The two Saber-winged Tigers ran as fast as they could, trying their best to hide their tracks to avoid being discovered.
If these two Saber-winged Tigers could speak, they would definitely say, "We're so unlucky, so unlucky!"
Their nest had been wiped out, and all of their brethren had died an unnatural death. Fortunately, after the husband and wife had eaten the Neidan, they had digested it again and again, and their cultivation had improved greatly. That was how they had been able to escape and survive until now.
Otherwise, they would have become the spoils of war of the humans.
They ran as fast as they could, so how could they care about which direction to go …
"Awoo awoo awoo …" (The Starry Mountains are in front.)
"Awoo awoo …" (I heard that we'll be safe once we're inside. There are many high-level star beasts gathered here, and they'll definitely protect us.)
"Awoo awoo …" (Hurry up, stop talking nonsense!)
"Awoo awoo awoo …" (The children are gone …)
"Awoo awoo awoo awoo awoo awoo awoo …" (We're safe, let's make a few more nests.)
"Awoo!" (Dead ghosts!)
The two tigers rushed into the Starry Mountains like they were flying …
"Awoo awoo?" (There seems to be the same kind of aura?)
"Awoo awoo awoo awoo?" (I also feel it, so strong.)
"Awoo awoo awoo!" (Hurry up, senior, we're coming!)
…
About three hundred miles ahead of where Zuo Xiaoduo was hiding, there was a huge valley. The surroundings were cold and wet, and every stone was slippery.
Below, there seemed to be a huge flowing black lake.
In the morning fog, it flowed slowly, and flowed …
Suddenly, the lake seemed to be still, and there were no more waves.
After a while, a whirlpool appeared on the lake.
A huge black head suddenly stretched out from the black lake. It was only the head and neck, but it was already as tall as a two-story building. It was really huge.
The black head looked ferocious and terrifying, and the two feelers on its head were at least a hundred meters long, swaying in the air. It seemed to have found something interesting, and its whole body slowly rose from the lake.
That black head was actually a humongous centipede!
The giant centipede swam for a bit and came to the shore. It coiled its body under a cliff and stopped moving. Its two protruding eyes, which were as big as a square table, looked around in confusion.
Why did he vaguely feel that something was wrong?
Today's wind was a little noisy!
Then, he placed his feet on the ground and tilted his head to listen to the movements of the outside world.
If someone were to see this scene, they might be scared out of their wits. This centipede had hundreds of feet … No, hundreds … No … There were at least seven to eight hundred pairs, or even more!
Any one of its legs was at least twenty meters long!
Thick, long, and hard!
It was covered in fur!
What was going on outside?
Could it be that those despicable humans had finally discovered that there was something good hidden in this valley that was about to mature and be unearthed?
The giant centipede became more and more vigilant. It dug a hole under its body and slowly hid its body.
No matter what, I won't leave this mountain cliff ….
…
The pain was unbearable, but there was an end to it. At this moment, Zuo Xiaoduo had completed the first compression.
With a pale face, Zuo Xiaoduo rested for a long time. Then, he lay down in the Tower of Annihilation and fell into a deep sleep. He slept for more than three hours. When he woke up, he realized that he had nothing to do. So, he took out the Jade of Astral Souls and the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger again and started to practice. He wanted to be in his best condition at all times.
Another six hours passed in this round of training.
He had to admit that after his cultivation improved, the speed at which he absorbed spiritual energy became more and more terrifying.
After the first compression, Zuo Xiaoduo's energy center's upper limit reached a new high. After six hours of continuous practice, the Heart of the Sun emitted abundant heat energy, the consumption of a large amount of top-grade Jade of Astral Souls, and the energy contained in the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger had all turned into mist in his energy center.
"The storage capacity of the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger seems to be very ordinary." Zuo Xiaoduo looked at the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger.
He finally understood why Uncle Nan had given him this thing back then — it was because the storage capacity of this Dragon Blood Flying Dagger was an unparalleled treasure for cultivators with low cultivation!
But at Uncle Nan's level, the so-called benefit of the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger was just a drop in the ocean. It was completely useless!
Even for the current him, it was barely enough for him to use!
The Dragon Blood Flying Dagger, which was originally in a saturated state, had already consumed two-thirds of its storage capacity!
According to this ratio, the amount of Dragon Blood Flying Dagger that was consumed to the point of vomiting was not enough for Uncle Nan's one breath of breathing …
Zuo Xiao Duo made a rough calculation. According to his current progress, once he reached the Cloud Transformation Realm … Even if he didn't reach the Cloud Transformation Realm, the Dragon Blood Flying Dagger would lose its use to him!
"I still need more good things!"
Zuo Xiaoduo sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Things like compression could not be continued for the time being.
After going through compression once, what he really needed to do was to … fight!
Using actual combat to consume the recharged True Qi and True Essence was like a person who had eaten a full meal and needed to digest the food.
At the same time, he needed to consolidate his current gains and adapt to them!
Fortunately, there were many people outside who were not afraid of death. Large amounts of wealth were waving at him!
"Boss, be careful. The centipede is coming out." Xiao Long's voice came in time.
"Centipede? Where is it? "
The first thing that Zuo Xiaoduo thought of was a dish, a main dish: Fried Centipede!
This main dish was to cut off the head and tail of the centipede and pinch it with your hands … The snow-white centipede meat fell into the seasoning, rolled it around, and then put it into the boiling oil …
Then, it was scooped up with boiling water and sprinkled with fine salt … Oh my god …
Zuo Xiaoduo's saliva flowed out.
"Where is it? Where is it? The size should not be small. I'll catch it and fry it. It'll definitely be satisfying. "Zuo Xiaoduo looked at Xiao Long.
The fried centipedes that he had eaten in the past were all snatched up as soon as they were on the table. Xiao Long solemnly reminded himself that it must be a Star Beast. The size should not be small. It was just right for him to gorge himself and satisfy his cravings!
Xiao Long was obviously a little Spartan. He looked at Zuo several times and was obviously surprised by Zuo's courage. That thing … You dare to eat it?
"It should be at least 100,000 catties … right?" Xiao Long said uncertainly.
"100,000 catties!?"
Zuo Xiaoduo was shocked. "Is there a centipede settlement here?! Why are there so many of them!? If there are so many of them, not only can I eat them myself, but I can also sell them. Not bad, not bad, not bad at all! "
"One!"
Xiao Long's two little paws covered his eyes.
"One!"
Zuo Xiaoduo opened his mouth so wide that he could swallow a goose egg. "100,000 catties for a centipede?"
"Yes …"
"Cough, cough …"
Zuo Xiaoduo readily admitted defeat. "That's too big. It's not easy for a centipede to grow that big. I won't eat it, I won't eat it. I'll just treat it as doing a good deed!"
He could not afford it, nor could he afford to offend it.
A centipede of 100,000 catties, what kind of existence would that be …
Eat it?
It's more like it would eat me …
Cough, cough, I'd better not think about it.
Zuo Xiaoduo cautiously came out of the Tower of Annihilation …
As soon as he returned to the cave, he keenly felt that the air around him seemed to have stagnated. He was clearly five hundred meters below the surface, but he still felt as if his body was stuck in a thick congee, unable to move freely ….
The centipede above was so scary!
"Longlong, how far are we from that centipede now?!"
Xiao Long went to confirm again.
"200 miles."
"200 miles. It's so far away, but it can still cause such a big disturbance. It seems that it's really skilled …"
Zuo Xiaoduo was depressed.
He very carefully began to dig a hole, loosened the soil underground, and dug all the way in the direction of the Centipede Queen.
Basically, he asked Xiao Long to go outside to investigate the situation and report back at any time …
He dug very carefully, almost silently.
Five miles … 10 miles … 25 miles …
Xiao Long came in again and again to report.
"It hasn't noticed."
"It hasn't noticed yet …"
"It still hasn't noticed here …"
"It has noticed, but it doesn't care …"
Zuo Xiaoduo had expected this. The little movement he made was similar to a mouse digging a hole for a gigantic Star Beast that weighed at least 100,000 catties. It was even lighter than a mouse digging a hole …
And why would a Great Demon King that weighed more than 100,000 catties care about a mouse digging a hole?
Even if it noticed, it wouldn't take it to heart.
When a person walked on the road, would he notice a worker ant running in an ant nest under his feet?
That would be impossible.
Therefore, Zuo Xiaoduo wasn't too worried about the movement he made.
Until …
"The Centipede Queen keeps looking in this direction …"
When he heard Xiao Long's report, Zuo Xiaoduo immediately stopped digging!
He had dug a distance of about 120 miles. It wasn't short …
On the ground.
The gigantic centipede coiled at the bottom of the cliff. Its huge eyes flashed with doubt as it stared in a certain direction.
There was a little thing digging a hole over there. It should be a little mouse?
Or a rat demon?
It actually dug for so long and gradually approached the territory of this king's forces …
If it continues to dig here, I'll be angry.
Although it's just an ant and not worth my anger, it's annoying to keep digging in this direction, right?
Fortunately, it soon discovered that the little mouse seemed to have changed direction and went in the opposite direction.
The centipede shook its head, and its two hundred-meter-long antennae swayed. Hmph, I won't bother with an ant.
You're lucky that it left. It's probably a beast's instinct to seek good fortune and avoid calamity, a warning of impending doom?!
Zuo Xiaoduo, who was in the hole, made a prompt decision and quickly adapted.
At the end of the hole, he cleaned up the soil and then carefully buried a string of triggered mines.
