Chapter 271 - The Devouring Between the Tarnished!
Chapter 271: Chapter 271: The Devouring Between the Tarnished!
There were only these six sealed gates?
Tarnished who left from other places?
Ren Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard that. Then, he shook his head and said, “There should be more than these six sealed gates. Senior Long Yi seemed to have mentioned it before. However, we can’t rule out the possibility that the tarnished have other ways to get out.”
Zhao yuheng said, “These aren’t things that we need to consider for the time being. Let’s enter the forbidden land first.”
The few people around nodded. That was indeed the case.
Currently, the most important thing to do was to enter the fobidden land and increase their strength.
No matter what kind of situation they would encounter next, only by possessing stronger strength would they be able to calmly deal with it.
Soon, Ren Qi and the others returned to their respective military camps to rest. Compared to the military, they needed more rest.
It didn’t matter if the military didn’t sleep for a few days or nights. They would just be a little tired. However, if they didn’t rest, they wouldn’t just be a little tired.
At the same time, Tina once again entered Ren Qi’s tent.
The Dark Elf Queen quietly watched from a distance as Tina entered Ren Qi’s tent and gently bit her lip.
Ten minutes later, Tina came out of Ren Qi’s tent.
When the Dark Elf Queen noticed this, her expression was a little complicated.
Then, the Dark Elf Queen quickly left this place and headed to the place where the tarnished gathered.
Not long after the Dark Elf Queen left, the Elemental Elf Queen arrived at the spot where the Dark Elf Queen had just been.
Looking at the spot where the Dark Elf Queen had left, the Elemental Elf Queen secretly sighed.
“Little sister, little sister, since you’re not tempted, why are you jealous?”
“This guy’s territory is filled with succubi. Feng Ya and Yuna both have feelings for him. If you’re jealous, they’ll be jealous by a lot.”
The Elemental Elf Queen looked at Ren Qi’s tent and shook her head. Then, she turned around and left.
Three hours later, Elise led the succubi army and the other soldiers who had gone out to hunt and returned to this place.
Elise had a smile on her face. After three hours of hunting, they had killed nearly a thousand tarnished and obtained nearly 300 soul orbs from them.
This was already a great harvest!
A thousand tarnished were able to obtain three hundred soul orbs, and their luck was considered very good.
The most important thing was that these three hundred soul orbs could be equivalent to ten times the soul power of a Tier 9 monster.
The most important thing was that they only hunted for three hours and obtained such a harvest.
There were simply too many tarnished here!
If they could continue to hunt here, then the soul power used by the Holy Stones would become very abundant.
After returning to the camp, the various soldiers also returned to their respective camps to recuperate and rest.
Although they were soldiers and did not need to rest for too long, it was naturally best to be able to rest for a while.
This time, Ren Qi and the others rested for eight hours before they were woken up by Long Yi.
Ren Qi and the others came to the giant gate and found that Long Yi had already rearranged the dark divine dragons guarding the place.
The dark divine dragons left behind 200 followers to enter the third sealing gate, while the rest stayed behind to continue guarding the place.
Long Yi called Ren Qi and the others to his front, he looked at them and slowly said, “There shouldn’t be too many tarnished behind the third sealing gate. Even if there are, they will be existences that have surpassed level nine and are half-step Saint-tier.”
“Behind the third sealing gate, most of the creatures are corpse limbs. Moreover, the probability of encountering a Corpse-limb King will also increase by a lot. If you are unwilling to enter, you can stop here.”
“You can also hunt here. I will bring you out after I return from the sealing gate.”
The eyes of Ren Qi and the others flickered slightly when they heard Long Yi’s words. They did not expect Long Yi to say this.
The danger behind the next sealing gate would be even stronger. Ren Qi and the others had expected this, but they did not expect Long Yi to directly persuade them to retreat.
Corpse limbs were a little more strange than the attacks of the tarnished, but in terms of strength, they were a little stronger than the tarnished, but they were not much stronger.
As for the Corpse-limb King, it should have at least the strength of a half-step Saint-tier, so it would be a little troublesome to deal with it.
However, the Corpse-limb King was formed from a large number of corpse limb. Compared to a normal half-step Saint-tier expert, its strength and speed were a little stronger. However, its attacking methods were a little simple.
The Corpse-limb King they had encountered before basically only had normal attacks. Therefore, it did not have any other attacking methods.
Ren Qi was definitely unwilling to stop here. Although this place was able to continuously hunt for soul orbs, how could they stop here?
Ren Qi looked at Zhao Yuheng and the others and directly said, “I want to enter the forbidden land. If you feel that it is dangerous, you can stop at this moment.”
Zhao Yuheng also said without hesitation, “I will go as well.”
Regardless of what benefits the forbidden land would bring, it was likely that there was a secret regarding the black fog there. Zhao Yuheng would definitely head there if she could obtain more information.
Ren Qi and Zhao Yuheng expressed their stance, and the others also expressed that they wanted to enter the sealed land together.
Tian Jizi said directly, “What kind of joke is this? We’re already here, and you want us to leave? Senior Long Yi, don’t tell me you want to abandon us and obtain the benefits of the forbidden land alone?”
Long Yi said, “The reason I advised you to stop is because there are some changes in the situation here.”
“Logically speaking, we shouldn’t have met the Corpse-limb King so early. At most, there will be some corpse limbs here.”
“Behind the third sealing gate is the territory of corpse limbs.”
“But now, there is a Corpse-limb King here. This means that the devouring between the tarnished has become more intense, and behind the third sealing gate will be even more dangerous.”
“Devouring?” Ren Qi frowned. “Senior Long Yi, are you saying that the tarnished will devour each other?”
Long Yi nodded. “Of course. The tarnished were born from another plane behind the forbidden land that was tarnished by the divine war. How many Tier-9 tarnished can there be?”
“There are so many Tier-9 tarnished now, and it’s all because the tarnished are devouring each other.”
“If there were no other flesh and blood, the tarnished would also attack and devour each other.”
“However, the tarnished are also divided into different races. Devouring also gives priority to the tarnished of other races. The tarnished who devour their own races are the ones who have no other choice.”
“In fact, compared to before they were tarnished, these tarnished have just lost most of their rationality. They still have basic instincts.”
Hearing Long Yi’s words, Ren Qi and the others’expressions became grave.
According to Long Yi, there shouldn’t be any Corpse-limb King appearing in the second seal gate here. However, they had encountered Corpse-limb King before.
This meant that the tarnished here had already devoured each other at a very high intensity. One guess was that the Corpse-limb King behind the third seal gate were also devouring each other, giving birth to even more powerful Corpse-limb Kings.
However, Ren Qi and the others glanced at each other before expressing that they wanted to continue.
After all, their combined strength was not considered weak.
Long Yi nodded when he saw this.
Although Ren Qi and the others would take a portion of the spoils of war, the combat strength that Ren Qi and the others displayed was something that Long Yi needed.
Without any hesitation, the dragon soared into the air and arrived in the air above the third sealing gate.
The half-step Saint-tier dark divine dragons followed Long Yi and soared into the air.
Compared to the second sealing gate, the third sealing gate was clearly more tightly guarded. If one wanted to open it, one would need even greater strength.
Following the jet-black dragon breath that gushed out from the mouth of the dark divine dragon, the third seal gate revealed a ray of light and directly guided the jet-black dragon breath to the seal gate.
The jet-black dragon breath was like liquid as it slowly circulated on the third seal gate.
Subsequently, jet-black light slowly scattered and landed in front of the huge gate, quickly forming a jet-black light gate.
The passageway that led to the third sealing gate appeared!
Long Yi did not hesitate and directly entered the pitch-black light gate.
A large number of dark divine dragons followed behind Long Yi and quickly entered the black light gate in front.
Ren Qi and the others followed closely and quickly entered the black light gate in front.
After the last soldier entered the black light gate in front of them, the black light gate slowly disappeared.
The surroundings once again fell into silence. The dark divine dragon, who had stayed behind to guard the place, took a look at the extent of the dark fire’s burning. After which, he went out to hunt the tarnished and obtain soul orbs to maintain the dark fire’s burning.
A familiar feeling of dizziness once again spread. Ren Qi felt his vision turn black. After which, his feet once again landed on the ground.
Before he could completely recover, Ren Qi felt a wave of heat directly spreading over his face. This caused Ren Qi to immediately frown.
Soon after, Ren Qi saw a bright red color.
In front of him was a completely bright red world. The bright red color seemed to have been completely dyed by the bright red color.
The faint black fog within it remained the original black color in this bright red world.
Along with this crimson color came an extremely hot temperature.
The ground cracked, revealing a faint crimson glow. It was like a baking machine, continuously revealing the hot temperature.
It was completely different from the scene behind the second sealing gate. This place was extremely hot!
However, the heat here had not reached the point where it could not be endured. It was just like it was always the hottest time in summer. It continued and would never change.
In front of them was a huge plain. The ground of the plain was dry and cracked, and a crimson light shone from below. However, after careful observation, they found that there was no lava below the ground, which made everyone slightly relieved.
If this place was covered in lava, it would be really difficult to go over.
Long Yi looked at the scene in front of him, he said, “The most common ones here are the corpse limbs of lava behemoths. They are the corpse limbs formed from the corpses of several lava-type tarnished. Their defense is very strong, and they have fire attacks. You guys should be careful.”
Ren Qi and the others nodded when they heard Long Yi’s words. Their expressions became solemn.
At this moment, the ground in front of them suddenly cracked, and a scarlet worm crawled out from it.
Following that, a huge rock-like mouth suddenly rushed out from below and opened its mouth to swallow the scarlet worm!
