Qi Zixiao felt that even if his side was really lacking in strength, Heaven should still give them some consideration.
But she didn't know where this care was reflected.
Or rather, no one knows.
······
"Brother."
As Tang Zihui was tracking, he whispered, "The people from Zifu are coming."
"I've discovered it." Jiang Tao was a little depressed. The consciousness of both parties "scanned" each other, so naturally they could discover that someone was coming.
But at this moment, he was unwilling to give up: "Keep tracking!"
"Everything should be based on first come first served. We should go first when slaying demons and monsters. Don't think that she can do whatever she wants just because she is the Saint of Purple Mansion."
"What do the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of our Great Yan Holy Land have to fear?"
"But..." Tang Zihui hesitated and said, "The extra person seems to be the Saint of Yaochi."
"So what?!"
"Yes, brother."
The six people were all a little unhappy, but no one was willing to back down now. They tracked all the way, passing through many villages and chasing for tens of thousands of miles before finally arriving here.
Seeing that the 'evil demon' is not far away, who would be willing to give up? !
"They've been following us, what on earth do they want to do?"
After walking forward for dozens of miles, Jiang Tao found that Qi Zixiao and his group had been following behind slowly. He was a little puzzled, but at this moment he couldn't take the initiative to provoke them.
Until Tang Zihui stopped and fixed his eyes on a small hill in front of him: "Senior Brother..."
Jiang Tao narrowed his eyes slightly: "Let's go!"
They accelerated instantly and blasted a hole in the mountain. As expected, they found that the mountain was hollow and found a...
Glowing eggs!
"What is this?"
One person was puzzled and went forward to check.
"Be careful."
Jiang Tao scolded.
"Brother, don't worry. This should be the egg of some kind of monster or beast?" The man stepped forward and circled around the egg a few times: "But I have never seen an egg like this before."
“I haven’t seen it in any books!”
"Maybe it has mutated." Tang Zihui pondered, "Seeing that it has been emitting fluorescent light, it must be very extraordinary."
"Perhaps they are descendants of the ancient species?"
"strangeness!"
After guessing, she said puzzledly: "My tracking method has never been wrong. Logically, the thing should be in the belly of this mountain, but now it is nowhere to be found. Only this egg is left."
"It can't be that this egg destroyed those villages and committed a blood debt, right?"
"Junior Sister Tang is joking."
The person near the glowing egg smiled and said, "An egg can travel thousands of miles to kill people, and then find a place to bury itself?"
"Perhaps this egg was found by the evil demon and hidden here, but now the evil demon is away?"
"That's why you've come all the way here, because it has been here before."
"Maybe." Tang Zihui nodded gently: "But I still think there is something wrong with this place, Brother, I think we should..."
"Take the egg away, then hide nearby and ambush!"
"Since the evil demon left such an important egg here, it will definitely come back."
Is their guess 'reasonable'? Absolutely correct.
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciple of Dayan Holy Land who was close to the egg naturally did not hesitate and directly reached out to take the egg away.
However, the moment his hand touched the eggshell, his expression changed drastically.
"ah?!"
He was shocked.
A huge suction force came from the eggshell, firmly adhering his hand to the eggshell. At the same time, the true essence, blood, and even the soul in his body were being devoured and absorbed by the egg!
"save···"
"Save me."
His face was filled with pain, and he howled miserably: "Brother? Save me!!!"
This sudden change startled everyone.
Jiang Tao was a cultivator in the Void Refining Stage after all. He reacted the fastest and was the first to come to his senses. He shouted angrily, "Help!"
He took action, wanting to cut off the brother's hand and save him, but after he drew his sword, he was still one step too late.
“Save me!!!”
The tragic cries for help were still echoing in the mountain.
However? The person is still nowhere to be seen.
Only a set of clothes fell helplessly, and the treasures contained in his body fell to the ground with a clink.
people···
Gone!
Not only the body, but even the spirit and the Nascent Soul were gone without a trace.
"Be careful, stand back!"
Jiang Tao's face changed and he shouted loudly.
Tang Zihui and the other four had never seen such symptoms before, so they naturally did not dare to get close and retreated one after another.
"How, how could this happen?!"
A female cultivator trembled all over: "Chen, where is Senior Brother Chen?"
"He is also a cultivator in the Spirit Severing Stage. How could his soul and spirit be destroyed in such a short time? What the hell is this egg?"
"Monster!"
How could Jiang Tao not figure it out at this moment? !
"I'm afraid this ghost thing is a monster, or maybe the evil heretic slaughtered those villages just to cultivate this egg!"
"But now it seems that this egg is even more terrifying."
“It must be destroyed!”
From Paradise Island to Hell.
A moment ago, everyone thought that this was a great treasure, perhaps a mutated ancient species or something. If they took it back to hatch and cultivate it, it would be a great assistant!
But now it seems that the assistant is just a useless one!
This is so fucking scary, it's clearly a 'monster'!
That is to say, after hoarding 'Senior Brother Chen', the egg calmed down, otherwise, who knows what would have happened.
"I urge you to stop."
It was at this time that the Saint Lady Squad arrived.
The divine fortune teller said sternly with his shiny forehead: "You are no match for it, so you'd better retreat quickly."
"What nonsense!"
Jiang Tao was in shock and anger, and was very indignant when he heard this.
"We, the righteous cultivators, must kill such monsters!"
"Besides, my Junior Brother Chen died at the hands of this monster. How can we retreat?!"
"Are you trying to steal our credit for slaying the demon?"
"madness!"
The fortune teller cursed, "You guys still want to slay the demons? And you want credit? I'm afraid you're just giving your heads to the demons."
"Want to be part of this shit and go against us, huh?"
In the eyes of the fortune teller, these guys are simply stupid to the extreme.
Is it really so unpredictable
"Why should we, the disciples of Dayan, tell others what to do?!"
Jiang Tao's face turned green. Damn it, we are all disciples of a holy land, and you, Zifu, are not much nobler than us. Why do you scold me like that
If it weren’t for your Saint Lady, I would have taken action!
But, there are no ifs.
Therefore, he could only move out the Dayan Holy Land.
"you···"
The fortune teller wanted to say something, but Qi Zixiao shook his head to stop him: "Forget it, good words can't persuade the damned ghosts, let's just see how they kill the demons."
After that, Qi Zixiao said to Jiang Tao: "My fellow Daoist from Dayan, you don't have much time. If you can't destroy this thing within half an hour, then retreat."
"Don't say that this Saint didn't give you a chance."
Jiang Tao was dissatisfied.
But facing Qi Zixiao, he really didn't dare to act recklessly, not to mention that this was indeed an opportunity, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay!"
"But at this moment, please leave!"
Qi Zixiao nodded slightly.
The group of eight people retreated to the outside of the mountain and watched intently.
“Your Highness, they…” Lu Ming was a little confused: “If they really become the food for the evil demon, I’m afraid…”
"Yes, Sister Zixiao." Lu Yao also chirped, "I don't think they can do it either. Will they become an obstacle for us?"
"perhaps."
Qi Zixiao was also unsure, and said, "But I can't see through this egg, blind man, how about you?"
The divine fortune teller's eyes shone with golden light.
"There's a person growing inside."
He frowned and said, "It's hard to see clearly, but it will probably take some time to fully develop successfully."
"Strength... hard to say. It seems to be a completely different cultivation system from ours."
“It’s hard to say what the specific means are.”
"Let them explore the way, maybe it will be of some use."
"That's it."
Qi Zixiao nodded slightly.
No one else had any opinions, except Fatty Dan, whose eyes rolled around, and then whispered, "What do you think if I refine it into a pill?"
"I've heard that some evil alchemists use living people to make pills, and some even use the lives of a city to make a 'big pill'!"
"This thing from outer space, I don't know how effective it is."
After hearing this, Lu Ming felt very good: "Brother Dan, how about letting me kill him and take revenge, and then you can make the elixir?"
“···”
The divine fortune teller refused and said, "Not so good!"
"If I can refine a glass body..."
Everyone: “…”
······
Inside the mountain.
Jiang Tao was extremely alert and walked around the egg several times, but he found no clues and could not find any weaknesses.
Tang Zihui's face turned pale: "Brother, what should we do?"
"At this moment, we only know that if we make physical contact, we will be devoured by it." Jiang Tao pondered, "Then we should not make physical contact!"
"Attack with magic!"
"However, you all need to be prepared. If you see that the situation is not good, remember to turn around and run away!"
No one is born a reckless man, and few people are fools.
Jiang Tao was not reckless enough to repeat the same mistake. After a brief discussion, they all took action and bombarded the monster egg with "long-range attack" spells.
However, when the spell came into effect, the surface of the strange egg was like ripples on the water, with circles of ripples spreading out.
Afterwards, all the spells were like a stone sinking into the sea, without any trace of life.
On the contrary, the light emitted by that strange egg became brighter.
“Stop it now!”
Even if you don't know the principle, after seeing this scene, you will know that the spell is useless, and it actually "charges" people.
Jiang Tao's expression gradually became serious: "The spell won't work."
"So it seems that this monster can not only devour other people's spirit, but also devour their energy?"
Spells are also energy! A large number of spells were blasted over and directly "swallowed" by it, and used to replenish itself. This is not difficult to see.
"In that case, the only option left is physical attack."
Jiang Tao is analyzing.
Qi Zixiao and others outside the mountain were also analyzing the situation.
There is too little information about this strange egg, so we can only analyze it step by step.
The Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils are powerful, but it is impossible to know all the abilities of the opponent with just one look! Otherwise, it would not be a pupil technique, but an invincible technique.
How could one know all of the other person's abilities at a glance
"It depends on what they choose."
Qi Zixiao whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Tao took out a flying sword, and slowly approached with the sword in his hand.
He seemed a little cautious.
At this moment, only Jiang Tao himself knew that he regretted it a little...
Regret showing off!
This strange egg was beyond their understanding. They had never heard of or seen such a thing that could "eat people" and devour all kinds of energy.
This thing can be swallowed just by slashing it with a flying sword or using sword energy or something like that.
So, you can only hold the sword, get close and attack.
But what if something unexpected happens
Jiang Tao was a little scared, but it was too late to regret.
Besides, you still have to save face.
He plucked up his courage, moved closer step by step with the flying sword in hand, and then chopped it down with great force!
bite!
It was not swallowed, and no accidents happened. The sword hit the strange egg with tenacity. The eggshell vibrated and the sound of collision was heard.
fine.
Jiang Tao let out a long sigh and showed a little joy.
But the next moment, he was stunned.
The flying sword suddenly made a cracking sound and broke into two pieces at the point of collision!
"this?!"
He was so shocked that he flew back.
Almost at the same time, a bright light appeared on the eggshell, and then there was a loud explosion...
"run!"
Jiang Tao was in a state of panic.
Tang Zihui and others ran away.
However, it was too late!
The light swept across, covering the entire mountain. When the light gradually dissipated, where was the trace of human beings in the mountain
Be it Jiang Tao, Tang Zihui and others, they all disappeared without a trace.
All that was left were clothes on the floor and a magic weapon that had been left without an owner.
"All dead?"
Lu Ming's face turned pale and he was terrified.
This strange egg is so weird!
If he were to track it down by himself, it would take some time and effort, but he should be able to find this place.
But at that time, regardless of whether this strange egg had evolved successfully, even if it was still in its current state, I would definitely die!
"blind."
Gou Sheng smacked his lips and said, "I believe it now. Your calculations are damn accurate!"
Although judging from the current situation, he is not completely without any solution, but this is just an eggshell!
Does anyone really think that once the eggshell is broken, the other party will be finished
The ghost thing inside is obviously more powerful!
At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Qi Zixiao. There was no way around it. Qi Zixiao's strength was definitely the strongest among the eight of them, no doubt about it!
At least... on the surface.
But at this moment, Qi Zixiao was eager to complain.
It's too much!
She was speechless.
This is the core disciple of the Great Yan Holy Land, a cultivator in the Refining Void Stage? Isn't this too much? !
It even gave her a sense of déjà vu of "Kunai stabbing Susanoo"...
This kind of operation is really hard to understand.
He's a core disciple after all, how could he be so useless
Even if you run 800 meters away and throw the sword hard, it will be fine! Look at Kakuzu throwing shuriken from 800 miles away. He lived for so long, but Danzo, the scapegoat, died directly because of stabbing Susanoo with a kunai...
What's more, as a cultivator in the Void Refining Stage, it would be easy for you to throw the sword eight thousand meters, let alone eight hundred meters!
Facing everyone's gaze, she took a deep breath and said, "Anyway, no matter what, we have to break this eggshell first!"
"Energy attacks are ineffective. Physical attacks should work, but that's not what I'm good at."
This is a bit confusing.
energy!
The various means used by Purple Air Coming from the East are "energy attacks", and the lightning and sword energy of the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder are also energy.
Even the extremely high temperature of the artificial solar fist is energy.
"But I never thought that anyone could be truly 'magic immune'."
Qi Zixiao whispered: "The reason why it is immune is only because the magic attack is not strong enough. This thing..."
Can it withstand the hundreds of millions of degrees high temperature of the artificial sun fist
She couldn't say for sure.
Because she has watched a lot of science fiction and doomsday movies and novels.
Take Godzilla for example, a nuclear bomb is just a power bank to it!
To some extent, these monsters in the world of immortal cultivation are much more powerful than Godzilla. What if an artificial sun fist doesn't reach the limit of its magic immunity and it turns into a power bank
Therefore, simply using the artificial sun fist is not enough, we need to add some other means!
"Fatty."
Qi Zixiao pondered and said, "Give me some of your biochemical pills."
"How much?"
Fatty Dan immediately took out a storage bag and was about to pour out...
When the others saw this, their faces twitched and their eyelids twitched: "You, how much have you practiced?"
"Not much."
Fatty Dan grinned, "I just like to feed the Ink Blood Toad with supplements when I have nothing to do on weekdays. The more I feed it, the faster its innate magical powers will recover."
"Every time it recovers, I refine one furnace. Now it's less than a small storage bag. It's not much, really not much."
Everyone: “!!!!”
A small storage bag, with a space of about three meters in radius.
A biochemical pill is about the size of a pea, less than a storage bag? ? ?
"Then give me more!"
Qi Zixiao pondered: "Since this thing likes to swallow energy, then mix some biochemical pills into the energy."
"In fact, biochemical pills are also a kind of energy, not just gas and taste." Fatty Dan emphasized.
"That would be great!"
"Please treat him to a good meal!" Qi Zixiao's eyes lit up.
Gou Sheng coughed dryly: "Ahem, Your Highness, you are really... mean."
"Not damaged at all." Lu Ming interrupted immediately, "That's how it should be!"
Fatty Dan became more interested when he heard this: "How about I get some more poison pills?"
"That's not necessary!"
poison
It would be even more difficult if you maxed out their poison resistance or gave them the "poison attribute".
Grabbing a handful of biochemical pills, Qi Zixiao secretly said in his heart: "Heaven, oh Heaven, you have to be more biased towards us..."
"go!"
When the biochemical pill was thrown out, purple air lingered. She condensed the purple air from the east into an illusory sledgehammer and smashed it down!
Smash the 'golden' egg!
Bang!
All the biochemical pills exploded, and green gas instantly filled the entire mountain.
At the same time, the hammer fell.
Buzz...
A black light flashed on the surface of the strange egg, and then the terrifying suction force reappeared.
In just a moment, the 'sledgehammer' and all the energy in the belly of the mountain were swept away~!
Qi Zixiao and others immediately showed joy, and then looked on eagerly, waiting for the result.
Almost the next second.
The strange egg trembled suddenly~
Then, the trembling continued.
The egg naturally has no sense of smell, but don't forget, there is a 'person' being nurtured in this egg~!!!
