Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 173 Vortex Core, Surprise

Although the approximate location of the Ancient God Ruins were mentioned in the books that Wang Xiu had obtained before, there was only a brief introduction to the interior of the Ancient God Ruins.

As a result, Wang Xiu now only knows a general idea about the ancient god ruins.

Even though Wang Xiu still had the memories of his past life, he only knew that there was an Immortal Temple with 10081 evil whirlpools in the ruins of the ancient gods.

As for the location of each evil vortex?
Then Wang Xiu can only go and look for it slowly.

Fortunately, Wang Xiu had plenty of time on this trip, so he continued to advance and practice in the boundless ruins of the ancient gods.

At the beginning, if Wang Xiu occasionally encountered an area with strong evil spirit, he would stay there for a few days to feel the transformation of his body by the evil spirit in the ancient god ruins.

However, after doing it a few times, Wang Xiu no longer stopped.

These so-called places with strong evil spirits have very limited improvement in the efficiency of body transformation compared to other places in the ancient god ruins.

Wang Xiu's attention was still on the vortex of evil energy.

If Wang Xiu remembered correctly, there would be a column of secret patterns of laws inside the vortex of evil energy. Those were the traces left by the battle between the Beast God and the super powerful human being.

The Secret Pattern Column of Laws will emit a golden misty light, and its effect in transforming the body is much stronger than these so-called ones.

Of course, although this golden hazy light is beautiful, it is after all within a vortex of evil energy.

To enter the vortex of evil spirit, the terrifying impact of the murderous will is not something that ordinary people can withstand.

That is to say, Wang Xiu was confident that he had reached the second level of his state of mind and his spiritual will was comparable to that of an immortal marquis, otherwise he would not have dared to attack this vortex of evil energy.

half a month later.

"Hmm?" Wang Xiu stood on a mountain hundreds of thousands of meters high and looked into the distance. There was an extremely huge deep pit. "What a big deep pit... It's bigger than the deep pits I've seen before. I estimate that it has a diameter of hundreds of thousands of kilometers."

“It should be about here.”

Along the way, Wang Xiu encountered other deep pits besides this one, but their diameters were only tens of kilometers, and the largest was only hundreds of kilometers in diameter.

There was also a strong evil spirit gathering in those deep pits, but it had not formed any whirlpools of evil spirit.

There are no so-called secret patterns of laws in the pit.

This was the first time Wang Xiu encountered a deep pit with a diameter of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, which made him feel a little excited.

The speed of the ninth level of the universe is extremely fast, exceeding three hundred kilometers in one second.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Xiu had already arrived near the deep pit.

Wang Xiu stood on the edge of this huge deep pit and felt a vague breath coming towards him.

That breath is powerful, ancient, and crazy...

"Such a strong evil spirit, such an ancient atmosphere." Wang Xiu took a look and saw that the pit was bottomless.

Before, when he was standing on a mountain hundreds of thousands of meters high, he could barely discern the edge of this huge deep pit, but when Wang Xiu stood on the edge... looking from afar, he could not see the end at all, it just felt endless.

"This should be the place I'm looking for." Wang Xiu muttered, "I remember that there seemed to be a very powerful realm master who was cultivating in a huge deep pit in the ruins of the ancient gods."

"Could it be here?" Wang Xiu looked at the huge deep pit in front of him, a little hesitant.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xiu looked determined and made up his mind.

"Whatever. In the original storyline, that guy was also at the bottom of the giant pit."

"Even if that realm master is right here, I'm not afraid. My target is the evil vortex anyway. As long as I don't go under the giant pit, I won't be afraid."

"Besides, I shouldn't be that unlucky."

After making up his mind, Wang Xiu turned into a ray of golden light and flew towards the center of the deep pit.

Wang Xiu followed the concentration of the evil energy and flew towards the direction where the evil energy was thick.

In just a moment, Wang Xiu flew tens of thousands of kilometers.

"What a strong impact of will." Arriving here, feeling the impact of evil spirits everywhere around him, even Wang Xiu couldn't help but change his expression.

"The strength of the will impact here is probably comparable to that of ordinary immortals." Wang Xiu couldn't help but be a little surprised, but at the same time, Wang Xiu felt relieved.

This is definitely not the huge pit where Luo Feng stayed in the original storyline.

In the original storyline, even though Luo Feng had tempered his will in that vortex of evil energy for decades, when he finally succeeded in breaking into the core of that vortex of evil energy, his will was only at a level comparable to that of an immortal.

But now, Wang Xiu is still far away from the core of this evil vortex.

After flying forward for a while, Wang Xiu felt the increasingly strong impact of the murderous will around him. He immediately calmed his mind and began to concentrate on dealing with the impact of the murderous will.

This is different from the fusion of blood crystal.

When fusing with the Blood Crystal, even if you can't withstand the impact of the murderous will, it won't be a big deal.

In the entire Xueluo world, no one has ever heard of anyone turning into a murderous maniac because of failure in fusing with Xueluo Crystal.

However, in this vortex of evil, if one cannot withstand the impact of this strong murderous will, the best outcome would be to become a murderous maniac.

What's worse, you may even die directly!
Slowly, Wang Xiu's flying speed became slower and slower, and the evil spirit around him became increasingly dense.

The concentration of evil energy at the place where Wang Xiu is now is ten times that of the edge of the giant pit!
The evil spirit in front of Wang Xiu's eyes had turned as red as blood, and was constantly spinning in a vortex shape at a scale visible to the naked eye!
With the concentration of evil energy ten times higher, most of Wang Xiu’s mind had to be focused on resisting the impact of the killing will.

Although Wang Xiu's flying speed slowed down a lot, his concentration increased even faster.

"The concentration of evil energy is increasing so quickly, it seems that it is about to reach the core of the evil energy vortex." Wang Xiu secretly estimated the pressure brought to himself by the impact of the surrounding murderous will, and he felt more confident.

There is a play!

Eleven times the concentration!
"Hmm?" Wang Xiu suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"The core of the vortex!" Wang Xiu saw the core of the vortex evil energy dozens of kilometers away. The evil energy at the core was so thick that it made people tremble, like a red sun!

At the same time, the core of the vortex was emitting an ancient and eternal aura, and even an invisible temptation penetrated into Wang Xiu's mind.

"bring it on!"

"bring it on!"

"Come to me!" The invisible call penetrated into Wang Xiu's sea of ​​consciousness.

“Get out of here!!!” Wang Xiu let out a roar that shook the entire sea of ​​consciousness, instantly completely destroying the temptation that had invaded the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, crushing it to pieces, “How dare you tempt me!”

Wang Xiu stared at the core of the vortex with sharp eyes.

After a moment, Wang Xiu concentrated his mind, his will was so firm that he was not moved by the temptation of invasion at all, and continued to fly towards the core of the evil vortex dozens of kilometers away.

As Wang Xiu got closer and closer to the core of the evil vortex, the invasion and temptation of the murderous will around him became stronger and stronger. However, Wang Xiu was not moved at all. His will was so firm that he resisted those invasions and temptations time and time again.

Gradually approaching the "core of the vortex", the murderous will and temptation became stronger and stronger. Wang Xiu, who was flying close to the "red sphere" that looked like the sun, became more cautious.

The distance is still 50 meters, 40 meters, 30 meters, 20 meters, 10 meters...

The red sphere is right in front of you.

It was the core of this huge vortex of evil spirit. "Boom boom..." An ancient invisible breath filled the air, making Wang Xiu feel like an ant facing a dragon of heaven and earth.

"Even if I am an ant, I am an ant that can kill the dragon."

Wang Xiu instantly abandoned the awe that naturally arose in his heart, and at the same time took a step into the dazzling red light ball that was emitting a vortex of evil energy that was much larger than the entire earth.

The entire core area of ​​the evil vortex returned to calm, and the black-armored figure could no longer be seen.

……

The core of the evil vortex - in the red ball of light.

Wang Xiu flew forward slowly, but he felt that his will to kill was weakening: "The will to kill is constantly weakening... We are almost there."

Flying slowly at a speed slower than an average person's walking speed, it flew about 30 meters, and what it saw in front of it was still a rich "red"

puff!
Wang Xiu broke through the outer layer of the red light ball and saw the scene in front of him.

"Ang, Mo, Da..."

The sound that directly penetrates the human soul kept ringing in Wang Xiu's consciousness. There was no regular ancient note, and each note contained a supreme, endless and ancient breath.

At the same time, Wang Xiu looked at the scene in front of him in shock...

There was no trace of red evil energy inside the red light ball, but there were huge golden secret patterns as thick as arms.

Each golden secret pattern was extremely complex, with a total of 16 golden secret patterns that were nearly 16 meters long, entangled with each other and swirling in this space. Waves of auras that made people's hearts palpitate and submit were emanating from the golden secret patterns.

At the same time, 16 huge golden secret lines are also emitting golden light, covering this area.

The golden light flows slowly, making the surroundings feel like a holy place.

Suddenly, Wang Xiu's pupils shrank.

In the center of the 16 huge golden secret patterns, there is a translucent golden statue about centimeters long.

The golden statue resembled a giant lizard, with a long tail, thick hooves, and a single horn on its forehead! A fierce aura emanated from this mysterious ancient statue.

"Violent!"

The moment Wang Xiu saw the statue, a sharp and crazy roar echoed in his ears, causing Wang Xiu's expression to change immediately.

"Is this the statue of the Beast God?" Wang Xiu came back to his senses and carefully avoided the huge golden secret pattern column. He came to the light golden statue, and a strange look appeared on his face.

This beast statue is as useful as the Chaos Monument to the golden-horned giant beast and the beginners of the way of the beast.

His status in the Xueluo Continent is also extremely high.

Most of the beast god statues were collected by the Immortal Temple, and only a few were lost outside.

Wang Xiu only knew the whereabouts of one of them, but that other one is still in the world ring of a dead immortal. It will not come out until the world ring decays in a few decades.

Now even if Wang Xiu wanted to find it, there was nowhere to look.

But I didn’t expect to encounter a statue of the beast god here today.

"This is a good thing." Wang Xiu picked up the statue of the beast god and looked at it carefully.

The entire body of the beast god statue is made of jade and gold, which are generally precious materials used to make immortal weapons.

Even if the materials were melted down and sold, this beast god statue would still be a huge fortune for a cosmic level being.

Not to mention the true meaning of the Beast God contained in it. For those practitioners who practice the Beast God, this statue of the Beast God is simply a priceless treasure!

"What a pity, I can't understand the true meaning of the Beast God." Wang Xiu looked at the Beast God statue with a hint of regret in his eyes.

Wang Xiu had no understanding of the way of the Beast God, and unlike Luo Feng, he did not have a golden-horned giant beast clone. He could not understand the true meaning of the Beast God contained in the Beast God statue at all.

All I could feel was a faint, ancient, heart-pounding breath.

"The beast god statue is good, but it's a pity that I can't use it." Wang Xiu touched his chin and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.

"Forget it, let's put it away first and talk about it when we get back." Wang Xiu waved his hand, and the statue of the beast god in front of him disappeared immediately.

Wang Xiu's current attitude towards this unexpected gain is to use it if he can.

After all, if it can be used, if Wang Xiu follows the path of the Beast God, then with the Beast God statue, Wang Xiu is equivalent to practicing with the Chaos Monument every day, and the speed of practice will definitely be much faster than it is now.

But if it is not necessary, Wang Xiu will not force it.

After all, Wang Xiu is a man with a system. There are many ways to become stronger. There is no need to follow the path of the Beast God.

"My body..." Wang Xiu regained his attention and quickly noticed the changes in his body.

Every cell in my body seemed to be boiling.

It is constantly changing.

This change is exactly the same as the transformation of the body when evil spirits invade, but the speed is thousands of times faster.

"Yes, one day here can equal several years of progress in the outside world." Wang Xiu nodded with satisfaction, "After the body is saturated, the tenth Blood Crystal should be able to fuse successfully."

"Then it's time to leave the Ancient God Ruins and continue searching for the Blood Crystal."

Wang Xiu knew very well that when it came to fusing Blood Luo Crystals, being able to fuse ten times the Blood Luo Crystals was already the limit in the Blood Luo Continent.

If you want to continue the integration, there is only one way, which is to improve your own genetic level.

Wang Xiu raised his head and looked at the 16 huge golden secret pattern pillars standing in the void.

These 16 golden secret pattern pillars may seem simple, but they contain the way of the Beast God. Even if it is only a part of it, it is not something that Wang Xiu can understand now.

The difference in levels is too huge.

“What a pity. If I had the understanding of the laws at the king level now, even if I knew nothing about the way of the Beast God, I would probably be able to gain some benefits from it.” Wang Xiu felt a pity as he looked at the huge secret pattern column in front of him, which exuded the aura of the origin law of gold and the origin law of space at the same time.

But in a flash, Wang Xiu returned to his previous calmness.

If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, it's my fate. There's nothing to worry about.

The golden misty light emitted by the golden secret pattern column also naturally formed four images.

The image showed a one-horned lizard monster fighting a giant hand, but Wang Xiu didn't care.

Are you kidding? Wang Xiu even has a statue of the beast god, so why would he care about just four ancient pictures?

Moreover, Wang Xiu is different from Luo Feng in the original story line. At that time, Luo Feng had actually gained some understanding of the way of the Beast God after decades of contemplation.

It is naturally easier to remember.

Although Wang Xiu has a high level of understanding of the laws of the origin of gold and the law of the origin of space, he has no understanding of the law of the fusion of gold and space, which is the way of the Beast God.

Memorizing these four ancient images is extremely strenuous, and it is also difficult to grasp their meaning.

Wang Xiu naturally would not do such a thankless task.
