Chapter 185
Ye Tong stopped Dong Xueyan, and instead of continuing to follow her, she dug out four thumb-sized red crystal nuclei from the eyes of the two living corpse puppets.
"What's this?"
Ye Tong asked Dong Xueyan.
Dong Xueyan said in a daze: "The soul core is a special ore that can carry the power of the soul, while evil cultivators like to extract other people's souls and seal them in the soul core, which will be used to refine things like living corpse puppets in the future. .”
Ye Tong asked in amazement: "If a person's broken soul is sealed here, can he still have self-awareness?"
Dong Xueyan explained: "At first, there will still be self-awareness, but after a long time, the consciousness will collapse, and eventually become muddled, so that only a mass of pure soul energy remains."
Ye Tong murmured, "This is too vicious."
Dong Xueyan curled her lips and snorted coldly: "There are far more vicious things than this. You are like a flower bud in a greenhouse now, and you have not seen the cruelty and danger of the outside world."
"I'm Huaguduo?" Ye Tong was speechless.
How could Ye Tong have never seen it before? He has seen too many murderous and ruthless people. He has seen even the scenes of bloodshed.
What's more, Ye Tong once inherited the lineage of Mai, and even encountered many extremely insidious Feng Shui formations that can destroy clans and clans.
Ye Tong didn't want to talk about this kind of thing anymore, pointing to the two motionless corpse puppets on both sides of the road hundreds of meters ahead, he said: "When they wake up, the thin solid layer will fall off from their bodies. During this period of time, they will not launch an attack for the time being, but I have just observed that the time from when they start to move to when they launch an attack is about four or five breaths."
"Four or five breaths?"
Dong Xueyan seemed to realize something, but she still asked, "What do you mean?"
Ye Tong said: "At our speed, four or five breaths can already sprint hundreds of meters, right? If we sprint at full speed, even if we rush into the depths of the underground palace, it will be difficult for them to attack us, unless they are the last swarm Come after us."
"Time difference!" Dong Xueyan understood.
Regardless of the injuries on her body, she hugged Ye Tong's waist directly, and then sprinted forward like a sharp arrow. She exploded to the limit of speed, even with Ye Tong, she was not affected much.
really!
Ye Tong's inference was correct, with the "click" sound, those zombie puppets woke up one after another, but before they launched an attack, Dong Xueyan had already rushed over with Ye Tong, hundreds of meters away .
No chase!
No fighting!
When Dong Xueyan and Ye Tong were about to approach a fountain square, her speed did not decrease, but her figure rushed towards a fork in the road.
"It's dangerous."
Outside an attic, Dong Xueyan said with lingering fear after putting Ye Tong down.
Ye Tong understood what she meant. He had seen clearly just now that there were corpse puppets standing around the fountain square, at least hundreds of them. If the two of them rushed in rashly, they would probably end up dead.
"This is where?"
Ye Tong looked at the surrounding environment, and found that this path was very quiet, and there was a tree planted in front of each attic on both sides, each tree was different, and the most important thing was that these trees were all fruited. It is full of fruits, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Fruits of various colors are like small colorful lanterns hanging.
Dong Xueyan showed a look of joy, and her eyes kept sweeping from one tree to another. Although she didn't find the seasonal fruit she needed, she also recognized several kinds of fruits, even if these kinds of fruits were placed in her original tree. The world is an extremely rare spiritual fruit, and once it appears, it will be snapped up by ascetics.
"This should be the place where people living in the underground palace usually live." Dong Xueyan said slowly after walking more than two hundred meters.
Ye Tong nodded and sighed: "If we stay here to practice, I'm afraid it won't be long before we can become real powerhouses. Here... there are too many spiritual fruits."
Dong Xueyan hesitated for a moment, pointed to the nearby tree, and said with a wry smile: "Even if you can break through the formation covering the fruit tree, can you kill the beast above? Have you seen that fire bird? It's called blood Sparrow, despite its small appearance, even a juvenile blood sparrow can easily kill a cultivator in the innate realm after being completely enraged."
Ye Tong was surprised: "Better than you?"
Dong Xueyan smiled wryly and said: "It's not just stronger than me. I'm afraid that even a strong person in the foundation building stage would not be able to kill the adult blood finch on the tree. We were lucky before. On the outermost tree, There is only one Green Arrow Snake, if it were this Blood Sparrow, we would probably be two corpses now."
The corner of Ye Tong's mouth twitched a few times, and she pointed to another tree again, looking at an owl-like beast above, staring at herself with blood-colored pupils, and asked, "What kind of beast is this?"
Dong Xueyan said: "The night cat is more ferocious than the blood sparrow."
"Well, I can't afford to provoke you."
A deep sense of helplessness grew in Ye Tong's heart. Seeing so many spiritual fruits, but not daring to break the formation to pick them up, this is simply a kind of torture.
This trail is a total of kilometers long.
Dong Xueyan had observed hundreds of trees and the fruits on them, but to her slight disappointment, she did not find any seasonal fruits.
"Don't be discouraged."
Ye Tong comforted her, and suddenly asked: "Tell me, if we enter the attic, can we find some treasures in it? After all, these spiritual fruits can't be the only ones in this underground palace, right?"
Dong Xueyan shook her head and said: "The news I have received is that you should not enter the underground palace or attic unless your cultivation level breaks through to the alchemy level, but even so, your life is still in danger."
Ye Tong smiled wryly: "Forget it, let's not take any risks."
To live is the kingly way. Ye Tong doesn't want to bury her life here for nothing because of greed. As a successor of a fortune teller, seeking good luck and avoiding evil has already penetrated into Ye Tong's bone marrow.
Dong Xueyan sized him up and asked, "Don't you feel regretful?"
Ye Tong said: "I have heard such a saying, that is, how big the stomach is, how much food you eat, greedy mouth will burst the belly, and you will be stuffed to death!"
A look of approval flashed in Dong Xueyan's eyes, she didn't speak again, but went around from the other end of the path into another path.
The underground palace has a large area, and the attic area is also large.
Finally, when the two found the sixth path, Dong Xueyan showed excitement, and sprinted to a green tree, looked at the dozens of purple fruits hanging on it, and said: "That's it, the seasonal fruit." .”
Ye Tong has always been curious about why Dong Xueyan needs seasonal fruits so urgently. He even vaguely guessed that the main purpose of Dong Xueyan joining Falanzong and coming to this secret realm is seasonal fruits.
But what is the magical effect of this fruit? What made Dong Xueyan so excited?
Ye Tong's eyes fell on the two-foot-long gecko-like beast on the branch, lightly touched Dong Xueyan's arm, and said: "Don't be too happy, even if we find the seasonal fruit, can you Pick them off? Can you withstand the attack of the beast on the tree?"
Immediately, Dong Xueyan, who was full of excitement, gradually calmed down as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her.
Ye Tong said: "If we want to get seasonal fruit, we need to think of a perfect plan, which can not only save our lives, but also avoid being killed by fierce beasts."
Dong Xueyan asked: "What can you do?"
Ye Tong shook his head and said: "With a little time, I may be able to crack the formation covering this tree, but I have nothing to do with that beast. Remember what I said before? With absolute strength In front of them, any conspiracy is a paper tiger, vulnerable to a single blow."
Dong Xueyan smiled wryly and said: "This is a worm, its own strength is not strong, even if it is an adult worm, a strong person in the foundation stage can easily kill it, the trouble is its toxicity, the saliva of the worm is highly poisonous, it is contaminated They will be poisoned to death in an instant."
"poison?"
Ye Tong said with a strange look: "I used to be a poison body. Even if the toxins in my body are completely cleaned up, my body is already invulnerable to all poisons. If you are confident that you can kill it, I can block it for you toxin."
Dong Xueyan's eyes lit up, she gritted her teeth and said, "As long as the toxin it sprays won't contaminate me, I'm confident that I can kill it within three breaths."
Ye Tong was surprised: "So confident?"
"right!"
Dong Xueyan nodded heavily, a glimmer of hope arose in her heart.
Ye Tong thought for a moment, and decided to trust Dong Xueyan once. He picked up some stones and threw them to the green tree again and again. When the mask formed by the formation was rippling, he kept observing and studying.
For three whole days.
After Ye Tong expended a lot of effort, he finally understood the formation covering the green tree thoroughly. It was hard for him to imagine that the formation covering a single tree was so mysterious, and the formation covering the entire underground palace was so powerful. How scary will it be?
In the past few days, Ye Tong has discovered some conditions in the underground palace, for example, the space of the underground palace is covered by a huge formation, and even the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the underground palace is continuously extracted from the outside world by the formation .
"How is it?" Dong Xueyan was impatient for a long time, and after realizing that Ye Tong had withdrawn her attention from the formation, she hurriedly asked.
Ye Tong nodded and said, "It can be broken."
Dong Xueyan said: "Then what are you waiting for? Break it!"
Ye Tong said helplessly: "I'm so tired now, and I'm in such a poor state. Once the formation is broken, and the worm sprays poison at you, who can stop you in time?"
"this……"
When Dong Xueyan heard the words, she suddenly realized that she had a problem with her mentality when facing the seasonal fruit, she laughed dryly and said: "Then you rest first, it's not too late for us to break the formation to pick the seasonal fruit later. "
"En!" Ye Tong nodded silently, sat down and meditated cross-legged.
But just a moment later.
"Roar..." An angry roar suddenly came from a distance.
Ye Tong opened her eyes, exchanged a glance with Dong Xueyan, and said in surprise, "This is the roar of a living corpse puppet, what's going on? Could it be that other than us broke into the underground palace?"
It's late, ask for a few monthly tickets!
