MTL - I Try To Become An Immortal Through Mortal Science-Chapter 1257 depths of black mist
Chapter 1257 Deep in the Black Mist
After flying away like this for several hours, Luo Hong and his party soon saw Mrs. Li surrounded by butterflies.
Compared with before, this mayfly elder is no different, his cultivation is still in the early stage of integration, and he has not made any progress.
But this is also normal. Among the dozens of combined monks in the human race, 70% are just early-stage monks. Late-stage monks like Luo Hong are rare!
Even in the original time and space, the seat of Tianmiao Linghuang was not determined by Luo Hong, but in the end it was taken away by a female cultivator in the middle stage of fusion.
Although the Mayfly clan is powerful, their fusion is already close to the apex of the spiritual level in the spirit world. Only by obtaining the treasures of natural materials and earthly treasures suitable for them can they have a higher probability of making great progress in cultivation.
So, it is normal for even the elders of the mayfly clan to be trapped to death in the early stage of fusion.
Relying on Luo Tianzhou's ability to hide, Luo Hong and the others were suspended hundreds of feet away from Madam Li, but she didn't notice it.
After waiting for a while, two streaks of light, one purple and one red, flew from the sky.
fell on the front and back of Mrs. Li at the same time, and the two immediately revealed the figures of Zi Youzi and the withered old man.
"What a strong vitality! Fellow Daoist Luo, that old man should not be underestimated!"
The moment she saw the withered old man, Xin Sanniang seemed to see a **** sun, her eyes were so irritated that she almost shed tears, so she quickly reminded.
"It's a bit like a **** soul, huh? Silence!"
After sensing for a while, Luo Hong suddenly felt that the other party's aura was somewhat similar to a secret technique recorded in a classic book he had read in Thunder Continent.
But before he could think too much, his divine sense noticed that the other party had changed.
In an instant, Luo Hong's eyes were fixed, and while ordering everyone, he quickly drove Luo Tianzhou away from the spot!
The next moment, a large number of blood-colored beetles shot out from the opponent's cuffs, and immediately covered a large area where Luo Tianzhou was just now like a shower!
"What's wrong, brother?"
Seeing the withered old man attack suddenly, Zi Youzi immediately became nervous, but his spiritual sense swept around, but he didn't find any trace of the enemy.
"I just vaguely feel that something is wrong there. Now it seems that it should be just an illusion."
Even though the haggard old man said so, his eyes were still glowing with aura as he swept around, and only after a few breaths did he really relax.
Immediately, he flipped his palm and took out a blood-colored compass inlaid with black crystals.
After confirming the direction, he immediately yelled "go" in his mouth, and fled towards the black mist.
As soon as the three of them moved, ten black shadows burst out of the place where Mrs. Li was originally standing, and they also followed closely.
Seeing this scene, Luo Hong and Han Li in Luo Tianzhou couldn't help but glance at each other, because those ten black shadows were exactly the mayfly soul-splitting puppets they had seen when they were in the land of the Styx.
In other words, although these ten puppets only have the aura of the late stage of refining, but if they are really anxious, they can all burst into combat power close to the early stage of fusion!
"Fellow Daoist Luo, they are about to enter the black mist, shall we follow?"
Liu Qing had a false alarm, and immediately realized how powerful the withered old man was.
After all, she had tried it before, and with her late stage consciousness, she couldn't even detect Luo Tianzhou who was hiding in hiding!
Although this haggard old man didn't fully discover Luo Tianzhou, just being aware of it shows that his spiritual consciousness is close to that of a Mahayana monk.
"In terms of spiritual consciousness alone, among us, only the Linghuang can slightly overwhelm him!"
Liu Qing commented secretly.
"Let's see how they deal with the black mist."
Luo Hong has a good relationship with the mayfly clan, but if the other party is sneaky, I'm afraid it's not doing something good.
At this time, even if you are an acquaintance, it is definitely not wise to expose yourself!
While speaking, the three of Zi Youzi had already reached the edge of the black mist.
Seeing the aura together, blood flames rose from the three of them and those soul-split puppets.
Just take a closer look, and you will know that it is a piece of blood jade hanging around their waist that is casting supernatural powers.
As the blood flames rose, the black mist that had slowly gathered around immediately shrank back quickly like burnt fingers.
"Afraid of fire? That's easy."
Luo Hong murmured to himself when he saw this, and then the scarlet golden Heavenly Wolf Divine Fire gushed out from his right palm.
The fire didn't change form, and immediately submerged into the ceiling in the form of a pillar of fire.
The next moment, Luo Tianzhou's surface was covered with a layer of red gold spiritual flame.
If they need to use other means to resist the black mist, it is likely to conflict with Luo Tianzhou's hidden powers, making them unable to continue tracking.
But the black mist right now can be driven back with the scorching spiritual flame, and the Sirius Divine Fire has the ability to restrain Qi, so it can directly get the best of both worlds!
"Looking at the appearance of the blood-clothed old man, it seems that he is going towards a certain treasure in the black mist. His goal is likely to be the same as Fellow Daoist Heifeng. Let's follow up to confirm the situation first.
If you don’t find any traces of Fellow Daoist Heifeng, then it’s as if you haven’t met them. "
After finishing speaking, Luo Hong drove Luo Tianzhou to escape into the black mist, following closely behind everyone from the Mayfly clan.
At the same time, in the valley on the other side, the red-haired dolphin, who was full of food and drink, had gathered a group of refining subordinates.
"Old question, you were the one who urged me just now, and you are the one who is procrastinating now. Have you finished that crap?"
In front of the stone house, the red-haired dolphin smashed the ghost-headed sword that was almost as long as itself on the ground, and was very speechless at the moment.
"What do you know, although the aura of the Yuan Devourer is mixed and abnormal, it actually hides the law. If you only imitate a surface, you can't hide it from the combined level of Yuan Devourer in the depths of the forbidden area.
Zhu Ben, if you don’t want to waste your time fighting those body-phagating beasts, why don’t you come here? Haha, it's done! "
After some irritated reprimands, there was a surprise cry from inside the stone house.
Immediately there was a "bang", and the newly repaired stone gate shattered into **** again.
The next moment, the white-faced old man held an egg-shaped crystal ball made of many strange-faced soul stones, and appeared in front of a group of monks from the Jiayu tribe.
"Can this thing fool those king-level Yuan Devouring Beasts?"
Zhu Ben looked at the inconspicuous crystal ball with strange faces, and couldn't help but wonder.
Because there is still no way to resolve the relationship between the toxins in the king-level Yuan Devouring Beast, so for the monks of the Jiapi Clan, these guys are far less valuable than those low-level, edible Yuan Devouring Beasts.
However, the strength of the king-level Yuan Devourer is still very strong, so thankless, Zhu Ben is naturally unwilling to have a conflict with it.
But Zhu Ben didn't believe that those difficult king-level Yuan Devourers could be blinded by just a single crystal ball with invisible aura!
"Oh? Then look at the old man now!"
The fat old man just chuckled when he heard the words, and then injected a burst of mana into the strange face crystal ball above his palm.
Suddenly, the densely packed strange faces on the crystal ball came to life at the same time, squirming and wriggling, as if they wanted to squeeze out from the surface of the crystal ball.
With the change of the crystal ball, a powerful devouring breath emanated out, which immediately made Zhu Ben, who had a lazy face, look serious instantly, and even subconsciously pulled out the big knife inserted into the ground!
"How? Believe it now?"
Seeing that everyone reacted exactly as he expected, the white-faced old man immediately expressed complacency and said.
"Old question, are you really so sure that the devouring power in the forbidden area comes from a fallen true spirit, maybe it is the unique law of this world?"
Zhu Ben didn't answer at the moment, but said solemnly.
At the beginning, their Jiajin clan suddenly broke faces with the mayfly clan in this world, because the old man in front of him proved to the elder that it was possible to reconcile the devouring power in the devouring beast.
The power of devouring is a very powerful supernatural power, but it is also very dangerous.
The ghostly appearance of the devouring beast is caused by the loss of control of the devouring power, so the Jiajin clan has always been very cautious in the development of blood power.
It is not easy to say whether the source of the devouring power in the forbidden area is a blessing or a curse. Maintaining the status quo and obtaining long-term benefits is actually the best choice for the Jiajin clan.
Individuals can take risks, but groups require stability!
"The law of heaven cannot be entrusted to living things. Those black mist contain vitality, and Fellow Daoist Zhu is also clear, so why bother to ask now."
The white-faced old man also suddenly became serious and authentic.
"Hehe, Laowen, since you have made up your mind, our clan will not renege on your word and lose weight.
But according to the agreement, the source of devouring can only be used by you to comprehend the cycle of the great catastrophe once, and our family will take it back afterwards! "
Zhu Ben suddenly grinned at this moment, making the tense atmosphere disappear immediately.
Immediately afterwards, he raised the ghost-headed sword and shouldered it on his shoulder, and then called everyone to set off.
"It is enough to comprehend it, the way of devouring, the way of nine-headed heroism, is the only way for me to ask heaven in this life!"
It turned out that this white-faced old man known as "Old Wen" was the real Wentian who had a lot of fate with Luo Hong!
Muttering a word to himself, he soared into the sky along with the dozens of escaping lights, and headed towards the black mist forbidden area at high speed.
"chirp!"
Accompanied by a mournful cry, on the vast black mountain range, an alienated and ugly strange bird was cut in half by a blood wheel.
Immediately, the blood rained down, and the madness in the eyes of the strange bird quickly dissipated, and two huge bird corpses smashed down two black hills one by one!
"Go, you can't stay here for long!"
With a flash of blood, the withered old man returned to Zi Youzi and the others. Even though he had just killed a king-level Yuan Devourer, his aura was still not disturbed at all.
Zi Youzi and the others agreed after hearing the words, so instead of continuing to flee deeper into the black mist.
And not long after they left, all kinds of weird roars came from all directions.
The next moment, several king-level Yuan Devouring Beasts appeared in the sky and on the ground. As soon as they arrived, they all rushed towards the two bird corpses, tearing and devouring them!
"Obviously knowing that just killing them will greatly increase the strength of the other ancient beasts, why didn't they burn the bird carcass?"
Looking at the crazily eating scene below, Liu Qing frowned and raised questions.
"Fairy Liu, I'm afraid you haven't noticed that as soon as the strange bird died, black mist began to overflow from the body.
If there weren’t these ancient beasts rushing to devour it, the concentration of black mist in this area would have increased greatly. I think that’s what those Daoists of the mayfly clan are guarding against! "
Han Li was also staring at the ancient beast below, but he had already realized that the black mist that could be driven back by the spiritual flames was probably the biggest terror here.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, the number of these weird ancient beasts is increasing and their strength is getting stronger and stronger. Should we continue to follow them?"
The powerful and crazy breath of the king-level Yuan Devourer impacted Ye Ying's Yuanshen, making her hesitate to continue to go deep into the black mist.
After all, until now, they haven't found any trace of the Black Phoenix Demon King in the black mist.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, look there!"
However, as soon as her words fell, Mo Yi suddenly pointed to a rock below and exclaimed.
Everyone looked away immediately, only to see a piece of jet-black rock with a man-made pattern on it.
"Black Phoenix secret pattern? Fellow Daoist Mo, what does this secret pattern mean?"
With just one glance, Luo Hong recognized that it was the unique secret pattern of the Black Phoenix Clan.
When he first came to the spirit world in the past, he had become a black phoenix envoy because of it, so he was very impressed.
"Ban burning! This secret pattern is to prohibit our monks from displaying their natal black flames!"
Mo Yi replied immediately.
"I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Heifeng will leave a message here because she has already got her way. Could this be the reason why she is trapped here?"
Xin Sanniang couldn't help guessing right now.
"Regardless of whether it is true or not, since we have already discovered the trail of Fellow Daoist Heifeng, we can only continue to follow it!"
Since entering the black mist, Luo Hong felt a faint sense of unease in her heart, and the closer she got to the central area, the stronger this unease became, like a beast that fell into a trap and was still approaching the noose.
Fortunately, there is someone standing in front of them to fight the thunder for them. Otherwise, according to Luo Hong's temperament, this kind of weird and mysterious place will not go deep into this weird and mysterious place without first using the time phantom to self-destruct for a round!
In this way, relying on Luo Tianzhou's ability to hide, Luo Hong and the others continued to follow behind Zi Youzi and his party, watching them kill all kinds of alienated ghost beasts blocking the way, until a black lake came into everyone's eyes.
This is a huge depression located among the mountains. The lake of Heishui does not have any ripples, and it looks dead silent.
But in the middle of the giant lake, Luo Hong and the others saw the first plant since they entered this secret realm!
I saw a giant tree with black tumors on its trunk standing in the middle of the huge lake.
At first glance, the branches and leaves of this thousand-foot giant tree are extremely luxuriant, but when you look closely, you can find that the hundreds of branches branching from the main trunk are all slender arms!
And those leaves, each with black runes flickering on and off, swallowing the surrounding black mist.
"The Patriarch!"
Suddenly, Mo Yi, who was originally sitting cross-legged beside Luo Hong, suddenly stood up, and his eyes reflected Xiao Guan who was wrapped in black tree tumors, with only one head exposed!
The missing black phoenix demon king turned out to be planted in the hands of a strange tree!
PS: It's a bit of a calvin, the second update will be later.
