Chapter 649: Enslaving the Zerg
After a while, Lu Ye returned to the special building.
It was not that all the Zergs were killed, but that more and more Zergs gathered, which made Lu Ye feel threatened. In order to avoid any accidents, he had to hide back.
His thoughts were verified, and Lu Ye was undoubtedly excited.
But soon he found that things were not as simple as he thought.
Because of the short battle, he felt a little weak.
This kind of weakness was different from the weakness caused by the previous injury. It was more like a load caused by excessive consumption.
He immediately understood that although the special environment and his own state allowed him to have the means that only the great cultivators of the Sea of Gods could use in advance, in the final analysis, the foundation of his soul was still too weak.
Indeed, compared with the cultivators of the same realm, his soul power was extremely strong, but it was still not enough to support him to construct the divine pattern for a long time to kill the enemy.
In this environment, with such a physical state, if the spiritual power is consumed, you can swallow the elixir to replenish it, but if the soul power is seriously consumed or injured, you must consume the soul-washing water.
He had a limited amount of soul-washing water, and he had already taken a drop before, so Lu Ye was unwilling to continue taking it unless he had to.
In this way, this effective method of killing insects cannot be used frequently, otherwise once his soul-washing water runs out, there will be no fun at all.
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful, because in that short moment, he had gained nearly two thousand war merits. If he could use the divine pattern unscrupulously, then the speed at which he gained war merits would definitely reach an extremely terrifying speed.
There was the sound of insects hitting the doors and windows outside again, but Lu Ye was not panicked. This kind of building with lanterns hanging at the door was protected by a magical power and could not be destroyed no matter what.
As for where this magical power came from, Lu Ye also had the answer in his heart.
There was a lot of noise outside, and then it gradually quieted down. The intelligence of the insects was like this. Even if they saw Lu Ye rushing in here with their own eyes, they couldn't find him for a long time, so they gradually forgot about it and did what they should do at that time.
Lu Ye recovered silently in the house. When it was completely quiet outside, he waited for a long time before coming to the door and looking through the crack.
The bodies of the Zerg on the street had disappeared, and only the green blood spilled all over the long street showed the battle just now.
As for where the bodies of the killed Zerg went... they were naturally devoured by the living Zerg. Zergs, as long as there is energy, there is nothing they won't eat.
Lu Ye also experienced the Zerg tide in the Lingxi battlefield. Wherever the Zerg passed, all life was annihilated, and not even a blade of grass was left.
But then again, the presence of Zerg means there is a Zerg nest. Where is the Zerg nest in Xianyuan City?
Lu Ye immediately remembered the gap in the sky that he had seen before. From that gap, there were a steady stream of Zerg falling...
The Zerg nest may be in that gap!
Under normal circumstances, if you want to solve the Zerg, you have to destroy the Zerg nest first, so that you can solve the problem from the root, but the problem of Xianyuan City is obviously beyond Lu Ye's ability, so when he realized the location of the Zerg nest, he had no idea.
Apart from anything else, Xianyuan City has a forbidden air formation. He can only fly ten feet into the air. The gap in the sky is at least hundreds of feet away from the ground. Even if he is strong, he can't fly up.
There are still a few Zerg wandering on the street outside the door. Lu Ye has blessed himself with hidden and breath-retaining spiritual patterns, quietly opened the door, and walked out again.
The purpose this time is not to kill the Zerg, he wants to find a Zerg that agrees with his requirements.
No matter why he entered Xianyuan City, since he has come here, he can only find a way to gain some benefits.
Soul-washing water, the merits gained from killing Zerg, these are benefits that ordinary cultivators can hardly touch. While the crisis exists, it also means huge benefits.
The divine pattern cannot be activated all the time, otherwise it will consume too much energy. Although Lu Ye has the blessing of the hidden and breath-holding spiritual patterns, he can move quietly, but it is still very difficult to pass through the Zerg blockade to the City Lord's Mansion.
Moreover, in this state, he can't kill the Zerg to gain military merit.
To solve these problems, he can only take risky moves.
Lu Ye is not sure whether it will work, but he has to try everything.
Hiding his figure, walking through one street after another, seeing one Zerg after another, Lu Ye gradually figured out where he is now.
Probably the outermost part of Xianyuan City.
The scope of the entire Xianyuan City is still very large. When he came in with the cultivation of the eighth level of Lingxi, he couldn't walk through the entire Xianyuan City, so he didn't know how big it was.
But the current location of the center of Xianyuan City should be at the location of the gap in the sky.
It is worth mentioning that there are not many Zergs appearing at the gap in the sky now, maybe all the Zergs in the insect nest have been dispatched.
The Zerg's intelligence is not high, but its other abilities are difficult to guess. Basically, each different type of Zerg has a special strength.
Take the mantis Zerg that Lu Ye is most familiar with, for example. This is the one with the best fighting skills among all the Zerg he has seen. When the two boring knives are wielded, it is like a real swordsman.
And the Zerg that looks like a hound has an extremely sensitive sense of smell.
Even though Lu Ye now has the blessing of the Concealment and Breathing Spiritual Patterns, there have been several times when he was almost detected by this kind of Zerg, so basically whenever he encounters this kind of Zerg, he will stay away from it.
There is also a kind of Zerg that looks like a hedgehog, with sharp bone spurs all over its body, and almost no weaknesses. Facing such a Zerg, Lu Ye feels that he must use the soul attack to win, otherwise he has no way to start.
In addition, the kind of Zerg that Lu Ye encountered before, which looks pink, round and fat, like a pink silkworm, is full of poison all over its body, even the fine silk it spits out is extremely poisonous.
This kind of Zerg poses the least threat to Lu Ye. With the talent tree by his side, he is least afraid of poison, but this kind of Zerg is not only poisonous, but the silk threads it spits out can turn into a large net, which has the effect of restraining the enemy, which is very troublesome.
Along the way, Lu Ye also carefully noted down the buildings with lanterns hanging at the door that he encountered as a retreat.
In general, there are very few such buildings. Basically, there is only one within several streets.
After searching for two hours, Lu Ye finally found a Zerg that reluctantly agreed to his request.
It's not that he had never encountered it before, but most of them gathered together with other Zergs, so Lu Ye couldn't use his own methods.
Now he finally met a lone one.
This Zerg is not small in size. At first glance, it looks like an octopus spider. Its back and even its abdomen are protected by thick shells. Its ferocious mouthparts are like saw teeth, which makes people shudder.
Although he didn't fight with it, Lu Ye could still tell at a glance that it was a Zerg in the True Lake Realm.
The reason why he liked it was mainly because it was big enough and its back was spacious enough. In this way, after he hid his body, he could sit on it safely.
Of course, the premise is that his idea can be successfully implemented. If the situation is different from what he imagined, then all the subsequent plans cannot be carried out.
But it shouldn't be a big problem. The intelligence of the Zerg is a flaw. That kind of method may not have much effect on cultivators of the same realm, but if it is used against the Zerg, it must be effective.
He walked silently in the direction of the spider insect, and stood two meters in front of it.
This distance was already very dangerous. Even if the spider insect did not have a keen sense of smell, it would feel something was wrong at such a close distance.
But before it could react, Lu Ye had already revealed himself.
In an instant, Lu Ye's eyes met the compound eyes of the spider insect. Lu Ye's big hand pressed on the handle of the Panshan Knife, and his strength surged, ready to go. If something went wrong, he would immediately draw his knife and cut it down.
The spider insect's forelegs were also raised high. The hairy forelegs became extremely solid because they were covered with something that looked like white bones. Coupled with their own sharpness, the power of such a stab was no less than the full force of a True Lake Realm soldier.
The battle seemed to be imminent.
However, the spider insect's raised forelegs froze in mid-air and never fell. Not only that, the moment it discovered Lu Ye, its mouthparts were squirming and making a hissing sound, but now there was no sound at all.
Its originally lively compound eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust and gradually dimmed.
On the contrary, Lu Ye's eyes became brighter than usual. If you observe carefully, you can even see some extremely complex patterns in his eyes. Those many patterns converge and interlock to form a wonderful pattern.
Charming Divine Pattern!
Unlike spiritual patterns such as Sharp Guard, they are spiritual patterns when activated by spiritual power, and they are divine patterns when activated by the power of the soul.
But Charming is a divine pattern that can only be activated by the power of the soul.
Lu Ye got this divine pattern after killing the fox demon in Fox Fairy Valley and swallowing its Danhuo.
He thought that he would not be able to use this divine pattern before he was promoted to the Divine Sea Realm, but he did not expect that he would enter Xianyuan City again in this special state, allowing him to activate the power of the soul.
After verifying the changes of sharp and other spiritual patterns, Lu Ye wanted to try the power of Charming, and he already had a plan with this divine pattern as the core.
In the Fox Fairy Valley, the fox demon relied on his own talents to control nearly a hundred cultivators, including some at the ninth level of the Cloud River Realm.
The power that the Charming Divine Mark can exert is somewhat similar to the fox demon's talents, both of which can confuse people's minds and control their hearts, but it will not be as exaggerated as the fox demon's display.
You must know that when the giant armor faced the fox demon, the other party only gave a glance and the giant armor fell. The means that the fox demon used on the giant armor at that time were the same as what Lu Ye used on the spider insects today.
