The vast majority of cultivator cities were built around mountains. Therefore, Wei Suo was unable to determine which city this was. He could only be sure that this was definitely not the Northern Spirit City.
The flesh of this purple flame giant beetle had already solidified and turned cold, but it had not rotted. Judging from this, it should have been dead for two to three days.
Usually, this kind of demon beast's flesh would begin to rot after four days.
Weisuo scanned the beetle with his consciousness and found that there were no other injuries on the other parts of its body. It should have died because of the bloody hole he dug and the continuous journey.
According to Weisuo's previous judgment, this purple flame giant beetle's injuries were not serious. It would take at least seven to eight days for it to die. In addition, it had been dead for at least two to three days. In other words, it had been about ten days?
Ten days?
Weisuo was shocked by the time he calculated.
He had been unconscious for about ten days?
Weisuo could not help but be stunned by this judgment.
According to the records of the Hidden Dragon Spitting Pearl Technique, it would only take about ten days for the sealed meridian points in the body to open and restore one's cultivation. In other words, it would only take two to three days for his cultivation to be restored?
This discovery stunned Weisuo for a long while.
If ten days had really passed and the Purple Flame Giant Beetle had followed his instructions and fled south as fast as it could, it would have traveled at least seventy to eighty thousand miles south in ten days without rest.
More than thirty thousand miles south of Northern Spirit City was Heavenly Shine City, then Qingluo City, Guanshan City … Based on this distance, he should have reached Guanshan City.
Guanshan City was the third city in the northern part of the Tianxuan Continent from Northern Spirit City. Qingluo City was also a large city in the northern part of the Tianxuan Continent. The Qingluo Daimi Sect was the fifth-ranked sect in the northern part of the Tianxuan Continent. It also had several Jin Dan cultivators. Moreover, the Daimi Sect had a spell called the Daimi Seal, which was also a mid-tier Heaven level spell with astonishing power.
If Guanshan City had been destroyed, then Heavenly Shine City and Qingluo City along the way must have ceased to exist!
No wonder the Heart Devouring Insect ran to an unknown place.
Before he fainted, he let the Heart Devouring Bug control the Purple Flame Giant Beetle all the way to the south. Now that the Purple Flame Giant Beetle was dead and he had been unconscious for too long, his Heart Devouring Bug had temporarily lost control. It must have run out to hunt on its own.
He wondered how Kyah and the others were doing.
Wei Suo's thoughts couldn't help but be a little confused. He immediately thought of Jiya and the others. At that time, the Ancient Teleportation Portal had been completely completed. Kyah and the others would have no problem teleporting to the Cloud Spirit Continent safely. However, Wei Suo had never imagined that he would be able to survive under such circumstances. They must have thought that he had fallen.
But no matter what, their temporary safety shouldn't be a problem. The most important thing now was to ensure that they didn't die.
Wei Suo released his Divine Sense to its fullest and carefully sensed the situation around him.
Under the perception of his Divine Sense, this completely destroyed city was deathly silent, and there was no sign of any cultivators.
But there were still demon beasts in this city. It was just that the number of demon beasts was not as dense as before. In half an hour, there were five or six demon beasts passing by within a thousand feet radius.
The density of demon beasts was about the same as the density of demon beasts in the Wasteland outside the vault of heaven. Moreover, Wei Suo could sense that two or three of these beasts were in a hurry, hurrying on their way. However, two of them seemed to be loitering nearby. They were already looking for food here, as if they were going to stay and settle down nearby.
This discovery made Weisuo's heart turn cold.
There were no cultivators, which meant that the area within tens of thousands of miles was still under the control of demon beasts. Maybe the demon beasts were still attacking other cultivator cities.
This area was equivalent to the territory of demon beasts. There could be powerful demon beasts passing by at any time.
Although he could regain control of his Heart Devouring Insect as long as it was slightly closer to him, at this moment, his Heart Devouring Insect might run further away. And according to his current injuries, even if all the sealed meridian points in his body were opened in two or three days and his cultivation base was restored, he still wouldn't be able to use a large amount of qi. It would take at least five days for the damaged meridians and internal organs in his body to be mostly healed. At that time, he would be a cultivator of the fourth layer of Gold Core Realm with an astonishing cultivation base. In these four or five days, he would still be a weakling who might not even be able to deal with a fourth or fifth level demon beast.
And when Lin Tai Xu threw him out of the formation, he threw the beast enslavement pouches containing the Yang Zhi Bird and Qing Luan into the formation. These two beast enslavement pouches would definitely be teleported to the edge of the Yunling continent with Kyah and the others. The safety of the Yang Zhi Bird and Qing Luan would definitely not be a problem.
At that time, he thought that he was going to die, so he did this. But now, his two Dark Bone Lords were also destroyed. The Yang Zhi Bird and Qing Luan were not with him, and even the Heart Devouring Insect was far away.
In the current situation, he had no effective protection at all.
And he spent a lot of effort on this Heart Devouring Insect. If something happened to this Heart Devouring Insect during this period of time when he was out of control, it would be a great loss for him.
Just thinking about it made him feel bitter in his mouth.
However, he had no other choice at the moment. He could only stay in the purple flame giant beetle's body to heal his injuries.
After half a day, Weisuo, with his eyes closed, moved slightly in the purple flame giant beetle's body. His body seemed to finally be able to move freely, pushing the surrounding insect meat a little further away from him.
Then, he immediately closed his eyes and focused on healing his injuries.
But this time, not long after, his eyes suddenly opened, and there was a cold look in his eyes.
After he gritted his teeth, a white light flashed in his hand. A white disc-shaped magic treasure appeared in his storage bracelet.
This magic treasure looked like ice, emitting traces of cold air. It was a low-grade spiritual magic treasure that Weisuo had not used at all. He had previously kept it in his storage pouch like a spirit stone.
Just using the storage bracelet to stimulate his vital essence obviously made his face pale, as if it affected the injuries in his body.
After taking out this magic treasure, Weisuo did not move at all. He just seemed to be waiting for something.
"Pa!"
"Pa!"
The purple flame giant beetle suddenly shook, and there was the sound of a collision outside.
Not long after the collision, there was the sound of tearing and swallowing. It seemed that something was devouring the purple flame giant beetle's flesh.
Weisuo's expression was extremely unsightly.
Not long after, there was a popping sound, and the two pieces of thick carapace covering the Purple Flame Giant Beetle were ripped open.
"Chi!"
Weisuo's expression changed. Without any hesitation, he activated the white disc-shaped magic treasure in his hand.
A puff of extremely cold white air immediately gushed out from the ground.
The thing that lifted the two pieces of carapace of the purple flame giant beetle were two demonic beasts that looked like otters. However, their bodies were covered in black scales and their mouths were full of sharp teeth. Stinky saliva flowed out from their mouths.
The two fetid yao beasts were about the size of a cultivator. Many pieces of purple-red flesh could be seen hanging from their sharp teeth. It seemed that they had already eaten some other parts of the Purple Flame Giant Beetle. However, they were not satisfied with the meal, so they simply tore off the two semi-circular carapaces of the Purple Flame Giant Beetle and feasted on it. These two demonic beasts did not expect that there was a cultivator below.
They did not have time to do anything. The two demonic beasts had only reached half of their bodies when they were hit by Weisuo's white cold air.
The front half of the two demonic beasts' bodies were immediately frozen into blocks of ice. Then, as the white cold air rushed forward, the two blocks of ice, together with the demonic beasts inside, shattered. The two demonic beasts were completely annihilated by Weisuo's sudden attack.
But at the same time, Weisuo's body shook violently. The white disc-shaped magic treasure in his hand dimmed. Another demonic beast reached in and bit Weisuo's hand that was holding the white disc. Then, with a tug, it pulled Weisuo out of the purple flame giant beetle's body as if he was pulling a carrot.
"Puff!"
After Wei Suo was dragged onto the Purple Flame Giant Beetle by the Demonic Beast, Wei Suo forcefully thrust his hand into the Demonic Beast's throat. The Demonic Beast's eyes immediately bulged and its body convulsed. Wei Suo pulled his hand out of the Demonic Beast's mouth. His hand was grabbing onto several organs that were either the throat or the esophagus. The Demonic Beast coughed out large amounts of blood from its mouth. After twitching for a while, it immediately stopped moving.
A trace of blood seeped out of the corner of Weisuo's mouth. He sat limply on the purple flame giant beetle's back, not daring to breathe too loudly for fear of causing more damage to his body.
Carrion Otter, a mid-fourth-tier level-four demonic beast that lived by devouring the flesh and blood of demonic beasts.
The three demonic beasts Weisuo had killed were of this type. Right now, there were only three Rotting Otters in his line of sight. However, Wei Suo's eyes were filled with shock.
At this moment, he was in the middle of a city that had completely turned into ruins. He was more or less in the center of the city.
There was not a single intact building left in the entire city. Broken walls and pillars were everywhere, and there were irregular fragments of debris that had been destroyed by various sorcery powers. In addition to the various holes on the ground caused by the impact of sorcery powers, there were many bottomless gullies. Some were as small as a snake's hole, while some were as large as one or two feet in radius. The ground at the exit was arched and cracked.
Broken cultivators' robes and broken bones could be seen everywhere. The ground was covered with the remains of various demonic beasts.
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west. The entire city seemed to be shrouded in the afterglow of the blood-red sunset.
This city was at least five times larger than Northern Spirit City. Around this city built against the mountain, as far as the eye could see, there were large expanses of green-gray sand plains.
Guanshan City!
The city he was in now was indeed Guanshan City!
Although Weisuo had never been to Guanshan City before and knew little about it, the green-gray sand plains around Guanshan City had left a deep impression on him when he looked at the map of the northern part of the Tianxuan Continent.
More than five thousand miles around Guanshan City was this kind of desert-like green-gray sand plains.
The reason why he had such a deep impression was that tens of thousands of years ago, a cultivator in Guanshan City tried to break through to the third level of the Divine Profound Realm. As a result, he completely destroyed a thousand-foot-tall green-gray stone mountain with one strike and turned it into powder. That was how this green-gray sand plains were formed.
However, Weisuo also remembered clearly that on the green-gray sand plains outside Guanshan City, there were only some short Iron Thorn Trees. Some of them were over a thousand years old and could be used to refine magic weapons.
But now, on the plains around Guanshan City, there were already several kinds of strange trees growing as far as the eye could see.
Many of these trees were dozens of feet tall. One kind of tree was emitting green phosphorescence and had many flowers like dandelions. There was also a type of tree that had purple flowers the size of washbasins blooming on it. It gave people a strange feeling for no reason. There was also a type of tree that had red berries growing on it. They were as big as watermelons and looked very ruddy.
Not only on the plains outside Guanshan City, but also in the ruins of Guanshan City, these strange trees had grown in many places!
What was different from what Weisuo had imagined was that the ruins of Guanshan City, which looked like a huge burial mound, were extremely quiet. It was not like what he had imagined, where demonic beasts could be seen everywhere.
What surprised him the most was that he saw that almost all the demonic beasts around him, except for some demonic beasts that were Level 3 and below, had their Monster Cores taken out. Moreover, some parts of their bodies that could be used to refine magic tools were also gone.
