Chapter 518 Terrible Rules (1/2)
"You are not poisoned!"
Xue Yang spit out a mouthful of black blood again. He had just used the Three Days Flying in the Sky, which had already been squeezed to the limit.
However, Xu Hei's desire to kill him was wishful thinking. He still had a Dao Fa Fruit that he had not taken. This was a treasure he specially prepared for this trip.
Once taken, he could have the cultivation of half a step into the god in a short period of time, control the power of heaven and earth, and control the supreme law. Even if he met the insect demon Xu Hei again, he would be sure to kill his opponent!
The price was that his cultivation would drop to the early stage of the Nascent Soul, but if he really gained something in the virtual world, it would be worth it.
"So it was you who poisoned me!"
Hei Lian sat up from the altar with difficulty. She patted her chest and vomited a large piece of bloody internal organs. The black on her face quickly faded and turned pale.
She raised her hand lightly, and a dark lotus flew towards Xu Hei, slowly, but with destructive breath fluctuations.
One, two, three... countless black lotuses bloomed in the void.
Xu Hei remained calm, pulled back quickly, and said: "I am indeed not poisoned, but the poison was not put by me..."
"Because!"
At this point, Xu Hei stopped halfway, tapped the spirit beast ring on his hand with his fingertips, and his eyes turned cold.
"To deal with you, I don't need to use poison at all!"
As the voice fell, countless dense flying insects flew out of Xu Hei's spirit beast ring, each with a sharp mouthparts, which can devour spirit stones and absorb everything containing spiritual energy.
These insects have strange shapes, with cicada-like wings on their backs, like giant flying termites, which are spirit-eating ants.
"Spirit-eating ants?"
"Insect Demon Xu Hei!"
Everyone was shocked.
Especially Xue Yang, he originally had doubts about Xu Hei's identity, but when he found out that the other party was the insect demon Xu Hei, he was still scared.
The soul-eating ants opened their mouths and sucked the poison in the air crazily. The black lotus made a gesture with its palm, and the split lotus immediately exploded, shooting out countless flying needles, like a violent storm, killing many soul-eating ants.
But there were too many of them. Soon, thousands of soul-eating ants joined in, rushing forward like locusts, eating even the black lotus and flying needles.
Wherever the swarm of insects passed, nothing was left.
Xue Yang's face was extremely ugly, and a jade box appeared in his hand, which was the Dao Fa fruit he prepared.
But even if he took the Dao Fa fruit and killed Xu Hei, would it make sense?
"Xue Yang, do you think I need to poison you?" Xu Hei asked again.
Xue Yang couldn't refute.
Xu Hei waved his hand, and the soul-eating ants bypassed Xue Yang and swept towards the black lotus behind.
Black Lotus pulled back quickly, and a black treasure umbrella appeared on his palm, blooming. A black curtain appeared on the edge of the umbrella, protecting himself in it, forming an eggshell shape.
The Soul-Eating Ants pounced on it and besieged the black curtain, but they made a sound of fine iron colliding, and its hardness was comparable to that of stars.
This should also be a defensive magic weapon made from meteorite fragments.
Xu Heimian did not change his expression, and once again touched the spirit beast ring, a golden beetle mixed with the soul-eating ants flew towards the black curtain.
This golden beetle is the king insect of the soul-eating ants, specializing in devouring magic weapons, especially various metal substances, which it likes very much.
This is exactly the result of the semi-excellent spirit stone.
There are still a dozen eggs of the king insect, but only one has hatched now.
"Swish!"
The golden armored king insect stabbed the black curtain, and a large gap appeared on it immediately. Then, the metal substances in it dissolved at a terrifying speed, like a melting candle, and the entire treasure umbrella disappeared.
"Don't kill me, I don't mean to offend you! Stop it!" Hei Lian screamed.
"Too late!"
Xu Hei's eyes were indifferent. After the gap appeared, a large number of soul-eating ants rushed up and rushed into the indestructible eggshell, and screams came from inside.
After losing its spiritual power, the black umbrella magic weapon also disintegrated and fell to the ground, becoming the size of a palm.
Xu Hei flashed and picked up the umbrella.
Not long after, Hei Lian's screams stopped abruptly, and the soul-eating ants surrounded it and piled it up into a small hill.
Suddenly, surrounded by countless soul-eating ants, black smoke billowed out of Hei Lian's body, sweeping at an incredible speed, and strong toxins were released from it. The intensity was so strong that even the soul-eating ants' bodies were melting.
Soul-eating ants themselves are not afraid of poison. The poison that works against humans may not be useful against insects.
But this kind of poison can corrode everything in the world and melt metals.
In just a breath, hundreds of soul-eating ants were melted and turned into a pool of blood.
Xu Hei's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly took back the soul-eating ants, but there were still thousands of soul-eating ants that were hit, half of them died on the spot, and the golden armor king insect was also corroded by half of its body.
Xu Hei was so distressed that blood was about to drip.
"It turned out that you were the one who poisoned!"
At this moment, everyone finally realized that it was this Black Lotus who was crying thief.
She was the culprit.
However, Black Lotus was not feeling well at this time. She was gnawed and scarred, and her spiritual energy was also sucked away by the soul-eating ants. If she had not been forced, she would not release her own life-long poison bead.
"It turned out that this was a play directed and acted by you." Xu Hei stared at her grimly.
Black Lotus gritted her teeth and said gloomily: "How did you find me?"
Xu Hei shook his head and said: "I didn't realize it was you, but you and Xue Yang are the only ones who have murderous intentions towards me. I know Xue Yang, and he is not good at poison skills, so it's only you!"
In fact, there is another reason.
Xue Yang was besieged by insects once, so he must have some backup plan to deal with the insects. Xu Hei didn't want to push this person into a hurry.
To put it bluntly, it is a matter of strength.
If Xu Hei was confident that he could kill Xue Yang without any injuries, he would do it without hesitation.
"Everyone, why are you still standing there? Let's join forces to kill this woman first!"
Xu Hei shouted coldly and glared at Xue Yang after speaking.
Xue Yang is not a fool. He knows that if he doesn't take any action, Xu Hei will definitely settle the score with him.
He immediately stood up, raised his hand and waved, a bloody scorching sun hung above his head, transforming into a bloody sword, which he caught in his hand.
"Meteor Blade, cut!"
Xue Yang raised his sword high and slashed towards the black lotus like a falling star, streaking across the bright rainbow and splitting the void.
Luo Bai made a secret with his palms, and pieces of dust that were invisible to the naked eye flew near Heilian. He only saw him shout in a low voice: "Explode!"
"Boom boom boom..."
The dust exploded, terrifying fluctuations shook the sky, the poisonous gas was blown away, and Hei Lian's legs were also blown off. Then he was hit by Xue Yang's knife on the head, causing his head to explode.
Xu Hei also released the Canglong Immortal Technique to blow away the poisonous gas. He also beat up the drowned dog and gave Hei Lian two long-range attacks from time to time.
Hunter didn't make any move, he huddled back like a dead dog, motionless, black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he was still in a state of poisoning.
In this way, under the siege of three people and half a stick of incense, Heilian was outnumbered and beaten to death.
In fact, Xu Hei could kill her by himself, but he couldn't bear to part with his bugs, and he didn't want to expose his quasi-level five flying sword's trump card.
Therefore, he chose to join forces.
Hei Lian also died in an extremely frustrated manner. He wanted to poison everyone, but in the end no one was poisoned. Instead, he became the first dead soul in the five-person team.
After Black Lotus' Nascent Soul was destroyed and her soul was defeated by the Shattering Dragon Roar, everyone finally gave up.
And the three of them had a tacit agreement not to destroy Heilian's body.
Without saying a word, Xu Hei stepped forward and threw his body into the groove in the middle.
"Uh-huh!"
Streams of blood gushed out from his corpse, and the grooves beat, spreading the blood into the blood vessels on the altar until the whole thing turned into blood.
A brand new door opens in the middle of the altar, leading to the next location.
Looking at the rising portal, everyone fell into silence.
"Sure enough, you have to sacrifice someone before you can enter the next location." Xue Yang secretly thought.
"It was like this in the first level, so will it be the same in the next level?" Luo Bai was thinking a lot.
Xu Hei also looked at the door and remained silent for a long time.
virtual world.
What a cannibalistic place.
Everyone did not immediately step into the next level. They had just experienced a battle and were poisoned. They would not take any action until their condition was restored.
Moreover, everyone has a premonition.
The next thing to guard against is not only external agencies, but also teammates!
…………
So far, five teams have passed the first level.
God Puppet Sect.
There are only three people in their team, namely the strongest eldest disciple Ji Shu, the elder Meng Shan, and the new deacon Qin Xuanji.
As a puppet sect, they have a large number of human puppets, but there are only three of them alive.
Everyone had already seen the clues of the altar, and they needed to sacrifice a living person before they could pass through.
So, who will offer the sacrifice?
The answer is ready to come out.
Qin Xuanji, no matter how talented he was, was admitted as a disciple of the Shenpuppet Sect, and had repeatedly performed extraordinary feats in the battlefield for two years, he still could not compare with the older generation.
He can only be the one to sacrifice!
However, they still gave Qin Xuanji a chance to find a way to crack it.
Although the chance is almost zero.
"Give me time, I will definitely be able to unlock this formation." Qin Xuanji said solemnly.
"Then I'll give you an hour. If you can't untie it, you can end it yourself." Ji Shu said calmly.
"yes!"
Qin Xuanji immediately started trying.
He first used the spirit beast he had captured to drain the blood, but found that it had no effect. He also drained the monk's corpse, which was also useless.
After trying again and again and failing again and again.
Qin Xuanji realized that only living people who died on the altar would be useful.
Elder Mengshan sneered from the side, giving people hope and then despair. He was originally very optimistic about Qin Xuanji, a good prospect, but unfortunately, the rule here was that people had to die.
He can only be sacrificed.
Qin Xuanji's breathing quickened, and a sense of despair arose spontaneously. He only practiced for a short period of time, so his strength was inferior to others. He had a bright future, but how could he be willing to be buried here?
Suddenly, Qin Xuanji's eyes flashed, and a terrible plan appeared in his mind.
In the blink of an eye, an hour has arrived.
"The time has come, you can take matters into your own hands." Ji Shu looked at Qin Xuanji.
But Qin Xuanji stood on the ground like a piece of wood, motionless, with no sparkle in his eyes.
"Um?"
Ji Shu frowned.
"Hmph, let me help you!"
The elder Meng Shan on the side was too lazy to talk nonsense. He flew forward, grabbed Qin Xuanji, came to the groove, slit his throat and bled.
However, not a drop of blood appeared.
"What?" Mengshan's face changed drastically.
Qin Xuanji's body was cold, and the cut part was like wood. There was no blood, no muscles, and he was not a living person at all.
He turned into a puppet!
Not a drop of blood.
Mengshan's consciousness swept in, from inside to outside, he did not find a drop of blood, not even a drop. Qin Xuanji turned himself into a puppet!
When did he do it?
"Pa pa pa..."
Applause came.
The eldest disciple Ji Shu clapped his hands and laughed: "Haha, so this is your way to crack it, not bad!"
Then, he looked at Mengshan and smiled.
Mengshan's face was pale and his body was shaking.
"Mengshan, you know what to do, right?" Ji Shu smiled.
Qin Xuanji turned into a puppet and lost a drop of blood, so who else can be sacrificed?
Mengshan's expression was horrified. The next moment, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and he was about to pinch the formula. But suddenly, a fierce divine consciousness rushed into his sea of consciousness, like the arrival of divine power, forcibly depriving him of control over his physical body.
"In order to prevent you from having evil intentions, Master specially left me a divine talisman to suppress the elders, so I can only sacrifice you." Ji Shu said with a smile.
He controlled Mengshan to take out a knife, cut his wrist, and a drop of blood flowed into the groove.
The attraction in the groove exploded, sucking Mengshan in, and his body gradually turned into blood.
The blood flowed through the altar, and every blood groove turned bright red.
A door opened from the altar.
The first level, passed.
Until then, a hint of color appeared in Qin Xuanji's empty eyes.
This was the solution he thought of, the only way to save his life, that is, to lose the physical body and leave only the divine consciousness.
He bet right!
But he didn't have a trace of joy of survival.
He was just thinking about what he would face next.
What should he do if he encounters this situation again?
…………
Similar scenes occurred on various islands.
The people who formed a team were all familiar with each other, either disciples of the same sect or relatives and friends.
They had to choose one person to die in order to pass to the next level. This was not only a test of strength, but also a test of humanity.
In a place where memory can be erased, any evidence of murder no longer exists.
After going out, no one will remember how the disappeared person died, and the friendship of the past will be like a joke and vulnerable.
"As long as you go out, no one will remember what happened here, so don't have any psychological burden, just do it directly, whoever loses will die!"
On an island, the people of the Hydra organization finally decided to use force to decide who would be the sacrificer.
Three of their members entered the virtual world, namely Jiu Tou Chong, Hai Teng, and Xiong Dabao.
They decided to fight among the three, and whoever fell first would be the sacrifice. The strong lived and the weak died. This is an eternal rule.
The three monsters decided to respect such natural rules.
