The Demon Sealing Star Vortex was a kind of distorted void. In this place, many substances were ineffective. Continents floated in the void, and the continents were full of plants. It was strange and indescribable, as if they had been separated from a complete world.
Luo Kai and the others were on a giant floating island. He rejected Nan Feng's invitation and walked alone on the island, carefully feeling the difference of this world.
He could feel that this strange area had oxygen and other kinds of energy. It was almost no different from a normal world. However, Mu Xinghe had repeatedly ordered him not to take off his battle suit.
The battle suit on his body had a self-circulation system that could provide oxygen, determine changes in the external gravitational force, and strengthen the body so that the wearer would always be in the best state. It not only provided assistance, but also isolated the wearer from the outside world.
Luo Kai slowly began to speed up. He stepped on the Big Dipper and flew at full speed through the mountains. The more he ran, the faster and easier he ran. He began to try to cultivate the Taixuan Dojo's body-refining technique, the Nine Forging Scriptures.
A wave of heat slowly spread from his chest to his entire body. It was like thousands of rivers intertwining with each other. The process repeated itself over and over again. After each cycle, he felt that his body and mind were much happier.
The grass under his feet was very soft, but there were only plants and no animals. He tried to communicate with the plants, but it was a pity that this was only a memory of someone else. Everything was just a form.
After running for a long time, he stopped in front of a small hill. After stopping, he immediately felt as if his muscles were being torn apart. He raised his head and fell down. He had not felt this for a long time. The Nine Forging Scriptures seemed to use the pain of the body to create strength.
The sky was already dark. Without realizing it, he had been running for an entire afternoon, but he did not see anything strange.
Luo Kai's expression suddenly changed. A figure appeared in the distance. The figure was graceful. It was a woman.
The woman looked at him and was a little surprised. Then she smiled and said, "Hello."
This woman was an entry-level apprentice of the Hill Ridge Valley. Her name seemed to be Yi Qing. She lived near Luo Kai's residence. They were neighbors, but they had never interacted with each other.
The woman asked him in confusion, "Student Yaoyang, why didn't you find a team?"
Luo Kai smiled. "I'm not good at dealing with people, so I'm alone. Why are you alone?"
"Sigh, I'm ugly, and I've just cultivated the Great Purity Origin Sensing Technique. No one is willing to bring me along. There's only one person left!"
Luo Kai's eyes flickered as he complimented, "If Miss Yi Qing is ugly, then there would be no beautiful people in the world. Furthermore, your cultivation is much stronger than mine, and I still haven't cultivated the Primordial Sensing Art."
Yi Qing chuckled and said, "You don't have to be modest. In my opinion, you are the strongest among the disciples of the Hill Valley. 99% pure human. I have never heard of that before. Why don't we work together? I know a lot about the spells of the Sacred Hall. I won't drag you down!"
At this time, the gray sky was about to turn dark. Luo Kai muttered to himself and agreed, "Okay, it's already late. I'll keep watch. You rest."
But Yi Qing shook her head and said, "Neither of us can rest. Didn't you notice?
Along the way, we haven't seen a single creature, not even some snakes, insects, rats, or ants. Although the Demon Sealing Star Jade has been cleaned up many times, there might still be some fish that escaped the net. So, neither of us should rest. "
Luo Kai nodded and sat cross-legged on the ground to recover his strength.
The gray fog gradually turned black, blocking the only starlight. Unlike the darkness in space, this place was like an abyss. Not even a trace of light could be seen.
In the sky, the endless darkness turned into a whirlpool. The lonely and cold aura was about to swallow the two of them.
Luo Kai frowned and said, "Do you want to make a fire?"
"You can't make a fire. It will attract demon beasts."
There seemed to be a rustling sound in the darkness. Luo Kai stopped what he was doing and listened carefully. The sound was intermittent, and Yi Qing also heard it. She sat up, and a crescent-shaped dagger appeared in her hand.
The sound was getting closer and closer. Luo Kai sensed something and whispered, "The sound is coming from underground!"
A black scorpion the size of a millstone scuttled out from behind the small hill, and a black shadow flashed towards Yi Qing. Yi Qing shouted, and a translucent green light shield appeared in front of her, but immediately afterwards, the light shield shattered with a crack.
Her face turned pale. A round nano shield appeared in front of her and blocked the black shadow.
Luo Kai also made his move. The battle bracelet of the nano armor transformed into a long blade. The blade whistled and the snow-white blade slashed at a pair of giant pincers. The force was so great that the black scorpion was knocked back.
Once in combat, the armor would be activated to continuously stimulate the muscles of the whole body and inject endless power. With the help of this super equipment, even an ordinary person would become a superhuman.
The giant scorpion raised a pair of giant pincers. A pair of cold eyes stared at the two people. Suddenly, it turned into a black shadow and attacked Yi Qing. Yi Qing knew that the armor's energy shield couldn't stop it and immediately blocked in front of her with the round nano shield.
Luo Kai used the Nine Forging Scriptures technique to deal with the enemy. He stepped on the Seven Stars and went past the pincers to slash at the base of the giant pincers.
The giant scorpion was very wary of the blade. It gave up on Yi Qing and turned around to stab at him with its tail.
Luo Kai bent his body to avoid the giant pincers. The blade followed the momentum and rotated.
In an instant, the two people and the scorpion were engaged in a fierce battle.
If it was just Luo Kai alone, it wouldn't be so troublesome. But with this woman beside him, it was different. He felt that this woman was a bit strange and her appearance was a bit coincidental.
In this era, the physical fitness of humans was very good. Almost no one was weaker than a physique warrior. With the help of body refining techniques and super technology, their combat power was almost exponentially increased.
Body refining techniques could greatly excavate the potential of the human body. Whether it was strength, reaction time, or speed, it would slowly produce a rebirth. The advanced nano armor made up for the weakness of insufficient defense. It also had a comprehensive data push to analyze the enemy's weaknesses.
A person who was proficient in body refining techniques wearing an advanced mecha armor would not be weaker than a complete Direbeast.
Yi Qing's armor was even more advanced than Luo Kai's. Her Tai Qing Sense had also been cultivated to a certain level. She could control a crescent blade remotely. With a crisp sound, the giant scorpion's head was cut off by the blade.
After the giant scorpion died, a black flow of energy flew out of the corpse and into Yi Qing's armor.
The Demon Sealing Star Vortex was admittedly a dangerous place, but it also hid great fortune. The Nine Extremes Sect revered the Chaos Unity Qi, and the Demon Sealing Star Vortex's demonic energy was one of them. It was the purest Chaos Unity Qi. It was a material for making equipment or the most important thing for body refining.
Just as they were about to cultivate for a while, a low whining sound came from afar. It seemed that some demon was coming. The two stood up.
A green shield of light enveloped the two of them and illuminated their surroundings.
Three strange demon dogs appeared in the range of their senses. Their eyes flashed with a cold green light. Their bodies were as large as calves. The scary thing was that their mouths did not cover their teeth, revealing sharp blade-like fangs.
The demon dogs growled and were not in a hurry to attack. They spread out in a fan shape and surrounded the two of them in front of the small hill.
A round shield appeared beside Yi Qing. At the same time, a silver light slowly rotated in front of her. It was the crescent blade.
The Demon Hounds kept growling. They could not hold it in any longer and pounced at Yi Qing. The crescent blade spun in the air and cut a wound on the back of one of the Demon Hounds. However, no blood flowed out. It could not cut through the Demon Hound's fur.
A layer of black light covered the demon dog's fur. Yi Qing said in fear, "These demon dogs have learned a secret technique!"
