When Guo Yangming heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback. He suddenly realized something and said, "That's true. Since they aren't from the Ninth Netherworld Race, then there's no point in fighting them head-on."
After Guo Yangming finished speaking, he no longer hesitated. His hands rapidly formed a series of seals as he muttered under his breath. In the end, he even shouted in a low voice, "Ice and Fire Duo!"
As Guo Yangming formed the last seal, a milky-white flame flew out from his hand and went straight for the praying mantis.
The praying mantis seemed to be very disdainful of this ball of milky-white flame. It waved its blade and slashed at it. However, the moment the two collided, the milky-white flame was like a maggot attached to a bone. It firmly spread through the long blade and directly spread to the praying mantis' body.
Just as the praying mantis was about to wave its hand and use a divine ability to get rid of the flame, it suddenly let out a miserable shriek.
Because the shriek was so loud, even Old Demon Ren, who was standing at the side, raised his head and looked over in astonishment.
"Damn!
Are you serious? I only asked you to burn it with fire. Who told you to use this thing?
Don't tell me you want to bring a portion of barbecued meat back for your disciple? "
Seeing Guo Yangming use such a powerful divine ability made Old Demon Ren feel like he was using a cannon to kill a mosquito. After witnessing this scene with his own eyes, Old Demon Ren was a little stunned. His tone was filled with confusion and astonishment.
He had a deep understanding of this move of Guo Yangming's. The two of them had fought more than once and both of them felt an inexplicable sense of fear towards this divine ability. One must know that ordinary fire-type divine abilities could only use high-temperature flames to burn the enemy to death.
However, Guo Yangming's Two Layered Heavens of Ice and Fire took a different approach. Although he also borrowed the powerful heat of the flames to achieve the goal of killing his enemies, the main attack method of this mystique lay in the two words, ice and fire.
One had to know that it was extremely difficult to instantly cool down a high temperature or even freeze a person. However, Guo Yangming's ice and fire god art could instantly change the temperature from extremely high to extremely low. During this process, the time taken would definitely not exceed one second.
As a result, no matter how powerful one's defensive abilities were, they wouldn't be able to resist this attack. They would only be able to endure it like a live target. Those with stronger cultivations might be able to survive, but those with weaker cultivations or weaker defenses might die instantly.
This was because no matter what kind of defense they used, they would not be able to offset the intense energy impact from the high temperature to the freezing temperature. One had to know that the reason why Guo Yangming created this divine ability was because he saw a strange scene by chance. He instantly comprehended and created this divine ability.
This divine ability's requirement for the comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Currently, many people in the Qiantian Temple were trying to cultivate this divine ability, but even Old Demon Ren was unable to succeed.
Almost everyone had been taught by Guo Yangming, but they still couldn't understand the trick behind it.
Originally, Luo Xiu had hopes of cultivating this divine ability because he had five Nascent Souls in his body, each of which belonged to one of the five elements. This could solve the condition of both ice and fire existing at the same time. However, due to the collapse of the system and the fact that he had never cultivated this divine ability before, this increased the difficulty for him. Of course, Luo Xiu didn't know that his master had such a unique skill.
"How is that possible!
Old Man isn't that bored. The reason why I did this is because I heard from Luo Xiu that this thing in front of us needs to be dealt with in one go using a powerful attack. It's impossible to slowly grind this thing to death.
If you don't believe me, Old Man will withdraw the divine ability and you can sense it yourself. "
Guo Yangming was speechless at Old Demon Ren's bewilderment. He explained the reason why he made such a big fuss to Old Demon Ren. In the end, he had a helpless expression. Previously, he had some doubts, but now he was certain. Previously, these people, including Old Demon Ren, didn't have the slightest bit of trust in his disciple.
He agreed with Luo Xiu's words very much. If this thing could be easily dealt with, why would his lawless disciple be so cautious?
Therefore, when Guo Yangming discovered that this thing wasn't from the Netherworld Race, he immediately made a move and used his strongest attack to kill it. For the sake of safety, he didn't hesitate even if he had to pay a certain price.
"That won't be necessary. In that case, hurry up and deal with it. We have to think of a way to seal this place first, lest other dangers appear later."
Upon hearing his words, Old Demon Ren waved his hand speechlessly, indicating that he wasn't interested. Then, he walked to the side and stared at the whirlpool that had stopped spinning.
"Hey, Old Guo, don't you find it a little strange?
Logically speaking, if this Zerg race really reproduced like Luo Xiu said, the number of offspring they produced would definitely be beyond our imagination. However, why is there only one of them in front of us? Could it be that there are other Zergs in this whirlpool? Or have the other Zergs been eaten by this thing in front of us as food? "
Old Demon Ren's eyes lit up as he stared at the huge whirlpool in front of him. He couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked agitatedly.
As for why he was so agitated, it was obviously because if it was really as he guessed, there were countless Zergs in this whirlpool. Once he killed all of them, his Soul Devouring Gonfalon would be able to upgrade once again.
"How would I know? However, after hearing what you said, Old Man feels that things might really be as you think. It's just that no matter what, it's not like what we guessed before, that this is a passage to the Ninth Netherworld."
Guo Yangming looked at the long saber in his hand and clicked his tongue in amazement. However, his mind seemed to be completely elsewhere at this moment, and his tone was very strange. This was because the shape of the bone saber in his hand was very peculiar, just like a sickle. He couldn't help but think about other things. At the same time, he also realized that the long saber in his hand was very familiar.
"Look at what this is. For some reason, Old Man has a feeling that I seem to have seen this long saber somewhere before. The bone in front of me also feels very familiar."
Seeing Old Demon Ren looking at the long saber in his hand, although Guo Yangming was a little puzzled, he didn't think much of it. He directly handed it over and clicked his tongue in amazement.
He couldn't help but be surprised because he discovered the strangeness of this long saber through comparison and spiritual detection. The forging process of this thing seemed to have been lost for many years. Moreover, this bone saber in his hand seemed to be made from the rib bone of a Nine-tailed Demon Fox.
When this ancient saber attacked, it would be accompanied by a weak spiritual attack effect. It was no wonder that he almost got hit by this thing when he was careless previously. Just now, he thought that it was a magical ability unique to the mantis. It was only at this moment that he understood the reason.
"Tsk tsk!
The Nine-tailed Demon Fox Clan is really unlucky. It's fine that they were enslaved when they were alive, but even after they died, their bones were actually used as weapons. It's simply a tragedy.
However, why do I feel that it's very familiar? I seem to have seen this aura somewhere before.
No, wait!
Now that I think about it, when we were dodging those light balls, this old man faintly felt the presence of this aura. At that time, I thought it was the aura of the Demonic Beasts in the Secret Realm. Now that I think about it, there were other Nine-Tailed Demon Foxes not far from us. Perhaps they had already transformed into Nine-Tailed Demon Foxes and mingled with us. This old man was wondering where this aura came from.
However, now that he saw this bone saber in front of him, Old Man somewhat understood. "
While casually playing with the bone saber in his hand, Old Demon Ren was suddenly taken aback. He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly spoke with a look of realization.
"We were all careless. The Zerg Queen that Lu Xiu mentioned should have already escaped when we first came in. It's just that we didn't notice any abnormalities. The sudden attack just now was obviously a means to confuse us so that we wouldn't be able to fend for ourselves. Thinking about it this way, it should also have the intention of luring the tiger away from the mountain.
Heh heh, an insect actually has intelligence comparable to a human. Moreover, an average human isn't as smart as it. This is simply unimaginable. Although some demon beasts also have such high intelligence, but to be able to make such a meticulous plan, it can be seen that this Insect Queen is definitely an excellent opponent for us to deal with.
If this matter is really as your disciple said, then it's going to be very lively.
It's no wonder that a mere Zerg clan can actually cause such a commotion in the entire Azure Cloud Continent. They actually sent an important person like the Young Manor Master here to seek help. Old Man also somewhat understands why your disciple is so worried. "
Without waiting for Guo Yangming to reply, Old Demon Ren, who thought carefully for a while, continued to speak again. His tone was also full of admiration, as if having an opponent like the Zerg clan was an opportunity for him.
"There's no meaning in talking about this matter now. The most urgent thing now is to think of a good way to block this strange vortex in front of us. The best way is of course to find a way to destroy it. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave this place with peace of mind. Who knows what other things are behind it?
Although there's only one insect now, we still have to be on guard. If it's really like what your disciple said and it's a base of the Zerg clan and we don't pay enough attention to it, then we'll be in for a tragedy. "
Guo Yangming's gaze was drifting as he looked at the vortex suspended in mid-air. There was a rare seriousness in his tone.
"It shouldn't be as exaggerated as you said!
I think that there's an unknown world behind it, but it should be the place where the Zerg Queen stayed.
The Old Man was interested in going in to take a look, but he didn't know if he could make it in time. If he was really exiled into the void, then it would be troublesome.
Oh right, I want to ask you if you still want this secret realm. If you want it, you'll have to put in some effort. Let's think of a way to capture it, and I'll help you bring it back to guard your house. "
Old Demon Ren didn't seem to care about Guo Yangming's seriousness. He asked in a relaxed tone, and his tone was also full of ridicule.
Seeing how easily Old Demon Ren spoke, Guo Yangming curled his lips and had a look of disdain on his face. Although it wasn't easy to capture a small world, it also depended on the person. Due to Old Demon Ren's cultivation technique, his mastery of the power of space far surpassed Guo Yangming's, who had cultivated the five elements.
In this case, as long as no one interfered, Old Demon Ren could almost always succeed in doing things that were very difficult for others.
"Yes!
Of course, it's just that the most important thing now is to figure out what exactly is behind this vortex. Other things are secondary.
However, there's no need to rush this matter. The most important thing now is that you actually said that the treasured land ahead is useful for Luo Xiu's cultivation. Then, let's go out once and bring them all in. As for how much they can reap, it will depend on their luck later. "
Upon hearing Old Demon Ren's words, Guo Yangming immediately reacted. Since he wasn't sure what was behind this vortex for the time being, he would put someone here to watch over it. Of course, he would set up a seal formation.
After that, the two of them did not stay here any longer. Just as they were about to leave, the two of them suddenly thought of something and looked at the whirlpool at the same time. However, when they saw that the whirlpool in the air was still motionless, the two of them looked at each other and nodded. They stood there quietly and waited.
This was because according to normal circumstances, this vortex had been spinning when they came in just now. Now that it was motionless, there was definitely a problem. However, the two of them didn't know why it was motionless.
After a long time, there was still no change in the vortex. Old Demon Ren thought for a while and said to Guo Yangming, "Why don't Old Man go in and take a look?"
"There's no need. Old Man has a puppet in his hands. There's no problem in going in and taking a look."
As soon as Guo Yangming finished speaking, a light flashed in his hand and a puppet made of wood appeared on the spot. Then, Guo Yangming made a gesture and spat out a mouthful of blood. He drew a few strokes in the air and a blood-colored rune appeared in front of him. Then, he inserted it into the wooden puppet. The reason why he spent so much effort to create this rune was to strengthen the close connection between Guo Yangming and the wooden puppet. This place had an extremely strong suppressive force on divine senses. In order to obtain information from the vortex as soon as possible, he had no choice but to use this method.
After watching the wooden puppet walk into the vortex, Guo Yangming closed his eyes. However, his eyes widened in an instant. This couldn't be blamed on him. It could only be said that the scene he saw was too shocking because their guesses just now were completely different from what they saw now. They thought of many possibilities just now, but the only thing they didn't expect was that there was actually a treasure trove behind this vortex!
Hiss ~!
Guo Yangming couldn't help but gasp when he saw the scene in front of his eyes. If it weren't for the fact that he had seen all kinds of rare treasures, he would have lost his mind long ago. Even so, it took him a lot of effort to force himself to calm down.
"What's wrong?
Why do you have such a reaction? Could it be that there's really something extraordinary inside?
Or is there another world behind this vortex?
Sigh, why do you have such an expression?! "
Seeing Guo Yangming's strange behavior, Old Demon Ren couldn't help but become curious. Then, he reached out and nudged Guo Yangming, who was in a daze, with a gossipy look on his face.
"Take a look for yourself!"
After saying that, Guo Yangming casually threw out a ball of blood. Seeing him like this, Old Demon Ren could only take a look for himself. However, when his divine senses entered the puppet's body and borrowed the puppet's vision, what appeared in his field of vision made Old Demon Ren extremely astonished.
"Old Man shouldn't be seeing things, right? Hehe, we have no choice but to strike it rich this time!" After saying that, Old Demon Ren's face lit up with joy.
"Things shouldn't be that simple. Old Man feels a little uneasy. Since that's the case, why don't we discuss what to do with the thing inside the vortex? Let's make things clear first. No matter what you do, Old Man will definitely not go in!" Guo Yangming's tone was very calm as he glanced at the delighted Old Demon Ren.
