Having stayed in Netherworld Mountain for half a month, Chen Xiu no longer wants to stay any longer. In the past half month, in addition to killing some underworld beasts, he also hunted some underworld beasts.
The accumulated Mingzhu can be consumed for a period of time.
Returning to his rough residence in Asahi City, Chen Xiu took out all the underworld beads he had accumulated during this period from his storage bag, and in the blink of an eye, the table turned into a dark mess.
Even the crystal clear corpse was taken out by him.
The Nine Transformations Golden Cicada in the dantian suddenly became restless and made a buzzing sound, as if it couldn't wait any longer.
At this moment, Chen Xiu released the Nine-Transformation Golden Cicada. Suddenly, the Nine-Transformation Golden Cicada's body became larger, its wings spread out, covering the table area, and its eyes stared at the pile of underworld beads, showing an extremely hungry look.
"Eat!"
It swooped over, bit off a Hades bead, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
On its body, a faint purple light flickered, getting stronger and stronger, and its aura became stronger and stronger.
Shen Xiu stood aside quietly without stopping.
After a while, it stopped eating after swallowing the most energy-rich ones.
Then he stayed on the table, with the aura floating in his body refining the essence contained in the underworld bead.
When Chen Xiu saw this, he knew that the Nine-Transformation Golden Cicada needed to absorb energy and slowly grow and transform before it could truly possess terrifying combat power.
Therefore, Shen Xiu ignored it and allowed it to devour and refine it, one by one.
Anyway, Shen Xiu is not afraid that it will swallow too many underworld beads and burst himself.
Because this kind of thing is just nourishment for the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada.
Once it reaches saturation, it will automatically transform.
Shen Xiu waited patiently in the room. As time passed, the dark energy in the room gradually became thinner, and the golden light in Jin Chan's body became brighter and brighter.
This time, it absorbed more evil energy than before and was purer, and the energy contained in the golden light became stronger and stronger.
Click!
There was a sudden, crisp sound.
A golden thread suddenly appeared on the surface of the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada's body.
This golden thread spread quickly, like a spider web.
Immediately afterwards, the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada's abdomen swelled, as if it was ten months pregnant and looked bloated.
At the same time, countless golden threads came out and directly wrapped the corpse on the ground, swallowing it like a bottomless pit.
With such a majestic energy replenishment, the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada finally ushered in a huge transformation.
Wow~~~~
The nine golden threads, like living creatures, are intertwined and fused with each other, eventually forming a round ball.
This round ball keeps squirming and rotating, and you can faintly hear bursts of clear heartbeats inside.
"Dong dong dong..."
The heart beats violently, like beating a drum.
Along with the violent beating of the heart, strange lines appeared on the surface of the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada's body, as if they were some kind of mysterious and simple words or symbols.
These lines cover the whole body of the golden cicada, making it look like cast gold, shining, dazzling and beautiful.
Rumble~~
The size of the Nine-Transformation Golden Cicada shrank sharply, and finally returned to its original shape. A small golden silkworm the size of a palm appeared in front of Shen Xiu.
There are many mysterious patterns on its back shell.
Especially the extra pair of wings, turning it into a four-winged golden cicada.
I saw a hazy purple-gold light emitting from the wings.
These purple-gold rays of light seem to be spiritual, flying around and constantly changing in various postures.
"The Nine Transformations Golden Cicada, the transformation is complete!"
Chen Xiu looked at the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada with a look of satisfaction on his face. This was what he had gained from his recent stay in Asahi City.
As the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada transformed, his body also changed, and a tyrannical aura rose into the sky.
The bones of his body were crackling, the muscles were bulging, the fascia was twisted, the surface of the skin had a faint metallic sheen, the veins on his arms were like horned dragons, and the blood was flowing, roaring in the body.
In an instant, the strength of his body more than doubled, and he even had the feeling that if he wanted to, he could shatter the void with every move he made, although this was an instant illusion after his cultivation level was improved.
"My body is so powerful now that I can resist even the attacks of the Nine Realm experts. Although I cannot escape unscathed, it is by no means the same as before. If I encounter any dangerous situation, at least I will not be able to save my life. Problem."
Shen Xiu calculated silently.
Now, he is confident that even if he does not use the golden cicada's innate ability to escape from the shell, he can still be on par with the black-armored general.
"Huh?"
Shen Xiu suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Because, he suddenly received a prompt from the property panel.
[Clone: Nine Transformations Golden Cicada (six transformations, satiety 8.6%)]
[Increase talent: Dutian Witch Lord]
[Witch Master Dutian: As long as you are on the earth, you can borrow the power of the mountains, the power of the rivers and the sea, and connect with the endless energy of the earth, so that your energy is endless, and you can also discern the treasures found in the aura.]
These innate skills make up for his shortcomings of being unable to succeed and cannot last long, and can provide a steady stream of vitality.
This greatly increased his combat effectiveness.
"As expected of Master Dutian, this ability suits me very well."
Shen Xiu was secretly happy.
This is one of the talents he most wants to possess.
With this innate skill, Chen Xiu is truly qualified to directly cross the border and kill.
But aside from that, the taste of the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada has become more and more popular, and the demand is also getting bigger and bigger. Shen Xiu must obtain energy beads and the like, which are of higher and higher levels.
Otherwise, it will have no effect.
The previous fifth- and sixth-level Hades Beast Beads now provide very little satiety.
Except for eating some sixth-order and seventh-order underworld beads, the remaining low-level ones have no effect.
Therefore, Shen Xiu is planning to go to Netherworld Mountain again, so he won’t waste time on the fifth- and sixth-level Netherworld beasts and capture the Netherworld General.
This is a long and boring process, and Shen Xiu is not in a hurry.
"Now that the Nine Transformations Golden Cicada has completed its transformation, let's go to Netherworld Mountain to try out our talent."
"I don't know how many hell beads I can hunt this time. I hope there won't be too many, otherwise I won't be able to afford them."
"This time, I will definitely be able to break through the Nine Realms."
Shen Xiu took a deep breath.
There was a determined light in his eyes.
Whoosh~~~
Shen Xiu spread out his body and flew towards the distance.
This Netherworld Mountain is not far from Asahi City.
He arrived half a day later.
Netherworld Mountain is still desolate, with sparse trees and jagged rocks.
The mountains are rolling, the wind is howling, ghosts are crying and wolves are howling, which is heart-stopping.
Chen Xiu stood in the distance and observed for a while, and found that the entire mountain range seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious fog, which was impossible to see through. Only occasionally some black shadows floated past, making it difficult to see clearly.
There have been some changes from the previous situation
First of all, the surrounding weeds are relatively lush, and there are vague remains of some corpses. Some bones are shriveled, while others are extremely fresh.
In addition, Shen Xiu saw many footprints nearby.
"Hey, someone seems to have died here, and it looks like they were human beings."
Shen Xiu was surprised: "Could it be said that there has been a battle for the Mingzhu here before? It's a pity that I wasn't there at the time, otherwise, I could have gained some benefits."
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt relieved.
This Netherworld Mountain is a place to spawn monsters.
Any adventurer who enters this place to explore may fall into it if he is not strong enough.
Moreover, there are many underworld beasts in Netherworld Mountain.
Some underworld beasts are even terrifying beings comparable to those in the Nine Realms.
Even if you are a master, you are still at risk of falling.
Because there are still unknown places in Netherworld Mountain.
Seeing this, Chen Xiu decisively understood the innate skills of Witch Master Dutian, and in the blink of an eye he felt that he had established some kind of connection with the earth under his feet
Buzz!
In an instant, Shen Xiu seemed to become lighter, as if he were walking on flat ground.
Take one step and you will feel like you are so far away.
"This is the innate magical power of Lord Dutian. He can control the mountains and rivers and communicate with the power of the earth. However, if you don't know how to use it, you can only use part of it."
Shen Xiu understood clearly in his heart.
He is currently not familiar with the abilities of Witch Lord Dutian. He just got a feel for it, then gathered his thoughts and continued walking towards the interior of Netherworld Mountain.
This mountain range is extremely huge and stretches for countless kilometers.
Chen Xiu saw the corpses of many underworld beasts along the way.
Apparently a fight broke out here, but judging from the situation, it didn't look like it was started by humans.
"Logically speaking, underworld beasts are rampant in this Netherworld Mountain. Once encountered, there will definitely be a fight and no corpses will be left behind?"
Chen Xiu was confused.
But I didn’t think much about it.
He followed the path in his memory and walked deeper into Netherworld Mountain.
Because he had just opened the talent skill stone, he could detect through the induction of mountains and rivers that the number of high-level seventh- and eighth-level underworld beasts in Netherworld Mountain had increased.
Moreover, every underworld beast contains the energy of the underworld bead.
The number of these underworld beads is more than the ones he obtained from the underworld in Qingzhou before.
Shen Xiu will naturally not be polite.
All these underworld beads belong to him.
Let him move on and enter a strange situation again
The surrounding environment gradually became worse, with swamps and mire everywhere, and poisonous insects, snakes and ants everywhere.
"These things..."
Shen Xiu became wary.
Although he has talent, he has not yet set foot in the ninth realm of martial arts, so he is naturally wary of these unknown things.
As he walked slowly, Lord Dutian's ability was activated, and the ground in front of his feet changed from swamp to solid land. This change was very subtle, making Shen Xiu more skillful in controlling this ability.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise that shook the earth.
Immediately afterwards, the ground shook violently.
I noticed the aura fluctuations of the high-level underworld beast in front.
Chen Xiu's face suddenly became serious.
He quickly hid behind a boulder.
Soon, I saw a huge demonic ape rushing out of the dense bushes.
Its whole body is as black as ink, its arms are thick, and its fur is covered with sticky green liquid, exuding a fishy smell.
The eyes glowed with blood-red light, ferocious and terrifying.
Its whole body is flexed with muscles, full of explosive power.
"So strong."
Although he had long expected that there must be many powerful underworld beasts lurking in this Netherworld Mountain, Chen Xiu couldn't help but be secretly surprised at this moment.
Because this monster ape also brought him some sense of oppression.
However, even such a powerful beast is still not worth mentioning in the eyes of Chen Xiu.
He directly activated the prison-suppressing dragon and elephant energy.
Buzz!
Suddenly, circles of ripples spread.
The monster ape's body trembled and suddenly froze.
"Cut!"
Shen Xiu instantly seized the opportunity and used his sword skills.
The intent of the sword permeates the air.
Tsk!
A sharp sword cut through the air and cut the demonic ape in half.
The demon ape screamed, struggled a few times, and finally fell to the ground and died.
Chen Xiu, on the other hand, without stopping, crushed the demon ape's head to pieces and took out a dark pearl that shone with faint brilliance.
The eighth-level monster ape's Mingzhu was obtained directly, and Shen Xiu continued to move forward.
This time the target was a ninth-level underworld beast, and we met it soon in the forbidden area of the mountain forest.
This ninth-level underworld beast is more than ten feet tall, like a demon god.
Its body is covered with a thick shell, like armor, with sharp spikes protruding from the surface of the armor, shining with a cold light, which is shocking to look at.
Its mouth is large, but its teeth are scarlet, like fangs that have sucked blood, giving off a strange aura.
At this time, it opened its mouth and spit out a stream of gray-brown mist, covering the entire sky.
The mist is so thick that it turns into threads.
Silk threads are intertwined to form a network.
Puff puff puff!
Covering Shen Xiu.
In an instant, Chen Xiu felt as if half of his strength had been sealed away.
But at this moment, Shen Xiu is not afraid of these
The mist sneered instead.
I saw him waving his arms and fists vigorously, directly tearing and shattering the mist wrapped around him.
But the next moment.
The mist actually moved quickly.
It has returned to its original state.
Hmm?
These changes were somewhat beyond Shen Xiu's expectations, but he did not look strange. When he stepped on the ground, he immediately felt a steady stream of power pouring from the soles of his feet into various acupuncture points throughout his body.
He raised his leg and trampled it down hard.
Click!
Suddenly, with him as the center of the circle, cracks appeared one after another.
The entire ground collapsed, spreading like a spider web, and the vegetation was broken wherever it went.
Roar!
The ninth-level underworld beast roared and roared, its huge body crushing towards Shen Xiu.
Boom!
It fell with one punch.
The violent and unparalleled power can easily defeat any Nine Realm martial artist.
But Shen Xiu wasn't afraid at all, and didn't even mean to dodge.
He stood on the spot, his eyes were shining brightly, and he chose to fight: "Suppress the Prison Dragon Elephant Strength, open!"
Phew!
Suddenly, his blood boiled all over.
Waves of pure energy and blood flowed crazily into his body from a hundred miles around the ground, extending to his arms.
In the blink of an eye, his arm swelled in a circle visible to the naked eye, and his muscles and bones roared.
Then, he punched out.
Bang!
In an instant, the fist collided with the huge underworld beast, and a violent muffled sound erupted. Huge air waves spread in all directions. In an instant, the entire valley in this large valley shook.
