I took a deep breath, feeling physically nauseous.
That black cloud is not a black cloud.
Instead, it was the soul-eating insect that disappeared in the world of immortal cultivation.
As the name suggests, it is a very terrifying spirit insect, and every time it appears, it is a group led by an insect king. The soul-eating insect grows in a harsh environment and disappeared a long time ago.
If someone contracts a soul-eating insect king.
It is truly a deadly weapon that will make people extremely fearful.
This was the first time I finally gave up the idea of continuing.
There are plenty of resources in the secret realm, so there is no need to take risks just to create obstacles for the enemy. She cherishes her own life very much.
Xie Jiuniang stared at Gongsun Xue walking in the deep valley.
It has to be said that the geniuses from these great families are still somewhat lucky. Gongsun Xue plundered a lot of resources from the deep valleys during her travels and encountered some dangers from time to time, but she did not encounter any soul-eating insects.
This is also the reason why Xie Jiuniang is afraid of these geniuses.
They have just encountered a major crisis, but they still resort to various means...
Xie Jiuniang sent a message to the sword spirit, "Little bastard, stop digging for spirit stones for now. Come over to my place. I have something I want you to do."
"Master, let me dig a little more."
"Come here quickly and finish what I tell you to do, then you can continue digging."
"Hmph, what's going on?"
The sword spirit still came over obediently, with only a ray of light, so fast that it could not be seen by the naked eye. "Dog master, if you dare to fool me, I will never let you go. Never ending."
"I saw in the deep valley..."
Xie Jiuniang thought about the time when she smelled a strange fragrance before she saw the soul-eating insect in her precognition. She had not yet seen clearly what it was, but she had some idea in her mind, and then she used the means of precognition to know the specific situation and environment.
So, he told the sword spirit his thoughts.
Just let it do its own thing.
When the sword spirit heard that someone was going to cause trouble, he immediately promised to do it.
The broken sword flew into the miasma valley and headed straight for the location of the soul-devouring insect. The strange fragrance was not from a spiritual plant, but from a large piece of wood, which seemed to be the nest of the soul-devouring insect.
Xie Jiuniang knew that this wood that emitted a strange fragrance was a good thing.
But she was not greedy.
The broken sword body of the sword spirit grew larger, and it swept over, set up the entire nest of the soul-eating insects, and flew to the place indicated by Xie Jiuniang.
That is in front of Gongsun Xue.
Gongsun Xue lost her way in the gray fog, but cleverly followed a stream that ran across a deep valley.
Gongsun Xue, who was trapped in the gray fog in the deep valley, did not know the details, but Xie Jiuniang, who was outside, knew clearly that as long as Gongsun Xue kept walking along the stream, she could indeed get out of the miasma-filled valley.
As Gongsun Xue was walking, she smelled a strange fragrance.
Often the appearance of this strange fragrance represents opportunity.
Gongsun Xue was delighted and quickened her pace.
Xie Jiuniang's face was dark and deep, and she calmly watched Gongsun Xue walk step by step towards the soul-eating insect's nest.
The sword spirit had already slipped back, and boasted: "How was it? I did a good job, didn't I? I didn't make any noise."
"Yes, yes, it's quite impressive."
"That is, Master..."
Before Jian Ling finished speaking, Xie Jiuniang took over the conversation: "... Compared to me, you are just a little bit worse."
"Tsk tsk tsk, stop flattering me!"
The sword spirit shook, and it looked like it was about to hit its master on the forehead again. But at the critical moment, it saw the wooden stick she swung out and stopped its action in time, not continuing to commit suicide.
Just as Xie Jiuniang expected, Gongsun Xue encountered the soul-eating insect.
According to the previous prediction, Xie Jiuniang almost died when she encountered the soul-eating insect. It was the Time Treasure Leaf that came in handy and saved her soul, but it was still extremely dangerous.
Xie Jiuniang wanted to know whether Gongsun Xue could escape this disaster.
In fact, we really can't underestimate these geniuses.
He resisted the first wave of attacks from the soul-eating insects and prevented them from getting close.
Xie Jiuniang used her spiritual sense to investigate, and also looked at the sky, not getting close to Gongsun Xue, "Little bitch, is that her spiritual fire?"
"She has fire spiritual roots, so she should be performing fire-related magic."
"It won't be easy for her to maintain it." As soon as Xie Jiuniang finished speaking, she saw Gongsun Xue attack with fire magic and immediately escape along the stream.
The soul-eating insect kept chasing her.
Gongsun Xue's speed is not as fast as that of the soul-eating worm.
He was caught up before he got far!
Suddenly, a powerful divine pressure burst out from Gongsun Xue.
Xie Jiuniang was afraid of being discovered, so she quickly withdrew her spiritual consciousness and grabbed the broken sword. At the same time, she restrained her own breath and activated the invisibility talisman.
A wisp of divine soul appeared beside Gongsun Xue.
It was Wen Zhong Dao Jun.
He raised his hand and killed the group of soul-eating insects.
Soul-eating insects originally restrain the soul, so it was not easy for Taoist Master Wen Zhong to kill them. After sending the unconscious Gongsun Xue out of the valley, the wisp of soul that had transformed into a god also dissipated.
Xie Jiuniang narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Little bastard, has the soul-eating insect been destroyed?"
"Have you killed them all? I just checked, not a single one escaped." The sword spirit did not have much awe for the methods of the deity, but he was unable to deal with it now.
Xie Jiuniang pointed to the large piece of wood, which was the Soul Devourer's nest, and said, "Go and bring that up. I think it's a treasure. Although I don't know what it is, it can hold a Soul Devourer..."
"Wait a minute, I'll get it."
The sword spirit passed by quickly, and soon came up with a large piece of wood on the broken sword.
There are some tiny holes on the big wood, and a faint fragrance can be smelled from afar.
The closer you get, the more fragrant it becomes.
It makes people feel refreshed when they hear it. It is indeed a good thing.
Xie Jiuniang quickly put the wood into her storage ring.
She would study the details after leaving the secret realm. She was afraid that the strange fragrance would attract other people or monsters.
After a few leaps and bounds, Xie Jiuniang arrived at the edge of the valley.
There was a stream flowing out of the deep valley. As soon as you walked a little deeper into the gray fog, you could see skeletons everywhere, some of them were from monsters and some were from humans.
This area was still quiet, without any sound.
Xie Jiuniang came to Gongsun Xue's side and landed silently like a falling leaf.
Gongsun Xue seemed to be mentally injured and was unconscious for a while.
If Xie Jiuniang took action at this time, Gongsun Xue would definitely die.
But compared to killing Gongsun Xue, she wanted to let her experience the feeling of having her path to immortality cut off. For a cultivator, the most desperate thing is to have their path to immortality cut off, and it has to be cut off as if by accident.
Xie Jiuniang thought of the soul-chasing old woman.
It took her thousands of years to kill the geniuses of the major families.
The deaths of those people did not make anyone suspect her.
Recalling everything that happened in her past life, Xie Jiuniang didn't want them to die, so she used her soul skills to give Gongsun Xue another light blow on the origin of her soul.
Really, a very light blow.
Gongsun Xue's soul was further injured, and there was no sign of anyone's tampering.
And this kind of hurt is the origin of the soul.
It is almost impossible to recover unless there is a miraculous opportunity.
