Devourer of the Six Realms

Chapter 31 Ancient Ruins

In the space under the stone pagoda, a gloomy and cold atmosphere gradually condensed.

That kind of breath seems to have condensed into a viscous substance, turning into strands of black smoke, some of which penetrated into the stone wall, and some slowly spread outward.

Dark and cold, this is what Jin Xiaokai is thinking at this moment.

Now in that underground passage, Jin Xiaokai is the only one left.

This is already the seventh day that Jin Xiaokai has been here, and Mi Zhugong no longer needs to stay by his side to watch, so Jin Xiaokai will naturally be able to complete the tasks assigned by Mi Zhugong relatively smoothly.

After these few days of tempering and pondering, Jin Xiaokai has roughly understood how to quickly generate Yuanli, and it can be applied to excavation.In fact, this method is extremely easy to use and has a wide range of uses, even Jin Xiaokai suspected that if he would use this method before, he would be able to defeat even the Demon Devourer Lei Guan!
Of course, this is just speculation, after all, Lei Guan hadn't used his true strength at that time, so who knows if he still has any powerful hidden means.

Jin Xiaokai held the shovel tightly in his hand, and there was a layer of reddish light on the surface of the shovel, which was exactly the flame elemental force that Jin Xiaokai cultivated!
There is no need to use much force at all, just a light shovel, and the stones will fall one after another without any hindrance.

Behind Jin Xiaokai, the excavated stones were almost piled up into a mountain—on top of the original excavation by Mr. Mi Zhu, Jin Xiaokai had already dug down about a dozen meters!Calculated, it is almost four or five stories high.

Jin Xiaokai has already dug through several houses and handed over all the things he found to Mr. Mi Zhu.Almost everything that can be found in these rooms is very strange and has no obvious purpose.But there is one thing that Jin Xiaokai can see, that is, the human beings living here are extremely technologically advanced, although there are some differences from modern technology, but you can still see the general idea.

All the things found, it is impossible to see whether they are made of metal or other things, but after a long time, they still maintain a fairly good shape, and some of them even look very good on the surface. It's new and maintains a metallic sheen that feels quite incredible.

During these days of excavation, Jin Xiaokai also discovered some very strange things - he actually saw something similar to a devouring core on some of the excavated objects!Because it has been buried underground for too long, those things that look like devouring cores have turned into fossils.

Jin Xiaokai also quietly studied this kind of thing in his spare time, and found that there are countless small strips extending from the object similar to the phagocytic core, and connected to other objects through it, which seems to have become a kind of core. s things.

For example, Jin Xiaokai discovered a metal disc-like thing, the size of a basketball, golden in color, but it was not made of gold, but an unknown extremely light substance.Inlaid in the center of the disc is a fossilized devouring core-like thing, and the devouring core protrudes from the main body with hundreds of filaments, connecting to the entire disc.

The reason why Jin Xiaokai felt that those things were devouring cores was because he occasionally felt a faint fluctuation from above.Obviously, after an unknown number of years, even the phagocytic nucleus has become a fossil, but still has a certain "activity" left!
However, even the devouring core has become a fossil, and the other metal objects combined together have no tendency to decay and aging. This has to make people admire the magic of human technology in the era of ruins.

Jin Xiaokai faintly felt that what he was digging should be a civilized society with a large number of devourers and an extremely developed research and utilization of devouring cores.

Thinking that such a civilization would disappear in the long river of history, Jin Xiaokai felt very incredible.

But on the other hand, Jin Xiaokai also had a feeling of admiration for Mi Zhugong. Although this old guy doesn't look very good, and his personality is a bit weird, but he can persist in excavating and researching here alone. For several years, this kind of perseverance is really admirable.

During the time when Jin Xiaokai was digging hard, the fire tooth of the devouring core consciousness in his body seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again, and never came out to talk to Jin Xiaokai, and never responded to his call.For this "uncertain whereabouts" guy, Jin Xiaokai has nothing to do. He originally wanted to ask him about his discovery, but now it seems that he can only wait until he wakes up.

However, Jin Xiaokai didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that there seemed to be some subtle changes in the phagocytic nucleus in his body.This change is difficult to explain in words, and it does not appear to have any effect.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

This monotonous day has lasted for nearly a month.

The current Jin Xiaokai is quite different from the one he was a month ago. If you grab an acquaintance, you may not be able to recognize the current Jin Xiaokai.Long hours of physical labor actually made his body thinner, and to Jin Xiaokai's surprise, the muscles on his body became more and stronger, and even appeared on his lower abdomen. A few chunks of angular muscle!
This was almost completely unimaginable before, but I never imagined that I could do it in just one month here.

Originally, Jin Xiaokai still had some resentment towards Mi Zhugong, but after seeing his own changes, Jin Xiaokai felt a little grateful instead.

"It's not bad, just treat it as fitness." These are Jin Xiaokai's frequent self-comforting words recently.

In addition to the physical changes, Jin Xiaokai's own energy also increased significantly.This is mainly because he usually maintains a digging state of exertion, so his strength has naturally improved without knowing it.Jin Xiaokai once took a look at himself in the mirror, and the power value in his right eye has reached an astonishing [-]!
This number, Jin Xiaokai usually dare not even think about it.Although the value is much lower than that of Mi Zhugong, it is already much stronger than the average Devourer.What he lacks now is just the training of experience and skills.

The sound of the shovel digging echoed in the corridor, after working for a while, Jin Xiaokai raised his body, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and took back the energy on the shovel.

"Huh, I'm exhausted, take a break." Looking back at the results I discovered, it's really amazing.Even Jin Xiaokai himself didn't expect that he had dug up so many things in just one month.

Under the ground of the entire stone pagoda, intricate corridors are distributed like the roots of ten-thousand-year-old trees, some of which were dug by Mr. Mi Zhu before, and some of which were made by Jin Xiaokai.

Those ancient relic buildings go deep into the ground, no matter how deep Jin Xiaokai digs down, he can find the relic buildings continuously, which makes Jin Xiaokai somewhat doubt whether there is a magnificent city buried in the underground!

The place where he is now is a stone room that has been hollowed out, and all the weird looking things inside have been handed over to Mi Zhugong, and the rest are some irrelevant garbage.After digging for these days, it's not that Jin Xiaokai didn't think about hiding some good things, but it's a pity that the things he found were all dilapidated, or even incomplete, which made Jin Xiaokai extremely disappointed.

Jin Xiaokai, who was resting with a shovel, started to think, and he thought of Mi Zhugong's laboratory!There seem to be a lot of good things in there, some of which are found in the ruins that Mi Zhugong has restored, and I must secretly take them out to appreciate when I have a chance in the future.

"It's a pity, that old fellow Mi Zhugong is just too wary, otherwise... alas." When Jin Xiaokai was lamenting, suddenly there was a light "click" from the corner of the stone room!
Jin Xiaokai was taken aback, if he hadn't dug, the tunnel would have been extremely silent, there would never be any sound!And most people would not come to this place - Cheng Xue and Wei Xiaoyu didn't have time, and Mi Zhugong was too lazy to come here.Now that he suddenly heard a strange sound in this gloomy place, even if Jin Xiaokai was the devourer, he would inevitably be a little flustered.

The sound continued to ring in the corner, and soon several stones rolled out, and then a deep cave appeared in that position!

Jin Xiaokai was very nervous, he didn't know what would come out of the cave, but seeing that thing could actually make holes in the stone wall, this kind of strength made people have to have some bad guesses.Jin Xiaokai held the shovel tightly with both hands, and that layer of red origin force shrouded the surface of the shovel again.

"Squeak!" With a low cry, a strange creature crawled out of the cave.That thing was the size of a wild dog, with the head of a mouse and the body of a bird, and its skin was covered with scales—it turned out to be the soldier-scale rat mentioned by Mr. Mi Zhu!
"Wow? Why did this kind of thing appear here? Could it be the one that Cheng Xue and the others were guarding escaped?" However, Jin Xiaokai quickly overturned his guess, because this one was bigger in size. The one guarded by Cheng Xue and the others was only a foot long.

The Bingscale Rat is obviously a highly aggressive mutant creature. When it found a human being in front of it, its eyes turned red immediately, and it rushed up with a low roar!
