Chapter 549: Defeat the Nether Beast and Enter the 3rd Floor
"Xiao Jin, our detection range is limited now. Don't fly too far away. Just fly half a foot in front of me. Slowly move forward. Let's try our luck and see if we can find the passage to the third floor." Yuan Xiao ordered.
But Xiao Jin and Yuan Xiao San Hua are actually different. In this black fog, Xiao Jin's vision and consciousness are also limited, but his innate instinct to sense energy fluctuations is not restricted at all.
So even if there are energy fluctuations far away, Xiao Jin can still feel it.
Now Xiao Jin relies entirely on the energy fluctuations he senses to check the places where energy is emitted one by one.
These places that emit weak energy fluctuations are generally underground creatures, but they may also be the passage to the third floor of the abyss.
"Yuan Xiao, where are we going now?" San Hua was too lazy to think and asked.
"Our eyes and consciousness can only cover less than ten feet away. There is no good way. Just follow Xiao Jin. It is an expert in exploring secrets. Professional matters must be handed over to professional beasts. Laymen should not give blind orders!" Yuan Xiao smiled.
"Okay, this time you are the boss, whatever you say is what it is!" Sanhua agreed.
In the end, they walked for 12 hours and got nothing.
Just when Xiao Jin was close to a source of energy fluctuations, he suddenly screamed again to warn.
Yuanxiao immediately flashed in front of Xiao Jin and punched forward.
I saw a translucent monster, although it hit Yuanxiao's fist, but it passed through the body like a fluid, and recovered behind Yuanxiao, obviously without any damage.
Yuanxiao felt that part of his vitality was taken away in an instant, which was very strange. He chased after it and punched it again, and part of his vitality was taken away again.
Something is wrong! Yuanxiao stopped immediately.
"Yuanxiao, this is a ghost beast! It specializes in devouring the vitality and lifespan of cultivators. If there is no special way to deal with it, it can slowly wear down a cultivator to death! Let me do it!" Sanhua shouted.
I saw Sanhua took out the demon-suppressing stick and shot out a black light, hitting the ghost beast. The seemingly illusory Nether Beast suddenly seemed to be on fire, and white smoke came out of its body!
It was obvious that the Nether Beast was perfectly restrained by the Demon Subduing Wand!
As expected, everything is born, and one thing can defeat another. The ghost beast belongs to the soul class of strange beasts. It is not afraid of the spell attacks and spiritual weapon attacks of ordinary monks, but it is afraid of the tit-for-tat magic weapon such as the Demon Subduing Wand.
The ghost beast was about to escape, but was wrapped by the sphere transformed by the Sanhua Demon Subduing Wand, and then white smoke came out of its body, and it was burned smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a transparent bead.
"Yuanxiao, this bead is the vitality and life span absorbed by the Nether Beast. It not only contains the vitality and life span you just absorbed, but also may include the vitality and life span of other adventure monks before. You crush it and absorb it, which can not only replenish your lost vitality and life span, but also may have more." Sanhua said.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiao took the transparent bead into his hand and began to absorb it. As expected, he felt that the vitality he had just lost was immediately restored, and there was still a lot of vitality in the bead that could be used for further absorption. He could also feel that his body became younger and his life span increased.
After absorbing the transparent bead, Yuan Xiao said: "The monks who lost here in the early years may have been devoured by the Nether Beast. This transparent bead just now obviously contains the vitality and life span of others."
"That's right. The ordinary attacks of this Nether Beast have no effect on it. Only magical tools such as the enchanted wand that restrain the soul of the Yin object are effective. Otherwise, even if you have a high level of cultivation, it is difficult to escape its clutches!" Sanhua said.
"Little Bald Head, help me get two more of these transparent beads. I want to give one to each of my parents in my hometown to replenish their vitality and life span. Now my parents have begun to practice the Xuanwu Changsheng Gongfa under my guidance. I want them to be more stable." Yuan Xiao suddenly thought of his parents in his hometown and said immediately.
"No problem. Xiao Jin, you continue to look for this kind of Nether Beast. If you encounter it, let me deal with it! My Demon Subduing Rod is thirsty!" Sanhua began to brag.
No wonder Sanhua brags, the Demon Subduing Rod is particularly useful for dealing with this kind of Nether Beast. After a whole day, he finally killed two more Nether Beasts and got two transparent beads, all of which were given to Yuanxiao.
In fact, even without Sanhua's Demon Subduing Rod, Yuanxiao has something that can restrain the Nether Beast, that is, the Heavenly Fire in his body.
Heavenly Fire is the fire of the immortal world. Like the Demon Subduing Rod, it can also suppress the souls of Yin objects. It's just that now is the time for Sanhua to work hard. Yuanxiao will certainly not dampen his enthusiasm and will definitely let Sanhua take the limelight.
Yuanxiao couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Those monks who came in to explore in the early years may have had high cultivation, but if they didn't have the means to deal with the souls of Yin objects, they might still be defeated here.
Because in this endless black fog, the Nether Beast has the advantage of being at home, and can only observe the isolated monks less than ten feet away from them, and will inevitably gradually fall into despair.
"Xiao Jin, from now on, try your best to find the passage to the third layer of the abyss. There must be energy fluctuations at the entrance of the passage, and the size of the energy fluctuations must be different from the fluctuations emitted by the Nether Beast. You can use this as a clue to select the direction we are going." Yuan Xiao reminded.
A word awakened the dreamer, even Xiao Jin could understand it, and immediately adjusted the direction of advance, and specifically selected those places where there were no energy fluctuations of the Nether Beast to investigate.
Another day passed, and after finally defeating a huge Nether Beast guarding the passage, they not only got a transparent bead full of vitality, but also found a passage leading to the third floor of the abyss not far behind it.
Yuanxiao and Sanhua were overjoyed. They didn't expect that it only took a few days to get rid of the second floor filled with black fog and easy to get lost. Xiaojin undoubtedly made great contributions!
No matter what is on the third floor of the abyss, we must leave the annoying second floor of the abyss first!
Yuanxiao hugged Xiaojin and jumped into the abyss passage with Sanhua to the third floor.
After entering the third floor of the abyss, the field of vision suddenly became much wider, and at least a hundred feet away could be seen. With this safe distance, the life of the monks is guaranteed, at least they are not afraid of monsters attacking.
The third floor is also full of rocks, but these stones are different from the two layers above. They are flashing with light and look like fine iron, which is one of the refining materials in the human world.
Yuanxiao, in line with the principle of preferring to take the wrong thing rather than miss it, picked up dozens of large stones and threw them into the storage ring, intending to hand them over to Han Fei in the weapon refining pavilion after returning, asking him to study whether they can be used to refine weapons for the sect disciples.
Sanhua only took one piece and stopped, because he had no sect and no disciples, and one piece was enough for him and his master to use for a long time. Seeing Yuanxiao took so many at once, he laughed!
Yuanxiao saw Sanhua's expression and was about to scold him for knowing nothing, but he saw a stone giant ten feet tall running towards them.
Xiaojin immediately launched a sonic attack, but the stone giant had no reaction, and continued to walk, stretched out a fist, and hit Yuanxiao and Sanhua!
