Deep underground in the center of the mountain range, Leng Shiqi continued to drill forward, but he was still dissatisfied.
The Soul Departing Scorpion said, "Can't you go faster?"
Leng Shiqi opened his mouth. He didn't know what to call the Soul Departing Scorpion, so he could only say, "Senior, this is already junior's fastest speed. Once we avoid the spirit cultivators above and return to the ground, it will be faster."
"Forget it, since you and I have signed an equal blood contract, I will lend you some strength." As the Soul Departing Scorpion spoke, it spat out a purple mist from its mouth.
Leng Shiqi inadvertently sucked it in, and his body was surrounded by waves of purple light, and his aura continued to soar!
Under this, his speed was more than three times faster!
Leng Shiqi was familiar with this feeling. After all, when he was possessed by the Demon Spirit, he had borrowed the power of the Demon Spirit. However, he was still a little worried and asked, "Senior, will this attract the attention of those two?"
The Soul Departing Scorpion climbed onto Leng Shiqi's shoulder and said, "You are quite cautious. Don't worry, they won't have time soon."
"Hmm?"
Leng Shiqi was a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask more. At this moment, he suddenly felt a monstrous wave of spirit energy coming from behind him!
He was clearly deep underground, but he could clearly feel the earth trembling, and there was a heaven-shaking sound in his ears!
If he was on the ground, he would be able to see a purple mushroom cloud rising from the center of the mountain range!
With the Soul Departing Scorpion's body as the center, the raging purple cloud spread out. Everywhere it passed, everything was razed to the ground. The mountain peaks collapsed, the earth dragons turned over, and the explosion was like a heavenly punishment that almost overturned the entire center of the mountain range!
Leng Shiqi activated his Supercilious Eyes, and only then did he realize that there were not many of the Four Realms of Heaven and Man experts left. Fortunately, his speed had increased explosively earlier, allowing him to run to the periphery of the central region. Since he was deep underground, he had not been affected by the shockwaves.
"What, what is that?!"
The Soul Departing Scorpion said viciously, "That is my original body's self-destruction."
“!!!”
Leng Shiqi didn't know what to say anymore. There was only shock in his heart. The self-destruction of a Rank Seven Great Demon. No wonder there was such a terrifying destructive power!
"Humph, Nan Men Yun of the Imperial Beast Abode and Xie Pengyu of the Blood Beast Sect!
You've ruined my hundreds of years of cultivation. Sooner or later, I'll make you pay back a hundredfold!
This is just a small gift. "
Leng Shiqi could clearly feel the Soul Departing Scorpion's soaring hatred, even calling out the word "old mother".
However, he was also a little impressed by the Soul Departing Scorpion's courage. To be able to decisively self-destruct his own Great Demon body, this kind of courage was really something that ordinary people did not have.
Although he was shocked and impressed, his speed did not decrease in the slightest.
Now, those experts of the Four Realms of Heaven and Earth had suffered heavy casualties from the self-detonation of the Soul Departing Scorpion. Even Nanmen Yun and Xie Pengyu were probably not having a good time.
They couldn't even take care of themselves right now, much less carefully investigate the aura. Leng Shiqi tried his best to drill into the inner area.
When he completely reached the inner area, Leng Shiqi directly returned to the ground. He stepped on a faint purple cloud, his body like cotton floating in the wind. It looked like he was floating slowly, but every time he moved, he would move dozens of feet away!
Leng Shiqi did not care about the changes behind him. He sped forward silently. When the purple cloud in his body was exhausted, he had already run to the border between the inner area and the outer area.
At this time, his speed suddenly slowed down. The Soul Departing Scorpion said, "We finally got rid of those two old ghosts for the time being. However, your body more or less has a trace of my aura. Just in case, it's better to run as far as possible."
Leng Shiqi's footsteps still did not stop. However, without the support of the Soul Departing Scorpion's power, his speed was clearly not as fast as before.
After all, his Spirit Steps was a movement type spirit technique that was more useful in battle, and not a light body type spirit technique that focused on speed.
After running like this for about an hour, they finally reached the outer area of the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range!
Leng Shiqi panted and stopped using Ghost Walk and Spirit Steps because he only had less than 20% of his spirit power left!
He hurriedly swallowed two spirit qi recovery pills and panted, "Senior, it's far enough."
The Soul Departing Scorpion said, "Yes, rest for a while. They came here to capture me.
The self-destruction of my physical body in front of them completely cut off their thoughts. Next, they might directly return to the sect. "
Leng Shiqi heard this and sank into the ground to recover his spirit power. The Soul Departing Scorpion said, "Human, what is your name?"
"Junior is Leng Shiqi."
"Leng Shiqi, I don't know how you found the heaven fiend soul crystal, nor do I know how you collected it.
But I have to admit, if it wasn't for you, even if my soul switched bodies, I wouldn't have been able to escape.
But if you didn't meet me, you would also have died under my self-destruction. You and I both saved each other's lives, so we don't owe each other anything.
Now that you and I have signed an equal blood contract, I will tell you the truth.
In the future, I need you to help me recover my strength. If you have any conditions, just say it. "
"Junior doesn't dare. It is junior's honor to serve senior!"
"Hmph, you humans have always been so hypocritical, unlike us fiends. If you help me, I will naturally help you. Of course, if you don't say it, then forget it."
"Uh …"
Leng Shiqi could only 'awkwardly' say, "Senior, junior does have a headache right now and wants to ask senior for advice."
What he wanted the most now was to break through to the Spirit Pulse Realm as soon as possible. With the Soul Departing Scorpion that had lived for hundreds of years, there should be a way.
The Soul Departing Scorpion said, "Don't call me senior or junior, it makes me confused. My name is Nine Leave.
Right now, I am only a rank two fiend. You and I can be equals. "
"Before Nine Leave … is there a way for me to break through to the Spirit Pulse Realm in a short time?"
"Hm?"
Nine Leave's bean-sized eyes stared at Leng Shiqi carefully. She continued, "The biggest problem with your cultivation is that it is not pure enough. If you slowly polish it, you won't be able to break through in a few years, let alone a short time."
Although Leng Shiqi already knew this, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Nine Leave's tone changed again. "But it's not that there is no way.
I remember that there is an old ferret with a spirit spring. He has been tinkering with the spirit spring all these years.
If you can refine spirit power in that spirit spring, you will only need a few days to sublimate your sea of qi into a spirit sea! "
Spirit spring?!
Leng Shiqi once read in a book that when the spirit qi of heaven and earth was condensed to the extreme, it would become a drop of spirit liquid. Countless drops of spirit liquid gathered together to form a spirit spring!
But according to what he knew, there were only a few spirit springs in the Thunderblaze Dynasty. He didn't expect there to be one in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range.
Nine Leave said, "If you want to cultivate in that spirit spring, it will be a little troublesome. I can help you think of a way.
But I also need a large amount of beast cores to recover my cultivation. You have to get them for me after this. "
Leng Shiqi nodded deeply. "Deal!"
