The white ball was shining brightly, emitting rays of light, soft and bright, extremely magnificent. It was as if there were two moons hanging in the night sky, shining brightly and sprinkling the earth.
This is an egg that is pregnant with an innate spiritual being and exudes a sacred aura that people dare not violate.
Groups of demon wolves stopped at the end of the canyon, howling but not daring to come closer. They were very afraid of this place, as if it was the dividing line that divided the world into two.
"Ancient books record that there is a kind of innate spiritual beast that is conceived from the essence of heaven and earth. Its newborn cubs are extremely powerful and even human heroes cannot compete with them. After they grow up, they are as powerful as gods and extremely terrifying."
Han Tian recalled the ancient events. It was said that there was once an innate spiritual beast, which could be called a god. It unified the Samsara Continent and left behind a glorious history.
In that era, monsters became overlords, and humans became slaves and became food. They had no chance to turn over and lived in fear all day long. It was a dark period of history, and there were few records in historical records, but the Yan Sect was the top sect in Qinglongzhou and preserved some vague fragments.
Finally one day, a genius boy of the human race rose up. When he was young, he went alone to various dangerous places, killed all the beasts in the wilderness, and frightened the beasts. When he grew up, he fought against the innate spirit beasts alone. That battle was earth-shattering and shocking. All the people in the world suffered and the continent was split into several pieces.
In the end, this person killed the spirit beast and united the continents with his great magical power, but he himself died.
Hundreds of years later, the human race prospered and regained its position as the leader of all spirits, ruling the continent and making the beasts submit to it. To commemorate his glorious deeds, later generations honored him as the Great Emperor of Slaying Spirits.
“I don’t know what kind of spiritual beast this is, but we must not let it come into the world, otherwise the world will be in chaos again.” Han Tian was worried. He didn’t know what the appearance of this egg meant. Perhaps it was a warning to the world that a ferocious beast was about to rise.
The three of them walked over very slowly. This thing was too strange and had left many indelible scars on humans. They did not dare to be careless.
The little guy's eyes were shining like two little moons, and his heart was very eager, but he knew the importance of the matter and was not too impatient.
"Ouch..."
The wolves behind them howled, as if they were angry, or as if they were gloating. They looked at Baidan with only fear and awe in their eyes, nothing else. Then they gradually dispersed, devouring their dead companions and cleaning up the battlefield.
The demon wolves have a strong reproductive capacity, so this amount of casualties is nothing. Within two years, there will be even more.
They are extremely ferocious beasts that devour the corpses of their companions to strengthen themselves.
The whole canyon gradually became quiet, and this flat land was even quieter. Although it seemed safe, the three of them were frightened with every step, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. As they got closer and closer, it was as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on them. Their breathing became rapid, and it was difficult for them to move their feet.
"Damn it, I hate this atmosphere." Han Tian's face flushed and his body was surrounded by golden light, but he still couldn't dispel this oppression, making him irritated.
The two magical herbs swayed in the wind, sparkling with rosy clouds, with amazing spirituality. Waves of refreshing fragrance emanated, making people feel relaxed and refreshed both physically and mentally.
"This trip was not in vain. The little guy got the eggs, and my brother Wu and I picked elixirs. After refining them, my cultivation will definitely reach a higher level." Han Tian's eyes sparkled and he was drooling.
Wu Tian said solemnly: "There is something strange about this place. The innate spirit beast is very important. It is impossible for it to be here alone. It may be guarded by a ferocious beast."
The three men were getting closer and closer, only ten feet away from Baidan. The pressure was getting heavier and heavier. They felt uncomfortable all over, as if a big hand was holding them down. Their bodies were clumsy and their blood was surging.
“Bang!”
Just as he finished his words, the soil beneath the white egg suddenly exploded. Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and a huge creature appeared out of nowhere, with a murderous aura like a raging sea, rolling in.
The three men's faces changed drastically and they staggered back. Just a burst of momentum was enough to frighten them. They retreated uncontrollably ten feet before they could steady themselves.
After taking a closer look, Han Tian exclaimed.
"Fire Scorpion?!!"
This is a giant scorpion, three meters long, its body red as fire, and an abnormal heat permeates the sky and earth.
It was extremely ferocious, with flames all over its body. It had ten sharp claws under its belly, arranged in two rows, each two meters long. In the moonlight, they glowed with a creepy bloody light, and looked hideous and terrifying.
Its tail was two feet long, thin, with a black light flashing on the tip, gloomy and scary, and a sour smell filled the air. This was its venom, which melted bones and flesh and turned them into pus and blood, extremely scary.
"A relic left over from ancient times, guarding here from generation to generation. It is very difficult to deal with." Han Tian frowned. This poisonous scorpion was too terrifying and made people shudder.
"I roughly guess what's in this white egg. It might be the ancient scorpion that transformed here." Wutan guessed.
From the animal skin scroll he learned that most things are reincarnated, and some rare creatures are blessed with extraordinary fortune. They can directly shed their original bodies and give birth to new bodies. They can then be reborn and become a brand new self, transforming into an innate spiritual body.
"No wonder the little guy is so greedy."
"Roar"
The roar of the Fire Scorpion echoed through heaven and earth. A sound wave pierced through gold and split rock, and it came like a tide, swift and fierce. The place fell, and the earth sank and floated. It was a terrifying scene.
It has been guarding here for nearly a hundred years. It is cruel by nature and no invader can escape, making this place a dangerous place that no one dares to enter.
Several years had passed since the last attack, and it had not tasted fresh flesh and blood for a long time. Its eyes, as big as lanterns, were filled with blood that turned into a streak of light that covered half the sky.
In the sky, a blood moon hangs, with a faint blood light spreading. This place is like a Shura hell, dark and turbid.
The three men's ears were bleeding and they were terrified. The sound waves were too terrifying and there was no way to defend against them. If they continued, their eardrums would be broken.
Tearing off a piece of clothing and stuffing it into their ears, the three of them leaped up and quickly rushed away. They had to interrupt the sound waves, otherwise they would be shocked to death in no time.
Han Tian took a step forward and rushed up diagonally, like a flying golden dragon, his whole body shining with golden light, dazzling everyone's eyes. There was wind under his feet, and two small storms swirled, making a humming sound.
“Sizzle!”
A slender claw swung over, like the fang of a giant beast, sharp and capable of destroying everything. Han Tian failed and was knocked down, falling to the ground and spitting out blood.
Wu Tian's heart trembled. The Fire Scorpion was incredibly strong. Han Tian had fought with him for hundreds of rounds before, and was possessed by Sikong Lie's fighting spirit. But this moment, he couldn't even last a single round and was knocked down.
"Xiaotian!" Wutan shouted.
The two of them used to depend on each other, walked through thousands of miles of wilderness, visited countless dangerous places, and fought countless battles. Although they did not reach the realm of telepathy, they had a tacit understanding.
Wutan leapt up at lightning speed, and a long claw slashed across the sky violently and ferociously. The earth exploded and mud splashed, but he was not afraid of danger and was not impatient. He still rushed forward.
However, the little guy moved, and a black light burst out of its body. The place became pitch black and foggy. Then it jumped high, broke through the black fog, opened its mouth and bit its claws.
"Crackling" sounds were heard continuously, and the Fire Scorpion roared in pain. The little guy's teeth were so terrible that it actually bit off a piece directly, broke in the middle, and fell to the ground, making a heavy sound.
The Fire Scorpion was murderous and recognized the little guy's identity. There was a hint of solemnity in his pupils. Although the Sky-Swallowing Frog was small, it was incredibly powerful and its teeth were extremely sharp. Even this ferocious beast was a little afraid of it.
"Roar!" It roared, as if questioning why it should help humans.
The little fellow croaked, pointed at the white egg, and gestured a few times. The fire demon scorpion was immediately angry, and one of its sharp claws broke through the air and chopped down, and the void exploded with a little fire, which was extremely shocking. It wanted to kill this little beast that actually wanted to eat the innate spiritual creature.
The little guy flashed and slashed the air with his sharp claws. The earth shook violently and a piece of ground a foot in size rose from the ground and shot towards the distant mountain wall, creating a hole in it.
The little guy was extremely fast. After a few leaps, he came to the other sharp claw, opened his little mouth and started biting it. His mouth was very small, less than one-tenth of the sharp claw, but his efficiency was not bad at all. In almost the blink of an eye, the claw broke and fell off.
“Swish!”
A long tail came at it, with a black glow at the end and a sour smell filling the air. A drop of black liquid dripped down, black smoke rose from the ground, and a deep pit appeared. The little guy didn't confront it head-on, but his small body was as agile as a Jaguar. He turned around and got under the belly of the Fire Scorpion, avoiding the attack.
Although it is said to be slow, in fact, this series of attacks happened in an instant.
With the help of the little guy, Wutan successfully rushed to the front of the Fire Scorpion. He stomped his feet hard and soared into the air. There was no amazing aura, but there was a domineering aura that made people submit.
The Fire Scorpion roared, and the sound waves were like the sea, overwhelming the sky. Blood gushed out of Wu Tian's ears, his head was buzzing, and he felt dizzy, but he did not retreat but advanced, punching out with a strong force, like a wild horse running out of control.
The force was violent and fierce. Blood spurted out of the Fire Scorpion's mouth. Several black fangs broke immediately and spurted out along with the blood.
"Roar!"
The fire scorpion was completely enraged, and its two claws fell down fiercely, like two sharp swords, emitting fiery flames. This place suddenly exploded, and the cracks extended to the distant mountain wall.
"puff!"
Wutan shook his body and dodged one claw, but was not spared and was hit in the chest by the other claw, leaving a bloody hole on both sides, with blood gushing out.
Seeing this, the little guy chirped angrily, turned into black lightning, and bit at the sharp claw, breaking the claw in the middle. Wutan was able to escape, and without hesitation, he retreated frantically.
The little guy hesitated for a moment, raised his three huge claws, blinked provocatively at the fire scorpion, and then left in a hurry. From beginning to end, it did not suffer any injuries, which was really incredible.
Although the Fire Scorpion is a relic of ancient times, after dozens of generations of inheritance and the wash of time, its blood is no longer pure and its cultivation has not reached its peak, so it has no way to deal with the little guy.
