"What is this thing?"
Suddenly, an astonishing scene appeared. Countless blood vessels extended out from the hollow mountain. As the fluctuations rose, they rapidly fused with the black object. Following that, a layer of red light appeared on the black object, and it gradually disappeared. In less than ten seconds, everyone was dumbfounded by what they saw.
The five of them hovered not far from the black object and looked at it with their mouths agape.
After a while, Guo Shier swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "This thing is alive?"
Li Ran's expression was solemn. No one knew what he was thinking. Zhen Wuji and Hong Yuguang were whispering something. Both of their expressions were very solemn. Clearly, everything in front of them had exceeded their imagination.
They didn't dare to move. For a moment, the five of them were stunned in the air, not knowing what to do.
After a while, Guo Shier said, "We have to understand what this thing is first. Otherwise, we won't know where to start … First of all, I think this is a good thing, even if it's very evil. What do you think?"
Li Ran said, "I can't tell what it is, but … I feel that this thing shouldn't be from this world … It's a very strange feeling. It should be foreign …"
Guo Shier said in surprise, "From the great world?"
Zhen Wuji didn't know what a great world was. He asked curiously, "What do you mean? What great world? "Hong Yuguang and Hong Yuguang were also puzzled. Both of them had inquiring looks in their eyes.
Li Ran waved his hand and said, "Shier, you explain."
Guo Shier muttered, "You really know how to be lazy." However, he only muttered to himself. Then, he explained the concept of a macro world in detail. However, when he saw how confused the three of them were, he knew that it was useless. They could not accept such an explanation at all. He understood that if someone had told him about a micro world in his previous life, he would have thought that the person was an idiot and delusional.
Fortunately, this world itself was quite magical. Therefore, although Zhen Wuji and the others couldn't understand it, it didn't stop them from not accepting it.
Zhen Wuji said, "You mean … this thing didn't come from our continent?"
Guo Shi 'er snapped his fingers and said, "That's right, that's what I meant. I can't think of it either … What is this thing? It's not in my inherited memories at all. I believe that you have more inherited memories than me. Do you have any memories of this thing?"
Li Ran shook his head and said, "In this world … this is the first time I've seen it. It's not in my inherited memory, but … there seems to be something similar in my previous memory. Unfortunately … it's been too long. Many things are already blurred. I can't remember."
Guo Shi 'er knew that the so-called previous memories were the memories obtained from the host soul. He asked, "You can't remember anything at all?"
Li Ran smiled bitterly and said, "It should be related to blood … but I don't know. How could this thing come here? If this thing grows up, it should be extremely terrifying … I can instinctively feel fear for this thing. Even though I'm standing at the peak of this world, I still feel fear for it."
The five of them didn't dare to move or try to attack. Li Ran said, "Let's wait and see if there are any changes."
The blood vessels in the mouth of the mountain gradually thinned out. A moment later, the ripples began to increase. Guo Shier could even see circles of ripples spreading out from the surface of the black object. The ripples spread out and hit Li Ran's altar, but they were quickly bounced off. Li Ran said, "This thing is really evil."
Guo Shier was worried about the mutated beast at the foot of the mountain. He said, "If I had known … I wouldn't have come up. I can't fight it, and I can't leave …"
Li Ran said, "Don't rush. Let me think about it. This thing, the more I look at it, the more familiar it seems …"
Guo Shier said happily, "What did you think of?"
Li Ran said, "If you observe its changes more, you might be able to remember something."
The five of them hovered in the air and carefully observed the black thing. Guo Shier said, "This thing is so big. Its diameter must be at least one thousand meters." He always knew that his visual judgment was not good.
Zhen Wuji said, "One thousand meters, how can it be so small. Such a big one … its diameter must be at least three thousand meters."
The black thing was like a huge olive. It was pointed at both ends and wide in the middle. If one paid attention, they would find that this thing was rotating at an extremely slow speed.
The surface of the thing was uneven and black. From time to time, flashes of red light could be seen. It gave people an extremely fierce and bloody feeling. The faint roars coming from the foot of the mountain made people feel uneasy.
After a while, countless blood flew up from the mouth of the mountain. Li Ran observed carefully. He even shot out a Phantom Talisman and directly scooped up some of the blood.
Guo Shier asked curiously, "What is this?"
Li Ran said, "Blood essence, it is actually blood essence … Moreover, it is very pure, even purer than the blood essence we purified …" When the blood fell into his hand, it immediately turned into a blood essence bead, spinning in his palm.
Zhen Wuji could not hold back anymore. He also took some blood essence and condensed it into a blood essence bead. He held it in his hand and observed it. After a while, he said, "This thing can greatly increase one's vitality and temper the body. It is many times better than the blood essence beads purified from mutated beasts. I wonder how it was purified. This is the first time I have seen such pure blood essence."
Li Ran nodded, "That's right. Although this blood essence is not very useful to me, it is very useful to you guys. Especially Shier, it can increase his body tenfold. As for Zhen Wuji, it can also double his strength. In the future, it will be easier for him to surpass the ninth level of the Sacrificial Altar."
Guo Shier tried to collect the blood essence. He found that it was very easy for Li Ran and Zhen Wuji to collect the blood essence, but he was helpless. After working for half a day, he only collected a few blood essences. He could not even condense a blood essence bead. He was so angry that he used Gusirius's tentacles to collect the blood essence.
Unexpectedly, this move was a lucky hit. When the blood essence appeared again, Gusirius's tentacles danced crazily, condensing dozens of blood essences beads in an instant. His efficiency was even higher than Li Ran's.
As the five of them collected the blood essence with all their might, the black object started to vibrate, and more blood essences appeared below.
Guo Shier was surprised, "Eh, it actually knows that someone is stealing it?" A Handsome Old Man's head popped out, he said, "This thing is actually alive? Strange thing. Kid, speed up, snatch it! "
Not only Guo Shier increased his speed, but Li Ran and the others also increased their speed. Li Ran and Guo Shier had different ideas. He wanted to see the reaction of the black object, but Guo Shier just wanted to snatch the blood essence.
Gusirius was also secretly absorbing the blood essence. This kind of blood essence was also a great supplement to it, it could make its body more condensed.
Guo Shier and A Handsome Old Man kept secretly eating. The thing melted as soon as it reached their mouths. It had no taste, only a slight fragrance. When they swallowed it, they felt a warm current flowing into their bodies, it was very comfortable.
Li Ran and the others were also eating. They ate even more fiercely, stuffing handfuls of blood essence into their mouths.
After all, Guo Shier's level was the lowest. A dozen blood essences beads were already a bit unbearable. He immediately stopped and said, "This thing is quite delicious!" He began to feel the changes in his body. It was a feeling that he had not felt for a long time. It was the feeling when his body was strengthened by the Body Refining Talisman when he was young. It should be known that he was already a six-layer Altar professional. Every time he leveled up, his body would be strengthened. Other than leveling up, it was very difficult for him to strengthen his body again.
This blood essence bead actually strengthened his body rapidly. Moreover, it greatly increased the strength of his body. The benefits that came with it made Guo Shier's heart burst with joy. He could once again swallow a large number of soul beads. The strength of the body and the growth of the soul complemented each other. If the body was not strong, and the soul was too strong, the body might collapse, leaving only the soul body, just like A Handsome Old Man. Therefore, he was extremely excited to be able to strengthen his body like this.
Li Ran had already stopped absorbing the blood strands. His gaze was focused on the black object. There was a trace of curiosity in his eyes. He still could not remember what this thing was, but he knew that this thing was definitely a mysterious treasure. However, he was starting to feel troubled as to how to collect it. After a bit of testing, he knew that this thing could not be stored in the sealed Secret Domain. After a while, the black object finally absorbed enough blood strands.
There were no more blood strands flying out from the mouth of the mountain. Guo Shier knew that as long as he waited for a while, the black object would suck out countless more blood strands from the mouth of the mountain. He did not have any ideas about the black object. This thing was too mysterious. There was a layer of invisible waves on its surface. He did not have the ability to touch it at all. Of course, he did not covet the black object too much because Li Ran and Zhen Wuji were here. In terms of strength, if they wanted to take action, it would be their business.
Guo Shier and A Handsome Old Man were not greedy. They both understood that there were some things that could be snatched and some things that could not be snatched. Once they took action, they might very well lose their lives. Therefore, the two of them waited patiently for the blood strands to float up again. This was the real good thing that they could use.
Li Ran hesitated for a long time. He did not even collect the blood strands anymore. He just stared at the black object in a daze.
Zhen Wuji was about the same as Li Ran. He also stared at the black object. He was even more hesitant. Whenever his body got close to the black object, his soul would start to tremble violently, as if warning him not to get any closer.
Only Guo Shier and Hong Yuguang continued to focus their attention on the floating blood strands. As long as there were blood strands floating up, the three of them would do their best to collect the Blood Essence Beads.
Other than eating a few Blood Essence Beads from time to time, Guo Shier was desperately commanding Gusirius to collect the blood strands. He had already obtained more than seven hundred Blood Essence Beads. Each one was the size of a quail egg. The life essence they contained was extremely pure. It was many times better than the Blood Essence Beads he had collected and purified himself.
A Handsome Old Man smiled and said, "Not counting the gains at the foot of the mountain, just these Blood Essence Beads alone, we have made a huge profit this time."
Guo Shier said excitedly, "With the purity of these Blood Essence Beads, my body can quickly adapt to the discomfort after leveling up. I can quickly level up in the future … Haha, no, we need to collect more Blood Essence Beads. In the future, Uncle Falconer and Uncle Luo can also quickly level up. They need to level up. Otherwise, when they reach the outside world, they will be at a disadvantage."
After staying at the entrance of the mountain for more than ten days, Guo Shier had also collected thousands of Blood Essence Beads. He sighed and said, "How many mutated beasts must have died for there to be so much Blood Essence Beads? I really don't know what this thing is. It's so strange."
In these ten days, Li Ran had been testing. Sometimes he used virtual talismans, sometimes he used his soul perception, and sometimes he used other special methods. He continuously probed and experimented, trying to find the weakness of the black object and identify what it was. However, he had not obtained any useful information.
Guo Shier hoped that Li Ran would continue probing and experimenting. That way, he would be able to get more Blood Essence Beads. However, it was obvious that Li Ran was starting to get impatient.
Li Ran said, "Zhen Wuji, you take the three of them down. I want to try … to attack it and see what effect it has."
Zhen Wuji nodded. He also seemed a little impatient. After such a long time, he had also been testing, but he had not obtained any useful information. He said, "Be careful, this thing is really strange. I feel … it is alive!"
Li Ran nodded and said, "Yes, I also have the same feeling. It is alive. Moreover, it is not a local product. It should be something from outside."
Guo Shier went up to Zhen Wuji's altar with a little regret. He said, "What a pity. If I had time, I could still collect some Blood Essence Beads."
Li Ran said, "If we can figure out what it is, its value will definitely surpass the Blood Essence Beads. Alright, you guys go away."
