Jiang Li saw a very interesting term in the appraisal technique.
Origin Blood Ancient Leech, this weird black worm, must have a big problem.
"Let's go!"
Behind him, Gu Heizhuanghou shouted and grabbed the unresponsive Jian Mo. He mobilized his spiritual energy and jumped on the black stalagmites to escape and rushed towards the center of the island.
This guy actually took this cheap sister with him when he was running for his life, and even took the initiative to remind others, which surprised Jiang Li.
But Jiang Li had no intention of escaping with him.
The spiritual light from his right hand burst out, turned into a wooden sword and fell into his hand. He slashed horizontally and instantly beheaded the corpse of the ancient black bull that was charging towards him in a strange posture.
"Twenty times the spiritual energy consumption? It's really scary."
Simply transforming a wooden sword would consume enough power to transform a twenty-meter-tall wooden man in the outside world.
If I were to come here as an ordinary golden elixir, I'm afraid it would have been drained out after only three times.
Um?
But the big bull whose head was chopped off in front did not fall to the ground.
A group of black tentacles composed of hundreds of ancient leeches of origin blood spurted out from his neck and grabbed the head flying in the air.
He actually pulled his head back just like that and put it back on his neck. After moving it, it was just the same as before.
At this time, more and more black worms emerged from the rocky ground.
Including the brother and sister, as well as all the other pirates, all had lost the breath of life and stopped struggling.
Then more and more ancient leeches of source blood penetrated into their bodies, making them all stand up again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After being controlled by the black insects, it seemed that the potential of their bodies was stimulated to the limit, causing these mortals' muscles to swell one by one, their arms to be as thick as thighs, and then they rushed towards Jiang Li together.
"It's really interesting. It can still exert such power without using aura."
A burst of blue-black sword light flashed, and all the controlled corpses were chopped into more than twenty pieces.
But just like before, such an attack still couldn't kill them.
Under the pull of the black worm, the broken body was glued back together again and continued to rush towards Jiang Li.
In this situation of losing spiritual energy at any time, it is indeed quite troublesome to face such an opponent who is not easy to kill.
It's no wonder that Gu Heizhuohou avoided them and ran away without a fight.
"But bugs are bugs."
Jiang Li slapped the ground, and with the amount of spiritual energy that could be used to cast the Jiuyou Tree Realm once, he summoned vines that were about the thickness of chopsticks, and tied up all these guys.
"No matter what you are, you probably don't like this."
Jiang Li's aura changed, and the power of Jiuyou Shura had been transformed into blood-colored chaotic energy.
A bloody light group shot into one of the controlled corpses.
The body, which was still struggling, suddenly stopped.
Then the next moment, as if fleeing for his life, a large amount of ancient leeches of source blood spurted out from his body, trying to get back underground and escape.
But how could Jiang Li let them go?
He took out a crystal clear bottle.
Putting his right hand on the bottom of the bottle, a suction force immediately emerged from the mouth of the bottle and sucked in all the escaping black worms.
Without a parasitic body, these worms are quite weak and cannot break through the constraints of the crystal bottle.
I can only crawl around and crawl around in vain.
Then Jiang Li repeated his old tricks and forced out all the ancient leeches from the remaining corpses one by one.
Soon, only the remains of broken limbs were left on the ground.
"Sure enough, the purpose of these worms' existence is to absorb the blood of the descendants of the dragon head of Hualong Island."
Jiang Li looked at the more than twenty crystal bottles placed on the ground.
Among them, three worms in crystal bottles were emitting a faint red light.
And these three worms in the crystal bottle were forced out of the ancient black bull and the twins.
Moreover, these red leeches appear to be more active than other black worms.
Judging from their appearance, they seem to want to return to a certain place.
Fortunately, Jiang Li is free now and can definitely give them a ride.
He rummaged through the coffin and found a compass, which was the equipment given to him by the sect when he was learning rune formations.
It's a pity that Jiang Li doesn't need to calculate the ground veins at all, he can just look at them with his eyes.
This compass has not been used once in his hands.
He reached out and pulled out the pointer, picked out a red ancient leech from the bottle, and placed it on the compass.
The worm twisted a few times and immediately crawled in one direction. However, after being blocked by the edge of the compass and finding it unable to move forward, it began to crawl erratically on the compass again.
Are you lost?
No, after observing carefully for a while, he discovered that this worm was probably trying to get into the ground.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Li stomped on the ground, and a big hole immediately appeared on the hard rock ground.
There was air convection in the large hole that was opened, and there was a tunnel hidden in the rock formations under his feet.
There are also a large number of such worms dormant in the tunnels.
Jiang Li directly moved out three large wine vats that were as tall as one person, pointed the mouth of the vat at the hole in the ground, and followed the same pattern, sucking up all the worms inside three times in a row before jumping into it.
After entering the underground insect tunnel, the red origin-blood ancient leeches that were crawling everywhere immediately became much quieter. They only climbed in one direction on the compass.
"Is it in this direction?"
Jiang Li, an expert in art, was brave and walked quickly along the underground tunnel under the guidance of the worm.
In identification techniques, the habit of this worm is "split body feeding".
That is, the mother divides into offspring, which go out to hunt for food and then return to support the mother.
Therefore, this worm has strong anti-nest properties, but it should be similar to insects such as ants. Anti-nest relies on the recognition of a special pheromone.
It is impossible to accurately specify the direction on the surface. Only by returning to the underground tunnel can we successfully return to the nest.
Jiang Li really wants to see what will happen after these ancient leeches absorb the blood and go back. That may be the purpose of Gu Heitian Chou, the dragon head of Hualong Island.
While capturing the Origin Blood Ancient Leech, move forward.
Jiang Li soon discovered that these underground tunnels were not entirely made of worms.
Its main body should be an artificial relic. In some relatively wide sections of road, regular traces of artificial excavation can be clearly seen.
However, due to the constant gnawing of these worms, this ruins has been destroyed beyond recognition.
The more intricate insect passages have also turned the underground into a complex and disorderly underground maze.
It will definitely take a lot of time to fully explore such a complex underground maze.
But the monks cannot stay in this space for long. I believe that even the Dragon Head of Hualong Island cannot visit every corner of this ruins.
Following the guidance of the red ancient leech, Jiang Li saw a stone wall that had been tempered by time but was still intact after walking for a long time.
There is an ancient text engraved on it.
Jiang Li couldn't hide the joy on his face. He had seen these words in the secret realm of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty.
Gu Zing
This place is related to the Human Emperor, and it is most likely the Xuanyuan Tomb!
Touching the ancient words on the wall, a force in Jiang Li's body was automatically mobilized.
This feeling was very strange, and he knew what he should do.
He cut his palm open and pressed his bloody palm against the stone wall.
The blood containing the human emperor's Qi and blood and pure dragon's blood was contaminated.
Suddenly the words carved on the stone wall seemed to come alive.
They are clearly words carved on stone, but they can move one by one and automatically climb up Jiang Li's skin.
An entire wall of words covered Jiang Li's entire body. If these words hadn't disappeared later, Jiang Li would have been embarrassed to see anyone.
After the large number of ancient words disappeared from his skin, they poured directly into Jiang Li's sea of consciousness.
He immediately sat down cross-legged and sorted out the information that would feel heavy even to him now.
"Qi Condensation Technique"
What is described in those texts is such a Dharma.
Its function is also very simple, which is to make the energy in the body solidify and not disperse.
Enhancing the power is secondary, the most important thing is to use it to resist the loss of spiritual energy caused by the sudden drop in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
From those words, Jiang Li could feel the efforts and struggles of those ancient powers before the coming of the Age of Ending Dharma.
This Qi Condensation Technique should have been created urgently by the Human Emperor back then and then passed on to the human monks to allow them to live as long as possible.
Exhale slowly.
At this time, a large number of words on the wall in front of him had disappeared, and instead a portal and another sentence appeared in front of him.
"After completing the Qi Condensation Technique, you can enter."
Jiang Li smiled and gave it while testing.
Compared with other deceptive ruins that are full of plots and traps, the Human Emperor's inheritance place is still as considerate as ever.
This is the responsibility and care that the emperor of the human race has for his descendants.
Jiang Li heartily accepted the care of his ancestors.
Close your eyes again and silently try to practice this Qi Condensation Technique.
Isn't this current environment, where spiritual energy is constantly being lost, the best environment for practicing the art of condensing energy?
....
On the ground, Gu Heizhuanghou, who had quickly crossed more than half the distance by consuming his spiritual energy, finally couldn't hold on any longer. His feet gave way and he fell to the ground with Jian Mo.
The closer you are to the center of the island, the faster the spiritual energy dissipates.
Now the last spiritual stone in my hand has turned into powder, and I was flying and jumping so far just now.
He could feel that his Yuanying was wrinkled and starting to shrink.
The fate of a shattered Nascent Soul is much more serious than a broken Void Core. It is basically death.
"You do have a good subordinate who is actually willing to block those bugs for us."
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he looked back again and found that Jiang Li didn't follow him, so he thought of a reason.
I couldn't help but look at this cheap girl with some surprise.
It's hard to imagine how a "Nascent Soul Monk" could do this for a mortal.
"Mr. Li Jiang is not my subordinate, he is my benefactor!"
Hearing Gu Heizhuang's words, Jian Mo couldn't help but blush, and two lines of tears flowed down from her eyes.
Growing up, apart from her mother, only Jiang Li recognized her and was the best to her.
First, he rescued "Mr. Li Jiang" from the sea and used black pearls to heal his injuries, which impressed this powerful monk.
However, "Mr. Li Jiang" first risked his life to rescue him on the boat, regardless of serious injuries.
In order to help her and her mother, not only did she come to Hualong Island in Longtan Tiger's Den even though her injuries were not healed, but now she also protects her from danger.
They had only known each other for a few days, but she felt that they had already had a life-changing friendship.
Mr. Li Jiang's kindness completely captured her helpless heart.
For the rest of her life, Jian Mo would not hesitate even if she agreed to be a slave, not to mention committing herself to him.
"Don't be stunned. He may not be dead yet. If you can pass the trial in time and become the young master of Hualong Island, you can bring someone to rescue him."
"Now, as I said, use these thorns to seal all the acupoints on my body!"
When Jian Mo's eyes were filled with tears, Gu Heizhuanghou found a thorn beside him.
After pulling off the long thorns on it, I gave it to this cheap girl.
"Mr. Li Jiang! You must wait for me! I will definitely come back to save you!"
Wiping away her tears, Jian Mo, who had been strong since she was a child and had become the master early in her life, grabbed the thorns and thorns, pointed them at the position Zhuo Hou told her, and plunged them into the body of the young master in trouble.
"Hiss! You missed the mark!"
Ancient black and thick: (*????)
After sealing the acupoint with some unprofessional thorns, Gu Heizhuanghou continued to walk towards the center of the island with Jian Mo's support.
The closer you are to the center, the faster the loss of spiritual energy will be. As time goes by, Young Master Zhuohou will soon lose all his power and be on the verge of death.
He knew very clearly that he could not reach Hualong Pond by his own strength.
Only Gu Heizhuanghou would choose to take a mortal like Jian Mo with him. Only a mortal who is not affected here can possibly lead him to the end.
....
One hour, two hours, three hours.
In an underground tunnel, a strong wind was blowing.
Because somewhere in the tunnel, there is a figure sitting cross-legged on the ground. He is like an endless spring of spiritual energy, spewing out a large amount of spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy gushes out so fast that a ball of spiritual energy flames that is more than one foot high can be seen on his body.
As Jiang Li held the seal in his hand, the arrogance on his body sometimes spiraled, sometimes shrank, and sometimes erupted into an even more exaggerated form.
Ordinary monks who sprayed spiritual energy like this would have died countless times, but Jiang Li's expression did not change at all from the beginning to the end.
After a total of one hundred and eight seals, Jiang Li's Dragon Pearl Golden Pill suddenly shook and emitted a force, causing the spiritual energy around him to gather and solidify.
The spiritual energy and flames around Jiang Li also began to shrink and slowly returned to his body.
[The Qi Condensation Technique is successfully performed, and the Qi Condensation Body acts on itself.]
[Qi Condensation Body: Condensed spiritual energy, resists 80% of the scattered spirit effect, increases the power of spiritual energy by 30%, and lasts for 3 seconds] (-)
Jiang Li's face lit up with joy, it's done!
Although it took him three hours to successfully cast the Qi Condensation Technique for the first time.
Although this time of condensation can only last three seconds, and it is extremely unstable. If you are distracted or moved for a moment, it will immediately return to its original shape, which is far from being considered a master.
But for him, it was enough.
Short press the plus button once, then press and hold for five seconds.
The state of this [solidified aggregate] was solidified on his body.
I stood up and felt it, and sure enough, although the spiritual energy in my body was still losing, the speed had slowed down a lot, only about 20% of the original amount.
It is impossible to completely prevent the dissipation of spiritual energy. If it could be done, the power of the immortals and Buddhas in ancient times would not disappear without a trace.
Jiang Li pushed forward, and the stone door made a heavy friction sound, revealing the passage behind it.
