Chapter 494: Ruins Spirit (please ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket)
“Hoo!”
The black ghost-like creature rushed straight towards Zhou Qing again, its feet lifted off the ground, floating It was traveling very fast, causing gusts of wind.
A layer of black light enveloped his fist, and Zhou Qing blasted directly at the ghost shadow. Even the Nine Yang Tide made waves and was greatly affected.
“Boom!”
He punched the ghost and scattered it, but something very strange happened immediately.
The ghost turned into smoke and attached itself to Zhou Qing, trying to wrap Zhou Qing's whole body.
This kind of ghost is as if it can’t be killed!
But Zhou Qing looked calm and not panicked.
Is there anything in this world that cannot be killed?
At least this ghost couldn't have such magical powers.
The red energy and blood filled the air, and instead rolled back and wrapped a large amount of black smoke.
Then the energy and blood steamed, making a chi chi sound, and the black smoke began to gradually decrease, and was finally swept away.
The qi and blood spread out, and there was no trace of any ghost anymore, and then the qi and blood was collected into Zhou Qing's body.
Zhou Qing frowned, "This ruin spirit is really weird."
This kind of monster is also recorded in Jiuyang Encyclopedia. It is a native creature of Jiuyang Ruins. It does not exist in the outside world. How it appeared is unknown.
There may also be one in the Boundless Sky Ruins, but it is too far away and has nothing to do with Zhou Qing for the time being.
Xu Ling has different forms, some are humanoid and some are non-humanoid. They are not flesh and blood creatures, but they are not souls either. What kind of life forms they are is not mentioned in Jiuyang Encyclopedia. .
Judging from the performance of the ruin spirit just now, we can know that it is something completely different from normal life.
The biggest characteristic of Xu Ling is that it is difficult to kill.
It is difficult to kill them all at once with punches, kicks, knives and stabs. They will only scatter them, and they can be reunited at any time, or they can continue to fight against the enemy in a scattered posture.
If your whole body is covered by the mist spirit, it will be completely eroded by it. Your body will be occupied by the spirit, and your soul will be directly eaten by the spirit!
The physical body occupied by the Xu Ling will gradually wither as time goes by, and eventually disappear, not even the bones will be left, as if it has been digested by the Xu Ling.
There are precedents that prove that every time a living body is digested, the strength of the Xu Ling will be greatly improved.
If you want to kill the Xulings, you have to disperse them again and again until they reach their limit and collapse.
Or use some means to trap them, and then use your power to continuously refine and kill them, and finally let them disappear and evaporate.
In short, they can only be killed through hard work. Unlike other enemies, you can kill them by beheading them and poking their hearts. This is not a creature that can be killed easily. It has extremely tenacious vitality. .
The Ruins Spirit may appear anywhere in Jiuyang Ruins, and can fly to the sky or escape from the earth.
It may appear in the depths and edge areas, but no Ruin Spirit has ever been found outside Jiuyang Ruins. It seems that this kind of monster can only move in this ruins.
Not only the cultivators who come into Jiuyang Xu from the outside are the targets of the Xu Ling, but even the wild beasts living inside Jiu Yang Xu will be attacked by the Xu Ling.
This is a strange monster that only targets life. If you put a puppet in front of the ruin spirit, the puppet will not be attacked by the ruin spirit.
It can be said to be the enemy of life, a monster that specializes in devouring life.
A ruin spirit whose attack power is almost at the viscera level, it would take a lot of effort for a bone-refining warrior to kill it completely.
As for the weaker ruin spirits...
There is no weaker ruin spirit than the viscera realm. At least among the ruin spirits discovered so far, there is no weaker ruin spirit.
Ruins spirits are definitely one of the dangers practitioners least want to encounter after entering Jiuyang Ruins.
It is both difficult and difficult to deal with.
You can still get some flesh and blood materials by killing a savage beast, but you can get nothing by killing a ruin spirit with so much effort.
Just like just now, not even a single hair from the Black Ruins spirit was left to Zhou Qing.
This kind of thing seems to be a mass of insubstantial polymer that gave birth to consciousness, without any component parts that have the nature of existence.
As for the level of the Xu Ling's strength, relying on the experience accumulated over the long years, the current world has probably summarized the rules.
The Monochromatic Ruins Spirit is the weakest. Its attack power is around the Zang-Fu level, but its vitality is incredibly powerful. The overall strength of the Mono-Colored Ruins is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary Zang-Fu warriors.
The two-color ruin spirit is probably at the bone refining level.
For example, the ruins spirits in Dark Sun Ruins are generally black, but some ruins spirits have evolved into a second color, which is the color of one of the other eight ruins.
In this way, its strength will skyrocket.
Possessing the colors of other areas is a super evolution that breaks the shackles for Xu Ling.
The attack power of the three-color Ruins Spirit is about the same as that of Marrow Cleansing, and so on, the four-color True Blood, the five-color Ruins, and the six-colors reach the sky...
The Six-color Ruins, It is the strongest ruin spirit on record. In Jiuyang Ruins, there has never been a ruin spirit with more than six colors.
Besides, even if it really happened, there would be no news about it.
When encountering the Six-Colored Ruins Spirit, the Tongtian Warrior, and the Biluo Monk will also run away. If they really encounter the non-existent Seven-Colored Ruins Spirit...
There is no other choice but to wait for death.
Zhou Qing continued to walk forward, and the scene before his eyes also changed.
The edge area is basically flat, with occasional fallen dead trees and scattered gravel.
But after walking a little further, more scenery will appear.
The forest is burning with flames, the strange-looking rocks, the cracked earth, the dry riverbed...
"Bah!"
A sharp cry suddenly sounded in the sky, and then Zhou Qing saw a strange bird covered with black flames flying from a distance and swooping directly towards him.
The strange bird has sharp claws, and it has six sharp claws, but it has no feathers on its body. Instead, it has dog-like hair, and there are bulges on its body, and a snake tail dragging behind it.
There is a sharp beak on the bird's head, but the top is a red fleshy thing like a cock's comb, and its eyes are like snakes. When the bird's beak opens, snake letters spit out.
This thing has a weird style of painting.
The strong wind was like a knife cutting. Feeling the momentum of the strange bird, Zhou Qing had a rough judgment on its power.
When it swooped over Zhou Qing, the strange bird stretched out its sharp claws, trying to grab Zhou Qing into the sky.
Zhou Qing stepped heavily on the ground, shaped like a ghost, and instantly dodged the air attack. Then he jumped up, grabbed the strange bird, and pulled hard, making it no longer stable and crazy. struggle.
“Bang!”
In the end, the strange bird was thrown to the ground by Zhou Qing.
"Boom!"
With another kick, Zhou Qing stepped directly on the neck of the strange bird, causing it to die immediately.
“A savage beast that has just entered the bone refining realm dares to attack me.”
It’s really too presumptuous!
Although this strange bird looks strange, it is a savage beast after all, not a ruin spirit.
It takes a lot of effort to kill the ruin spirit, but it is really easy to kill a savage beast that has just entered the bone refining process.
"Sir, this savage beast looks so strange." An Lang's voice sounded.
“The savage beasts in Jiuyang Ruins look like this.”
Zhou Qing looked at the savage beasts. This majestic appearance was really too much to praise.
Why does he feel that this kind of creature seems to have been exposed to radiation...
From the Jiuyang Encyclopedia, we learned that the local flesh-and-blood life forms in Jiuyang Ruins are basically weird and different from normal creatures.
According to previous speculations, this mutation should be due to the influence of the power of Jiuyang Ruins.
The radiation that Zhou Qing thought about actually means the same thing.
Zhou Qing's mental power was sensed on the strange bird, and then he took out a military knife that he had taken out from the treasure box last month and cut open a spot on the strange bird's abdomen.
A black bead was exposed and he took it out.
"Is this the wild beast bead that is a specialty of Jiuyang Xu?"
Zhou Qing briefly sensed that the beast bead indeed contained a good amount of fire power, as well as the power of qi and blood.
“It’s a good thing, a good cultivation resource.”
Zhou Qing put the beast bead away.
The changes in the beasts of Jiuyang Ruins are not only reflected in their appearance, but also in their interiors.
It is this kind of beast bead.
Normal beasts outside, except for a few special races, will not breed such things like "inner elixirs".
But the beasts of Jiuyang Ruins all have beads in their bodies, which contain a lot of energy, blood, and fire power.
The former is actually the essence of the beast's own flesh and blood, while the latter is caused by the beast staying in Jiuyang Ruins for many years and absorbing a large amount of fire energy here.
In Jiuyang City, beast beads are also a kind of hard currency. They can be sold for money or used as money.
But there is a price for obtaining beast beads from savage beasts.
That is the corpse of a savage beast, which has become worthless.
The flesh and blood essence of the Ruin beasts are all in the beast beads. Even if you take their bodies out, no one will take them away.
This kind of flesh that has been mutated by the power of Jiuyang Xu will be harmful to the human body if eaten.
In Zhou Qing’s understanding, it is eating nuclear radiation food...
If not, who would you poison?
So compared to the normal beasts, the Ruin beasts have both gains and losses. Of course, no matter how much you lose, it is much more cost-effective to hunt down the beasts than to hunt down the spirits.
No matter what, the Xu Barbarian Beast can at least gain something, but the Xu Ling is really an iron rooster.
Although normal beasts do not have beast beads, their flesh and blood are a great tonic. After use, they can replenish their vitality, slowly strengthen their bodies, and strengthen their qi and blood. The effect is similar to that of beast beads.
It's just that the beast beads have quick effects, but are more violent, while the wild beast flesh and blood has slow effects, but are gentler.
But if given a choice, most people would actually choose the beast beads.
Quick results also mean more time to make progress.
However, when Zhou Qing looked at the corpse of the strange bird on the ground, he hesitated.
According to common sense, this thing cannot be eaten.
But he has a Kun clone this month, and the clone also has the talent of swallowing...
According to the inheritance information that the Kun clone comes with, except for a few things that exist in the void, it can eat everything else. Digestion.
So, this radioactive bird corpse seems to have something to do with it?
After all, it is a strange beast from the void. The realm of bone refining is comparable to that of marrow washing with only the physical body. There should be no problem, right?
Besides, Zhou Qing believes that an environment like Void must be more advanced and harsher than Jiuyang Ruins.
He can come to Jiuyang Ruins, but he can't go to Void. This is the best example.
If you can make the best use of everything, it is naturally the best.
But there is one thing that Zhou Qing is not sure about, and that is whether Kun's body will feel it when his clone swallows something.
If the tastes were synchronized, then he thought it would be better not to eat.
He didn’t want to taste the strange bird.
So Zhou Qing first conducted an experiment and fed Kun's clone a very sweet medicinal material.
Swallowing talent, activate!
After the medicinal materials were consumed, they entered the internal space of Kun's clone and were immediately digested. A small trace of energy merged into Kun's body without causing any waves.
As for Zhou Qing's body, he didn't feel anything.
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up and he understood something.
"My clone digests things with the gift of devouring. It doesn't really eat it, but directly decomposes and digests it. There will be no other feelings."
Whether it tastes bad or delicious, Kun's clone cannot feel it. The only difference is the amount of energy.
“And although I control the clone, the feelings from it will obviously not be transmitted to me.”
Whether Kun’s clone is injured or dying, everything The feeling would only appear on that clone and would not affect Zhou Qing.
After discovering this, Zhou Qing felt relieved.
He cut off the tail of the strange bird, roasted it and fed it to Kun's clone.
Although he doesn't feel anything when he eats it, he is still his clone after all. If possible, he should try to eat cooked food.
You can't do it in front of yourself even if you drink hair or blood.
The reason why he only ate the tail was to see if the Kun clone could ignore the effects of this radiation.
It is recorded in Jiuyang Encyclopedia that after eating the flesh and blood of the Xu beast, if the amount is small, it will make oneself very uncomfortable, and may even lead to a riot of true energy and physical exhaustion.
But it will take some time to slowly return to normal without causing death.
But if you eat too much, you will die immediately.
With the strength of the Kun clone, eating a tail would definitely be no problem.
Sure enough, after the beast tail entered the body space, it was immediately digested, no residue was left, and it was turned into energy and absorbed.
The Kun clone did not show any abnormality and regarded the radiation as if it were nothing!
Zhou Qing was overjoyed, he was indeed my clone, so strong!
He immediately roasted the entire bird carcass, then Kun's clone grew in size and swallowed it in one gulp.
When An Lang in the ghost house saw this scene, he was stunned, and then said in shock:
"Master, are you desperate for your life? Can you eat this food?"
Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head, "You don't understand."
The corpse of the strange bird was easily digested without any negative impact on the Kun clone.
Great, the Void Beast is awesome!
Because the Kun clone could only exist for a month, Zhou Qing did not plan to spend a lot of effort cultivating it at first.
This month I fed him some treasures regardless of the cost, but a month later the golden finger was refreshed, and he was almost at a loss.
Anyway, when he leaves Jiuyang Ruins, he will most likely spend this month on the road.
It doesn't matter whether he cultivates a clone of Kun or not.
But now that it can digest the body of the beast, Zhou Qing naturally doesn't mind taking advantage of it.
He has no other use for these beast bodies unless they are eaten by Kun's clones.
Make maximum use of all resources!
Kun's clone, which had digested the body of a Ruin beast, became smaller again and returned to Zhou Qing's sleeve. There was no abnormality in it until Zhou Qing walked far away again.
It can be seen that this kind of flesh and blood, which ordinary people regard as evil, does no harm to Kun's clone.
The golden finger is so powerful.
He wants the beast beads, and he also wants flesh and blood!
But Zhou Qing had not walked long when he saw another black shadow floating in the distance.
It’s the Xu Ling again!
It was still a black ruin spirit. Although it had tenacious vitality, it was obviously impossible to escape from Zhou Qing's hands.
After killing the ruin spirit, Zhou Qing's brows furrowed tightly.
The frequency of his encounters with Xu Ling was a bit high.
Although he has only met two ruin spirits, which does not seem to be a lot, judging from the information that Manager Li gave him, some people may not be able to meet one if they enter Jiuyang Xu several times. spirit.
The number of Xu Ling is very small compared to the Xu Beasts and other dangers.
Otherwise, if the Ruins Spirit is everywhere, who would dare to enter Jiuyang Ruins given how difficult and weird it is?
An enemy that cannot be killed in a short time can easily drag you to death!
It is precisely because of the small number that people from outside have the opportunity to come in and take risks.
But he met two ruin spirits in a short period of time, which was undoubtedly very strange.
I will meet all the ruin spirits that others encounter in a month here!
Such anomalies cast a shadow over Zhou Qing's heart.
I hope it's just my bad luck...
If it's not bad luck, then either something happened to Jiuyang Ruins, which caused an increase in the number of Ruins spirits, or these Ruins spirits are rushing. Came here with Zhou Qing.
Whether it is the former or the latter, it is not good news, especially the latter...
"Huh!"
Suddenly, blazing flames burst out from the earth, right in front of Zhou Qing.
The surrounding temperature soared in an instant, causing Zhou Qing to brake quickly and retreat continuously.
Looking at the sea of fire that suddenly burned and cut off his path, Zhou Qing wiped his sweat.
Almost roasted.
This is another type of danger in Jiuyang Ruins.
natural disasters.
Compared with the Xu Ling and Xu Beasts, this danger is more unpredictable and unpredictable.
Whether it is mental perception or eye skills, it is impossible to foresee such dangers in advance. The main thing is to take it by surprise.
And this kind of danger has no rules, and the cards are not played according to the rules.
The danger level of Jiuyang Ruins gradually increases from the outside to the inside, but this kind of trap coming from Jiuyang Ruins itself does not necessarily follow this rule.
It is also possible that a "sky fire" may fall directly on the edge and sweep everything away, burning everything to the ground.
It is too unpredictable and unpredictable.
Such a danger is as annoying and undesirable as the ruin spirit.
Zhou Qing carefully avoided the sea of fire ahead and continued to move forward.
Here, caution is the key to going out.
But after a while, Zhou Qing stopped again, and his expression completely changed.
In the sky, another ruin spirit appeared. This time it was a two-color ruin spirit, which was comparable to the bone refining realm, and its vitality would only become more tenacious.
The two-colored Xu Ling is not a big problem to him. It will definitely not kill him. If it dares to appear in front of him, it will be a dead end.
But this was the third ruin spirit he had encountered. He encountered them one after another, and the meaning behind them made him feel chilled.
Zhou Qing felt that he was most likely being targeted by the Xu Ling.
Two colored ruin spirits fell from the sky and came straight towards him, with a forced smile on Zhou Qing's face.
“Ask a question.”
“What do you monsters like about me?”
“Can I change my career?”
The Xu Ling didn't speak, and the two-colored Xu Ling couldn't speak either. It just wanted to occupy Zhou Qing's body.
Despicable!
