It was unknown how long it had been before Ye Li woke up from his trance. Having just regained some consciousness, he sat up and looked behind him nervously.
It was not until he saw the corpses of two huge centipedes that he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and lay down heavily again.
Ye Li, lying on the ground, rubbed his forehead which was still a little painful, and couldn't help but recall what happened before.
At the last moment before midnight, he led two sickle centipedes into the rune secret area.
I originally thought that after coming in, the three would be separated and teleported to different places, just like the many family members who had entered the Rune Land trial before.
However, the actual situation was not as he expected. He and the two sickle centipedes behind him appeared on the same hillside when they came in.
What Ye Li didn't expect was that the rune secret land that seemed like a complete world turned out to be half-virtual when he came in.
Except for some land and plants, everything in the surrounding space is constantly decomposing into spiritual energy and dissipating throughout the space.
The moment he and the two centipedes appeared, the spiritual energy in the surrounding space rushed towards them, like huge waves, hitting him hard.
The Lingzhong Talisman on Ye Li's body was completely shattered in an instant, and the exploding spiritual energy barely protected Ye Li for a moment.
The two sickle centipedes behind him were roaring and swaying continuously under the impact of the spiritual energy wave, as if they were in great pain.
Seeing the second wave of spiritual energy coming, Ye Li continuously drew spiritual bell talismans, barely resisting the impact of waves of spiritual energy. It was not until the spiritual energy in his body was exhausted that he was finally knocked unconscious by the wave of spiritual energy.
He originally thought that he was dead, but unexpectedly he just woke up slowly. Apart from some pain in his body and the consumption of his spiritual power and spiritual energy which had not yet fully recovered, he was fine.
The surrounding space also stabilized. It seemed that the rune secret land would stop restoring its spiritual energy after someone came in.
Thinking of this, he suddenly sat up again, because he remembered that if he was not killed by the spiritual energy, then the sickle centipede behind him would be even safer.
Turning his head nervously, Ye Li looked at the two giant centipedes not far away. Upon closer inspection, the two centipedes seemed to have completely lost their lives.
Confused, he stood up carefully and walked towards the two huge sickle centipedes.
Ye Li, feeling somewhat nervous, walked very slowly. He stared at the centipede on the ground. As long as the centipede made the slightest movement, he would run away regardless of everything.
When they reached almost the same position, Ye Li saw that the sickle centipedes still had no reaction, so he casually fired a spiritual energy bullet and blasted it at one of the centipedes.
He suddenly stepped back a few steps and quietly observed the movements on the opposite side.
The spiritual energy bullet hit the head of one of the centipedes. The spiritual energy bullet was so weak that it seemed as if it had hit a steel wall. It only made a "puff" sound and completely dissipated into nothingness.
Under the impact of the spiritual energy, the centipede's head vibrated slightly for a moment, and then it stopped moving without any movement.
Seeing this scene, Ye Li was stunned for a moment, and finally gathered the little spiritual energy in his body and released a Twelve-Character Extreme Flame Finger.
The strong flame instantly shot onto the other centipede. Under the high temperature, the armor of the sickle centipede turned slightly red. However, the other centipede also did not move at all, and it seemed that it had been dead for a long time.
It was not until this moment that Ye Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and mustered up the courage to walk closer to the two centipedes.
After some inspection, he finally found that the two sickle centipedes were completely dead.
He was somewhat puzzled, and after pondering for a while, he said, "Could it be that the death of these two sickle centipedes was due to the restriction of the Rune Land on the Spiritual Mist Stage
I've heard before that the reason why only children in the Spiritual Mist Stage are allowed to participate in the trial is not because of the rules set by the major families, but because the Rune Secret Land has some restrictions on this, and people with cultivation above the Spiritual Mist Stage cannot enter at all.
I think that when the Rune Secret Land was about to close, the restrictions on the outside world were relaxed, so these two centipedes followed me in, but were repelled by the Rune Secret Land and killed here. "
At this point Ye Li suddenly understood that the previous waves of spiritual energy were not aimed at him at all, but were meant to kill the two sickle centipedes.
He was only affected by the spiritual energy wave, and he estimated that the spiritual energy wave had the ability to distinguish the target's strength, so he just fainted after being attacked by the spiritual energy and did not even suffer minor injuries.
After figuring it out, Ye Li looked at the two Spirit Sea Stage sickle centipedes in front of him, and a smile suddenly broke out on his face.
All demon beasts above the Lingwu stage have demon cores on their bodies, and the demon cores of demon beasts in the Linghai stage are far stronger than those in the Lingwu stage.
More importantly, he is only in the late Lingwu stage now. The demon pill of the Linghai stage monster is equivalent to being one major realm higher than him, so it must be of great benefit to him.
Thinking of this, Ye Li took out a talisman dagger that he had bought before, which was specially used to cut monsters.
Using spiritual energy to activate the talisman that enhanced the sharpness of the blade, Ye Li began to cut from the gaps in the scales on the sickle centipede's body.
Generally, after a monster dies, its body loses the support of its demonic power and its strength decreases a lot compared to when it is alive. However, his dagger is only a lowest-level talisman weapon, and its material and talisman are not strong. Therefore, it is helpless when facing the armor on the centipede.
Ye Li could only start cutting from the gap and peel off the armor on the centipedes piece by piece before he could go deep into their bodies to look for the demon pill.
After some effort, Ye Li finally found two demon pills under the chest armor of the sickle centipede. The armor on the chest of the sickle centipede is the hardest part of its body, and was also collected by Ye Li. It is considered a kind of casting material.
Ye Li cut off all the useful parts of the sickle centipede and put them into his Qiankun bag. These things could be exchanged for spirit stones, and he didn't want to waste them.
After dismembering the two sickle centipedes, Ye Li couldn't help but sigh. Before, the two monsters were chasing him and wanted to dismember him, but he didn't expect that in the end, he was the one who dismembered the two centipedes.
Sometimes there is no necessary connection between strength and weakness and victory or defeat. If you are not careful, a strong person will become the victim of the weak.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't help but think of the other two sickle centipedes that were led away by Ye Canglong and the others.
It is not known whether Ye Canglong and his companions have successfully escaped the pursuit of the Sickle Centipede. Now he is deeply trapped in the rune secret land and does not know how to get out.
