Lonely Immortal

Chapter 148 Darkness

Facing these big winged ants, Zhang Zhiwen was not very afraid. Although their number was quite alarming, after all, they were only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen directly threw out a large ball of fire. At the same time, , he also released the Fire Thunder Shield, and the powerful magic power instantly swallowed up these hundreds of large winged ants. These The big ants immediately let out a squeaking scream, and not long after, they all turned into fly ash. Sparks scattered in the cave. The bursts of burning smell mixed with the fishy smell made Zhang Zhiwen feel extremely sick, but he Still walking forward, the big ants in front that killed the casual cultivator just now quickly crawled towards Zhang Zhiwen.

Regarding this, Zhang Zhiwen also frowned slightly. It seemed that these big ants had very low IQs. Monsters in the wild would hardly be so stupid. How dare they come after seeing their companions being burned to death? When encountering this kind of situation in the wild, generally these ants will run away immediately, but the monsters here seem to be different from those outside, especially the dark red light that appears and disappears on the big ants, which seems to be a bit weird. These big ants have lost their minds. They are going crazy and attack everything they see.

However, the ending was the same as the previous group of giant ants. Zhang Zhiwen burned them completely with a fire, and a large number of sparks flew up in the aisle. Zhang Zhiwen walked through the confusing aisle and came to the spot where the casual cultivators were just now. But this casual cultivator is gone, and there is only a pool of foul-smelling yellow water on the ground. , this is probably the result of the big ants gnawing away all the bones. No wonder the place smells so fishy, ​​and I don’t know how many people died. The dead people turned into yellow water, soaked into the soil, and the soil turned into It turned yellowish brown, and as time passed and the soil dried, it became what it is now.

Obviously, the venom sprayed by these big ants is definitely very corrosive. It can directly corrode clothes and the like, but what about spiritual weapons? It seems difficult for spiritual weapons to be corroded by such things, right?

Sure enough, Zhang Zhiwen saw a long sword on the ground not far away. He walked over and picked up the long sword. This long sword was actually a low-level spiritual weapon. This thing was also valuable, even though it was a low-level weapon. , but it was no problem to sell it in exchange for a few hundred low-grade spiritual stones, so Zhang Zhiwen naturally kept it.

However, Zhang Zhiwen also discovered just now that as long as he used power beyond the third level of Qi Refining, the hidden light on his body seemed to disappear. At this moment, he restored the Ling Shi technique, and light appeared on his body again, illuminating the surroundings. Liang, thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen was a little hesitant, whether he should restrain the light on his body, and this light probably The rate is the spell restriction secretly placed by the portal. However, once the cultivation level is broken through, the restriction will be temporarily gone. It seems that this restriction is intentional, exposing the restricted casual cultivators to the beast tomb. But if it is restrained, With this spell restriction, the surrounding area immediately fell into darkness. Even Zhang Zhiwen could not see clearly what was going on around him.

Therefore, this spell restriction not only exposes casual cultivators, but also gives them some light to check their surroundings. So what is the purpose of this spell restriction? Rogue cultivators can ignite a small fireball, which can also illuminate the surrounding environment, right?

But to maintain even a small fireball spell requires spiritual energy, and even Zhang Zhiwen cannot maintain it forever. Although the maintenance time will be very long, it may even be able to barely maintain it for ten days and a half. But the spiritual power is consumed a lot. In such a dangerous place, it is necessary to maintain strong spiritual power at all times. Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen does not intend to take away this spell restriction for the time being. He will wait for the right time to to converge.

In this way, he continued to walk forward. Not long after, he finally saw a corpse for the first time, and it was the corpse of a monster. This corpse happened to be at a crossroads. This was also the first time Zhang Zhiwen came in. I saw the fork in the road for the first time. At this moment, the other forks seemed safe. It was quiet, and Zhang Zhiwen found that as long as there was no sound, those big ants didn't seem to appear, but those big ants didn't know where they came from. Maybe they came out of the cracks in the mud in the wall, but as long as there was no sound, these big ants didn't appear. Ants just don't seem to show up.

The reason why Zhang Zhiwen discovered the corpse of this monster beast was because the corpse of the monster beast also emitted a faint light. This light illuminated the surrounding area, so Zhang Zhiwen could see the situation clearly. However, Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry. He stood there and waited. After a while, until he was sure that there was no danger around him, he walked towards the monster's body step by step.

Not long after, Zhang Zhiwen came to the corpse of the monster and saw clearly that it was a monster. It was a wild boar-like monster with very low cultivation level, only at the second level of Qi Refining. It has actually been dead for some time, exudes a foul smell, and its fur is a bit rotten. It is estimated that the belly must be full of corrupt liquid. This kind of thing has no value in collecting. Another one is the second-level Qi Refining monster. Zhang Zhiwen also doesn’t like it, but he is very strange. Such a monster The animal carcass is lying here, why don't the big ants come to eat it? Do giant ants only eat living things?

However, Zhang Zhiwen didn't know much about this and was just guessing. Therefore, he planned to keep walking forward and take a look. But now this was a crossroads. Which way did Zhang Zhiwen choose to go?

Zhang Zhiwen looked at it and found that it was almost the same anyway, so he chose a side road at random, and continued walking forward. This time, not long after he left, he saw the body of another monster, but this monster The body was not at the crossroads, but in the aisle, Zhang Zhiwen stepped forward and found that this was a monster that looked like a wild deer. Its cultivation level was only at the first level of Qi Refining. This thing had no value at all, and it was extremely corrupt and seeped out. The yellow water has long been pooled on the ground, and the stench is extremely bad.

Seeing the corpse of the dead wild deer monster, Zhang Zhiwen felt that he seemed to have gone in the wrong direction. Just at the intersection, he saw the corpse of the wild boar monster. It was still at the second level of Qi Refining, but here, it was just I found the corpse of a wild deer monster at the first level of Qi Refining. This seems to be getting more and more rubbish. If this is the land of beast graves, then I must have encountered corpses of higher-level monsters as we go forward. This It should be very normal logic.

However, Zhang Zhiwen was not sure. He wanted to try to see if the situation was what he had guessed. So, he continued to walk forward. Sure enough, not long after, he saw a pile of corpses. This pile of corpses were all rabbit monsters. , this hare monster seems to be just a little bigger than an ordinary hare, and its cultivation level has barely reached the first level of Qi refining, but has barely reached the level of Qi refining. Moreover, it is the most severely corrupted, most of it is rotten, and the stench fills the sky. It can be smelled from far away.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen has basically determined that the correct direction of the Beast Tomb should be that the farther forward, the higher the level of the monster corpses encountered, and the lower the degree of corruption, then there is something here that even Zhang Zhiwen finds a bit scary. The question is, will we encounter a living high-level monster at the end? If you encounter that kind of monster, wouldn't you die without a burial place? Moreover, Zhang Zhiwen even guessed that high-level monsters seemed to be able to restrain the spell restrictions here, right? Especially after reaching the third level of Qi Refining, isn't that what the big ant is like? When I rushed over, there was no light visible.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen felt that the place of the Beast Tomb was more dangerous than he imagined, and in this danger, there were countless high-level monks who had restrained their cultivation like him. In this way, this place It is simply an extremely dangerous place. No wonder the scholar refuses to come in even if he is alive or dead.

Since it was so dangerous, Zhang Zhiwen naturally didn't have to take the risk. He couldn't afford it. So, he planned to just stop here. After all, wasn't there a limit to the time he could stay in this place? When the time comes, will there be a portal appearing by then?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen felt that this method was good. He even walked in the opposite direction, because there was definitely no danger in the opposite direction. Here were just low-level goods like hares. Then go in the opposite direction, not towards the core of the Beast Tomb. If you go there, you will definitely not encounter any high-level monsters.

But he didn't go very far when he stopped again because he found human bones on the ground. This was the first time he discovered it. He was very surprised. He walked over, checked and found this The skeleton must have been dead for some time. The skeleton has turned white, and there is no stench at all. But why do these skeletons appear in this place?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen knelt down to look at it. He was quite shocked when he saw it, because there were two skeletons here, and one of them seemed to have broken arms and legs, and even the sternum and ribs were broken. He picked up the bones and looked at them carefully. , there were obvious bite marks on it. At first glance, the bite marks were made by people, not by some animals. At this moment, Zhang Zhiwen felt horrified. Could this be human cannibalism? But why is this happening?

Zhang Zhiwen frowned and stared at the two skeletons on the ground. It was obvious that there were originally two casual cultivators here. I don’t know what the situation was because of their cultivation. But they were originally alive, but they seemed to have turned into cannibals. The reason for this situation is probably the result of not having anything to eat, right? Why is there nothing to eat? Is it the reason why I am trapped here?

Zhang Zhiwen had to look around. It was still a corridor, and it was transparent from front to back. But suddenly, he discovered that there were traces of excavation on one side of the wall. Although the traces were not obvious, they were still visible. , therefore, Zhang Zhiwen left He went over and touched the digging marks on it. It was very hard. Zhang Zhiwen dug hard and the soil just fell away. Then a magical scene appeared, that is, the soil on the wall started to squirm rapidly, and then quickly has been restored to its original state!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but take a few steps back in shock. What on earth is this? Is this still some kind of soil? Why does it feel like there is life?
