  Chapter 614 Discovery【Additional 72 days, ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass】

   After a while, the figures paused again, and two forked roads appeared in front of them.

   "Right!" Li Shifan said without waiting for Zhang Deming to ask this time.

  When Zhang Deming heard the words, he kept moving to the right.

  With the opening of the first fork, it seems that the switch has been turned on, and there are continuous forks. Zhang Deming gradually discovered that there seemed to be an extremely developed pipeline network underneath.

  The various openings are even extremely likely to be connected, forming a network-like maze of pipes. The cave walls became smoother and smoother, and gradually, mucous-like coverings appeared on the cave walls.

  But the Bat Demon that I saw before did not appear again, not a single one.

   "Zi Liu..."

  Suddenly, there was a very different creeping sound, and the three people who were on full alert stopped at the same time. The blisters on Qu Qingxian's body spread, covering the three of them directly, and the smoke in front of Zhang Deming also spread, filling the three of them.

  Li Shifan held the sword, and after seeing the reaction of the two, he stopped his movements. He was not good at other methods, so he did not rashly make a fool of himself.

   "Zi Liu..."

  In front of them, the cave was originally divided into three parts and became a four-way intersection.

  The three of them were on alert, and found that the entrance on the far right of the cave expanded slightly. Accompanied by extremely regular creeping, the intersection on the far right suddenly expanded rapidly.

   While the three were horrified, a mollusk much larger than the cave wriggled out of it.

  The other party looked like a huge earthworm, its body was much bigger than the hole, and it was its wriggling that made the hole bigger.

  After it drilled out of the hole on the right, it didn't seem to find the three hidden people, and immediately drilled into the leftmost passage.

  As it penetrated, the smooth hole, like an intestine, slightly expanded and enlarged, allowing the mollusk to pass through like a phagocytosis.

  The opponent squirmed, and quickly disappeared in front of his eyes. And the four-forked intersection in front of them, which was originally divided into three, also became a crossroad because of the shuttle of this thing.

   As the openings on both sides shrank slightly, they returned to normal size in a moment. The orientation of the entrance of the cave has not changed back to the original, and the layout of the intersection has been maintained.

   "What kind of Five Elements monster was that just now?" Qu Qingxian swallowed and said after the monster left for a long time.

  Li Shifan shook his head and said: "I don't know, what I'm more worried about is that we really seem to have entered some intestinal tract!"

   While speaking, he reached out and poked the cave. The walls of the cave here shrink slightly, and the feeling from it is obviously no longer a cave.

  ‘Yeah, it’s not just like a gut, it’s also like a roundworm just now! '

  Zhang Deming's complexion was also a little dark. This kind of cave and the ghost thing just now reminded him of some bad experiences.

   "You'd better pray that there are really good things in it, otherwise, I will let you know what a senior brother is!" Zhang Deming suddenly turned his head to look at Li Shifan, and said so.

  Li Shifan froze, completely caught off guard by this unexpected threat.

   "Why?" He was stunned for a moment before replying.

  Zhang Deming glanced at him, turned around and continued to move forward, without looking back, he said: "Because I am your senior brother!"

  Qu Qingxian: "..."

  Li Shifan: "..."

  The three continued to move forward. After discovering the wriggling mollusk, the three found that the cave had changed significantly again.

  The spikes above the cave didn't disappear, but turned into fleshy tentacles. The falling liquid also changed from being as clear as water to gradually turning red, slowly approaching **** water.

  If rocky caves were counted at first, and then stiffened intestines of dead organisms were counted, today they are intestines of living organisms.

  In terms of image description, it is equivalent to a biological body whose surface has been completely fossilized, but the body is still active. The three of Zhang Deming and the others have almost gone through the entire process from the initial fossil cave to the activation of the intestinal tract.

   And the thing just now, like an internal parasite, also represents an activation stage of the cave. If Zhang Deming didn't feel the obvious living body and consciousness in the whole cave, he would have turned around and left.

   "How long?" Zhang Deming couldn't help frowning and asked after two more sudden worm shuttles.

  Because he didn't know if his perception was too sensitive and suspicious when he was stimulated here, he always felt that there was something wrong with the parasite-like monsters that shuttled around, but because he didn't dare to touch it rashly, he didn't know why it felt wrong.

   "Soon!" Li Shifan replied with a serious expression.

   "That's what you said in the last hole!"

  Qu Qingxian didn't even care about whether he was a big boss or not. Even though his black dragon became more and more active, and the strange aura around him was more and more helpful to his cultivation, he still wanted to leave early.

  Without it, he could clearly feel that his vest was getting cold!

  Li Shifan paused, and said: "The farthest is only one or two holes, and I can already clearly feel this call!"

  Zhang Deming glanced at him and said, "Then speed up!"

  The three of them looked at each other, and no longer cautiously groped forward, but sensed the full opening, and endured the feeling of trepidation, and suddenly accelerated forward.

  After crossing another fork in the road, the three of them paused at the same speed. Not far ahead, it seemed that they had reached the end, and a clearly visible hole appeared not far away.

   The three of them looked at each other, slowed down, fully opened the concealment technique, and touched it carefully.

  ······

   Quietly came to the entrance of the cave, and his vision suddenly disappeared.

   They seem to be in mid-air at this moment, a huge rather regular hemispherical dome covering the entire area.

  On the dome, there are densely packed holes of different sizes. The cave where Zhang Deming and the others are located is located in the upper middle layer of the hemispherical dome, which looks like the top.

   So much so that their hole has begun to **** slightly downward.

  Looking down, there is a huge pool of mucus, the liquid is like a paste, and the color is black and red, which is brighter than the seabed that Zhang Deming saw before.

  At this moment, the entire liquid, like heated asphalt, is constantly bubbling while tumbling. At the same time, a bit of poisonous miasma-like breath rose up.

  This space is very huge. It is better to say it is a lake than a pool.

  At the bottom of the cave wall, along the shore of the lake, there are three huge caves, like a huge semicircular arch, standing in three directions on the edge of the lake, showing a triangle shape.

  Looking at the appearance of these arches, thinking about the four forks at the entrance just now, it is very likely that there are more than one dome chamber, there should be four, at least two or more. Because in one of the huge arches, there are countless bat demons moving at this moment.

   Well, calling them bat monsters here is actually a bit inappropriate. They already have three parts of the Shura clan, and they are much more advanced than the ones at the entrance of the cave. But judging by its appearance, it still has no wisdom.

   It's just that it's no longer as extreme and brainless as outside. The bat monsters here began to look like worker bees, constantly carrying giant eggs one after another.

  The bat demon was originally only the size of a normal person, and the giant eggs they carried were as tall as one person, so they were all carried in groups of two and two, and carried into the slime pool.

   Then carefully move from the edge to the center. At this moment, the edge of the pool near the arch area has already been lined up by giant eggs.

  Although the giant egg is big, it did not sink into the viscous pool, but quietly floated on the pool, with only about half of the egg body soaked in liquid.

   Therefore, looking around, the densely packed white giant eggs are extremely spectacular. This work has apparently been going on for quite some time.

  Because of the most edge position, giant eggs have begun to burst from time to time, but nothing emerged from the eggs, as if the eggs were all empty.

   And the worker bee-like bat demon doesn't care, or doesn't have the wisdom to care at all. They kept carrying the giant eggs and put them side by side into the pool.

  Whenever a giant egg shakes on the edge and breaks inexplicably, they will immediately move a new egg to fill it up. If there is no space, they will continue to line up in the center. Extremely regular, like a terminal patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

  The liquid in the pool, the more viscous and dark red it is at the edge, the brighter the color is at the center, and the faster it rolls. The line of sight crosses the dome area on the edge of the pool and comes to the very center of the slime lake.

  The liquid here is as bright red as fresh blood. Although it is still a little viscous, it is already like plasma.

  The most attractive thing is that there are two objects floating in the center of the pool at the moment. A bead of blood, a short stick of unknown origin.

  At this moment, the movement of the blood beads is a bit loud, and there are countless red streamers flowing around the body. During the scrolling, most of them poured into the blood pool.

   And all the changes in the blood pool seem to be because of these streamers. Every time a streamer is incorporated, there will be more bright blood; around the pool, the black-red paste-like liquid that looks like asphalt will be less.

   It seems that the floating blood bead is activating the entire pool, and the pool is hatching hollow monster eggs with nothing in them.

  Look at the speed at which the blood beads transform the pool, as well as the volume of plasma in the center of the pool, which has been reduced by half. This bead has been working here for thousands of years if not ten thousand years.

   So much so that the blood beads have been consumed to the size of only two peanuts. Although I don't know the original volume, it's definitely more than just the point in front of me.

  The addition of giant eggs may not be long, otherwise, with the diligence of these monsters, the entire slime lake should have been filled long ago.

   Zhang Deming looked at the blood bead, his brows were slightly frowned, and he felt a familiar smell.

this is······

   While he was thinking, he flipped his hands and found a jade box, which contained an empty thin-mouthed jade bottle. It was obtained from the secret door of the Longmen Trial. It was originally filled with some liquid, but the jade bottle was empty later.

  Zhang Deming sensed it carefully for a moment, and his eyes flashed brightly. If he hadn't misunderstood, the jade bottle was originally filled with the blood bead, the so-called 'ancestral blood' in the inheritance of the Zhang Family God Master? .

  Zhang Deming's actions attracted Qu Qingxian's attention. He looked at the jade bottle that suddenly appeared in Zhang Deming's hand, and then at the pool of blood in the center, his eyes also shimmered.

  Li Shifan had no time to pay attention to the two of them at all. All his attention was attracted by the palm-length stick next to the blood drop in the center of the pool.

  The shape of the short stick is a bit strange. It is slightly smaller at both ends and slightly larger in the middle. It presents a flat oval shape, which can be held with one hand.

   It looks like a part of something, but it is so damaged that the body style cannot be seen at all.

   Li Shifan looked at the short stick, as if in a daze, and his whole mind was attracted by it. Under such a strange environment, he can be in such a state, which shows how strong the attraction or call of the short stick is to him.

   "Come back to your senses!" Zhang Deming touched the other party lightly, and whispered through the voice transmission.

  Li Shifan turned his head in a daze, and after looking at Zhang Deming, his eyes gradually recovered.

   For a moment, when he woke up, his eyes were full of light, and he looked at the thing again, but this time he was no longer dull. But his eyes were shining, and his expression was burning like fire.

  Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan, then turned his head to look at the blood beads in the distance, subconsciously clenched the jade bottle with his right hand, and whispered through voice transmission: "Want to do it?"

  Li Shifan nodded, then turned his head to look at Zhang Deming and Qu Qingxian, and said: "Brother, why don't you and Shuilong retreat first, I will get that stick no matter how dangerous it is, it seems to be related to my way."

  Zhang Deming raised the jade bottle in his hand, and said: "Just in time, I also found something lost by my family!"

  Qu Qingxian had a genuine expression, Li Shifan paused, sensed the jade bottle, and said dumbly: "Brother, are you here to find the blood-colored bead?"

  Zhang Deming nodded, then shook his head again, and said: "It's not counted, it can only be counted incidentally, my task is mainly to investigate this world."

  Li Shifan nodded, and then the two looked at Qu Qingxian in a tacit understanding.

Under the eyes of the two, Qu Qingxian pondered for a moment, and said: "Let me withdraw first, my cultivation level can only hinder you. The following situation is obviously beyond my control. "

  Zhang Deming nodded, and said: "Alright, you go out and guard the entrance of the cave, and be ready to meet our retreat at any time!"

  Qu Qingxian nodded, bowed to the two, turned around resolutely, and flew outside.

  Actually, this time he didn't get nothing at all. Along the way, he absorbed a lot of strange auras from the cave. Judging by the activity and firmness of the black dragon on his body, it definitely benefited him a lot.

  ······

   After watching Qu Qingxian leave, the two looked at each other, and Li Shifan said, "Let's rush over in a blitzkrieg, or try our luck and touch?"

  Zhang Deming thought for a moment, and said: "Wait for me, I will use a secret method!"

   Immediately, under Li Shifan's puzzled gaze, Zhang Deming closed his eyes. Looking at the energy in the warehouse, half a year of energy storage has gained more than 500 points of luck and more than 40 merits.

  Adding the remaining before, now the warehouse energy: merit: 175.2, luck: 1108.2, karma: 30.7.

   Look at the mounted spell list again: Stealth Lv4 (0/100)

  Although it is said that he should keep more than 800 luck for backup, but the year of the breakthrough is not yet known, so there is nothing wrong with exceeding the standard.
