Li Xiu was a little hesitant. Although King Evil Luo's method was very unreliable, there was still some room for maneuver.
The reason for hesitation is not whether this method is feasible, but the consequences of using this method, and the purpose of the yellow spring insect.
Why the underworld insect kept chasing him? Li Xiu suspected that it had something to do with the demon larvae in his body, but the demon larvae never responded.
Li Xiu has no way of determining whether the demon larvae don't care about the underworld worms at all, or whether the underworld worms have nothing to do with the demon larvae.
"The place where the demon spirit larvae was originally discovered was near the Trial Gate of Sea and Sky. Its parents are most likely to have come from the Trial Gate of Sea and Sky. Theoretically, there is a high possibility that it is related to the Sea of Heaven. The Yellow Spring Insect
It comes from a bottomless pit, and it seems unlikely that it has anything to do with the demon larvae, unless it has some special intention." Li Xiu secretly thought in his mind.
After much thought, Li Xiu decided that it would be better to give it a try. Fortunately, Lao Jia had learned from his mistakes. Li Xiu knew that a short-term exposure to the underworld bug would not cause serious problems immediately, as long as the exposed skin could be peeled off in a timely and decisive manner.
, you can avoid the spread of cold force.
Although he could find someone to try on his behalf, Li Xiu had other ideas and did not do that.
With a decision in his heart, Li Xiu stopped retreating and summoned the Forbidden Spear to transform into flower armor. The red and blue cast spirits possessed him at the same time. Then he squatted down, stretched out a finger, and touched the man who was crawling towards him.
His Yellow Spring Insect.
Protected by the Forbidden Flower Armor, and with the Red and Blue Casting Spirits on his body, if there was any problem, Li Xiu didn't seek merit, but no fault, and just cut off the contact with the Underworld Insect.
Li Xiu's fingertips touched the underworld bug, and it felt like touching jelly. The QQ bounce felt very good.
The cold air on the body of the Yellow Spring Insect is indeed very strong, or it should not be said to be cold air, but a kind of sinister air, not simply cold.
The strange thing is that Li Xiu didn't feel any damage to the flower armor, nor did he sense the intrusion of cold air.
What surprised Li Xiu even more was that when his fingers touched the underworld bug, the underworld bug stopped, like a puppy being stroked on the head, and rubbed Li Xiu's fingertips with its body, as if it was enjoying it.
appearance.
"How could this happen?" King Evil Luo said in surprise.
Although he had only heard about the horror of the underworld bug, even if it was a bit exaggerated, it wouldn't be like this, right? It would be like a pug.
Li Xiu himself was a little surprised, and at the same time he was even more suspicious that the reason why the underworld bug behaved like this might have something to do with the demon spirit larvae.
While Li Xiu was thinking, the underworld insect started moving again, but this time, instead of climbing onto Li Xiu's body, it circled around Li Xiu.
Li Xiu looked a little confused. When the underworld bug crawled before, it would leave some frost on the places it crawled. It was the same now, but this time the frost left behind was a little different.
The body of the Yellow Spring Insect is as transparent as crystal. There is no secret in its body. There is no blood or bones in it. But this time, where it crawled, frost the color of blood appeared.
The blood frost drew a circle around Li Xiu, and every time it climbed out a certain distance, its body shrank in size. By the time it completed the circle, its body was less than half of its previous size.
"What is this? It can't be a skill like drawing the ground as a prison, right?" Li Xiu thought to himself, but did not act rashly.
After the Yellow Spring Insect drew a complete circle of blood, it stopped in front of Li Xiu again, its body like a large silkworm baby raised up and twisted in a weird posture.
"Lao Luo, what's going on?" Li Xiu asked King Luo.
King Evil Luo was obviously confused, and said with some suspicion: "Looking at it, it's not performing skills. The blood frost looks like its own energy essence. Looking at it like this, it's like a kind of sacrifice."
ceremony."
"Sacrifice ceremony? I'm not its father, so why is it sacrificing to me?" Li Xiu saw the underworld insect lowering its body from time to time, and then raising it up again. This action occurred several times, and it really looked like it was worshiping.
"How do I know this? I have never seen the Yellow Spring Worm before. I have only heard about it." King Evil Luo muttered, and then continued: "I have some doubts now. Those things I heard
, maybe not all of them are true, maybe this Underworld Insect is not the clone of that peerless demon spirit, otherwise, with the arrogance of such a being, how could he allow his clone to do such a thing."
"If you say it, you haven't said it yet." Li Xiu frowned.
When the two people were talking, the Yellow Spring Insect seemed to have completed the ritual and its body stopped its strange movements.
Li Xiu stared at the underworld worm warily, wanting to know what it would do next, when he suddenly saw a red light shining inside the underworld worm's body.
The moment the red light appeared, the blood circle it had drawn before also lit up at the same time, like a blood-red halo surrounding Li Xiu.
The body of the Yellow Spring Insect shrank rapidly and disappeared in the blink of an eye, seemingly blending into the bloody halo.
At the same time that the underworld bug disappeared, the bloody halo also rose from the ground at an incredible speed.
Li Xiu immediately burst out with light energy all over his body, and his body jumped up at the same time, rushing into the air like lightning.
He was fast, and the bloody halo was even faster. As soon as Li Xiu's toes left the ground, the bloody halo had already risen to his neck, and instantly shrank and strangled Li Xiu's neck.
The light of truth bloomed on Li Xiu's hands, and he tried to catch the shrinking bloody halo, but failed. The bloody halo passed through the blood armor like a phantom, and then disappeared.
Li Xiu immediately removed the blood armor, took out a mirror and took a look, only to see a circle of red blood marks on his neck, as if someone had drawn a red line on his neck with red ink.
Except for Li Xiu feeling a bit of coldness when the bloody halo just touched his body, he no longer felt anything at all.
"Lao Luo, what's going on?" Li Xiu asked, touching the blood line on his neck.
The blood line seemed to be growing in his flesh, and you couldn't feel its existence with your fingers.
"Don't ask me, I really don't know." King Evil Luo said helplessly.
Li Xiu didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, but he did not sense any hostility towards him from the underworld bug just now, and he also faintly sensed that the demon larvae in his body seemed to have a strange reaction, otherwise he would not have let the underworld bug so easily.
to complete that strange sacrificial ritual.
The reaction of the demon larvae was also very strange. The reaction of the demon larvae before was to make Li Xiu feel hungry, but this time it was completely different. It seemed to be eager anticipation, but also some concerns, and some hesitation in the desire.
Li Xiu originally thought that when the underworld bug moved, the demon larvae would also move. However, until a blood line appeared on his neck, the demon larvae did not move and fell silent again.
"Did I make a mistake in my judgment and the demon spirit larvae are not interested in the underworld worm?" Li Xiu thought to himself.
Li Xiu tried to use the Fire Lotus Sword to cut open the skin where the blood line was to see if he could erase the blood line.
As a result, after the wound healed, the blood line still appeared on the new skin, as if the blood line was his natural one.
Li Xiu tried some more methods, but it was difficult to remove the blood line. However, the blood line seemed to have no effect on his body. He could not even sense a trace of energy fluctuations, just like an ordinary tattoo.
At this point, Li Xiu had no choice but to observe the situation first. It was estimated that this matter would have to be solved by looking at the demon larvae.
Fortunately, Li Xiu also saw that the Yellow Spring Insect's purpose was not to kill him, otherwise it would have already taken action.
Since it had no impact for the time being, Li Xiu ignored it for the time being. He recalled the information about the divine demons he had seen, and planned to start frantically hunting the divine demons to obtain the divine gems.
Before going, Li Xiu went to his small vault and saw that the Cat's Eye gem was still there, which was expected.
He took out the Cat's Eye gem and found Jiuxiaoyun.
"I'll give you the cat's eye. If you want to think about it in the future, it's up to you." After Jiuxiaoyun arrived, Li Xiu gave him the cat's eye gem.
"The long-cherished wish of my family for so many generations has finally come to fruition. Thanks to the chief, from now on I, Jiu Xiaoyun, will be a member of the technician team and die as a ghost of the skills team." Jiu Xiaoyun took the gem and said with a complicated expression.
.
"It's just a gem. It's not like that. I will go to the Sea of Heaven in a while. I don't know whether this trip is a blessing or a curse, and I don't know if I will come back alive. These are just things outside my body. I never take it to heart. You
It doesn’t have to be like this." Li Xiu said calmly.
Jiu Xiaoyun smiled and said: "Chief, who do you think I am, Jiu Xiaoyun? Some people think that if you have one hundred yuan, give me ninety-nine yuan. If you have ten thousand yuan, giving me one hundred yuan is insignificant."
But I don’t think so. No matter how much you have, it is all the result of your own efforts. You have given me what I need, which is a kindness to me. How can I, Jiu Xiaoyun, be a person who knows how to repay kindness? In the future, I will not repay my kindness.
As long as you are still the chief of the technical team, I, Jiu Xiaoyun, will always be a member of the technical team."
"What if I'm no longer here?" Li Xiu said softly.
"Then I will support the technician team for you and wait for you to come back." Jiu Xiaoyun said.
"In that case, I really have a favor to ask of you." Li Xiu muttered.
"The boss's affairs are my business. I just give you orders. I will do my best and will never be perfunctory. But I have to send the Cat's Eye back to my family first. This matter is too important to my family. Please forgive me, boss."
." Jiu Xiaoyun said calmly.
Li Xiu nodded: "After I go to Tianzhihai, if I can't come back, I hope you can help me take care of Zaizai and raise her."
"Isn't Miss Ming'er taking good care of you?" Jiu Xiaoyun asked doubtfully.
"If I can't come back, I don't want Zaizai to be related to Changshengtian again, and I don't want anyone from Changshengtian to see her again. Do you understand what I mean?" Li Xiu said.
"I understand, just don't worry. If you can't come back, I will take Zaizai away from Changshengtian, go to a place where no one can find her, and raise her as my own daughter." Jiu Xiaoyun said seriously.
"That makes me feel relieved." Li Xiu nodded slightly.
After Jiuxiaoyun left, Li Xiu called the bandit to go to the trial gate with him. Before he went to Tianzhihai, he hoped to give the bandit a certain ability to protect himself.
After passing the trial with A-Gie and arriving at the trial site, A-Gie suddenly stared at Li Xiu and asked, "Do you already know who the God is who killed me all over?"
Li Xiu didn't mean to hide it, and nodded: "Although I can't be sure whether it is that person, but even if it is not him, the person you will face in the end will still be him. I am not his opponent yet, and neither are you."
"Guan Jinghao from Space City?" Bandit asked directly.
"Yes." Li Xiu told the story about Guan Jinghao's creation of clones, and then sighed: "With Guan Jinghao's personality, he should not bother to personally kill ordinary people like your parents. Nine times out of ten, they are his
What the replicants did.”
"I know, let's go." The bandit didn't ask any more questions.
Li Xiu took A'Gie to find the divine demon spirit. On the way, he gave A'Gie some resources that he could not use, so that she could improve her strength as much as possible.
Li Xiu had a vague feeling in his heart that his trip to the sea of the sky was likely to cause huge changes, and he hoped that Agui and the others could survive the big changes.
…
In the laboratory of the Magic Costume Institute, a dress-like magic costume is connected to densely packed light filaments. Those light filaments are constantly delivering light energy into the magic costume, causing the light energy on the magic costume to increase.
The stronger it gets, the entire magic outfit will almost turn into light.
"Old Officer, the value of the magic equipment fluctuates greatly, do you want to continue?" Several old researchers who were staring at the values kept reporting the values, looking very nervous.
"Continue." The old official was unmoved and said decisively.
"Old Officer, if such a violent fluctuation continues, there may be great risks. If something unexpected happens, all your hard work over the years will be ruined. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gather these materials." Xu
The professor reminded from the side.
The old official stared at the magical costume that was about to turn into light and said: "It is because it is impossible to find substitutes for those materials, so I can only give it a try. If I don't give it a try now, I will never know the result."
.Do you think you won’t encounter the same problems if you do it again? Besides, when will we be able to gather so many magic cores and do it again?”
"That's true. I just think it would be a pity if it were destroyed. You have devoted your whole life to this magic costume..." Professor Xu said.
The old official smiled solemnly and said: "As long as I am not dead, it is not a lifetime. If it is ruined, it will be ruined. At worst, I will have to start over again. If I don't even have this awareness, what kind of scientific research will I do?"
After hearing this, Professor Xu no longer hesitated, and laughed and said: "It's true, if you don't fail, you will never know where you went wrong, so let's do it."
Under the command of the two men, many researchers at the institute were constantly busy, various instruments were flashing, and the values on the instruments were also fluctuating rapidly.
Bang!
One of the light threads connecting the magic equipment suddenly broke.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically. Official Ximen and Professor Xu quickly made adjustments, hoping to stabilize the situation.
But before the situation stabilized, the light filaments broke again, and the light filaments continued to break, one after another.
"The light energy transmission fiber is not strong enough. Although it is made of the material of that god-level demon spirit, it still cannot withstand such strong light energy transmission..." Professor Xu said loudly.
"Stop the experiment." Official Ximen made a decisive decision and ordered the experiment to be stopped. He sat down on the chair with some dejection.
Stopping the experiment means failure. This experiment almost emptied the institute's savings. If it were to be done again, I don't know how many more years it would have to wait.
Professor Xu kept instructing the researchers to cut off various instruments, and the light energy transmission fibers continued to break, and many light filaments broke at once.
As the instrument is turned off, the light energy furnace slowly stops operating, and the light energy inside gradually weakens.
However, once the light energy furnace is running, it cannot be stopped all at once. The light energy in the light energy furnace can only be gradually controlled and dispersed and transmitted to the storage.
Seeing that the light energy furnace was slowly stopping, it suddenly started running crazily again, outputting light energy even more crazily than before.
The entire light energy furnace is like red-hot steel. A large number of magic cores inside are detonated to release light energy. The output light energy does not decrease but increases.
Those light energy transmission fibers could not withstand such terrifying light energy, and they broke faster. In the blink of an eye, a large number of light energy transmission fibers were broken.
Less than one-third of the light thread connecting the magic equipment is left, but the light energy input into the magic equipment is several times more than before.
"Cut off the light energy transmission fiber..." Old Guan'er jumped up and rushed to the place where the light energy furnace was connected.
"Don't go there, the light energy is too strong, don't get close!" Professor Xu desperately grabbed the old man. The old researcher over there who wanted to cut off the light energy transmission fiber had not even gotten close, and the protective clothing on his body was already damaged by the light.
It can cause burns and burn directly.
Almost instantly, the man's whole body was on fire.
Qiu Tianyu saw the opportunity quickly. He wore a magic suit and directly picked up the coolant, sprayed it on the man, extinguished the fire on the researcher, and pulled him out.
"All personnel evacuate immediately." The old official shouted through gritted teeth.
"Old officer, we can't withdraw... withdraw now... everything will be lost... We can try again..." the old researcher shouted with red eyes.
"If it's gone, we can recreate it. Life is important." Professor Xu shouted loudly.
"We are all at this age. We are not afraid of death. Let's try again." The old researcher did not retreat at all, and his eyes were already red.
They all know in their hearts that if everything is destroyed this time, they may not get a second chance in their lifetime.
"Old Xu, let's give it another try," Lao Guan'er said, staring at the light energy furnace that could explode at any time.
"How to fight? It's out of control now, the light energy furnace will explode at any time..." Professor Xu said.
"If the light energy furnace really explodes, how far do you think us old guys can run?" Professor Xu was stunned by what the old man said.
"Is the spectrum editor still normal?" Old Guan'er asked as he looked at an old researcher guarding the instrument.
"Normal." The old researcher yelled.
"Where's the Light Particle Collider?"
"normal!"
…
Every question and answer was answered, and everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs, as if that was the only way they could be heard.
"Then let's bet the lives of us old guys and use our knowledge and technology to fight the God of Death. Let's see whether Death takes our lives first or we complete this final experiment first..." Old Officer
Er stared at the magic costume with burning eyes, and finally murmured to himself in a voice that could only be heard by himself: "Old man, I have been here for half my life. If we survive this last hurdle, we will all be free."
