Huge skeletons like this can be found everywhere on the Bone Road, so it's not unusual.
But the problem is that this huge skeleton is new, and the flesh and blood on it seems to have just been eaten by some kind of creature.
However, the demonic power emanating from this skeleton is extremely huge.
Obviously, this is a demon king, and a very powerful demon king. Judging from the demonic power, this should be a peak demon king.
So, what kind of power killed a peak demon king on the road of bones?
What kind of creature can actually chew up a demon king with so much power?
When I think about it carefully, I feel horrified.
"Be on full alert!"
Xia Nan's voice rang in everyone's minds.
Everyone is holding a handful of "goddess spirit beads" in their hands. Once suspicious circumstances arise, they will throw them at the target without hesitation.
With the "Goddess Spirit Pearl" in their hands, everyone suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
However, no one was curious enough to go and investigate.
The occurrence of such weird things in the Demon Abyss must be accompanied by huge dangers.
Even the peak demon king is dead, and he is dead with no flesh, only a skeleton, let alone these gods who have not yet stepped into the king of gods.
The safest way is not to be curious and get out of here as soon as possible.
Whoosh!
The speed of the six people suddenly increased.
But not far away, they saw huge skeletons lying across the road of bones again, and this time there were three of them. The skeletons exuded the power of the demon king during his lifetime and the monstrous resentment as black as ink, blocking the path of the six people.
Without saying a word, Xia Nan immediately led Xia Yan, Xia Hu and others around to the left.
If possible, try not to touch this thing. He had a strong feeling that these skeletons not only exuded overwhelming magical power, but also contained a curse that was difficult to wash away.
Once you touch it, it will be very troublesome, and you may even be cursed.
Even Huo Wu's Lihuo may not be able to completely purify these curses.
As for his purple energy, he was sure it would work, but he didn't want to cause trouble.
At this critical moment, he didn't want to make any mistakes.
Xia Yan, Xia Hu and others naturally have no objections. Xia Nan will do whatever he says. Wherever he goes, they will follow him without any objection.
Ahead is a black canyon with tall mountains on both sides. The canyon is pitch black, making it impossible to detect with spiritual consciousness, and the vision is limited. Even the map mode can only extend to a range of 500 meters.
Within a radius of 500 meters, no living creatures were found. Except for some plants and rocks, it was completely silent.
Xia Nan thought for a while and prepared to enter the canyon.
Although I don't know if the canyon is dangerous, at least there won't be a demon king's skeleton. Maybe I can return to the original place through the canyon.
However, not long after entering the canyon, Xia Nan's expression changed.
It's not because the surroundings are gloomy, nor because the bloody smell here is too strong, nor because it's too dark to see clearly in the distance, but because he found that the various trees, flowers, plants, and stones around here are not real trees.
, flowers, plants and stones, but are transformed from countless small insects.
Even the mountains as high as ten thousand feet and this canyon are made of countless small insects.
What is this concept?
In other words, they entered a world composed of countless bugs.
These bugs are dark gray in color, only the size of a fingernail, and have a pair of sharp claws and a huge jaw that takes up almost half of their body. Some have dark red tops, some have dark cyan tops, and so on.
Together they form this "colorful" and extremely realistic canyon world.
What shocked Xia Nan even more was that these insects, which seemed to have hard carapace on their bodies, could fuse with each other like water, and after fusion, they could separate from each other and return to their original state.
Xia Yan also noticed this change, her pretty face suddenly changed, and she blurted out: "Soul-eating worm!"
"retreat!"
Xia Nan shouted loudly.
Then he quickly retreated.
What can shock even Xia Yan is definitely not something good.
Xia Yan, Xia Hu and others also quickly retreated.
But there was no time, those tall trees and mountain peaks suddenly turned into dense insects.
"Take action!"
Xia Nan shouted.
The first one threw out the "Goddess Spirit Pearl".
This "Spiritual Pearl" was truly worthy of being the object of the Goddess of the Nine Heavens. It was so powerful that it killed a large area in an instant.
Xia Yan, Xia Hu and others also threw one each, and explosions sounded one after another, blasting through the entire valley.
[Ding! The origin of Shinto +0.000001, +0.000001, +0.000001,…]
A series of reminders sounded in my mind.
Although the number of Shinto origins obtained is very small, and even many can only accumulate one hundred thousandth of the Shinto origin, there are so many soul-eating worms that they are almost endless.
However, these are not what Xia Nan is most concerned about. He was shocked to find that in such a violent explosion, some soul-eating insects survived from the "Goddess Spirit Pearl".
What is this concept?
You must know that the explosion of the "Goddess Spirit Pearl" can be equal to the full blow of the God King at his peak, which means that the strength of these soul-eating insects is much stronger than the strength of gods like them, and has already reached the level of God King.
Moreover, there were quite a lot of these bugs. After killing a large area, hundreds of bugs survived and seemed to be completely unharmed.
In other words, there are hundreds of God-King-level soul-eating insects here!
"Soul-eating worms are native to the Nine Nether Starry Sky. They are creatures that can devour souls and grow. However, one of the biggest characteristics of soul-eating worms is that they have extremely strong survival adaptability. Not only can they devour each other, but they can also eat each other.
Fusion, as if the individuals of these soul-eating insects are just cells in the body of a huge creature. At the same time, they are also omnivorous.
Creatures eat everything, from planets to dust, and even invisible soul energy. They have special carapace protection all over their bodies. They have almost no shortcomings except that they can be killed violently. None of them died in the explosion.
The Soul-Eating Insects should be mutated Soul-Eating Insects. If I guessed correctly, they should have mastered some space power..."
Xia Yan's voice sounded in Xia Nan's mind.
While talking,
Boo hoo hoo…
Hundreds of "god-king-level" soul-eating insects suddenly arrived, and Xia Nan chopped them down with one strike.
"Slay God!"
The purple sword light spread out, forming thousands of blades, weaving into a dense knife network.
However, these soul-eating insects were only chopped away by the invincible purple sword light, but not killed.
At the moment of the attack, their bodies seemed to have countless layers of space. Although they were broken into pieces layer by layer, they still did not hit the main body in the end.
Xia Nan secretly sighed, as Xia Yan said, these soul-eating insects have mastered the power of space.
In fact, it is because my cultivation level is not enough and I have not understood the laws of space, so I am far from being able to exert the power of purple energy. Otherwise, purple energy can definitely break through the space and kill these "god-king level" soul-eating insects.
Xia Nan quickly conveyed the characteristics of the Soul-Eating Insects to Xia Hu and the others, making everyone pay attention to them.
The explosion of the "Goddess Spirit Pearl" seemed to arouse the ferocity of all the soul-devouring beads. In an instant, the entire canyon suddenly changed and turned into huge ferocious birds.
These ferocious birds had wings spread up to a thousand meters, and they rushed towards Xia Nan and others. Their terrifying demonic power was so great that they reached the level of the peak demon king.
Xia Nan didn't need to remind them. The "goddess spirit beads" in the hands of Xia Yan, Xia Hu and others were thrown at these ferocious birds as if they were free of charge.
Rumble, rumble...
Explosions were heard everywhere, huge ferocious birds were destroyed one after another, and countless soul-eating insects were annihilated in ashes. Xia Nan also harvested hundreds of divine origins, and quickly exceeded a thousand.
The entire canyon went crazy, and everything covering the sky was filled with soul-eating insects. They rushed towards Xia Nan and the others without fear of death.
Especially the God-King-level soul-eating insects. Some of them were killed by the "Goddess Spirit Pearl", but a large part of them were safe and sound. They even became more ferocious than before because they devoured the destructive power after the explosion.
And there are tens of thousands of soul-eating insects in this part, which is the most terrifying thing.
Xia Nan finally understood why those peak demon kings died on the Road of Bones. Although they were very strong, they could not withstand too many Soul-eating Insects here, and there were also an extremely large number of God-King-level Soul-Eating Insects.
When the manpower is limited, the same goes for the Demon King. Under the fierce and fearless charge of these god-king-level soul-eating insects, it is strange that he will not die.
But soon, Xia Nan discovered that tens of thousands of God-King-level soul-eating worms were just the beginning. With the explosion of "Goddess Spirit Pearls", there were more and more God-King-level soul-eating worms.
Xia Nan couldn't figure out whether there were so many god-king-level soul-eating insects in the first place, or whether these soul-eating insects mutated after devouring each other in the explosion.
If it is the former, it means that there are at least hundreds of thousands of God-King-level soul-eating insects lurking here.
If there are only dozens or even hundreds of soul-eating worms, they can still be killed with the remaining "goddess spirit beads", but hundreds of thousands of god-king level soul-eating worms... just thinking about it makes one's scalp numb.
What is even more disturbing is that if it is the latter, that is, these soul-eating insects devoured each other and mutated in the explosion, it would be even more terrifying.
Facing the soul-eating insects that cover the sky and the sun, it is impossible to escape. The only way is to kill them all.
Originally, I planned to keep some "Goddess Spirit Beads" for use after entering the God Realm. After all, there are 432 "Goddess Spirit Beads" in total, and I can't use them all.
But now... I'm afraid it's simply not enough.
One after another, the "Goddess Spiritual Orbs" were thrown, and the violent explosion force blew countless soul-eating insects into ashes, flying tens of thousands of god-king-level soul-eating insects away, blocking everyone hundreds of meters away.
Seeing that the "Goddess Spirit Orb" in his hand was about to be used up, the soul-eating insects that covered the sky were almost endless, and it seemed that they would never be able to kill them all.
Not only Xia Yan and others were worried, but even Xia Nan, who had always been calm, couldn't help but become a little worried.
Once the "Goddess Spirit Pearl" is used up, what awaits them will be a fierce battle, bad luck, and even death.
"System, is there any solution to this problem?"
Xia Nan asked in her heart.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had sought help from the system.
The last time I asked, it seemed that I was still in the mortal world.
Now, after many years, Xia Nan asked again.
[There are two solutions to the problem. One is that the host consumes all the source of purple energy to forcefully break through to the God King. Only the power of the law can compete with the law. The second is to use the ultimate sword in "Breaking Law" to cut through this world.
, but after this overloaded sword is used, the host will fall into a deep sleep for at least ten thousand years. 】
The system clearly told Xia Nan the answer.
Xia Nan frowned slightly, the first one was pretty much what he thought.
Otherwise, his purple air sword light would not be useless against those god-king level soul-eating insects.
To break through to the God King, one must understand the divine laws of space. But currently, he only has a little understanding of the laws of space and has not yet started.
It would be possible to consume all the source of purple energy to forcefully break through to the God King, but purple energy is his biggest trump card. It is the only way he can kill the tribulation demon, and even defeat the enemy across the gods in the future. Once lost, he will not know.
What does the future hold.
As for the second one, it's simple. Just use the ultimate sword to solve it. However, after solving it, he will fall into a 10,000-year sleep. This is something he does not want to see and cannot do.
It would be fine if the world of gods were peaceful. To the gods, sleeping for ten thousand years is like a mortal sleeping at home, waking up the next day, and then everything is as usual.
But now the God Realm is about to be destroyed. If he sleeps at this time, not only will he die in the end, but also the parents he brought up, Xia Hu, and the more than 700,000 "followers" who ascended from the Xianwu World.
To die.
Even Xia Yan will "die". Of course, her "death" is that she may swallow her "true spirit body" at a critical moment, causing Queen Shura to regenerate, and her consciousness in this life is likely to be swallowed by Queen Shura.
Or, in the end, the soul may explode and die.
In short, once he falls asleep, the consequences will be very bad.
No matter which one of these two methods can solve the problem at hand, they are both poisonous to quench thirst.
Xia Nan was caught in a dilemma for a while.
At this moment, Xia Yan, who was using the "Goddess Spirit Pearl" to kill the soul-eating insects, looked at the swarm of soul-eating insects rolling in the sky and covering the sky, thinking that there were still eight "Goddess Spirit Pearls" left in her hand.
", finally made her decision.
A flash of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Brother, protect me!"
Xia Yan shouted loudly.
Then he threw eight "goddess spirit beads" to Xia Nan.
"No! It's too dangerous!"
Xia Nan's expression changed, and he naturally knew what his little sister was going to do.
"No matter how dangerous it is, is there anything more dangerous than the current situation?"
Xia Yan stared at Xia Nan with a pair of bright eyes and said.
Then he took a deep breath and said in a serious tone: "Believe me!"
Xia Nan swallowed the words when they reached her lips.
He stared at Xia Yan's clear eyes that shone with determination.
She's right, is there anything more dangerous than the current situation?
At present, there is almost no other feasible way except for Xia Yan to step into the God King in advance.
This is also the only best way.
And he also knew that no matter how much he said, he couldn't change Xia Yan's decision.
Xia Yan was not only his sister in this life, she was also a Shura Queen in her previous life and the ruler of billions of stars. Although she was reincarnated, the pride engraved deep in her soul still existed.
