Cheng Ling was 80% sure that the white snake in the light ball in front of her was Bai Suzhen. But this image is very different from the previous image, and it cannot be connected with the previous sea anemone python.
He turned around and said: "Eunuch Hai, come forward!"
Eunuch Hai responded and came to his side. Cheng Ling pointed at the ball of light that he suspected was Bai Suzhen and said, "Eunuch Hai, do you think that looks like Sister Bai?"
Among everyone, only he, Eunuch Hai and Bai Suzhen had spent a few years together. Therefore, he could only be used to sense and confirm the identity of the white snake.
Eunuch Hai's spiritual consciousness spread out. But his consciousness was not as strong as Cheng Ling's, and he could only see a vague outline. As for the white snake in the light ball, he couldn't see it clearly at all. In desperation, he could only say: "Master, I can't see clearly, and I don't dare to confirm whether it is Xiaobai!"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly. They were now very close to the whirlpool of demonic energy. If they went any further, they would be eroded by the overflowing demonic energy. Eunuch Hai's body contained extremely strong demonic energy, so he was really afraid of being eroded by the demonic energy again if he allowed him to come forward.
After pondering for a while, he made several handprints on his body, and layers of life and death bans surrounded Eunuch Hai's body. After a moment, he said: "If we go a little further, if we can't hold on any longer, tell me right away!"
Eunuch Hai nodded, and the two of them continued to dive forward.
Everyone stood behind them, ready to move, but they were intimidated by the whirlpool of demonic energy in front of them, and for a moment they didn't know whether they should go in or not!
After marching forward for about ten feet, Eunuch Hai said he had reached his limit. Despite this, the overflowing demonic energy enveloped him bit by bit and continued to penetrate into his body.
Cheng Ling had no choice but to let him concentrate his consciousness into a bunch and stretch it forward with all his strength. Eunuch Hai followed the instructions. After a long time, he trembled all over. Cheng Ling immediately took action, grabbed him, and retreated back to a position where the demonic energy could not be eroded.
Eunuch Hai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Master, I am 70% sure that it is Xiaobai. But she...!"
"It's just nothing, tell the truth!"
"She only has the essence of her life left now, and her physical body has dissipated. Fortunately, she is protected by the ball of light. If it were normal, her soul would have been eroded by the evil energy."
"The Essence of Life? What is that?"
Eunuch Hai explained: "The essence of life is the most precious thing of our monsters. It is different from the inner elixir. The inner elixir exists in the body of the monster and can be taken out as long as the body is peeled off. But the essence of life is different. As long as the monster does not condense, the essence of life is different. When it comes out, it will eventually dissipate as it dies.”
"After the monster transforms, the inner elixir is sublimated, and the essence of life is derived, which is stored in the body. It is like the origin of our monster, including the power of soul, memory, and physical essence. Without the inner elixir, we are just The level will be reduced, and it will be condensed again with the training, but if you lose the essence of your life, you will only fall."
Cheng Ling nodded and said: "So, the essence of life is similar to our human soul. If the soul is annihilated, it will never be possible to survive in the world!"
"Yes! Therefore, the essence of life is the most precious thing for our monsters. Xiaobai now hides his soul in the essence of life. Only some extremely precious elixirs or heavenly materials and earthly treasures can restore it again! "
Cheng Ling was shocked and asked, "You mean it's best not to destroy the mask?"
"Yes, the essence of life is very fragile. It cannot be dispersed unless there is a carrier to support it. The ball of light now wraps her in it, and there will be no change. But if the ball of light disappears, she will have to face it head-on. The demonic energy corrodes it and it won’t last long.”
"If you want to reshape
Physically, what can I do? "
"This is difficult. Monster beasts, like humans, need some rare chaos treasures to reshape their bodies. As far as the old slave knows, among all things in the world, the best body-shaping materials are the branches of Jianmu, or Chaos Qingdi, Immortal Silk flower, Nine-leaf Lotus, Xiaobai's body is anemone python, it would be best if there is Nine-leaf Hedyotis."
"There are many spiritual fruits and spiritual plants in the island group, have you ever seen them?"
Eunuch Hai smiled bitterly and said: "Master is joking. These treasures of heaven and earth require hundreds of millions of years to grow. According to Haochen's records, the island's secret realm only lasts tens of thousands of years. How could it possibly exist?"
Cheng Ling frowned. It seemed that it was not easy to help Sister Bai regain her physical body. However, we will figure out solutions for these later, but we should solve them now. Although it is protected by a ball of light, who knows what changes will happen in the center of the demonic water column.
At least the demonic water column in front of me had never appeared during Haochen's time. It must have evolved due to some unexpected situation that occurred later.
He stared closely at the vortex of demonic energy in front of him, thinking about countermeasures in his mind. To enter it, you have to avoid these demonic water pillars, but you are not afraid of the demonic energy that spreads out. But these whirlpools are very likely to pull them in. If they are caught in the water droplets, God knows what will happen.
Breaking in from the middle of the sea is not the best option. Then we have to go in from the bottom of the sea and first look at the origin of the demonic vortex, maybe we can find the weak spot.
He was meditating hard in front of the whirlpool of demonic energy, but the people behind him couldn't bear it anymore. They came behind Cheng Ling carefully, and Liu Qingyan asked, "Cheng Ling, have you found the exit?"
Cheng Ling was shocked and secretly ashamed. He only thought about dealing with Bai Suzhen, but he forgot about the matter. Where everyone was, it was still impossible to confirm whether they had left the Demonic Blood Continent. The mysterious demonic giant did not show up, and there was also a demonic monk who was not a fuel-efficient lamp.
His consciousness spread out and he searched carefully. But being next to the whirlpool, I was greatly affected and couldn't see clearly where the exit was. In desperation, his spiritual consciousness probed downwards, and the vortex of demonic energy moved from bottom to top. The further down, the faster the vortex rotated, and the area explored by his spiritual consciousness became smaller.
I secretly calculated in my heart that with the current distance, it would be difficult to grasp the correct direction of the exit. Maybe we can find it if we get closer! After pondering for a long time, he said: "You guys wait here while I go deeper. Don't worry, these evil spirits won't have much influence on me."
Everyone had no choice but to wait where they were.
Cheng Ling leaned forward, like a swimmer, and continued to dive forward. Ten feet, twenty feet, thirty feet... a full hundred feet forward. The whirlpool water column was only a hundred feet away from him, and the water around him became even more turbulent. He could only barely keep his body shape to prevent the whirlpool from getting involved.
By this time, the scene of the whirlpool gap became clearer. The treasures in those light balls were fully displayed in front of him. The number was not just a dozen before, but dozens of them. From the parallel position in front of him, extending downward, the light balls flickered on and off. , seems to have a fatal attraction.
The quality of the objects in the light ball is also gradually improving. If the treasure wrapped in the parallel light ball is of the highest grade, and in the stronger whirlpool of demonic energy below, the treasure wrapped in the light ball is at least above the best grade. As for what grade, it is no longer clear. And know.
He gasped. What kind of existence is here, and why are there so many treasures hidden in the whirlpool of demonic energy? Are they all collected by the demon giant during his lifetime?
The spiritual consciousness spreads forward, like a curve, avoiding the water column generated by the whirlpool of demonic energy, extending forward in zigzags and twists and turns, after a long time.
After a long time, I finally saw a peaceful place of light.
The light was like a ring, vaguely visible, and it was similar to the exit recorded by Haochen. But this time, Cheng Ling was depressed.
The exit was at least several hundred feet away from him now. If he wanted to leave from there, he had to bypass these demonic water pillars. But everyone was hundreds of feet behind him and did not dare to step forward easily. It was conceivable that their ability to resist the demonic energy and whether they could rush into the vortex and reach the exit was still unknown.
Another point is that the light ball where Bai Suzhen's natal essence is located is far away from the exit. In order to save her, he must break into the center of the demonic vortex.
Not to mention whether the people behind her can pass through the demonic water column, even Bai Suzhen, she must not let her stay here forever, she must be rescued.
After thinking hard for a long time, I couldn't think of any strategy. It was decided to go back to the place where everyone was waiting and discuss it before making a decision.
Returning to where everyone was waiting, he told what he had seen. Everyone was silent. After a moment, Qinghuang asked: "Fellow Daoist Cheng, do you mean that the demonic energy has no effect on you?"
"That's not to say, it's just that in a short period of time, I can resist the erosion of demonic energy, but if it lasts for too long, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it."
Jian Yinghao asked with concern: "Then how long do you think you can last?"
"It should last for two hours!"
Jian Yinghao was convinced and said: "We might try to enter from the lower side of the sea water. Brother Cheng, you see, for some unknown reason, the influence of water pressure has been greatly reduced, perhaps because of the eruption of demonic energy. But in this way , we can dive to the bottom of the ocean floor.”
"Imagine that the demonic energy erupts from below. It is like a funnel. The demonic energy at the bottom is the most dense, but in other words, it is also the most stable. The area where the vortex is formed should not be large, and we are more likely to avoid it. high!"
After saying that, he drew a funnel shape in the water. There is an opening below. The higher you go up, the larger the area it covers!
Cheng Ling had a flash of inspiration, and this idea coincided with his own. However, these are just Jian Yinghao's speculations. Whether the truth is true remains to be verified. He then said: "In this case, let's try it. Enter from the bottom. Let's dive slowly first. Although we can't feel the water pressure now, we still have to be cautious!"
Everyone agreed one by one and dived towards the bottom of the sea. Sure enough, as Jian Yinghao speculated, the deeper you dive, the area covered by the demonic energy gradually shrinks, and everyone can move forward for a long distance, but the concentration of the demonic energy is higher. Fortunately, the water pressure did not change much, it was just slightly higher than before, and the group could still bear it.
Cheng Ling took the lead and continued to dive downwards. I don't know how much time passed, but I vaguely saw the ground on the seabed, which was less than a hundred feet away from everyone. After feeling the water pressure, it was a little higher than before, but everyone used a defensive light shield, but they could still withstand it.
Jiang Daoqi was hugged tightly by Xie Feng, and the defensive light shield expanded to surround the two people. Cheng Ling glanced at Xie Feng worriedly, and the latter nodded slightly, saying it was okay and he could bear it.
He felt relieved and continued to dive downwards. In less than a quarter of an hour, everyone landed on the sea floor. From a distance, the coverage area of the demonic energy was much smaller than the one above, almost less than one-tenth.
It's just that the holes where the demonic energy spurted out were all very violent, causing the ground at the bottom of the sea to tremble violently. Cheng Ling fired in a circle, and seeing that everyone's expressions were as usual, he slowly walked toward the center of the demonic energy!
