On the east side of the desert island, the terrain is low-lying and the Yin energy accumulates. Yan Xiaoqi and his companions dug pits here and built a facility called the Earth Abyss.
The terrain on the west side is lofty and composed of rocks. The top of the rocks is close to the edge of the desert, where a circular wooden altar stands, with a diameter of three meters and a height of one meter. In the center of the altar hung a pale, dark red water droplet the size of a human head, which was receiving the rain falling from the sky.
Qu Du clenched his wrist tightly. Golden blood spurted into the water droplets, making the originally ordinary wooden altar exude an air of sanctity and solemnity.
Red Dust Record holds a beautiful mirror, constantly reflecting rings of flames, which contain light dark red runes, shooting at water droplets at different frequencies.
In an instant, the thick negative energy around was dispelled by a dim light that descended from the sky. Seeing this, Hongchenlu perked up and the mirror in his hand continued to steadily shoot out the talisman Fire ring.
As the power of fire gathered around, water droplets began to overflow. The drops, like sticky butter, fell onto the circular altar and spread rapidly, enveloping the entire altar in the glow of the dark and evil god.
A dim beam of light shone directly down from mid-air, revealing a blurry human figure within it. As the water droplets overflowing, the human figure gradually became clear, and eventually the figure of a bearded man emerged.
"Teacher!" Hongchenlu and Qu Du both lowered their heads at the same time and respectfully addressed each other.
What made you use the altar to contact me? In the dim light, the bearded man was dressed in a mage's robe, wore a pointed cap of a magician, and had seven-colored rings on his fingers. His face was kind and his eyes shone with wisdom.
"Teacher!" Qu Du dared not hide anything and confessed everything, hinting that their current strength was no longer sufficient to protect themselves, let alone capture or kill Yan Xiaoqi.
After hearing Qu Du's words, the bearded magician fell into silent contemplation and did not respond immediately. Time passed slowly, but Qu Du and Hongchenlu still stood respectfully beneath the altar, not daring to make a move rashly.
I have understood the situation. You upgrade the altar immediately and I will send some items over. Remember, even if we can't capture the second son of the Yan family, we must kill him. We mustn't let this demon escape. The bearded magician gave instructions with a serious expression.
Hardly had the words been spoken when the image on the altar suddenly vanished.
When only a faint dim light remained on the altar, Qu Du and Hongchenlu slowly moved their figures, being very cautious, fearing that the figure of the mage would reappear in the dim light.
However, once they recovered from the palpitations caused by the teacher's presence, the order was given immediately. More soldiers began to use their combat skills to split mountains and chisels stones. One by one, square stones were piled up and expanded on the basis of the original altar. Subsequently, more magical materials were carried out and orderly arranged around the altar.
Qu Du stood on the altar that had been expanded and upgraded, holding a knife. Facing the water droplets, he threw drops of golden blood into them. The water droplet absorbed the blood. The powerful force contained in the blood stimulated it, and the dark beam of light in mid-air, which was originally only one meter in diameter, suddenly became even more solid. A bronze-colored box with a magical seal gradually solidified its body in the dim light and then appeared on the altar.
Due to excessive blood loss, Qu Du's body swayed and he was almost on the verge of collapse. Red Dust Record, with a greedy look, stared at the box inside the magic seal, slowly walked to Qu Du's side, supported him, but his gaze never left the box.
"This is mine. It was given to me by the teacher. Don't even think about it." " Although Qu Du was physically weak, seeing Hong Chenlu's expression, how could he not understand his thoughts? Therefore, he spoke up to remind him.
Sure, my dear brother, the teacher has always favored you. But now is a critical moment. We need to work together with one heart to truly get through this crisis and even fulfill the teacher's instructions. Hongchenlu said insincerely.
Humph! It's good that you understand. There are already arrangements made by the teacher here. Everything should be centered around me. Qu Du's face was pale and his tone revealed disdain.
That's natural. Everything we do is to serve the teachers. This time, Hongchenlu lowered his head, a trace of resentment flashing in his eyes.
Qu Du walked weakly to the box that was flickering with magical light. His fingers gently touched the box, and immediately a faint light burst out from it, filled with tremendous explosive energy. But when Qu Du's blood-stained fingers touched the magic array patterns on the surface of the box, these rays of light flowed into his body, and warm currents rippled within him, making the weak Qu Du involuntarily cry out in a comfortable low voice.
Witnessing all this, the venting light in Hongchenlu's eyes became even more intense.
Click...
With a faint sound of unlocking, the sealed box slowly opened, and a dazzling light burst out. A hundred meters above their heads, a circular six-pointed star array with a diameter of ten meters gradually emerged, like a rain of light falling from the sky, with a large number of objects falling one after another.
Among these items, 70% are materials for making magic arrays, 20% are various weapons, and the remaining 10% are food and fresh water.
"Great! With these supplies, we no longer have to worry about the enemy's intrigues." Red Dust Record concealed the resentment in his heart deeply, and a sincere smile appeared on his face as he said excitedly.
"Indeed, this time I will surely let the incompetent people of the Yan family taste the bitterness of despair, even if there is evil lurking within them..." " Qu Du was also in high spirits. The decline in strength caused by excessive blood loss before seemed to have fully recovered to his peak state at this moment. However, in the midst of his excitement, he made a slip of the tongue. Before he could finish speaking, he realized something was amiss and remained silent.
Hongchenlu laughed heartily, seemingly oblivious to Qu Du's slip of the tongue, and directed the soldiers to carry the supplies.
Qu Du, with a hint of confusion, gazed at the Red Dust Record for a moment before realizing that what he had said might not have caught the attention of the Red Dust Record.
At this moment, the magic array in the sky had dissipated, but the altar on the ground was still functioning. A dim beam of light was projected onto the water droplets, emitting a delicate glow.
Everyone began to sort out these supplies, replenish their energy, and under the command of Qu Du and Hongchenlu, they continued to expand a broader magic array along the altar.
In the low-lying area to the east of the oasis, Yan Xiaoqi stood at the edge of a deep pit, carefully sticking her head out to look down. Due to the dim sky and limited vision, he could only faintly see the bottom of the deep pit. The figures of the monster warrior and the puppet Yu Yu turned into blurry black shadows, busily digging, throwing out handfuls of soil and piling them up at the edge of the deep pit, making the pit wall higher and higher.
When the deep pit is dug to a depth of a hundred meters, the "enlightenment" in the mirror emits a faint light, like a signal. The monster warrior climbed along the edge of the deep pit, with his fingers deeply inserted into the rock wall, swimming rapidly and climbing upwards.
In the deep pit, only the puppet Yu Yu remained in the same place.
This light ball split into several smaller ones, which, like self-cruising missiles, shot at the puppets standing behind Yan Xiaoqi. These puppets were neatly arranged.
The black light balls merged into the bodies of the indigenous puppets, and their skin instantly became dark and as hard as iron. With a wild howl, their bodies bowed, as if they had heard the command of "enlightenment", and they galloped towards the west of the oasis like arrows leaving the bowstring.
To the west of the oasis, where Qu Du was located, a faint shield of dim light had completely covered the altar. Qu Du chanted incantations and cast spells on the altar. More dim light was drawn down, expanding the area covered by the dim light.
When these indigenous puppets came into the view of the Red Dust Record, they let out a wild roar, revealing their completely mutated huge mouths, and let out a furious roar, the sound rumbling like thunder.
Qu Du continued to cast spells, while Hongchenlu commanded the warlords to form battle formations to resist the attacks of the indigenous puppets.
First, a shower of arrows flew out, but were easily flicked away by the indigenous puppet, and the arrows were flung away by the powerful fingers. Then, they charged like wild boars and broke into the area shrouded in dim light.
These indigenous puppets had already stepped into the range of the dim light, and their bodies instantly kindled sparks. Although these puppets were originally expressionless, they now let out painful wails. However, they continued to attack in an even more fierce manner.
Unfortunately, this time they had no 'Wu' as their support, nor was there any replenishment of Yin energy. Although their attack seemed very rapid in the dim light, the actual damage they caused was negligible.
Relying on the coordinated operation of the battle formation and the magic energy support provided by the Red Dust Record from the rear, the indigenous puppets were no match for these battle officials from the very beginning of the battle.
When the indigenous puppets withdrew from the coverage of the dim light and began to absorb the surrounding Yin energy to recover their body damage, an arc swept across the sky, and a green light ball flew over. As it approached the indigenous puppets, it automatically split and fell into their bodies one after another.
The injection of green light balls accelerated the speed at which the puppets absorbed the Yin energy, forming one Yin energy vortex after another. Their bodies expanded accordingly, and the speed became even faster, even faster than before.
These indigenous puppets rushed into the area shrouded in dim light like bullets, no longer engaging in battles with the battle formations composed of combatants. Instead, they frantically destroyed the surrounding ground and attacked the base of the magic array that extended from the altar.
"Kill!" The Red Dust Record also adjusted its command strategy accordingly, dividing the warriors into groups of three to separate, surround and strangle different puppets respectively.
Even so, when all the indigenous puppets were finally completely eliminated, one third of the Magic array expansion sequence had been completely destroyed.
"Please continue to strengthen precautions!" After the Red Dust Record issued the order, it immediately directed those who were unable to participate in the battle to continue repairing the magic array and began to expand the sequence of the magic array.
The indigenous puppet vanished in the depths. Above the deep pit, a mirror suspended above the pit emitted a beam of light as diameter as a bowl, enveloping Yu Yu below.
Immediately, the earth and stones inside the underground abyss spurted out like a fountain. These spurted earth and stones emitted a foul smell and were mixed with evil energy, piling up at the edge of the underground abyss.
"Pile up the soil!" Another beam of light shot out from the mirror, controlling Yan Xiaoqi's body. The Yin energy in her hand condensed into a membrane, shaping this Yin energy soil into humanoid puppets, standing three meters tall, with a imposing figure like a snowman, supported by two huge elephant legs.
These newly cast clay puppets were initially motionless, but as a black liquid gushed out of the monster warriors' bellies and covered their bodies, these originally large and round clay figures gradually became slender. Although their height remained unchanged, they appeared even more slender.
The completed clay puppet has a compact body. When struck, it makes a crisp sound similar to that of steel, and its texture and hardness are obvious.
"Move forward!" With a command, these newly formed mud puppets let out a huge crash sound and rushed towards the place where Qu Du was located. They moved at high speed and combined with the huge physical impact force, the damage they caused would undoubtedly be huge.
"Rise!" At this moment, Qu Du finally completed the casting of the spell. The last incantation fell, and with a command, the originally one-meter-diameter dim light rapidly expanded, forming a twenty-meter-diameter light column. The light column connected the heaven and earth, covering the magic array that had expanded on the altar.
The mud puppets advanced forward. The first thing they encountered was a barrier composed of dim light. Although passing through this layer of light curtain made their body surfaces start to melt, like cheese, a layer of Yin energy armor was formed within them, effectively slowing down the speed of their body melting. These puppets form small groups in groups of three or five and destroy the magic array beneath their feet. When all the auxiliary magic arrays were destroyed again and the body of the earth puppet was shattered, the wisps of Yin energy that escaped were dissipated by the dim light.
Deep in the earth abyss, where Yan Xiaoqi was, the depth was so profound that it was hard to catch a glimpse of its bottom. The foul smell mixed with impurities and kept gushing out. Once these impurities appeared, Yan Xiaoqi transformed them into human-shaped puppets in the blink of an eye. After being enlightened by the monster generals, these puppets acted like workers, following Yan Xiaoqi's movements and creating more puppets.
When the earth's abyss stopped gushing out the impure earth, Yan Xiaoqi regained control of her body and hovered in mid-air. In the Realm of Enlightenment, a sinister energy emerged. The monster warrior roared and led hundreds and thousands of clay puppets to charge at the altar built by Qu Du and the others.
"Come on, I have a spirit separation technique here. The battle below is under your command." As if Wu deliberately kept Yan Xiaoqi from being idle, he used the Yin energy as a brush to paint in the void. A black talisman appeared and was immediately imprinted on Yan Xiaoqi's forehead.
Immediately, a streak of green light spread out from above Yan Xiaoqi's head, and he felt as if he had transformed into seventeen individuals. In the vision of these individuals, dark and dense figures emerged. He realized that these visions were the puppets he controlled, mixed among the clay puppets.
Yan Xiaoqi tried to switch between these perspectives, but there were still seventeen thoughts constantly shifting in her mind. He began to try to control these puppets and soon found that this approach had thrown him into confusion, causing the mud puppets to once obstruct the advance routes of the other puppets.
When the monster warriors charged into the area of the Qudu Altar, a large number of mud puppets followed closely behind and charged in. The sheer number of these puppets created an overwhelming effect, causing the expanded magic base to shatter once again.
"The light of the dark Evil God!" This time it was Qu Du who cast the spell. In the beam of light, the radiance of the dark and evil god converged, forming dozens of long spears with seven-colored luster. At the command, the light spear pierced through and took away more than ten clay puppets. The puppet was destroyed, and the Yin energy contained within it collapsed, dissipating into dust and landing on the altar.
Yan Xiaoqi was directing the mud puppet to change into various formations and throw themselves into battle. This time, their target was the combatants located beside the altar - those soldiers brimming with combat energy. Three puppets are responsible for luring the enemy. Their arms are fused into sharp long claws that can be fired like bullets, forcing the combatants to pursue closely with tremendous physical impact and the force of Yin energy invasion.
Then, five clay puppets leaped into the air, their bodies turning into flowing water, weaving a huge net that completely enveloped the combatants. Although they brandished knives and axes, they were unable to break through this limitation. Meanwhile, the remaining nine dirt puppets grabbed the puppets with autonomous consciousness, transformed them into explosive spears, and threw them at the trapped combatants, causing fatal bombardment.
This precise attack strategy caught the attention of the seventeen puppets controlled by Yan Xiaoqi. Then, a fierce flame descended from the Red Dust Record's hand. The halo spread, forming a flame destruction zone with a diameter of twenty meters. All the earth puppets disintegrated in the flame, leaving only the dust transformed from the Yin energy slowly falling to the ground.
"Your efforts are in vain," Qu Du declared loudly. "Even if you destroy the magic array that extends from the altar, it will be of no avail." The power of magic is beyond your comprehension. He activated the altar to release more radiance, and a light spear condensed within the light column, launching another fierce attack on the monster warrior.
The warrior let out a roar of a tiger, stepped back, and the puppet beside him transformed into an explosive spear and a shield of the filthy earth, defending against the light spear that descended from the sky.
"Something's not right," Hongchenlu suddenly stared at the gloomy dust that was drifting around during the battle and loudly warned, "This demon is by no means as simple as it seems."
Qu Du also noticed the situation around the altar. Only to see the magic array composed of magical materials and magical energy weapons, at this moment, seemed like a circuit board covered with dust, emitting fragile electric sparks, as if it would burn out at any moment due to the interruption of the energy cycle, making crackling sounds.
"Damn you bastards! In that case, let all of you die!" Qu Du discovered that the dark energy released by these destroyed earth puppets was hindering the normal operation of the magic array and might even lead to its complete collapse in the near future. With a determined heart, he cast two spells in succession.
The dark and evil god weaves a net
The light flow of the dark and evil god appeared like silk threads, converging and weaving into a huge energy light net, covering an area of a hundred meters above the altar. This light net also enveloped those monster warriors who were about to evacuate safely. Then the light net contracted, and all the puppets were pulled over by the invisible huge arms.
Light explosion
The light column on the altar suddenly shattered. The powerful light force was like an ultra-long-range ground missile. The light and heat mixed with the distorted space, triggering intense shock waves that spread in all directions. This not only completely eliminated numerous puppets and monster warriors within the optical network, but also expanded the coverage area of the optical network by three times. In a vast area, the light energy raged, forcibly dispelling the dark energy.
"Get down!" The "enlightenment" in the mirror commanded.
Before Yan Xiaoqi could react, her body involuntarily soared into the air and charged straight towards the deep abyss.
After being stuck in the air for two seconds, he fell heavily with a loud bang. Yan Xiaoqi was stunned in his heart. Two seconds of free fall. How deep is this abyss exactly?
Standing up, he found that a seemingly floating layer of soil had miraculously absorbed most of the impact force, leaving him unharmed.
The environment inside the underground abyss - high temperature, scorching heat, darkness and narrowness - made Yan Xiaoqi feel uneasy. Yu Yu spread his hands wide, and the soil beneath him seemed to be summoned from that void.
After landing, Yu Yu's body suddenly disintegrated, turning into a vast black net that tightly enveloped Yan Xiaoqi.
"Ah!" Unprepared, Yan Xiaoqi was startled by this sudden change and let out a scream.
The black net covered him like armor. His body involuntarily sat cross-legged again, slunk into the muddy water with a thud, and clasped his hands together. Only the voice of 'Wu' from above the deep earth could be heard: "Calm your mind and chant along with me!"
Yan Xiaoqi's heart was shaken by the profound "enlightenment" in the sky. Every word and every sentence deeply touched his soul, and he couldn't help but recite along.
As Yan Xiaoqi recited the incantation, the faint chirping of insects rang out on the armor woven from the black net. The incantation and the chirping of insects interwoves. Countless black insects the size of grains of rice emerged from the armor. They spread their transparent thin wings and shot rapidly into the distance.
These insects are the fifth-generation propagules of the abyssal antennae. They were born under the nurturing of the combat power within Yu Yu and are known as the Light Corpse Insects.
The appearance and dispersion of the light corpse worm, and after them, more worms emerged. They surrounded and entangled, forming long and thin ropes like black cords. Each insect exposed its hideous mouthparts, like the ropes on a chainsaw, expanding the surrounding underground space even more open. The collective attack of these insect groups on the soil in the deep is as sharp as a hot knife cutting through butter.
There are a total of 108 vital acupoints in the human body, among which 36 are fatal death points.
Yan Xiaoqi was surrounded by a long saw chain composed of 108 black ropes, which made the black ropes run across the air and encircle his entire body.
At the same time, when these 108 black ropes surrounded her, Yan Xiaoqi's incantation changed again. As the incantation was chanted, Yan Xiaoqi's heart seemed to be shaken by the roar of the thunderous drum, beating violently. His body couldn't bear the shock and couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Blood splattered, staining the thirty-six exposed dead points, the black thread, bright red. These black cords, like wild snakes, stirred the surrounding soil, constantly scraping up clods of earth, which eventually piled up on Yan Xiaoqi's body, forming a circular red mound. And 108 black cords were then retracted and wound around the outer layer of the mound, like its veins.
Yan Xiaoqi's incantation rang out again. The mound, along with its outer veins, made a dull thumping sound, as if it were the beating of the earth's heart.
With this pulsation, the Yin energy within the earth's veins and on the ground began to gather here, forming a huge vortex that continuously devoured more Yin energy. This force pervaded the entire deep earth, filling it with the power of Yin energy.
Boom!
A loud bang burst out from the bottom of the abyss. Swarms of black insects joined end to end, forming a huge creature above the abyss that resembled a human. Its appearance was very much like Yan Xiaoqi.
What a magical power! Is this the mystery of Daoism? Yan Xiaoqi gazed at her body made of insects, her tone brimming with envy.
There is no need to be astonished. This is just the tip of the iceberg of Taoist magic. Go ahead and use your strength to eliminate your enemies. The voice of "enlightenment" echoed in Yan Xiaoqi's consciousness.
"Yes, your order!" Yan Xiaoqi steadied her mind. The swarm of insects that had originally condensed into human form suddenly scattered, turning into a black cloud and swiftly flying away.
Qu Du witnessed the rapidly approaching black cloud and the figure of Yan Xiaoqi, which was formed by the aggregation of insects within it. He screamed in terror, "The prophecy has come true. There is indeed a cage of evil hidden within you." You odious demon! You must not be allowed to escape. Otherwise, the whole world will come to an end because of you.
"Stupid!" Yan Xiaoqi contemptuously pursed her lips, sensing the surging power within her and said disdainfully. With a wave of his hand, his body dissipated and he transformed into countless flying insects, frantically diving downward.
"Let the light of the dark and evil god protect me!" Red Dust Record, at the moment when dark clouds were pressing down, took out a miniature statue from his bosom. As the magic power within him surged, a layer of multicolored egg-shaped shield unfolded, tightly protecting him from any harm.
Those light corpse worms pounced on the light shield, but dissipated in the energy waves that offset each other, turning into Yin energy, which was absorbed by the dust emitted by the remnants of the ground soil puppets and transported underground. Around the heart of the earth, these Yin energies were reshaped into the light corpse insects. They flapped their wings and flew towards the altar.
Facing this endless black worm, Qu Du shouted at the top of his lungs, "You damned second son of the Yan family, a disgrace to the family. You are indeed the source of evil." Why do you rebel? Why do you collude with the devil? If you don't die, no one will have peace.
Yan Xiaoqi's anger dissipated. He calmly gazed at Qu Du, who was hoarse and in a state of madness, on the altar. A trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "Everything is just for survival. And you, don't understand anything. You are merely a puppet and a pawn in this world."
If you don't die, everyone will die. You must die. You forced me to do so. Qu Du suddenly looked ferocious and spoke fiercely. He took out a scimitar and without hesitation cut off his left arm. The left arm turned into flames in the air, and golden blood splashed out, spilling onto the altar.
Qu Du shouted furiously at a half-meter-diameter light column that had just appeared on the altar, "Teacher, save me!"
Boom...
A huge sound wave emerged from within the light column, and a figure appeared, exuding a strong natural power all over. As soon as he appeared, he cast a spell of spiritual light, which shone upon Qu Du, causing the wound on his arm to heal rapidly, scab over, and be fully repaired. His skin became smooth again.
Who is it? How dare you hurt my disciple? Who is it that dares to desecrate the majesty of our alliance of dark and evil gods? The man who suddenly appeared was none other than Qu Du's teacher who was teleported through the light column. As a mage councilor of the Dark Evil God Alliance, Zhu Ying was undoubtedly one of the few powerful figures on the continent.
With a gentle flicking of his finger, the magic of the Fire Star burst forth instantly, sweeping away all the black worms around and rescuing Hongchenlu. The latter staggered behind Buxi, his face filled with awe.
Yan Xiaoqi, it's been ten years since we last met. I never thought we would run into each other under such circumstances. I still remember that you were even more naughty than your elder brother when you were a child. After clearing away the black insects around, Buxi said with emotion to Yan Xiaoqi, who had reformed in mid-air.
Yan Xiaoqi remained silent. He was not the real Yan Xiaoqi and knew nothing about the powerful white-bearded mage in front of him.
Seeing Yan Xiaoqi remain silent, he smiled and said, "Indeed, ten years have passed." For us mages, ten years is just the blink of an eye, but for ordinary people, even those powerless carnivores, ten years is enough to change everything. Time is long enough to turn relatives into enemies and strangers into spouses. It's been ten years since we last met. You might not remember who I am by now.
Yan Xiaoqi remained silent, but inside she was frantically calling for the arrival of "enlightenment". The old mage in front of him was extremely powerful, making him feel the threat of death from the bottom of his heart. A huge fear enveloped his body and mind.
Seeing that Yan Xiaoqi didn't respond, he continued, "It's been ten years. Your body has become stronger and your mind more active." Surely you have already noticed something unusual inside your body and want to address the hidden dangers within it out of everyone's sight. But you are too naive. Do you think a simple summoning array from another world can solve the problem? To be chosen by the devil as the cage of evil is your greatest misfortune. Your family won't become the public enemy of the entire continent because of you. Similarly, you shouldn't collude with demons either. You should understand that making a deal with the devil will eventually lead to the loss of even your own soul.
Yan Xiaoqi remained silent. Silence was his shield. He chose to remain silent and wait and see.
Buxi continued, "I've said so much. Do you know why?"
Yan Xiaoqi raised her head, her gaze fixed on Bu Xi.
"Because the spell has been completed!" With a smile, Buxi announced, and with a light tap of the finger condensed with magical power.
Bigbi Protective Palm
A golden halo surrounded the ceaseless scene, enveloping him, Qu Du and the Red Dust Record within it, forming a protective barrier.
Bigebi held his palm
Suddenly, a huge light palm emerged, with its five fingers spread out, tightly enveloping the humanoid object that Yan Xiaoqi had transformed into.
Bigbie struck the flying palm
Immediately after, another beam of light condensed into a palm, directly striking the slender black rope behind Yan Xiaoqi that connected his body, and slapping it off with one palm.
The Vajra Palm of Bigbi
A huge golden-patterned palm descended from the sky, completely shatters Yan Xiaoqi's body composed of black insects. Its powerful force even created a huge pit ten meters deep on the ground.
"Keep company with darkness and demons. No matter who you are or what reasons you have, death is your ultimate destination." The moment he witnessed Yan Xiaoqi being knocked away, he revealed his true nature and said in a stern tone.
"Teacher!" Qu Du's face was pale and he called out cautiously.
As a descendant of the evil god, how could he be so good-for-nothing? What a good-for-nothing! With a look of displeasure on his face and a hint of hideous disdain, he scolded Qu Du.
Red Dust Record's body trembled. Unexpectedly, Bu Xi suddenly turned to him and shouted angrily, "You inherited the power of Moradin as a backup force for the plan, but you failed to complete the mission and capture the target. You are also a good-for-nothing."
Qu Du and Hong Chen Lu lowered their heads even more.
"Come on. Let's go and see what that cunning demon is capable of?" No sooner had the words been spoken than the light behind the three of them converged, forming a pair of wings of light. With a gentle flap, they shot away like arrows leaving the bowstring, reaching the sky above the deep earth.
"Humph! It's indeed the lair of the demons. Is the power of the Black Sun so intense?" With a soft snort, he carefully observed his surroundings and warily searched for possible traps.
Suddenly, a huge hand was raised high, pointing straight at the sky. A crack appeared in the overcast sky. A dim beam of light pierced through the clouds and gathered in the ceaseless hands, forming a dazzling ball of light.
Dark Star Evil Divine Palm
The light ball appeared, flew into the air, absorbed more energy in mid-air, and transformed into a huge palm hundreds of meters long, bombarding the deep of the earth with great force. Its power was so strong that even the rocks changed color, and the high temperature made the land start to melt into magma.
"Light and darkness originate from the same source; light and darkness reverse!" From the depths of the earth came a resounding shout, and the Dark Star Evil God Palm, like a brilliant flame, lashed fiercely against the armory. All the Yin energy above the oasis instantly transformed into the power of the darkness, and the Yang energy rose, covering the entire oasis.
"Ah!" Qu Du watched in terror as a dark figure shot out from the void at full speed. His palm turned into a knife, and with a light stroke, his remaining right arm was chopped off. The dark shadow then vanished into the distance.
"Light explosion!" The same attack, this time it was the voice of 'Enlightenment', as if a nuclear bomb had risen above the oasis. The huge sound waves and shock waves carried high temperatures and heat waves. The powerful sunlight transformed into light spears, shooting in all directions and destroying the protective shields around the body.
Yan Xiaoqi's body shot up into the sky like a rocket, and the light burst on the oasis was like the flames produced when a rocket was ignited. The huge impact force shot straight out of the oasis, and her figure kept speeding in the air.
"Demons of hell and the second son of the Yan family, I remember you. I will surely find you." In a place shrouded in dim light, you have nowhere to hide. Amidst the light burst, an unceasing roar of anger rang out, while Yan Xiaoqi, who was under control, wore a smile of understanding on her face.
When Yan Xiaoqi woke up in a daze, he found that he still couldn't control his body. He could only helplessly watch his body fly high in the sky, wrapped in a thick layer of white light all over.
Ok. You are overexhausted and need to have a rest for a while. And I have absorbed too much solar energy. Before the light and dark balance is achieved, I must find a safe place. Yan Xiaoqi's mind was filled with the voice of "Wu", calm yet tinged with a hint of joy.
The evil God, an existence at the top of the world, whose descendants - the descendants of the Evil God - contain the fundamental rules of the universe in their blood. As long as we find a suitable place, we can analyze the power of these rules. At least in the short term, we can get rid of the threat of being pursued. Yan Xiaoqi listened to the voice of enlightenment deep in her heart, and her gaze fell on the right arm of the man in her hand. He injected the Yang energy into it, and his arm immediately melted, turning into a mass of golden blood, which was tightly held by Yan Xiaoqi.
The evil God is the ultimate favor of the world, and every move he makes affects the vast web of laws. As descendants of the evil god, their bloodline power foretells an extraordinary future. Similarly, if we steal the bloodline of the descendants of the evil god, the vortex of the law will become even more intense. However, as long as we can dissect the basic rules from the blood, we will surely discover the cemeteries of many descendants of evil gods in the future. The "Wu" in the mirror spoke softly.
Haven't we already been blacklisted by this world? In that case, why carry out these acts that may invite hostility from the world? Yan Xiaoqi asked in puzzlement.
In the eyes of this world, we are outsiders, beings that disrupt the normal operation and circulation of the law system, malignant tumors, and villains. Therefore, if we want to completely eliminate the hostility and surveillance of this world, we must clear our identities and make the world accept us. Only by breaking free from the huge vortex of laws and making great contributions to heaven and earth can we truly avoid being held accountable for the fact of invasion. "Wu" explained. At this moment, the blood in Yan Xiaoqi's hand had already merged into his body, lingering in his lower abdomen and dantian, forming a glittering golden blood drop, like a rotating golden pill.
"Is our behavior like illegally crossing into a certain country, then making a huge contribution, benefiting the entire country, and thereby obtaining legal residency and citizenship?" Yan Xiaoqi speculated.
Although not completely accurate, the general idea is similar, but the situation is more complicated. "Wu" replied.
Where are we going now? Yan Xiaoqi asked.
Go to a place that can accept us. Wu controlled Yan Xiaoqi's body and continued to fly at high speed.
Ok. You are already very tired. Take a rest. Although the experience of death can make one grow, the depletion of the spirit is huge. Now, you should have a rest and regain your energy. The road ahead is still long. "Wu" said. Yan Xiaoqi felt herself gradually sinking into the darkness and sweetly fell asleep.
On the continent of Tatas, humans hold a dominant position, while evil gods manipulate human beliefs. Therefore, other races refer to the continent of Tatas as the Human Continent.
The continent of Grimde borders the Human continent and is ruled by the Flame Supermen, followed by orcs and other subhuman races. In the culture of Flame Man, Grimder is hailed as "the mountain under the stars". The continent is covered with continuous high mountains. Due to the extremely low temperature throughout the year and the harsh cold climate, both human and religious legions have returned empty-handed after many expeditions. The Flame Superman has firmly controlled the dominance of the continent.
Therefore, the continent of Grimder is also known as the Continent of Supermen.
The border area between the Human continent and the Superhuman Continent is extremely vast, resulting in a complex and intricate sphere of influence between the two continents. Among races and countries, there are numerous conflicts and wars. For survival and interests, the intelligent living races keep fighting and never give up any piece of land.
On the continent of Superman, the brain-eating Demons are a race renowned for their powerful combat capabilities, although their intelligence is not outstanding. The Brain-eating Demon warrior and the Brain-eating Demon Sacrifice both give human warriors a headache. If it weren't for the inherent fear of fire by the brain-eating demons, this race with high physical attack power and the high magical attack power of the two-headed brain-eating demons would surely have caused huge losses to humanity.
Brain-eating demons, like orcs, are widely distributed in groups on the Superman continent, scattered all over the place like stars. Each community is like a small principality, with its own unique culture and the war king and high priest who guard the community.
Some brain-eating demon communities have been passed down for thousands of years and still stand firm.
The Mouxuan Brain-Eating Demon Community is precisely such a thousand-year-old brain-eating demon community. They are located on a peninsula covering an area of over a thousand square kilometers at the junction of the Human Continent and the Superhuman Continent.
The area along the Zeta coast is surrounded by this peninsula that has been occupied by brain-eating demons for a thousand years. For humans, it is an excellent port. But for the brain-eating demon, it is merely a convenient fishing ground for obtaining fish and other foods.
Viewed from above, the outline of this peninsula resembles a human hand, stretching from the mainland into the sandstorm, spreading flat on the desert with the palm facing upwards. The first four fingers are gently bent, forming a series of undulating cliffs, while the palm is a lush primeval forest. The thumb was raised high, standing alone on the plain, like a huge sword piercing the clouds, sharp and steep, with smooth rocks.
The banks of the Zeta River are located on the left side of the wrist. Every autumn, countless sandstorm creatures gather here to breed and accumulate strength, so as to continue migrating with the ocean current.
At such times, the brain-eating demons welcome their feast of the year. The arrival of the fishing season, in the eyes of the brain-eating demons, was a gift from their ancestors. They brought all the prey they had caught to the foot of the towering mountain peak, lit bonfires, held ancestral worship ceremonies, and then began to enjoy a grand banquet.
This mountain peak that piercings into the clouds, surrounded by forests in the vast desert, is the center of the brain-eating demon community. The Kings of war, the priests of ruin and the warriors of all ages would be buried here after their deaths and be worshipped by the brain-eating demons.
When "Yan Xiaoqi" descended from the sky, summoned by the aura, and witnessed this terrain, she couldn't help but exclaim in her heart, "What a Five-Finger Mountain!"
Beyond the banks of the Zeta River, on the vast desert about ten kilometers from the edge of the desert, a raid by brain-eating demons is taking place. Under the totem of the Priest of Destruction, more than a dozen brain-eating demons were dashing across the desert. The center of their siege was a twenty-meter-long camel caravan. The humans in the camel caravan were terrified, with despair written all over their faces.
All humans living on the continent understand that brain-eating demons do not seek gold and silver treasures; they only long for food, and humans are the delicacies in their eyes. In the face of such an attack, whether one surrenders or not, the outcome is the same - death or becoming the food of the brain-eating demon.
A huge roar came from the desert, and the people in the camel caravan became even more desperate. The captain of the camel team had already activated the self-destruction program of the magic array, for he knew that the one who could emit battle roars from a distance of over ten kilometers and exert a suppressing effect on the enemy must be the king of war among the brain-eating demons.
The roar of the giant on the desert contains extraordinary power. Any creature that hears this roar, except the brain-eating demon, will be intimidated by its power. They move slowly, their movements are stiff, their bodies move slowly and their minds are restless.
The brain-eating demons were different. Their blood was boiling with the roar of the battle, and their already running speed in the sand sea was doubled. The huge wolf-toothed rods in their hands, carrying the bloodthirsty magical power of the brain-eating demon, flew out of their hands. The huge physical kinetic energy combined with the magical power energy, directly defeating a caravan of camels. The caravan members screamed in terror and plunged into the desert in despair.
Taga, you stupid fellow! You ruined this toy. All the humans on it are going to die. Don't think about having dinner tonight. A brain-eating demon brandishing a huge iron rod and wearing a black leather armor mercilessly scolded the brain-eating demon who had just destroyed the merchant caravan.
Ying Juan, don't think you're that smart. It would be better if these humans died. At least they wouldn't think of running away. The meat of the humans who can survive will be delicious. The brain-eating demon named Taga loudly retorted.
Enough! Stop arguing. King Zach is already impatient. Don't you want to take part in the fishing season next month? "Eliminate these humans. If we take them back, we can complete the trial and surely obtain the qualification to participate in the fishing flood." Another tall brain-eating monster with dark red skin roared.
Hearing this, the other brain-eating demons quickened their attack pace. The remaining caravans were all overthrown and sank by the powerful brain-eating demons. The people on the camel peak screamed and fell into the water, struggling and trying to escape as soon as possible.
However, whenever someone attempts to swim away, what greets them is the attack of heavy weapons, which directly shatters them into pieces.
After all the caravans were sunk, three brain-eating demons, pulling a huge net woven from blood-sucking vines, galloped over the sand sea with the power of magic.
Yan Xiaoqi concealed his aura and divinity, slowly descending into the vast desert, allowing the brain-eating demon to pull him and the other humans up like fishing, dragging them deep into the desert.
When Yan Xiaoqi truly woke up, he was already in the desert, covered in sand, feeling extremely uncomfortable and exhausted.
Yan Xiaoqi coughed violently, and so did the others. They collapsed to the ground, and due to the backflow of sand, their body functions were not adapting.
Yan Xiaoqi looked around. The scene before him deeply shocked him - these huge humanoid monsters, generally reaching a height of 2.78 meters, were as majestic as houses, scrutinizing them with the same critical gaze as when looking at prey, leaving him feeling desperate.
At this moment, among the group of brain-eating demons, a huge two-headed brain-eating demon stepped out. On its dark red skin, only a beast's fur covered its lower body. It had two heads, one eye, and a sharp horn like white jade on top of its head. The other skull has one eye and the left ear is missing. The two-headed brain-eating demon waved his hand, and a layer of blood mist condensed in it. Then he raised his large hand, and the blood mist quickly spread over all humans.
The banging sounds of people falling to the ground rose and fell one after another. All the survivors fell feebly to the ground, their mouths wide open, and they greedily inhaled the air to avoid suffocation.
The two-headed brain-eating demon walked up to the humans again and asked incoherently, "You slaves, don't want to be my food. Tell me, what can you do?"
Although Yan Xiaoqi couldn't understand the words of the two-headed brain-eating Demon, he felt a very faint tremor deep in his heart. The intentions of the brain-eating demon were clearly imprinted in his mind. Yan Xiaoqi realized that this was the power of "enlightenment".
No one responded. Perhaps it was the magic just now that made these people physically weak and unable to speak. Some even stared at these brain-eating demons with resentful eyes.
Bang...
An invisible force waved, and a person's body instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, with plasma splashing everywhere. The people around were so frightened that they screamed repeatedly.
"Useless slaves can only end up as food!" The two-headed brain-eating demon snorted disdainfully.
Tell them that you can forge weapons and make candles! In Yan Xiaoqi's mind, the voice of "enlightenment" rang out.
"Ah!" Yan Xiaoqi felt a bit uncomfortable. Even when recommending herself, it was necessary to consider the occasion. Standing out at such a time might bring about a fatal disaster.
"If you don't want to die, do as I say. Hurry up!" "Enlightenment" urged Yan Xiaoqi in her mind.
Yan Xiaoqi gritted her teeth and slowly stood up, stammering out, "I can forge weapons and even make candles." After saying that, he added, "Please don't eat me."
Both the Brain-eating Demon and the two-headed Brain-eating Demon burst into laughter. Those smiles seemed extremely terrifying to everyone.
The two-headed brain-eating demon spoke slowly, "Slave, as long as you can forge weapons, you can live a good life here. We won't eat you, and you can even freely choose your spouse." I know that you humans have a preference for beautiful women. I have to admit that their meat is indeed delicious. As long as you can prove greater value, I'm in charge. Let these delicacies be your companions and you can mate with them as you please. How about it, slave?
Promise him! The voice of "enlightenment" echoed in my mind.
Yan Xiaoqi trembled as she replied, "Sure, sure. No problem. As long as you don't eat me, I can do anything." Weapons, I can also forge. Absolutely, absolutely no problem.
No, you traitor of humanity. This man doesn't belong to the peak of our camel herd. He must be a spy from another country, intending to infiltrate your territory and cause destruction. Kill him. Kill him at once. At this moment, a bearded old man suddenly stood up, pointed at Yan Xiaoqi and shouted a sharp rebuke.
A dark shadow spun and flew out, smashing the body of the middle-aged man with a big beard to pieces.
The brain-eating demon beside him, Tagamuxuan, said contemptuously, "Useless humans, of no value, can only become food." "Phew."
The tragic death of the bearded man and the bloody scene plunged all the survivors into deep despair. Some people raised their hands trembling in the contemptuous looks of their companions and reported their skills.
Well done! The two-headed brain-eating demon examined the dozen or so laborers who were capable of handling various jobs and smiled contentedly. Then, his face darkened and he said viciously to those still stubborn humans, "Take these foods into the cave and make sure they stay alive." After the fishing season is over, they will be delicious rations.
So, many brain-eating demons led other humans who refused to yield towards a mountain path. The two-headed brain-eating Demon led Yan Xiaoqi and the other thirteen people down a different path.
Why? Yan Xiaoqi asked "Wu" in her heart.
Do you sympathize with those humans, or can't stand their contemptuous looks at traitors? Wu's voice was unusually calm.
"Can't we kill all the brain-eating demons and save these humans?" Yan Xiaoqi asked uneasily in her heart.
"Hehe..." Wu chuckled softly in Yan Xiaoqi's mind, his tone calm: "Don't forget, for us, whether it's the entire world or the creatures living in it, we are all outsiders." We are outsiders of this cosmic mark and enemies of all life. Even if we don't intend to save these humans, what ability do we have to save them?
"I..." Yan Xiaoqi tried to argue.
I understand. You might want to say that with our strength, perhaps we can wipe out all the Undead. Wu interrupted him.
Yan Xiaoqi nodded. That's exactly what he thought. The mutual slaughter among humans, even Yan Xiaoqi's own killing, is all for survival. However, when faced with the same humans being slaughtered by monsters, he still felt a sharp pain in his heart. Perhaps this was the result of human racism at play.
Perhaps you are thinking in your heart that I kill people to survive, but seeing humans being killed by monsters, even though these humans are my enemies, I still feel extremely unhappy in my heart. I can kill people, but others can't. Wu continued to speak.
Yan Xiaoqi nodded silently.
Wu went on to say, "But don't forget, we have been marked by the world and we are still being hunted down." We even seized the arm of a descendant of an evil god, turned it into blood, and attempted to interpret the rules of this world and steal the secrets of the evil god. Once we act, it will surely cause a huge commotion. At that time, the enemies we have struggled to get rid of will swarm in like sharks smelling blood. Facing so many enemies, how many can we kill? One, ten, or a hundred? By then, even the person you just saved might pick up a weapon and swing a knife at you. Because we are the enemies of the whole world.
Wu's words made Yan Xiaoqi feel lost and painful.
So what should we do now? Just live here like this and become a slave to these monsters? Yan Xiaoqi retorted, feeling lost about the future.
When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on someone, it will first torment his mind and spirit, toil his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, impoverish him, and enhance his abilities. Wu said in an encouraging tone.
Yan Xiaoqi shook her head. "I don't understand. Do you want me to live on strongly?"
Please understand that although we share the same hometown, you and I are independent individuals. Although we came together for the need of survival, this cannot change our respective natures. Without you, I might be suppressed by this world and return empty-handed a thousand years later. But without me, you might be swallowed up by countless accidents and become the nourishment of this world. Therefore, you must hold firm to your beliefs, grow bravely, climb to the peak of the strong, and ensure that you can survive safely in the other world even without me. Wu softly warned Yan Xiaoqi not to always rely on others. Big trees may collapse, rocks may shatter, and deserts may dry up. Only one's own bravery and strength are the true power.
Yan Xiaoqi suddenly asked excitedly, "What did you just say?" Did you mention that we could go back, back to our hometown? "
The time-travel experiences of others are always full of splendor and endless possibilities. Become the protagonist and enjoy the glory. However, for Yan Xiaoqi, time travel means constantly striving for survival, and even at this moment, she has to face the threat of death.
The other world is not a paradise. Here, there are no family members, no friends, no mobile phones, no computers, no Internet, and no entertainment venues. Every creature seen here either wants to eliminate him or kill him.
Returning to her hometown seems like an unattainable dream to Yan Xiaoqi now. However, at this moment, he unexpectedly heard that it was possible to reverse time travel, to return to his own world, to his own body, and to that life he once didn't know how to cherish. This news instantly threw Yan Xiaoqi into extreme excitement.
Don't be too happy too early. I'm crossing the border illegally. Once caught, one will be suppressed in this world for at most a thousand years. They can't erase my mark. At most, they can only send me back. And you, however, are a death row inmate. Once they resist arrest, they have the right to shoot you dead on the spot. Even if you are caught, they will squeeze you into gravy. To this world, your soul is a supplement to knowledge and an absorption of external elements. Your existence is of great significance. Wu poured cold water on Yan Xiaoqi, who was lost in her fantasies.
So, my way home is ultimately just a dream! Yan Xiaoqi sighed and said.
It's better to have a dream than no hope. After all, hope is the driving force for all living beings to move forward, evolve and grow. As long as we have hope, we should live healthily and desperately. Only by being alive can there be hope. Only by not dying can one realize their dreams. "Wu" encouraged Yan Xiaoqi.
Well, what should we do? Yan Xiaoqi asked.
Therefore, we must settle down here. On the one hand, analyze the rules of the bloodline of the descendants of the evil god; on the other hand, strengthen oneself and seek the protection of the brain-eating demon community. Let these brain-eating demons be our most solid shields. "Wu" said firmly.
"Ok!" I will surely live strongly and strive to grow. Yan Xiaoqi responded.
---
After Yan Xiaoqi had strengthened her belief, she looked up and found that everyone had already arrived in front of a cave. The Two-headed brain-eating Demon led Yan Xiaoqi and the others into it. The inside of the cave was obviously hotter and drier than the outside. The further you went in, the more turbid the air became and the higher the temperature. More than ten people came to a platform where flames were burning fiercely.
The two-headed brain-eating demon turned around and said to Yan Xiaoqi, "Slave, if you want to survive, let me see your craftsmanship now." If you can't satisfy me, then your fate will be to become my food.
A trace of panic flashed across Yan Xiaoqi's eyes.
Leave it to me. The voice of "enlightenment" rang out in her mind. At the same time, a warm current spread throughout her body, and Yan Xiaoqi's body was once again controlled by "enlightenment".
Yan Xiaoqi raised her head, a confident light flashing in her eyes, and asked the two-headed brain-eating demon, "May I ask your name, Sir?"
"Mu Xuan." The two-headed brain-eating demon held his head high and answered proudly.
"I wonder what kind of weapon you need, Sir?" Yan Xiaoqi continued to ask.
"Do as you please. As long as you can satisfy me, you can survive in this place and avoid the fate of becoming food." The two-headed brain-eater grinned and replied with a hideous expression.
After hearing this, Yan Xiaoqi began to take a close look at the two-headed brain eater.
Facing Yan Xiaoqi's gaze, the two-headed brain-eating demon Mu Xuan carefully stepped back. He felt as if he were facing a powerful enemy. His skin was taut all over his body, and the magic power within him was almost about to burst out, completely eliminating the human race that threatened him before him.
Yan Xiaoqi took a step forward, while Mu Xuan took a step back. Then, Mu Xuan felt ashamed and angry at his own retreat. He strode forward and stood in front of Yan Xiaoqi, his eyes showing a murderous intent.
Yan Xiaoqi carefully examined the right hand of the two-headed brain-eating demon Mou Xuan. Just as he was about to act, he softly suggested, "Sir, may I measure the size of your arm?"
Mu Xuan was furious at his own timidity just now. He snorted disdainfully and replied, "Sure."
Yan Xiaoqi smiled and picked up a tiny branch from the side, precisely measuring the length of the brain-eating demon's arm. After nodding in confirmation, he walked towards a roaring furnace and turned to the two-headed brain-eating demon, saying, "Sir, I can use our family's secret technique to create a unique weapon for you." However, given my current poor physical condition, it will take me a month to recover after the construction is completed. If you are satisfied with the weapons, I hope that during this period you can provide food and water to ensure my safety and, most importantly, I will not be eaten as food.
The two-headed brain-eater was curious and amused by the human's confidence. He said slowly, "To my satisfaction?" A special weapon that can satisfy my double-headed brain eater? Sure. As long as you can satisfy me, I will naturally meet your requirements. But what if I'm not satisfied?
If I can't satisfy you, I'll do as you please. Whether frying or stir-frying, I have no complaints at all. However, during the creation process, I need your cooperation. Yan Xiaoqi answered confidently and cheerfully.
"Ok, little human, I'll cooperate with you." I hope your efforts can satisfy me. The two-headed brain-eating demon nodded in agreement.
Yan Xiaoqi nodded in understanding and said no more. Then she turned around and took out a piece of pig iron from the side and threw it into the stove. With the scorching heat inside the furnace, more iron blocks were thrown into it. Soon, the pig iron was melted and turned into molten iron, which flowed through the holes into the adjacent mold, forming an iron plate with a thickness of up to ten centimeters.
Yan Xiaoqi threw the pig iron into the stove again. At the same time, she took out a slender iron cone from the tool cabinet and placed the pointed part into the stove to heat it up.
When the pig iron melted into molten iron and formed a red iron plate, he pulled out the iron cone, gazed at the red-hot tip, and carefully carved on the iron plate, reciting incantation in a low voice while carving.
After the iron plate was completely covered with mysterious patterns, he threw the iron cone into the stove again. Then, he casually grabbed a handful of thorn seeds from the wooden frame beside the tool cabinet and scattered them on the iron plate without hesitation. Although the iron plate has cooled down, there is still a huge amount of heat hidden inside it. As soon as the thorn seeds come into contact with the iron plate, they start to burn due to reaching the self-ignition temperature, and the brief flames jump on the iron plate.
After Yan Xiaoqi waited for the thorn seeds to completely turn to ashes, she once again threw the dark iron plate into the stove with her pliers. The flame intensified and the temperature rose.
The cast iron plate covered with words was melted again into molten iron, which was led out from the holes and solidified into a new iron plate on the adjacent stone platform.
He pulled out the iron cone again, carved various exquisite patterns on the iron plate, and kept making low and rhythmic sounds from his mouth at the same time.
After the carving and chanting were over, he scraped lime off the rock wall with an iron cone and scattered it on the iron plate.
Then, he evenly filled the lime into the etched patterns on the iron plate, swung the sledgehammer and kept striking the iron plate.
A ten-centimeter-thick iron plate became uneven under the continuous hammering of the sledgehammer, and its appearance appeared extremely rough.
Yan Xiaoqi put down the hammer and turned to the two-headed brain-eating demon, saying, "Sir, I need your blood."
The two-headed brain-eating demon Iron Tree frowned. Although he didn't know much about casting, he still had a basic understanding of weapon crafting. However, he couldn't understand Yan Xiaoqi's profound behavior. If it weren't for the confidence and profound calmness in Yan Xiaoqi's eyes, the two-headed brain-eating Demon would have almost torn and devoured this mortal who dared to deceive him.
But it was precisely Yan Xiaoqi's composure and confidence that made the two-headed brain-eating demon stretch out his arm, gently scratch his wrist with his fingernail, and a stream of blood gushed out, landing on the ugly iron plate and making a hissing sound.
As soon as the blood came into contact with the iron plate, Yan Xiaoqi suddenly started to move. The hammer in her hand swung wildly again, striking the iron plate, and at the same time, the words in her mouth became extremely rapid.
This continuous and powerful swing of the sledgehammer made the two-headed brain-eater slightly lower his guard. Although the brain-eating Demon was not familiar with the Chinese saying "If you don't have the right tools, don't take on the job of porcelain", it instinctively understood this principle. Especially when seeing Yan Xiaoqi, a seemingly thin human, capable of swinging a sledgehammer with exactly the same rhythm, coupled with the fanaticness in his eyes, the wariness in the brain eater's heart was further alleviated. When the Brain-eating demon casts the bloodthirsty spell within its own clan, it also shows the same level of concentration and fanaticism in its calmness. The serenity that emanates from its madness makes its bloodthirsty spell beyond the reach of even the high priest within the clan.
This situation made the two-headed brain-eating demon develop a slight affection for Yan Xiaoqi, but the brain-eating demon's affection was always related to food. Therefore, it suppressed its inner excitement and continued to observe Yan Xiaoqi's movements.
The huge hammer fell, making two dull clanging sounds. This was a double strike. Then, this tapping method kept appearing in Yan Xiaoqi's movements until he threw the ugly and completely deformed iron plate into the stove, and only then did everyone wake up as if from a dream.
Having some free time, Yan Xiaoqi pulled out a huge basin from the side. Although to humans, this basin was equivalent to a small water VAT.
After filling the basin with water, he put it aside and took out a small vessel similar to a spittoon, placing it in front of the Iron Tree Brain Eater, saying, "I need a lot of blood to learn."
This time, Mu Xuan didn't hesitate for a moment. With a swipe of his finger on his wrist, blood gushed out and soon filled the vessel.
Meanwhile, the iron plate had completely melted and re-solidified into a red iron plate through the holes on the platform.
Yan Xiaoqi carried the vessel to the iron plate, lifted it up, brought the spittoon to her mouth, took a deep breath of blood, and then sprayed it onto the iron plate. The iron plate made a hissing sound.
Putting the vessel aside, disregarding the bloodstain remaining at the corner of his mouth, he picked up an iron cone and dipped the red-hot tip into the spittoon, staining it with blood. However, due to the high temperature, the blood evaporates rapidly when it comes into contact with the tip, making it impossible to determine whether there is truly blood adhering to it.
However, when the iron cone was placed back into the vessel, it remained red, but the tip showed a different shade of scarlet. This subtle change was keenly detected by the two-headed brain-eating Demon, and a wave of anticipation welled up in his heart.
After the iron cone was stained with blood, it was carved again on the iron plate in front of it, while reciting the incantation in a low voice at the same time. The engraving speed of the iron cone was extremely fast, while the chanting of the incantation was exceptionally slow. This disharmony was strange, and extreme discomfort welled up in the hearts of the onlookers.
Whenever the iron cone completes one-tenth of the pattern on the iron plate, it will be re-immersed in the blood-red vessel and then continue to carve.
When the entire iron plate was covered with patterns, "Yan Xiaoqi" put down the iron cone, threw it into the stove, looked around, and then pointed at a thin and fair-skinned boy who seemed to be only seventeen years old, saying, "You, come here."
This young man's performance on the desert beach was decent, even more outstanding than that of "Yan Xiaoqi". Later, he recommended himself that he was capable of making paper, especially those with magical powers.
These papers with magical powers were worth as much as low-level magic scrolls and gold rune papers, so the young man was taken in as a precious tool.
Now called by "Yan Xiaoqi", although the young man was reluctant in his heart, he still walked forward. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he was grabbed by the shoulder by the two-headed brain-eating monster.
The Two-headed brain-eating Demon naturally would not allow humans to interfere in the creation of his exclusive weapon, so he decided to personally assist Yan Xiaoqi in crafting the weapon.
Although the Iron Tree Double-Headed Brain-Eating Demon had no idea what its exclusive weapon in the future would eventually look like, upon seeing "Yan Xiaoqi's" actions, it seemed to think it was a remarkable thing and thus became very concerned.
"Let me help you!" The two-headed brain-eating demon rudely declared and pushed the young man aside. Judging from the situation, if 'Yan Xiaoqi' insisted, it might tear the chosen child to pieces.
I am deeply honored that Your Excellency is willing to help. In fact, you don't need to do anything complicated. Just sprinkle water on the iron plate. No matter what I'm doing, this action can't stop. Do you understand? Yan Xiaoqi was surprised by the sudden help from the brain-eating Demon and then explained with a smile.
"Ok, OK. I understand." The two-headed brain-eating monster nodded nervously like a child.
"Start!" With Yan Xiaoqi's command, the big hand of the brain-eating Demon dived into the basin, bent it and picked up the water. Then it was pushed out, and water droplets fell on the hot iron plate, rising with swirling steam.
Yan Xiaoqi's expression was solemn. He raised the hammer, placed it steadily in front of him, took a deep breath, and then slowly raised and slowly lowered the hammer. The movement was as if gently patting someone's shoulder, only ten times slower. It was exactly Yan Xiaoqi's behavior at this moment.
The hammer fell slowly, seemingly gentle and weak. But when it touched the iron plate, it made seventeen consecutive loud noises, with the clanging sounds almost forming a continuous line.
The hammer was raised slowly again. During this process, Yan Xiaoqi recited the mysterious incantation once more. Her voice was swift and hard to recognize, only making people feel a sharp scream, like the frightened scream of a girl when encountering a criminal in the middle of the night, sharp and shrill.
The rapid fall of the hammer and the shrill screams from their mouths made most of the people present feel chest tightness and shortness of breath, flustered and confused. They found everything unpleasant and couldn't help turning their heads away. Only the two-headed brain-eating demon was concentrating intently on constantly fetching water from the basin and sprinkling it onto the iron plate.
The hammer fell again, with seventeen consecutive loud bangs. The hammer was raised high, and a shrill scream rang out once more. The two sounds rose and fell in succession.
When the iron plate was struck unevenly and became extremely ugly, neither the two-headed brain-eating Demon nor the others present would think that Yan Xiaoqi's actions were merely a performance. They could all sense that this was a unique method of weapon forging, which contained many mysterious elements that they did not understand. But even if one doesn't understand, as long as one observes carefully, one can discover the extraordinary aspects within.
The carnivorous air emanating from Yan Xiaoqi clearly indicates that he is no ordinary person. In the human world, he must come from a prominent family with a long history and be a direct descendant. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to master the family's top-secret inheritance.
Ignoring the reactions of those around her, Yan Xiaoqi once again threw the distorted iron plate into the stove. After the iron plate melted into molten iron, flowed out through the channels and re-solidified and took shape on the stone platform, he stretched it with pliers to make an iron plate half a meter long and thirty centimeters wide. Under the astonished gaze of everyone, he disregarded the terror in their eyes and reached out his hands to touch the already formed iron block.
When Yan Xiaoqi touched the scorching iron block, a golden spike emerged from the dark shadow transformed by the huge mirror deep in his heart, following his bloodline from the top of his head all the way to his lower abdomen, piercing into the blood drop formed from the blood of the right arm of the evil god's descendant.
A golden spike suddenly pierced through, and the originally calm and swirling blood drop instantly became violent, as if a sleeping beast had suddenly suffered a fatal blow. Immediately after, hundreds of blood-red fine threads shot out from the blood beads and pierced through Yan Xiaoqi's entire body. Waves of golden-red energy like desert waves flow through these thin lines.
Amidst the frightened gazes of everyone, Yan Xiaoqi reached out and compressed the rectangular iron block, which was thirty centimeters thick, into a rectangular armshell that was half a meter long, thirty centimeters wide, and only ten centimeters thick. This armarmor was bent at high temperatures to form a protective armor that could be worn over the huge arm.
Holding the semi-finished product in both hands, Yan Xiaoqi's face was pale and her steps were unsteady, showing extreme exhaustion. He slowly walked towards the two-headed brain-eating demon and weakly said, "Blood!"
This time, the two-headed brain-eating demon, Mu Xuan, was very straightforward. He directly raised his arm and with a swipe of his finger on his wrist, a large amount of blood gushed out and landed on the armband held high by "Yan Xiaoqi". As "Yan Xiaoqi" kept reciting mysterious incantations below, layers of runes unexpectedly lit up on the armband one after another. The golden runes revealed natural fluctuations of power.
This situation surprised everyone and made the two-headed brain eater ecstatic.
The blood within "Yan Xiaoqi's" body also burst forth with power due to "Wu's" probing. As the armband raised high on her wrist shone, the blood vessels within her body seemed to have found an outlet for energy release. Carrying the energy of the blood itself, they continuously flowed through her arm and gathered on her wrist, attempting to thoroughly wipe out the power on the armband.
At this moment, "Yan Xiaoqi", with his armors raised high, gently lifted his little fingers and thumbs, forming a specific gesture. He then shouted, "Stop!"
With the explosive shout of the character "镇" with three quivering sounds, the radiance of the armarmor on the wrist gradually dissipated. The vigorous blood energy within the body vanished in an instant, just like the flames in a fireplace being hit by a high-pressure water gun. All the energy failed to return to the blood beads in the lower abdomen in time and instead spread to every corner of the body.
"Done." Yan Xiaoqi examined her physical condition and felt extremely exhausted. Then she fastened the armband onto the right arm of the two-handed brain-eating demon, fitting it perfectly and seamlessly, as if it were tailor-made.
"Hehehe..." The two-headed brain-eating demon showed a simple and honest smile and said, "This is a magical item, extremely rare. Only occasionally does one appear in the human world." I can sense the magical power within it, which is completely different from the magic staff of the human race.
"Exactly!" Yan Xiaoqi responded with a pale face and then explained in detail, "It's not a magic wand, but a magic item." It has no other functions. It only has three effects: gain, speed increase and great power.
"Buff, which can make your casting speed more rapid and enhance your resistance to magical attacks."
"Increasing speed can boost your action speed by 20%." "
"Giant power can double your attack power." Imagine that with a swing of your stick, you could originally knock away a hundred people, but now you can knock away two hundred.
I never expected that there would be such a magical item. The two-headed brain-eating demon was so infatuated with the armillary armor that he was almost salivating.
The core concepts of these three kinds of magic can be summarized in just one sentence. "Yan Xiaoqi" barely propped herself up and proudly declared.
Which sentence is it? The two-headed brain-eating demon asked curiously, a silly smile playing on his face.
"Only speed can break through, and nothing can be broken." "
It sounds so profound. The two-headed brain-eating monster was laughing as he spoke, his saliva almost dripping down, and his fingers tightly clasped onto his armillary armor.
"Well, Sir, are you satisfied with this exclusive weapon?" Yan Xiaoqi tried hard to keep standing. Despite her pale face, she still asked with a smile.
Satisfied. Very satisfied. The two-headed brain-eating monster grinned wide, showing a satisfied expression.
"Since that's the case, please arrange accommodation for me and provide food so that I can build more equipment for you and your tribe." " Yan Xiaoqi smiled and pleaded, but her body slumped to the ground feebly.
"Ok. I'll go and find the senior elder right away and let him arrange it for you." Slave? No, warrior of the human race, you are indeed excellent. The two-headed brain-eating demon left the cave alone in high spirits.
