Shen Luo and Gui Jiang scouted this uninhabited city for an hour, but they still found nothing.
Just as the two of them gradually let down their guard and planned to go back, there was a sudden change in front of them!
Along with an ear-piercing screech from afar, countless moths shot out from a nearby building and flew toward Shen Luo and Gui Jiang at a fast speed.
These moths were about a foot in size and were grayish-black in color. With a flap of their wings, gray flames floated over.
"Just in time!" Ghost General rushed in front of Shen Luo and flew up to meet them, opening his mouth to scream.
Countless black sound waves appeared out of thin air and hit the gray moths like a storm, twisting the gray flames and moths into pieces, turning them into wisps of black gas that dissipated.
This black gas was the same as the Primordial Qi left after killing the Night Rakshasa, but it was much thinner.
Just as Gui Jiang was about to absorb the black Yin Qi, more than a dozen black shadows shot out from the black gas. They were more than a dozen gray flying scorpions the size of millstones. Each of them had reached the Out of Aperture Stage.
There was a loud sizzling sound!
More than a dozen pitch-black scorpion tails shot out, crossing a distance of more than a hundred feet in a flash and hitting Gui Jiang hard.
Gui Jiang wanted to dodge, but it was too late. The surface of his body glowed with black light and instantly condensed into a black light shield. At the same time, he opened his mouth and released another sound wave attack. Countless black sound waves hit the flying scorpions like angry waves.
"Bang! Bang!" There were two muffled sounds as both sides took a hit from each other!
Gui Jiang's body was sent flying, and the flying scorpions were also hit by the sound waves and were sent flying backward.
However, these flying scorpions stabilized their bodies and rushed over again as if nothing had happened.
Shen Luo was surprised. He made a gesture and pointed at the Blood Seether. More than a dozen black flames shot out from the surface of the Blood Seether and hit the grayish-black flying scorpions.
However, the flying scorpions were unusually nimble. They twisted their bodies and dodged swiftly to the side, but the black flames also changed along the way. Along the way, they turned into a dozen or so lifelike black fire birds that opened their mouths and caught all of the grayish-black flying scorpions.
Without waiting for the flying scorpions to struggle, the black fire birds all fell to the ground with loud puffing sounds.
A cold and gloomy aura suddenly spread out, and a small black sea of fire instantly formed. The dozen or so gray flying scorpions were engulfed by the sea of fire and instantly turned into ashes.
Seeing this, Shen Luo secretly nodded.
The power of the newly refined Blood Seether was indeed extraordinary. The bodies of the black flying scorpions were so tough that even the Ghost General's sound wave blades could not cut through them. However, they were so weak in front of the black Yin Fire that was condensed from the Yin energy of the Blood Seether. They were easily turned into nothingness!
"Many thanks for Master's help." Gui Jiang flew over, his complexion did not look very good.
"The situation here is strange. Don't be careless." Shen Luo made a hand seal and withdrew the Bloodthirsty Banner.
"Yes." Gui Jiang hurriedly agreed.
Shen Luo didn't reprimand the Ghost General anymore. He turned around and was about to leave when his eyes suddenly moved. He waved his hand and sent out a blue light. From the black Yin Fire that was still burning, something rolled out. It was a thumb-sized black bead.
"What is this?" Gui Jiang asked in surprise.
Shen Luo didn't answer. He reached out and caught the bead. A cold aura seeped out from the bead.
He used his Divine Sense to explore it and his eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
This black bead was obtained from the body of a gray flying scorpion. The bead was filled with a strange energy fluctuation. It was not Yin energy, nor was it like Ghost Qi. Instead, it was somewhat similar to the Fixed Vitality Sarira in his hand.
However, this bead did not have the slightest bit of Righteous Qi. Instead, it was filled with a strange power.
"I'm not sure. It was produced from the body of a flying scorpion. It also doesn't look like a Yin Qi crystal or anything like that." Shen Luo said.
"This thing looks pretty good. Let's take it out and show it to others. Perhaps it's some kind of precious material." Gui Jiang suggested.
Shen Luo had the same idea. He turned his hand and put it away.
"Master, those moths and scorpions came out from this building. Should we go in and take a look?" Gui Jiang looked at the building where the moths came from.
"Let's go in and take a look." Shen Luo pondered for a moment and said.
The two of them walked towards the main hall. However, the main hall's door was tightly shut. They couldn't push it open.
Shen Luo made a hand seal and once again urged the Blood Thirsty Banner. A black Yin Flame shot out from it. It rolled and condensed into a black ghost palm. It was wrapped in black flames. It looked very strange as it grabbed the main hall's door.
"Chi La" a light sound was heard. A large hole was made in the thick main hall's door.
"Master, the power of your banner is really terrifying. These black flames don't seem to be ordinary Yin Flames. I don't dare to take it head on." Gui Jiang looked at the black ghost palm and praised.
Shen Luo also felt that these black flames weren't ordinary Yin Flames. However, he didn't have time to pay attention to these things right now.
The two of them stepped into the main hall. The light inside the hall was dim. However, it wasn't a problem for Shen Luo and Gui Jiang. The two of them looked around and saw the situation inside.
The main hall wasn't small. It was about two or three hundred feet wide. However, it was very spacious. In the middle of the hall stood five grey pillars that reached the top of the hall. In the middle of the pillars was a black array. It looked very complicated. There were many grey crystals embedded in it.
The array was covered in dust. Apparently, it had stopped operating long ago.
In the middle of the array was a small circular space. A dried corpse sat there. Its four limbs were bound by black iron chains and firmly tied to the ground.
This dried corpse was yellow all over. It looked like the bark of an old tree. Its head was covered with messy grey hair. Its face couldn't be seen clearly. The strangest thing was that its head was split in half. It looked like someone had split the top of its head and removed its brain.
Although Shen Luo had seen many big scenes, this was the first time he had seen such a strange situation. He couldn't help but frown.
"Hey, what kind of array is this?" Gui Jiang looked down at the array on the ground and let out a soft cry.
Shen Luo also looked at the array. He raised his hand and emitted a blue light, rolling up a piece of the gray crystal in the array to take a closer look. The spiritual power inside the crystal had been exhausted, and there was nothing left inside.
He used his Netherworld Ghost Eye. Two blue lights shot out from his eyes. He carefully looked at the crystal. There were a few strange blood lights left inside.
"This is …" His face was slightly surprised.
"Master recognizes this crystal? What's so special about it? "Gui Jiang also picked up a grey crystal and looked at it carefully. However, he couldn't see anything.
"If my guess is correct, these crystals should be Blood Fetus Stones." Shen Luo said slowly.
"Blood Fetus Stones?" Gui Jiang looked confused. He had obviously never heard of this name.
"It's a type of blood dao crystal used for sacrifice. I'm afraid the array on the ground is a sacrificial array." Shen Luo explained.
He had read about the Blood Fetus Stones and the sacrificial array in the Dream Realm. He had read about them in the ancient records of the Jade Fox Clan. Gui Jiang naturally didn't know about them.
"Sacrificial array? In the Ghost Dao, there is indeed a technique to sacrifice souls. It can be used to refine magic weapons or enhance magical powers. The effect is very good. Unfortunately, this technique has been lost for a long time. I didn't expect it to be here. "Gui Jiang muttered to himself. He carefully observed the array on the ground. He seemed to be very interested in it.
