genetic catastrophe

"Don't be careless, I feel like this place is not as peaceful as it seems..."

Zhao Dong reminded him, and then the ancient sword under his feet accelerated and flew straight towards the center of Chizhou.

But before he could move forward much, the yellow sand ground below suddenly shook, and huge red figures broke through the quicksand, blocking their way like giant pillars holding up the sky!

Zhao Dong stopped suddenly and controlled the ancient sword to hang in mid-air. Xia Xiaodie behind him was staggered by the huge inertia and hit his back directly.

But before she could complain, she was stunned by the sight in front of her!

"What is this?"

Xia Xiaodie's pupils shrank and her breathing became a little faster. She had been refining alchemy in the Alchemy Palace for many years, and she had never seen such a terrifying battle before, and she was immediately shocked!

Zhao Dong frowned and took a look at the red monsters in front of him, and his expression suddenly became strange. These guys looked like they had neither the characteristics of beasts nor insects, as if they were completely made of red sand.

Although they are formed, you can feel the soul power contained in their columnar bodies!

"I haven't seen it, but he probably didn't come to say hello to us..."

Zhao Dong raised his hand and punched out, a huge flame fist mark cut through the void and hit those red sand monsters directly!

Boom!

With a thunderous explosion, the bodies of these red sand monsters exploded, leaving only half of them connected to the sea of ​​sand below!

"Dead?"

"It seems like it just looks scary, but in fact it's just like that. Compared with the monsters in Yunzhou, it's far behind..."

Xia Xiaodie muttered lightly. Although she was shocked by the power of Zhao Dong's punch just now, she was more reassured. The strength of those red sand monsters was definitely not weak, but even so, they were still

She couldn't withstand Zhao Dong's punch, so as long as she followed Zhao Dong closely, at least her personal safety would not be threatened.

However, Zhao Dong still kept his sword hanging in the air without moving, his brows became more and more frowned, and he said in a deep voice: "They are not dead, and even the punch just now did not hurt them!"

"Have you felt it? The power contained in the bodies of these red sand monsters is very strange!"

Xia Xiaodie was startled, then shook her head: "I didn't feel it, what's wrong?"

Zhao Dong glanced at Xia Xiaodie, and then sighed helplessly: "Just think I didn't ask..."

"What's your attitude? I don't know what's wrong. I'm not good at fighting!"

Xia Xiaodie was immediately unhappy and wanted to grab Zhao Dong and ask him clearly.

At this time, Huo Ling'er on the side suddenly said: "You can feel that the power in their bodies is very chaotic. It seems that a large number of soul fragments have been fused with the power of the fire element, forming an extremely chaotic power form."

Zhao Dong smiled, nodded and said: "Yes, they have no consciousness, or even instincts. They will suddenly appear and block our way, probably because our appearance disrupts the flow of power in this area, so

Only then will these guys be alarmed."

With that said, Zhao Dong casually took out a long-abandoned technological weapon and threw it towards the red sand monsters with only half of their bodies left!

In an instant, a large amount of red sand poured out from the sections of the monsters' bodies, turning into countless tentacles to wrap around them. Then under the terrifying high temperature and pressure, the originally extremely hard metal was instantly crushed into

A grain of red sand became part of those monsters!

"This kind of pressure and high temperature is not easy to reproduce with the technology I currently have. It seems that we are in the right place. The road behind these red sand monsters is definitely leading to the secret ruins here!"

Just when Zhao Dong's thoughts were whirling, those red sand monsters had re-condensed their bodies.

And this new body is not only larger, but there is even a bit of metallic luster flowing on its surface, as if it has swallowed the weapon that Zhao Dong just threw over, and imitated the properties of the metal elements in it!

"Here, what should I do?"

"This thing seems to be impossible to kill!"

Xia Xiaodie looked at Zhao Dong with a solemn look in her eyes.

Zhao Dong waved his hand disapprovingly and looked at these red sand monsters with great interest. For him, an opponent of this level could be completely destroyed by raising his hand, but how he swallowed these things and imitated them

He is very interested in the properties of metal materials in weapons. If he can catch one and take it away, it may greatly improve the technology he has in hand!

"Hey, you are talking!"

Xia Xiaodie seemed a little impatient and urged her several times.

Huo Ling'er on the side glanced at her lightly and said, "Brother Zhao will naturally have a way. Sister Xiaodie just watch and it will be fine. Don't rush him."

"You girl..."

"All right!"

Xia Xiaodie was scolded by Huo Ling'er, but she had nothing to refute. After all, without the cloak Zhao Dong gave her to isolate the heat from the outside world, she wouldn't even be able to reach here, let alone go deeper.

Zhao Dong observed for a while, and suddenly raised his hand and aimed at the red sand monsters. Then a dark red fire pillar broke through the sand and rose into the sky, directly swallowing the red sand monsters!

When the fire light dissipated, everything around him had returned to calm, except for a cluster of dark red flames hanging in the air, burning continuously and quietly.

This is exactly what Zhao Dong used his own flames to confine in the fire elemental power and soul fragments mixed in the sand after burning all the gravel. All he had to do later was to hand these things over to Yang Ni for study.

"Okay, let's move on, there's nothing useful here..."

Zhao Dong reminded him, then put away the flames, and then Yu Jian took Xia Xiaodie and Huo Ling'er to move forward.

As the distance deepened, a blush began to appear on Huo Ling'er's cheeks, but this was not caused by the abnormal high temperature here, but because the surrounding fire elemental power was pouring into her body uncontrollably.

The power in her body was almost saturated!

Under this situation, she had no way to actively expel the excess power from her body, and could only allow that power to corrode her body.

However, it seems that only Huo Ling'er has encountered this situation. Xia Xiaodie on the side does not have this problem at all. I don't know if it is because of Huo Ling'er's practice or because she has some special physique that attracts people around her.

Fire elemental power.

Zhao Dong could naturally feel Huo Ling'er's physical condition, and then stopped, frowning and asked: "Can you still hold on?"

Huo Ling'er's face was slightly red. She bit her lip and whispered: "No, it's okay... I'm just a little unwilling to admit defeat. I can persist, Brother Zhao, let's move on."

Seeing Huo Ling'er's stubborn look, Xia Xiaodie snorted and reminded: "I advise you not to hold on any longer. If you continue to hold on in this situation, you will explode and die.

"

Zhao Dong glanced at Xia Xiaodie, then looked at Huo Ling'er, and said in a deep voice: "As long as you find a way to drain the excess power out of the body, it should be fine. How can I help you?"

When asked by Zhao Dong, Huo Ling'er's cheeks turned redder, she opened her mouth and said in an almost inaudible voice: "The previous secret method, if it is that one, may be able to solve this problem."

"Well……"

Hearing Huo Ling'er's answer, Zhao Dong's expression suddenly became a little unnatural. Xia Xiaodie, who had been staring at Zhao Dong next to him, saw the problem and suddenly asked: "What secret method, you...you two are

Didn’t something happen?”

Huo Ling'er lowered her head and did not answer, but her reaction had already made it clear that what she and Zhao Dong saw had indeed happened.

Zhao Dong glanced at Xia Xiaodie with a serious expression and reminded: "Now is not the time to care about this, and what happens to me and her doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"

"You!!"

"snort……"

Xia Xiaodie snorted coldly and looked away.

Zhao Dong ignored her and cooperated with Huo Ling'er to practice the secret method again, absorbing all the fire power in her body into his own body, which alleviated the saturation of power in her body.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao..."

"But you sucked all the power in my body into your own body, can your body withstand it?"

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "Don't worry, this little flame is like drinking a glass of water to me, there won't be any burden."
