Shan Hai Jing: Evolution from Mantis

The desert is full of scarlet and golden mantises.

The desert.

"Gulu..."

"Let me go..."

Taen looked at the mantis with scarlet and golden eyes in front of him, swallowing his saliva, retreating in fear and begging.

He glanced at a mutilated corpse lying on the desert not far away, letting the blood drip and staining the sand under him.

The priest who came here is dead!

Under the terrifying knife light, it was like a fragile piece of thin paper, easily killed, without any resistance!

In the past, Tarn would never believe it.

That was the priest!

Perhaps other creatures don't know what a priest is, but as a tribal creature living in the desert, he knows very well how powerful a priest is!

It was a powerful civilization that rose in the last era after absorbing the ancient remaining power of the desert empire. Even if there was only one priest here, it had unparalleled strength.

But at this moment, he died here.

He could imagine that the priest tribe in the desert would be extremely angry. This was a provocation to a powerful civilization!

He might also be buried with it.

He didn't want to die, so he wanted to escape, but now, the mantis was still there, and he could only pray that the mantis in front of him would let him go.

However, the mantis' eyes were full of madness, and it pressed forward step by step.

A cold word was slowly uttered.

"Die!"

When the voice fell, the mantis knife swung, and a terrible slash instantly broke out, and wherever it passed, it directly split the desert in front of it.

"No!"

Tahn's eyes widened, he roared in reluctance, and turned around without hesitation to escape, but the speed of the slash was beyond his imagination. The moment he turned around, it not only split the desert, but also swallowed him.

His fragile body, under the terrifying slash, could not even turn into a wreckage, but was directly annihilated!

Thunderclouds gathered in this area.

Along with the slash, there were also thousands of thunders falling, violently bombarding this area, exuding a palpitating breath.

The sacred and crazy breath in Su Chen's pupils faded, his pupils contracted, and he fell to the ground with a bang. While gasping for breath, he hurriedly took out the Hundred Poison Water and poured it into his mouth one mouthful after another.

After drinking a large bucket of Hundred Poison Water into his stomach and restoring his physical strength, Su Chen's face looked a little better.

But feeling his weak body, Su Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. "The effect of the reverse scale is good, but the side effects are really..."

He only used it once, but he felt that his strength dropped by half in the next day.

"Fortunately, it will not affect tomorrow's trip to the rift world."

Su Chen murmured, feeling weak and uncomfortable, but he would be fully recovered by tomorrow, so there was no need to worry.

Although his strength dropped by half, as long as he was not injured, he could still roam the desert with half of his strength if he was more cautious.

"The next step is to leave here quickly."

Su Chen looked at the remains of the sacrificer in the distance, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.

This enemy is the strongest enemy he has ever encountered.

"The power to control space..."

It's a terrible civilization!

Fortunately, the spatial power of this sacrificer is not strong, just like a beginner, the spatial power he controls and uses is very fragile.

Of course, even so, ordinary creatures can hardly resist it. Only by relying on their own powerful extraordinary power and the combination of two sword intentions can they crush it.

This shows how powerful the power of space is.

If the power of space he controls is a little stronger, perhaps he will really die here today.

More intuitively and importantly, the words said by the priest before, although his will was crazy after he used the reverse scale, his consciousness was not asleep, and he still existed, and he clearly heard every word said by the priest.

"This civilization..."

"It has the ability to imprison players!"

Su Chen's eyes were solemn.

Sure enough, in the Shanhaijing, only some tribes were encountered in the past, and civilizations all had a strong foundation, and even players with the ability to resurrect had ways to deal with them.

Is it all civilizations?

Or just the priest civilization?

Su Chen's eyes flickered, and he stood up with thought and came to Yunkong's body. With a thought, he devoured it with the touch of devouring.

[Evolution Points +

20. 】

[Evolution points +20. 】

[Evolution points +20. 】

[......]

"So many?"

When he finished swallowing, Su Chen couldn't help but look at the evolution points he got.

There were a full two hundred and fifty points.

Far more than the Lingxu beast he had encountered before.

Because of the difference in strength?

Or other aspects?

Su Chen shook his head and stopped thinking. Instead, he looked at the corpse with only a piece of skin left, one of which was bulging.

This is a treasure.

Su Chen decisively swung the mantis knife and directly cut the skin in front of him. A purple-blue glow emanated.

It was a drop of blood.

Blood emitting a purple-blue halo!

Su Chen's eyes flickered, and the corresponding information appeared directly in his mind.

[A drop of blood from the body of the sacrificer. The sacrificer is a spirit in the void, and there is no physical object. But when it merges with life, it will become the sacrificer and be contracted by the civilization called the sacrificer, allowing it to obtain powerful spatial power. This drop of blood contains part of the power of the sacrificer. 】

"It is indeed the blood of the sacrificer."

Seeing this introduction, Su Chen was excited.

Containing the power of the sacrificer, isn't that the power of space?

Hiss, this is equivalent to a material with spatial attributes.

In terms of this attribute, the preciousness of this material is self-evident.

Although he does not pursue the power of space, after seeing the power of space, even Su Chen has to admit that he must try his best to obtain a way to deal with this power.

Otherwise it is easy to fall.

This power is too strong. Even a wisp of fragile spatial power requires other creatures to use their full strength to shatter it.

With a thought, Su Chen directly put it into his backpack, then looked around, with a strong wind around him, and left this place decisively.

He did not continue to move forward in the direction of the temple, but went straight to the nest of the desert mantis.

He killed a priest, who was a visitor from a powerful civilization, and perhaps the other party would have other pursuers coming.

From the conversation just now, Su Chen knew that the other party was coming for him and would definitely not give up easily. In order to prevent accidents, he needed to take all the desert mantises away first.

At that time, he would be able to travel freely in the desert without any worries.

What Su Chen did not know was that not long after he left this place.

A space crack was torn out.

Two priests in robes walked out of the crack, came here, and saw the remains of Yunkong's body.

"Swallowed."

"It is indeed the method of aliens."

"Yun Kong's strength is not the best in our tribe, but it is not bad. He died at the hands of aliens in this period of time. I am afraid he met a strong alien."

"In the early era, such aliens must be the existence of will."

"He must still be in the desert. Let all the warriors in the tribe go out to look for him. In addition, notify the main city and ask them to send an envoy here."

"Well, there is an envoy coming. As long as he still exists in this desert, we will definitely find him."

"An alien carrying will is much more useful than ordinary aliens, huh?"

As he was talking, a priest frowned slightly, looked at the desert in front of him, and a staff appeared in his hand and waved it gently. The sand was separated by an invisible force, and two corpses floated in front of him.

"Is this... a creature from the desert tribe?"

"It just died not long ago, perhaps it also died at the hands of that alien."

"I just happened to go to the desert tribe, take it with you, because of their news, we lost a descendant, this may not be their fault, but they have to pay the price for it."

"It should be so."

The priest nodded slightly, and with a thought, the two corpses escaped into space.

Then, another priest took the remains of Yunkong, and the two tore open the crack again and left this place.

......

Desert mantis nest.

Su Chen's speed was very fast, and he arrived outside the nest at full speed in a short time.

After he entered the nest, he saw the followers who had returned.

"King!"

"We did not disappoint you, all the creatures of the poison master tribe were killed!"

"These are their corpses."

"Also, these are all the resources we saw in the poison master tribe, and they have all been brought back and presented to you."

Seeing Su Chen, the followers were excited.

Feng and Chen took the initiative to come out, with a fiery look in their eyes, and took out the spoils of this trip.

Suddenly, corpses and resources were on both sides.

The piled up into two small hills.

"Not bad... huh?"

When Su Chen was about to praise his followers, he suddenly felt something and turned his head to look at the resources brought back from the poison master tribe.

In it, he actually felt a trace of joy.

Without hesitation, Su Chen thought, and a strong wind flew over and separated all the resources.

Soon, one of the resources was wrapped in the strong wind and floated in front of him.

This is a skull of a creature. I don’t know what creature it came from. The skull is very big, like a car, and it exudes a palpitating breath.

It looks like murderous intent. If a weak-minded being sees this skull, he may fall into a killing environment, and eventually his reason will be swallowed up and become a puppet who only knows killing.

"This thing..."

Su Chen looked at the skull with joy.

If nothing unexpected happens, this skull is probably the material suitable for strengthening the part of his head.

I didn’t expect that the poison master tribe would bring me a surprise.

Sure enough, my previous guess was correct.

There are also good things in the poison master tribe.
