Di Shitian could clearly feel that the Rat King's body was constantly emitting a powerful energy. This energy was almost the same as the energy he felt from the God's Pearl on the altar. Moreover, it was not under the Rat King's control at all. It was completely out of his control. Now, this energy was rampaging through his body. It was wantonly destroying.
Although he didn't know what kind of treasure the bead was, he could guess that it was definitely not an ordinary object. The power contained in the bead could be said to be endless. Once such an inconceivable amount of power was drawn out, Rat King, who was only a Demonic Beast without any Demonic Cultivation Method, would not be able to withstand it even if his body was bathed in divine light day and night. It would become extremely tough and powerful.
How could it withstand the endless energy in the pearl?
It was like a greedy child who wanted to pick up a sword that only adults could pick up. Not only could it not wield it, but it could also easily hurt itself.
At the beginning, the energy gushing out of the God's Pearl was still within the Rat King's tolerance. Therefore, in the blink of an eye, the Rat King's strength increased by several times, or even dozens of times. However, if it continued and could not be controlled, the energy gushing out of the pearl would become more and more intense. Once it exceeded the tolerance of the Rat King's body, it would become harmful. It would immediately turn from beneficial to harmful.
Once the energy that did not belong to him escaped his control and rampaged through his body, it was like gunpowder that could explode at any time.
Playing with fire, this was playing with fire.
After swallowing the God's Pearl, one would have to bear the brunt of the powerful energy. If one could not bear it, one would explode like a balloon.
"What exactly is that pearl? It is so mysterious."
Although Di Shitian's body was pierced through, with the help of his powerful demonic body, the wound began to heal. The bleeding had stopped, and the injury wasn't fatal. He carefully looked at the ferocious rat king and listened to the miserable screams. His eyes lit up and he shouted, "Su Su, quickly come back to the cave."
Hearing those words, Bai Susu instinctively leaped into the passageway that they came in from. Meanwhile, Di Shitian's gaze fell on Rat Boss, who was lying on the ground. He grabbed him by the tail and lifted him up. A gentle breeze blew past him, and in the blink of an eye, he was back in the passageway. Then, with a flick of his wrist, he used the rock that he had cut to block the entrance of the passageway.
"Bang!!"
After doing all this, there was a miserable scream and a terrifying explosion in the secret chamber. Then, the entire underground shook as a destructive force swept through the surroundings. The rumbling continued without end, and the countless underground tunnels within a radius of a hundred li were shaken until they collapsed. Who knew how many rats were buried underground?
The scene was extremely terrifying.
Even the passageway that Di Shitian and the others were in collapsed. However, with Bai Susu and Di Shitian's strength, even if the passageway collapsed, it wouldn't cause too much damage.
The violent tremors lasted for a while. Then, it gradually stopped.
With a loud crash, Di Shitian broke free from the collapsed passageway. He rushed into the secret chamber.
"You want to reap without sowing and seize power that doesn't belong to you? You're playing with fire and getting burned. You don't know your limits as a demon. However, you're delusional if you want to drag me down with you when you're on the verge of death. "
Scanning the surroundings, the secret chamber had become abnormally sturdy under the illumination of the God Orb for many years. It did not collapse from the explosion. However, the altar that originally stood in the middle of the chamber had been completely blown to smithereens by the Rat King's self-destruction. Furthermore, the Rat King's body had also exploded into millions of pieces and scattered all over the place.
It couldn't be any more dead.
However, on the spot where the altar used to be, a yellow pearl had fallen to the ground. Streaks of yellow light flashed continuously on the pearl, as if there was a pool of yellow spiritual water rippling in the pearl. It looked exceptionally mysterious. However, the divine light that was constantly emitting from the pearl seemed to have been completely retracted.
There was an additional mysterious hue on the outside.
"What kind of treasure is this pearl? It was radiating divine light just a moment ago, but now it's extremely retracted, just like my black pearl. "Di Shitian walked forward and picked up the yellow pearl with his left hand, while the black pearl appeared in his right hand. The two pearls were almost the same size and appearance, except for the color. There was almost no difference in other aspects.
What was it?
This question unconsciously emerged from the bottom of his heart, making it difficult for him to answer. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he knew too little about this continent and this world. He knew very little about all kinds of things and all kinds of secrets. He clearly knew that the two pearls in his hands were very likely some kind of miraculous treasure. There was a mountain of treasures in front of him, but he couldn't recognize it.
This was a kind of torture.
"If the 'Know-It-All' was here, maybe he would know what kind of treasure these pearls are."
He suddenly thought of the seemingly cynical Know-It-All he had met in the Guqin Valley. Thinking of the Know-It-All, he felt that this person was definitely not as simple as he looked. He was most likely a strange person who played the game. He remembered that the Peach of Immortality and the Tree of World that he had mentioned seemed to be some kind of incredible existence.
He had many questions to ask, but when he thought of the price that the Know-It-All had offered, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He couldn't think of any of those things. The only thing that was slightly more reliable was the Ten Thousand Year Monkey Wine. Maybe he could use the Wine God's Gourd to get it in the future, but he didn't dare to think about other things. It was too far away.
"Forget it, these two pearls must be extraordinary treasures. Although I don't know what they are used for now, I'll have time to ask about it in the future." Seeing the change in the yellow pearl, the black pearl that he hadn't paid much attention to also became particularly different. He guessed that the black pearl might be the same as the yellow pearl. For some reason, it had become introverted. It didn't reveal its mystery.
There must be a connection between the two.
"Hey, I remember."
Di Shitian's mind suddenly flashed and his eyes lit up. He first took out the Seven Sins Demonic Zither, then patted the storage bag and took out a yellow ancient scroll. The ancient scroll emitted bursts of ancient aura. It could be seen that it had existed for a very long time. It was none other than the ancient scroll that flew out of the Imperial Heavenly Treasure Box when he first broke the jigsaw puzzle lock.
He took the ancient scroll in his hand and quickly opened it.
The picture on the ancient scroll was reflected in his eyes. The picture in the picture was of a nine-stringed guqin. Seeing this picture, Di Shitian's eyes instantly fell on the strange groove beside each string of the guqin. The shape of the groove was also circular. It seemed that it was specially used to embed some kind of bead.
"Could this groove really be used to embed some kind of bead? However, what kind of precious bead is this? Strange, why didn't the ancient scroll say anything about it? "
Sakra secretly guessed in his heart. That year, when he saw the ancient scroll, he also paid the most attention to this picture of the ancient zither. It was entirely the nine strings on the ancient zither. After all, the nine-stringed guqin was one of the rarest things in the world. Therefore, at first glance, it attracted his attention.
Back then, he did have doubts about the groove beside the strings. However, at that time, he just thought that it might be a kind of strange carving. After a while, he didn't think about it anymore. Now it seemed that it might not be as simple as a carving.
Looking at the Seven Sins Demonic Zither again, there was a groove beside each of the nine strings on the guqin. Back then, when he was refining the guqin, he didn't have any other thoughts about leaving the groove empty. He just followed the pattern on the ancient scroll and refined it exactly the same. Now it seemed that if he didn't leave it at that time, it might have been a huge loss.
"What does this groove mean?"
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Di Shitian's mind. He wanted to put the bead in his hand into the groove and try. However, the Seven Sins Demonic Zither was his natal demon artifact. If there was an accident, it would be completely terrible. Not only would the guqin be damaged, but he would also be seriously injured. He didn't act rashly.
After thinking carefully, he didn't think about it anymore. He would think about it later.
He put the ancient scroll away and put it back. He carefully put the two beads in a jade box and put them away. With a thought, he put the Seven Sins back into his body.
"King, the Rat King is already dead. This stinky rat, should we kill it too?" Bai Susu also saw that Di Shitian got the yellow bead that was originally on the altar and was secretly happy. She had seen the power of the bead with her own eyes. It was definitely an incredible treasure. Since it was obtained by the king, she didn't feel jealous or greedy.
She knew that no matter what, as long as there was a share of the King, he would definitely not mistreat them as subordinates. The monkey wine was so precious, he was not stingy and gave them to use for cultivation. He also allowed them to choose all kinds of artifacts. For the King to be able to do this, it could be said that he had never underestimated them. This was enough.
Looking at the motionless Rat Boss on the ground, Bai Susu said in disgust.
"Wait, Black Tiger King, White Python Queen, please don't kill me. I surrender, I don't want to die. " Rat Boss, who was lying on the ground like a corpse, immediately rolled on the ground and quickly stood up when he heard Bai Susu say that she wanted to kill him. He put his two paws together and kowtowed to Di Shitian.
There were banging sounds on the ground.
He said the words of surrender without a trace of backbone. He looked like he was afraid of death.
"Don't worry, keep this little rat. He is still useful to our Myriad Demon Valley. Don't be in a hurry to kill him. "
Di Shitian glanced at Rat Boss and said indifferently. There was a meaningful look in his eyes. (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters, support the author, support the original reading!)
