Chapter 882: The Old Demon

Chapter 882: The Old Demon
Chen Chuan hunted a lot of creatures from the fusion land along the way. Apart from the rust bees which numbered in the millions, he didn't capture many species.

But anything that can provide him with high-energy nutritional value is at the front of the food chain, so if he encounters a rare species of the same kind, he will try not to hunt repeatedly.

Because a relatively complex biosphere has already been formed here, if a powerful creature like him suddenly breaks in and attacks recklessly, it will definitely cause a greater impact in a short period of time.

Although the biosphere of the blending area will self-regulate, some valuable creatures may never be seen again.

But there is no need to be polite to this poisonous ant.

This thing is a pure destroyer, just like a sore growing on the skin. The more you remove, the better it is for the creatures here, and it will also help restore the growth of grass and trees here.

After he absorbed this part, he continued to move forward. Within the range of the field, wisps of white mist gathered into his body. During this time, he kept practicing the Heaven and Earth Furnace Breathing Method, allowing these nutrients to be transformed into his own nourishment without stopping.

It is actually a bit of a waste to absorb it directly in this way. The nutrients that can be actually digested by him may be less than one-third of the original. But the quantity of this thing is so large that the lack of quality can be completely compensated by quantity.

There were so many ant nests here that he spent an entire afternoon harvesting them but only managed to clear a small corner of the edges.

Considering the large scale of these ant nests, he decided to continue at night, so that night, he continued to practice the Great Bright Light Style which he had not fully mastered before.

The consumption speed suddenly increased a lot, which forced him to speed up the absorption of these ant eggs and keep moving positions. Chao Ming could no longer sleep well and kept following him. Fortunately, it had eaten a lot of honey before and was in good spirits at the moment, chirping beside him to cheer him on.

Until dawn, Chen Chuan stopped again. He adjusted his breathing. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to master the move he was practicing in another night. This was far faster than his practice speed in the central city or even overseas.

In addition to the abundant nutrition provided by the fresh and almost unlimited ingredients, he also discovered that the fusion land itself seemed to be more suitable for the training of a fighter, especially after the night when he confronted another world, which made him gain a deeper understanding and development of the secret teachings of the Pure School that he practiced.

From this perspective, even though the generals of the old imperial family gained the ability to move freely in the fusion land at night, they actually lost some of the convenience in their practice.

But maybe they don’t think so themselves.

At this time, he looked behind him. During this night, a large number of ant nests were emptied by him. Some grass and trees had grown again in those places, and some small creatures had appeared.

But even so, most of them were still there. He thought about it and decided that since he was here, he might as well stay here for another day and remove some of them. In this way, he could also master this move of the Great Bright Light Style.

Of course, he didn't plan to stay here for too long, because he came here to practice after all. The deeper he went into the fusion area, the higher the nutritional value of the creatures. It was okay to stay here for a short time, but there was no need to stay for a long time.

So he stayed here for another day and night, and cleared almost all the ant nests visible to the naked eye. However, these things were very tenacious. Although there were no more on the surface, there should still be a lot under the soil. They would grow and become stronger after a while, so he didn't need to worry about them.

During this time, he also mastered the Great Bright Light Style. Because the Great Bright Light Style and the Great Blue Sky Style are best practiced together, he will practice the corresponding Great Blue Sky Style next.

After eating a little honey in the morning, he continued on his way.

Unexpectedly, less than an hour after he went out, he encountered a surprise. He found a ghost face vine.

There are bumpy textures on the trunk that resemble ghost faces, which look like faces embedded in the trunk, and hundreds of green and yellow fruits are hanging on the unrolled long vines, each of which is shiny, plump and full of moisture, making people salivate just by looking at them.

But in fact, this fruit is condensed from the secretions of the ghost face vine. It has a hard shell on the outside and a paralyzing toxin inside. When it falls to the ground, it will attract other creatures to come and eat it. After being paralyzed, they will be entangled by the vines and then swallowed whole by the main trunk, leaving no bones behind.

In the biological encyclopedia, this thing is actually quite valuable. One of the fruits hanging on it is actually edible and has a very high nutritional value.

In addition, people in the old days were particularly fond of using this thing to make shields. All they had to do was peel off the ghost masks, polish them, and assemble them on the shield. Then, on the battlefield, as long as they hit the ghost faces with weapons, they would make a shocking howl.

Moreover, this thing itself is very hard. If you don't master the spiritual fire, it will be difficult to split it even if you use an alienated weapon to chop it.

But it also has some weaknesses. Although its branches are tough, it has almost no resistance to spiritual power. Today, he did not intend to destroy this ghost face vine, but just wanted to find the essence fruit. So he took a few steps forward, and his spiritual power suddenly surged towards the main trunk like a tide.

After just a while, the ghost-faced vine began to shake, and as if stimulated by it, the fruits hanging on the vine fell to the ground one by one, emitting bursts of strange fragrance, but there was only one that never fell and remained hanging steadily on it.

This is where the real fruit of the Ghost Face Vine is. He walked over and picked it off. The Ghost Face Vine suddenly became listless, but as long as there is sufficient nutrients, it will recover in about a few months.

He took this thing and tapped the top gently. The outer shell came off immediately, revealing a number of black seeds the size of a fingertip. A mellow and long-lasting aroma emanated from them. He grabbed a few and put them in his mouth, chewing them slowly.

This thing has a crispy texture. Soon after swallowing it, I felt my mental and physical strength restored, and I nodded unconsciously.

The seeds of the ghost face vine can be preserved for a long time. On the one hand, they have high nutritional value, but the most important thing is that they have a certain effect of restoring mental and physical strength. With this thing, he can extend his stay here.

After all, he cannot rest at night and needs to rely on various means to resist infection. If he does not want to waste time during the day, he needs to hold on unless he takes extra time to rest. But with this thing, he doesn't have to worry about it for a short time.

Because the shells containing the seeds would easily rot once they were separated from the vines, he poured them out into a container, and after processing them, he continued on his way.

But afterwards, he began to become alert and paid close attention to the situation around him, communicating with Chao Ming from time to time.

According to the record, Wei Guochan and Gai Shuhe stayed here for about ten days before leaving in a hurry. If we don't count the hunting and resting time, it is very likely that they encountered some situation between the fourth and sixth days.

There are so many benefits here, so there must be some threat that forced them to give them up.

Usually, those who can pose a threat to fighters are people or creatures at least at the same level. Generally speaking, only a very small number of the population can break through to a higher level, and they may not stay in the original place, but will try to go deeper or simply run to the other side of the World Ring.

But there is another possibility...

What on earth is this thing? If it is still there, then given his current distance, he should be able to see it soon.

He encountered nothing the whole morning, but towards evening, Chao Ming made a warning sound, "Chirp", in front of him.

After hearing this, he immediately stepped onto a giant tree and leaped to the top of a branch. He looked into the distance, his eyes fixed. On the opposite hillside, a huge silhouette appeared, estimated to be seven or eight meters tall.

Since the body was covered with a lot of dust and plants, and it was sitting there, at first glance, it might just be mistaken for an ordinary earth slope.

Is this the alienated fighter from the old times?
Or...a demon?
As he watched, the huge body seemed to sense something and shook. The dust and grass on its body fell off, and countless insects and small creatures jumped down and ran away. He slowly stood up from the ground, took heavy steps, and turned to Chen Chuan's side.

At this moment, Chen Chuan could see his face clearly. There were many eyes that looked like scars, with thick blood-like liquid flowing out of them. There were two broken parts on the left and right sides of his neck, as if there should have been two heads there.

There are more than a dozen huge arms behind it, but they are of different lengths; however, it can still be seen that he is wearing armor in the style of the old era formed by the alienated tissue extending from him, and he is holding a huge hammer in his hand, and at this moment his body is also rippling with a blue-red light.

Chen Chuan looked deeply, feeling the waves of chaotic spirit coming from there, and confirmed his judgment.

The more a fighter practices, the more external infections he suffers. When these infections become so severe that they cannot be eliminated, he will completely lose his original sanity and transform into another alienated creature that is more similar to the opposite side, which is the demon that Feng Heshou once mentioned.

Judging from the current situation, this thing may be in a state of stagnation for some reason, but once it senses the breath or biological field of a fighter and feels the approach of someone who poses a threat to itself, it will wake up.

At this moment, the huge demon suddenly started running. Although its body was huge, its speed was not slow at all. It was close to him in the blink of an eye and smashed down on him with a hammer!
