Chapter 547 Disappeared
Clang!
A sound of knife sounded, and the knife light flashed. A sand-tailed scorpion in the formation, which was motionless like a dead object, was split into two at the right time under the effect of this knife light.
The body structure of the sand-tailed scorpion was also reflected in Chu Mu's eyes through this split demon body.
Since entering the Vast Sea Xiuxian World, whether it is to study the bloodline magical power, bloodline genealogy, or to have a deeper understanding of the Vast Sea Xiuxian World, a cultivation system with demons as the core.
The demon beasts he has dissected and studied, from the first level to the third level, are almost countless.
Although he has only been in this strange desert sea for a few days, the number of sand-tailed scorpions that have fallen in his hands is undoubtedly countless.
At least, from his understanding, this sand-tailed scorpion is undoubtedly a living being.
It has a sea of consciousness, meridians, blood, dantian, flesh and blood...
The sand-tailed scorpion has all the characteristics of all living beings.
As for puppets, even if they are flesh puppets, or even genuine flesh demon puppets, even if there is no abnormality on the outside, their internal structure will certainly be able to detect extremely clear abnormalities.
After all, the power of living beings comes from practice, from the plunder and refinement of the energy of heaven and earth, and from the great power gathered in themselves.
And the source of power for dead things like puppets is obviously not from self-cultivation, but from spirit stones and external energy. To transform these external energies into the power of puppets, a corresponding system is necessary.
For example, formation forbidden inscriptions, such as flesh demon patterns...
These must be clear in the puppet's interior and cannot be concealed.
Unless, this puppet system is not within his cognition, or in other words, its mystery has exceeded his imagination.
But the problem is... such endless sand-tailed scorpions...
All of them are puppets, which seems unrealistic...
Chu Mu pursed his lips and looked up at the sky. Then, as if he thought of something, he laughed at himself.
In the final analysis, this is a good habit, but to some extent, it seems to be the source of trouble.
If it were an ordinary cultivator in his situation, he would have been concentrating on escaping, and would not have cared about these abnormalities.
Even if he noticed something, he would probably put it aside for the time being and escape first. He would not have the energy and cognition to notice it, or even use it for his own benefit.
It is even more impossible for him to be like him, for these abnormalities, and even evolve to the current... gamble with his life!
"Forget it..."
After pondering for a long time, Chu Mu exhaled a long breath, and his eyes became firm.
He raised his hand and wiped it, and the last sand-tailed scorpion that turned into a dead thing instantly shattered.
Then, he looked outside the formation again, and as his mind moved, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Formation opened a crack several feet long again.
Outside the formation, the surging tide of sand-tailed scorpions, as if they had found a place to pour out when the crack appeared, rushed into the formation one after another.
"Suppress!"
As if speaking the will of heaven, Chu Mu shouted softly, and red chains intertwined and spread. In just a moment, dozens of sand-tailed scorpions that had entered the formation were instantly imprisoned and suppressed.
At the same time, the cracks in the formation healed, and Chu Mu took out a pill and swallowed it. His pale face seemed to have become a little more rosy.
At this time, he looked at the dozens of sand-tailed scorpions that were imprisoned again in the formation.
There is no doubt that with the healing of the cracks in the formation, the connection between these dozens of sand-tailed scorpions and the existence behind the scenes has been completely cut off by the formation.
At the moment, although these dozens of sand-tailed scorpions are still alive and well, judging from the weirdness just now, it will not take long before they will slowly lose their souls like the previous sand-tailed scorpions, and eventually turn into a dead object similar to the silent seal.
The key to the refining of the Qitian Pill is to "kill alive".
That is to say, the spirit must be alive to be used as the spiritual material for refining the Qitian Pill.
However, after what happened just now, Chu Mu was not sure whether the Qitian Pill could be refined.
After all, the Qitian Pill's ability to deceive the world is to melt the spirit of a living being into a pill.
In a sense, when a cultivator takes this pill, it is even equivalent to "taking over the body"!
However, unlike taking over the body in the usual sense, the initiative of the two is different.
Taking over the body is to annihilate the other party's spirit and soul and forcibly take over the other party's body, while the Qitian Pill forcibly refines the pill transformed from the other party's spirit and soul, so that it has the spirit and soul of the refined person, so as to achieve the effect of being real and deceiving the world.
And the premise of all this is naturally a living creature, not a dead thing like a puppet.
Dead things obviously cannot have spirit...
And the sand-tailed scorpion in front of him...
Is it a living being? Or a dead thing?
Chu Mu was not sure.
After a little hesitation, a touch of true fire reappeared.
Chu Mu did not hesitate too much. If possible, he would rather believe what the jade slip recorded that the endless sand-tailed scorpions were just a test.
A test for the cultivators who entered the cave ruins.
In this way, these weirdnesses seemed to be barely understandable.
After all, if it was a test, the word "test" could undoubtedly explain a lot of things.
For a test, it must not be a dead end. Nine deaths, there should be one life.
"Nine deaths and one life..."
Chu Mu seemed to understand something and suddenly looked up at the sky.
The sun was high in the sky, nine days were full, and the eternal night fell, nine hours.
In the world of immortal cultivation, nine is also the number of extremes.
Nine is also the supreme.
In the world of immortal cultivation, there is even a legend of nine transformations to become an immortal.
Does this nine have a deep meaning here?
Chu Mu's eyes moved slightly, and as his thoughts flowed, the true fire burned, and a silver-white sand-tailed scorpion was also stained with a bit of red.
As time passed, with a nearly desperate wailing sound, this silver-white sand-tailed scorpion eventually turned into a scarlet pill.
The true fire had not been extinguished. Chu Mu raised his hand and wiped it. Several sand-tailed scorpions that had turned into dead things were swept by the true fire one after another. Under the terrifying high temperature, the bodies of the monsters were instantly melted into blood and qi. Finally, under Chu Mu's control, the blood and qi evolved into a sand-tailed scorpion body about ten feet in size.
The whole body of the sand-tailed scorpion was almost lifelike, and there was almost no difference from the sand-tailed scorpion that had been refined into the sky-defying pill.
Until then, the red fire that was lingering in front of Chu Mu finally slowly dissipated.
Chu Mu raised his hand and flicked it, and the round bead with brilliant silver light sank into the center of the eyebrows of the sand-tailed scorpion. As the silver light bloomed, a vague connection seemed to be born.
At this time, if you use your spiritual sense to perceive, you will find that this vague connection is very similar to the connection between these sand-tailed scorpions and the unknown existence behind the scenes.
The only difference is that this simulated connection lacks some of the breath of the sand-tailed scorpion.
That is, the identity mark of the sand-tailed scorpion.
Chu Mu's mind moved, and the body of the artificial sand-tailed scorpion automatically cracked a foot-long crack.
And there happened to be a space for a person in it, which could accommodate a person.
Chu Mu raised his hand and wiped it, and the Qitian Pill floated between his palms.
The pill was scarlet red, and the violent aura of the demon beast was very clear.
This Qitian Pill was no different from the Qitian Pills he had refined before, in any way.
From this point of view, this strange sand-tailed scorpion seemed to be a living being without a doubt.
Chu Mu looked at it for a moment, then moved his eyes slightly and looked around. The tide of sand-tailed scorpions was still surging, and there was no difference from when he first came here and the bloody killings he had done in the past few days.
Looking around, every sand-tailed scorpion was like a cold killing machine, with a clear aura of living beings, but no emotional fluctuations belonging to living beings could be seen.
Cold and indifferent.
The towering ancient tower stood, and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Formation suppressed it. Even if they were sent to death one after another, there was no trace of retreat or fear.
Like a living being... but not a living being...
Chu Mu looked up at the sky. The connection in the dark eventually led to this strange sky.
It was as if the legendary Sand-tailed Scorpion Mother was above the sky, overlooking everything in the world and staring at him, an outside invader, indifferently.
It... also had no emotional fluctuations. Even whether it was the Sand-tailed Scorpion Mother was still an extremely uncertain thing.
"Trial..."
Chu Mu murmured softly, his slightly hesitant eyes seemed to slowly become firm.
He rolled up his sleeves, and the scarlet pill hanging in his palm sank into his mouth. When the pill entered his stomach and the medicinal power burst out, Chu Mu took a step forward and sank into the belly of the Sand-tailed Scorpion.
The cracks shrank and healed slowly, visible to the naked eye.
In the end, a silver-white Sand-tailed Scorpion stood majestically in this formation.
At the same time, the towering Nine Dragons Prison Tower outside, with a burst of red light rippling, the towering ancient tower, which was tens of feet high, quickly shrank and circled. In just a few breaths, the ancient tower turned into a ray of red light and disappeared into the Divine Fire Formation.
In the vast desert sea, among the endless beast tides, there was no such Nine Dragons Divine Fire Formation standing here.
However, without the Nine Dragons Prison Tower as the core of the formation, the power of this Nine Dragons Divine Fire Tower also dropped by several levels, and the previous horror of annihilating everything was completely gone.
The surging tide of sand-tailed scorpions came one after another, and only a very small part was refined and annihilated by the formation. More of them were waving their claws, and the endless offensive fell on this towering formation one after another.
In just a few breaths, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Formation, which had stood here for a few days, like a world-destroying mill, annihilated countless sand-tailed scorpions, and was visibly crumbling.
Just as the formation was about to break, the dimming red suddenly became brighter, almost blindingly bright, and in just a moment, it completely infected the sky.
Countless sand-tailed scorpions that rushed forward one after another were also annihilated by this sudden explosion.
Then, the red light in the sky spread rapidly to the surrounding area, from covering a hundred feet in radius to two hundred feet, three hundred feet...
It expanded like a puff of air!
Under this expansion, the red fire, which was originally hot and terrifying, also obviously had a few more violent breaths.
When this expansion reached a critical point, the expanding and spreading red light seemed to tremble suddenly, and then...
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The roar went straight into the sky!
This Nine Dragons Divine Fire Formation actually exploded.
The red fire that expanded like a puff of air rose up like a giant fireball!
The sky was filled with fire rain, and the area within a few miles was all red and blazing. The yellow sand melted and turned into almost dazzling crystals. The countless sand-tailed scorpions that came one after another were instantly annihilated, turning into ashes and merging with the melted sand.
Blood, scorching, fire rain...
A terrifying scene of hell on earth was staged in this desert sea.
And in the center of the formation, where the fireball burst, except for a bottomless pit that eroded hundreds of feet in radius, Chu Mu, who had been killed by countless sand-tailed scorpions, had disappeared...
Where he went...
