Chapter 451 - 451 Demon Cave (2)
451 Demon Cave (2)
Thousands of people who had already gathered flew up. Song Shi looked at his token. A ‘Geng’ appeared on it, which meant that he was in the ‘Geng’ team.
Following the direction of the token, he quickly found a team. The team leader was a chubby monk in a yellow kasaya. He was sitting cross-legged with prayer beads in his hand and resting with his eyes closed.
The other teammates waited quietly. Song Shi sized up from the side and felt an aura similar to the Acalanātha Body. It should be because they were all Buddhist cultivation techniques cultivators.
He lowered his head and looked at the token. The leader of this team was the Mystic Light Saint. He was at the Void Refinement Realm and was on the same level as the Vajra Saint.
Suddenly, the fiery-red ship entered the Void, and Song Shi could no longer feel any Spiritual Qi.
The Mystic Light Saint opened his eyes and smiled. “We will patrol some of the demonic caves in the northern battlefield. These are the spirit stones provided in advance. Take them yourselves and pay attention to the consumption and restoration of your Nomological power.”
He explained the situation and raised his hand to distribute the bags of spirit stones. After Song Shi received them, he realized that there were three hundred of them. If he used them normally, it would be enough for half a year.
Song Shi was in need of this thing. He sat at the side and began to cultivate. He was not afraid of the risks he was about to face.
Mystic Light Saint saw his situation and smiled gently, “You’re quite broad-minded.”
“Is this kid the one that the Vajra Saint brought back? Why is he here?”
The Sky Surveillance Guards of the same level looked over in astonishment.
“That’s him. As for why he came to the more dangerous special Quests, I’m not sure.”
Song Shi’s unique background also attracted the attention of True Sages and was the topic of discussion by many Heaven Patrolling Guards.
For a new Sky Surveillance Guard to choose such a dangerous special Quest on his first patrol, the other cultivators could not help but feel strange or even suspicious of him.
After Zhang Yili found out about Song Shi’s background, he waited for Song Shi to stop cultivating and took the initiative to say, “Brother Song, you’re really awesome. Everyone here came because they had no choice, but you chose to participate as soon as you joined.”
“So be it. I don’t believe I’ll encounter danger on my first try.”
Song Shi did not care. No matter how dangerous the patrolling demonic cave was, it would only let him die. What was there to be afraid of?
“I hope so.”
Zhang Yili was speechless. This kid was so naive. When the time came, he would understand how dangerous it was.
The fiery red ship’s light became more and more obvious as it gradually entered the dark void. It was like a lamp moving forward in the night.
A deathly and cold aura surged over, and the entire ship fell silent again. It seemed a little oppressive.
Song Shi looked into the distance. After the light emitted by the ship spread for thousands of meters, it was drowned by a circle of darkness.
The further he went, the dimmer the light became. Song Shi felt bored just by looking at it, so he closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.
Half an hour later, the Purgatory Great Sage’s voice sounded, “We’re here. Start patrolling according to the plan. If you discover the demons, capture them alive first. If you really can’t capture them alive, choose to kill them.”
Song Shi opened his eyes. In the depths of the dark Void, there were purple-black holes floating. They were deep and seemingly endless. They were more than ten thousand feet wide, and there were hundreds of them.
How was this a hole? It was even larger than a sinkhole. The interior space must be very vast. No wonder so many people were patrolling. The demons could completely hide inside and scheme against them.
“Let’s go.”
The Mystic Light Saint stood up and swung the prayer beads in his hand. They lit up and floated under his feet, turning into flying Dharma treasures.
He pressed his palms together and stepped on the prayer beads and Dharma treasures. His entire body looked dignified, and a circle of pure white Buddhist light appeared behind his head, making him look like a bright Buddha.
“Amitabha, let’s go. Let’s finish exploring the first demon cave as soon as possible.”
The Mystic Light Saint flew towards one of the demonic caves. The hundred-odd Sky Surveillance Guards in Song Shi’s team moved. Amidst the colorful light of the Dharma treasures, everyone used various methods to fly up and follow behind, constantly approaching a purple-black demonic cave.
Song Shi did not have any Dharma treasures, so he used his Nomological power to fly. This was rather consuming. Zhang Yili was surprised. “Brother Song, don’t you have any Dharma treasures?”
“Yes, but they’re not flying Dharma treasures.”
Song Shi patted the Immortal Binding Rope at his waist.
“Just one?”
Zhang Yili was stunned. “You don’t even have Defense Dharma treasures?”
“…”
Song Shi really did not.
He shook his head. “My Dharma treasure is too powerful and high-level. I’m afraid I’ll scare you if I take it out.”
“Haha, this person is quite interesting.”
“I don’t think he has any Dharma treasures. After all, he just ascended. What Dharma treasures can he have?”
“Wasn’t he swallowed by the Demonic Refinement Ground? His Dharma treasures were probably destroyed.”
The surrounding people could not help but tease him, making the originally oppressive atmosphere relax a little.
Song Shi retorted, “Don’t talk nonsense. I just don’t have to use it.”
As he spoke, his Void Divine Body emitted light, and his entire body moved forward in the void like a fish.
This time, with Nomological power, his Void Divine Body could unleash its power. Even without using Dharma treasures, he could still walk on flat ground.
Everyone was surprised. They did not expect him to have such a method.
“Quiet.”
The Mystic Light Saint berated. He stared at the black hole in the distance and was sensing the situation inside.
Song Shi shut up and started his lottery.
He indeed had to take some Dharma treasures from the system. Otherwise, he would look too shabby.
Now that he was extremely poor, he could only obtain Dharma treasures through the lucky draw.
Ding… congratulations on drawing 100 supreme-grade spirit stones.
Song Shi saw that the item he had drawn was still useful.
“Continue drawing. I only need one Dharma treasure.”
He took out a stalk of spiritual medicine for the second time.
Before the third time, something abnormal happened.
“Be careful. There are spatial blades in the demonic cave.”
The Mystic Light Saint reminded loudly. At the same time, the void in front of him twisted and a layer of light appeared, blocking the grayish-black blade-like things.
Song Shi was envious. This thing was very dangerous. It was a special attack condensed from the power of the Void. It should be able to kill him easily.
It just wasn’t good to court death in front of so many people, so he couldn’t be bothered to explain.
“This is troublesome. There’s actually a spatial blade. This is definitely left behind by the demons on purpose.”
Zhang Yili said melancholically, “We hit the jackpot. The moment we arrived, we encountered a demon cave with demons.”
Song Shi did not speak. He watched seriously as the Mystic Light Saint mobilized the space to block the spatial blades in front of him with a raise of his hand. He could sense the mysteries of the Void Refinement Realm True Saint from it.
As the name suggested, the Void Refinement Realm was the level of cultivating the virtual entity. It could use the power of space and its strength far exceeded that of Soul Transformation cultivators.
He raised his hand and clenched it. He activated the methods in the Void Sutra and distorted the void. He could also easily use the power of the void to defend or attack, but he could not compare to the Mystic Light Saint.
“The further you go, the more you have to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth if you want to break through. It’s not easy to accumulate strength to break through.”
Song Shi thought to himself. He wanted to observe how the Mystic Light Saint dealt with the spatial attacks from all directions.
The other Sky Surveillance Guards could only hide at the back, not daring to rashly touch it. At the same time, they were vigilant of their surroundings to avoid being ambushed.
“Ah!”
A cultivator suddenly screamed. Half of his body was cut off by something and completely disappeared, leaving only blood spewing.
The surrounding cultivators’ expressions turned cold. They hurriedly stopped and activated their defensive methods to the maximum.
“It’s a spatial crack. Slow down. The spatial power here is very strong. It’s very difficult for the body to block it.”
Mystic Light Saint reminded him. His body shone brightly, illuminating the surroundings. Then, everyone was shocked to discover that the surroundings were covered in spiderweb-like lines.
There were many of these lines, and one of them cut off half of a cultivator’s body.
Everyone was shocked. They had not realized that there were so many spatial cracks here.
These cracks were extremely thin and could cut through their bodies like the sharpest weapons. Moreover, they were very difficult to detect.
“Saint, did this happen naturally, or did the demons do it on purpose?”
Zhang Yili asked nervously.
“I can’t tell, but with so many spatial cracks, this place is very safe for the demons who are familiar with this place.”
The Mystic Light Saint said meaningfully.
All the cultivators shivered. This was not only the most dangerous place, but also the safest place for the familiar demons.
“Be careful not to be swallowed by the spatial rift. The spatial changes in this spatial rift are very violent. It’s very difficult to escape after being swallowed. You don’t even know where you’ve been thrown.”
As soon as he reminded him, a crack suddenly expanded and swallowed an unlucky fellow.
As space twisted, the latter disappeared as soon as he entered, as if he had fallen into the endless Void.
The other members broke out in cold sweat and quickly dodged, but Song Shi was rather envious.
If it were him, he would be able to leave right away. When he returned, he would say that he had been thrown not far away.
Song Shi looked on regretfully and hurriedly used the Void Sutra to probe the surroundings. When he sensed the fluctuations in the crack beside him, his eyes lit up and he deliberately walked closer.
