After the first pair of eyes opened, more and more pairs of eyes opened at the bottom of the lava.
Each pair of eyes looked almost exactly the same.
Moreover, all of them were filled with malice and appeared to be extremely vicious.
"What's going on? My senses have deteriorated.
Not only that, but there seem to be countless pairs of eyes locked onto us. "
Dongfang Xue furrowed her brows.
In this volcano that was filled with lava, one couldn't see anything at all with their eyes. They could only rely on their soul perception and other detection techniques to know what was going on around them.
However, just then, Dongfang Xue felt that the soul energy she released seemed to be covered by a strange energy.
This strange energy seemed to be soul energy, but it also seemed to be energy transformed from the mysterious power of laws. It was very unpredictable.
Gu Xuan had already activated his Delusion-Breaker Eyes. Although he couldn't completely see through the lava around them, at least he could clearly see the changes in the intensity of the various types of energy within the lava.
Gu Xuan also sensed what Dongfang Xue was saying.
Moreover, his Delusion-Breaker Eyes allowed him to see even more things.
"The energy within this lava has suddenly increased.
Moreover, this energy contains extremely special fluctuations of laws and soul energy.
That's why it's affecting your senses.
As for what those pairs of eyes that are locked onto us are, we'll be able to see very soon. "
As soon as Gu Xuan finished speaking, as if to confirm his words, a dense pack of ferocious beasts suddenly appeared around the light barrier enveloping him and Dongfang Xue.
These ferocious beasts were of different sizes. The small ones were only the size of a fist, while the large ones were ten feet in size.
They looked very strange. At first glance, they looked like tadpoles with round bodies and long thin tails.
However, they were definitely not as simple as tadpoles.
Their mouths were abnormally large and stretched across most of their round bodies.
The teeth in his mouth were completely triangular. They were incomparably sharp and filled with blood Qi. They looked rather frightening.
What was even more frightening were their eyes.
Those vicious and venomous eyes were like the eyes of an evil spirit from the underworld.
Normal Sage Stage cultivators with slightly weaker mental fortitude would probably be scared out of their wits just by looking into their eyes.
Those who had not seen this pair of eyes with their own eyes would find it hard to believe that there was such a vicious pair of eyes in this world.
They gave off the feeling that they were going to ruthlessly ravage, tear, and devour everything they saw.
Even with Dongfang Xue's current strength, the hairs on her body stood on end at the sight of them.
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze across the group of ferocious beasts.
"Don't be afraid. These things can't hurt us."
Dongfang Xue shook her head with a wry smile.
"I don't feel afraid, but their eyes make me feel very uncomfortable.
I never imagined that there would be such a strange beast in this world. "
"Keke, keke …"
The ferocious beasts opened their mouths wide and let out strange laughter, which made people's hair stand on end.
Whoosh!
They charged viciously toward Gu Xuan and Dongfang Xue, using their sharp fangs as their weapons to tear at the light barrier around them.
Gu Xuan sneered and casually formed a sword seal. Rays of sword light shot out from the light barrier and pierced through the approaching ferocious beasts.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The ferocious beasts exploded into pieces.
But what was strange was that after they exploded, they melted into the magma and disappeared.
It was as if they were formed from magma.
But both Gu Xuan and Dongfang Xue could see that when these ferocious beasts were alive, they did indeed have the aura of flesh and blood on their bodies. They were definitely not formed from magma.
As soon as the ferocious beasts in front exploded, the ferocious beasts behind had already charged forward and continued to attack without any fear of death.
"What are these ferocious beasts?"
Dongfang Xue was very curious as she watched the ferocious beasts explode and melt into nothingness.
Gu Xuan searched through the memories in his mind.
Soon, there was a result.
"If I'm not wrong, these aren't ferocious beasts, but soul beasts that are between the netherworld creatures and living beings of flesh and blood.
Soul beasts are very special existences. They are not like living beings of flesh and blood. Their flesh, body, and soul can be independent of each other, but they are also indispensable.
They are also not like the netherworld creatures. There is no trace of vitality in their bodies, and they are full of death aura. "
Gu Xuan's right middle finger and index finger were like a sword. With a light wave, countless rays of sword light shot out.
The light barrier that enveloped the two of them also sank into the depths of the magma at an extremely fast speed.
Gu Xuan continued to explain, "Soul beasts. Their flesh, body, and soul are unified.
Their attacks, even if they only use their teeth to bite, must be a dual attack of both physical and soul.
Moreover, these dual attacks are highly toxic.
Once bitten, not only will the body be damaged, but even the soul will be corroded.
In order to kill them, the attack must contain soul energy. "
Dongfang Xue's eyes lit up.
"They are indeed very strange existences, but their intelligence doesn't seem to be very high.
They just look a little scary. It won't be difficult to deal with them. "
Gu Xuan shook his head.
"That's where you are wrong. These are just ordinary soul beasts. They do not seem to be very intelligent. However, it is precisely because of this that they are not afraid of death.
Don't be fooled by their strength. Each of them is only comparable to a peak Sage. Once surrounded, even an early-stage Profound Sage will be exhausted to death.
Of course, this is not important.
What is important is that the soul beasts are able to safely gather together. This means that they must have a king.
The one who is really spying on us and attacking us is that King! "
Dongfang Xue's expression changed slightly.
From Gu Xuan's tone, the king who was secretly controlling all the soul beasts and attacking them was probably not ordinary.
"Is it very strong?"
Dongfang Xue asked solemnly.
Gu Xuan nodded seriously.
"Very strong. Even with my high-level Profound Sage soul energy, I am unable to accurately detect its location.
In other words, its soul realm is that of a high-level Profound Sage.
The soul and body of a soul beast are unified.
Therefore, what we are facing is a true high-level Profound Sage soul beast. No matter how you look at it, it is a true high-level Profound Sage soul beast.
This is also the troublesome part. If the king of the soul beasts is a high-level Profound Sage, then these peak Sage soul beasts in front of us are just appetizers.
It definitely has early-stage and mid-stage Profound Sages as its subordinates. "
The corner of Dongfang Xue's mouth twitched.
"Then why are we still running down? This is its home ground!
With me dragging you down, it is better for you not to provoke an opponent of this level.
I think it would be wise for us to leave immediately. "
Gu Xuan laughed bitterly.
"Do you think I want to be its enemy?
Even if we want to escape now, it is already too late.
I don't blame you. More than 90% of your soul perception has been blocked by it.
In fact, we have already been fooled from the moment we entered the lava.
The so-called volcano, the so-called lava, and the two fire-elemental auras I sensed at the beginning were all fake. Everything was an illusion! "
