Seeing that the System still did not respond to his calls, Luo Xiu could not help but feel a little anxious. All along, no matter what kind of situation the System faced, it had never acted so abnormally. It had always been very reliable. This time, the System suddenly gave such an explanation, and then quietly hid its tracks. This made Luo Xiu have some bad suspicions about the System's reason for doing so.
In the past, no matter how difficult the situation was, Luo Xiu had always been very calm with the help of the System. Only this time, Luo Xiu felt that something was wrong. Since entering this secret territory, the System had been persuading Luo Xiu to be cautious and not to advance rashly.
Now, the System was even more thorough. It actually hid its tracks silently. No matter how Luo Xiu called out to it, it did not respond. This made Luo Xiu anxious.
Previously, whether it was in the Ethereal Immortal Palace, when he was discussing with his master and the others about entering the secret territory again, or outside the secret territory, the System had been very active in eliminating the threat of the Zerg Queen. However, the unforeseen event just now made Luo Xiu feel that something was wrong. It seemed that he did not have a very clear understanding of the System. What happened today made Luo Xiu feel that the System must be hiding something from him. Moreover, looking at the current environment, Luo Xiu felt that the System must be hiding something from him.
However, at this moment, Luo Xiu's heart was still somewhat bewildered. He carefully recalled what had happened during this period of time, and that vague thought suddenly became clear at this moment. The system's strange behavior had led to a conclusion that made him feel terrified, and that was, the system should be afraid of being discovered by this kind of Zerg queen. Moreover, there were still some other things that Luo Xiu couldn't understand. The system should have no choice but to find a way to hide its tracks, but what Luo Xiu didn't understand was why the system did this, and why it had to hide its tracks, because Luo Xiu had carefully searched his sea of consciousness, and that Nuwa figure of the system had long disappeared without a trace.
For a moment, Luo Xiu himself was a little confused. He did not know what he should do.
After thinking over and over again, Luo Xiu also calmed down. He carefully recalled the System's instructions and understood that his top priority now was to find a way to let his master distribute the life-saving little things that the System gave him. In this way, if something unexpected happened, Luo Xiu himself could also have a little protection.
Thinking of this, Luo Xiu no longer hesitated. He ignored his injuries and tried to hurry past these people to go to his master and the others. However, Luo Xiu soon found that something was wrong. Previously, when his spiritual consciousness was suppressed, Luo Xiu also thought that it was because of the Zerg Queen's powerful spiritual suppression. Now, the more he walked forward, the more effort he had to put in to take a step forward.
Fortunately, because Luo Xiu cultivated the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art, the strength of his physical body was far beyond that of an ordinary cultivator. Therefore, he could ignore the uncomfortable spiritual suppression brought about by the Zerg Queen's spiritual force.
Fortunately, the System gave him a warning in advance. Coupled with the little thing that the System gave him to defend against the spiritual shock, Luo Xiu relied on his strong physical body and finally rushed to the front of his master.
At this time, Guo Yangming and the rest of the 17 people also stopped moving forward because they were also affected by an extremely tyrannical mental attack in an instant. Fortunately, a few of them had extremely profound cultivation and avoided being turned into idiots by this mental attack.
Luo Xiu moved to the front of his master with great difficulty. In this position, the Zerg Queen's tyrannical spiritual shock made it difficult for him to breathe. He could not help but run his whole body, trying to make his breathing even. Then, he did not dare to delay and did not care about keeping it a secret. He directly took out a storage ring and stuffed it into his master's hand, and signaled his master to keep it.
"What's in here? Why are you giving it to Old Man?"
Guo Yangming was already suspicious of his disciple's abnormal behavior. Now that he saw that he did not care about his own safety and worked hard to move forward, he felt a little relieved. At this time, when he saw Luo Xiu actually stuffed a storage ring into his hand, he resisted the urge to open it immediately. Although he knew that now was not the time to talk, Guo Yangming still could not help but feel a little puzzled in his heart. Therefore, he opened his mouth and asked.
"I can't explain it clearly in such a short time. Master, please take out the things inside and distribute them to the uncle-masters. There will be a big crisis later.
My little life depends on the protection of the few of you. "
Because of the difficulty in breathing, Luo Xiu did not dare to say much. He gently twitched the corner of his mouth, endured the discomfort, and squeezed out these few words from between his teeth.
Looking down at the storage ring in his hand, Guo Yangming immediately looked at Old Demon Ren, who was cursing loudly. Then, as if he understood something, he took out the things in the storage ring and distributed them to the seven people around him one by one.
He did not say much and only reminded these people from the Qiantian Temple to pay attention to their safety. He also ignored Xiao Qingyun's puzzlement. Then, he secretly stuffed the last thing into Old Demon Ren's hand and gestured to him. Then, the few of them quietly approached Yang Hao and the others. Hu Sanquan was currently constantly throwing out formation discs of different sizes from his storage ring in an attempt to set up a defensive formation here. However, the spirit energy of heaven and earth here was extremely thin, so many cultivators present had no choice but to take out spirit stones to help him set up the formation. Seeing these people's actions, Luo Xiu glanced at the cave not far away. After thinking for a while, he left the area where the formation was set up. He did not know why, but he always had a feeling of uneasiness. Ever since his divine sense could not leave his body, he felt as if there was a knife on his back. As time passed, the feeling of being stared at at at this time was very uncomfortable.
One of the elders from the Ethereal Immortal Palace couldn't help but ask in bewilderment, "How is it, Palace Master? Can you solve the situation in front of us? What's going on? We just got close, but we can't move our bodies anymore."
"I can't for the time being. The situation we are facing now is indeed beyond Old Man's imagination."
Yang Hao also sighed, and his tone was a little dispirited. Looking at the more than 100 people around him, Yang Hao felt a little regretful. He should have listened to Luo Xiu's opinion before this.
Previously, he thought in his heart that with so many people present, a mere Insect Queen would not be able to affect them at all. Yang Hao was still quite confident in his own strength.
"Everyone, step back a little and let Old Man think of a solution.
If it doesn't work, let's join hands. I don't believe that with so many of us attacking together, we won't be able to deal with a beast. "Seeing the different expressions on everyone's faces, Yang Hao sighed and slowly said.
Luo Xiu, who was standing on the side, didn't care about anything else. While many people were still discussing spiritedly, he directly retreated until he was a few hundred meters away. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief. He wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead with some lingering fear.
Luo Xiu once again had a new understanding of his previous conjecture.
"Hehe, boy, why did you run so far?
You made this king look for you for a long time. "Just when Luo Xiu's spirit was a little relaxed, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
This was the voice of a man, and the tone was full of ridicule.
Luo Xiu's face went pale when he heard this voice that suddenly appeared, and he hurriedly looked around. When he saw there was no one around, he restrained the astonishment in his heart and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Why are you looking for me? I don't understand what you mean. "
"To be precise, this king didn't specially come to look for you. This king is looking for something in your body.
Since this king said this, you should be able to understand something. "
This voice was no longer as cold as before, and it was extremely gentle, causing Luo Xiu to be unable to produce any hostility. Luo Xiu was startled, and hurriedly calmed himself down, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
"I don't understand what you mean." Luo Xiu continued to pretend to be confused.
"You don't need to pretend. If it was ten thousand years ago, this king might have overlooked the thing in your body.
Now that This King has already fused with the Nine-tailed Fox's soul, causing This King's mental strength to undergo a further transformation, that thing in your body can forget about escaping This King's senses. Do you really think that you can do anything to This King with just a few tricks in your hands?
If that's what you think, then you're underestimating this king. Aren't you curious why the thing in your body suddenly became silent when this king appeared? "
Seeing that Luo Xiu was still pretending to be confused, the voice didn't get angry at all. Instead, its tone was as calm as ever. This voice also made Luo Xiu's originally nervous mood show signs of relaxing.
"Why?"
In the end, Luo Xiu could not help but ask. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Luo Xiu regretted it. Just as he was about to explain, he was suddenly stunned, because Luo Xiu, who had suddenly raised his head, discovered a man dressed in white suddenly appearing in front of him. The man was dressed in a white luxurious robe, and he was born with the aura of a king that ruled the world, outlining his slender and tall figure. The corners of his robe were embroidered with exquisite hidden flowers, and his entire person was emitting a kind of king's aura that could shake the world. He had a gentle and refined temperament, and there was not the slightest bit of inconsistency. The only flaw was that his eyes were unfocused, and his entire person was like a puppet, causing Luo Xiu's originally relaxed vigilance to suddenly raise.
Luo Xiu was very surprised. The person who appeared in front of him was obviously a cultivator whose mind was being controlled. But why would he look for him? Luo Xiu didn't understand. Obviously, now was not a good time for this puppet to look for him. Because at this time, there were many experts in this place, and every move was being watched by many people. Even if he wanted to do something, it would be very difficult for him to do it.
When the man heard Luo Xiu's words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve into a perfect arc. His originally unfocused eyes suddenly turned blood-red, but this red color had a unique sense of beauty. Luo Xiu praised in his heart. Although this puppet was being controlled by the Insect Queen, it didn't reduce his elegance. But what made Luo Xiu very puzzled was that he had never seen this person before. Just now outside the secret territory, Luo Xiu was bored and carefully looked at everyone who was about to enter the secret territory. But this person in front of him was unfamiliar.
Luo Xiu wasn't prepared for this man's appearance at all. But the more he thought about it, the more Luo Xiu felt that something was wrong. Luo Xiu wasn't very clear about what was wrong, but the uneasiness in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
He couldn't help but take the initiative to break the silence: "What do you mean by what you said before? And who are you?"
The man seemed to be very satisfied with Luo Xiu's reaction. He turned his back to Luo Xiu and looked at the group of people who were setting up the formation. The corners of his mouth curved into a very obvious smile, but he said very calmly: "What do I mean? You will understand in the future. As for who I am, hehe, didn't you already guess before? What's wrong?
You can't believe it, can you? "
"No …" Luo Xiu was about to refute, but the man waved his hand, and he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
His eyes were full of uncertainty as he looked at the man's back again. For a moment, hundreds of thoughts ran through his mind, and all kinds of guesses appeared in his heart.
The man didn't turn around. Instead, he seemed to be organizing his words, and his back was full of desolation. Then, Luo Xiu realized that something was wrong. He could no longer sense a trace of human aura from this man in white.
The man ignored Luo Xiu and said to himself: "Back then, the Insect Clan was able to rule the world because of the abnormal spiritual power of the Royal Clan.
More than 50,000 years ago, this King was left in a dead world by the existence in your body. Other than darkness, there was not the slightest bit of life. If there were no accidents, this King would have starved to death in at most 20,000 years due to the lack of nourishment. But one day, this King was summoned out of that desolate world by a Demon Race's Natal Summon. This King was discovered and brought back to this space.
From then on, this so-called Nine-tailed Demon Clan had been trying to reach some kind of agreement with me.
But they were unlucky. The only Nine-tailed Demon King wanted to take over my body when he was communicating with me. He can't blame me for what happened to him. "
Luo Xiu listened to the man's strange words, and he became more and more confused. In the beginning, Luo Xiu guessed that the owner of this voice might be after the system in his body. But as he spoke more and more, Luo Xiu became more and more confused.
"I really don't understand what you mean. Can you give me some hints?"
Seeing that the voice had the intention to continue, Luo Xiu looked at the group of people in front of him and couldn't help but interrupt him.
"You'll understand!"
The man's voice sounded again. Just when Luo Xiu thought that he was doomed, the next moment, the man's figure suddenly disappeared again, as if he had never appeared. There was no energy fluctuation. Luo Xiu was stunned. Then, no matter how Luo Xiu called out, there was no response.
Just when Luo Xiu was puzzled, some unknown change happened where Hu Sanquan and the others were. Balls of milky white light suddenly appeared around them. These balls of light were very concentrated, but there was a small white person in each ball of light. Everyone who noticed this scene felt their spirit become restless.
