God Emperor of Dragon Tripod

Chapter 64: Pith-eating worm

Views:

After resting for more than an hour, Chu Jun stood up with Zhao Yu's support, tried to walk a few steps, and found that there was nothing serious. Chu Jun took out a piece of moonstone and threw it upwards. The soft white light of the moonstone rose straight up for nearly twenty meters before reaching the top of the cave. Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly exclaimed that he was lucky. It was a miracle that he was fine after falling from a height of more than 20 meters. Since Chu Jun has practiced the Lieyang Jue and the Cold Moon Jue, the process of cultivation is the process of repeatedly tempering the body with the essence of the sun and the moon. The strength and toughness of the body are much stronger than those of the same level of immortal cultivators.

Judging from the height of the cave roof, this should be a huge cave. Chu Jun and Zhao Yu held up the moonstone and groped forward in the dark cave. From time to time, they could see fallen skeletons on the ground. Just touch them lightly. It was broken into pieces, and it seemed that it had died quite a long time ago.

Chu Jun input a small amount of the new moon's divine power into the moonstone. Unexpectedly, the moonstone became extremely bright, like a bright moon, illuminating an area of a hundred meters. Chu Jun couldn't help being startled. Zhao Yu looked at the moonstone in Chu Jun's hand in surprise and asked, "What's going on?"

Chu Jun shrugged and said, "It's just a little bit of spiritual power put into it!"

Zhao Yu also tried to input a small amount of spiritual power into the moonstone in his hand, but there was no response from the moonstone. He couldn't help but frowned and looked at Chu Jun. Chu Jun took the moonstone in her hand and also input the new moon's divine power into it. The moonstone suddenly brightened, and the soft moonlight spread around, making the surrounding area even brighter.

"Ah!" Zhao Yu covered her mouth and exclaimed softly, her eyes blurred by smoke and water were full of surprise and confusion.

Chu Jun smiled and said: "Maybe it has something to do with the skills I practice!"

Zhao Yu's expression was a little complicated, and there was a hint of undetectable worry in his eyes, and he said softly: "Chu Jun, your spiritual power can be combined with the moonstone, is it related to the moon?"

Chu Jun's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly woke up. Shen Xiaobao said that demons cultivated themselves by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and the vitality of plants. Yu'er didn't think I was a demon, right

"Yu'er, you don't think I'm a monster, do you?" Chu Jun asked directly, lest a lack of communication between the two create a gap, which is what Chu Jun least wants to see.

Zhao Yu pursed her lips and shook her head. Chu Jun couldn't help but said anxiously: "Yu'er, look at my ears. Didn't Xiaobao say that the demon clan's ears are a bit pointy!"

When Zhao Yu saw Chu Jun's anxious look, he couldn't help laughing out loud. Then he looked at Chu Jun's ears carefully for a while, nodded and said, "It's really a bit sharp!"

"No way, it's really a bit pointy?" Chu Jun's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that practicing the demon clan's skills will make your ears pointy? However, Chu Jun soon caught a glimpse of Zhao Yu's eyes and suddenly realized.

"Okay, you are teasing me!" Chu Jun hugged Zhao Yu and tickled that moving waist. Zhao Yu was teased so much that she giggled. Her delicate body twisted around in Chu Jun's arms. The two soft lumps on her chest rubbed against each other, causing Chu Jun's lower abdomen to heat up. The things below naturally reacted. Zhao Yu suddenly blushed and pushed Chu Jun away. He glanced at the raised part and said, "You... damn it!"

Chu Jun scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Let's see if you still dare to tease me!"

Zhao Yu's pretty face was as red as a beautiful jade, and her bright eyes were filled with water. She rolled her eyes at Chu Jun charmingly and hummed: "Who told you to hide something from me? I'm not happy!"

Chu Jun naturally understood that Zhao Yu was deeply devoted to him. If he knew that the other party had something to hide and refused to tell, he would feel uncomfortable. Chu Jun held Zhao Yu's catkins and said sincerely: "Yu'er, I really can't tell you about the exercises. The person who taught me the exercises strictly ordered not to leak this matter to others!"

Zhao Yu nodded and said softly: "I'm not angry. Our sect's techniques are not allowed to be taught to outsiders. I understand!"

Chu Jun gently hugged Zhao Yu into his arms, kissed the smooth forehead and said, "Yu'er, thank you for trusting me!"

"Fool, how could I not trust you!" Zhao Yu said softly.

Chu Jun chuckled and said, "Then you don't think I'm a monster, do you?"

Zhao Yu raised her pretty face and looked at Chu Jun lovingly, and said quietly: "Even if you are a demon clan, Zhao Yu has already recognized you as his enemy in this life!"

Chu Jun hugged Zhao Yu tightly into his arms, as if he wanted to squeeze the beauty into his body. He bit her ear and whispered: "Yu'er!"

Zhao Yufang's heart trembled slightly, with a touching blush on her pretty face, which was pressed against the side of Chu Jun's neck. This mental settlement about the skills was opened, and the stone in Chu Jun's heart was also released.

The two of them were affectionate for a while before reluctantly parting ways. Zhao Yu's lips became increasingly red and slightly swollen. It was the work of a greedy animal. Chu Jun slapped his numb tongue without hesitation, Zhao Yu rolled his eyes at him in shame, and there were a series of kiss marks on his white neck.

The light of the moonstone illuminated the entire cave, and the two finally saw the entire cave clearly. The cave is nearly 100 meters in diameter and the ceiling is about 20 meters high. There are messy skeletons everywhere. Judging from the pile of skulls, there are at least tens of thousands of them. It is really a typical mass grave. Although we have seen too much along the way, at this moment, thousands of skeletons stacked there still have a strong visual impact.

"What exactly happened here?" Zhao Yu asked in shock.

Chu Jun bent down and picked up a rusty dagger. Zhao Yu let out a light sigh and said, "This dagger seems to be the standard magic weapon of Liefa Sect!"

Zhao Yu took the short sword and looked at it carefully for a while, then shook his head and said: "It doesn't seem like it, Liefa Sect's swords will be engraved with flame marks!"

Chu Jun took out the Black Iron Sword and scraped off the rust on the short knife, and found that there was indeed no flame mark on the knife.

"Ignore this for now, let's quickly look for a way out!" Zhao Yuqing said.

Chu Jun nodded, glanced around, and found that the big cave was closed. There was no other exit at all except the hole on the top of the cave. It was not impossible to go out from the hole at the top of the cave and return the same way, but when he thought of the countless skeleton soldiers outside, Chu Jun's scalp went numb.

"Let's keep looking. Maybe there are other cave entrances or secret doors!" Zhao Yu said.

So the two of them each took a piece of moonstone and carefully examined the surrounding walls of the cave.

At this time, the light of the moonstone dimmed, Chu Jun input a new moon power, and the moonstone immediately lit up again. Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly thought: "Since the moonstone can match the new moon power, should I How about using moonstone to create a flying sword?"

While Chu Jun was thinking about it, he knocked on the cave wall to see if there was any secret door or something.

Jam!

A set of bones was accidentally trampled by Chu Jun. Two thumb-sized objects crawled out from the leg bones, squeaking and squeaking with large pliers, and pounced on Chu Jun's thighs. Chu Jun frowned, raised his foot and stepped on it hard. When he took his foot away, he was surprised to find that the two dung beetle-like guys were not squashed, but launched an even more ferocious attack.

"Hey!" Chu Jun stepped down again and used the crescent moon's divine power to crush it a few times.

Bang bang, the two bugs suddenly exploded, white juice splashing. Chu Jun didn't expect it to be so loud and was startled.

"What happened?" Zhao Yu heard the noise and ran over quickly.

Chu Jun pointed at the "dung beetle" that was crushed and exploded on the ground, shrugged and said, "Two bed bugs, they exploded so loudly!"

Zhao Yu's face suddenly changed slightly when he saw the bug on the ground. He squatted down and looked at it carefully. Chu Jun noticed something was wrong and couldn't help but asked: "Yu'er, is there something weird about this bug?"

Zhao Yu stood up with a pale face. Chu Jun could see a hint of heart-shaking fear in her bright eyes, and said hurriedly: "What's wrong? Aren't they just two bugs!"

"This is a marrow-eating insect, an evil insect that specializes in devouring bone marrow!" Zhao Yu said lightly, and Jiao Xun actually trembled slightly.

Chu Jun raised his sword eyebrows and said comfortingly: "What's so scary about that...!" Chu Jun's voice changed before he finished speaking.

Swish, swish, swish!

It's like the drizzle hitting the bamboo leaves, but the sound is not beautiful and romantic at all, but terrifying and a reminder of death!

I saw the black marrow-eating worms crawling out from under the skeleton, and the rustling sound was the sound made by countless marrow-eating worms crawling together. These marrow-eating insects were like a black torrent, rushing towards Chu Jun and Zhao Yu.

Chu Jun's expression changed drastically. He had encountered a swarm of ants when he was training in a tropical jungle in his previous life. The terrifying scene at that time is still vivid in his mind. No animal can survive on the ground where the ants pass by. Even a ferocious lion will be devoured completely in a moment. No matter how strong you are, if you encounter an ant colony, you will have no choice but to run away. These little creatures are vulnerable when alone, but when thousands of them gather together, God cannot challenge their edge.

"Fire!" A word appeared in Chu Jun's mind. Fire was the best defense measure at this time.

Buzz!

The black iron sword in Chu Jun's hand suddenly became red and hot. Although Chu Jun had not yet cultivated the power of Xinyang, it was still easy to bring the flying sword to high temperatures. After all, it had absorbed a lot of the essence of the sun.

Clang!

The black iron sword struck the rocky ground, and sparks suddenly flew out. The ground actually caught fire, igniting nearby bones and the fire spread rapidly.

Chu Jun originally had the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that he actually succeeded.

Zhao Yu said in surprise: "How can rocks catch fire?"

The fire burned blazingly, and the marrow-eating insects were roasted until they exploded like popcorn. Countless people were burned to death in an instant, and those who came from behind turned around and ran away.

Chu Jun looked at the marrow-eating insects fleeing like a tide, and said happily: "So many people have died here, and their meat has dried and rotted here. The fat on their bodies... even the oil in the fat has naturally seeped into the rocks. It can ignite when exposed to high temperatures!”

When Zhao Yu heard that what was lit was actually dead man's oil, his stomach turned and he almost wanted to vomit it out.
