wry smile.
There was indeed a river in front of them, but it was a yin river, and if I wanted to be more precise, it would be a small stream.
The Yin River is no more than a foot wide, and what flows in it is not the river water, but an unusually turbid pale yellow liquid, and there are some white mist hovering on the river surface, giving people a strange feeling.
Tang Yun collected the Qi Soaring Technique and landed on a black stone next to the Yin River, and was thinking about whether he should follow this Yin River to find some corpse puppets that could be dealt with, when suddenly there was a "poof" sound, and a white thing jumped out of the river in front of him and rushed straight towards her.
