Fast Forward To three thousand and seventy seven

Xu Jiu himself has always had a huge weakness.

Crystal of sage!

Yes, this crystal stone gives Xu Jiu a new life and gives him the ability of terror.

But it is precisely the core that supports Xu Jiu, but it also brings him the most fatal defect.

Unlike ordinary people who can recover their strength through rest when they are tired, Xu Jiu can fight all the time as long as he still has crystal energy.

This is certainly an extremely powerful ability.

But what follows is that as long as the energy is exhausted, Xu Jiu will collapse immediately, and there is no possibility of turning around.

This is like an apostle like Zheng Yi. When he is on the verge of death, he may break out at all costs and fight for a way to survive. It is absolutely impossible to be Xu Jiu, because after he breaks out completely, whether he can defeat the enemy or not, he is bound to die!

Because of this, Xu Jiu should keep anything that may involve the crystal of sages secret. He does not allow anyone to detect his weakness.

To put it bluntly, it seems that after the end of the first World War in the Ming Temple, Xu Jiu seemed to show his strong strength. In fact, after he left the kingdom of God, he only released the energy of several shock steps. Any GUI Zang level apostle would fight with him for more than half an hour, and he would collapse immediately!

If you let others know the secret, it's not easy to make corresponding targeted plans.

But the way this Sage crystal obtains energy is harsh to some extent.

It's not difficult to defeat the alienated animals and capture their energy. The key is that Xu Jiu can't guarantee that he can find the alienated animals at any time!

The wasteland, gathering point and even Wusu city can't provide Xu Jiu with enough crystal energy, which forces him to spend some time in the special area every time he experiences a big war.

It's just two times at a time. It's the same every time. It's hard to guarantee that no one will be suspicious.

Similarly, Xu Jiu spared no effort to pursue the crystal fragments in order to expand the upper capacity limit of the sage's crystal as much as possible, so as not to find a way to "charge" after a game.

However, to Xu Jiu's surprise, he saw another possibility in the accidentally discovered bird and beast.

When Xu Jiu reached out to touch the crystallized blood vessels around the hollowed out heart, these white lenses covering the flesh and bones were directly transformed into energy into Xu Jiu's body.

Although the added spar energy is not much, it undoubtedly means that there is not only one form of spar energy. They can be solidified and preserved!

There is no doubt about the importance of this discovery to Xu Jiu.

If we can find out the reason for this phenomenon, we can't say that he can make portable energy spar in the future.

In this way, no matter how difficult the battle is, Xu Jiu will have enough confidence to win!

Monsters can recover as long as they use the supplement of evil energy, and he will not die on the premise that the crystal of sage has constant energy supplement!

Not only that, by discovering the crystal energy fragments in the bird and beast, Xu Jiu quickly realized that the exploration mission he had promised to participate in was probably the most correct choice in recent time.

This change in the blood vessels around the extraordinary organs in the bird and beast is definitely not accidental, but driven by some external factors. It seems that the crystallization of the heart around them is more serious, and may have become a moving spar energy supplement.

The reason for this change is definitely related to the crystal of sage.

As soon as she read this, Xu Jiu's mind inevitably became hot.

Some time ago, only Xu Jiu knew how much effort he had made to find other spar fragments. Now he unexpectedly found a clue here. It was really unintentional to insert willows into the shade!

"Xu Jiu, did you find anything?"

Zheng Yi and others nearby saw that there was no sound after Xu Jiu jumped into the body. They thought the situation was serious and couldn't help asking loudly.

Quickly suck up the crystals in the corpse. Xu Jiu returns to the team again. He can't say anything about the crystalline blood vessels. He can only change the topic and focus on other discoveries,

"The guy who killed the bird and beast was not for its flesh and blood, but for its extraordinary organs!"

"Weird?"

"I'm not sure. The evil energy here is too strong to be identified through the wound. In short, you have to be careful. Judging from the scale of the wound, the guy who hunts birds and animals is not big... I mean, compared with the size of birds and animals, it's not big, it's extremely lethal, and it should act in groups."

Recalling the shape of the wound just seen, Xu Jiu gave the answer.

"When you check the birds and animals, we have investigated the surrounding conditions and found no traces of other animals. It is reasonable to say that in this environment, if there are large-scale herds passing by, they will certainly leave traces, which means that nine times out of ten they come from heaven. The problem is that Zongze takes off at the first time after hearing the scream. If it is a flying herds attack, he has no reason not to see it."

Zheng Yi pressed hard on the soles of her feet, immediately left footprints on the rain soaked ground, immediately pointed to the sky, shook her head and said,

"Unless they are invisible, it is impossible to complete the transfer of anything in just a few seconds."

"Stealth..."

Xu Jiu repeated a sentence and looked at Zheng Yi.

The two men looked at each other and immediately shouted,

"Be careful around!"

There was no sign of leaving on the ground, and there were no herds in the sky.

Unless they can be invisible, there is only one possibility left. They are still hidden nearby!

Almost at the same time that they made a sound to remind, several dark, rough and creepy monsters suddenly jumped out of the nearby branches.

They have a whale like smooth and oily skin, a pair of annoying sharp corners bend inward. Their wings are like bats, but they can't hear the sound of wings. Their claws are ugly, narrow and inward curved, suitable for grasping objects. Behind them, they drag a tail with barbs and swing around.

Somehow, these monsters were clearly in the woods more than ten meters away. When the people on the scene searched the surrounding environment, they didn't notice it at all. Even when they came face to face, everyone's eyes were inevitably attracted by the big mouth with no organs but tusks.

"Die!"

Madeleine, who was originally on the side of the team, stepped forward and made several cuts with a knife.

The gray white blade cut open the rain curtain and rushed towards the group of monsters.

To everyone's surprise, these monsters, the size of adult bison, were extremely agile. In the face of the cutting attack of cicada molting apostles, their huge body simply dodged by shrinking and rolling, and did not make any sound in the process.

Yes, no matter whether they are flapping their wings or colliding with raindrops when they move, they have not made a sound at all, as if all sound waves were swallowed by their bodies.

Although Madeleine's attack failed to cause effective killing, it also made these monsters aware of the danger. After the latent attack failed, they flapped their wings and retreated quickly.

There is no doubt about their flying ability. One second they still rush forward, and the next they don't even have to turn back. Their huge body suddenly retreats to half the air and spreads everywhere, taking all the explorers who were ready for the attack by surprise.

At the moment, Xu Jiu's vision is to lock the monster in the middle, whose body is a circle larger than the surrounding peers. In the center of its trunk, there is a heart incompatible with its black and gray body, covered with a layer of white lens. Needless to say, a large number of veins are extended around, changing or strengthening the monster's body.

Plundering extraordinary organs is to strengthen themselves. It looks strange

Was the previous guess right?

Xu Jiu was surprised and didn't forcibly stop these monsters.

It's not that she didn't react, but she looked at it with more than a dozen pairs of eyes. If she beat down the monster directly, Xu Jiu will expose some of her secrets unless she plans to let all these people stay here.

Of course, he didn't intend to miss the opportunity to find out.

Noticing that Zheng Yi beside her was ready to fight, Xu Jiu immediately took a step forward and spread out the dark cyan wind wings behind her,

"Don't waste too much time here. You go to the valley and I'll deal with those monsters!"

As Xu Jiu dodges after the monster, Zheng Yi and others resolutely stop. Their trust in Xu Jiu's strength makes them quickly turn around and continue to move closer to the valley.

With a clear goal, Xu Jiu didn't take care of the other monsters who fled, and went straight to the most special individual.

More and more familiar with the control of air flow, he easily caught up with the guy with a heart attached to the center of his trunk.

First cut off its wings, and then the wind oppressed it to fall to the ground. Xu Jiu looked at the struggling monster and tied it firmly with the vine chain extended by the surrounding shrubs with the help of the power of giving spirit.

Frowning at the disgusting monster in front of him, his eyes focused on the crystal heart in front of his chest.

The heart has obviously lost its activity. It is covered with a thick gray and white lens. The vein Xu Jiugang just saw is not an imaginary blood vessel, but more like an energy transmission device.

Take out the tracing light and cut open the epidermis around the spar heart.

Xu Jiu found that the monster not only had biological bones and flesh, but also showed indigo, which was obviously the change brought by the extraordinary heart.

"It's not pure weird, but a heterogeneous species affected by evil energy... It's a hell to take the initiative to plunder crystalline extraordinary organs and put them on yourself."

With the knife back in its sheath, Xu Jiu raised his eyebrows and whispered to himself,

"How can they know that there is such a thing in the body of alienated animals, and where does the energy in the body of birds and animals come from?"

We should know that the original energy stored in the crystal of sages has never been the ordinary visible element energy, nor even the soul or life energy. Most of this special energy will have, but it is the difference between the stock size.

The problem is that birds and animals must have this crystal energy, but how to crystallize it is something Xu Jiu can't understand.

Racial gifts or external stimuli?

Obviously, this body alone can't get the right answer.

The confusion in her mind couldn't be completely solved. Xu Jiu didn't stay long. After receiving the crystal energy, she planned to return to the team again.

When he again moved to the mid air to look for Zheng Yi and his party, his eyes inadvertently swept the distant valley, but he saw that the monsters who had just fled scattered gathered together and flew towards the top of the valley.

That's obviously where their nest is.

Zheng Yi and his party didn't advance fast. Xu Jiu caught up and fell straight in front of the team.

Everyone was relieved to see Xu Jiu return. Although they knew that nothing could happen to the latter, in the current environment, Xu Jiu's existence has already become everyone's "reassurance".

In fact, when Xu Jiu landed, everyone's footsteps gathered together with him.

"Those we just met are not weird. They should be creatures mutated after being affected by evil energy. They can plunder the extraordinary organs of alienated animals and turn them into their own use."

As usual, Xu Jiu deliberately hides the crystalline thing. Xu Jiu focuses on the monster,

"Did you meet them the last time you crossed the valley?"

"No, the last time I came to this area, I met a lot of alienated animals, most of which were mutation level and many of which were invasion level. Although the battle was dangerous at that time, we were used to killing back and forth in the pile of alienated animals' bodies. Moreover, no matter what, there was a hunting king, which could be called smooth."

Xu is that the oppressive environment around her makes Zheng Yi a little unbearable. She simply opens the chatterbox to ease the tension in her heart. However, she still feels depressed,

"I can't imagine that it wasn't long before the head here became such a ghost."

"Hunting King... The dragon gate?"

This is the first time Xu Jiu heard Zheng Yi talk about him.

Every apostle in Longmen is the core figure of Wusu city. Ordinary people, let alone contact, don't even know his qualifications!

"Yes, he led the team last time, and one of the core figures of this trip is to try to bring him back to Wusu city."

The high-level Council of Wusu city obviously did not intend to give up the Longmen apostle. It had already told Zheng Yi privately that if there was a way to save people, it would do anything!

Xu Jiu was noncommittal about Zheng Yi's idea. Originally, he wanted to ask about the internal situation of the valley. Now it seems that it is also a white question. The recent evil erosion has long changed this area beyond recognition.

Attention returned to the journey in front of us. When the expedition went out about two kilometers further, it was not far from the valley.

But at this time, the ground trembled suddenly!

The fallen leaves and muddy water on the ground were scattered and splashed, and the surrounding trees were staggering.

Earthquake?

This emergency obviously exceeded the expectations of the expedition. Zheng Yi could only order a suspension of action and wait for the end of the earthquake.

Unexpectedly, the tremor amplitude of the ground not only did not weaken, but increased continuously. Finally, there was even a roar in the distance.

Xu Jiu thought the earthquake was too strange. He stayed on the ground for a while and broke off into the air.

Look in the direction of the roar.

The valley is collapsing!
