Chapter 977 - 977 Baleful Aura Rising
977 Baleful Aura Rising
“What is the use of this Nether Crow Bone Eroding Arrow?”
Li Xiang pointed at the Nether Crow Bone Eroding Arrow and asked.
These arrows were relatively cheap on the market. He would not mind having too many war arrows.
“These arrows have speed as fast as lightning, and they are hard to see with the naked eye. They can directly injure the soul and corrode flesh and blood. If one were to be hit by the arrow, they will either die or sustain injuries.”
The Nether Bone Crow King explained quickly. Other than the lack of emotion in its tone, it was almost like an experienced sales master.
Needless to say, the power of this war arrow was so great that even the physical body of a body refining Transcendent could not withstand it. It was definitely a fatal weapon that could play a decisive role at a critical moment.
“King, there is a treasure here that can directly activate one’s talent.”
Zhou Qing’s eyes narrowed as he suddenly spoke.
He raised his head and saw rows of information about treasures flashing on the screen.
“The Fire Spirit Fruit has a chance of awakening a fire attribute talent. The exchange price is 300,000 souls.”
“Earth Spirit Fruit, there is a chance to awaken an earth attribute talent after consuming it. The exchange price is 300,000 souls.”
“Water Spirit Fruit, there is a chance to awaken a water attribute talent after consuming it. The exchange price is 300,000 souls.”
…
“Five Elements Spirit Fruit? The probability of this item activating talent shouldn’t be high.”
Li Xiang muttered to himself. Each of the five elemental talents had different possibilities. This item didn’t require the talent opening secret technique. In the future, it could even deduce the corresponding talent opening technique based on the talent in his body.
If that were the case, then it would be valuable.
“I already have the Gold God, Wood God, and Water God talents among the five elements. I only lack earth and fire. It just so happens that I can make up the talent of the five elements.”
Li Xiang thought to himself.
“As long as you have a soul, you can exchange for everything here.”
The Nether Bone Crow King bewitched again.
“Senior Nether Crow King, we’ve already entered this place. I wonder when we can leave the Godfiend Sinkhole?”
Li Xiang asked directly.
The Nether Bone Crow King continued to speak in a cold tone.
Before it finished speaking, a sheepskin contract appeared.
The contract was interwoven with countless dark and mysterious patterns. It was very exquisite.
Li Xiang read it carefully and even used his Probing skill to analyze the patterns to prevent getting scammed. On the front, it was written that the Nether Bone Crow Clan would bring Li Xiang and the others out of the Godfiend Sinkhole. Li Xiang and the others would have to pay a million souls, which would be collected by the Nether Bone Crow Clan. The souls of those who died in the hands of the Dawn Dynasty’s army would be collected by the Nether Bone Crow Clan until the number reached a million.
There was the mark of the Nether Crow Clan on it.
He quickly used his Probing skill to scan the contract. After scanning it from inside to outside, he did not find any loopholes. After hiding the terms, he nodded and signed his name on the contract. The contract burned in the air and turned into ashes. An invisible force naturally entered the bodies of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Dawn and the Nether Crow Clan.
The contract was established, and the heavenly Dao confirmed it.
“Tonight, you will be able to see the boundless baleful aura and fiendish corpses in the Godfiend Sinkhole. You will definitely feel lucky for your choice!”
The Nether Bone Crow King’s cold voice rang out in his mind. Then, it disappeared without a trace. It was just as strange as when it appeared, silent and without any warning.
“Rest here and take turns eating in two batches.” Li Xiang ordered.
The army had prepared military rations long ago. They were all stored in food boxes. The boxes could be kept warm and could be eaten once opened. They could also be stored for a long time. For this expedition, a large number of chefs in the logistics department had been busy preparing massive amounts of ingredients into military rations for a long time.
The rice was spiritual rice, and each portion was worth a lot.
The soldiers ate quickly and in batches.
Unknowingly, the night gradually darkened.
The Nether Bone Crows in Nether Crow City had disappeared at some point in time.
At this moment, a soldier climbed up the city wall and reported.
“Report, there’s an abnormality outside the city.”
Li Xiang and the others quickly climbed up the city wall and looked around.
With one look, his expression changed.
Under the night sky, gray gas was constantly spewing out from the ground as far as the eye could see. The speed was like a fountain.
The gas gathered together and filled the void like a tidal wave. It covered the sky and the ground, covering everything it could cover. This fog was clearly visible even in the dark.
And this was not fog, but a baleful aura.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sounds of weapons clashing could be heard from the baleful aura. The baleful aura was originally invisible, but now it was so dense that it could be seen with the naked eye. One could imagine how dense this baleful aura was. If they had not entered Nether Crow City and stayed outside the city, there was a possibility that they would have been wiped out.
This baleful aura was already so dense that it could take form.
However, when the fiendish corpses swept over and approached the Nether Crow City, it was stopped by a mysterious force. It could not get close to the city, nor could it corrupt anything inside.
“Go!”
Li Xiang looked at the dense baleful aura and his heart skipped a beat. He grabbed a few demonic wolves from the Tower of Stars and threw them out of Nether Crow City.
Awooo!
These demonic wolves were still leisurely hunting before. Suddenly, the environment changed. They were instantly afraid and turned around to run.
After entering the baleful aura, the demonic wolves immediately let out miserable cries. Wounds appeared out of thin air on their bodies. In the blink of an eye, the demonic wolves’ bodies had become a bloody mess as if they had been skinned. In the blink of an eye, they were torn into pieces by the dense baleful aura. All the flesh and blood on their bodies were scraped away and destroyed, leaving only a pile of ferocious white bones.
The white bones were still in the same position as when they were fleeing.
Moreover, the white bones immediately turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye. This baleful aura was corroding the bones.
In less than two breaths, these demonic wolves were turned into white bones on the spot.
Many soldiers on the city wall were shocked. Even if they were stronger than the demonic wolves, and also had protection from their armor, they would not be able to withstand such a baleful aura for long. They would also turn into bones quickly.
It had to be said that the Godfiend Sinkhole was indeed a land of death for living beings.
Shua!
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed through the thick fog.
One could vaguely see monsters covered in black fur shuttling across the ground.
These monsters were humanoid, but they were covered in black hair and had green eyes. Their auras were cold and bloodthirsty. They were not affected by the baleful aura at all. Not only were they not affected, but the baleful aura was also constantly being absorbed and refined by these figures.
“This is the fiendish corpse!”
Such fiendish corpses kept appearing as if they had smelled the scent of living people. They kept wandering around.
